NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 219 Zhan Zi, forget it

Amid laughter, Griffin received the referee's pass. The sweating White Monster looked solemn, took several consecutive shots, raised the ball, flicked his wrist, and the basketball flew out.

My board!The basketball seemed to be playing a joke on Griffin. It clearly fell into the basket but then popped out, and was caught by Chen Xiao who was well prepared.

Only James was left to catch the ball. Kobe leaned over but was still some distance away. Chen Xiao safely handed the ball to James.

Chen Xiao strode forward and reached the top of the arc in the frontcourt, just as Kobe was leaning down to prepare. Hey, Chen Xiao subconsciously prepared to imitate the cooperation with Wade in the previous rounds and stand next to Kobe.

James, who did not slow down when seeing the ball, also broke through, but the next second, Kobe, who was watching in all directions and listening in all directions, chose to grab the pick-and-roll, while Griffin pressed forward and delayed as usual.

Chen Xiao, who was following the trend, secretly laughed in his heart when he saw Griffin, who had learned nothing but chose to press forward. He immediately got the two points.

But Chen Xiao, who had just raised his hand to get the ball, looked sideways. James, who was dribbling with his left hand, did not choose to pass the ball, nor did he choose to bypass Griffin and break through from the weak side.

Instead, facing the two ghosts of Kobe and Griffin, he changed the direction with one hand and swung the ball into the crack of the door. He drilled into the crack of the door with a body bigger than the White Monster.

Chen Xiao stopped and the basketball rolled away. Behind the basketball, James, who was staggering forward, was chasing him.

Durant, who was guarding Melo at the elbow, was surprised. "James is passing the ball to himself." Durant leaned over to grab the ball before James, and the basketball rubbed against James who was bending forward. Passing by.

I go!

I go.

Cursing secretly in his mind, Chen Xiao, who stopped walking down the line and took one step inside the three-point line, became the closest defender.

Fortunately, we turned around in time, and there was no need to delay the start of the turn. Chen Xiao ran towards Durant without stopping. Durant would pick up the flying basketball and let Chen Xiao catch up.

Durant, who had already scored 30 points at this time, still belonged to the team. He had tasted the benefits of fast breaks in transition of ball rights several times before. This time Durant chose to give the ball to Griffin who had already passed the midline.

Durant picked up the ball and threw it, and White Monster, who had already moved one step inside the three-point line, caught the ball.

OJBK, Durant and Chen Xiao, who were already 2 steps behind, can still catch up. If Durant chooses to be selfish, Chen Xiao still has a chance to catch up. Now, almost from the center line to the three-point line, these 2 points have been It can be added to the Western Team.

But we still have to chase back. Maybe Griffin will smash the ball away?Chen Xiao did his duty and went back to defend.

"Blake~~Griffin!!" the DJ's passionate shout announced that the Eastern Basketball team had missed again.

Fuck, Chen Xiao, as the nearest defender, became a VIP spectator of the dunk show. Behind him, he watched Griffin throw the ball to the backboard and perform a self-throw and dunk, a powerful and heavy two-handed dunk.

The moment Griffin rose into the air, Durant, who also followed him to the basket, also raised his feet and jumped up with Griffin.

Griffin swung under the basket and landed, and the basketball flew directly to the baseline.

Together, we run forward, backward, and back again to serve the ball.Chen Xiao was helpless at the bottom line, waiting for the bald referee to receive the pass from the staff member who picked up the ball.

Well, at this time, the point guard James on the Eastern Conference court was very active in his job. He had already trotted back to the bottom line alone, followed by Kobe who never left his side.

Zhan Zi, can I still believe you?

Chen Xiao looked at the ball in his hand, the orange basketball that symbolized the Eastern Conference's hope of chasing points, and then looked at the "resolute" face under the white hairband. Well, at this moment, James came back to catch the ball in front of the basket. Wade, George, and Melo were separated. Even when positioned in the frontcourt, there are defenders guarding him in front of him.

James ran to the sideline, leaving Kobe behind. Chen Xiao, who had no choice, threw the ball steadily to James.

"Thum", "thum", "thum" The sound of heavy contact between the basketball and the backboard continued to sound. James took the ball and started from the baseline, carrying Kobe on his right shoulder and rushing to the basket along the sideline.

Come on, James, who weighs 270 pounds, stepped on the accelerator. Well, this speed is not fast. Chen Xiao, who rushed forward at normal speed after serving the ball in the middle, had an average impression.

Kobe's left arm was close to James' right shoulder, and he continued to use force to fight. James's left hand force movement was obvious, and the basketball "slammed" the floor rhythmically, but from the start to the three-point line and the start, he kept giving fuel. James, who exerted his strength, still failed to leave Kobe behind.

Until the start, Kobe was still attached to James' side like a plaster.

ah?Originally running at a normal speed, Chen Xiao watched James start and hurriedly accelerated to the basket to see if there was any chance of stealing the chicken. Question marks appeared on Chen Xiao's head.

"Beep" the referee's whistle sounded. It was not a foul by Kobe, but the basketball went out of bounds. The referee stopped the game and served again.

"Kobe Bryant, the second big blocker in the matchup, dribbled through James without getting rid of the defender at all, and forced a layup, but was blocked by Kobe." Commentator Ernie reported in a slightly dull tone.

"Hey!! Kobe blocked the ball again, and it's James who blocks the ball. Good shot, just defend like this." Zhang Weiping shouted, grinning from ear to ear.

What's even more frightening is that in the sight of Chen Xiao under the basket, the basketball that was blocked out of bounds seemed to change its trajectory in mid-air, and the possible variable was James' left hand that fell in the air and opened unintentionally.

Isn't it?The hat comes out, or the hat comes out of you.

Chen Xiao turned around and glanced at Kobe, who had his hands raised. He was so defensive, right? He was so heart-wrenching. In his sight, the bearded man was shouting anxiously at the referee, "LeBron touched our ball."

However, the moment the ball went out of bounds, the referee had already made a gesture for the ball in the frontcourt. Although the time was only 40 seconds, there was no replay of the All-Star Game. The ball still belonged to the Eastern Conference.

In 40 seconds, Griffin's self-throw and self-deduction led to an 8-point difference. This is going to be sent.In addition to the point difference and victory, the fans' scorching eyes are now fixed on Zhanko, who has "constant grievances" in this quarter. Since Kobe chose to fight against a strong team and lead the defense for the whole game, Zhanko scored 18 points in the first three quarters. James didn't get a single point, and Kobe repeatedly hit him on the emperor's head. Now he's getting hit in the face again. He can't fight back, right?
Well, it's not the first time. There are many people who want to fight back, but they still have to fight if they can't fight back.

Under the cheers and cheers of the audience, Wade took the ball from the sideline. James and Kobe were already entangled in front of him, and James got the ball with his back.

The half ended, and everyone consciously gave up half of the area to the two of them, standing on the other side in twos and threes and watching.

James, who was holding the ball with his back, seemed to be going to the end of the singles. Chen Xiao pushed away Griffin's little hand on his chest. This ball was a one-shot deal for James. Facing tens of millions of players, You can't pass the ball anymore with your eyes, right?
You Fenzi, don't reach out, let's take a look and it's over.Chen Xiao relaxed a little. As a "back-up" judge, no one knows about back-up better than me (except so-and-so), and started judging and scoring.

James takes the ball with his back, eh, eh?This step is not very clean.

Hit twice on the back, push forward a step, and suddenly turn around. This small combo shows that he usually put some effort into it.

He turned around and gained half a position, swatted with his left hand, jumped with the ball, feinted under the basket and then strengthened.

"Beep" James successfully hit the back and got a foul. It was regarded as an Answer Ball. It depends on the free throw.

However, James, who caused the foul, looked solemn and showed no joy. On the contrary, Kobe, who was pushed away and received the foul, was smiling with a silly smile on his face.Kobe is so happy.

"This is a starting move." Griffin's angry murmur reached Chen Xiao's ears.

Hey, what are you questioning?Very dangerous.

As a judge, Chen Xiao chose to watch the replay.

When James walked to the free throw line, the large polyhedron screen above his head began to replay the two attacks before and after this round, starting with James' long-distance run.

Regardless of whether James, who started the ball with one hand inside the three-point line, walked or not, after all, this is not Chen Xiao's review scope, but at the last moment, the basketball was indeed opened by James, who was passive in his movement after falling in the air, and his hand was opened, changing the trajectory of the ball.

It seems that West James' complaint is justified.

The replay that caused Kobe's foul was relatively simple, with no close-ups, but Chen Xiao, who has excellent eyesight, still captured every step clearly.

James, who is holding the ball with his back, does not move his left foot and opens his right foot. Obviously, his left hand is the supporting foot and the pivot foot. The next movement is to lean down to release the ball. He moves his right foot one step, then takes a step with his left foot, moving the pivot foot very much. Obviously, the basketball was put down from his hands in the next second.

Griffin's doubts were confirmed to be true.

James walked to the free throw line, and the fans who had just watched the ball carefully and watched the replay began to speak passionately:

"If the referee just blew the whistle in time, I wouldn't dare think about it. Is this going to ruin this 24vs6? You won't give me a chance to fight back, right? #doge"

"Two shots and one double attack to steal the ball. I am ready to defend the whole court. Thank you, James, for letting me, the boss of Kemi, see the full defense."

"Thank you, James, for stopping the Eastern Conference's pursuit of points. This is the rhythm that we will continue to win."

"Thank you, Emperor James. Don't thank me upstairs. My accuracy of 20+15 is not 30 points worse than yours."

"Thank you... Thanks for the hammer. Chen Xiao and Wade worked well together. They made consecutive dunks and the point difference has reached 6 points. Now it is 34 points in 8 seconds. Even if all free throws are made, there are still 6 points. It's over. .”

"The last time James didn't suffer when he faced Kobe Bryant, he was also facing Kobe Griffin. That time James lobbed Chen Xiao and passed the assist in seconds. Tsk tsk, the last ball could have been lobbed directly, but he insisted on drilling it. The gap in the door, the ball dropped, allowing Durant to show his high spirit."

……

"Shua" made the first free throw, and James scored for the first time in the final quarter.

"19 points, 7/18, 3 rebounds, 5 assists. This is James' current score sheet for this game. In the East, Chen Xiao, James, and Anthony all scored 19 points." Ernie reported.

James took his second free throw, and his body shaking slightly when he took the shot was caught in the eyes of the players on the sideline of the paint area.

Chen Xiao and Anthony, the top two rebounders in the Eastern Conference in this game, ejected. Anthony pushed Durant away and flew up in front of Harden. He was bound to get the offensive rebound.

The basketball hit the front basket, and instead of falling close to the basket as Anthony expected, it bounced back up again, with a sharp arc, past Anthony's outstretched hands.

With his hands very close to the basket, Anthony dunked with both hands. Can't he dunk without the ball?Hanging on the basket relieves a wave of embarrassment.

The next moment, there was wind whistling behind his head, and the hair on his neck stood on end. Anthony jumped from the basket.

"Bang" This time the basket welcomed his good partner, and the basketball was slammed into the basket by a pair of big hands.

"Shen~~~Howl!!!! Slam it with both hands!" The strange and long-drawn tune played again in the Toyota Center Arena.

After grabbing the offensive rebound, Chen Xiao raised his hands with both hands. There was no enemy under the basket, and he dunked the ball with great force, adding another 2 points to the Eastern Conference's offensive round.

"It has to be Chen Xiao. After three quarters, Chen Xiao scored 12 points. In this quarter, he has scored 9 points. Except for one extra penalty, they were all dunks. Turning the tide when it is falling, holding up the building that is about to collapse, this Eastern Conference The festival all depends on me."

"This ball was scored. The Eastern Conference has 137 points. It is still 5 points behind the Western Conference. It's 33 points in 5 seconds. Is there still a chance?"

"If James doesn't fight, he still has a chance. If he gets blocked and walks, if he does it again, the Eastern Conference will be completely cool."

"Nonsense, this is a perfect knock to the basket, can ordinary people make a free throw? This is all a calculation. In order to get 3 points in this round, James deliberately made this subtle free throw with a trembling body. How can you allow you to make a big fuss here? Nonsense."

".OK"

".Reasonable"

……

Hanging his hands on the basket, Chen Xiao watched the basketball fall from a high position. Anthony, who had turned around hastily at the basket, was looking up at him, while a tall and thin man flashed past on the other side.

No, Chen Xiao immediately took off his hands. As soon as his feet touched the floor, he stepped on the floor with his sneakers, turned his hips and twisted his knees, and the sneakers made a squeaking sound against the floor.

Chen Xiao turned around and chased back. The White Monster or "Griffin", this nickname may be more suitable for Griffin. He was already sprinting in front, and he was inferior in grabbing rebounds. Chen Xiao failed to protect the rebound, but he made a fast break and hit the basket. Basket, Griffin's eyes were already on fire, waiting to soar.

Chen Xiao, who quickly chased back, had Griffin in front of him on the left and two James on the right.

One dribbles and runs, the other walks.

James Harden took two steps with the ball, adjusted, stepped on the LOGO and threw the ball. Naturally, he was not playing LOGO shooting at the critical moment.

The basketball drew a beautiful parabola and began to fall two meters in front of Chen Xiao. The position was just right. The "Griffin" took off with both feet on the ground. Chen Xiao, who ran back but had no time to take off to intercept, could only follow Griffin's original path. The breakthrough route passed by in a flash.

Chen Xiao, who stopped his inertia and faced the bottom line, saw that the media personnel and fans in front of him looked regretful. At the same time, the whole audience erupted like a volcano, and screams of "oh" and "oh" sounded with regret.

Sijan, who has moved from the sixth man to the master this season, passes the ball accurately and just right; the "Griffin" takes off at a high enough height, with beautiful bulging muscle lines and a full sense of power.

But the "Griffin"'s messy hands failed to grasp the basketball in mid-air, and he dunked it toward the basket, causing the basketball to fly forward and out of the baseline.

Foul ball.
