against the front

Chapter 197 Lore
"Paul, catch the ball!"

After Rick Carlisle arranged the tactics for the last shot, Yan Hua walked directly to the sidelines. After the players from both sides stood in their respective positions, Yan Hua took the basketball from the referee and stood in order to confuse him. Kevin Garnett in front of him, Yan Hua holding the basketball up in both hands, has been staring at where Pau Gasol is standing, and while serving the ball, he also used a very loud voice towards Pau Gasol. Er yelled.

After Yan Hua yelled, Paul Gasol, who was going to sprint two steps into the paint area and then turned back, was stunned. Although he complained in his heart that Yan Hua did not follow the coach's arrangement, Paul -Pau Gasol still gave up the original arrangement, stayed where he was, and stretched out his hands, ready to catch the basketball passed by Yan Hua.

But to Pau Gasol's surprise and helplessness, Yan Hua held the basketball high, looked in his direction, and yelled for him to catch the ball, but this guy suddenly changed his mind at the moment of passing the ball. He changed the direction of the pass and passed the basketball to Jason Kidd, who was running forward and backward towards the middle circle.

With the same mentality as Paul Gasol, there is also Kevin Garnett who is defending Yan Hua. Kevin Garnett, who was standing in front of Yan Hua just now, saw Yan Hua turn around, And after shouting Pau Gasol's name loudly, Kevin Garnett also thought that Yan Hua would pass the basketball directly to Pau Gasol, but when Kevin Garnett made an interference After the action, Yan Hua suddenly adjusted his body posture and changed the direction of the pass at the moment of passing the ball. Looking at Yan Hua who was still smiling at himself after cheating himself, Kevin Garnett faced Yan Hua scolded: "Little bastard!"

According to the coach's arrangement, Jason Kidd, who was running back towards the middle circle, quickly stopped after receiving Yan Hua's pass and began to move towards the weak side of the court.

Jason Kidd, who was moving with the ball, carefully observed the positions of all Eastern players on the field. Sure enough, as Rick Carlisle said during the timeout just now, most of the defensive attention of the Eastern All-Stars was focused. It's on Yan Hua and Carmelo Anthony.

Looking up at the timer, when the time displayed on the timer was less than 3 seconds, Jason Kidd, who happened to be on a parallel line with Pau Gasol, continued to take a big step forward. One step, followed by an emergency stop, and the basketball in his hand was thrown directly to Pau Gasol.

"Not good!" Standing on the sidelines, Stan Van Gundy saw Jason Kidd rushing forward with the ball. He did not choose to break through by himself, nor did he pass the basketball to Yan Hua or Carmelo Anthony. After passing Pau Gasol near the free throw line, he subconsciously yelled bad.

In Stan Van Gundy's prediction, the Western Conference All-Star team will make the final shot either by Yan Hua, Carmelo Anthony, or Kevin Durant. After all, these three players are among the Western Conference All-Stars. The players with the most points and the best touch at this stage.

In an arena where there are no double-teams and no all-stars around the front, it is definitely the best choice for the player with the strongest singles ability and the highest singles efficiency to execute the last shot, but it is beyond Stan Van Gundy's expectation. , Rick Carlisle actually chose Paul Gasol to execute the last shot.

As a head coach, he is very sensitive to anything that is beyond his expectations, so the moment Pau Gasol received a pass from Jason Kidd, Stan Van Gundy clenched his fists, He muttered words, as if he was praying that Pau Gasol's shot went wrong.

As for Pau Gasol on the court, although he was calm when he received the basketball and adjusted his shooting posture, Pau Gasol was still a little bit excited in his heart. This is the All-Star game, if you can hit a lore in a game of this level, you can definitely boast for a lifetime.

When Chris Bosh, who was defending Paul Gasol, jumped up and wanted to interfere with Paul Gasol's shooting, Paul Gasol, who had already adjusted his shooting posture, took his hand without hesitation. The basketball was thrown out. Although Pau Gasol did not jump high when he took the shot, Pau Gasol's height of 2 meters and wingspan of 13 meters made him jump over. Chris Bosh can only look at the ball and sigh.

Just when all the players on and off the court, as well as the 10,000+ spectators at the scene, all focused their attention on the basketball thrown by Pau Gasol. Reese Bosh was completely blocked by Paul Gasol, but his heart skipped a beat, and then a sense of foreboding came to his mind, whether the shot basketball would go in or not, the person who shot it definitely had a premonition .

With a bang, the basketball thrown by Pau Gasol hit the front of the basket.

"Okay!" Stan Van Gundy, who was staring at the basketball tightly, almost jumped up excitedly after seeing the basketball hit the front of the basket. Paul Gasol missed the lore, and the Eastern All-Star Victory is in sight, but Stan Van Gundy's excitement lasted for a moment, and the expression on his face froze, because Stan Van Gundy thought of Yan Hua who was under the basket!
Almost at the moment when Pau Gasol missed a shot, Yan Hua, who was fighting for position with Kevin Garnett at the basket, jumped into the air before Kevin Garnett, and grabbed The basketball that bounced off the front of the rim smashed hard into the rim.

"Lore! Lore! Yan Hua, who grabbed the offensive rebound, dunked the lore!" After a loud bang, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley on the sidelines commented almost simultaneously from their seats. He stood up, waved his arms with a ferocious face, and shouted loudly.

At the same time, on the sidelines bench, all the Western All-Stars jumped up from their seats, waved the towels in their hands, and rushed to the side of the court, and Arlington, which can accommodate 10,000+ people The Cowboys Stadium, like an explosion, erupted in an instant with extremely violent cheers and shouts.

"Hey, Emma, ​​this guy is really a hero." In a certain box of the Arlington Cowboys Stadium, a group of movie stars and ladies who were watching the game, after Yan Hua dunked the lore, they all lay down in the box On the railing, they applauded and cheered towards the arena.

"I think so!"
