I really can't handle the ball

Chapter 200 It's just an exhibition match, you guys are really fighting!
January 2, Los Angeles, Staples Center Arena.

At this time, the inside and outside of the arena were surrounded, and a large number of fans who failed to buy tickets could only participate in the basketball carnival outside the arena, but they could still watch the upcoming rookie challenge on the big screen.

This year's rookie game can be regarded as star-studded. Many new stars have performed well and fulfilled their talents. There is a high probability that they will become All-Star players in the future.

Therefore, the audience in the front row is full of stars, not only Hollywood stars, but also celebrities from all walks of life. In the VIP box, there are even NBA famous seniors.

In addition, NBA stars Kobe, Garnett, Duncan and others participating in tomorrow's All-Star Game also came to watch the game.

"Kevin, I didn't expect you to come to watch the game live."

"I'm just bored in the hotel, watching the game to pass the time." Garnett quibbled.

He didn't want to admit that he came to see that kid's game specially.

"Kobe, what about you?"

"Haha, this is my territory, I won't miss any games."

Kobe and Garnett chatted one after another, waiting for the game to start.

At the same time, first-year head coach Dwayne Casey pushed open the door of the locker room and was stunned when he saw the players gathered to discuss tactics.

"Sure enough, they are a group of boys who have never seen the world, and they are so nervous in a rookie game."

He came back to his senses, clapped his hands, and said, "Boys, don't be so nervous, just treat it as an exhibition match and enjoy the match."

"Mr. Devine, only by winning the game can we enjoy the fun of the game, so we must win the game first." James said first.

Casey was a little surprised, thinking that the thorn in Li Xuan would stand up and refute him, but he didn't expect it to be Mr. Perfect, James.

Then he said: "Do you want to win the game? But the second-year team is not weak!"

In his impression, the previous rookie games were basically won by the second-year team, and it was difficult for the first-year team to win.

"You don't need to worry about that. We have formulated our tactics and will play this game in our own way." James replied in a discussing tone.

Casey understood, co-authoring has nothing to do with him, just acting as a tool.

Anyway, as the head coach, he doesn't have any real power. If he uses this opportunity to make friends with this group of future stars, he may not be able to mix in the league in the future.

So, Casey nodded and said: "I will not interfere with you, and I don't care how you want to fight, but there is one thing that cannot be surpassed, that is, don't provoke right and wrong, and you can fight as you want."

After James and others saw the head coach agreeing, they smiled happily, assured Casey that there would be no extra problems, and then continued to discuss offensive and defensive tactics.

Not long after, under the leadership of head coach Casey, Li Xuan and others left the locker room, entered the player tunnel, and prepared to go on stage.

At the same time, the lights on the scene suddenly dimmed, and two beams of lights shone on the two player channels respectively.

The fans knew that the protagonists of this game were about to appear, and there was deafening cheers and shouts in an instant.

Since it is an All-Star Rookie Game, all players, whether they are starters or substitutes, have an introduction ceremony.

First up was the first-year team. Every player was introduced in great detail and enjoyed the treatment that can only be enjoyed by a star.

"The players who will play next are from the Dallas Mavericks. Let's give warm applause to welcome the king of kills, Li~xuan!" The DJ shouted loudly.

When Li Xuan ran out of the player tunnel for the finale, the cheers in the audience suddenly rose, and the enthusiastic atmosphere on the scene reached its peak.

Then it was the turn of the second-year players to play, and they were still introduced in detail by the on-site DJ.

For the second-year team, Dayao played as the finale, and also received a lot of applause and cheers.

"Hahaha, the All-Star rookie game has turned into a China Derby. Li Xuan is still very popular in Los Angeles!" Director Zhang felt the warm atmosphere of the scene in the media area.

"Li Xuan participated in the All-Star Weekend for the first time, and I saw that his mental outlook is quite good, and he should be able to display his own strength." Yu Jia on the side echoed.

Since both Li Xuan and Dayao were selected for this year's All-Star, the Sports Channel attached great importance to it, and specially sent a professional team to the live broadcast.

After the entrance ceremony, the players from both sides went to the field one after another for pre-match warm-up activities.

In order to attract the attention of the fans and increase their attention, James and others performed a few dunks, which aroused the applause of the fans.

Seeing this situation, the second-year players were not willing to steal the limelight from the first-year kid, and also performed dunks.

Li Xuan didn't join in the fun, and low-key shot a few three-pointers, looking for his touch.

At this time, Wade ran to Li Xuan and said, "Dude, why don't you show it off?"

"I'm not interested. I can dunk at any time during the game." Li Xuan responded, and then threw the basketball in his hand.

Wade was speechless for a while, and this guy pretended to beep invisible.

"Brother, I read yesterday's interview report. As expected of my brother, it's too good for me." Wade said gratefully.

"Dude, don't get too excited, I'm just talking, and it depends on your own performance on the court."

"I'm very confident in myself. When the time comes, I'll pass the ball to you, and you help me collect assists. The data will gradually increase. I don't want to win the MVP."

Li Xuan saw Wade's confident look, but he didn't know where his confidence came from.

"Well then, don't blame me if you don't get it by then." Li Xuan also thought about it, if he can't get it, then help Wade get it, and can't make it cheaper for others.

"Then it's settled. If I can't get it, I'll get it for you." Wade replied.

After the PY transaction between the two, the warm-up activities continued.

After 15 minutes, the warm-up activities ended, and players from both sides returned to the bench one after another.

The starting player lists of both sides are displayed on the big screen at the scene.

First-year team starting lineup: Wade, Anthony, James, Li Xuan, Bosh.

The starting lineup of the second-year team: Jay Williams, Ginobili, Prince, Stoudemire, Dayao.

Not long after, the referee blew his whistle to signal the starting players of both sides to come to the middle circle to prepare for a jump ball.

Li Xuan took Wade and others to the middle circle to stand up and wait for the ball.

The referee looked at the timer, then tossed the ball into the air amid the cheers of the fans.

Dayao overwhelmed Bosh to touch the basketball first, dialed it back, and got the first chance for the second-year team to attack.

Williams dribbles forward, comes to the top of the arc, and prepares to attack himself.

Originally, the rookie game was an exhibition game. If you don't attack by yourself with the ball, pass the ball out, think him stupid!
So, Williams made a front change and then broke through to the inside.

Although the defense in the rookie game will not be as serious as usual, but it is too real to want to get past Wade.

Williams failed to get rid of Wade and could only make an emergency stop and take off to shoot.

With a bang, strike with anger!
Bosh blocked Dayao, and Li Xuan retreated to the basket and successfully pulled down the rebound.

After landing, Li Xuan vigorously threw the ball forward.

Although the pass is a bit high, it shouldn't be a problem with James' physical fitness.

James, who had already made a fast break, saw the basketball flying towards him, and immediately jumped up to catch it.

He originally thought that Li Xuan would not play according to tactics, after all everyone wants to show their ability on such a big stage.

"Li is a good person, worthy of deep friendship." James recognized Li Xuan in his heart.

After landing, James dribbled a bit, immediately took three steps, came to the penalty area and soared into the air, smashing the ball into the basket with one hand.

There was thunderous applause in the auditorium, and cheers and shouts resounded through the arena.

The possession of the ball is switched, and the second-year team attacks.

This time Williams dribbled the ball across half court and immediately passed it out.

This is a global live broadcast, and he doesn't want to be labeled as a cancer.

After receiving the pass, Ginobili pulled up directly and shot a three-pointer.

Anthony just made a gesture, extending his arm to interfere.

He is very familiar with this kind of defense and doesn't feel uncomfortable.

The basketball knocked out of the frame and missed.

The second-year team hit the iron again, this time the basketball went a little far, Wade grabbed the backcourt rebound smartly, and then quickly advanced to the frontcourt.

Players from other first-year teams also rushed to the second-year half at the fastest speed.

The second-year players haven't reacted yet, and it's too late to catch up.

Wade rushed into the penalty area first, turned his head to look behind him, smashed the ball on the backboard, turned and left gracefully.

Li Xuan, who followed up, soared into the air, grabbed the basketball in the air, and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand.

"Hahaha, as soon as the first grade came up, there were two explosive dunks. This year's rookie competition seems to be a slam dunk contest!" Director Zhang explained with a smile.

If the players of the second-year team heard Zhang's guiding words, they would definitely shout for injustice.

The ball just now was really not because they were lax in defense, they didn't react at all, and they forgot to chase.

After being scored two goals in a row by the first graders, the second graders didn't panic, they just led by 4 points and recovered in minutes.

In this attack, the second grade still chose individual singles, and Stoudemire played Li Xuan in the low post.

Dayao near the penalty area saw this and took Bosh away from the penalty area to make room.

At this time, Dayao was also very depressed. With such a huge inside advantage, it was enough to hand the ball to him. As for playing so tired?
After receiving the ball, Stoudemire pushed Li Xuan with his back. He thought he could push Li Xuan away, then turned around and came to the basket for a dunk.

But what he didn't expect was that he couldn't push Li Xuan away, and he felt a huge thrust behind him.

"Fuck! This guy can't really defend himself!"

Stoudemire didn't think too much about it, and directly pushed back with all his strength, but he couldn't squeeze Li Xuan away.

"Hahaha, Stoudemire really looks like him. If it wasn't for the rookie game, I would have thought the two of them were really having a physical confrontation." Director Zhang said with a smile.

At this time, Stoudemire, who was flushed with anger, turned over and shot a jumper.

Seeing this, Li Xuan didn't rush to interfere, but just straightened his arms to interfere. After all, it was a rookie competition, so he couldn't do too much.

Bang bang!Fight with anger!
Li Xuan turned around and grabbed the rebound. After landing, he saw Stoudemire jumping up to grab the rebound, and immediately passed the ball to Bosh not far away.

"Dragon King" received the pass, immediately implemented tactics, and threw the ball forward.

A group of NBA stars in the front row audience saw this scene and thought of the fear of being dominated by the Mavericks.

"Isn't this shit the Mavericks' bombardment tactic!"

"It seems to be playing faster than the Mavericks. How many people on the field can really run!"

Nash and Nowitzki on the side were embarrassed when they heard such words.

They both wanted to say that not all players were as against the sky as those monsters.

On the court, after receiving the ball, Wade quickly rushed to the basket, encountered Williams who returned to the defense, and immediately threw the ball into the air.

James, who came from behind, took off with one foot and grabbed the basketball in the air, and dunked the ball vigorously into the basket with one hand.

6: 0!

"It's really a slam dunk contest. The first-year team's three points all came from slam dunks. Although it was a rookie game, the second-year team's defense was too loose, so we need to be careful!" Director Zhang commented.

In the next round, in order to score as soon as possible, the second-year team handed over the ball to the most certain point.

After Yao received the pass in the low post, he pushed Bosh back, then turned around and made a hook.

6: 2!

"Hahaha, Dayao still has to score. If you play inside earlier, you won't have so much trouble." Director Zhang explained with a smile.

On the court, Wade dribbled forward without rushing, observing the position of his teammates, and suddenly saw a familiar figure rushing out, and immediately passed the ball.

Li Xuan ran beyond the three-point line just in time to receive the pass, immediately pulled up, and shot a three-pointer.

Stoudemire, who was chasing after him, rushed over, and it was too late to interfere.

This time he was defending seriously, but he was still freed by Li Xuan's counter-run, and he was very unwilling.

Swish!Hollow into the net!

9: 2!

After the goal, Li Xuan ran up to celebrate with Wade high-five.

"The transmission is good, and the craftsmanship has not been dropped."

"Of course, we are a perfect partner."

After the two touted each other, they retreated quickly.

In the next round, the second-year team started to run tactically, and didn't want to be overwhelmed by the first-year group of brats.

Ginobili makes a quick off-ball move, cuts toward the basket, and prepares for a layup after receiving a pass.

At this time, the basket has been completely emptied, and scoring is easy.

At this moment, a long arm emerged from Ginobili's head and slapped the rising basketball on the backboard.

"Beautiful! Li Xuan's defensive speed is very fast, and he rushed to the basket in an instant, nailing Ginobili's layup." Director Zhang explained excitedly.

The game has that taste, it is not a static exhibition game.

After Li Xuan successfully blocked the shot, he grabbed the rebound, and after landing, he quickly flicked the ball forward.

James, who just ran across the center line, received the pass, quickly dribbled forward, and after reaching beyond the three-point line, he directly started to break through to the basket.

Prince, who returned to defense, wanted to step forward to block, but was ruthlessly crushed by James' "tank breakthrough", and was squeezed away one meter away.

After James broke through to the basket, he stood up and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands.

11: 2!

The head coach of the second-year team, Lawrence Frank, saw that the situation was not right, and immediately requested a timeout to allow the players to come back and adjust.

"This class of rookies is so unruly, and Dwyane doesn't care."

At this time, Casey, the head coach of the first-year team, sat firmly on the Diaoyutai. He couldn't control it if he wanted to, so he let the players play freely.
