Rebirth of Yidi Legend

Chapter 714 All-Star First Day

Speaking of which, before the voting session came out, the NBA officially announced that it had adjusted the rules of the All-Star Game.

The challenge competition is the Shooting Star Contest, Skills Challenge, Three-Point Shootout Contest and Slam Dunk Contest. These competitions will be changed from the previous players fighting individually to the way that the east and the west will form teams to participate.

Each team will set up a captain, and the two sides will compare by calculating the total score of the four challenge events. The side with the higher score will become the champion of the 2013 All-Star Challenge Night and win a charity worth 35 US dollars Fund control.

Obviously, the new rules will greatly increase the competitiveness of these four competitions, because each competition will have an impact on the overall score.

This is why some new highlights are added to the All-Stars.

Speaking of which, the All-Star Game does need to add some new gimmicks these years. After all, the slam dunk contest is not as eye-catching as it used to be.

This also makes the All-Star season lack some highlights!
Therefore, although such a reform will not bring any changes to every event, the final result will definitely make every event full of competition because it can affect the control of charity funds worth 35 yuan.

Of course, these reforms won't generate so much heat until the list of the Skills Challenge comes out.

Fans are also full of attention to this event after seeing Yi Jianlian's announcement to participate in the Skills Challenge!
On February 2, the NBA officially announced the official list of six players participating in the 8 All-Star Game Skills Challenge.In addition to Yi Jianlian, Jeremy Lin of the Rockets, Brandon Knight of the Pistons, Jeff Teague of the Hawks, Lillard of the Trail Blazers and Parker of the Spurs were all selected.

Among the 6-man roster, Parker of the Spurs was the champion of the Skills Challenge in 2012. At that time, he defeated Wall, Rondo, Deron Williams, Owen and Westbrook and many other players, and won the championship strongly.

However, the appearance of Yi Jianlian this year has made many people hope that he can win the final championship. After all, as long as Yi Jianlian wins the championship this year, he will become the first champion in NBA history to win the skill challenge championship, three-point shooting champion, and dunk champion. guy.

Yi Jianlian shows his versatility all the time.

……

There is one thing to say, when the All-Star Game is held in New York or Los Angeles, the impact on the entire United States is also very different.

For example, this year's All-Star Game was held in New York, and the audience can be said to be full of big names. Scarlett and other Hollywood actresses competed in the most eye-catching places on the sidelines, while Hollywood stars like Jason Statham The ultra-popular star also appeared on the sidelines of this All-Star Weekend.

If it were really a matter of changing the group of guys who stood at the All-Star Convention, people would believe it at the awards ceremony in Hollywood!

Although the competition system has been changed, the entire All-Star process is still the same.

The Masters Tournament is still the first.

One thing to say, this year's Masters also has a lot of stars. It is worth mentioning that the [-]-meter champion Bolt participated in this year's Masters.

He was arranged to make his third appearance in the Eastern team. The [-]-meter king who appeared at the All-Star Weekend was a little bit reluctant. His movements were not as relaxed and comfortable as on the track and field. month" action.After that, Hutcherson, Elliott, Bowen, Caches and others appeared in the Eastern Conference.

It is also worth mentioning that the head coaches of this year's Eastern and Western Celebrities are two brothers, James Harden and Westbrook.

Westbrook brought his sense of fashion to the court, sporting a yellow suit and exaggerated glasses.

There are only two former NBA star players in the West, one is Mutombo, and the other is the "glider" Drexler.

In addition to them, there are 2012 Masters MVP actor Hart in the West and WNBA MVP Moore.

Like the NBA, the Masters game is also divided into four quarters, but each quarter lasts only 10 minutes.

Although they all warmed up before the game, among these players, the professional players have not played for many years, and the non-professional guys, in addition to lack of professional training, this also makes the shooting percentage of the two teams after the start of the game Neither are high.

Although Mutombo has an absolute height, considering that it is the Masters, he is more drawn to the outside to attack.

But Mutombo went out of the three-point line, which is no different from a human pillar!
After 5 minutes of the game, only the West team scored 4 points, which shows how bad the two teams are!

However, after that, the Eastern team began to exert their strength. Hutcherson hit a 3-pointer on the board, Bowen also made a goal, and the Eastern team took the lead.

But the Western Conference quickly responded with 4 points to regain the lead, and Bolt later staged a dunk on a fast break, which caused cheers from the crowd.

The popularity of the [-]-meter king is beyond doubt!

But in the end, the West team maintained the advantage and ended the first quarter with a 16-9 lead.

In the second quarter, the offense of the Middle East team still did not improve much. Only Hutcherson made another three-pointer, but the West team expanded their advantage under the leadership of Hart and others.

More than 1 minute and 50 seconds before halftime, the Eastern team had a fast break opportunity, and the teammates wanted to complete an alley-oop cooperation for Bolt, but unfortunately Bolt failed to dunk the ball, and some sighs sounded on the scene.

In the previous warm-up, Bolt actually completed a dunk, so everyone wants to see his dunk!

The Western team scored 4 points in a row to extend the advantage to 11 points. Kaches made a layup, and the Eastern team fell behind 17-26.The Western team scored 4 points in a row, Hutcherson made a layup from the bottom line, and the Eastern team fell behind 19-30 at halftime.

Jenkins of the Western team scored 9 points in the first half, Komon scored 6 points, and Hart scored 5 points; Hutcherson of the Eastern team scored 8 points, Kaches 4 points, and Bolt 2 points.

The two teams increased their points alternately in the third quarter, and the West team still maintained a double-digit advantage. Bolt once wanted to grab an offensive rebound in front of Mutombo, but Uncle Mu had a clear advantage in height. He just stood up and raised his arms. Take off the backboard.Kaches received a pass from Bolt and scored a layup to narrow the gap. Moore responded quickly. She made a layup before the end of this section, and the West ended the third quarter with a 41-26 lead.

More than two minutes into the last quarter, the West team got a fast break opportunity. Drexler, who was obviously fat, scored a layup with three slow steps, but this still attracted cheers from the scene. The West team won 45-28 leading.The Eastern team used free throws to recover 1 point, Hart and Duncan teamed up for 5 points, and the Western team led 4-25 by 50 points at 29 minutes and 21 seconds before the whistle.The large score behind made the Eastern team unable to counterattack. The players on both sides were more of a show on the court, and Hart became the focus off the court. In the end, the Western team won 58-38.

This allowed the West to take the lead in points first.

……

After the master game, there is a rookie game!
Yi Jianlian is the head coach of the East in this rookie game.

When he picked up the tactical board to draw tactics for the players before the game, it caused a lot of laughter on the scene. This is probably a rare situation in the NBA where "the coach is better than the players on the field".

Will there be a "look, I'll tell you how to play this ball" situation later?
The No. 2011 star of the Yi Jianlian team is naturally the No. 23.5 pick in 5.5, Irving. The core of the Cavaliers can now score [-] points and [-] assists per game. vulgar.

From Yi Jianlian's point of view, this guy can be regarded as the current league, and he can even sort out the guys who can dribble in the entire history of the league, and he can also be the leader in ball control and dribbling!

It is worth mentioning that in the 2012 rookie game, Irving scored 8 points on all 34 three-pointers and was elected MVP.

This also makes many people optimistic that he can win the rookie game MVP in this year's rookie game!

However, Irving was also selected for the All-Star Game this year, also because he wants to participate in the All-Star Game, so how long he will play in the rookie game is a question.

If Irving has reservations in the rookie game, Lillard, the most popular candidate for rookie king, will become the number one star of the O'Neal team. This rookie is not as elegant as Irving, but has a "big heart" in all aspects of technology.

At the same time, his ranking is not high, but his overall performance ranks in the top two among the current rookies in the 2012 draft.

The first is undoubtedly Anthony Davis. Even if he comes to the NBA, no one can stop his talent visible to the naked eye!

From the first season, he showed the potential to become a super insider in the future.

This game is the same as last season. The rookie team in the Western Conference took the lead. Anthony Davis showed good coping ability from the beginning, sending a wonderful pass near the top of the arc, and the rookie Leonard of the Spurs dunked in a relay The first to get two points.

Thomas, who played at home, hit back with a layup and scored two points for the East.

Although they are all rookies, everyone knows what the significance of the rookie game is, and it is necessary to use continuous offense to make the audience shout.

So the two teams basically have no defense when you come and I go!
Anthony Davis even played a three-pointer, but it was a pity that the first three-pointer was not made.

Nuggets star Faried scored two goals in a row to give the West an 8-point lead.Owen led the Eastern team to score 5 points to narrow the gap.Rubio showed his passing talent and sent two assists in a row, and Faried received a wonderful pass from the "Golden Boy" and scored two goals in a row, which kept the West team ahead.

At this time, Yi Jianlian finally showed his presence, called a timeout, said a few words, changed two players, and the game resumed.

It's just that the western troops became more and more courageous as they fought, and they continuously bombed the eastern troops with aerial slam dunks combined with long-range artillery shells.

Fortunately, at this time, Isaiah Thomas made consecutive three-pointers, helping the Eastern Conference to narrow the gap.

It's just that the offensive firepower of the West team was too strong, and after Thomas fell silent, they began to expand their lead. The difference between the two teams reached 17 points at one point.

However, the large score behind did not affect the enthusiasm of the Eastern team at all. Kemba Walker threw the ball on the backboard in a fast break, and Waiters followed up with a volley to catch the ball and dunk it to get a lot of applause.

It is worth mentioning that the game was still undefended. The Eastern team, which was far behind by the opponent, did not have a sense of urgency at all because they were too far behind. Their basket was wide open and the Western team took the frontcourt twice in a row Rebounds completed a slam dunk, and the point difference broke through the 20-point mark.

In the following time, the game gradually became a slam dunk performance for the two teams. Lillard assisted Nicholson for a dunk, and Parsons threw a pass to assist Leonard in the counterattack.Irving and his teammate Thompson made a wonderful pass and dunked and cheered. Bill received a pass from Rubio and scored two points. In the end, the Western team led the Eastern team by 90 points 66-23 and ended the first half.

The second half restarted, and Irving was good at releasing firepower for three-point breakthroughs, but Faried of the Western team still scored consecutive points with hot hands to maintain a 20+ lead.

Anthony Davis showed his physical talent, "Big Eyebrows" received a pass from Rubio at the basket and flew up like a spring, spreading his long arms and smashing the ball into the basket. Looking up at the No. 2012 Scholar Lang in [-] with the eyes of aliens, this amazing talent is too explosive!

But Anthony Davis, who completed the dunk, was expressionless and quite calm.

After a while of confrontation, the slam dunk contest continued, also because the rookie game was full of various dunks, which made Barkley joked: "The guys who will participate in the slam dunk contest tomorrow may not know what to do now. !Because almost all the moves were used up tonight!"

Anthony Davis received another dunk from Leonard's long pass in the counterattack, and Kemba Walker immediately responded with a dunk.

Tonight's rookie game can be regarded as the most vivid interpretation of the defense of the All-Star rookie game.

The two teams scored points alternately, but the Western team's leading position was not shaken at all.

But at this time Irving gave a wonderful blow. His fancy dribble suddenly accelerated and changed direction, knocking Knight down and making an emergency stop jumper.

Knight is not a vegetarian either. He immediately fought back. He forced a jump shot and the ball hit the backboard and bounced into the basket. This goal made many NBA stars stand up and applaud.

In the NBA, it's nothing to be knocked down by an opponent once, just hit it back. Knight's response ball is exactly the interpretation of this spirit!
Irving's personal performance is still going on, but it can no longer affect the overall situation of the game, and the West team is still far ahead.Faried dunked two goals in a row to help the West team break the rookie game single-game scoring record.

In the end, the Eastern team lost again!
And this loss was also Yi Jianlian's first defeat in the first time he coached, which also made Barkley, who was sitting on the side, joked again: "Obviously, those guys on the field can't implement Yi's tactical arrangement, they can implement his strategy. He is the only one with his own tactics, and yes, for this guy, how easy it is to win the game!"

全明星新秀赛西部队163-135连续第二年战胜东部队。值得一提的是西部队今年还打破新秀赛单场得分纪录，欧文砍32分，掘金悍将法里德40分10篮板，帕森斯13分。

Nuggets beast Faried made 22 of 18 shots and grabbed 40 points and 10 rebounds, winning the MVP.
