God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 210 False Star

Chang Wei considered himself a relatively calm person, but even so, he was still blushed by the stimulation of the fans who came to watch the All-Stars live.He murmured to himself: "It is indeed the most entertaining basketball feast every season. This kind of scene is not much better than the NCAA Finals! It seems that this time the old man was dragged to Washington to participate in the All-Star Game." Worth the weekend…”

Harmon was a little surprised, because in the eyes of her or most American fans, the NCAA is much more attractive than the NBA, but from Chang Wei's tone, it seems that the NCAA finals are not as good as the All-Stars?She said angrily: "I think the scene of the NCAA Finals should be more exciting. The All-Star Weekend is relatively too commercialized. It doesn't have the atmosphere of the NCAA..."

Chang Wei smiled and explained: "It can't be helped. I played for small teams with little reputation, especially the Colorado State University later. Many fans didn't know which corner we came from. , It can be said that except for the fans in Colorado, no one supports us. So for me, most of the fans in the finals are cheering for the opponent, so naturally there is no good feeling.”

As he spoke, he smiled casually, squeezed Harmon's little hand tightly, and said, "Let's stop discussing these things, let's watch the game!"

Harmon pouted and said, "I don't know what the league officials think. Why did Mason replace Hill after he was injured? The Eastern Conference can still select a few swingmen. The Celtics twin stars Pierce and Walker is more qualified than Mason in any case."

Chang Wei nodded: "I also find it very strange. After all, Mason's statistics are very average. It's not a big deal to be placed in the East with an average of close to 16+10 per game. But I guess the idea of ​​​​the league is to give veterans a chance, after all, they are 88. The rookie with the third pick in the third round of [-], and now there are only a few seasons left before he retires. Besides, he was once the best sixth man, and was also selected to the second team of the best defense and the third team of the best team... "

"And," Chang Wei blinked, "do you think Mr. Brown will give him a lot of playing time?"

Soon, the All-Stars from the East and West entered the arena one after another.Compared with the regular season, the entrance ceremony of the All-Star players has a lot more tricks. The repertoire is dancing. You can do any kind of dance. I'm not used to it, so I can only make a few moves casually.But for American players who like to show off, this can be used as a stage for wanton display.Even Dikembe Mutombo, who usually has a simple and honest face, also performed a part of their local African indigenous dance on the stage, which also won the applause of the fans.

After the players showed off their dance moves and the singers sang, the All-Star Game officially started.For Brown and Adelman, the starting lineup is not something they can decide. Although there are generals injured on both sides (Hill and O'Neal) this year, the league has still designated replacement players, and they can only use this Set the lineup to start.Of course, as Chang Wei said, with Brown's style, he will never let Mason play for too long. Chang Wei believes that if the rules do not allow it, it is also possible for the old man to put Mason on the bench for the entire game. .

With a whistle, the starting centers of the East and West, Antonio Davis and Duncan jumped up at the same time, and stretched their two big hands towards the basketball, hoping to get the ball for their team in the first wave of offense.But who is Duncan?That's the top inside line in history. Although Davis is also very good, he is still a bit worse than Duncan.

The defensive intensity of the All-Star Game has never been high, especially at the beginning of the game, fans want to see the stars swaying their talents on the court.Kidd only dribbled a few steps after getting the ball, and then sent the ball to the basket with a high throw. A tall and thin figure rose from the ground, stretched out his long arms and slammed the ball into the basket fiercely. Doing a pull-up, the one who has such a habit is naturally Timberwolves power forward Garnett.

Although the dunk was not fancy, Garnett was tall and long, with amazing bounce, and the posture of taking off and dunking looked very beautiful, which naturally aroused wild cheers from the fans.The Eastern All-Star team was not affected either. Mason kicked off in the backcourt, and Iverson got the ball and came to the frontcourt leisurely. Facing Kidd's defense, Iverson dribbled the ball continuously Suddenly he raised his hand and sent out a high toss with a high similarity. The air-cut Carter was already in place. This top dunker known as the "UFO" played a 360-degree windmill to dunk the ball into the basket.

Two dunks in a row seemed to set the tone for this All-Star Game. It seemed that everyone was not ready to defend. Come on as you look good!

But Brown quickly made the first substitution of the game, which he had considered before the game started.And at this time, Mason has already scored 2 points and 1 rebound, and the fans will not say much if he is replaced.Mason was replaced by Bucks forward "Big Dog" Robinson. This is another forward with a height of 2 meters. It seems that Brown is going to stick to the small lineup to the end.Now the highest lineup of Eastern All-Stars is Davis at 01 meters. Compared with Duncan and Garnett, two big men with a height of more than 2 meters in the West, it is undoubtedly relatively small.

But the old man doesn't care. He often plays one big and four small in the 76ers. Although Lewis has the height of a power forward, his style of play is completely a wing or even a guard.For Brown, this lineup is just to reduce the height of the center. Considering the loose game atmosphere and the strong offensive firepower of several players, the height difference seems to be irrelevant.

Maybe only Chang Wei knew what the old man was going to do in the whole scene, so now he felt that he should cherish the time when the two sides fought each other, lest when Brown started to resort to defense, he couldn't see anything.In fact, judging from the lineup, the offenses of both sides have their own bright spots. Because of Kidd's existence in the west, the team's offense is called a smooth flow, while the east side is more inclined to individual offense. Tracy McGrady, Carter and Robinson all He is a guy with amazing physical fitness. Although Iverson is not tall enough, his breakthrough is first-class and sharp. From the perspective of overall strength, the two sides can be said to be evenly matched.
