The strongest basket king

Chapter 393 Working towards the goal
The halftime break of the All-Star game is very easy, and the coach will not emphasize any tactics. Even if he is more serious in the second half, he will match the players.

After the first half, everyone's state coach can also be said to have seen it.

Cole made no secret of his love for Xiang Chu. He is already planning the winning lineup, but in addition to considering the match, he also depends on the players' wishes.

Those who have status in the world will definitely be able to fight more if they want to fight in a good state.

The East has been losing, but there are actually some players who want to win back.

However, it is difficult for the All-Stars to unify their thinking, and they can only use simple tactics, and sometimes they have more energy than energy. If they really want to fight, no one on their side can lock Xiang Chu.

Compared with Kerr, Budenholzer is more disciplined in employing people, and the main force and the substitute are clearly distinguished.

This may also be because the starting lineup in the East has not changed much, and the coach does not want to offend others.

Three starters in the Western Conference have changed, and Cole can certainly make some changes appropriately.

In the third quarter, the two sides played more happily than in the first half, mainly because of the excitement and difficulty, and they seemed to be a little defensive, but the offensive side can always make wonderful performances, which is difficult for rookies to grasp.

The script was actually similar to the first half. The West gained the advantage first, and then the East chased it back.

This is also related to the fact that the main players in the Eastern Conference spend more time playing. Although there are active Westbrooks on the bench in the Western Conference, there are also those who are active and active.

The Eastern side is more down-to-earth, always letting more confident players take shots, so there is a chance to catch up.

But this also illustrates a problem, that is, the main lineup is stronger in the West.

Moreover, Anthony, who plays at home in the East, is too strong, and Xiang Chu doesn't need to exert much effort.

By the fourth quarter, the two sides increased their intensity, and the score began to rise alternately.

At this time, a single strong point plays a very important role. Even if the overall lineup is strong, if the opponent cannot guard against one point, it will not be easy to open the score.

The key is that the All-Stars will not use exaggerated defensive tactics, it mainly depends on the player's ability.

At the final decisive moment, the East still used the starting lineup, but the West replaced it with one big and four small, and there were four guards. If Durant didn't play in the West, there would be no other third positions.

Curry, Paul, Harden and Westbrook, this lineup is also very limited.

However, it is difficult for the East to take advantage of anything. At most, they let James and Anthony play. You must know that a heavy guard like Harden can defend the forward.

The time came to the last three minutes and the West led by 1 point.

Xiang Chu feinted inside, and Harden stepped back outside and hit a three-pointer.

Then Xiang Chu interfered with Anthony's shooting on the defensive end, and grabbed an offensive rebound on the offensive end to assist Paul to make a hit.

This wave directly stopped the East, and the East replaced Irving to increase the offensive threat.

Owen came up and hit 3+1, chasing the score gap between the two sides to only 2 points.

At the critical moment, Xiang Chu blocked Wall and completed a dunk on the offensive end.

Time has become less and less, and the East has also started various three-pointers.

James assisted Anthony to make a strong three-pointer, but then Harden also hit a three-pointer.

The next few shots in the East were James and Anthony. With the West sticking to the three-point line, they hit the iron continuously and the rebounds were all recovered by Xiang Chu.

At this time, the game time was not enough, and the East adopted foul tactics.

The chance of free throws in the West was given to Westbrook, who scored the most points, and Westbrook also managed to score 40 points with free throws.

At the same time, he also helped the West win the All-Star victory and won the MVP of this session.

Xiang Chu scored a game-high 19 rebounds. By the way, he experienced the joy of playing with many all-star guards. He really can abuse any team with half his strength. How cool is it.

Westbrook, who was happy after the game, also expressed his gratitude to Xiang Chu. He is definitely an insider today.

He felt good, and so did the others. They also hoped to partner with a strong insider like Xiang Chu.

However, the possibility of their partnership is too small now. After all, Denver is only a small ball market, and it is absolutely impossible for Xiang Chu to leave in a short time.

Different status in the rivers and lakes means that there are many benefits. During this all-star tour, Xiang Chu communicated with many people.

Although he can't be as popular as James, everyone is still very interested in communicating with a strong player who has won a championship.

Anthony even asked him if he was interested in New York.

After the All-Star Weekend, Xiang Chu didn't return immediately, and he even went shopping with Olivia for a day.

After returning, he wanted Olivia to stay at home obediently.

The fetus is developing well, Xiang Chu should be able to become a father before playing in the playoffs, it will be a great experience.

"I don't feel like I've had enough." Olivia muttered.

Xiang Chu said as gently as possible: "It's okay, when our baby is born, we can play better as a family, but we still have a lifetime."

Olivia bit Xiang Chu lightly. Although she knew it was a lie, she was still very happy.

It is precisely because of Xiang Chu's hard work that she can live the leisurely life she likes, that is, pregnancy is a bit boring during this period of time.

After returning to Denver, the Nuggets didn't want to play the game immediately.

This adjustment is ten days, and they have more rest time than most teams in the league.

This is good for them, so players can adjust their physical condition, but it can also have a certain impact on the state of the game.

Anyway, after the All-Star weekend, the team will go all out to prepare for the playoffs.

First hit the No. [-] in the Western Conference, and then when it comes to the playoffs, no matter whether the record meets expectations or not, they will adjust their status for the playoffs to prevent players from getting injured.

Unlike last season, this season the Western Conference is full of heroes, but there are only two first-class teams, so it is not so important to be the first and second in the Western Conference.

In terms of the team's training, Xiang Chu's requirements for everyone are even higher.

Not everyone likes high-intensity training, but if the boss leads by example, everyone will not have much opinion, but if he just points fingers, everyone will be upset.

After all, the players in the league are rich, even with a basic salary contract, they are much richer than ordinary office workers.

Xiang Chu felt that after this period of adjustment, the strength of the team has increased.

They were inconsistent in the first half of the season, and now they are getting better.

"Guys, let's have another season full of glory, we'll win another championship, and we'll all get what we want."

"We have to pay as much as we want to gain. From now on, we need 200% effort and concentration. Brothers, it's time to be more determined. The championship is ours."
