Chapter 27 I want to do it myself (page 12)

The Pistons didn't throw in the towel, this team was tough. Grant Hill showed his strength. Even in the face of Carter's defense, he still scored 5 points in a row, causing Carter to foul.

Bringing the point difference back to 6 points, there is still hope.

Calipari discussed with assistant coach Jason and put Carter at the power forward position in the last four minutes, using Carter's jumping advantage to protect the penalty area. Then let Williams play center, and his height of 4 will not be bullied.

Joe Dumars missed the shot and Williams was stuck in position. Carter grabbed the rebound with his arm and slowly took control.

Cassel is still on the court. After all, Daniels was replaced at the small forward position and Robert Parker was replaced at the shooting guard position. Others need to cover their weaknesses.

"Carter actually got to the inside position?"

Grant Hill was a little surprised. He didn't expect Carter to really become an inside player. This game was played a little differently. Carter caught the ball, turned his back to Otis Thorpe, and posted up.

Unable to hit the ball, he had to pass it to the outside. Robert Pike received the ball. Facing Joe Dumars, there was no shooting space, and then passed it to the inside.

Williams had a performance of 14 points and 14 rebounds today. He was so confident that he reluctantly took the shot and missed.

Unexpectedly, Carter was the first to grab the rebound in the air. While everyone was on the ground, he took off again and dunked on Otis Thorpe, which shocked the whole audience.

"Super dunk, another perfect dunk!"

"How many times has Carter dunked on the inside? The Bulls' two centers, Longley and Wennington, were both dunked by Carter."

"It's too cruel..."

Calipari was overjoyed. His little plan finally succeeded, and Carter hadn't noticed his data yet!

"This is a game that is broadcast live across the United States. It is good for Carter to get such beautiful data in front of countless American fans."

With the last 2 minutes left, the score difference was 12 points, and the Pistons gave up the game early. They also have to prepare for the next back-to-back game, so they can't fight too hard this time.

Grant Hill came off the court and scored 25 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists today. It was a near triple-double and the fans applauded. Along with him, Joe Dumars and Theo Telalive came off the field.

"The Pistons have given up on this game. It was a very exciting matchup. But today the Nets are more determined to make the most of it. They have the last laugh." The on-site commentator announced that the game had entered garbage time.

After Hill left the game, Carter followed suit.

"Nets player No. 15, Vince Carter, today's data is 27 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, a triple-double. In my mind, this is the first time Vince Carter has had a triple-double."

Triple-double, double figures in points, rebounds and assists, all the fans stood up and applauded!

The whole audience was shouting All-Stars. Unexpectedly, in a national live broadcast, I almost saw two triple-doubles. If Hill performed harder, he might also get a triple-double.

Carter was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect to get a triple-double. After hearing the commentator's excited introduction, I had no choice but to stand up and greet all the fans.

On the court, garbage players played out the final minutes.

The New Jersey Nets finally defeated the Detroit Pistons 97:89 and won their 31st victory of the season, only one win away from the Pistons' ranking.

"Sean Braled also performed well, with 16 points and 11 rebounds. He has been performing well recently, averaging a double-double per game." The on-site commentator mentioned, "If he If we can play tougher, the Nets' upper limit will be higher."

Many American fans are already overjoyed. This game is indeed exciting. Carter made many defensive dunks, demonstrating his personal abilities as always.

Kendall Gill scored 24 points and had 3 steals, which was an unexpected surprise. Cassell was still solid, with 14 points and 8 assists.

"I didn't expect that the Nets would be able to show such strong fighting power and that they could really enter the playoffs."

"The main reason is that Carter is so strong. He led the team to such a performance in his rookie season, and it will definitely be great in the future."

"Vince, I love you!" More fans are showing their love to Carter.

Grant Hill adjusted his mood and once again entered preparations for a new game.

Time has entered February, and all the All-Stars have been released.

Carter regretted not being selected as the starting lineup. The votes at the critical moment still failed to defeat Grant Hill and Scottie Pippen, and he missed the starting lineup of the forward.

Jordan became the top vote-getter, with a total of 240 million votes.

The starting five in the Eastern Conference are Patrick Ewing, Grant Hill, Scottie Pippen, Michael Jordan and "Penny" Hardaway.

Carter received 120 million votes, only 5000 votes less than Hardaway. He was the player with the most votes among all the undrafted starters. Carter's influence is evident. He has only played half a season.

Of course, although Ewing of the Knicks was selected for the starting lineup, he missed the All-Star due to injury. Mutombo was selected as a substitute and became the All-Star starter.

In the Eastern Conference, Iverson also received 59 votes, ranking third in the selection of guards.

The starting five in the West are center Olajuwon, forwards Kemp and Barkley, and the backs are Gary Payton and John Stockton.

The All-Star bench lineup is selected by reporters and head coaches, and is reviewed by the league. The list will be announced soon.

"The Nets and 76ers have super rookies. It's not very suitable to leave anyone behind, and their votes are very high in their respective positions, which is convincing." David Stern thought for a long time and finally decided.

Let Carter and Iverson enter the All-Star Game at the same time. In this way, two rookies in the 1996 draft became All-Stars in their first year.

Both are in the East. The other All-Star players in the East are: Bucks center Vin Baker, Hornets Glen Rice, Heat Tim Hardaway, Hawks Christian Laettner, and the Bullets. Chris Webber, 12 players in total.

Originally Alonzo Mourning was also eligible for selection, but he was also injured and was unable to participate. Joe Dumars is also eligible, but he said he needs to recuperate.

Western O'Neal is also injured and cannot participate even if he is selected as an All-Star. In addition, he was also selected into the 50 Greatest Stars of 50 Years, which caused great controversy among fans.

"I'd rather get hurt than suffer from Cleveland." O'Neal looked at the announced list and muttered quietly. Also injured like him was Spurs core David Robinson, who was reimbursed at the beginning of the season, but still received 75 votes in the voting process.

The final substitute lineup of the Western Conference is the Warriors' "Madman" Sprewell, the SuperSonics' Detrev Schrempf, the Lakers' starting shooting guard Eddie Jones, and the Kings' "Rock" Mitch Richmond , Tom Gugliotta and Kevin Garnett of the Timberwolves, and Chris Gatlin of the Dallas Mavericks.

It can be seen that the stars are distributed in various teams. Many teams are relatively balanced in strength and have stars in charge.

The league is also willing to allow more teams to be competitive, so that the games will be exciting.

"Vince, congratulations on being selected to the All-Star team." Cassell hugged Carter immediately after learning the list, "I knew you would succeed."

"All-Star is just for fun, don't take it seriously." Carter smiled slightly, looking calm and relaxed, although he was very happy in his heart.

At least it means that he already has skills and can be considered an influential player in the league.
