Chapter 607 The whole world is rescuing LeBron (a 7500-word chapter, the second one!)
It is foreseeable that Lin Yi's slam dunk contest championship has completely suppressed his reputation over this group of supermen of the same generation.
Westbrook plans to practice in the summer, because Turtle also wants to participate in the dunk contest next year.
James intends to discuss it with his agent, after all, participating in the slam dunk contest can restore the plummeting popularity of the little emperor.
That night, when Griffin had a fierce battle with Jenna at the hotel, Sha Chai looked at his conquered girlfriend and said, "Kendall, do you like watching me dunk?"
Panting, Jenna hugged Shachai's neck, "Of course, I want to see your dunk right now."
Griffin felt that he had been hollowed out. Shachai, who had gone further and further on the road of crime, woke up the next day with an inexplicable pain in his waist
……
After a night's rest, on the 17th, the Houston All-Star Weekend ushered in the highlight - the 13 All-Star Game!
The Toyota Center is overcrowded tonight. Although Houston is the home of the Western Conference, there are many traitors at the Toyota Center when the Eastern Stars are on stage.
There are fans everywhere Lin-Yi just finished his performance here yesterday, and of course the fans at the scene will not be stingy with their applause and cheers for Lin Yi.
On the bench of the Western Stars, Westbrook hugged Harden, "James, are you sure this is really your place?"
Harden looked up at the ceiling. Harden really wanted to tell Westbrook, just wait, wait until the All-Star Game is held in Oklahoma City in the future, and see how you are hurt by Lin Yi.
The coach of the Western Conference Star Team this year is Brooks, and when he sees Harden, Brooks always has a feeling that he can't speak.
Brooks may never have dreamed that he would still have the opportunity to coach the "three young men in Oklahoma City", but Harden is no longer the Thunder's sixth man.
……
Before the game, in an interview with TNT TV station, O'Neal encouraged Kobe: "Hey, Kobe, go and win the MVP, this is your stage."
Kobe shook his head. "I just want to enjoy this game, Shaq."
"That's not okay, Kobe, the Western team has been defeated by the Eastern team for three consecutive years, you must stand up!" O'Neal added.
After thinking for a while, Kobe said: "There are many outstanding young people in the Western Conference. I think they will come forward."
Next, O'Neal chatted with Kobe for a while, and Barkley and Kenny Smith on the side were very curious. Did the two really reconcile, or did they reconcile on the surface?
While Kobe was being interviewed before the game, Paul, who was warming up on the court, looked at the sleepy Lin Yi and asked, "Lin, you really don't want to be the MVP anymore?"
Lin Yi frowned, "Chris, you know, I've never been the kind of player who covets glory."
I cannonball laughed, and believed your evil!
But since Lin Yi really doesn't want to win the MVP, Paul also plans to keep healthy for this game.
After all, playing too many All-Star games is really boring.
And compared to the All-Star Game, Paul is more concerned about whether the Knicks' winning streak can continue.
……
After the warm-up of the players on both sides, the prelude to the main game of the All-Star Game also slowly kicked off.
For the Eastern Conference team, tonight's starters are Paul, Wade, James, Garnett, and Lin Yi.
On the Western side are Curry, Kobe, Durant, Griffin, and Howard.
As the players of the two teams walked towards the middle circle one after another, the atmosphere on the scene gradually became hot.
"Happy Beast" was as happy as ever, and he even teased the referee before he was about to start the jump ball.
Howard is in a good mood recently, because in Howard's view, Kobe is bowing to himself by reducing his playing time and number of shots.
Although Howard has not officially seized power in front of the media, this happy beast has already regarded itself as the master of Los Angeles.
It's a pity that Lin Yi didn't know what Howard was thinking, otherwise he would definitely suggest Howard to go to kindergarten for another two years.
Not to mention that as long as the Lakers have Jim Buss, it is impossible for Howard to succeed in usurping the throne. You must know that after Kobe changed his style of play, Kobe was highly evaluated by the outside world.
Because Kobe's changes are equivalent to throwing the blame out in a different direction. The Lakers' management is not so stupid. If Howard really has O'Neal's dominance, then Kobe has now taken the initiative to give up the right to fire, and you are so fucking leading the Lakers to win!
Howard didn't know that the more he fought now, the worse he would lose in the end.
To put it bluntly, Howard is just a pawn of the Lakers. He is not strong enough to give orders to the team management like Lin Yi and James.
……
During the jump ball, Lin Yi, who made up his mind to paddle, didn't even jump, and turned around smartly and ran towards his own half to defend.
This made Howard, who was jumping hard in the jump ball, very uncomfortable.
Because "Happy Beast" felt that he was underestimated by Lin Yi.
It's just that Lin Yi doesn't care what Howard thinks.
In the West's first attack, after Curry dribbled the ball for halftime, he handed the ball to Durant.
0 is better than 3!
After the goal, Durant wanted to give Curry a high-five to celebrate, but he didn't expect the elementary school student to retreat quickly. So Durant, who was a little embarrassed, hurried to catch up with Curry, and slapped Curry's butt twice, "Good pass, Stephen."
Curry froze for a moment, then smiled politely at Durant.
The Eastern team attacked, and Lin Yi, who made up his mind to paddle, stood directly outside the three-point line and waited for the ball.
Howard wanted to switch defenses with Griffin, but Happy Beast didn't expect Griffin to ignore him at all, and saw the sleepy-eyed silly chai rushing straight at Garnett.
"Are all young players now so dragged?" Howard was very dissatisfied with Griffin.
However, in desperation, Happy Beast still defended itself.
In fact, Howard thought too much. Sha Chai had a fierce battle with Jenna last night. In this state, Griffin would not foolishly guard against Lin Yi.
In Griffin's eyes, the Boston Huskies are much more defensive than Lin Yi.
As the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black. After hanging around with Lin Yi for a long time, Griffin's IQ obviously increased from 50 to 55.
As a result, Lin Yi's "paddling" opened up space for the Eastern team. Standing outside the three-point line and waiting for the ball, he enjoyed watching it, because tonight is really "the whole world comes together to save the little emperor". Paul and James have a good relationship. Lin Yi wanted to paddle, so Paul simply gave up the ball to James.
2 is better than 3!
James, who completed the Eastern team's first offense with dunks, retreated aggressively, with an expression that the MVP is mine, and none of you can compete with me.
The second offense of the West team, Curry, who was selected for the All-Star Game for the first time, obviously hasn't realized the true meaning of the All-Star Game.
Babyface organized the West team's offense with a stern look. The elementary school student passed the ball to Kobe this time. Don't tell me, Kobe has really become less "independent" since he changed his gender.
Howard smiled smugly, as expected, his little brother is reliable!
After the ball, the happy beast is ready to ignite the atmosphere in Houston with a dunk!
It's just that Lin Yi's paddling belongs to paddling, but an almost conditioned reflex instinct makes Lin Yi jump up involuntarily.
Fuck basketball dreams!
Snapped!
Tonight's opening is the climax!
Lin Yi used a volleyball cap to boost the morale of the Eastern star team. Wade, who grabbed the second spot, deliberately slowed down during the fast break. After waiting for James to rush up, the Flash threw the ball high, and the emperor ruled the world for the second time after the opening!
4 is better than 3!
Howard, who was covered by Lin Yi's blood hat, was stupefied. He stared at Lin Yi with wide eyes, as if saying: This is the All-Star Game!No matter who comes up, it will be a real fight!
After the dunk, James ran back and gave Lin Yi a high-five to celebrate. The little emperor now felt from the bottom of his heart that Lin Yi was really a good person, and he gave silently without asking for anything in return.
Howard was very uncomfortable, and prepared to take revenge on Lin Yi in singles with the ball in the low post, but the Happy Beast stood on the inside and blocked Curry's successful breakthrough.
Paul, incarnated as a "health cannon", just stretched out his hand symbolically and let Curry pass by while defending. However, Curry never expected that when he was about to show off the dunk, Howard actually stood in front of him!
Curry suddenly felt that Howard would not be an undercover agent sent by Lin Yi, right?
Fortunately, in desperation, Curry saw Kobe who was in the gap on the outside. The elementary school student deftly made a back pass, and without hesitation, he opened his hand and made a handsome jumper.
4 is better than 6!
Turning to turning, this kind of wide open shot Kobe will not miss.
"Steph's pass is really good." Durant thought to himself after seeing this scene.
……
In the first quarter, Lin Yi played for 6 minutes and then took a break with Paul. The "Fried Chicken Brothers" each scored a goal in the first quarter.
On the court, the West team also replaced Harden, Duncan, Curry and Howard.
Brooks knew that tonight was Houston's home game, Harden was a player of the Rockets, and his tactics were rigid, but Brooks still knew how to deal with the world.
As for Howard. Seriously, Brooks has long wanted to remove Howard.
Because Brooks can also see that Lin Yi is here to paddle tonight, but this happy beast has been standing on the inside stupidly, and the offensive space of the West team has been imperceptibly compressed. If Durant and Kobe didn't feel good tonight, the offensive efficiency of the West team could not be guaranteed at all.
Brooks thinks that the Lakers team is simply poisonous. It’s fine that the star doesn’t like to play pick-and-rolls. When Curry asked Howard for a pick-and-roll in this game, the reluctance on Warcraft’s face seemed to say: All-Star game, what kind of pick-and-roll!
"Only this kind of player? Can you replace James alone?" In Brooks' view, if this is the case, he can ask Presti to ask the Heat if Ibaka can replace Wade alone.
And it's hard to say, this is the worst time Ibaka was hacked.
……
After the first quarter, under the leadership of "Full Zhan", the East team fell behind 39 to 47.
Uh.
In fact, it really has nothing to do with James when the Eastern team is behind tonight. Durant and Kobe on the Western team are extremely accurate. James takes the lead in a charge and hits 2 points, but they throw 3 points indiscriminately.
In the second quarter of the game, the two teams replaced the substitute lineup one after another. Judging from the starting point, the Eastern team is indeed stronger, but the substitute lineup is different.
Pickled Pepper, Clay, and Boxing Champion are all playing All-Star Games for the first time and lack experience.
The young man wanted to show off too much, but he didn't show it off. Instead, the veterans of the Western Army seized the opportunity and counterattacked repeatedly.
The Western team is leading the new with the old, and Irving and Westbrook are very cool under this defensive intensity. The style of the boxing champion is destined to make him not suitable for the All-Star Game. After all, the All-Star Game is not until the fourth quarter. Who will seriously defend?
Howard: MMP, what should I say if I'm blocked?
Lin Yi: Huh?That was pure instinct.
This is the case with a crazy player like Klay. It doesn’t matter if you don’t guard him when you can’t shoot. Even if ten people in front of him can’t shoot him, it’s hard to guard him. And the harder you try to perform tonight, the more Clay, the new three-pointer, can’t feel it.
The Pickled Pepper in this period was "Zhang Jike", and Director Lang wanted to go inside to fight with all his heart
As a result, the Eastern team's substitute lineup was pushed to the ground by the Western team for nearly 5 minutes.
James, who was sitting on the bench, suddenly realized that things seemed to be different from what he thought!
In the first quarter, the emperor has scored 16 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists. From the data point of view, James can be said to be thriving
However, the problem came. At this time, the score on the court has become 51 to 73, and the game continues like this.
If you don't win, how can you get the MVP?
James panicked, so before the Eastern team called a timeout, James took the tactical board from Spoelstra and sat next to Lin Yi.
"Lin, how do you think we should adjust our tactics?" James discovered a fact that made him desperate. It seemed that if Lin Yi and Paul paddled, the Eastern team really couldn't win tonight.
The little emperor has a high emotional intelligence, so it is false to ask Lin Yi to discuss tactics, and it is true to hope that Lin Yi will contribute.
Lin Yi looked at James's ashen expression, and said, "LeBron, if we want to catch up with the score, we must speed up our offensive rhythm and increase our three-point shots."
James nodded again and again, yes, you are right.
James, who always had a high opinion of himself, was just about to beat Lin Yi's legs, rub his shoulders and hand him a drink. Brother, you have said so much, why don't you play a few rounds seriously?
Lin Yi looked up at the sky, could it be that he was the trader somewhere?
To be reasonable, Lin Yi didn't mean to paddle James deliberately, because this All-Star Game, he wanted to paddle from the very beginning!
In the second half of the season, the Knicks basically played the teams in the playoffs, with many back-to-backs. Lin Yi didn't want to waste his energy in the All-Star Game.
Moreover, Lin Yi has already been the MVP of the All-Star Game three times in a row. Lin Yi knows very well that if he continues to beat him like this, Stern will go crazy.
But there was no way, the self-respecting James had already let go of his body, Lin Yi felt that he could still give a little effort, so after the timeout ended, the Eastern team, which was adjusted back to the starting lineup, started its own point-chasing mode.
The Eastern team abandoned Garnett, and the Wolf King didn't have any opinion about it. After all, his entry into the starting lineup of this All-Star Game depends on the fans' votes. In terms of strength, this Wolf King is no longer an All-Star.
In the second half of the second quarter, Anthony and Lin Yi fired continuously from the outside, and a pitcher opened up space for James. No one in the West could stop the charging humanoid tank.
Before the end of the first half, the Eastern team chased the score to 88-93, and Lin Yi inexplicably scored another 18 points.
During the halftime break, TNT TV had already begun to discuss the possibility of Lin Yi's four consecutive MVPs.
Barkley pointed out that Lin Yike is the key to the Eastern team's pursuit of points.
O'Neill believes that the All-Star Game can't be taken seriously until the fourth quarter.
Kenny Smith said that James' data in the first half was also very eye-catching.
But no matter what, this year's All-Star Game was quite exciting, with a lot of dunks, especially James contributed 6 dunks alone in the first half.
Jamies patted their small chests and said: See, it's not that my emperor doesn't want to participate in the slam dunk contest, it's because he's afraid that others won't have a chance to win the championship if he participates in the slam dunk contest!
Zhan Hei scoffed at this: Go get it if you have the ability!Look at Lin Yi, who has won the dunk contest three times!
Jamies: You don’t understand!My emperor is not a player like Lin Yi who only pursues personal honor!
Zhan Hei: But Lin Yi has a championship!
Jamies: "."
Just wait and see, you dirty black fans, sooner or later my emperor will get four, no, five, no, at least six championships!
……
After the intermission, the game continued. In the third quarter, the Western team also abandoned Howard
Howard, who originally wanted to use this All-Star Game to gain back some popularity, can only rely on being funny on the sidelines to grab a spotlight tonight, because his stats of 2 points and 4 rebounds, even "True Love Sparks" can't blow him up
The two teams started the scoring mode in the third quarter. Kobe felt really good tonight. By the time of the break in the third quarter, he had already made 9 of 8 shots from outside the three-point line. He was not at all like the Kobe Lin Yi knew.
The Western team relied on three-pointers to continue their lives, while James on the Eastern team really worked hard. After three quarters, I have already scored a quasi-triple-double of 30 points, 13 rebounds, and 9 assists.
only.
On the field, the East team still trailed 131 to 135.
Facts have proved that people underestimated the lineup of this Western team. Although the starting lineup of the Eastern All-Stars is very bluffing, in fact the lineup of the Western team is more reasonable.
Except for Howard, the Western Conference has what they want, there are those who are responsible for breakthroughs, those who can organize, those who can rely on insiders alone, and those who can strike iron.
The East team's bench lineup is full of young people, but in the All-Star Game, you can't let the bench sit on the bench, can you?
In the fourth quarter, at the moment of life and death, James looked at Lin Yi affectionately, "Lin, we need you!"
Lin Yi covered his face with one hand, what the fuck, I'm really not an actor!
To be fair, although Lin Yi didn't try his best in this game, Lin Yi was useful for at least six successes. However, the lineup of the Eastern team is not as compatible as that of the Western team, and Spoelstra's tactics are not as bold as Old De.
When he was about to play in the fourth quarter, Paul touched his chin meaningfully, "Lin, don't you know that LeBron wants the MVP, so you put on airs on purpose?"
Lin Yi: "."
Chris, am I like that?
Fuck, I have also sweated and made outstanding contributions for the Eastern Conference in the past three years, okay?
Why can Duncan paddle silently, and as Duncan's successor, I can be understood as an actor by paddling a section of water?
"However, I support you in whatever decision you make." Paul patted Lin Yi's butt and said.
it's over
If the tiger doesn't show off its power, do you really think I'm Howard?
……
In the fourth quarter of the game, as soon as Lin Yi came up, he gave Durant a big hat first!
I saw that Durant was ready to pull out after the pick-and-roll with Aldridge, but he didn't expect Lin Yi to withdraw suddenly at the moment he moved with Aldridge
Durant, who is tall and long, is rarely directly blocked by the opponent when shooting. At this moment, Mantis Du is extremely wronged.
After Wade grabbed the second penalty, he saw Lin Yi, who was going down quickly, without any hesitation, and sent a pass from the Flash!
Bang-dang-!
Lin Yi flew up and dunked with both hands!
133 to 135, the Eastern team approached the score.
The fans at the scene also burst into applause for Lin Yi's dunk.
"Oh, Lin's low profile in the first three quarters is for the explosion in the last quarter?" Barkley complained.
O'Neill cast a glance at Lin Yi on the field, with an expression that I knew this kid would not be honest. After all, in O'Neill's mind, Lin Yi would never miss any honor.
It's a pity that Lin Yi on the court couldn't hear the commentary from TNT TV station.
Go to Grandma O'Neill, labor and management really want to paddle!
In the fourth quarter of the game, after the two sides actually played, the defensive level of the Eastern team seemed to have reached the strength of the playoffs. Curry, the point guard of the Western team, was inexperienced and made repeated mistakes.
Relying on Lin Yi's sudden outburst, the Eastern team rewrote the score to 141 to 139, successfully surpassing the score.
As for the Western team, Brooks saw that the momentum was not good, and hurriedly requested a timeout.
After the timeout ended, Kobe, who had been an open shooter for the Western team in the first three quarters, stepped forward and hit various difficult fadeaways, successfully stabilizing the situation for the Western team.
"Oh, I knew that Kobe and Lin like to fool people." Seeing Lin Yi and Kobe breaking out in the fourth quarter, O'Neill thought disdainfully.
In fact, it makes sense. Kobe really intends to hand over the game to this group of young people tonight.
Because after accepting Lin Yi's suggestion of "healthy basketball", Kobe found that health preservation is also quite good.
However.
In his heart, Kobe still couldn't restrain the urge to be the savior in his heart!
After Durant was blocked and Curry made repeated mistakes, Kobe, who couldn't stand it anymore, felt that it was time for him to stand up.
At the Toyota Center, the fans at the scene were hooked. This kind of close game is very interesting, especially after the East and West teams started the real play mode, the players of the two teams contributed many wonderful and difficult goals.
In the middle of the fourth quarter, James and Kobe also staged a 23V24 show. At that time, James made a three-pointer, which expanded the lead for the Eastern team. Looking back, Kobe faced James with a three-pointer.
Seeing this scene, Stern in the stands couldn't help feeling very emotional.
It's just that you may not believe it, although Lin Yi's statistics are not the most eye-catching on this night, but Stern admires Lin Yi the most this night.
Because Lin Yi and Stern have an invisible tacit understanding.
The MVP of the All-Star Game is purely a gimmick, and the bonus of historical status is far worse than that of the regular season MVP and FMVP.
No one will take the MVP of the All-Star Game seriously. Besides, Lin Yi has already won the MVP three times in a row. It is not worthwhile to fight for the MVP of the All-Star Game.
For Lin Yi, the three consecutive regular season MVPs are the current top priority.
Therefore, it is necessary to save energy in the All-Star Game.
In Stern's view, Lin Yi's performance tonight was too sensible, because the league didn't want to see Lin Yi's four consecutive All-Star Game MVPs.
After all, the essence of the NBA is a business league, a star league. Lin Yi has won all the honors, so what about other star leagues?
Why is it difficult to build a dynasty in the NBA?
In addition to the restrictions of the NBA rules, the league has always had a tradition of suppressing powerful players. To put it bluntly, the birth of a dynasty team often means that the NBA loses suspense prematurely. Stern will not manipulate the game too much, but he will also find ways to limit those dynasty teams.
On the way of balance, no one knows better than this little Jewish old man.
Stern does not object to Lin Yi's three consecutive regular season MVPs, but Lin Yi has been occupying various honors, which is harmful to the development of the NBA.
Of course, Stern always felt that this little guy really didn't intend to leave a way for others to survive.
However, Stern will not worry so much now.
If Lin Yi can really suppress others, why not give him all the honor?
Anyway, let Xiao Hua solve it by himself. After I retire, who cares about his flood?
……
Amidst the screams and cheers of the fans at the Toyota Center, the 13 All-Star Game also came to its final climax!
159 is better than 161!
With 8 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Kobe hit a quasi-lore for the Western Stars!
Chatter has already scored 47 points tonight. He is the king of the All-Star Game, and he really deserves his reputation!
And the Eastern team still has the last chance to attack, James habitually bit his thumb, very nervous.
Spoelstra arranged for James to attack with the ball during the timeout, and the other players in the Eastern team did not have any opinions on this. After all, the theme of the Eastern team tonight is "Let's save LeBron together."
After the timeout, Wade sent the ball to the baseline, and after James received the ball, he dribbled from the outside to make a strong pull.
The little emperor didn't dare to waste time until the last second, because if he missed a three-point shot, the Eastern team still had a chance to grab an offensive rebound or foul.
It's a pity that the little emperor's three-point shot was a little anxious, and the basketball knocked out of the frame!
Fortunately, Paul grabbed the offensive rebound!
No player wants to win the game on the court, and no one can paddle at this point in the game.
My cannon didn't pass the ball to James who was reaching out from the outside, because the organization cannon was alert to Lin Yi who was ambushing on the bottom line!
Brother Fried Chicken, completed a connection at the last moment!
Lin Yi didn't make adjustments after receiving the ball, and the timer just reset to zero after he made a shot!
The Toyota Center suddenly fell silent. The fans had no idea that the final moments of the All-Star Game would be so exciting.
Swish-!
Lin Yi hit a three-pointer, which was his 31st point tonight!
"Oh my god! Lin, the lore game!!" Barkley held his head. If Barkley remembers correctly, this is the second time Lin Yi has staged a lore in the All-Star Game, right?
After Lin Yi hit a three-pointer, the players of the Eastern Star Team rushed towards him frantically, and Paul ran at the front, hitting Lin Yi's chest like hell!
162 is better than 161!
Lin Yi killed the western army!
James was about to cry at this moment. The MVP of the All-Star Game finally arrived!
Lin Yi is really reliable!
James felt that the next time the Knicks were a guest in Miami, he would have to treat Lin Yi to a good meal.
And Lin Yi, who was surrounded by his teammates, never thought that he would once again complete the lore in the All-Star Game
"I am indeed the king of the All-Star Game!" Lin Yi thought excitedly.
The Eastern team has defeated the Western team for four consecutive years.
And when the fans were still reminiscing about Lin Yi's lore just now, the top executives of the league were in trouble.
What the hell. It seems that Lin Yi's data is also very good!
And he scored several key goals in the fourth quarter of the Eastern team
So everyone turned their heads to Stern, CEO, what should we do?
Stern looked up at the sky. For some reason, Stern always felt like he had seen such a plot somewhere.
