From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 175 Owen and Westbrook above
With Harden's eyes shifting and his surprised expression, the cameraman's attention was also on the auditorium.

The audience and even the audience all over the world noticed Harden's mother and the photo in his hand.

"He's so cute, stupid, naive and cute, like a sand sculpture!!"

The female audience in front of the TV couldn't help showing a nympho smile...
Jianghu smiled and shook his head lightly. Does he, the one who finally scored the goal, have no face at all?
Forget it, let's show off our strength in the next game. You can't lose in the game, and you can't lose in attracting fans.

"Drummond, stay focused and play seriously!!"

James approached Green, and Green stretched out his hand. He thought James was going to pull him up, but James just ran away with a blank expression.

James was very upset, and was given a big limelight by the opposite player, it was the bearded Harden who had many similar names to his own.

Did you Green deliberately let him show off?
come play me?
Green glared at James with lightning speed, then got up from the ground himself.

Let me defend Harden?
Is that easy?
If Green didn't use the "tough" method of poking his eyes and kicking eggs, it would be impossible to prevent Harden.

He can only defend defenders, but he is not a professional defender. Doesn't it mean that he is serious about defending when he is knocked to the ground?

Fortunately, Durant and Curry knew that Green's difficulties did not care about him, but instead gave him a positive look and encouraged him to continue to defend.

In the next round, James pushed the rivers and lakes away in the offense, and went straight to the basket empty-handed.

Irving saw the time and threw the ball to the backboard, and James used his strong body in the air to knock Davis away for a dunk.

"A classic Jan-Ou connection, James received a pass from Irving and slammed the basketball into the hoop."

"Although they are separated now, when they cooperate again, they are still full of tacit understanding, as if they have always been in the same team!!"

Green, who was standing at the top of the arc, quickly pretended to be extremely excited, and rushed up to bump his chest with James to celebrate! !
While James' dunk ignited the Staples Center Arena, it also once again sounded the clarion call for Curry's counterattack.

Curry's stars were lifted by a dunk.

Compared with the Curry team, the Jianghu team obviously hasn't changed much.

Their pick-and-roll coordination often has turnovers.

The score was quickly close, and the two sides quickly returned to the same level.

But at this time, they found that when they fought seriously, they were not the opponents of Curry's team.

Opposite is the Warriors Big Three + Cavaliers. They have played for the same team for a long time before, and they only need simple adaptation to run in.

Durant's singles are a threat as long as he receives the ball, and he can hardly be restricted. Even Anthony Davis can't fully interfere with his shots.

As for the Jianghu team, everyone came from five different teams, without any tactical adjustments.

The lack of cooperation of the Eastern team, both offensive and defensive ends are not opponents of the Western team.

The lead established in the first half was quickly wiped out by the Curry team!
Of course, during this period of time, the Jianghu team was not completely fruitless.

Just 5 minutes after the opening of the second half, Jianghu's personal score reached 30 points, which made him not only the youngest All-Star 30+ player in history, but also the second player in history to score 30+ points in the All-Star Game in his rookie season.

The player who scored 30 points and 10 assists in his first All-Star appearance was Lakers legend Magic Johnson.

Stevens replaced Thompson with Westbrook, trying to use the perverted bodies of Westbrook and Jianghu to attack Curry's fragile inside line in turn.

But as a coach who has never worked with Westbrook, he thinks Westbrook too simply. Westbrook is a very easy player, especially when Kevin Durant is opposite him, his emotions are easily affected.

After coming up, Master Wei took the ball to the basket three times in a row. Although he hit Durant with a strong 2+1 on the first ball, he threw the basketball on the next ball, and then made an alley-oop from an outrageous angle, which almost caused Davis to be injured when catching the ball...

But Stevens had just replaced Westbrook on the court, and it was impossible to replace him after a few minutes of playing. He could only look helplessly at Jianghu.

Seeing the slightly helpless look in Coach Stevens' eyes, Jianghu also understood what he should do.

In the next period of time, Jianghu began to frequently ask for the ball in singles, and Harden also logically increased his number of shots.

The advantage of the tacit cooperation of the Curry team is full, and the scores of the two sides can rise alternately, all because of Jianghu and Harden's continuous singles.

It's already very cooperative.

If you can't cooperate, then simply don't cooperate.

Facing Durant and James, a top two superstar in the league, and another player who claims to be the league's strongest individual player.

Jianghu swears his sovereignty with his actual actions, he must stand up and carry the team when the team is in crisis
Harden singled out Curry consecutively, and Jianghu also used dislocation singles to play Irving consecutively. His powerful low-post offensive skills and physical fitness made Irving miserable.

The highly competitive Jianghu has engaged in physical confrontation many times in back hits, and even habitually gave the well-behaved Owen an elbow.

It didn't take into account that Irving was his teammate.

Owen was not angry either. As a player who had been working with Jianghu for half a year, he knew that Jianghu was already serious at this time, and he must also take it seriously.

In Jianghu's eyes, this game is no longer just an ordinary game. It is about the struggle for power, and a preview of the transition between the old and the new.

But Irving also has a temper. Although he is very rebellious off the court, he rarely loses his composure on the court, not to mention that Jianghu and him are teammates.

Originally James said it was a war and Owen was very disapproving, and didn't use too much action, which allowed Jianghu to easily complete the singles.

But this is not over yet, Jianghu will continue to ask for the ball to displace Owen in the next round.

Owen, who was angry in his heart, wanted to teach Jiang Hu a lesson.

Jianghu took the ball with his back, and Owen clung to him tightly. This time, facing Jianghu's strong attack, Owen did not choose to give in at his feet, but went up very toughly.

The Jianghu shoulders at the top of the free throw line swayed continuously, and Irving was very focused, and he didn't hesitate.

But Jianghu is Jianghu, his own talent is already very outstanding, coupled with Jordan's fadeaway jumper in his hand, and his skills have been polished day after day, his post-up attack is already [-]% like Kobe's, and he is in a state of ease.

With a simple feint, and then turning around with a combined ball, Jiang Hu easily passed Owen.

Jianghu rushed into the penalty area in one step, and he was about to dunk with one foot.

But Irving, who was already a bit above him, didn't want Jianghu to successfully complete this dunk.

At this time, Owen obviously couldn't catch up with Jianghu, and normally the ball should be handed over to the inside to defend.

But he still refused to give up, and sprinted towards the basket like a madman. The moment he took off in Jianghu, Owen also jumped from behind.

"Snapped."

Owen wanted to use a big hat that covered his head and face to teach the world a lesson, and by the way, get back the place he just lost.

But obviously, blocking shots requires a certain amount of technical content, and Irving, who has been playing point guard since childhood, is not very good at this skill.

Irving's slap missed the basketball, but instead slapped Jiang Hu's head heavily.

Jianghu felt that he had been hit hard in the air, and he felt like the world was spinning, and then he lost his body's center of gravity and fell heavily to the ground.

Owen really gave Jianghu a "head-to-head" cover...

Jianghu lay quietly on the ground without any movement...

silence……

The audience fell into complete silence. It is rare to see this level of fouls in the All-Stars. The last time such a serious foul was in 2012, Wade slapped Kobe's nose to the bone.

The referee was stunned for a while, and immediately came up and whistled Owen for a malicious foul, and came to the sidelines to watch the video to see if it was necessary to add a second-level malicious foul to Irving and directly expel him.

Stevens' heart rate rose to 160 the moment he fell to the ground, and his body was cold and trembling. He was in good health and felt that his high blood pressure was about to break out! ! !
Brown and Smart, who were watching the battle in casual clothes off the court, were all dumbfounded. If it was someone else who was good, they might not want to rush into the court and give that person an uppercut.

But the person who caused this situation is Owen, which is very difficult...

They also know that although Irving is tugging, he will definitely not deliberately do actions that hurt his teammates.

Fortunately, after lying on the ground for more than ten seconds, Jiang Hu got up from the ground with a push-up, which made everyone on and off the field heave a sigh of relief!
"Are you okay, Jiang!!"

"Scared me to death, I didn't mean it!!"

Irving also came up to apologize immediately, saying that he was just impulsive, and it was caused by his heavy attack on the block, and it was definitely not intentional.

Jianghu didn't bother Owen, smiled at him, and then walked to the bench.

The field entered a timeout, and Stevens immediately replaced Jiang Hu with Thompson.

The medical staff at the scene came to the sidelines and went around Jianghu three times to the left and three times to the right to check, but they still refused to give up and insisted on dragging Jianghu to the locker room for an MRI.

The team doctor didn't give up until Jianghu clearly indicated that he had no problems, was clear-headed, but slightly dizzy, and repeatedly refused to go to the locker room.

After Jianghu ended, the atmosphere on the field changed completely.

With the occurrence of Irving's malicious foul this time, the confrontation between the two sides has become full, and it has even reached the level of the playoffs.

Seriously on both sides, an exhibition match really looks like a war bogged down in the mud.

Westbrook had a good temper at first, no one provoked him, and he generally didn't provoke others.

"He must have done it on purpose, Jiang must have offended him in the team!!"

Westbrook and Irving have played against him many times, and he has a good impression of him, but at this moment, Irving has become a bad guy who punches his teammates hard in his eyes.

He hates people who speak ill of their teammates the most, such people make him feel sick.

So as soon as the game continued, Westbrook uttered harsh words to Irving: "You stupid, dirty guy who hurt your teammates, wait, I'm going to stuff your head in your ass."

Owen was also very tough. He looked at Westbrook with the eyes of a fool, and said contemptuously: "Who? Just because you are a guy with muscles in your head? Who do you think you are? Michael?"

In the next round, Westbrook held the ball across half court, came to the three-point line and glared at Irving viciously.

Westbrook broke through with the ball, and his first step was very fast, almost passing Irving in one step.

After Westbrook passed Irving in one step, he faced Green who was supplementing the defense and forcibly scored with a dunk! !

After scoring the goal, he yelled at Owen viciously: "You can't guard me, you can't guard anyone!!"

"You are a bug who can only use those disgusting and dirty methods to harm your teammates!"

Irving almost smashed the ball in Westbrook's face on another impulse.

This trash talk is too unkind! !
In the next round, Irving came to the top of the arc and also chose to single out Westbrook.

Owen also spoke unforgivingly, hooked his fingers, ignored Harden in front of him, and challenged Master Wei:

"Come on, idiot, try to prevent me."

Amid the cheers of the fans, Westbrook pushed Harden away and stood in front of Irving.

Master Wei just came up, and Owen took advantage of his unpreparedness and directly scored a three-pointer from the spot.

"brush."

The basketball flew straight to the basket and fell into the net.

Jianghu team 100 to 100 Curry team. In the last 2 minutes before the end of the third quarter, with Irving's three-pointer, the Curry team overtook the score. This is the first time they have taken the lead in the game.

Irving kept his shot posture and taunted Westbrook: "Stupid guy, is your defense good? Are all your muscles used to move bricks?"

Hearing Owen's provocation, Westbrook's nostrils, which were not small, became even more angry.

"There is not much difference in personal strength between the two of them, and it is difficult for either of them to guard against the other!!"

"But for the Jianghu team, the good thing is that if Kyrie gets into a fight with Russell, it will destroy the overall offensive rhythm of the Curry team, and the close tacit understanding between them will be useless!!!"

"Rahaner has never been a hot-tempered player, but Irving's operation of accidentally injuring Jianghu made Russell a little angry. At this moment, Jiang is his teammate, and Russell wants to express his anger for his teammates."

"He has always been a loyal player and never allowed others to bully his brother on the field!!!

Owen continued to attack, but Master Wei learned the lesson of the previous ball, and in this round he stuck to Irving so as not to give him room to dribble.

It took a lot of effort for Irving to break through Westbrook's defense and shoot directly from the mid-range.But his shot was a bit short, and it was obvious that his physical strength was drained quickly from the fight just now.

The last 2 minutes of the third quarter turned into a one-on-one show between Westbrook and Irving. The other players on both sides tacitly did not interfere with them and chose to stand aside to watch the game.

At the end of the three quarters, Jianghu team 109 to 109 Curry team.The two sides were tied, and after the end of the game, Westbrook stood up and took control of the game. During this period of time, the young master played a good efficiency, breaking through the basket for a tomahawk dunk, mid-range zombie jumper, and scored 3 points with an efficiency of 6 of 5 shots in just 11 minutes.

Although Irving's physical fitness is not as strong as Westbrook, there is still no problem in a short-term confrontation. The efficiency of scoring 7 points on 5 of 12 shots is comparable to that of Westbrook.
