NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 203 My Money! ! ! !

During the intermission, the reporters on the sidelines were also interviewing Shaq, the general manager of the Shaq team, who was behind at this time.

"Shaq, we all know that you and Charles made the picks for the rookie game. You first chose two defenders." The reporter paused for a while, waiting for O'Neal to respond.

"Yes, Kyrie Irving was the best rookie last year, and Lillard is also the best defender this year. I love their performances. They are great." O'Neal replied.

"OK, Kyrie and Damian are both very good defenders, but one is an All-Star and the other is a first-year rookie. Why would you choose Lillard first?"

"Look, Owen, he's an All-Star, tomorrow he's in the [-]-point shootout, the day after tomorrow it's a more important All-Star game, he has more things to do, so he might not work as hard, and Lila Germany is different, I need his full effort." O'Neill said seriously.

"Back to the game, your inside line is being ravaged by Chen Xiao. He scored 100 points with a nearly 23% shooting rate. At the same time, your team is also 23 points behind. You will regret not choosing a player with better defensive ability. Good insider, maybe after Charles chooses Chen Xiao, you can choose Davis first." The reporter's question made the corner of O'Neill's mouth twitch slightly.

O'Neal has already thought about Barkley's face after the game. 23 points ~ 23 points ~ 23 points at halftime. Many people in the audience dare not think about it, 46? 58?O'Neill felt a little panicked thinking about it.

"Emm, actually we had Andre Drummond, he was a good center, but unfortunately, he got injured, he came to the sideline but couldn't play. You know, the game has infinite possibilities , There is still half the game, I believe in my players." O'Neill chose to speak hard.

During the intermission, we exchanged feelings, and when it was over, we continued to play in the second half.

The Shaq team kicked off, and Irving took the ball and didn't directly play singles. He also passed the ball to his teammates to cooperate.

The ball finally reached Lillard's hands, Director Li wanted to pass a hammer, and directly shot a three-pointer.

"哐" missed, Chen Xiao, who had no rebound position, looked at his thick eyebrows and tried to get the rebound, but the rebound was taken by Leonard, who was in a better position.

"Brows, don't think about losing what you have." Chen Xiao nodded his little brother.

Then came to the frontcourt, Chen Xiao, who came according to the established idea, didn't ask for the ball, and watched Leonard play one, but the upbeat Mi Dou stopped Xiaoka.

Now, I'm not being polite.

Chen Xiao walked around in front of Leonard, got the ball, took two rare moves, and strode forward.

Facing the starting Chen Xiao, I don't know if the Sharks arranged something in the midfield. Cavaliers' rookie Zeller also raised his hands and came up to fight.

But to no avail, Chen Xiao jumped up and made a layup easily.

"Nice Pass, Kahuai." On the way back to defense, Chen Xiao greeted Xiaoka.

I don't know if it counts as an assist after catching the ball hand-in-hand.But it doesn't matter, Chen Xiao himself gave Leonard a credit.

Then the Shaq team scored 14 points in the first half, Irving made persistent efforts, made three-pointers, broke through everything, and scored 8 points in a row. Driven by it, Parsons and Lillard also hit one after another, three-point rain The huge offensive tide brought about, all of a sudden approached the point difference to just over 10 points.

In this kind of game, a 10-point difference is nothing. It's just a matter of raising your hand.

After scoring 25 points on the first goal, he has been "on the sidelines". Chen Xiao, who gave his teammates a chance to perform, has to think about it now. Ka really couldn't stand it.

I have to work hard.

However, exerting strength does not mean taking the initiative to take the ball. On a stage like the All-Star Rookie Game, it always feels too serious to take the ball and hit the back. It is too solid. Others are calm. You are so hard?

But Chen Xiao had his own plan. Rubio and Bill continued to shoot. Chen Xiao waved his hand to reassure them to shoot.

At this time, it was not only the offensive end, but the Shaq team, seeing the hope of chasing points, also showed seriousness on the defensive end.

"My basket!" Chen Xiao yelled in his heart, and he took control of the rebound with both hands, and at the same time, before his feet landed, he pointed the ball towards the basket.

The basketball fell softly into the basket, stopping the bleeding for Team Chuck while boosting their score to 27 points.

Afterwards, Rubio, who hadn't gotten an assist, didn't do well either. Shooting was not his favorite, mainly because he couldn't make a shot after many attempts.

Jintong and Chen Xiao, who were holding the ball in the backcourt, said that they would have an alley-oop.

"OK." Chen Xiao, who was unambiguous about helping his teammates get assists, expressed his understanding.

Alley catch, this Chen Xiaoshu, not only Chen Xiaoshu, but also Walker who is on the court at this time is also very familiar.

Chen Xiao, who came to the top of the arc and made a fake pick-and-roll for Rubio, turned around and went down. Rubio, who broke through two steps, threw the ball high on the board.

Chen Xiao, who rushed into the paint, was held back by a "teammate" and couldn't fully get up. He could only raise one arm high, grasp the ball in mid-air, and swing the ball towards the basket before it fell.

Before the "swish", Griffin smashed the dunk, followed by Chen Xiao, and the basketball was added to the basket.

"Oh, it's scary if the ball is dunked in. It's a one-armed dunk." The commentator exclaimed, regretting that it wasn't a dunk.

Chen Xiao, who scored the 29th point of the game, landed, turned around and looked at Bobcat No. 22, who had been disturbed by the ball.

Good, good, very aggressive defensively.Chen Xiao, who is not easy to use body language to praise kindly in the public, nodded to Mi Dou to give encouragement.

The kind and friendly eyes shot from both eyes made Mi Dou look away, scratching his head, a little sad, he didn't know whether he was worried about Chen Xiao not being defended, or worried about his disobedient left foot subconsciously defending, and returned to the Charlotte wasn't fired for stepping left foot first into the locker room, was she?

Rubio, who found the feeling, rushed to the bottom line quickly, and swung the ball with his right hand to the diagonal three-point line.

The ball was a bit off, but Leonard, who was nearby, still took the ball and made a three-pointer.

"Whoosh!" The basketball fell straight into the basket and made a loud and clear friction sound with the net, causing Chen Xiao to return without success.

Today's Leonard seems to be the Leonard who faced the Bobcats in the last game. It feels like a three-pointer is shot. It may be that the two Bobcats away jerseys on the opposite side inspired the robot's three-point switch.

As the Chuck team responded to the offensive, the point difference that was once chased by the O'Neal team to just over 10 points was pulled back to 20 points again.

Indeed, 10 points is a fart, and it is common to both sides.

Irving, Lillard and other Shaq players who might have wanted to seriously look for opportunities saw that there were no opportunities, so they relaxed again.

Scores are still to be scored, and dunks will continue to be dunked, but the atmosphere can be relaxed, hello, hello, hello everyone.

The commentators are also keenly aware of the change in the wind direction of the situation. According to their words, it seems that it is impossible to guard against it, so how can you chase after more than 20 points?
Obviously I just stopped chasing, started playing music and started dancing!

A few minutes before the opening of the second half, the game became a little more intense. The game with a rapidly narrowing point difference made the fans quite excited, but then it fell into a lively but not intense scene. The fans could only turn their attention from the overall situation back to their own attention. player of.

"Give the ball to Chen Xiao, you just patronize yourself and hit it, right?"

"Chen Xiao has more than 30 points, but none of his teammates has 20 points, and the ones upstairs are almost there."

"What's the matter? The number of shots in the first half was indeed high, but based on the current calculation, the shots are only 3 or 4 times more than others, isn't it too much? The efficiency is high, and the pass can be scored. That wave of chasing points Didn't Chen Xiao make great contributions?"

"Rubio's willingness to pass the ball to Chen Xiao makes sense. He can score. There is no way. Now, out of the 10 assists on Rubio's body, 7 or 8 of them come from Chen Xiao."

"Swipe each other, brush each other, one for points, one for assists."

At this moment, Rubio, who was holding the ball at the top of the arc, flicked his arm and sent out a second pass. This time, it was a thick-eyebrow catch and a dunk. Chen Xiao, who had scored enough points, also stepped aside and stood aside on the court. VIP audience, let thick eyebrows also stretch their muscles.In the next few minutes, the score difference remained at around 25 points. The starting players who had played a lot of playing time may have been tired of dunking, and the game also fell into a three-point battle. You come and shoot one, and I will shoot another. The stagnant rhythm makes The fans were also a little uninterested.

The coaches who had been making arrangements on the sidelines took action, and Winters, the Bobcats' first assistant coach, called a timeout.

"Coach, I can leave the game and let others come on." Chen Xiao said hello to his teammates. The coach of the rookie team is the first assistant coach of the team with the best record. He is one of our own. If you really want to play more Yes, that's not a simple matter.

Chen Xiao, who was better off sitting on the sidelines and drinking Kardella than running back and forth, also got off the court to rest as he wished.

He has played 20 minutes and scored 36 points, which is enough for everyone, enough.

"After the timeout, we can see that the Chuck team chose to replace Chen Xiao with Faried. Chen Xiao, who played 20 minutes, has scored 36 points, which is far from the 09 points left by Kevin Durant in 46. The difference in scoring records is actually not too big. Durant played 31 minutes in that game. According to this standard, it is still easy for Chen Xiao to score 10 points in 10 minutes. However, Chen Xiao chose to leave the game to show respect for me. "The commentator said with emotion.

The basketball is flying around in the air, not only the fans find it boring, but the commentators also turned the topic to the more anticipated game tomorrow.

Among the several individual events, the slam dunk contest, which crowned the trapeze, was naturally the most anticipated.

Faried, who will be replaced, was a little excited, broke the tacit understanding on the court, tried to block Zeller who was about to be dunked, fouled, and sent Zeller to the free throw line.

Zeller also felt very wronged. Before Chen Xiao hit me, I couldn't do anything about it. Now you, Faried, are also bullying me and not letting me score, right?

"Faried will participate in the dunk contest tomorrow. Do you think he has a chance?"

"I think, I personally think, it's not close. I'm still more optimistic about James White."

The two commentators smiled tacitly, and said at the same time, "With White here, everyone else has washed up and slept", "When White comes out, the gods will retreat."

The two talked about White's amazing performance in the dunk competition in Eastern Europe two years ago, and were amazed.

The commentators are so sure, but the fans have different opinions.

"You know what the ultimate dunk king is? He takes off from the free throw line and dunks with both hands. This is his signature move."

"It's true that he can jump, but it feels like his dribbling is really bad, he stumbles, and it doesn't feel good. I don't like it."

"It is said that White has prepared 5 dunks that are enough to get a full score. Let's wait and see."

And as time passed, the Rookie Challenge also came to an end.

There are less than 3 minutes left, the score has reached 152:124, less than 180 seconds, 28 points difference, the Shaq team wants to recover, they have to ask McGrady who is sitting on the sidelines to come up and save, one is not enough , get three hits.

Parsons sent Lillard an alley-oop from beyond the three-point line. Lillard missed a dunk, and there was a pity on the sidelines.

Rubio, who was still on the field, felt itchy hands when he saw this. At this time, his best partner Chen Xiao was already watching the game from the sidelines. While searching, he found that Leonard was already sprinting quickly on the sideline.

Rubio understood the situation and threw the ball towards the basket as soon as it passed the center line.

At half-court distance, the basketball still flew steadily to the right position. Leonard stepped on the step and took off to catch the ball smoothly with both hands, press down, and dunk.

The half-time alley-oop also won a round of applause.

Sitting next to Chen Xiao at the venue was a familiar face, Saige, who didn't wear a floral suit today but still wore a bright red tie.

"Chen, let's have a short interview. Which game are you most looking forward to tomorrow?" Saige handed the microphone marked NBA to Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao smiled, everyone answered this question with the same answer: "Slam Dunk Contest, I look forward to the performance of the three dunkers representing the Eastern Conference this year."

Just as Chen Xiao and Saige were asking and answering questions, the situation on the field had changed drastically. After taking turns for alley-oop dunks, the last minute became a complete rookie slam dunk contest.

Seeing a teammate dunking a crotch, Director Li also felt itchy, took the ball and strode forward, jumped up, turned around, folded, and made a layup.

Here, Lillard's back dunk did not turn into a layup, and the slam dunk contestant Faried came over with a two-handed windmill, but the taste was still almost there. Chen Xiao gave a maximum of 38 points.

Amidst the sound of dunks, the game ended. The Chuck team won the opponent 160:132, and 160 points also broke the previous single-team scoring record of 155 points in the All-Star Rookie Game.But according to such a non-defensive rhythm, it is not uncommon to break every year.

After the game, in front of 20 teammates and teammates (including Drummond who was injured and unable to play, who was unable to play but still got it), Chen Xiao took over the All-Star rookie game MVP trophy representing the most valuable player.

"Chen, congratulations, you played 20 minutes and scored 36 points and 9 rebounds. You are the well-deserved MVP of today's game!" Saeg, the host, asked with a smile.

"Thank you, thank you to my selfless teammates, they believed in me, when the basketball reaches the place where you can reach, I believe not only me, but also my teammates, they can get so much, thank you, Ricky , Bradley, and everyone else." Chen Xiao made a wave of acceptance speeches, giving the credit to his teammates.

"In addition to your personal high score, your team also set a new scoring record, 160 points, tell us how you got so many points." Saige continued to ask.

"Keep focused and devote ourselves to the game. We came here with the determination to win, we feel good, and the basket has more favors for us." In the game without defense, the more accurate shots can only be attributed to Good luck, Chen Xiao answered this question honestly.

Afterwards, under the special lighting of the arena, Chen Xiao, who held the trophy not once or twice, lifted the ordinary trophy with a five-pointed star engraved on the black background while the host gave the award.

The fans cheered enthusiastically, which was far from the big scene Chen Xiao had experienced before. With a smile on his face, Chen Xiao showed the trophy around and paid tribute to the fans who supported him.

After the awards were given, the players left in groups.

"Show me, show me." Middleton grabbed the trophy from Chen Xiao's hand and began to play with it.

Look at Mi Dou's unpromising appearance, just a rookie MVP.

But in retrospect, Chen Xiao still felt a little risky. In the first half, Chen Xiao scored 23 points, with a high shot and a high hit. Play well, be high-spirited.

Unexpectedly, Faried, who was still tepid in the first half, scored 10 points in the second half and just took the ball. The last dunk raised the score to 28 points, second only to Chen Xiao in the team. Two high marks.

And Chen Xiao, who was as stable as Mount Tai after the second half, also received unanimous praise from the media fans.

"Chen Xiao is fine. I apologize. I misunderstood him. Compared with Faried, Chen Xiao seems to have nothing to do. He just sat there like saying that I'm not interested in scoring."

"This is the demeanor of an All-Star starter. Don't waste teammates' passes, share the ball when the team is going well, stand up when the team is not going well, and applaud off the court when teammates are doing well. A true leader, List!"

"Look at the awards scene, Drummond's Faried behind him, they really want this, but it's a pity that one person can't play, and one person's performance is still not good enough."

After the game, Chen Xiao, who checked Bluebird and Weibo, didn't feel much about the above speech. He was a little tired after bragging too much. The following one made Chen Xiao happy.

"Fried should be the most serious person on the field. He engraved on his face that I want to score and I want MVP, but this is not a bad thing. I suggest that the league can create a double yolk egg to satisfy his wish. I don't think Chen would mind, just like he shared the best of the month with LeBron before."

My sister also said that I don't mind, isn't it because the alliance didn't ask me at all.

After the game, the players of the Chuck team really got rewarded for scoring points. Each of the winners could get 2 Dao Le, which was just enough for a large fine from the league.

"Shxt, Shaq, pick me to your bad team, my [-], my money." Middleton, who couldn't repay Chen Xiao's thighs, broke through the ceiling with resentment.
