Chapter 196 The Warriors' All-Star Lineup
Compared with the outside shooting ability, the Warriors are not weak against each other. Zhang Chen and Larry Hughes increased their impact, and Jamison and Arenas got a lot of shooting opportunities.

In addition, it caused a certain amount of damage to the opponent's inside line, and the result was that the Kings' defense became a show, which was completely put on display.

However, they do have a set of offense and have maintained a good efficiency.

The Warriors want to beat their opponents, and the Kings want to beat the Warriors even more, so as to have a chance to unseat the opponent, the No. [-] in the Western Conference, so the Kings are also fighting hard in this game.

"The Warriors' defensive effect on the perimeter has come out. The Kings are now more of an inside offense. Webber has increased his post-up, because Jamison can keep up with his footsteps. This time he must rely on strength to fight. Although the Princeton system One-on-one inside players is very important inside, but this game the king seems to be forced to do so."

"But it's still hard to see which team will laugh at the end. Although the Warriors made the Kings' ball flow not so smooth, the Kings continued to score."

The home team of the Kings crazily supported the team and defeated the Warriors to become the best team in the Western Conference. What a desirable thing.

Webber enjoyed the cheers from the fans. After the Kings increased their inside offense, he appeared more often in the low post, because Jamison can be defended from the high post, and it is more effective for Divac to respond near the free throw line. efficiency.

After receiving an outside pass, the Warriors did not come to double-team him. He singled Jamison again, but this time he clearly felt that the people behind him were more active in competing with him. Before he saw Zhang Chen and Jamison. In communication, can we limit him by talking a few more words?

The feint, the small hook after turning around, this set is very smooth.

Without moving away, Chris Webber was taken aback, flicked his wrist and turned it into a pick. His ability to temporarily change the defense of the shot is extremely rare among big men, but it still affected some strength, and the basketball turned around the hoop. The circle was grabbed by the Warriors.

The Warriors didn't seek quickness. Arenas dribbled the ball to Larry Hughes after halftime, and Larry Hughes hung it to Zhang Chen, who was leaning on the defender. Zhang Chen turned his back at a 45-degree position. Push forward, suddenly the rhythm changes suddenly, turn around and accelerate and rush inside.

At this time, Larry Hughes had already run to the other side and cut in. The cooperation between the two of them had been successful many times in this game, and the attention of the defenders had been attracted. Zhang Chen had already squeezed past him. The close-fitting Peja made the movement of sending the ball to the side with one hand.

The defender's eyes followed the ball in his hand and looked to the side, but this time Zhang Chen didn't pass it out, and grabbed the ball back with his hand. The fake pass made the opponent's defense briefly gap, Zhang Chen At the start, Chen changed hands and stretched his arms sideways, and the basketball was smoothly wiped into the frame.

This is just a defensive rhythm between the two sides, but as the game progressed, the Warriors did better and better. The Kings just kept their offensive efficiency and could no longer guarantee victory.

However, it is easy to loosen and difficult to tighten up. It is difficult to raise the defense when some physical strength has been consumed. Besides, each team has its own style. The Kings are not the main defensive team. It could be a wheel battle against Zhang Chen, but the effect can only be said to be average.

The fact that the Kings did not succeed in seeking change does not mean that the Warriors will not succeed in seeking change. In the last quarter, the Warriors shrunk their defense and pinched the opponent's inside line. Ready.

This is a problem of the continuity of the feel, and of course it is also affected by the status seal.

In the eyes of others, it is entirely because the Warriors have excellent execution and the Kings can't keep up.

At 121:107, both teams scored high points, but the Warriors won the 13th game in a row.

Perhaps this game put too much energy on the defensive end. In the back-to-back games on the second day, the Warriors' winning streak was ended again. The three-point difference of 102:105 was not inferior to the Timberwolves. Garnett was in a hot state throughout the game , Billups made two consecutive three-pointers at the last moment, and the Warriors had no choice but to accept the defeat.

But in the next three home games, they all won, and they defeated the Jazz, Grizzlies and Spurs successively. In the last game in January, they defeated the Rockets away. After losing three games, they continued to lead the standings.

As far as Zhang Chen is concerned, is his scoring average now close to 33 points? In addition, rebounds and assists have remained stable at around 8.5. In addition, steals and blocks are also averaging around 2.5 times per game. In the regular season MVP rankings, he maintains Also some time in the first place.

The strong performance of the team and individual also allowed him to once again sit on the position of the All-Star vote leader. Although he refused to participate in the three-point contest and the slam dunk contest this year, his scoring was a little less than last year, but the vote leader is the vote leader. He is still the fan's favorite player.

From an unknown player to the most popular star player, he has never failed in singing all the way. Although it is unbelievable, he is definitely a representative of inspiration. His success will intensify the hard work of more children with dreams. This is what the league is willing to recognize. important reason for him.

Of course, the most important thing is his strength. The NBA is a very realistic place. Even if the former god returns, there are not many people who respect the old and love the young, but Jordan was still selected by the fans as the All-Star starter.

The 2002 All-Star Weekend is approaching, and the rosters for the main game have also been determined. Vince Carter, who is the most popular in the East, and O'Neal, who is the second most popular in the West, are absent due to injuries. They are replaced by Antoine Walker. and Chris Webber.

Webber did not rank in the top two at the forward position this time, not because Duncan and Garnett had more votes than him, but because of Jamison's cross-cutting. The four of them actually had almost the same number of votes, and Duncan and Jamison slightly won. , Webber also replaced O'Neal in the starting lineup, and Garnett could only be wronged and play as a substitute.

In addition to Zhang Chen and Jamison being the starters for the Warriors, Larry Hughes was also selected as a substitute. Last season's championship team had such a good record this season.

Then the Western All-Star players are, starters: Zhang Chen, Kobe Bryant, Antawn Jamison, Tim Duncan, Chris Webber, other players include Steve Francis, Larry Hugh S, Wally Szczerbiak, Peja Stojkovic, Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Elton Brand.

The head coach of the Western All-Stars is of course the Warriors head coach Dave Cowens who seems to be entering the group of powerful coaches in the past two seasons.

The Eastern Conference All-Star players include, starters: Jason Kidd, Allen Iverson, Michael Jordan, Antawn Walker, Dikembe Mutombo, other players include Tracy Mack Grady, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, Baron Davis, Shareef Abdul-Rahim, Jermaine O'Neal, Alonzo Mourning.

The head coach of the Eastern All-Star is the Nets head coach Byron Scott, whose performance has been rising after Kidd was traded.

Zhang Chen did not participate in the three-point contest and the dunk contest, which does not mean that no one from the Warriors participated. The rookies in their team are very eager for this opportunity to show their faces.

Gerald - Wallace participated in the dunk contest, his opponents are Jason - Richardson, Desmond - Mason, Steve - Francis.

Gilbert Arenas in the three-point contest against Peja Stojakovic, Ray Allen, Steve Nash, Wesley Persson, Quentin Lee Chadson, Mike Miller, Paul Pierce.

In addition, Arenas was also selected for the first-year lineup of the All-Star Rookie Game. The rookies selected with him were Tony Parker, Jason Richardson, Jamal Tinsley, Paul - Gasol, Shane Battier, Brandon Haywood, Joe Johnson, Andrei Kirilenko.

Their opponents, the second-year team players are Quentin Richardson, Mike Miller, Richard Jefferson, Lee Neilon, Chris Mihm, Marcus Fizer , Darius Miles, Desmond Mason, Hedo Turkoglu.

For the All-Stars, the Warriors have people in every event, but unlike last year when Zhang Chen participated in three events alone, they appear to be full of talents this season. Show off your talents in other competitions.

"I have great confidence in my teammates. You don't even know how good they are. They sacrificed some personal data for the team's victory. Maybe they will shine in your eyes during the All-Star Weekend." For entertainment activities like celebrities, Zhang Chen was of course bragging and not drafting when he was interviewed.

But due to Zhang Chen's god-level performance in the last All-Star Weekend, his words were endowed with other meanings, such as a declaration of victory, or a provocation to other opponents.

This is also an exaggerated operation method used by the NBA to attract attention. The old fritters in the league know what is going on, but there are also some who don't know. Except for most fans, it is only cute rookies who can take these words seriously. .

Arenas and Gerald Wallace were very angry when they saw reports in the newspapers blatantly denying Zhang Chen's speech, thinking it was his shameless statement to avoid the game.

Especially Arenas, although he often talks back to Zhang Chen, he actually admires Zhang Chen very much. Those guys satirized Zhang Chen and belittled him by the way, and he almost went berserk, "Zhang, I will definitely let these guys see , as far as those opponents are concerned, I don't need you to take action personally, I will definitely win."
