Chapter 169 New Stage
The two most efficient offensive players are in the West, Xiang Chu is one, and Durant is the other.
One of them has the most accurate shots from the outside, and the other has the strongest threat inside.
Compared with the rookie game, Xiang Chu is more refreshing at this time. If you give him Durant, so what if the team has fewer shooters, an all-round upgraded version of Gallinari.
With a helper like Gallinari, Xiang Chu can lead the team to the top four in the Western Conference. If there is Durant, he will lose if his record is not the first in the league.
Of course, just thinking about it, the Nuggets can't handle an All-Star like Durant.
Not to mention Durant, it is estimated that Irving is not for sale, and Xiang Chu can only play in the All-Stars.
In the first half, the two sides came and went, and the game was very intense. Those who know the game will think it is a bit fake, but seeing so many star players playing together, not many people mind.
At the end of the first half, the Western Conference led by 69 points at 65:4.
This score is normal for an All-Star. All-Star level players have a relatively high shooting percentage. In addition, there is no system of defense, so they will definitely score more.
During the intermission, the head coach Popovich just briefly talked about the situation, and smiled and asked the players to discuss tactics with a tactical board.
An old player like Kobe is more active at this time, and he is addicted to coaching with Paul.
The second half will definitely be more intense than the first half, partly because of the need to determine the outcome, but also because players who don't play much will reduce their playing time, and the field is full of players who want to play, so it will naturally become more intense.
However, at the beginning of the third quarter, everyone still couldn't hold back their face, and even deliberately entertained them. The scores of the two sides also seemed to be entangled, but it was completely different from the official game.
Xiang Chuke couldn't control that much, and dunked whenever he got the chance, which was similar to Faried in the rookie game.
Also as an insider, Howard is different from him. Howard still wants to play three-pointers.
However, Howard will not play for too long after saying hello. The insiders did not perform as well as the outsiders in the All-Stars, and they are also worried about their health. Except for Xiang Chu and Griffin, the insiders in the West will not play too much.
Both of them are dunks, and the audience likes it very much.
Xiang Chu didn't have any hypocrisy either, he came to the All-Stars to show himself.
"Xiang Chu dunked again. He and Durant are the players with the most points in the game. Is it possible that Xiang Chu won the MVP for the first time in the All-Star Game?"
"Xiang Chu got another rebound. He really did well."
After playing again, Xiang Chu was particularly active, because of his advantage in the interior, the West also took the lead steadily.
But at the last moment, Popovich replaced him, not against him, but to give Harden a chance to play at home. The winning lineup became a small lineup like the Eastern Conference.
Now Xiang Chu's data is already good, with 26 points and 15 rebounds, which can be regarded as the only one.
The East finally put up a three-forward lineup of James, Anthony and Paul George, but because of the shooting percentage, it still could not be reversed, and the West won for three consecutive years.
The All-Star MVP is generally given to the player with the highest score. Durant scored 30 points, but he was not the final MVP. This honor went to Paul.
Paul has the most assists, and there is no hard target for the All-Star MVP. It is probably because Durant won the MVP last time, and this time it should be given to other players.
Xiang Chu's qualifications are still a little low, otherwise he can just give it to him.
He is just a little regretful, and next time, he will definitely get it with his absolute strength.
However, the fans who supported him online didn't buy it. They scolded the league for a few days, and they also scolded Popovich bloody.
At this time, Xiang Chu had already calmed down and was fully committed to preparing for the final stage of the regular season.
And through the hustle and bustle of the All-Star Weekend, the popularity value on the system has also risen rapidly, and has broken through the [-] mark. The next skill should be drawn before the playoffs. Xiang Chu is looking forward to it.
The Nuggets had a game the next day after the All-Star weekend, but it was at home, and Xiang Chu adjusted well.
Both he and Farid are still a little excited, but he hides it better.
Farid's loud voice was heard from afar, "Today we must take revenge."
Lost to the Celtics before the All-Star, now it is justified to say that it is revenge, but the buddy is just venting his energy.
The team members next to them all had caring eyes for the mentally retarded, but they were also envious of Xiang Chu and Farid's limelight at the All-Stars.
But they have to defend this home game. After the previous losing streak, the Grizzlies are only half a game away from them. If they lose again, they will fall to the top four in the West.
The Celtics got the upper hand at the beginning, and Bradley beat Ty Lawson hard.
Ty Lawson is still physically strong, but his strength is helpful in offense, but he is average in defense, which has something to do with his height and defensive awareness.
Fortunately, Gallinari's form was quicker this time. He joined forces with Xiang Chu and gradually helped the team catch up with the score.
During the game, Xiang Chu savored the joy of being an All-Star, but the reality is still a bit more difficult.
But the Celtics were more difficult than them, and Garnett was so stunned by him that he didn't dare to enter the three-second zone.
In the rotation lineup, Jeff Green still played very well. The key is that the Nuggets really have no players on the bench who can match him, but their old Miller and Brewer played well.
It's a pity that Chandler is still unstable, and he has been tortured by injuries this season.
In order to fight against Xiang Chu, the Celtics got out the inside line at the bottom of the box.
Veteran Jason Collins and rookie Fab Melo both got a chance to play, but they just replaced Garnett and suffered abuse, and they couldn't stop Xiang Chu at all.
For Xiang Chu, the general wheel tactics didn't work at all.
The Celtics' Pierce is not in good shape this time. Generally, players who want to become veterans are like this. They can't do it after playing for a long time, and they can't do it after a long rest. This is a natural law.
Unable to win inside, the core players are weak, and now the Celtics rely entirely on the Nuggets' poor defense on the outside to support the score. Bradley and Courtney Lee both scored in double figures, so they were not suppressed by the Nuggets.
Courtney Lee hit the buzzer at the end of the first half, and the Celtics ended the second quarter with a 1-point lead.
George Karl had a bad face during the halftime break, "Gentlemen, the break is over, you have to get up, this is Denver, you can't let the opponent score like that, you should teach them some lessons, understand."
George Karl made a badass move, telling the players to be tough.
Basketball rules do not seem to support physical confrontation, but on the court, the situation is completely different, and players who are afraid of confrontation can't get along well.
At the end of the intermission, Xiang Chu took the lead to walk on the court, "Let's take down our opponents."
