Chapter 227 [Two Mentalities, Stars Within Stars]

There was no timeout in the first year, James brought the ball to the frontcourt, Prince defended in the middle, and the players pulled away.

At this time, the star will often choose to go head-to-head, just like two Western cowboys who face off and draw a gun to fight to the death.

The key attack, but James hesitated.

He was worried about not being able to shoot, Prince was a good defensive guy, he had learned in the regular season, and if he didn't score, the team would lose to him.

The flaws in James's personality began to show, he did not dare to take responsibility, and he missed key shots, and he would have a hard time all night.

This is the difference between him and Wang Jun, so Wang Jun reaches out on the right side and is ready to catch the ball at any time.

When Wang Jun encounters this kind of thing, he thinks: This is what I have to do, and I should do it, because I am the most accurate, and everyone else has to stand aside.

Even if he loses, because he loses it himself, he will be very down-to-earth. He would be very depressed when someone else missed, and he would keep thinking, maybe I would have scored this goal.

Prince's defense is indeed very good, but he is 206CM tall and weighs only 95 kilograms, which is very thin.

Another weakness of James is that he is not good at back-to-back offense and is used to breaking through the frame, which makes it difficult to get rid of Prince.

James considered whether to pass the ball to Wang Jun, and Murray didn't defend very well.

If Wang Jun scores and wins, the MVP is estimated to be in hand, which makes him a little jealous.

At this moment, he fully understood the reason why Wang Jun was reluctant to join forces with him, a team can have two cores, but it has to be like Jordan and Pippen, and distinguish priorities.

Jordan was the main one, Pippen was the second, and the Bulls won six championships. But Pippen has regrets, he has been the second child all his life, is he really willing?

James opted for passing. Given to Anthony on the left.

Anthony's single-handedness to Stadamyre is a natural misalignment, and this choice is smarter.

Anthony turned around and shook his face for a moment, took a step to the baseline, and made a quick pull-up jumper.

He moves beautifully, dodging the block, but it's a bit quick. And I didn't choose between finding the board and finding the frame, and I threw a ball to find the frame at 45 degrees, but I didn't score.

"Missed...... Rebound! Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

With only five seconds left, as long as a sophomore wins this rebound, it's almost equivalent to winning the game.

Nene breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Anthony miss the shot, he knew that Bosh had pulled out of the perimeter, didn't get out of position with him, and the ball bounced in his direction again. It's a win.

At this time, there is no time to let up, Nene is not a person who is good at grabbing rebounds.

On the Nuggets, the person in charge of grabbing rebounds is Camby, and Nene specializes in relying on mobility to defend pick-and-rolls.

AS A BIG MAN WITH A HEIGHT OF 211CM, NENE PLAYED 33 MINUTES AND AVERAGED ONLY 6.5 REBOUNDS PER GAME, TWO OF WHICH WERE FRONTCOURT REBOUNDS. His problem is a lack of motivation to protect rebounds in the backcourt.

In the NBA, sometimes half a second of hesitation can change the outcome of a game. Just like last year's All-Star Game, O'Neal Jr. fouled Kobe Bryant at the end of the regular season, ruining Jordan's retirement performance.

Wang Jun looked at Anthony with the ball. I knew that the ball would not be passed again.

He got rid of Bosh from the right side and immediately slashed diagonally into the box and rushed to the front court to rebound.

There is a big difference in stature between Wang Jun and Nene that even if he judges the right direction, it will be difficult to take it down, so he jumps with all his strength and tries his best to move the ball to the basket with one hand.

Even if you don't enter. A teammate may also grab a rebound on the other side, and Nene noticed that Wang Jun jumped late after rushing up, and the three fingers of Wang's right hand successfully touched the basketball.

At this moment, the audience was quiet, everyone held their breath and waited for the result.

The ball touched the rebound slightly. landed on the basket, and gently tossed it again, in! 140 to 139.

Wang Jun hit the basket, and the fans in the audience let out a neat cheer and applauded vigorously.

"In! The ball is in! Yu Jia shouted: "Wang Jun made up for the basket and shot a quasi-lore, I can't believe it, his performance is too good this time!" ”

Zhang Li breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "The key frontcourt rebound is also the only frontcourt rebound he has in this game, which is so beautiful." 40 points, he also reached 10 rebounds, and as long as the sophomore doesn't finish at the end, he will definitely be the MVP today. ”

With 3.7 seconds to go, the sophomore had one more chance to attack, and Coach Cooper called a timeout to arrange the final attack.

The fans were hooked, and there was still suspense in the game.

According to common sense, it is more certain to give Murray a shot, he has a very hot hand today, scored 23 points and 10 assists, and played very well.

But Murray is an unknown player, only the sixth man in the SuperSonics, and his presence is weak, so the coach chose Stoudeyer.

"Amare takes the ball on the perimeter and takes advantage of your height, Tyshawn, this serve is crucial, you have to pass accurately."

Xiao Si played the longest time between the two teams today, and the efficiency was not low, with 36 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists, and if he scored this stunner, he would lead the team to win and win the MVP.

But he is not suitable for shooting, as an inside line, not being able to rely on teammates to cover the ball is one thing, on the other hand, he is good at air cutting, not holding the ball to shoot, and the mid-range shot is also after blocking and dismantling.

Yao Ming went down to rest, the coach wouldn't let him come up to shoot the lore, if he wanted to take advantage of his height, Yao Ming's pitch was actually more suitable than Xiao Si.

The first-year team took advantage of the timeout to send players who were good at defense, and Carman replaced Wang Jun, and the coach specifically asked Bosh to follow Xiaosi.

Counterpoint Bosh, Xiao Si's height of 208CM What is the advantage?

At the end of the timeout, a few big muscular men stood there, and it was not easy to score.

Xiao Si, who played 35 minutes, was already very tired, he barely received the ball and dribbled a step, and shot under the interference of Bosh, which was more outrageous, a three-way non-stick.

Carman picked up the basketball and held it in his arms, and the sophomore didn't have time to step forward to foul him, and the game was over.

The fans gave a round of applause to the newcomers, it was the most exciting rookie game in recent years, the two sides staged a lot of wonderful dunks, and the last ten minutes were still very intense.

won the game in the first grade, but James was not very excited, and came up to hug Wang Jun, smiling a little bitterly.

Zhang Li sighed: "There are tactical problems in the second grade, Stadamire has played for too long, Yao Ming is very physical, if Yao Ming is allowed to cast in the end, maybe the chance will be better." ”

Yu Jia said with a smile: "The selection results are coming soon, eighty percent of the rookie MVP is Wang Jun's, or it may be James, and his data is also very beautiful." ”

After a while, the results came out, and the MVP trophy was jointly won by Wang Jun and James.

James was visibly relieved that this was the first time the rookie game had won a joint award.

The two MVPs of the Rookie Challenge are acceptable to viewers, as the two have won MVPs together three times in All-Star Game history.

In 2000, O'Neal won the MVP together with Duncan; As early as 1993, Malone and Stockton also won the MVP together; Earlier, in 1959, Elgin Baylor and Bob Pettit were the first time in All-Star Game history.

The data is that both of them are double-doubles, and Wang Jun has a slight advantage in efficiency because he shoots more three-pointers and has a high shooting percentage, but he can't shoot so smoothly without James' pass.

The head of the league discussed and decided to let them be elected together, and the trophy was divided between the two of them.

Tonight, they're the stars of the stars! (To be continued.) )
