157. A rookie should keep a low profile

(Read the full text of the Reading House without pop-up windows)

After a farce, the All-Star Game started. Ten starting lineups took off their training uniforms and stood on the court. The jerseys in the West were snow-white in the front and rich gold in the back, while the jerseys in the East were dark blue in the front and snow-white in the back. Chamberlain grinned as he looked at it, thinking that the jersey style was ugly.

The list of starters in the East and West was voted by fans, namely:

east:

Forward, Kevin Garnett, Celtics

Forward, LeBron James, Cavaliers

Center, Dwight Howard, Magic

Guard, Jason Kidd, Basketball

Devin Wade, Heat

west:

Forward, Chamberlain, Warriors

Forward, Tim Duncan, Spurs

Center, Yao Ming, Rockets

Guard, Kobe Bryant, Lakers

Defender, Allen Iverson, Nuggets

Seeing Chamberlain appear in front of him, Pierce sarcastically said: "Rookie, there are so many people in your country. Any guy like you can be selected as an All-Star. Maybe it's time for NBA to disband this event."

If Pierce dared to say this before, Chamberlain would definitely say, 'Are you looking for a play', but now he is much more mature, and asked back: "Great Mr. Pierce, it is said that you are the best guy in Boston history, right? Before those two guys came, your team couldn't even make the playoffs? Is it true? Such a guy can also be selected as an All-Star?"

Pierce was so angry that he leaned over and gritted his teeth and said, "Pray to God, novices, I hope you bastard don't play at the same time as me, otherwise I will make you worse than death."

Chamberlain turned around and smiled, "Are you dreaming, the thigh king? Maybe America has to attend a 'boasting tax law', otherwise someone will blow the sky." He paused and continued, "Just like you said, the thigh king, wait for you to play before bb? I'm an All-Star starter, what about you? I never quarrel with the substitute."

This was really annoying. Pierce had to speak. Garnett hugged him and said coldly: "No need to say this, Paul, I will make this kid look good when I get on the court later. Rookie, be careful to be killed by me!"

Chamberlain was never afraid of threats, he said calmly: "There is one thing I don't want to say, but I think you need to know that my teacher Thurmond once said this to me, I'm not afraid, it can only inspire me to fight more passionately. Kevin, I heard that your knees are a little uncomfortable, be careful, my impact is not divided."

Duncan sighed and said to Howard next to him: "This sentence is true, Dwight, don't be careful to play against this kid in future games. Last time he broke Bowen's nose bone."

Seeing that the gunpowder smell between Chamberlain and these players became stronger and stronger, Yao Ming hurriedly pulled him aside and stuffed him between Kobe and Iverson. These two guys had no direct relationship with Chamberlain, and their relationship was pretty good.

As a result, after getting close to Kobe, the Black Mamba got excited. He put it next to Chamberlain and said mysteriously: "Boy, are you interested in coming to our Los Angeles? You, I, Paul, the three of us can create a big scene."

Chamberlain was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled disapprovingly: "Man, you can create a big scene now..."

"But it's not enough to make a name in history," Kobe interrupted and said, "Think about it carefully. I hope you can come to Los Angeles. This is a good choice."

Iverson was very anxious when he saw Kobe snatching people in front of him. He pulled Chamberlain and said loudly: "Follow me, man, I bet that you can definitely create a dynasty with me, three consecutive championships, no problem with three consecutive championships!"

ai is almost driven crazy by the championship ring.

Chamberlain smiled at Iverson, and just when Ai thought the other party was moved, he heard him say, "I like you very much, ai, but I will not leave the Warriors, but I welcome you to our team at any time."

Iverson said helplessly, "This guy is really a slippery person."

After Yao Ming and Garnett said a few words, they mainly helped Chamberlain to smooth things over. Then he walked over and said, "Old Zhang, please control your temper. After all, you are a newcomer. Isn't it better to be low-key?"

Chamberlain knew that Yao Ming was for his own good, so he did not refute it, but just smiled and said, "I got angry when I saw those birdmen."

The referee blew the whistle, and the players of the two teams stood on the court. This season, the players of the two All-Star teams were summarized in one sentence, that is, "a group of shooters in the East and a bunch of insides in the West."

In the East, Joe Johnson, Hamilton, Jamison, Caron Butler, Ray Allen, and even the nominal inside player Bosh are famous as shooters. In the West, Chamberlain, Yao Ming, Sir Jr., Duncan, and Nowitzki are all excellent inside players.

After the opening, the Eastern Conference players quickly got into the form so that they could use their shooting percentage to beat the West.

At the beginning of the game, Garnett jumped to Yao Ming and then made a beautiful cooperation. First, Wade broke through with the ball, and then passed the ball to Kidd who followed up. After Kidd received the ball, he made a fake move, but did not take action. Instead, he passed the ball to James who ran out of the open position on the right, assisting the latter to hit a three-pointer.

Iverson broke through and broke into the penalty area and missed a throw. Garnett took a rebound and passed it to Wade for a long pass. The Flash rushed to the frontcourt with a fast break and scored a layup against Kobe's defensive layup, helping the Eastern Conference to gain a small lead.

The team's backwardness stimulated Kobe, who was unwilling to fail. Seeing the juniors' arrogant performance, he immediately responded. In the next attack, Kobe received Iverson's return pass from the middle, jumped up and glided towards the basket. James reached out to cover the ball, but Kobe sank the ball, dodged in the air, and then dunked with both hands to score.

This dunk was very exciting, but the fans were not satisfied. Countless fans shouted "super-z" and were waiting to see Chamberlain's dunk. However, today the latter's performance was very low-key, as if Yao Ming's persuasion had played a role. After Chamberlain came on the court, he just randomly made a few defensive moves and did not defend with real swords and guns. He was not very good at the offensive end, so he helped Kobe and Iverson to play pick-and-rolls, and did not dunk like the Warriors.

After Kobe scored the goal, the East's fierce attack began. James and Wade took turns to attack the Western penalty area. Kidd sent them shells. The two of them did not lose a single ball within two minutes, and hit a 12:2 Little Gaoqiong in the West.

Because the score was widened at the beginning of the game, Western Conference players were a little embarrassed. Kobe and Duncan immediately upgraded the All-Star to the regular season and began to play seriously with a concise and serious manner. As for the Eastern Conference, because of the lead, of course, they continued to perform dunks.

Howard, Wade, LBJ, and Garnett are all excellent dunk players. The four teams teamed up to bring the first wave of high eagles to the game.

First, Howard grabbed the offensive rebound at the basket and dunked straight and caused Yao Ming to foul. Then Wade stole Kobe's pass and Kidd's fast break and went straight. After entering the penalty area, the two cooperated to play a board and an air relay. This was not the end. Yao Ming was intercepted by the opponent again when he dribbled the ball and made a single. This time it was LBJ's turn to perform.

Kidd dribbled the ball quickly, Wade attracted Kobe's attention from the wing, James was from the center line, Wade threw the ball into the air, James received the ball and stroked it from his waist, knocked away Iverson who was catching up to make up for the defense, and dunked the ball into the ring with both hands.

The performance of Eastern players affected the mood of Western players. Kobe began to play singles next time. Although the ball was scored, it also set the tone of the Western Conference game, which is whoever gets the ball will play.

The Eastern Conference players played smoothly, not only further widening the score, but also repeatedly played beautiful cooperation. Seeing that the disciples under them were becoming more and more urgent, the Zen master had to call for a timeout and make the first substitution. Similarly, the Eastern Conference also began to substitution.

Chamberlain and Duncan, who had no performance, were replaced, while Yao Ming continued to be present. In addition, he replaced Nash and S., and became three defenders in the West. In the East, Garnett + Howard + Pierce + Kidd + Joe Johnson.

Seeing Garnett and Pierce on the court, Chamberlain's listless eyes suddenly became brighter, and his crystal eyes looked like two sharp sabers, pointing straight at the stadium. Billups, who was sitting next to him, saw this scene and suddenly understood Chamberlain's previous low-keyness.

This is the strength hidden in the snow, this is the nap before the lion's attack, this is the tranquility before the storm!

The East still took the initiative. Nash dribbled the ball and passed the ball to Iverson. The latter did not use an open shot, but continued to break through, wasting Nash's pass. These two people were incompatible. Both needed to have the ball in hand to exert their maximum power, and were both good at creating opportunities for others. However, after this opportunity appeared, Nash would pass the ball and Iverson continued to play singles.

Iverson made a throw shot, and the base hit the ground and passed the ball to Garnett. The latter hit Yao Ming behind the back and caused the opponent's foul, making two free throws.

Nash and Stan cooperated, and the latter flew into the air and dunked a small windmill. But then, Johnson received a long shot from outside the three-point line, making two consecutive hits, further opening the score between the east and west.

Kobe was a little anxious, so he shot a three-pointer, and the ball hit the iron and was grabbed by Pierce. The Pier himself brought the ball one-stop, and went to the frontcourt to press S on the dunk. After the dunk, he glanced at Chamberlain off the court, deliberately ran past the bench in the Western Conference, and sneered at Chamberlain.

Chamberlain also smiled, as if he turned a blind eye to Pierce's provocation.

With the two singles champions Iverson and Kobe, Nash's appearance was ineffective, and he couldn't even touch the ball. Iverson and Kobe took turns controlling the ball, and the first-generation assist king Nash became a shooter and could only play supporting roles.

However, the team's backwardness made Nash unwilling to do so. He had a strong sense of responsibility and wanted to organize the team's rhythm to stabilize the game. But Kobe and Iverson kept hitting the basket and disrupting the rhythm of the Western Conference. In this way, the Western Conference played even more chaotic.

The Eastern Army is much better, with only Kidd as a pure point guard, who allocates the ball and pinches the rhythm of the game like a clock's hand, which is no shorter than the second.

Although the Western Conference's lineup is more starry, the effect is getting worse and worse. The Eastern Conference is in full swing. After only eight minutes of the first quarter, they led by double digits with 25:15.

Although the Zen master knew that this was an All-Star Game, he was still very dissatisfied, so he shook his head and asked for a timeout again, and began to arrange troops again.

But who should I use it? The Zen master was a little worried. When he saw the combination of Garnett + Pierce + Ray Allen on the opposite side, he was immediately annoyed. This is the All-Star and not the finals. Why are you sending your regular lineup? He glanced at Chamberlain and Billups, waved his hand and shouted: "You two, come on!"
