Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 114 The starters selected by the fans are just unreliable!
The three-point shooting contest ended, and then, the slam dunk contest set off a climax.

Don't ask, the question is that Carter has deducted the button of the century.

From the beginning of the preliminaries, Carter showed the strength to crush everything.

His shooting, without a trace of sloppy, can be described as a coexistence of violence and beauty, winning applause from the audience.

Some people say that this slam dunk contest is very likely to be the peak moment in the history of the All-Stars, because Carter's performance has re-established the standard for the slam dunk contest and made future slam dunk contests lose their luster.

Li Mu was not surprised by this, because it was Carter, and the title of UFO was not given for nothing.

Li Mu is more interested in Carter's dunk opponent, who is also very high in strength and quality of completion, which can be described as a gathering of stars.

Francis, McGrady, Ricky Davis (James' boss), Stackhouse and Larry Hughes.

The only pity is that Kobe rejected this slam dunk contest, otherwise, it would be a violent collision like the earth hitting a comet.

It doesn't mean that Kobe won the 97 Slam Dunk Contest, so he was strong enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with Carter, but it means that this lineup is simply amazing, only short of Iverson, and it has four major shooting guards.

In other words, in the slam dunk contest with Carter participating, others can only compete for second place.

In the end, Carter won the championship without any suspense.

November 2, Oakland Arena.

At this moment, the All-Star Weekend is about to start.

On the court, a fat man over 150 kilograms was outside the three-point line, skillfully controlling the ball.

He dribbled the ball, dribbled with his back, crossed left and right, made a fake move, shook off the tough guy defending him, rushed into the penalty area, jumped up, and with a bang, he hung straight to the southeast branch.

A short-legged, innocent-eyed, cute-looking man, controls the ball to the frontcourt, pats the ball twice, sinks his shoulders, squats and fakes, then pulls his wrists, changes hands, and leaves.

The whole operation was done in one go, and the honest man on the opposite side, knowing that the little short leg broke through to the left, still couldn't prevent it.

In the penalty area, the short-legged ball jumped up and hit it.

A cauliflower head poses three offensive threats from outside the three-point line, and his teammates walk away, because when the cauliflower head is holding the ball to probe, he still scans his eyes to the side from time to time, as if to see, is there anyone who has no eyesight?
Want to come to the pick-and-roll, and then he will beat that person back.

Break through, start, speed up, pass the person who is similar to the cauliflower head, jump up from the penalty area, and score with gliding and dunking.

Afterwards, a plain-looking man with no ability at first glance broke through a defender who was very dark and opened his hands like a spiderman.

Suddenly, the ordinary-looking man seemed to have springs on his feet. He saw a fat man approaching in the air, and he could turn around and smash the basketball into the basket.

Immediately afterwards, a tall, dull-looking man caught the ball and hit the board, scoring two points easily.

Next, the offense is dominated by the inside line while the offense is dominated by the outside line.

One side fights for height, the other fights for speed, the game is very lively.

In other words, when Hill attacked, he was very unhappy.

He is obviously an authentic small forward, but he has to face Duncan.

That was Duncan. He had a chance to perform. He broke into the penalty area, made a layup, and was directly slapped out by Duncan's big hand.

On the commentary stage, Mike Breen laughed and said, "The starting lineup voted by the fans is so unreliable!

Can you imagine?Hill played power forward and had to face Duncan. Let alone the offense, the defense couldn't defend at all.

Let's talk about small forwards. Garnett plays small forwards, and Carter probably doesn't feel well. "

In fact, in all fairness, Kidd's defense against Iverson and Mourning's defense against O'Neal are all misplaced.

The only thing that is normal is Kobe vs. Jones. The two look similar, have the same body shape, and play the same style. It is no wonder that the Lakers will only keep one.

Due to the dislocation of the lineup, the western theater had the upper hand. In the first quarter, they quickly took the lead.

In the second quarter of the game, Larry Bird sent Ray Allen and Reggie Miller to turn the game into a shooting war, and once also overtook the score.

In the third quarter, the two sides played inextricably. After all, they were all fighting for offense.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the real fight began.

Immediately, the West Stars began to dominate.

Don't ask, just defend.

The western star teams are almost all offensive and defensive.

The Eastern Stars have a strong offense, but their defense is poor. In addition, the Western Stars have an absolute inside advantage, directly attacking the basket, and have no defense at all.

With a score of 148 to 130, the Western Stars had an 18-point advantage and defeated the Eastern Stars.

奥尼尔23投16中，罚球8中4，轰下36分14篮板，拿到了全明星赛的是MVP。

The 2000 NBA All-Star Weekend also officially ended.

……

December 2, United Center Arena.

On the second day after the All-Star Weekend, the Lakers are about to play an away game against the Bulls.

This is a scoring team.

No way, after Jordan retired, the Bulls were rotten to the bottom.

There are only three famous people, Artest, Brandon and Tokukchi.

Among the three, two were rookies in 1999.

With a score of 117 to 90, the Lakers beat the Bulls by 27 points.

On February 2, the Lakers still have an away back-to-back game. Fortunately, the opponent is the Hornets.

With a score of 119 to 94, the Lakers won with 25 points without bloodshed.

On March 2, TD Waterhouse Center Arena.

Lakers VS Magic.

This is a massacre.

The Magic team coached by Rivers has an ordinary lineup and no star flavor. They play team basketball and indeed win many games by accident.

It's just that when you play against the Lakers, you can see the gap. Even if you accept it, it's one-sided. Not to mention, O'Neal is still unwilling to accept it. He wants to show his old team some color.

I have to say that O'Neill is not self-motivated at this point. Anyway, he has stayed here for a few years, right?
Can't let him go?

With Shaquille O'Neal desperately leading, the Lakers will charge and cooperate with all their strength, and beat the Magic to a bruised nose and swollen face.

With a score of 138 to 81, the Lakers beat the Magic by 57 points.

O'Neal came to his hometown, scored 47 points and 18 rebounds, and blasted the entire arena to silence.

July 2, night.

Philadelphia, Wachovia Center.

The Lakers challenged the 76ers away.

This is a tricky team. Just before the trade deadline, the 76ers traded from the Bulls for Tony Kukic, who averaged 18 points, 5 assists and 5 rebounds per game.

With Larry Hughes growing up and Iverson being placed on top of shooting guard by Larry Brown, averaging 29 points per game, the offensive firepower of this 76ers team is not easy.

After a simple appearance and warm-up, on the big screen in the arena, the starting lineups of the two teams tonight were displayed.

Li Mu sent the blacksmith team, Billups, Kobe, Bowen, Big Ben, O'Neal.

The 76ers started with five players, point guard Eric Snow, shooting guard Iverson, small forward George Lynch, power forward Theo Ratliff, and center Matt Geiger.

The offensive firepower is fierce?

Didn't you say that Kukchi was introduced?

Why don't you make the debut?

Don't ask, asking is the four guarantees and one tactic.
