Grab Curry at the start

Chapter 231
On the second day of the All-Star Weekend, Zhang Sixin played during the day and watched the game at night, feeling very comfortable.

The Shooting Star game was not interesting, and Zhang Sixin watched it carefully until Curry's skills game came.

This time Curry's opponents are Paul, Rose, Wall, and Westbrook. It can be said to be the pinnacle matchup between young guards.

Rose was the last champion, and Paul, who has always been considered the strongest point guard by the outside world, is the favorite to win the championship every time, but he loses every time.

If there is no problem with Paul's technique, then there is a problem with his psychological quality.

Zhang Sixin will help Curry get the title of the first point guard earlier.

It was Curry's first appearance in the game. This order is likely to put pressure on the players. Curry's passes were very successful, but he didn't make a single hit in the mid-range shot. The results were not bad.

Next, Westbrook finished the game with better results. Many fans thought that the next players would perform better. They didn't expect that Rose, who had won the championship, would make all kinds of mistakes.

Especially Paul, who missed all layups and had the worst grades. His face was a bit dull.

After Curry and Westbrook entered the finals, Curry came first again.

Curry performed better than the preliminaries this time, and the time was within 30 seconds, but Westbrook was nervous in the final, and his results were far from the preliminaries. Curry also won the championship of the skills competition without any dispute.

In the three-point contest, the little guy won the championship again.

In the three-point contest, many times it is not known who can win the championship before the game.

Many ruthless characters in the game will be inferior to role players in the three-point contest.

Zhang Sixin remembers that in the original history, until Curry and Thompson won consecutive championships, this situation did not continue.

The Timberwolves are more conspicuous on the inside this season, so they did not participate in the three-point contest.

The only popular young man in the three-point contest is Durant, but Durant pulled in the preliminaries and only scored 6 points, almost paying tribute to Jordan who scored 5 points.

So, in the final, Heat player Jones fought against two Celtics generals, Pierce and Ray Allen, and then killed them.

Then, the Heat also beat the Celtics in the playoffs, which is a good sign.

In the slam dunk contest, although the Timberwolves had DeRozan participating, he was just a soy saucer.

In this slam dunk contest, Griffin and McGee are able to make a living. DeRozan and Ibaka can only study with the prince.

For example, McGee dunked two baskets with two balls and dunked three goals at one time. In the finals, he paid tribute to Jordan. If the opponent was Griffin, he would actually have hope.

Griffin, on the other hand, relied on physical fitness to make various moves for the previous dunks, but the last dunk was full of gimmicks and leaped over the car, winning the slam dunk contest championship in one fell swoop.

After the All-Star Weekend, the Timberwolves will go to an away game. As the head coach, on the last day of the All-Star, Zhang Sixin mainly rests.

Before the main game, I left the hotel to watch the game.

This year's All-Stars Curry and Love are starting again. In addition to the Western Conference Five, there are Kobe, Durant and Duncan. Duncan starts in place of the injured Yao.

In the East, there are five people selected by fans, Rose, Wade, James, Stoudemire and Howard.

It seems that there are still distinct players in each position of the Eastern Conference All-Star lineup.

Unlike in the rookie game, even if Curry and Love start for the second consecutive year, they don't have much status in the world.

With Love's style, it is estimated that it will not be easy to use in the All-Star Game.

On the contrary, if Curry wants to play more, he still has a chance.

But Curry is more modest in this regard. Kobe is more interested in this year, and Curry will definitely not steal the limelight.

Among the young people nowadays, the only young people who can do it with the ball regardless of their status in the world are the Thunder. Durant and Westbrook don't care so much.

In the West, Duncan actually doesn't know how to play, and Nowitzki is in a similar situation. Griffin and Westbrook are not enough, and the head coach will not give them a chance.

So in addition to the starting four, there will be plenty of opportunities, namely Anthony, Gasol and Ginobili.

And Anthony will go to the East soon. This is the last time he was an All-Star in the West.

On the Eastern side, the main rotation will be eight people, only the three old guys of the Celtics and coach Horford, an All-Star rookie, will not give any chance.

After the game started, it was the Eastern Conference that scored first.

After so many years of strong insiders in the West, it is now the turn of the East. The combination of Howard and Stoudemire is still relatively sharp, and Stoudemire is also very active.

In the west, there is no doubt that Kobe, who is playing at home, takes care of everything.

Everyone in the front gave face and gave the ball to Kobe. Even Durant, who wanted to show off, endured it for a while before hitting it himself.

With his home game and status in the arena, Kobe deserves this kind of respect.

It's hard for other stars to be so active at the All-Star weekend at his age.

On the Eastern side, there are no veterans in the All-Star starters at all.

Both Curry and Love are supporting roles, and Zhang Sixin also put more attention on the game itself.

During the rotation period, the stars in the West were more fierce, Westbrook and Gasol were very active, and the West also maintained a leading score in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, under the performance of Kobe and Durant, the West still took the lead steadily.

These two are too strong. In terms of defense at the All-Star level, the East is really helpless.

Moreover, James does not have the absolute status of the future in the East. Except for Stoudemire who wants to steal the limelight, Rose actually has no peace of mind to play as a support.

Besides, although three of the Heat were selected as All-Stars, but the head coach is Rivers of the Celtics, James naturally cannot play as comfortably as Kobe in the West.

And Kobe's feeling that he wants to win is very obvious, and James is still holding it if he doesn't want to.

Kobe scored 21 points in the first half and the West led by double digits. Zhang Sixin felt that he had stabilized at that time.

In the second half, James wanted to work hard, but found it not so easy to chase points.

Kobe and Durant are still unrelenting. The young people in the West seized the opportunity and played well, and the West is leading more and more.

At the end of the quarter, the West was a little slack.

James played a little longer than other All-Stars before leading the team to get a chance to narrow the gap.

It also makes the game better to watch, as is the case with the All-Star game.

Except for some accidents, there is a high probability that the race will become fierce at the end.

After the game approached, the Eastern Conference head coach Rivers gave up his inside advantage and chose a more flexible small lineup. As a result, the Eastern Conference lost consecutive rebounds at critical moments, and finally regretted losing.

In this game, Kobe wished to win the All-Star MVP at home, and the most conspicuous performance of the young players was Durant, who also scored 30+.

Curry and Love's game was just as expected, and Zhang Sixin couldn't help thinking whether he was going to be an All-Star head coach.
