I'm a ball devil

Chapter 324 Durant Hit Up
After getting off to a good start, the Lakers embarked on a winning streak.

In the past December, they have achieved 12 consecutive victories.

Sit firmly at the top of the league's regular season record list.

Immediately behind them is the Heat, who have achieved a record of 17 wins and 1 loss.

Barkley said that the league has entered a two-strong competition. Except for the Lakers and the Heat, other teams in the league can only be classified as other teams.

After the Heat got Harden, their strength improved a bit.

The joining of Harden did not destroy their original chemical reaction. Instead, Harden's assist ability was better utilized, and their basketball delivery became smoother.

They are equivalent to adding another strong point that can pass the ball besides James.

For such two teams, the fans must be looking forward to seeing them meet for a battle.

However, the league arranged the first meeting between the Lakers and the Heat after the All-Star Game.

Fans will have to wait.

They can look forward to the All-Star Weekend first.

It's just that there is not much suspense about the All-Stars, and Ye Hao has won the top votes again.

Who can surpass him?
Moreover, his number of votes does not mean that after reaching a peak, it will decline, but it will continue to rise.

This is quite scary, which means that every year new fans rush in to vote for Ye Hao.

His fan base is constantly expanding.

His performance is conquering more and more people.

The second vote was his teammate Kobe, followed by Howard and James, who ranked third and fourth.

The players selected for the Eastern Conference All-Star are as follows,
The starters are: The Bulls' Derrick Rose and the Heat's Dwyane Wade at two guards, the Heat's LeBron James and New York's Carmelo Anthony at two forwards, and the Magic at center Dwight Howard.

Substitutes: Deron Williams, Andre Iguodala, Paul Pierce, Chris Bosh, Luol Deng, Joe Johns, Roy Hibbert.

The starters selected for the Western All-Stars are: the two guards are the golden double guns Ye Hao and Kobe of the Lakers, the two forwards are Kevin Durant of the Thunder and Blake Griffin of the Clippers, and the center is Yao of the Rockets.

Substitutes: Chris Paul, Steve Nash, Tony Parker, LaMarcus Aldridge, Kevin Love, Nowitzki, Marc Gasol.

It is worth mentioning that in the second half of last season, the New York Knicks traded Carmelo Anthony from the Denver Nuggets, and together with the bully Amare Stoudemire formed the core cornerstone of the Knicks .

This also allowed Wade, James, and Anthony to play on the same team in this year's All-Star Game.

It is an indirect realization of playing brother basketball.

The only pity is that Chris Paul is in the West, which didn't allow them to fully fit the banana boat brothers.

Before the start of the All-Star Game, James and his brothers called the Eastern Conference All-Star players to have a meeting.

The topic discussed at the meeting was that their Eastern Conference team could not lose again this year.

They've been on a losing streak for a few years now.

If you lose any more, you will lose all face.

So this year must win.

This year their lineup also has a good chance of winning.

There are super center Howard, the best striker combination James and Anthony, and excellent guards Wade and Rose.

Also on the bench are Deron Williams, Chris Bosh, Paul Pierce and other strong players.

With such a lineup, how can they lose again?
James said this year is bound to bring the All-Star Game victory back to the Eastern Conference.

Wade, Anthony, Bosh and others echoed their approval.

James also has another wish, that is, if the Eastern Conference can win this year, then he has a good chance of winning the MVP trophy of the All-Star Game.

For this trophy, although it is not important, he still wants to get it.

In recent seasons, he has played very hard in the All-Star Game, and he is only a little short of the All-Star Game MVP.

Just such a little bit, all of them were robbed by that guy Ye Hao, and not only robbed him once, but several times in succession.

It's really disgusting.

The All-Star Game MVP James valued wants, but Ye Hao didn't care much.

He has won several in a row. Last year, he was no longer interested in grabbing it, but he couldn't do it if he didn't want it. This award was finally stuffed into his hands.

There is no way, there is really no way.

He really just hit it casually and got it. What can be done about it?

LeBron has fought so hard, so give it to him.

Why do you have to force it to yourself?
The matter of winning prizes, hey, getting soft hands is also quite tiring.

This year, Ye Hao and Kobe agreed to paddle together in the All-Star Game.

That's a little bit out of the ordinary for a ball devil.

The ball demon goes all out on the court.

This paddling style of playing is a bit inconsistent with what the ball monster does.

But they really discussed it like this, just like two good kids who have always studied hard, sneaking out to the game console room to play a game to relax occasionally.

It's also kind of fun.

Such a result is probably beyond the imagination of the fans who watched the Orlando All-Star Game.

While thinking about playing seriously, you are actually thinking about paddling?

Shouldn't they all fight hard and fight hard?
Even if you don't play hard with the whole audience, at least play hard for a quarter and a half.

It was under such circumstances that the All-Star Game began.

The grand finale of the All-Star Weekend.

The two sides jumped the ball, and the Eastern team took the lead in attacking.

Rose controlled the ball and pushed forward. Facing Ye Hao's defense, he tossed the basketball high to the basket, played an alley-oop cooperation with Warcraft Howard, and assisted Howard to score a dunk.

This goal made the Orlando fans excited.

This year is their home game, and Howard is playing at home again.

Naturally, many fans at the scene supported him.

Looking back, the West offense.

Ye Hao controls the ball, and he slowly dribbles the ball left and right at the top of the arc.

Rose stuck up, and Wade leaned over from the side, ready to pinch.

But Ye Hao passed the ball, passed the basketball from his crotch, and hit the ground to his former teammate Durant.

After Durant received the ball, he immediately made a fallback jumper.

A two-pointer was scored and it was returned.

After making the goal, Durant ran over with his right hand high and high-fived Ye Hao.

The ball Ye Hao passed to him was still the same as in the past, and it was still so comfortable and in place. After receiving it, he didn't need to make any adjustments before he could shoot it.

James took the ball from the basket and brought it from the middle to the frontcourt.

He singles Durant with the ball.

After pushing in with his body, he didn't attack by himself, and passed the basketball out to Anthony on the outside.

Anthony caught the ball and faced Griffin, took a quick tentative step, and forced Griffin back.

Follow him to take off and take a one-step shot from inside the three-point line.

The ball goes in.

He's very good at this kind of scoring.

Looking back, Ye Hao got the ball from the basket, and he advanced from the right.

Before halftime, he passed the basketball across to Kobe.

Kobe didn't attack by himself, dribbled the ball beyond the three-point line, threw the basketball to the basket, and made an alley-oop with Griffin.

Griffin jumped high under the basket, got the basketball, and dunked it forward.

It's just that his arms are a bit short, so he can only throw the basketball into the basket.

Turning around, Rose gave the ball to Wade, and Wade dribbled the ball down the baseline.

A reverse dunk.

On the west side, Ye Haomiao made a pass to Dayao, and Dayao made a shot near the free throw line, with a soft touch, the ball scored.

The shooting percentages of both sides are very high at the beginning of the game.

All kinds of dunks and various performative movements are played out, which are still very eye-catching.

The purpose of holding the All-Star Game is to make the fans happy.

So the first quarter was quite tacitly shown.

In the second quarter, the smell of gunpowder gradually became stronger.

The Eastern field is Rose, Wade, James, Anthony and Bosh.

They can run and fight.

On the west side are Paul, Ye Hao, Durant, Aldridge and Nowitzki.

Kobe was replaced and rested.

Paul held the ball to find Aldridge to play a pick-and-roll. After breaking in, he passed it back to Aldridge and assisted him to make a shot.

James took the ball, grabbed Aldridge, used his speed to pass, and dunked.

Turning around, the ball was in Ye Hao's hands, and Ye Hao passed it behind his back to Paul.

Today he is really paddling, and he hasn't attacked yet.

Take the ball and pass it out.

Paul singled out Rose, made an emergency stop and missed the shot.

James grabbed the rebound, dribbled the ball for a fast break, and scored a layup.

Now his desire to attack is obviously very strong.

The basketball hit Ye Hao's hands again, and it was passed by Durant.

Ye Hao took the ball, and James and Wade immediately double-teamed.

Ye Hao smiled and returned the ball to Durant.

Durant was unguarded and easily scored a jumper.

Ye Hao received another assist.

This is the personal data in the paddling water is also rising.

James then received the ball from the right flank, faced Durant, and headed sideways to the basket.

Like a bulldozer, it pushed Durant inside.

Then he shot a fadeaway jumper and hit the board.

Paul dribbled the ball to the basket, made a false pass, and passed the ball to Ye Hao outside the top of the arc.

Ye Hao received the ball, raised his hand and gave it out to Nowitzki on the high position on the right. The old driver made a golden rooster independent move and scored the ball.

Ye Hao got another assist.

When he came on the field, he seemed to be doing assists.

Playing with all-star players, it is easy to get assist data.

As long as the basketball you give is not so outrageous, you can basically get an assist.

This is kind of cool.

James played with Bosh and assisted Bosh to score at the basket.

Posh wore a black brace today, which was honestly pretty ugly.

Especially when he grinned after scoring a goal and ran over to give James a high-five.

Ye Hao happened to see it, and shook his head in disgust, really not understanding what kind of aesthetic this guy is.

It's like he doesn't understand that Westbrook likes to wear some clothes with exaggerated colors and exaggerated shapes, which are gradually regarded as fashion by people.

Attacking from the west, Ye Hao lay in ambush outside the right flank (paddling quietly).

Unexpectedly, teammate Aldridge passed the basketball over.

He unconsciously took off and shot.

Just scored three points.

This movement is proficient to the bone. As soon as the basketball comes over, he throws the ball.

Very standard action.

Elegant, chic and picturesque.

Looking back, James made a sudden stop in the middle, then made a sudden stop and made a jumper to score.

James is holding back his energy to score.

Ye Hao held the ball at the top of the arc, swaying the defense with feints.

Then throw the ball across to Durant on the right corner.

Durant caught the ball and shot it back.

His touch is definitely hot today.

He basically made all the basketballs that Ye Hao passed to him.

In the first half, the two sides came and went, and the score rose alternately.

The Eastern Conference led by 3 points entering the second half.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Ye Hao and Kobe sat on the sidelines to rest.

But they didn't rest for long.

Because the head coach of the Western Conference Stars this year is Popovich of the Spurs.

When this guy leads the All-Star Game, he usually chooses to let his team's players play less, so that they can save more energy to fight in the regular season.

With fewer players from your own team, it will naturally increase the playing time of star players from other teams.

Especially rival players.

So Popovich gave Ye Hao and Kobe enough playing time today.

Ye Hao only rested for four to five minutes, but Kobe took a little longer.

If anyone has an opinion, Popovich will say that fans like to see Ye Hao and Kobe on the court,

His arrangement is for the consideration of the fans.

The head coach of the Eastern Stars is Spoelstra of the Heat, and James has told him long ago that he wants to lead the team to victory.

So Spoelstra also gave enough playing time to Wade, James, Bosh and other Heat players.

In the third quarter, under the leadership of Wade and James, the East star team widened the point difference to 12 points in one fell swoop.

Afterwards, Kobe and Ye Hao returned to the court, and their partners were Durant, Aldridge and Griffin.

Ye Hao controlled the ball and advanced.

He just dribbled the ball past the middle circle and threw the basketball to the basket.

Just in time, Durant went straight up from the middle, and pressed the basketball in with one hand after taking off.

The East's offense hit the iron, and Wade didn't make a layup.

Griffin grabbed the backcourt rebound and handed it to Ye Hao.

Ye Hao assisted Durant again, and Durant made a three-point shot from outside the three-point line.

Looking back, Ross made a mistake with the ball, and Ye Hao took the basketball.

Another assist, given to Durant, Durant scored a three-pointer.

In the blink of an eye, the Western Stars narrowed the point difference to 4 points.

The East called a timeout.

When Durant was off the field, he deliberately ran over and bumped Ye Hao's chest.

He played really well today, and the former boss kept feeding him the ball.

This made him grateful. Although the boss left the Thunder, he still didn't forget himself.

After the timeout, the game between the two sides continued.

James made a strong breakthrough and struggled to score two points under the defense of Griffin and Aldridge.

Kobe gave the ball to Ye Hao, Ye Hao didn't look at the pass, and gave the ball to Durant who cut down, assisting Durant to score a dunk.

Looking back, James held the ball and wanted to beat Durant again, but was blocked by Durant severely.

The basketball was taken by Kobe.

Kobe quickly dribbled to the frontcourt, turned back to Durant, and Durant made another three-pointer.
