Super All-around Point Guard

When you just watched Aaron Gordon's shocking dunk, no matter how many powerful dunks you have seen before, whether it was from Vince Carter, Zach LaVine or Xie Chen, in that one In a shocking moment, you will think that this dunk is the best, because no one has ever done it like this before.

After taking off, he brings his legs together in the air and hangs parallel. At this moment, Aaron Gordon's body is tight, which can just highlight his strong arm muscles. The lines are perfect in the tight state, so this dunk action , people who are not strong enough can’t play it, it doesn’t have that kind of violent beauty.

Payton Jr. and Ibaka were absolutely crazy at the scene. They all thought that this dunk was better than any action of LaVine and Xie Chen in the previous dunk contest.

After Aaron Gordon dunked, he giggled happily. This was an absolute perfect dunk, and Gordon had prepared several perfect dunks like this!

"Thank you, if you are still as good as last year's Slam Dunk Contest, unless your creativity is great, in the finals, as long as you don't dunk with a perfect score once, I can beat you!" Aaron Gordon is particularly confident in his abilities. , and I am very confident that I will perform stably when the time comes.

However, at this time, Xie Chen did not know how powerful his opponent was. Xie Chen thought that his only opponent in the slam dunk contest this time was Zach LaVine.

…

The New Orleans All-Star Game has soon ushered in the first day of competition. Today there will be two competitions. The first is the All-Star Celebrity Game, which is a gathering of high-profile celebrities, and then the Rookie Challenge.

According to past experience, the first day of the All-Star Game is the day that receives the least attention. Not many people will go to watch it because there are no big names. Most laymen and retired players in the Masters Game cannot play. For stars, the game will not be exciting. There may be future superstars in the Rookie Challenge, but in the first two years after joining the league, they were not popular, and naturally they did not receive much attention, unless like Xie Chen, In his first year in the league, he won the MVP, became the All-Star vote winner, and led the team to win the championship.

Obviously, after Xie Chen, there has never been such a monster in the alliance.

Even in the eyes of many people, the All-Star Game only really begins with the Dunk Contest on the second day. But this year, it's completely different.

On the first day of the All-Star Game, the Smoothie King Center, home of the Pelicans, was packed with people very early and all seats were packed!

"To see Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Chris Shea play in a game, oh my God, am I really not dreaming?"

“If they were all at their peak, the scene would be so shocking that it’s indescribable!”

Because there are four Hall of Fame players joining, including one of the first players in NBA history and one of the most dominant players in the NBA, many stars came to the scene to make pilgrimages. Stars with such qualifications as Chris Paul have become fans, not to mention young players like Ingram and Porzingis. It can be said that most of them grew up watching the games of these four stars.

Before the game, the scene was very lively. Everyone greeted each other. This game was also divided into the West and the East. Xie Chen, Kobe, O'Neal, Beckham, Chris Evans, Djokovic...were in the West. Among them is a young Chinese actor Li Yifeng. Because his qualifications and achievements cannot be compared with these other people, he acted like a fan at the scene and took turns taking photos with the big names.

Members of the Eastern Conference include LeBron James, Jordan, Pippen, Justin Bieber, Bolt, Messi, Mayweather, Dwayne Johnson, etc...

In the past, CCTV did not broadcast the All-Star Celebrity Game live, but this year, Mr. Qiao has returned to the world, and with celebrities from all walks of life, it will definitely be broadcast.

Host Yang Jiandao: "This is definitely a celebrity game with the strongest lineup in the NBA. It is already very strange that so many world-class sports champions in various fields come to play basketball. I didn't expect Jordan to come too. This is really It’s hard to imagine.”

Zhang Weiping said: "Yes, Jordan has not appeared in the public eye as a player like this for too long, and it is rare that Pippen, O'Neal and Kobe also participated. This is definitely a benefit for old fans. , even if they are no longer as brave as they used to be, I believe that many people can be satisfied by watching their playing style. This All-Star Game is destined to be exciting. After today's celebrity game, there will be tomorrow's slam dunk contest and three-point contest. The competition will definitely be great to watch. I feel like after watching this All-Star Game, I won’t want to watch it in the future, haha.”

Yang Jian also feels this way, as if all the excitement of everyone will be gathered in this All-Star Game.

At the arena, Xie Chen saw Jordan and walked over to say hello first.

Xie Chen stretched out his hand and said: "Why are you interested in participating in the Masters Tournament? I still can't believe it until now. Thanks to you, I have something to do these three days."

Jordan laughed and said: "Actually, this is a very wonderful decision. I haven't been able to sleep well these days, and my hands are very itchy. Seeing that there are so many athletes and stars from various fields in the Masters, I wanted to join Scott. I came here just to have fun, but I didn’t expect Shaq and Kobe to come too, just in time to let them know who is the strongest duo.”

"This is undoubtedly us." At this time, O'Neal also stepped forward, "Michael, no intention to offend your greatness, but the strongest duo is definitely me and Kobe."

Pippen also chimed in: "Six championships and three championships, everyone knows which one is better."

At this time, Kobe also joined the trash talk war...

Seeing several senior stars talking trash among each other, Xie Chen and James felt very happy. They were both snickering. James smiled to Xie Chen and said: "Maybe when we all retire, we can also Let’s play in the Masters one year for fun.”

Xie Chen smiled and said: "It seems that I have to retire early. I can't let you wait for me for too long."

"Hahaha." James laughed.

During the warm-up time before the game, basically no one was practicing shooting. Everyone was chatting and talking about interesting things in their respective fields.

The game started soon.

Xie Chen and James are players with special status and can only play at specific times. However, Jordan, Pippen, O'Neal and Kobe did not play at the beginning, but were present just like Xie Chen and James. Sit down, after all, they are the last members who were forced on, and they are all here to have fun.

Currently, most of the people playing on the court are not professional basketball players. There are boxers, tennis players, runners, and actors. This is a hardship for many professional basketball commentators because they don’t know or understand these people. How to explain...

Fortunately, Yang Jian is also involved in other sports. Not only can these people be named, but they also have more or less understanding.

"They are not professional basketball players. They still make a lot of mistakes and their scoring ability is very weak. Xie Chen and James can only play when one side is behind by more than 10 points. It seems that this situation will not happen in a short time." Yang Jian slowly explained that he himself felt a little bored. Zhang Weiping didn't even speak because there was nothing to explain. This was the reason why CCTV did not broadcast the Masters Game before. For those who really like to watch basketball games, It's really not interesting. Probably only fans of these celebrities will stay in front of the TV to watch it.

The game was a bit dull. At this time, Messi happened to commit a foul on a layup and had to make two free throws. Perhaps in order to adjust the dull atmosphere at the scene, he actually asked the referee if he could kick the ball with his feet during the free throws.

The referee actually thought about it seriously, then asked Adam Silver for his opinion, and finally agreed with Messi to do this.

Then, everyone saw an unprecedented free throw shooting method on the basketball court.

Messi was seen placing the ball near the free throw line while he stood in the distance. Everyone was shocked when they saw it.

"No way? Messi actually wants to kick the ball with his feet?"

"This is the first time I have seen this kind of free throw. It seems that there are no rules in this Masters Game."

Jordan and other big-name teammates also looked expectant after seeing it. Messi lived up to expectations and actually kicked the ball with his feet!

Yang Jiandao: "Messi scored a penalty kick."

Zhang Weiping was a little disappointed: "It's really good, but if we play like this, it will be an exhibition match."

For the second free throw, Messi wanted to make a free throw with a header, but this time he missed the penalty.

Although Messi is the king on the football field, he has no influence at all in the basketball field. Only the kings of basketball, such as Michael Jordan, can affect the emotions of the audience.

Three minutes later, the two sides were tied, and the West and East sent Jordan Pippen and OK combination respectively!

At this time, Zhang Weiping also became energetic: "Hey, the two most powerful duos in history are about to appear at the same time. The one with the fewest rings among them is O'Neal, only four, but none of the current stars can. To reach O’Neal’s achievement.”

Yang Jian was also filled with emotion: "Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant represented the Western Conference, and Jordan Pippen represented the Eastern Conference. This scene really makes people feel like they are back in the 1998 All-Star Game. That year, the young Kobe was able to represent the Western Conference. Starting the game, playing against Jordan, who we thought was Jordan's last All-Star at the time, and today, these guys have all retired, even Kobe, the youngest at the time, retired last year."

There was thunderous applause at the scene. Both current fans and old fans in the past were very excited. These four people have a combined total of 21 championship rings!

"Such a scene will never happen again. Why do I suddenly feel that this is the last All-Star Game?" Xie Chen also clapped his hands and felt shocked when he saw the four big shots.

The ball was in Michael Jordan's hands from the very beginning, and the person standing in front of him, needless to say, was definitely Kobe.

"Jordan has retired for many years, and Kobe only retired last year. Mr. Joe is at a disadvantage due to his age. I wonder if he can still teach Kobe how to behave like he did in the 1998 All-Star Game."

When Jordan played against Kobe, the scene immediately burst into cheers. Anyone who knows basketball knows what the confrontation between these two people means.

Jordan holds the ball with one hand and looks at Kobe in a defensive posture. The feeling is no different from the first time he saw Kobe guarding him in the All-Star Game. After so many years, Kobe's eyes have always been the same when facing Jordan.

Jordan smiled and said to Kobe: "Remember what you once said? You said you would surpass me, but you only won five championships and I had six."

Jordan still trash-talked Kobe. When Kobe retired last year, Jordan said a lot of respectful words, but now is obviously not the time to compliment him. In fact, in the 1998 All-Star Game, Jordan said a lot to the young champion. Kobe showed off his championship ring without him, which also stimulated Kobe.

Kobe also laughed and replied: "At least, I got five."

What Kobe means is that because he chased Jordan, even if he didn't surpass him in the end, he still won five championships. If he hadn't had this goal, Kobe himself wouldn't have known how much he had accomplished in his career.

Jordan started to hit Kobe with his back, and then made his iconic fadeaway jumper, angrily hitting the ball.

Back, Kobe changed direction to get rid of Jordan's shot, which was also a shot.

There is no way, the shooting rate in the Masters is like this. After all, they are all bosses and rarely practice ball anymore, especially O'Neal, who is struggling to walk now.

"Hey, can you guys wait for me?"

"What? You completed the attack just after I arrived?"

The first quarter was basically completed in this atmosphere. There were many mistakes and many missed shots. O'Neal could even dunk now. The scores of both sides were very low and very close.

But in the second quarter, Kobe took the lead!

After all, Kobe is still the youngest among them and the one with the least deterioration in ability. After all, he was still playing games at this time last year.

Kobe's consecutive scoring gave the Western Celebrities a 10-point lead over the Eastern Celebrities for the first time. According to the special rules of this game, when the Eastern Celebrities fall behind by more than 10 points, LeBron James will be activated.

"James is coming on!"

LeBron James stood up and blew into his hands. The opponents on the field were not strong, and it was not difficult to help the Eastern Celebrities overtake the score, but he still looked very serious.

"After playing, my opponent is not Kobe and Shaq, but Xie. I have to overtake the score in the shortest possible time. This game is also a showdown between my leadership ability and Xie's." LeBron James said secretly.

Soon, James walked onto the court. After taking the court, he clapped with teammates Jordan and Pippen one by one.

Many people became excited immediately when they saw this scene.

"James is on the same team as Jordan and Pippen! If the three of them were combined together at their peak, even though James and Pippen's positions overlap, the combination of the three would definitely be more terrifying than the Miami Big Three!"

"Jordan and James, just these two people, can beat anyone!"
