Super All-around Point Guard

The players in the Eastern Conference have reached a consensus to use Kobe's classic moves in the past to pay tribute to Kobe. Those with average difficulty have been picked out by James and Wade, leaving the most difficult layup to Xie Chen.

Speaking of which, this is also a recognition of Xie Chen's strength. After all, James and Wade are both thirty years old. After their peak years, the players in the Eastern Conference who are at their physical peak are Xie Chen, Irving and Paul George. They have the ability to do it, but Irving and George are obviously not as good as Xie Chen.

Xie Chen was also very melancholy at this time. It wasn't that he didn't want to copy Kobe's two difficult layups, but that he couldn't. Although he seemed to be perfect, Xie Chen's layup ability was still worse than that of Michael Jordan. , if Jordan's layup ability is copied, then Xie Chen can easily copy any of Kobe's layup moves, but it is difficult to complete these two layup moves only by relying on the ability he has acquired so far!

Soon, after the timeout, the Western Conference also replaced Howard on the field. Kobe and the Western players did not know what Xie Chen and the others were doing, but the sensitive Kobe slightly noticed something strange.

Immediately afterwards, Wade singled out Kobe, and Wade was the first to copy Kobe's actions.

Wade is a singles master like Kobe, and his steps are also very confusing. For the experienced Wade, copying this action can be said to be easy. As long as Kobe does not guess what Wade is going to do in advance, Wade will definitely be able to do it. To complete this action, of course, whether the ball goes in or not depends on Wade's touch, but this kind of rebound shot has always been Wade's strength, so there should be no problem.

Xie Chen and James were both standing on the left side watching Wade's singles. They already knew what Wade was going to do, so they all became complete spectators at this moment, without any movement in their footsteps, and they did not think about grabbing rebounds.

Wade was holding the ball at the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the right wing. Kobe was fully focused on Wade, and he believed that Wade would break through next, and was already ready to defend.

However, what Kobe is curious about is why Wade stopped the ball for so long this time?

When Wade saw Wade playing in isolation, he showed no intention of cooperating with his teammates. Zhang Weiping also said strangely: "This All-Star Game is really different from the past. If you look at the first quarter, there are things that only appeared in the fourth quarter. In the singles situation, Wade seemed to really want to score points on Kobe."

Wade was actually thinking carefully about Kobe's action and how he made each step, so he paused for a few seconds while holding the ball. After thinking about it, Wade quickly broke through to the right. Kobe quickly followed, and Wade made a move from behind. The ball was passed, and Kobe was tricked to the left, and then he immediately raised his arm and pretended to shoot.

Wade was not inferior to Kobe at all when it came to tricking his opponents into jumping and committing fouls. Wade's fake moves were also extremely realistic, and sure enough, Kobe was fooled.

Kobe jumped to block the shot, but to his surprise, Wade didn't jump.

"Damn it! He cheated!" Kobe began to feel annoyed when he was in the air. He thought Wade was going to foul him, although he also felt that it was too boring to score in this way in the first quarter of the All-Star Game.

However, Wade did not collide with Kobe. Instead, he pulled away and waited for Kobe to fly over. Then, he took a step forward, hit the board and shot, and the ball hit!

This series of movements was very coherent and skillful, making Xie Chen lament that even he himself might not be able to do it so well.

Kobe was too familiar with this move. Wasn't this the ball he used to deceive Ginobili? Wade actually imitated his own actions in this offense!

After Wade scored, he laughed loudly, then made a gesture of salute to Kobe, and then shook hands with Kobe and hugged him tightly. Kobe smiled and said: "Thank you for remembering my gesture."

Seeing his juniors imitate his moves made Kobe very proud. He has always emphasized the power of inheritance. He succeeded by stealing from Magic Jordan and then passed it on to the next generation, which made him feel very meaningful.

Wade's imitation of Kobe also made countless netizens sigh.

"This is Wade's way of paying tribute to Kobe!"

"Two of the best shooting guards in the league in the last twenty years!"

Since Jordan, Kobe and Wade can be said to be the strongest SGs in the league. Although James Harden and Klay Thompson have their own specialties, there is still a big gap between them. Kobe is Needless to say, at his peak, Wade was invincible for breakthroughs and contributed many wonderful performances. The only thing second to Kobe was his shooting.

Kobe also admired Wade very much. At Christmas, Kobe gave Wade a gift, which was a photo of the two of them. On it, Kobe wrote: "To my buddy Wade: To be able to compete with the best player in history." It’s an honor to compete as one of the players!”

Wade paid tribute to Kobe in this way, which made Kobe very happy, but what he never expected was that this was just the beginning, and there were many people in the East who wanted to imitate him.

Afterwards, Kobe and the newly introduced Warcraft Howard completed an alley-oop. After Howard dunked successfully, he smiled at Kobe like a big boy. The combination of the two also reminded people of the short-lived Lakers. Time, it is a pity that a combination like Kobe and Howard failed to win a championship.

After that, it was no longer Wade who defended Kobe, but James who took the initiative to defend Kobe. This surprised Kobe. What surprised Kobe even more was that James, who usually didn't talk to Kobe much on the court, actually talked endlessly this time. , always chatting with Kobe and disturbing Kobe's concentration.

"Kobe, what are you going to do after you retire? I think you can travel around the world with Vanessa first. You can go to China first. The fans there will definitely want to see you."

"Kobe, have you been to Anthony's trendy store in Toronto? I think it's pretty good. You should go there to choose a few things."

"Kobe, do you think Xie and Scarlett are still in love? Has he told you what abilities he has that haven't been exposed yet?"

LeBron James was chattering to Kobe like this, and even Kobe was helpless: "LeBron, why do you talk so much today? I just retired and can't play. If you want to talk to me in the future, you can call me anytime, brother."

James' harassment plan really worked. A pass to Kobe, but Kobe didn't realize that it was quickly intercepted by James. After James intercepted the ball, he moved forward quickly. Kobe wanted to catch up, but he couldn't catch up.

This is a performance moment that belongs to James. This time James performed an action of dunking with both hands behind his back. In fact, in normal games, James often performs this action, and dunking with both hands behind his back is not exclusive to Kobe. Therefore, James After dunking on the back, when he landed, he did an action that only Kobe had ever done, which was to land on one foot, then put two feet on the ground, with an exaggerated expression.

As soon as he saw James like this, Kobe immediately understood that James was imitating himself!

Yu Jia was surprised and said: "I remember this action! This is an action that No. 8 Kobe once did. After clasping his hands behind his back, he did this twice. Unexpectedly, James also imitated Kobe!"

Only then did Kobe and everyone realize the meaning of the timeout just now.

"It turns out that Xie paused to organize the players in the Eastern Conference to pay tribute to me. This kid must think that I can't do what I did in the past, haha." Kobe looked at Xie Chen, and Xie Chen shrugged with a smile.

Zhang Weiping also said excitedly: "I understand. It turns out that players in the Eastern Conference are also using this method to pay tribute and bid farewell to Kobe. Among these players, the three who can imitate Kobe's movements are Xie Chen, James, and Wade. The two big men Love and Hassan can't play. Now that James and Wade have done it, it's Xie Chen's turn next. I wonder which of Kobe's moves Xie Chen will use? It must be super difficult, right? ? Now there’s something good to watch!”

What was originally a normal game has now become more interesting. The players in the Western Conference are also secretly annoyed that they didn't think of it. They all know that Xie Chen will also imitate Kobe next, and the moves will be very difficult. However, several of them played The time was almost up, Xie Chen didn't get a chance in the first quarter, and soon they came off the field to rest.

In the second quarter, Xie Chen won cheers as soon as he came on the court. Everyone was looking forward to Xie Chen's next move to imitate Kobe, which put Xie Chen under pressure.

"What should I do? Rose's layup ability can't perfectly replicate Kobe's two difficult moves, and James' layup ability is even worse. But now the whole audience and even the whole world are waiting for me to do it. "

Xie Chen was already on the verge of riding a tiger, so he could only bite the bullet. After all, he was the one who made the proposal.

Seeing that Howard was on the inside on the opposite side, Xie Chen had already ignored the super lever that connected the four Spurs players in the air. He should copy Howard in the air and dodge it. Xie Chen glanced at Howard, and Howard also realized what was going to happen next. Howard is a good person. , even though he knew that there was another person who wanted to tease him, he was willing to let Xie Chen do that.

Sure enough, Xie Chen chose to break through on the right. Xie Chen's breakthrough speed is still unmatched, not to mention that it is on a stage like the All-Star. Basically, if you pass by in one step, no one will have time to catch up.

Xie Chen went straight to Howard!

"Come on!" Howard was already ready.

Xie Chen activated Rose's layup ability, dodged Howard in the air, and then drifted to the left to prepare for a fallback shot!

Xie Chen's aerial posture seemed very forced, which is rare for Xie Chen. He has always been aware of his own strength, so this was the first time he did not do anything beyond the scope of his strength.

There was just a bang as Xie Chen's difficult fadeaway shot hit the basket and missed!

The scene was filled with surprise and immediately became silent.

Xie Chen's imitation... actually failed?

He is the number one player in the league, and he is known as the most talented all-around player! Three-pointers, dunks, blocks, which one is not the best in the league? There is something that even Xie Chen can't do?

At this time, Jordan, who was sitting off the court, pointed out some of Xie Chen's weaknesses: "Scott, have you noticed that Xie Chen looks very versatile and has a good layup, but his layup is not as artistic as a dunk. , He has almost no particularly difficult layup moves in the game, such as exaggerated pulls or spins. He seems to only do that folding layup."

Pippen also nodded: "His dunks are at a historical level, but his layup ability is still lagging behind compared to you, compared to Kobe, and even compared to Wade at his peak."

Seeing that Xie Chen failed to imitate, Yu Jia also said: "Just now Xie Chen wanted to imitate Kobe's move of dodging Howard and switching hands in the air and leaning back. Just like Kobe just now, he also failed. After all, this move was too difficult. This also further It proves how strong Kobe was at his peak!"

James and Wade also looked at each other, both shocked. They failed? The two of them did not throw the hardest thing to Xie Chen because they wanted to see Xie Chen's jokes. Instead, they knew that Xie Chen's ability gave Xie Chen a chance to perform, but they didn't expect...

"It turns out that Xie is not that perfect." James secretly rejoiced: "But it also further proves how great Kobe is."

After Xie Chen failed to copy, Kobe happened to step forward. Xie Chen was very ashamed and said: "I'm sorry, Kobe, I can't do this action of yours now."

After Kobe heard this, he was shocked. Yes, he was shocked. He patted Xie Chen on the shoulder hard, and he felt uneasy: "Did you know that I heard you say that you can't imitate my moves? , how proud I am in my heart!! The strongest person in the alliance now is not as good as the me back then! Thank you, thank you for being willing to do this for me, you don’t need to pay tribute to me, it doesn’t matter.”

People praised Xie Chen as an unprecedented player, so when Kobe knew that Xie Chen couldn't do this move, he was so proud inside! Unfortunately, he didn't hear clearly what Xie Chen meant. Xie Chen said "It can't be done now." When the playoffs or next season comes, he will copy Jordan's layup ability, and this action will be easy to master.

Xie Chen shook his head: "No, this proposal was made. I will choose another action. Just wait and see."

Next time, Xie Chen broke through from the right again!

Yu Jia was shocked: "Xie Chen is obviously unwilling to give in, he wants to do it again!"

Howard and others thought so too, but this time, Xie Chen's route in the air was different from last time. Last time, he walked out. This time, he went straight to the basket, and then glided from the side of the basket. On the other side of the basket!

This is obviously not a copy of Kobe's mid-air hand change.

Is it a pull-up layup?

Xie Chen turned around and dunked with both hands after pulling the lever!

The scene was instantly shocked! Maddie stood up excitedly after seeing it: "This is..."

Drifting in the air and smashing with both hands!

This is an action that Kobe made when he dunked on the Wolf King Garnett! This is considered by countless Kobe fans to be Kobe's most difficult dunk!

Everyone was shocked. Xie Chen did not copy the successful layup, but completed a more difficult dunk!
