The Pope of Basketball Community
Chapter 361 [Who is the great hero]
Celebrity Weekend takes place in Atlanta.
In the Rookie Challenge, the two sides were undefended and scored a high score of 132 to 112. The second grader won. Yao Ming performed well and scored 4 points and 3 rebounds.
Warriors point guard Arenas scored 30 points and won the MVP. As a second-year rookie, the Warriors without salary space will definitely not be able to renew Arenas. He is a big fish in the free market this summer.
The Associated Press published a review titled "Yao Struggling in the Rookie Game" and believed that Yao Ming seemed too nervous and did not seem to want to take a shot. He only had one dunk and one mid-range shot. Although he made both, his highlights were lackluster.
The next day, Star Weekend launched a new skill challenge for the first time, and the Nets' Jason Kidd won the championship.
The Kings' Stojakovic successfully defended his three-point contest title and "tied" Larry Bird's record.
The Warriors' Jason Richardson also successfully defended his dunk title, scoring four dunks and three perfect scores. His last dunk was very complex and created a classic. He first threw the ball from the baseline, waited for the ball to rebound, caught it with both hands in the air, glided to the basket and changed hands with his hips, and then successfully dunked with his backhand.
This dunk ranks high in NBA history, and even Carter may not be able to do it.
The Wizards' Stoudemire participated in the slam dunk contest, but as an inside man, he was not easy to move, and his high jump was of no use. As expected, he was eliminated early.
When Jordan appeared in the All-Star game, the fans at the scene gave the most enthusiastic cheers, and the cameras kept tracking him. This was a tribute to the king.
In this game, Jordan only needs 10 more points to break the All-Star Game scoring record held by "Skyhook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Before the game, his teammates expressed their willingness to help him win this honor and become the scoring leader in the All-Star Game.
However, Jordan listened to Yang Rui’s suggestion and
He mainly passed the ball in the opening game, actively cooperated with his teammates to provide assists, and worked hard on the defensive end to grab rebounds.
Jordan's passing was surprising, catching the Western Conference off guard. He didn't score for 7 minutes in the first quarter. He only took one shot and missed his signature fadeaway jumper. He sent out four assists and grabbed four rebounds. The Eastern Conference led 32-18 in the first quarter.
At 5 minutes and 34 seconds of the second quarter, Jordan played again, immediately grabbed two rebounds, and assisted teammate Stoudemire for an alley-oop dunk.
With 2 minutes and 52 seconds left, Kidd launched a fast-break pass from the backcourt. Jordan finally scored on his fourth shot. He changed direction and passed Nowitzki, and scored a jump shot.
Jordan scored 2 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists at halftime. He was not in a hurry. He only needed 8 more points to break the record.
During the halftime break, singer Mariah Carey sang the song "Hero" while wearing Jordan's No. 23 Bulls jersey, and Jordan's highlights were played on the big screen. The fans gave him warm applause, and Jordan, who was sitting in the audience, seemed to have tears in his eyes.
When Jordan took center stage, everyone stood and cheered.
Jordan thanked the fans and said with choked eyes: "Thank you to my family who is going through a divorce. Thank you to my fans for almost not being able to vote for the starting lineup. It is you who support me to keep playing basketball. Now, I hand this torch to the current players. Just like I took over the torch from my predecessor, 'Magic', the AIDS torch is not easy to pass on. Thank you for supporting me, I love you, and I love basketball."
Jordan walked off the court and high-fived every player present. This is a sign and a symbol. This is how the love and ideals of basketball are passed down from generation to generation.
TV commentator Mike Breen said that the word "hero" is the best summary and commemoration of Jordan.
Stana, who was watching TV with Yang Rui, sighed: "How glorious. It would be great if someone could sing when you retire. The song that suits Jordan is Hero. I don't know what song suits you?"
Stana is not a person with strong vanity. She was infected by the atmosphere at the All-Star Game. Jordan's kind of fame cannot be bought with money.
"It is impossible for a retired coach to receive such treatment." Yang Rui said lazily: "Actually, 'gambler' is the best way to sum up Jordan. This guy now often invites team players to play poker, regardless of the opponent's salary. No matter how much, I want to win the opponent's money. Fortunately, he loses more."
"No one is perfect, you can't say that about the greatest player, can you?"
"He beat me a lot of money playing cards."
Stana, a very materialistic Taurus, immediately changed her tune. "Let him die."
Yang Rui smiled and said: "Anyway, I think the song Hero is not suitable for him. If we can reach the Eastern Conference Finals or even compete for the championship in the playoffs, I will suggest the management to play another song in the stadium, preferably Singed by men.”
In the second half, Jordan came out again and quickly hit double figures in rebounds and once again gave out two assists. However, it was very difficult to score again. He only relied on a fadeaway jumper to score two points against Payton.
During the game, Jordan was also blocked by Kobe Bryant and Marion. The defensive enthusiasm of these two players was as if they were playing in the playoffs, and the fans in the audience booed.
Although Jordan didn't score much, his teammates in the Eastern Conference played very well and led by 11 points entering the final quarter.
Jordan took a 4-minute rest and gradually found his touch. On his first shot, he hit Kobe with a textbook fadeaway jumper.
One minute later, Jordan caught the ball at a 60-degree angle on the right side and passed O'Neal for a layup.
With 3 minutes and 24 seconds left, Kidd assisted, and Jordan made a steady two-pointer near the left baseline, successfully setting a new record.
In the next round, Jordan dribbled the ball near the free throw arc and suddenly stopped for a jump shot, which was blocked by Kobe. With quick eyes and quick hands, Jordan got the ball and shot again, scoring his 12th point.
At the last moment, the players gave the ball to Jordan to play, but unfortunately he missed two consecutive shots. The Western team took the opportunity to seize the opportunity, and Nash and Stojakovic tied the score with two three-pointers.
Jordan's late fadeaway jumper at the buzzer ran out the clock, but the ball didn't fall into the basket as hoped.
In overtime, Jordan took a break and came out. The score between the two teams was always anxious. Jordan grabbed two rebounds and sent out an assist.
In the last 10.8 seconds, the two sides were tied, and the last opportunity to attack was given to Jordan again. This time he singled out Marion in the left corner and made a precise fadeaway jumper that went perfectly into the net, helping the Eastern team 137 to 135. Lead by two points.
There were 4 seconds left in the Western Conference's offense. It was similar to Yang Rui's previous life. The ball was handed to Kobe. Kobe quickly advanced to the frontcourt and shot a three-pointer from the right side at a 45-degree angle.
The difference is that O'Neal, who originally fouled Kobe, is now in the West and is with Kobe. Brand's defense only raised his arms to slightly interfere and did not jump.
Brand's golf IQ is very high. Everyone knows that Kobe's three-pointers rely on wind. Only people like O'Neal who like to block shots will choose to take off with all their strength.
Kobe took a hasty shot and the ball missed hard. The referee blew the whistle and the game was over.
The fans in the audience cheered together, and David Stern also showed a happy smile. Today went well, and the plot developed according to his ideas.
Jordan scored a triple-double of 14 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists, and successfully won the All-Star Game MVP. This star weekend ended successfully.
