942: [Business Is Still Going On]
Steve is very happy to admit that the half season with the Lakers was the happiest time of his career, even though he had a childhood sweetheart with the German guy in Dallas, even though he reached the peak of his life in Phoenix and made a whirlwind in the NBA.
But purely from the perspective of dopamine secretion, what he enjoyed more was the time he spent with Snoopy...oh, and Kobe.
He doesn't have to worry about winning or losing the game at all, or the tactical plan. He just needs to do things within his capabilities. Snoopy, the worry maniac, will automatically take care of everything. And Kobe, although he looks very unsociable, everyone can actually see how secretly he caters to Snoopy, even more kitsch than the women in the Atlanta Gold Club.
The Lakers trident was finally replaced in the seventh minute of the first quarter.
After all, Popovich still has to act according to the basic law: there are a total of 12 superstars in the Western Conference team, and the average playing time allocated to each player is only 20 minutes. In the first quarter, the Lakers Trident played for 7 minutes. What do the players do? They must be exposed to both rain and dew.
Of course, another reason why Popovich took the Lakers trident off the court is that these three people did not play any high-quality cooperation at all. Under the mediocre defense of the Eastern Conference, they were completely breaking through the ball and Nash's shooting routine. . Later, even Zach Randolph joined this passing camp, which made Blake Griffin very embarrassed. He really wanted to dunk, but he seemed unsociable.
As a result, Comrade Steve Nash easily broke the All-Star Game single-quarter scoring record. He scored 24 points in just 7 minutes and 15 seconds.
This score is inseparable from his 9-of-13 shooting percentage, the Western team's team-wide feeding, and the Eastern team's mediocre defense.
The whole coincidence collided, and Nash, the MVP, had no chance to run away: as long as the Western Conference team wins next, it will be him!
Nash, who was wearing a towel, leaned back. The Duke on his left was chatting enthusiastically with Popovich. Both of them lowered their voices, but they burst out with two cheers: Popovich! Zhang Jupi's face was filled with appreciation.
Looking over Popovich's body, one can clearly see the question mark on Tony Parker's face: He has never seen Popovich treat any player as well as Snoopy, not even Tim Duncan. Are you talking and laughing about tactics? It must be a dream. Back then, I was scolded profusely when I ran into the wrong position. If I showed any freedom, I would be knocked down on the tactical board. I was completely used as a screw. Why has it become a democratic atmosphere for mutual discussion now at Snoopy's place?
It was obvious that Tony wanted to curse in French!
Looking to the right, Black Mamba was carefully arranging his knee pads and sleeves. He was like a soldier who had finally gone on a battle, constantly wiping his weapons.
He was in very good shape tonight, and if it wasn't for Snoopy's call, he might have scored 20 points. In contrast, his opponent, Dwyane Wade, is the one with heavier legs and feet: Dwyane has contributed as much to the game as Kobe over the years, and he also gave up a meniscus. After he played the first half of the season, and in the atmosphere of the All-Star Game, he indeed looked more tired than Kobe, who came back full of energy and condition.
The game on the court continues.
Chris Paul seems to be competing with Derrick Rose in the East. With the positioning of Snoopy Stadium erratic, Derrick Rose seems to have taken away the league's No. 1 point guard this season. In the first half of the season, Rose, who averaged 26.5 points, 7.9 assists and 4.6 rebounds per game, except for the assist data, is less than Paul. , every other project has breached the fortress.
Moreover, his record is better than Paul.
If calculated by percentage, at least 40% of people in North America now believe that Rose is already the league's number one point guard.
Paul still has about 45% of his supporters, and the remaining 5% is shared by Deron, Westbrook and others.
With a death cross about to occur, Paul felt that he had to prove his strength.
So, the two of them came and went.
Paul constantly used pick-and-rolls to assist David Lee, Griffin and others to take off.
Rose is very simple. He just looks for a screen, then penetrates into the paint, leaps up like a helicopter, and slams the basketball into the basket wrapped in hormones, winning the applause of the whole house.
He shows the most aggressiveness among today's point guards!
Both of them have their own merits.
Steve took advantage of Popovich getting up to make personnel adjustments and asked Snoopy: "Who do you think is the number one point guard between the two of them?"
As the former No. 1 point guard, Nash is very concerned about the growth of his juniors.
Doug thought for a while: "If Derek stays healthy, this is a question without any suspense. Derek has the ability to attack that Chris will never have, and his assist ability is not as weak as imagined. The most important thing is The thing is, height and size can never be compensated.”
The Duke supported his Rose Brothers.
Steve pursed his lips and nodded. To be honest, he still likes Chris Paul more in his heart. After all, St. Paul took over the gun of the league's number one point guard from him. It's not very popular now, but it's about to be taken away by the newcomers. It's inexplicably sad!
The game continues.
Under the highest guiding principle of equal exposure to rain and dew, both sides frequently changed horses and generals.
The entire first half was played with a playful attitude: after all, this is the All-Star weekend, and no one wants to clock in without reservation during the break.
In this atmosphere, the scores of both sides were unusually high.
The Western team scored 86 points in the first half, and the Eastern team also scored 79 points in the first half.
If it were ten years ago, when Iron Curtain defense was rampant, this would have been the final score of the game.
Steve Nash played another four minutes in the second quarter. In these four minutes, he expanded his score to 31 points. What's interesting is that all his other data boxes are zero, including zero assists, zero rebounds, and zero steals.
This made the Duke frown, and he suggested: In the second half, you should get more assists. It will also look better when spread out.
In the East, the name most promising to win the MVP is already ready to be announced.
LeBron has already scored 11 points, 7 assists, 6 rebounds and 1 steal in the first half. He is clearly trending towards an all-around triple-double. Once the Eastern Conference wins and he gets a triple-double, becoming the second player in history after Snoopy, he will undoubtedly become the MVP winner.
In comparison, the Duke was a little dull tonight, with 5 points, 8 assists and 4 rebounds.
It can be seen from his expression and his state that he has no interest in the All-Star MVP.
However, business is still going on, and no one knows what will happen next! !
