One Thousand Six Hundred and One. Undisguised Ambition!
The rhythm of performance is different from that of recording songs. Sun Ce didn't bother with this in the past, but over time, Sun Ce also learned that to attract the attention of the audience, especially the live audience, it is best to use a soothing melody and directness at the beginning of the song. Sing two lines of climax.
Therefore, this time it was Kobe Bryant's piano music paired with Sun Ce's first two lines of the climax of the song.
The sound that he deliberately suppressed in the high notes, suppressed his nasal sounds while pushing up the air, and tried his best to produce the sound made everyone at the scene, in front of the TV and in front of the computer feel Sun Ce's powerful "musical control". , I felt a strong sense of excitement again!
Even his teammates didn't expect this voice, because during practice, Sun Ce practiced normally and didn't feel like he was deliberately showing off his skills.
Forget about showing off your skills, where did that lusty energy come from?
The fans at the scene also had goosebumps, but as the lights came on, James, who was wearing black jeans, a floral suit, leather shoes, white socks, and an aristocratic hairstyle, began to slowly play the violin, and the sound of music was thicker than the piano. sounded.
Wearing a tuxedo but with a very eye-catching big red rose embroidered on his tie, Kobe was sitting in front of the piano and began to speed up the tempo, playing this light and exciting disco-style song.
Love and Irving, both had shaved off their beards, one was wearing a red suit, the other was wearing a blue suit... and the other started playing an electric guitar.
Wade cut into the melody and played the drums.
There were two professional musicians next to him...
Sun Ce, on the other hand, was dressed like someone on a blind date, with a white tight-fitting suit, a small bow tie, his hair shaved short on both sides but a little long on the top, combed back... He looked very seriously dressed, but the opening scene was so dramatic. After hearing the sound, everyone felt that Sun Ce was exuding a strong arrogance, and even his outfit looked very arrogant.
Originally, these outfits were fine, but they were just a little different. They were much fresher and fresher than the outfits worn by a certain number 21 in the past three years.
But because of the opening voice of the main stage, the whole orchestra, from the main stage to the musicians, was full of excitement!
Along with the rock and retro disco melody, the scene became lively. Sun Ce, who entered the "SUGAR perfect singing card" state, unconsciously stepped on Yang Kun's feet along with the melody, twisted his upper body slightly, and held the The microphone shock mount beat the beat, and he sang the "humble" AB lyrics with an uncontrollable sultry voice.
The Chinese meaning of the lyrics is roughly "I'm hurt, baby, I'm helpless, I need your love at this time..."
The climax comes quickly, and the lyrics in the AB section are relatively "humble" from a literal meaning, but when connected sentence after sentence, there is a feeling of "hungry for mating", coupled with Sun Ce's very fine pressure tonight , the voice that was pushed upwards but deliberately suppressed was not only coquettish, but also coquettish!
Everyone has a different feeling when hearing this lyrics. Like Sun Ce himself, he felt that it was expressing the sadness of having all his attention taken away by little Gohan, and it was a cry of unwillingness.
James and other band members felt that Sun Ce was expressing his emotions after trying all possible means to finally catch the woman he loved.
What the fans at the scene heard was very straightforward - a hungry man begging for mating...
Lily Collins and Zu Ge in front of the TV were different again. Sun Ce complained many times that their attention was entirely focused on little Gohan.
Especially in recent days, after Lily Collins became pregnant with her second child, her family was about to welcome their second child. Most of the attention was given to Lily Collins, and the rest of the attention was given to little Gohan. .
In this day and age, Dabao's ideas always receive extra attention. He is afraid that Dabao will be dissatisfied, but sometimes he seems very deliberate.
It's just that little Gohan is only 1 year old now and doesn't understand anything, so he won't feel awkward.
However, Zu Ge, Lily Collins and Sun Ce's parents are actually treating little Gohan better now than before.
So, the humble corner that originally belonged to Sun Ce,
Completely occupied by little Gohan and the child who will be born in 9 months.
What Zu Ge and Lily Collins heard was the "unwilling cry" from the heart that Sun Ce wanted to express. Both of them laughed while watching the live broadcast at home in Memphis.
And it can "resonate" with people because this song is really good!
The retro disco-style melody is very simple and catchy, and the climax of the song is sung every 10 to 20 seconds. When the song is about to end, the fans at the scene all started to sing along with the "Duck Voice". At the climax, Sun Ce shouted "Yoursugar, Yes, please, Won'tyouandputitdownonme..."
Originally, many people thought this song was easy because they knew it once they heard it. However, when most people sang it with a voice similar to that of Sun Ce, the sound they sang was similar to a "duck voice", or it was broken. , which made them discover that this song may seem simple, but it is still very difficult!
At the end of the day, James, Irving, Love, Wade and the two orchestra teachers stopped playing, leaving only Kobe playing a simple melody, Sun Ce stopped singing, and everyone enjoyed the cheers of the fans. Voice.
Kobe's melody ended, and Sun Ce once again used his sultry voice - "Yoursugar, Yes, please, Won'tyouandputitdownonme..."
The tail note was stretched... and stretched... The last "mi... ya" ended the performance, and several musicians pressed or played the last note heavily!
At the end of the performance, when the group was about to thank the fans for their enthusiasm and prepare to leave to change into the All-Star training uniforms and jerseys, the fans on the scene were crazy shouting the names of their favorite stars. Irving and Love were less popular, and Wade was second. The nicknames or names that were shouted more were Kobe, James, and Sun Ce!
This scene was even more exaggerated than the dance performances in previous years!
Sun Ce's singing was fine, almost perfect. The five All-Stars had some level of instrumental performance, and they practiced so hard in the past few days. Although there were no lyrics and only occasional harmony when they played, they were all very dedicated. The overall performance was very good, which resonated with the fans on the scene.
The main reason is that they exceed expectations every year!
Because they are athletes, no matter how good their previous performances were, the fans will always lower their expectations and be very defensive. If their performance can reach the average level of a real orchestra, it will be considered a "hall-level performance" in people's eyes.
As public figures, although Sun Ce and his team's main job is playing basketball, playing music and dancing have become one of their main hobbies. Maybe some people like to design or change their hairstyles.
This is the same as the public's love of playing games, going to KTV, and playing mahjong after work.
The feeling of being awesome at playing games and hearing the envy of primary school students in the Internet cafe, singing in KTV and getting praise, playing mahjong and winning money... and so on, are exactly the same as what Sun Ce and his team feel now!
Hobbies are not big or small, getting recognition is the happiest thing!
…
After the performance, Kobe sat directly on the sidelines. He will not play tonight, and the other five All-Stars will return to their own teams.
In the West, Sun Ce, James, Irving, and Love changed their jerseys and put on training clothes and returned to the scene. They felt the envy of their All-Star teammates.
Including Curry, they all expressed deep envy!
Didn't he leave a little early that morning? As a result, this guy really didn't call him!
He originally thought that Nash had retired, and that Curry should have taken Nash's place, but in the end it was Irving who took over, and the limelight was given to Irving, Curry was angry!
But that guy said that he would definitely call him next year, and Curry felt better.
The opening performance was over, and Robert Downey Jr. continued to warm up the venue for a while, and after the staff notified the All-Stars that they were ready to enter, the All-Star players' entrance ceremony began.
Popovich was the Western Conference All-Star head coach last year, so although the Spurs are currently ranked first in the West, the Western Conference All-Star head coach is the second-ranked Lakers coach Bickerstaff.
The reason why Popovich is happy when he sees that his team has no All-Stars is because of this. No matter what, he will not be the All-Star head coach this year. What if the Lakers coach who is older than him but has more tricks makes trouble, he can't stop it, just like last year when Popovich used Kobe and Sun Ce to death.
First, the All-Star substitutes entered the court, and then the All-Star starters entered the court.
At 7:50, all the All-Stars of both teams have finished their appearances.
The starting lineup of the Eastern Conference team tonight: Rose, Wall, Evans, Anthony, Griffin.
The starting lineup of the home team Western Conference: Curry, Sun Ce, James, Love, Aldridge.
Old Bickerstaff let Aldridge take the All-Star starting position to enhance the height and tonnage of the inside line, and also the qualifications. Aldridge is currently the oldest in the Western All-Star lineup except James.
Not only in the West, after Kobe and Nowitzki withdrew from the All-Star Game this year, James is the third oldest in the entire 24-man All-Star lineup. Only Gasol and Anthony are older than him. In terms of playing age, only Gasol is older than him.
In terms of the number of games played, regular season plus playoffs, James has played three more games than Gasol, because Gasol has missed more than 20 games in three seasons.
Sun Ce felt a little dazed when he found out about this... When did James become the oldest All-Star?
But when I think about it, it's already his fifth season. When he first entered the NBA, James was still on the Cavaliers...
The passage of time cannot be stopped, so Sun Ce likes the present moment very much!
There is no center in the West who has been selected as an All-Star this year. Although the East has three centers, Gasol, Hibbert, and Noah, who have been selected as All-Stars, the starting lineup of the East is surprisingly short.
The original All-Star substitute selection is a fixed selection of two guards, two forwards, and a center plus two free choices. In the original free selection, no coach has voted for the center position in recent years, but at least the starting and substitute centers have a fixed position.
This year, after the NBA cancelled the fixed quota for the center position in the All-Star Game, no center in the West was selected as an All-Star.
This is why some fans feel sorry for Duncan. This year, Duncan is the best player at the center position in the West, and the player with the most All-Star votes at the center position in the West. If it were last year's selection rules, Duncan would most likely be selected whether he was a starter or a substitute.
After the pre-match activities, at 7:58, the starting lineups of both teams came onto the court.
Aldridge watched Sun Ce go to the center circle to jump the ball with Griffin, and felt so sad. Although it was Sun Ce who jumped the ball, Aldridge had to play center again!
It’s okay to play center in the regular season, but you still have to play center in the All-Star season...
At 8 o'clock sharp, the All-Star Game begins! The referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air. Sun Ce and Griffin jumped up hard...
Height, their bare feet are the same height. Sun Ce's arm span is almost 10 centimeters longer. Griffin's bullet speed is faster, while Sun Ce is two notches weaker... But Griffin's shoulders are already broad, and his arm span is 10 centimeters shorter. Centimeters...Sun Ce relied on his wingspan advantage to narrowly beat Griffin to win the jump ball!
After Curry received the ball and passed it to James, he ran towards the frontcourt. Seeing that this crooked point guard who entered the NBA with him could actually win the jump ball from the serious power forward... He felt much more profoundly than the fans. He and Sun Ce went to trial training and participated in the draft together!
James received the ball and advanced quickly, and Aldridge played center. Their Western team's speed was not much slower than that of the Eastern team, so they directly picked up the speed.
When he arrived in the frontcourt, James watched from all directions and saw Sun Ce running away to get rid of Griffin and cutting in. James led the team with the ball and lobbed to the left side of the three-second zone.
Sun Ce, who was cutting in, jumped up to catch the ball and stepped into the three-second zone. Since he was in the three-second zone when he caught the ball and landed, he got the opportunity to trigger the overlord dunk!
Sun Ce made a false shot, and Griffin, who was catching up behind him, flew up. Sun Ce's Overlord Dunk effect was triggered, and he suddenly jumped up and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.
Griffin flew away, and Anthony did not move to stop it. This position allowed Sun Ce to easily catch the ball. Unless there was a human shield under the basket, he would not be able to stop it. In the regular season or playoffs, the opponent would not let Sun Ce pass at all. Receives the ball easily from this position.
And this is the All-Star Game, the game has just begun, so you don’t have to work so hard on the defensive end.
Sun Ce and James connected for an alley-oop dunk and scored two points. Anthony, who came in, picked up the ball and sent it to Wall for a fast break!
Wall counterattacked and advanced, passing Rose, who lobbed Griffin, and Griffin scored two points with an alley-oop and dunk.
Looking back, Curry received a pass from James and hit a three-pointer. Then Evans turned around with the ball and broke through to attract a double attack and then passed to Anthony for a long two-pointer.
In the first two rounds, both sides played very selflessly, but in the third offensive round of the Western team, Dubi came!
Sun Ce, who received the serve and quickly advanced to the frontcourt, ignored James who was cutting in. He reached half a step outside the top arc and directly pulled up and shot!
"Because one of the teammates who appears with the host is a player named Stephen Curry, and the splash force is triggered at level 3, the host's shot this time will not be affected by the shooting action caused by the sudden stop to chase the shot..."
In the All-Star Game, there was no confrontation at the beginning of the game. Sun Ce also felt good tonight, ignoring the impact of the emergency stop and chasing after the three-pointer!
8 to 4! In more than a minute, relying on Curry and Sun Ce's three-pointers, the Western team started with a 4-point lead!
Sun Ce's goal made others feel his intention to compete for MVP!
Without covering up at all, Sun Ce directly showed his desire to win MVP to his teammates and opponents.
James has no objection to this; although Curry really wants to beat Sun Ce, it doesn't matter if he helps Sun Ce for such a trivial matter; Love and Aldridge have no possibility of winning the MVP, so they only take less shots, and the two He can pass the ball, and it doesn't matter if he gives Sun Ce the ball.
However, they are all players with high football intelligence. They know that it is not a good idea to blindly provide Sun Ce with the ball. Even if they are All-Stars, if the goal of passing to Sun Ce is too obvious, Sun Ce will still be flanked by the opponent.
Therefore, Curry and Love still shoot when they have three-point opportunities, and Aldridge still shoots when he has mid-range shots. The focus of these three people is to find Sun Ce if they receive the ball after getting inside. The first target is Sun Ce.
With the help of his teammates, Sun Ce scored 11 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block after playing for more than 5 minutes!
In the starting stage of the competition, the Western team had significantly stronger firepower, leading the Eastern team by 5 points 18 to 13.
On the Eastern team, the outside trio of Rose and Evans are getting better and better in shooting, but the stronger one is still the offense at the basket. It's just that the all-round shooting has reached a first-class or near-first-class level. Wall has no shooting at all. , Griffin and Anthony have mid-range shots, but Anthony prefers singles...
Entering the rotation, Old Bickerstaff replaced Aldridge and Love and replaced them with a lineup of Curry, Sun Ce, Harden, Paul George, and Anthony Davis.
This substitution is obvious, allowing the three All-Star players who are likely to encounter opponents in the first or second round to play more!
The Warriors, Pelicans, and Grizzlies are all teams with the best young players in the West.
And no one on the field felt inappropriate about this substitution, because this lineup is very suitable for Sun Ce to score!
Harden, Paul George, and Anthony are responsible for defense, and Sun Ce defends in series; Harden and Paul George take charge, Curry assists, and Sun Ce scores.
In the East, Pacers head coach Jorge replaced the lineup with Paul, Wade, Hayward, Griffin and Noah.
Joger doesn't have a very clear idea of who to focus on. Each All-Star can take turns. This is the approach of most All-Star head coaches. It doesn't matter whether they match or not. If the score difference reaches the last quarter, Not much. Then, based on which players on our side work well together tonight, we can make adjustments to our personnel mix and tactics.
In this situation, the defensive trio of Harden, Paul George, and Anthony Davis, coupled with Sun Ce's defensive tandem, plus this lineup's well-matched offense, Sun Ce exploded in the first quarter!
8 of 12 shots, including two three-pointers made by Curry after he made a strong three-pointer, plus three free throws, Sun Ce, who played the entire first quarter, scored 21 points, 3 rebounds, 1 block, and 1 steal!
