Seven Hundred and Forty-Two. This Is Not the Rookie Game You Thought It Would Be.

"King of the Rookie Game (B): In the All-Star Rookie Game where the host participates, the MVP cannot be left behind by others.

Goal 1: The host needs to lead the second-year team to defeat the rookie team in the 2011 Los Angeles All-Star Rookie Game.

Goal 2: The host needs to win the MVP in the 2011 Los Angeles All-Star Rookie Game.

Goal 3: The host needs to organize John Wall, who has made bold statements, to refresh the host's rookie single-game assist record, or create a new record.

Event reward: Peak star experience card for players participating in the 2011 Los Angeles All-Star Rookie Game.

Note: If any target fails, the event fails. "

"Ma Mai Phi!"

Sun Ce originally regarded the rookie game as a fun game. He already won the MVP last year and had no idea about this kind of game. I saw Wall saying he wanted to break his rookie game assist record and didn't think it was anything. He last year With the thought of breaking Paul's record, he got 18 assists, which was exactly one more than Paul.

There will definitely be more rookies who want to break these records in the future. He will not be able to participate in the rookie game again in the future, and it will definitely be broken.

But now he has become one of the targets of the incident!

Goal 1 and Goal 2 are integrated. You must win first before you have a chance to win the Rookie Game MVP. It seems that there has never been a player in NBA history who won the Rookie Game MVP twice, and it is unlikely to happen in the future. Some Players who won the MVP in their rookie year will no longer have to compete for it in their second year, just like Sun Ce.

Now Sun Ce can also choose to ignore this event because there is no failure penalty.

but……

Peak star experience card!

If you are really lucky to get the star experience cards of Curry, Harden, and Paul George, these three guys who were MVP candidates or even won MVP in their peak years, you will make a lot of money! Evans' peak star experience Kasunte doesn't know what it will be like, but is looking forward to it.

Even if you get the peak star experience cards of Wall, Holiday, and Matthews, it looks good.

only……

It's a bit embarrassing to compete with a bunch of rookies for the MVP of the rookie game.

Sun Ce felt that he had to think of a way.

You can't compete with the rookie team for no reason. The lineup of their second-year team is originally unreasonable, and not many people may have the desire to compete.

No, Curry regarded this game as a three-point training game and had been practicing three-pointers before the game.

The second-year team member has played for more than a year. Compared with Biao, who was a rookie last season and insisted on playing against the second-year team regardless of the unreasonable lineup, he is much calmer now and knows his importance in the team. He always plays the game. Those with potential injuries are not so willing to compete in the rookie game in their second year.

But in this regard, as a Chinese, Sun Ce quickly thought of a way...

After Sun Ce thought of a way, he clapped his hands and attracted the attention of his teammates.

"Brothers, have you heard? That group of first-year students want to trample us on the floor in Angel City and get a higher position..." Sun Ce said this with a disdainful tone.

Relying on the effect of "C-level leader's light", the effect of Sun Ce's words has been strengthened. His tone made these second-year teammates feel a little more disdain for the rookie team. What he said made these second-year teammates more disdainful. There is an additional "arrogant" view towards rookie team players.

However, these people didn't quite understand what Sun Ce meant when he suddenly said this. Even Curry, Harden, and Evans didn't understand. In their opinion, there was no need to work hard to play in the rookie team, and they could just play casually. It doesn’t matter if you win or lose.

Ibaka, Holiday, Blair, and Matthews have only average relationships with Sun Ce. They can only say that they know each other, but they have no personal connections and it is difficult to ask.

But Sun Ce knew that there was someone who would definitely take over.

Sure enough, Zhan Nings asked as Sun Ce expected: "Lord, what do you mean?"

Sun Ce still had the same contemptuous look: "It doesn't mean anything special, I just think those rookies don't like it and I want to beat them up.

I heard that there was a No. 1 overall pick named Wall who wanted to steal my rookie assist record. There was an old No. 1 pick named Griffin who wanted to dunk on each of us. A man named Neal is very confident in his three-pointers and says he is the strongest shooter of the new generation. There is a man named George who claims to be the successor of Kobe Bryant. There is a man named Bledsoe who says he will become The strongest among counterattack players..."

Sun Ce paused for a moment after speaking. He didn't care whether the first-year students said those words or not. Anyway, he first thought that the first-year students said those words and deliberately poked the very sensitive parts of these second-year teammates.

Seeing that these teammates were either disdainful, unhappy, or interested... Sun Ce's goal was achieved!

"We don't have many opportunities to play together, so I don't want to be looked down upon by others. We, the 2009 rookies, are the strongest. No matter in the past or in the future, we will be the strongest..." Sun Ce said in a more serious tone. He became more and more excited, "It's rare for us to get together to play together, how can we lose? We can't be looked down upon by these rookies!"

Several teammates looked at each other and felt that Sun Ce was right!

"You want to dunk on me? Slap that fake rookie to death!" Ibaka looked displeased at Griffin.

"The strongest pitcher?" Curry felt that he was still not strong enough and was actually looked down upon by a role player.

"I am the successor of Mamba!" Jennings clenched his fists.

"..."

"..."

Everyone has their own ideas, and their fighting spirit is more or less aroused by Sun Ce!

Step by step, step by step, he aroused the fighting spirit of these temporary teammates... Sun Ce is getting more and more skilled in this aspect.

However, there are also calm people, and surprisingly, it is Harden!

Harden expressed his concerns: "Our lineup structure is not good. We only have two inside players, Sergi and DeJuan. We are at a disadvantage in rebounding. We can only compete with the opponent in shooting..."

"Then let's compete in shooting. As for rebounding... Don't worry, you have Xiao Ba Wang!" Sun Ce gave his teammates the last shot of booster.

Yes!

The players of the sophomore team remembered that Sun Ce's average of 12.7 rebounds per game ranked third in the league's rebounding list!

The strongest rebounding expert is in the town!

Curry is the three-point king so far this season, and has shown the talent that can pull a level with others. The average of 2.9 three-pointers per game is nearly 0.5 higher than the second.

In terms of assists, Sun Ce, Evans and Jennings are all players who average 5+ assists per game. Curry and Harden's ability to organize offense is also good.

Blair's size is very advantageous for bullying first- and second-year opponents. Even Ibaka doesn't dare to say that he can defend Blair in a one-on-one match. Just like in high school and college, first- and second-year players are very physically demanding.

On the defensive end, Sun Ce + Ibaka can defend the inside line well, and Holiday on the outside line seems to be no problem. At most, they can play for a longer time.

When a loophole is "filled", the second-year team players have the illusion that there are no problems in every aspect...

...

Although the fighting spirit of teammates has been aroused, it is definitely not that simple. The lineup structure of the two teams is indeed too different.

After the fighting spirit was ignited, Sun Ce and others paid great attention to this issue.

Illusions are just illusions. These players are all of high basketball IQ and began to pay attention to this game.

If you think about it carefully, the opponent really has the ability to step on them!

The rookie team has four serious inside players, Griffin, Monroe, Cousins, and Favors. The sophomore team only has Ibaka and Blair, both of whom are short inside players. Although Monroe and Cousins ​​cannot play together, it will be difficult for the sophomores to play one by one.

So we started to discuss intensively.

Sun Ce was responsible for building the framework of the play. The offensive tactics were just one word: fast!

The defense was a big problem, but Blair made suggestions. He wanted to win and win the MVP. He knew very well that the rookie game MVP might be the only MVP he had a chance to win in his NBA career. To win the MVP, he had to win first.

Blair was responsible for giving advice. He was bold and brought out the Spurs' tactics. Ibaka was also a very talented defensive player who had already used his talent. With Blair giving advice, Ibaka began to urge his teammates to plan defense...

He really got serious!

None of these people are weak. They were the core of the team in college and played well in the NBA. Relatively speaking, Blair, who performed the worst, averaged 8 points and 7 rebounds per game this season, almost reaching the maximum salary level.

They discussed and had a set of problems. Their ability to solve problems was really good.

In particular, they understood one thing: if their coach didn't care, the other side wouldn't be much better.

The rookie team was led by Lakers assistant coach Brian Shaw. If Brian Shaw really wanted to use the triangle offense... the sophomores would be so happy.

Although they knew that their lineup structure was not as good as the rookie team, the sophomores were very confident. They just felt that they were stronger than the rookie team!

Last year, they relied on group efforts to defeat the sophomore team with Westbrook and Rose. They were not afraid to do it again this year!

At around six o'clock, when Dan D'Antoni returned to the training ground, he found that these temporary players were working hard to warm up and prepare for the game, and from time to time they thought of something and raised opinions or questions to their teammates around them, and then everyone solved it together.

From the experience of an old coach who has been an assistant for so many years, the ideas of this group of players to solve the problem are very one-sided, but this is not the point.

Dan D'Antoni has a lot of questions in his head - when he left, didn't this group of people not take the rookie game seriously and just want to play around? How come he went to play Warcraft for two hours, and when he came back, he felt that the world had changed?

…

…

Wall + Griffin VS Sun Ce + Evans.

A few hours ago, the players of the second-year team had no idea about the rookie game, but the fans were different. They really wanted to see these players with super giant potential play against each other when they were young.

Just like the 1997 rookie game is still talked about, fans will look forward to the rookie game every year.

Not only that, although everyone knows that the rookie game may rarely see two teams take it seriously, and the dunk contest is almost impossible to see the grand occasion of Wilkins, the essence of human movies, Jordan, the god of basketball, and Larry Nance, the first dunk champion, competing on the same field, and it is also difficult to see the greatness of the dunk contest after the dunk contest was canceled, and the flying man Carter suddenly emerged to save the dunk contest, but fans always have expectations.

Before Carter came out, who would have thought that the dunk contest that had been canceled would be revived by fans who wanted to see a person dunk and collectively wrote to the NBA headquarters to save the dunk contest.

Unlike players who only have a peak period of more than ten years at most, fans have no shortage of time. They can wait, waiting for someone who surpasses the peak to appear one day.

Although the rookie game has gradually become tasteless, didn’t there appear a wonderful rookie game last season?

At 7pm, the venue was packed with more than 20,000 people, and many superstars came, including Kobe, Duncan, James, Wade... and Nowitzki and Yao Ming, who claimed to be injured, all came to watch the game.

Although Sun Ce had no interest in this game four hours ago, those superstars did not think so. They felt that Sun Ce's ideas were too elusive. Who knew what Sun Ce would want to do.

This is a second-year superstar who became the favorite for the regular season MVP!

It was completely different from the usual atmosphere at the Staples Center. Everyone in the second-year team who came out first received warm cheers... except for Sun Ce, who was introduced last.

Sun Ce played for the first time with a mixture of cheers and boos, and it was the same last year.

Sun Ce is used to it. Here in Los Angeles, the fans of a certain blacksmith are not very happy with him, and now there is also a very popular rookie Griffin.

Most media think that Sun Ce is better than Griffin, which makes the mother fans who are beginning to surface now and always say "children" very unhappy.

But there are also cheers. Sun Ce's popularity is not low. All-Star Weekend is not all California fans, there are fans from other places.

After the second-year team came out, the rookie team became the focus of the DJ's introduction. The rookie game is originally a stage for rookies to debut. The game is broadcast live in more than 100 countries and regions.

Although the rookie team composed of Wall, Bledsoe, Neal, Paul George, Wesley Johnson, Favors, Griffin, Cousins, and Monroe does not look as dazzling as the current second-year players. Several second-year players have already entered the first-tier, but it seems that if the rookie team does not consider salary, it will still be a championship-level team after five years.

Think about the 2006 and 2007 classes playing in the rookie game. The two teams combined could not put together the lineup of this year's rookie team or sophomore team. It's not that there were no top stars in those two classes, but that there were only a few players in those two classes who played in the first and second years, and they couldn't even put together a starting lineup. Later, it was proved that the best players in those two classes were not as good as those in other years.

It took more than 20 minutes to introduce the players of both teams. When they finished, it was already 7:30. The players of both teams began their final preparations. The lion dance troupe that the Lakers found from nowhere, including black, white and yellow people, began to perform again. It was very exciting.

After studying for more than an hour, Dan D'Antoni called the players of the sophomore team together and made some adjustments to the offensive style proposed by Sun Ce. After following his brother Mike for so many years, Dan D'Antoni did not have the ability to be a head coach, but he was very experienced in running and gunning.

The rookie team watched the sophomore team still studying tactics before the game. Although they were surprised that the sophomore team was so serious, Wall and Griffin, the two core players of the rookie team, were not afraid. They had an advantage in the lineup and also pulled their teammates to discuss seriously.

Since Sun Ce started the "just want to fight the sophomore team" mode last year, this year's rookie team has the same mentality.

Last year, Sun Ce, Curry, Evans, and Blair relied on defeating the sophomores to show their faces at the All-Star Weekend. This year's rookie team also wants to replicate the success of the 2009 class.

Moreover, they also have confidence! Their lineup is really good!

The players of both teams were very motivated to make the final preparations before the game. Soon, at 7:58, the referee signaled the starters of both teams to come on the court.

The rookie team sent out the starting lineup of Wall, Paul George, Wesley Johnson, Griffin, and Cousins.

The sophomore team sent out the starting lineup of Sun Ce, Curry, Harden, Holiday, and Blair.

Sun Ce walked onto the court, looked at the height of the opponent, and then looked at his side...

This height difference, when I saw it with my own eyes, was even more exaggerated than I imagined in my heart!

There was too much difference. The opponent's starting player was only Wall with a height of less than 201 cm.

But this also means that they have an advantage in speed!

Watching Blair walk to the center circle to jump the ball with Griffin, the four outside players of the sophomore team looked at each other and nodded...

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the game. Cousins ​​jumped up with all his strength and passed the ball to the back, and Wall received the ball.

The rookie team attacked first!

Wall advanced quickly, just rushed out of the three-point line, and quickly hugged the ball, and Sun Ce rushed directly to his face from the other side of the center line!

Otherwise, everyone on the second-year team, including Paul Blair, was pressing and defending!

Although Wall saw that the opponent was very serious before the game, he was still shocked.

This is the All-Star Game! Is it that serious?

Wall was so scared that he stopped the ball!

He stopped the ball before he even crossed the center line!

Wall quickly looked for his teammates, Paul George came to respond, Wall quickly passed it out, and was stabbed out by Harden who was very close!

Sun Ce grabbed the ball first, and the rookie team rushed back and rushed towards Sun Ce. Sun Ce threw the ball to the left at a 45-degree angle, and Curry ran up to receive the ball and shot a three-pointer...

Hit!
