Back from timeout, Eastern has the ball.

The players in the Western Conference were originally very impatient, especially the three hot-tempered players Payton, Kobe, and Garnett. The Eastern team has been playing tricks. Although the Western team has an advantage, they are already a little angry and have to resort to violence again.

Now that we have the strongest defensive lineup, we must start to defend seriously.

Although I wanted to be serious in the past, after all, it was the All-Star Weekend, not a private game for their brothers. Adelman still had to send all the All-Stars to appear and play for a few minutes, so it was impossible to keep trying to be tight.

But now that everyone has appeared, the time has come to the fourth quarter, and the Western team must be completely serious!

Payton, Francis, Kobe, Garnett, and Duncan are all four on the defensive team. Francis is not very defensive, but he has good physical fitness and is good at defending fast breaks. This lineup can advance and retreat, so we need to start playing hard.

Got it!

The same goes for the Eastern Team.

Many of the previous plays seem ridiculous, but they are reasonable because this is an All-Star game.

That's right, when Liu Mang and Kidd were discussing tactics, the most important thing they considered was that this was an All-Star team. Many people in the Eastern Team wanted to help, but they wouldn't be happy if they were kept in supporting roles. If they didn't do well, they would be taken more seriously.

The Western team, encouraged by Kobe and Garnett, widened the point difference three or two times, and there was no time to play, so I racked my brains and thought about this kind of game. When both sides have people who have to substitute, in the end,

The most effective and undefensible tactic.

For those tactics, the Western team may have just thought of a solution, but suddenly it was time for substitutions, and they couldn't defend anymore. When the Western team replaced with someone they could defend, the Eastern team began to lose ground again, slowly grinding away, and it kept wearing out.

The five people in the West, including the honest and honest Duncan, were angered by the Eastern team's rogue style of play, and came up to defend the Eastern team.

But when I came back from the timeout this time, I saw that the frivolous and relaxed feeling in the East no longer existed. It was as if a group of people had changed. These big guys in the West were all smart people. They immediately understood that the other party was also grinding before.

Wait for all the players who are in the way to finish their appearance and go to rest.

The real game is here!

The Eastern backcourt served, Liu Mang passed the ball to Iverson, Iverson held the ball and advanced, and the two came to the frontcourt parallel to the baseline.

The Eastern team started to run, and O'Neal mentioned the high post on the right to give Iverson a pick-and-roll. Iverson is now starting to learn to play pick-and-roll, but the 76ers have no shooting ability inside and can't play, but this is O'Neal!

CIC is perfect.

Sure enough, O'Neal's threat was much higher than that of Mutombo. Duncan, who was guarding, switched to guard Iverson. Kobe could only go around to guard O'Neal to catch the ball. Iverson saw the gestures of his teammates while walking.

, suddenly increased his speed to the fastest and sprinted towards the three-second zone. Duncan could not keep up! Garnett, who was guarding Rahim from the middle distance on the right, was not far away and came over to double-team. At this time, Iverson

The ball was thrown behind Duncan, who was not completely out of position, which is on the left side of the three-second zone!

Who is there? O'Neal Jr. is in the high post, and McGrady is entangled by Francis at a 45-degree angle on the left. Although Francis, who is serious about guarding the ball, may still be a scumbag, relying on his body to fight McGrady without the ball still has a big effect.

Sim is on the right baseline again...

Duncan and Garnett turned around, just in time to see Liu Mang jump up after receiving the ball, arch his body in the air, and smash the ball into the basket with his right hand!

Liu Mang relied on his speed to trigger the bench gangster faster than usual, and directly threw away Payton and rushed to the basket to catch the ball and dunk!

Duncan and Garnett, the two people who are closest to him, seem to think that Liu Mang's dunks are very different from his usual dunks! Of course, since Liu Mang usually doesn't dunk much, he only has 10 dunks in more than half a season, which leaves too little impression.

I can't tell what's wrong.

On the other hand, Rahim, who was also on the baseline to open up space under the basket, felt that his teammate's dunk seemed to be easier! This time the tomahawk really went in!

However, Rahim regarded this as the fact that Liu Mang's defense couldn't pull him apart when he usually wanted to dunk. Liu Mang's dunks were either no dunks, fancy dunks, or even forced dunks from behind.

Shim blames himself so much. It turns out that our rookie can still dunk violently like other physical rookies even when the defense is completely absorbed.

Rahim decided to work hard! Just work harder.

Rahim may have forgotten that when Liu Mang usually dunks back and dunks, he only dunks reluctantly...

In the transition between offense and defense, there is an advantage to the Eastern team not having Mutombo. It is fast. After Liu Mang dunked in, the five players immediately retreated like a tide.

The Western team also took advantage of the situation to take advantage of the situation.

The score was tied at 129, and the pressure on the Western team came.

The tie this time was not a joke like the previous three quarters. This time the Eastern team set up a defensive formation. The three players in the frontcourt defended well. Although Iverson on the back line was short, his defense was also good and he was at his peak.

, Liu Mang is a rookie, but he is perhaps the most difficult person to deal with among this group of people.

At this time, even someone as confident as Kobe chose to hand the ball to Duncan in the low post!

The Western team had a wide space. Duncan received a pass from Kobe in the low post on the right side and drove in towards O'Neal.

So powerful! Unless he is facing a human shield center, Duncan, who is now at his personal peak, has the same effect as O'Neal in back-up play. He resists O'Neal and turns around and throws to score two points!

O'Neal Jr. clapped his hands hard to show that the ball was his.

Liu Mang saw that O'Neal Jr., who was at the forefront of defense among the power forwards in the Eastern Conference, had no chance of guarding Duncan, so he could only use up his energy as much as possible.

Iverson picked up the ball and sent it to Liu Mang, who advanced to the frontcourt and waited for his teammates to get into position.

Kobe Bryant, who is the best defender of ball handlers in the Western Team, is closely following Iverson. From his judgment, Liu Mang will definitely give the ball to Iverson. Payton's defense is no joke. Guard against Iverson.

You can't guard against it. To guard against Liu Mang holding the ball, just be careful not to get fouled. That's fine...

Then, Liu Mang directly faced Payton and made a huge difference on the defensive end. The buffer space left by Payton was based on the 94 speed of Liu Mang he saw when he played against Liu Mang before.

Yes, it was these three points of difference in speed. Liu Mang brushed Payton's arm and rushed straight into the paint! Payton couldn't catch up in time!

Liu Mang drove into the basket, without stopping or slowing down, and rushed to the left side of the three-second zone. When Duncan came to defend him, he jumped up. Duncan judged that this was the first step of Liu Mang's three strides, and then started

Predict Liu Mang's next move.

But Duncan thought too much, Liu Mang took the first step with his left foot, and at the same time threw the ball towards the basket with his left hand and foot!

Liu Mang understood this kind of touch. If Iverson was not too short to get into the paint and easily blocked, and he could be seen through by people, this short-range throw was really powerful. When the double team was not in place, he could completely avoid it.

Open the inside defense and make a perfect shot!

"Shua"

Liu Mang's step-over throw is much more accurate than usual! This feeling is the same as the three-point shooting feeling that Liu Mang found with Thompson's three-point shot!

Liu Mang had a hunch that even if Iverson's card ended, he could rely on this feeling of shooting and practice hard to achieve the same level. He might even be able to develop a stronger step-over throw because of his softer touch and height advantage.

cast!

Iverson was stunned for two seconds. When he and Liu Mang ran back to defend, they looked at the rookie in surprise.

Did you learn the big brother's tricks? There is also this speed. Iverson didn't feel it when he made an air cut, but this time when he saw Liu Mang break through directly with the ball, his speed was even better than his own!

No wonder this little brother just asked who is faster!

This turns out to be a real challenge to my big brother!

This feeling...Iverson thinks it's great!

Not only was Iverson shocked, but Kobe, Iverson's old rival, who regarded Iverson as his strongest enemy, was the most surprised.

When it comes to who on the court knows Iverson best, maybe Iverson himself doesn’t know him as well as Kobe does!

Of course, it refers to basketball.

Liu Mang's Iverson-style super-fast breakthrough just like a cut-in was very familiar to Kobe. In the first game of last year's finals, he was beaten to pieces by this breakthrough.

But today I actually saw it in two people, one is Iverson, and the other is that speedy rookie, and the finishing moves are exactly the same as Iverson!

Damn it, Kobe couldn't believe his eyes. This was Iverson, and the taller version of Iverson?
Chapter completed!
