Dirk Nowitzki, the famous inside handler during the era of the four major shooting guards in the league, has been the absolute soul of the Dallas Mavericks for 20 years.

In 2011, he led a group of veterans to win the O'Brien Cup from the Miami Heat's Big Three.

Dwyane Wade, an outstanding representative of the 2003 Platinum Generation, won the championship in 2006. He is recognized as the strongest shooting guard in the league after Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

Therefore, the departure of the two of them is a very big loss for the basketball world and the NBA.

As far as the Time Warner Center is concerned at this moment, both the fans in the stands and all the All-Stars on the court.

Which one of them has not seen the scene of these two people dominating this alliance?

Therefore, sending them off in the most respectful way is the most fundamental respect for the sport of basketball.

The cheers at the Time Warner Center continued, and all the youth, all the tears and reluctance were released at this moment.

"Age or injury are the biggest natural enemies of professional players. Maybe God is fair. For professional players, this is even fate."

Kobe's emotions were a bit complicated at this time. He gritted his teeth hard. A few years ago, if it hadn't been for that damn injury, everything would have been different.

Although he seemed to be very calm when he left, he told everyone that he no longer loved the sport of basketball that much.

But in fact, it was probably Black Mamba's final paranoia. Deep down in his heart, his departure was more of a reluctance.

But there is no way, injuries and age are the real enemies.

At the Time Warner Center, the game continued amidst cheers. The Western All-Stars represented by Yi Jiang Hao and the Eastern All-Stars represented by Giannis Antetokounmpo gave Dirk Nowitzki and Dwyane Wade enough respect.

So as the game continued, they gave the ball to these two guys as much as possible.

But Dirk Nowitzki and Dwyane Wade are both humble people, and they don't want this All-Star Game to become a formality again because of them.

So, soon, the game was back on track.

Bayonet showed toughness on the offensive end in the second half of the second quarter. His internal and external linkage with Anthony Davis caused huge damage to the Eastern All-Star team.

This allowed the Western Conference All-Stars to not only overtake the score but also gain a 6-point lead when the game entered halftime.

"Let's talk about Dirk Nowitzki and Dwyane Wade first. There is no doubt that this is the last All-Star for both of them. Although no one wants to see them leave, in the face of the facts, no one can

Make a difference"

"But what I want to say is that whether it is the departure of Dirk Nowitzki or Dwyane Wade, in addition to being a loss to the league, it is also a boost to the league."

"Back then, when Michael Jordan left, many people thought it was the end of the NBA. In the post-Jordan era, the NBA would really sink. But the fact is, in the post-Jordan era, the four major shooting guards and the four major inside players emerged.

, they have made more people fall in love with this league. Whether it is Dirk Nowitzki or Dwyane Wade, they are all important figures in the post-Jordan era. With their departure, more new stars will emerge.

come out"

Shaquille O'Neal said seriously. He is also one of the important core players in the post-Jordan era. Of course, he is very aware of the impact of their generation of players on the development of the league.

"I agree with Shaq. Fans should be optimistic. Indeed, after the end of this season, there will be no German tanks in the league and no Flash in the league, but their legends still exist. Haven't people already seen it? With bayonets

Has the leader, the young man, completely grown up?"

When it comes to serious matters, Charles Barkley will certainly not choose to go against Shaquille O'Neal again.

"So, who will win this game in the end? Who will be the All-Star Most Valuable Player?" Kenny Smith raised the second focus topic.

"I think it will be the Western Conference All-Stars, because they have taken the lead after the first two quarters, because their All-Stars are of higher quality. As for the All-Star Most Valuable Player, I think it will be the Bayonet because he has already

Got 15 points”

Charles Barkley had always been outspoken, especially under such circumstances, so it was natural for him to stand up and support the bayonet again.

"Obviously it will be the Western Conference All-Star Team. They have bayonets, they have LeBron James, and they have Stephen Curry. If it was the same as in previous years, and everyone was just playing around, I might not say this, but when everyone gets serious,

As Charles Barkley said, the quality of the Western Conference All-Stars is higher. Of course, I can't make a choice about the All-Star Most Valuable Player."

O'Neal's answer was a little more conservative.

"Don't always ask for our opinions, what about you?"

Charles Barkley asked Kenny Smith in turn. Kenny Smith didn't express his opinion when he made the prediction before, and he didn't express his opinion now. This guy is too slippery.

"Haha, what can I say? Of course my opinion is the same as yours. Just like you two said, when everyone gets serious, the quality of the Western All-Stars will be higher than that of the Eastern Conference."

This should be considered unprecedented. The three people in the TNT live broadcast room were able to reach an agreement. To be honest, for the fans, this is a miracle.

………

"Bayonet, you will lead us to victory, right?"

In the Western Conference All-Star locker room, Stephen Curry shouted at Jiang Hao. Curry was teasing Jiang Hao, who allowed Jiang Hao to score a game-high 15 points.

At this time, everyone also whistled or laughed, but it was obvious that no one was showing off. This was the first time in their careers that the All-Star game was played in such a serious pace.

meet.

To a certain extent, this is interesting and exciting. Curry's words just now were meant as a joke, but they are also a form of gratitude.

"Come on, Stephen, you have to show off your power from the outside, and you have to use three-pointers to keep us moving forward. This is what you are best at, or is there another problem with your touch like last season's Western Conference Finals?"

Jiang Hao laughed, and he directly sprinkled a handful of salt on Curry's scars.

Think about last season's Western Conference finals, Stephen Curry's outside shooting percentage was really appalling under his restrictions.
