There are 1 minute and 21 seconds left in the game.
Fanci assisted Pau Gasol to complete a hook layup in the paint.
The Western Conference All-Star Game finally overtook the score.
At this time, Fanshi's total game statistics reached 28 points, 18 assists, 6 rebounds and 1 steal. He is already the best player in the Western Conference. Once the Western Conference wins, he has a great possibility of winning the All-Star Game MVP.
This is something that the Eastern Conference All-Stars cannot tolerate.
Beep!
LeBron James requests a timeout.
His expression was even uglier than that of Charles Barkley in the live broadcast room. When he came off the field, he even complained about Howard, who was guarding Gasol. He thought Howard should be tougher.
After all, Howard is the number one center in the league today, and he is also the best defensive player. There is no reason for Gasol to be pressured.
Howard was a little depressed, but he did put away the smile on his face.
I don’t know when the game started, but it turned into a decisive battle between black players and white players, and a battle between American players and international players.
The competition is fierce and the smell of gunpowder is strong, far exceeding that of previous competitions.
In the fourth quarter of the game, Popovich continuously sent Pau Gasol, Nowitzki, Ginobili, Fancy, and even the whiter black Blake Griffin onto the court.
Popovich is a very interesting head coach. As long as the fire doesn't burn him, he will try his best to save the fire. For him, the harder Gasol and Nowitzki fight, the better. Compared with those in the East,
The deeper the conflict between powerful players, the better. As long as they have more bonds, the Spurs can fish in troubled waters.
So, Popovich is very happy now.
He believes that this will be a fruitful All-Star Game. Maybe the Eastern Conference can win by luck, but he, Popovich, will never lose.
When he returned to the bench, he encouraged the players and told them that they were playing very well and if we kept playing like this, we would definitely win.
At this time, Kobe Bryant had actually seen the fatigue of Nowitzki and Pau Gasol.
Moreover, Fan Xi is not relaxed at all.
Although he disappeared for a long time, the Eastern Conference's defense against him was the strictest.
So, Bryant wanted to play, and he said to Popovich: "The team needs me now."
In fact, this is what the East is most worried about.
The Eastern side has revealed all its trump cards, while the Western side, Kobe and Duncan, have all their trump cards at their disposal.
But, this time.
Nowitzki suddenly said something, he said: "We want to finish this game on our own."
Rammstein Nowitzki has always been a low-key and reserved person. Over the years of his career, he has seldom been angry with others. When he was called a softie, he quietly endured it.
Tonight, he had a bad temper.
At first it was just Paul Pierce saying something about his skin color, and then Kevin Garnett criticized him during the game: If you play like this, you will never win a championship. You are too soft!
Plus LeBron James shouted after dunking: This is my era.
These seemingly light straws completely crushed Nowitzki.
Since Nowitzki entered the league, although he has been highly respected in Dallas and the boss thinks highly of him. However, his career has suffered many twists and turns. He became famous at a very young age. At that time, he and Nelson were under the ownership of Old Nelson.
Nash rose to prominence early.
Then, Nash was traded, but he was still the backbone of Dallas, and he became stronger and stronger under the guidance of young general Johnson, becoming one of the so-called top four forwards.
His team is getting stronger and stronger.
He led the team to continuously achieve excellent results in the regular season, and then reached the finals in 2006. However, with a two-game lead, he was indiscriminately killed by third-year Wade, winning four consecutive games.
Since that game, the American basketball circle has commented on him, affirming his personal abilities, but always pointing fingers at his mental attributes and calling him a softie. Just like Kevin Garnett's trash talk
Same, saying he will never win a championship.
In 2007, he once again led the team to the first place in the regular season, breaking the Mavericks' regular season record. However, in the first round of the playoffs, they encountered the Golden State Warriors led by Nelson.
Turning over the calf became one of the only three black eight miracles in history.
Nowitzki's reputation hit rock bottom.
The Mavericks' record gradually declined from that day on, and the league no longer listed the Mavericks as favorites to win the championship. As Boston and the Lakers formed super teams that summer, and James formed a team at his peak... the Mavericks survived in the cracks.
, the world seems to have forgotten the existence of Nowitzki.
Under such incredible pressure, Nowitzki finally came to the All-Star Game to relax, but he heard such stimulation. Can he endure it?
So, he gritted his teeth and used his Germanic hysteria to reject Kobe Bryant.
Pau Gasol and Ginobili standing next to him also felt the same way.
In the international arena, Argentina and Spain have defeated the Dream Team, and they are also proud of it. Although in this league, they are not superstars, and their voice in the All-Star game is also very low.
On par with Kobe and Duncan, not even as good as Paul, Durant and other rising stars.
However, the ship of fate is coming here.
Their wills were twisted together, and they all had an indomitable determination to compete with the superstars in the East.
When Kobe Bryant heard Nowitzki's rejection, he glanced at Popovich, then at the determined Pau Gasol, and finally set his sights on the silent Fanci.
Fanshie is the most junior person in the Western Conference, but he is the person Kobe Bryant trusts the most.
Fan Xi nodded slightly and answered Kobe's question with affirmative eyes.
Kobe Bryant finally stopped forcing himself.
Popovich made the final personnel arrangements: Fansheed, Ginobili, Nowitzki, Pau Gasol, Kevin Love.
Four white men and a handsome fanci.
When these five people walked onto the court.
In fact, both the audience in front of the TV and the audience at home understood something in their hearts.
However, due to the complicated relationship between the United States, they cannot explain clearly.
Even a loudmouth like Charles Barkley just said: "The Western Conference is too bold, and Popovich did not use a true superstar."
Kenny Smith countered him: "Isn't Nowitzki a superstar?"
Barkley sarcastically said: "Have you ever seen a superstar who was defeated 2-0 in the finals and who had the best record in the regular season and was blackmailed?"
Charles Barkley's tone was filled with a customary arrogance.
At this time, they saw Fan Xi calling four teammates together before kick-off.
He is like a leader.
The camera rolled over, and the fans in front of the TV clearly heard: "...Brothers, use up all the bullets, victory must belong to us. They are just a group of paper tigers, don't be frightened by their terrifying physical fitness, mentally
Strength is the most powerful weapon!"
Under the display of the camera, after Fan Xi finished saying this, he reached out and patted Nowitzki on the head.
"This guy does look like an absolute leader who gives orders. It's just that his ability is a bit lacking."
Even Charles Barkley had a positive evaluation of Fanci at this time.
However, he is not panicking at all now. When he saw that even in the last minute or so, Popovich did not replace Kobe and Duncan, he completely relaxed.
He is no longer afraid that Fan Xi will take away the All-Star MVP.
Because essentially, he doesn't take this group of international players seriously. He admits that some international players are indeed outstanding, but compared with the real chosen sons of the United States, they are too weak.
It is a good thing that David Stern will internationalize the NBA, but never expect a historical superstar like Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, or Michael Jordan to appear among international players.
The Western team is now in camp.
Ginobili's physical fitness was too poor and his physical resistance was weak. He could only rely on his deft adaptability to earn the title of elite player. He even could only serve as the sixth man for the Spurs for a long time.
Pau Gasol has long been proven to be a weak guy. He does not have the ability to lead a team to win alone in the playoffs. He just followed Kobe and picked up some team honors.
Kevin Love, a data brusher who has not yet matured, although he is an American.
Nowitzki has the highest status, but has he proven himself? He has only proven that he can set off the strength of the American superstar.
There is also the last pretentious Fan Xi. The speed at which this kid has become famous is really amazing. Many sponsors also think that he can become a superstar. Nike even signed an unequal treaty with him. However, Barkley does not think that this guy can become a superstar at all.
A superstar is at most a superstar player with a bodyguard of commercial influence. It would be great if his court status reaches the level of his compatriot Yao Wei.
So, with such a lineup, how could Barkley think the West would win?
This is the confidence in his bones.
Likewise, the Eastern team was relieved.
Their final lineup is Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Garnett, and Dwight Howard.
Excluding Kevin Garnett, the other four are the four most powerful people in the mesozoic generation of American basketball. LeBron James ranks first in the ESPN player rankings this season. Dwight Howard ranks third, and Dwyane Wade ranks third.
Ranked sixth, Carmelo Anthony ranks tenth in the league.
Nowitzki, who ranks highest among the Western Conference teams, ranks 15th in the league.
How to compare?
Should the egg be smashed by a stone?
Carmelo Anthony handed the basketball to Wade, and Wade arrived in the frontcourt with the ball. Fanci greeted him without giving an inch. He opened his arms and blocked the way of Flash Wade without any fear.
Many people say that Wade's attacking ability is not as fast as when he was young.
However, as long as Wade is willing, he can enter the opponent's paint area to score points at any time.
Moreover, his upper body strength is strong enough to rival that of post players, allowing him to easily crush Fan Xi.
He didn't do that, he passed the basketball to LeBron James.
James swung back and forth outside the three-point line. He didn't like to do such fancy moves in front of defenders, but facing Nowitzki, he felt he could do more.
Use the big one to defend the small one, and still stand outside the three-point line.
Being a small person has advantages.
What's more, it's LeBron James.
James made a slight adjustment back, and then he charged like lightning. His physical fitness was so amazing that even though Nowitzki retreated early, he still missed the shot while defending.
His tall body couldn't handle such quick reflexes... Poof!
King Nuo Tian unexpectedly fell to the ground at the critical moment.
Staples Center burst into reflexive laughter.
Compared to Nowitzki, James is more popular among American fans.
This is a natural feeling of closeness.
James made it in one fell swoop. He rushed into the penalty area and caught Kevin Love before he could return to defense... Boom!
He completed a powerful dunk.
146:145.
There are 1 minute and 8 seconds left in the game.
LeBron James, with his unparalleled courage, entered the penalty area and scored a dunk, and overturned Nowitzki from outside the three-point line.
This picture is very in line with the aesthetics of American fans.
The place was in a state of excitement.
The DJ dragged out a long tail tone and shouted LeBron James's name.
The Eastern Conference bench is in high spirits.
Dwyane Wade rushed over, jumped up and bumped chests with James in celebration.
This fits James' image very well.
The little emperor!
The future of the ruling alliance is super giant.
It also fits people's positioning of Nowitzki.
A great white foreign star, a superstar who always sets off others at critical moments.
Nowitzki made another big mistake.
This scene will definitely appear repeatedly in All-Star retrospective historical films to highlight James' greatness.
Charles Barkley couldn't be happier on TV.
At this time, Fan Xi walked over and pulled Nowitzki up.
He saw the fear and despair in Nowitzki's eyes.
Then, the whole world watched him pat Nowitzki's chest hard.
Moreover, he stretched out his hand and pressed Nowitzki's head down, and shouted in his ear with a low voice: "Damn it, cheer up. Now is not the time to repent for failure, don't act like a bitch."
The same. There has never been a fairy emperor, a chosen one, and you can still kill him."
After saying that, Fan Xi turned around and received the basketball from Kevin Love.
By this time, Wade had followed up.
Press the whole court.
The Eastern team had a hard time seeing the situation. They took the most determined attitude and used their super strength and will to eliminate the danger in the half court.
They are like the horizontally domineering United States, brazenly placing the battlefield at other people's doorsteps.
Fan Xi watched Wade swoop forward with confidence of victory.
He didn't panic at all, even though Kobe Bryant on the sidelines secretly clenched his fists for him, even though the Chinese fans on the other side of the ocean held their breath, fearful, for fear of affecting Fan Xi's performance.
