"Chen, keep passing the ball to me in the second half." During the halftime break, Stoudemire whispered in Chen Yan's ear.
Stoudemire's half-time score was the highest among all players in the Eastern and Western Conferences, which gave him the idea of competing for the All-Star MVP.
Chen Yan smiled: "No problem, I'll let you sleep with the AMVP trophy at night."
Stoudemire was very happy after hearing this. Although he has been the league's top power forward in the past few years, he has very few personal honors. Except for the Rookie of the Year in the 2002-03 season, he has no personal honors, so when
He will become extremely eager when he has the opportunity to chase the All-Star MVP trophy.
Chen Yan has already won the All-Star MVP and is not very interested in this award. He is willing to make wedding dresses for his teammates and use this MVP trophy to take their relationship to a higher level.
During the intermission, the 'ok' combination once again stole people's attention. The two started a one-on-one show at the beginning.
It can be seen that both of them enjoyed this All-Star event. The fans were also very excited to see these former enemies fighting on the court, but the two did not play for too long. During the halftime break, the league had a lot of fun.
arrange.
The league first celebrated the 75th birthday of NBA legend Bill Russell.
After the birthday celebration, Bill Russell immediately returned to his seat and enjoyed the birthday cake alone.
The reporter did not miss the opportunity to interview the legendary superstar and asked Russell how he felt at this moment.
Russell licked his fingers and said, "The cake is delicious, I like it very much."
This answer made the reporters dumbfounded. They wanted to ask Russell how he felt watching the All-Star game.
The reporter continued to ask: "Did you watch yesterday's dunk contest? Whose dunk action impressed you the most?"
Russell smiled: "There is no doubt that Chen's last dunk was beyond my knowledge. Before him, I never thought that humans could dunk like this?"
The reporter also laughed, because Bill Russell was always doing the same thing.
"So what do you think of his performance today?" the reporter continued to ask.
"Excellent! We all know that he is a super scorer and can put the ball into the basket in various ways, but he performed like a magician today, constantly sending wonderful passes and constantly creating opportunities for his teammates. The game just started
I had a chat with him a while ago and he is a great child. If I had a son like this, I would be very proud!"
There was no traditional dance performance after the birthday ceremony. USA Basketball took this opportunity to commend the American men's and women's basketball players who competed in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. In addition, they participated in this year's All-Star Game and competed in the 2008 Olympic Games.
The players also accepted the cheers from the fans.
As international player representatives, Chen Yan, Dayao and Arab League also appeared in the center of the court and won applause from the audience.
Chen Yan took the lead as a player of the host Suns. When the commentator called Chen Yan's name, the audience gave warm applause.
Then came Dayao and Arab League, who are also Chinese players, followed by German king Dirk Nowitzki, and then Dayao's teammates Luis Scola and Marc Gasol from Spain who participated in the rookie game.
After the international players made their debut, members of the U.S. Women's Basketball Team appeared in the center of the court, and they were presented with awards by USA Basketball President Colangelo.
Four-time Olympic gold medalist Leslie and other American women's basketball girls each received a ring, followed by members of the American men's basketball team. Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and others all looked very happy.
James seemed to be examining the ring in his hand, his expression a bit funny, while Kobe kept shaking the ring in his hand at Chen Yan, just like a child. Sometimes a man's desire to win is so funny.
In the second half, the two sides continued to fight for real. Kobe, who just looked like a child, transformed into a focused man as soon as he came on the court. He stared at his opponent with cold eyes, and completed a steal and dunk in the first round of the second half.
Good show.
Chen Yan continued his style of play in the second quarter, and the commentators couldn't help but joke that Chen Yan was role-playing, cosplaying his teammate Nash, who was absent from the All-Star Game due to injury.
In the middle of the third quarter, the two sides changed players. The West let the substitutes play for a while, and the East sent the Eagle King Joe Johnson and Carter in the backcourt. Mike Brown intended to control O'Neal's playing time. This big guy
All his thoughts are spent on being funny, so letting him play is not suitable for chasing points.
In the last quarter, the Eastern Conference All-Stars gave it a try and reached full intensity.
Chen Yan almost encountered a steal from Wade when he was dribbling the ball across half court. Wade is nicknamed the Flash. He not only has fast legs, but also quick hands. During the Beijing Olympics last year, many players of the Chinese men's basketball team were intercepted by him.
cried.
However, Chen Yan was different from ordinary players. When he was about to lose the ball, he reacted quickly and got in position first. He not only protected the ball but also caused Wade a foul.
"Beautiful! This ball looked like it was going to be missed, but it just couldn't be missed. It also caused Wade a personal foul. This is personal ability."
Director Zhang couldn't help but sigh after seeing such a wonderful round.
Yu Jia also boasted: "Chen Yan's physical coordination and reactions are amazing. He maintains the focus of attack very well. Even if the opponent has a chance to steal the ball, he does not panic or give up.
In the first three minutes of the fourth quarter, all Chen Yan's passes were to Stoudemire. He was very selfish. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he wanted to help Stoudemire get an AMVP. The Western Conference was already leading by a big score. As long as Stoudemire's score was
The amvp who is the highest in the team cannot run away.
Chen Yan passed the ball to Stoudemire very frequently, and Stoudemire himself also performed well. In addition to dunks, he also had mid-range and even three-pointers.
With 7 minutes and 44 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Stoudemire hit a three-pointer. This outside shot also raised his personal score to 30 points. The closest score in the Western Conference was Kobe Bryant's 25 points. For Young
At that time, Kobe definitely wanted to grab the All-Star MVP, but now that Kobe has matured, he intends to be an adult and let Stoudemire, the host player, return home with the AMVP trophy. When he saw that the game was no longer suspense, he took the initiative to signal the end of the game.
The final game ended, 150 to 121.
The Western All-Stars beat the Eastern All-Stars with a rare big score.
Stoudemire got his wish and lifted the All-Star MVP trophy.
Chen Yan did not break his promise and left amvp in Phoenix!
