Super all-around point guard

Chapter 172 Take the director in the air!

The All-Star Rookie Challenge began in 1994. In the first two years, the league simply divided the rookies into two teams. From 1996, the rookies began to be divided according to the Eastern and Western leagues they belonged to. From 2000 to 2011, the rookie game became a freshman against a sophomore. In 2012, it was changed to a mixed team of first and second grades for confrontation.

And this year, the All-Star Rookie Game has made a revolutionary change, allowing the first and second graders of the United States to face the first and second grade players of other countries. In this way, the confrontation will be stronger.

Representative members of the US team include Xie Chen from the Heat, McAway from the 76ers, Oladipo from the Magic, Zach LaVine from the Timberwolves, Noel from the 76ers, Plumlee from the Nets, Cody Zeller, etc...

The representatives of the international team include Wiggins of the Timberwolves, Adams of the Thunder, Antetokounmpo of the Bucks, Mirotic of the Bulls, Schroeder of the Eagles and so on.

Although there are second-year members in it, the biggest highlight of this game is Xie Chen vs. Wiggins.

Two minutes before the start of the game, Xie Chen seemed distracted, his state of concentration was not very focused, and the ball was handed over to Zach Lavin. Katie's appearance surprised Xie Chen, especially during the day. Xie Chen had just bought Katie's birthday present. Today is Katie's birthday, but the gift was placed with Wade, but even if he brought it to the arena, would Xie Chen choose to give it to her?

Two people who were once close, but once alienated, the relationship is more embarrassing than strangers.

Katie came to work here as an ESPN reporter. She herself hosted the FIRSTTAKE program. It stands to reason that she could not be so busy, but she insisted on coming here to work as a war correspondent. The intention is self-evident.

Katie and the camera walked towards the 03 Golden Generation. Katie took the seat to Wade's right and was about to start interviewing the three of them. However, as soon as Katie sat down, Wade hummed a birthday song.

James wondered for a while: "D-WADE, does anyone have a birthday today?"

Wade smiled and said nothing, Katie eased up, entered the identity of a reporter, greeted the three of them, and then asked the three of them: "Dwyane Wade, LeBron, Cameron, come to the rookie game today, do you remember the scene when you played the rookie game back then? Back then, you abruptly turned the rookie game into a slam dunk contest. What do you think of this year's rookie game?"

As soon as they heard Katie's question, the three of them were very happy, and indeed they were full of emotions. They didn't expect that 11 years would pass in the blink of an eye, but the three of them were still sitting together, and they were all the leaders of the current team. However, there are too many facts that happened in these 11 years.

James smiled and said, "Wow, coming here to see the new youngsters playing, it really doesn't make people feel that we are really old. Haha, the All-Star rookie game back then was the same as today, and it didn't attract too much attention. Everyone waited for two days to watch Kobe, AI, Carter, T-MAC, and O'Neal. But in fact, our rookie game was also very good."

James was obviously concerned about not being selected to the All-Star team in his rookie season. Anthony, who also cared about this, went on to say: "Yes, if you look back at our rookie game now, you will think it's great. In addition to the three of us, there are Stoudemire, Yao Ming, Ginobili, Bosh, and Boozer. These guys who are on the court now will also have a large number of superstars in the future."

Wade said with a smile: "The popularity is gradually increasing. Me, LeBron, Cameron, and Chris Bosh are all like this. But now there is one on the field who is stronger than us. He was selected as the All-Star starter in the first year. Do you know who it is? Miss reporter?"

Hearing Wade's question, even Xie Chen on the field stopped moving. Katie said awkwardly: "Of course I know, Chris Xie from the Miami Heat."

Wade continued to tease: "That's right, my teammate is great, he is very popular, many girls like him, and a girl from Los Angeles showed love to him at the Staples Center!"

Katie was already blushing, and the interview could not continue, but Anthony and James suddenly realized that the reporter in front of them was the girl who showed love to Xie Chen at the scene!
At this moment, Wiggins on the field completed a steal, and then quickly passed the ball to Antetokounmpo, who was about to go down. Antetokounmpo strode towards the basket and easily completed a dunk!
Yang Jian couldn't help exclaiming: "Oh, good shot! A cooperation between Wiggins from the Timberwolves and Antetokounmpo from the Bucks, the international team was full of firepower at the beginning, especially Wiggins and Antetokounmpo, frequently staged alley-oop dunks, but Xie Chen didn't make any movement yet."

Zhang Weiping continued: "Yes, Xie Chen usually strikes later, let you play first, and I'll play after you finish, and the rookie game is not what he values ​​most. Tomorrow's three-point contest and the day after tomorrow's All-Star Game are the main events."

Yang Jian also nodded in agreement and said, "Well, I would also like to remind the audience that at 08:30 tomorrow morning, our program will be locked. Not only will there be a slam dunk contest, but the three-point contest is also known as the matchup of the strongest three-point lineup in history. I believe it will definitely feast your eyes!"

Xie Chen wasn't thinking of attacking later, but Katie's appearance disturbed Xie Chen's thoughts. In addition, Xie Chen didn't value this game very much. All the statistics of scoring and stealing would not increase the system points, and the opponent was weak, so he couldn't arouse Xie Chen's interest.

However, since Wiggins and Antetokounmpo have already started dunking performances, of course they can’t play too badly on their side. Like James said, maybe there are few people who pay attention to this rookie game now, but after a few years, when these people have grown into superstars with tens of millions of fans, and then look at this game in reverse, at least they must be able to watch it.

Since if you want to perform, you must have the opportunity to make a fast break. If you want to play a fast break, you must grab a rebound or steal as soon as possible. Xie Chen patted Zach Lavin on the back, implying that the other party's performance is about to start.

As soon as Essam from Australia of the international team received the ball, before he could recover, Xie Chen cut it off immediately with a slap, and then quickly pushed to the frontcourt.

Seeing this scene, Yang Jian was also shocked and said: "It's broken! Xie Chen is the first steal in this game, let's see how he plays this ball!"

Xie Chen's steal attracted the attention of everyone on the scene. Xie Chen quickly pushed to the basket, while the defender was still sticking to Xie Chen. He didn't mean to give up. Xie Chen didn't intend to score by himself. Zach Lavin on the left had already followed. Xie Chen smashed the backboard, and Zach Lavin flew up from behind, bang!

Dunk with both hands!

"Beautiful dunk cooperation! Xie Chen and LaVine returned a ball to Wiggins and Antetokounmpo."

It was the international team's turn to attack, and Wiggins asked for the ball, so he played singles. Because the All-Star Game was basically not very defensive, so he just blocked Wiggins symbolically. Seeing Wiggins' sudden determination, he stopped following.

However, Wiggins had just finished dunking and was excited. Unexpectedly, the American team quickly served the ball. Xie Chen pushed the basketball to half court in the blink of an eye, and then, just one step past half court, threw the ball to the basket!

There was a burst of exclamation at the scene!Start passing the ball so far!
boom!Zach Laven, known as "Bai Wei Shao", once again soared into the sky, with his hands hanging on the basket again!
Even Wade and Anthony couldn't help applauding and applauding.

"It's a great pass, buddy! I kind of want you to pass the ball to me tomorrow, haha!" Zach LaVine was shocked by Xie Chen's assist, ran over and smiled at Xie Chen, but Xie Chen didn't look at him at this time, and even pushed LaVine away and ran forward quickly!
"What?" Zach Laven wondered for a while, why didn't Xie Chen give him a high-five and ran forward?Shouldn't you go back to the defense?Could it be... Xie Chen is going to steal it? !
It was only then that Zach Lavin noticed that the international team wanted to learn how to advance quickly and play faster because they saw a fast backcourt serve from their side, so the person who received the ball in the backcourt was far away from the person who served the ball, which gave Xie Chen the opportunity to steal!

Xie Chen intercepted in front of Wiggins like the wind, broke the serve, and then, the moment he broke the ball, he threw it towards the basket without even looking at it. He knew that Zach Lavin would definitely appear there.

Sure enough, the two had an amazing tacit understanding, and LaVine flew up again, catching the basketball in the air and dunking the windmill!

"Three times! Three alley-oops in a row! What a beauty!"

The atmosphere on the scene was instantly ignited. Although there were not many fans, everyone clapped their hands excitedly. Even at this moment, they enjoyed it more than watching the All-Star Game.

LaVine was overjoyed, he was so happy to have a teammate like Xie Chen!
Because Xie Chen made the game entertaining and enjoyable, everyone played more freely, and then there were more mistakes and intercepted passes. The next 2 minutes were simply a feast of stealing the ball back and forth between the two sides.

Not long after, Xie Chen's steals reached 5 times in the first half. It can only be said that using S-level stealing skills to deal with these rookies and using them in low-intensity games is simply too cool.

Antetokounmpo stretched out his long arms for a beautiful interception, then dribbled the ball to the basket alone, made a beautiful back turn, but instead of dunking, he passed it to Wiggins chicly, but Xie Chen suddenly appeared and made another interception!
"Oh, this is Xie Chen's sixth steal! He steals like a player. Even if he plays casually, he has to admit that his stealing ability is really good." Yang Jian couldn't help admiring, and began to look forward to how Xie Chen would cooperate with his teammates.

Everyone in the international team also knows that Xie Chen will not dunk before the All-Star Game, and may not even dunk in the All-Star Game, so this ball will focus on Zack Lavin, who has cooperated with him many times. Even if it is the All-Star Game, it is impossible for the opponent to continue playing.

Then, Xie Chen dribbled all the way to the basket, replaced a dribble with his left hand and threw the ball under the basket. A black player caught the ball and completed a back dunk!
This time it was replaced by Oladipo!In the first half, Xie Chen turned into an empty-air director, mobilizing the atmosphere to the highest value!
