Chapter 212 Good Temporary Mission!
In the history of the NBA All-Star Game, this time in 2003 should be regarded as an epic, not only because it was Jordan's last All-Star Game, but also because the East and West sides played extremely fiercely in this game.

In this life, although Vince Carter was no longer the one who gave up the starting position for Jordan, but Wang Dalin, but the game also entered a feverish level from the very beginning. For example, Kobe entangled Jordan from the beginning, and Jordan immediately entered the heads-up mode.

It may be because of the bad hand feeling, or it may be that Kobe's defensive strength is really high. Anyway, Jordan did not play smoothly in the opening stage. Except for the first attack in the opening game, he made a steady hit, and the next two offenses were ironed.

Wang Dalin was turning his head and chatting happily with Zhang Zilin who was seated in the row behind him, when he heard Larry Brown shout: "Darling, warm up quickly and get ready to play!"

"Ok!"

Wang Dalin responded, got up, took off his jacket, and started stretching in front of the bench.

Larry Brown told him before the game that he would be replaced soon... Although he gave up his starting position, playing time must not be short, after all, he is the most voted player in this All-Star Game!

Sure enough, just after Yao Ming turned around and scored a jumper on the western side, Larry Brown immediately called the first timeout, replacing Wang Dalin and Vince Carter.

Carter didn't beep when he left the field... He probably knew that he would definitely be replaced.

If you don't replace me, who will you replace?
Who made your EQ low?
McGrady and Wang Dalin rushed to give way to Jordan, but you are lucky to just refuse?
Otherwise, why are your resources so low?
Do you really think the alliance doesn't want to support you?
Is it because your character is not good because you are defeated?

After Wang Dalin came on the court, the Eastern Stars' offense immediately became much smoother... As long as he stood at the top of the three-point arc, even if he didn't have the ball in his hand, the players in the Western Conference would always be in fear, wishing that there would always be someone by his side.

Moreover, Wang Dalin immediately focused on Kobe as soon as he came on the court. He would follow Kobe closely every time on the defensive end. This defensive strength was comparable to the playoffs.

Kobe didn't express his dissatisfaction with Wang Dalin, but Garnett in the West couldn't stand it any longer. After a crossover, he couldn't help but question Wang Dalin: "Hey, Darling, today is the All-Star Game. Do you want to guard against this death from the beginning?"

Wang Dalin smiled and said, "You still have the nerve to talk about me? Why don't you talk about Kobe? How did he defend against Michael?"

Garnett was immediately stunned speechless... Yes, is it true that only state officials are allowed to set fires, but ordinary people are not allowed to light lamps?How can there be such a reason in the world?
The head coach of the Western Stars, Rick Adelman, saw that the situation was not good, and called a timeout to replace Yao Ming, and replaced him with the most powerful attacking weapon - Shaq O'Neal!
Immediately after O'Neal came on the court, he announced the strong attack of the "Sharks" with a two-handed dunk. However, the East also immediately played a wave of fast breaks.

Seeing that Jordan was able to contribute such a difficult layup performance in his late forties, the audience stood up and gave him warm applause and cheers. Even Wang Dalin's "rumored girlfriend" Zhang Zilin couldn't help but screamed in the auditorium.

When it was the west's turn to attack, Wang Dalin gave Jordan a wink. Jordan understood it, and went up and hugged O'Neal, leaving O'Neal dumbfounded.

brother?What are you doing?
The All-Star game also "cut the shark", do you want to be more embarrassing?

"Cut the shark" is just "cut the shark", but you still need to do it yourself?
The audience couldn't help laughing, and Jordan also laughed, patted O'Neal's big butt lightly and said, "Why are you staring blankly? Why don't you go to the free throw?"

With a sad face, O'Neal walked to the free throw line with heavy steps... Who let Jordan foul him?For this boss, he really dared not speak out.

Barkley, Smith, and Bird laughed so hard at the commentary booth that they almost lost their temper. Barkley managed to hold back his laughter and said, "Michael actually played tricks on Shaq in his last All-Star Game... This guy is really bad!"

Bird couldn't help laughing: "It seems that Shaq will never forget this scene in his life!"

Smith said with a smile: "I don't know whether Shaq will forget this scene, but I know that audiences all over the world will never forget this scene... Hahahaha... I really laughed to death!"

The reason why Jordan personally went to "cut the shark" was because Wang Dalin and Jordan had negotiated...Compared with others, Jordan only needs to work hard on the offensive end in this game, and he can completely release the water on the defensive end, so he will basically have no foul pressure. Who will let him go?

Maybe it was because the audience's laughter was too mocking, O'Neal missed two free throws at the free throw line... Well, he probably missed free throws without the laughter!
Wang Dalin took off the rebound and threw it to McGrady, who slowly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball back.

After getting the ball and observing it at the top of the three-point arc, Wang Dalin decided to use offense to open up the situation first, otherwise the opponent would not heavily defend him, and he would not have many chances to give Jordan an assist.

Just do what he said, Wang Dalin saw that Garnett, who was marking him, was in a defensive position, so he pulled it up and scored a three-pointer... With a crisp sound of "shua", the ball has been scored!

It was the Western Stars' turn to attack, and before O'Neal ran into the three-point line, this time it was Ben who went up and hugged him...Since it was clear that he wanted to "cut the shark", how could it be possible to only let Jordan, the big shot?

O'Neill was so angry that he was trembling all over, and he was about to lose his temper on the spot. Wang Dalin quickly pulled Da Ben away, then patted O'Neill on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Shaq, you can't afford to take a joke, right?"

O'Neal showed a smile uglier than crying and said, "Who says I can't take a joke anymore? I'm Shaq O'Neal, the best joker in the league!"

After saying this, O'Neal missed two more free throws at the free throw line. He did not disappoint the "ardent expectations" of more than 19000 fans and hundreds of millions of TV viewers around the world.

Rick Adelman couldn't help touching his forehead... It seems that replacing O'Neill tonight was a complete failure, and he must be played less later!

The Eastern Stars attacked again.

This time Wang Dalin just received the ball from beyond the three-point line, and Garnett has already posted it quickly.

Wang Dalin was not in a hurry, he took the ball and made a fake shot, and then sent a ground pass from Garnett's crotch. After receiving the ball, Jordan cut inside and directly faced Kobe's defensive shot...the ball is here!
Seeing this scene, Wang Dalin couldn't help showing a gratified smile.

There are many "knowledgeable ball emperors" in later generations, and they are skeptical about whether Jordan can still become a superstar in the small ball era.

One of their most important arguments is that Jordan's three-pointers are not accurate... This is true, Jordan's three-pointers are really not good, if you take away the two and a half seasons when the three-point line was shortened, Jordan's career three-pointer percentage is only 28.85%, which is obviously a failure no matter what era he is in!

But with Jordan's unparalleled basketball talent, can't he really practice three-point shooting?

LeBron James' shooting talent should not be as good as Jordan's, right?

Not to mention Jordan, even Kobe's shooting talent far exceeds James!
But when James was in the Lakers, his three-point shooting percentage was already very close to 40%, which means that his three-point shooting was quite good... Even if it is not extremely stable, who would dare to let him go on the court?

James can practice three-point shooting, why can't Jordan?
Moreover, Jordan's CIC is definitely the top in history. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first in history in this area. Coupled with his breakthrough ability at his peak, can't he become a superstar in the small ball era?

Saying that he can't become number one in the world is worth arguing, but saying that he can't even become a super giant... isn't that absurd?
Although Jordan will be 40 years old in a month, he is still full of competitiveness on the court, and he is fearless even in the face of Kobe's defense... This mid-range shot is proof!
Originally, he asked Wang Dalin for help, but he just hoped that he could pass a few more balls to him. Unexpectedly, Wang Dalin did it more directly. In addition to passing the ball, he also caught the defense.
And Wang Dalin wants to accomplish this goal, in addition to agreeing to Jordan's request before the game, there is another more important reason-the system has "assigned work" to him again!
"It has been detected that the host is about to help the 'God of Basketball' Michael Jordan compete for the last AMVP trophy in his career, so the system hereby releases a temporary task 'Perfect Curtain Call'!"

"Perfect curtain call performance: the host needs to help Jordan score no less than 25 points in this All-Star Game and win the AMVP trophy. Reward for completing the task: the strongest second master badge."

“最强二当家徽章：装配后提升可各项能力值，具体细分为提升抢断5点、盖帽5点、传球精确性5点、传球视野5点、进攻篮板5点、防守篮板5点。”

"Note: The strongest second master badge is valid for three years, which is the length of time Kevin Durant has played for the Golden State Warriors!"

After Wang Dalin saw it, he almost couldn't help but burst out laughing—according to the system, you just tell me that Du Xiaoshuai is the strongest second-in-command in history, right?
Uh... It seems that he is indeed the second master in the Warriors, right?

No bragging, with Kevin Durant's super strength, it's really not necessarily worse than Stephen Curry, and it's not an exaggeration to say that he is better than Curry... But the Warriors are Curry's team after all. Even if Du Xiaoshuai is stronger than him, he can only be the second leader.
But look at this question in a different way...Kevin Durant is really the strongest second-in-command in history!

A super fierce man who has won the MVP, has also won 4 scoring titles and 2 FMVPs, and has been selected to the best team 6 times... One counts as one, and which second master can be compared with Durant?
Some people will say that "Skyhook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was also the second in charge during the Lakers?

But Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had already won a championship before going to the Lakers, and the Lakers also established a strategy centered on him that season, but he was suddenly injured at the last moment, which made the "magic" suddenly pick peaches strongly.

If it weren't for that accidental injury, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar would definitely win the FMVP... After all, "Magician" was just a rookie in the first grade at the time, and it was too early to become the boss!
Sometimes fate is so impermanent, for "magician" it is "time makes a hero", for Jabbar... "this is fate"!
Some people will say that Scottie Pippen is not the strongest second in history?
He can enter the scope of this discussion, but with his level of strength, if he is compared with an MVP-level player like Kevin Durant, he is obviously inferior!

It has to be compared with Durant, and it has to be Dwight Wade during the "Heat Big Three" period and Kevin Garnett during the "Boston Big Three" period. The former has never won the MVP almost qualification, and the latter has not won the scoring title. He has insufficient offensive roles.

So the overall assessment...Kevin Durant is the strongest No. [-] player in history, and Du Xiaoshuai can be said to be invincible in this field!
Wang Dalin was so greedy after seeing the attribute of "the badge of the strongest second master", but he couldn't help complaining about the name.

With such a strong attribute blessing, it is actually "the badge of the strongest second leader"?
This should be called "The Most Powerful Master Badge", right?

Originally, Wang Dalin was very concerned about helping Jordan win the AMVP, but now he is full of motivation. Whenever he has a chance on the court, he will desperately feed Jordan the ball. The skill of "making cakes" even the later James Harden has to bow down when he sees it.

The main thing is not the kung fu of "making cakes", but the willingness to "make cakes"... Wang Dalin's passing skills are naturally much worse than that of "Pengci Wang", but can't he stand up to his enthusiasm?

So throughout the first half, the Eastern Stars always had Jordan on the offensive end...and Wang Dalin, who desperately passed the ball to Jordan.

Deducting the rest time of being substituted, Wang Dalin played a total of 18 minutes in the first half and sent as many as 7 assists to Jordan, which is equivalent to directly helping Jordan score 14 points... This does not count the offensive round in which Jordan was fouled!
So, at the end of the first half, the East star team led the West star team by 77 points 72:5, and Jordan also ranked first in the game with 21 points...Wang Dalin was not the only one who passed the ball to Jordan!

At the end of halftime, the court was cleaned up. Players from both sides stood silently on both sides of the court. A plump blonde woman wearing the Wizards No. 23 jersey slowly came to the center of the court... er, actually wearing a tight skirt in the style of the Wizards No. 23 jersey!

That's right, Mariah Carey is singing "Heroes"...
