I really play basketball

Chapter 172

Holding another slam dunk trophy in his hand, Lin Xing was not excited at all, not at all excited.

The main reason is that the opponents are too weak, and the judges also engaged in a show operation with double marks.

Lin Xing won in the end, and it was boring to win.

Holding the trophy in his hand, he didn't even have the urge to raise it above his head.

David Stern, who was standing on the side, smiled kindly, and when he squinted at Lin Xing, he also saw Lin Xing's unhappiness.

The host handed the microphone to Lin Xing, and Stern already had a premonition: he might suffer.

Lin Xing took the microphone and started with a sentence:
"This is already my second slam dunk trophy. I thought I would be very excited, but in fact, I didn't..."

The old man's big heart suddenly twitched.

He was afraid that Lin Xing would say some excessive words that would be detrimental to the image of the alliance.

But obviously, the old man underestimated Lin Xing.

"I don't know why I'm neither excited nor excited, maybe you know?"

There was a burst of knowing laughter at the scene. Lin Xing would definitely not be able to directly point out the official question of this slam dunk contest, so he could only say one thing: I understand everything.

Lin Xing shook his head and continued: "Stop talking nonsense, here, I just want to announce one thing, that is,

After this slam dunk contest, I may not participate in the slam dunk contest again. The reason is that it is too boring. "

Before the words were finished, there were voices of despair and resistance in the Meixi Arena.

Lin Xing is a fine person, he hastily added another sentence:
"Of course, I don't rule out the possibility that the slam dunk contest will become less boring in the future, and I will come back again. It's like..."

Lin Xing prolonged the ending, and most people have already guessed the name that came out of his mouth next.

"It's like Michael Jordan retiring and coming back..."

In the stands, Danzi was about to leave, but he was shocked when he heard someone calling his name on the live broadcast.

Turning his head to look, he only saw Lin Xing with a joking expression on his face.

Turning his head again, he saw David Falk shrugging his shoulders: "He just used you as an example, don't worry about it, Michael..."

Danzi was already on fire, if it was him normally, Lin Xing could make fun of him.

But this time, no!

Danzi's expression became serious, and he was already thinking about the next opportunity to beat Lin Xing violently.

Tomorrow's All-Star Game is actually an opportunity, but Danzi has already made up his mind.

The Bulls have a lot of pressure in the regular season this season, and he is not going to waste too much energy and time on this year's All-Star Game.

Although, the public opinion was heated before the game, this is his first All-Star after his comeback.

Since the All-Star Game doesn't count, the closest chance is the playoffs.

If the Bulls want to meet the Warriors in the Western Conference in the playoffs, at least they will have to go to the Finals.

But with the current Bulls, what will they take to enter the finals?

Danzi narrowed his eyes, turned his head and asked David Falk beside him: "How is that deal going?"

"Very well, the official announcement will be made after the All-Star Weekend."

"Phew, I can finally make up for the insider's slack."

"Make it up? Michael, don't be too optimistic..."

……

The last day of the All-Star Weekend is the moment when the main dishes are served.

In the morning, the star players participating in the main game gathered together and practiced together for a while under the guidance of the Warriors coaching staff.

While facing the reporter, he went through the pre-match interview process.

During the reporter's interview, Lin Xing was asked——

"Sida, you have already defended the dunk title at this year's All-Star Weekend, are you interested in further defending the main game MVP?"

Lin Xing smiled slightly. Although you asked me deeply, I still want to say:
"The game hasn't started yet, it's too early to say..."

The reporter who asked this question nodded ignorantly, but Lin Xing had already greeted him up and down.

The first is Old Nelson. As the head coach of the All-Star Game, Old Nelson at least has the right to line up.

He can arrange the playing time of each star player at will, including the starting playing time, and he has the final say.

Lin Xing directly asked Old Nelson for the most playing time, and the foundation of the defending MVP was laid.

Afterwards, he talked to several starters of the West team.

As Lin Xing can see, the Western Conference starters, except for him, have a lot of pressure on their regular season record.

Dameng and Glider have just formed a team, and the Rockets' record has just started to improve.

The All-Star Weekend is a rare time off for Dameng.

He has no idea about the All-Star MVP at all, only about the defending champion.

Barkley's situation is different. He is injured and was supposed to be absent.

But this year's All-Star Weekend, he is the host.

Adhering to the principle of not leaving the line of fire for minor injuries, Barkley was still not absent.

However, even if Barkley wants to compete for the MVP due to his injuries, he still has to ask his body if he allows it.

As for Dan Marley, it is a matter of personal ability.

He can make the starting lineup. On the one hand, there are no defenders in the Western Conference. On the other hand, the host has a voting advantage.

Finally, there is Sean Kemp.

Lin Xing hasn't talked to Kemp about this yet, mainly because he feels that he and Kemp have the closest relationship among these people, and it's enough to just say a word, and it shouldn't be a big problem.

result……

After the interview, Lin Xing was just about to go to Kemp, but when he saw Kemp, he came to him.

"Stad Stad..."

While shouting Lin Xing's name, Kemp smiled obsequiously.

When Lin Xing saw his appearance, he knew that something was wrong.

"You came just in time, and I have something to find you, Sean."

Kemp froze for a moment: "You want to find me too?"

"Yeah, you talk first and I talk first?"

Lin Xing stared at Kemp, and before Kemp could answer, he made a decision:
"Forget it, let me talk first."

Kemp didn't have time to react, so he could only nod in a daze:

"Okay, okay, you go first..."

"This All-Star Game, I want the MVP, so you have to support me!"

Lin Xing was straightforward and quick to speak.

Kemp, who was already in a daze, was completely stunned.

Mainly because what he wanted to say to Lin Xing was also related to the All-Star MVP.

Or more directly, he also wants the MVP of the All-Star Game.

But now that Lin Xing took the first step, he couldn't open his mouth.

After hesitating for a long time, Lin Xing finally patted him on the shoulder and told him:

"Your job today is to catch my pass and put it in the hoop..."

When he heard that he could still catch the ball and have a chance to score, Kemp saw a glimmer of hope again.

He nodded: "Okay, okay, Si Da, you have to pass the ball to me more."

Kemp is suffering, who made him a power forward and Lin Xing a point guard?
If he is a point guard, does he need to be so humble?
……

In the afternoon, we were still at the American West Arena.

There is only half an hour left before the start of the All-Star Game.

In the locker room, the star players from the East and West are all ready.

The head coaches on both sides, the old Nelson in the west, Pat Riley in the east, have nothing to say, just wave their hands.

So next, it was time for the American West Arena to cheer wildly, and the All-Star Game officially kicked off.

For the Eastern All-Star team, Danzi, who played the most important role, received the most enthusiastic cheers from the audience.

The Western All-Star team, also the top player, Lin Xing, also received as enthusiastic cheers as Danzi.

Before the game started, Lin Xing and Dan Zi met each other's eyes.

Lin Xing regards Danzi as an opponent, although Danzi has no idea about this All-Star Game.

But after all, he is the starter, and 20 minutes of playing time is indispensable.

He had already made up his mind to suppress Lin Xing in these 20 minutes.

Danzi's gaze was fiery, but just behind him, Penny Hardaway's gaze was also fixed on Lin Xing, even hotter than Danzi's.

I have to admit that although this is just an exhibition match, the smell of gunpowder is much stronger than imagined.

Soon, the game was tipped.

Shark also started to work. He pushed Dameng and hooked his fingers at Lin Xing behind Dameng.

Then, there was a scream in the American West Arena.

"Shaq is provoking Star? Hahaha, doesn't he know that Star's jump ball success rate is [-]%?"

In the commentary booth, Mav Albert laughed.

On the court, Dameng also followed the shark and looked at Lin Xing.

That means, why don't you follow him?
Lin Xing shook his head helplessly and could only go out.

Although he went out for the jump ball, Lin Xing didn't try his best.

The main reason is that he feels that if the shark wants to do the whole job, he should keep up with the whole job to make everyone happy.

So when the referee blew his whistle and threw the basketball over the arena, Lin Xing didn't jump at all.

Just spread your hands and watch the shark take the ball away.

A Lin Xing who spread his hands and expresses indifference, and a shark who is "competitive" and even a little urgent.

This comparison makes the shark very naive.

The audience roared with laughter, the shark that landed scratched its head, and asked Lin Xing: "Sida, why don't you jump?"

"I don't want to bully the fat man..."

"Fatty? Who are you talking about being fat?"

"You."

"Me? Am I fat? Am I strong?"

A series of conversations between the two reached the backcourt of the Western All-Star team and the frontcourt of the Eastern All-Star team.

In the round of the Eastern All-Star team, Penny controlled the ball. The practice of the All-Star game is to start each player with one goal after the opening.

But who will play the first ball, there is a rule of order.

Just like the current Eastern Conference All-Star team, it would be outrageous not to hit Danzi for the first ball.

So soon, Danzi received the ball from Penny.

Lin Xing was still staring at Penny, and Danzi started hooking.

Lin Xing scratched his head: Why do you Eastern All-Stars like to hook me like they are seriously ill?

He waved his hand and rejected Danzi.

It's not that he doesn't give Danzi face, nor does he want to give Dan Marley the chance to defend Danzi, Lin Xing really has to face himself.

If someone hooks his hand, he will pass by. Where is his own dignity?

So, Lin Xing refused.

Dan Zidun felt bored, but his operation angered Dan Marley.

Don't look at Marley's white, white, thin and small appearance, he has been a frequent visitor to the NBA's best defense team in recent years.

His defense is still very good.

In the first attack of the race, Danzi was blocked by Marley in the middle distance, unable to go further.

He simply turned over and raised his hand to make a signature fadeaway jumper.

The shot was made, and there were cheers and screams in the Meixi Arena.

But with a bang, Danzi's shot actually hit the frame.

Everyone was stunned to see Danzi smashing out a shot of refined iron.

Marley, the only one who wasn't stunned, even pretended to be aggressive.

Facing Danzi, he said directly: "Your opponent in this game is me, Maikou."

Danzi spread his hands, if his hands were not cold at the beginning, with your defense, would you still have a chance to act aggressive?
Under the basket, the long-awaited dream got stuck.

Kemp, who wanted to steal a wave of MVPs, jumped up and took off the rebound.

Turning around, the Western All-Star team attacked, Lin Xing took the basketball from Kemp, and halftime passed.

Although there was a chance for a fast break and counterattack, Lin Xing didn't push it, and he still fell into position.

The All-Star Game, to put it bluntly, is just an exhibition game.

Since it is an exhibition game, the one-on-one in the positional battle can most make the adrenaline of the fans on the sidelines and the audience in front of the TV soar.

Lin Xing is ready for one-on-one Penny. This season, he and Penny haven't played against each other yet.

This matchup in the All-Star game is a good opportunity.

But at the moment when he reached the frontcourt and settled at the top of the arc, he realized that it was Danzi who was defending him on top.

"Ah, Danzi, what does this mean?"

What else could Danzi mean?From the beginning of losing and losing in late January, to yesterday's slam dunk contest inexplicably lying down.

Now Danzi is single-minded and only wants to trouble Lin Xing.

So for this ball, he directly asked Penny to change his defense.

Penny has an unconvinced attitude towards Lin Xing and Shark.

But for Danzi, he was very convinced.

On the one hand, Danzi's praise for him this season has helped him establish his status as the second player of the 93 generation.

On the other hand, Danzi is a GOAT, not something young people like Lin Xing and Shark can compare to.

Therefore, when Danzi wanted to switch defenses, Penny agreed directly.

"Are you sure you want to guard against me, Michael?"

Seeing that it was Danzi, Lin Xing said a word directly.

"Of course!"

Danzi replied as a matter of course.

Lin Xing shook his head: "Don't forget, this is the All-Star Game..."

Danzi was still thinking, so what about the All-Star Game.

In the next second, Lin Xing let Danzi understand what is so special about the All-Star Game.

"Sida, he directly pushed against Mikou and rushed in!"

"Danzi was directly hit by a tank of Si Da, knocking a body away."

"God, Sta is too powerful..."

Lin Xing directly pushed Danzi away like a bulldozer, and rushed into the penalty area of ​​the Eastern All-Star team.

The All-Star Game is special because no one will help Danzi defend.

Lin Xing rushed in, and so did he.

What he has to face is an unguarded basket.

Clang!
"Successful dunk, the first attack in the opening, Si Da directly crushed the dunk!"
