NBA Please Answer 2007

Chapter 70
Dong Shanshan asked: "Is there any goal for this All-Star Game? Like MVP or something?"

Li Zhi replied: "Yes, not only the MVP, but also the dunk king!"

Dong Shanshan was pleasantly surprised and said, "Slam dunk king, really?"

Not only Dong Shanshan, but the Chinese fans in front of the TV were also surprised.Long before the All-Star Game, the NBA officially announced the contestants for this dunk contest.

This year's slam dunk contest has a total of five players, the last slam dunk contest champion Gerald Green, "Warcraft" Howard, Rudy Gay of the Grizzlies, Gamario Moon of the Raptors, and Li Zhi.

Before the game, ESPN fans voted to predict the probability of winning the slam dunk contest. Gerald Green and Howard were 50% and 41% respectively, and the remaining three players including Lee only had about 9%. They were basically soy sauce roles.

"Yes, the slam dunk king!" Li Zhi smiled mysteriously, maybe the 2008 slam dunk contest will be remembered by history because of my existence.

"Then I wish you success!" Dong Shanshan continued to interview some other questions, and then went to interview Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian passed by Li Zhi and gave Li Zhi a thumbs up.He admired Li Zhi very much. Although he didn't think Li Zhi could really win the slam dunk contest, his courage was still admirable.

……

The All-Star Celebrity Game is coming to an end, Li Zhi and other first-year rookies are "hooking their shoulders" in the player tunnel, ready to play.

DJ's inspiring shouts made the audience boil, players from both sides played, and the 2008 NBA Rookie Challenge officially started.

The coaches of the Rookie Challenge are the All-Star Game's "Ticket King" Kobe Bryant and "Wolf King" Garnett.

Although Kobe could not participate in the main game, he did not miss the invitation of the coach. This year is also the first time for the NBA to let a player serve as the coach of the rookie game. The fans are full of expectations.

The rookies of the two teams stood behind Kobe and Garnett, and now it was time to speak harshly. All the fans looked sideways, and Li Zhi also wanted to see what the two would say.

Garnett patted the microphone first, then coughed.As a well-known "talker" in the NBA, Garnett's mouth skills are not bad, and the fans in the audience laughed when he opened his mouth.

"The second-year goal is only one, to win the game and split the MVP." Then Garnett turned to the second-year rookie, "You guys have to fight for me, I made a bet with Kobe, whoever loses will see each other on the court.

"But I'm going to put Kobe in water and I can't even put the ball in Boston's basket!" Garnett said to Kobe.

Kobe shrugged in front of the camera, curled his lips and said, "That's not necessarily true, we have Li and Kevin here, can you guys do it?"

Kobe's words drew cheers from the fans, which shows that the performance of Li Zhi and Durant is indeed loved by the fans.

Garnett frowned and looked at the second-year rookie behind him.

The brightest stars in the second grade are "Yellow Mamba" Brandon Roy and Aldridge, which are really incomparable with the first graders.

The first-year rookies not only have promising rookies like Li Zhi and Durant, but also insiders with comprehensive skills like Yi Jianlian and Horford. The book strength does seem to be better than the first-year.

"We played a year longer than you, and we have more experience than you!" Garnett said after ringing for a long time.

Kobe fired back immediately, saying, "Farmar, put some water on me later!"

The fans cheered again, and it was clear that Kobe had won the round.

Farmer of the second-year rookie team looked embarrassed, and Garnett's gaze made him a little speechless, secretly thinking that the boss is making fun of me today.

Then, under the cheers of the DJ, the two teams in the rookie game were assigned tactics by the coach.

Bryant called everyone together and said, "We're going to start with Michael Conley, George Lee, Kevin Durant, Yi and Al Horford."

Everyone nodded, expressing that they had no objections. Li Zhi also agreed with this lineup. Whether it was strength or fame, the starting lineup was fine.

Then Kobe swiped around in the tactical class and came up with a few triangle tactics. Everyone was speechless. It seemed that Kobe really had a deep "Zen Master" true biography.

Kobe also seemed to see everyone's thoughts, and said awkwardly: "Ahem, tactics, it's better to play on the spot, whoever has the opportunity will do it!"

Everyone practiced and nodded, excited in their hearts. The goal of everyone in the All-Star Game is nothing more than to increase their exposure.

Kobe was relaxed for a while, he knew other tactics, let Kobe play okay, but it is a bit difficult to arrange tactics.

The NBA officially let Kobe and Garnett be the coaches of the two teams, in fact, they also wanted to increase the attractiveness of the two teams.

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins.

The starters for the second-year rookie team are: Rajon Rondo, Brandon Roy, Rudy Gay, Aldridge, Andrea Bargnani.

Baggna jumped to the ball as he wished.

Who is Bagnia, and many fans may not have heard of this name.

But in the summer of 2006, Baggna's name was well-known in the NBA.

Without him, because Baggna was selected by the Raptors with the No. 2006 pick in the [-] draft.

In his rookie season, he averaged 11.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.5 steals, and 0.8 blocks per game.

Although Bagnia did not get the best rookie, the Raptors still have expectations for Bagnia.

Li Zhi shook his head. The Raptors would regret it in the end. Baggna did not inherit Nowitzki's leadership style, but inherited his "softness".

In the future, Baggna and Oden will be known as the top pick in the NBA.

Rajon Rondo advanced quickly, "McGrady" Rudy Gay did his part, received a pass from Rajon Rondo under the basket, and dunked vigorously with both arms.

Rudy Gay's dunk was cheered by the fans. With a cold snort, he squeezed away Li Zhi and returned to the defense.

Li Zhi was stunned, why is this guy so angry with himself, did I offend him?
When Li Zhi saw Rudy Gay make an air cut, he pretended to guard against it. After all, the All-Stars really played?
Li Zhi didn't know that Rudy Guy was indeed angry with Li Zhi, but there was a reason for the anger.

The two can be said to be the same type of players. They can play in the three positions of 234 and have similar styles of play. They shoot well and dunk very well.

Rudy Gay was not convinced, why did Li Zhi have so many fans supporting him while he was similar to him, this game must make him look good.

Li Zhi doesn't know the reason, but he is not a soft persimmon, and he doesn't know how to put a hot face on someone's cold butt, just wait and see.

In the first-year offense, Michael Conley passed the ball to Durant for an air cut. He was called the "Iron God" for half a season. Durant was angry and also made a dunk.

Barkley said: "The rookies on both sides are very angry, and they abuse the frame when they come up."

Barkley's nonsense was dismantled by Kenny Smith.

Kenny Smith said: "That eye of yours is angry? Isn't it just a dunk? It's very common for All-Stars?"

Barkley said: "Didn't you see Rudy Gay and George Lee splashing fire on the court? It's like in Chinese martial arts movies, fighting hundreds of moves in an instant, and then Durant jumped out to help punches?"

Kenny Smith: "..."

　Because of the plot, I changed the coach without authorization, hehehehe, it will not affect the general direction.
