Chapter 173 219, All-Star Game.
It is not difficult to see that compared with previous seasons, the fans' enthusiasm for the All-Star voting in 2012 is not very high.Howard, who is the top voter, only has more than 160 million votes, which is only about half of when he won the All-Star vote in 2009.In fact, 2012 had the fewest number of "vote kings" votes since 2003 (Kobe, 147 million).

Looking through historical data, you can find that since the opening of Internet voting, the number of votes for All-Star voting has been increasing year by year. In recent years, the threshold for being selected for the All-Star starting lineup has almost been raised to a height of nearly 200 million.For example, in 2009, when fans voted most actively, that is, the year when Howard won the votes with a record number of votes. James, Kobe, Wade, Duncan and others actually also received high votes. The support votes obtained were: 294 million, 280 million, 274 million and 257 million.Yao Ming received 253 million votes this year, almost equal to the number of votes (2005 million) when he won the top vote in 255.8, but he could only rank sixth that year.In addition, James, the vote king of the 6 All-Star Game, also received nearly 2010 million support votes at that time, and Kobe received 255 million votes that year; in the 245.6 All-Star Game, James was also the vote king. In the 2007 All-Star Game, Kobe won 251.6 million votes.

In contrast, the results of the 2012 voting were a bit shabby. One of the most important reasons was naturally the impact of the lockout on the fan base. Coupled with the shortened season, the time for the All-Star voting was artificially compressed, and the shrinking votes were also the result. Reasonable things.Another reason that cannot be ignored is that after Yao Ming retired, the number of Chinese fans playing patriotic votes decreased greatly, which "squeezed out a lot of water" for the All-Star vote.You know, the most active time for fans to participate in NBA All-Star voting is the eight years from 2004 to 2011, and this period of time happened to be the time period when Yao Ming played in the NBA.

After the opening of the West, they played a wave of 7-0, while the East entered the state slowly. Howard's violent supplementary dunk was the first time they scored in a sports game.Since he was an All-Star, he lacked a lot of performances. Kobe just succeeded in singles against James, and James immediately responded with a left-handed dunk.

Paul and Dirk Nowitzki cooperate tacitly.With 8 minutes and 12 seconds left in the first quarter, Paul suddenly threw the ball from the outside. Dirk Nowitzki quickly followed up on the left side and dunked with both hands. With 2 minutes and 56 seconds left in this quarter, Paul made a steal and drove straight in. , suddenly hitting the ground and passing the ball to Andrew Bynum behind him, who finished with a tomahawk dunk after receiving the ball.The performance of the generals in the West was more active, leading 39-28 in the first quarter.

The second quarter is the world of Thunder and Junior.With 3 minutes and 48 seconds left in this quarter, Westbrook hit the ball on the backboard, ready to catch the rebound and dunk, but the ball didn't bounce far enough, and he could only end up with a backhand layup after receiving the ball.After Love steals, Durant dunks, and Westbrook dunks with both hands immediately after, hanging on the rim for a while before getting off.During this period of performance time when the Thunder doubled, the Western Conference's advantage reached 19 points.In the last 30 seconds of this section, the two teams made three three-pointers. Paul and Lin Xiao made one each. After Lin Xiao made a three-pointer at the buzzer, the West ended the first half 3-88.

Lin Xiao scored three three-pointers and had no desire to score.

The main reason is that this kind of schedule is still performing like crazy here, what to do, it is not as good as an adult.The West scored 88 points in the first half, setting an All-Star record, surpassing the 1989 points in 87.Kobe's performance was not outstanding. In the first half, he made 9 of 6 shots and scored 14 points, which was infinitely close to various records.Durant blossomed internally and externally, making 13 of 8 shots and scoring 21 points. Andrew Bynum continued dunking and scored 13 points, and Westbrook scored 17 points.

The Eastern Conference seemed relatively lax. Wade scored 14 points and 7 assists in the first half, and James had 13 points.The host Howard scored only 4 points.The East fell behind by a large score, and the defense was strengthened in the second half, and the atmosphere of the game became more tense.James hit three three-pointers in less than 3 minutes of the third quarter. With 6 minutes and 51 seconds left in this quarter, he dunked in a fast break and then assisted Wade. The Eastern Conference only trailed 95-102.

The two sides began to fight desperately for the victory, James did not have the slightest smile on his face, and Wade was also serious.With 8 minutes and 48 seconds left in this section, Kobe turned around and passed Wade. Wade followed up from behind and threw his hands at Kobe. As a result, Kobe's nose was bleeding. Fortunately, it was not serious and he remained on the court.Bryant made two free throws, scored 18 points, and scored 262 points in the All-Star Game, tying Michael Jordan's All-Star record.With 4 minutes and 56 seconds left in this section, Kobe dunked with both hands, breaking Jordan's record and becoming the player with the most points in the All-Star Game.

Lin Xiao began to play balls for other players continuously, counting assists. The game was about to start a real battle. After Anthony missed a three-pointer, LeBron James directly grabbed the offensive rebound and hit the ball floating in the air. Enter.

"What kind of bullshit is this horse riding?" Lin Xiao said unhappily.

But there was no way, Steve Nash succeeded in another steal and made a three-pointer from the outside line. After receiving the pass, Lin Xiao made a steady hit!

The game continued, Lin Xiao was replaced by Kobe, and the court became their decisive time.

Rick Carlisle handed over the game to Kevin Durant, Andrew Bynum, Kobe Bryant and others in a bad way and decided to let them be high. If something goes wrong with the high, the Mavericks in the West will bear the brunt of the benefits.

However, the players are well aware of Rick Carlisle's cleverness. Howard continues to exert his strength and wants to win the mvp. As the host, the players also let him perform, but now it is going to the final game.

Kobe made two free throws and made one free throw, leaving the West with only 16.3 seconds left. James passed the ball to Derrick Rose, but he missed a three-pointer, grabbed the offensive rebound and wanted to make a tip-up. Steady, Kobe scored Durant from the outside, and Durant made another three-pointer!
At the end of the game, the score was fixed at 154:157.
The West won the game. The MVP of the game was Kevin Durant of the Thunder. He scored 36 points and 7 rebounds.
