After Westbrook got the ball, he went straight to the backcourt and rushed to the frontcourt to score a dunk.
"Russell's desire to score was strong tonight."
Curry turned around and said.
Tang Tian nodded.
He and Harden are often compared by the media and fans, as are Curry and Westbrook.
Because the Thunder reached the Western Conference Finals in their peak season a few years ago, but unfortunately lost to the Spurs and failed to enter the Finals.
The fans originally expected the Thunder to go further, but no one expected that it would become a swan song, and the Thunder never stopped moving forward.
Then this season, Durant's reimbursement for the Thunder has a high probability of missing the playoffs, and the disappointment of the fans is getting stronger.
And it happened to coincide with the rise of the Warriors, and the momentum was even worse than that of the Thunder.
The comparison between Curry and Westbrook is also reasonable.
Many fans even said that Westbrook's playing is unreasonable, and how terrifying it would be if Curry and Durant were on the first team.
It's strange that Westbrook didn't hold back his energy to prove himself.
After the first quarter, the score on the field was 44 to 38. Irving felt very hot, and the Eastern team recovered some points.
In the past few minutes of the Western team, Westbrook was basically scoring. He also scored 8 points, second only to Tang Tian in scoring.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Cole went up and down again, and Paul, Davis and others who had not yet appeared on the court also came on the court one after another.
He seems to like this kind of substitution.
In addition, Budenholzer's substitutions were relatively conservative. Anthony and Butler both played this period, and the Eastern team gradually tied the score.
Cole was a little overwhelmed.
He began to replace the starters Curry and Tang Tian in advance.
On the field is a lineup of one big and four small, Curry, Westbrook, Tang Tian, Bosh and Anthony Davis.
On the Eastern side, Teague, Butler, Anthony, Millsap and Horford.
The West team's offense, Curry went to the frontcourt and saw Teague was one step away from him, raising his hand two meters away from the three-point line and throwing it.
This ultra-long distance has almost become his label.
"Dangdang!"
But the basketball went out of the frame.
Horford grabbed the defensive rebound, the Eastern team counterattacked, and Anthony's layup was chased by Davis.
The West team counterattacked and counterattacked, and Curry made a three-pointer and then shot.
"Dangdang!"
He hit two irons in a row, which caused a burst of boos from the scene.
This season, Curry already has a lot of potential, and the three-pointers are like rain.
But it seems that he can't find himself in the All-Star game. Last year, his sliding button "stunned four" was also selected as one of the top five.
This year he couldn't find the outside line again.
The stage seemed toxic to him.
Teague assisted Horford in the frontcourt and scored a goal under the basket, which came from the tacit connection between the Eagles teammates.
The Eastern team has overtaken the score.
There were cheers everywhere.
Although there is no so-called home and away game in the All-Star Game, Madison Square Garden is the home of the Knicks, and the Knicks are the Eastern Conference team. Fans will naturally support the Eastern Conference team more.
Curry didn't even miss the shot. He gave the ball to Westbrook, who took the ball and rushed directly to the basket.
But Horford was very serious, and standing at the basket became his shot.
Davis flew to grab the rebound and gave it to Tang Tian.
Butler rushed to defend immediately.
The Eastern team finally turned around, and now it's a bit of a real fight.
However, Tang Tian didn't make a strong attack. He directly passed the ball back to Westbrook under the basket.
After Horford successfully defended, he took care of Davis, who was defending himself, but Anthony didn't take it back. Westbrook was unguarded at the moment.
After Westbrook got the ball, he easily put it to the basket and scored.
The West team tied the score!
When Westbrook retreated, he smiled and pointed at Tang Tian, indicating that it was an instant pass.
Tang Tian also responded with a smile.
In the East's offense, Anthony misplaced Bosh and missed the basket with a breakthrough layup.
After Davis took off the rebound, he waved it to Tang Tian.
On the Eastern team, Teague and Horford are teammates of the Eagles and have a tacit understanding, and the tacit understanding between the Pelicans' twin stars is even stronger.
Tang Tian accelerated forward.
At this time, a figure was faster than him.
Westbrook!
Westbrook's fast break speed is definitely the top in the league, and he is still rushing without the ball.
Tang Tian passed the midfield, Westbrook had already rushed to the three-point line in the frontcourt, and Teague was struggling to chase him.
After Tang Tian saw it, he threw the ball directly over the basket.
A lob!
Tang Tian really dared to pass, and Westbrook really dared to accept it!
He arrived outside the penalty area in the blink of an eye, jumped up, caught the ball passed by Tang Tian, and pressed it to the basket through Teague.
Teague tried to hide but couldn't dodge in time.
"boom!"
"beep!"
Westbrook's physical fitness in the air was undoubtedly revealed. He smashed the ball into the basket through Teague and caused Teague's defensive foul.
A beautiful alley-oop 2+1!
There was an exclamation at the scene.
After the successful alley-oop, Westbrook was also very excited. After landing, he performed an impromptu dance on the spot, then turned around and gave Tang Tian a powerful high-five.
With Tang Tian's two consecutive assists, Westbrook scored 4 points in a row.
His score rose to 12 points, already tied with Tang Tian for the highest score in the game.
After Durant saw this scene, there was a heartbreaking sound.
Last year, Tang Tian and Westbrook only exchanged some words, and now the two have directly started!
And this year other players are passing the ball to Tang Tian, but Tang Tian keeps feeding Westbrook.
This is not even the MVP, but also to win Westbrook!
on purpose!
Tang Tian definitely did it on purpose!
Chapter 641 Sharing AMVP (Fourth Update!) (Revised)
If Tang Tian knew what was going on in Durant's mind, he would definitely call him an idiot.
The MVP is for the winning side, and it doesn't matter how many points you lose.
Westbrook has a chance, of course he will pass.
In fact, he would also pass it to other people. The fundamental reason why they are all Westbrook is that the latter has a strong desire to attack and always appears in the end position.
Tang Tian's pass reorganized the Western team's offense, and they, who were superior in overall strength, gradually stabilized the situation on the field.
At halftime, the West team regained a double-digit lead 76-66.
Tang Tian scored 18 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists in the half, and Westbrook scored a game-high 22 points.
During the halftime break, Tang Tian was chatting and laughing with Westbrook beside him.
Durant behind him gritted his teeth.
Now he really has a feeling in his heart of watching his girlfriend being raped by others.
Back in the second half, the Eastern team suddenly picked up the pace and started to attack frantically.
Budenholzer is still very tactical.
This lineup without a center pushed the speed of the offense to the extreme.
Moreover, the Western team Gasol is not that kind of black and tough, and the dominance of both offensive and defensive ends is not as great as imagined.
In addition, Curry still kept hitting the iron with three-pointers.
Soon, the Eastern team tied the score.
Kerr was as unresponsive as he was in the first half.
He is now looking at the Eastern team's lineup, and his mind is spinning rapidly.
Before the All-Star break, the Warriors suffered a wave of injuries.
The team's starting power forward David Lee suffered a serious injury and is expected to be absent for about 2 months.
Lee averaged 17 points and 9 rebounds per game before, and he is the core of the team's inside offense.
Lee's absence caused the Warriors to suffer their only two-game losing streak of the season, leaving Kerr in a state of distress.
But looking at the Eastern team's style of play in front of him, he suddenly had a new idea.
The Splash Brothers of the Warriors relied on mercury-laden three-pointers, and most of the time they relied on the speed of offensive and defensive transitions, and it was unheard of to beat opponents.
If the Eastern team's James is replaced by Green, can the Warriors also play this fast game without a center?
The situation on the field became stalemate again.
At this time, Tang Tian took the initiative to reach out to Curry for the ball.
This kind of quick offensive and defensive transition is Curry's favorite, but he doesn't feel good, and the Eastern team's lineup on the field is very difficult to run.
Moreover, Cole did not make any substitutions on the sidelines, which is why this situation is in front of him.
Since the head coach didn't respond on the sidelines, then he, the coach on the field, has to play a role to slow down the rhythm.
Although the outcome of the All-Star Game is not important, the Western team is so much stronger than the Eastern team on paper this year, and it is estimated that it will be miserable after losing the game.
So the best way to win is to win.
Curry also knew that he didn't feel good, so he gave the ball to Tang Tian's organization.
Tang Tian signaled Gasol to drop low, and then gave the ball in for him to play low singles.
James really defends in the low post, but Gasol is much taller than him, and the latter is still a technical stream.
A turnaround throw hit the board, and Gasol successfully sent the ball into the basket.
The West took the lead again.
The western troops scored, and the eastern troops had no offensive and defensive conversion speed, so they could only play positions.
James' cut layup was interfered by Gasol, and Griffin turned around and received the rebound.
The West team went to the frontcourt and continued to play inside.
Seeing that James couldn't defend, Butler shrank in and double-teamed.
