If the games of the first two days were a warm-up, then this star-studded All-Star Game is a serious event.

During the entrance ceremony, McGrady and Yao Ming enjoyed the home court treatment, and the cheers overwhelmed almost everyone.

The only one who can't be covered is Sun Hao.

Sun Hao's popularity this season has reached a level that only Jordan can match.

During the warm-up before the game, many spectators with cameras had already started to take pictures in advance.

James was interviewed by reporters on the sidelines.

Sun Hao finished the warm-up ahead of time, saw James being interviewed, and sat behind him not far away.

"Do you want to compete for this MVP?"

The reporter asked James a question.

James has performed brilliantly this season, especially in the past month, and his momentum has even surpassed that of Sun Hao. It is not surprising that reporters ask such questions.

"Yes."

James answered in the affirmative, making no effort to hide his desire.

The third year of his career may be too early for other players, but for him, the "chosen son", time is tight.

Because until now, according to his own standards, he can be described as "doing nothing".

Not to mention anything else, Anthony who entered the league with him has already won the championship.

This is also the reason why he will explode so much this season.

It's time for him to prove himself.

When Sun Hao heard the answer behind him, he couldn't help but look up at James.

Those remarks of James before made him very happy.

And he kept saying what he expected from James before, but he didn't do anything.

The All-Star Game MVP has little meaning to him, and this may be a good time.

After the warm-up ended, the two teams started to play one after another.

Iverson, McGrady, Carter, Yi Jianlian, Yao Ming;

Sun Hao, Kobe, James, Duncan, O'Neal.

Looking at the lineup on the field, the fans can't wait.

Not to mention anything else, four of the ten players on the field averaged 30+ per game this season, and it looks like it will be a battle of soaring points.

Yao Ming got the first offensive opportunity for the Eastern team. Iverson passed the ball after halftime and directly gave the ball to Tracy McGrady.

Facing James' defense, McGrady made a fake shot, made a real sudden stop, and then made an emergency stop, all in one go.

"Shh!"

Tracy McGrady came out on top for the East.

Looking back, Sun Hao took the ball to the frontcourt, and O'Neal took the initiative to mention the high position to play the pick-and-roll.

After Sun Hao broke into the basket, he didn't go straight to the layup, but a return pass to... James!

James was a little unexpected when he received the ball, but he reacted quickly enough to shoot directly.

This is also a big difference between James and the same period in history. He has already grasped the middle distance under the training of Ganon Baker.

The ball brushed the rim and entered the net. Although it was not as chic as McGrady, it was also a one-hit hit.

The Eastern team advanced to the frontcourt again, and the ball went around and went to McGrady again.

Although McGrady's breakthrough layup was interrupted by O'Neal this time, the message sent by the Eastern team is very clear: it is similar to Sun Hao's previous prediction, and they are going to help McGrady "get" an All-Star Game MVP.

Kobe faced Carter's defense and shot back.

"when!"

Pay homage.

The ball was a bit off the mark, and his touch tonight looked average.

The ball from the Eastern team was still handed over to McGrady. McGrady scored a breakthrough this time, and the "cousins ​​connection" passed it to Carter.

Carter made a three-pointer from the outside.

"when!"

Still iron.

This year's All-Stars are shining brightly, but there are constant strikes at the start.

Just like yesterday's individual event, it was unexpected.

O'Neal protected the defensive rebound and threw the ball to Sun Hao with one hand.

Sun Hao counterattacked with the ball, and the West team played a defensive counterattack.

Sun Hao passed Iverson's defense, but he didn't make a layup directly. Instead, he looked back at the moon and gave the ball to James who followed up in the air.

James took the ball and soared into the air in one step, dunking with the iconic Tomahawk with one hand.

"Oh!"

The ball was smashed into the basket.

The "Little Emperor" looked back at the moon, assisted the "Chief" LeBron to lift off, and smashed Huashan Mountain with a battle axe, telling you what it means to rule the world, and the domineering side leaks.

The spotlights on the sidelines flickered, and today's five best goals got.

The All-Star game focuses on performances, and the fans didn't see anything from this ball except for the excitement.

But after the dunk, James looked at Sun Hao very differently.

The previous ball was just an accident, but he was sure that Sun Hao was trying to help him with the ball just now.

This made him inexplicably excited. Perhaps, just like what Jordan said to Sun Hao two days ago, it was Sun Hao's recognition of him!

The Eastern team attacked the frontcourt, and Yao Ming held the ball at the free throw line to support him. He had been observing his partner's movement, and after turning around and attacking the basket to attract double-teams, he quickly distributed the ball.

McGrady, who cut to the basket, received a pass from Yao Ming and soared into the air. He made a one-handed heavy dunk and quickly responded to James' dunk just now.

This caused a burst of cheers from the audience.

This is the "MM connection" most familiar to Washington fans on the scene!

And the belated fans also realized that tonight may be very different for McGrady.

Some people may ask, Yao Ming is the core of the Wizards, and he doesn't have enough hard-core honors, why don't the rest of the East team help him?

The main reason here is Yao Ming's character.

No matter what year it is, no matter whether it is history or reality, Yao Ming has never exerted himself in the All-Star Game.

Without desire, how can other people have ideas?

In the West's offense, Kobe singled out Carter's shot and missed it.

Duncan's quick eyes and long hands took off the offensive rebound and returned the ball to the outside line.

Kobe didn't make the requested move at this point.

If you hit two irons in a row, you will no longer be required. This is very un-Kobe!

No matter what happens, you have to hit the three irons to be regarded as out of form.

However, a signal sent by this is that Kobe does not seem to have much desire for this year's All-Star Game MVP.

Sun Hao was more direct this time, passing the ball directly to James and letting him handle it himself.

There was a commotion at the scene.

James is "solely favored" by Sun Hao!

James forced McGrady and made a layup against Yi Jianlian's help defense, causing the latter to foul the thug.

You may not believe it, but not many people thought before the game that this year's star-studded All-Star Game has become a rivalry between McGrady and James, two small forwards!

Sun Hao, Kobe, Iverson, Yao Ming, O'Neal...all these superstars have become heavyweight "tool men".

This fight continued for the entire game.

And the game is very dramatic.

The overall strength of the Western Conference is dominant. After the opening, they gradually took the initiative and opened up the score a little bit. By the end of the halftime, they had already led the Eastern Conference by as much as 19 points.

As a result, in the second half, Carlisle on the Eastern team put on the combination of MM Gabilups, Anthony and the Detroit Tigers.

The Eastern team began to increase their strength, but the Western team couldn't adapt at once, and the score was caught up a little bit.

Moreover, the Eastern team went all out and continued this momentum in the fourth quarter. With 2 minutes before the end, they actually led the Western team by 6 points.

At the critical moment, Sun Hao stood up. He made consecutive three-pointers from the outside line, plus a fast-break layup after a steal, and personally overtook the score 8-0!

The Eastern team was beaten and could only be called a timeout.

After calling the timeout, Carlisle smiled helplessly and shook his head.

No matter how good the tactical deployment is, there is nothing to do when encountering an unreasonable opponent.

"It's not that he can't get this MVP, he just has no idea."

This kind of performance also made the "Magic" Johnson in the commentary stand sigh directly.

"81 points is not 40 points, it's not something you can get with as many shots as you want."

Kenny Smith on the side has adapted to his new role of "Sun Chui".

After the timeout, the Eastern team has the last chance to attack.

The ball is in McGrady's hands.

McGrady scored 26 points on 15 of 36 shots tonight, not only the highest in the Eastern Conference but also the highest in the game.

It is reasonable to hand over the last ball to him.

Of course, more importantly, it also fits the tone of tonight.

As long as he can make this shot, he deserves the MVP.

If he fails to make a shot, the Eastern Conference loses, and the MVP will be given to James who scored the most points in the Western Conference.

On the Western side, Johnson followed the entertainment nature of the All-Star Game, and did not double-team, but only defended one-on-one.

It was James who defended McGrady.

Such a counterpoint is very exciting.

McGrady pressed to the last 6 seconds, turned around and faced James to launch the last attack of the audience.

He pulled back after a quick breakthrough, and James didn't hesitate easily.

The point difference at this time shows that McGrady can only shoot three-pointers.

McGrady didn't shake James away, so he could only choose to take a step forward, and then retreat to the left to make a three-pointer.

His posture is elegant and full of beauty, especially the last dry pull that makes people unable to take their eyes off it.

But this ball was defended by James and he could only shoot it nearly one meter away from the three-point line, which is not easy for a dry shot.

And James showed his talent, and he also struggled to save and interfered.

Shortly after the ball was shot, the red light on the sidelines followed.

This is a shot that determines the outcome of the game and the final MVP.

The eyes of the fans are all on the spinning basketball.

It's rare for an All-Star game to reach this kind of situation.

Even Sun Hao was staring at the ball in the air.

The backspin of the ball is beautiful, and McGrady's dry pull is textbook.

But there is always a feeling in his heart that the goal will not be scored.

"when!"

The result matched his feeling, McGrady's lore shot hit the frame!
