I'm really strong in basketball

Chapter 134 2005 All-Star Weekend·
The Cavaliers attack.

Unwilling to give up, James continued to name white chocolate.

Liu He rushed forward to delay.

However, James was more determined this time. Liu He took a step slower, allowing James to pass half his body.

Liu He did not give up and followed James in pursuit.

In this way, James cannot take shots casually, otherwise Liu He beside him can block the shot at any time.

Under the pressure of Liu He, James could only bite the bullet and rush in.

Under the basket, Chandler waited, leaped high, and rewarded James with a big shot.

Snapped!
Regardless of the fact that Chandler is just Pachulia's substitute, on the offensive end, Chandler is definitely not as good as Pachulia who can support him with a mid-range shot.

But compared to defense, Chandler is much better than Pachulia.

The Knicks immediately had another fast break, and Hill scored another 2 points.

14: 2.

Gradually, everyone discovered that something was wrong.

The game has lasted for more than 5 minutes, and the Cavaliers have only scored 2 points so far. They have been completely restricted on the offensive end.

A big center Chandler who is good at protecting the frame and can help defend, coupled with three forwards who can defend Thomas, Liu He, and Hill... the defensive effect is surprisingly good.

The Knicks absolutely stifled the Cavaliers' offense.

The Knicks, on the other hand, relied on fast breaks after successful defense to score easily again and again, with smooth flow and momentum.

Fast break is what Nelson is best at and what White Chocolate likes the most.

With the combined efforts of the generals on and off the court, the Cavaliers simply couldn't stop it.

This season, the Cavaliers averaged 95.7 points per game, ranking No. 11 in the league, which is a very good result. Coach Paul Silas is indeed good at arranging the team's defense.

But the core of the Cavaliers' defense is the ability of the two big insiders to protect the frame in positional battles.

Once caught in a fast break, the two big insiders cannot run, and the advantage becomes a disadvantage.

This is the same as Yao Ming.

In positional warfare, Yao Ming in the penalty area can be called the pillar of strength. Whoever comes in will be directly rewarded with a big pot.

But when playing fast break, Yao Ming will become a burden to the team.

There are no absolute advantages and disadvantages on the basketball court. It depends on the coach's tactics and the players' own performance.

End of first quarter, 30:8.

The Knicks broke up the game in one quarter.

James, who started the game with a murderous spirit, was already dejected.

The previously excited Cleveland fans also became extremely quiet.

Both sides immediately replaced their substitute lineups.

Knicks:

Varejao, Malone, Ariza, Crawford, Payton.

For the Cavaliers, James continued to stay on the court, hoping to narrow the point difference against the Knicks' bench.

Unfortunately, the Knicks' bench is not weak.

Although rookie Ariza is thin, he is hard-working enough. His close-fitting body and two long arms make James upset.

There are also two hardcore veterans in Malone and Payton to help defend at any time.

There is also Brazilian movie star Varejao inside, who is always ready to trick James and cause James offensive fouls.

Look at the Cavaliers again.

The Cavaliers' starting lineup at least has some strength and can give James some help.

As for the Cavaliers' bench, there is really no one, relying on James to play one against five.

The Knicks simply ignored everyone else and focused on defending James.

James felt like he was stuck in a quagmire. There was huge energy in his body, but he just couldn't use it. The fight was extremely uncomfortable.

More than half of the second quarter, 42:16.

The difference between the two sides became even wider.

Subsequently, the starting lineups of both sides returned.

As Liu He hit two consecutive three-pointers, the point difference directly exceeded 30 points.

The game was completely spent.

And James, lured by Liu He, broke into the penalty area and added to Chandler's statistics.

At halftime, 62:28.

The difference is 34 points.

In the last round, James even passed the ball to the referee on the sidelines.

The entire Quicken Loans Arena was silent.

More than two-thirds of the Cleveland fans quietly left the arena, leaving diehard fans with painful expressions on their faces.

In the second half, coach Paul Silas simply stopped playing James and declared surrender.

Nelson also replaced rookies and fringe players, officially starting garbage time.

In the end, 117:76, the Knicks defeated the Cavaliers with 41 points.

刘河只打了19分钟，砍下15分4篮板3助攻3抢断1盖帽。

另一边，詹姆斯9投1中，得到3分4篮板3助攻4失误。

Liu He once again defeated James and continued to declare his No. 03 status in 1.

而本赛季第一次首发的钱德勒高效砍下6分7篮板（3前场）1助攻4盖帽（2次来自詹姆斯）。

……

This is also the second time this season that James only scored 3 points.

Last time, it was the Rockets led by Yao Ming who gave James three points.

This time, it’s the Knicks led by Liu He.

Fans discovered that the Chinese are James' nemesis!
Whenever James meets these two guys, he never performs normally.

In addition, some time ago, Wade, Anthony, and Liu He took turns beating Howard, the No. 04 pick in the [-] draft, while James led the team and lost to the Magic. His own performance was also average. Many fans began to question: Can James do it?
"James' skills are too rough and his offensive methods are too simple. He mainly finishes at the basket. Once he encounters a big man with excellent frame protection ability, his performance will not be very good. Yao Ming, Howard, and Chandler have all proved this. "

Of course, at the end of the day, James is not even 20 years old.

At this age, fans can tolerate all of James' problems.

Because he is so young and so talented.

Everyone believes that as long as James hones his skills, he has hope of challenging Jordan's throne.

It's just that at this stage, James' biggest opponent is Liu He, who is in the same class.

……

That night, the league announced that it would fix the previous mistake and change Hill's All-Star voting position to guard.

So, the current Eastern Conference forward position:
Liu He was first and Carter second.

Eastern guard position:

Hill is first, Iverson is second, and James is third.

James was kicked out of the All-Star starting lineup...

Subsequently, the Knicks ushered in a relatively easy schedule, recording a record of 6 wins and 2 losses.

Until January 1, the Knicks met the Cavaliers again.

Before the game, news came out from the Cavaliers that James would not attend the game due to injury.

This made more fans start to question: Wasn't James afraid of being beaten by Liu He?
On January 1, the Knicks fought back-to-back and lost the second collision with the Pistons.

On the 31st, the Knicks bloodbathed the Clippers in Los Angeles...

With that, January is over.

一月份，刘河场均砍下31.3分7.6篮板3.9助攻2.2抢断1盖帽，带队打出11胜4负的战绩。

Then, Liu He and Kobe teamed up to win the Player of the Month for the third time.

Time to enter February.

In February, the Knicks faced a difficult schedule. Half of their opponents were strong teams such as the Heat, Pistons, and Suns.

9场比赛，尼克斯队5胜4负，总战绩来到了38胜15负。

It is worth mentioning that Chandler has played very well in recent times and has gradually erased his reputation as the second best player in the league.

At this point, the 05 Denver All-Star Weekend has arrived.

The lineups of the East and West star teams have also been released one after another.

Western Stars:
Head Coach:
Gregg Popovich (Spurs).

Starting:

Yao Ming (Rockets), Duncan (Spurs), Garnett (Timberwolves), Kobe (Lakers), Tracy McGrady (Rockets).

Substitute:

Marbury (Lakers), Nowitzki (Mavericks), Nash (Suns), Stoudemire (Suns), Ginobili (Spurs), Ray Allen (SuperSonics) , Anthony (Nuggets).

Eastern Stars:
Head Coach:
Stan Van Gundy (Heat).

Starting:

O'Neal (Heat), Liu He (Knicks), Carter (Nets), Hill (Knicks), Iverson (76ers).

Substitute:

Wade (Heat), Pierce (Celtics), Ben (Pistons), O'Neal (Pacers), Big Z (Cavaliers), James (Cavaliers), Arenas (Wizards) ).

In the 03 class, Liu He, Anthony, Wade, and James were selected as All-Stars.

In the 96 class, Kobe, Nash, Ray Allen, Marbury, Iverson, O'Neal, Big Ben, Big Z... a total of 8 people were selected as All-Stars.

The class of 96 plus the class of 03 account for half of the All-Stars.

Worthy of being two generations of rookies known as gold and platinum.

And Liu He has also reached the busiest time of the year.

There is no way, there are too many endorsements behind Liu He.

Nike, Ferrari, Coca-Cola, Pacific, White Elephant, Longines...

This is what a man who relies on both the Chinese market and the New York market must bear.

In fact, not only Liu He, but all Liu He's teammates, even Varejao, Big Dog, and Hardaway at the bottom of the Knicks have signed many endorsement contracts in China and the United States, earning a lot of money. .

Playing in New York, as long as you have a little success, why do you need to live on salary?What's more, they also have a Chinese teammate, Liu He.

Seriously, everyone on the Knicks makes more from endorsements than from salary.

Thomas, for example, has an annual salary of $588 million this year.

In the past three months, Thomas has earned close to $300 million from various endorsements.

If converted into one year, it is indeed much higher than the annual salary, more than double.

As you can imagine, Thomas' contract expires in three years.

Other teams offered Thomas a big contract with an annual salary of tens of millions. The Knicks only offered 300 million, but Thomas would definitely choose 300 million.

In New York, when playing next to Liu He, do you still need to consider your annual salary?

joke!

Even if he retires, he can still rely on his status as Liu He's teammate to go to China and earn some pocket money.

Unless Thomas doesn't care about money and just wants team status and playing time.

But it is impossible for ordinary role players to think so.For ordinary players, income is the most important consideration.

In addition to these teammates, the Kardashian sisters also enjoyed the benefits of following Liu He during this period.

Not only did they feel physical pleasure, but they also met Spike Lee through Liu He and made great progress in their careers through Lee's network.

During the All-Star period, they put aside all activities and focused on being with Liu He.

There was no way, there were too many wild bees, waves and butterflies surrounding Liu He, all staring at Liu He's piece of gold and jade. They would be out of the game accidentally.

2 month 18 day.

The All-Star Rookie Challenge begins.

This time, the second-year team composed of players from the 03 class did not fight among themselves like last year and fight to the death.

Everyone is cooperating with Anthony to help the host win the MVP.

After all, the status is different.

Last year, everyone was a rookie and had no honors, so we had to compete for the MVP of the Rookie Challenge.

Now, Liu He, Wade, Anthony, and James have all been selected as All-Stars. Who cares about a small rookie MVP?

Sophomore team lineup:

Starting:

Bosh, Liu He, Anthony, Wade, James.

Substitute:

Hinrich, Josh Howard, Korver, Haslem.

First grade team lineup:
Starting:

Howard, Okafor, Iguodala, Tony Allen, Harris.

Substitute:

Luol Deng, Jefferson, Josh Smith, Ben Gordon.

Historically, Okafor missed this All-Star due to injury.However, in this time and space, he didn't have any injuries at all. It should be that the experiences taught by Liu He gave him a little help.

Game start.

Howard jumped high and turned the basketball back to the first grade team.

Devin Harris advanced quickly and attempted a sneak attack.

"Pluto" Harris crossed the NBA court in just 3.9 seconds, a record recognized by Guinness World Records.

Fortunately, there is also "Flash" Wade here in the second grade, using his stronger body to lock Harris.

Harris could only slow down and advance steadily to the frontcourt.

Inside, Howard has already blocked Bosh and reaches for the ball.

Harris passed the ball without hesitation.

Howard was extremely excited after catching the ball.

Liu He, didn’t you say I can’t do it?Is it true that Okafor is the No. 04 player in the 1 class?

Let me show you, what kind of person is called the number one pick?What kind of horse riding is called top talent?

Looking at Liu He provocatively, Howard then slammed into Bosh and hit hard with the ball.

Don't look at Howard's losses against Yao Ming and O'Neal. It's because the tonnage and bottom plate are too different.

As for Bosh, a thin, long-necked dragon is really not enough to look at.

Moreover, Bosh was originally the fourth position, so he would suffer even more if he replaced the fifth position. He could not withstand Howard's impact at all.

In this way, Bosh was swayed left and right by Howard and was in a state of disarray.

Howard approached the basket, slammed Bosh away, turned around and shot.

But at this moment, a figure fell from the sky and slapped Howard's shot away.

Snapped!
It's Liu He!
At the beginning of the game, Howard rewarded Howard with a big pass, which caused the fans at the scene to scream.

Jin and Khloe stood up directly, blew kisses to Liu He without any shyness, and declared their sovereignty to the crazy bees and butterflies on the sidelines.

James picked up the basketball, advanced quickly, and passed to Anthony from the frontcourt. Anthony dunked easily.

On the sidelines, Anthony's girlfriend Lala and Denver fans kept shouting excitedly.

2: 0.

First-year team offense.

Howard continued to ask for the ball.

This time, Liu He directly let Okafor go, rushed over, and cooperated with Bosh to double-team Howard.

If you have the ability, pass it on to Okafor.

Of course Howard will not pass it to Okafor, even if he dies.

He tried to push away Liu He and strike forcefully.

Snapped!
Bosh jumped up high and gave Howard a free pass.

"After all, I am also the fourth pick in the 03 class. Do you really think I don't exist?"

Northern dragons also have fire energy.

The sophomore team had another fast break.

Wade helped Anthony score again.

4: 0.

Anwei high-fived.

Bosh also found Liu He: "Thanks, man!"

Liu He said nonchalantly: "You are my teammate, as you should be."

First-year team offense.

Harris advanced into the frontcourt and never looked at Howard again.

The idiot who got slapped twice in a row...

Howard was furious when he was ignored.

But Harris ignored him and broke through on his own, reaching the penalty area for a layup.

Swish!
4: 2.

Howard felt even more aggrieved: No!As soon as I get the ball, you double-team me.Harris breaks through, why do you just watch him layup?
This is for!

Howard was furious.

Liu He: It’s just for you, what’s wrong?If you don’t accept it, fuck me!
Howard: ...

In the eyes of fans, this is... this Howard is so good, he gets blocked as soon as he takes a shot.

This Harris is so strong and so fast that the sophomore team can't guard him at all.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

With comparison, you will know who is better.

Dirty Howard!

back.

Anthony caught the ball and faced Iguodala as a three-threat.

They are all false three and true two.

James can only break through and pass, and Anthony can only break through and shoot. Each of them has unlocked a skill button.

James is too team-oriented, and Anthony is more toxic than No. 8 Kobe.

However, Anthony felt good tonight and scored on his first shot.

Swish!
6: 2.

First-year team offense.

Harris advanced to the frontcourt again and looked at his teammates.

Tony Allen can't attack, he can only defend.

Iguodala had no desire to attack, so he lay flat.

As for Howard...just pass.

Harris found Okafor and passed the ball over.

Okafor faced Liu He and made a skillful turnaround jumper.

Swish!
6: 4.

When the fans took a look, it turned out that it was not only Harris who was good in the first-year team, but only Howard.

Okafor's low post offense looks very good.

Howard was furious.

Liu He didn't defend the ball seriously at all, he just showed off.

Howard confirmed that Liu He was targeting him.

Defending against Okafor is like running out of gas.Defending yourself is like losing your life.

Deceiving too much!

The whole world is bullying me. None of Liu He, Wade, and Anthony are good. They all bullied me in previous games.

hateful!

And that James, I defeated him in the game, and his fans actually called me a parallel importer, which is the most hateful thing.

Bad people, all bad people!
I want to call back!Fuck you all!
Sophomore team offense.

Anthony did not attack by himself this time.

Brothers give him face, but he also has to know how to deal with the world and not be too greedy.

So he passed the ball to James.James was not polite and rushed into the penalty area, preparing to perform a wave of explosive tomahawk dunks.

But at this moment, Howard jumped up high, like a god descending from the earth, and threw a huge hand over his head, knocking James over.

What the hell!

All Denver fans in the audience exclaimed.

This Howard is so fierce!

Previously, they had been blocked by Liu He and Bosh. They thought Howard was not good, but they didn't expect him to be so good.

The first-year team took advantage of the fast break, and Harris pierced the darkness like light. In the blink of an eye, he reached the frontcourt and scored a layup.

Swish!
6: 6.

Fast, too fast!
At this time, James had just gotten up from the floor and was still a little confused.

Twinkle twinkle little stars, how I wonder where you are.

No, everyone is letting loose and playing exhibition games. Why are you, Howard, targeting me?

What James didn't know was that this was exactly the trouble his extreme fans and team caused him. It made Howard hate James so much that he would beat him up without mercy.

And after this round, sparks were created between the two sides, and the intensity of the game instantly increased by several levels.

Exhibition match?screw you!
Sophomore team offense.

It was Wade's turn to attack. With a strange step, Wade broke into the first-year team's penalty area.

However, Howard and Okafor, who were guarding the penalty area, opened their arms. The two defensive giants were like a dragnet, protecting the basket airtight.

Wade couldn't find any space to take action and could only pass the ball out again.

Liu He in the bottom corner caught the ball, and before Okafor could save it, he shook his little hand.

Swish!
9: 6.

First-year team offense.

Harris broke through the penalty area and missed the layup under Wade's pursuit and Bosh's interception.

Bang!

Liu He protected the rebound.

The second-grade team played a fast break, and Liu He assisted Anthony to score again.

11: 6.

The first-year team continued to attack.

Harris forced a shot but still missed.

Wade's pressure on him was too strong.

Both are fast, but the second-year Wade is obviously much stronger than Harris, and the physical confrontation between the two is several steps behind.

Bang!

But this time, Howard grabbed an offensive rebound and scored a putback dunk.

boom!
11: 8.

The first-year team's inside line is indeed very strong. Howard and Okafor are both very powerful big men.

On the opposite side, Bosh and Liuhe seemed to be making up the numbers.

Wade continued to break through to attract double-teams, and then took the initiative to find Liu He on the outside.

Liu He hit his second three-pointer at almost the same position.

Swish!
14: 8.

Wade was so comfortable.

I imagine that if the Heat had a shooter like Liu He, I wouldn't feel too comfortable.

One pass, assist +1.

One pass, assist +1.

+1.

+1.

If that's the case, he dares to challenge Stockton's record.

On the first-year team's offense, Tony Allen received a pass from Okafor and made a furious hit.As expected of a man who can do nothing but defend.

However, Howard grabbed the second offensive rebound in succession and scored with a dunk.

boom!
14: 10.

Although Howard is not strong enough at this moment, the second-year team really can't find anyone who can limit him one-on-one, and his size doesn't match up.

Sophomore team offense.

Okafor was hit by two consecutive three-pointers by Liu He. He did not dare to stay under the basket and ran out with Liu He.

Now, the restricted area is much wider.

The guardians on the left and right turned into Optimus Prime, and the pressure on Wade was suddenly reduced.

Wade had an idea, entered the penalty area, deliberately rubbed against Howard, causing Howard's foul, and then made 2 of 2 free throws.

16: 10.

In the following period, Wade used his breakthrough ability to either score by himself or help his teammates score, and he played well.

The second grade team also gradually widened the point difference.

Of course, everyone did not forget to help Anthony improve his statistics and win MVP.

In the second quarter, James watched Wade's outstanding performance and finally couldn't help it anymore and started to attack for the ball.

Relying on the shooting of Bosh and Liu He, James didn't have to be too comfortable to break through. Every time he entered the penalty area, he was in no one's land and scored easily.

If the opponent dares to set up defense at the basket, James will pass the ball out and continue to provide assists.

Especially Liu He, as long as the ball is handed over to him, James will get an assist steadily.

This made James feel very complicated.

After the last show incident, James hated Liu He so much that he wanted to kill Liu He.

But tonight, he couldn't help but have the same thought as Wade. If I had a teammate like Liu He, how many points could I score in a game?How many assists are there?
Moreover, Liu He can also defend the opponent's arrow characters and do dirty and tiring work.

You only need to be responsible for brushing the data.

Liu He is simply the most suitable teammate for him, the perfect teammate of his dreams.

Unknowingly, James' hostility toward Liu He weakened a lot.

In the end, relying on their absolute strength, the second-grade team defeated the first-grade team 122:109.

Anthony scored a game-high 34 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, and was awarded the Rookie Challenge MVP.

刘河偷奸耍滑，轻松拿到18分6篮板2助攻2抢断3盖帽。

February 2th is the All-Star Carnival.

Liu He still signed up for the three-point shooting contest this year.

In the preliminaries, he missed a flower ball and scored 28 points.

In the finals, Liu He missed another ordinary ball and scored 29 points.

This result made Liu He's opponents deeply disappointed.

What's even more uncomfortable is that when Liu He received the trophy, he said: "In recent days, there have been too many things off the field. I failed to maintain normal training, so my performance today was not very good. Next year, I will work harder!"

Opponents: ...

Actually, you really don’t need to try too hard.

That being the case, they decided not to participate in the three-point contest next year.

In addition, Josh Smith of the Hawks won the dunk title.

Suns core Steve Nash won the Skills Challenge.

……

2 month 20 day.

The All-Star game that fans are most looking forward to is finally here.

And Liu He's system also responded.

Level [-], burnt out, beautiful, champion's heart, and true to one's words.

The next most promising badge to upgrade is The Leaking Cauldron.

There are still 3 injuries left to improve.

As we all know, in the long NBA season, after the All-Star Weekend, that is, in the middle and late stages of the season, there is a high incidence of injuries, because players will be more or less tired at this time.

Once the body is tired, it is more susceptible to injury.

In addition, the Knicks are originally a concentration camp for the old, weak, sick and disabled. It is unrealistic to completely avoid injuries.

Many rookies, many veterans, many glass men...this is the label of the Knicks.

Young players: Varejao, Ariza, Liu He, Pachulia...

Veterans: Malone, Payton, Hardaway, Big Dog, Hill...

Glass Man: Hill, Hardaway, Chandler, Big Dog...

In addition, Crawford, Ariza, and Chandler (the boxing champions in previous years couldn't afford to lose weight) look thin...

So even if Liu He would rather the team not have injuries, the badge cannot be upgraded.You also have to prepare in advance.

Injuries are really part of the game.

This is also the reason why Liu He improved his endurance.

Once the team suffers from serious injuries, Liu He will need to take on more offensive and defensive tasks.

That night.

In the locker room of the Eastern Conference Stars, 12 All-Stars gathered together.

O'Neal, Liu He, Carter, Hill, Iverson.

O'Neal Jr., Wade, James, Pierce, Big Ben, Big Z, Arenas.

Among them, O'Neal and Iverson are the two most senior, most powerful, and highest status.

So everyone is planning... to steal Anthony's MVP, whether to give it to O'Neal or Iverson.

O'Neal said: I just won the All-Star MVP last year, forget it this year, I can't eat alone!
Iverson also shook his head. The 76ers had a poor record recently and he was not in the mood to show off his talents during the All-Star Weekend.

Seeing that the two most qualified people were not interested, O'Neal looked at Liu He: This guy is this year's top vote-getter and the fans' favorite star.Fans would definitely like to see him win the MVP.

Seeing O'Neal neglecting him and supporting his ex, it was impossible for Wade not to feel sad.

yes!My popularity is not as good as Liu He's, my statistics are not as good as Liu He's, and my status is not as good as Liu He's... Then can't you, O'Neal, support me?

I don’t really want to be MVP, I’m just angry that O’Neal only has his ex in his heart.

But at this moment, Liu He shook his head:

"I have been fighting all night last night. If I continue to fight tonight, I will die suddenly!"

The whole room burst into laughter.

We fought all night last night, what else could it be?

Everyone knows it.

I'm really envious!
If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have gotten married so early, and I could have let loose and played like Liu He.

In fact, Liu He is still very restrained.

The reason for bringing up "combat matters" is just an excuse.

In fact, Liu He just doesn't like the All-Star MVP.

This season, his only goal is the regular season MVP.

In front of the regular season MVP, the All-Star MVP is nothing.

Taking into account the wave of injuries that the Knicks may encounter after the All-Star Weekend, Liu He must make all preparations to prevent the Knicks' record from falling too much. At least to maintain the top three records in the Eastern Conference, they can hope to win in this era. Get MVP.

So from the beginning of the Rookie Challenge, to the three-point shooting competition, and then to tonight's main game, Liu He has been paddling... just to ensure that he has the most sufficient physical fitness to face the following games.

Seeing that Liu He was not interested either, O'Neal focused on Hill again.

Hill had been lying down for so long, and everyone thought he was useless. He finally made a comeback and became an All-Star in one fell swoop. If he could still win the All-Star MVP...

This will be a legendary story!

Liu He had no objection to this.

This season, the Knicks have been strictly controlling Hill's playing time in accordance with the team doctor's instructions and not letting him play back-to-back games, so Hill's physical condition is quite good.

There is no problem in competing for the All-Star MVP.

"Grant, it's you!"

O'Neill said.

"I'm with you too, Grant."

Iverson immediately echoed.

"I definitely support it!"

Liu He said.

Carter also nodded repeatedly.

The four major starters all agreed, and the rest naturally had no right to object.

In fact, the rest of the crowd responded.

Hill is indeed a good person, a rare good kid in the NBA. He has no scandals or bad habits, and has a good relationship with the players.

It makes sense to have everyone’s support.

Soon, it was time to show up.

Liu He, who was the top vote-getter, encountered the most terrifying boos from Denver fans when he came on the stage.

After all, Liu He is Denver's star Anthony's biggest enemy. He fought to the death with Anthony last year and even stole Anthony's Rookie of the Year trophy. It was Liu He's team that eliminated the Nuggets in the playoffs.

In this regard, the smile on Liu He's face did not even change a little bit.

How could the majestic King of New York argue with a group of ignorant fans from the countryside?
Rookie of the Year?

playoffs?
That's something that only small rural teams like the Nuggets value.

Soon, the game begins.

The starting lineups for both teams are:

east:

O'Neal, Liu He, Carter, Hill, Iverson.

west:

Yao Ming, Duncan, Garnett, Kobe, McGrady.

At the beginning of the game, O'Neal took advantage and moved the ball to the Eastern Stars.

Liu He happened to pick up the basketball and took two steps forward. As soon as he entered the logo area, he stopped, aimed at the basket, and then shot.

The basketball flew across the sky, and finally fell steadily into the net bag.

Swish!
3: 0.

What the hell!

The Pepsi Center exploded instantly.

In the TNT commentary box, Barkley immediately said: "This ball should give 10 points to the Eastern Stars!"

Really too far.

There is a saying in the league that Liu He's shooting range is within half the court.

Good guy, now the backcourt is too.

Facing the excited Denver fans, Liu He just tilted his head and spread his hands expressionlessly.

Cole interpreted: "Liu He means... routine operations, no need to make a fuss, country boy!"

Of course, Cole didn't dare to say the last sentence in front of a national audience.

The game continues.

The Western Stars attacked, and McGrady entered the penalty area and showed off a wave of dunks.

boom!
3: 2.

Looking back, Iverson advanced to the frontcourt, suddenly accelerated, entered the paint area, and then distributed the ball to Hill.

Hill caught the ball and made a jumper.

Swish!
5: 2.

In the opening stage, the two sides played tepidly.

A few minutes later, the Western Stars replaced Anthony.

Teammates of the Western Conference Stars gave Anthony the ball one after another.

The Eastern Stars also began to focus the ball on Hill.

The two sides finished the first half tepidly, 76:73.

According to the convention of the All-Star Game, the first half is an exhibition game and the second half is a real game.

The Eastern Stars entered the second half with a 3-point lead.

In the second half, both sides intensified their defense and the intensity of the game increased dramatically.

The two sides alternated the lead until the last moment of the game, 132:131, with the Eastern Stars only leading by 1 point.

Anthony hit an accurate buzzer beater and took the lead.

And only 7.5 seconds are left for the opponent.

132: 133.

In the last round, Liu He used his speed advantage to get rid of Duncan, received a pass from Iverson at the free throw line, and shot a jumper.

Swish!
134: 133.

Beep!
The moment the basketball hit the net, the full-time whistle also sounded.

Liu He defeated the Western Conference Stars.

In the end, Hill, the top scorer of the Eastern Stars, was awarded the MVP with 29 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists.

When Hill took the MVP trophy from Stern, he always had tears in his eyes, with a gentlemanly smile. He finally couldn't control his emotions and cried.

No one can understand his pain.

Who would have thought that Hill, who had been lying down for four whole years, could overcome injuries and dance on the All-Star stage.

This legendary story of overcoming difficulties, overcoming injuries, getting back on his feet, and winning the MVP is full of positive energy.

NBA director David Stern is also very satisfied.

His dream NBA should be like this, where everyone is a gentleman like Hill, instead of smoking marijuana, drag racing, gambling, drunk driving, illegal gun possession...

Such an NBA will be easier to promote and become popular around the world.

Liu He stepped forward, hugged the veteran, patted his back, and said softly: "Grant is just an All-Star MVP. There are more wonderful things in the world. When that day comes, you won't cry anymore. Not too late."

Something more wonderful?

Hill's eyes gradually became firm!

On this day, Liu He made a promise to this ill-fated veteran that he must let him touch the most wonderful thing.

It was also on this day that Grant Hill truly returned to Liu He and supported Liu He wholeheartedly.

If he can ascend to the highest stage and become a world champion in the last period of his career, then Hill feels that although his career has been tortuous, he will have no regrets after all.

This always gentle court elite has also become very motivated.
