Chapter 105 Deity Confirmation
In the first quarter, Xie Hou played for 7 minutes.
When he was on the court, the game was very exciting, both sides had come and go, and the Western Conference star had a great defensive intensity in order to limit his performance.
However, this level of defense is not enough to make him submit.
It won't work any further. No matter how serious it is, this is just an All-Star game. No one can defend himself except OK.
It was under the siege of O's that Xie Hou scored 10 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in seven minutes. The Eastern Conference star dug too much. Although his performance was excellent, it was not enough to change the situation.
When Xie Hou left the court, the Eastern Conference star was 8 points behind.
Kidd, Artest and others who replaced the field are not attacking players. Apart from Iverson, none of them can grab points. If you want to win, the ball has to be concentrated in Iverson's hands.
Like everyone else, Iverson does not pay attention to the victory or defeat of this game, and both the winner and loser are acceptable.
Xie Hou had to sit off the court and let Artest increase his strength in defense. If the beast was slacking off at all, he would mumble loudly, making him look like the second coach on the court.
"Arthur, do you want to win this game so much?"
Xie Hou's attention to the game is surprising, and few people really value the victory or defeat of the All-Star Game.
After Xie Hou suffered such unfair treatment, McGrady was able to ask this sentence (there is indeed no real empathy in the world).
Xie Hou replied to McGrady's words in a head-on manner: "I must win."
"Then I'll help you!" McGrady said proudly.
Xie Hou didn't know why he did that, but with McGrady's help, his confidence in winning the game would definitely increase a lot.
The difference between the East and the West is that the absolute combat power and talent are very different.
The two outside lines, Xie Hou and McGrady, are indeed comparable to the West, but the inside lines in the West include O'Neal, Yao Zhu, Duncan, Garnett, and Nowitzki; the outside stars are a little dimmed, and Kobe's personal topic can also reach the sum of others in the East except Xie Hou, McGrady, and Iverson.
Not to mention excellent shooters like Ray Allen and Peja.
It is not easy to catch up points.
In the second quarter, the Eastern Conference Stars had to chase the score difference of 5 points, but Pejare Allen from the outside hit three-pointers one after another.
The score difference was widened to 11 points, and Carter failed to play the hero, missed the shot, and was hit and hit again.
44 to 31
How to deal with the 13-point gap?
Xie Hou doesn't want to face a 20-point fall when he plays, so he hopes the team will replace him now.
In the All-Star Game, all stars are required to play in the game. Even a super popular star like Xie Hou will only have 30 minutes of playing time at most.
What made him feel unbalanced was that Kobe started like him and was replaced almost at the same time, but he was sent to the beginning of the second quarter.
Kobe naturally had to take advantage of more playing time to score points. Now he has 13 points in hand, leading Xie Hou by 3 points. If he can maintain until the end of the game, King Arthur will break his promise.
Xie Hou has been patient and waiting for the head coach to call him.
Finally, Kobe scored 15 points, and five minutes later in the second quarter, he heard the call.
"Arthur, I want you to replace Ron, is there any problem?"
"No!"
Xie Hou replaced Artest, and Kidd, Iverson, and Xie Hou partnered on the outside in the east.
This lineup looks amazing, but in fact it also has a life goal, and the three-pointer is a fatal point.
Iverson's three-pointer is easily affected by his opponent due to his height limitation; Kidd will not mention it, the famous shooter who looks at the sky and eats; Xie Hou is just as unstable, but he may be the most stable shooter on the Eastern Conference.
"I heard that Kobe is going to limit you to 15 points?" Iverson asked.
"That's right." Xie Hou nodded.
Iverson immediately sent the ball to him: "Then you have to embarrass him."
Xie Hou was transporting the ball and said, "I also said that I will definitely score more than him today."
Xie Hou's crazy words left Iverson speechless. At Kobe's home court, he said he would get more points than him?
In the frontcourt, Kobe, who had played for 5 minutes longer than Xie Hou, followed the coach's instructions and let Xie Hou make a three-pointer.
When Xie Hou saw the opportunity, he received the ball without hesitation. He jumped to a height of more than 50 cm and made a three-pointer with a straight arm.
Seeing Xie Hou's three-pointer, Kobe felt a little uneasy (he was too calm). If he had no confidence in the three-pointer, Xie Hou should not be so decisive.
Kobe subconsciously blocked Xie Hou's body with his back and prevented him from moving.
As a result, they witnessed Xie Hou hit a three-pointer together.
"You will definitely have more playing time tonight than me, but my score will definitely be the same as you, I promise." Xie Hou said this and ran away.
O'Neal was so angry that he stood up from the bench and shouted: "Bryant, don't let him shoot, he feels warm! Touch your brain!"
O'Neal, who has been selected for the NBA for only three times in the best defensive lineup of the year for 12 years, actually reminded Kobe, who is only 26 years old but has been selected for the best defensive lineup for four consecutive years, to use his brain to defend?
Kobe really doesn't know how he has to use his brain to defend himself from a magician who has good chances.
"I'm competing!" said the magician interestingly, "These two young people will definitely become enemies of each other in the future!"
In terms of defense, Kobe is undoubtedly better than Xie Hou at this stage.
But Xie Hou is good at two kinds of defense.
One is to help defend, his figure is destined to be an ubiquitous assist defender; the other is to rely on his arm span to restrict super scorers who like to combine surprise shots (such as Kobe).
Kobe is definitely a frightening scorer.
His breakthrough is first-class and he can kill teams like the Spurs by shooting, but he also has annoying defenders.
Xie Hou is not slow, has excellent athletic ability, and has a high and long arms. He hates the most.
Now he wants to challenge Xie Hou, and he wants to prove that he has made an irrational jump shot.
"No more running!"
Xie Hou shouted loudly, and his 224-centimeter long arm blocked Kobe's shooting basket.
"Don't run!" Kobe, who was above, chased back angrily, as if he was teased to the point where he was at the most excited stage.
His absolute speed is no slower than Xie Hou. He chased Xie Hou in a ball without a ball, and it is inevitable to catch up with him. However, the gap in body shape makes it difficult for him to limit the latter's counterattack.
Xie Hou grabbed the ball with his right hand, without changing the whole process. The huge stride helped him invade the paint area instantly, and then jumped. Kobe also jumped up. He wanted to stop Xie Hou from taking action, but his arm was hit, but he landed on Xie Hou but did not get the opponent to drop the ball.
"Beep!"
The whistle sounded, Xie Hou's hand trembled and pushed the ball out from afar (his core strength is still weak and he cannot withstand such a fierce foul).
Kobe looked at the ball on his head in surprise. He didn't expect that he would jump higher than Xie Hou, but he could not stop the ball from flying past his eyes.
This is an inch long and powerful battle!
"Bang!"
Hit the board!
"again!"
"He once again scored 21 against Kobe!" Albert roared, "This amazing guy has a breathtaking talent!"
The magician followed his words: "Yes, he is like Johnson, a magician with a stronger desire to attack!"
Chapter completed!
