Chapter 528: "Praise" and "Praise"

【NBA: No. 1 Forward】【】

In the second half, Lian Dao played again and made three difficult three-pointers one after another, one of which was more like a sideshow.

It feels like Yao Ming is cooperating with Lian Dao.

Lian Dao dribbled the ball at the center line and stopped, then hooked Yao Ming.

Amidst the booing of the fans, Yao Ming greeted him with a wry smile.

Dayao defended Lian Dao from the center line, and Lian Dao held the ball from the center line to hit Yao Ming with his back. All the fans thought that Lian Dao was going to hit Yao Ming from the center line.

Unexpectedly, Lian Dao turned his back on Yao Ming, turned his back to the basket, and threw the ball backwards from the center line to the basket without looking at the basket.

The audience exclaimed, and everyone stared at Lian Dao's extremely difficult ultra-long-range three-pointer.

"brush!"

Three-pointer with the logo on his back!

The fans in the audience once again had a collective climax, and the cheers were deafening.

Although Lian Dao did not participate in the dunk contest and the three-point contest, his performance in the main game definitely feasted the eyes of all fans.

However, the East eventually lost the game.

With 1 minute and 41 seconds left in the game, Williams made a layup after a steal, and the East was only 1 point behind 147-148.

The East got a good chance to overtake, but Wade was unstable in receiving the ball in the fast break and went out of bounds at the basket.

After the West missed a shot, he grabbed offensive rebounds twice, and after Griffin made a dunk, with 37 seconds left in the game, the West led 150-147 by 3 points.

James wanted to return a three-pointer, but he came out of the basket. Wade grabbed the rebound and made two free throws after causing a foul.

The gap between the two sides is still 1 point.

In the West's next attack, Kobe was fouled, but he made only one of two free throws, leaving the West with 16.3 seconds.

When Lian Dao and Williams ran out of space at the same time, James did not find Lian Dao in his first choice, but passed the ball to Williams, but he missed a three-pointer.

After grabbing the rebound, James didn't make a shot himself, and when Lian Dao ran out of space again, instead of giving the ball to Lian Dao, he passed the ball inside, which resulted in a mistake and was intercepted by Griffin.

In the end, he fouled Griffin in time, and Griffin also missed a free throw.

Still, the East still has 1.1 seconds to go.

As long as it is executed properly, the East still has a chance to tie the score and drag the game into overtime.

Everyone knows the selfishness of James' two passes before, but they are tacit to each other.

However, in the last attack, everyone in the east did not want to waste their efforts, so Lian Dao was selected by everyone as the executor of the last attack.

Although Coach Spoelstra favors his own star, he can't help himself in the face of everyone's opinions at this time.

However, the head coach of the West, Stoke Brooks, has long had a strategy for it.

At the last moment, all the players in the Western Conference defended with Lian Dao as the core. As a result, he had no way to catch the ball. In the end, he could only hand the ball to Wade, and Wade missed a three-pointer in the end, and the Eastern Conference fell short.

The West narrowly beat the East 152:149.

Lakers star Kobe Bryant set an all-star total scoring record, scoring 27 points in the game, with a total score of 271 points in the All-Star game, surpassing Chicago Braised Egg-Michael Jordan, becoming the highest scoring All-Star players.

Kevin Durant scored 36 points and 7 rebounds, Russell Westbrook 21 points, Carmelo Anthony 19 points, Blake Griffin 15 points and 8 rebounds, the new "three-pointer" "Kevin Love made 2 three-pointers and scored 17 points.

In the East, Lian Dao had 24 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, LeBron James had 36 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, Dwyane Wade had a triple-double, contributing 24 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds, Derrick Rose had 14 points . Deron Williams, who came off the bench, made 4 of 6 three-pointers and scored 20 points.

If the East wins, James and Wade are most likely to win the final mvp. According to Stern's character, they may still win together.

The double mvp of the same team is not only a good story, but also a good talk of the league.

Unfortunately, Stern's wish was not fulfilled. In the end, Durant won the All-Star Game mvp with 36 points and 7 rebounds.

However, Lian Dao didn't care about winning or losing the All-Star Game or mvp.

After all, what is the All-Star Game mvp!

As the mvp winner of last season's regular season and finals, Lian Dao's goal this year is to defend the regular season mvp!

The All-Star MVP is an award with low gold content, and Durant won it when he got it.

When interviewed after the All-Star Game, Lian Dao was still the most popular player among reporters, and even Durant, the All-Star mvp, could not match.

Lian Dao was all smiles when he was interviewed. He was not angry because he lost the game, nor was he angry because James did not choose to pass the ball to himself in the end.

Lian Dao and James were both in the Eastern Conference, and there was some grievance between the two teams.

Coupled with the fact that the same player belongs to the third position, the battle for the league's strongest small forward has been the hottest in the past two years. Although the players on both sides are not saying that the situation is fierce, there is still friction between the two players.

Therefore, Lian Dao can also understand James' final passing choice. In the interview, Lian Dao did not criticize James' choice.

Moreover, this time Lian Dao participated in the All-Star Game with an attitude of entertainment.

So in the interview, Lian Dao lavishly praised James and his teammates for their outstanding performance, being very happy with them and so on...

This also made Lian Dao feel good in the hearts of many Eastern star players, and even reversed Lian Dao's narrow-minded image for a while, except of course James.

Sometimes "praise" is more likely to produce results than "depreciation", so everything needs to be changed.



The All-Star game ended on February 27, and Lian Dao, Holiday, Stoudemire and others returned to New York the next day. They will have a home game on February 29 to challenge the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Knicks played against the Cavaliers at home on February 29. Kyrie Irving, who had just won the mvp of the Rookie Challenge, experienced a big defeat after the All-Star Game.

Facing the Cavaliers, the Knicks at home did not feel too much challenge. They easily defeated the Cavaliers and won the first game after the All-Star break.

Irving's data so far is still very good, averaging 18.5 points, 3.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game.

Of course, this data is incomparable with Lian Dao's rookie season.

Let alone one thing, Lian Dao led the team to the Eastern Conference Finals in his rookie season.

In this regard, it is unlikely that future rookies will break this record.

Lian Dao is tied with Tim Duncan and Larry Bird as the three strongest rookies in history.

This status is even worse than James, let alone Irving now.

A rookie's good personal data is only part of it. How much the team's record can be improved under this premise is the ultimate manifestation of his ability.

Irving obviously only has the ability to make his statistics look better but he is unable to help the team improve too much.

Although it can't be compared with Lian Dao, Irving's data is already very good compared to the rookies of the same class.

Not surprisingly, at the end of the regular season, Kyrie Irving will be the best rookie of the season.

With the victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Knicks' game in February is all over.

At the same time, with an average of 28.2 points, 7 rebounds and 11.3 assists per game, Lian Dao continued to be the best player of the month in the Eastern Conference.

The best player of the month in the Western Conference is the new All-Star MVP Kevin Durant, who averaged 29.1 points, 8.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game in February.

And in February, the Thunder played a total of 15 games and achieved a record of 12 wins and 3 losses.

In February, the Knicks also played 15 games and achieved a record of 13 wins and 2 losses.

So far, the Knicks' record is 31 wins and 5 losses.

One win beyond the Heat, the record ranks first in the league.
