The Godfather of Basketball

Chapter 447 2012 NBA All-Star Game (2/4!)

Tang Tian came out to award the honor.

The Syrian war was started by the United States, but the US government has never had the final say of one or a few people.

In other words, the wave of people who started the war might be some congressmen and the arms dealers behind them, while those who awarded Tang Tian were other congressmen and businessmen who did not want war.

But this medal, for Tang Tian, ​​has only advantages and no disadvantages.

At least for his foundation, more funds can be raised to help more children in need.

This is actually enough.

The soldier pinned the medal to Tang Tian's chest, and the spotlights of the reporters below were already flashing.

An NBA head coach is awarded an honor, which has never happened in the history of the United States, but his significance is definitely not only in the award itself, but will inspire more people to devote themselves to public welfare, especially those in the NBA. superstar.

This is indeed the case. After the report of the White House awards came out, many superstars, including Kobe, Duncan, James, and Paul, all expressed their support for Tang Tian's behavior and expressed their willingness to donate to Tang Tian's foundation. .

The trip to the White House came to an end. After Tang Tian returned to Cleveland, he also turned around and continued to work on coaching.

For the Cavaliers, the most important thing for a new aid to join is naturally running-in.

And the running-in of the Cavaliers is surprisingly good.

In the following nearly a month of competition, they won two waves of 4 consecutive victories, and before the All-Star Game, they improved their record to 43 wins and 9 losses, temporarily behind the Bulls with 44 wins and 8 losses, ranking first. Second in the East.

Carter, the most important of the three new aids, has gradually adapted to the status of a substitute, averaging 25.5 minutes per game, scoring 15.3 points and 3.6 rebounds, shooting 48% from the field and 39% from three-pointers.

In the 14th year of his career, "UFO" has the opportunity to compete for the best sixth man in the league for the first time!

The time came to February 26 in a blink of an eye, and the annual All-Star Game officially came.

It was confirmed as early as last year that the All-Star Game will be held in Orlando this year.

Prior to this, the starting lineups of the East and West have been voted out.

In the West, the starting backcourt is the Thunder's Russell Westbrook and the Lakers' Kobe Bryant, the forwards are the Thunder's Kevin Durant and the Suns' LeBron James, and the center is the Lakers Team's DeAndre Bynum.

In terms of the bench lineup, Nash, Parker, Love, Aldridge, Nowitzki, etc. were also selected.

In the East, Derrick Rose once again beat Paul to be elected as the starter with his outstanding performance, and his partner guard is Dwyane Wade; as for the forwards, Carmelo Anthony and Paul Pierce were elected as the starter; In Orlando, Dwight Howard, who played at home, overwhelmed Yao Ming and was elected as the starting center in the Eastern Conference.

Substitutes: Paul, Yao Ming, Deron Williams, Iguodala, Bosh, etc. have been selected one after another.

It is worth mentioning that because of James' Westward Journey, sophomore Paul George was also successfully selected as a substitute.

In addition to Paul and Yao Ming who were selected for the main game this year, the Cavaliers, Jeremy Lin, Whiteside and Butler will also participate in the rookie game.

Although he failed to become the head coach of the All-Star Game for the first time because of his record, Tang Tian still went to Orlando with Swift.

On the one hand, Orlando is close to Cleveland, on the other hand, he really has nothing to do this weekend.

Howard's transfer turmoil this season has been raging, but in the end he announced the implementation of the player option to stay in Orlando, which made the media question the player's loyalty.

However, Howard was very open, and he still appeared on the sidelines as usual during the All-Star weekend, still playing his funny role.

On the first day of the All-Star Game, the rookie game is still the highlight.

The successive victories of the second-year team made the league realize that this event will completely lose attention if it continues like this, so a lot of reforms have been carried out this year.

The game is no longer a competition between the first-year team and the second-year team, but is interspersed with a selection game.

Those who have the right to choose, that is, the "general managers" of the two teams are "Big Mouth" Barkley and "Big Shark" O'Neal.

Such a novel method also attracted much attention to the game.

Jeremy Lin and Butler were selected to the Barkley team, while Whiteside was selected to the O'Neal team.

The core of the Barkley team is Griffin, Tristan Thompson and Greg Monroe.

The core of the O'Neal team is Irving, Cousins ​​and Paul George.

Soon after the start of the game, O'Neal's team clearly had the advantage, and Irving's offense was unstoppable.

The Barkley team saw that the situation was wrong, and sent the Cavaliers' Jeremy Lin and Butler double stars.

Butler restricted Irving's performance, while Jeremy Lin played a wonderful continuous attack on the offensive end.

In the end, O'Neal's team was even better. Cousins ​​was unstoppable in the paint, scored 30 points and 11 rebounds, and was elected as the MVP of the rookie game.

It is worth mentioning that Jeremy Lin performed well on the offensive end. He scored 16 points and 3 assists as a substitute, which was quite impressive.

The highlight of the first day is the rookie game, and the second day is the slam dunk contest and the three-point contest.

Compared with the past, the two events this year do not have much to watch. Instead, they have been playing a pre-heating skill challenge, which has attracted the attention of many people.

Stephen Curry, Deron Williams, Russell Westbrook, John Wall, Rajon Rondo, Tony Parker, Kyrie Irving.

This list of entries alone is enough to make the stars shine.

This is almost all the All-Stars and potential new star guards of each team gathered together.

The process of the competition was fierce and unusual, and the final result was also surprising.

Rondo, Parker and Deron reached the final.

But in the finals, the performance of the three was worse than the other. In the end, Parker won the championship with a time of 32.8 seconds.

This result is 4.6 seconds longer than Curry last year!

Such a result is surprising.

However, this also made the atmosphere of the scene very happy.

The All-Star Game itself is as fun as it is.

After the skills competition, the three-point shooting competition will start immediately.

Before the game started, Tang Tian stood up and greeted Ryan Anderson in the front row. The latter was traded to the Magic, but he still appeared in the three-point contest as the defending champion.

At this moment, an intriguing scene happened in the venue.

James and Wade were sitting on the sidelines, Tang Tian got up to greet Anderson, and walked directly over their heads.

James noticed someone, looked up to see Tang Tian, ​​and then turned his head back immediately.

This scene was captured and captured on the spot.

The former master and apprentice, after experiencing an unpleasant transfer turmoil, are now strangers.
