Chapter 176: The rookie game begins!

On February 13, the NBA All-Star Weekend officially opened.
The fan carnival activities made the majority of basketball fans enjoy themselves. The wheelchair basketball game held on the first day was aimed at improving the social status and physical quality of the disabled.
The whole of New York has become a basketball city this weekend.
...
"Yes, I am very happy to be able to participate in the All-Star game. This is something I really want to do. It is hard to imagine that it will be realized so quickly..."
"The first time? Dude, there is a first time in everything, I'm just a little faster..."
"What kind of pizza do I like? It's nothing special. I like more meaty..."
"Where was the first one to wash in the bath? Oh man, why would you ask such a privacy question? I won't tell you that I was the first to wash my face..."
For players participating in the All-Star Game, there will be a separate interview session.
In a large room, each player has a table, and there will be many reporters around the table asking various questions.
Xu Xuan has a lot of reporters here, and there are a large number of Wu Yang, only James and Kobe, the number is even more than that around the cute Curry.
The first start of the All-Star Weekend is the Masters.
This Xu Xuan paid little attention and did not go to the scene, because after the celebrity game is the rookie challenge.
"Hey, Director Zhang, have you seen Xu Xuan?"
With a reporter card hanging around her neck, Yu Jia asked Zhang Yang, who was very distinctive-looking, to give guidance.
How can this kind of basketball event be missing him?
"Wait, I'm still looking for..." Zhang Fangyi scratched his head, staring wide-eyed, looking for Xu Xuan's figure.
This year's Rookie Challenge is too lively, right?
As the second course of the All-Star Weekend, strictly speaking, it's just a warm-up time. The entire Barclays Center players are already packed, and look at the sidelines, hell! Are these NBA stars too boring in the hotel or?
LeBron James in a baseball cap chatting with "Dragon King" Bosh.
James Harden, dressed in a shit-yellow suit, kept his eyes locked on the beauties of the cheerleaders on the sidelines.
Kobe, in casual clothes, is chatting with Shifo Duncan beside him, and the two seem to be chatting very happily.
Curry was eating popcorn, and while eating, he put a handful into the mouth of his good friend Clay next to him.
Melon big gold chain, black jacket, full of tattoos, looks like a big social brother...
Where is Xu Xuan?
Xu Xuan is warming up!
It's just that there are too many people on the court now, and the staff, reporters, and players are basically full of this small venue.
"Every year at the All-Star Game, there is a sense of anticipation, this year is especially strong!"
After Zhang Yangfang found Xu Xuan, he started to explain with a red face.
Fans who watched the live broadcast far away from the other side of the ocean are also deeply moved.
How many years has it been?
This is the Chinese figure once again on the NBA All-Star stage after Dayao!
Moved!
After the warm-up, head coach Kenny Atkinson called the players around and simply arranged some tactics.
There are no specific tactics for the Rookie Challenge or even the All-Star Game. After all, the All-Star Game is still an entertaining event in the final analysis, and the outcome of the game often does not seem so important.
Not that important?
true! of! !
Xu Xuan is ready to kill him today!
After the tactics are determined, the international team of the Rookie Challenge will start tonight with Xu Xuan, Wiggins, Mirotic, Antetokounmpo, and Gobert.
The US team’s starters are Payton Jr., Oladipo, Pope, Knoll and Zeller.
"Director Zhang, which side do you think has the higher winning rate today?" Yu Jia asked curiously.
"It seems that the world team's lineup is more reasonable, so I am optimistic about the world team!"
Said Zhang Yangliang.
"But today Xu Xuan is the starting point guard, Wiggins played the second position...Tsk, the world team's lineup is really high!"
Shooting guard Wiggins 203, small forward Mirotic 208, power forward Antetokounmpo 211, center Gobert 216...
Ouch!
Just Xu Xuan, a 191 short man...
Nonsence!
You are short!
Your whole family is short!
...
During the jump ball, Cody Zeller looked desperately at the "Eiffel Tower" in front of him. After he took off hard, he did not touch the ball but Gobert's strong and body.
"Pretty!"
Seeing Gobert put the ball back in half, Xu Xuan shouted excitedly.
What he admires most is a big center like Gobert, who has a sense of security.
"Xu Xuan got the ball, the world team's first offense, let's see how they are going to play..."
The first offense must be played with momentum.
Xu Xuan slowly took the ball through half the court, observing the position of his teammates.
The opposing defense is very serious, which strengthens Xu Xuan's previous thoughts, this game must be won, but also beautiful!
"Xu Xuan chose to split the ball"
"Xu Xuan looks very cautious in the first attack"
After calling Gobert's pick-and-roll, Xu Xuan quickly moved horizontally and pulled to the left, making a move.
"Can't give him a chance!"
From the perspective of everyone on the US team, it is very likely that Xu Xuan will play this ball by UU Reading www.uukanshu.com.
and so......
"Oladippo keenly made up the defense...oh, he was cheated. Xu Xuan didn't want to shoot, Xu Xuan chose to split the ball!"
Xu Xuan played the ball very fast!
"What a wonderful angle!"
A nearly perfect hit to pass the ball to Brother Alphabet who came up to the weak side...flying!
Antetokounmpo rose to the ground instantly after receiving the ball!
Bang!
The basketball was smashed into the basket by him!
2-0, the international team scored first.
"It's pretty, buddy!"
When Brother Alphabet fell back to the defense, he slapped Xu Xuan excitedly.
"Thank you, just remember to help me get rebounds later..."
Xu Xuan is not comfortable playing with players such as Antetokounmpo and Gobert, just like this one. If he played like this with the Pacers, then this one would definitely be a mistake...
"Damn it, it's so easy..."
From the beginning, the US team was prepared to defend seriously with 100,000 points, but it was so easy for the world team to complete the first attack.
"The American team attacked."
"What is Little Payton doing? Breakthrough?"
"Oh! Knoll's pick and roll is really good, Xu Xuan hit the wall"
The start was a pick-and-roll, but Payton obviously underestimated Gobert's defensive strength!
"Slap"!
"Oh oh! The world team put on a hot pot hat at the beginning? The magical Eiffel Tower!"
The American team wants to win, and the world team does not want to lose!
"It is rare to see such a tough rookie game at the beginning. How can this offensive and defensive transition be more intense than the regular season!"
