Chapter 469 Competing for the Rookie Tournament MVP
During the chat between Yang Yi and Yao Ming, the starting players from both sides came to the court, and the game started immediately.
The fans at the Pepsi Center burst into enthusiastic cheers. Don't get me wrong, this cheer is not for Chen Jie, but for Anthony, who is playing at home today.
Obviously, for many people, Anthony is the absolute protagonist today.
But someone made it clear that they wanted to shoot Anthony. Yes, Chen Jie was on the first-year team and was Anthony's opponent, and he and Anthony had a grudge in college.
If he were a teammate, maybe Chen Jie would help him, but as an opponent, Chen Jie obviously wanted to prevent Anthony from being in the limelight.
He didn't want Anthony to show off alone.
Today the first-grade team is wearing light-colored jerseys, and the second-grade team is wearing dark-colored jerseys.
As the whistle blew, the game started, Haslem jumped the ball and was completely beaten by Howard.
Today, Chen Jie is playing the point guard position, Luol Deng is the small forward, and the shooting guard is Iguodala Jr.
Luer Deng got the ball and gave it to Chen Jie, and the game officially started.
Wade and Chen Jie faced off. At the beginning of the game, Wade did not defend with all his strength like he did in the regular season, but just showed off.
This is also the rule of the All-Star Game. If you are too serious at the beginning, you will be scolded for not having any taste.
Wade obviously doesn't want to be criticized by the media.
Chen Jie took the ball and did not play alone. Instead, he gave the ball to Luer Deng. After Luer Deng broke through James, he threw the ball in the air. Howard dunked to end the offense.
At the beginning, the first grade team took the lead.
However, right away, the second grade team fought back.
After Wade broke through to the inside, he passed the ball to Anthony on the outside. The two have a good relationship, and today is Anthony's home court. Wade obviously wants to help Anthony win the MVP.
In fact, Chen Jie also knew in his previous life that in this year's All-Star Game, Anthony won the MVP of the Rookie Challenge.
But now, with him here, the result will of course change.
Chen Jie does not plan to participate in the Rookie Challenge next year. So this year, the only chance to participate in this competition, Chen Jie will win the MVP.
Before the game, he also vented his anger with his teammates.
As the most popular and powerful star in the first grade, other teammates obviously followed Chen Jie's lead.
The mission of the first-year team today has been formulated, which is to help Chen Jie win the MVP from Anthony. The goal of the second-year team is also very simple, which is to help Anthony win the MVP.
Wade's assist. Anthony didn't waste it.
He opened his mouth and said his name, and the fans at Pepsi Center burst into cheers.
At the beginning, both teams still focused on performance.
Although Chen Jie wants to steal Anthony's MVP title, he won't be serious about it.
He still tries his best to give some wonderful performances to the fans.
A spiritual social alley-oop dunk with Luer Deng made the atmosphere at the scene into a climax.
Immediately, James made a series of breakthrough dunks, making the audience even more excited.
Many people feel that this year's Rookie Challenge is indeed the most exciting one in history.
After James dunked, Anthony completed another steal of Iguodala. He directly took the ball for a fast break. Iguodala, who returned to defense, did not foul and watched Anthony dunk the ball into the basket.
However, Iguodala quickly passed the baseline ball to Chen Jie in the frontcourt. Chen Jie did not hesitate and took a few steps to hit a three-pointer, allowing the first-year team to tie the score.
These back and forths dazzled the audience, and many superstars stood up and applauded.
And this wasn't over yet. The next round left all the superstars stunned. Garnett's eyes even widened, as if he didn't know how to operate the DV machine in his hand.
What scene is it that makes the superstars so shocked?
Speaking of which, this is still a series of performances by James and Chen Jie.
The first was Chen Jie. After hitting a three-pointer, Chen Jie did not return to defense, but intercepted the baseline ball from the sophomore team on the spot.
Seeing Chen Jie stealing the ball and sending a baseline pass, Bosh immediately came out to block Chen Jie's layup, but Chen Jie took off directly. Bosh's determination was also very strong, so Chen Jie dunked him.
Chen Jie directly rode on Bosh and slammed the ball into the basket.
Bosh was stunned by Chen Jie and stood there for a long time unable to recover.
The superstars just stood up and applauded Chen Jie. Immediately, James went directly to serve the baseline ball. Then, instead of giving the ball to his teammates, he hit Bosh on the buttocks and bounced it back into his own hand. James took it.
When he got to the basketball, he directly dribbled the ball and passed four people in one line. After that, James performed a violent windmill dunk under the basket.
This time, the atmosphere of the whole place was ignited.
Some of the superstars even took off their hats to James.
"It looks good, it looks good, James and Chen Jie are so competitive!" Zhang Weiping's words were actually seen by many people.
James, who originally wanted to help Anthony and didn't want to take the initiative to attack, seemed to have really seen Chen Jie's performance and couldn't hold himself back anymore. He actually played such a one-man show.
Poor Bosh, after being humiliated by Chen Jie, he was teased by James.
He felt really helpless.
In this way, the game lasted for six minutes and entered the commercial timeout.
The first-grade team led by one point 19 to 18. There were endless exciting scenes, and the fans enjoyed it very much.
Even they started denouncing this abominable advertising pause.
After returning from the pause, the excitement continues.
Both teams have made personnel adjustments. After all, in this kind of game, it doesn't matter the outcome. Anyone who can make the roster must play. However, it doesn't matter how you make substitutions.
As long as Chen, Jay, Wade, James and Anthony are on the court, everyone will feel satisfied.
Oh, no, it would be better to have Howard, his dunks are also very exciting.
He is also a person suitable for such a scene.
Hinrich came on the court, and Wade finally no longer had to face off against Chen Jie.
However, Hinrich, who took on this task, was not happy at all.
He often does it against Chen Jie in training, and he knows how torturous it is.
If it had just started, Xinrich could still count on Chen Jie to play it safe and save some face for himself.
But now, seeing how high Chen Jie was, Xinrich didn't dare to hope.
Chen Jie has already scored nine points. James has scored eight points and Anthony has six points.
The three people scored the most points, and their scores continued to increase.
Chen Jie had a lot of experience playing in front of Xin Rich.
After all, he often defended Chen Jie during training, and Chen Jie always regarded Hinrich as his imaginary opponent in singles.
Chen Jie has many ways to deal with him.
Pull-up three-pointers, breakthrough layups, and alley-oops with Howard, Chen Jie completely had fun.
On this side, the top three 03 players, Anthony Wade James, are not to be outdone.
Although the cooperation between the three people is not very tacit, due to their respective talents, it really looks like that.
Anthony's mid-range shots and breakthrough layups, James' dunks, and Wade's missteps.
The three people combined their three swords, Chen Jie and one husband were in charge, and the competition was in full swing.
Throughout the first half, the fans only watched the performance of the four of them.
Chen Jie scored a three-pointer, and James responded with a breakthrough dunk.
Anthony made a mid-range shot, and Chen Jie and Howard dunked in the air.
Wade made a layup, and Chen Jie broke through the tie bar.
…………………………………………
The games are becoming more and more exciting, and the fans are becoming more and more excited.
When there were six minutes left, the four players went off the court to take a break. The second-year team led 49 to 44 by five points. However, Chen Jie scored the most points. He scored 25 points, James had 19 points, and Anthony had 12 points.
, Wade scored 9 points!
Sitting off the field, Chen Jie didn't look very tired.
He chatted with Luer Deng, and from time to time he stood up and applauded his teammates who played well on the court.
Even occasionally, Chen Jie would joke with McGrady sitting behind him and beat him up for a while.
This game is really an exhibition match for Chen Jie.
However, in the last five minutes of the game, if the score is still not open, it is probably time to take action.
Chen Jie is bound to win this MVP.
Of course, fans at the Pepsi Center still hope to see Anthony win this honor! (To be continued...)
