Six minutes into the first half of the Rookie Challenge, Chen Jie, James and Anthony never played again. Although the game was still enjoyable, many fans were a little disinterested.
They still want to see Anthony's performance, and even want to see the peak showdown between Chen Jie and James.
Although the fans at Pepsi Center dislike Chen Jie very much because Chen Jie once humiliated them.
But they have to admit that in their hearts, they really want to see Chen Jie's performance.
Because, from an appreciation point of view, the confrontation between Chen Jie and James definitely has all the exciting elements.
The scene that the fans were looking forward to soon appeared. After a performance at halftime, the second half of the game began.
Chen Jie, James, Anthony, Wade, and several other star players took to the field again.
The second half started again and they didn't even need to warm up.
Chen Jie used a three-pointer at the beginning to give the first grade team the lead again.
But immediately, Anthony and James responded with alley-oops, igniting the passion of the Pepsi Center fans.
The score between the two teams was still inextricable, and it seemed that the suspense would remain until the last moment.
James' steal and dunk gave the second-year team a long-awaited lead. Except for the opening game, this was the first time they led the first-year team.
Fans saw Anthony's hope of winning the MVP.
They gave James the applause.
But how can Chen Jie make the fans at Pepsi Center get their wish?
The last time I came to Denver, the fans at Pepsi Center booed Chen Jie quite a bit.
Chen Jie is a very vengeful person.
Breaking through Wade, and then dunking between James and Anthony. Chen Jie's one-on-three this time made many superstars stand up and cheer.
Although there were countless wonderful goals in this game, this goal, in the opinion of the superstars, can be included in the top ten goals in today's game.
There is no suspense at all.
Because this goal is not only a wonderful goal from the perspective of appreciation, but also because Chen Jie's goal is a challenge to the three superstars of the second-year team by himself, so it is also very meaningful.
It can be said that this is the most classic scene in this game so far. It is also a reflection of the entire game.
After Chen Jie scored the goal, he was also very excited and yelled at the camera several times.
James and Wade were okay, James even patted Chen Jie on the butt.
However, seeing Chen Jie venting and being so pushy, Anthony was a little unhappy.
This is his territory. He was defeated once by Chen Jie here, and he doesn't want to be defeated a second time!
Anthony played the next ball a little emotionally.
Originally, although the game has been very fierce so far, the players of both teams still put performance and friendship first.
But for this ball, Anthony actually used a post-up to play Luer Deng, and every time he used force, he seemed to be fighting Luer Deng to death.
It was obvious that Anthony was starting to get serious.
His seriousness changed the nature of the game somewhat.
Luer Deng didn't have a very friendly relationship with Anthony. How could he be happy when Anthony beat him up like this?
After being hit twice by Anthony, Luer Deng became angry. When Anthony was going for a layup, Luer Deng pulled Anthony down.
Anthony fell to the ground and stood up. Anthony was very angry and even went up to try to argue with Ruerdeng!
James and Wade rushed up and quickly grabbed Anthony to prevent the farce from getting into a fight even in the Rookie Challenge.
But obviously, this ball gave the game a bit more excitement and realism.
The media and superstars were stunned.
In the studio, Yang Yi, Yao Ming and Zhang Weiping were speechless.
Zhang Weiping kept sighing: "Hey, Anthony, what does Anthony want to do with this ball?"
Yao Ming shook his head. He knew that Anthony probably cared too much about honor.
But in CCTV broadcasts, especially All-Star broadcasts, Yao Ming cannot express the players' psychology.
He can't tell Chinese fans that Anthony doesn't like Chen Jie, and then sees Chen Jie's performance and wants to take the honor that theoretically belongs to him?
If you say this, the country will explode.
Although domestic fans also know about such unspoken rules.
But when Yao Ming revealed his identity, the topic became sensitive.
So Yao Ming wisely chose to remain silent.
However, everyone knew that the game was about to change.
Moreover, the next development also confirmed people's guesses.
One person's emotions can easily affect a group of people.
Anthony is more serious, Luer Deng is more serious.
Chen Jie wants to stand up for his teammates, and Wade and James want to help their teammates.
The game went from a performance atmosphere at the beginning to a real showdown with swords and guns.
In fact, such a duel is still somewhat disadvantageous to Chen Jie.
In the atmosphere of a performance, he played ball after ball, and there was no problem in one-on-three. Because no one showed their full strength.
But everyone showed their true skills.
When James Wade and Anthony are combined, the defensive advantage is immediately apparent.
Immediately Chen Jie felt that it was a little difficult for him to attack.
Wade's defensive pressure on Chen Jie and Anthony's assisting defensive pressure have obviously increased.
After Anthony made the free throw, Chen Jie's breakthrough was destroyed by Anthony.
Then, Luer Deng's strong three-point shot after sending a baseline ball was also blocked by James.
The second-grade team took the lead in showing off.
After preventing the first-year team from attacking, the second-year team began to show its strength on the offensive end.
Luer Deng tried his best to defend Anthony. Chen Jie had no problem defending Wade.
The main point of attack for the second-year team became James.
He has a lot of experience playing against Iguodala in isolation.
In two consecutive attacks, James made a breakthrough and made a mid-range shot, helping the second-year team expand its lead.
Although Chen Jie hit a three-pointer later, the sophomore team continued to work hard and expanded the lead to ten points in one fell swoop.
At this time, there are still fifteen minutes left in the game.
I have to say that from a comparison of strength, the second-year team is indeed stronger than the first-year team.
In terms of lineup, although the second-year team lacks a standard center, their complementary abilities, defense and offense in a small lineup are still very threatening.
As for the first-year team, except for Chen Jie, no one can even compete with the second-year seniors.
The competition is a real one, and the first grade team will undoubtedly suffer.
It seemed like they were going to lose today.
However, Chen Jie obviously didn't want to see this scene coming.
During the timeout, Chen Jie said something to today's head coach.
This is the first time Chen Jie communicates with the head coach today. (To be continued...)
