in the last quarter of the game, the two sides staged an epic offensive and defensive battle. The stars used all-in-one 1V1 and dreamed of the tough defense of the 90s, which made countless fans excited. There is no doubt that this is the most exciting All-Star in history.
and outside the stadium, because of Kobe, because of Wuhan, this All-Star has a touch of warmth.
"Go on Wuhan stay strong WuHan."
"Go on Wuhan", this is the most prominent Chinese element in this year's All-Star Game. On the billboards on the side of the stadium and on the big central screen, words such as "Come on Wuhan" were displayed. The slogan cheering for Wuhan became a part of the advertisement. In fact, in the past few game broadcasts, fans will notice that there were such slogans on the NBA scene, but it turned out that the behavior on the broadcast has nothing to do with the NBA.
But this time the slogan "Come on Wuhan stay strong WuHan." is obviously no longer a move by the broadcaster, but the NBA officially sent its own blessings to 215 countries and regions around the world. In addition to the commercials on the field, in the broadcast of the All-Star Game, there are also interspersed videos of blessings to Wuhan from the All-Star race stars Walker, Trey Yang, Dongcic , Paul, Lowry and Lillard. . Westbrook also prayed for people affected by the epidemic in Wuhan and other parts of China during an interview with All-Star.
is not only on the field, the NBA also donated 3 waves of materials to China because of the epidemic, with a total value of 18.5 million, which is the highest value among overseas sports organizations or individuals. In fact, a week after Wuhan’s lockdown, the NBA quickly passed various internal meetings and votes and decided to donate 10 million yuan to China, including medical supplies and 2 million yuan in medical equipment.
On Valentine's Day on February 14, the third batch of medical equipment donated by the NBA to Wuhan has been loaded and sent to Wuhan Leishenshan Hospital. This time the donation is a CT machine with a market value of 12 million yuan. The previous donation of 55 monitors worth 4.5 million yuan, the NBA’s three batches of donations totaling 18.5 million yuan, this figure is unmatched in the sports world. Adam Silver, chairman of
NBA, recently accepted an exclusive interview with CGTN, saying that we all stand as one community against the epidemic. In the previous All-Star individual event, Xiao Hua also stated at the press conference that he hoped that the Chinese people would maintain a strong mentality, and that what sports and the NBA did would bring comfort to the Chinese people. These actions of
NBA have been praised by many netizens. It can be seen that the NBA is using one action to reclaim the hearts of the lost people, although this is just a small step.
"New format, new exciting"
On the other hand, in order to commemorate the sudden death of Kobe, this year's All-Star Game has made major adjustments to the scoring method. The score is cleared when entering the second and third quarters. Both sides start scoring from 0-0. There is no time limit for the final quarter. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the scoring leader of the first three quarters plus 24 points is the goal score of the All-Star Game. Which team reaches the goal first wins. Take this game as an example. After the first three quarters, Giannis took the lead 133-124, and whoever came first to 157 in the fourth quarter won. Before the
game, many people had doubts about this restructuring: "With the strength of an All-Star, 24 points can be reached in no minute?" However, no one thought that this competition system has created a classic.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the two teams began to fight hand-to-hand and sent the strongest lineup to play. In the fourth quarter, you chased me, played a playoff-level offensive and waterproof accuracy, and even deliberately arranged to play the opponent's worst defense 1 point. This is also a rare real sword and gun contest in the NBA All-Star Game after many years. In the end, Anthony Davis made a free throw to help LeBron beat the Giannis team. In an interview after the game
, Davis said that the first penalty was deliberately missed. In order to create suspense after the
game, many NBA stars and experts expressed their love for the new game system. Lu Wei wrote on Twitter: "The new gameLet the guys participating in the All-Star Game do their best! "; Tristan Thompson: "This is the most exciting All-Star game I have seen so far."; Knicks player Kevin Knox also agrees with TT's views, and he said: "Good guy, This is how the annual All-Star Game should be played.; Former NBA player and current basketball commentator Kendrick Perkins said: "Am I watching the NBA Finals?"; Bill- Simmons said: "I like this year's All-Star Game very much. I like such a fierce confrontation. Only this kind of game can be regarded as brilliant."
Stephen-A-Smith wrote on social media: "This year this year. The fourth quarter of the NBA All-Star Game is obviously a phenomenon that basketball games should have. For these guys, to be able to perform such a performance in a performance game, everyone should not be more demanding. This is exactly the fans. What the players want to see is what the players want to dedicate.”
After the game, Leonard also specifically talked about the intensity of the fourth quarter under the new rules in an interview, “This is very interesting. Some of our players can Always maintain the intensity like this. At the same time there are 10 top players competing on the field. Once we get in, start competing, have fun, and communicate with each other, (the game) becomes very exciting. I'm very happy that we can successfully reverse, To win."
"Mamba Forever!"
The reason for all this is only two words "Kobe". When the final quarter of the game was changed to commemorate Kobe, it was changed to a "grab 24 points" battle, and when the All-Star MVP was changed to the Kobe Bryant MVP Award, the rare all-star "changed taste" advertised entertainment and joy. No one wants to violate the spirit of Mamba in front of the "Kobe Cup."
The sneakers worn by Leonard, who won the MVP in this game, are also the first pair of signature sneakers issued by New Balance for Leonard. They became the MVP boots of the All-Star Game at the first appearance! If it weren't for this opportunity, you would never have imagined that Harden could maintain such a defensive intensity throughout the quarter.
If it were not for this opportunity, you would never have imagined that the 10 best basketball players in the world would be able to encircle the referee's theory for a penalty in the All-Star Game.
If it weren't for this opportunity, you would never have imagined that when Harden faced the open and chose to pass, James almost reproduced the same actions he did to JR a few years ago.
If it weren’t for this opportunity, you would never have imagined that Rory, the shortest player in the game, would try to create an offensive foul by blocking the shots of the world’s best athletic players for an unrelated All-Star game ...
In the end, with a game-high 30 points, Leonard won the MVP of the All-Star Game and left the first Kobe Bryant MVP trophy in Los Angeles. "It means a lot. It reminds me of It’s really touching to watch him play hard, stand out and win the MVP when I was a child. Therefore, I am very grateful for this trophy.”
Like before the main game, the magician’s salute speech, the singer’s opening introduction, the shouts of "Kobe" from the fans, and the No. 24 jersey worn by all the Antetokounmpo players. And in the interview after the All-Star Game, a reporter mistakenly called James Kobe when Lao Zhan responded, "I don’t mind being Kobe this weekend." The familiar person
on this special day, although Kobe is no longer there, but Kobe is everywhere. Like what Common said at the end, Even in the darkest times, you will feel Kobe&39;s light.
"About Kobe, he has a lot of stories I don’t know very well, but you ask me why I cry, I tell you how Kobe is A person of "
