"Aix, who do you think we'll be the All-Star this year?"

"Are you sure you can be selected?"

"right."

"I."

“…”

Kenny Anderson was speechless. He was sure and sure. The little brother must have understood his problem and was deliberately teasing him.

As the boss, Kenny Anderson would never let his little brother succeed and endure it.

Three minutes later, looking at Zhang Hao who was making pre-match adjustments, Kenny Anderson lost and said, "I mean I can be selected as the All-Star?"

"able."

"I averaged 17 points and 6 assists per game, can it work..."

"We have such a good record, and two All-Stars are definitely not enough."

"The Bulls have had the same record as us in the past two years, only two All-Stars. I was selected last year by your withdrawal."

"That's why Rodman is so unpleasant. If he changes his rebounding champion for six consecutive years, he will definitely be selected as the All-Star every year..."

Yesterday, on the 30th, the voting for the New York All-Star Weekend ended. According to media reports, the league is counting the votes. The league will announce the All-Star starting lineup in the all-American live broadcast of CNTV at noon tomorrow. Tomorrow, the head coaches of each team will vote for the All-Star substitute. Each head coach needs to choose 7 people in the east and west, 1 center, two forwards, two defenders, and two free players. They cannot choose players of their own team.

Not only Kenny Anderson is worried, but O'Neal is worried that he will not be selected as the starter.

After all, David Robinson has played for so many years and is extremely popular. O'Neal led David Robinson in the second phase of the vote.

The other Lakers don't have this concern, because only these three of them are at the All-Star level.

On the other hand, the Trail Blazers have no worries about this. As for the current situation in the Western Conference, although the Trail Blazers are temporarily ranked fourth in the Western Conference, there is basically no possibility that they will be selected as the All-Star.

They are strong, but they perform very evenly.

Isaiah Ledel, the team's scoring leader, averaging 18.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, excellent offensive performance, and a well-behaved defensive end.

Nash, the team's assists champion averaged 11.9 points and 7.7 assists per game.

Sabonis averaged 15.6 points, 11 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1 steal and 1.1 blocks per game, making him the strongest player of the Trail Blazers.

Rashid Wallace averaged 29 minutes per game, scoring 14.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.9 blocks. He was very strong on both ends of the offense and defense, but his playing time was not guaranteed.

The substitute lineup also has averaging 12 points and 9 rebounds per game, and is competing for the best sixth man.

The Trail Blazers' intraroll is quite serious, and the internal environment is very harsh. Zhang Hao and Kenny Anderson chatted and looked at the opposite side. Steve Nash was poking Rashid Wallace seriously and saying something. The poor Heavenly Lord surrendered to the tyranny of the evil thugs, shrank timidly and dared not resist.

The game against the Trail Blazers is about to begin, and the two teams are doing the final adjustments before the game.

At 6:28 pm, a camera appeared next to the Lakers bench and the lights dimmed.

The fans at the scene were ready. As Shifo roared wide, overwhelming cheers sounded at the scene, and the two teams started to play!

Rashid Wallace came to the center circle and wanted to roar back at Zhang Hao who was coming to the other side of the center line, but turned around and looked at Nash staring at him.

The Heavenly Lord dared not speak out, so he could only endure it silently.

"Wolf Roar (Silver) triggered, the players participating in this game are full of fighting spirit, and they are invincible."

Zhang Hao looked at Rashid Wallace's facial features and his expression was slightly regretful, and Tianzun actually held back!

Nash, the suit thug, has good leadership skills!

Also, this expression is so terrifying, doesn’t the referee want to send a shot?

After a closer look, although the referee was bald, he was not a white man, but a black man... It was even more regrettable.

At 6:30 pm, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game and threw the ball into the air. The game began!

O'Neal jumped hard, narrowly defeated Rashid Wallace with the advantage of half the middle finger, and the Lakers attacked first!

Until now, the best way for more teams to think of is to defeat the Lakers in jump balls. There are a few teams with conditions, such as the comprehensive conditions such as height and wingspan bounce, Rashid Wallace, who is not inferior to Duncan and Garnett, is capable, but these people are still slightly at a disadvantage in the jump ball when facing O'Neal, who has not yet gained weight.

Zhang Hao received a pass from Kenny Anderson to the free throw line, attracting Rashid Wallace and Isaiah Ledel to attack, and made a mid-shot. He stopped and made a mid-range shot... missed!

O'Neal was stuck by Sabonis, and Jason Williams followed up with a tip-in.

The opponent has been trying to find ways to deal with the Lakers' fast break at the start. Zhang Hao, O'Neal, and Kenny Anderson are also trying to maintain the success rate of the fast break at the start. Until now, they are still maintaining a good start.

Trail Blazers offense.

Nash pushed into the frontcourt and saw Zhang Hao guarding the top arc. The other four starters of the Lakers were Kenny Anderson, Doug Christie, Jason Williams, and O'Neal.

Having not seen each other for more than a month, Zhang Hao actually played as a small forward. He played pretty well. Nash deeply felt what it means to ride a talented face...

Sabonis went to the left of the free throw line, Isaiah Ledel went to the right bottom corner, Walter Williams went to the 45-degree angle on the left, the space was widened, and Nash and Rashid Wallace broke through the pick-and-roll!

As the pick-and-roll was unfolded, Sabonis moved to the left bottom line, Rashid Wallace disassembled and moved to the left side of the free throw line, Walter Williams moved to the top arc, Nash played singles after pick-and-roll Jason Williams broke into the inside 1

The Trail Blazers are one of the few teams to not be affected by three-pointers... Rashid Wallace was affected. He only made 2 of 10 shots in the last 13 games, but Walter Williams still maintained a 43.8% three-point shooting percentage, averaging 1.3 three-pointers per game. Isaiah Ledel averaged 1.9 three-pointers per game with a 34% three-point shooting percentage. Nash was almost unaffected, and he still had a 41% three-point shooting percentage of 1.2 three-point shooting percentage.

The space was opened very well, and Nash had a very good chance of breaking through. He broke into the basket. When O'Neal let out Sabonis and retracted, Nash did not pass, and suddenly grabbed the ball and made a step layup...

The rhythm was very strange. When O'Neal took it back, he waited for Nash to make a shooting move. As a result, Nash stepped forward with his right foot and threw the ball with his left hand...

Even though O'Neal had studied this move before, he asked Zhang Hao to help him with training to prevent it. He encountered it in the game, but he still didn't react in the first attempt.

Nash made a throw shot, and the Trail Blazers also steadily won the first attack, and Zhang Hao shrank to the bottom line to make up for the defense of Sabonis also shrank in vain.

After more than a month of fighting again, the Lakers clearly discovered that the Trail Blazers made good use of the expansion of the area within the three-point line and did a great job of restraining space.

After the game began, Zhang Hao did feel that the Trail Blazers were in better shape than the teams they had previously played. This was the 6th game of "hell training". The Jazz's strength can be said to be more stable than the Trail Blazers. During this period, the Heat, Suns and Supersonics did not perform well at this stage. Gugliotta of the Timberwolves was injured, giving the Trail Blazers a chance to rush to fourth place, but the Trail Blazers could grasp it, and it was indeed their own performance that they performed better at this stage. The Suns and Spurs were also rushing to fourth place, but the Trail Blazers were rushing to fourth place.

The last time he played against the Trail Blazers, it was basically equivalent to Rashid Wallace being absent. The Lakers won easily, but this time Rashid Wallace was not sent off. After Zhang Hao turned around and stepped back and made a jump shot, he roared. Rashid Wallace also did not return because of Nash's warning...

It is obvious that Rashid Wallace, who is doing his best on both sides of the offense and defense, has helped the Trail Blazers' team offense and defense very much!

He is really a very excellent inside player, not greedy for action. As long as the team has requirements and is willing to do dirty work and tiring work, the defensive end is everywhere. Although he is not as good as Garnett and Duncan, he also has his style... It looks scary when it comes to fixing defense. Compared to Rashid Wallace, Duncan and Garnett look so handsome.

The game was played back and forth, and the Trail Blazers led by 11 points at the beginning of the second quarter. The Lakers were in a disadvantage many times. Zhang Hao was hit by the opponent when he tried to make a strong effort. Mike Dunleavy, a rookie who could lead the Lakers to the finals in the season. Although it was the highlight of the Magician and James Worthy, Mike Dunleavy's suppression of Rick Adelman on the spot that year was remarkable. He was not very good at building the system, but with his predecessors setting the framework well, his on-the-spot command ability was indeed excellent.

This time, Mike Dunleavy led the Trail Blazers to perform well with the frame left by the poor throated Calesimo.

At this time, Rick Fox, Jason Williams, Kenny Anderson and Brent Barry stood up.

Rick Fox took advantage of Zhang Hao's restraint and commanded the offense at the free throw line and allocated the ball. Kenny Anderson seized the opportunity to slip on the baseline or wing to catch the ball, Jason Williams rushed, and Brent Barry responded...

In the middle of the second quarter, the Lakers scored 5 goals in 8 rounds. In one of the rounds, Zhang Hao actively rushed to grab the game and made both free throws, and he also made a 15-8 wave, narrowing the gap behind to 4 points.

Zhang Hao scored 2 points with free throws at this stage, and the other 13 points were obtained by his teammates.

The teammates' outstanding performance helped the Lakers keep the score tight. O'Neal had three minutes left in the first half, and he was replaced until Sabonis was replaced before he came on the court. O'Neal came up and scored 5 points. Zhang Hao made a jump shot from the bottom line that received O'Neal's pass. The two teamed up to score a 7-5 wave, stabilized the situation, and chased the score to 52-54!

In the last attack of the first half, O'Neal received the ball and distributed it to Zhang Hao again. Zhang Hao received the ball and broke through to the inside. The Trail Blazers' contraction defense was very fast, and they were prepared for Zhang Hao's emergency stop jump shot and cutting the basket, but they could not defend! Zhang Hao used the Nash version to step a layup and threw the ball out and circled it around the bottom line. The Trail Blazers' inside had not made defensive moves that interfered with the shooting, and the ball had already fallen into the basket...

With Rashid Wallace's buzzer-beating and long shot in the middle line, the Lakers tied the score after the first half!

O'Neal scored 9 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks in the first half, and Zhang Hao scored 12 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block in the first half. Neither of them scored the highest score. Jason Williams scored the highest score, with 13 points and 6 rebounds, and 4 of the rebounds were offensive rebounds.

Jason Williams scored 8 points in a single quarter in the second quarter and 3 offensive rebounds, helping the Lakers stabilize the situation!

In the second half, basically the two teams started from scratch.

After making adjustments to the halftime break, the players of both teams returned to the court.

The Lakers sent Fisher, Doug Christie, Rick Fox, Zhang Hao and Ben Wallace.

The Trail Blazers sent Cary Grant, Isaiah Ledell, Alvin Williams, Rashid Wallace and Kevin Cato.

Sabonis and Nash didn't play, but the Lakers didn't dare to be careless.

This lineup is very conducive to the performance of Isaiah Ledell, the Trail Blazers' top scorer who averages 20+ points per game.

Gary Grant, a talented point guard who was destroyed by injuries, was a rookie with 15th overall pick in the first round in 1988. He played 44 games in the 89-90 season in the second grade, averaging 13.1 points, 10 assists and 2.5 steals per game, and 3 44 games in a single game. He was regarded as the next Stockton at the time, and it was an enhanced version of height and athletic ability, with an efficiency value of 23.5, and the third highest point guard that year, second only to Magic Johnson's 26.6 and Stockton's 23.7.

At that time, the Clippers were expected to rise with this talented point guard. They scored 19 wins and 25 losses at the beginning of that season. Last season, they only had 21 wins and 61 losses, and last season, they only had 17 wins and 65 losses. This time they were expected to achieve the best record in team history before the All-Star Weekend.

But in mid-January, Gary Grant's cruciate ligament broke and was reimbursed for the season. His injury was healed in the second year, and he was good in physical fitness and had few injuries later. However, his athletic ability was destroyed by the major injury reimbursed. He became an ordinary weak team starting lineup, with an average of 8+7 levels per game. He lost his starting position after 30s. He joined the Trail Blazers for 1.6 million in two years last summer.

Not to mention, he played well, and he averaged 4.8 points and 3.3 assists per game so far. With the Trail Blazers' main team, Gary Grant performed well.

Kevin Cato, the 23-year-old rookie with 15 picks in the first round, averaged 13 minutes of playing time and scored 4 points, 4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks, and his performance was also good.

The third quarter started and the Trail Blazers attacked first.

Isaiah Lydel made a mid-range shot from Rick Fox alone, his skills were really superb, and the thorns were a little bit thorns. Such good strength and good data could only get 18 million US dollars in four years, but the Spurs' Pippen knew very well that salary does not represent strength.

The 81 three-pointer is good, so I slowly adjust it. Before Alvin Williams saves and Kato gets up, Zhang Hao slowly adjusts to push and shoot a three-pointer...

Hit!

57 to 56, the Lakers overtook by 1 point!

After scoring the goal, looking at Kato who seemed to want to find a crack in the ground to hide, Zhang Hao had a whim...

"ah……"

"Wolf Roar (Silver)" triggered, Zhang Hao didn't use much strength, but the sound he roared was loud... and it was not flat.

Kato's face was already dark and red. At this moment, he was directly angry and wanted to pounce on Zhang Hao, but before he could pounce on him, he was stopped by Rashid Wallace who rushed out immediately and Alvin Williams who had reached the top arc.

The referee who was prepared was also quickly surrounded.
To be continued...
