    Iverson's breakthrough was still sharp, but after Sanders replaced Garnett with Cassel, Kobe and Cassel used double teams to delay him from time to time. This time, the Eastern team's engine was struggling.  Because of the height gap, Iverson often had no choice but to jump up and pass the ball after being double-teamed. This was exactly what the Midwestern team wanted. Through their tacit cooperation, Iverson continuously stole two of Iverson's passes.  Passed the ball several times and slowly regained the momentum.

    Iverson encountered a lot of pressure in two consecutive attacks. Although he was confident, he was not a paranoid player. He did not play hard like before, but played with his teammates in a tacit understanding.

    However, the Western team is still stronger in terms of strength. The offensive firepower of the Eastern team's two interior lines is really too weak. Yao Ming has scored several small hooks over O'Neal's head at this moment, and the point difference is slowly getting bigger.  It was pulled away by 20 points. By the end of the second quarter, the Western team just led by 20 points at 74:54, which seemed to be a continuation of the previous All-Star Game.

    During the halftime break, because it was the All-Star Game, the players did not go to the locker room to rest as usual, but interacted with the fans on the sidelines.

    The All-Stars are meant to be enjoyed. There are 82 games in a season, and there are so many back-to-back games. These stars are the untouchable core of each team and play a lot of playing time. The All-Stars are like the halftime break in the game.  It's for them to relax, so they don't really care about winning or losing the game.

    At this moment, the other players of the Eastern Team did not show much emotion due to the lagging score on the field. They interacted with the fans and enjoyed a rare holiday.

    But there was one person sitting on the bench, with his hands folded in front of him and his head lowered. It was Iverson.

    Iverson is now caught in an incomparable contradiction. Just like he was in the 76ers, he wants to play, but in the face of the opponent's targeted defense, he can easily fall into mistakes, and he wants to  Cooperate with your teammates to play, but there is a gap in overall strength. If you continue to play like this, you will eventually lose.

    The Staples venue had a great impact on him. Two years ago, it was on this venue that he worked hard in every game, but in the end he failed to take away even a victory.  The feeling of giving everything but still not getting what you want is really a very sad feeling.

    In this league, there is no one who works harder than him, but unfortunately, his efforts cannot be equally rewarded. He has given everything for victory. He can change his position, from point guard to shooting guard, and he can reduce himself.  The number of shots is to get his teammates involved in the game. He can stand up at critical moments to save the team's life. However, on this field, his efforts failed to get the final reward.

    He was really unwilling in his heart.

    Just when Iverson was frustrated, a person suddenly sat next to him. He looked up and saw that it was Tracy McGrady, the player who had won two consecutive scoring titles. He was still leaning on the bench with hazy eyes.  He looked lazy, as if he never woke up.

    McGrady saw Iverson's depressed mood and asked with concern: "Allen, what's wrong with you? You seem to have something on your mind?"

    Iverson looked at McGrady and smiled bitterly. It should be said that McGrady was very invisible in this game. With his super scoring ability, he seemed to have no desire to win this game at all, but he also knew that McGrady had  With a physical talent that is envied by everyone, it is normal to be a little lazy.

    Iverson smiled bitterly and said: "Tracy, do you want to win this game?"

    "Win the game?" McGrady straightened his back and said with a smile, "Allen, this is just an All-Star game. Everyone is here to stretch their muscles. Play an exhibition game for the fans to see, lose or win.  , does it really make sense?¡±

    Listening to McGrady's answer, Iverson suddenly didn't know how to answer. He suddenly felt that he had different opinions and didn't agree with each other, so he remained silent and didn't speak.

    McGrady noticed Iverson's expression, maybe he was too open when communicating with the fans just now, and then he remembered Iverson's character. At this time, he remembered what he heard on the court before about O'Neal and Hua Hua.  During the conversation between Laishi, he coughed twice and then said: "Alan, I'm sorry."

    "Huh?" Iverson suddenly heard McGrady apologize. He raised his head in slight surprise and looked at McGrady, wondering what he meant.

    McGrady slowly opened his glasses, as if he was a sleeping warrior. Although his glasses were still small and he still looked like he was not awake, you could feel the joy in his eyes.  Spirituality?He really woke up.

    McGrady put away that cynical look and said quite seriously: "Allen, you just asked me if I wanted to win the game, so let me ask you, do you really want to win this game? You know this is really  This is an exhibition match. If the two sides really compete against each other, they will not be able to win the game. It will consume a lot of physical strength and may lead to injuries. "

    After saying this series of words, McGrady finally looked at Iverson with piercing eyes: "Allen, is this game really worth it?"

    Iverson nodded without even thinking about it.

    McGrady was surprised that Iverson expressed his stance so quickly, but when he saw the fighting spirit in his eyes, he knew that Iverson was always the same Iverson, the one who never admits defeat. He grinned.  He said, "I'll help you."

    "Three short words, but like a stream of warmth. For Iverson at this time, there is indescribable warmth. These three words also express McGrady's attitude. He is willing to fight for Iverson.

    The interaction between the players and fans on the sidelines continued, and no one noticed the tacit answers between the two big guys on the bench. Soon, the halftime break passed among various entertainment activities.

    Once on the field, the Eastern team attacked first, and both sides sent out their starting players.

    Iverson controlled the ball until halftime, and McGrady held the ball. He faced Garnett, who could defend from position 1 to position 5 and was at his peak in defensive ability. However, he had no intention of backing down.  He held the ball, made a probing movement, and a bright light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

    Anthony was defending Carter at the moment, and his eyes inadvertently glanced here. Seeing the sparkle in McGrady's eyes, his whole body suddenly trembled uncontrollably. He rarely saw this kind of look, even before time travel.  The only times he saw McGrady were when he beat the Spurs with 13 points in 35 seconds, and when he scored 62 points in a single game. At that moment, like everyone else, he felt that McGrady, the history of the league,  The most talented player seems to have woken up.

    When the players from the Eastern Team saw McGrady's posture, they also knew that he was going to start singles mode, so they consciously distanced themselves.

    When McGrady faced Garnett and saw enough offensive space, he suddenly accelerated. He knew what the previous advantages and disadvantages of himself and Garnett were, so what he had to do was use speed to get rid of Garnett.  Nate.

    McGrady's first step was really fast, even faster than Anthony's. With one of his movements, Garnett only moved one foot, and then heard a "swish" sound from behind.

    McGrady used his speed to take a step away from Garnett, and without doing anything, he followed up with his best pull-up jumper, easily scoring two points for the Eastern team.

    Garnett was a little confused at the moment. As one of the top five power forwards in the league this season, he absolutely believed in his defensive ability, but because he played as a power forward, he rarely faced off against McGrady.  Opportunities to position, and even in the few rare matchups, in his memory, McGrady was not so fast.

    He doesn¡¯t understand a little, why is McGrady so fast all of a sudden?

    McGrady didn¡¯t have much emotion after hitting the shot. He just looked at the scoreboard and then quickly retreated.

    Although Garnett was confused, he didn't care much because the Western Conference team had such a big lead at the moment and continued to invest in the offense.

    The Western team's ball fell for several rounds, and finally came to Yao Ming's hands inside. Facing O'Neal, Yao Ming began to dance with his "Shanghai Dance". Although O'Neal held his position, he couldn't stand Yao Ming's steps, which were too weird.  , and finally took a hit.

    Yao Ming shook O'Neal away and scored with a hook.

    At this moment, an extremely fast figure suddenly descended from the head. The speed was so fast that even the spotlight could not catch up.

    "Snapped!"

    There was a crisp sound, and before the ball landed, Tracy McGrady slapped Yao Ming's hook away with a big shot.

    "So fast!" Johnson almost hit his chin when he saw McGrady. The McGrady in front of him really didn't look like the McGrady he knew.

    McGrady slapped Yao Ming's hook away, then grabbed the rebounded ball and, in everyone's astonishment, swung the ball out.

    There was no need for him to shout. Iverson was already running towards the Western Team's backcourt at lightning speed. McGrady's pass went directly to his hands. Then he ran alone on the court and reached the backcourt.  An easy hit scored another two points for the Eastern team.

    With this back and forth, the point difference was instantly reduced by 4 points, but fortunately the Western team still had a lead, so it didn't matter much.

    Because McGrady had blocked the shot before, this time, the Western team did not give the ball to the inside anymore, and handed it over to Kobe for singles. He originally had a smooth start, but he did not score many points after entering the second quarter. This made  He was further and further away from being the Most Valuable Player of the All-Star Game, but fortunately, the opportunity came back.

    The player who defended him was naturally Iverson, who had been alone in no one's land before.

    As soon as Kobe held the ball, he met Iverson's eyes, both of them were full of fighting spirit.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?How much do you care.
