On the evening of February 13, the 2001 All-Star Game finally started.
Everything was just as Wang Dalin remembered. The Western Stars had been leading in the first three quarters, and they even led by more than 20 points before the start of the fourth quarter.
In the last quarter, Iverson and Marbury led the Eastern team to launch a desperate counterattack. Iverson scored 15 points in the final quarter, and Marbury scored a key three-pointer to overtake the score.
The Western team had a chance to win, but Kobe passed the ball to Duncan. Duncan's last shot was ruthlessly blocked by Carter. In the end, Iverson was elected as the MVP of this All-Star Game.
After the All-Star Game, each team resumes its regular season journey.
On February 14, the Heat faced the challenge of the Clippers at home.
This game was not broadcast live on TNT, but in another live broadcast of the Lakers' away game against the Nets, Smith asked Barkley to honor his bet on the spot - eat his underwear!
"Hey, Charles, so that you can taste the authentic taste of Kenny, I wore these underwear for three whole days, and I brought them to you before they were washed!" Smith took it from a paper bag with a half-smile. I took out something and saw that this yellow "underwear" was covered in stains and blackit looked disgusting!
Looking at the thing Smith was holding, Barkley almost cried on the spot.
Why the hell are they called underwear?
Are you sure this is not a rag that has been used to wipe the toilet?
When he took the "underwear" from Smith with trembling hands, he realized that the black thing was actually an egg pancake with a layer of dark chocolate Who knows which Michelin star Smith had found? How can a chef make egg pancakes look like underwear?
This is just a stunt by TNT. How could they let Barkley really eat Smith's underwear?
At the same time, the Heat's game against the Clippers ended in a fierce confrontation.
In this game, the Clippers' three main rotation players, Eric Piakowski, Sean Lukes and Corey Maggette, all showed stretched hips, although the "left-handed magician" Lamar Odo Mu had an all-round performance of 19 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. The Clippers still lost the game 99:101.
It can be seen from the score that the Heat actually won by a fluke, because the three main rotation players Wang Dalin, Dan Marley and A.C. Green also performed very well.
I don¡¯t know if it was because of his poor performance in the All-Star Rookie Competition that his character was ruined. Wang Dalin¡¯s performance in this game can simply be described as ¡°unsightly¡±.
He only made 3 of 14 shots from the field, 2 of 4 free throws, and only scored 8 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists after playing 29 minutes This kind of performance was a complete disaster for Wang Dalin, who had just been crowned the MVP of the rookie game.
Fortunately, he touched Anthony Mason's head in the second half. Without Mason's highlight performance of 27 points and 12 rebounds in this game, as well as his last-minute buzzer-beating shot, the Heat would have been in disgrace. .
At the end of the game, Wang Dalin and Odom exchanged jerseys. The "Left-Handed Magician" smiled and said: "Boy, you defeated me two days ago, and today I have my revenge!"
Wang Dalin was not willing to be outdone and said: "Lamar, you have to understand that we are the ones who will win today!"
Odom smiled and said: "Anyway, our team is almost at the bottom of the Western Conference. So what if we beat you today? I only care about whether I can win back a victory over you, kid. I don't care about the rest!"
Wang Dalin was speechless and could only roll his eyes.
Odom smiled and said: "You're just kidding, you won't take it seriously, right? By the way, kid, actually I think your style is very similar to mine. If we partnered, we would be very powerful. What do you think?"
Wang Dalin laughed and said: "You can pull me down! If we are on the same team, who is in and who is out?"
Odom smiled and said: "What's the problem? I'll play inside and you can provide support from the high position. Let me tell you, if we work together, we won't be afraid of even that 'shark'. We can sneak him to death." Do you believe it?"
Wang Dalin didn¡¯t answer.
At this moment, he simulated the situation in his mind when he and Odom became teammates, and found that it was exactly what Odom said When the two inside players on the same team both have very good outside shooting capabilities, they are really powerful. of!
If he really encounters O'Neal, how do you want him to defend himself?
Mentioning the high position to prevent projection?
Do you still need an insider?
Do you still need defensive rebounds?
If that¡¯s the case, Wang Dalin and Odom can??Taking turns to fire from outside the three-point line is guaranteed to depress this "shark" to death.

On February 16, the Heat challenged the Raptors away from home.
In this game, Vince Carter seemed to have turned on the "God descends to earth" switch. The "demigod" scored 36 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals.
Even if Wang Dalin "buffs" Bruce Bowen, it won't help. When Carter breaks out with all his strength, no one can stop him these days.
Fortunately, the Heat's Eddie Jones finally returned from injury. In this game, he did not flinch in the face of Carter's offensive frenzy. Instead, he clashed with the league's best swingman.
Eddie Jones also scored 26 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists in this game. Although Carter's performance was so explosive, he single-handedly supported the Heat's perimeter offense.
Wang Dalin had a strained performance in the last game, but this game finally returned to normal, scoring 15 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
Mason also scored 18 points and 8 rebounds, Hardaway contributed 16 points and 10 assists, and the Heat finally won the road trip 99:91.
After the game, players from both sides hugged each other and paid tribute.
When Carter hugged Wang Dalin, he lay in his ear and said, "Brother, how about coming to Toronto next season?"
"What?" Wang Dalin's English is still very poor, and the fans at the scene were too noisy, so he really didn't hear clearly.
"Brother, I mean how about you come to Toronto next season? The two of us will be no worse than the two in Los Angeles!" Carter had to slow down and speak loudly in his ear.
"Brother this season is not over yet!" Wang Dalin showed an awkward yet polite smile.
"I know" Carter smiled, "So we can leave our contact information first, and I will definitely call you after the season is over You must never not answer my call!"
Wang Dalin quickly smiled and said: "How can that be done?"

On February 18, the Heat continued their road trip, and their opponent this time was the Chicago Bulls.
Since the "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan retired, the Bulls have become a weakling. They have been at the bottom of the Eastern Conference for two consecutive seasons to be more precise, they are at the bottom of the league.
So far this season, the Bulls have not lived up to their expectations and are still at the bottom of the league. After playing more than fifty games, they have only won 10 games!
Starting lineup: Center Brad Miller, power forward Elton Brand, small forward Ron Artest, shooting guard Ron Moser, point guard Bruce Drew.
Do you think the first three look familiar?
That¡¯s right, they are the three people you were thinking of!
Although third-year Brad Miller has not yet grown into the All-Star center he will be in the future, he has already shown great potential.
If the Bulls can let Miller focus on high-post support tactics, they will not be at the bottom of the league.
You must know that Brand is already an All-Star power forward at this time, averaging more than 20 points and 10 rebounds per game. Coupled with the perimeter defender Ron Artest, who averages 11.9 points and 2 steals per game, and Ron Moser, who averaged 19.7 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.3 assists per gamehas to be offensive and defensive, so where is his weakness?
This Bulls team actually has only one weakness, and that is their point guard Bruce Drew. As the starting point guard, he averaged only 6.3 points and 3.9 assists per game!
It can be said that as long as the Bulls can have a more reliable point guard, they will definitely be able to reach the top ten in the Eastern Conference, and it is not uncommon to even reach the top eight.
As a result, the Heat, who ranked second in the Eastern Conference, lost to the Bulls, who were at the bottom of the league, 82:89, causing the biggest upset in the NBA in the past month.
Wang Dalin was not without hard work. He scored 17 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. He also "buffed" Mason, who has performed best recently, but the Heat still lost.
The main reason is that the whole team¡¯s touch is not online. Except for Wang Dalin, no one has a shooting percentage of more than 40% If we can still win, it will be a miracle!
And "touch your head" is not a panacea. Mason only made 2 of 10 shots in this game. He only scored 9 points and 7 rebounds by relying on free throws. His performance was seriously abnormal.
After beating the Bulls, the Heat lost to the Knicks on the road on February 21, with a score of 74:76.
When shaking hands with the opponent after the game, Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy held Wang Dalin¡¯s hand and said with a smile: ¡°Young man, you played well in this game. I look forward to having the opportunity to cooperate with you in the future!¡±
Wang Dalin almost suffered from "embarrassing cancer". He only made 4 of 12 shots in this game. Didn't he play well?
Maybe in Van Gundy¡¯s eyes, as long as he¡¯s willing to defend hard he¡¯s playing well, right?
cooperate?
Even our Chairman Yao has made you useless, you are too cowardly to cooperate! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?He only made 4 of 12 shots in this game. Didn't he play well?
