Chapter 340 After the All-Star Weekend
Cheeks: I definitely don't want Yao Ming and Iverson to play for a while, I just want to win!
Lineup on the field:
west:
Duncan, Nowitzki, Li Lei, Kobe, Nash.
east:
Yao Ming, O'Neal Jr., Carter, Iverson, Billups.
The Eastern Stars attack.
Billups dribbled the ball steadily across the half, forcibly crushing Nash and rushing in.
Li Lei immediately assisted in the defense and blocked Billups.
Billups walked out, but suddenly made a ground pass to Carter who was cutting without the ball.
Carter jumped straight up and clasped his hands heavily.
boom!
11: 13.
Among the 10 players on the field, Billups should be the smallest one.
But none of the other 9 people dared to underestimate him.
A few days ago, the NBA officially launched a voting activity, who is the point guard you most want to coach.
Of the 30 head coaches, more than two-thirds chose Billups.
Who wouldn't like a point guard who can score, is good at defending, can control the rhythm, is strong and tall, has strong key ball ability, is low-key, and doesn't grab the ball?
Compare Nash on the opposite side.
Billups doesn't have a strong sense of presence, but he can organize the Eastern Conference star team in an orderly manner.
The West Stars attack.
Kobe received a pass from Duncan and made a three-pointer.
Swish!
11: 16.
The Eastern Stars attack.
Considering that Nash couldn't hold Billups, Kobe took the initiative to switch defenses.
But Billups was smart and immediately handed the ball to Iverson.
Just staring at you "Nabufang" to fight.
Under the combing of Billups, the Eastern Stars stared at Nash and bullied them, chasing points little by little.
Avery Johnson saw that the situation was not good and made another substitution.
In this way, the head coaches on both sides kept making moves and fighting non-stop.
At halftime, 69:61.
The West Stars are still slightly better.
After all, looking at the roster, the Western Conference star team is also slightly stronger.
On the Eastern side, Joe Johnson, Caron Butler, and Dwight Howard are all All-Stars for the first time, with a slightly lower ranking.
On the west side, there is only one Okur, and the others are all-star old men with strong strength.
In the end, the Western Stars also won the All-Star Game 133:121.
科比得到20分4篮板3助攻2抢断，是西部明星队的最高分，举起了2007年NBA全明星赛的MVP。
李磊17分6篮板3助攻2抢断2盖帽，是西部第二高分。
Nowitzki scored 15 points, 7 rebounds and 1 block, the third highest score in the Western Conference.
In the East, James scored 27 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, the highest score in the game. Unfortunately, the East lost and he missed the MVP.
With the help of Iverson, Yao Ming also scored 19 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks.
At this point, the All-Star Weekend is over.
The second half of the regular season of the 2006-2007 season also started.
Back in Memphis, Mr. Jerry West and coach Rick Carlisle led the team to a meeting.
Discuss the Grizzlies' goals for the second half.
With the current state of the Grizzlies, it is safe to enter the playoffs.
However, there are too many strong teams in the West. If you are not careful, you will encounter favorites such as the Mavericks, Spurs, and Suns in the first round, so you must plan ahead.
Look back at the current rankings in the West.
No.1, Dallas Mavericks.
No.2, Phoenix Suns.
No.3, Utah Jazz.
No.4, San Antonio Spurs.
No.5, Memphis Grizzlies.
No.6, the Los Angeles Lakers.
No.7, Denver Nuggets.
No.8, Golden State Warriors.
The league changed its rules this season, no longer set up small divisions, listed seeded teams, and grouped them entirely according to their regular season records.
Under the new playoff grouping rules, what will the Grizzlies do?
First of all, the first small goal of the Grizzlies must be to avoid the Mavericks, Spurs, and Suns.
Secondly, the current record of the Grizzlies is almost impossible to catch up with the Mavericks and the Suns, and there is some hope of catching up with the Jazz and the Spurs.
Then, the next best plan for the Grizzlies is to rush to third, so that they can face the sixth team, the Lakers or the Nuggets, preferably the Nuggets.
This is more difficult, the competition in the West is too fierce, and the third place is not so easy to rush.
The second best plan is to try to meet the Jazz in the first round without reaching the top four.
After all, among the four teams in the upper half, the Jazz are the weakest.
But this is difficult to control.
So after studying for a long time, the Grizzlies found that it was difficult for them to have the position they wanted in the cruel West.
The only thing we can do is to try our best to play well and never fall to seventh or eighth, otherwise it will be too difficult to meet the Mavericks and Suns in the first round.
So in every next game, the Grizzlies have to do their best.
But the luck of the Grizzlies is so bad, the first opponent after the All-Star break is the Seattle SuperSonics.
The Sonics' record this season is not good, only 20 wins and 32 losses so far.
But unfortunately, the Sonics broke out in this game.
大当家雷阿伦全场20投11中，三分球5投4中，罚球1中1，高效砍下27分6篮板5助攻3抢断。
二当家拉沙德刘易斯全场25投13中，三分球7中3，罚球6中5，效率同样惊人，砍下了34分7篮板1助攻1盖帽。
In addition, Lucidno had 15 points, 3 rebounds, 12 assists and 5 steals.
Chriswell Cox had 13 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal.
Nick Collison had 10 points, 14 rebounds, 1 steal and 3 blocks.
The Supersonics starting five broke out at the same time, it was like a hang-up, and the three got a double-double.
In the end, 121:109, the Grizzlies defeated in the first game after the All-Star break.
In the second game, the Grizzlies met the Warriors who broke out in full swing.
In the absence of "Big Beard" Baron Davis, they broke out.
“武胜”斯蒂芬杰克逊26分3篮板12助攻4抢断1盖帽。
艾尔哈灵顿22分4篮板1助攻2抢断1盖帽。
Monta Ellis had 22 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal.
Biedrins had 21 points, 12 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks.
杰森理查德森19分10篮板5助攻2抢断1盖帽。
In addition, the Warriors made 34 of 17 three-pointers and a 50% hit rate.
In the end, the Warriors scored 129 points and beat the Grizzlies.
In this way, the Grizzlies were still thinking about rushing forward, but as soon as they came up, they led a 2-game losing streak, and they were about to fall.
At this moment, Li Lei knew what he should do.
Their next opponent is the Trail Blazers known as the "Portland Prison".
Although this Trail Blazers team is in the rebuilding period, they have a record of 24 wins and 32 losses so far, which is not bad in the Wild West.
