This Forward is Not Serious - Vol 2 Chapter 596

The show is over, the East and West, no, the roster that should be called Lin Ying and Curry is finally released.

Lin Ying team starting: Harden, Kobe, Lin Ying, Green, Jokic;

Substitutes: Paul, Walker, Klay Thompson, George, Embiid, Drummond, Horford.

Team Curry: Curry, DeRozan, Durant, James, Anthony Davis;

Substitutes: Irving, Westbrook, Beal, Wiggins, Antetokounmpo, Towns, Aldridge.

Judging from the final result, the unprecedented lineup of this year’s All-Star Game has also made the expectations of the outside world completely different from the past.

Lin Ying and Thompson are teammates, Curry and Durant play together, Curry and James are on the same team again, these are full of elements.

And from the perspective of paper configuration, the strength of the two teams can also be said to be very close.

If both sides play seriously, even in the last quarter, this game will be very interesting.

After returning from the selection show, Lin Ying saw a bitter-faced Durant when he returned to the arena.

The second pick was promised, but now there’s nothing left.

It’s okay if it’s gone, he still went to Team Curry!

“Give me back.”

Durant is pretty real.

“I gave it to Xiao Lin Yi.”

Lin Ying was also cheeky.

Durant’s face instantly collapsed.

He definitely didn’t really want something back, but it was just too hard for him to be teammates with James.

“No, I’m going to say I’m hurt.”

Durant said immediately.

This is indeed a viable solution, as simple as a sore buttocks.

The usual regular season injury and absence from the league will require an injury certificate, but an event like the All-Star Game is generally not required, because theoretically no one will deliberately not go.

After all, this represents the highest honor for a player. Even if you don’t want to play, just like Yao Ming, you can just go and play for a few minutes.

Seeing Durant’s expression, Lin Ying knew that Durant was serious.

“Kevin, do you remember when you said you wanted to leave the Nets?”

“Um?”

Durant was a little bit unable to get around by Lin Ying’s big turn.

This topic jumps a little too far.

“If so, isn’t this reliving what it’s like to be an opponent?”

Lin Ying said with a smile.

Durant was stunned, because Lin Ying’s words left him speechless.

“It’s true, it’s just…”

As I said just now, the key to the problem is to be on the same team as James.

Others may not know, but Lin Ying knows that he is a big black.

However, after struggling, he suddenly remembered something, and then suddenly looked at Lin Ying with a smile.

The change in this expression is called a thunderbolt, as if the face of a Peking Opera has changed.

This time, Lin Ying was a little confused by him.

It wasn’t until Durant spoke that Lin Ying understood what he was thinking of coming back.

“Lin, how do you feel about being teammates with that guy Draymond?”

The grievance between Lin Ying and Green was more intense than that between him and James.

After all, he just despised James, but Lin Ying had a serious conflict with Green on the court.

“Feeling? Nothing? Have you forgotten that the coach on my side is Lu?”

Lin Ying said with a smile.

He has great trust in Lue, and he feels that Lue will not give Green too much playing time.

After all, isn’t it good to go to Embiid and Jokic to play the twin towers?

After Lin Ying finished speaking, Durant changed his face again, and his face collapsed again.

But after sighing, he didn’t pretend to be sick as he just said, but accepted his fate.

Lin Ying’s words were a reminder to him that this was just the All-Star Game after all.

…

A week later, the All-Star Game officially kicked off in Los Angeles.

The fans in Los Angeles were completely ignited this weekend.

Not just this unique All-Star Game, but because Kobe is back.

There was no need to wait for the All-Star Game to appear. On the first day of public training, the arena was crowded with a huge influx of fans.

When the Lin Ying team was training, the appearance of Kobe Bryant directly caused the scene to burst into whistles and cheers.

As rivals in different divisions, the two teams only meet twice a season.

Fans were discussing whether Kobe would enjoy cheers or boos when he returned to the Staples Center game, which was prematurely ended here.

Those who shout on social media that fans turn to black, or fans to turn their way, are only a few after all.

Or, most of them may just be fans of other stars taking the rhythm.

The fact is, as the totem of basketball in Los Angeles, the influence of Kobe’s name in the city, like Jordan’s in Chicago, will never be erased.

At this time, Lin Ying saw Durant staring blankly at the scene in front of him.

From Durant’s eyes, he saw a trace of envy.

As an all-time player, who wouldn’t want to have this amount of fans? Or who doesn’t want to be the totem of a city?

Just like the current Kobe Bryant is to Los Angeles, and the current Lin Ying is to Brooklyn.

He once had that opportunity in Oklahoma, only to leave because he didn’t get to the top.

The kind of eyes that yearn to lead the team alone to play a day can’t be hidden.

Lin Ying suddenly felt that Durant might leave earlier than expected.

The warm-up session was just a sign that the first two days of All-Star Weekend were much higher than expected.

When the last day of the All-Star Game came, this emotion reached an unprecedented level.

It might make some people uncomfortable, but the reality is that Staples is busier today than it has ever been this season.

The enthusiasm that burst out of the fans’ bones is purer than the team’s formation of the Big Three this season.

And in the stands, a large number of fans held up various kt boards.

“Welcome to Kobe”, “Los Angeles is Kobe’s forever home”, “We will always love Kobe”…

Kt boards like this are everywhere.

In a trance, everyone seems to think that Kobe is still in the Lakers.

Not only Durant, Lin Ying was shocked by such a scene on this day.

That is, some people seem embarrassed in such a scene.

James’ embarrassed expression felt like he could dig out four rooms and two halls on the ground.

He and Rich Paul have been trying to establish themselves as the new totem of Los Angeles.

They controlled public opinion, created momentum, and everything looked as they expected.

It was only when Kobe returned to Los Angeles that they realized it was an illusion.

The totem of the city of Los Angeles can no longer be changed, no matter who comes here, no matter what achievements can be replaced.

Everything they did before was nothing but the moon in the mirror, and in the end they just deceived themselves.

And Tatum is well aware of this, because without the East and West divisions, he let the Lin Ying team debut after Curry.

The purpose of this is to make Kobe Bryant debut at the end.

His arrangement proved to be very successful.

The Staples Center was filled with cheers as Bryant was the last of the Linds to make his debut.

“Kobe! Kobe!”

After that, the uniform shouts of the fans made people feel a little pantothenic acid even their noses.

Yes, Kobe shouldn’t wear the Lakers jersey again.

But it is precisely because of this that the cheers of the fans are louder than ever before.

Like, do you think those middle-aged men really got so crazy because of Wang Xinling and her song “Love You”?

No, they are just missing their youth.

So does Kobe.

And this may be the true definition of totem.

James lost completely at this moment.

After the debut ceremony, players from both sides came on stage one after another to prepare for the game.

Although we had already greeted each other in the locker room earlier, but when we actually played, we turned our heads and looked at each other, which was still very magical.

Because they are in different divisions, they only play twice a season, which is somewhat unfamiliar.

Jokic and Davis’ jump ball in midfield.

Amid the cheers of the fans, Davis jumped high and dialed the ball back to James’s half.

Curry directly controlled the ball and moved forward.

The All-Star Game was relatively simple. After Curry got to the frontcourt, he chose to give the ball to Durant, and then ran away.

Curry is still the same Curry, always giving up the lead role when needed.

Durant singled out Green with the ball.

Although he changed his jersey and became an opponent with Lin Ying, at this time he had to admit that Lin Ying’s choice of Green was indeed a second move.

At least, when he is on the court, he can continue to slap his face and output as in the past.

Durant’s pull-up jumper after facing Green’s triple threat.

Green’s defense is very serious, but he can’t prevent Lin Ying, nor can he give Durant too much interference.

“Shh!”

Durant showed an excellent touch and opened up against Green’s defense.

Lin Ying’s team’s offense, after Harden pushed the ball to the front court, Lin Ying did not ask for the ball, but made an action to give the ball in.

Kobe just dropped to his familiar high over there.

It doesn’t take a lot of familiarity with “Emotional Intelligence”, because the reaction of the opening fans has already said it all.

If you don’t give Kobe a lot of play at the beginning, I’m afraid the fans on the scene will be unhappy.

Harden also quickly gave the ball in.

The entertainment nature of the All-Star Game is mainly to please the fans.

And in this case, whoever holds the ball and refuses to let go will inevitably be sprayed after the game.

Kobe Bryant catches the ball high and singles DeRozan in the face frame.

Durant played Green, Kobe played DeRozan, you’ve seen the ball this season and it’s amazing how familiar this team is.

At this time, I had to sigh with emotion. Although there were ups and downs, the one Lin Ying and Curry chose for each other was called a “wonderful”!

DeRozan’s defense is also very serious.

Because of this special competition system, these All-Stars have never experienced it, so the entertainment nature of the opening is gone, and they are all taken seriously.

Kobe Bryant’s three-threat attack was unsuccessful, and after shaking in place, he made a difficult backward shot.

DeRozan pounced to interfere.

Kobe Bryant basically faced DeRozan’s difficult shot.

The fan’s breath suddenly stopped, and then…

“Shh!”

A crisp sound of entering the net came, and Kobe’s shot also entered!

Moreover, this is his first shot after returning to the Staples Center, and he entered!

But what’s so strange about this?

After all, no one is more familiar with this venue than Kobe Bryant!

The scene was quickly filled with cheers from fans.

Their youth is still there!

On the Curry side, Curry went to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Durant.

Durant also continued the fiery touch at the opening, and after catching the ball, he made a direct pull-up and hit.

This is, the opening score of 4 points in a row!

And this time, after the goal, Durant made a “call” to Lin Ying to celebrate, which was full of “provocation”.

It seems that he is ready to attack Lin Ying as he said before!

On the Lin Ying team’s side, Kobe continued to catch the ball and play singles.

But this time, he failed to hit again.

On the one hand, DeRozan has put a lot of defensive pressure on him, and more importantly, James is helping Kobe Bryant at the moment!

Obviously, at the moment when the dream was broken, James also put down all his disguise and completely torn his face.

Since he is destined to fail to become the new totem of the city, he will also destroy Kobe’s “return”-style performance.

If he can’t get it, he will destroy it with his own hands!

“when!”

Kobe Bryant’s shot was interfered and smashed out of the frame.

However, when Jokic and Davis were in crazy positions at the basket, a figure jumped high and stabbed the ball up, then quickly took off again and grabbed the ball in his hand. .

Lin Ying!

If James went to attack, it was bound to mean that Lin Ying would be missed.

And just when Lin Ying picked off the offensive rebound and James and DeRozan were both rapidly shrinking towards the basket, Lin Ying sent the ball to the middle with an indifferent pass.

At this time, the fans noticed that Kobe Bryant did not stop after the shot, but was also rushing down.

Lin Ying’s pass was quite comfortable. After Kobe received the ball, a flying basket put the ball directly into the basket!

Durant scored 4 points in a row?

Kobe also scored 4 points in a row!

The Curry team advanced to the frontcourt again, and James was a little anxious for the ball at this time.

He didn’t want to watch the game turn into a rivalry between Durant and Kobe.

Curry hesitated and passed the ball.

It’s just that Lin Ying also directly attacked James on the Lin Ying team’s side.

The so-called come and go is also indecent.

Lin Ying went up and down quickly, and James could only choose to score the ball.

The ball went to Durant after a while.

After Durant’s opening streak, his teammates have instinctively trusted him.

But what Durant did in the next second was shocking.

When he saw Lin Ying assisting the defense, he directly… passed the ball to Lin Ying!

It was too long to play together. Seeing Lin Ying running over, he thought he was catching the ball, so he passed the ball subconsciously!

Lin Ying was forced to “break” a ball, then turned around and went into the fast break.

At this moment, a figure made a fast break, and Lin Ying saw the shaking No. 24 jersey~www.mtlnovel.com~ and threw the ball directly.

Kobe Bryant quickly took a fast break after catching the ball. After reaching the frontcourt, the cheers of the fans rose into the air, which was an iconic counter-dunk.

“boom!”

It may be that the jump height is not enough, and the ball is directly dunked on the basket.

The rebound of the ball made Kobe go straight up and down.

Fortunately, Kobe Bryant’s body control ability is good, and he still holds the ball after landing. Before James struggled to defend, he still put the ball into the basket.

This wave of offense is not perfect, and Kobe is also happy.

But the moment the ball was scored, the Staples Center was still filled with cheers from the audience.

Whose youth will be perfect?

Or, who called Kobe the only totem in Los Angeles!
