This Forward is Not Serious

Chapter 421 Riley: I’m not envious

Swift took off his helmet at this time for only one purpose, of course to kiss Lin Ying!

Barkley was still bragging, but he stopped immediately when he saw this scene.

Well, these two couples seize every opportunity to show off their affection!

However, the visual impact is very strong!

Moreover, Swift's figure matches the costume of this female knight, and the moment she takes off her helmet is simply amazing.

Some Nets fans are even more emotional at this moment.

The image of this Brooklyn Cavalier sounds very noble, but fans don't like it very much.

Because of things like mascots, they still prefer animal types.

Historically, this Cavaliers mascot was abandoned after two seasons.

But today they discovered that what they like is not the difference between humans and animals, but the difference between men and women.

If the Brooklyn Cavaliers play at home in the future, they will also love it!

The judges were scoring on the sidelines.

The rating of this last dunk will be confusing because Smith's second dunk was also perfect.

The final score is given.

50 points!

Still no suspense!

This buckle is perfect.

No, Lin Ying was perfect in this slam dunk contest!

With 4 50 points, Lin Ying brought the slam dunk contest championship back to Brooklyn with an absolutely flawless performance!

Smith came on the stage at this time and hugged Lin Ying.

Winning or losing is not the most important thing to either of them. If winning or losing was important, Lin Ying would not pass the ball to Smith.

And Smith has no regrets.

Just like Gordon finally lost to LaVine in history.

The loss was not because I did not perform well or encountered a 9-pointer, but because I really lost to a stronger opponent.

There is no regret in losing like this.

When the two hugged, the scene burst into even more explosive cheers.

The duel between Lin Ying and Smith made this slam dunk contest a classic.

During the award ceremony, Lin Ying gave an acceptance speech. In addition to some regular parts, he also highlighted Smith.

"A great game requires a great opponent, and we should also applaud JR."

In the cheers of the fans, this year's slam dunk contest came to a successful conclusion.

The slam dunk contest is over, but fans are suddenly talking about the dunk contest.

The story of Smith and Bell is known to more people, and the husband-and-wife team of Lin Ying and Swift has also attracted the envy of many fans.

Fans on the Internet are already speculating when Lin Ying and Swift will officially get married.

Although fans are unlikely to be invited to celebrity weddings, fans will be very happy when they see the news.

The next day was the day of the All-Star Game.

After finishing the morning fan interaction, the All-Stars went to the locker room one after another to make final preparations for the game.

On the Eastern Team side, a group of people were chatting happily.

Especially James, an absolute social butterfly.

On the Eastern Team, the Big Three are his teammates, and he also takes the initiative to chat with Irving and Harden.

From time to time there would be some strange laughter.

In comparison, Lin Ying's side was a little more deserted.

He is more familiar with his teammates in the Western Conference, including Kobe, Yao Ming, and Durant.

Just as we were talking, Kobe came to the Eastern Team locker room.

James saw Kobe coming and pushed aside the crowd, stood up and reached out to Kobe.

Kobe also smiled and opened his hands to James, the two hugged, and then exchanged a few polite words.

Then, Kobe walked straight towards Lin Ying.

"Yesterday's slam dunk contest was fine."

Kobe patted Lin Ying's shoulder and sat next to him.

James looked at Lin Ying and Kobe for a while, then finally looked away and continued chatting with Irving and the others.

"This time it's at Chris's former home court, and we all said we would help him win this MVP."

Unlike James's pleasantries, Kobe really came to chat with Lin Ying.

The predecessor of the Pelicans, the New Orleans Hornets, was Paul's previous team.

"So you want me to let you go?"

Lin Ying said with a smile.

Kobe was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

He found that Lin Ying was indeed much more competitive now than before.

"No, I want to say that you have to work harder. We don't want to win without any resistance. That would be boring."

Kobe said with a smile.

The reason why he said this is also very simple. He is also very familiar with Lin Ying and knows that Lin Ying is the kind of person who is very Buddhist in the All-Star Game.

If Lin Ying is really not prepared to play well, then the Eastern team will basically have no chance.

Note that this has a premise. Kobe said he would help Paul win the MVP, so the Western Conference team would play well, and it would not be a mere exhibition game.

"Don't worry, it won't be boring."

Lin Ying answered with a smile.

Tatum was promised to participate in the slam dunk contest before, and the topic has come up, and he will definitely compete in the main game.

After all, acting requires a complete set.

Now that Kobe is saying the same thing, he has to step up his efforts.

When the conversation was almost over, Kobe got up and left.

Before he went out, James stood up and said hello to him again. Kobe responded, and then he didn't forget to wave in Lin Ying's direction before he went out.

"Kobe and Michael are really similar."

After Kobe left, Deron couldn't help but speak.

"I think Jordan should have gone to the Western Conference locker room to chat with him like this."

Lin Ying said.

"This is a kind of inheritance. They are all evergreen trees in the NBA."

Deron smiled and nodded.

Evergreen?

Lin Ying nodded.

Kobe has not suffered an Achilles tendon injury and can really become an evergreen tree like Jordan.

The All-Star Game appearance ceremony will not be performed by Swift this year.

And the Eastern team was also the first to appear.

Lin Ying was the last one to appear in the Eastern Conference starting lineup.

The venue was filled with cheers from the fans when he came on stage.

This also further confirms that Lin Ying’s vote-leading American fans really made a lot of contributions this time.

Even for the Western Conference team, only Kobe enjoyed this level of cheers when he came on the court.

After the opening ceremony, there was a pre-match warm-up. Lin Ying was caught and interviewed by Kenny Smith after finishing the warm-up.

Probably asking him if he would give his best tonight or something like that.

It seems that because of his "conviction" record, Kobe is not the only one who is worried about his paddling.

"Yes, I will bring the MVP trophy to the East."

Lin Ying's words were very straightforward.

Because there can be two understandings here.

The first level is to help the Eastern team win, and the MVP naturally belongs to the Eastern Conference.

Of course, it can also be understood that he wants to win this year's mvp.

But no matter which one it is, it is worth looking forward to.

The warm-up is over, and the starting lineups of both sides have appeared one after another.

Eastern team: James, Irving, George, Anthony, Lin Ying.

Western Team: Curry, Kobe, Durant, Griffin, Yao Ming.

Lin Ying and Yao Ming's jump ball in the center circle.

These two looked very funny as soon as they stepped towards midfield.

If nothing else, your height is exposed!

Lin Ying's current official height is still 2.09 meters when he took the physical test for the draft, and Yao Ming is 2.26 meters.

But now that the two of them stand in the middle, there is at least a 20cm difference.

Of course, not many people care about this detail, but they just think the scene of the two standing together is very funny.

The referee blew the whistle, and Yao Ming without any suspense returned the ball to the Western team's half, giving the Western team the opportunity to take the lead in attacking.

As soon as he came up, Yao Ming asked for the ball in the low post, and then after Kobe fed the ball in, he directly hit Lin Ying with his back in the low post.

Lin Ying didn't suffer too much in the confrontation, but Yao Ming was indeed too tall.

Yao Ming chose a hook shot that turned around. Lin Ying predicted it, but still couldn't cover it.

"Uh-huh!"

Yao Ming took the lead in scoring for the Western Team.

And after Yao Ming scored, the Western team quickly retreated to halftime.

It seems like what Kobe said before, they are preparing to win the MVP for Paul tonight.

East's offense.

Lin Ying didn't ask for the ball at first.

Because the ball is in James' hands.

James' desire to attack tonight is also quite strong.

And in basketball games, the ball is in the hands of both defenders.

At this point, it seems that the reason why James has been communicating with Irving before has been found.

James took the ball and broke through the basket, finishing with a tomahawk!

Here I have to talk about the position of the Eastern team.

Because there is no serious inside player in this starting lineup, Riley's arrangements are all on the outside.

Including Lin Ying, the "fifth position" is also at the top of the arc.

So it turned into space basketball, or small ball play.

Yao Ming was pulled to the top of the arc, and the space for James to break through suddenly became very large.

The first attacks of both teams at the beginning were very targeted, which aroused the interest of the fans at the scene.

It’s not like we’ve never played the All-Star Game before, but it basically had to go to the last quarter.

The intensity felt very high at the beginning today, which is indeed a bit surprising.

The Western Team wanted to pass the ball to Yao Ming, but Lin Ying stepped forward at this time.

As he told Kobe before, he played seriously.

Pay attention to every turn and every detail.

The ball couldn't be lobbed in, so Kobe then called Griffin to come up and play the pick-and-roll.

A pull-up jumper after breaking apart.

"Uh-huh!"

The catch is that Anthony is not good at guarding pick-and-rolls.

This is also true!

Then, after the Western team retreated, Kobe began to defend James holding the ball closely!

Space basketball is difficult to defend, but if someone can keep an eye on the arrow figure, it can limit it to the greatest extent.

James finally broke through and passed the ball to Irving.

Irving received the ball and made a three-pointer.

"Uh-huh!"

The knife fell from the hand.

5 to 4!

The fans at the scene became more and more excited.

Because the defensive intensity of both sides is really not low, but they can really score!

Or to put it another way, this is the kind of All-Star Game they want to see.

Players don't think about injuries or consumption, they just play seriously.

Although it's impossible to play like this every year, at least this time they felt it was possible!

This is indeed what happened on the field.

Although these 10 people on the field were selected by the fans, they are basically the strongest in active service.

Then, the Western team gradually took advantage.

At this time, the Western Team had replaced Paul.

Paul's ability to fight tough battles during this period is still much better than Curry's.

Of course, the more important thing is that he is familiar with Kobe and James.

This quarter lasted about 7 minutes, and the score became 13-20, with the Western team leading.

Both sides have rotated extensively, and all the starters on the Eastern team except Lin Ying have been eliminated.

It's not that Riley wanted to consume Lin Ying in the All-Star Game, but because the ball was basically in James' hands before the Eastern Team, Lin Ying didn't play much.

At this time, the lineups on both sides of the court were Eastern Team: Deron, Wade, Lin Ying, Bosh, Howard;

West Team: Paul, Westbrook, Kobe, Aldridge, Love.

"Uh-huh!"

Kobe received a pass from Paul and hit a fadeaway mid-range shot.

There is no training and running-in process in the All-Star Game. This kind of cooperation between teammates is obviously much more tacit.

After Kobe Bryant scored, he smiled and spread his hands towards Lin Ying.

This was obviously an attempt to provoke Lin Ying.

Lin Ying arrived in the frontcourt, and Kobe was guarding him.

He just reached for the ball.

It was Deron who was in possession of the ball at this time, and he gave the ball to him immediately.

Kobe directly confronted Lin Ying.

Lin Ying could feel that this intensity was not just about getting the MVP for Paul, but also about wanting to fight with him.

He recalled his previous conversation with Deron in the locker room: Kobe is like Jordan.

Like, indeed, vindictive.

Kobe will definitely remember things like last season's finals.

Lin Ying also fought, and after two hard chisels, he turned around and shot backward.

The jump of Kobe's ball was full of interference.

But, it's of no use.

"Uh-huh!"

Lin Ying faced Kobe's interference and hit the ball steadily!

Kobe once described McGrady like this: I can do everything McGrady can do, and he is one size bigger than me.

Lin Ying now is no different from Tracy McGrady in Kobe's mouth!

Moreover, Lin Ying's competitive spirit was indeed aroused.

Returning to the defensive end, he helped defend and directly missed Westbrook's rush to the frame and dribble.

This caused a stir in the scene.

Then Lin Ying took the ball and started a fast break.

The Western team retreated quickly, but still couldn't stop Lin Ying!

During Lin Ying's fast break, he dodged behind his back and made a layup from the middle of the three to score the ball!

Many fans were dumbfounded.

In the blink of an eye, the Eastern team narrowed the point difference to 5 points.

And, it’s not over yet!

After returning to the defensive end, Lin Ying also directed the defensive positioning of his teammates.

One of Kobe's catches and shots was directly interfered by Bosh.

Howard picked off the defensive rebound, Lin Ying made a long throw as soon as he passed the ball, and Wade got rid of Paul after catching the ball and flew in.

The Eastern team played 6-0!

At this time, on the Eastern team's bench, Riley unconsciously rubbed his chin-labial groove with his left index and middle fingers, looking at Lin Ying with an indescribable ambiguity in his eyes.

In fact, it's not that he has never coached Jordan.

In the All-Star Game of the 1993 season, when the Knicks' record was always better than the Bulls, he became the head coach of the Eastern Conference team.

But the feeling now is very different from that then.

Because the All-Star Game was just a performance, the players played by themselves on the court, and the head coach only had a name.

But tonight's All-Star Game played like a regular season game, and he had a strong sense of involvement.

Then, he was a little envious and even jealous of Sloan and Carl.

You think they are hanging up, but actually they are enjoying it.

It's just like,

Sit on it and move it yourself.
