But Liu Xiu scored 17 points in the second quarter, and when he scored 30 points in the first half, he could no longer hide it!

Relying on Liu Xiu's 12 of 18 shots in the first half, he scored 30 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals, Yao Ming scored 3 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 blocks in the first half, Nash scored 5 points, 6 assists, Kobe scored 9 points, Ray Allen scored 6 points, Flying Squirrel 6 points, Stodmeier scored 5 points, Duncan scored 4 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks in the first half... When the half was finished, the Western Conference led the Eastern Conference 86-65 21 points!

...

In the All-Star Game, generally speaking, everyone plays the first half.

In the 2002 Philadelphia All-Star Game, everyone knew from the beginning that night it was Kobe and Iverson's AMVP battle, so they had a clear goal from the beginning.

Tonight, good guy, the Western Army is not moral!

The warden was so despicable that he actually made a sneak attack!

Liu Xiu had 30 points in the first half, and the Eastern Conference scored very average tonight. There was no player who scored in double digits after halftime. Wade, who came on as a substitute, made 3 of 7 shots and 3 of 4 free throws, scored 9 points, the highest in the Eastern Conference.

The score difference of 21 points, and someone on the other side scored 30 points in the half, so the Eastern Conference did not give up on this game.

Instead, they want to try to turn the tables!

It’s 21 points in the first half, and it feels so good to think about it!

Moreover, even Kidd and Iverson, who admire Liu Xiu very much, did not want to see Liu Xiu take away the AMVP like this. Even if they also appreciate Liu Xiu's secretly scored 30 points in the half, they still don't want to be successfully attacked by Liu Xiu like this. Appreciation is one thing, and the game is another.

…

The adjustments made by the Eastern Army during the intermission were expected by the Western Army.

Seeing the combination of Iverson, Wade, McGrady, Tianzun, Ben Wallace on the court, the Western Conference stars knew that the tough battle time was coming!

The Western Conference is also prepared, and the combination of Liu Xiu, Kobe, Ray Allen, Randolph and Nowitzki is on the court!

Due to the excessive number of outside stars in the East, if Yao Ming rests, it is difficult for Duncan to protect the frame by himself... D'Antoni will not worry about defense, offense! Offense! Offense!

At this time, D'Antoni finally felt like coaching the game. He borrowed from the Mavericks' playing style and arranged singles scoring tactics.

Randolph scored a strong shot from the inside, Nowitzki scored a single shot from the outside, Kobe broke through and played in a turn, it was that simple, but after this tactic was arranged, D'Antoni felt very strong!

On the bench, there were Little Flying Squirrel, Little Overlord, Yao Ming and Duncan waiting.

The key point is the two connecting points, Liu Xiu and Lei Arun.

At this time, teammates will definitely not have a priority in passing. Whoever has the best chance will pass to whom, and singles players will also choose to come by themselves.

Although he led 21 points in the first half, it was not a huge score difference for the All-Star Game.

Now, after the second half, the Eastern Conference scored 23-14 in the half quarter!

The Eastern Army relied on Iverson's breakthrough to launch the offensive end, and its performance of 6 points and 4 assists in the half-quarter was amazing.

On the defensive end, Tianzun protects the frame, Ben Wallace can even make up for defense and assist in the middle and close range, and even make up for the three-point line. The two towers that don't like each other did not expect that they would be so suitable for each other, and a strange idea of ​​"It turns out that the opponent knows me the most".

Iverson, Wade and McGrady's high-speed wheel conversion defense is also very strong, which brings great restrictions to the Western Army.

When the official timeout of the third quarter entered the official suspension, the Eastern Army chased the score to 88 to 100, with only 12 points left.

But in this half period, the Western Army gradually adapted to the defense of the Eastern Army. After the official timeout came back, the Western Army replaced the butcher and the Little Overlord with stronger rushing ability, and the outside was replaced by Xiao Feishi, Liu Xiu and Kobe. The shot was more decisive, and the inside rushing was more fierce! The Western Army's offense gradually recovered.

The Eastern Army's offense showed a significant decline in the second half of the third quarter, because Iverson was replaced and rested. Iverson was not there, and the Eastern outside group did not have a clear first attack point, and as they fought, they turned into a turn.

This is the norm for All-Star Games, and it's very rare for the West tonight.

In the second half of the third quarter, the Western Army regained the initiative, and scored a 19-14 score in the half quarter. After the third quarter, the Western Army led the Eastern Army 119-102 and entered the final quarter with a 17-point lead!

Although Liu Xiu encountered strict defense in the third quarter, a large part of the Eastern Conference's defensive focus was on him, he still scored 10 points in a single quarter!

His running scores were as high as 6 points in a single quarter, which was higher than Ray Allen! Even his teammates did not expect it!

Thanks to the 'stamina' copied from Kobe, Liu Xiu ran away every round. Although the Eastern Army strictly guarded him, it was the All-Star Game after all, and it was strict, but it was the only one who tried his best to defend himself tonight...

In addition, there was a single-breaking throw hit and a counterattack layup. Liu Xiu scored in double digits in three consecutive quarters! After three quarters, he made 16 of 26 shots, including 3 of 7 three-pointers, plus 5 of 6 free throws, and 40 points!

After the third quarter, Iverson put his hips on his hips and the Wolf King who was watching the All-Star Game at home cursed.

In the 2003 All-Star Game, Garnett scored 37 points and Iverson scored 35 points, both surpassing Kobe, who scored 31 points in the 2002 All-Star Game, and became the first and second in the single-game score of the active player in the All-Star Game.

Tonight, after the third quarter, this record was broken!

Not only that, Liu Xiu also surpassed Rick Barry, the third-placed Rick Barry, with 38 points in a single game, tied with Jordan to second in a single game, second only to Wilter Chamberlain, who had 42 points in a single game!

During the halftime break, Iverson felt that Garnett's 37-pointer was surpassed at the top of the current 37-pointer, but I guess Liu Xiu played so hard in the first half, and it might not be so easy... Anyway, I never thought that Chamberlain's 42-pointer would be surpassed.

Then I saw Liu Xiu’s third quarter full, with 10 points in a single quarter...

Moreover, Liu Xiu, who had not had a rest for 36 minutes in three quarters, went on the court with his jersey in his arms after the break during the festival, and his eyes widened. He looked full of sharpness and excitement, and he did not feel the fatigue that he should have in the three quarters!

Iverson: Are all young people so scary nowadays? No! It’s this kid who is scary!

…

Eastern team stars have another goal - to prevent the warden from breaking Chamberlain's record!

Just as the All-Star single-game scoring ranking was posted on the big screen, they will naturally have this idea.

The Eastern Force sent a combination of Kidd, Wade, Artest, Rashid Wallace and O'Neal.

The Western Force sent a combination of Nash, Liu Xiu, Marion, Stoudemire and Duncan.

At the beginning of the final quarter, the Eastern Army attacked first.

O'Neal received the ball from a low post and hit Duncan, Marion hit him in a pinch, O'Neal passed the ball... and was intercepted by Liu Xiu!

Liu Xiu passed the ball to Nash, and Nash initiated a counterattack.

Stoudemire and Marion flew together, using the two to attract attention, Nash and Liu Xiu connected, and Liu Xiu received the ball and rushed straight to the inside!

Wade took it back, and his attention to retreating was on Liu Xiu. He jumped high to stop Liu Xiu from tying Chamberlain... "bang"... "bang"... "bang"... "bang"... "beep"...

The sound of Liu Xiu smashing the ball into the basket, the sound of Wade slapping Liu Xiu's arm with his hand, and the sound of the referee's whistle sounding almost at the same time!

Wade's chasing hat turned into taking the initiative to get caught up and get locked up!

The referee indicated that Liu Xiu's goal was valid, Wade made a foul, and Liu Xiu received a penalty!

Amid the crazy cheers of fans at the scene, Liu Xiu adjusted the free throw line for a while, and the referee urged him to make a free throw.

Isn’t it because Big cheeks are too ruthless! The arms hurt so much!

Fortunately, Liu Xiu sucked the collar just now and recovered his physical strength in a short period of time. If his physical strength is fine, he will have better shooting. He will get a steadily hit!

122 to 102, the Western Conference has a lead of 20 points!

As the final quarter began, the Eastern Conference felt that the game tonight was no longer successful.

It was not because of the 20-point difference, but when they were resting between the festival, they were still saying that they would stop Liu Xiu from breaking the record. In the first round, they broke the record with steals + counterattack dunks!

After this ball, the enthusiasm of the Eastern Conference team dropped by most of the time and the defense was not so active.

Liu Xiu, who keenly noticed the changes in the Eastern Conference's defense intensity, was more active in running positions and more proactive in offense!

When the game entered the official timeout again at 6 minutes and 53 seconds in the fourth quarter, the score reached 144 to 117, and the difference reached 27 points!

Even in the All-Star Game, it is impossible to catch up with this score difference in 5 minutes.

After the official timeout, the Eastern Army replaced Arenas, Wade and James, and the Western Army replaced Flying Squirrels, Marion and Stoudemire. The rest of the time became the three-point contest and the dunk contest.

Liu Xiu did not continue to play after the official timeout. In the first half of the last quarter, he made 4 of 7 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, plus 3 of 3 free throws, and 13 points in the half quarter.

After the game, he played for 43 minutes, made 20 of 33 shots, including 5 of 11 three-pointers, plus 8 of 9 free throws, and 53 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 steals!

…

The long whistle sounded, and an All-Star game that made the fans on the scene ended.

Relying on Liu Xiu's 53 points, Nash's 10 points and 14 assists, Yao Ming's 5 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists and 5 blocks, Kobe's 16 points and 6 assists, Duncan's 8 points, 8 rebounds, 2 steals and 4 blocks, Flying Squirrel's 11 points, Stoudemire's 12 points... The Western Conference defeated the Eastern Conference 162-140 to win the victory!

In the All-Star Game, although there is a winner and a loss, the All-Star MVP, and the All-Stars want it. Before the game, they will think about ‘Will this year’ be me?’

But after the winner is really decided, most people won’t care too much.

Liu Xiu's popularity made James very unwilling. After the game, most players from both teams came up to congratulate or make fun of him.

Secretly scoring 30 points in the first half, amazed everyone. This operation... is really hard to copy!

Even my teammates didn’t expect that Liu Xiu could get so many points tonight!

Liu Xiu’s physical strength that can make Kobe spit out, everyone is really convinced tonight, and they are still running wildly in the final quarter!

Iverson, the physical monster, was amazed: "I really hope Hamilton can be the All-Star and compete with you who can get more points with this style of play."

But Iverson was a little curious, and even confused. Why did the Western All-Stars cooperate with Liu Xiu tonight to score?

The Eastern Army is definitely not losing to the star's strength tonight, but the Western Army has planned and premeditated tactics from the beginning. How can the Eastern Army without any preparation be able to play? There will be ghosts if you don't get beaten.

But why?

Not only Iverson, but other All-Stars in the Eastern Army are also quite puzzled. It is not that the warden should have threatened the All-Stars of the Western Army to pass the ball to him, right?

Suddenly, two people in the east lit up their eyes, one was the warden's former teammate Tianzun, and the other was... the warden's lifelong enemy in people's eyes - the little emperor James!

…

After a while, NBA President David Stern came to the court to present the MVP trophy.

Without any surprises, Liu Xiu, who won the first single game of 50+ in All-Star Game in All-Star Game, was awarded the Most Valuable Player in the 2005 Denver All-Star Game!
