9-0, the start of this rookie game was somewhat unexpected.

The second-year team, who thought they would dominate the game, were beaten to a pulp in the first place.

James is still very stable and seems to have everything under control.

But...he was actually a little panicked!

It's just that I just boasted about Haikou before the game, so now I have to hold back no matter how panicked I am.

If you are anxious now, is that not a slap in the face? How will Anthony see himself?

Can I still hang out in the future?

"I think those guys on the first-year team are serious." After sitting down, Anthony solemnly repeated what he just said to James.

The defensive intensity just now is really not the defensive intensity that should appear in an exhibition game.

When Wayne blocks his own shot, he doesn't release any water at all!

"I also think they are a little serious, but as a first grader, it is normal to overreact. Next, we will relax the rhythm of the game and let them get into the rhythm of performance." Wade nodded, admitting that the first grade

I appreciate the team's efforts today, but I don't think the first graders will really be so stubborn.

"Well, this year's rookies are so unruly! Next, let's let them know what the rookie competition is with a gorgeous performance!"

James and Wade sang along, making most people nod in agreement.

It is obvious that the fighting will of the second-year team is far less than that of the first-year team.

Except for Anthony, everyone else's desire to win is average.

James and Wade had promised Anthony to help him win, so they still didn't want to lose.

But Bosh, Haslem, Korver and others, they are really here to play.

Since we are here to play, do we need to worry about winning or losing?

The point is, who wants to work hard to become an All-Star?

It’s a rare weekend break, and you actually asked me to fight my opponent to death?

Isn't this nonsense?

At most, James and Wade just don't want to lose, but their desire to win is not too strong.

Not wanting to lose and wanting to win may sound like the same thing, but there is a huge difference between them.

Both of these guys are preparing to show off their talents in the All-Star Game, so it's hard to be too concerned about the Rookie Game.

Therefore, even though the first-year team was found to be playing somewhat seriously, the second-year team was still a little unmotivated.

Besides, most people think that in the All-Star Game, not to mention falling behind 0-9, even falling behind by more than ten points and then catching up is normal.

All in all, I'm still not in a hurry.

Anthony discovered... You guys are acting completely different now than when you agreed with me before the game!

Before the game, everyone said there was going to be a real confrontation, but now no one is willing to have a real confrontation.

Guagua feels bitter, the water in the NBA is deeper than the water in the streets of Baltimore.

But he was also trying to comfort himself. Maybe he was too nervous, or maybe the first-year guys were just a little excited because the game had just started.

It's just the All-Star Game, 0-9 is really nothing.

"Relax Mero, relax..."

After the timeout, Wade was replaced by Hinrich in the second grade. The All-Star Game is about equal participation, and everyone must be given a chance to perform.

On the first-year side, Iguodala replaced Okafor, and Wayne went to the fourth position.

On the first ball when the game restarted, Hinrich and James played a beautiful alley-oop.

This time, the first-year defense was indeed not that fierce.

Seeing that the team finally scored, Guagua breathed a sigh of relief.

The second-year team is showing off. It seems that I am really worrying too much?

After that, Wayne faced Bosh.

When Anthony defended Wayne just now, he was actually quite serious. It's just that the chasing three-pointer was so unexpected that Guagua didn't guard it.

But now, after switching to Bosh to defend Wayne, Wayne instantly feels that the pressure he is experiencing is much less.

Bosh really doesn't want to take serious defense!

Wayne was not polite to Bosh and quickly turned his back to break through and successfully walked to the basket.

In order to show that he was playing, Wayne deliberately did not dunk directly, but performed a lame dream dance under the basket.

Before nearly knocking himself out, Wayne tossed the ball toward the basket for two more points.

Although he lost points, Wayne's antics still made the second-year players on the bench laugh.

Yeah, yeah, this is the taste of the All-Star Game.

"Hahahaha, it seems that Xiao Wei's low-post footwork still needs to be strengthened. However, Xiao Wei did have more fun than Yao Ming in the All-Star Game. After all, he came from the American college basketball system and has integrated into this system.

This atmosphere is not a problem for him!"

Wayne himself smiled and spread his hands. The atmosphere of the game was fun, you played, I played, everyone played.

But... Wayne actually pocketed those two points just now!

This is the second step of Wayne's plan - pretending to be real!

Pretending to be having fun, in reality they continued to score quietly, trying their best to stabilize the current point difference.

Everyone has to use more entertaining tricks to score goals, and the defensive end should be a little looser first, just to play with the second graders.

At the end of the first half, when they all relax their vigilance, they will suddenly exert force like just now and take the opportunity to open up the score again!

In this way, throughout the first half, relying on the offensive from head to tail, the advantage that the first grade can gain is very considerable.

When Carlesimo heard Wayne telling him his plan in the locker room, he couldn't help but want to give him a standing ovation: "There are not many rookies as shady as you, so do it well."

After the second-grade team attacked, Guagua also made a pull-up layup after a breakthrough, showing off a little.

This time, as expected, Iguodala's defense against Guagua was not too tight, and Wayne did not suddenly rush in to block shots.

A smile finally appeared on Melon's face. Did these guys really relax?

The performance continued. Wayne once again faced Bosh with the ball and showed off his crotch from the outside.

This move won applause from the fans.

Post players dribbling and breaking through from the outside is a repertoire of almost every All-Star Game.

Ao Pang comes here several times every year.

However, Wayne was also able to break through with the ball in the regular season!

This goal seemed to be entertaining the fans, but in fact Wayne was serious about it.

He suddenly accelerated and passed by Bosh, but Bosh still only stretched out his hand in a ritual manner and did not try his best to stop him.

Then, Wayne went straight to the basket, and Haslem deliberately slowed down his defense against the basket.

With this emotional intelligence, no wonder he will become the leader of the Heat's locker room in the future.

Just like that, Wayne followed up his drunken cornfield dance with a short-distance Coke can gliding dunk.

After scoring the goal, Wayne couldn't help but shake his head, saying that the ball was not smashed well, it was not shown off, and the gliding distance was too short.

The substitute of the second-grade team also laughed. This Wayne was a bit interesting, and he was really having fun.

In this way, the rookie game slowly moved in the direction of "normal".

Both teams had almost no defense, and both teams played brilliantly offensively.

Alley-oops, fancy pull-ups, no-look passes, and long-range three-pointers are all there.

The fans were enjoying the performance of the new talents, but they did not notice that the first-year team maintained the lead from beginning to end!

As long as the second-year team gets closer to the score, the first-year team will immediately score goals to maintain the point difference.

In this way, the game came to the last two minutes of the first half.

At this time, Okafor reappears, and he will partner with Wayne in the paint.

As soon as he came up, Okafor approached Wayne with a serious face: "Stop playing, it's almost time!"

"Yeah, yeah, I know, I know, why are you in a hurry? There are still two minutes left, that's enough, it's enough for us to open up the score." Wayne said, looking up at the big screen.

At this time, the first grade led by 11 points, followed by the 03 grade.

Wayne clapped his hands, and then all the players on the first-year team seemed to have received the signal, and their smiles gradually disappeared.

From now on, the bayonet fight will begin!

Philadelphia's Jaylen Korver had a smile on his face when he caught the ball again.

In the first half, he had already scored 4 three-pointers, which was not a great performance.
