241. Whose home
Wu Dawei cut off the ball and completed the fast attack directly, which was to help the Eastern Army equalize the score.
95:95.
At this time, there are still 9 minutes of game time in the fourth quarter, and Wu Dawei has turned his data into 12 points, 6 steals, 6 assists and 1 block.
Even though the game has not ended, such data is enough to make Wu Dawei stand out in this game. But the key is that the game is still going on, which means that Wu Dawei has a great possibility to make his data even more terrifying!
Even continuing to break the record of the All-Star Game in the league or even break the record, it is unsure.
David Stern, who is the league president tonight, naturally came to Los Angeles and watched the game in person at the Stamps Center. After all, although the All-Star Game is just an entertainment game dedicated to fans, it has little to do with the league, but as the most important event in the mid-season, it is enough to allow the league president to fly from New York, the league office center to Los Angeles.
This year's All-Star Game was mediocre in the first half, and even the President kept watching the game with a frown. Although there were exciting scenes from time to time that made the fans in the stadium excited, in general, Stern did not like such a dull scene.
Until the second half, Stern frowned for most of the game and finally slowly stretched out. Stern was naturally extremely profound about Wu Dawei. In the first home match between the Cavaliers and the Heat this season, Wu Dawei's performance in the duel against LeBron James had already made Stern look at him with a look, and even moved his "mortal heart".
You know, people say that LeBron James is Stern's godson. Although it is a bit too much, it can also make people very clear. David Stern attaches great importance to James. The reason why David Stern values James so much is naturally because of James' outstanding personal ability. It is impossible for him to be his face...
So when Stern suddenly discovered that another player in his league was in vain, enough to compete with LeBron James, he was naturally overjoyed. Naturally, he began to remember Wu Dawei in his heart.
Tonight's third quarter game made Stern's impression of Wu Dawei even deeper. The data of 5 steals in a single quarter was enough to shock the world, but when Wu Dawei contributed his sixth steal in the fourth quarter, breaking the half-time steal record in the league All-Star Game, Stern smiled with some relief.
Because of the thunderous scenes of the audience, the league president understood that this is the game that fans want to see. It is not just an entertainment game that concerns victory or defeat, but also many factors beyond victory, which are worth exploring.
Although Stern does not like players with a striking personality very much, because it means that this player's maverickness is difficult to discipline. However, tonight, facing Wu Dawei's "spoken words" just now, David Stern is interested in exploring whether Wu Dawei can fulfill his "arrogant promise" at the end of the game.
Maybe this is why the fans are excited at this moment.
The score was tied by the opponent again, so Popovich naturally could not remain indifferent. Although the Spurs had fought with the Cavaliers only twice this season, Popovich did not realize that Wu Dawei would give him a headache like tonight in those two games.
This made Popovich think a lot. If Wu Dawei has some reliable teammates...
But this is not something Popovich needs to worry about now. Because there is still a game that requires him to have a headache. Now that his team is equalized in the fourth quarter, Popovich naturally has to make adjustments.
He asked for a timeout, and in the thunderous atmosphere of the audience, Popovich felt that the game seemed to be held in the East.
"Wu, you did a great job!"
Tom Thibodeau was still ecstatic toward Wu Dawei. It is not common for the head coach to take the initiative to face a player during the timeout. From this point of view, it can be seen that the importance of Wu Dawei's previous performance.
"Are you interested in coming to the Bulls?" Thibodeau then expressed his thoughts. In fact, the Bulls coach was drooling at Wu Dawei, who was fled to the fledgling at that time, a few months ago. Unfortunately, the Cavaliers were unwilling to let go at that time. At this time, when Wu Dawei was already star-studded and even shining in the game full of stars, Thibodeau knew that it had become even more difficult to get Wu Dawei from the Cavaliers.
However, he still couldn't help but send out an "invitation", which was naturally just a joke.
Wu Dawei slapped his teammates one by one with his high fives, and countless super stars passed by his eyes. The scene of their celebration at him made Wu Dawei feel like he was dreaming for a moment, and then he sat on a chair.
Thibodeau did not adjust the roster this time. Although he knew that Popovich requested a timeout this time, he would definitely choose to send Kobe and other super card players back to the court, but after all, the All-Star Game is different from previous games. Thibodeau has 12 people under his command who have the ability to change the situation of the game. In other words, the popularity of these 12 people may be very different, but their strength is not much different.
So, since this current lineup can equalize the score, Thibodeau is naturally willing to give them more time. After all, these stars are performing well and in good condition now.
After the timeout, the game continued. Sure enough, the Western Conference made adjustments in personnel. Chris Paul and Kevin Durant returned to the court. Deron Williams and Kevin Love were replaced.
In this way, after returning to the court, Wu Dawei's opponent was directly matched by Kevin Durant. Although Wu Dawei's grudges with LeBron James and Cameron Anthony have always been talked about.
But Durant and Wu Dawei are put together, which is also a showdown that people are willing to see. Although the two do not have very fierce grudges and are not rookies of the same level, they are currently representatives of the new generation of the league, and their same position is destined to be the kind of "enemies of life".
After the game restarted, the ball was in the hands of the Western Conference.
After Chris Paul took the ball through half the ball, Wu Dawei's previous "big words" were still in his ears, and Paul became very careful. He did not choose to cooperate with Kevin Durant, but instead made a pick-and-roll with Kevin Love at a high position and broke through the inside and scored.
95:97.
Although fans are interested in Wu Dawei's "bold words" and are excited, the Western Team stars, as opponents, have a very unified attitude towards this. Because if Wu Dawei wants to break the record, it means that he needs to constantly steal the ball from the Western Team stars, and the Western Team stars will naturally not be willing to bear the green leaves.
The West regained the lead advantage. But soon after the offense and defense transition, the Eastern Army caught up again. Wu Dawei ran actively in the frontcourt, allowing him to find a good opportunity in the inside. Lajo Rondo's straight pass was very penetrating.
However, when Wu Dawei got the ball near the paint area, the Western Army's restoration team also appeared in time. This prevented Wu Dawei from scoring and added another assist.
97:97, in the end, the score was completed by Chris Bosh after receiving Wu Dawei's pass from the inside.
The Eastern Army soon completed the catching up with the Western Army, and then the two sides were in a situation of going back and forth in the next two minutes.
This situation is a scene that both head coaches on both sides do not want to see. Naturally, the two teams began to change personnel more frequently.
Dwight Howard was the first player to be replaced by Tom Thibodeau, because Thibodeau knew very well that the team needed defense at this time, because they still maintained good firepower on the offensive end. LeBron James also replaced Chris Bosh and returned to the court; on the Western Conference side, Kobe Bryant and Tim Duncan were also re-drawn.
In the past two minutes, both sides brought the score to 110:110, and the Western Conference still had the ball. In the past two minutes, Wu Dawei, who was highly anticipated and paid great attention to the fans, did not perform well; instead, Kevin Durant had to score 5 points during this period.
"Hey, Wu. Aren't you going to break the record?"
When the Eastern Army was on the offensive end again, Ray Allen made a mid-range shot to tie the score. Wu Dawei ran back to the half. Kevin Durant, who ran to the Eastern Army's half, asked with a smile.
The two were not familiar with each other, and even had some entanglements when the two teams first met for the first time this season, so Wu Dawei knew that this guy was not caring about him. At this time, Chris Paul had already dribbled through half the game, while Kevin Durant ran to the bottom line.
However, just after Kevin Durant gave condolences to Wu Dawei, the Thunder star suddenly turned around and turned back to go online.
Durant's movements were extremely fast and sudden. Everyone said to express surprise, but Wu Dawei seemed to have some insight into this. The moment Durant ran to the line, Wu Dawei also turned back at the same time.
But at this time, Wu Dawei was already unable to catch up with Durant because Tim Duncan appeared on the road ahead. Kevin Durant had already run past Duncan, and Duncan obviously wanted to block Wu Dawei's pursuit.
However, Wu Dawei did not choose to follow Kevin Durant, so he squeezed over Tim Duncan, but chose to go around from the other side. Wu Dawei's speed did not slow down at all. He tried his best like a survivor who broke through the siege!
Just when people were still surprised by Wu Dawei's choice to "partition" with Kevin Durant, Chris Paul, who was originally at the top of the three-point line, passed the ball in the direction of Kevin Durant!
However, the ball just flew away from Paul's palm. It was walking along the trajectory and was suddenly cut off by Wu Dawei who jumped out of the crowd halfway!
An unexpected steal!
From the initial choice to "partition" with Kevin Durant, the unexpected situation was that Wu Dawei cut off the ball until now, but the situation on the court had already changed suddenly!
There were screams in the stadium again, and most people were overjoyed because Wu Dawei had raised his steals in this game to 7, which was only 1 away from the record held by Rick Barry!
"Oh~ Wu Dawei's seventh steal in the second half!" Charles Barkley continued to play the role of his number one Wu Dawei fan, snatching the DJ's microphone at the top of his lungs, shouting: "He has set a new half-time interception record in the league's All-Star Game history!"
The audience cheered and the Eastern Team stars sitting on the bench on the side of the court were also a little amazed at this, because now it is now the "bold words" of Wu Dawei. However, after only more than 2 minutes, Wu Dawei was just a short distance from the record, and the game time was as long as 6 minutes!
If people were lucky enough to break the record before, then at this moment, most people began to believe it!
There was a jubilant scene on the side of the court, but the court was still tense. After conceding the ball, the Western Team players would not think of the record-breaking, but the Eastern Team launched a counterattack!
The moment Chris Paul concedes the ball, he rushed to the frontcourt. He quickly approached Wu Dawei who successfully intercepted the ball. But Wu Dawei did not push the ball with the ball for too long. Facing Chris Paul, who is also a master of steals, Wu Dawei is still somewhat scared. His confidence in his ball control skills is far lower than his confidence in snatching the ball from others...
Wu Dawei quickly threw the ball into the frontcourt, and Rajo Rondo ran over the moment Wu Dawei intercepted the ball. At this time, he received Wu Dawei's lob. Then he easily made a layup in the frontcourt with a three-step layup to overtake the score for the Eastern Conference!
The first lead in this game was 112:110!
But people are more concerned about Wu Dawei's data at this moment. After the Eastern Army completed the reversal on the court, most people couldn't help but raise their heads and stared at the data on the big screen.
12 points, 7 steals, 8 assists, 1 block and 2 rebounds!
Wu Dawei is only one step away from the steal record in the All-Star Game, and the game time is 6 minutes left.
"It's so fucking crazy!"
Michael Beasley screamed in excitement, "He is really about to do it!"
Beasley stretched out his hand to Raflin, and at this time, even Bonnie Raflin, who had always been dignified and virtuous in public, couldn't help but be happy for Wu Dawei in his heart. Because before that, when Wu Dawei and Barkley's words were circulated by people, Raflin was a little worried and even dissatisfied with Wu Dawei's words and deeds.
Because this is completely contrary to the modest image that Raflin has formulated for Wu Dawei. But now, when Wu Dawei is really taking the most solid steps towards such a "arrogant words and deeds", Raflin can't help but feel incredible again. Even though she has already felt countless incredible scenes in Wu Dawei.
He is really as curious as a fan. Raflin looked at the court, and Wu Dawei, who was standing in the frontcourt, was celebrating with Rajo Rondo. He couldn't help but have a new view on the boy... and feelings.
Laflin is already a mature woman. She is no longer the kind of little girl who is still ignorant of everything. She doesn't even know what she wants. Therefore, she has experienced many experiences that make her understand what this feeling is.
People on the side of the court were still making Wu Dawei's seventh steal in the second half. When they felt the unusual surprise, the Western Team coach Popovich, who was always paying attention to the game on the side of the court, suddenly jumped up in anger. At the same time, the Eastern Team coach standing on the other side of the technical platform not far away, Tom Thibodeau jumped up.
However, the slightly different thing from Popovich is that Popovich was so angry that he was blushed and furious, while Tom Thibodeau jumped up with joy!
On the court, after receiving the pass from Wu Dawei, Rajo Rondo completed the first overtake of the Eastern Conference in this game. Then, he and Wu Dawei celebrated with him in the front court. At this time, the Western Conference did not request a timeout. Chris Paul, who was unable to catch up with the defense, served at the bottom line. After he took the ball from the referee, he threw the ball directly to Tim Duncan who came to pick up.
The ball drew an arc and flew towards the "Stone Buddha". Duncan opened his hand and thought to pass the ball back to Chris Paul because he could not do the job of dribbling the ball across the half.
But after waiting for a second, Duncan did not welcome the ball, because just as he was watching the ball being caught by himself, suddenly, a figure passed by Tim Duncan!
No one could react yet, and only heard Popovich's angry look flushed and roaring hysterically: "Be careful!"
Carefully pull everyone back to reality. When people saw Wu Dawei grabbing the ball and launching an attack on the paint area of the Western Army, they no longer knew how to describe their excitement at this moment.
Because everyone hadn't reacted yet, everyone was still immersed in Wu Dawei's seventh steal, and the eighth had already followed one after another!
"The eighth time! Wu Dawei tied the steal record set by Yurik Barry in 1975! God, this young man is transcending history!"
Barkley's roar instantly drowned in the deafening cheers at Stamps' center, screaming like crazy every day. Wu Dawei rushed to the Western Conference half with such cheers, and then he passed the ball to Rajo Rondo.
Rondo faced Chris Paul's defense and reciprocated Wu Dawei, and the Celtics point guard threw the ball into the air.
Then, Wu Dawei flew up in the paint area, and his right hand grabbed the ball in the air, and then the boiling atmosphere of the whole audience reached its peak!
Bang!
The dunk was deafening! It seemed like Pavarotti's high notes, shocking the world at this moment!
114:110! The Eastern Army expanded its leading advantage after the first time in the game!
At this moment, what people cheered for was Wu Dawei's eighth steal!
The first time, Kobe Bryant, who played more than ten years ago at the Stamps Center, felt that this was someone else's home court.
And that person was hanging on the basket, and the number 0 code on his jersey that was waving in the wind was about to be recorded in history at this moment!
Famous remains in history!
Chapter completed!
