The competition continued, and the second grade tried their best to catch up, but the first grade always maintained the lead, and finally won the rookie challenge 141 to 132, successfully ending the past seven years, and the first grade has never been able to beat the embarrassment of the second grade.
Su Yang personally scored 40 points and 15 assists, plus 4 steals, 3 blocks and 6 rebounds. He won the MVP of the Rookie Challenge without any suspense. The key point is that he only played 26 minutes, and his efficiency was so high that he only made 3 turnovers.
Amidst the cheers of the audience, Su Yang went to the middle circle of the stadium to receive the award, and was interviewed by TNT reporters by the way.
Most of them were routine questions, such as the feeling of winning the award, the reasons for winning the award, etc., and the answers to each question were quite smooth.
But when it was the turn of the last question, the reporter asked abruptly: "We all know that you will participate in the All-Star Game as the champion of votes the day after tomorrow, and your opponents will be LeBron and Dwight. And Dwyane and others, teammates are Kobe, Duncan, Nowitzki and others, do you think you can stand out from the encirclement and win the MVP?"
After the reporter's voice fell, cheers and boos rang out in the arena at the same time, and the large central screen instantly transformed into multiple separate screens, while the cameras were aimed at LeBron, Kobe, Howard and others, and everyone had different expressions.
Su Yang thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "I have played against very good players like LeBron and Kobe before, and I know what abilities they have, so from my personal experience, I think the day after tomorrow All-Star Game , the strength of opponents will not become higher, and the cooperation of teammates will not become lower, because Stephen Curry, James Harden, and Westbrook, as well as Derrick Rose, Durant, etc., are all epoch-making players. Changed the game of basketball."
"As for whether I can stand out and win the MVP, I will not deliberately pursue it, let everything happen naturally."
After Su Yang finished speaking, there were cheers in the arena. Kobe took the lead in applauding.
Curry and Harden trotted into the arena and bumped shoulders with Su Yang, and Rose and Westbrook also came to high-five and interact.
Everyone chatted for a while, the Rookie Challenge officially came to an end, and each left the arena.
Back at the hotel, Su Yang received a call from the AJ headquarters, saying that it had only been half an hour since his personal sneakers were officially opened for pre-order, and the cumulative sales had reached one million US dollars. Some of them came from Chinese consumers who placed multiple orders in batches. Hundred pairs.
Su Yang thought to himself that he had met a scalper, so he hurriedly told the AJ headquarters to limit the number of purchases with the same IP and the same phone number, and don't let scalpers and shoe dealers buy most of the sneakers.
Just after hanging up the phone, Zheng Xiang sent a message, saying that he had sorted out the mainstream comments on his teammate's signature shoes and sneakers, and there were almost no negative comments. The red one enjoyed a high popularity and would definitely become the hottest style among the hottest styles.
Zheng Xiang also mentioned that the video of Su Yang forcibly carrying Gasol twice is spreading rapidly on social media.
Su Yang immediately logged on to Twitter and found that it was indeed a hot topic, and many media and players were discussing it.
O'Neal caught Gasol and criticized him fiercely, saying that a center can't push the guards, which is a great shame. No wonder Su Yang always clamored that the era of guards is coming. It turns out that he understands that the new generation of centers in the league are softies.
O'Neal's statement triggered more discussions. Many fans pointed out that during the opening period of the third quarter, Su Yang and Curry teamed up to play a 20-2 attack wave, which was almost equivalent to announcing that the inside defense had lost its historical role.
Barkley said that it's not that scary. He thinks that jump shots can't win the championship, because the defensive strength will be greatly improved in the playoffs. If Sai is serious about defending, Su Yang's outrageous three-pointers will all disappear. In basketball games, inside scoring will always be king.
Wade liked and retweeted Barkley, writing: I have applied to coach Stan Van Gundy, and I will defend Su Yang in the All-Star Game. I will fully demonstrate how to limit Su Yang who looks very new attack.
Seeing Wade's tweet, Su Yang was slightly surprised. He thought that there was nothing wrong with it. After thinking about it carefully, he guessed that it should be pure competition. After all, Wade is the kind of player who has a strong desire to win. Happy hunting.
After a quick scan, Su Yang also updated his tweet, saying that in the name of himself and AJ, he will donate [-] U.S. dollars for every three-pointer hit in the All-Star Game to support the development of basketball in remote areas of the United States.
The donation plan was formulated before, and it was carried out at the same time as the pre-sale of personal signature shoes. First, it was indeed a charity, and second, it was to build topics to increase publicity. The money was spent from AJ's marketing budget, and Su Yang was only responsible for playing.
The tweet was quickly retweeted. Pierce said with a smile that he would give up his defense if he met Su Yang in the race.
...
Early the next morning, Su Yang rushed to the airline arena to participate in the open training of the Western All-Stars.
When all the players arrived, Kobe led the team into the arena, each found a position and started shooting warm-ups.
The media caught everyone out and pulled the players out one by one for interviews. Su Yang was ranked behind Kobe, and the questions were still the same. He could answer them with a few common answers, and then returned to the court to continue shooting.
In about 10 minutes, Durant was the last to complete the interview and returned to the court a little awkwardly.Su Yang saw it, stepped forward and patted Durant on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Why, it's the first time to participate in the All-Stars, and you still don't get used to it?"
Durant hesitated for a while, entangled in the fact that he wanted to blow up Su Yang but failed to complete it. It is a bit embarrassing to talk to Su Yang now, but he thought that Su Yang had publicly praised him last night, so he still said: " Yes, how about you?"
Su Yang shrugged slightly: "I'm all right, tomorrow we'll join hands to blow up the eastern side."
"Why are you so confident?" Durant asked curiously, staring at Su Yang.
Su Yang chuckled: "Because we play pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, they have nothing to do. I will let you experience another way of playing basketball in NBA games. You don't have to shoot against the defense every time, or catch the ball and shoot with one step. .”
Durant nodded if he understood something, as if he understood something, but also as if he didn't understand it yet.Su Yang didn't explain too much. He patted him on the back, turned and walked away, talking to his Western teammates one by one, discussing how to better cooperate.
The training in the morning ended soon, and Su Yang went to the fan carnival in the afternoon. He sold more than 2000 pairs of his signature shoes on the spot, and took photos with the fans for three hours. His smiling expression almost couldn't be changed.
At six o'clock, he rushed to the route arena again to enjoy all kinds of games as a spectator.
The first thing to do is the long-range shooting star. The host represented Nowitzki’s team and won the championship with a time of 34.3 seconds. Nowitzki succeeded in the two mid-circle shots in the preliminaries and finals. .
In the skill challenge that followed, Nash beat Westbrook, Deron, and Jennings to win the championship.
When the three-point contest was held, Su Yang and Garnett bet on their respective teammates on the spot. The bet was [-] push-ups. As a result, Gordon was eliminated in the preliminaries, and Pierce won the championship. operate.
In the final slam dunk contest, Su Yang cooperated with DeRozan and helped DeRozan complete a crotch change and a back dunk with both hands, but Nate Robinson staged a dunk with a rebound and back to complete the lore.
With the end of the slam dunk contest, the most prestigious All-Star Game in history will follow one after another. Players from the Eastern and Western teams will compete in an NFL stadium that can accommodate 100000 people watching the game at the same time, and the tickets have already been sold out.
