Throughout February, the Thunder were still in a hot state, continuing their winning streak, and getting closer to breaking the record of 72 wins.

Although the Thunder also had a very chaotic three-pointer feel in these games, thanks to the team's excellent lineup depth, they finally won the game without any danger.

In the blink of an eye, it is getting closer and closer to the NBA All-Star weekend.

All teams are also looking forward to the upcoming All-Star Weekend, after all, All-Star Weekend is a watershed.

After the All-Star Weekend, each team will enter the late stage of the season, and the All-Star is the last indulgence for all playoff teams.

…………………

On February 21, the NBA All-Star Weekend officially arrived.

Although Yang Fan once again led the Thunder to the league first place this year, since he had served as the coach of the Western Conference All-Star last year, Yang Fan is destined to become a spectator this year, and there is basically nothing he has to do with.

And the Thunder did not participate in the draft this year's offseason, so even in the first day of the rookie challenge, only Curry and Danny Green participated.

This also led to Yang Fan's interest. In the end, he just slept in the hotel and played video games with Dimaxi when he woke up. It can be said that he would not leave the house.

In the end, Nas, who came back from the scene, told Yang Fan that the first-year rookie team won the game.

Even though Stephen Curry scored 42 points in the whole game, it was still difficult to stop John Wall, Cousins ​​and Griffin from joining forces to score 91 points offensive firepower.

As for the MVP of the Rookie Challenge, Cousins, who was given 33 points and 14 rebounds.

After the game, although the sophomore rookies lost the game, there was no sign of frustration from Curry's face.

After all, Curry is now a player who has seen the world, especially when he followed the team to win the championship in the first year of entering the league, which made Curry more stable.

So Curry naturally doesn't care about the win or loss of the rookie challenge.

Even if it weren't for the high voices of the fans, Curry would have wanted to sleep like Yang Fan, just to sleep in the hotel for a dark day.

Because during this long season, whether it is a player or a coach, lack of consciousness is always an indisputable fact.

…………………

On February 22, the second day of the All-Star Weekend, today will be a competition of skills, three-pointers and dunk contests.

Compared with yesterday's rookie match, these three events today have some relationship with the Thunder.

Among them, Durant participated in this year's three-point competition, Curry participated in this year's skills competition, and Ibaka participated in this year's dunk competition.

In fact, Curry was the one who wanted to participate in the three-point competition at the beginning, but Durant was the last one invited by the league.

With a casual mentality, Durant decided to barely bring back a three-point competition championship for the team.

Of course, this sentence was a shameful statement made by Durant before the game. As a result, after the three-point competition began, Durant was eliminated in the first round and only scored 6 points in the entire first round.

This made Stephen Curry on the sidelines very happy. After Durant got out of the game, he deliberately learned to play Durant's bragging before the game and laughed at him.

Durant just scratched his head awkwardly for Curry and Yang Fan's ridicule.

Because Durant suddenly realized that after leaving the Internet, he was indeed a little different from Ray Allen on the three-pointer...

In addition, in the next Skill Challenge, Curry beat Wall, Paul and Delhi Cross to win the Skills Championship.

Curry ran 34.1 seconds in the first round, and in the final, he even improved it to 28.6 seconds. He finally defeated Paul by chance and won the trophy in the skills competition.

As for the final dunk contest, Yang Fan had no hope of Ibaka bringing back a trophy.

After all, there are two great masters, Griffin and McGee, on this year's slam dunk contest.

Especially when Griffin performed a flying over the car and McGee completed a double-flying basketball hoop, Ibaka was destined to run with him in this year's dunk contest.

In fact, this is true. After the dunk contest, Griffin beat McGee to become the new dunk king with a 68% vote approval rating.

Even in the first two individual scores, McGee's 99 points was significantly higher than Griffin's 95 points.

But compared to McGee, Griffin's dunk move was obviously more popular among fans, so Griffin still beat McGee in the final vote and won the championship controversially.

……………………

On February 23, the last day of the All-Star Game will be held at Staples Arena.

This year's head coach of the Eastern Conference All-Star side is Thibodeau of the Bulls, and this West is Carlisle of the Mavericks.

In terms of All-Star starters, the West did not expect Yang Fan. In the end, three of the Thunder were selected as All-Star starters.

The three are Durant, Anthony and Yao Ming. As for the other two players in the Western Conference backcourt, they are Kobe from the Lakers and Paul from the Hornets.

Antoine Jamison was finally shortlisted as a substitute, completing the feat of being selected as an All-Star for three consecutive years.

At the same time, this means that a total of four players in the Thunder have been selected into the All-Star Game this year.

Although it is slightly worse than last year's five players selected at the same time, from the perspective of three All-Star starters, this year's Thunder will be more popular than last year.

In the eastern part, the Heat's Big Three were naturally selected without any suspense, and the Celtics' Big Four were also shortlisted again.

In the entire 12-player All-Star roster, as many as seven players from the Celtics and the Heat in the East were selected, which almost completed the monopoly.

I have to say, no wonder players want to join a team that can win the championship, because the benefits and popularity that can bring to the group are really enviable.

After the game began, both sides continued the tradition of the All-Star Games in previous years, which was to focus on the performance nature and did not use real swords and guns to compete.

Before this game started, Yang Fan specifically reminded several people not to keep taking action on the court for the sake of MVP.

After all, this is Los Angeles, a city with its own traffic. If you want to leave any bad impression on fans on such occasions, it will be completely unworthy of the gains.

As the game continued on the court, both sides did not exert any defensive pressure at all, and as the host of this game, Kobe naturally received more attention.

At the end of the half, Kobe contributed 25 points, while the Western Conference All-Stars also led the Eastern Conference by 11 points to end the first half.

After returning from the second half, everyone still focused on entertainment and there was no gradual rise in the future.

Finally, after the game ended, the Western Conference All-Stars defeated the Eastern Conference by 13 points. As for the MVP of the All-Star Game, it was won by the host Kobe.

Obviously, the Los Angeles sign has brought a lot of attention to Kobe, and in such occasions, no one is going to fight with Kobe to the death.

Even Yang Fan, who has always been in conflict with the Lakers, just let the players paddle quietly.

After all, what Yang Fan doesn't like is the Zen master, and this has nothing to do with Kobe.

Kobe scored a total of 37 points and 6 rebounds in the whole game, and when Paul continued to feed Kobe, Kobe played very comfortably.

The four Thunder were paddling together in this game, basically showing their faces, and they might not even sweat on the court.

Among them, Durant, who started the game, scored 14 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, Anthony scored 13 points, 7 rebounds, Yao Ming scored 4 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, and Jamison's 6 points and 1 steal from the bench.

…………………

After the game, Yang Fan directly brought everyone to a good meal in Los Angeles.

Of course, although Yang Fan was the one who paid for the treat, everyone here was actually richer than Yang Fan.

Especially Anthony, when Yang Fan ordered a relatively luxurious Western restaurant to prepare for a meal, the lobby manager in the store served two dishes as soon as possible.

And the whole person lowered his posture, looking so kind and friendly.

Just when Yang Fan thought this guy might have recognized him, he wanted to be polite.

The lobby manager walked directly to Anthony's position, and when he passed by Yang Fan, he said politely. "Sir, don't block the way."
Chapter completed!
