143 to 141.
After LeBron James scored this three-pointer, the Eastern All-Stars took the lead again.
His key goal also sent the fans into a frenzy.
Although this is New York's home court, many fans have already shouted "MVP". After Kobe Bryant, the former number one player in the league, failed to participate in the All-Star Game due to injury, LeBron James' dominance and appeal undoubtedly became the next successor in the league.
Maybe there are a lot of controversies about him, such as "teaming up" and other things that make fans complain crazily, but his appeal on the court is still not small.
Everyone knows that it is possible to win a championship if you get LeBron James, even if it requires a lot of money investment.
But the championship can never be won by just spending money. It is impossible to build a finals team just by spending money. Otherwise, there will not be some "taken advantage of" teams in the league.
Apart from being on the court, LeBron James's personal ethics off the court are hardly criticized. He is keen on charity and public welfare, and there has never been any scandal. He is married to his girlfriend who he has been with since high school. There have never been any rumors of marital discord over the years they have been together.
Including his attitude towards China is different.
Compared with some stars who only praise China when they are making money, LeBron James can at least stand up and express his position publicly on certain things.
This attitude is enough to show where he stands.
There were constant applause and cheers outside the court, while the game inside the court continued.
There are only 33 seconds left in the game.
Western Conference All-Star offense.
Stephen Curry advanced with the ball, but was intercepted as soon as he passed. Zhao Feiyang went up to help him cover, fending off the stalking Kyrie Irving.
Stephen Curry also seized the opportunity to sprint towards the half court. As soon as he passed the half court, he raised the basketball and shot.
boom.
The basketball hit the rim and bounced out.
Blake Griffin and Carmelo Anthony were fighting for a rebound under the basket. They jumped up at the same time and the basketball flew out.
Snapped.
Marc Gasol picked up the basketball from the wing.
Without hesitation, he jumped up again and smashed the ball towards the backboard.
boom.
The basketball still bounced out.
The rebound was taken away by Pau Gasol.
This time, Pau Gasol threw it directly into the hands of LeBron James. LeBron James got the basketball and went straight through the half court. He used his strong body to hit the basket and faced the two players all the way to the breakthrough. The ball was thrown out only in the penalty area.
"Are you going in?"
"If this goal is scored, the game is over..."
"There is not much time left..."
The fans at the scene exclaimed.
Everyone stood up and waited for the result of this attack.
boom.
When the basketball hit the backboard and bounced back, the fans' hearts were in their throats. However, the basketball soon spun around and rolled out from the left side.
This time the basketball fell into the hands of Marc Gasol.
After getting the ball, he glanced towards the court. Kyrie Irving was still competing with Stephen Curry, while Zhao Feiyang got rid of John Wall who was marking him and came to him.
Marc Gasol did not hesitate and passed the ball directly to Zhao Feiyang.
Zhao Feiyang, who got the basketball, glanced at the timer and saw that there were only 10 seconds left before the end of the game. At this time, he didn't have any thoughts, he just dribbled the ball towards the half court.
After reaching the top of the arc, he did not rush to take action, but signaled his teammates to all pull away.
Such a move caused the entire Madison Square Garden Arena to exclaim. Not only the fans, but also the host who was responsible for the commentary felt a little incredible.
"Is he going to play singles?"
"This is the All-Star Game... It seems to be a very bold decision, and I think it is very risky..."
"The one who defends him is John Wall. Although John Wall's defense is not very strong, it is not that easy to break through..."
The most excited ones are the Chinese fans watching the live broadcast on the other side of the ocean.
Compared with the surprise of the fans at the scene, the Chinese fans were extremely excited.
"Awesome! This special code is for the All-Star Game. Zhao Feiyang is so good, he dares to play singles in this situation..."
"Is this guy going to hit the buzzer-beater? Although I am his fan, if he makes the shot, I will definitely turn into a fan in the future... Who can insist on playing by himself in this kind of situation? How many can there be?”
"I will support him even if he can't make the shot. As a player, you have to be confident. If you can't make the shot, it's a matter of strength. But if you always think you can't beat it, that's a matter of mentality..."
On the field.
After Zhao Feiyang's singles stance was taken, John Wall was already very energetic.
The two stood one-on-one at the top of the arc, and the other players either kept a little distance from each other or stood still and watched the fun.
In short, at this moment, the eyes of basketball fans watching the All-Star Game all over the world are focused on Zhao Feiyang.
7......
6......
5......
The timer was about to reach zero, and Zhao Feiyang picked up the basketball and started doing cross steps. John Wall stretched out his hand in front of him, intending to disturb his sight.
Zhao Feiyang didn't use any complicated moves. When facing John Wall, he just stepped back and took action.
His movements were very skillful, without any hesitation.
At this moment, his eyes were only focused on the basket.
John Wall jumped up and rushed towards Zhao Feiyang with all his strength. The two met in mid-air. John Wall's hand almost touched the basketball thrown by Zhao Feiyang, but he still missed it just a little bit.
The moment the two landed, the eyes of fans all over the world were focused on the basketball in mid-air.
After a while.
Uh-huh.
The basketball fell steadily into the basket.
At the same time, there was the sound of the timer stopping.
144 to 143.
One point difference.
Zhao Feiyang used a last-minute three-pointer to kill the Eastern All-Stars and help his Western All-Stars win the final victory.
The whole audience burst into cheers.
Countless fans applauded and shouted for this wonderful scene.
Many players also took the initiative to applaud, such as LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson on the court.
Interestingly, James Harden also took the initiative to run over and fight with Zhao Feiyang, completely losing his arrogance towards Zhao Feiyang at the beginning.
"Good job man!"
"I hope we won't meet in the playoffs. I don't want to meet a perverted guy like you..."
James Harden smiled.
Zhao Feiyang also high-fived him in response.
The game officially ended. Zhao Feiyang scored 34 points, the highest score on the Western Conference All-Star team. However, Russell Westbrook tied with him and also scored 34 points.
There is not much difference between the two in terms of assists and rebounds. From this point of view, they feel quite evenly matched.
The only difference is that Zhao Feiyang saved the game with a buzzer beater.
This has also plunged the scene into speculation. Countless fans are looking forward to who the league officials will choose as the MVP of this All-Star Game.
The same is true for the Chinese fans on the other side of the ocean, and they have also become extremely nervous.
"This situation is difficult to handle! Westbrook seems to have an advantage if he has one more rebound... If the NBA uses this as a reason to select him, it would make sense..."
"Bullshit! Without Zhao Feiyang's decisive victory, the Western Conference would have lost. If the NBA did this, would they be scolded to death?"
"Is the NBA still afraid of being scolded? It's just that it's not liked by us Chinese fans! This is an American league, and it's not strange that they prefer Westbrook..."
