Today, the NBA officially kicked off on the 2022 All-Star Weekend, with the First Ton of Fame and The Star Race.
The participants in the Celebrity Game are all well-known people in the United States and have a good relationship with the NBA, but Chinese fans are not familiar with it, so there is nothing to see. At the Star Sharp Game, this year's NBA played a new trick, posing four teams, a total of 28 players, to play a 3-game mini tournament.
After some fierce competition, the team led by NBA star Rick Barry won two games and finally won the championship, while Barry's Detroit Pistons champion Cunningham won the Star Sharp Game MVP. In two games, Cunningham contributed 18 points and nine assists, scoring five points in the final game and hitting a crucial three-pointer, which was well deserved.
Cunningham wasn't the most impressive player of the game, though, with Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony stealing a lot of the limelight.
Assigned to Los Angeles Lakers star James Worthy's team, Cole Anthony performed well, frequently delivering wonderful passes and dunks. Facing Isaiah Thomas' side, Anthony found himself in a 48 draw with his opponents, with Isaiah's Bain still having two free throw chances.
So Anthony suddenly took off his pants when his opponent made a free throw, hoping to interfere with Bane. Unexpectedly, Bane was unmoved, and hit two free throws, directly eliminating Anthony and Worthy.
I have to say that although this year's NBA All-Star Star Competition has innovations, it is played in a chaotic manner, and the number of people is too large to remember the key points. Cole Anthony chose to take off his pants, which really won him a lot of attention and discussion heat, and he was still relatively smart.
