Chapter 413 413. Blame the Spurs! (Digital Chapter)

At 7:30 in the evening, the Blazers played against the Spurs at home.

Trail Blazers starters: Payton, Liu Xiu, Raheem, Randolph, Kwame Brown.

Spurs starting: Parker, Ginobili, Bowen, Horry, Nesterovic.

Kwame Brown wins the jump ball, Liu Xiu advances to the frontcourt and uses Kwame Brown to cover, Horry, who is forced to switch defenses, enters the inside line, passes the ball to Raheem, and Raheem smashes the ball through Nesterovic Into the basket!

Positive and irritable!

Duncan on the sidelines was expressionless, thinking in his heart: Raheem is behind the dunk, why is the parallel importer staring at me?No, what Rahim dunked wasn't the parallel champion, but our team's center forward!

When it came time for the Spurs to attack, Parker advanced to the frontcourt and started to accelerate as soon as he passed the middle circle. He was a passionate sports car and went forward... Liu Xiu decisively moved in the direction where Parker broke through, and Parker changed direction and moved to the other side... Liu Xiu Xiu followed Parker's footsteps with a lateral movement faster than that just now!Parker could only go off the assembly line and rush forward under the defense of Liu Xiu.

This time Parker was already prepared. Although he didn't believe this fact, the fact was that he couldn't pass Liu Xiu purely by speed... But to avoid being blocked by the flanking attack, he was prepared for the target, rushed to close range and hit Kwame- Brown makes a quick floater before jumping out, avoiding a Kwame Brown block...but misses.

Parker expected his teammates to grab offensive rebounds and failed. Both Horry and Nesterovic couldn't grab Randolph.

Parker began to suffer again.

Liu Xiu, who copied Peyton's upgraded version of "blocking flow", completely defeated Parker, who is not yet skilled enough;

Ginobili's recent performance has been quite satisfactory, just like an ordinary star in his early 80s. He averaged 14 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists last month, and it's about the same tonight;
The Spurs have no independent offensive ability in the three frontcourts...

In the first half of the first quarter, Liu Xiu led the team to a wave of 12 to 7 and entered the official timeout!

Without Duncan, the Spurs worked in addition to pressing the rhythm, and the rest were blown away by the Trail Blazers!

But the Spurs are the Spurs after all. When the official came back, the Spurs sent Udry, Brent Barry, Bowen, Malik Rose, and Tony Musenberg to the Trail Blazers. Playing back and forth, relying on Glenn Robinson, who played in the final rotation, hit a three-pointer at the buzzer, the Spurs scored 13 to 12 in the second half, narrowing the difference by 1 point.

24 to 20, the Trail Blazers lead the Spurs by 4 points and enter the intermission!
...

If Duncan plays the game, the Spurs have a high probability of ending the Trail Blazers' 9-game winning streak tonight!
but……

Blazers 10-game winning streak, none of my business? — Gregg Popovich.

The Trail Blazers are in great shape recently!

The game with the Nuggets the day before yesterday was almost full of sparks, and I feel more irritable tonight than that night.

Their recent state of the Spurs is also on the line. At the end of the middle of the season, Ginobili's physical pressure is too great to show up. Recently, his performance has been mediocre. The Spurs lost the X factor, but it also made them The status is always online, stable and powerful.

Playing against the Trail Blazers, the Spurs don't really need Ginobili to explode, especially after the players who hugged their thighs in the summer have almost run in as the season progresses, they don't need it much.

After the disbandment of the OK combination, the Spurs became the number one seed in the Western Conference, and there were a lot of players who hugged their thighs. Brent Barry cut his salary and signed the Spurs naked.

In order to renew the rookie contract for the Spurs, Ginobili, who has only two years without bird rights, and to help the Spurs sign Brent Barry... Robert Horry cut his salary by $340 million to $110 million. The contract was renewed for one year; Bowen also cut his salary and signed a long-term contract with a starting salary of $1 million.

And use this to introduce role players such as Tony Musenberg and Glenn Robinson, and the depth of the lineup is far beyond the previous two championship seasons.

So when Ginobili is not showing off or cheating, they have a higher probability of defeating the Trail Blazers, even if it is the Trail Blazers with a full 9-game winning streak.

After all, Ginobili was really cheated when he was cheated. This season, he played 5 games in which the number of shots was less than or equal to 1. This season, he played 5 games, accounting for 1/9 of his games.

but!At this stage, head-to-head with the Trail Blazers... Popovich said he was discouraged.

随着赛季深入，邓肯的个人表现愈发不可思议——赛季至今他的个人效率比01-02赛季和02-03赛季两连MVP的时候还要高一点点，仅次于03-04赛季的全盛阶段。

There is a simple but intuitive statistic. Last season, Duncan made 38.6% of his mid-range shots. So far this season, he has hit 41.7%. Last season, his two-point shooting percentage was 37.2%. Gradually improve from the beginning to the present!Looks like it's not the limit yet!

Before, Duncan always had a hard time playing against Yao Ming, Kwame Brown, O'Neal and other insiders, but this season is obviously easier. Moreover, since Duncan entered the NBA for the first time in 8 seasons, he played against O'Neal for the first time. Obvious advantage!

It's not that he hasn't won against O'Neal before, and it's not that he didn't have a game with better statistics than O'Neal. In the past, he tried his best to deal with O'Neal, but now it has become a headache for O'Neal to deal with him.

It may be related to O'Neal's loss of the guard who can pass the ball to the center most, but the core reason must be that Duncan has changed from a super insider with close-range lethality second only to Shark Yao to a floor skill flow that can be inside and outside.

Halfway through the season, some experts analyzed that if Duncan's attendance this season can reach the bottom line for the selection of the best team, he will not be able to run in the double first team.

The reason why there is such an analysis, and the reason why Popovich is afraid to face the Trail Blazers who are full at this stage, is because Duncan has been absent 9 times so far this season!The absences accounted for 45/1 of the 4 games the Spurs have played!

Duncan practiced hard in the long-range shot in the summer, improved his style of play according to his actual situation, maintained his own dominance, and maintained his own performance on the court, but he could not avoid the continuous invasion of plantar fasciitis and his absence due to injury.

Popovich really didn't expect that Duncan could adjust well after suffering from plantar fasciitis, an injury that ruined his sports career!

What kills players with this injury isn't how 'hard' it is, it's not as straightforward as a fracture, ligament or meniscus or Achilles tendon rupture, it's manageable and healable, it's the effect that makes a player feel better when he's injured The athletic ability is destroyed during the illness, so that players who rely on physical fitness to play do not know how to play during or after the injury.

Even if this player with good physical fitness has good skills, his skills must be supported by his athletic ability. No player with excellent explosive power and excellent bullet speed will choose to abandon the advantage of physical fitness and have to say "I don't want to When physical fitness flows, don't rely on the body'.

Duncan's previous style of play also relied heavily on physical fitness, which can be regarded as a model of the combination of physical fitness and technology.

Popovich is very excited that Duncan can adjust so quickly. From his point of view, Duncan can fuck for at least another 5 years!
That being the case, of course it is necessary to protect Duncan, who is struggling against injuries.

At the end of the middle of the season, the most tiring stage of a season, Popovich dare not take this risk to go head-to-head with the best team in the middle of the season.

In a strong matchup, the leading star is not allowed to play. This leading star is still an All-Star starter... For Duncan, Popovich is true love.

As long as this sullen guy doesn't sneak into his office to drink his red wine.

...

In the second half of the first quarter, the Spurs showed the depth and stability of their lineup, but Duncan couldn't play, and the stability of the Spurs was false.

In the second quarter, facing the Spurs' defensive strategy of blocking three-pointers and shrinking the basket, the Trail Blazers also became ruthless, and went directly to hand-to-hand combat to fill up the confrontation!

This gave the Spurs a ruthless blow. Without the most stable scoring point, the only thing they can point to is Glenn Robinson who came to hug his thigh!
The atmosphere of the devil's home court in the Rose Garden Arena also began to take effect at this time.

When the false stability of the Spurs was still maintained, the frantic atmosphere on the scene had little effect on them, but after the crazy hand-to-hand combat in the second quarter made the Spurs players think 'we can't do without Duncan', the atmosphere on the scene changed. The effect is obvious.

Although the Trail Blazers only scored 16 points in the second quarter, they prevented the Spurs from only scoring 13 points!
After halftime, the Trail Blazers led the Spurs by 40 points 33 to 7 and entered the intermission!
If they can win, Popovich definitely wants to win. They are currently in the 5-game winning streak. If they lose to the Trail Blazers, they will fall to third in the West.

In the second half of the first quarter, seeing the players holding back the situation, Popovich felt hopeful!
As long as you bite the score tightly, you can still look forward to the sheath of the demon knife in the end. Although the demon knife has not been unsheathed for a long time, it is still possible to look forward to it.

But who knew the Trail Blazers could do such a great job!Take advantage of Duncan's absence to fight iron and blood!

This Popovich has nothing to do, he can only slam hard, and then he is hanged...

In the third quarter, the Trail Blazers continued their iron-blooded tactics, scoring 21 to 17 in a single quarter, leading the Spurs 61 to 50 by 11 points and entering the final quarter.

In the final quarter, Popovich asked Parker, Ginobili, and Glenn Robinson to go all out. As a result, only Glenn Robinson completed the first time in the Spurs career. The big dog scored 8 points in the final quarter and completed the game. Scored 20 points in a single game for the first time in the Spurs' career.

末节开拓者队表现稳健，兰多夫靠着单节4个进攻篮板球拿到6分2助攻，帮助开拓者队打出了19比18的比分。

最终，靠着兰多夫的24分17板3助攻、刘秀的17分6板6助攻5抢断1盖帽、佩顿的5分3助攻、夸梅-布朗的6分12板1抢断7盖帽、小飞鼠的7分3助攻、拉希姆的8分7板1助攻1抢断1盖帽……开拓者队以80比68击败马刺队！
The most dazzling part of the Trail Blazers tonight is not the 24+17 butcher, nor the 4 times 5 warden, nor the self-sacrificing glove, flying squirrel, and bishop, but the parallel import champion!

Kwame Brown was extremely irritable tonight, blocking more shots than scoring!

The Spurs didn't even score 70 points, and Kwame Brown was half to blame.

Playing 36 minutes and getting 5 fouls requires careful attention, but this is just a flaw, and it does not affect Kwame Brown being selected as the best player in the game by the court tonight. After the game, he was invited by the court to accept a post-match interview .

Just like Yao Ming, when Yao Ming first entered the NBA, Chaoting TV wanted to interview him every day, but when he gained a firm foothold, Chaoting TV began to focus on interviewing people around him, trying to create the Yao Ming they want the Chinese people to see. The living environment of the NBA is often reported in an exaggerated way, which makes the Chinese people have an incomprehensible pursuit of Mosaic for the American basketball circle.

But in this time and space, Yao Ming has not yet fully played in the second grade, and there is Liu Xiu, an outside supernova who won the All-Star vote in his rookie season, was selected to the best team, and led the team to win the Olympic medal after his rookie season. A lot has changed.

Some media in China will use the phrase "Yao Ming is leading the team to compete for the championship seat" to describe the Rockets competing for the seventh and eighth spots in the Western Conference. Official media such as Chaoting TV and Xinhua News Agency have rarely used such words and phrases.

It's just that the same thing has completely different effects on different people. Yao Ming's side is under tremendous pressure, but on Liu Xiu's side... Kwame Brown heard 'champion favorite' It was quite exciting to be called this name!

In the United States, the Heat with O'Neal and the Pistons with Carter and Ben Wallace are not the "championship favorites" in the media. Only teams that have won the championship and continue to be strong in the finals can be described as 'championship favorites'.

When Liu Xiu's teammates heard this title, they were more motivated than pressured!
...

Kwame Brown was being interviewed. Liu Xiu and his teammates celebrated, waved and interacted with the fans, and then left the stadium. While walking, he watched the task completion prompt when the whistle sounded for the end of the game.

The Trail Blazers only need to play against the Spurs 3 times this season, and they have won twice now. In the past five seasons, they have played against the Spurs in the regular season, and they have won the game for the first time. The mission 'Silver White Fear' has been completed. , Liu Xiu's simulated training section added 'Eurostep training method (excellent) (Manu Ginobili version)'.

Winning 10 consecutive victories, the task of 'Hot Winter' is completed, and 'Specified Attribute +1' is achieved, this task is not all over yet, when the winning streak is ended, the healing value will be rewarded according to the final winning streak.

There is a direction to continue to strengthen the Eurostep!Liu Xiu quickly browsed through the training content, feeling inexplicably regretful, it wasn't that there was something wrong with the training method, but that it was just an ordinary training method, and had nothing to do with the characteristics of the Demon Sword.

But this is also normal, the 'demon' is Ginobili's characteristic, not the Eurostep, his Eurostep is only the Eurostep, but his application method is more flamboyant than other people's Eurostep.

Attribute +1, he chose to bounce without hesitation.

In fact, he has two strength +1 cards, but for him now, speed, bounce, and stamina are the most preferred. Both speed and stamina have reached the top, and he needs advanced attribute cards. He doesn't have any attribute cards for speed and stamina. Definitely choose Bounce, when this task is triggered, he has already decided to choose Bounce after the task is completed, it will bring improvement immediately.

With the 'Little Overlord's Knee Pads', if he can reach the top in jumping, his bullet speed will also reach the top.

It will not be like a certain elementary school student in the future, who has a top or even close to the top jumping height, but the bullet speed is only at the middle and lower level...

As for the failure of the task, it does not prevent him from making a good decision at that time.

Seeing that the system prompts that the bounce has increased to 87, Liu Xiu is in a better mood.

During the game, I was extremely irritable, and I had to work harder to prevent it, because the pre-match preparations were wasted.

It's nothing in itself that Duncan doesn't play. In the stage of hitting the winning streak, Duncan doesn't play, which is beneficial to their Trail Blazers.

But it was only before the game that they knew that Duncan would not play. The Trail Blazers players who had been preparing for the game against Duncan were naturally very irritable. They would rather not score themselves than defend the Spurs.

After limiting the opponent's score to less than 70 points and venting the emotions, the negative emotions have been emptied.

It's just a regular season, and they won. Who has nothing to worry about.

At this time, Little Flying Squirrel walked into the players' tunnel together and said to Liu Xiu: "Warden, if Duncan doesn't fight, it's really meaningless to win."

Liu Xiuying replied: "That's right, the next time we play against them, we will hit them again and sweep them! I hope Duncan won't be too scared to play again."

Just finished bragging, 'retribution' came.

"A man of lofty ideals does not drink the water from a stolen spring, a humble man does not receive food from a cheap source, and the host disdains to take advantage of Tim Duncan's absence... The series of missions of the rose in full bloom: Breaking free from the silver-white fear can be triggered by an optional advanced goal..."

'屮!Can I crumb? !I'm so disgusted!Very crumbs!Why don't I just say hello? '

……

……

The Spurs did not announce Duncan's absence in advance, and watching Duncan in a suit before the game, the Fox Sports directors who broadcast the Spurs and Trail Blazers in North America scolded the street.

Originally, the ratings of the Spurs games were low, and even Duncan couldn't beat the Spurs, so what is there to watch?

In the end, I didn't expect the Trail Blazers to really make the game interesting!

If the Big Dog hadn't scored two three-pointers in the second quarter, the Spurs might not have scored in double figures in a single quarter!
Other teams' failure to score in double figures in a single quarter will affect the ratings, but the Spurs' failure to score in double figures in a single quarter is definitely something to watch and a gratifying scene.

In this game with an ultra-low ratings of less than 200 million paid viewers at the beginning, the total number of paid viewers in the end reached more than 891 million times!
In the middle of the season, when the NFL playoffs are in full swing, this is a very good rating.

Although the live broadcast fee of a game is not very expensive, it does not mean that every sports fan is willing to pay to watch multiple games, especially the game of the Spurs, a ratings killer team.

I used to watch the Spurs lower the scores of other teams, and finally saw that the Spurs were restricted to score less than 70 points!The ratings and popularity after the game were higher than expected. The major TV stations were more active in reporting negative news about the Trail Blazers and more actively broadcasting the Trail Blazers games.

The Prison team took advantage of Duncan's absence to abuse the Spurs; the Spurs just let Duncan take turns to avoid facing the hot Trail Blazers, disrespecting the fans; The team rushed to the second place in the Western Conference; the Prison team was lucky to win 10 consecutive victories... These are not different reporting angles from multiple media, but multiple news from the same media website...

Although the ratings and topics were higher than expected, major media still complained to NBA officials.

In the end, on February 2th, the league gave the major TV stations an explanation-a fine of $4 to the Spurs for basketball reasons, which is the highest standard penalty in this regard under the pre-emptive rules.

As a result, the media has another topic to hype.

It doesn't matter whether the Spurs are punished or not, it is important to have a topic.

The media treatment of the Spurs is actually no better than that of the Trail Blazers. If it weren’t for the superstar Duncan, Bowen’s actions would probably have the same public opinion treatment as the Bad Boys back then. .

Seeing the Spurs being punished, Liu Xiu felt very happy!
As for Popovich's rest of Duncan's impact on him...in fact, no, it is definitely not a negative impact to make winning easier, and he is still to blame for the troublesome situation.

But he can piss off the Spurs...

"Break free from silvery fear:
Advanced goal: The host needs to lead the team to sweep the Spurs in the 2004-2005 regular season.

Reward: The Ginobili version of the Eurostep training method has been upgraded from the excellent level (up to 80) to the top level (up to 90).

Failure penalty: Ginobili's Eurostep training method has been removed from the simulation training section. "

Now Liu Xiu has obtained Ginobili’s version of the Eurostep training method. Yesterday’s rest day, the team did not arrange training. Liu Xiu did not do anything related to basketball training. In addition to the basic shooting simulation training in the evening, other simulation training time All put into Eurostep training.

However, the Eurostep is a high-level technique that combines multiple skills. The next time we play against the Spurs is next month. It will take a full month and a half. It is absolutely impossible to improve from 70 to 80 in this time. The training method of Nobili's version is not "practice from 70", but to grind the technical details from scratch. Of course, it will be much faster than new learning, but it still takes a certain amount of time...

To put it simply, this task must be completed, otherwise the road of continuing to develop the Eurostep from Ginobili's Eurostep training method will be blocked.

Moreover, it is too tempting to upgrade from an excellent level of training method to the top level. From previous experience, no matter how suitable the training method is, it is difficult to reach the theoretical training limit. It is estimated that the excellent level of training method can reach 77 or 78 Originally, this task could be refused to start, but Liu Xiu chose to give it a go.

This still does not prevent Liu Xiu from venting his anger on the Spurs...

And, next, he felt that it was right to vent his anger!

...

At 4 pm on the 8th, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Dallas Mavericks at home.

The Trail Blazers' starting lineup remained the same, and the Mavericks sent Terry, Finley, Josh Howard, Nowitzki, and Ratliff's starting lineup.

Although the coach of the Mavericks is still the old Nelson, after entering 2005, the coach has actually become Avery Johnson.

The coaching styles of the two are completely different. When Nelson was coaching, he paid attention to the flow of the ball. In the first two months of the game, the Mavericks averaged 23.9 assists per game, but last month, the Mavericks averaged only 15 assists per game in 18.2 games. It's a little better when the general coaches...

The offense of the Mavericks has become extremely simple. In singles, singles, or singles, the Mavericks averaged 99 points per game in the first two months, but in January, the Mavericks averaged only 1 points per game. The average is 93.4 points, but the net difference has become higher!

After the game started, the Mavericks started the mode of slamming defense.

The Trail Blazers had a three-quarter defense against the Spurs in the last game. They only scored 17 points in the first quarter, and only 15 points in the second quarter. The Mavericks, on the other hand, relied on singles to score goals in the first quarter. With 22 points and 23 points in the second quarter, the Mavericks led the Trail Blazers by 45 points 32 to 13 at halftime!
Finally, in the third quarter, Liu Xiu got up and made 9 of 5 shots in a single quarter, plus 3 of 2 free throws. He scored 12 points and 2 assists in a single quarter, helping the Blazers score 24 points in a single quarter.

In this quarter, the Trail Blazers also did better defense than in the first half, limiting the Mavericks to only 20 points in a single quarter.

Relying on Liu Xiu's personal scoring and team defense, the Trail Blazers narrowed the point difference to 9 points at the end of the three quarters, trailing 56 to 65.

After Liu Xiu finished the third quarter, he encountered the Mavericks' key defense, but the Trail Blazers were not the only one who could run wild outside Liu Xiu. Flying Mouse made 10 of 5 shots in the final quarter, including 5 of 3 three-pointers and 2 of 2 free throws. Scored 15 points and 3 assists in a single quarter, led the Trail Blazers to 32 points in a single quarter, and overwhelmed the Mavericks' defense!
However, the Mavericks also have two explosive scorers - the Jets and the Silver Horn!
诺维斯基末节6投4中其中三分球2中2拿到10分、特里单节7投4中外加2中2的罚球拿到10分，两人携手率队单节拿到30分！
At 10:26 p.m., the final whistle blew.

靠着诺维斯基的24分9板2助攻、特里的22分8助攻、拉特利夫的6分7板4盖帽、约什-霍华德的16分11板……小牛队通过防守大战，以95比88险胜开拓者队，终结了开拓者队的10连胜！

...

10连胜被终结，还真就得怪与马刺队的那场比赛，影响到了开拓者队比赛上半场的进攻节奏，刘秀的29分、兰多夫的15分15板、小飞鼠的22分4助攻成了无用功。

It must be a sad thing to end the winning streak.

But Liu Xiu felt that his teammates became more relaxed!
At another time point, if it is a winning streak in the opening stage, then for sure, just rush.

But at this stage, although the winning streak boosts morale, they may not think too much during the impact, but at the end, it is inevitable that they will involuntarily feel "relieved".

Although the winning streak is happy, it is also stressful, which will definitely be magnified in the middle of the season.

In fact, Liu Xiu himself is the same. He is not physically tired, but he is still under pressure. Seeing the end of the "Hot Winter" and the reward of 10 consecutive victories with a total of 1W healing value, it is a bit regretful, but actually quite happy of.

The 10-game winning streak is already the longest winning streak this season and the longest winning streak since he entered the NBA!
It was night, and Liu Xiu entered the simulation training mode. After his mind was clear, he simply reviewed the match against the Mavericks from the perspective of the game, and felt that the Mavericks changed their style of play really well!

Compared with the last match, the defense has soared!Really bring out the defensive strength of Ratliff, Josh Howard, Dampier, Daniels, Stackhouse, Bradley, Alan Henderson...etc.

The offensive end is easier to play, so that role players can devote more energy to defense. It is really good when the star is strong enough!
It's not wrong to lose, the Mavericks in the era of the little general are very strong!Let Liu Xiu be full of anticipation for the next fight.

……

……

The wonderful 6 consecutive masters are over!
连续6个主场5胜1负，战绩来到了35胜11负，开拓者队这波连续主场的战绩得到了一致称赞。

Before the start of the 6-game series, the Trail Blazers themselves did not expect to get 5 wins and 1 loss, and they lost the last game.

only……

On the second morning of the game against the Mavericks, Liu Xiu saw that the news coverage of their 10-game winning streak ended was higher than when they won their 10-game winning streak, and she really got used to it.

But girls, especially young girls, are not so easy to get used to.

Qing'er and Anne-Hathaway comforted each other not to be angry after seeing the news.

Qing'er said: "Annie, it's okay, when we win the championship in the future, they will have nothing to say!"

Anne-Hathaway nodded again and again. Before she met Liu Xiu, she didn't understand those sports fans arguing and getting angry over a sport. Now, as a family member, she fell in love with watching Liu Xiu play, so she can understand...

Liu Xiu replied warmly after hearing the words: "Yes, don't worry, after we win the championship, they will say that our championship was paid for with money, and they will even say that the Spurs don't pay the luxury tax. A truly great team is one that wins championships.”

Anne-Hathaway and Qing Er, who were looking forward to the beautiful picture of winning the championship in the future, were healed at this moment. They looked at each other and saw the same words written in each other's eyes-hit him!
Liu Xiu sensed the danger and ran away resolutely. The three of them chased each other inside and outside the house. They had so much fun that they forgot what they were chasing after...

...

After 6 consecutive home games, the Trail Blazers got a two-day rest period. On the 5th, today is the same as before, purely rest, and set off for the away game tomorrow.

Near noon, Liu Xiu's family gathered in the living room to watch the NBA live broadcast on the US cable sports channel. As of 2:3 noon on February 12, the All-Star starting voting has ended, and the results of the All-Star starting voting will be announced at noon today !
The All-Star starter is sure to win. When the votes for the second stage were announced, Liu Xiu was much higher than the No.2 Kobe.

What everyone cares about is whether Liu Xiu can win the All-Star ticket.

Everyone in Liu Xiu's family paid different attention to it. His son and daughter were the least concerned, and they were sleeping soundly.

What I care about the most is not Liu Xiu, the person involved, or even Anne-Hathaway and Qing Er, who have talked about this topic the most these days, but the one who turned on the TV at 11 o'clock after the show started after 10 o'clock Liu Xiu's father...

After the live broadcast started, the All-Star debut was not announced at the beginning, but the venue of this year's All-Star Weekend-Denver was introduced.

Immediately afterwards, the list of the All-Star rookie game will be announced.

First-year team: JR-Smith, Luol Deng, Ben Gordon, Devin Harris, Howard, Iguodala, Al Jefferson, Josh Smith, Udry, Emeka- Okafor was unable to participate in the rookie game because of an elbow injury, and Al Jefferson was selected as an alternate.

Second-year team: Liu Xiu, Wade, Hinrich, Anthony, James, Josh - Howard, Haslem, Bosh, Milicic.

"Milicic?" Liu Xiu was a little surprised when he saw this name. He had forgotten that the Pistons sent the Raptors to the No. They've all been played.

Qing'er was about to use her knowledge of the football master, but her uncle, the old football master, spoke first: "The Pistons delayed Milicic for a year! After he was traded to the Raptors this year, he averaged He can score 21 points, 8.6 rebounds and 6.3 blocks in 2.1 minutes. Compared with Kirilenko and Camby, his blocking efficiency is not bad. He is still 4 months away from turning 20. His body still has room to grow. I think he will become Dayao's strongest opponent in the future..."

Immediately after that, the list of games for the comprehensive event day will be announced.

Three-point contest: Korver, Ray Allen, Joe Johnson, Peja, Flying Squirrel, Radmanovic, Lewis, Arenas.

Liu Xiu's father was full of praise for this list: "This is called a three-point contest. Unfortunately, Miller withdrew from the competition. I really want to know who is the strongest, Allen or Miller..."

Slam Dunk Contest: Stoudemire, Chris Anderson, JR-Smith, Joe Smith.

This slam dunk contest list is ignored by everyone...

Skills Challenge: Nash, Boykins, Ridnour, Arenas.

This game has caused everyone to discuss who is the player with the best skills, and everyone has different opinions.

Liu Xiu's father, who has been watching the games coached by Zhang since Liu Xiu entered the NBA, thinks that Kobe is the best in the world.

My aunt, a native of Syracuse, thinks it's Anthony, while my uncle likes Nash better.

Qing'er said that her brother is invincible in the world.

In the end, the topic really turned to Liu Xiu. His speed of technological progress has always attracted attention. The family members think that Liu Xiu can really learn a skill just by looking at it casually and practicing it casually... …

Liu Xiu's father asked expectantly: "Xiu'er, do you plan to participate in the skills challenge?"

This look reminded Liu Xiu of his father's eyes shining when he came back with the best of the month trophy a few days ago.

Co-authored by my dad is a trophy collector?
Liu Xiu responded, "I might win a skill challenge champion in the future."

This answer made Liu Xiu's father show a satisfied expression.

This year's comprehensive event day has one more game - Shooting Star Challenge.

There are a total of four teams participating, and each team consists of an active NBA player, a WNBA player and an NBA legend.

This game was called a "surprise game" by the vice president of NBA jokes. Only four captains have been announced so far, Luke Walton of the Lakers, Marion of the Suns, Hamilton of the Pistons, and Andre of the Nuggets. miller.

After the announcement of the captain's list for this game, Liu Xiu's family members were discussing who would be famous. They were not familiar with WNBA stars. When talking about this, it became more WNBA players than anyone knew.

And Liu Xiu... "Do you think Walton will ask his dad to play with him? That's interesting. Walton represents the Lakers, and his dad played for the Clippers and Celtics."

Liu Xiu's family was speechless.

They all want to know what is growing in Liu Xiu's head. Although the rules don't say that you can only choose from the famous players of your own team, what normal people think of is who Luke Walton will invite from the Lakers. Fame!
...

Finally, the list that Liu Xiu's family valued the most was announced—the All-Star starting list!

The first announcement is the starting list of the visiting team East.

Not to mention, Liu Xiu really cares about this.

Not only him, but the entire basketball world is very concerned about the Eastern Conference All-Star starting list.

Compared with the All-Star vote king, the Eastern Conference All-Star starting battle is obviously more concerned.

Can James and Wade beat Iverson, Carter, McGrady, and Hill, the four superstars who entered the NBA in the golden age of Pan-96?

After voting for James and Wade overtaking Carter and McGrady in the second stage, the competition for the forward and guard positions in the Eastern Conference became fierce. Fans of the four superstars actively competed for the starting position. James and Wade Fans of these two new-generation balloon stars did not back down at all, and they jointly competed for the starting lineup.

On the morning of February 2rd, in the last half of the day, a round of voting wars were set off on the Internet, which aroused widespread concern.

Now all the dust has settled, just waiting for the results.

The first to be announced is the vote for the Eastern Conference center position.

O'Neal stabilized Ben Wallace's 316 votes with 99 million votes, and became an All-Star starter again after two years.

At the same time, the joke announced that O'Neal was the highest-voted player in the East.

It is quite rare to announce the one with the highest number of votes first, but it is also expected, and the suspenseful ones are always left behind.

Immediately afterwards, the forwards in the East.

The name that was read first in the joke was Grant Hill, the forward with 231 million votes.

Liu Xiu looked a little nervous. His family members predicted who would be second. He didn't get involved, so he wanted to know the result.

The second name that came out of the joke was - Vince Carter! 223 million votes!

No.3, James, who lost the starting lineup, had 219 million votes and was not selected as the starting lineup for the All-Star.

And finally the Eastern Conference guards.

The name read first by the joke was Allen Iverson, with 242 million votes.

Then McGrady ranked second with 237 million votes.

No.3 is Wade, 192 million votes, failed to be selected for the All-Star starter.

When all the five starters in the Eastern Conference were announced, Liu Xiu's first reaction was not to be excited that the four major shooting guards of 'Ike Cameron' gathered on the All-Star stage at the same time as the All-Star starters at the same time, but to regret that James and Wade An opponent of the same class failed to join his warden on the All-Star stage as an All-Star starter.

Compared with the excitement when he was selected as the All-Star starter last year, now he is no longer simply looking up at these people, but wants to beat them.

Even, he didn't just defeat these people on his own behalf. When he just saw the Eastern Conference starters, he found that he was eager to represent and lead the new generation to attack the Mesozoic superstars and veteran superstars who are dominating the NBA!
