Chapter 299 2004 All-Star Lineup
Various team deals were still going on before the contact deadline.

Just when the player trade was going on.

A CCTV news report before the Spring Festival once again became a hot search on fan forums.

This report is from the capital.

The host connected with the location reporter, and the report sent back showed that the construction of the Katillac Center Arena in the capital was officially completed.

Compared with the main body completed last year, the appearance does not seem to have changed much, but the peripheral square facilities can already see the degree of completion.

Then the reporter took the photographer into the arena.

The inside of the arena looks very new, and there are no various construction wastes, which means that the construction is completely over.

The bucket screen in the middle of the stadium and the seats around it have also been installed.

This news shows that the All-Star can be held in the new arena as scheduled.

When the fans saw the news, they were overwhelmed, almost weeping with joy.

[We also have our own big arena! ]
[[-] seats, an NBA-level arena!incredible! ]
[So beautiful!As a Huaxia fan, I have been dreaming of so many nights and finally this day]
[By the way, is this finished?Why is the middle court gone? ]
[That's because the wooden floor of the court was installed before the game, and it will be removed if necessary for other games]
[This is what a top league needs]
[We are getting closer to the NBA! ]
[Don't say anything, buy a ticket!Buy a ticket! ]
[Yeah, I have to buy it quickly, or I have to buy a seat ticket on the last floor]
[What can you see on the last floor?Can't bring a telescope to see? ]
……

Just when the fans were swiped by the news of the construction of the arena, the CBA also announced the 2004 All-Star lineup after the Spring Festival.

After one month of voting and four rounds of voting, the starters in the North and South districts were determined.

North Division All-Star starting lineup:
Lin An (Tianfu, Sichuan Province), Liu Guang (Great Wall of the Capital), Liu Zhizhou (Siberian Tiger, Ji Province), Hao Man (Mount Tai, Eastern Ludong), Zhang Gao (Tianfu, Sichuan Province)
Southern All-Star starting lineup:
He Siyuan (Su Province Dragon), Zheng Kailong (Hurricane in Fujian Province), Qiao Yuliang (Madou Shark), Yi Jianlian (Southern Tiger in East Guangdong), Qi Shijian (Sina Lion in Taiwan Province)
This year's All-Stars are given to rookies in the first and second grades, which is obviously a choice made by the fans themselves.

It also shows that the 02/03 rookie got a lot of love.

On the substitute lineup, the head coaches of each team vote (according to the rules, each head coach cannot vote for players from his own team).

Having said that, fans still said after watching it that it is full of human sophistication.

North District All-Star Substitute Plastic Surgery:
Wu Tianze (Liaodong Hunter), Sun Yue (Great Wall Capital), Mao Jun (Kunlun, Xinjiang Province), Habuti (Kunlun, Xinjiang Province), Sun Jun (Siberian Tiger, Jilin Province), Scola (Great Wall Capital), Xu Bu ( capital workers)
South Division All-Star bench lineup:
Tang Bifei (Nine-headed Bird of Hubei Province), Zhu Zhun (Wanma of Zhejiang Province), Yang Meng (Mammoth of Yun Province), Zhu Fangyu (South China Tiger of East Guangdong), Tang Zhengdong (Dragon of Jiangsu Province), Hu Deqiao (Pioneer of Two Cities ), Liu Yudong (Bayi Rockets)

Some players who were not selected for the All-Star starters, but who are capable of playing All-Stars, have basically entered the bench lineup.

But the most regrettable player this time is Wang Haoyu (Rubio) of Longdongnu.

Last year's All-Star starter, and now he doesn't even get a substitute, he can be said to be a loser in life.

There are many reasons for losing the selection, mainly due to Longdong Nu's record and team influence.

Judging from the latest team's record, it is basically certain that Longdongnu plans to rebuild, and some media broke the news that the management plans to buy out Gates and replace it with new foreign aid.And the new foreign aid is likely to be an NBA player.

In addition, some media broke the news that Longdongnu intends to completely screw up and chase next year's No. [-] lottery. Its target is likely to be one of Shi Xiaolong and Lu Tao.

The record is not good, and naturally it will not get the support of the fans and the recognition of the coach.The attendance rate of Longdongnu can only be barely supported at [-]% by low ticket prices.Less than [-]% of the league average attendance.

In addition to the team's poor record, the small market is also the main reason.

Longdong Province belongs to the middle and lower reaches of the league in terms of economy and fan base, so it is naturally not taken seriously.

The above reasons are the reasons why Wang Haoyu was not selected for the All-Star Game.

Compared with the starting lineup, the substitute lineup has veterans.

Sun Jun and Liu Yudong are CBA's tribute to the old era. Many fans, especially old fans, support the head coach's vote.

After all, a few people left too many memories for the old fans.Some fans even felt that it was a pity that Zheng Wu and Wu Naqun were not selected.

In addition, Habuti, who appeared in the All-Stars this time, is a decision made by the CBA to curry favor with West Asian fans.Originally, the CBA wanted to mention Yassin, but Yassin's data was really mediocre, so it didn't matter in the end.

According to the backstage statistics of the CBA, a total of 30% of the votes for this All-Star vote came from overseas.

Obviously, the influence of CBA is gradually increasing overseas.

West Asia fans chose to report to the group to send West Asia players into the starting lineup, but this number of votes is obviously not enough in front of the overwhelming number of Huaxia fans.

And the Japanese fans were even worse. Orimo Takehiko didn't even enter the All-Star voting list.The reason why I didn't go in was because it didn't meet the rules for participating in the voting.

However, Yuta Tianwo was included in the voting list, and the Japanese fans themselves were embarrassed to vote.

The average data of the two are as follows: Takehiko Orime averaged 8.9 points and 4.1 assists per game, and Yuta Tianwo averaged 11.0 points and 1.1 assists per game.

This also made the fans shout shame, thinking that there is still a big gap between Japanese basketball and the world's top level.

And some Japanese fans pin their hopes on the Takeuchi brothers, because according to the new draft predictions, the Takeuchi brothers are very likely to be in the first round.

Fans in Southeast Asia in the south of China did not choose to support Gugani. After all, Gugani is only a Malaysian player, and other Southeast Asian countries do not recognize it.

Local Chinese and overseas Chinese are more willing to vote for China's native All-Star players.

In addition, Scola's selection as an All-Star in the CBA was also reported back to Argentina. After negotiations between the CBA and the Argentine local TV station, Argentina agreed to try out the CBA All-Star Game.

……

The above is an all-star lineup.

And this year's All-Star coach has also been released.

The All-Star head coach of the North District was given to Liaodong Dong Shurui, and the All-Star coach of the South District was given to Prada of the Hurricanes.

The reason given is that the two teams are improving rapidly.

However, fans in the capital obviously do not support this approach. Fans generally believe that Mira's record is better.

-

Next comes the list of players for the various challenges.

Skills Challenge:

Gugani (Hurricane in Fujian Province), Mao Jun (Kunlun in Xinjiang Province), Xu Donghang (Shennong in Henan Province), Tang Bifei (Nine-headed Bird in Hubei Province)

Three Point Contest:
Zhu Zhun (Wanma, Zhejiang Province), Fengxia Chen (Capital Worker), Shipeng Wang (Southern Tiger in East Guangdong), Liqun Deng (Wanma, Zhejiang Province)

Dunk Contest:

Hu Deqiao (Pioneer of Two Cities), Liu Zhizhou (Siberian Tiger of Ji Province), Qiao Yuliang (Shark of Shanghai), Zhang Youzhen (Pioneer of Jincheng)
This list includes those who fans think are the most suitable for the competition.

Among them, the most watched slam dunk contest, each player is full of talent, and was rated by the media as the most watched game of this year's All-Star Weekend.

The CBA company has also made some changes. This year's All-Star Weekend was postponed from two days to three days.

Last year, due to the general strength of rookies, there was no rookie competition.

This year is different. Most of the strong rookies did not enter the All-Star Game, so it was decided to hold the All-Star Rookie Game on Saturday night.

But it's not the first-year and second-year duels, but the first-year players from the north and the south.

Northside rookie roster:

Mao Jun, Chen Fengxia, Xu Donghang, Chang Le, Wei Mingliang (Longdong Nu), Liu Zhizhou, Cheng Wendong, Zhang Youzhen, Hao Man,...

Southside rookie roster:

Tang Bifei, Zhu Zhun, Gugani, Hu Deqiao, Wang Jin (Mammoth in Yun Province), Peng Huicong (Nine-headed Bird in E Province), Qiao Yuliang, Yang Meng, Qi Shijian,…

Although it has the rookie game, the CBA still has not stopped holding the star game.

According to the exposure of this year's regular season, the North and South University Star Team is arranged.

Due to the fact that there are too many good players this year, it was decided to play two teams according to the four major divisions.

Showdowns are scheduled for Friday afternoon and evening.

In addition, the CBA decided to add the Masters game on Saturday afternoon.Celebrities from all walks of life are invited to participate in the competition, which increases the influence of CBA.

In addition to stars from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan who were invited, influential stars in Asia are also on the list.

Obviously, Chen Xinglian's ambition is no longer satisfied with domestic affairs.

Promoting the internationalization of CBA is what Chen Xinglian pursues day and night.

……

During the Spring Festival, CBA officially started selling tickets for various games.

Citizens lined up to buy tickets on the first day of opening.

Li Zhumeng and Xiao Ming are also in this queue.

"Holy shit, it's too long! But can we get a ticket?"

Li Zhumeng complained, and Xiao Ming behind him said disgustedly: "Are you kidding me, the Katillac Center Arena can seat 2 people and there is no problem with queuing, okay?"

"Yes, but I want to buy a relatively front area, otherwise I have to buy a telescope."

According to the request of his family, Li Zhumeng bought tickets for the All-Star Game, the Star Game and the Rookie Game.

Obviously, Papa Li didn't want to miss a race.

"Then why don't you buy tickets for the Masters? I heard that Jay Chou and football star Fan Zhiyi will come to participate in the competition."

Xiao Ming is obviously very interested in the Masters Competition, but Li Zhumeng curled his lips in disdain.

Is this game worth watching?I feel that it is not a problem for one person to do five, but it is just a CBA routine.

"No, the tickets are too expensive. In order to buy these games, my dad bleeds a lot."

Li Zhumeng's family can only be described as a middle-class family.

Just when the two were queuing up, they discovered a very interesting situation.

That is, there are many blond and blue-eyed foreigners in the queue.

"Foreigners?"

Xiao Ming aroused interest.

"It seems that the internationalization of CBA is getting better and better."

The CBA is getting better and better, and as a Chinese, I am naturally very proud.

"Speaking of foreigners, the NBA's All-Star lineup has also been confirmed. Both Liang Zhan and Yao Ming have entered the All-Star starting lineup!"

Li Zhumeng told Xiao Ming that since they voted in the NBA, they insisted on voting for Yao Ming and Liang Zhan every day.
