Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 546: Xiantian was blackened by the holy body, and the Northern Expedition took place!
The 2016 Toronto All-Star Game came to an end amidst a lot of fanfare.

However, after the event ended, the All-Star Game is still highly discussed.

Westbrook ignored Kobe's request and stared at Jordan's long three-pointer, which was really amazing.

No one expected that the final winner of this year's All-Star Game would be Westbrook.

Westbrook is now the most controversial superstar in the league.

Those who think Westbrook is great will think that he is an undisputed superstar player.

People who don't like Westbrook think that this guy is strong, but he really lets his teammates down in many cases.

After Westbrook led the team to a season without Durant last season, his statistics are explosive, but the controversy and doubts are also stronger.

Many people think that Westbrook is a drag on the Thunder. Even without Westbrook, Carter and Ibaka and his team would have made it to the playoffs.

Westbrook's record has plummeted after Durant left. This season, the Thunder looks stronger in games without Westbrook than with him.

Since Westbrook debuted, he has been criticized throughout his career because of his playing style. After the finals between the Thunder and the Heat that year, Magic Johnson even thought that Westbrook was the worst point guard in history.

Now, the magician still hasn't changed his mind.

Is it a real scam or a real god? It is really confusing.

For example, Jordan, who was standing opposite Westbrook in the All-Star Game, was stunned by Westbrook's move.

Those god-like point guards described by Magic Johnson would definitely not have such an explosive performance against Dan Zi.

Danzi was still very graceful, especially when facing a young man who dared to play with him like this, he was full of praise.

"Russell Westbrook's passion and motivation in the game are very rare in the NBA. He is simply another me! Watching Westbrook's game is like watching myself 30 years ago. His love for basketball and his fearless and unyielding spirit are fully displayed in the game."

Danzi's love for Westbrook is almost overflowing.

I can only say that players like Westbrook are indeed loved by Kobe and Jordan.

Jordan and Kobe are both stream-of-consciousness players. When they evaluate a player, they focus more on the player's temperament.

Players who can compete with Jordan and Kobe must have no problem with their strength. Without strength, can they be their opponents?

When strength is not a problem, temperament becomes very important.

Westbrook's temperament and energy were so impressive that not only Ke Zi but also Dan Zi was shocked.

"He's just incredible to me. He's the kind of player who makes the game easy on the court. I was in his position when I played for the Bulls, and I like everything he brings to the court, even the opponents."

"The future Michael Jordan? No, no, no, he is not me, he is the Mike Tyson of basketball. When the jump ball comes, he stands up from the bench like Tyson. When the game bell rings, he will pounce on you. Whenever he is on the court, he plays at a fast and fierce speed. Michael Jordan does not have such bravery. He is the bravest player in NBA history!"

Even though Kobe was ignored when he asked for the ball, his face was full of joy when he was asked about Westbrook.

"He cares about winning and loves to compete. He is that kind of player. No matter what, he led us to victory and defeated Jordan. I am not surprised that he made such a choice at the last moment, because that is what I taught him. Believe in the basketball in your hand, even if there is Jordan in front of you, even if there are Kobe and Durant next to you, you must believe that you are the strongest person on the court. This is what I taught him. Russell is the most perfect student."

Of course, among the members of Westbrook’s post-game praise group, the most eye-catching person was Du Kang.

Du Kang rushed onto the court after the game and hugged Westbrook from behind, which was definitely a classic moment in the NBA All-Star Game.

The coach went crazy for the opponent's buzzer beater, which has never happened in the history of the All-Star Game.

When Du Kang was interviewed after the game, he was asked about this somewhat inappropriate situation, and his answer was as direct as ever.

"I admire Westbrook the most. Yes, he is my favorite player and idol. His love and attitude towards basketball are the same as mine. No, he inspired my love for basketball. When I was at UCLA, he was my beacon. I would watch his games with Zhu every night. His pure basketball and competitive spirit are a lost art. He is full of energy every day and focuses on the game. He has an attitude and passion for the game that few others have."

"If you are a fan, you can like Westbrook or not, but as a head coach, it is hard not to like Westbrook's spirit. Every team should have a leader like Westbrook. He is the most suitable player in NBA history to represent the spirit of basketball."

Westbrook hasn't been having a very good time in the Thunder recently.

Durant is in the last year of his contract and has yet to win a championship, so he wants to achieve results.

Many Thunder fans and experts believe that the Thunder player who prevented Durant from winning the championship was Westbrook.

In the NBA, if you want to win the championship, being strong is important, but making as few mistakes as possible is equally important. Westbrook is definitely the player with the strongest ability to make mistakes suddenly in NBA history.

He can make the team win a lot of games, but he can also make the team lose a lot of games

It's hard to pursue a championship with such an unstable player on a team.

If the Thunder hold on to Westbrook, many experts think Durant will definitely leave the Thunder.

Many people feel that Durant cannot fail to see what fans and experts can clearly see.

It is precisely because of this that Westbrook is actually very upset now.

In an interview, he once said: "I am willing to change everything for KD!"

These words are very touching. I can become whatever kind of Westbrook KD wants me to be.

Willing to get into the shape Durant needs.

However, after saying this, he was ridiculed by many experts.

You are just talking, you can't do it. You haven't been able to do it for all these years. You will never be able to get the shape that KD needs. A man can never become a woman, and a tiger can never become a dragon.

Durant is actually not suitable for Westbrook.

Westbrook is not a good fit for Durant either.

Now, the entire NBA's public opinion is helping the Thunder to break up the team and separate Durant and Westbrook.

This is actually very interesting.

Durant, Jordan and Kobe's statements after the All-Star Game were considered by many to be standing up for Westbrook, who has been the subject of controversy and ridicule recently.

As one of the leaders of the recent troll army that slandered Westbrook, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has not been idle.

Especially after the Thunder got Anthony, the traffic of the Thunder, a team with a lot of traffic, has increased even more. How could Cuban miss the opportunity to get involved with such a team?

The day after the All-Star Game ended, Cuban spoke out on his Twitter.

"The strongest in the West? Can a team with only one superstar and one superstar be called the strongest?"

Cuban's words were extremely vicious.

What do you mean?
One superstar and one superstar?
The superstar is definitely Durant, there is no doubt about that.

But the Thunder with Westbrook, Carter and Anthony, no matter how you look at it, they don’t have a superstar team, right?

Well, among Cuban's superstars, Anthony is half, because he can be considered a superstar only in offense but not in defense. Carter is half, because he has the strength of a superstar in both offense and defense, but it is due to his age and physical strength. He doesn't have the strength of a full-court superstar, but only the strength of a half-court superstar, so he is also half.

As for Westbrook, I'm sorry, he's not even half a superstar. He doesn't have superstar strength in defense, nor in offense. He's just a brainless freak who relies purely on his body to play.

Cuban's remarks directly ignited the NBA's public opinion. Westbrook's All-Star MVP award not only did not calm his controversy, but made him even more controversial.

Because there are so many people who support Cuban's statement.

This is actually understandable.

Westbrook's image in the minds of many fans is already a cancer.

At this time, most fans like to play a joke that only Westbrook can defend Durant.

Now in the All-Star Game, everyone wants to see the final showdown between Jordan and Kobe, and everyone has already laid the groundwork for the first 47 minutes and 59 seconds.

You, a mere Westbrook, stole the show from Kobe and Jordan.

Didn't the second-in-command of the Thunder see that their boss Durant was just playing a supporting role to Kobe in the final moments?

How dare you steal the show from Cole and Joe?

Jordan and Kobe Bryant were full of praise for Westbrook.

This doesn't mean that Kobe's fans and Jordan's fans are full of praise for Westbrook.

Even now, many Kobe haters have been hoping to portray Westbrook as Kobe's purest disciple, but Kobe's fans are unwilling to accept that Westbrook is Kobe's purest successor.

Therefore, Westbrook, who won the All-Star MVP, became the target of public criticism and was criticized by many fans of high-traffic stars.

Then, under Cuban's charge and the enthusiasm of Anthony's joining, doesn't it have to wear Westbrook's black?
Such horrible black water made Du Kang frown. He did not expect that his idol Westbrook could have such great malice in the world.

Westbrook does play impulsively sometimes.

However, he is not the boss of the Thunder.

Why does the whole world think that Westbrook is the most evil person?

However, as Westbrook's most loyal fan, Du Kang certainly cannot help Westbrook at this time.

Can't help either.

I can only watch the fun from the side.

Westbrook is now the most criticized player in the league, even Danzi finds it unbelievable.

"In our era, I was the strongest player, and naturally the one who was criticized the most. I can't imagine that in this era, such incredible things would happen."

Danzi had been hacked before, so he saw the essence of the problem.

It’s not that Westbrook cannot be criticized, it’s just that he is not the strongest player in the NBA, but he enjoys the treatment of the strongest player in the NBA.

Well, all I can say is that the strongest Westbrook is the strongest player. When he is not in his strongest form, he will naturally be criticized as the strongest player.

It seems that it does make sense when you put it this way.

Who made you so fierce when you are fierce, the kind of fierceness that is invincible in the world, and the kind of trap that is invincible in the world when you are wild.

It's definitely the black holy body that was born with it.

Facing the malice of the whole world, Durant, as the boss of the Thunder, once again stood by Westbrook.

The Thunder's first game after the All-Stars, after the game against the Mavericks.

Durant took Westbrook to the press conference, and all the reporters were asking Westbrook about Cuban.

Westbrook wanted an answer.

But Westbrook, who was about to speak, was blocked by Durant from the side.

"He's an idiot, don't listen to him, he's an idiot, next question."

Westbrook, who has been confused and helpless these days, turned his head to look at Durant's cold black face, his eyes were about to become thready.

This is not the first time Durant has stood by him and supported him. Every time he faces malice from the whole world, only Durant has consistently stood by him and supported him.

The coach made him sit on the bench, the fans asked him to get out of the Thunder, and his teammates were very dissatisfied with him. Only Durant always supported him and allowed him to maintain his own style.

This is true love.

In this world, only Durant deserves his love on the court.

The relationship between Durant and Westbrook is very touching.

At the very least, at this moment, the reporters below all believed that the two people's feelings for each other were sincere and could not be faked.

The Thunder got Anthony, so they had to pay a price for it. The team became the target of public criticism, and Westbrook took the blame for the team. This was inevitable.

They are not young anymore, they have to learn to deal with things like this.

On the other side, the Bobcats are also attracting a lot of attention.

Because of the huge changes in the Thunder and Celtics, many media experts are now crying wolf to the Bobcats.

The possibility of the Bobcats winning streak during the regular season and continuing into the playoffs has also been greatly reduced.

Although many people have doubts about the Celtics trading Paul and Gay.

But these people's bodies are still very honest.

Although losing the Nets' 2016 and 2017 draft picks is indeed a disadvantage.

But the two trades of Paul and Gay for Leonard and George did make the Celtics stronger.

In the first game after the All-Star Game, the Celtics faced the Cavaliers, fielding a lineup of Davis, James, Jeff Green, Leonard and Paul George.

Big defeat to the Cavaliers!
Cavaliers player Oden went crazy in this game.

However, no matter how many points Oden scored, it was useless because the Celtics' defense was too strong and overwhelming!

Except for Oden, others even had difficulty scoring under the Celtics' defense!

After defeating the Cavaliers, the Celtics defeated the Heat back-to-back at home and away.

For a time, the Celtics were at their peak!
The Celtics, originally ranked fourth, instantly became the hottest team in the East besides the Bobcats.

Even the Celtics fans who had been holding their anger for a whole season actually shouted a shocking slogan at this moment.

"Northern Expedition!!!"

The Celtics really need to march north to kill the Bobcats, capture Jordan, and use Coach D to pay tribute to the ancestral temple of Boston!
For a moment, the Bobcats fans were trembling with fear!
