Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 710 The All-Star Weekend Arrives

At the end of the game, the score was 111:108, and the Thunder won by 3 points.

Although they won, the Thunder players were not very happy, because it was not easy to win. The Thunder is fourth in the West, and the 76ers are the tenth in the East. It stands to reason that it should not be so difficult to win, but the result is a fierce battle. In the end, it was Durant who sealed the victory.

"The Sixers have definitely gotten better."

"Yeah, and it didn't become stronger at 01:30, it became a lot stronger."

This game made the Thunder players realize that the 76ers are really different from the previous team.

The 76ers here.

The players were a little depressed and regretted that they were only three points away from beating their opponents, only one goal away from going into overtime, and even the result would be different.

unfortunately
Iguodala clenched his fists, his eyes unwilling. After a while, he let go of his fists and sighed helplessly. Facing Durant, he was indeed at a disadvantage, and it was difficult to compete with Durant. Durant was able to win at the last moment. He stood up and scored consecutive points, but he hit the iron continuously.

This is the gap, which makes people helpless.

Players from both sides embraced, the Thunder left, and the 76ers would eventually return to the locker room. The atmosphere in the locker room was still somewhat dull, and everyone was silent.

The door was pushed open and Coach Luke walked in.

"coach."

"coach."

the crowd shouted.

Coach Luke nodded, glanced at the players, and said, "Do you feel depressed, regrettable, and unwilling?"

Everyone raised their heads, with unwillingness in their eyes.

"Very good." Coach Luke said with a smile: "Depressed, regrettable, unwilling, these are the emotions you should have, but emotions alone are useless, you must have actions. Since you are depressed, since it is a pity, since you are unwilling, Then next time we meet the Thunder, just win it back."

Everyone's eyes lit up, but what is the strength of the Thunder team? Can they beat the Thunder team?

"Why not?" Coach Luke said: "Today we have been playing against the Thunder until the end, the point difference has been kept in single digits, and we only scored three points in the end. This is enough to prove our strength. I have confidence. The next time we meet the Thunder, as long as we play well enough, I believe we will be able to avenge our shame and defeat each other.”

These words brought back the fighting spirit in the players' hearts, swept away the previous decadence, and all of them wanted to play another game with the Thunder.

Only lost three points, why can't we win?

Although the game was lost, the goal has been achieved. The 76ers players regained their fighting spirit and confidence. After that, they experienced two more games, one away and one home. Both games ended in victory, and the team's record has further improved. Ascension, getting closer and closer to ninth in the East.

At the same time, entering mid-February, the All-Star Weekend is coming soon.

The NBA game has come to an end for the time being. There will be no games in the next two days. Players who want to participate in the All-Star Weekend game have rushed to Los Angeles-this All-Star Game will be held in Los Angeles.

Many players who did not participate in the All-Star Weekend also went to Los Angeles, such as Qin Hao's teammates Speights, Lu Wei, Nene, etc. They did not want to miss this excitement.

Some of the remaining players choose to spend time with their families, or travel, to rest and relax in the middle of the tight and busy regular season.

Qin Hao was also preparing to leave for Los Angeles, but he did not go with his teammates because he went with Jiang Xue
Los Angeles.

The All-Star Weekend is approaching, and the already bustling Los Angeles has become even more noisy. Fans from all over the world are pouring into Los Angeles, looking forward to the arrival of the All-Star Weekend.

Every year, the NBA All-Star Weekend attracts a large number of fans, and many people even travel thousands of miles to watch the NBA All-Star Game by plane.

The All-Star Weekend consists of three days in total. The first day is the "Celebrity Game" and "Rookie Challenge". It has always been the highlight of it.

Of course, more people came for the third day of the All-Star Game.

Because the All-Star Game is the finale of the All-Star Weekend, you can see many NBA stars competing in the same field, which is not usually seen.

When Qin Hao arrived in Los Angeles, he received a call from Yao Ming. Yao Ming had already arrived in Los Angeles and asked Qin Hao to have dinner with him.

In addition to Yao Ming, Butler, Rose, Anthony, etc. also came to Los Angeles. Qin Hao had already made an appointment with Yao Ming, so he chatted with them on the phone, but they did not make an appointment together.

In fact, there was not enough time. Tomorrow was the rookie game. Both Qin Hao and Butler were going to participate in the rookie game. They were both on the first-year rookie team, so they became teammates again.

The rookie game is divided into the first-year rookie team and the second-year rookie team, that is, the first-year rookie team vs. the second-year rookie team.

In the past, the first-year rookie team would suffer a lot in the past. After all, they have only played for less than one season, while the second-year rookie team has played for more than one season. There is a gap in strength between the two sides.

But not this year.

In the first-year rookie team, in addition to Qin Hao and Butler, there are Griffin, Wall, Cousins, Greg Monroe, Eric Bledsoe, Derek Favors, Lan Derry Fields, Evan Turner, a total of ten people.

There are 10 first-year and [-] second-year players in the rookie competition.

Because George and Gordon Hayward performed very mediocre this season, they didn't actually get many opportunities, so they were not selected, which made Qin Hao feel a little regretful.

Because of Qin Hao, Griffin, Wall, and Cousins, this year's first-year rookie team is far stronger than ever.

But the second-year rookie team is also very strong, including Stephen Curry, DeMar DeRozan, James Harden, Serge Ibaka, Brandon Jennings, Jrue Holiday, Taj Gibson, Wesley Matthews, DeJuan Blair, Tyreke Evans.

Curry, DeRozan, Harden, Ibaka, Jennings, these players are all very strong, and Zhu Holiday is Qin Hao's teammate.

The remaining Gibson, Matthews, Blair, Evans and others are not weak.

It can be said that in terms of overall strength, the second-year rookie team is actually stronger. The biggest advantage of the first-year rookie team lies in Qin Hao and Griffin. Their performance this season is beyond the reach of a group of second-year players. comparable.

Even for future All-Star players such as Curry, Harden, and DeRozan, and even superstars, at this stage, their individual performance and game statistics in a single round are not as good as Qin Hao and Griffin.

Therefore, this rookie challenge has attracted much attention, and it is believed that there will be a fierce battle, not like in previous years, where the second-year rookie team always has the upper hand.

In fact, it is precisely because the division of the first and second grades is not fair, and there are more and more international players in the nba, so after a few years, the nba revised the rules and changed it to the world team and the US team. vs American players.

Of course, the selection of personnel is still selected from the rookies of the first and second years.
