Chapter 261 All Star Vision

"The next time we meet, I think it will be next year!"

"It's okay, we can talk on the phone."

"We will meet again at the All-Star game in January next year."

"I think my chance of being selected as an All-Star is very small! I'm not Brother Yao and you, and my performance is not that convincing."

"Whoever said that the All-Star game is over, I'm talking about the rookie match."

"Forehead"

After the game, Jin Hao immediately found Yi Jianlian and exchanged pleasantries with him.

The Kings and Lakers belong to different divisions, and they only meet twice in a season, and the next time they meet will be at the end of the season.

Fortunately, according to Yi Jianlian's current performance, it may not be too big to be selected for the All-Star Game, but it is more than enough to enter the Rookie Game. After all, he is not like his previous life, always playing and stopping.

"Man, your performance is really great, looking forward to your performance at the All-Star Weekend."

After chatting with Yi Jianlian, Kevin Martin next to him came over, and this guy was already waiting to say hello to Jin Hao.

Kevin Martin took a total of 21 shots today, hit 9 goals, and had a shooting percentage of about 42. In addition, he made 6 of 27 free throws and scored a team-high [-] points.

In fact, Martin scored 16 points with high efficiency in the first half, but in the second half, he was taken care of by Jin Hao and Kobe in turn, and his shooting percentage dropped.

Feeling the envy in Kevin Martin's words, Jin Hao stepped forward and gave him a hug, and then said: "Thank you for the compliment, your performance today is also very good, and this season you played the best performance of your career , Maybe you may also be selected as an All-Star this year."

"Really? Kim, you really think I can be selected for the All-Star Game."

The All-Star Weekend is the big stage that every NBA player dreams of, but there are only 24 players who can be selected for the All-Star Game every year, counting the starters and substitutes. Kevin Martin doesn’t think he has any hope of being among the 24 players. ranks.

Just talking about the West, Kobe, Iverson, Nash, and Paul is enough to make people daunting. Kevin Martin really feels that he has little hope.

But today someone told him that he has the hope of entering this year's All-Star Game, which is nothing short of fantasy.

"Of course, it is unlikely that the All-Stars will start, but if the All-Stars come off the bench, you have every chance to make a dash."

"All-star substitute?"

Jin Hao's words are not fooling around. The 07-08 season was indeed a season in which Kevin Martin officially emerged. This season, his average scoring is nearly 25 points per game, which is infinitely close to the top scorer in the league.

And this is only Kevin Martin's fourth season. If you don't look at it from the eyes of latecomers, from the outside world, this seems to be a rising super scorer.

The reason why Kevin Martin was not selected as an All-Star in his previous life was that his style of play was not very popular, and second, he was relatively low-key. In Jin Hao’s view, this guy belongs to the typical type who has enough strength but not enough fame. .

But it's different now. It turns out that the Kings didn't have Yi Jianlian in history.

There was such a saying: "Before 08, never underestimate the energy of Chinese fans."

If Yao Ming’s All-Star tour in 02 made the NBA feel the great energy of Chinese fans for the first time, then Yi Jianlian was selected to the All-Star squad in 08, and the subsequent events made the NBA fully realize the power of Chinese fans.

This season, Yi Jianlian’s performance was mediocre, and he couldn’t even sit firmly in the team’s starting position. It was a blessing to be selected for the All-Star squad. However, with the support of Chinese fans, Yi Jianlian’s number of votes closely followed Garnett, the number one power forward in the Eastern Conference at the time. , and the final number of votes ranked fifth among the All-Star forwards in the entire Eastern Conference, which was really beyond the expectations of too many people.

Yao Ming's abnormal voting record made NBA executives and fans dare to realize that there are indeed loopholes in the All-Star ticket system. However, Yao Ming has made a name for himself with his own efforts and proved his worth, so the matter is over.

However, Yi Jianlian's situation back then was too unconvincing. The occurrence of this incident made the NBA truly determined to reform the voting system in China.

In order to prevent such a thing from happening again, the NBA later implemented a series of measures to selectively dilute the votes of foreign fans, or even ignore them.

But now...

Jin Hao didn't answer immediately, but instead asked: "Kevin, think about Steve Francis. Why was he able to overwhelm Steve Nash and Mike Bibby in 03 to be selected as the All-Star starter? Statistics, Nash and Bibby are no worse than Francis, and the Mosaic team was a team that could not even make the playoffs at that time, and the Mavericks and Kings are recognized as strong players in the league."

Kevin Martin is not stupid, after thinking for a while, he suddenly realized: "Because of Yao?"

"To be precise, it's because of the help of the Chinese fans behind Brother Yao, and you are teammates with Ah Lian now, so you can also enjoy this benefit!"

The two years of 02 and 03 were definitely the brightest period in Steve Francis' career. In these two seasons, he was selected as the starter of the Western Conference All-Star for two consecutive years.

Especially in 03, his data has declined compared to last year, but he can continue to be selected as the All-Star starter. This is absolutely inseparable from the blessing of Chinese fans.

There was such an interesting data. When Francis was selected as an All-Star for the first time in 02, his final votes ranked second in the West, but his votes were only 274027, which was almost 50 less than the number one Kobe Bryant.

But just one year later, Francis's votes quadrupled from last year's base to 77. Although there is a gap from Kobe's 110 million, compared with Nash, Bibby, and Gary Payton behind him Waiting for more than 20 people.

This time, the first and second guards in the Western Conference are in the same rank, and the remaining players are in another rank. It can be said that a crushing situation has been formed.

"Kim, having said that, the All-Star bench is voted by the coaches of each NBA team, which is different from the starter..."

Kevin Martin wanted to add something, but Jin Hao interrupted him.

"Kevin, if your votes are the highest among the starting players, your chances will definitely be higher. In my opinion, Kevin, your strength is definitely enough to be an All-Star, but you are too low-key. The popularity is too low, if your popularity is higher, David Sent will definitely be biased, don't forget, this is a business alliance!"

Although it is said that the qualifications of the All-Star substitutes lie with the coaches, the selection of coaches should generally conform to public opinion.

If Kevin Martin's popularity is high enough, coupled with the strength he has shown, there is definitely hope.

"Yi, you must help me!"

After thinking through all this, Martin looked at Yi Jianlian with eager eyes!
"Forehead……"

I don't know how to help you!

Yi Jianlian looked at Kevin Martin with black lines all over his head, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Kevin, in fact, you can find some media to process your personal experience artistically, and then report it, which will definitely have a miraculous effect."

"What is there to report about my personal experience?"

Kevin Martin was also dazed, he just felt that Jin Hao was chatting with him across servers.

"A player who was considered incapable of playing in the NBA at first, but through his continuous efforts, he not only became a player with an average of 20+ per game, but also became the well-deserved leader of the team. Such an excellent player, we have How can we not report him?"

Kevin Martin realized after listening, isn't he the player Jin Hao is talking about?

"I don't think that's a good idea?"

Although Kevin Martin did not show much embarrassment, Jin Hao could clearly feel that this guy actually wanted to be like this in his heart.

"Kevin, you have indeed proved yourself through your continuous efforts. What we report is the truth, and there is no exaggeration. Moreover, such positive things are also advocated by the league, and the fans are also very interested. , when someone is interested, then there will be a hot spot, and if there is a hot spot, won't your popularity rise?"

In fact, after Jin Hao said so much, he wanted to create a "hardworking" personality for Kevin Martin.

This kind of thing was quite common in the previous life, especially in the entertainment industry, where "hard work" personas were extremely rampant.

It can also be used in the NBA, but the premise is that you have enough strength.

And Kevin Martin's strength is already in place, so Jin Hao decided to give him this move.
