super heavy artillery

Chapter 401 Appearance
On February 2018, 2, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

An Luo stood among a group of big shots, his heart beating non-stop.At this time, the host Kevin Hart has already begun to introduce the players selected for this year's All-Star.Under his introductory speech with a strong American humor, the players came out one after another.

First up are three players who have retired due to injuries: Kevin Love, DeMarcus Cousins ​​and John Wall.

Kevin Love has been selected to the All-Star Game for the fifth time this year.However, he was injured in the previous game with the Pistons.It was finally determined to be a fracture of the metacarpal bone of the left hand and is expected to be absent for 5-6 weeks.Love therefore withdrew from the All-Star Game and was replaced by Drummond.However, the appearance ceremony of the All-Star Game still invited him to the scene.

At this time, Le Fu was wearing a well-regulated suit with a smile on his face, looking very handsome.However, the denim shirt this guy wears is very eye-catching.The collar was turned out indiscriminately, looking very bohemian.If you have obsessive-compulsive disorder, it's really overwhelming.

Unlike Love's indifference, Cousins, who was leaning on crutches, was very depressed.Of course, he wasn't upset about dropping out of the All-Star Game.After all, this is not the first time Tower has been selected as an All-Star.The real reason for his frustration is that he was reimbursed for the season due to injury.After all, this season, both the Pelicans and his own performance are at their peak.

John Wall wears dark glasses and has no expression.However, he should not be very happy.

After introducing the three brothers, the players of the Curry team began to appear.

Timberwolves' Karl-Anthony Towns was the first to make his debut.This big man has indeed played very well this season and has become one of the top inside players in the league.And the current Timberwolves seem to have embarked on a long road to reconstruction.This is due to their operations last summer, and the changes brought about by Butler are huge.However, Towns' contribution in it is also obvious to all.Therefore, he is well-deserved to be selected as an All-Star.

An Luo came next.The All-Star appearance order is the same as that of most NBA teams.The fringe players played first, the main players played last, and the star players played last.Recruits like Downs and An Luo should naturally be the first to play.

In fact, An Luo himself always felt a little foggy.

This is the NBA All-Star Game!The players who have played in this game are all his idols.What is an idol?It is what people imitate.Now, An Luo also stood on this stage.

It wasn't until he heard the host call out his name that he was finally sure that all of this was true.

When An Luo rushed from behind the scenes to the stage, the entire Staples was boiling.An Luo clearly heard many voices that he was very familiar with.

"An Luo!"

"An Luo!"

"An Luo!"

……

That's cheers from my compatriots!

These people are really happy.Basketball is a popular sport in the United States, but has long been viewed as a black and white game.In this sport, the yellow race has always been very weak.Many years ago, the birth of Yao Ming brought dawn to all people of yellow race.It's a pity that there is no successor. After Yao Ming, everything seems to have returned to the original point.But now An Luo played again.Just like back then, everyone can see another color besides black and white in the NBA.

At this moment, no matter what nationality they are now, they are always the descendants of Yan and Huang, the descendants of the dragon.

Of course, the voices of these compatriots were not the only ones heard at the scene.Many locals in Los Angeles, especially Americans who came out of UCLA and associated with UCLA, are shouting for An Luo.

This treatment, not to mention Downs who just appeared on the stage, is incomparable.Even the previous Love, Cousins ​​and Wall cannot compare with it.I dare not say big things in other places, but in Los Angeles, An Luo's fan base is too strong.After all, the influence of the NCAA is not necessarily lower than that of the NBA.An Luo is the one who conquered it!
The next players to play were Green of the Warriors, Lillard of the Trail Blazers, Butler of the Timberwolves, Lowry of the Raptors and Horford of the Celtics.These players are all-star substitutes selected by the head coaches of the [-] teams in the league. After appearing on the stage one by one, they walked off the stage.

But the treatment of starters is different.They all appeared on the stage at the same time, surrounded by the cheerleaders on both sides in the most central and most eye-catching position.As the captain, Curry stands in the middle position.Next to him are Harden and DeRozan.Embiid and Antetokounmpo stand on the outermost positions on both sides.

Subsequently, the players of the James team played in turn in the same way.

But before that, there was a performance.Every year during the All-Star Weekend, NBA officials hope to turn it into a national large-scale program.Like the Super Bowl.

Dragic, who replaced John Wall, took the lead.This low-key European finally boarded the stage he dreamed of.Subsequently, Oladipo, Bill, Kemba Walker, Drummond who replaced Love, Paul George and Aldridge played successively.Due to Cousins' injury and retirement, Westbrook, who was originally selected as a substitute, was finally selected as the starter.The rest of the starters are Anthony Davis, Durant, Irving and captain LeBron James.

LeBron James, the current all-star vote leader, was the finale player.

Regarding his introduction, Kevin Hart said a long list. Selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round in 2003, he has made 4 consecutive All-Star starts, 3 regular season MVPs, 3 championships, and [-] finals MVPs...

During this process, the applause in the Staples Arena never stopped.This is the only one out of all 24 All-Star players who played, including three injured players.Even Westbrook is nowhere near James.You know, Westbrook is a native of California and has played in UCLA for several years.

However, as No.1 in the league, James has the qualifications to enjoy all of this.

After the players have finished playing, this All-Star Game is about to enter the final climax.

Players from both sides also put on training clothes with "All-star" printed on them, and entered the court one after another to warm up.The referees on duty also came to the technical stage, making final preparations for the game.
