Chapter 62 The All-Star Voting Begins

Chapter 62 All-Star voting begins

The league recently released a message on its official website, announcing the start of the All-Star voting for the 2009-2010 season in a low-key manner.

All-Star voting begins!
This news has shocked the attention of the whole world, and many celebrities and experts in the basketball world have begun to predict this year's NBA All-Star.

This year's NBA All-Star Game will be held in Dallas. As early as the beginning of the season, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, Cuban, once said that he predicted the stars selected for this year's All-Star.

The bohemian off-court boss predicted many possibilities, but he kept silent about Steve Nash of the Phoenix Suns. Whenever media reporters pointed the microphone at him, he would always avoid talking about it.

Nash is a thorn in Cuban's heart. This is the old thing in the league.It stands to reason that no matter how deep the resentment and entanglement should be with the passage of time, don't you see that the grievances between Kobe and O'Neal have also dissipated.

Perhaps the two may still collide in private, but the OK group has at least returned to the original scene of living in harmony in the public eye, and will no longer be in a state of being inseparable.

Even when the Lakers lost, O'Neal saw a lot of media blatantly firing at Kobe. This righteous old shark would still put on his big brother posture and defend his former younger brother Kobe.

But Cuban, the owner of the Mavericks, is a stubborn one. Once a shadow is left in his heart, this stingy boss will definitely black you out.

Nash is an excellent example.In 04, Cuban refused to provide Nash with a contract, which made the young Zonda leave Phoenix and start his own road to Nirvana.

Back then, Nash was considered difficult to perform well, but the Canadian still told everyone his stubbornness and refusal to admit defeat.

A long-term insistence on not eating foods processed with sugar and flour, supplemented by hard and planned training, has created the reputation of Nash's two-time MVP in Phoenix.

This sentence is not just talking. When Nash was asked this question, although his answer was calm, he could still feel his bitterness.

For his basketball dream, he gave up too much. In order to ensure a healthy body to fight for his dream, he even gave up his normal life style!
However, such a hard-working Nash still did not make Cuban show any regrets. The owner of the Mavericks, Cuban, still believes that letting Nash go was not the biggest mistake.

After the start of this year's NBA All-Star voting was announced, Mavericks owner Cuban couldn't wait to express his opinion: "LeBron James? Yes, I think he is very likely to compete for this year's All-Star vote! He is very young, But he's just as dominant!"

When a reporter from New York turned the microphone on Cuban and asked him what he thought of Lee Se-ho, the Mavericks owner played his headstrong again:
"Bruce Lee? Who is that? Is he eligible to enter the All-Star, relying on his so-called Chinese market? In the position of defender, the Chinese cannot yet represent the views of fans all over the world!"

When these words were arrogant, it expressed Cuban's disdain for Li Shihao, and also showed that he did not believe that Li Shihao could be promoted to the All-Star Game like Yao Ming.

You know, in the NBA, the most indispensable is the outside superstar, especially the West, Chris Paul, Steve Nash, Kobe Bryant, Chauncey Billups... Which one is the easy one?

They all have their own playing styles and have their own loyal fans, especially Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash and Chris Paul. These three are the three most popular outside superstars in the Western Conference. Will think that Li Shihao can win the All-Star appearance opportunity from these superstars!
He regretted Cuban's words as soon as he uttered them. This may be another judgment similar to Nash's in the past, and he may become the laughing stock of the league again in the future.

However, the hooliganism of Cuban has also risen. He was born in an ordinary family, and he can fight from an ordinary person to a billionaire today. Cuban also has a certain amount of courage.

Even though Li Shihao's performance is good now, Cuban still has a hard mouth, and after finishing his wild words, he walked away arrogantly, refusing to show the slightest regret.

This incident that was supposed to end became popular the next day. A reporter from the New York Times published the interview in the newspaper of the day, and Li Shihao became popular again.

This time he was accompanied by Cuban's wild words, even a little insulting.

After the news spread, Li Shihao received a call from far away in Phoenix. It was from Nash. It was quite considerate to call to comfort me.

After some chatting, Nash hung up the phone.

Immediately, Nash accepted an interview with the local media in Phoenix. The Canadian was quite righteous in the interview: "I am optimistic about Bruce Lee among this year's rookies. Yes, he is the amazing Chinese kid. His skills are great. This year he is very likely to enter the All-Star Game, which is a very likely thing to happen, you have to believe in the strength of Bruce Lee, he has the qualifications!"

"At the same time, you also have to believe in the fans' choices! They will use their own choices to put popular stars on that stage!" Nash said with a smile, his words were calm and breezy.

But the media reporters present all felt the dissatisfaction of the Canadians. After contacting the Mavericks owner Cuban's remarks, it was obvious that Cuban's words made the Phoenix leader dissatisfied again.

The farce did not end. The NBA officially issued a ticket with a clear amount to the owner of the Mavericks Cuban. The ticket was worth $1000, which was like a slap in the face of Cuban.

The official reply from the league is that the owner of the Mavericks, Cuban, made some improper and radical remarks in the face of the All-Star vote.

Such a bland response is undoubtedly like throwing a boulder into the pond water, which undoubtedly made the owner of the Mavericks, Cuban, jump in anger. His mansion is full of broken ashtrays in the past two days. The people who waited secretly to see the Mavericks' jokes were very excited.

The handwriting of this declaration is naturally from David Stern, the current president of the alliance. This shrewd Jew will not allow anyone to easily destroy his long-term marketing strategy in China.

Asia is a big cake, and China is the most delicious part of the cake, full of fresh and delicious fruits.

For this year's rookie Li Shihao, he naturally held a very concerned attitude. What surprised him was that the performance of this Chinese boy was comparable to that of Derek Rose, the No. [-] pick of the Bulls last year.

It can be said that he has discovered a rising red star. After Yao Ming was reimbursed last season, he can undoubtedly use Li Shihao to stabilize and expand the overseas Chinese market.
