Chapter 119 All-Star Weekend

As the Magic defeated the Rockets, the Magic continued to fulfill their talents in the subsequent games.Before the All-Star Game, that is, at the end of the season, the Magic achieved a record of 36 wins and 20 losses, temporarily ranking No.3 in the Eastern Conference.

The number one in the Eastern Conference is no longer the Celtics. With the Raptors' seven-game winning streak, the Raptors took the first place in the Eastern Conference before the All-Star Game. With a record of 41 wins and 16 losses, they are proud of all the teams in the Eastern Conference. .

Today, the Magic have started their short break during the All-Star period.

An Xiaonan started 56 of these 51 games, averaged 32.1 minutes per game, scored 20.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, 7.9 assists, 2.8 turnovers and 1.9 steals, and the team's record is outstanding. When the family was doing something with Roland, they received an official call.

When An Xiaonan heard that he had been selected for the All-Star team in the Eastern Conference, he became more excited, to the point that Roland kept begging for mercy that night...

What a shocking thing it is for an undrafted rookie to be selected to the All-Star team in his rookie season!
An Xiaonan felt that he was dreaming until now, and before he could wake up, he received another call from the official.

This time, he was notified to participate in the dunk contest.

An Xiaonan's head immediately exploded, and his whole body became smug all at once.It seems that this All-Star Weekend, An Xiaonan has no way to take a good rest.

On February 2th, An Xiaonan took Roland from Orlando to Los Angeles, where the All-Stars will be held this season.

Arriving in the bustling metropolis of Los Angeles, An Xiaonan took Roland to go shopping.After all, during the All-Star Weekend, you can do a lot of things that you don't usually have time to do.During this time, An Xiaonan had to relax.

Now An Xiaonan's halo is too much.Undrafted superstars, All-Star players, best rookie favorites, top three point guards in the Eastern Conference, etc... These auras are on An Xiaonan's body. At first An Xiaonan felt very comfortable, but as the schedule progressed, he gradually felt these things. Halo is a pressure instead.Once his performance does not meet these auras, he will be questioned by many outsiders.

An Xiaonan is a member of the All-Star James team.The rules of this year's All-Star Game have been changed. It is no longer a simple confrontation between the East and the West, but a confrontation between the top voters from the East and the West...

The James team had a party on the night of February 2th, and An Xiaonan naturally participated.

Of course, An Xiaonan's task now is not this.

On the night of February 2th, An Xiaonan had to participate in a game other than the main game and the slam dunk contest - the rookie game.He represents the international team.

It is worth mentioning that when An Xiaonan was shopping with Roland on the street, he ran into an old acquaintance.

This person is Chris Paul, one of the best point guards in the league, who was not selected for the All-Star this year, and his wife.

When An Xiaonan saw Paul, Paul recognized An Xiaonan immediately.The two greeted each other warmly as if they hadn't seen each other for a long time.The grievances between the two people on the court did not bring it off the court.After the Magic won the Rockets that time, An Xiaonan and Paul exchanged sneakers and contact information, and they became friends.

An Xiaonan knew that if he wanted to survive in the league, he had to build a good relationship with Chris Paul, the chairman of the players union and one of the Four Heroes.

Like this year's All-Star game system reform, Paul has made a lot of contributions.

Although he missed a lot of games this year due to injuries at the beginning of the season and he failed to make the All-Star, his strength is beyond doubt.The only black spot on his body is that he has never reached the Western Conference Finals in his career.

An Xiaonan and Paul's two buddies went to drink, while Roland and Paul's wife got along with each other, and the two brothers and two sisters separated at the intersection of Los Angeles...

"Chris, I really don't understand why you lost the All-Star selection!" An Xiaonan angrily raised his glass and touched Paul's.

Paul took a sip indifferently: "What's the matter, what I need now is not these false honors. I have already won the All-Star MVP once, and it doesn't make sense for me to enter the All-Star. My goal will always be one , that's the championship."

An Xiaonan sighed in admiration: "Chris, I really admire your mind. In fact, you can also feel it. The league is targeting you Houston Rockets everywhere. The Warriors are the second in the league, but there are still four players who have entered the All-Star. The Timberwolves are the veterans of the Western Conference. Three, there are also two people who have entered the All-Star. But you are the leader of the league, and Harden is the only one who has entered the All-Star. You say this is not deceiving people too much!"

There was a trace of bitterness in Paul's eyes, and he said, "Ann, it's the All-Star Weekend now, and we should be happy. Why are you talking about such a sharp topic?"

An Xiaonan smiled: "That's right. I remembered the first time I turned on the TV to watch the All-Stars, and it happened to be your skills game. At that time, I was surprised and squeezed ketchup onto my spicy sticks , do you know why? Because Chris Paul actually missed the basket!"

"Pfft ha ha ha ha..." Paul was amused by An Xiaonan's joke. He missed a layup in the skills competition but was ridiculed by almost everyone in the league.The two exchanged cups and chatted a lot of interesting things.

"Yesterday, your Tencent Sports in China filmed a video about New Year's greetings with me." Paul said, "After retiring, you must go to China to see what your New Year is like."

An Xiaonan smiled and said: "Of course, our Chinese New Year is very lively. After you retire, I will take you to China to see the north and south of the country. You know, I grew up watching you play."

Paul chuckled: "There's a big guy coming over later!"

An Xiaonan was taken aback, and Paul looked at the door of the bar: "Doesn't this mean that Cao Cao will be here soon?"

I only saw a black man with a height of more than two meters, a muscular body like a tank, and a peaked cap on his head walking in.

"LeBron James!" An Xiaonan looked at James in surprise.

James sat next to Paul, saw that An Xiaonan was also there, and asked in puzzlement, "Chris, why is this kid here?"

Paul laughed and patted James on the shoulder: "I happened to bump into it while shopping in the street! What, LeBron, are you still worried about him shaking you down?"

The corner of James' mouth twitched. At that time, An Xiaonan shook him down in front of the American audience...
