I'm a big shot in basketball

ESPN immediately held a roundtable discussion,

The host Rachel Nichols will make an introduction first,

"Looking at the entire history of the NBA, the same team has three All-Star players in the same season, mostly concentrated in the two giant teams of the Lakers and Celtics in the 50s and 90s, and the Pistons in the 89-90 season also had three All-Star players. star player,

The last time the same team had three All-Star starters was the Los Angeles Lakers in the 86-87 game, which was achieved by Ervin Johnson, James Worthy and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. They played 65 wins and 17 losses that season win the championship,

So folks, how should we think about the Warriors' potential three All-Star starters this time around? "

Kevin Pelton answered immediately,

"Chauncey Billups shouldn't be an All-Star starter!

Compared with Ray Allen, Steve Francis, and even Sam Cassell, he has no statistical advantage, no viewing advantage, he relies on the Warriors system record bonus, and as Yao Ming's teammate, he gets a lot from Voted by Chinese fans.

God, we haven't solved the problem of Chinese fans voting too much. Those Chinese fans only make a small part of the profit for the NBA. Chinese TV stations only pay 2900 million US dollars to broadcast the game. How can they have equal voting rights? "

Pelton's remarks soon sparked heated discussions in RG and other basketball forums: whether Billups can afford to start.

Some fans think they can't afford it, because Billups averaged only 13.9 points, 5.8 assists and 0.9 steals per game.

相比而言，弗朗西斯场均21.3分7.0助攻1.4抢断,雷阿伦场均23分5.1篮板4.8助攻，卡塞尔场均19.8分7.3助攻1.3抢断，可以说三人都对比卢普斯形成全面包围,

I think that Billups and others were elected because of his Chinese teammate Yao Ming. Even Richardson has a tendency to overtake Cassell and rank fifth in the backcourt of the West. If this continues, it is very likely that the All-Stars in the West will become The five Warriors started collectively.

There are also fans who think that it is no problem for Billups to be elected as the All-Star starter, because the rules are determined by fans' votes. Last year, Yao Ming defeated O'Neal and won the vote. Grant Hill was also a rookie.

Many people just look at Su Yang, who has a strong Chinese taste, and they are unhappy with the warrior, and they always want to make trouble for him.

If a player from another team is cast, many people may have to choose Nash fans.

Between various discussions, the Warriors landed in New York.

Taking advantage of half a day's rest, Su Yang rushed to Brooklyn to visit Beyoncé's concert rehearsal, invited all the staff to drink coffee, and stayed overnight. While living in harmony, while discussing the new album, they agreed to attend the Grammy together Awards ceremony.

NO.16 training at nine o'clock in the morning,

Assistant coach Wells reported on the various discussions among fans and media that Billups might be selected as an All-Star starter.

After Su Yang listened, he arranged for Stevens to observe Billups' reaction, "If he minds this and wants to prove it to the fans and the media, then play more tactics around him. If he doesn't care, then leave it alone. He's been through worse accusations..."

Billups was accused of sexual assault as a rookie. He was replaced by the Celtics in the middle of the first year, and then four teams in four years. What a big storm I haven’t seen before. The doubts from fans and the media are just trivial things. But it doesn't rule out wanting to fight back and hit the face.

So don't take the initiative to ask, lest Billups misunderstand himself and think he would mind, just make arrangements according to the situation.

The tacit understanding between adults is also training Stevens.

"Okay, I'll pay attention."

Stevens nodded, thinking that he had learned another trick, treating different players in different ways. Before Garnett was questioned, Su Yang directly surrounded Garnett to fill up the offense and defense, and played motionweakChicago consecutively to make Garnett shine.

The morning meeting is over, and the training begins.

Su Yang also took a look at Billups' reaction, and found that Billups was quite concerned, but he was not nervous and eager. He seemed to think that there was still a lot of time before the All-Star Game to prove it. After all, this was the first round of votes, and the next round There are no such doubts.

Instead, arrive at Madison Square Garden at four o'clock in the afternoon,

Su Yang arranged the content of the warm-up training, rushed to the media center, accepted pre-match interviews from various reporters, and talked about the fans and media's hot discussion that Billups is very likely to be the All-Star starting guard, and said with a smile: "I still That sentence last year,

If they refuse to accept it, they will go to the league to sue..."

Last year, the All-Star voter of Dayao made a fuss. He just looked down on the Chinese and himself who is dominated by Chinese blood. There is no need to explain to those people, just like rocket experts don’t need to debate with ordinary doubters whether rocket power should be powered by water. coal washing.

The importance of Billups cannot be reflected by the statistics. His concise and efficient passing helped Yao create many easy scoring opportunities. If he were replaced by an ordinary point guard, it would be easy for the central five scenes: Give Yao Ming, give, give, what? Not yet?

In addition to the simple and efficient pass to Dayao, Billups can also greatly deter the defense by rushing to shoot three-pointers, and control the path of the opponent's ball holder through his position, which means that his explosive power is weak and his mid-range shot is average. The output is small and there are two big disadvantages,

When the absolute boss is not stable and persistent enough, but as the team leader and the second and third child, he is strong.

According to the historical trajectory, Billups also has a hidden achievement, that is, he has an excellent record against Joe Kojan, including 6 wins and 4 losses against Jordan, 24 wins and 21 losses against Kobe Bryant, and 22 wins and 17 losses against LeBron. NBA,

Unique in history!

Enter at [-] o'clock, and there are big names in Madison Square Garden.

Spike Lee took several celebrities to take a group photo with Su Yang, saying that he wanted to make Su Yang's story into a movie. The main content was a Chinese graduate who couldn't find a job. He gave up his original fine art job for his basketball dream. At work, after experiencing all kinds of job hunting taunts, he was gradually promoted from an analyst assistant to the head coach, and then won the championship and became the boss.

"The rhythm needs to be slowed down. It is difficult for ordinary audiences to accept that you have become the head coach in less than 180 days..."

"Yes, ordinary people cannot understand genius."

"I think you need to add a particularly snobby ex-girlfriend because you can't find a job and choose to break up, but then Beyoncé makes love to the fantasy scene. Honestly, your experience is more than a movie. How on earth did you do it? everything?"

Spike Lee and the others became more and more excited, but Su Yang just smiled.

06:30 The game starts,

According to the suggestion of himself and Stevens, Su Yang arranged for Billups to play the main attack at the beginning, which happened to be broadcast live in New York and ABC. questioned by the media.

Billups followed suit calmly, holding the ball first, and bullying Knicks starting point guard Howard Ellis, who only weighed 82 kilograms, with his weight advantage, and then running without the ball, relying on the advantage of confrontation to catch the ball and make an emergency stop Big star Alan Houston,

On the defensive end, he also played a guest role as a small forward. After switching defenses with Prince, Van Horn, who was 208 tall for three consecutive rounds,

The offensive and defensive performance was excellent, with 22 points and 8 assists in the half.

The midfielder was interviewed. When talking about Billups' excellent performance, Su Yang deliberately shrugged his shoulders and showed "I don't understand". 22 rebounds and 5 assists,

He just became more of a team after he came to the Warriors, and he doesn’t need to play like that often. He might be more happy today and play more. Don’t be so surprised at all. He just wants to play that kind of data, and he can play it. operate. "

Compliments, and the second half will continue.

The Knicks have nothing good to do. One of the double insiders is the elderly Mutombo who has almost no offensive ability, and the other is McDyess after a serious injury. Garnett and outside small forward Van Horn didn't even like the Nets. Shooting guard Houston faced Posey and Hunter in turn to defend, and the mid-range shot became a textbook error.

With four teammates full of defense, Billups faced Howard Ellis, who was checking the offense, and invested more in the offense.

After three consecutive emergency stops and three-pointers, the Warriors extended their lead by 27 points, and the third quarter was not over yet.

The fourth quarter turned into garbage time, Su Yang arranged for Murphy and Josh Howard to play the main game, and finally won 116 to 89.

Billups scored 38 points and 11 assists in a large double-double. The key is that the efficiency exploded in only three quarters.

After finishing the press conference, the whole team flew to Atlanta overnight, rested for a morning, and challenged the Eagles back to back.

Entered Philips Arena at 20 o'clock, TNT was in charge of the live broadcast, and the mayor of Atlanta, the owner of the Eagles, and 200 children from the orphanage presented Su Yang with a certificate of honor, thanking Su Yang for his donation of [-] million US dollars during the All-Star Weekend last year.

Buckley went on to speak and praised Su Yang's good deeds, saying that was the reason why TNT had to speak out for Su Yang despite the warnings of many fellow TV stations in the face of sexual harassment allegations.The actual controller of CNN and the owner of the Eagles standing next to him suddenly turned dark.

Su Yang also simply thanked Atlanta.

The game started at seven o'clock, and the Warriors' lineup and tactics crushed the Eagles, winning easily 101 to 85.

Billups clocked in three quarters again, scored a double-double of 25 points and 10 assists, and was introduced by Barkley as an All-Star.

Instead, he flew south to Florida and challenged the Magic, who experienced coaching changes and no serious point guard, and won easily. Then he challenged the Heat, which was in a five-game losing streak, and gave the Heat their sixth consecutive loss. Get 20+10 double-doubles in two games.

Four consecutive victories and all 20+10, the record and statistics are enough to get Zhou Zhoujia players, which proves his strength.

Attending the press conference after the game, talking about his possibility of being selected as the All-Star starter, Billups said with a smile: "Compared to being selected as the All-Star starter, I think my greater honor is that Coach Su Yang has continued since the 01 off-season. legally recruit me,

Coach Su Yang's great achievements needless to say,

He saw me when I was struggling, and not a lot of other players, and that was my greatest glory. "

The interview soon appeared in the report,

The fans all lamented that Billups looked upright, and never expected to be so flattering, it was absolutely amazing.

ESPN was embarrassed to gossip about hot spots, and pretended that nothing happened, and turned to touting the Lakers.

Su Yang flew back to Oakland with the 14-game winning streak of the Warriors, preparing to face the Lakers F4 again before the Christmas game.
