Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 672 [A happy ending, unparalleled starlight]

Iguodala has a very good relationship with Iverson. When Iguodala won the MVP, Iverson danced excitedly on the sidelines. During the dunk contest tomorrow, they also made an appointment to cooperate, with Iverson passing the ball to Iguodala.

Iguodala never imagined at this time that his outstanding performance today and his MVP trophy would be the straw that broke the camel's back. 76ers general manager Billy King, who watched the game, had already made up his mind to trade Iverson in the summer.

Iverson has had conflicts with the 76ers management for many years. His absence from training many times this season has made the front office very dissatisfied. Even Jason Guo, who is famously not fond of training, has never been reported to have missed a Suns training session without any reason.

And since Larry Brown dismissed get out of class, the 76ers have never found a way to win. They have changed 4 head coaches in 3 years. After Cheeks took office this season, Iverson still couldn't get along well with the coach and kept playing in his usual way. The management began to think that he was a cancer.

In addition, Iverson's annual salary in the 2006-07 season will reach 17.18 million U.S. dollars. In addition, Webb's salary of 17.6 million was traded from the Kings. Without the trade, the 76ers' salary next season will reach 90 million. The NBA's salary cap is only about 50 million. If Iverson is not given away, the 76ers will need to pay a huge luxury tax in the future.

In fact, the 76ers had the idea of ​​trading Iverson as early as the summer of 2005. The management almost sent him to the Timberwolves to partner Garnett, but the chips offered by the Timberwolves were not sincere enough.

After the game, the media unanimously gave negative reviews to the rookie game.

The ESPN host said: Can you imagine? Jason Guo just sat on the sidelines watching the game, supporting teammates David Lee and Varejao, and received more applause than the players. The biggest applause in the audience came when he and May When Root-Fox shows off his affection.”

At that time, the cameraman showed a close-up of the kissing game to Guo Xu and Megan who were watching the game on the sidelines.

This audience interaction game is often arranged in NBA games. The rules are very simple. The camera on the big screen will randomly focus on two people of the opposite sex. As long as they are selected, they must kiss each other in front of the entire audience. Some people are extremely lucky and become winners in life, while some singles suffer a critical hit of a thousand points.

The kiss between Guo Xu and Megan attracted cheers from all the fans, and the close-up time was twice as long as that of ordinary fans.

On Saturday, fans were still discussing the Phantom of the Opera musical, and the night's challenge game also lacked highlights, including the dunk contest, which not many people liked because the four participating players lacked fame.

Among the four, the one with the best statistics this season is Hawks forward Josh Smith. He is only a role player, averaging 14.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game.

Good statistics have the bonus of fast break tactics.

Josh hopes to be crowned the dunk king and participate in the competition for the second consecutive year. However, he does not have many dunk tricks. He used all his good ideas last season. Despite his reservations, he was eliminated in the preliminaries.

He must have prepared a difficult dunk for the finals, but it's a pity that the fans didn't get to see it.

The outcome of the dunk contest has changed. Iguodala defeated Grizzlies point guard Nate Robinson to win the dunk title. This was a long-awaited success, and most of the stars supported him on the sidelines.

With this championship, Iguodala's popularity will continue to increase, and it will strengthen the determination of the 76ers management to send Iverson away.

The failure of Little Potato is directly related to Guo Xu and belongs to the butterfly effect. They both used the idea of ​​small men participating in the slam dunk contest as a gimmick. Guo Xu is a superstar and Robinson is just a substitute player.

When Guo Xu and Stoudemire won the dunk kings two years ago, they completed their dunks cleanly. However, Robinson's dunk after entering the finals took many opportunities to score. He is also not as creative as Guo Xu. He will be finished when the two compete against each other.

In comparison, Iguodala's dunk is more interesting. Especially in the first dunk, Iverson threw the ball behind the backboard, and Iguodala took off from behind the backboard with an alley-oop. He raised his head in flight to avoid the backboard and then dunked in.

On Sunday, Guo Xu participated in the All-Star Game on behalf of the Western Team. He played soy sauce throughout the game. Most of the time, he dribbled the ball after half-court. He only shot three-pointers during the counterattack when the opponent was not close to him.

His teammates also chose to create opportunities for McGrady to pass the ball. McGrady and Nash faced each other at the beginning. They played casually in one-on-ones and the shooting rate was super high.

Yao Ming also participated in the All-Star Game, but his playing style was not suitable for performances. Guo Xu passed a few balls to him. He had no desire to attack at all and would selflessly distribute the ball when faced with defense.

In the end, McGrady scored 37 points and 2 assists and won the All-Star Game MVP trophy at home. He was in poor form this season, and he won the award purely because of the data fed by his teammates.

Guo Xu made 5 of 9 shots and 5 of 9 three-pointers. He scored 15 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists and 3 steals. His close play also played a role.

And Guo Xu is the key to the Western team's victory. In this game, his teammates' outside touch was very bad. Kobe made 0 of 5 three-pointers, Ray Allen made 0 of 7 shots, and Nowitzki, who had just won the scoring title, made 0 of 3 shots. middle.

The Western Conference only won by 7 points. Without Guo Xu's 5 three-pointers, the outcome would have been difficult to predict.

There weren't many highlights in the main game, but Houston fans were happy and felt it was a happy ending.

The media commented on the All-Star Weekend and believed that all the limelight was stolen by Guo Xu, and his star power was unmatched.

The ESPN host said: Even if the players from the two teams played some tricks and danced together, it can't be compared with Jason's musical. At most, it made the fans laugh. Their performances were just short clips. Guo Xu Ke put on a whole show. And when it comes to dancing, no one in the NBA can beat him.

China CCTV5 commented: Guo Xu didn't try his best in the All-Star Game. At first glance, he did it on purpose. He ate meat for himself and left some soup for his teammates. If he played like he did in the regular season, the Eastern Conference would not be able to defend him without double-teaming. You can't stop him. It doesn't matter if he doesn't play well, the fans are waiting to hear him sing and don't want to see him play.

That night, Guo Xu and Megan Fox flew back to Los Angeles on a special plane. Ciara and Wilson were not traveling with them. They were going to New York.

Both of them were blockbusters. Broadway invited them to perform, and their status suddenly changed. They are all grateful to Guo Xu. In fact, Guo Xu just gave them a gentle push in the back, making them famous earlier than in their previous lives.

Before leaving, Siara sent them to the airport and said that she was also interested in acting. If Guo Xu invests in a comedy in the future and needs actors to make guest appearances, she can be considered.

Siela is always very serious when singing on stage. In fact, in reality, she has a more temperamental personality and is a very troublesome person. She loves comedy movies, and she has watched all the famous ones. She also likes to make fun jokes, and her laugh point is very low, and she is very unladylike when she laughs.

There is no game tomorrow and the Suns team is on holiday. Guo Xu took time to have a meal with his family before returning to Phoenix.

He stayed in Los Angeles for a day because the economic team had to report to him. This time, Guo Xu made a lot of money during the celebrity weekend. Not only will the concerts sell tickets and broadcast rights, but there will also be a high-definition video for fans to collect.

Guo Xu was in a particularly good mood. He didn't care about the small amount of money he earned from the musical. The key was that he proved that he could perform well in musicals and succeed in pretending to be successful in a highly anticipated event.

With this performance, his efforts in the time loop were not in vain. He only planned to perform this one scene and would not play the Phantom again in the future. Singing rehearsals were really tiring and no easier than playing a basketball game.

He will like it as a one-time entertainment, but he will definitely not be able to stand it more than once. The preparation period alone is very torturous.
