Tim Duncan privately advised Popovich many times about his decision to pick his opponent, but Popovich insisted on his own way. He thought that the Thunder were easier to control than the Warriors.

As the general manager and head coach of the team, Popovich has the power of life and death.......

Chen Cheng won the NBA 2016-17 All-Star MVP without any suspense, becoming one of the few rookie players in history to win the All-Star MVP in his rookie season.

After the game, he also received unanimous praise from his teammates and even opponents.

"Chen, he is a very good player. It is my honor to compete with him."Under Chen Cheng's leadership, Klay Thompson, who broke Paul George's All-Star Game three-point record, said

"I like playing with this big guy." Similarly, with the help of Chen Cheng, Curry, who broke the All-Star Game assist record of Magic Johnson, also expressed his love for Chen Cheng in front of reporters.

""Oh?" Curry's answer made many reporters' eyes light up.

Just when a reporter was about to ask whether the Warriors would try to trade for Chen Cheng in the future, Curry predicted their prediction and said in advance:"Of course, compared to being his teammate, I enjoy the competition with him more."......

In another place on the court, LeBron James' eldest son Bronny found Chen Cheng with a basketball, and Chen Cheng also signed his name on the basketball with a smile.

""Thank you, Uncle Chen!" Brownie said excitedly after receiving Chen Cheng's autograph.

"It's okay." Chen Cheng smiled and touched Bronny's head.

Bronny has good basketball talent, but it is not comparable to his father, one is in heaven and the other is underground.

After all, when his father James was his age, he had already dominated all the high schools in the United States.

But Bronny obviously does not have such dominance.

After Chen Cheng signed for Bronny, James found Chen Cheng again to hug him, and said with a smile:"Chen, your [passing ability] has made great progress"

""Haha, thank you." Chen Cheng laughed.

While the two were complimenting each other, a reporter interviewed Brownie.

"Bronny, who do you think is the strongest player in the NBA?"The reporter asked in a joking tone. As soon as this was said,

Chen Cheng and James, who were still chatting, stopped immediately and looked at Bronny.

"This is my own son!"

Thinking of this, James was full of confidence.

"Obviously, the best player in the league is Uncle Chen!"Bronny said with absolute certainty

"oh...no..."When James heard his son say Chen Cheng was the best player, he pretended to be"heartbroken".

This made the reporters around him laugh........

On the night of the end of the game,

Chen Cheng broke records like crazy and led his teammates to break records.

This earned Chen Cheng a generous reward.

After the lottery exchange,

Chen Cheng received a total of 150 [Random Attribute Points].

All of this was used to strengthen [Core Strength].

This increased Chen Cheng's [Core Strength] from [84] to [99].

For example, for waist kings like Jordan and Kobe, [Core Strength] is between 95-100.

Today, Chen Cheng, who is 226cm tall, has the same [Core Strength] as Jordan and Kobe.

Strong core strength allows Chen Cheng to maintain balance in the air, thereby achieving the effect of staying in the air.

In fact, staying in the air is not only about jumping high....

It is also possible to jump low.

If you hover in the air at a low altitude, that is also hovering in the air.

In addition to the effect of hovering in the air, it can also bring eternal happiness to the family.......

Time flies!

Time flies like a white horse. It has been more than half a month since the All-Star Game in February. In March

, the teams that are fighting for the top pick have staged one"bottomless" drama after another.

The teams on the edge of the playoffs are going all out, hoping to catch the last train to the playoffs. The noble areas of the East and West, well, the upper half of the top four, have hardly changed in the past half month.

Except for the San Antonio Spurs.

The Spurs lost 4 games in a row!

9 games and 6 losses!

They successfully slipped from the third place in the West to the fourth place in the West.

But they have a clear gap with the fifth place Houston Rockets in the West.

The current ranking of the West:

1-8 respectively: Thunder, Warriors, Clippers, Spurs, Rockets, Jazz, Grizzlies, Trail Blazers.

There are not many games left before the playoffs.

If this trend continues.

In the first round of the playoffs, the Thunder will face the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Thunder's record against the Trail Blazers is not good, even though they are the first in the West.

Many fans even thought that the Trail Blazers would likely stage a"black eight miracle".

In addition to the Trail Blazers, the Grizzlies also seemed to be intent on controlling the wins, having beaten the Thunder in the regular season.

For a while!

The Thunder, ranked first in the league, seemed to be a soft persimmon.

Even Lonzo Ball, the NCAA star player who was in the limelight during March Madness, was...The father of the Thunder, LaVar Ball, also came to take advantage of the Thunder and Chen Cheng's popularity.

This LaVar Ball who praises his son everywhere and builds momentum for them

"Although the Thunder's record this year is the best in the league"

"But the regular season and the playoffs are different"

"I don't think the Thunder will go far this year."

"Even though they have a strong young player this year, Chen Cheng, who is as talented as my son, it is still difficult for them to go far."

Lan Dad made a big statement on Twitter, attracting attention from all media.......

The night before the game against Memphis

, a reporter and Chen Cheng asked about the issue of Ball's father.

"Haha." Chen Cheng laughed at this and responded confidently and domineeringly, saying:"To be honest, from the perspective of a father, I can understand what LaVar LaVar said."

"But from a player's perspective, Lonzo Ball and I are not on the same plane, with all due respect.".......

Chen Cheng's words soon reached Ball's ears.

"Chen, you are too self-righteous."

"When my son enters the league, he will let you know how good he is."

LaBal responded strongly.

However, at the same time that LaBal responded, his eldest son Lonzo Ball responded on Twitter helplessly:"Dad, I hope you can talk less."
