"Through the crowds of people

The whole city shines brightly

The kaleidoscope of heartbeats under the coat

Everyone here is pursuing something

Looking for a voice that no one has heard

it says

New York welcomes you

It has been waiting for you for a long time

welcome to new york

New York welcomes you

…”

Although this song is new, no one has heard it before.

But a good song will fall in love even if you listen to it for the first time.

With the brisk melody and the lyrics that fit the occasion, the arena was quickly set on fire.

The Barclays Center hosted the All-Star Game for the first time as the main venue, and it was also the first time the Nets came to New York for the All-Star Game.

At this moment, what could be more appropriate than saying "New York welcomes you"!

As a singer who has lived in New York for a long time, who is more suitable to say this than Swift?

Of course, the most important thing is that this song is really beautiful!

Even if you just listen to it once, you will be hooked!

Especially when Swift took off her sunglasses and looked at the camera with a sweet smile.

At this time, the thoughts in many fans' minds are actually: Defeat Lin Ying, we want Taylor!

Lin Ying also had an indescribable feeling at this time.

The Swift in front of him is not only his girlfriend, but also the queen of New York.

It's like he is the king on the court, but on the stage, Swift is the king.

And he also understood why Swift was planning to sing this song in the Nets' opening game, because it was sung for him and the Nets.

But now, the target is not just him and the Nets, but all fans.

Welcome everyone to New York, to Brooklyn.

"(Welcome to New York) a brand new song

It has been waiting for you for a long time

(Welcome to New York) The neon lights are shining brightly

I've never fallen for this

(Welcome to New York) Shining brightly

I've never fallen for this

New York welcomes you”

It's a bit incredible to say it, but when the chorus was repeated for the last time, the fans at the scene couldn't help but sing along.

This is probably the new song that has conquered the audience the fastest!

And when the singing ended, the scene entered into the players' entrance ceremony.

First the Western Conference, from the bench to, and finally the head coach.

After everyone came on stage, Swift followed up by singing a second song.

It was a song she had sung before while holding Lin Ying's hand at a concert: "Style".

The reason why I chose this song is also very simple, its melody is very dynamic.

For Swift, who writes most of her songs in the country music style, this is one of the few songs that she can sing on the All-Star Game stage.

Then, the climax of the opening ceremony also appeared at this time.

Because after the song ended, the members of the Eastern Team began to appear.

The same goes from substitute to.

Lin Ying is the last one to appear.

And when he came out, Swift held his hand and walked out together with him at the exit.

It’s not a catwalk, but it’s better than a catwalk!

This moment caused the Barclays Center to explode.

Report, someone killed a dog, and they tricked the dog into it first and then killed it!

It's just that the two people on the stage are really hard to envy.

You'd be hard-pressed to find another one that matches Swift so well.

Likewise, it would be difficult for you to find anyone who is worthy of Lin Ying.

Then when Sloan made his final appearance, there was another round of cheers.

The main reason for the change in the Nets' game temperament this season is Sloan.

What the coach brought to this team is not only a tactical system, but also a team culture.

Sloan also smiled at the audience.

You read that right, in Brooklyn, you can even often enjoy the smile of the head coach with the largest number of technical offenders in the NBA!

Lin Ying won the All-Star Game MVP last year, and this year he started to fish again.

But what’s very funny is that at Brooklyn’s home court, many people consciously fed the ball to Lin Ying.

The ball that is brought to his mouth is not suitable for him unless he throws it.

So after a while, he seems to have scored the most points in the Eastern Conference.

However, the Western team is in good shape this year and has maintained a lead in points.

Especially Durant, basically he can make whatever shot he wants.

At the end of the game, the Western team defeated the Eastern team 148-138, which was considered revenge for last year's All-Star Game.

Durant also avenged Lin Ying's last-minute kill on him.

In the end, he scored 30 points, the highest score of the Western Conference team, and was successfully elected as the All-Star Game MVP.

In addition to the rookie game MVP that year, this is the first MVP he won in the main game.

Then what is very interesting is that Durant, like Lin Ying last year, also mentioned Lin Ying in his acceptance speech.

"I have to thank Lin, he scored 21 points tonight, he should have scored 41 points."

What this means is that Lin Ying did not try his best, otherwise he would not be able to win the MVP.

It seems to be a complaint, but it is actually a boast!

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

After hearing this, Lin Ying smiled and shook his head.

Barkley's title of No. 1 Lin Chui is about to change hands.

…

The All-Star Game is over, followed by the trade deadline.

According to the usual practice in previous years, rumors should have been flying all over the place at this time, and potential transactions should have been everywhere.

But this year it seems particularly quiet.

"I came to work in a hearse today wearing a black suit and a black hat, because it's really lifeless here."

This is the sentiment expressed by an agent.

This response from the free market is also to be expected.

In fact, there were already signs of this in last year's free market.

The early arrival of the super luxury tax has made it difficult for many people to walk on thin ice when making reinforcement choices.

Not all teams are like the Nets, Knicks, or Lakers and Mavericks, who can invest unlimited amounts of money.

More general managers have to take one step at a time to see the three-step operation, so it is natural that there will be fewer transactions.

It is against this background that the Knicks' operations once again attracted attention.

They sent away Jason Richardson and Landry Fields, and acquired Austin Daye and "Little Prince" Tayshaun Prince from the Pistons!
