Chapter 377 "Jordan pretending to learn"(1/2)
"He pushes the NBA's global influence to a new peak."
The front page headline of a newspaper called Basketball Pioneer attracted the attention of a large number of domestic fans.
"He did something that Michael Jordan had never done before. Sun Hao's appearance has made people's expectations of the sport of basketball reach a new level."
After reading the first issue of the newspaper, fans quickly discovered that the style of this article was so simple and familiar.
When I saw the last writer, the person who had read it suddenly realized.
Because what was written was: Su Qun.
This summer, Su Qun had already pulled a group of people out to work alone, and the Basketball Pioneer also came out in October this year.
Although Su Qun's name is very big, because of the Sports Weekly and the Basketball Pioneer's life was very small when it was first released.
However, Su Qun was very smart. He labeled the newspaper as Sun Hao from the beginning, and spent a lot of space on reporting Sun Hao.
Not only Sun Hao's performance in the arena, but also some interesting news in the locker room, exclusive secrets and so on.
And this time, a unique lottery number appeared at the end of the newspaper, and lucky fans can have the opportunity to get Sun Hao’s signature jersey!
This part is written by Yang Yi, a disciple of Su Qun.
Compared with his teacher, Yang Yi is more like a businessman.
But it has to be said that this businessman played a great role in promoting this newspaper.
This time, Sun Hao's unprecedented vote king, Su Qun's unique literary style, and Yang Yi's business philosophy, the Basketball Pioneer News suddenly became popular.
Fans who used to go to the newsstands and convenience stores after get off work or get out of class every day, now have another choice of newspapers to read.
...
After the All-Star Starter List, the league's substitute list and individual competition list are also released one after another.
Eastern substitutes: Arenas, Wade, Pierce, Anthony, Grant Hill, Milicic, Ben Wallace;
The Eastern Conference’s substitute list this year can be described as a “big blood exchange”.
Because of the Auburn Palace Fight, Artest and O'Neal Jr., two All-Stars who have officially reached the peak of their careers missed the All-Star Game.
Kidd, Billups, and Francis were also unexpectedly defeated.
Wade, Anthony, Milicic... There are a lot of new faces on the bench list.
Anthony's data on the Pistons this season has improved compared to last year, of course, what is more obvious than the data is efficiency.
He averaged 22.6 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game, and his shooting percentage increased to 46.7%.
These data are much better than the same period in history.
It turns out that Anthony was selected by the Pistons and was not deposed like Milicic in history. Instead, he was beaten like a fish in water under Brown.
In fact, this is completely understandable. Players' talents are divided into levels. Although Anthony cannot reach Jordan and James, they are also historically level.
Such a player is not something that can't be played simply by changing the environment.
Milicic is in a strong contrast with Anthony.
In history, he was suppressed by Brown in the Pistons, but when the Cavaliers got more opportunities, his performance also improved steadily.
This season, he averaged 18.7 points and 11.2 rebounds per game, and his shooting percentage reached 48%.
Although it has not reached the level that experts said in the draft that they could catch up with Yao Ming, it is already considered excellent.
And he was lucky, O'Neal Jr. was suspended, and the Eastern inside was withered, so he just squeezed in.
As for Wade, O'Neal did not go to the Heat, but the Heat seemed to be the fourth in the Eastern Conference with the Nets.
Wade even averaged 25.9 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game!
He exchanged talents faster than Anthony.
The reason why he was not selected for the starter was largely because he was only in the second grade and he had two popular bug players, Iverson and McGrady.
Of course, the most surprising thing is Arenas and Hill of the Magic.
After Arenas changed teams, he got more shots, with a data of 24+5+6. Now the Magic are ranked fifth in the East and are expected to enter the playoffs.
Of course, all this is inseparable from Hill.
The successor of Jordan, who has been free of battle cards since McGrady joined, suddenly got better after McGrady left.
He has only missed 5 games so far, averaging 19.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game, and his shooting percentage has reached 50.9%!
Arenas, Hill and Howard, who performed well, the Magic's revival is expected.
From this stage, the Wizards and Magic summer deal is a win-win result.
Western substitutes: Nash, Ray Allen, Ginobili, Marion, James, Stoudemier, Nowitzki.
Milicic is the lucky one in the east, but that situation is not available in the west.
All those who can be selected this season are impeccable performances.
It is worth mentioning that the Suns have a record so far at the top of the Western Conference. No one is selected as the starter, but three of them have been selected as the substitute.
This is the same as the Eastern Conference. There are two popular bugs such as Sun Hao and Kobe in the starting lineup. It is still difficult for Nash to make it over.
However, if we keep fighting like this, Nash will have a great chance of getting the MVP.
The substitute list is eye-catching, and this year's individual competition is also eye-catching because of Sun Hao.
Sun Hao will participate in two events this year: Shooting Star and Slam Dunk Contest!
The lineup sent by the Lakers this year is luxurious, including "Magic" Johnson, "Little Emperor" Sun Hao, and four-time WNBA champion Tina Thompson.
This is heading straight for the defending title.
Of course, this is a team project, and to win the final championship, it depends on three people to play.
And there are four teams registering this time, one more than last year.
In addition to the Lakers, there are also the Suns led by Nash, the Magic Team led by Arenas and the Wizards led by McGrady!
So this year's shooting star may pay more attention than the three-point competition.
And the same is true for another slam dunk contest.
Although Richardson, the only slam dunk contest triple champion, will no longer participate, Sun Hao and James both announced that they will play again!
In addition, there are JR Smith of the Hornets and Stoudemier of the Suns!
This year's slam dunk contest is still exciting and exciting!
The main competition is worth looking forward to, and the individual competition is also worth looking forward to. This year's Denver All-Star Game has a huge amount of attention.
Time flies, and it is mid-February in a blink of an eye.
All teams have successively ended their pre-Star Game competition, and the first half of the season has also come to an end.
Currently, the top eight rankings in the east and west.
West: Suns, Spurs, Supersonics, Lakers, Mavericks, Kings, Nuggets, Timberwolves;
East: Pistons, Wizards, Celtics, Heat, Magic, Nets, 76ers, Pacers;
This is also the impact of the reform of the competition area.
More divisions make playoff matches look fairer, but it also means one thing, if you can't top the division, you'd better be ranked fourth.
This is how the Lakers are. Their record is better than the Spurs and the Supersonics, but because they are not as good as the Suns, they can only rank fourth.
The same situation also happened to the Mavericks. They had a record that was not as good as the Spurs, so they could only rank fifth.
If the playoffs start now, then the Lakers and Mavericks will encounter them in the first round.
This may not be the result Stern wanted to see, but it was quite exciting for the fans.
However, more than half of the season has passed, and the final ranking will only be known on the last day.
With the rankings determined, the All-Star starting head coach of the East and West.
Larry Brown and Mike D'Anthony became the All-Star Head Coaches of the East and West.
After D'Antoni and Nash switched to Phoenix together, they finally soared to the top of nine thousand miles.
On February 19, the curtain of the All-Star Game officially kicked off.
The first day was the Celebrity Game and the Rookie Game.
Among them, the rookie competition attracted attention.
Especially for the second-year team, starting Wade, James, Anthony, Yi Jianlian and Milicic, Bosh, Koval, Haslem, Kaman, Hinrich...
Four of the 2003 generation were selected into the All-Star Championship this year, and the Starlight completely overshadowed the first-year team.
The final result of the game was also expected.
The second-year team played a massacre game against the first-year team, and beat the opponent 133 to 106.
James, who played at home, performed particularly bravely, scoring 31 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, and was elected as the Rookie MVP.
In addition, Anthony scored 26 points and 5 rebounds, Korver made 7 of 10 three-pointers and 21 points, and Yi Jianlian scored 20 points and 11 rebounds.
