Chapter 286 All-Star Weekend Organizer

What fans don't know is that the Lakers did try to contact Wang Xiao before the start of the regular season, hoping that Wang Xiao can coach the Lakers.

But Wang Xiao refused.

Just kidding, the Wizards are now strong, Curry, George, Thompson and others are still in the rising stage. Even if the entire team does not play any tactics, they can gain a place in the East by relying on their own singles alone. Isn’t it better to win comfortably with their thighs? Why do you feel uncomfortable when you run to other teams?

As a traditional giant in the league, the Lakers are much deeper than the Wizards. The management is intriguing, and Kobe is the only one among the players. Wang Xiao doesn't think he can do anything after he goes to the Lakers.

At least the minimum premise he demanded was that the Lakers would not agree that their management would never hand over such an important right to a head coach.

Wang Xiao, who has traveled through time since 2019, knows very well what the Lakers will look like in the future.

Since this season, after Kobe broke his Achilles tendon in order to enter the playoffs, the Lakers have missed the playoffs for five years from 2014 to 2019. Even in the 2018-19 season, the team welcomed James, the master, but still failed to lead the Lakers back to the playoffs.

Although the Lakers are located in Los Angeles and may be the most popular basketball club in the world, Wang Xiao will still not consider it... However, if the Lakers promise to give him absolute rights and not interfere with Wang Xiao's behavior, when the Wizards win three consecutive championships and the team cannot retain all the current lineup due to salary reasons, he can also consider challenging it.

...

After the Christmas game ended, the December schedule is coming to an end. The Wizards are still the only one in the league to lead, while the Heat, Spurs and the Trail Blazers are following closely behind.

In terms of record, Wang Xiao no longer has to worry at all. It may be difficult for the Wizards to break the Bulls' regular season record of 72 wins this season, but it is absolutely no problem to maintain the league's first record into the playoffs.

At the end of the month, Wang Xiao deliberately took the time to go to Harvard to see Cheng Jie, Wang Meng and Hao Peng.

After a season of hard training, Cheng Jie and Wang Meng have initially demonstrated the potential of the growth template card, and the Harvard school team also officially included the two on the official list.

In the Ivy League league, the two can already be considered as the emperor's superstar level, and can easily lead the Harvard school team to sweep the entire Ivy League.

On the other hand, like Cheng Jie and Wang Meng last season, Hao Peng conducted daily training with the team and studied English and other academic knowledge.

Although Hao Peng, who used the David Robinson growth template card, is destined to become a top star in the future and may even become the second Yao in China, Wang Xiao still feels that some necessary knowledge should be learned and understood.

In this regard, he agrees that NBA must reach a certain age before participating in the draft.

The knowledge learned on campus is not necessarily useful, but some things are of great significance, such as improvements in understanding ability, teamwork, etc. In addition, the lower level of the campus basketball league can also give players a space for gradual growth.

Just like Hao Peng, although he has used David Robinson's growth template card now, it is impossible to play in NBA directly due to his age and basic skills.

Garnett, Kobe, James, and Howard are the few high school players in the league after all. If most players do not have a good over-examination and suddenly enter a high-intensity and high-level competitive league, they will probably be hit with a psychological shadow in less than a season, just like Kwame Brown, whom the leader of the Joe keen eye knew Ying and chose.

As a famous top pick in parallel, Kwame Brown is because of his lack of ability, and on the other hand, he has also endured the pressure and burdens that he should not bear at his age...

Hao Peng's situation is very good at Harvard University. With Cheng Jie and Wang Meng, two older brothers who had been here a year ago, no one dared to bully him. Cheng Jie and Wang Meng's great power in the Ivy League this season has also made the position of several people at Harvard more stable.

Jack is so happy. With Cheng Jie and Wang Meng, Harvard is expected to stabilize the NCAA Championship championship again. Since Jeremy Lin and Dunn participated in the NBA draft, Harvard has never won the NCAA championship trophy. If he can win the championship this time, he will definitely make a strong mark on his coaching resume.

...

After watching a Harvard University game in the Ivy League, Wang Xiao rushed back to the Wizards.

December has passed and 2013 has entered. In January, there are still a lot of things happening to the Wizards.

First of all, the Wizards had 17 games in January, 11 of which were away games, and many of them were back-to-back. If they were not careful, they would lose a row of consecutive losses.

Secondly, the NBA All-Star Weekend has begun to prepare for this period of time.

The Washington Wizards are the one who hosts the All-Star Weekend this year.

(The All-Star Weekend in 2013 was held by a certain team. Because of the disgusting remarks from Lei some time ago, he didn't want to mention a certain team at all, so the plot here will be slightly changed, which will directly make the Wizards the organizer of the All-Star in 2013.)

As the All-Star organizer, in January, Wizards players will shoot various videos and posters, participate in publicity activities, and canvass votes for teammates.

In the first round of voting that just ended, as the Wizards' star, Curry received more than 900,000 votes, and his slight advantage defeated James and ranked first in the league.

Curry's data this season is not an explosion, but the honor of MVP twice in the regular season and FMVP once has pushed Curry's popularity to the top. With the identity of the host, it is not surprising that he has become the ticket king.

In addition to Curry, the Wizards also had three votes on the list, namely George, who ranked third in the Eastern Conference forward, Thompson, who ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference backcourt, and Leonard, who ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference forward.

With the number of votes received by these three, it is unlikely that it will be selected as the All-Star starter. After all, even George, the highest ranking, is only ranked third among the forwards, and he cannot compete for the same forward position, let alone Leonard.

As for Thompson, there is no need to think about it. The Eastern Conference defenders are full of talents. Curry, Jeremy Lin, Wade, Rondo, and Deron are already fierce enough to compete for the two All-Star starting positions. How can Thompson be the one?

This is the case when Rose is reimbursed for the season and one competitor is missing.
