Chapter 117: The All-Star Game Arrives (The Second Shift Asks for a Monthly Pass)

Zhou Zheng's combination punched those critics by surprise. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

No one expected him to suddenly fight back, and it was with a super triple-double.

Since Zhou Zheng's visit was broadcast live throughout the whole process, many fans have already understood Zhou Zheng's attitude.

I have to say that this game has changed a lot of public opinion, and those who originally thought that Zhou Zheng was thrown into the All-Star by China's huge population base began to face up to Zhou Zheng's on-court performance...... Although there is still a gap compared to Stephen Nash, but... Among the new generation of players, he is indeed a good option.

And, with his flashy style of play, there's nothing wrong with going to Houston...... The All-Star Game was meant to be a show, so why not send the best guy in the league at showmanship?

Public opinion has always flowed, and Adidas quickly accelerated the pace of marketing, and they directly branded the title of "the youngest Mr. Triple-double in history" in the new advertising campaign. And at the end of the ad, there is a sentence... All-Star starters? Why not? impossible-is-nothing。

Zhou Zheng finally got some affirmation in the North American basketball circle, after all, the data is real, and the honor is solid.

"I have to admit that he played better, and when he found his shooting touch, he was the top 5 point guard in the league." Chris Paul, who scored 31 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds in the game, gave Zhou Zheng a supreme evaluation after the game: "I know him well, he is always improving, and he will definitely become a superstar." ”

Zhou Zheng also praised Chris: "Although we never met in the NCAA, we became good friends in Orlando, and everyone in the camp knew about our relationship. His light will not be overshadowed by anyone, he will definitely have a sky that belongs to him, I know who he is, and I know what heights he will reach in the future. If I had to be given an 'enemy for life', it would be him. ”

The two new-generation point guards are close to each other, and they both stand out in the game. In fact, without Zhou Zheng's super triple-double, Chris would also get countless praises, and winning a quasi-triple-double of 30+ is not an easy thing for a rookie point guard.

Just as reporters were lamenting the happy atmosphere after the game, Desmond Mason played the role of spoiler.

"I can't help but want to tell you a joke about this kid who said he was going to beat me in the slam dunk contest. Yes... You heard me right, he's going to sign up for this slam dunk contest and he's challenged me. ”

"I'm already planning my dunk move, and it's going to blow everyone away. Wait and see, the sky has always been black man's territory. ”

Desmond Mason's words caused an uproar.

Zhou Zheng did dunk a lot of baskets in the game, but most people think that he is not qualified to enter the slam dunk contest to compete for the slam dunk king, he is too short, and his body is thin and he can't do too many tricks.

"He's supposed to go to the Skills Challenge."

Fans are not optimistic about Zhou Zheng's slam dunk contest journey.

In addition, Mason's remarks sparked a full-scale protest from the Chinese community, believing that he was racist.

Under the pressure of this public opinion, Mason made an apologetic gesture, but it seemed very insincere.

This aroused strong indignation among Chinese fans, who had long been unhappy with Mason, he was the one who fell over his shoulder and Yao Shu back then, and he is the one who provoked Zhou Zheng now...... Is it really easy to bully Chinese?

Mason didn't care about being the least popular person in China, and he still stressed in an interview that he would clean up Zhou Zheng in the slam dunk contest.

Zhou Zheng never responds, he likes to speak with actions.

And Bill Simmons, who was named by him, responded after the Trail Blazers' loss to the Grizzlies on the road: "Thank you Zhou, I received the tape from ESPN, and I watched it carefully for three days. Finally came to the conclusion that it was an idol drama show that everyone was happy with, and Chris and Zhou both got the data they wanted and made their sponsors complacent. ”

"I really liked what he said after the game, he showed the power of literacy. But... I won't change my opinion of him, he is still not free from the shackles of an idol player. I raised my hands in favor of his selection to the All-Star Game, I have already voted for him, and he deserves a place on the All-Star stage. We have to take care of the entertainment of the game. ”

Bill Simmons' argument was still so sour, and the 'smart' selection was released after the Trail Blazers lost.

However, this time he did not get as much recognition as the first time...... When he threw out the label of 'idol player', the whole basketball circle was shaken, thinking that it was an appropriate description and a stroke of genius.

Now, however, no one can ignore Zhou Zheng's performance, and those who have watched him play know that he is by no means an ordinary person.

Time always flies, and All-Star weekend is fast in coming.

During that time, the Trail Blazers had a 5-8 record, and although they fell to ninth place in the West, no one blamed this result...... After all, this is based on the reimbursement of the season of the core players.

Zhou Zheng filmed the Adidas commercial before the All-Star Game, and in addition to some regular basketball moves, he also did a deep rose-sniffing action.

This made Zhou Zheng very puzzling, the commercial had no script at all, and there were no rival actors, and it was played against the green screen.

When Zhou Zheng asked about the content, the advertising director just said to him: "Don't worry, the effect will be shocking." ”

This is the second person Zhou Zheng has heard say this sentence in a week.

With the All-Star weekend on the horizon and the winter trade window already open, McMillan said to Zhou: "Tiger, don't worry. In our trading program, everyone you don't like will be traded. And, this is just the beginning, and you'll be completely blown away next summer. ”

Shock?

Zhou Zheng felt a little numb.

When the All-Star voting results came out, the media also used the word shock, Zhou Zheng became the All-Star West starter as the vote king, and according to the NBA official statistics, Zhou Zheng also surpassed Stephen Nash in the North American vote...... This left critics speechless, who have been saying that Zhou won precisely because of China's population base.

Now, the data has given them a big slap in the face.

Stephen Nash was squeezed out of the starting lineup, but was named to the All-Star bench that was voted on by all the head coaches in the league.

He didn't say a little bad about Zhou Zheng in front of the media, nor did he look jealous, but joked in front of the camera: "Now the Western Army can finally put together a lineup of five long-haired players, and it can also discharge the tactics of five foreign legions." This will be the biggest highlight of this All-Star. ”

Zhou Zheng also reciprocated, he praised Stephen Nash, and also vaguely satirized Ray Allen, who has been spitting acid water in the media and saying those yin and yang weird things: "I love Stephen, I got along very well with him the first time we met, and we spent a pleasant night together." He's a genuinely personable person, and you can't help but admire him. ”
