At the beginning of March, David? Stern sat back on the couch in his office, drinking coffee and reading the newspaper.

The situation in the alliance is developing in the direction he wants. LeBron? James vs Kobe? Bryant, 23vs24, a gimmick that has been hyped for several years, is finally hopefully coming to fruition.

If the two don't meet in the finals again, Kobe Bryant will be old, and once he is old enough to be unable to hold it, it means that Stern's hard work will be in vain, and he will be worried.

Then there was the free market in the summer of 2010, James, Wade, and Bosh were all free agents, and everyone knew that as long as there was James, the team had a 50% chance of winning the championship.

While the outside world was speculating about which team James would choose, Stern stepped in and wanted James to stay with the Cleveland Cavaliers. "No matter what happens, I want him to stay in Cleveland," he said. Hopefully all career with the Cavaliers. ”

Since Walsh became president of the New York Knicks last year, the team has been preparing to free up salary space in hopes of having a chance to sign a superstar like James in 2010. Stein doesn't want to see this scene, especially under the premise that Zhou Xuan has joined the Knicks, he wants them to be opponents.

If the Warriors trade with other smaller teams, such as the Bobcats, Timberwolves, and Bucks, Stern may find a reason to stop Zhou from leaving the Warriors. To go to the Knicks, he felt good and appropriate. It wouldn't be nice if James went again. The formation of star groups will also hinder Zhou Xuan's development. No matter who the Cavaliers play point guard, James is in control most of the time.

In order to help James win the championship this season, the Cavaliers poached Yao Ming from the Rockets at any cost in the offseason, and Stern hopes that Yao Ming can be paired with James to win a championship ring. He believes that the superstar should take this team to the level of winning the championship step by step on his own. James may already be one of the top 10 players in the league in all time in terms of individual ability, and of course Jordan may still be above him, but James is still very young, there is still a lot of room for development, and his future is limitless.

Just like Jordan at the top of his game with the Bulls, Stern needs James to be the banner of a team, rather than leaving after a few unsuccessful seasons to hang out with other stars. In this way, it is possible for him to create a star who surpasses Jordan!

Vice President Adam? Silva knocked on the door and walked in, a tall, thin man with rimless glasses, a gentle smile, and a straight suit that looked more like a university teacher. "David, there is still a lot of news questioning Zhou Xuan's strength, do you want to help him say something good?"

"No, I don't. The reason why he was questioned was that he was praised too much by the media last season. Now that Ellis is playing well and the Warriors are still in the playoffs, they can't prove his quality, so let them question it. He will also need time to regain his form next season, and it is not good to expect too much. Fry Yao Ming and James, China will also pay attention. ”

After a few simple words, Stern decided what he was going to do. A single decision can increase viewership.

The Cavaliers and Lakers met twice in the regular season, both of which ended in the Cavaliers winning. The Cavaliers are strong in all positions, not just by individual ability, James's breakthrough is very difficult to defend after the blocking, and his statistics also overwhelm Kobe.

When he arrived in Los Angeles, Yao Ming visited Mitchell's house and had a conversation with the Olson sisters. When the three of them took a group photo, the difference in height was really joyful.

Yao Ming said to Zhou Xuan: "I really convinced you, I went to Los Angeles to recuperate, lived in the agent's house, and played with friends, it was enough to have a good time." ”

"If you jump out of the contract and join New York, I will buy a house and welcome you and your sister-in-law to live, and there will be a lot of people." Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

"I thought you were the kind of person who likes to be quiet and live in the realm of two people."

"When Nie Yuyan was here, I was indeed that kind of person, and after she left, I realized that I needed friends, as long as there were friends, I could laugh it off if I encountered any unfortunate things. Now I'm happy. Zhou Xuan said his great idea: "Michael? Jackson was very popular back then, and he gathered a group of stars for filming MVs, and I hope that I can have that kind of popularity in the future. When you get married or something else worth celebrating, you can have a party in the manor villa, and all the stars will be present. Ha Lu Ha. ”

Yao Ming asked, "When are you going to buy a manor in Manhattan?" ”

"When I made hundreds of millions of dollars, I went to see the housing prices, and they were too expensive to afford." Zhou Xuan shook his head and said.

"Are you going to spend hundreds of millions on a house?"

"Why not? Anyway, the money earned is to be spent. Zhou Xuan didn't care.

"I find your personality to be more like an American." Yao Ming saw that Zhou Xuan was very serious and realized that he was not joking. This also revealed a piece of information that Zhou Xuan may retire in the United States in the future.

"Brother Yao, it was said on the Internet that you have entered the countdown to immigration, is it really fake?"

Yao Ming smiled: "Fake, I didn't say that." ”

The media predicts that Yao Ming's child is expected to be born around May, and Ye Li will also be waiting to give birth in the United States. In this way, "Yao Baobao" may be an American from birth.

According to the U.S. rules on the nationality of newborn babies, the so-called "jus sintoli doctrine," if a baby is born in the U.S., then the baby has U.S. citizenship. So if Ye Li gave birth in the United States, then Yao Ming's child would become an American from the moment he was born, a Chinese with American nationality. China's Nationality Law clearly stipulates that dual nationality is not recognized for Chinese citizens, and Chinese citizens residing abroad will automatically lose their Chinese nationality if they voluntarily acquire foreign nationality. Therefore, once the child automatically obtains American citizenship, then he will automatically lose his Chinese nationality. Since Yao Ming entered the NBA, it has become a signboard of Chinese sports, and "Yao Baobao" became an American as soon as he was born, which is somewhat regrettable.

According to common sense, after the child became an American citizen, Yao Ming and Ye Li followed their daughter to settle in the United States.

Yao Ming is in good physical condition now, almost full attendance in the regular season, and he thinks he can play for many more years. Zhou Xuan felt that the most trouble-free thing was that Yao Ming's family had come to the United States, and they could ask what to do with the procedures, and it was much easier to do it when their parents came.

Referring to immigration, Yao Ming said: "It's too easy, it doesn't matter, like you pay so much tax, they are warmly welcome." ”

It's a boost to the economy, and who doesn't welcome it?

After the last, Zhou Xuan wished Yao Ming and James to join forces to win the championship, plus Jamison, they were very close to the championship.

Another month passed, and the NBA regular season ended in mid-April.

The Cavaliers finished first in the league with 66 wins and 16 losses. If Jamison had joined earlier, maybe they could have won 70. The Orlando Magic are 59-23 and second in the league. Despite the flawed defenders, they are still very competitive, Vince? Carter's ability to attack with the ball is better than that of Terkoglu.

The pattern of being strong in the west and weak in the east has changed this year, and the top six in the east are not weak. The third-place Hawks and Celtics also had 50+ wins. After that came the Heat, Bucks, Bulls, and Raptors.

The Bobcats won 38-44 under Brown's ****, and lost to the Raptors and fell short. What if the Warriors agreed to trade Stephen mid-season? Jackson may have a chance. Raja who has been going into battle with injuries? The surgery was announced, and Bobcat's grades dropped.

The 9-15 places in the East are the Bobcats, Pacers, Knicks, Pistons, 76ers, Wizards, and Nets.

The Los Angeles Lakers lead the West with a 58-24 record. The top eight playoff teams in the West have all won 50 and are fiercely competitive. The Mavericks are 55-27, the Suns are 54-28, and the Nuggets are tied with the Jazz in 4th and 5th place, 53-29. The Warriors are sixth with 52 wins and 30 losses.

The most bizarre thing is that the Trail Blazers, Spurs, and Thunder have the same record, 50-32.

Discussing who advances will first look at the three-way head-to-head record, then look at the winning percentage of the three teams against teams in their respective leagues, and then if the two teams are in the same division, look at the winning percentage of other teams in the division, and then look at the winning percentage of teams in the Western Conference playoffs. The best ones are at the top. As a result, the Trailblazers, who are accustomed to "bullying the soft and fearing the hard" this season, are unfortunately out......

The Suns had the best record of any team that had missed the playoffs in history in 1971-1972, with a 49-33 record, standing outside the playoffs. The second is the Warriors' 48 wins, which the Trail Blazers unfortunately broke the record.

West 9-15 are the Trail Blazers, Rockets, Grizzlies, Hornets, Clippers, Kings, and Timberwolves.

A number of individual honors have also been awarded during the regular season. The old and stalwart Nash is once again setting an example for men who are rejuvenating their second spring, averaging 11 per game. 03 assists, the fourth time in his career that he was elected as the regular season assist leader. And his 36-year-old "advanced age" has also become the most assist king in NBA history.

"Zen Master" Jackson once said: "Durant is the most referee-cared for player in the league".

Adelman once said, "Brooks is more deserving of the Most Improved Player award than Durant. ”

Durant's answer was that he won the title of regular season scoring champion in the third year of his career. The 21-year-old Durant averaged 29 per game this season. 7 points, breaking the record that has been in the dust for more than 60 years, becoming the youngest scoring champion in NBA history. In addition, there are a lot of dazzling medals on his chest: 47 points of 30+ in a single season, setting a record in the history of the Thunder; Scored 25+ points in 28 consecutive games, becoming the third player in NBA history.

Magic center Dwight? Howard averaged 13 per game. 2 rebounds plus 2. 8 blocks, won the league's rebounding king and block king, comparable to many celebrities. In league history, the league's single-season single-season champions of both stats include Abdul-Jabbar, Beal? Wharton, Olajuwon and Ben? Wallace.

Howard is no slouch for these guys, as he also led the Magic to the second-best record in the league, behind only the Cavaliers.

Also, Rajan of the Celts? Rondo won the steal king.

The regular season is over, and the playoffs are about to begin.
