It's only natural that Billups was elected, with the Houston leading the league and Chauncey clearly being the third core of Yao Maihou. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info coupled with the assists of Chinese fans Aiwu and Wu, Chauncey beat Payton and Nash in the vote, and only trailed Maddy and Kobe Bryant to be selected as the starter.

Each of the All-Stars' five starters is voted for by fans, and the seven substitutes are voted for by the coaches of each team, and the head coach is the coach of the team with the best record at the time. So Lao Tang naturally became the fourth person to participate in the All-Star Game outside the CTM group. Outside of the main game, of course, there were also Rockets players, and Yao Mingbosh also participated in the All-Star Game (an entertainment program in which first-year players play against second-year players). In the end, the sophomore won a big victory, and Xiao Si was elected MVP.

"Jason, tell me what you think of All-Star." Bosh asked eagerly about Yuanfei. Since the incident when Maddie was lectured by Yuanfei, Bosh has become a big fan of data analysis and often takes the initiative to learn various basketball knowledge. This time, I even got together to watch the All-Star Game.

"The origin of the All-Star is very simple, the influence of the NBA was relatively small back then, and the audience did not pay much attention to it. In order to expand its influence and attract attention, the alliance organizes such events. After the effect was good, it has been passed down all the time. Yuan Fei said: "From the perspective of data, there is nothing to say, it is an entertainment competition, and it is always worse than a real knife and gun competition." The final score is also always high. ”

"Do you think the rules of the selection are fair? Some media also questioned Chauncey's election, believing that Chauncy hugged Yao Ming and Maddie's thighs. Bosh asked nonchalantly, but he immediately added, "Don't tell Chauncey that I've said such things." ”

"Chauncey definitely deserves All-Star status, and his ceiling doesn't stop there. If you have to pick out one person from the current western bench, it should be Kassel or Kirilenko, right? It's a bit unjust that Ray Allen wasn't selected, but the supersonic results are more average. Yuan Fei said: "It's unfair, the first invoice selection is really unfair." But the all-star is to watch a lively, and the fans can watch whoever they like, and ability is secondary. ”

"Isn't the first round of the poll unfair?"

"This time, the All-Star Ticket King is Vince. Carter, do you think Carter is stronger than Iverson, Kobe, Maddie? ”

"I don't feel that way." Bosh replied with some hesitation.

"The main reason Carter was elected to the top vote was that the other forwards in the East were too weak. In addition to Carter and O'Neal Jr., the two starters are very strong, and the one with the most votes is Kenyon. Second-tier stars like Martin and Artest. However, the power of Pierce and James is divided into guards, along with Iverson, Kidd, Davis, and Francis, and it is impossible for them to be selected as All-Star starters based on their performance this season. Maddie and Kobe Bryant are in the same position and have shared a lot of votes with each other. Therefore, whether or not you can be elected as the vote king often depends on whether the opponent is weak or not, rather than whether the player itself is strong or not. ”

"I see!" Bosh suddenly realized.

Yuan Fei laughed and said nothing, there are more extreme examples in later generations. Due to the increasing popularity of small balls, the center forward position is becoming weaker. The "Warcraft" Howard, who has not yet joined the league, has become the only super center in the East, and in the 09 All-Star Game, the Warcraft received 3.15 million votes to become the vote king, while the second-place center Perkins in the East only had a pitiful 620,000 votes. In 2015, the All-Star Game was forced to make a change, and the All-Star vote was changed to select three starting frontcourt and two backcourters.

"Coach, how can you bear to replace me? I feel good in my hand. At this time, Maddie looked at Lao Tang with a look of grievance.

"Tracy, this is the home of Los Angeles. We've got to give O'Neal and Kobe more opportunities to perform, and the fans love to see them perform. Lao Tang explained helplessly.

"But when I dunked just now, the audience was boiling! Coach, don't you see the enthusiasm of the audience? Maddie was still grumbling.

"Alright, alright, let's have fun." Tang Shuai is soft-hearted, "But be careful, don't get hurt!" ”

Soon Maddie stepped onto the pitch again and ran around the pitch with joy.

Yao Ming and Billups, on the other hand, sat off the court and didn't care about playing time at all.

Yao Ming always felt that O'Neal was the stronger center, and this was the home of Los Angeles, so he didn't want to take up more playing time for the fat man.

Chauncey was selected as an All-Star for the first time, and he was so excited at the moment that he didn't care about playing time.

Bryant made a steal, and Maddy rushed to the front court to prepare for a fast break. Kobe Bryant was also very cooperative with the ball for him, and at this moment Maddy only had Kidd and O'Neal Jr. in front of him. Maddie's eyes widened suddenly, and he glanced at the position under the basket, then threw the ball high.

"Damn, are there any people from the west behind me? It's too late! Little O'Neill was a little confused.

"No, it's a trick!" Kidd, who looked back, was the first to react.

Maddie passed between the two and ran to the empty basket, not an assist, but Maddie's design.

The ball bounced off the board, but Maddie jumped high to catch the ball in the air, and he stretched out his long arms and jumped extremely softly, as if flying. One second, two seconds, as time flies, time seems to stand still.

Yao Ming, who was on the sidelines, couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Billups also opened his mouth wide, as if he was about to shout.

But his shouts were instantly drowned out by the cheers of the fans.

This is Maddie's self-throwing board self-buckle! He also teased two defenders! This bounce height, this difficulty of the dunk, even if you change it to the slam dunk contest, you will get a full score!

The crowd exploded, the fandom was instantly unleashed, and Maddie's name resounded through Staples Arena. At this moment, there is only one protagonist of this arena!

Kobe Bryant's face froze, and he regretted the pass just now.

Although O'Neal played a luxurious data of 24+11, Maddie's performance of 25+5+6 was not inferior, and the wonderful dunk conquered all the judges. In the end, the West defeated the East by 10 points, and Maddie was also elected as the All-Star MVP.

"Tracy, you're fighting a little too hard today." On the plane home, Billups couldn't help but advise: "Don't be too tired. ”

"I'm sorry, just let me be willful. This year's All-Star MVP, I especially want it. Maddie laughed.

"Is there any special significance?" Yao Ming asked.

Maddie smiled silently, but secretly swore in her heart: "I want to bring this year's Grand Slam to the team!" In addition to this trophy, I will win this year's regular season MVP and the finals trophy! ”
