Voting for the 2005 Denver All-Star Game officially opened, and this time, Chinese fans were buzzing.

In 2005, the Internet had begun to take shape in China, and personal computers began to enter everyone's home frequently.

As a result, the participation of Chinese fans in the All-Star voting is at an all-time high.

As soon as the voting opened, CCTV Sports Channel and major newspapers reported the news that Wayne and Yao Ming were selected as candidates.

Guess if Chinese fans will immediately surf the Internet and then vote wildly?

Yao Ming didn't talk about it, he already had the strength of an All-Star, and he became an All-Star starting center in the first year.

Chairman Yao: "I'm used to it. ”

And my Dawei God's row, if you don't follow into the All-Star, who are you buried?

Yao Ming has to enter, and Wayne must also enter!

Bao Yao Zhengwei!

Then in China, there was a frenzied wave of all-star voting.

Two Chinese players competed on the stage of the All-Star Game, and this Nima almost climaxed in his skull just thinking about it.

Vote, you have to vote!

Of course, the results of the first round of voting will not be announced until a few days later, and Okafor does not know what is happening to Chinese fans now.

So until then, Okafor can still distort the picture of himself becoming the first All-Star in Bobcats history.

Well, in the East, on the forward line, remove James, who voted as a guard, and then remove Carter, Wayne and Ao Jr......

Isn't that my Okafor?

Artay: I don't deserve a name?

Pierce: Can I be worse than the Bobcats?

Well, the picture is beautiful, but the reality is often very skinny.

When the results of the first round of voting come out, Mr. Perfect should be able to be woken up with a slap.

To put it bluntly, the league put Okafor on the shortlist in order to give Charlotte fans a little bit of participation in the All-Star voting.

The Bobcat team has just been formed, so it's time to take care of it.

But if you give you a mouse, you're ready to open an Internet café, that's your fault.

At the same time as the All-Star voting opened, the Pacers also ushered in a difficult road trip to the West in January.

Since the last game against the Spurs, the Pacers have played four consecutive road games in the West.

It is widely believed that this wave will most likely bring the walkers back directly to pre-liberation.

Don't say it, it's really not to blame the outside world for looking down on the Pacers.

Because of the strength of the western team during this period, he is indeed generally stronger than the east.

Sure enough, after losing to the Spurs on the 6th, the Pacers lost to the Mavericks on the 8th.

Dirk and Xiao Ao basically exploded into a mutual explosion situation today, one with 34 points and the other with 32 points. One has a 60% hit rate and one has a 57.9% hit rate.

Wayne was on the sidelines as if watching a fairy fight, and Dirk and Xiao Ona had so many offensive moves and rich postures that they were simply gorgeous, and no one could stop anyone.

It's also a shame that he didn't continue to start today, otherwise he would have ...... against Dirk

Ahem, good luck for the Germans!

Because Xiao Ao and Dirk are basically in a situation of blowing up each other, the key to the Mavericks' victory is not Dirk, but the successor of Jordan on the Nth day, Michael. Finlay.

Tonight's Finley seemed to be back at the top, scoring an exaggerated 33 points.

There were several balls, and Jackson gave Finley a direct slap in the face, but he just could score.

was so angry that the martial saint wanted to fight to vent his anger.

Plus on the bench Jordan junior Jerry. With 16 points from Stackhouse, the Mavericks eventually won 111-102.

Wayne basically played against Stackhouse in the rotation time today, and also scored 16 points, as well as 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block.

But Finley was too tiger today, and God knows what he ate last night, and the Pacers were suppressed all over the court.

The Texas team sent the Pacers another two-game losing streak, which made Print City fans very nervous.

It was like the haze of 7 consecutive defeats, and it was hanging over the cornfield again.

During that time, it really output psychological shadows.

Fortunately, after the next two games against the Hornets and Grizzlies, the Pacers won steadily.

In Memphis, the Pacers won by 15 points!

It's the NBA regular season.

Where are there so many teams with 70 wins, 60 wins.

Where is there a winner from the beginning to the end.

Most teams experience back-to-back defeats and back-to-back successes in the regular season.

Whether you can adjust your mentality in time is the key to whether you can play stably in the regular season.

For example, the Bobcats, they have a good mentality and have been very consistent in their play.

So far, it's 8-23.

The Pacers are a pseudo-strong team: there are losses and wins, and the stability is worrying.

A "super" team like the Bobcats: minus minus, minus minus, minus minus, more stable than the old driver with 20 years of driving experience.

Emeka. Okafor is truly the second-largest forward in the East, and can be equal to the Mavericks' second-largest center in the West, Dampier.

In the back-to-back losing streak, although Okafor also hit a few more double-doubles.

But watching the Pacers end their back-to-back road trips with a 2-2 record, Okafor began to panic.

Wayne, this is domineering!

You say, if you make the shortlist but don't get many votes......

Wouldn't this be more embarrassing than not being selected?

Okafor, who entered the league with a superstar halo, began to feel the gap.

And Wayne, who entered the alliance with the Chinese market, is about to feel what is called market dividends.

The regular season is still going on, and after ending a four-game road streak in the West, the Pacers finally ushered in a team that "sends warmth" - the Orlando Magic.

The Magic's current record is 19-16, which is honestly not too bad.

In fact, at the start of the season, the Magic had a proud 13-7 record.

But as the season progressed, the performances of Francis and Hill had big ups and downs, Howard had been tepid, and "Old Cat" Mobley was sent away, and the Magic's record gradually collapsed.

Right now, the Magic are in a state where they can force 55 open against anyone.

When it is strong, it is strong, and when it is weak, it is even weaker.

But whether or not they can win after 55 opens, the magic can't control.

Before today's game, a huge poster was posted outside the banker's life.

The background of the poster is corncorn, on which Wayne and Howard are looking at each other, and then in the middle is the start time and ticket price of the game.

It can be seen that Incheng is the gimmick of Wayne VS champion, which is the biggest selling point of this game on the spot.

Wayne was also well prepared before the game, and Howard in his rookie season played the power forward position.

That said, Wayne will be directly opposite him in this game.

Howard though his skills are rough now...... Well, as if his skills won't be rough in the future.

...... Although his skills are rough, his physical fitness is indeed explosive!

If you take it lightly, you will definitely be deducted by Howard.

Wayne doesn't want to be the backdrop for the top pick, otherwise, the best rookie will not be in contention.

"Tut-tut, today's Wei is a bit serious." In the locker room, Tate chatted with Peyton on the side,

"Hehe, that high school student should be careful to control his temper." Peyton smiled evilly, playing the champion of the same class, can it not be serious?

I'm also serious for me.

Payton has already decided that if Wayne and Howard spray later, he will immediately go up and assist.

Point guard, that's what he's supposed to do.

Wayne walked onto the court with the determination to play Howard, and when the Pacers players took the court, the Magic, wearing blue jerseys, were already warming up.

Steve in the distance. Francis turned to look at Wayne, and his eyes were full of the figure of the Chinese giant.

At this time, Wayne's biggest opponent today, Howard, came over.

If Wayne had faced Okafor today, he would have told Wayne in all seriousness, "I'm not going to lose again, I'm talking about two double-doubles." ”

If Wayne were facing Rashid today, he would have warned Wayne: "Be careful, there's a big book covering me today." If you want to fight, please hit him first. ”

However, as soon as Howard got close to Wayne, he showed his white teeth and smiled like a cartoon character.

"We, your block against Gasol in the last game was so spectacular, I watched it five times! Hey, we're supposed to be teammates at the All-Star Game this year. In the face of the 03 generation, we must perform well!

I know you're a great passer, so don't forget to throw me a few aerial relays when the time comes. ”

Howard shook hands with Wayne, then pulled Wayne hard, pulled him into his arms, and forcibly hugged him.

"Uh...... Good, good, definitely. Wayne was a little confused, probably the least hostile opponent he'd ever faced since playing in the NBA.

Howard is really ...... right now The joy is over.

"Then it's decided, Wei, I should think about it these days, what action to use to dunk the ball in after receiving your pass!"

Howard was so excited, his mind seemed to be all on the rookie game.

What the? You said there was a real regular season game today?

I'm so annoyed, just hurry up and finish it!

Looking at Howard's grin, Wayne's anger after a day was fully vented.

Then this game was played more easily than expected.

As soon as he got on the court, O'Neal Jr. scored a goal on Howard's head with a beautiful turn hook.

But Howard didn't show any feelings of chagrin, and even wanted to laugh a little.

Subsequently, Grant. Hill held the ball and was ready to attack, but at the moment of his breakthrough, he was accurately tackled by Artey's "sticky mouse board" big hand.

Hill, who played only 47 games in the first three seasons combined, returned from injury, and is no longer the invincible Hill he was at the beginning.

He's lost the league's fastest move and the most flashy breakaway, and he doesn't have enough hands to support his three-point shot as a fixed-point shooter.

Atai made a steal and attacked quickly, but Howard, who was chasing after him, fanned the ball out of the bottom line.

Atai was a little sick at the time, and the fast break of the best defensive player is also something you can risk to do?

If Howard had yelled at Atay at this time, then Atay would definitely have just gotten up today.

But when Atai turned his head, he only saw a young man smiling happily.

"This ......" After Ben and Wayne, the third player who can make Artai instantly sick appears.

Subsequently, Xiao Ao continued to make a mistake in the low post, and hit Howard with a turnaround jumper.

Howard still looks indifferent, and it's really annoying to watch.

No wonder O'Neill later commented on Howard: "If he wants to be more dominant, he should put away that clownish smile." ”

You look at Viagra, will I laugh with you? All are directly on the elbow.

After four minutes of the first quarter, Carlisle switched on to the "Indo-City Twin Spray".

As soon as Wayne came up, he shook Howard with a fake throw from mid-range, and then broke through the dunk.

This goal directly ignited the fans at the scene, and Wayne made a clear arrangement for the champion as soon as he came up.

Wayne turned his head and prepared to lash at Howard for two sentences, hoping to make the mentality of this champion urgent.

But......

Looking at that harmless face of humans and animals, Wayne really couldn't speak!

You're so happy!

If you don't rob you, you can't fight with you, you can't find an entry point for such a person.

Switching to the Magic offense, this time, Francis's three-point shot was blocked by Wu Sheng, and he finally hit the iron.

Boss Fu, everyone knows that God has three ghosts.

It is useless for anyone to come when they are gods, and it is useless for anyone to come when they are ghosts, and they can defend themselves.

Francis' shooting choice this time was a bit of a headache in Hill's opinion.

But this is Boss Fu, if you want to make a reasonable move, then you are still called Boss?

On the inside, Wayne got stuck, but the ball bounced a little far, so Howard showed his absolute superiority in athleticism.

He jumped high and grabbed the rebound before Wayne.

"When will the horse egg bounce ability be unlocked?" Wayne could only curse angrily in his heart.

After winning the basketball, Wayne hurriedly raised his arms between the monster and the basket. He was still wondering how Howard would complete this second offense.

Outcome......

Howard directly planned to be strong across Wayne!

Wayne:???

What kind of fairy choice is this, the same as Francis?

Then, Howard's second jump layup hit the basket on the neck.

Magic coach Johnny. The corners of Davis's mouth twitched twice.

"Stay happy Johnny, stay happy." In the end, he had to suppress his anger like this.

Who made that number 12 the future of the team? Even if he plays poorly, he has to be given enough playing time.

Otherwise, it's the coach who gets out.

Howard and Francis combined their swords, making the elegant Hill almost scold his mother several times.

Little Tracy, how can you bear to leave these two guys for me to go by myself, and say that I will go to glory?

It's just that you've been waiting for me for three years, is three years a long time? Is it long?

Well...... It does seem to be quite long.

Although Hill and Turkish forward Turkoglu worked hard, they still couldn't resist Howard and Francis' "no interference, no shot" attack.

By the third minute of the fourth quarter, the game was almost out of suspense.

But at this moment, a small accident happened.

O'Neal Jr. sits on the inside to play Magic center Kevin. Cato accidentally sprained his ankle while turning around, and he was lame.

Tyrant hurriedly rushed up and was about to break with Cato: "Why don't you push harder?" No, how can you do that? ”

Cato raised his arms high: "He fell on his own." ”

"Don't lie to me, am I easy to deceive? Do you think I'm a simple-minded martial artist? ”

Cato:......

"Say, what do you want to do? Shall I call Wayne, or shall I call Wayne. Call him in, you know the consequences. ”

"Ron, it's out, Jermaine really sprained himself." The referee on the side reminded in a whisper.

"Oh, that's fine. Next time, I'll let me know if it's okay to do it sooner. ”

Cato is so innocent: "I said at the beginning that I didn't touch him......"

Only then did he let Cato go, and then ...... Only then did I remember that Xiao Ao was still on the ground.

Xiao Ao looked disdainful, even if you pretend to care about me, you are pretending to be too fake.

Let's ask me about it first!

After confirming that he could not continue the game, Xiao Ao walked to the players' tunnel with the help of Wayne and Foster.

Originally, it was Atai who stood beside Xiao Ao at the beginning, but as soon as Xiao Ao was about to help him, he silently turned around and left......

Lao Tzu can still stand up, are you very disappointed!

"It's a big blow for the Pacers, and hopefully Jermaine is okay. He's been on a hot streak lately, having only scored 55 points in a single game last week.

If he falls, the Pacers' combat effectiveness will definitely drop significantly. "Race scene, Steve. Cole said regretfully.

Although there is basically no suspense in this game with the Magic, there is basically no suspense with or without Xiao Ao.

But then another wave of successive western battles was also difficult to fight.

What do walkers do without a captain?

After a small hiccup, the game continued.

Relying on Francis's 7-of-24 shooting and Howard's 3-of-9 shooting, the Pacers received the warmth of the Magic 96-85 at home.

Howard had 12 points and seven rebounds while shooting just 33 percent from the field.

Wayne scored 17 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks, shooting 52% from the field.

However, the spark of the loss was not as depressed as Okafor, and he still greeted Wayne with a grin, and did not forget to remind: "Don't forget about the rookie game." ”

Wayne now knows why Kobe Bryant and Howard can't get along.

The personalities of those two guys are really too much different.

When you're trying your best to tear your opponent apart, you find your teammates laughing at them.

It's fucking up to think about it.

Despite another victory, Pacers fans couldn't be happier.

Xiao Ao knelt down, which was a bad sign.

Although it doesn't seem serious, the Pacers, who are about to face the Wild West again, will undoubtedly play very hard.

At the same time, the results of the first round of NBA All-Star voting have finally been released.

Okafor couldn't wait to open the voting website to check it out.

And then...... He received 10,000 critical hits from Wayne in the air.
