The reason why Paul is unhappy is very simple, because the limelight has been stolen.

This time in the All-Star Game, Paul wanted to win an All-Star MVP.

This is his second season with the Clippers and a contract year, and he needs something else to support himself beyond his on-court performances.

Originally, he and Griffin were selected as All-Star starters, which was a good publicity for the Clippers.

As a result, Paul was almost squeezed out by Jeremy Lin, and Griffin was directly replaced by Li Liang.

Now Li Liang is in the limelight on the court, and he also robbed Paul of his work and played point guard.

Paul is a competitive man, and the Clippers and Lakers are in Los Angeles, and the two teams have been extremely unequal in the past.

Paul tried to turn this situation around on his own, but was unsuccessful.

Bruce Lee played a big part in this.

In the regular season, he played three times, and he played key games every time, resulting in a 0-3 loss for the Clippers.

When it came to the All-Star Game, the three-point contest was in the limelight, and the world's pressure made him pretend.

Now that the main game is playing like this, it's about to turn into a Bruce Lee dribble show.

It's a pity that Li Liang and Paul are both on the Western All-Star team.

If they are opponents, Paul can still use their strength to target.

teammates on the same team, he really can't pull this face against Li Liang.

The old cannon still has to be faced.

As a result, in the second half, when Paul thought that Li Liang was going to show off the dribble again, he found that he was out of control.

He took the initiative to hand over the ball to Paul to control, and began to be a salted fish himself, crouching in the bottom corner, shooting three-pointers, and making strategies.

The reason is very simple, because Li Liang doesn't want to play anymore.

In the first half, he tried all kinds of good point guard dribbles.

Hardaway, Alstom, Crawford, White Chocolate, Maravich, Iverson.

He's almost done playing it, and these skills can only be played in entertainment competitions after all, and they can't be taken seriously.

So the half-time performance was enough and he didn't want to continue.

The stage should be reserved for those who want to continue performing.

Because of Li Liang's leading role, the stars are not far behind and have come up with their own proud skills.

Even Kobe Bryant began to show off his long-lost difficult hand-to-hand layups in the second half.

He has such an old waist, I don't know if he can eat it.

After five minutes of playing in the second half, Li Liang said hello to Mike Brown and asked him to replace him.

Sitting on the bench, Li Liang wiped his sweat and said, "Mike, don't let me go on later, I'm tired." ”

Brown pushed his glasses: "Enough of it?" ”

"Enough fun, it's not fun, it's not fun."

This is Li Liang's evaluation of the All-Star Game.

It's really nothing fun, and the reason why sports games are wonderful is his confrontation and suspense.

Why is it that for the same game, watching the live broadcast will make people have a heart attack, and watching the video will only feel boring.

It's because there's suspense in the live stream, and you don't know the final outcome of the game.

The video is already known to the result, and then watching the process will be less exciting.

Therefore, in the All-Star Game, winning a three-point king and showing off the dribble in the half, Li Liang felt that it was enough.

In the second half, Mike Brown really didn't send Li Liang on the court again, he sat on the sidelines and watched the whole game.

The crowd was not happy, and by the fourth quarter many fans shouted "Bruce Lee".

Mike Brown looked at Li Liang and found that Li Liang was sitting in his seat, as if ...... Fell asleep.

"Hey, wake up, don't sleep!" Brown nudged Li Liang.

Li Liang opened his eyes in a daze, he felt a little sleepy.

It should be because of the hat on the head.

Fraser said that wearing this hat would be very draining and sleepy.

Li Liang yawned, and when the All-Star Game was played, Li Liang was also the first person.

In the second half, without Li Liang stealing the show, Paul successfully carried the game.

He used his assists and breakthroughs to help the Western All-Stars defeat the Eastern All-Stars by 158-149, a nine-point advantage.

Paul himself had 24 points, 15 assists and three steals, and was named the MVP of the 2013 All-Star Game.

Lifting the MVP trophy and accepting David Stern's evaluation as a "star of stars", the smile on Paul's face was not particularly bright.

Because he always felt that this MVP was given to him by Li Liang.

He thought that one day, he would have to grab an MVP and get a big contract of 40 million.

……

That's how the Houston All-Star Game ended.

For ordinary players and coaches, this time it was a time of entertainment, relaxation and rest.

But for star players, it's actually a lot of consumption.

Li Liang took his three-point contest championship trophy and returned to Los Angeles with Zhu Shu.

The team will have three days to rest, and the NBA regular season will be rekindled on the 20th.

But at this time, on February 18, US time, a bad news came.

Jerry Buss, owner of the Los Angeles Lakers and a legend in the basketball world, has passed away from cancer.

At half past seven this morning, Michael Brysnahand, the chief reporter for Los Angeles, tweeted the news.

"Today is a day of mourning in Los Angeles, and Jerebus has passed away."

The news came very suddenly, because until then, Jerebus had been blocking news of his condition.

He has never been seen at the familiar Lakers home court this season, and his lingering illness has not saved his life, neither beauty nor basketball.

Abdul-Jabbar, Magic, Kobe Bryant and others all went to visit him.

Li Liang also took the time to see the old Bass once before the All-Star break.

I felt that his spirit was okay at that time, but he didn't expect an All-Star Game to pass away.

On the 20th, the Lakers faced the Celtics at home, and at halftime, Bryant expressed his remembrance of Jerichs to the audience.

In this game, the whole Lakers team burst out with huge energy, 118:93, a huge advantage of 25 points swept the old rival Celtics.

This is also a consolation to Jerichbus's spirit in the sky, because when Buss first bought the Lakers, the Lakers' biggest opponent was the Celtics.

On February 21, Jerebuss' memorial service was held at the Nokia Theatre across from the Staples Center.

Presidents David Stern, Jerry West, Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, O'Neal and other Lakers all-time names were in attendance.

Stern delivered a eulogy to Jerebus on behalf of the NBA, and West, Bass's partner Mariani, Kobe Bryant and others took the stage to remember Jerichbus.

As a newcomer to the Lakers, Li Liang certainly won't have such deep feelings for Old Buss.

But he also remembered that it was the old Bass who personally went to the training ground to inspect him and decided to sign with him.

Later, Li Liang and Bass Jr. had some conflicts, and it is said that the old Bass leveled his son behind his back, allowing Li Liang to concentrate on playing in the team.

For this legendary figure, Li conscience has respect in his heart.

Whether ordinary or great, it will eventually return to dust.

Thinking of this, Li Liang felt that he had to play basketball hard and train hard!

If you get old and die in the future, won't you be able to move?

His brain circuit is also magical.

Others will feel more or less empty when they see death, but he feels that he should hurry.

At this time, the Magic on the stage spoke to remember the old Buss, talking about the five championships of the Lakers in the 80s, each of which had Buss' hard work behind it.

Li Liang suddenly thought of the third task in the [City of Angels Book]: the curse of grabbing seven in Boston Garden.

He thought, Bass must have wanted to win the championship in the Boston Garden Square in the '80s, right?

In that case, it's better to help him achieve it once in the mission.
