"Awakened Eastern Power!"

"On the night of the new career score, Huaxia Yi publicly responded to the all-star vote!"

"I don't think I'm going to be an All-Star!"

ESPN's official tweet pushed three news in a row, all of which were videos related to Yi Jianlian.

With ESPN's influence in the NBA, it has naturally attracted huge attention, but this time it is different from the previous one-sided rhythm of public opinion, and there is everything to say:

"Wow, this Lakers vs. Bucks game is so exciting, the brother who didn't watch this game suggests hurry up and watch the replay, really, this should be the best game so far in '08!"

"Yi's outburst was without warning, but why do I think this outburst is more like Yi's silent response?"

"Heh, it's just that you suddenly stepped on shit luck, and you dare to say something big? Forgot what your hit rate was like in the previous month? More than half of the league's outside line is more accurate than you, and I'm embarrassed to say that I have the strength to be an All-Star! ”

There are also a lot of comments from the big names below these tweets:

"Wow, my brother is amazing, I have to admit that I'm looking forward to being an All-Star with my brother right now!" – Michael Reid.

Reed averaged 24.6 points per game this season, and during Yi Jianlian's slump, he did his best to take on the offensive responsibility of the Bucks.

Even if he can't make the All-Star starter with such a performance, he can definitely enter the All-Star as a substitute.

So when he said this, it was more like responding to questions for Yi Jianlian: No matter what you say, anyway, I agree with what my brother said, my brother has an all-star level!

"Easy to blow" Max Pierce also commented at the bottom: Surprise, I have to say that last night was a night full of surprises, and the easy one I am familiar with is back! No, it should be said that it has become more domineering and is back!

Of course, there are also those who hold on to Yi Jianlian's last mistake.

Bigmouth Buckley: "Yi Jianlian is still very young, it can be seen from his final foul, he let his entire effort go to waste, I'm not saying he's bad, but he can obviously get better, and before he gets better, the All-Star starter is still a bit too heavy an honor for him!" ”

Well, Barkley is also Shi Lezhi, all kinds of risking death diss.

However, there are many netizens who agree with him.

This also made Yi Jianlian see the fact that although he scored 44 points and was still in the Staples Center, it did not make others change their opinion of him like this.

"It's good that I said everything I wanted to say earlier!"

Yi Jianlian didn't have to respond so bluntly, but in the past month and a half, the abuse of netizens made him understand a truth: you should be tough when you should respond, this is the United States, if you save face for others too much, you will only lose face!

They still prefer players who are confident enough to be proud.

In that case, then I should also know how to speak up for myself! Let this group of dogs see clearly what kind of performance the object they have been slandering has played!

Yi Jianlian's interview after the Bucks' game against the Lakers was sent back to China, and such a strong declaration of sovereignty caused a large applause, and at the same time inspired the enthusiasm of Chinese fans to continue voting.

Yi Jianlian has already spoken, he wants to be an All-Star, and he also thinks that his strength can be an All-Star!

In this case, I didn't say it, as a Chinese fan, I can only vote to express my support.

The official backstage of the NBA All-Star voting, Yi Jianlian, who was originally ranked first among the big forwards in the East, once again soared at a terrifying rate.

Garnett and Bosh, who were already somewhat pressing, were pulled apart again.

"What to do? What to do? Is it true that Yi Jianlian can be an all-star starter? ”

"What to do? Hurry up and arrange the next home game of the Bucks as a national live broadcast, hurry up! ”

"Huh? That's not good! ”

There are two attitudes within the alliance at this time.

On the one hand, because of the surge in Yi Jianlian's votes, the all-star power forward in the east is likely to fall on Yi Jianlian's head, and the all-star special team that has a deep headache is as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

But on the other hand, Yi Jianlian suddenly broke out in Staples, scoring 44 points, setting a new career scoring record, and once again blowing a "Chinese rookie storm" in the United States, which attracted great attention in the United States, and it was a good opportunity to expand the influence of the NBA.

Fans, especially fans in the United States, what they like to watch most is this kind of drama of the return of the strong and the rise of the weak.

For the fans, scolding is scolding, as long as he can get up, I hit myself in the face, no problem!

Fans are ratings, fans want to watch, and arranging a live broadcast in the United States has become an inevitable thing.

It's just that in this way, once Yi Jianlian plays an extraordinary performance in the national live broadcast, it will only make his position as an All-Star Eastern starter more and more consolidated.

That's not what the All-Star task force wants to see.

These two very different attitudes towards Yi Jianlian caused chaos within the alliance, and one Yi Jianlian caused a controversy that no one expected.

In the end, it was the All-Star team that compromised, and after David Stern's order, the Bucks' next home game was officially upgraded to the national broadcast level, which became the highlight of the day.

Coincidentally, the Bucks played the Hawks at home on this day.

Yi Jianlian's first home game after a month and a half of silence suddenly broke out, or in the case of live broadcast in the United States, he faced his old enemy Al Horford again.

This has made the topic of interest in this game surge.

In the end, this game was undoubtedly the most watched game of all NBA games that day, and the Orlando Magic vs. Miami Heat on the same day did not have the high ratings of this game.

Atlanta, and markets like Milwaukee, could be the most-watched game on any given day, something David Stern never thought would have imagined.

It also strengthened his belief that the NBA's globalization is indeed the best way to increase its influence in the four major sports events in the United States.

The Hawks are no longer the Hawks of a month and a half ago, and it was probably the first meeting between the Bucks and the Hawks that made the Hawks' management see the potential of Horford, and also saw the hope that the Hawks could play well this season, and they acquired the "White Devil" McBibby through a trade shortly after.

The No. 1 position among the league's active players was the core member of the gorgeous king that year.

His arrival also officially solved the situation of the Eagles' long-term weakness in the No. 1 position, and also made the Eagles' offense orderly.

His most visible manifestation of the Hawks' improvement is in their rankings, which moved from eighth to sixth in the East in '08, and they haven't lost against any Eastern Conference team since '08.

That's what Mike Bibby has changed for the Eagles.

It's just that this one they lost!

Yi Jianlian played strongly, shooting 13 of 18, 4 of 6 free throws, scoring 30 points and 7 rebounds, leading the Bucks to complete the season home double against the Hawks.

After the game, Horford, who had a double-double of 14 points and 11 rebounds in this game, was full of praise for Yi Jianlian: "I said before that he has great potential, and now I want to say that he has fulfilled all his potential, and he played an All-Star level performance tonight!" ”
