This year, the All-Star voting also went through several rounds of competition.

The Western All-Stars have also changed a lot this year, Chen Yu was very high at the beginning of the All-Star vote, and once became the top three in the league in the middle, which is almost much from the popularity king.

In the second half, although the Lakers' record has declined, with a wave of consecutive wins, the record has risen again, and Chen Yu's data is still as gorgeous and efficient as ever, so Chen Yu is still in the top two in the West, second only to Durant.

Even in the entire league, Chen Yu's voting data is second only to James and Durant, becoming the third vote in the league!

This data on a sophomore rookie, an international player, makes people feel quite magical, and it is not without controversy, at least before many people are talking about whether there is a factor of Chinese mixed in.

But these claims were quickly refuted.

In fact, it has been refuted many times before - everyone said that "a player who averages 30+10 per game is still a guard, and with the Lakers who everyone thought were going to be bad, it is not an exaggeration to say that such a player has the top three votes in the league!" ”

There are too many such statements, and no one is slowly questioning or what's wrong with the voting anyway.

By the time of the All-Star Game, Chen Yu's scoring and assist statistics have also declined due to reduced playing time and other teams, but now his statistics are still quite scary 39 minutes per game, averaging 33.7 points, 11.3 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 2.87 steals per game!

Moreover, Chen Yu's overall shooting rate is now super high among guards, and it can even be said to be a unique existence: 49.8%, and Chen Yu can shoot 11 three-pointers per game, and can hit 5 three-pointers per game, and his three-point shooting rate has reached 45.5%, which still makes many people feel a heartfelt shock.

You know, although the three-point shot has also developed over the years, it has always been an auxiliary means, and the closer you get to the basket, the easier it is to score, which is the consensus of everyone.

But now Chen Yu is gradually setting off a trend, a trend of starting to shoot three-pointers.

Anyway, a lot of guards are starting to shoot three-pointers now, because they also see the impact of Chen's three-point shot on the game.

This is also because of the cooperation of the Lakers' tactical system, so many teams understand the power of the three-point shot in the game.

The point guard in the Western Conference this year is second only to Chen Yu, Curry, the league's No. 1 point guard this year, Paul has been injured and missed many games, and Curry's popularity is getting higher and higher. And Curry is also a player who is very good at shooting three-point shots, he is very similar to Chen Yuqiufeng before his body has not become particularly strong, and now there are a group of young people growing up in Golden State, everyone has seen that Curry's three-point shots are becoming more and more accurate, and they are more and more able to affect the game.

Now Curry is also able to shoot almost 4 three-pointers per game, and his average points per game are already at the level of 23 points, Chen Yu and Curry are influencing more and more league teams and league players, and even beginning to influence more players who have not yet entered the NBA.

Chen Yu is using three-pointers to influence the game, and the data of shooting 5 three-pointers in a game makes people feel refreshing, which is also a high help for him to be in the top three of the All-Star selection now.

Moreover, Chen Yu also signed up for the three-point shooting contest this year, and the league also directly selected Chen Yu.

On January 24, the NBA has directly announced this year's All-Stars.

Chen Yu was impressively on the list and became the starting guard on the western side.

Because the All-Star Game has a lot to consider, the stars aren't ranked by point guards and shooting guards, but by forwards and guards. Chen Yu naturally became the starting guard in the West, and the last starters on the West side were Chen Yu, Curry, Durant, Griffin, and Love.

The starters on the Eastern side are Irving, Wade, George, Anthony, James.

The head coach of this year's Western Conference side is Thunder coach Brooks.

Chen Yu was selected as an All-Star player for the first time in his career, and becoming an All-Star is not only good, in fact, it is also an honor, and it is also an important weight for many players to get the next big contract, and entering the All-Star also means that some players can get more contracts such as advertising endorsements, which is still quite weighty.

Chen Yu also won the first relatively hard honor in his career.

After this first news came out, the basketball system did not directly hand over the points to Chen Yu as soon as possible, but kept waiting, and Chen Yu estimated that it would not arrive until the eve of the All-Star Game.

Before the All-Star Game began, a relatively interesting news was suddenly exposed on the league's side, which ignited the nerves of many people and made many people find it particularly interesting.

The content of the news is:

"NBA officials revealed that Lakers player Chen Yu had applied to participate in the slam dunk contest, but was rejected by the league!"

Hearing the news, many people laughed wildly.

The variety of comments is also particularly interesting.

"Chen Yu wanted to apply for a three-point game, but the application was wrong, and he shot in the wrong place, right?"

"This, seriously, I wouldn't argue if Chen Yu is the best point guard right now, because I think it's okay...... But if you want to say that Chen Yu is a dunk player and can participate in the slam dunk contest, then even if you put a gun at my head, I will not admit it with a bad conscience......"

"God, what kind of operation is Chen Yu? Now, although Chen Yu is not what happened on the court, I suggest that O'Neill can choose it into the Big Five, because it's really funny hahaha! ”

"What does Chen Yu think? I don't understand! But it's so much fun! Fortunately, the NBA official didn't show the funny and didn't really let him participate, otherwise it would be a little embarrassing. ”

"I think it would be fun if the NBA really agreed!"

Chen Yu also saw the news, and immediately died of shame.

In fact, at that time, he thought that if he could be selected for the All-Star Game, he would be able to add points to the bounce, and then he could go to the slam dunk contest to have a good experience, but what he never expected was that the league directly refused, and what he didn't expect was that this actually became a news, and it was quite popular!

It's really embarrassing!
