Chapter 274: All-Star Weekend

Throughout January, the Kings had a solid record.

At the same time, in the grind, several rookies have grown significantly.

DeRozan's ability rating has exceeded 75, including a defensive rating of 79, which is close to the 8o mark, and has become an excellent outside defender.

Cassby originally had a high ability rating, and after half a season, he also broke through the 7o point mark, with an ability rating of 73, including a three-point score of 86, becoming the top scorer in the league.

Hoodan Blair has a slightly lower rating but also has a 67, and with a little grinding, is also an excellent rotation player.

With All-Star Weekend approaching, it's midway through the season.

Chris Bosh, who was selected for the All-Star Game, has been preparing for the All-Star Weekend for a long time, and this is not the first time he has participated in the All-Star Weekend in his career, but it is the first time in his career that he has appeared as an All-Star in the West.

In Chris Bosh's previous games, he averaged 2o.7 points, 1o.1 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game.

Currently, Chris Bosh is fifth on the MVP rankings.

Bosh freed up a lot of offensive pressure and focused more on defense, and Wang tomorrow's training plan for him is also more focused on defense.

As for Bosh's three points, in Wang Mingming's view, it was just ordinary training.

Bosh can pay attention to it, and it is not a big problem to practice the best three-point shooting, and it is not a big problem if he can't practice.

Anyway, Bosh's length of two points is enough to open up space.

Entering February, there was a hint of slackness in the team, and the record declined slightly, and even fell to the top four in the West for a time.

Before the All-Star break, the Kings ushered in a wave of four consecutive wins, and the record returned to the top four in the West.

........

All-Star Weekend in 2o1o was held at the Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Dallas, as the organizer, took great pains to make this All-Star Weekend possible.

This time, the All-Star Weekend was held in a different format, co-hosted by the Mavericks, Cowboys and the City of Dallas, while the new $1.1 billion Cowboys venue had more than 10,000 seats.

Wang will come to Dallas tomorrow and will be greeted by the staff of the all-star organizer when he lands.

This time the All-Star, he also traveled alone, and also brought Gal Gadot with him.

Wang Mingming is 1.85 meters tall, dignified, with broad shoulders and thin waist, handsome eyes, and has been in the position of head coach for a long time.

He wears a simple tracksuit, white Nike sneakers on his feet, and pushes his luggage in his hands.

And Gal Gadot is 1.75 meters tall, with almond eyes like flowers, tall, graceful, covered with a black trench coat, wearing denim trousers, and slender calves.

The two stood together, and a reporter had already rushed over and took a lot of photos in a row.

These photos, in their eyes, are living money, and they may look useless now, but they go back and send them to the editor, saying that they can't use them, and as long as they can use them, they can give them feedback.

The staff stopped the media who wanted to interview them, and the two got into the car.

"Coach Wang Mingming, this time we arranged the Haitian Luxury Hotel in Dallas, which is in the city center, although it has a certain location from the stadium, but the living conditions are very favorable."

"Well, listen to the arrangement of the organizing committee." Wang Ming smiled and nodded.

There is a luxury hotel for free, he is too late to be happy, where does the hotel be far from the stadium? Anyway, the game is not going to end in a day, there is time.

The staff was also very happy with Wang Mingming's cooperation, and after chatting for a few words, they were not so rusty, and began to introduce some Dallas customs to Wang Mingming.

Along the way, Wang saw many promotional slogans for the Mavericks and All-Star Weekend.

"Hey, husband, there are you." At the strong request of Wang Mingming, Gal Gadot has begun to change his words, and his Chinese learning has been intermittent, and the five tones are incomplete, and he has a different flavor to say.

She pointed out the window, outside a shopping mall, there was a huge poster, and the Western All-Star lineup that Wang Mingming was working with was all on it.

A group of stars surrounded Wang Mingming, like stars holding the moon.

The two now communicate on weekdays, using Chinese for simplicity and English, half Chinese and half English.

When Wang saw the poster tomorrow, he smiled, "Anyway, I'm also the head coach of the Western All-Star team, and I should have one or two big posters." ”

"It's synthetic, isn't it?"

"Yes, different teams from the south, south, west, and north, they took pictures and synthesized them with technology."

"There doesn't seem to be much publicity for the Eastern Stars."

"This is Dallas, it's the West, and it will definitely not spend too much energy to promote the Eastern All-Stars, but there will be one, after all, it has to rely on the appeal of the stars to carry out commercial operations."

Wang Mingming patiently explained that many things were speculated by himself.

The staff sent Wang to the hotel tomorrow, and then there were people in the hotel to receive him.

When the hotel staff saw Wang Mingming, they said inexplicably, "Coach Wang, according to the requirements, everything has been arranged." ”

"Arrange what?" Gal Gadot was confused.

Wang Mingming glared at the waiter, then snorted and pulled Gal Gadot upstairs.

The hotel has a huge swimming pool, and Wang Mingming's room is also one of the larger in the hotel, and the two walked out on the 8th floor.

Gail walked ahead of Wang Mingming, room card in hand, looking for a room.

"Found it!"

She cheered, put her key card on the door, then pushed it open and walked in.

.......

Wang Ming smiled behind her.

Sure enough, Gail let out a scream of surprise.

Wang Ming followed and walked in, the whole room was decorated with balloons, rose petals and 1ED lamps, and the air was filled with the smell of perfume.

"Is this what you set up, husband?"

Gail turned to look at Wang Mingming, with a touch of shyness on his face.

"I arranged the staff of the hotel to arrange it, and I want to surprise you."

Wang Mingming laughed and unceremoniously took the credit.

Gail jumped and hung on top of him and kissed him emotionally.

.......

The next day, Wang attended a community event ahead of All-Star Weekend tomorrow.

Community events leading up to each All-Star Game are a common part of the NBA All-Star Game and an important way to show charity and gratitude.

On this day, there were no stars, no millionaires, just a group of athletes who worked hard to share their love with fans and special groups.

Wang Mingming's community activities are arranged in a local community to repair the basketball court.

Wang Mingming, along with All-Star Wade, Yao Ming and others, helped the community straighten the basketball hoops, then cleaned the entire court and repainted the court.

"This year the stadium is crazy, 1o thousand spectators."

Wade shook his head, indicating that this had never happened before.

10,000 spectators per game will break the NBA record for the number of spectators in a single game, and previously, the average NBA game had a maximum of more than 20,000 spectators.

Yao Ming said: "In front of such a large number of spectators, I'm afraid that free throws are a big problem. ”

Wade and the others were a little puzzled, tilting their heads to listen to Yao Ming's explanation.

"Imagine a stadium of 1o people, all of a sudden, silence, and everyone stares at you and watches you take free throws, what is this experience?"

"I'm going to go back and tell my kids about this experience." Millsap smiled wryly.

"Dwyan, I've heard this year that you're in the East for the MVP of this All-Star Weekend?" Millsap took a moment to ask Wade defiantly.

Wade snorted, and even admitted it directly: "Of course, this MVP, we are very eager for it, to be honest, I haven't won the MVP of the All-Star Game yet, and I also want to win this MVP trophy." ”

"If you want to win the MVP in LeBron's team again, it's not easy!" Paul Millsap joked.

Wade was stunned, but he was not angry, and responded with a smile: "LeBron has no interest in MVP this year." ”

Millsap shrugged his shoulders, he didn't know if Wade really didn't understand, or if he deliberately changed the concept, anyway, that's not what he was trying to say.

After volunteering in the community, they had dinner at the hotel in the evening.

In the midst of the staggered planning, the all-stars on the court, the atmosphere off the field is relatively harmonious, of course, there must be people who don't like each other, but in the general stream, it is not so prominent.

The All-Star Weekend is divided into several parts.

Some of the carnival activities are part of the show, the Rookie Challenge is part of it, the Saturday Night part is part of it, and the All-Star Game is part of it.

This year, except for the All-Star Game, the other games were played at the home of the Dallas Mavericks.

The Rookie Challenge is another event that has attracted more attention.

But because of the injury of last year's No. 1 rookie Derrick Rose, the attention has dropped slightly this year.

The sophomore team this year has Michael Beasley Miami Heat, Mark Gasol Memphis Grizzlies, O.J. Mayo Memphis Grizzlies, Danilo Gallinari Houston Rockets, Eric Gordon??? Los Angeles Clippers, Brook Lopez, New Jersey Nets, Kevin Loew?? Minnesota Timberwolves, Derrick Rose-Chicago Bulls (Morrow bench), Russell Westbrook, Oklahoma City Thunder.

Some of the players who were selected to the first-year team last year did not make the second-year team this year.

Through a year of hard work and growth, the rookie players have gradually distanced themselves from each other.

This year's first-year players have a large number of defenders, and the final list is released, and defenders occupy half of the country. Omi Casbi Sacramento Kings, DeMar DeRozan Sacramento Kings, Stephen Curry State Warriors, Tyrek Evans Toronto Raptors, Jonny Flynn? Minnesota Timberwolves, Ty Gibson? Chicago Bulls, James Harden? Oklahoma City Thunder, Brandon-Jennings, Milwaukee Bucks, Phoenix Suns.

First-year players shine, with Jennings scoring 55 points in the front, Chamberlain, the ancient monster, and Tyrek Evans hitting 2o+5+5 in the rear, comparable to Jordan and James.

But almost all of these players are guards, and the only real interior player is Ty Gibson, which is also a new NBA record.

This will not be the case in the All-Star Game, because the All-Star Game is still based on position.

In the Rookie Challenge, all 18 players are selected by the NBA's assistant coaches, and each team is allowed to cast one vote, and the two teams will be coached by assistant coaches from the All-Star Game.

Griffin didn't play because of injury, Tabit lost himself in the Grizzlies, and Harden barely kept the last fig leaf of the top three, but this time, the selection of the top three picks has been criticized.

Wang Mingming thinks the most interesting thing about the Rookie Challenge is that in the midcourt of this year's Rookie Challenge, DeRozan and Gordon will compete for the last spot in the slam dunk contest.

Originally, he thought that with DeRozan's previous performance, signing up for the slam dunk contest was not a sure thing, but he didn't expect to kill an Eric Gordon halfway, and the round-faced Deng had to participate in the slam dunk contest.

At this time, the round-faced Deng had not been seriously injured, and he flew away, and his bounce power was not inferior to DeRozan.

DeRozan has the style of Carter, and the duel between the two was decided by voting by netizens.

In the end, DeRozan won by a wide margin.

Round-faced Deng shouted that something was wrong, among the fans who voted for Gain, I am afraid that many of them are Chinese fans, and the voting ability of Chinese fans has been seen by the entire NBA.

He said unconvinced: "It's just because of Coach Wang, I didn't lose to him when it comes to dunks." ”

But either way, Delo's approval of being the last player to enter the slam dunk contest became a fact.

The other three, namely "regulars" Nate Robinson, Gerard Wallace and Shannon Brown.

At the Rookie Challenge, Westbrook slashed 4O points, fought hard, and was ready to be like Durant, with high scores, bullying and bullying newcomers, and winning the MVP of the Rookie Challenge.

"Ross isn't here, isn't it up to me?"

What Westbrook didn't expect was that this rookie was ferocious and unusual.

In the end, the first-year rookies defeated the second-year team 14o 128, Evans had 26 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, and Jennings had 22 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds.

But neither of them is the main thing, no one expected that Omi Cosby made 14 three-pointers from the outside and scored 35 points, which was very ferocious, and won the victory from the sophomore players, ending the rookie's seven-game losing streak against the sophomore team.

Wang Ming applauded his disciples, and when the award was finally presented, he ran up to the podium and took a group photo with everyone.

The Rookie Challenge ended, and DeMar DeRozan pulled the corner of Rawang's clothes tomorrow.

"What's wrong, DeMar?"

"Coach, I'm going to play tomorrow, do you have any good dunk ideas, I don't have a good brain, I really can't think of any good moves."
