On January 23, 2015, New York time, at 0:00 hour, the NBA All-Star voting channel officially closed. At the same time, the league officially announced the starting list for the 2015 New York All-Star Game.

The Golden State Warriors' core Steven. Curry overtook LeBron in the final minute. James, who was elected the All-Star vote king with 1513324 votes, naturally firmly occupied a place in the starting lineup in the West.

2015 All-Star Game Starting Lineup -

East: Paul. Gasol (Chicago Bulls, 974177 votes), Cameron. Anthony (New York Knicks, 647005 votes), LeBron Brown. James (Cleveland Cavaliers, 1470483 votes), John. Wall (Washington Wizards, 886368 votes), Kyle. Lowry (Toronto Raptors, 805,290 votes)

West: Mark. Gasol (Memphis Grizzlies, 795121 votes), Anthony Brown. Davis (New Orleans Pelicans, 1369911 votes), Blake. Griffin (Los Angeles Clippers, 700615 votes), Kobe Bryant. Bryant (1152402 votes), Stephen. Curry (1513324 votes)

The most surprising of all is Kyle. Lowry went from failing to finish in the top five in the Eastern Conference backcourt in the first round of voting until he overtook Dwyane in the final moments. Wade made it to the All-Star starting lineup, and it's hard to imagine what happened in that vein...... Even though the Raptors have a good record this season, Lowry's votes have risen incredibly, and many people are wondering why Demar, who has also contributed so much to the Raptors. DeRozan's votes have risen far less quickly than his backcourt partner?

As the number of votes was overtaken, Dwyan. Wade unfortunately fell out of the starting lineup of the Eastern Conference All-Star, but his 789839 ranked third in the Eastern Conference backcourt and should not be a problem to get into the bench.

Wade is followed by Addison, the Chinese rookie with 780114 votes, and will be behind Carey. Irving's votes have opened up quite a bit.

Plus Chris. Bosh is fifth in the Eastern Conference frontcourt with 542006 votes, a situation that excites Heat management. Even though the Big Three era is over, there is still a good chance that the Heat will have three players selected as All-Stars at the same time this season!

The media in Miami began to build momentum for the three players of the Heat team who were eligible to be selected as All-Stars at the same moment as the voting deadline, and even a huge poster of the three Addison was hung on the outside of the American Airlines arena, so that all the Heat fans felt excited when they saw it!

In fact, Addison knows very well in his heart that the selection of Bosh and Wade as All-Stars is basically a sure thing, these two are regulars of All Star, and their abilities and qualifications are there. The Miami media is so the pitch, but it's actually more about building momentum for Addison.

Being named to the All-Star team in their rookie season is an absolute honor for the players and is a testament to their outstanding talent and strength. At the same time, it also means greater business benefits and opportunities, which is not only Sam. Bernie knows that the Heat's management has been waiting for it for a long time.

However, propaganda is propaganda, and if the player's own ability is not convincing, no matter how hard the media trys, it will be in vain.

Addison is averaging 15.8 points, 10.2 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 2.4 steals and 0.4 blocks per game so far this season, while averaging just 2.0 turnovers per game. He helped the Miami Heat to a 26-13 record and sit fourth in the East. During Wade's absence due to injury, he led the team to a 4-4 record as the outside core and maintained the team's ranking in the Eastern Conference.

Such a performance even compared to Kyle, who was among the All-Star starters. Lowry is not far behind, if not better. The Raptors point guard has not only 17.2 points, 6.8 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 1.6 steals this season, but the Raptors are still below the Heat with a 24-15 record.

The ability of the Chinese rookie has proven that he is worthy of the All-Star team, and it is precisely because of the ability that the Miami media will spare no effort to promote him.

Those who are capable are entitled to the corresponding honors, aren't they?

On the night of the All-Star starting lineup announcement, the Heat welcomed the Indiana Pacers at home.

The Pacers, who have a 15-29 record, caused a lot of problems for the Miamins in the game, and the last time the two teams met, the Pacers' main point guard George Bush. Hill and power forward David. West was sidelined with injuries, so the Heat got an easy win.

Nowadays George. Hill and David. West both returned to their positions, except for Paul. The Pacers are fully healthy except for George. The Pacers, who have always had a strong team background, are quite obsessed with the desire to win, and they are doing their best on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and they are literally fighting with playoff intensity.

Roy. Hibbert's athletic form has weakened from the previous two years, but as long as he's still in the restricted area, the Pacers' protection of the basket is very strong.

And George. Hill, although the Spurs-turned-point guard has never been selected as an All-Star, Addison was surprised to find that the opponent is quite strong, both offensively and defensively. In three seasons with the Spurs, Popovich has brought George Brown. Hill has become a very good point guard, and with the experience gained over the years, Hill's on-court play has made Addison feel extremely difficult.

The man who pushed the game's winning balance in favor of the Heat was Ruhl. Deng and Dwyan. Wade, the two of them were the team's best players in this game. Ruhr. Deng completely fooled the Pacers' small forward Solomon with his skillful and erratic off-ball running. Hill scored 25 points with sharp air cuts and shooting.

Dwyan. Wade came on with the second team in the final two minutes of the first quarter, and Pacers point guard CJ Myers initially thought Wade had just returned from injury and was a veteran of injury who didn't need to spend too much time on defense. However, 'The Flash' came on the pitch and stunned his opponents with his first touch of the ball.

The right side of the free throw line is connected to Norris. Kerr's pass, Wade slapped the basketball hard, J. Myers moved sideways and just blocked Wade's body, and found that the 'Flash' quickly turned around and pulled the ball, leaning on himself with strong upper body strength to break through from the other side to the inside!

Wade, who squeezed defenders to grab the inside, attracted Roy. Hibbert, when the center stepped out of the reasonable collision zone to make up the defense, Wade made a sharp jump step with the ball in both hands, and easily flashed from Hibbert's side to the basket.

The 'Flash' handed the ball to his left hand, picked up a backhand basket in a reasonable collision zone, just in time to avoid Hibbert's turn and block, and picked the basketball into the net! At the same time, it also caused the Pacers center to receive the second foul of the game and have to add a free throw!

CJ Myers was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that a veteran who had just recovered from an injury didn't need any adaptation, and immediately burst out with strong combat power on the field!

"You've got to have a little more to defend with, man, I'm a superstar!" Wade, who walked to the free throw line, smiled and taught Miles a lesson, feeling very good, but the next second he missed the free throw......

The 'Flash' scored 17 points in a row in the comeback battle, whether it was CJ Myers or Rodney who came on later. Starkey can't contain the Heat's soul.

With Wade and Ruhr. Deng's brilliant play gave the Heat a 104-97 win over the Indiana Pacers at home, putting them one step away from the playoff zone they craved.

"Meet Eddie, this is Lionel. Mr. Buxon. He is one of the most reputable psychologists in Florida and an excellent counselor who has solved countless heart problems. Spoelstra pushed open the door to his office and smiled at Addison.

It's been a day since the win over the Pacers, and the Heat's management has been quite efficient, and after getting Addison's approval, they quickly hired the right psychiatrist.

Buxon is a black man, but he appears to be on the thin side, about 180 centimeters tall, and wears a pair of half-rimmed eyes. It looks like he was between 40 and 50 years old, but the age of a black man is difficult to tell by his appearance, and Addison is not sure.

"Mr. Buxon is in Alonzo. Mourning had kidney surgery, and during the time when Dwyanne was seriously injured in '08, he counseled both of them and did a good job of resolving their mental barriers at that time. The head coach introduced Addison to the well-mannered-looking psychiatrist in front of him.

"You're exaggerating my past, Erik, it's going to make me blush." Lionel. Buxon smiled and shook Spoelstra's hand, then looked at Addison, "Addison, it's an honor to meet you...... Maybe I shouldn't say that, I've watched you live before. As a Florida-born veteran, I'm a big fan of the Heat. ”

Buxon's voice had a typical black sense of heaviness, and Addison couldn't tell whether the other party was sincere or polite. He glanced at the entire office and saw that there were no instruments resembling recovery treatment.

"I can see that you are resistant to this so-called psychotherapy from the bottom of your heart," Buxon kept smiling, "but don't worry, I'm just a counselor, and all I have to do is talk to you." ”

As he spoke, he motioned for Addison to sit in a chair at his desk, and motioned to Spoelstra, "Eric, do you mind if I talk to your players alone?" ”

The head coach left the office and Lionel left the office. Buxon walked behind the desk and sat down, rummaging through his handbag as he said, "Honestly, Addison, you're a very special case I've seen. Although acquired aphasia is a mental illness, it can be stimulated to the point that it is impossible to speak, and I am afraid that the source of stimulation is also quite terrifying. ”

The young man's mouth pursed slightly, he was still very reluctant to talk to outsiders about this matter.

"But we're not going to talk about these things yet, and what you need to do now is simple......" Buxon pulled out a stack of pictures from his bag and spread them out on the table.

"Addison, can you describe to me what is depicted on these pictures?"
