At the end of January, Sun Yue was once again re-elected as the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month, and his personal data did not change much after more than 40 games, averaging 31.8 minutes per game, contributing 18.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 9.7 assists, 2.1 steals, 1.1 blocks and 2.3 turnovers, shooting 47.3% from the field, 40.6% from three-point range, and 88.1% from the free throw line.

Now Sun Yue is already on the list of the league, ranking 32nd in the scoring list, this ranking is a bit low, but Sun Yue is second in the assist list. Ranked third on the steals list, these two lists alone are enough to double Sun Yue's value, plus the Hawks have now rushed to sixth in the East under the leadership of Sun Yue, plus the bonus of the youngest Mr. Triple-Double just gotten, he broke into the top ten for the first time in the MVP list, and has been ranked ninth.

On February 7, the Hawks lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers at home, and the triple-double data of 32 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists of "Little Emperor" James was also better than Sun Yue's "quasi-triple-double" data of 18 points, 8 rebounds and 11 assists.

Two days later, the Hawks beat the Sacramento Kings at home, and the first half of the season was over for the Hawks, with their next regular season game not starting until after All-Star Weekend.

The Hawks have a 26-20 record in 46 games in the first half of the season, temporarily sitting in sixth place in the Eastern Conference.

Eastern Division Rankings –

1. Detroit Pistons (37-10).

2. Miami Heat (33-13).

3. New Jersey Nets (33-14).

4. Cleveland Cavaliers (29-18).

5. Washington Wizards (28-18).

6. Atlanta Hawks (26-20).

7. Indiana Pacers (26-21).

8. Milwaukee Bucks (25-22).

In addition to the top three teams in the Eastern Conference, the next teams are only one or two games away from each other, and the Hawks still have a good chance of rushing to fourth. Avoiding a difficult Nets in the first round is also their goal.

If they meet the Pistons and Nets who restrained them in the first round, because the Hawks relied too much on Sun Yue, and both the Pistons and Nets had point guard defense experts Kidd and Billups to limit Sun Yue, it would be difficult to break through the second round.

The next week, the NBA will enter its annual All-Star Celebration.

The All-Star Weekend is a three-day event, with the NBA Masters and Rookie Challenge on the first day; On the second day, there will be a shooting star competition, a skills competition, a three-point competition, and a slam dunk competition; The final day was the finale of the East-West All-Star Game.

Sun Yue will need to participate in the Rookie Challenge on the first day and the All-Star Game on the final day.

Let's start with the first day of All-Star Weekend, the NBA All-Star Game is a huge basketball banquet, where not only fans and NBA players enjoy a basketball feast, but also a large number of stars in other fields. Especially considering that some of the local entertainment and sports stars are NBA fans, and the league has also set up a "celebrity basketball game" during All-Star Weekend, inviting stars from outside the NBA to team up to play.

This event is 100% star-studded. Each name is as loud as an NBA superstar. The league has also taken great pains to play this event, with a formal format, a dedicated team head coach and general manager, and a special MVP award.

The second Rookie Challenge is a showcase for the league's up-and-comers. The rules are as follows: 9 rookies this year and 9 rookies from last year will each form a team to play. Each team is staffed with a coach, assistant coach, and trainer. The winning team members will each receive a prize of $7,500. The losing team receives $5,000 per player.

Sun Yue arrived in Houston on Thursday morning, earlier than the average All-Star...... Because he still has his rookie task to complete...... He was named to the 10-man roster for the first-year rookie team.

"I hate it when the league turns All-Star Weekend into a three-day game."

Chris. As soon as Paul saw Sun Yue, he complained: "In the past, there were only competitions on Saturdays and Sundays, but now it is simply squeezing." We simply don't have time to rest. ”

Sun Yue smiled bitterly: "Man, I'm the one who should complain more." I have games on Friday and Sunday. On Saturday, when I didn't have a race, my business representative gave me a notice sheet with twenty-three itineraries, and I was so desperate that I probably wouldn't have had more than fifteen hours of sleep all weekend combined. ”

As he spoke, he put a small sapling into the pit, and Chris. Paul began to fill in the earth...... Two of the best point guards of the new generation accepted the NBA's offer to plant trees in the community.

Fortunately, this is just a show-like event...... I planted a few trees, took a few photos with the people, and then left the place for the next event, after some interviews as usual.

The next day, "The All-Star Rookie Game is entertainment, and everyone relaxes and plays." First-year head coach Sidneyowe put it very lightly: "It's a farewell to youth, and the rules of the rookie game are exactly the same as those of the NCAA, and it would be nice to think of it as a college farewell show." ”

The locker room was full of giggling, and everyone was chatting with their familiar teammates.

No one took the rookie game seriously, otherwise it wouldn't have been put on Friday.

"Listen, guys. We have to cheer up, the first grade has lost to the second graders for three years in a row. We're not just here to lose. "Luther. Hyde suddenly walked to the center of the locker room and cheered loudly: "We must break this spell!" ”

Sun Yue and Paul exchanged glances, and it was clear that neither of them thought that Luther. Hyde is qualified to say that.

However, Hyde continued to chatter.

Delong. Williams is very supportive of his college teammates, and he's working hard to get along with it.

Others are a little less interested.

Luther. With Hyde's status as the host alone, it is difficult to convince the public. He didn't have any famous works.

The scene was very embarrassing for a while.

Out of kindness, Paul couldn't bear to see Hyde so embarrassed, so he took the initiative to stand up and said, "I agree with Hyde's proposal. Sidney was right, it was a farewell to college life, and we couldn't afford to lose to a team led by high school students. ”

Paul's words caused laughter in the locker room, and everyone knew that Paul was making fun of Dwight in the second grade. Howard, Howard landed in the NBA without college.

While laughing in the locker room, Sun Yue glanced at his teammates, except for Bogut of the Bucks, everyone else was defeated by his own in college...... It's a bit difficult to unite them.
