On Friday, February 11, 2000, the 1999-2000 NBA All-Star Rookie Challenge will kick off at the Golden State Warriors' home arena: Oakland Arena. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The 1999 draft is the worst year in recent years, not to mention that compared with the special years of 84 and 96, even the 98 season, the 99 season is a little worse than these draft years, the best of this year's rookies is Brand, Francis and Odom, in addition to these three, among all 58 rookies, only 4 have just scored double-doubles, compared with the stars of previous years, this year's draft is also much bleaker, and this year's rookie challenge is also considered to be no suspense, Because the difference in strength between the two sides is too great.
Last year's rookie Vince Carter entered the All-Star Game directly with the glory of the Eastern Conference ticket king, and even then the second-year rookie rookie lineup still has Dirk? Nowitzki, Paul? Pierce, Jason? Williams, Mike? Bibby, Michael? Dixon is a popular rising star in the league, and the rest of Reeve? Lafrentz, Catino? Mobley, Michael? Olovo Kandi is also a fierce player.
And on the first-year side, Elton Brand, Steve Francis and Ramare Odom can be called new stars, and the rest Andre? Miller, James? Posey, Meng Xu, Todd? McCloch, Wally? Szebiak, even the parallel champion of the 2nd grade team Michael just by looking at the data? Olovo Candi is not as good as Todd? McCulloch is even funnier, averaging 3.7 points and 2.6 rebounds per game, and I don't know how this guy was selected as a rookie All-Star.
For this year's All-Star Rookie Challenge, the head coaches of both teams were Jim Clemens, assistant coach of Phil Jackson, and Rick Callisley, assistant coach of Larry Bird.
The starting lineup of the Year 2 team is Denver Nuggets center Reeve Zlafren, who is 2.11 meters tall and weighs 115 kilograms, and can contribute 13 points, 8 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game in 30 minutes of playing time this season.
The starting power forward is the famous German tank Dirk Nowitzki, who is currently averaging 18 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2 blocks and 2.5 assists per game this season, and has become the most talented white player after Larry Bird, and is also the successor of Larry Bird, the Celtics and Dallas Mavericks because of Dirk Nowitzki's belonging, and the facts once again prove the cardinal's extraordinary vision.
The starting small forward is Paul Pearce, one of the Celtics' twin stars, who averaged 19.5 points, 5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.1 steals per game this season.
The shooting guard is Michael from the Vancouver Grizzlies? Dixon, who is averaging 18.5 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 assists per game so far this season, is Michael? Dixon also managed to rise to the top and became the boss of the Vancouver Grizzlies.
The point guard is also Mike Bibby from the Vancouver Grizzlies, who is averaging 15 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds per game this season. Dixon formed the league's youngest backcourt combination.
And on the first-year team, the starting center is Todd from the Philadelphia 76ers? McCloche, who averaged 3.7 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 0.7 blocks per game this season, is funny to say, a player like this is the best center among all rookies this season, it's really a world style.
The starting power forward is this year's top pick, Elton Brand from the Bulls, Elton Brand played 20+10 super god data in his rookie season, but he was not favored by a number of brick celebrities, the reason is that his naked height is only 2.01 meters, but there is no ****** like Barkley, he is very disadvantaged in the power forward position, this season when he meets excellent players in the same position, he is very struggling, and in the first meeting with the Spurs, he was also easily beaten by Tim Duncan. If you go to play small forward, Brand, who weighs 115 kilograms, is not flexible enough, and Brand's mid-to-long-range shooting is not good, especially the 3-point ability is almost 0.
The starting small forward is Ramal Odom, who is known as the second Magician, Odom, who plays for the Los Angeles Clippers, can contribute 16.5 points, 8 rebounds, and 4.5 assists per game this season.
The scoring guard is Meng Xu from the Spurs, although Meng Xu's position on the court is a small forward, but the same position has a player like Odom, as a rookie starter selected by all team coaches, it is obviously impossible to play as a substitute, and among this year's first-year rookie All-Stars, whether it is Wally Szebiak or James Posey, is not an orthodox scoring guard, so Meng Xu, who has an excellent 3-point ability, is placed in the position of scoring guard.
The last point guard is this year's star show, Steve Francis from the Rockets, who has averaged 19 points, 5.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 2 steals per game so far this season.
On the first-year team, although they are on the same team, there is a clear distinction between the eight rookies, Meng Xu, Szebiak, and James Posey sit together, Odom and Francis are relatively close, and Brand and Todd from the East? McLoach sat together.
As the best player this season, Elton Brand thinks that he should be the boss of this team, and this year's rookie game MVP is naturally in his bag, and the rest of the people have to be their own little brother and assist themselves, Todd, who is also from the East? McCloch was the first to agree, but Steve Francis and Ramare Odom did not see it that way, both of them are now core players in their respective teams, and they are still in the young secondary two period, these two are naturally very unconvinced, so the two also temporarily formed an alliance to join forces against Brand.
Immortals fight, mortals suffer, for the dispute between them, Meng Xus Zebiak and James Posey are neutral, no one supports it, because they know that with their current strength, they can't be the boss of this team, let alone lead the team to win and win the MVP, so several people are also waiting for the coach's arrangement.
