All-Star Weekend is over, and the Grizzlies are back together.

For this All-Star Game, there is not much topic in the final game, but there is still a lot of discussion in the outside world, and a post in the Hoop forum area is the most representative.

"In terms of data, the best performers in this All-Star Game are a group of young players born in the 75s, does this mean that the old players in the 60s have withdrawn from the mainstream circle? Another: Discuss who has achieved the most in this group of post-75 players? ”

"First of all, to correct a little bit, Jason Kidd was born in '73, he is not a post-75 generation."

"And O'Neill, he's '72."

"'73 or '72 and '75 are not two years apart, basically the same."

"Gary Payton was born in '68, he's at the end of his career, and he may not even make the playoffs this season."

"A veteran player born in 60, only Karl Malone is still the absolute core of a team."

"Let's talk about the young people born around 75, Iverson, Maddy, and Carter are already the absolute core of their respective teams, and Kobe Bryant also has this ability, but he was suppressed by O'Neal."

"Kobe Bryant can't win the championship with O'Neal, maybe the Lakers should trade O'Neal and give space to Kobe Bryant to grow, and they will gain a young big killer."

"All four are shooting guards, and there are four centers in front of them, maybe this is the new big four shooting guards?"

"It's all shooting guards, why doesn't anyone talk about Ray Allen?"

"Lei Allen still forget it, he is not at the same level as the above four."

"A couple of power forwards are also good, Duncan and Garnett are good offensively and defensively, Chris Webber has a flashy offense, and Dirk Nowitzki is a big forward unlike any of them."

"When it comes to power forward, there is actually a Rasheed Wallace, who was not selected as an All-Star, but he can't be ignored."

"So, the Big Five?"

"There are two shooting guards in the east and west, and the big forwards are all concentrated in the west."

"Let's talk about point guards, Jason Kidd is the best point guard right now?"

"Stephen Marbury has a poor record, but he shouldn't be ignored either."

"Anything else?"

Seeing this, Qiao Hai replied directly: "Don't ignore Steve Nash of the Mavericks!" ”

Then, a group of replies despised Qiao Hai: "Steve Nash? That Canadian? What can he achieve? ”

"Without Michael Finley or Derk Nowitzki, Steve Nash is nothing!"

Qiao Hai shrugged his shoulders, no way, continue to brush the post.

"Center, who else but the big shark?"

"There is no one, just look at the All-Stars, Patrick Ewing and David Robinson can still be selected, and Deacon Bemutombo, and O'Neal Jr., who has not yet made a name for himself, which shows that there are no great players in the center position."

"The absolute core of a team is O'Neal!"

"Finally, what about small forwards? Glenn Robinson? ”

Seeing the small forward, Qiao Hai didn't continue to watch, because he knew very well that the prosperity of the small forward had not yet arrived, but it was almost over, from 2001 to 2003, it was only 2 years away.

"The younger generation is on the main stage, who will be the next Michael Jordan?"

For this question, Qiao Hai knows that no one will be the next Michael Jordan, because the next era is an era of competition.

……

Back in Vancouver, the Grizzlies stopped for one day and traveled to Apolis, Minnesota, the next day to take on the Timberwolves on the road.

The Grizzlies weren't in good shape in this game, especially Maddie, and it seems like he hasn't recovered from his All-Star entertainment yet.

In this game, the Grizzlies played hard until the last minute, trailing the Timberwolves by 3 points.

At the critical moment, Maddy missed two consecutive shots, and Kevin Garnett hit a key iron-blooded jumper to help the Timberwolves seal the victory.

As soon as the All-Star returned, the Grizzlies lost, and the ten-game winning streak before the All-Star came to an end.

The winning streak ended with the Grizzlies losing to the Timberwolves.

For the Grizzlies, there was a mission from start to finish this season — to reject the losing streak, so after this loss, that mission was restarted.

In the next game, the Grizzlies' opponent is the Wizards.

They still played away, and just like that, a few days after leaving Washington, Qiao Hai was going to return to Washington again.

This time in Washington, the Grizzlies will not only have to play a game that must be won, but at the same time, the veteran players who won the championship last season will visit the White House with the team.

So this time, the veteran players all brought their championship rings, and Stu Jackson and Billy Knight also traveled with the team to bring the O'Brien Cup.

The team's new owner, Michael Haesley, also flew from New York to Washington, D.C., to join up with the Grizzlies.

Michael Hasley has completed the acquisition of the Grizzlies for a total of $480 million and has become the new owner of the Grizzlies, John McCaw has left Vancouver, and the McCaw era of the Grizzlies has just begun and is over.

The grizzlies flew to Washington a day early, and after checking into the hotel, they were approached by government officials to inform them of the meeting process and what to expect early tomorrow morning.

……

Early the next morning, government officials brought dozens of police cars, and after the security check, the grizzly bear got into the car and the police car drove all the way to the White House.

Qiao Hai sat on the bus, he was wearing a suit and was very formal.

George Bush is not a president who loves basketball very much, so he is different from Barack***, and there will be no picture of the president playing basketball together.

Therefore, Qiao Hai does not need to prepare training clothes.

Qiao Hai's right index finger and middle finger wear two championship rings, one from the Lakers and one from the Grizzlies, the Lakers won the championship, and Qiao Hai failed to participate in the next year's White House trip, and the Lakers will not let him participate.

Therefore, although Qiao Hai is wearing two rings on his hands, this is also the first time to go to the White House.

Outside the car window, there were no pedestrians on Pennsylvania Avenue, even there were few vehicles, there were police cars driving the way, and ten minutes later, Qiao Hai and they arrived at their destination.

But before entering the White House, the grizzly bears went through another security check, which even included a body search.

……

Inside the White House, George Bush was already waiting in the meeting room, and outside the meeting room was a group of reporters.

The Grizzly Bears walked into the parlor through another door, and it was only here that they actually met the so-called President of the United States.

George Bush had just taken office in January, and Qiao Hai knew that the new president, who had inherited his father's legacy, would do something unpopular with the people, but Qiao Hai did not want to pay attention to political matters.

So this time I visited the White House, Qiao Hai has been very quiet.

As a Celestial Empireman, he felt that he did not need to communicate much with an American president.

……

……

For Qiao Hai, the highlight of this visit to the White House is to visit the White House.

The White House covers an area of more than 73,000 square meters, and it is the residence and office of the President of the United States, and part of it is the president's residence and living quarters.

The only places they can visit are the reception hall, the library, and the map room.

After a brief tour, George Bush was interviewed by the media on the grass outside the White House, along with the Grizzlies.

And, the Grizzlies showed off the O'Brien Cup and championship rings.

New owner Michael Hasley also gave George Bush a special Grizzlies jersey.

……

For the Grizzlies, the meeting had another significance: it was the first non-American team in NBA history to visit the White House after winning the championship......
