Chapter 343: The Troubles of Happiness

On February 1, a list was sent out from the league office and finally sent to Qiao Hai, along with a form.

Qiao Hai has to identify seven All-Star substitutes by tomorrow, fill out the form, and then submit it to the league, which will announce the final selection results of the All-Star Game on February 2.

However, the five starters in the East and West have already been released.

The vote king of this All-Star vote is still Vince Carter, Carter got 1.71 million votes, completing two consecutive championships, but he should thank Maddie, Maddie got 1.52 million votes, only 190,000 votes short, if Maddie is not injured for three months, it is really hard to say who this All-Star vote king is.

But now, the big picture has been decided.

Carter won the ticket, and this season, he was selected as an All-Star as a guard.

So partnering Carter in the backcourt is Iverson, who got 1.5 million votes, and the two in the front court should be Grant Hill and Ratley Les Prewell in the order of votes, but Grant Hill is injured, so Brian Grant, who is ranked third, is on top.

The first pick in the center was Mourning, but Mourning was also injured and severe, reportedly with kidney disease, and Mourning may even retire as a result.

So, the second vote for Theolatliff on top.

But the key point is that Theolatliff is also injured, a serious injury that will be reimbursed for the season, so it can only be topped by Deacon Bemutombo, who is voted third.

So, the final starting lineup in the East is Allen Iverson, Vince Carter, Rattle Les Prewell, Brian Grant and Deacon Bemutombo.

On the western side, Maddie is the king of votes in the West, and the second in the backcourt is Kobe Bryant, who got 1.4 million votes, so Maddie and Kobe Bryant will partner in the backcourt.

The two forwards were Chris Webber and Tim Duncan, who were the top two voters, and the center was Shaquille O'Neal, who received 1.54 million votes.

The starting five in the West are Tracy McGrady, Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan, Chris Webber and Shaquille O'Neal.

From the perspective of the lineup, the stars in the East are obviously much worse than the Grizzlies.

This seems to prove once again from the side the existence of a strong west and a weak east.

Qiao Hai also found another interesting fact, the two backcourt players in the East are Iverson and Carter, and the two backcourt players in the West are Maddie and Kobe, aren't these the big four quarterbacks?

……

Johi received a roster that was apparently streamlined by the league because there was only one Grizzlies player left on the roster — Patrick Ewing.

Sean Marion, Mike Bibie, Billups and Ginobili were all eliminated in the All-Star poll.

Obviously, the league is also afraid that these two coaches in the East and West will select players who obviously have no star to enter the All-Star Game.

Holding a condensed list, Qiao Hai quickly circled 7 names.

The first one to circle is Patrick Ewing, who is also a substitute anyway, it is better to take Ewing to the All-Star to play, if it weren't for the league that only gave Ewing the name, Qiao Hai would even circle Manuginobili and Billups.

From this point of view, the league was still very wise, preventing Qiao Hai from turning the All-Star Game into a Grizzlies vs. East Army.

After Ewing, Joe Hai circled Kevin Garnett, who would be an ironclad starter if Garnett was placed in the East, or if the Kings' record hadn't exploded this season, Garnett would have been a starter, but not so many ifs.

Then there's Jason Kidd, who has the quality to start, but he can't be a starter in either the East or the West because he can't compete with any of the big four quarterbacks.

And the Suns also have the ninth record in the West and are not in the playoffs, so rumors that the Suns are going to trade Jason Kidd and Kidd are asking to be traded.

The Western team already has Duncan, Webb and Garnett in the lineup, and there is still one short of the four big forwards, and Qiao Hai has also circled it directly - Dick Nowitzki.

Qiao Hai thought of the four centers again, Olajuwon was not on the list, but there was also a David Robinson in the list, so Qiao Hai circled the name of David Robinson, the three centers.

In the end, there are still two spots, Qiao Hai chose Karl Malone, who is in hot form this season, and Gary Payton, and it seems to be a good choice to play a Lakers F4 in the All-Star Game.

In the end, Qiao Hai copied the seven names in the form.

Patrick Ewing, Kevin Garnett, Jason Kidd, Dirk Nowitzki, David Robinson, Karl Malone, and Gary Payton.

After transcribing it, Qiao Hai sent the list to Stu Jackson, who finally submitted it to the Alliance.

……

However, before the league announced it to the public, Hoop Sports had already gotten the news, how did Hoop Sports get the news, which naturally had to ask Qiao Hai.

Hoop Sports exposed all the all-star rosters in the West, which also sparked heated discussions among fans.

"Michael Finley was selected as an All-Star, and Dirk Nowitzki was selected as an All-Star, so who the hell is the boss of the Mavericks?"

In 2001, Dick Nowitzki averaged 20+ points per game in his first season, which has not yet been recognized, on the contrary, Michael Finley, who has been stable for four consecutive seasons with 20+, is even more recognized, so many people think that Michael Finley is the boss of the Mavericks.

"Jason Williams, who voted fourth in the backcourt, was defeated, Vlad Divac, who was voted third by center, and the Kings, who were third in the West, were not taken seriously?"

It was a post from a Kings fan, but then it was scolded back by fans of other teams.

Jason Williams, who averaged 10 points and 5.4 assists per game, was selected as an All-Star? I'm afraid it's not Shi Lezhi, right? ”

"Vlad Divac, who averaged 12 points and 8 rebounds per game, is also far worse than Patrick Ewing, who averages 13 points, 13 rebounds and 3 blocks per game!"

"Although the Kings are third in the West, Patrick Ewing's team is first in the West, and David Robinson's team is second in the West, and you are third in the West, so why do you ask to be selected?"

"Gary Payton and Jason Kidd are the bosses of their respective teams, Jason Williams? Can he finish in the top five for the Kings? ”

“……”

In this way, a reply from a Kings fan, the Hoop forum set off a scolding war.

However, this is exactly what the Hoop forum administrators want to see, and for a while, the traffic of the Hoop forum has soared, and fans from all teams have poured in to join the scolding war.

The All-Star roster in the East wasn't revealed until the next day.

Because Joe didn't have Larry Brown's contact information, there was no way to help Hoop get the news in advance.

Of the seven spots, Larry Brown chose Ray Allen, Glenn Robinson, Anthony Mason Jr., Stephen Marbury, Jerry Starkerhouse, Alan Houston and Jermaine O'Neal.

There is no controversy in the east, the reason is very simple, the stars are faint, there are no people available, those who can enter the All-Star have entered, and even those who can't have entered have also entered a few, so naturally there is no controversy.

In contrast, Qiao Hai's side is the trouble of happiness.
