Chapter 314: All-Stars Released

The regular season is in full swing, and voting for the 2011 All-Star Game is already underway, the 60th All-Star Weekend in NBA history, held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, which Ye Feng is very familiar with, that is, the home of the Lakers and Clippers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

It stands to reason that a player like Ye Feng, who has just been banned for 15 games and has a "bad record", will not get any votes, but firstly, Ye Feng's performance in the Trailblazers is quite good, and he has been able to play 25+7+8 data, which is considered a quasi-first-class small forward in the league, and secondly, this kind of thing of fighting for teammates still has a part of the market in the United States, and many fans publicly declare that Ye Feng is right to do this, so this matter is not enough to prevent fans from voting for him.

As for the domestic market, the comments of the "Yangcheng Basketball News" have already had a large market, and Chinese fans have begun to look at this matter rationally under their guidance, plus Yao Ming has also publicly supported his little brother, so the votes from China are not much less than expected. However, the more important thing is that the three Chinese players will not divide the votes, Yao Ming is the western center, Ye Feng is the western forward, and Yi Jianlian is the eastern forward, and the three positions can vote at the same time.

After three rounds of voting, the 2011 Los Angeles All-Star roster was released. On the Eastern side, the top three votes were fairly close, with Magic center Howard unexpectedly becoming the Eastern Conference vote king, with a total of 2099204 votes, followed by James with 2053011 votes, and third with Wade, who got 2048175 votes. Surprisingly, the 2008 All-Star pick, who finished fourth in the Eastern Conference All-Star poll, earned 1914996 of votes and secured a spot as a starting guard. In the end, the starting lineup of the Eastern Conference All-Stars is: point guard Rose, scoring guard Wade, small forward James, power forward Stoudemire, center Howard, and the head coach is Rivers of the Celtics.

On the western side, Kobe Bryant, as the host, deservedly became the ticket king, and he was also the ticket king of this year's All-Star Game, and he got 2380016 votes. He was followed by Westbrook's teammate, Durant, who has grown into an excellent small forward, and the gap between his votes and Kobe Bryant was relatively large, with only 1736728 votes. In third place is the Nuggets' small forward Anthony, who has a bigger gap with only 1299849 votes. However, since the vote is only divided between defenders, forwards and centers, Anthony still occupies a starting spot. In the end, the starting lineup of the Western Conference All-Stars was: point guard Paul, scoring guard Kobe, small forward Durant, small forward Anthony, center Yao Ming, and the head coach was Popovich of the Spurs. However, Yao Ming announced his withdrawal from the All-Star due to injury, and NBA commissioner Stern designated Loew, who received the eighth most votes at the forward position, to participate in the All-Star Game, which was a surprise for Loew.

I have to say that the head coaches on both sides still take care of their own teams when choosing the All-Star bench, and of course Rivers is more naked in this regard. Since the Celtics' players failed to get a starting spot, he made a big move and selected Pierce, Garnett, Ray Allen and Rondo all into the Eastern Conference All-Star lineup, which made people secretly complain. In addition, he also chose Bosh who formed a big three with James and Wade, which can be regarded as a good sale for the Heat. The final two spots were given to the Hawks' interior and exterior cores, Joe Johnson and Horford, meaning that he only had players from three teams on his entire bench lineup.

Old man Popovich also chose his apprentice Ginobili and let Duncan replace Yao Ming as the starting center in the West, after all, Stern only designated Loew as an All-Star, which does not mean that he will be the starter. But that's the end of Popovich, who has a much broader range than Rivers' focused picks. Gasol of the Lakers, Nowitzki of the Mavericks, and Deron Williams of the Jazz were all selected by him to the bench. Interestingly, the old man didn't have the idea of giving face to the Clippers at all, he gave up Griffin, who had a high reputation before, and instead gave the remaining two spots to Ye Feng and Westbrook, plus Löw, who was handpicked by Stern, which means that the Western All-Stars have gathered the UCLA troika that swept the NCAA that year.

After learning the news, the three of them quickly started chatting on the Internet, and they all remembered the time when they wore UCLA uniforms to conquer the city. Although Los Angeles is not the home of any of the teams they play for, in fact, from the perspective of their college career, it is their territory, the same as Kobe and Gasol, or even more so, after all, in the eyes of American fans, the NCAA is more intense and pure than the NBA, and the legend of the UCLA troika still leaves a deep impression on them today.

Dinner was a must-have for the three of them, but they soon decided to take time out to go back to school during All-Star Weekend. Every time they go to Los Angeles to play an away game, they basically come and go, and they have to train elsewhere in the offseason, so they haven't been back since joining the NBA, and this time it happened to be the All-Star Weekend at the Staples Center, so they just dropped back to school.

In addition, Ye Feng has another task, and the NBA officially invited him to participate in the three-point contest and slam dunk contest during All-Star Weekend. However, Ye Feng is not very interested in the dunk contest, his dunks are basically very concise, with scoring as the main purpose, and it is rare to see him playing some tricks for handsome reasons in the game. But he refused the slam dunk contest and agreed to participate in the three-point contest, after all, he has shot 41.7 percent from three-point range so far this season, which is more than enough to participate in the competition. Ye Feng also had the idea of competing with top shooters in his heart, and since the alliance invited him, he agreed to it.

In addition to him, the other players participating in the three-point contest are Pierce and Ray Allen of the Celtics, Durant of the Thunder, Jones of the Heat and Gibson of the Cavaliers, all of whom are well-known pitchers.
