The third quarter was beaten into garbage time, and as soon as 24 hours passed, in the face of another team, the third quarter was completed and clocked out of work.

Tang Wenlong's performance is like an occasional fluctuating lake, slightly undulating, but overall, it still tends to be stable, he has a body, skills, and a brain, the way of survival that Nocioni gave him, he removes the dross, takes its essence, and constantly enriches his abilities.

The Philadelphia media spared no effort to declare Tang Wenlong the best rookie, which upset the Los Angeles media, and the two media engaged in a war of words on social media.

At this time, Tang Wenlong listened to Joe Thomas, opened his own Twitter, and carried out real-name verification. Today, with the progress of intelligence, Tang Wenlong has only opened his own Twitter until now, and he also belongs to a type of character who is more aware of hindsight. But this did not affect the love of fans and fans at all, and in just one day, the number of his fans began to skyrocket, exceeding 10,000.

Tang Wenlong gave the account to Joe Thomas to manage, in fact, many NBA stars have handed over accounts like Twitter to agents to manage, and only a small part of the many dynamics that fans see are really sent by the stars themselves.

In mid-January, Hawes, who had been off for more than a month, returned from injury.

Now, Collins had a headache. Before Hawes was injured, he was the main center of the 76ers, and he played well. But now that the team has recalled Bowler and used Haitian Striker as the main interior lineman, he also had a good record, and on paper, it seems to have a better effect than when Hawes was the center.

This is really difficult, Collins can only talk to Hawes, and use words such as just recovering from the bench to find feelings on the bench to calm Hawes.

Hawes is also very helpless, he knows what kind of big changes have happened to the 76ers during his rest period, as a qualified basketball player, he understands Collins' arrangement, but there will always be a trace of unhappiness in his heart, after all, it is a starter, a starter who gets the audience to stand up and cheer when he plays!

The 76ers' roster depth has become thicker, and their record has steadily improved.

And at this time, the league's eyes are drawn to the upcoming All-Star. The results of the second round of voting came out, Tang Wenlong still ranked first in the Eastern guards, and behind him were Dwyane Wade and Derrick Rose of the Heat, and according to this trend, the star with the first record in the league may not be able to enter the All-Star starter!

"That's an insult to the All-Star." The media in Chicago was blunt, and the media in Los Angeles bombarded Tang Wenlong, "He's playing great, and their team's record is good, but he's still just a rookie after all." And whether it is scoring or assisting, he is a big cut behind Derek. I think the fans who voted should sensibly look at the last game between the two teams, that will tell the whole story. ”

Tang Wenlong's Twitter is now a scene of ice and fire, half of the fans are fully supportive, and half of the fans are black and black.

"Fortunately, Tang Wenlong doesn't play Twitter." Joe Thomas wiped his sweat and silently blocked his ID......

Another ten days or so passed, and the All-Stars announced the results of the third round of voting.

After the results came out, Chicago fans were really disappointed, and Derrick Rose, who was known as "leading the Bulls back after Jordan", still failed to surpass Wade at the last moment, and unfortunately missed the All-Star starter. Tang Wenlong, on the other hand, lightly occupies one of the positions in the backcourt of the East, looking effortless.

"A turtle who didn't even use Twitter before actually snatched the starting ......" This is all the voices of all the players in the NBA, in vain they used to interact with fans, all kinds of cute canvassing or something.

No wonder Ross said sourly in an interview, "There are too many fans in China. ”

Similarly, Yao Ming was named to the All-Star Game as a result, even though he was injured in December. Expressively, it is difficult to convince other NBA players.

East: Donald, Wade, James, Stoudemire and Howard.

West: Paul, Kobe, Durant, Anthony and Yao Ming.

Neither the Bulls, who have the best record in the East, nor the Spurs, who have the first record in the West, have been selected as All-Star starters, which has caused criticism from the media.

It's worth mentioning that Iguodala came in third in the Eastern Conference Forward vote, trailing only Stoudemire by 50,000 votes and even surpassing balloon stars Kevin Garnett and Paul Pearce.

The All-Star is not just a half-way exhibition game, it's also a commercial pitch for the NBA. The stars who can be selected for the main game, in a sense, have a large part of the fan base, and they expose themselves, increase their popularity, and increase their commercial value through the All-Star Weekend.

For the stars of the small ball market, how to not be forgotten in this big dye vat, All-Star is undoubtedly a good choice.

……

In the last three games of January, the 76ers made three consecutive trips.

Away against the Raptors, away against the Grizzlies, away against the Magic.

Tang Wenlong came to Toronto for the first time, and in such a cold weather in January, he also caught up with a fluttering heavy snowfall, which directly covered the entire Toronto with snow.

"The Raptors are not having a good time!" Tang Wenlong has some sympathy for the Raptors' players.

Lowry also nodded frequently, "Yes, this place is really too cold, and it's remote." He exhaled into his hand, and then puffed out a puff of white smoke, "If it were me, I would definitely not want to play here, or Philadelphia ......"

When the bus entered the city, it encountered icy roads and the speed was very slow.

"DeMar DeRozan is the core of what the Raptors are developing right now, and he's improved a lot." When Tang Wenlong closed his eyes, he recalled the tactical instructions made by Collins on the plane before, and occasionally thought about the problem of tactical positioning by himself, and enjoyed it.

"Good health, accurate mid-range shooting, good free throws, but no long-range shooting ability."

DeRozan, who was born in 89, and Tang Wenlong have very different styles, Tang Wenlong has a strong breakthrough, but relies more on various jump shots to solve the offense, while DeRozan prefers to play air cut tactics, and his ability to make fouls is the strongest in the Raptors team now, like Bagyani and the like, who may not have made a few fouls in a game.

As a result, the Raptors became the second largest fish belly in the East after the Cavaliers, and went straight to the lottery.

The local Chinese in Toronto are not afraid of the cold, and they have come to cheer for Tang Wenlong. There is a crazy female fan who even wrote explicit words such as "willing to give birth to a monkey for Tang Wenlong" on the sign he was holding, which shows the lethality of the handsome Tang Wenlong in this aspect of female fans.

Tang Wenlong was a little touched and a little funny, the fans are always so cute and innocent.

He scored a quasi-triple-double of 34 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists to the cheers of 30% of the fans, contributing a landmark victory.

Subsequently, Tang Wenlong made a big fuss in Memphis, contributing 31 points and scoring 30+ points again.

After this game, Tang Wenlong won the second weekly best of his career, and in the last week of January, he averaged 30.9 points, 8.2 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game, which was a big explosion, beating James, Stoudemire and others who were also nominated for the Weekly Awards.

It can be regarded as making the complaining Youyoukou stop for a while.

But the good times didn't last long, in the last game against the Magic in January, Tang Wenlong was cursed with the best award and lost his touch in Orlando, losing all 4 shots in the first quarter and hanging a zero egg.

In stark contrast to his sluggish performance is the hot form of Howard, who is simply an unstoppable monster, constantly grabbing frontcourt rebounds, constantly completing dunks or causing 76ers interior kills, and it only took half time to get a double-double of 16+11.

Fortunately, Iguodala and others are hot, and the 76ers' outside firepower can always be continued, so that the score has never been completely opened.

In the second half, Collins instructed the 76ers to foul Howard to the free throw line.

This move was immediately booed by the Orlando fans, and Nocioni rarely played once, so he used it all to foul, hammering his small fist desperately at Howard, while still looking at the referee, thinking why didn't the referee blow the foul?

Howard smiled helplessly, and once again even sent a baseline ball and didn't enter the court, but Nocioni still followed with him, and gently found Howard outside the court, and the foul action was very gentle, like stroking the face of a lover, and gently touched Howard.

The referee is also hard work, and he doesn't know that the Nth foul is blown.

The Magic's offensive rhythm was immediately shattered, with Howard shooting just over 50 percent from the free-throw line, and sometimes, missing consecutive free throws. The more they are cut, the more nervous and helpless the players become, and the more they can't find the crosshairs.

The effect was remarkable, the 76ers gradually pulled the score difference back, and Tang Wenlong hit consecutive outside jumpers, looking like the slender Magic No. 1 back then.

Stan Van Gundy scolded Collins for being shameless, but there was no way, this set of tactics, but the old Nelson invented it to deal with the invincible sharks, although it is a different player now, but it seems that the bitter master is still magic.

In fact, Howard in this period, the free throw shooting rate is really not low, although the posture is very stiff, but he can have a shooting rate of almost 5 to 9, and he can also contribute 22.9 points, 14 rebounds and 2.5 blocks every night, and he is a well-deserved NBA No. 1 center.

But no matter how you hang, when the free throws are not smart and you encounter shark tactics, you can still only stare dryly
