Tang Wenlong received an invitation to the league's slam dunk contest.

He blinked and listened intently as ED-Stephaski boasted about the benefits of participating in the slam dunk contest, and it sounded as if the fan base would be able to double after participating in the slam dunk contest.

"However, I heard that since the end of the Carter Century Slam Dunk Contest, the Slam Dunk Contest has not been as good as one year!" Tang Wenlong said with suspicion.

"This is a misunderstanding, a stupid view!"

Stephaus stood up, blushing and thick-necked, "How can the slam dunk contest be more and more bad!" Every year's All-Star Game, in addition to the main game, is the most concerned slam dunk contest, you know, how difficult it is to be able to show your face once in such a high-exposure game, I don't think anyone invited me! ”

"But I haven't thought about participating in this competition yet, and I haven't even thought about it." Tang Wenlong still shook his head, he felt that the honor of the dunk king was not as happy as winning the best of the week.

Stefanski said bitterly, "If you don't think about it, you can think about it now, but if you are wrong, this village will have no store!" ”

Tang Wenlong: "It doesn't matter, it's a big deal that I'll go back in a few years after I think about it." ”

Stephaški roared in his heart, heavens! How should he persuade, it is not easy for the general manager to do his part, is this guy's head made of stone?

"Go ahead, what a rare opportunity!"

Stefanski persistently reassured, "It's a very cool thing for the team and for the fans who are expecting you. Moreover, you know that there has never been a yellow person in the NBA's slam dunk contest, if you participate, whether you win the grand prize or not, it is at least a precedent, you are the first yellow person to win such an honor, Chinese! ”

Tang Wenlong's eyes lit up, the first Chinese to participate?

The change in Tang Wenlong's expression was seen by Stefan Schi, and he suddenly perked up and secretly exclaimed that there was a play.

"You know, the slam dunk contest has been held almost exclusively by black people, even white players rarely appear, and if you can really participate in the game as a yellow race, it will definitely go down in history. And if you can win the championship, I think, it will correct the thinking of the world, who said that the yellow race is not physically good? ”

Tang Wenlong nodded, lost in thought.

Stefans crackled and said that if Tang Wenlong participated in the slam dunk contest, it would be good news for the 76ers, who had not been exposed at All-Star Weekend for a long time.

After a long time, Tang Wenlong made up his mind and showed a smile, "Haha, general manager, if you are not the general manager, it is also extremely strong to be a speaker, you won, I was persuaded by you, the idea of the first Chinese is cool and great"

ED-Stephański laughed twice, a stone fell in his heart, and he gave Tang Wenlong a thumbs up.

"Don, you're definitely a smart player and you're going to be proud of your decision in the future."

"That's right." Tang Wenlong suddenly asked, "I haven't told him about Joe, and last time he persuaded me to participate in the slam dunk contest, I said I was too tired and didn't want to go." ”

When Stefansky heard Tang Wenlong say this, he was even more proud.

"It's okay, I'll just talk about it over there, you guys played really well last week, three away games, I thought you would win one at most!"

Tang Wenlong said: "It's average, the schedule in February is even easier. ”

"That's right." "February 21 is the All-Star Game, but our last game is on February 17th, and then it's All-Star Weekend," Stefanschi said. ”

"I'm going to have to compete in the Rookie Challenge, I'm so tired!" Tang Wenlong spread his hands, and the thought of going to various activities during the All-Star Weekend made him feel very unhappy.

"Let's look at it, just get used to it, maybe you will go every year in the future!" Stephański laughed.

Tang Wenlong also smiled, "Haha, I hope too." ”

In early February, the 76ers moved up one spot, overtaking the Hawks and moving behind the Magic to fifth place in the East.

This terrified the Magic, with the top four in the East being the Bulls, Heat, Celtics and Magic, while the top eight and bottom four are the 76ers, Hawks, Pacers and Bucks. If you follow this ranking, the Magic never want to face off against the 76ers, who are now the biggest spoilers in the East, and may not have the strength to win the championship, but they are black and hard, can bite points, have strong defense, and have a wave of explosive scoring.

"You must not touch the 76ers!" Big Van Gundy immediately called an emergency meeting of the team, preferring to play the Hawks, who are known as five quasi-All-Stars, rather than fight the 76ers in a tough battle. "The Celtics must be pulled down, let the Celtics and the 76ers go to knock, the old bones like to fight with the young guys the most!"

On the 3rd, the 76ers challenged the Nets away.

Gordon Hayward is firmly in the Nets' starter, and although his stats are average, averaging only 12.4 points and 5.2 assists per game, he is very efficient in shooting, shooting 48.2 percent overall and has outstanding performances in key moments. New Jersey fans have made it clear that they have fallen in love with watching hot white guys perform. In contrast, it was the inefficient performance of Nets guard Devin Harris, who not only performed inefficiently, but also occupied a lot of shots. In New Jersey, rumors of a trade Harris have been looming

Hayward's technical movements are very strange, the rest of his physical fitness is average, but he has strong waist and abdominal strength and flexibility, and his shooting is very accurate, and after entering the NBA, he continues to use the all-round positioning as he did in college, especially the character of liking to share the ball, which makes the other players on the team like him even more and makes his position in the team more stable.

Tang Wenlong didn't know many friends, but Hayward, who could speak "some" Chinese, was definitely one of them, and the two often made appointments to open black together, play dota or something.

Friends off the field, opponents on the field!

Competitive sports players are very professional, even if the two were friends in the team the day before, once there is a trade, they still have to play normally the next day.

The Nets arranged for Hayward and Tang Wenlong to play against him, and now Tang Wenlong looks like Hayward. This surprised some careful media, and took a photo of the two of them for comparison with the photo of the two of them in college, and sure enough, Tang Wenlong was obviously several centimeters taller.

Hayward couldn't stop Tang Wenlong.

Nobody Stephen Graham also couldn't withstand Iguodala's onslaught at all, and the Nets' outside line didn't know where to find this temporary worker, who was 1.98 meters tall, but slowly like a giant turtle.

The 76ers easily won the game 106-92 amid the curses of the New Jersey fans, and all six players scored in double figures, the highest score came from Louis Williams on the bench, who shot 7-of-12 from the field, including 3-of-6 from three-point range, and scored 26 points from the free throw line with 9-of-9 free throws, surprisingly winning the Player of the Match.

"Thank you to the Welfare Bureau." Tang Wenlong shook Hayward's big hand at the end of the game and said with a smile.

Hayward looked depressed, "There is a lot of difference in the early stage, and I lost a few waves of small team battles in the middle stage, and I can't beat you in the later stage, if you are lucky, next time I will definitely abuse you in a god costume." ”

"The point is that your support is a bit weak." Tang Wenlong laughed, saying that Graham, a temporary worker, was too weak.

"There's no way, I knew it would be better to let the Sava man vote, at least that guy still has a set of defense." Hayward shrugged his shoulders and said.

Tang Wenlong scoffed, "Then we also have old fritters, who is afraid of who?" ”

"Do you dare to solo in the middle of the night?" Hayward raised his eyebrows and made an appointment to fight Tang Wenlong.

Tang Wenlong laughed, "You better play slowly alone, we will go back to Philadelphia tonight, and we have to go to Atlanta early tomorrow morning, if we lose this game, the Eagles will overtake us again." ”

"Hey, okay. But then again, you've had a lot of away games lately. ”

"Yes, the schedule was tight in the first two months but there were many home games, and the schedule is not tight now, but there are a lot of away games, which are all good schedules arranged by doctoral students, so it is better for our Chinese high school students to arrange them."

As soon as Tang Wenlong talked about the schedule, he was full of bitterness, and he didn't know what Lao Mei had learned in mathematics

After leaving New Jersey, the team spent more than an hour on the bus back to Philadelphia, New Jersey is very close to Philadelphia, and sometimes during the home game in New Jersey, there will be a lot of die-hard Philadelphia fans who come to cheer up or something.

At one o'clock in the morning, Tang Wenlong finally returned to his residence, at this time he didn't feel sleepy, turned on the computer, and chatted with Fang Chuxia QQ, who was far away in China.

Although every time, Fang Chuxia would say: "Why are you still playing on the computer, why don't you go to sleep yet"

Every time at this time, Tang Wenlong would have a smile on his face, even when he was typing, he was smirking
