Chapter 196 All-Star Vote

In 2002, the Knicks' last NBA game ended, and after the trip to Texas, the Knicks all returned to New York for the next game.

After the game with the Spurs, Liang Xiao arrived in New York with the team very late, this Knicks vs. Spurs game, the next day's newspaper reported this, the local newspapers of the Spurs mainly analyzed the current problems of the Spurs, mainly in the lack of experience in the young game, and at the same time for the arrangement of this game, ** Vicky has a certain responsibility, plus the Spurs players somewhat look down on the Knicks, especially Liang Xiao, a rookie who did not participate in the draft, The media in New York praised the Knicks' players, praised the performance of the Knicks' two guns, and affirmed Liang Xiao's performance, Liang Xiao is now an indispensable part of the Knicks.

When I returned to the apartment, it was almost early in the evening, and I had a short break for the next day, but these times were actually a drop in the bucket for players in 82 games a season, so in a game like the NBA, every player must have a good body, which is why many whites and Asians are not as good as blacks in basketball, and it is a very important reason in terms of body.

On the last day of 2002, the Knicks did not have a holiday, in this kind of professional league, it has become not so important for the holidays, and in the New Year's Day is far less important than Christmas, so there is no rest in the Knicks, and on New Year's Day, they have to play at home against the visiting Toronto Raptors.

During the next day's training, Liang Xiao and the madman Sprewell were discussing the voting activities of the All-Star Weekend on the sidelines, in the previous life, the Knicks did not have anyone elected as an All-Star in this season, but that was because the Knicks were really bad in the 02-03 season in the previous life, just like the mud can't get on the wall, the Knicks have All-Star experience in the Knicks, Alan Houston was selected to the All-Star team in 2000 and 2001, As a madman, Sprewell is even more terrible, with four All-Star experiences, but all this is a passing thing, if the record is not good, even the players who can turn the tide will not feel too much joy on the court,

The madman told about his four-time All-Star experience, and his eyebrows danced in front of Liang Xiao, as a senior or a veteran, Liang Xiao wanted to respect him, but in the Knicks, Liang Xiao and the madman were dead friends, for this guy Liang Xiao really didn't want to be sarcastic about him as usual, but chose to be a listener, first, Liang Xiao does yearn for this All-Star, for every NBA player, to be able to enter the NBA All-Star Game, it is definitely an affirmation of his career, Maybe the championship ring is an affirmation for a player on the team, and the All-Star is definitely an affirmation for all the media and fans.

In the previous life, the madman averaged only 16.1 points per game this season, for this once talented and with a little nerve knife characteristics, after the throat lock incident in 1997, the madman not only lost more money, but also a very big blow in his heart, and he could get 19.4 points last season, in the previous life, the Timberwolves and Garnett, Cesar formed a three-headed monster and did not play a decent game,

Often a butterfly can change the whole world, Liang Xiao's arrival directly brought a catalyst to the Knicks, Alan Houston is still the calm mid-range king, but the madman is not the guy who is ready to go crazy at any time, he is in a very good state, and he has improved compared to the previous season, with an average of 19.7 points per game, Liang Xiao followed the madman climate, averaging 17.1 points per game, and faintly Liang Xiao and the Knicks combined two guns into three shots with strong firepower,

The 53rd All-Star Game in NBA history in 2003 was hosted at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, in the previous life, the overall ticket king was Kobe Bryant, who had been in good shape in the league since then, and the All-Star Game was finally decided after double overtime between the East and West, and the All-Star Game was also the last All-Star Game of the legendary star Flyer Jordan, but this All-Star Game, Jordan in the Washington Wizards can only be described as rotten, In the end, in the All-Star vote, Jordan didn't even get a starting position, but it was a miracle that the Flyers could still be elected as an All-Star at the age of 40, and finally Jordan declined the kindness of Iverson and Maddie to give up the starting position, and accepted the start of the Canadian Flyer Rens Carter, this All-Star game, Chinese player Da Yao stood on the starting line of the Western All-Stars, which is the highest peak of Chinese in professional basketball, which can be said to be unprecedented and unprecedented.

This game is TNT's first broadcast of an All-Star event, and it is also the last main board All-Star game in the East, the strength of the East and West has continued to tilt to the West, Garnett has lifted the All-Star MVP at the end, if it weren't for O'Neal Jr. fouling Kobe Bryant in the first overtime, this MVP may be Jordan's, this game is also a place where fans later said that Kobe was not kind, which is also a reason why Liang Xiao has not been very cold to Kobe in his previous life,

However, everything has become a little different when Liang Xiao arrived, the Knicks were in the previous life, the season was 37-45, ranking at the bottom of the East, before the New Year, the Knicks did not achieve a total of ten wins, and now the Knicks because of the uncertain factor of Liang Xiao, the Knicks now have a 19-9 record, and the Knicks have squeezed into the top five all of a sudden, if they can continue, The Knicks' playoff tickets will be very guaranteed, and they will be very strong on the road to the championship in the future.

Now the All-Star voting activity has been opened in Atlanta in mid-November, every fan can vote on the NBA's official website, or send a letter and other ways to make their own choice, the end of mid-January of the new year, the All-Star voting players have 60 players in the east and west, these 60 candidates are selected by a team of media experts who have been engaged in NBA reporting for a long time, and the team of media experts is composed of NBA television, Houston Chronicle, Toronto Star/ PBWA is composed of TNT's senior media experts.

The star vote contains three positions, fans need to choose 2 guards, 2 forwards and 1 center, in the previous life, Da Yao was voted for in the position of the center in the West, and it is still very rare to get the starting position in the rookie position, at least the best rookie like the little bully Stoudemire and the Clippers star Elton Brand and other stars have no way to enter the All-Star lineup, and another reason during this period is that Chinese fans, Chinese fans are absolutely fanatical, Don't look at Chinese fans often scold and scold China's sports, just because these national teams are too uncompetitive, but those who scold and scold will choose to watch again, in the previous life, these fanatical Chinese fans finally saw a treasure, Da Yao got a chance in the center position, fans voted for Da Yao in the vote, let Da Yao sit in the starting position, but unfortunately there is no Wang Dazhi in the candidate list, if there is him among the candidate players, it is estimated that he will also sit in the starting position of the striker,

With the help of Liang Xiao, the Knicks now have a very good record, and the Knicks' double guns and Liang Xiao are also on the list of candidates in the All-Star vote, and the All-Star vote is now nearing the end, Liang Xiao and the madman have a big gap in the ballot, Liang Xiao has a very high vote because of the votes of Chinese fans, and the madman is even more sticky to Liang Xiao's light, and he also got a high position in the votes,

In the Eastern All-Star Poll, in the previous life, the Eastern All-Star twelve were Vince Carter, Allen Iverson, Michael Jordan, Jason Kidd, Jamal Marshburn, Maddy, Brand Miller, Jermaine O'Neal, Paul Pierce, Anthony Walker, Ben Wallace, Il Goskas, but now, the Knicks' Liang Xiao, Houston, and Madman are constantly moving forward in the rankings, and there is still half a month to go, and the results of the voting are coming out, and Liang Xiao is now the highest ranking among the Knicks, In the guard, you can definitely enter the twelve-man squad, although it is not the core of the Knicks, but the All-Star does not depend on whether you are the core, with the support of Chinese fans, I don't know if Liang Xiao can be determined in the starting position in half a month, and now it is established as an All-Star,

"Hey, how can the vote of this kid of you be so high, you didn't even participate in the draft, and besides, are you as handsome as me, I really don't know how those fans chose you and not me." Sprewell saw on TV that Liang Xiao's votes were higher than his own, and there was a sense of banter in his words, Liang Xiao is now 19 years old, and he has a good skin, Madison, the home court of the Knicks, is very popular with young people and beauties, and the madman said that he is really not as handsome as Liang Xiao,

"You're jealous, obviously jealous, you're not as handsome as me." Liang smiled and immediately walked on the field to continue training, ignoring the madman muttering behind him,
