Three hundred and five busy Gu Fei
The Los Angeles Clippers, who left Boston, continued their back-to-back road trips in the East.
At 105:89, the 16-point victory over the Toronto Raptors made the Torontons even more desperate was that their leader Chris Bosh left the game with an injury in the game against the Los Angeles Clippers, and the injury situation after the game was not optimistic and was expected to be out for a month, which also indicated that Bosh could not participate in the 2009 All-Star Game half a month later.
98:96, two points narrowly defeated the Philadelphia 76ers, it was the last 3 seconds Gu Fei completed self-redemption, Gu Fei's state in this game was not good, he only hit 3 of them 10 times in the first three quarters, and scored a pitiful 8 points, which is undoubtedly an extremely bad stat for Gu Fei, who averaged 29 points per game this season, and the Los Angeles Clippers are also 15 points behind in the Wacovia Center, the Phillies see the hope of beating the league's first, but in the last quarter Gu Fei staged the return of the king, Facing Philadelphia's little AI Iguodala, the defensive titan Gu Fei scored five goals in a row and led the team to stage a Jedi counterattack, first hit a three-point tie in the last 30 seconds to tie the score, and even blocked Iguodala at the last moment to complete the fatal blow.
After a two-day break in Los Angeles, the Clippers defeated the Denver Nuggets and Trail Blazers in succession, defeated the Sacramento Kings in the last game before the All-Star break, and a fifteen-game winning streak officially ended the first half of the 2008-2099 season, with a 43-10 record that topped the league and left the Cleveland Cavaliers behind them by two wins.
All-Star Weekend is an opportunity for most people to relax, there are not many such opportunities in the intensive season, but this opportunity obviously does not belong to Gu Fei, looking at the email on his computer screen Gu Fei wanted to cry without tears, "Is this called rest?" Gu Fei complained, but he was powerless to change all this, so he could only choose to accept it.

At 9:00 a.m. on February 26, the All-Star Game is the schedule that Gu Fei needs to participate in for a few days of the All-Star Game, and the dense activities are covered with Gu Fei's four days.
"Is this a break? Is this relaxation? I feel like the league is squeezing all the time that Gu has. Mike Dunleavy saw the schedule in front of the media bombarding the league directly, even though he knew what the bombardment league would bring him.
And there are many people who agree with Mike Dunleavy that after Gu Fei staged the Gu miracle last season, the various effects of continuing to be crazy this season are obvious, but such an intensive All-Star journey has never been seen in the history of All-Stars.
"Gu is a gold mine, as long as he appears where he can always bring attention, but Gu is not a short-lived phenomenon but permanent, I really doubt that David is afraid that Gu will disappear completely in the future, so he will do everything possible to use Gu to gain attention and benefits for the alliance now." As the number one Gu Mi, Charles Barkley is not soft-mouthed, showing his big-mouthed nature.
Mike Dunleavy was warned by the league officials and received a $25,000 penalty without any suspense, while Charles Barkley has retired and the league has nothing to do with him.
No matter how much he complained, there was no way, Gu Fei could only participate in the 2008-2009 Phoenix All-Star Game, this time he was not alone, the two rookies in the team, Roy Hibbert and Mario Chalmers, both qualified for the first-year rookie with their outstanding performances with limited playing time locks, and their opponents were the second-year rookie team with Gu Fei and Noah, In the team, Ron Artest finally ranked fourth in the front line in the Western All-Star voting and was not selected to the bench and missed the Phoenix All-Star Game, and the fierce Western defender group did not bring Andre Miller, but the four-person lineup is enough to make Gu Fei not alone.
Gu Fei has become the vote king in the history of All-Star voting with his outstanding performance, 4550181 Zhang Xuan has thrown off the original All-Star Game historical record far away, and has also become a well-deserved starting guard in the West, this is also Gu Fei's second All-Star Game trip, the previous New Orleans All-Star Game Gu Fei became the most shining star - the record champion of the three-point competition, the rookie game won the MVP with the first-year and second-year victory, and the All-Star game won the MVP in the East, And this year's Gu Fei naturally became the focus of attention.
In the West, the guard who started with Gu Fei was Kobe Bryant, Kobe's 2805397 vote was second only to Gu Fei in the West, and the forward position was the millennium unchanged Shi Fertim Duncan and the host small bully Stoudemire, Yao Ming occupied the starting point of the Western All-Star Game without any suspense.
And the bench lineup in addition to the five starters is: the host shark Shaquille O'Neal, the Lakers' second-in-command Pau Gasol, the queen bee's right-hand man X-Men David West, the Mavericks' German tank Dirk Nowitzki, the French sports car Tony Parker, one of the GDP's French sports cars, the Nuggets' flounder Chauncy Billups, and the Trail Blazers Huang Manba Brandon Roy.
The starting lineup in the East is the second-most voted Monster Howard, the little emperor James, the Wolf King Garnett, the Flash Wade, and the Pistons' Allen Iverson. The bench is the Raptors' Chris Bosh who is replaced by an injury, the Magic's 20 million Mr. Rashad Lewis, the truth Paul Pierce, the Pacers' Danny Granger, the Hawks Joe Johnson, the Magic's Jamil Nelson is injured and the Nets' Devin Harris.
Gu Fei is the second group of players to stay at the official hotel provided by the All-Star Game, while the first batch is Shaquille O'Neal and Smalls of the Phoenix Suns.
"Your task this time is simple, to help an elementary school with a renovation of the school building, the name of the elementary school is Kaiser Chavez Elementary School, let's move forward," Erin Andrews shouted with the microphone, and the faces of the NBA players in the car were full of energy at the moment.
Erin Andrews was on staff at ESPN, the NBA Cares reporter, and after Andrews finished speaking, the bus started slowly and headed for Chavez Elementary School in the bright sunshine.
Gu Fei was the first to get off the car and the first to work, and the second was Yao Ming, as for Wade and Kobe Bryant, they were lagging behind, obviously showing signs of not wanting to work, Gu Fei's task was very simple, that is, to be a porter, accompanying the children to use plastic sheeting to send the sawdust left behind by the renovated school building to the playground.
"Gu, why are you and Yao so honest, look at Bryant and Dwyan, do you also consider doing this?" Andrews said.
"Do as much as you can." Gu Fei said with a smile, continuing to work seems to be a real person, and Yao Ming is even more tired, so he got into the house to drink saliva and hurriedly ran out, even if someone accidentally got the sawdust on his hair, Yao Ming just patted his head, and then said, "It's okay, keep doing." ”
Gu Fei and Yao Ming found fun in the manual work of porters, and when Kobe Bryant was late, Gu Fei unceremoniously pointed at him, "Bryant, you're finally here, hurry up and work." With that, Gu Fei directly pulled Kobe Bryant in front of the small hill made of sawdust.
"Do it like this, do this, Bryant, you are really stupid" Gu Fei teased while instructing Kobe Bryant's work, "Fall here, be careful, what's the matter, haven't you worked." Even so, Bryant was still lazy, repeating the "movement in place" - holding a shovel and shoveling sawdust onto the plastic sheeting in front of the "hill".
And then Wade also joined the army of lazy, and Gu Fei and Yao Ming were the busiest people, and when the hour of caring action was over, Gu Fei and Yao Ming's bodies were already wet.
After hurriedly returning to the hotel to take a shower, Gu Fei was about to rush to the conference room of the hotel to attend the media conference of the 2009 All-Star Game.
When Gu Fei walked into the media conference, the audience was crowded with various media, and in addition to the official staff and the general manager of the Suns, there were five players sitting on the stage - Kobe, Howard, James, Gu Fei, and Stoudemire.
When the press officer announced the start of the questioning, the media in the audience broke their heads one by one, and all kinds of questions converged into a noisy noise, and finally the press officer named the reporter of USA Today to ask the first question.
"Gu, you won three honors in New Orleans last year, how many are you going to win in Phoenix this year?"
Gu Fei didn't expect that the first question was his, he had never thought about it himself, and muttered a little, "No one will dislike it for honor, I think naturally the more the better." Gu Fei's answer was very pertinent, but in the eyes of those who cared, it was misinterpreted into another meaning.
James, who was separated by two people, glanced at Gu Fei and snorted softly.
"Gu Haoyan: The more, the better" This is the news of "USA Today" later, the news said that Gu Fei fought to win every competition he participated in, but Gu Fei's original intention was not so, and this news was used by many Gu Hei to attack Gu Fei in a big way.
"Gu, what do you think about the challenge of a first-year rookie? What do you think of the first-year players who claim to be able to beat the second-year this year? Another reporter stood up and asked.
"Then see you on the field" Gu Fei's answer was very simple, and then a large group of media were asking questions about some of the games in the three-point competition, Gu Fei and Kobe Bryant were the five people who answered the most questions, especially Kobe Bryant has been closely pursued by reporters to cooperate with O'Neal again.
When the morning activities were all over, Gu Fei felt physically and mentally exhausted, and in the afternoon he still needed to participate in the second-year training game, and the second-year players selected for the second year also included Gu Fei's lifelong enemy Kevin Durant and Durant's teammate Green, the Rockets' Scola and Brooks, the Pistons' Starkey, the Hawks' Horford, Will Son Chandler, etc., and the first-year was led by the champion Derrick Rose, including Beasley and others. In the first-year team, in addition to his teammate Gu Fei, the most familiar is none other than Andre Jordan, who left the Clippers, Jordan occupied the position of the first backup center in the Pacers, and his playing time has been increasing, although the average number of fouls per game is still high, 3.4 fouls in an average of 22 minutes per game, in addition, Jordan can contribute 6.6 points and 6.8 rebounds and 1.5 blocks to the Pacers, which is like a new hope for the future inside.
"Yes, we're rookies, but our quality is obvious to all, and I don't think we're going to lose," Mike Beasley of the Heat said directly to the media, turning the pre-game media fabrication into a fact.
"They did it last year, and I hope we can do it with our efforts," said Derrick Rose, who was much more low-key and not as direct as Beasley.
"Mike has the quality, but the second year is not easy to deal with, as a coach I will do my best to help them, Dwight I don't think I will be my opponent in terms of coaching" Dwyane Wade, the assistant coach of the first grade, also stepped up to entertain.
In the face of Wade's words, the funny supremacy Warcraft replied while dancing a mechanical dance in the face of the media: "Dwyan's naked discrimination this time, I will use my tactics to tell him my coaching level, in fact, Stan has always told me that I have the talent to become a cardinal, this time is the stage for me to prove, are you ready for the first-year rookies?" ”
"Not every first-grade is like us" Durant's answer was simple, but it said enough about everything he wanted to say.
And Gu Fei also spoke in an interview before the game, "I was also from their perspective last year, and this year I stood from a new angle, but the only thing I want to do now is not to fail." ”
The rookies of the class of 2008 are known as one of the best rookies in NBA history in terms of quality, and with leaders like Gu Fei, Durant, and Horford on the sophomore side, the entertainment-oriented All-Star Rookie Challenge has become more and more interesting in the atmosphere of winning first.
At 8:40 a.m. on February 24, 2009, the players of the Rookie Challenge took the stage in the hoarse shouts of the live DJ, accompanied by the shouts of the audience, the famous American diva Beyoncé fell from the sky, and the American national anthem echoed in every corner of the Phoenix Suns' home court.
"Guys, you don't want those first-year rookies to do what you did last year, yes, I know you won't, but the main purpose of this game is to have fun, and on top of entertainment we need to win, it's that simple," Howard said, looking around at the players.
"Horford, Green, Durant, Gu, Starkey, you five starters" As the coach's words fell, the five people stepped on the floor, and the five first-year starters were greeted opposite. (To be continued.) )
