081 All-Star Poll
Come back in the second half.
Fans continue to look forward to the collision of Anthony and Li Lei.
But both of them have a different degree of decline.
And neither team will allow their opponents to score so easily.
Anthony and Li Lei feel good, so they naturally become the focus of the opponent's defense, and it is difficult to get a chance to make a shot.
The Heat relied on the excellent form of Odom and Jones to widen the gap little by little.
At 78:69 of the third quarter, the Heat led by nine points.
In the crucial fourth quarter, Anthony scored 7 points in a row, once narrowing the gap to 2 points.
At the last moment, Li Lei hit a three-point cold arrow, which pierced the heart, directly extinguishing the last hope of the Nuggets.
In the end, 97-93, the Heat narrowly defeated the Nuggets.
The overall record came to 27-14.
At the end of the game, the Heat played exactly half of the game.
In this game, Anthony had 25 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal.
Li Lei had 20 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
The two can be said to be equal, and they are on a par.
January 20th.
The Heat narrowly beat the Celtics 88-86.
But Li Lei was completely blown up by Paul Pearce.
Pierce went down to earth and scored 29 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals.
The Heat have a 28-14 record.
January 21.
Chinese New Year's Eve.
The Heat just didn't play.
Li's father and Li's mother came to Miami to accompany Li Lei to reunite.
They also specially prepared some small gifts: Chinese knots and the like for Li Lei's teammates.
Haslem, who lives with Li Lei, is also feasting, eating dumplings and glutinous rice balls for the first time, and he can't stop eating until he eats them.
On the 23rd and 24th, the Heat defeated the Nets and Knicks one after another.
The overall record came to 30-14.
In both games, the Heat ended the third quarter and went into garbage time.
Wang Zhizhi got a lot of playing time in the fourth quarter.
His defensive problems are still serious, but the improvement is also visible to the naked eye.
Coach Dafan kept nodding his head.
He knows all about Wang Zhizhi's practice, and it is precisely because Wang Zhizhi works hard enough that Coach Dafan is willing to give him another chance.
……
January 26th.
The entire Houston team traveled to Miami to take on the Heat.
Li Lei invited Yao Ming to dinner.
Yao Ming's mood was complicated.
The last time the two teams met, the Heat won 0-6 and Mosaic won 4-1.
And now, the Heat are 30-14 and the Mosaics are 18-25.
The Heat's results have been on the rise in recent times.
Even if Wade is out for a long time, the Heat don't seem to be affected much.
On the other hand, the Mosaic team...... It's hard to put into words.
Yao Ming was tired.
Rumours are flying, the boss of the team is dissatisfied with the management, the coaching staff is dissatisfied with the management, and there are problems between the management.
There have also been rumors recently that owner Alexander is also dissatisfied with the management.
The start of the season was good, but these problems were swept under the rug.
Now the results of the Mosaic team are in shambles, and all the problems have exploded in an instant.
Yao Ming has the delusion that the Mosaic team may be disbanded tomorrow.
This game was also broadcast by CCTV.
Fans are looking forward to watching a Chinese derby.
But from the first minute of the opening game, the Heat had the upper hand and held it until the end of the game.
Yao Ming's state is not good.
It's not because of the team, it's that the Mosaics just played a game yesterday, and the Heat are back-to-back.
Playing magic yesterday, Yao Ming slashed 37 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks, and today he is a little sluggish.
From the beginning of entering the league, Yao Ming has a characteristic, the last game is outbreaking, and the next game is bound to be sluggish, let alone back-to-back.
The reason for this is mostly due to physical fitness.
In this game, Yao Ming only played 28 minutes, made 5 of 9 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 12 points, 6 rebounds and 1 assist.
Li Lei scored 20 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
Because of the early garbage time, Wang Zhizhi also got 10 minutes of playing time.
Dazhi angrily slashed 7 points and 1 assist, and the scoring efficiency is still amazing.
This has made Chinese fans make up for a lot of regrets: Dazhi has been getting better and better recently.
In the end, the Heat defeated the Mosaics 102-81.
The Heat's overall record is 31-14.
At the end of this game, the Heat ushered in good news: Wade has recovered from injury and can pay early.
His sidelines have been cut from four weeks to three.
From January 5 to January 26, the Heat played 12 games without Wade, with a 10-2 record, and it seems that Wade's absence was not affected in the slightest.
The Heat remain in second place in the East, behind the 33-13 Pacers.
In these 12 games, Li Lei played well, 7 times 20+, 1 time 30+, averaging 19.5 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.7 blocks per game, and was the top scorer of the Heat.
Therefore, Li Lei got a lot of all-star votes.
In China, there are also many fans who voted for Li Lei.
The original Li Lei scored only 13+, even if it is Chinese, many Chinese fans are embarrassed to vote for Li Lei.
It's a bit shabby to let a small forward with a score of 13+ points make it to the All-Star.
But now, Li Lei has played so well that he has become the fourth youngest player in NBA history to score 30+, and Chinese fans have confidence.
Cast, no problem.
By the way, Odom's vote is also skyrocketing.
He has averaged 17.1 points, 9.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks per game so far this season, and is very versatile and on the verge of an All-Star.
The old Jones has declined a lot, averaging only 17+3+3+1 per game, and the All-Star is out of play.
Wade is tragic, he has too many injuries, he plays too little, and even if the data is good, he doesn't get many votes.
As of the end of the second round of voting, Carter is far ahead of the Eastern Conference forwards, ranking first.
O'Neal Jr.'s second position is also unassailable.
The third was Kenyon Martin, who had more than 400,000 votes.
The fourth is 350,000+ Artest.
The fifth is 300,000+ Pippen.
Li Lei and Odom ranked sixth and seventh respectively.
The Eastern forward position should be the least competitive among the entire All-Stars, and Li Lei and Odom also took advantage.
The Eastern defenders are: Iverson, Maddy, Kidd, James, Byron Davis "The Bearded", Marbury, Pierce, Reggie Miller, Billups, Hamilton.
It is worth mentioning that James and Pierce both participated in the voting as guards this year.
In the center of the East, Big Ben is firmly in first place, and the second Mourning has played 12 games in a season and does not pose any threat to Big Ben, but he can still rank second.
Third and fourth are Jamal Magloyer and Eddie Curry.
There is no center in the East.
In the west.
In the center position, Yao Ming and O'Neill were the first to fight for saber-rattling.
The next three, fourth and fifth are Brad Miller, Divac and Rasu Nesterovic.
Western Forward, the competition is called cruel.
The votes were, in descending order: Garnett, Duncan, Anthony, Nowitzki, Malone, Peja, Webb, Gasol, Anthony Walker...... In fact, anyone qualifies for being an All-Star.
The Western defenders are: Kobe, Francis, Payton, Nash, Ginobili, Mike Bibby, Parker, Ray Allen, Michael Finley, Mobley......
From the all-star vote, you can clearly see the pattern of the league being strong in the west and weak in the east.
The defenders on both sides are about the same.
But in the center and forward positions, the west crushes the east.
In the same way, you can see that this is a thriving age of defenders and forwards, while the center is dying.
January 28th.
The Heat are back in Cleveland.
This time, James didn't invite Li Lei to dinner.
Therefore, Li Lei plans to clean up James well.
Rice, how can you not eat it?
