Chapter 90: The Mysterious Power of the East
After a comfortable win over the Grizzlies at home, the Heat will next usher in a wave of four consecutive road trips in the West, against the Nuggets, SuperSonics, Kings, and Lakers.
And the game against the Lakers happened to be the Christmas game.
Although the strength of the Heat and Lakers is obvious from the current record of the two teams, the president still spares no effort to invest resources in publicity.
No way, who asked him to arrange another Christmas game is for the Pistons to beat the Pacers.
The Pistons and Pacers, he only set it two days ago.
Two players with indefinite bans – Big Ben, as the initiator of the incident, added a five-game ban to the existing one; Artest, on the other hand, was suspended for the rest of the regular season for the rest of the season for assaulting fans and accidentally injuring innocent fans, and his participation in the playoffs will depend on his performance in the next 100 hours of community service.
Counting the previous punishment decisions that have been issued, the punishment result of the Auburn Hills Palace this time is much lighter than the punishment result in the original history.
Altai could return in the playoffs, and there is hope for the Pacers' playoff journey.
However, to everyone's surprise, Atay did not show much regret at the hearing of the Battle of Auburn Hills, and even promoted his album scheduled to be released on November 23 in a follow-up interview.
It's not the first time Artest's brain has jumped the line like this, as early as the beginning of the season, Artest had a conflict with Carlisle because of this album, and this fool actually asked Carlisle to reduce his playing time so that he could get more rest so that he could concentrate on his album.
The two also quarreled in the locker room, and eventually Larry Bird sided with his friend and banned Atay for two games.
The battle of Auburn Hills Palace, the beating of teammates, and the suspension of the banned game, all achieved righteousness, but after Artest was suspended, he didn't want to change his performance, train hard, and go back to help the team in the playoffs, but instead ran to work on his album, which made the Pacers brothers a little chilled.
On the other hand, Milicic, who has recently been "forced" to play, has also performed well with the Pistons.
Although he is still a little bit off on the defensive end, on the offensive end, after he stabilized the substitute for Rasheed Wallace, he played an average of more than ten minutes per game, and his statistics have risen to the level of 9+5.
After seeing his value, Dumas now has dinner and chatted with Milicic for three days, talks to him again, reminisces about the Pistons' efforts to help him leave Serbia and Montenegro, and paints cakes for him to look forward to the future.
But Milicic just doesn't let go, even if there is a trend of being reused now, with relatively stable playing time, he still wants to go.
He's not the guy who doesn't know anything anymore, Larry Brown still has four years left on his contract with the team, which is longer than his contract, and staying with the team for the New Year is already his limit.

"Oh, don't worry, it's hard to say whether you win or lose the game, but what's so difficult about preventing him? You don't think buddies are like Marion's idiot and get shaken and fall, do you?
Usually I don't like defense, I really have to get serious, Artest is a ball, yes, Artest's guy who can *** down with two punches is not good, I think when I was shooting with others in Baltimore, that kid probably hasn't learned to fight."
The melon with the watermelon head waved it with his fingers, as if he was still reminiscing about his glorious days, but he couldn't help but shiver at the thought of a bullet hole that appeared on his body.
"Okay, let's stop talking, don't forget your promise of health care when I go to Cleveland in two days, hehehe."
Hung up the phone, and Melon put away her smile.
In the locker room, there were two posters that he pasted behind the locker door like wanted notices.
One is from James, who he pasted last season, and one is from Mowen, which he added after this season.
This is the "assassination list" he gave himself.
James' poster already has two big crosses drawn on it, and that's two wins he won last season
James' proof.
And this time, his hunting target became Mo Wen.
In the evening, the Heat's plane fell from the Denver Plateau, and the sunset stained the clouds they had just passed, and it was too late to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and the winter and the cold of the plateau made the players can't help but wrap their clothes tightly.
Mo Wen turned his phone back on, thinking that nothing would happen like before, but the text messages that popped up one after another told him that things were not so simple.
I clicked on one of the text messages that Heman had sent him, but what caught my eye was a string of numbers of unknown meaning.
& />
After flipping through several text messages in a row, he seemed to understand the meaning of this string of numbers.
That's the total number of votes he received in the first phase of the All-Star Games.
If he's not mistaken, there should be 5 rounds of All-Star voting this year...
The mysterious power from the East seems to have gotten a bit big this time.
Mo Wen silently turned off his phone, trying to pretend that nothing happened, but as the staff and Wade and O'Neal connected to the phone, the matter still couldn't be hidden.
"Mo, can you introduce that hacker to me, this is too powerful, there were more than a million tickets in the first round, and I only got a total of 80 votes when I first participated in the All-Star, and Mai Buckle only got 1.2 million votes in the season when I won the championship!" O'Neill whispered and said excitedly, hugging Mo Wen's neck.
"Hackers? Do you think I still need to find those things?"
Mo Wen shook his head disdainfully, then pointed to his shoulder and patted him again.
"Did you see that?"
O'Neill leaned in to see what he didn't see, "What do you see?"
"The anticipation of 1.3 billion people and the attention of the whole of Asia."
······
Anthony, who was still practicing at the training gym, asked the Economist three times for his All-Star vote.
&514
For him, this is already a lot of votes, and at the beginning of this year's Nuggets, which has more losses and fewer wins and fewer wins, there are 10,000 more votes than last year, and he should be very satisfied.
However, when he learned the results of the first round of votes, his good mood suddenly disappeared.
Mo Wen's votes are not twice as many as him, but ten times as many as him!
Of course, Anthony was not the only one who was shocked by Mo Wen's votes, and the first reaction of all the media and reporters who got the news was to confirm whether the votes were true.
In the original history, Da Yao became the vote king this year, and the unprecedented 880,000 votes won in the first round have already made people can't help but admire the "mysterious power of the East", and in this time and space, Mo Wen and Da Yao led the team to win the bronze medal, which catalyzed the domestic enthusiasm for basketball.
Because of Mo Wen's diversion, Da Yao received only 820,000 votes in the first round compared to his previous life.
Most of the votes and hatred were transferred to Mo Wen.
There were people within the coalition who advocated an appropriate "amendment" to Mo Wen's vote, but Stern rejected it.
As a master of the whole life, Stern's psychological grasp of the fans is dead.
Although the introduction of Chinese power seems to disrupt the balance of the game a bit, Mo Wen's own strength is not bad and can barely hold on.
can hold on, there are back and forth, there are topics and heat; If you can't hold back, then there will be a situation where Da Yao was questioned last season.
Later, the NBA continued to reduce the proportion of Chinese votes, because the behavior of Chinese fans who praised the UAE and Jeremy Lin was too outrageous, completely contrary to the original intention of the All-Star, so it could not solve the problem, then it could only solve the person who caused the problem.

"Anthony shook off Butler with a forward change of direction, picked up a back hit and turned around to shake off Wade, who was making up the defense, Dolyak didn't have time to return to the defense, and dunked directly - BANG! Anthony showed a much more energy than usual tonight."
"He's talking trash to Mo Wen on the bench, oh, Mo Wen took off his training uniform, this is again
Are you going to play?"
"Dead ball, the Heat team really made a substitution, Mo Wen came on the court and found Anthony directly, the two didn't look very friendly, and the referee needed to pay extra attention to them."
"Anthony catches the ball and breaks through... Anthony's breakthrough was prevented... Anthony was stealed... Anthony fell (crying)!"
I still broke my promise, I am guilty. But it's still a bit of progress.,Try to push the update time forward tomorrow.。
