Chapter 356
In the Rockefeller Center, a large number of fans applauded the Suns players who had left the field. This is the respect they deserve and the charm of competitive sports!
Sitting in the car, Bruce listened to the explanation of the game on the radio, and couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and the previous confusion also dissipated a lot!
"Ted, let's go directly to the arena!" Bruce patted the back of the driver's chair lightly and said with a smile.
"Understood, boss!"
Twenty minutes later, as the car drove into the underground parking lot of the Warriors' stadium, Bruce pushed the door to get out of the car, thinking of the exciting performance of these players, he took a deep breath!
"Huh.. Never mind, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge!" Bruce laughed at himself, and then entered the arena along the working passageway!
In the arena, the Warriors players all looked sideways at the side of the Suns rest area, and everyone looked at them with respect!
"Haha, this is the game I like. I haven't felt this kind of spirit for a long time!" Barkley clapped his hands excitedly as he said, seeing his teammates looking at him, he was very serious Said: "Let us pay tribute to these guys with the most serious attitude and competitive state!!"
Afterwards, when the fourth quarter started, even though the Suns players were physically exhausted, they still frantically caused troubles for the Warriors on both ends of the offense and defense!
And with Barkley's proposal before, the Warriors players are just like them. The excitement of this game can't help but make all the fans in the audience excited and cheering!
"What a wonderful game this is!" Bruce couldn't help but be filled with emotion as he watched the players' hard work on the TV.
When the final whistle of the game sounded, even though the Suns still lost the game with a score of 98:102, their professionalism was really recognized by all the fans at home.
For the first time in the Rockefeller Center, there was a situation of cheering for the visiting team!
Back in the locker room, the players of the Warriors felt very hearty. The matchup in this game was as refreshing as the semi-finals, and everyone was extremely excited!
When the players were talking excitedly, Bowen, who had always seemed a little silent, suddenly said, "Uh, guys, do we need to visit Vince?"
With the end of Bowen's words, the players in the locker room stopped their actions.
Barkley looked at the expressions of his teammates and said with a smile: "Why not? We are a strong whole!!"
"Yes, that's right!!"
"We are one!!"
The players echoed each other, and when Bruce stood outside the locker room and heard what the players said, he couldn't help showing a smile on his face: "That's right, we are one!!"
On the [-]th, when the news of Carter's injury was reported by a large number of media, the future performance of the Warriors this season was discussed by a large number of columnists and fans!
Everyone thinks that the Warriors' best performance this season will be similar to last season's performance, and for the championship, there may be basically no advantage anymore!
From the very beginning of this season, other teams in the league have behaved a little abnormally. I don't know if it is the internal strife of the Lakers and a series of summer operations that have caused some unexpected things to happen to each team!
The contradiction between O'Neal and Kobe was suddenly reported by the media, and the Bucks, which were very strong last season, seemed to suddenly fall into chaos after Glenn Robinson was injured and the team had problems. middle!
The most surprising ones are the Mavericks and the Nets. These two teams in the East and West have shown strong performances since the beginning of the season!
Under the coaching of the old Nelson, the Mavericks performed the bombardment tactics to the fullest. The performance of Jamison and Finley shocked all the people who paid attention to them!
Since Jamison recovered from the previous injury, he has become more and more important in Nelson's tactics, especially his shooting, which has surprisingly reached a very surprising height after the injury!
With Finley's return, even though the Mavericks still had a record of 14 wins and 1 loss without him, no one can doubt Finley's offensive strength!
The rise of the Nets is the biggest "surprise" in the league. After the previous exchange between Kidd and Marbury, no one was optimistic about the performance of the two teams!
But under Kidd's superb threading, Kenyon Martin, who was already a mighty mess, was like a real beast coming out of the cage, leading the Nets' frontcourt with shocking alley-oops and dunks one after another!
And another surprise is Richard Jefferson, who was traded by Vandeweghe before. So far this season, with the sudden explosion of talent, he has a certain advantage in Byron Scott's tactics. A huge improvement!
Even though Van Horn and Kiedles firmly occupy the positions of small forward and shooting guard, Jefferson can still get up to 24 minutes of playing time, and his playing time is the highest outside of several lottery picks. one person!
With Kidd's arrival, the Nets' previously chaotic tactics and fragmented situation disappeared little by little, replaced by smooth and flowing water.
At the stage where the All-Stars are about to start, Old Nelson and Byron Scott have become the two most popular coaches for the Eastern and Western All-Star teams. They use different styles to bring the two teams into the The ranks of the powerful East and West!
At this time, the NBA's starting list for the Eastern and Western All-Stars was also produced under the attention of all fans!
In the final voting results of the current NBA All-Star Game, Carter was ahead of the former "Flying Man" Jordan with an advantage of 50 votes, ranking first in the number of All-Star votes for the third consecutive year.
The final vote of this All-Star lineup determines the Eastern and Western starting lineups for this season's All-Star Game.
Carter has become the top voter in the All-Star Game for three consecutive years. He has won the love of a large number of fans with his various offensive methods and imaginative dunks!
However, Michael Jordan, who was regarded as the "God of Basketball" in the past, took off his royal robe in this election!
In this year's All-Star voting, apart from Carter's amazing third consecutive year of winning the vote, the most exciting thing after that is the Lakers Gemini!
In the final result of the voting, O'Neal still broke through one million votes and reached more than 120 million votes, while another superstar, Kobe Bryant, relied on his super personal ability and desire for victory, making him the second only 110 million votes for O'Neill!
Except for these three superstars who won more than one million votes, only two players in the All-Star voting exceeded 90 votes. They are the old Michael Jordan and the trend-leading Allen Iverson!
From here, we can also see how influential Carter and the others have in the eyes of the fans!
After voting, the East and West All-Star starters are respectively, the Eastern starters, Allen Iverson, Michael Jordan, Antoine Walker, Dikembe Mutombo and Jason J. Kidd.
The starters in the Western Conference are Vince Carter, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan.
In view of Garnett's brief experience of playing small forward, the NBA deliberately placed him in the small forward position, and with this arrangement, the height of the Western All-Stars will be much higher than that of the Eastern Conference!
With the release of the All-Star starting lineup, a large number of fans were suddenly attracted by all the news of the All-Star game!
The final list of the slam dunk contest is still the same as before, because the stars have been unable to participate due to various problems, so this year's slam dunk contest will be Francis's performance alone.
And the three-point contest has not yet been announced by the league because there are too many registered players!
As the All-Star Game is getting closer, both fans and players who are about to participate have expressed their expectations in some media and interviews!
The Philadelphia 76ers are undoubtedly the most looking forward to this All-Star. In order to make this global event the most perfect show, they specially sent people to Los Angeles to visit the headquarters of Miracle Entertainment!
Bruce looked at the executives of the 76ers sitting on the sofa in front of him with a smile, and he was very clear about their intentions!
"Billy, you are very welcome!" Bruce said to one of them with a smile, and he and the other party had a little friendship.
"Bruce, thank you very much for your hospitality!" Billy King said with a smile. Even though he is shrewd in some transactions, it does not mean that he is just a shrewd businessman. After all, it is possible to get Miracle Entertainment at this time On the head, there is nothing wrong with being polite!
"Haha, you don't have to be so polite, we are friends!!" Bruce laughed and shook his hands, and said directly, very casually: "I know what your intentions are here, so I'll just say it straight!"
When they heard Bruce's words, they all looked like they were listening attentively.
"For this year's All-Star Game, we are not going to participate." Speaking of this, when Bruce saw that Billy King was a little anxious and wanted to say something, he hurriedly shook his hand: "No, no, no, Billy, we just said we weren't going to participate, but we didn't say we weren't going to help Philadelphia!"
"Huh..." Billy King couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief after hearing this!
The NBA, including the entire United States, is looking forward to the All-Star Game, and their biggest anticipation factor is how Bruce's Miracle Entertainment will perform it!
Since the Warriors successfully hosted a shocking All-Star Game in 2000, coupled with their handling of the Washington Wizards, his miracle entertainment has received everyone's attention!
And with the successful and shocking event of hosting the All-Star Game for two years, the Philadelphians don't think their team can create a wonderful performance that far surpasses the previous two!
That's why they rushed to Los Angeles in a hurry!
"Billy, for this year's All-Stars, we will send a professional team to go, and we will actively cooperate with your work!" A smile flashed in Bruce's eyes, and he said seriously: "But, I think You already have a plan to invite the finale superstar, I hope you can settle the previous rumor within two days, and only after this is done, we can complete all the work as soon as possible!"
"This." Billy King touched the ring on his finger in embarrassment, and then thought that the All-Star Game was very close, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "I will do everything possible to get Elton's !"
Afterwards, after Bruce had a few more details with Billy King, this sent them off the business!
