Chapter 163 162: Eastern Gangster (please vote for me!)
In Li Ang's mind, a lot of things happened in 2001.
The national football team finally entered the World Cup in history. On the day of qualifying, KFC gave away free ice cream cones, countless small counties set off firecrackers, and fans rushed to the streets holding five-star red flags and shouted long live China.
Everyone thought this was just the beginning.
In 2001, BJ successfully bid for the Olympics, and the whole country celebrated.
WTO, we became a member. A young man named Jay Chou played nunchaku. "Meteor Garden" was playing on the TV, and "Shaolin Soccer" was playing in the cinema.
2001 was definitely an extraordinary year.
The beginning of this history in 2001 was also very extraordinary.
Because a Chinese will very likely become the starting player of the NBA All-Star Game in history!
"Lee Ang surpassed Grant Hill in the first round and is expected to become the starting forward of the Eastern All-Star Team!"
"The age of young people has come? The three starters for the Eastern Stars are expected to be no more than 25 years old!"
"The first Asian All-Star starter is about to be born!"
Today is January 7th, one week has passed since 2001, and the 2001 All-Star voting has also started for one week.
In the East, the top five players currently receiving votes are Carter, Iverson, Leon, Grant Hill and Mourning!
If the votes continue like this, then these five people can just form a starting lineup, with exactly two backcourts, two frontcourts and one center.
If the competition is fierce, then just looking at the results of the first round of voting is not enough to determine who will become the starter in the All-Star Game.
But here in the east, apart from these five people, there are really not enough people to watch.
Tim Hardaway, Marbury, Eddie Jones, Mashburn, Ratliff.
It is really difficult for the remaining people in the east to shake the status of those five people.
This also means that Li Ang is very likely to become an All-Star starting player!
After all, as a violent dunker and master of off-ball offense, Li Ang is indeed very popular in the league.
This kind of player who abuses the frame whenever he disagrees and abuses others when he is unhappy has always been the favorite of fans.
What's more, the Raptors' record this season is not bad, and they have been firmly in the top three in the Eastern Conference. If he plays well and wins, can Li Ang's number of votes be lower?
In addition, after a year, the penetration rate of the Internet in China has increased a lot, and many Chinese fans can vote for Li Ang, which has increased Li Ang's votes a lot.
As everyone knows, Xiao Yao spent his own money to invite the entire Shanghai team to the Internet cafe a few days ago.
Don't get me wrong, Xiao Yao didn't take a bunch of people to the Internet cafe to spend the night together to be gangsters, but he took everyone to the Internet cafe to vote for Li Ang.
As soon as the results of the first round of voting came out, fans across the country were jubilant.
Although Li Ang already played in the All-Star Game last season and was an All-Star last season, Li Ang, as the dunk king of the century, is even more popular than the All-Star MVP.
A year later, fans still remember every dunk by Li Ang, but they can't remember who the All-Star MVP is.
But even so, Chinese fans are still very proud to see a Chinese player have the opportunity to become an All-Star starter.
Li Ang looked at the results of the first round and to be honest, he was quite excited.
In comparison, competition in the West is much more intense.
A werewolf like Garnett could only rank third among forwards in votes, and Malone, who had just come back from the game, couldn't even make it into the top five.
David Robinson, Ewing who transferred to Seattle, O'Neal and Damn, the four major centers need to compete for an All-Star starting position.
Just bloody.
Compared with the fierce competition and luxurious lineup in the Western Conference, the starlight in the Eastern Conference will be dimmer.
Looking at the five Eastern Stars, Mourning has been suppressed by Shaq all his life and is doing crazy output. The only honors he can get are two DPOYs.
Carter only had one third team. Although Iverson won the scoring title, overall his performance in leading the team was nothing worth mentioning.
Not to mention Grant Hill, he only played four games this season and started his paid vacation. Although he got a lot of votes, the All-Star Game is definitely not going to happen, and people speculate that his teammate Tracy McGrady will be the one to take over.
If it were McGrady, it would be even less honorable. He has just shown his worth this season.
And Li Ang is even more of a whiteboard player, whiter than Tracy McGrady.
As a second-year player, he is best known for his two honors, the Rookie of the Year and the Youngest Rebounding Champion. The Rookie of the Year award is half the number awarded to him and Freddie.
Compared with those players in the West who can easily make several best lineups, the players in the East are indeed a little lower.
Therefore, many media said: "This may be the All-Star class with the largest disparity in strength in history!"
"You know that someone like Li Ang can't play in the All-Star starting lineup, right? He doesn't have the ability."
"You only need to think about how the Eastern Conference competes with the luxurious inside line of Shaq, Duncan, KG and Webber, etc., and you will know how likely they are to win."
"To be honest, once the voting results came out, I had no interest in the All-Star Game."
Most of the reports ridiculed the dimming of the Eastern Conference All-Star team's star power. Li Ang looked at the newspaper and was not angry at all.
Because as early as a week ago, he received the task from the system: "The most difficult All-Star Weekend in history!"
"Mission goal: Counterattack with the brothers from the Eastern Team, defeat the powerful Western Conference, and shine as an All-Star!
Mission reward: Randomly select one of the Eastern team's starting players and obtain 2-6 points of his strength attributes. "
Li Ang likes tasks that directly add attributes. Simple and crude, without beating around the bush.
But it is also very difficult to complete this task.
One fact that must be admitted is that the Western Conference Stars are indeed better on paper than the Eastern Conference, and they are more than a little stronger.
If nothing else, things like O'Neal are not for man defense, you know.
Don't get me wrong, Li Ang is not scolding Xiao Yao for not being a human being. He is saying that this low-level killer is not human at all!
In the original 2001 All-Star Game, the Eastern Conference team won the game. Then someone may ask, what is so difficult about this task? In the original history, they could win without Li Ang. Is it possible that they would still lose with Li Ang in the mix?
Difficult, very difficult.
Because winning the competition in 2001 was very accidental.
The Eastern team was still 21 points behind in the final quarter, and relied on the incredible performance of AI and horse legs to turn the game around.
The 2001 All-Stars are therefore known as the All-Stars that are most like the Finals and are a classic among classics.
Both sides played very seriously, and the confrontation was even very fierce at one point. Coupled with the drama of reversal in the final quarter, it became even more climax.
At this time, although the players only regarded the All-Stars as a performance, they were still more shameless.
A performance is a performance, and you have to compete to win.
Everyone is the star of their respective teams, and no one wants to obey anyone else.
Unlike the All-Stars in the future, there is a family atmosphere where everyone is brothers. Why are we so serious?
And in the future All-Stars, many people will turn around and see that the All-Stars are either teammates or former teammates.
Since it was a reversal to win, it shows that chance is extremely strong.
If the same situation happens again, the Eastern team may not be able to come back again.
It is indeed not an easy task to win against the Western Conference Stars again.
"Damn, that guy Tracy is so lucky to step on shit." Carter looked at the results of the first round of voting. He didn't care about the media's disparagement of the Eastern Conference, but he cared about the possibility of Tracy McGrady replacing Hill. Start this thing.
In his opinion, if he and McGrady are both All-Star starters, wouldn't that prove that McGrady and I are on the same level?
Shame on you!
Speaking of which, Li Ang didn't know if Grunwald regretted it now.
If he hadn't let go of Tracy last summer, the Raptors would now have three All-Star starters.
Of course, it's not necessarily true. If McGrady continues to stay with Carter, he may not be able to grow so fast.
In Orlando, the reason why Tracy was able to grow rapidly was not only due to his own extraordinary talent, but also mainly because he was the one who hugged the thigh and accidentally became the thigh.
Duncan didn't come, and Hill only played four games before he went home, his wife and children were on the bed, and McGrady was the only one left among the promised three.
It is comparable to an online dating site showing up at a large-scale car rollover scene, and the real thing is seriously inconsistent with the cake.
What can Trish do? I can only let go and swing by myself.
But if he continues to stay in the Raptors, he may not have so many opportunities.
In short, Carter definitely doesn't want to be suppressed by his cousin. Therefore, how Li Ang can unite everyone in the All-Star Game is also a problem.
Li Ang feels that it is so difficult for him, why can't he give me some simple tasks?
For example, a task like playing from position one to position five in one game.
If there is such a task, we, Lao Li, can handle it in a matter of minutes.
All-Star voting is still in full swing. When the outside world questioned the value of the Eastern Conference All-Stars, Leon and Carter led the team to a good record in January, which proved the value of their All-Star starters.
From January 9th to January 19th, in 10 days, the Raptors played 7 games and achieved a record of 6 wins and 1 loss!
During this period, except for the loss to the Suns on the 16th, the Raptors won all games.
Because they have won so many games, Li Ang is still a few games away from being promoted for the second time this season.
But before that, Li Ang had to go through a fierce battle.
On January 21, the Philadelphia 76ers, who lead the league in record, will face the Toronto Raptors, currently second in the Eastern Conference.
At the beginning of the season, no one could have imagined that these two teams were leading the Eastern Conference.
The configuration of the 76ers is still as weird as ever. Iverson plays 1V5 multiplayer sports every night, which is as intense as football. But the 76ers can really win by relying on this model, which is annoying or not.
It is even more incredible that the Raptors are ranked higher than last season without McGrady's long and thin third leg.
These two unexpected teams stand together and play in a heartbeat.
Last season, Li Ang had no experience playing against the 76ers.
To put it bluntly, Iverson was exhausted.
If you let him score points alone, I believe he can kill the game.
So in this game, the Raptors' strategy is exactly the same as before.
Before the game started, Larry Brown stared at Leon. Ever since Li Ang made Bowen's anus explode last season, Brown has always hated the Chinese who ruined his good deeds.
Iverson also stared closely at Leon and Carter. He knew that these two men were not easy to mess with, so he was ready to do his best to consolidate the team's first position in the Eastern Conference.
After the game started, the AI showed a strong desire to score.
But no matter how great Iverson is, he is only one person. Soon, Carter's singles + Li Ang's defense gave the Raptors an advantage.
After the first quarter, the 76ers were 3 points behind 23 to 26. This was because Iverson played a full 11 minutes in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, Iverson played the game directly, but the 76ers were still 5 points behind.
In the entire first half, the AI only rested for one minute. Li Ang also admired Larry Brown for being really good at this.
He really doesn't know what is going on in this guy's mind. How about you give Iverson a helper who can score?
Just when everyone thought that the AI that only had a minute's rest at halftime would completely collapse in the second half, the AI in the second half broke out without warning.
In the fifth minute of the third quarter, after being double-teamed, Li Ang passed the ball back to Mark Jackson to reorganize. As a result, the extremely fast AI suddenly came out and intercepted the ball before Jackson received the basketball, and then took advantage of the fast break. Succeeded with a dunk.
One round later, George Lynch hit a mid-range shot. Li Ang was about to rush back after interfering with his shot, but he saw Iverson pulling green onions directly from the dry land and riding Oakley to complete the tip-in!
You know, his official height is only 183cm!
Even Li Ang, who had twice the bullet speed bonus, had to shout "Liu Beep" in his heart after seeing this bullet speed.
At this point, Iverson officially began his incredible performance.
He dodged the big levers of two people in the air, faced Mark Jackson from outside the three-point line, missed a three-pointer, and knocked down Dell Curry for a layup.
Li Ang feels that in almost every round, the 76ers' offensive tactics are Iverson's singles.
But damn, he really seems to be scoring every turn.
Use all kinds of postures, all kinds of incredible ways to put that damn basketball in the frame.
Where are Leon and Carter? They tried their best, but they still couldn't match Iverson's firepower.
Wilkens was still yelling: "Hold on, don't panic, he can't kill the game alone!"
Then
Iverson really killed the game in 1V5!
The moment the electronic buzzer sounded, Iverson was sweating profusely and waving his arms.
96 to 90, the Philadelphia 76ers were away in Toronto and personally killed the Raptors who were clinging to them!
Carter scored 39 points and Liang scored 23 points and 17 rebounds. The performance of these two people was outstanding.
But Iverson, he made 20 of 40 shots today and scored 51 points without overtime!
Not to mention anything else, taking 40 shots in a single game can tire most people to death.
You know, the 76ers only took 86 shots.
AI alone accounts for almost half of the team's shots.
"Allen Iverson unbelievably won the Raptors. This is why Philadelphia can lead the league this season! A great scorer, a great victory, and worthy of being the No. 1 pick of the 1996 golden generation!"
Li Ang put his hands on his knees, panting.
He glanced at Carter beside him, and the demigod brother just shook his head helplessly.
I really can't squeeze out a drop of it, but there is someone opposite me who can score 51 points in a single game. Who are you going to talk to about this?
Iverson's offense, let's put it this way, you don't even have a chance to guard him.
The AI in the 00-01 season is worthy of being the ruthless character who can steal a victory from the OK combination.
At this time, Li Ang couldn't help but think of what Kobe Bryant said in the future: "Today's young people have no idea how strong Iverson is."
How long has Li Ang been in the league? He has watched him score 40+ points in games against Iverson more than once.
Speaking of which, in original history, the 2001 Raptors lost to the 76ers in the Eastern Conference semifinals in a tiebreaker.
If this history still meets the 76ers, it will be terrible.
"Let's go, we must find a way to deal with him next time." Li Ang straightened his back again. It seems that this season, AI and his 76ers are the Raptors' biggest opponents.
"Fuck, what a pervert, those goals he scored don't make sense at all." Carter also complained.
"Well, he is indeed very strong, but we are only a little short."
After speaking, Li Ang put his arm around Carter's shoulders and prepared to return to the locker room.
As soon as they turned around, Leon and Carter saw AI standing in front of them.
"You played well tonight, but you pushed me hard. Come on, you almost guarded me."
Leon, Carter:
Don't worry about this Versailles, I tell you that both of us brothers have practiced before!
"Hahaha, just kidding. To be honest, I admire you very much. You are worthy of being the two forwards starting in the Eastern Conference All-Stars. My breakthrough, Carter's shooting, coupled with Li Ang's. Li Ang's. The cooperation between the three of us will definitely make a difference. Big deal!" When talking about Li Ang's advantages, Iverson actually got stuck and didn't say it for a long time.
Li Ang clenched his fists, you should tell me what my advantages are, bastard!
This is not to blame Iverson, the main reason is that he really doesn't know where Li Angqiang is.
He can't dribble the ball, he can't shoot the basket accurately, and he can only do layups as a high school student.
Iverson couldn't even praise him.
But Iverson didn't know why, even this seemingly useless Li Ang could always cause trouble for his opponents.
Maybe it's because he's really strong off the ball.
Li Ang resisted the urge to punch Iverson's cornhead into popcorn and asked: "Cooperation? Cooperation for what?"
"You haven't seen the media reports during this period, right? Our Eastern Conference team is looked down upon by the whole world.
I know that All-Star is just entertainment, winning or losing is not important.
But I am not convinced!
Why are they invincible in the west? Why do people unanimously believe that we will lose?
We are all all-stars, who is more advanced than whom?
Don't you want to give them something awesome?
I don't think we're any worse than those bastards in the West. I want to fight them with real swords, win, and surprise the bastards who belittled us.
But I definitely can’t do it alone, and I need your support.
how? Do you dare or not? Come with me and we will destroy the West! "
Li Ang looked at the serious-faced AI, as if he knew why he had attracted so many fans at the beginning of the century.
This 183-year-old guy has the blood of giants flowing through him.
What if we cooperated with an AI that casually scored 51 points in a single game?
Then this year's All-Star mission may really be saved!
"Okay, of course it would be good to win, right Vince?" Li Ang nodded in agreement. Although Carter had no interest, he nodded in agreement with Li Ang.
Seeing this, AI laughed happily and put his hand in front of Li Ang. The three people who were fighting for their lives just now put their hands together.
In 2001, it was a cold night in Toronto. Eastern Gangster is officially open for business!
Today I have two updates with 11,000 words. It’s another day full of conscience. I’m begging for monthly votes!
