Build a Dream Dynasty
Chapter 80 All-Star Preview
After the Devil's schedule in January, and before the All-Star Game in February, the Nets' games were relatively sweet. It's not that the opponents were weak, but there were no back-to-back games. The overall intensity was not very high. From time to time, they could eat and drink. The welfare of the opponent's boat and car.
For example, in the game against the Boston Celtics at home, the Celtics, with many veterans in the team, seemed to have lost their sights in back-to-back games against the Nets. Nate and Pierce were all exhausted, and O'Neill directly raised the exemption card. It can be understood that this is to save energy for the playoffs. After all, since the late Lakers, O'Neal has been used to maintaining health in the regular season.
At 107:96, the Nets took advantage of the convenience of the schedule to successfully upset and won the first victory in the three regular season matches between the two teams.
After winning this victory against the Celtics, the players of the Nets looked very excited.
So far this season, the other 29 teams in the league have played against each other. There were a few double-plays that beat the Nets, but the rhythm of the game was controlled, and the Celtics were the only ones who didn't give the Nets any chance. As the general manager, Jiang Mingliang himself didn't want to meet the Celtics in the playoffs, which showed the oppression given by the Celtics.
Facing the Celtics with an older age structure, the Nets took advantage of their physical strength and beat their opponents by waiting for work. But against the Oklahoma talent team, the physical advantage no longer works. How fast have the Thunder boys grown up? In the fourth grade, Durant is already a superstar in the top five MVPs, and Westbrook has also entered the All-Star bench in the West where there are many strongmen.
You can do whatever you want, I have Kevin Durant. After two-thirds of the season, Durant, who has basically secured the scoring title, faced various dissatisfaction with George's tyranny. The wave of flow in just four minutes of the third quarter directly took away the suspense of the game. If Anthony beat George because his own strengths hit George's weaknesses, then Durant's comparison with George is every advantage of yours, and I happen to be a little stronger than you.
124:111, the Thunder defended their home glory and double-killed the Nets at home and away.
In the last game before the All-Star break, the Nets played steadily against the Suns, which had entered a bad state, and won the victory with a 14-point difference, and improved the team's score to 31 wins and 27 losses.
The All-Star Weekend is a feast for basketball fans all over the world. For players, it is also a good opportunity to broaden their network. How can a player who has never been a teammate establish a good personal relationship? In addition to their school friendship, the confrontation on the field, training together in summer, and being happy together, the All-Star Game is also an opportunity. Especially those of the same age who participated in the draft together, among them, there may be less than one-fifth of them having the chance to be selected for the All-Star Game in the future, and the rookie game for two consecutive years is their best chance.
Considering that George's hometown is in Los Angeles, Stevens released it one day in advance, allowing George and Bledsoe to go to Los Angeles to enjoy their own All-Star weekend.
"I also feel a little sorry for Brook. Among the top seven in the Eastern Conference, we are the only ones who don't have an All-Star." Jiang Mingliang expressed his dissatisfaction with Rivers in his words.
"Paul worked out well during the offseason, and he should have a chance next season." Sitting opposite Jiang Mingliang, Stevens replied while watching the game video of Leonard and Klay Thompson.
"If you can become the All-Star head coach of the Eastern Conference next season, then it's a certainty." Jiang Mingliang poured the brewed coffee into Stevens' cup and encouraged him.
"Wow! That's hard." He made a surprised expression, but Stevens didn't show confidence in his eyes.
Objectively speaking, it is indeed difficult. Because Rivers was elected this year, theoretically speaking, Bulls coach Thibodeau and Heat coach Spoelstra will have a chance to win next season. And the two of them still have the advantage of emotional points. Unless the Nets' performance next season can be far ahead, otherwise, let's wait for the next year.
"Oh, I also find it difficult." With a wry smile, Jiang Mingliang said helplessly, "It seems that I am inflated. It's all due to LeBron."
"Leonard is very suitable for us as a defender to limit Cameron and LeBron. Although Paul has good core strength, he still doesn't have enough weight." same judgment.
Simply comparing Thompson and Leonard can only say that each has its own advantages and disadvantages. But being in the East and aiming to compete with the Heat, it would be better to choose Leonard who has a skeleton and strength that can carry James.
Think about the perimeter composed of Bledsoe, George, and Leonard, how terrifying is the defensive ability? Reinforcing a power forward, over time, the team can challenge the Heat's hegemony in the Eastern Conference.
"I think so too, so I have to strive for a higher draft pick as much as possible. After all, it seems that he is quite popular now."
As for the power forward position, the position where the team has exposed the most problems so far, Jiang Mingliang has also selected candidates for reinforcement. And will give a quotation contract that exceeds the market price. Anyway, at present, the Nets lack other things, and what they do not lack is salary space.
. . . . . . .
The game schedule for the All-Star Weekend has also been released. On the 18th, there will be a Rookie Challenge. On the 19th, there will be a Shooting Star Game, a Skills Challenge, a Three-Point Shootout Contest, and a Slam Dunk Contest. Finally, on the 20th, the finale of the All-Star Weekend, the Eastern and Western All-Star Game.
The All-Star game came to the Staples Arena, home of the Los Angeles Lakers, just as Hollywood is also located in this city. Hollywood, Universal Studios, Disney, Hollywood Walk of Fame, Beverly Hills. It is suitable for Jiang Mingliang to accompany jessica to spend a period of vacation.
At this time in February, coming to Los Angeles from New York is actually quite painful. The climate in New York has four distinct seasons. In the winter when it should snow, you will always feel the baptism brought by the blizzard. In LA, a thin coat outside the T-shirt is enough.
Jiang Mingliang made enough preparations, but Jessica, who appeared at the airport wrapped in a windbreaker, was a little out of tune with the surrounding environment.
"It's been a long time since I came to LA. I didn't expect it to be so hot." Jessica is from San Francisco, but after going to Korea to develop her career as an idol, the number of people coming to LA will decrease a lot. LA has an absolute advantage in film and television, but there are far more musicians stationed in New York. The New Year's Eve concert in Times Square always attracts the most popular singers of the year to participate. Jessica's female singing group came to the United States to do activities and appeared more often in New York.
"Let's go back to the hotel first, I've already booked the room."
Jiang Mingliang is okay, but Jessica is definitely tired from the nearly 12-hour flight from Seoul, South Korea to the west coast.
Jiang Mingliang booked the Hilton Hotel at Los Angeles Airport, of course he reserved two rooms.
Jessica started to giggle at the front desk, biting her lip and sneaking a sneak peek at Jiang Mingliang intentionally or unintentionally.
Not particularly impatient!
Two well-dressed waiters carried their suitcases and followed them into the room. Jiang Mingliang generously tipped them two hundred dollars.
The United States is famous for tipping. Tipping is almost a kind of culture. The more you tip, the more considerate service you can enjoy. It is rare to see people as generous as Jiang Mingliang. The two waiters are very happy Thank you very much, and I sincerely wish the two of you have a good time in Los Angeles.
