Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

A rat's excrement ruins a pot of soup. Journalists who make harsh remarks are despised by their colleagues. In fact, it is this kind of people who ruin the atmosphere of the journalistic industry.

Who is Ranbir, don’t you know?

Putting aside Ranbir's stepping-stone, if you want to pick on Li Shengli's side, do you still have the slightest bit of professional ethics?

Every word is "targeted" and "malicious". I'm afraid you are a royal reporter sent by the Pistons, here to throw dirty water!

The reporter who asked the question was beaten to pieces, with a constipated face, but he was thinking in his mind... Li Shengli wanted to write some reports to disgust him and make him lose face.

…

The atmosphere for the next questions was obviously much better. Even if some people still wanted to make things difficult, they didn't dare to talk nonsense after seeing the lessons learned from the past. Most of the questions were directed at Li Shengli, and he scored 31 points, the highest score in the audience. Curry was embarrassed.

Shouldn't Curry be the protagonist?

Don’t you have anything to ask me?

Doesn't anyone care about my feelings?

Obviously, the reporter friends were not very good at taking care of other people's feelings, staring at Li Shengli and asking crazy questions. After all, this was a great opportunity, because Li Shengli was never willing to talk nonsense to reporters in the past, but today he seems to have opened up the conversation.

Injury, it is definitely not injured. The reporter knew this without asking, so... from how old you are to growing hair, how old you are to touch the ball, whether you have a girlfriend, when you plan to get married and have children, the reporter talked about everything. , completely wiped out Li Shengli, and it was not until the last few questions that he got back on track.

"Li, as the second pick in this draft, what do you think of the performance of O'Neal, the No. 1 pick?" a beautiful reporter asked, and other reporters also took out their notebooks and listened attentively.

Thinking of O'Neal, this big tease, Li Shengli felt much better and said with a smile: "He performed very well. I think he has hope to lead the Magic out of the embarrassing position of last place in the Eastern Conference and take over our Hornets... third from last!"

Last season's regular season record, the Magic ranked last and the Hornets ranked third. Li Shengli's words made all the reporters laugh. Although the two had not had much contact, the last time they played against the Magic, O'Neal, a natural tease, was surprisingly surprised. Li Shengli wanted to be his substitute, which made Li Shengli speechless, so he couldn't help but tease him.

"Hello Li, the voting for the All-Star Game has begun. O'Neal's votes far exceed yours. Do you think you have hope of being selected for the All-Star Game?" Another reporter asked.

All-star voting has begun?

Li Shengli was stunned when asked.

…

Generally speaking, the All-Star voting opens before the Christmas game, but Li Shengli did not pay attention to this because it is too difficult to be selected for the All-Star game in his rookie season, and so far... only three people have done this.

One is Olajuwon, the great dream of the Rockets, and the other is Magic Johnson of the Lakers. However, both of them were selected for the substitute lineup. They are far inferior to Michael Jordan, who was at the peak of his debut and became the starter in the Eastern Conference in one fell swoop. Although... Isaiah Thomas teamed up with a few old gangsters to form a plan, but this is enough to illustrate the strength.

It is still difficult for Li Shengli and O'Neal to reach the All-Star Game.

Because there is still a gorilla Ewing in the East, unless the two can produce some incredible statistics or a big sensation before the end of the voting, the two of them will at best compete for a substitute. And even if the votes of the two can surpass Ewing, it still involves the issue of who starts and who comes on the bench. Thinking of this... Li Shengli suddenly realized a big problem. It would be fine if he could not surpass Ewing, but if he really wanted to surpass him, he You're not really going to be a substitute for O'Neal, are you?

The All-Stars of this era were selected based on position, with one player in each of the five starting positions and seven on the bench, rather than by front and backcourt.

Therefore, at the center position, there can only be one starter. As for the substitutes... although they are selected by the coaches of each team, the number of votes is also a factor in the selection. After all, the All-Star Game is an exhibition game, and it is still very important to comply with public opinion. You can't just pick seven fringe players who don't have any votes, right? Are the All-Star tickets still on sale?

Based on this, if the two go hand in hand to suppress Ewing, it is likely that one will start and the other will be a substitute.

Can not be done!

It can't be!

Li Shengli shook his head. He really didn't want to see that big joker O'Neal say to him... Look, you still served as my substitute.

…

The competition for the starting center in the Western Conference is not interesting because it is too stable.

The Western Conference has two center superstars, Admiral David Robinson and Dream Olajuwon, making it difficult for others to compete. Among the rookies, there are only second-year Dikembe Mutombo and first-year player Dikembe Mutombo. Mourning can show his face.

As for the competition in the Eastern Conference, it is obviously much fiercer.

Gorilla Ewing dominated the field, and the draft's No. 1 pick O'Neal and No. 2 pick Li Shengli were both at center, and both produced All-Star-level data. This made the center voting in the Eastern Conference full of uncertainty.

The first is Ewing, who has been elected as the starting center in the Eastern Conference for three consecutive terms. However, he has already played for three terms. Who among the fans doesn’t want to see a new face, so when the voting began, Ewing was ranked at the unprecedented No. 1 Second, O'Neal got the temporary first place.

Another thing, Li Shengli didn't even think of... After Laimbeer's incident, his votes skyrocketed, and it seemed that he would soon surpass Ewing, who was in second place, and rank behind O'Neal.

A prophecy?

Li Shengli wants to serve as O'Neal's substitute?

He never wanted to be a substitute for O'Neal, and he never expected that such a ridiculous thing would happen.

…

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this result is reasonable.

People always like the new and dislike the old, and the two top center rookies in the Eastern Conference this year are indeed qualified and have attracted a lot of attention. Therefore, it is not surprising that Ewing did not receive high votes. It makes sense for O'Neal, a local talented player, to compete for the first place.

The only surprising person is Li Shengli.

Why did this foreign player get so many votes?

You know, although the NBA in this era has realized that it wants to develop the overseas fan market, the domestic market is still in its infancy and is not even qualified to vote. Therefore, Li Shengli has reached this point by eating the votes of American fans. This surprised all the major media outlets that had always looked down upon him, and the biggest contributor to this was... Ranbir!

For fans, no matter how incredible a player's statistics are, it is not as exciting as paralyzing Laimbeer, the dirtiest player in the NBA. This time, Li Shengli's revenge for his teammates definitely attracted everyone's attention. It just so happened that this incident coincided with the beginning of the NBA All-Star voting. Crime nemesis Li Shengli became the first choice in the voting during this time period, and a large number of votes poured in.

…

At this time, Ranbir, who was lying on the hospital bed and saw the news and voting rankings, was about to cry without tears.

He was beaten up by Li Shengli for nothing, and he still gave Li Shengli so many votes. This made him feel frustrated and wanted to commit suicide, but thinking of Li Shengli as the culprit, he felt that he had to cheer up.

There is ample time! ?

They would meet again in future games, and he vowed to make Li Shengli pay the price.
