Pirates: I am Six Eyes Sukuna, the strongest one

Rick Pidino was confused: "Is this the way you told me to control foul trouble?"

"What should I do if I encounter foul trouble?"

Rick Pidino smiled bitterly: "Just turn the game into garbage time early, right?"

"Han, you really like to surprise me!"

In the last 5 minutes, leading by 21 points, in 1998 when the score in a game was only around 100 points, it shouldn't be too much to classify this as garbage time?

But the Philadelphia 76ers were obviously unwilling to surrender.

Allen Iverson raised his arm on the bench and shouted: "The Celtics no longer have Han Yi, a 21-point lead is nothing!"

On the Celtics side, Rick Pidino said something similar to Iverson:

"Han Yi established a 21-point lead for us, and now he has returned to the locker room. What we have to do is to maintain the victory to the end, otherwise you guys will be laughed out of your mouth by Han Yi!"

...

When Allen Iverson missed the final three-pointer, the Celtics finally defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 106:103 away!

In the five minutes when Han Yi was absent, the Philadelphia 76ers team exerted their strength and played a wave of 23:5 with a hit rate of 80+%, but they were defeated in the end due to lack of time!

The Celtics' players' performance was not as bad as the final score showed. They did try their best in the last few minutes of the game, but when Han Yi could not play, their performance was indeed not like an NBA team.

The Celtics players kept in mind the coach's instructions, compressed the time, reduced mistakes, and heavily concentrated the inside line. Even if they could not score, they tried not to give the 76ers a chance to counterattack directly.

But it was useless!

Without Han Yi, rookie McGrady was double-teamed. The 76ers' twin towers, who were beaten by Han Yi, were domineering in the Celtics' restricted area. In the end, every open position would appear in the hands of Ben Wallace above the free throw line.

So how do you say Wallace should end it?

Rick Pidino couldn't stand it and chose to replace Big Ben, and then the result was more realistic!

When Big Ben left the court, Allen Iverson rode his horse and whipped the Celtics to play seven in and seven out.

If there was 10 more seconds, maybe the Philadelphia 76ers would be the winner!

But if this thing didn't exist in the first place.

"Oh, damn it!"

Iverson looked in the direction of the player's tunnel: "Han Yi is really damned, just a little bit short!"

Allen Iverson: 30 points, 10 assists, 3 steals, 5 turnovers!

Han Yi: 48 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 11 blocks, 5 turnovers!

There is no doubt that if Han Yi hadn't left the court early due to a foul, it would have been easy to get 50+ again.

But Han Yi didn't care. The only thing he cared about was the first NBA confrontation, defeating Allen Iverson!

Han Yi hugged the angry Iverson and said, "It was agreed that you will treat me to the fruit plate tonight!"

Iverson said angrily, "When did I say that? I lost the game and you still asked me to treat you. Do you have any human rights?"

...

The next day, the final vote of the NBA All-Stars was announced!

Western Conference All-Stars:

PG: Gary Payton, SG: Kobe Bryant, SF: Kevin Garnett, PF: Karl Malone, C: Shaquille O'Neal

Reserve All-Stars: Eddie Jones, David Robinson, Nick Van Exel, Vin Baker, Mitch Richmond, Tim Duncan, Jason Kidd

Eastern Conference All-Stars:

PG: Anfernee Hardaway, SG: Michael Jordan, SF: Grant Hill, PF: Shawn Kemp, C: Han Yi

Reserve All-Stars: Glen Rice, Reggie Miller, Dikembe Mutombo, Tim Hardaway, Allen Iverson, Steve Smith.

The biggest winner of the 1998 All-Star Game was the Los Angeles Lakers, who had four players selected for the NBA All-Star Game. The Lakers' backup shooting guard defeated his team's starting big brother with a crushing number of votes and stood on the final All-Star starting stage.

I don't know if there have been similar things in the history of the NBA.

But what surprised everyone the most was not this, but the fact that Han Yi and Duncan, two rookies of this year, were selected for this year's NBA All-Star Game at the same time.

You know, throughout the history of the NBA, the only ones who have achieved this feat before them are Shaquille O'Neal, Grant Hill, and Michael Jordan. Now they are all hot superstars in the NBA league, and JordanDan is already the god of basketball.

Even super-super-super-giants like Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, who led an era, have never done it!

This time, the rookie of the 1997 class not only did it, but also did it as the No. 1 pick and the No. 2 pick at the same time!

What happened to the law that the No. 1 pick and the No. 2 pick must be the same?

However, considering the crazy performance of Han Yi and Duncan in their rookie season, there really shouldn't be any controversy about their entry into the NBA All-Stars.

It's just that you, Han Yi, entered the NBA All-Stars, but isn't it a bit too much to get a starting center with your qualifications?

You know, the East is home to most of the top centers in the NBA, with Mutombo, Ewing, and Mourning all there. Are you suitable as a rookie starter?

Well, even if you are suitable, after all, all the All-Star centers mentioned above have been put on the chopping board by Han Yi this year, and they have been beaten one by one.

But even so, Han Yi broke the All-Star center vote with 980,000 votes, and only ranked behind Michael Jordan by less than 50,000 votes, almost becoming the NBA All-Star vote king this year. Isn't it too much?

Shaquille O'Neal, the recognized No. 1 center in the NBA today, only received 520,000 votes. Han Yi's All-Star debut votes were almost twice as many as O'Neal's?

This made the entire NBA dumbfounded!

"How is that possible? I'm not saying Han Yi doesn't deserve to be an NBA All-Star, but I think he's more suitable to be a substitute. Duncan, who has a better record than him, is only a substitute!"

"Online voting is nonsense. Not only can we Americans vote, but Chinese can vote, too. So you understand, right? There are far more Chinese people than us!"

But in fact, as of November 1997, there were only 300,000 computers in China that could be used to connect to the Internet worldwide, and only 620,000 Internet users. Even if every one of those 620,000 people voted for Han Yi, it would be impossible for them to cast nearly 1 million votes!

Han Yi's main vote bank this year is still in the United States. Compared with Dikembe Mutombo, the second place in the Eastern Conference Center All-Star voting list, Han Yi's performance is too eye-catching!

So, when a bunch of other center fans scolded Han Yi for cheating in votes, Han Yi calmly accepted the 30 ball control rewards from the system and smiled:

"Haha, what are you barking about? The days that will scare you Americans are coming!"

"In two years, just two years, you will understand what the mysterious power from China is!"

But O'Neal didn't have the patience to wait for another two years, and exploded directly:

"Who is Han Yi? Is he worthy of leading me by twice the number of votes?"

"Please remember January 17th, I will completely destroy him on that day!"
