The God of Basketball

"I am not emotional. I agree with Zach Randolph. Whether it is votes, popularity, or record, the No. 10 player of the Knicks should be the center."

Paul Pierce's remarks are eye-popping.

Boston obviously fought with the Knicks before, endlessly.

Why did he suddenly turn to Li Zhen?

This has to start from 2003. At that time, LeBron James landed in the NBA with the name of the Chosen Son, and his reputation instantly overwhelmed many popular players, including Pierce, who had just played a twin star with Anthony Walker in Boston.

Pierce had a bad mouth at that time, and he didn't just sneer at the media, saying that the Chosen One didn't live up to his name. During the fight, he spat trash talk from beginning to end, and even spat on the Cleveland bench.

The bridge between the two small forwards has been formed since then.

Up to now, the two still do not speak.

Therefore, they are also enemies. Paul Pierce makes sense either way.

Moreover, he knew that James would definitely not be convinced, so why not give him more firewood.

Let him hate Li Zhen more and more, use Cleveland to play the New York Knicks, the Boston Celtics reap the benefits, why not do it.

After James heard what Pierce said, he was naturally very upset.

Li Zhen was calm. He knew that Pierce was trying to fight against the Knicks on purpose.

However, he didn't take it seriously at all.

He even felt that Paul Pierce was trying to increase his reputation. With his endorsement, the discussion became more and more heated.

The higher the popularity, the easier it is to leave an impression in the minds of the general public: Li Zhen can rival the superstars of the same level as LeBron James.

Once this impression is formed, Li Zhen's status in the world will be established.

It's just that LeBron James was forced to be tied up by Pierce, which promoted Li Zhen's status.

The LeBron James camp is not sitting still, either.

They quickly got wind of it through some commentators.

All of a sudden, many media have similar public opinion: It doesn't matter where you stand, what matters is the ability to compete. Only the real competition ability is worthy of respect, and these false names are just children's tricks.

These voices all show that LeBron James will take charge of the game in the All-Star Game, and even play earth-shattering statistics.

Only in this way can he win a complete victory from this turmoil.

It's just that this season's All-Star Game is no longer last year's All-Star Game.

Last year, Li Zhen entered the All-Star for the first time and was quite excluded.

This year, he made a comeback and not only put Zach Randolph into the starting list. It also brought the entire coaching team headed by Isiah Thomas: this is the benefit of the first place in the regular season.

It is impossible for LeBron James to throw Li Zhen to the bench like last year.

Even, if the Knicks are more decisive, it is not impossible for him to be thrown to the bench.

After all, Isiah Thomas was a scumbag when he was young. When he was a player, he dared to isolate the greatest No. 23 in history. As a coach, wouldn't he dare to throw the second greatest No. 23 in history to the bench? ?

This is also the reason why public opinion has been hotly debated. The James team was worried that the Knicks would wear him with small shoes, so he first vaccinated.

However, he was a villain in vain.

Isiah Thomas is simply indifferent to this.

He is now doing his best to enjoy the feeling of reaching the pinnacle of his life. Throughout the All-Star Weekend, he was either pretending to be aggressive, or he was on the road to pretending to be aggressive.

He explained almost all the interviews with major media except ESPN, talking about his team management methods and his tactical thinking on how to quickly transform the team into a super team.

He even began to clean up his previous behavior.

"I've had a lot of people slamming my operations for the past two years, saying I signed a lot of crap, saying I screwed up New York."

"But, you know, the biggest difference between a great operator and an average operator is that there is no trace. Building a team is like playing pinball in my eyes. You think I am throwing randomly at first. But As long as I hit a key one, you will see a crazy offset... a series of chemical reactions, directly upgrade!"

Isiah Thomas is always full of emotion when he speaks.

Even the first black candidate running for office.

He gained countless reputations during the All-Star Weekend, and many media discussed whether Isiah Thomas could be elected as the best head coach, and, in the nominations for the best general manager, he was second only to the Celtics. Man's Danny Angie.

After all, Danny Ainge formed a super Big Three combination.

However, James Dolan, the Knicks owner who followed Isiah to New Orleans, said indignantly: "In my heart, Isiah is the best. Danny Ainge can't show his strength at all by doing that kind of big deal." Ability, that is nothing more than a well-known result."

"However, Isaiah's operation of filling the lineup with role players and seamlessly connecting the tactical system through small patchwork is the strongest. The simplest is the most difficult!!"

In the eyes of reporters, James Dolan is like the number one fan of Isiah Thomas.

This has led many to wonder why the relationship between the owner and the manager is so close.

But then again.

What he said did make sense. Although Isiah Thomas didn't make a big deal, those two small deals were indeed a stroke of genius, and the Knicks completely secured the first place in the record.

Therefore, when the reporter asked Thomas straightforwardly before the game: "Will LeBron's playing time be suppressed in the game because of the dispute between Bruce and LeBron James?"

Smiling Assassin responded speechlessly: "Do you think I'm the kind of head coach who puts the All-Star Game at the top?"

"The battle between Bruce and James has just begun, and there will be a long time to verify this matter in the future."

"So, if LeBron wants to play all the time, I will agree."

"Of course, I will never let Bruce play the whole court."

Isiah Thomas said so.

Invisibly, he raised his style again.

What a pretentious little cutie.

What the whole world didn't expect was that LeBron James' agent Goodwin responded quickly.

"Then please let LBJ play the whole court!"

"LeBron has long wanted to prove his unlimited physical ability to the world, not to mention, I believe fans all over the world want to see LeBron's outstanding performance on the court. No one is more suitable for the atmosphere of the All-Star Game than LeBron!"

Forehead…….

The Knicks were in an uproar.

Isaiah originally wanted to pretend to be aggressive, but he didn't expect LeBron to go straight up.
