The Pope of Basketball Community

The Wizards got 4 days of rest and waited until Thanksgiving before challenging the Rockets away from home. From the schedule, we can vaguely see David Stern's care for the Wizards and his thoughts.

The president hopes that Jordan can retire with glory, and has now begun planning a farewell ceremony for the All-Star Game. Once there is a farewell ceremony, it will be equivalent to blocking the road for Jordan to compete again next season. We can't hold another emotional event for him next season. A star?

Stern doesn't like Jordan's comeback this time because stars such as Carter and Kobe have already been praised. If Jordan can really defeat them, it will make fans question the strength of the new star, which is not conducive to the promotion of the league. Jordan's loss would also be of no benefit to the league. The god he worked so hard to promote would become a mortal.

Yang Rui joined the Wizards, which made everything more subtle. Stern suddenly discovered that the coach can also become the protagonist of the team. The Raptors are rapidly weakening, while the Wizards are getting stronger. Everyone can see that winning has a lot to do with Yang Rui. Now when people discuss the Wizards, they all think that Yang Rui has the greatest contribution, and Jordan is just an ordinary star.

Yang Rui organized training during the offseason, striving to allow outside players to play a greater role and no longer be regarded as a penalty team by fans. Due to average outside shooting, Yang Rui feels that the Wizards are not as good as the Suns in the 2005 and 2007 seasons. Hornacek plays a particularly critical role on the team, coaching everyone in their shooting.

In life, because Yang Rui increased his investment in "Lost in Translation", the film was shot in a much more sophisticated manner, with a lot of large-scale location shooting added, and the shooting time also took a little longer.

On November 20, Stana Katic successfully completed her filming and returned to Washington to spend Thanksgiving with Yang Rui.

Stana was in a state of excitement, talking about her experiences in Japan and interesting things during the shooting.

When it comes to the price of high-end watermelon, a specialty of Touma Town, Hokkaido, Japan, even celebrities feel a lot of pressure. Stana first opened a watermelon and ate two pieces to calm down the shock.

When it comes to acting, she is full of confidence: "Sofia is very strict. Compared with when I was filming "Resident Evil", I feel that my level has been sublimated. I will definitely become an actor in the future."

It is said that acting in movies is honed over time. If you meet a good script and a director who is willing to shape the actors, and add a little aura and talent, you can basically perform well.

No amount of TV dramas will have this effect, because TV dramas are like online novels or fast food. As long as the actors perform well, the director will usually let them pass, and the audience will enjoy watching it.

Sofia cared about this movie very much, so she had strict requirements on Stana during the filming. In addition, her partner was veteran actor Bill Murray. Being led by a famous actor, it was difficult not to make progress.

"In addition to filming,

Did you do anything else? Have you ever traveled in Japan? Yang Rui asked with a smile.

"Originally I wanted to go play with Anna (Faris), but it's not convenient to travel. You can't imagine how popular I am in Tokyo. Many people ask me for autographs and photos. I have more fans than Bill Murray. , This is incredible." Stana said proudly.

The game is made by the Japanese, with Japanese characters and European and American plots, and Stana is certainly popular.

Yang Rui smiled and said: "I'll tell you good news. Facebook has been tracking and reporting the news of "Lost in Translation" and has also included many photos from the set. This movie has attracted a lot of attention. I think you will win an award after it is released."

"It's hard for a small-budget movie like this to win a prize, right?" Stana said with a smile. Of course she hopes to win.

"Would you like to bet? I bet you can win an award, and the film's reputation will be very good."

"Okay, what's the bet?"

Yang Rui whispered a few words in Stana's ear, and Stana punched him with a red face. "It's settled, you gangster."

Even Yang Rui was not so happy when he led the Wizards to win. He knew he would win the bet and just hoped that the movie would be released as soon as possible. Stana's popularity is much higher than Scarlett in Yang Rui's previous life. It is impossible to change the actress to a famous actor, and the reputation of the movie will actually decline.

After Thanksgiving, Yang Rui led the team to fly to Houston to challenge the Rockets, while Stana flew to Los Angeles to attend the premiere of the new movie "Scream 3" starring Anna Faris.

During the filming in Japan, the two became good friends. After returning, Stana became more lively than before.

This is really red when you are close to red, and dark when you are close to ink. Yang Rui, who has watched the "Scary" series of movies, certainly knows how versatile Anna's character is, and it is a true performance. In his previous life, Anna also found a funny fat man as her husband.

At that time, many people didn't understand why she would find someone who didn't match her image. Later, when that person lost weight and became handsome, he was nicknamed "Star-Lord", and people began to admire her vision.

Never laugh at fat people, because every fat person has potential.

Against the Rockets, the Wizards won again, narrowly defeating them 96-93.

The Rockets did not select Yao Ming, who did not receive much attention in either the United States or China. The core of the team is the combination of Bibby and Mobley. The two are good offensively but not defensively. The forwards Glenn Rice and Eddie Griffin are paired together, and the defense is also flawed. The team's best defender is center Kevin Cato, who is overpaid and incompetent.

The coordination of the Wizards players was terrible. Yang Rui's pre-game tactics were basically in vain. They fought randomly and fought on their own, but they still won in the end.

Jordan was in terrible shape, with only 8 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists. Stoudemire also only had 10 points and 4 rebounds under Cato's defense.

It was Hamilton and Boozer who showed their strength in this game. The former made 12 of 20 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 28 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists; the latter defeated Rockets substitute Maurice Taylor and scored 26 Points and 12 rebounds.

Taylor is also a representative of the league's high salary and low performance. His annual salary is 10 times that of Boozer, but the matchup between the two is one-sided.

Then, the Wizards defeated the Grizzlies in back-to-back away games 104-85, winning ten consecutive games.

This trip to Texas was extremely easy. Grizzlies core guard Baron Davis had surgery to recuperate from an injury and will miss about 20 games. The Grizzlies had the worst start in the Western Conference, with a record of 1 win and 13 losses. The starting outside combination of Brevin Knight and Gordon Kirisek cannot prevent any team's offense.

On November 26, the Wizards were challenged by the Pacers at home and won 94-88, winning 11 consecutive games.

Among the starting five, only Jordan and Stoudemire scored in double figures, while Stoudemire only had 11 points and 5 rebounds.

This time it was Jordan who was having trouble. Facing the defense of his old rival Reggie Miller, he made 10 of 21 shots, 3 of 3 three-pointers, and 6 of 8 free throws. He scored 29 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals.

The Pacers have never met Jordan's team in the playoffs, and no one says that Reggie Miller is Jordan's lifelong enemy. Obviously, Miller's matchup with Jordan is a scoring problem.

If it weren't for Jaylen Rose's comprehensive statistics of 26 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, the Pacers would have surrendered early. Their goal this year is just to make the playoffs. This is related to Isiah Thomas' coaching position. If he doesn't make the playoffs, he will definitely be fired.

On the 29th, the Wizards played the Pacers again in an away game. This time Brad Miller showed off his power, scoring a triple-double of 22 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, driving the team's offense and ending the Wizards' winning streak 100-84.

On the 30th, the Wizards played back-to-back games against the 76ers at home, winning 104-95 and refusing to lose in a row.

In this game, Marshall made 14 of 20 shots, 6 of 10 three-pointers, 4 of 6 free throws, scoring 38 points, 5 rebounds, and no assists.

The Wizards lost only two games in November, with a record of 14 wins and 2 losses, continuing to rank first in the league.
