Chapter 1,213 The New Era of NBA!

On February 14th, the first contest between the NBA league team and the SuperSonics, the Rookie Challenge, ended, ultimately ending with the defeat of Yes, the league representative team.

This seems to be a bad start for the league team, and it is indeed a bad start. However, for most players of the league team, the Rookie Challenge is just an appetizer that they have not participated in.

Although losing did mean a bit of a disadvantage, they did not participate in person.

They are all struggles between a group of young guys. To be honest, it is difficult for such a struggle to be involved in the competition between the Alliance team and the SuperSonics.

Unlike the Rookie Challenge, the skills competition starting on February 15th and the All-Star Game on February 16th are the key.

In these two days of competition, the All-Stars from both teams participated and fought one-on-one!

Four games on February 15th.

In the skills challenge, Rondo, James Harden, and Reggie Jackson represented the SuperSonics All-Star team, while Rose, Irving, and Wade represented the All-Star Alliance team.

In the three-point contest, the players representing the SuperSonics All-Star Team are Durant, Leonard, and Leafs, while the players representing the League All-Star Team are Kobe, Nowitzki and Curry.

In the dunk contest, Antetokounmpo, Gobert and Whiteside represented the SuperSonics All-Star team, while Gay, Paul George and thick eyebrows represented the league All-Star team.

In the heads-up competition, the SuperSonics All-Stars are represented by Yee, Durant, Leonard, James Harden and Rondo, while the league All-Stars are represented by Kobe, Curry, Beasley, Anthony and Owen.

These four games plus the All-Star Game are the games where the two teams are completely against each other.

These four games plus the All-Star Game are the games that really make the All-Star players of the two teams angry.

As for the loss in the Rookie Challenge, perhaps the only one who really cares is Kobe.

After all, this is his first game as a head coach.

After the final game, Kobe found that he really didn't have the talent to be a head coach.

Especially after the game, Kobe started to "scream" at Waiters, a young player on his team.

"Why are you so lonely on the court? Where is your passing key? Do you treat your teammates as decorations?! Who did you learn basketball from before?!"

"Boss, didn't I learn this from you?"

"..."

Seeing Dion Waiters' pitiful answer, Kobe opened his mouth wide for a moment, looking stunned.

At this moment, he finally understood the greatness of Phil Jackson.

Zen Master.

After taking him for so many years, he was still able to practice Zen.

And after he led Waiters for one game, he couldn't calm down anymore.

For a time, Kobe's dream of flexing his muscles as a coach suddenly cooled down.

Kobe's first coaching experience was a bit "tragic", but it created a lot of jokes for fans around the world.

Among them, Kobe's response to Waiters' hair dryer and Waiters' weak response immediately shot to the top of YouTube views after the game.

This is not to mention the friendly "eye contact" between Kobe and O'Neal in this game.

Of course, his first coaching experience turned him into a comedian like Ye Si, which made Kobe quite helpless.

He is serious, really serious!

After a night of rest with a somewhat depressed mood, on February 15th, after the Rookie Challenge on February 14th had a very good start, the popularity of the NBA All-Star Weekend continued to rise.

In the morning, the Seattle SuperSonics All-Stars, led by Yeas, held a series of community activities in Seattle. This time the All-Stars were at the Seattle SuperSonics home game.

In addition, all members of the Seattle SuperSonics have entered the All-Star Game. It can be said that the atmosphere of this year's All-Star Weekend is definitely the most enthusiastic.

After the community activities and some business activities in the morning.

In the afternoon, at one o'clock, Yes took the SuperSonics All-Star team and Kobe took the league's All-Star team to participate in the team's joint training and interview.

For the league's All-Star team, joint training is very important. Most of their players are from different teams. The running-in between them is very important, so it is conducted in a closed manner.

The Seattle SuperSonics don't have to pay so much attention to it. After all, everyone is on the same team.

Tactics and coordination will not be any problem at all.

"This training is the first training session we have worked together. Of course there is no problem with our running-in. Excellent players can always have an immediate chemical reaction with excellent players. Our integration speed is beyond our own imagination."

After the closed training session, Kobe had a happy expression on his face.

Not only Kobe, but the expressions on the faces of players from other league teams such as James, Anthony, Wade, etc. are also very good.

It can be seen that they get along really well.

Break-in is very important for the All-Star players of the league team.

All fools know that compared to the SuperSonics All-Star team, the hard power of the league team that gathers the best of the entire league is definitely stronger.

And much stronger.

The reason why the SuperSonics can compete with league teams is because the SuperSonics have the first player in NBA history, Ye Si, and the SuperSonics are a more tacit understanding of the whole.

If the alliance team practices well together and the SuperSonics' tacit understanding advantage is gone, then the alliance team that is completely overwhelmed will naturally have a greater chance of winning.

Without a tacit advantage, if the Sonics want to win, they can only rely on Yes' superhuman strength to gain an advantage. But can Yes's advantages support the Sonics in winning?

This is very difficult to say.

So after Kobe and the league's All-Stars said that the team's run-in was amazing, the major betting companies instantly adjusted the odds for the All-Star Game.

Obviously, the gambling companies will not just listen. In this closed training session, these gambling companies must have channels to get the actual internal situation.

Before the run-in training, most of the players on the league's All-Star team had a somewhat solemn expression on their faces. After the joint training, everyone's expressions became more relaxed.

Maybe among all the league all-star players interviewed, James still has a solemn look on his face, right?

Of course, it's not because of the problem of running-in.

It's because of the interview issue.

This time the All-Star Weekend attracted a large number of reporters from all over the world.

For All-Star players, they will compete with each other for their popularity during interviews and the number of reporters surrounding them.

Obviously, the tall James could tell at a glance that there were more reporters surrounding Kobe than him, and many more!

Even more than just Kobe, Curry was surrounded by more reporters than him.

The number of reporters around him is only the third level, similar to that of Yao Ming and Beasley.

This is uncomfortable.

You know, during last year's All-Star season, he only had fewer players than Kobe.

And because he is not on the same team as Kobe, he is the most popular on Team James.

At that time, it was really all stars.

But now, as the captain of the league team, even if he is not as popular as Kobe, he is actually not as popular as Curry!

It can only be said that because of the return of Yes this year, because the whole world thinks that he is a "scumbag" who has betrayed his trust in Yes and always gave up, this has caused his loss of popularity to be somewhat serious.

Of course, there is nothing that can be done about this matter. Regarding Yes, he himself has no intention of making any more excuses.

He even felt that it might really be his fault.

So he actually admitted it.

He has now given up all creation of characters. Anyway, his reputation has been as low as possible because of the excessive things he did to Yes. Even during this training, Dwyane didn't even look at him.

He no longer cares about his personality or not. Even before the All-Star Game, he even removed the King from his Twitter account.

Now, after losing all the false bubbles outside, he can finally return to reality and give everything he has to basketball.

It's good to throw away all the messy things and return to basketball itself.

but……

Looking at the current popularity of Kobe and Curry, James knows that deep down in his heart he is still unwilling.

He still wants to pick up all the popularity and personality he lost.

But now, he can only throw it away, otherwise he will just be the laughing stock of others.

"When I succeed enough, I can always take back everything that belongs to me!"

James thought secretly in his heart.

Compared with the Alliance team, the Beyond team did not have so many comparisons during interviews after training.

Comparisons don't exist, and the Sonics' standing as a team is very solid.

Yes is first, Durant is second, and as for the rest, well, the players at all levels are similar.

In this news interview, there was no competition but tension, especially among Whiteside, Gobert, Reggie Jackson and Ingles.

They were really worried and nervous when there was no reporter around when they were being interviewed by the media.

It has to be said that they still think too much.

There are still a lot of reporters around them. Although not as many as other Sonics players, there are still quite a few.

It can only be said that Ye Si's hard push to them before the All-Star Game was very effective.

They are no longer ‘nobodies’.

Especially Ingalls, looking at the Australian reporters around him, he almost wanted to cry.

When the 2008 Olympic Games ended, he was directly expelled from Australia by Australian media reporters and public opinion.

That reminder of Yes really changed his entire life.

At that time, he even felt that his entire life was over.

But now, he has become the first NBA All-Star player in Australian history.

The ups and downs of life are so dramatic.

Those Australian fans and media reporters who once regarded him as a loser and wanted to expel him from the country have now begun to lick him crazily.

Although he has always been a rather indifferent player, at this moment, he still felt a deep sense of pride and satisfaction deep in his heart.

“My gratitude to Yes comes from the bottom of my soul!”

In fact, this time all Sonics players were selected to the All-Stars, and Ingles is definitely not the only player who expresses gratitude to Yeez from the bottom of his heart.

After all, if it wasn't for Leafs, it wouldn't be the Sonics having this magical, incredible season.

Many people on the Sonics will never make it to the All-Stars in their lifetime.

Therefore, compared with the league team interviews, the SuperSonics All-Star interviews have a completely different style.

Throughout the entire interview, it could be said that gratitude and tears were flying everywhere.

Seeing the incredible situation at the scene, many reporters at the scene were surprised but also very understanding.

"If someone can lead me to achieve such a great achievement, I will die for him!"

"Look at these fourteen Sonics players, what would their lives be like if they didn't meet Yes?"

"It's definitely impossible for Durant to have a chance to challenge the top ten in NBA history!"

"Rondo definitely has no chance of entering the top 20 in NBA history!"

"There is absolutely no way Milicic and Millsap can become the top 60 or even the top 50 players in history!"

"James Harden, Antetokounmpo, Leonard, there is absolutely no way they can become MVPs!"

"Tucker, Nick Collison, Danny Green, Ingles, Reggie Jackson, Gobert, Whiteside, they can't become All-Stars!"

"Who would have thought that this grassroots team that had everything robbed, this group of grassroots players from the fringes of the NBA, could achieve the most invincible results in NBA history under the leadership of Yes?"

"These people's original lives have been changed beyond recognition by Yes, and they have also been changed in a dreamlike way."

For many reporters around them, none of the fourteen Sonics players except Durant are geniuses.

Even a genius like Durant in high school was once the younger brother of Beasley, who was the most favored player in the world.

There are not many talented people like Beasley Oden, but there are many talents like Durant popping up in the United States every year.

Therefore, no matter how successful the Sonics are now, many experts and media are accustomed to regard the Sonics as a grassroots team with "mediocre talent".

Even though the Sonics already have so many All-Stars and so many MVPs, this time there are even fifteen All-Stars at once.

But no one thinks that the SuperSonics are a "fifteen-core" team. Everyone agrees that the Seattle SuperSonics are a "single-core" team.

Even the self-destructive Yehei admits that the SuperSonics are a 'single-core' team.

After Yees and the SuperSonics finished their all-star collective visit, they and the league's All-Star players led by Kobe attended the new NBA President's press conference held by the league for Scottie Pippen at 8 o'clock in the evening on February 15. meeting'.

"Thank you to everyone for supporting me over the years, and I hope you can support Scott and his team as much as you support me. Compared with me, Scott is more flexible, less forceful, and more approachable. I also have a better understanding of basketball, the NBA, and what kind of NBA fans and players want. My thirty years have only been to satisfy the commercial interests of the NBA. Now is a new era for Scott. I hope that Scott can give more in the future. The NBA brings more innovation and needed things to players and fans."

After Scottie Pippen took over David Stern's position as president, NBA players such as Leafs and Kobe Bryant applauded.

The NBA has officially entered a new era.

A new era that begins to work hard to get out of business and no longer pursues commercial limits, but begins to pursue basketball itself...
