378. Counterattack! (6500 words for the moon(2/2)
The starting list of the home team's Eastern Team has begun to be announced.
First of all, center forward, DiBocen Mutombo narrowly defeated Ewing's 850,000 votes with 870,000 votes.
Without O'Neal in the East, Ewing is the most popular center.
Morning 590,000 votes, Rick Schmitz 550,000 votes, Luke Longley 490,000 votes, Campbell 470,000 votes...
Mo Ning's popularity is really not good, and the decline of the Eastern Conference center is also obvious. Campbell can get 470,000 votes, and the All-Star starting center is a pure defensive player.
Next is the striker, Grant Hill was elected as the All-Star starter with a high vote of 1.63 million, Duncan was the second with 1.13 million votes, and the two were selected together.
The third one is Sean Kemp with 770,000 votes...
He can't avoid super rookies, stay in the West or go to the East, but never gets selected as the All-Star starter again, and Camp is really miserable.
When we arrived at the Eastern Conference defender, like the Western Conference forward, we announced the second place first and posted the votes of the defender except the first.
Allen Iverson narrowly defeated Tim Hardaway with 1.07 million votes and was selected as the All-Star starter for two consecutive years!
Now only Zhang Hao and Jordan's votes have not been announced yet. Although they did not say that the last two places were the two of them, no one would have a third name.
Fortunately, the NBA vice president was not surnamed Hong. Although the suspense was left to the end, it began to be announced immediately.
"Friends in front of the TV, Zhang, who won the first place in the Western Conference forward, won 1.910,358 votes! Michael Jordan, who won the first place in the Eastern Conference defender, won 1.891,258 votes!"
Emma, it's really the ticket king!
Zhang Hao and his teammates were all shocked!
"Special signing player Zhang Hao won the 1998 New York All-Star Weekend Ticket King, congratulations to the host on receiving a 10-day life span reward."
"Special signing player Zhang Hao was selected for the 1998 New York All-Star starting lineup. Congratulations to the host for receiving a 60-day life span."
"The remaining life span is 1387 days, and the available life span is 1386 days..."
The lead is 20,000 votes and gets an extra 10-day life span reward... It's okay, it's better than not.
Although some people speculated that Zhang Hao surpassed Jordan when he was discussing it just now, no one actually had real expectations.
In mid-January, Jordan had a clear lead.
Moreover, in mid-to-late January, Jordan's performance was so good that he led the team with his own strength, as if a god came to earth, and strongly brought the Bulls who had lost Pippen to the No. 1 Group in the Eastern Conference. Currently, he is in the third place, and Jordan's position as the No. 1 player in the league is as stable as Mount Tai...
Although Zhang Hao has performed well during this period, there is obviously a little gap compared to Jordan. From Jordan's way to second place in the MVP forecast list, it can be seen that Zhang Hao has dropped from second place in the MVP forecast list in November to sixth place.
At this time, the host of CNY Sports Channel of CNY teased: "Aix sent his teammates to the car, and he increased a lot of tickets..."
Zhang Hao said this, and it seemed that there was a little reason... I didn't expect that if I gave a car, there would be such a good thing!
...
The three domestic media, including the National Taiwan Sports Channel and International Channel, Guangdong Sports, and Xinhua News Agency, have arrived in the United States two days ago. The first stop is Chicago, waiting for the All-Star Starter List to be announced.
At 1 pm, Zhang Hao accepted interviews from three domestic media, but it was not long, and each media only had 5 to 10 minutes.
The main thing is to thank the country, the fans, and also talk about Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming. The better Zhang Hao performed, the higher the attention the two domestic players who came to study in the United States received and the higher the expectations they had endured.
17-year-old Yao Ming is 2.2 meters tall, and domestic media really linked him with Lithuanian super center Sabonis...
After today's All-Star start-up was announced, NBA Vice President Stu Jackson also announced the comprehensive event day list and the All-Star rookie confrontation list.
On this year's comprehensive event day, there was no dunk contest, and the highlights were reduced by 80%. Some of them, the Lakers, accepted the invitation from the league to participate in the three-point contest - Piakowski and Fisher.
In terms of the rookie roster, what Zhang Hao noticed was that Duncan informed the league early to withdraw from the rookie competition.
This reminded Zhang Hao of the words Duncan asked in an interview after the regular season ended in April last year - "Am I going to play in Vancouver?"
The last league last season was the Grizzlies, and the draft lottery has not even been held yet.
This time it was almost the same. Before the All-Star starter list was announced, Duncan withdrew from the rookie competition early and had absolute confidence in being selected for the All-Star.
At noon, the head coaches of each team had voted on the All-Star substitute list to the staff sent by the league. On February 3, the second day of the last game day before the All-Star weekend, the All-Star substitute list will be announced.
This time is very compact, more compact than in previous years.
This year, due to the high pressure of labor-management negotiations, the alliance is very busy and a lot of time has been compressed.
There are many things involved, such as preparing for a shutdown. Some teams without their own arena, such as the Lakers, have to negotiate the situation where the new season may be shut down or even cancelled, but they have to prepare to resume the game at any time. This requires good communication.
Take the Lakers as an example. There are many people who want to rent the Great Western Forum Arena, which is a very popular stadium.
Obviously, the bosses of each team are ready to stop.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, at the Lakers team meeting, Zhang Hao started another job as a coach that he accidentally took away...

On February 2, the last game day before the All-Star Weekend is here.
Today, the league has arranged a total of 5 games, of which 4 are popular games set by the league.
The 5 games are the Suns playing the Pistons, the Knicks playing the Heat, the Spurs playing the Rockets, the Mavericks playing the Hornets, and the Lakers playing the Bulls.
But on this day, other competitions are no longer popular.
There is only one game - the peak showdown between the Lakers and the Bulls!
In the middle of this season, two teams won more than 5 consecutive games, namely the Lakers and the Bulls, and both teams soared to 10 consecutive games!
After the NFL Super Bowl on January 25, the Denver Broncos dominated the North American sports news. Only two teams in the NBA can make headlines or popular news in major sports newspapers, that is, the Lakers and Bulls games.
With the announcement of the NBA All-Star debut, the NFL season's remaining heat has officially come to an end. Today's five games have 4 live broadcasts across the United States, which is the last game day for the NBA's All-Star weekend after mid-season.
But in the end, it became the peak match between the Lakers and the Bulls. The two teams fought for the last time this season, both of which were in a 10-game winning streak. Fans regard this game as a showdown between the strongest team in the true sense.
Zhang Hao made a strong comeback and defeated Jordan to win the All-Star Ticket King, which added additional highlights to this game.
In addition to the game itself, a retired player has become the object of hot discussion among the media and fans today - Charles Barkley.
Barkley had three previous games as a guest to participate in the commentary, two commentary Lakers games and one commentary Bulls games.
The number one Hao Chui is already famous!
Yesterday, T.N.T Sports announced that it would sign with Barkley until the end of this season. Since Barkley still has to return to Southern California to continue his studies, he paid according to the commentary game and was mainly responsible for commenting on the Lakers or Bulls games.
Recently, Barkley was scolded by Jordan fans, but he was also regarded as a male god by Lakers fans...
Step on one hand and hold one hand. Barkley is the one who praises Zhang Hao. The one who steps on the most is Jordan...
Does a commentator have special news reports?
Yes, Barkley is treated like this. According to media reports, T.N.T will pay Barkley a salary this month from this season, and by the end of the NBA season, it will reach $1.4 million.
Based on the progress of the season... For some reason, Scott Pippen, who is the Spurs' salary of US$2.78 million this season, was mentioned again.
Soon, at 2 pm ET, the Mavericks played the Hornets away and the Knicks played the Heat away, kicking off the last game day of the first half of the season.
In these two games, the Knicks' away game against the Heat was broadcast live by Time Warner Cable Sports.
The Hornets slaughtered the Mavericks by more than 30 points 125 to 93. The Mavericks continued their journey for Olovokandi with satisfaction.
The Knicks played against the Heat. People originally thought the Heat would win, but they didn't expect the Knicks to win!
Tim Hardaway scored 33 points, Morning scored 29 points, both of them scored 62 points, the Heat team scored 82 points, the Knicks scored 28 points from Alan Houston, Larry Johnson scored 18 points, Charles Oakley scored 10 points, Chiles scored 17 points and 5 assists, Chris Mills scored 10 points, and the five scored in double digits, beating the Heat away 90-82.
In an overlooked game, Alan Houston made people notice the existence of him, the second most powerful mid-range shot player this season.
Immediately afterwards, at 4:30 pm Eastern Time, the Suns' away game against the Pistons began.
The Pistons are also very good at collapse, currently 19 wins and 28 losses.
Before the season started, thanks to the 95th Tanhua Show Jerry Starkhouse, people thought that the Pistons finally got the second scoring point they were thinking last season, they would play better, and they also signed Bibby Deller.
Even, when the Pacers had not shown their strength at that time and the Bulls' prospects were unclear, the Pistons were regarded as the strongest team in the East except for the Heat and the Knicks.
Bibby Deller averaged 15 points and 7.6 rebounds per game in 95-96. Last season, he failed to win the Bulls last season. He joined the Pistons for 15 million US dollars in three years and gave the Pistons confidence to send Ratliff, a potential defensive center, and exchange it for Starkhouse.
But as a result, after Starkhouse joined, good guys, Grant Hill and Joe Dumas were both dragged down by this outside teammate. People often see despair in Grant Hill's face - what else can you do when you have a teammate who averages 17 throws per game with a 38% shooting percentage?
Grant Hill averaged 16.6 shots this season, scoring 21 points, 7.6 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 1.8 steals, 0.8 blocks.
Jerry Starkhouse averaged 17.2 shots, 6.5 shots, and 20.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game this season.
When the live broadcast screen switched to Auburn Hill Palace, it seemed that you could smell the strong sense of despair revealed by Grant Hill in the air.
The strength gap between the two teams is quite large. The Suns are fifth in the western part and the Pistons are fifth from the bottom in the eastern part. However, the showdown between Anthony Hardaway and Grant Hill is still interesting.
Just as the Suns and Pistons game started, the warm-up preparations between the Lakers and the Bulls began.
The last game of the first half of the season is expected to break the lowest loss in the half.
Just this matter, Zhang Hao has to fight in this game and cannot lose!
Also, "Hell Training". Since he is so lucky, he will definitely want to get all the rewards! None of those rewards can be missing!
