NBA: The start beat Kobe Bryant in his old age

Chapter 58 Announcement of All-Star votes for the second stage!
Judging from the conversation with Bass Jr. today, Lin Tian knew that he was identified as the absolute core of the team's future.

Although the team has other talented players, I am afraid that these players will be put on the shelves.

After all, they are all too young.

I don't know if Kupchak can trade Jokic this time.

Lin Tian checked other nba news, as he talked, many of them were related to him:
[Lin lore pioneers!The Lakers completed four consecutive victories! 】

[Alternative triple-double!Lead the team to kill the opponent!Where is the Lakers' rookie ceiling? 】

[Lakers VS Trail Blazers, No. 23 rookie Lin made great contributions again! 】

[Don't want the No. [-] pick?The Lakers' record in the past two weeks is second only to the Warriors! 】

[Mingji broke the news that the Lakers are interested in Nikola Jokic, the No. 41 pick of the Nuggets, and are willing to send Jordan Clarkson for this, but they need the Nuggets to catch a first-round pick. 】

Jordan Clarkson averaged more than 10 points in his first season with the Lakers.

Before Lin Tian came to the Lakers this season, Clarkson had actually been a starter.

As a second-round pick, his prospects are actually very optimistic, after all, there are many offensive methods.

Kupchak wants to trade Clarkson for Jokic. If he doesn't want a first-round pick, people may think he is a fool.

So it is not surprising that such a situation occurs, it depends on what the Nuggets think.

If it is later, it will be very difficult to trade Jokic after he slowly plays out.

……

This night, Lin Tian slept very soundly.

When he got up at seven o'clock the next day, he saw the nba announced the votes for the second stage of the All-Stars.

When he saw the number of votes he got, he was shocked!
There are more than 220 million written on it!Fully ahead of the second-ranked Kobe Bryant with 80 votes!

As for James, who ranked third in the All-Star votes, he was behind him by a full 100 million!

Although the number of votes for the third stage has not yet been counted, judging from this situation, Lin Tian can basically lock in this season's All-Star vote champion in advance!
This was beyond Lin Tian's expectation, but it was reasonable.

The base of Chinese fans is the largest among all countries!

At present, there are only two players in the entire Tianchao who are developing in the NBA, which makes everyone naturally become their fans.

Of course, it takes hard work to strike the iron. Lin Tian's mvp-level performance in the last few games is a crucial factor for getting such a right ticket.

Although he only played less than ten games in total, Lin Tian has locked in the All-Star starter in advance.

Even if the league wants to change the rules, it will obviously have to wait until next season.

Lin Tian started to read other news again:
[Nba second stage voting ends!Lakers player Lin is far ahead! 】

[The total number of votes in Lin's second stage exceeded 200 million!He has the potential to become the player with the most All-Star votes in a single season in NBA history! 】

[Lakers player Lin has basically locked in the All-Star starting lineup in advance! 】

[Lin is very likely to become the starter of the All-Star with the fewest appearances in NBA history! 】

[Lin leads Kobe with 80 tickets!Not surprisingly, he will become the All-Star vote king this season! 】

[Smash doubts with practical actions!Lin's recent performance deserves his votes! 】

……

Lin Tian was dazzled by such news.

After checking the news for a while, he quickly got up, took a shower and had breakfast.

The Lakers team training hall, I don’t know if it’s a good record recently, the players are very active, and today’s training came very early.

When they saw Lin Tianlai, everyone, led by Kobe, applauded.

Nick Young took the lead and said: "Hey! Lin! You are the All-Star ticket king this season! You must treat everyone to a meal!"

Others quickly echoed: "Please! Please! Please! Please..."

Even Kobe yelled along.

Lin Tian smiled wryly and raised his hand to signal everyone to stop: "The voting is not over yet, everyone, please don't talk so hard."

Nick Yang curled his lips: "No! It's basically over! Haha!"

Nance Jr. nodded and said, "Anyway, you're not the top voter! It's Kobe too! They belong to our team anyway!"

Kobe's votes actually surpassed James's by a lot.

If Lin Tian hadn't been born out of nowhere, this season's All-Star vote champion would definitely be Kobe.

"We also want to congratulate Kobe, who has received more than 3000 million All-Star votes in his career!"

"Oh oh oh..."

In the crowd, Lin Tian could clearly see that Clarkson's interest was not as high as the others.

Because today there was a trade message related to him, saying that he would be exchanged for a player from the Nuggets.

Such news cannot be groundless, it can only be released by the team.

Getting caught up in trading rumors is indeed a big blow to some players.

This is why the Lakers' trade cannot be rushed.

Only by stabilizing the morale of the army can the record be stabilized.

All the Lakers players, except Lin Tian and Kobe, are unknown, and they are all likely to be traded.

The atmosphere of celebration did not last too long, and they entered the state of training again.

Everyone practiced very hard, because the best lubricant for a team is to win.

After practicing together for an hour, it was finally time to rest for a while. Nick Yang walked to Lin Tian and said, "Lin! Who is our opponent in the next match?"

Lin Tian frowned, Nick Young is really lazy, the assistant coach of the team sent them information about the Spurs yesterday.

He said helplessly, "Spurs."

Nick Young's face changed: "It turned out to be the Spurs? Their current record this season is second only to the Warriors!"

Nance Jr. also came over: "Actually, the Spurs also hope to hit 70 wins this season."

The situation where the west is strong and the east is weak is actually the most obvious this season.

The Cavaliers, currently No. 1 in the Eastern Conference, only have the same number of wins as the third-ranked Thunder in the Western Conference.

It can be said that the records of the Warriors and Spurs have left the rest of the league far behind!

Under the leadership of Popovich, the outside world believes that they may be the only team that can beat the Warriors this season.

This kind of statement can actually stand up to scrutiny, and only the Spurs' style of play restricts the Warriors a bit.

Of course, also because the Spurs have a Popovich.

Nick Young grinned and said, "Tsk tsk! I'm already looking forward to your line-up with Leonard of the Spurs! He was the dpoy of last season!"

"Really?" Lin Tiandao, "I'm looking forward to it too."

Nance Jr. patted him on the shoulder: "Leonard was not only the dpoy of last season, but also the steal leader last season. You can ask for more blessings."

Lin Tian pouted and said nothing.
