From today on is the king

Chapter 1400 1399. The whole team is full of high school students

The Hawks announced the signing of the 2000 No. 15 pick, Stromile Swift and Mark Jackson, two inside players, filling the [-]-man roster.

Those championship teams are blaming the Heat, Grizzlies, Hornets and Sonics again, giving the Eagles a chance to reinforce.

On the other hand, Liu Mang disliked it very much, which made the management of the Eagles feel weird.

This is already a good catch, Swift is okay, just a 28-year-old physical man, Mark Jackson is a veteran center with good experience.

The ability to get Mark Jackson is due to the activeness of the Eagles. They were bought out at noon, and Chip Engelland, who stayed in Atlanta in the afternoon, went to Miami to meet with Mark Jackson. Mark Jackson, who had just experienced a bewildered situation, signed a contract with the Eagles for the remaining half of the season.

This season, due to O'Neal's Westward Journey and Wade's reimbursement, the magic operator has been more cautious in using Stoudemire. In addition, Mark Jackson has become the main insider, averaging 13 points and 6 rebounds per game, both of which are new highs except for his rookie season.

Mark Jackson is really weird. He was a rookie in 97. He only entered the NBA in 2000. He averaged 13+7 per game in his rookie season.

After being reimbursed for his rookie season, Mark Jackson became a homeless man. He is only in his seventh year of career and already on his seventh team.

The management of the Eagles felt inexplicably ashamed because of Liu Mang's disgust, but the other teams felt a little bit threatened.

These two, no matter how bad they are, can give Marion and Kwame Brown a few more minutes of rest.

From last summer to the present, those championship teams and teams that don't want the Eagles to reinforce have tried their best to keep their insiders, and even raised prices for other teams that want to trade insiders. Anyway, they don't give them to the Eagles, just to weaken the Eagles' inside strength.

The two joined the Eagles. In other people's eyes, the Eagles are sure to make money. If you sign them, you can earn a lot of money. If you can't play well, you can just cut them off. But coach Kruger didn't feel much joy when he saw Liu Mang's disgusted expression...

He was very happy when these two transactions were just completed...

……

In the Rookie Challenge on the 16th, the limelight was taken away by the Hawks signing two free agents.

Maybe not a great player, but the Hawks signed them, so that's different.

In the Rookie Challenge, the Blazers' best rookie favorite Brandon Roy led the first-year team to a 144-136 victory over the second-year team. Roy, who scored 33 points and 7 assists, won the MVP of the Rookie Challenge.

The second-year Paul didn't play, and the second-year Deron really wasn't the opponent of the rookie Roy, at least in this kind of competition with high personal ability.

On the 17th, the three-point event, Granger participated in the three-point contest.

As for being invited to participate in the three-point contest, Granger felt that he couldn't hold back his face. In an interview, he said: "I originally wanted to participate in the slam dunk contest. I don't know why it turned into this..."

As for why he said that, it was mainly because he only scored 10 points in the three-point contest...

The Heat's Jason Kapono beat Korver, Fisher, Granger, Wang Zhizhi, and Nowitzki to win the All-Star Three-Point Contest.

The slam dunk contest is still star-studded, and the only one to watch is Dwight Howard, but Howard failed to make it to the finals and was won by Timberwolves small forward Gerald Green.

As for the Shooting Star Challenge, Liu Mang originally planned to continue participating with Bosh. He won the championship last year and will continue to make a dash this year. However, Bosh will be absent for four to six weeks due to injury in mid-January. He will definitely not participate in the All-Star Weekend. Liu Mang also rejected the league's invitation.

The Skills Challenge was the most eye-catching. Kobe, James, and Kidd participated, but none of them made it to the finals and were eliminated in the first round. Mavericks guard Devin Harris won the Skills Challenge.

……

……

Liu Mang, Garnett, and James sat together. Just seeing the three of them sitting there, the media felt a deep sense of embarrassment.

Some media broke the news that James took the initiative to recruit Garnett. Garnett expressed that he wanted to partner with James, but he was unwilling to play in Cleveland.

There are also media reports that before Garnett applied for a trade with the Eagles and was rejected, he excitedly called and told his friends that he was going to play in Atlanta, and finally went to Chicago.

Even without the 1-1 tie between the Eagles and the Bulls this season, and without the various conflicts between the Bulls and the Cavaliers in the same division in the four regular season matches that have already been played, it would have been embarrassing for these three to sit together for an interview.

Howard sat next to the three of them, looking even more embarrassed!
Coincidentally, Howard was also sprayed by Garnett, and Garnett scolded Howard that "being ridden every day" is genetic...

This vicious remark made Howard swung his elbow at that time and was ejected. The Bulls almost lost the game to the Magic. After Howard was sent off, the Bulls finally came back.

There is only one person with a very strange style of painting...

Tracy McGrady, always so different.

The faces of the other four were full of embarrassment, and only Maddie answered the question with a smile...

The All-Star Weekend is always changing. This year's All-Star Game roundtable meeting highlighted the five All-Star starters in the East and West, and wanted to create a topic of confrontation between the East and the West.

Unexpectedly, on the eastern side, they would oppose each other.

Moreover, three of them were targeting the same person...

This man is Garnett...

In fact, the west side is similar. Iverson and Kobe were selected as the All-Star starters together. The two are incompatible, but the Lakers in the west side occupy three starting positions.

The Lakers and Spurs are the favorites for the championship. Although the Nuggets' record is not as good as the top three in the Western Conference, the two guns converge, and the goal must be to win the championship.

The league wanted to create a gimmick of confrontation, but from the very beginning, the All-Star starters on both sides disliked each other...

……

"Ace, how do you play this time?" Seeing that Garnett was being interviewed alone, James asked Liu Mang next to him, and McGrady also came together at this time.

"Let's think about it... let's call Darko and Vince too! Garnett will definitely not play with us. If we win, he will definitely compete with us for the MVP. It doesn't matter if we win or not, the MVP cannot be given to him!" Liu Mang expressed his thoughts.

"That's right!" James and McGrady agreed with Liu Mang's idea.

"However, if they lost to the West, Kobe might win the MVP. Such a result is also very annoying." Liu Wei continued.

"Ace, what do you mean?" James felt a sense of fear that he had felt before...

Back then, when he was a rookie, the things the Eagles did to him...

But now the person who is going to be targeted is wearing the No. 24 jersey. James most wants to beat the person wearing the No. 24 jersey...

Howard watched Liu Mang, McGrady, and James discussing something shoulder to shoulder. Since the three of them were in a nest, Howard couldn't hear what they were talking about, but Howard was very envious when he saw the smirking expressions of the three of them from time to time.

Howard was selected as an All-Star for the first time, and he felt that his teammates were far away from him...

……

……

Five consecutive All-Star starts, counting his rookie year when he was designated by David Stern to replace Carter as an All-Star player, Liu Mang has played in the All-Star Game for six consecutive years since his rookie season.

The All-Star Weekend in Las Vegas has its own characteristics. The biggest feature is that there are many scantily clad girls on the scene, sitting in the expensive front row seats, ready to catch a win.

However, Liu Mang's attention was still on the "black pearl" Beyoncé. The most important thing in Las Vegas was money. They hosted the All-Star Weekend. The popular guest was the popular female singer Beyoncé. According to the procedure, there would be intermissions, intermissions, and performances by several big-name singers. In addition, the sidelines were full of socialites that girls and courtesans wanted to catch.

It’s a mess, it’s about this All-Star Weekend, it’s too chaotic, there have been many shootings in the past few days, Liu Mang stayed in the hotel for the rest of the time except for the necessary outings to participate in the activities, and today’s All-Star Game to avoid accidents.

Schwartz turned down a lot of work, and this aspect is also very important, Las Vegas... It's really too messy.

But when it comes to the game field, the problem is not a big problem. The security in the NBA arena has always been very good.

It's already the sixth All-Star Game, and it's in such a chaotic place, Liu Mang thinks it's better not to show off too much.

At the same time, based on the original intention of being friendly, helping each other and loving each other, Liu Mang is going to let another No. 24 experience it...

Feel the close-in feeling that LeBron James felt back then.

After a series of complicated opening ceremonies, the 2007 Las Vegas All-Star Game kicked off.

The starting lineup of the Eastern All-Star team is: Liu Mang, McGrady, James, Garnett, Howard.

The starting lineup of the Western All-Star team is: Iverson, Kobe, Duncan, Gasol, Yao Ming.

Today, the main offensive power of the East team was unanimously agreed to James.

If Liu Mang or Tracy McGrady want to hit the MVP, Garnett will definitely steal the show. The head coach of the Cavaliers is the head coach of the Eastern Conference All-Star team, and Garnett probably persuaded him when he yelled at him.

But if James, a very popular courtesan, wants to win the MVP, even Garnett is too embarrassed to steal the show. These days, James invited everyone in the Eastern All-Star team except Liu Mang to have a good time.

It was awkward when we were interviewed together on the scene, but it was much better in private, mainly because of face.

Liu Mang didn't go because he was worried about the security here.

The jump ball... The West has no way to compare with the East. The Eastern team got the first chance to attack, and Howard easily won the jump ball from Yao Ming's head.

James received the ball and went straight to a fast break. At the beginning of the game, the West team didn't defend much. James easily scored two points with a dunk.

The Western team is watching, watching who is the Eastern team who wants to win the MVP this year.

The candidate for the Western Conference is very certain. It is Kobe, even Iverson, who is too lazy to compete with Kobe, a guy who burst into competition. After all, it is the first time to play as an All-Star in the Western Conference. He is a newcomer, and Iverson is not as popular as Kobe.

After advancing to the front court, Iverson passed the ball to Gasol, and then went to a 45-degree angle with his hips on his hips, watching others attack.

Kobe saw that James, a young man wearing No. 23, was the main player of the Eastern team, and he immediately became interested.

In yesterday's triathlon, both of them took part in the skills challenge. The two of them were both in the first round. They feel sympathetic and can't help themselves. Today Kobe wants to continue yesterday's duel.

After Gasol received a pass from Iverson, Kobe cut in. Duncan, Yao Ming, and Gasol all had mid-range shots. Kobe felt that he could easily fight back against James by cutting in...

"watt?"

When Kobe squeezed McGrady to the free throw line, he crashed into Garnett's arms!
Kobe wants to go to the left because McGrady's help defense is shrinking, and to the right is James' help defense shrinking, and there is Howard under the basket...

Liu Mang saw Kobe being flanked by the top four high school all-star starters on his side, this scene... so refreshing!
Of course, the high school student who was caught felt very refreshed. Seeing Gasol pass the ball to Duncan, Duncan dribbled in from the baseline, attracted Howard to defend and then passed the ball to the right side of the basket. Yao Ming's alley-oop dunk, Kobe was about to vomit blood!
"Where is this defense? It's obviously aimed at me!" Kobe saw Liu Mang who was going to catch the serve. The only guy who didn't pinch him just now was this guy.

But Kobe always felt that the deepest malice emanated from this guy!

Liu Mang looked at Kobe's "real-black question mark face" when he retreated, and couldn't hold back his smile!

"Absolutely don't laugh, the young master is a professional... But we have five starters and four high school students, why didn't we notice it before?"

As Liu Mang pushed forward, he looked at the group of four high school students who had taken their positions on his side, and felt a very strange feeling.

After Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt, James originally wanted to ask for the ball directly. Liu Mang signaled him to play one, but James didn't object. He ran to the side to help Liu Mang open the space.

Seeing that Liu Mang didn't pass the ball, Kobe immediately pressed out of the three-point line, and his action was very fierce.

Liu Mang turned his body sideways, carried Kobe on his elbow, and said with a light smile, "Kobe, do you know what I discovered?"

"..."

"If you don't answer, you're asking me."

"..."

"Today I discovered the reason for the bad relationship between the two of us..."

"The reason?" Kobe finally responded.

"Yes, I found that I have always been incompatible with you high school students because of my high education level..."
