Chapter 277 All Stars and Spring Festival
Sloan's face is like a dead mother. After losing this game, the Jazz's playoff situation in the Western Conference has become more severe. This is not what I want to see, let alone what Larry Miller wants to see. If the Jazz can't make the playoffs, it will be a fatal blow to the entire Salt Lake City.Damn bull, damn Huaxia.Sloan cursed frantically in his heart, but he couldn't change the result of the game. In this game, he really tried his best, but Stockton, a guy who is soft in every key battle, is too stretched. If he plays as smoothly as Malone, then the Jazz is not without a chance. After all, Malone completely blows up the Bulls inside, this is an indisputable fact.

Sloan was upset when he lost the game, but Tim Floyd who won the game is no different from losing the game, because one game is less than one game, and he will definitely leave next season. Although the salary of the NBA is not as high as that of the NCAA, the exposure and commercialization of the NBA are not what the NCAA has. I really like this league, but this league doesn’t like me.

Nobody understood Tim Floyd's mental monologue. The Bulls' next game was at home against the Sonics, and this game was played a day later.

In addition to the game, it is the day of the All-Star voting, because this year's All-Star will be held on February 2th. This time, the All-Star will be held in Philadelphia. Originally, Philadelphia could host the All-Star in the 10-98 season, but that season was suspended, so the All-Star can only be moved to this season.

Li Lei's current vote count is 200 million, much more than Carter's 140 million and Kobe's 110 million. He is an All-Star starter, but Li Lei is selected as a starter, and host Iverson occupies one, so the competition in the backcourt becomes more intense.At present, there are Jordan, Kidd, McGrady, Pierce, Ray Allen, Baron Davis and others in the backcourt of the Eastern Conference. The competition is really fierce.

However, Carter, like O'Neill, although he has a lot of votes, is definitely unable to participate due to injuries, so the vacated spot has made the competition among the remaining few people more intense.

In addition to Li Lei for the Bulls, Brand was also selected as an All-Star, and he was the starter. He had more than 80 votes, completely crushing Antoine Walker, Raheem and others.Who made his data more beautiful than those two people?

This was the first time Brand was selected as an All-Star in his career. He was very excited. To celebrate, he invited the whole team to a nightclub in Chicago to have a good time.

Li Lei originally wanted to train, but because the other party's hospitality was hard to turn down, Li Lei went anyway.

Although the number of votes will still change, it is not so difficult for the latter to catch up.After all, this is not the era of information explosion like in the previous life. In this era, the Internet is just on the way.Hundreds of thousands, more than 100 million votes are already very impressive in the NBA.

Li Lei’s 200 million, one is from Chicago fans, the other is from the votes of Chinese Americans, and the third is from the votes from UCLA. The three are combined to get the 200 million. If he did not participate in the NCAA at the beginning, but entered the league through other means, then it is basically difficult to get this number of votes.

Li Lei was thinking, sitting on the side, watching his teammates spanking, bored, Brand walked over, there were no Yingyingyanyans by his side, he came alone, holding a glass of ice water in his hand.

"Bruce, I respect you for this glass of water. I can be selected as an All-Star this time. I know that without you, I would definitely not be selected. I will do it. Thank you." Brand watched as Li Lei directly poured the glass of ice water into his stomach, and Li Lei also drank half of the glass of juice in one gulp.

"It's okay, everyone is a teammate. You can be selected as an All-Star because of your strength. If you don't have strength, the fans will not choose you."

Brand nodded. Being selected as an All-Star this time should not increase his personal value too much. At least it will not be a problem to get a big contract in the future because of the honor of being an All-Star.

Brand chatted with Li Lei for a while, and then continued to go to the dance floor. Li Lei felt that it was boring, so he went back to the apartment directly from the nightclub.

When we got to the apartment, the phone rang.
"Hey, Xiaolei, this year's Spring Festival, are you coming back to celebrate the New Year? I'll make you your favorite dumplings."

The call was from his mother, and Li Lei was relieved to hear his mother's voice.

"No, Mom, I have a game that day, or else you and Dad will come to Chicago to celebrate the New Year, Chinatown here is no different from ours."

Going to Chicago for the New Year, the mother on the other end of the phone was a little bit moved. After talking with his father, Li Lei's ears were very sensitive. When he heard his father say that his trip to the Spring Festival was rejected, Li Lei could only laugh. Don't look at his father being strict in front of him.Many people said that the father was afraid of guilt, but Li Lei knew very well that those people were jealous of the relationship between his father and mother. The two of them have been married for so many years and have always been so harmonious. Unlike other couples, it has become a formal marriage after a long time.

"Well, we will leave soon. I hung up. I'm going to tell other people the news and tell them not to come during the Chinese New Year."

Mother Zhao Yixuan hung up the phone after speaking, and Li Lei was also going to bed, after all there was still a regular season to play.

On January 1th, Li Lei came to the United Center in the evening, because the game against the Sonics was about to start, and this game was not very easy for the Bulls.

The Sonics didn't have any big deals this season, but Li Lei knew very well that after this season, the Sonics will usher in a big change in the lineup. Payton will go to Milwaukee, and Ray Allen will come to Seattle. Together with Rashard Lewis and the skier, they will form the famous combination of three sharpshooters.The style of play is gorgeous, but the record has not changed much.

And because of Li Lei, Earl Watson did not participate in the draft this year, which left Payton without a good substitute. This change has caused Payton to suffer greatly. This season, Payton played more than 45 minutes. Many games were won by his hard work, but the Sonics still wanted to trade him.

Payton and George Karl have a deep relationship between mentors and apprentices, and he doesn't like Nate McMillan. This person is an old courtier in Seattle. After playing here for 12 years, he retired and entered the coaching staff to become a coach, but Payton doesn't like him. key.
