Emperor Yi is invincible

Chapter 302 Invite Dayao to Dinner

The next day is April 2th.

At noon, the league notified all those participating in the All-Star Game to accept "individual interviews"!
It is said that it is an individual interview, but in fact it is all in one place, and then each person will give you a table, and the reporters can gather around the table of the person they are interested in or want to interview.

Of course, there is naturally a "difference between closeness and closeness".

There are naturally more reporters around the well-known ones, while less famous ones are naturally less.

Curry had complained before that none of them had as many reporters around LeBron alone.

Oh, it's a sad story
However, this year is definitely different from usual or future generations.

"Hey, do you think the guy next to Yi will surpass LeBron?"

"Improbable, right? LeBron has built up connections over the years, how can he surpass him so easily? Does Kobe have to wait behind?"

"Yeah, it seems to be a bit difficult?"

Everyone was guessing at the waiting scene, and after a while, they saw the players participating in the All-Star Game coming in from the aisle.

People in twos and threes are looking for their own positions.

Yi Jianlian is the most conspicuous, because there is a circle surrounded by the most domestic reporters, so don't think about it, it must be his position.

But when he came to him, he was startled.

"Why so many people?"

Kobe, who came with Yi Jianlian, also clicked his tongue.

This number is almost more than LeBron, right?

Kobe made a rough judgment, and then looked at LeBron's position on the other side.

The people around there are similar to Yi Jianlian, but there should be a little more than Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian managed to squeeze in. Fortunately, this group of reporters was used to interviews and they were very orderly. They didn't ask questions all at once, but started asking questions in the order of the stations.

"Yi, may I ask what special feeling you have for participating in the All-Star Game for the second time?"

"No, it's all okay, it's about the same as last year?"

"The Masters just ended yesterday. You served as the head coach of the West team. Do you have anything to say about this experience?"

"I can only say that the feeling is amazing, it's completely different from when I played the game myself."

"You still have a three-point contest soon? Does that mean you will have activities every day these days?"

"Yes, the three-point contest is one of my goals, and I will try my best to compete."

"Is there anything you want to say about tomorrow's race? Or do you have any goals?"

"The goal is naturally to get the MVP. I am looking forward to the second consecutive MVP. That feeling must be amazing."

"Can you tell us about the Mavericks' goals for the regular season?"

"The goal of the regular season? It must be to enter the playoffs!"

".What about the goals for the playoffs?"

"Okay, next question please."

"."

Generally speaking, such interviews generally do not ask too harsh questions, so under Yi Jianlian's "paid neglect", the interview process is quite harmonious.

There are still more people around LeBron, followed by Yi Jianlian, not much difference, followed by Kobe, or Howard, and Wade.

The influence these people have with fans and the media is enormous.

After the interview, everyone put on their team uniforms and started training.

This is an open practice just like the one at rookie game yesterday.

It can be regarded as giving the media reporters a look at their current state.

After the training, at three o'clock in the afternoon, an all-star game of the NAB Development League was held first.

The most people watching this kind of game are actually the coaches or management of each team.

Because there must be more or less talents in it.

Yi Jianlian did not go to the game.

He is training with Curry and a group of people participating in individual events.

The game tonight is the most important thing!
This year's individual events have also changed the rules.

It's called the East-West Rivalry.

Although the champions of each category remained the same, points were counted, and the division with the most points won in the end.

Yi Jianlian didn't understand what it meant after working on it for a long time, so he simply ignored him, anyway, his task was to win the final three-point contest championship.

"Hey Yi, how did you manage to shoot the ball so accurately?"

The three players in this year's Western Conference are Yi Jianlian of the Mavericks, Curry of the Warriors and Ryan Anderson of the Hornets.

Last year's [-]-point contest winner Kevin Love did not participate.

The current three-point contest is the three-point contest before the change, so the full score is 30 points, and there is no all-flower point in the future.

Now there are five shooting points, two symmetrically at the bottom, two symmetrically at a 45-degree angle, and the other at the top of the arc.

There are 5 balls in each shooting spot, 4 balls (orange ball) get 2 point, and the final flower ball (red, blue, white) gets [-] points.

The curd is called a "money ball".

The total score is 30 points.

The league began to restructure in 14, which is next year, and the full score became 34 points.

The game is normally divided into two rounds.Each player has one chance per round.The top three in the first round advance to the final.

The second round is played in the same way as the first round.

In the event of a tie in the finals, extra matches will be played until a ranking is obtained.

But in response to the call, this year's All-Star Game has also made changes.

First, the East and the West will face off, and the winning team will get 40 points.

The two with the highest scores in the East and West will enter the finals to determine the three-point champion.

In fact, the truth has not changed. First, you must win your own team, and then win the opponent. It is actually the same as before.

It's just that it's a little bit more complicated for the purpose of getting points.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was the time when the night lights came on.

Today is individual event night.

The first thing to do is the Shooting Star Contest.

This competition has been canceled in later generations because it is really not interesting.

Then came the skills challenge, which was the world of the defenders.

Well, of course some big men are not ruled out.

Next is the three-point contest, and finally the dunk contest.

Yi Jianlian said that the slam dunk contests in recent years are actually not very good-looking.

Just like an inversely proportional parabola.

The previous years were good, especially the Carter era, and the Nate Robinson era were good.

And the later years were good, too, because of Zach LaVine and Aaron Gordon.

But it's just that I haven't been very good in the past two years, and there are no famous people.

This is certainly not something Yi Jianlian should be concerned about.

He had invited Dayao to have a meal earlier, and the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, so there was naturally a lot to talk about.

Yi Jianlian told him some big and small things that happened in the NBA, and Dayao also told him a lot of domestic things.
