Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 387 Greek Monster
The new round of All-Star votes was announced. James is still the top voter, followed by Curry. The gap between the two is getting bigger and bigger. The third is Durant, the fourth is Westbrook, and the fifth is Harden.

Yuan Qingshan fell out of the starting lineup when the votes were announced in the second round. This is also understandable. After all, there are too many abnormal backcourts in the Western Conference. Curry, Westbrook, Harden, Paul, Thompson, the competition is fierce.

Yuan Qingshan can maintain a normal mind about this matter. Anyway, according to Wharton, at least he can be a substitute.

The frontcourt is not as crowded as the backcourt. Towns ranks behind Durant, Leonard, Green, Anthony Davis and Cousins.

Whiteside is more depressed. If he is in the east, he may still have some hope. In the west, he is basically useless.

The rest of the Lakers can't even get involved. Murray and Brogdon can enter the All-Star rookie game. Yuan Qingshan is more optimistic about Murray. Apart from Simmons, there are no outstanding rookies this year. Murray may even win the MVP.

Every year, the All-Stars are full of excitement and various media gather. Rachel finally received a notice from the company, allowing her to return to China. After three days of rest, she immediately left for New Orleans.

Rachel flew directly from Paris to Los Angeles. It happened that the Lakers did not have a game that day. Yuan Qingshan went to the airport to pick her up at Zijin Villa. The two hid in the room until after nine o'clock in the evening before coming out to look for food.

The old butler asked if he wanted to prepare supper, Yuan Qingshan didn't bother him any more, but took Rachel to the city center and had a romantic candlelight dinner.

Strange to say, both Yuan Qingshan and Raiqiu feel ashamed of each other for the same reason, they cannot be by each other's side.

Yuan Qingshan told Rachel that he should quit his job as a reporter. He is now a star player and can afford it.

Rachel disagreed, being a reporter was her childhood dream, besides, she also enjoyed the feeling of looking for new things everywhere.

Yuan Qingshan knew that if he persuaded her not to listen to her, there was nothing he could do. Maybe after he retired, he could fly with Ruiqiu everywhere.

After dinner, Yuan Qingshan regained his strength. Rachel proposed to go to the movies, but Yuan Qingshan refused, and dragged Rachel back to the villa on the grounds that he wanted to sleep.

As soon as he entered the room, Yuan Qingshan was full of energy immediately, and the two inevitably fought fiercely again.

There was no game on the second day, and the game against the Bucks was one day later. Murray knocked on Yuan Qingshan's door as usual in the morning, but there was no response for a long time.

Murray took out his phone and was about to dial a number when Yuan Qingshan's door creaked open, and a yawning blonde woman appeared in front of Murray.

Murray's expression was the same as Whiteside's at the beginning, he was so nervous that he almost dropped his phone to the ground.

"Yes... sorry, I didn't know you were here."

Rachel rubbed her hair: "Wait a minute, I'll call him."

Murray watched Rachel's seductive body with his eyes and mouth.

After a while, Yuan Qingshan put on his training clothes and came out. Just as he was about to close the door, Rachel's voice came from inside: "I'm leaving for the airport at 9 o'clock. Let's see you at the All-Star."

Yuan Qingshan stood at the door and blew a kiss, then hurried to the training hall with Murray.

Since Kobe retired, very few people can come to practice at four o'clock in the morning. Yuan Qingshan and Murray opened the door, and there was no one there.

"Malcolm didn't come either?" Yuan Qingshan asked, Brogdon was the first to come before.

Murray pushed the golf cart out from the warehouse: "He said yesterday that his ankle was uncomfortable, and he probably needs to check it in the morning."

This is not good news, Yuan Qingshan glanced at the phone, it was only 6 o'clock in the morning, it was a bit early to call now, so he put the phone back, and planned to call Brogdon after 8 o'clock.

According to Yuan Qingshan's arrangement, Murray's training content this morning was three-point shooting. The Lakers have never had a stable three-point shooter. Barnes, according to the coach's request, put more and more energy on defense, and the three-pointer is not very good.

Yuan Qingshan hopes that the team can have a shooter who can shoot three-pointers, so that he can break through and score outside, just like James and Westbrook did.

Otherwise, once he starts to break through now, he can only end it by himself, and occasionally pass it to Towns, provided that the opposite side is not a pestering insider like Chasing Dream Green.

Yuan Qingshan watched last year's finals very seriously. James' lineup with all-round shooting is really good. Although Yuan Qingshan does not have James's abnormal physical fitness, it is good to have a stable shooter around him.

At 8 o'clock, Brogdon still didn't come. Yuan Qingshan dialed the number, and Brogdon answered. His right ankle was really swollen. His wife was contacting the team doctor, and it is estimated that the general result will be available in the afternoon.

Yuan Qingshan asked how he was injured. Brogdon recalled that after a breakthrough in the last game, he landed unstable and twisted. He didn't pay much attention at the time, but after a night, it swelled up.

Yuan Qingshan hung up the phone and told Murray the general situation. Murray prayed that nothing happened to Brogdon. He will be an All-Star in a few days. He should be the starter.

The rest day always passes quickly. In the afternoon, the Lakers fly to Milwaukee. They will play away against the Bucks tomorrow.

Antetokounmpo has been in the limelight recently, but the Bucks' record is not ideal. The playoffs are hopeless, and they are currently counting down.

Yuan Qingshan thought to himself that Kidd's coaching position was in danger with the results of the Bucks.

If the Bucks fire Kidd, it may bring a series of chain reactions.

The entire league knows that Antetokounmpo was brought out by Kidd. If the Bucks management fires Kidd without the consent of Antetokounmpo, it will definitely have an impact on Antetokounmpo. There must be some rebellious emotions.

I don't know if I can catch a loophole and replace Brother Antetokounmpo?
Yuan Qingshan leaned on the seat of the plane, thinking about it, he laughed aloud, and said to himself: I am too bad, it’s nothing more than adding insult to injury!
The plane landed smoothly, and the bus that the Lakers rented in advance was parked outside the airport. The coaching staff and players pedaled one by one. This time, Yuan Qingshan was next to Towns.

"Xiao Shan, I only saw you giggling on the plane, what are you thinking about?" Downs asked with a smile.

"Cough cough." Yuan Qingshan cleared his throat, and then asked in a low voice, "Tell me, how about changing Brother Antetokounmpo to our team?"

Downs:? ? ?
Yuan Qingshan thought he didn't understand who it was, and explained: "Antetokounmpo."

Towns said in surprise: "Are you stupid? He's an All-Star this season. Will the Bucks let him go?"

Yuan Qingshan didn't take it seriously: "If the Bucks want to play badly, what's the use of only one All-Star in the team?"

Downs: "Would Mr. Johnson feel the same way?"

Yuan Qingshan lowered his voice: "Mr. Johnson talked to me the day before yesterday. His goal is not only Paul George, but Brother Antetokounmpo is also on the list."

Downs: "My God, that guy is a monster from Greece."

Yuan Qingshan said: "You think so too! If you want to get Brother Antetokounmpo, you have to beat the Bucks hard tonight. Is it for nothing?"

Downs waved his fist: "Okay, leave it to me!"
