hall of fame small forward

Chapter 176

Totoro's ability to score more than 20 surprised many fans, because he didn't actually take many shots. Logically speaking, it is impossible to have such a high score.

But when they saw on the big screen that Totoro made 7 of 6 two-pointers, 5 of 4 three-pointers, 11 of 1 free throws, and a total of more than 280 in the three field goals, these fans and commentators except Worship what else can I say?
In the beginning of the fourth quarter, it was a battle between the star substitutes. In recent years, the slogan that the west is strong and the east is weak is really not casual. The All-Star substitutes in the West may be able to play as starters in the Eastern team, but the Eastern stars Substitute players coming to the Western Conference lineup may not even make it to the All-Stars. The Western Conference once again took advantage of the depth of the lineup and recovered a lot of the huge point difference.

But after all, there is only time left for the last quarter, and the number of big and small cats in the East is not paper. Before all the main players played the decisive battle, the East still firmly kept the point difference within 10 points, and did not let the Those bastards in the west are more aggressive.

In the final battle lineup, Duncan, Nowitzki, Anthony, Kobe and Iverson were sent in the West, while Howard, Garnett, James, Wade and Kidd were sent in the East.

The Chinese and Asian fans in front of the TV were suddenly angry.

Logically speaking, at the most critical moment of the game, the starting main players will definitely be brought on the field, and Rivers in the East also did the same, but what the hell is the West?

Only two Chinese players [Rockets] were replaced by Mayfair Jackson. Isn't this blatant discrimination? Do you dare to insult people in a fair manner?

Chinchilla was also angry off the court. Although he calmed down from the beginning and was not prepared to compete for the All-Star, but when the opportunity was right in front of him, who wouldn't want to fight for it?
But Zen Master, a dead old man, didn't even give himself a chance, and at the most critical moment, let Anthony, who had a lower number of votes than himself, play. Where did he put his face?Does his former All-Star fans vote for him mean anything?

Yao Ming is okay, maybe this is the so-called eccentricity. From his first start in 2002 to the All-Star, to the number one vote in the past few years, he has never appeared at the most critical moment. Although the media asked When he was feeling, he always said that he was not suitable for an All-Star, and wanted to give this opportunity to others, but who knew that this was his truth?Maybe it's just a helpless act of being forced to accept reality?
Not to mention the anger of Totoro and the fans, the All-Stars on the court can be considered to have entered the final climax. Everyone showed their prowess on the court and wanted to help the team win.

The Flash's breakthrough around the ball, Kobe's backward jumper, Iverson's butterfly piercing, Kidd's man to the ball, Howard's alley-oop, Nowitzki's golden rooster independence, Garnett's low singles, Duncan's High board, Anthony's pull-up jumper, LeBron's one-stop touchdown!

The score was also rising steadily. The neutral fans said that they enjoyed watching it, but after 5 minutes passed, the score on the court was still 10 points apart, and the situation had not changed at all.

Zen Master frowned deeply off the court, he could see that although his team's offense was successful, but the relative defense was completely lost. Don't play tricks, what kind of ass is this for them who are chasing points now?
However, how can we increase the team's defensive strength without affecting the offense?
Grandpa KFC looked around the bench from the corner of his eyes, and finally locked his eyes on Totoro, who was covering half of his face with a towel and was lost in thought.

"My Neighbor Totoro, get ready, I'll replace you later."

"I'm sorry, but I refuse. I twisted the front of my foot, and now I need to rest. You'd better not put me on it."

To Mayfair Jackson's words, Totoro didn't even turn his face away.

"."

The other West All-Star substitute players clearly saw the corner of Zen Master's mouth twitch.

Disobedience to the coach's arrangement in a basketball game is a big taboo, because maybe when you anger the coach, he will keep you off the court and never let you play.

However, since this is a makeshift team, Totoro is not that afraid of Mayfair Jackson, and even if they are a team, Totoro does not think that the team will give up itself for Zen Master. A star who can bring hundreds of millions of income to the team, can he be a Zen master?

In the end, Totoro still used the excuse that he was injured. What can his Zen master do to him?Fraudulent injuries are shameless but useful. Mayfair Jackson can't let him play desperately for an All-Star, right?

"When did you get hurt?"

It's just that the Zen master is not a fool. He was alive and kicking on the field just now.
"When you replaced me, I accidentally twisted my ankle when I walked down, and now I feel a little pain."

Totoro opened his eyes and said calmly, um, I can twist while walking, it's true, I'm really sprained now.

"Did your mother explode?"

Although the Zen master really wanted to greet him like this, his years of professionalism made him endure it.

"Do you want to let the team doctor look at it for you?"

"Okay, but sprains are always so subtle. If the team doctor can't see anything, I can't help it."

My Neighbor Totoro explained without blushing. He even forcibly explained the inevitable consequences in advance. What else could Mayfair Jackson say?You can't take him to the hospital to take a film now, can you?

Everyone can see that this is a manifestation of Totoro's anger. He is protesting you with practical actions. Why didn't you send Lao Tzu to play in the first place? It's just that you can see it. Those Western All-Star substitutes off the court are still pretty Admire.

Being able to confront the historical coach Mayfair Jackson, who is well-known in the United States, and refuse to perform on the All-Star stage without hesitation is not something that ordinary people can make up their minds to do.

Who knows what the future holds for his career?Maybe this is their last chance to perform on the All-Star stage, but people treat them like dirt, and they don't go if they don't want to. It's really capricious.

Dayao watched silently from the side, and did not come forward to dissuade Totoro.

He also felt in his heart that Totoro was acting on his temper, but the little giant felt that there was nothing wrong with being self-willed once in a while.

Totoro's commercial status is there, and he is stronger than himself. Yao Ming has the support of all Chinese fans behind him, and Totoro has the support of all Asian fans behind him.

Even if he is injured, Totoro may be able to lie down and be the All-Star starter on the legs of the fans. It is a rare opportunity for others, but it is a daily task for Totoro. He does not need to look at this All-Star at all.

In the last 2 minutes of the game, Rivers suddenly replaced Wade with Ray Allen. As a result, this substitution achieved a miraculous effect. Ray Allen and James hit consecutive three-pointers, and the score on the court was suddenly opened. The situation of the All-Stars is precarious, and they are only one breath away from failure.

"After the timeout, you play for me, I need you to help us strengthen our defense!"

Mayfair Jackson had no choice but to call a timeout, and Kobe pointed at Totoro and ordered.

Volute has already scored 39 points on the field. If the Western Conference can finally win the game, the All-Star MVP will definitely not be able to escape his grasp. But if the Western Conference loses the game, it will be a tragedy, Xiaofei Xia is equal to 48 minutes of strength in vain, and you can't get a hair.

It's just that Kobe's words made Anthony on the side very angry. What does he mean by this?Could it be that in a disguised form, I am not as good as that rookie?
But before Anthony showed his anger, a scene that surprised Kobe even more happened.

Totoro actually put on a towel and stood up from the bench, and walked towards the locker room passage without hesitation, and the fans in the arena were in an uproar.

What happened to Totoro?hurt?There was still a conflict with Kobe, after all, Kobe pointed at Totoro just now.

Peter Pan and Zen Master practiced to suppress rookies?

Totoro left angrily to express his protest that he could not play at the last moment?

The mystery of Totoro's injury?

Western star infighting?

All of a sudden, those sports reporters could think of too much material. After all, Totoro performed so perfectly today, but he was treated extremely unfairly.

After reacting, Kobe ran over and grabbed Totoro's jersey, and the reporters on the scene suddenly had an orgasm again!
"What do you mean kid?"

"I don't like you, I don't want to compete with you, that's all I mean, can you take your hand now?"

My Neighbor Totoro said blankly, this really pissed Peter Pan off, he has been in the alliance for so many years, who wouldn't give him some face when he ran there?

Seeing that the old man was about to get elbowed, the stars of the Western Conference rushed up to hug Kobe. If there was a real fight during the All-Star Weekend, and it was played by teammates from the same team, the league might cancel the All-Star Weekend next year.

"You can do it, kid, remember what you said, I can make you unable to survive in this alliance, believe it or not?"

"Hehe, do you think the NBA is great? How much income can you bring to the league every year? You can only have American fans and a small number of foreign fans. I have fans from all over Asia."

Seeing Kobe's showdown, Totoro is not polite, tearing the last bit of camouflage between the two.

"Can you promote the NBA? I can do it. You can unite with other cronies to make it difficult for me in the league, but I can also turn the European League into a second NBA. Can you do it?"

Every word of Totoro's words was heartbreaking. After listening to it, Kobe's face was no longer dark, but was about to turn pale with anger.

There was no more suspense in the game. The East won 168:150. James won the mvp with 34 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists. Won the mvp.

"He is an unreasonable egomaniac. He thinks he is something, but he is nothing. He will not be able to survive in the NBA, because with me, he will always be a loser!"

Facing the media, Peter Pan rants that others don't know the whole story, but just seeing Kobe's attitude, he knows that the matter must be serious.

"I don't want to say more, the league will investigate this matter, such as why Yao Ming and I were pressed on the bench at the last moment and replaced by Anthony and Stoudemire, why Kobe pointed at me I rant and attack me, the league will give me a satisfactory answer, if the league can't do it, I won't play in this league, I will choose to retire in the NBA, and then go to the European league."

Totoro is even worse, he keeps silent on the surface, but in fact he has already made his words clear, and even issued an ultimatum.

At this moment, the Rockets also expressed that they would advance and retreat with Totoro. If the league's handling of this matter was unfair, they would stop playing.

"He's too arrogant. He's just a first-year rookie. He should learn to respect him, just like learning from his predecessor Yao."

"He is a rotten thing. He kicked me out of the team, relying on his own skin color and those stupid fans. I hate him. He is the most hated person in my league!"

Naturally, many black players are supporting Kobe. Of course, the actual situation is not all one-sided. Some stars who have animosity with the volute are on the side of Totoro, such as the Shaq Shaquille O'Neal.

"Totoro did a beautiful job. There's no question he's been treated unfairly. Even though he's a rookie, he's also an All-Star starter in the Western Conference. He's shooting above 90 before he's off the court. He's Got 20+5+5+ stats, I don't know why he didn't play with the rest of the starters, he caused us a lot of trouble!"

"And Kobe is undoubtedly the self-righteous, selfish Kobe we know. He always thinks he can control everything, but in fact, not many people here will buy his order, at least I, Uncle Shaq, will not!"

The alliance held another emergency meeting at the New York headquarters, and they knew the cause of the matter best.

But being clear doesn’t mean it’s easy to deal with!

Who would have thought that so many moths would break out in an originally happy All-Star Weekend, and they couldn't ban other people's games because of this, right?

Mayfair Jackson can't control the scale well, Kobe is too arrogant, and Totoro's temper is really stubborn. Strictly speaking, all three of them have problems in this matter. Who can be punished?
Because of the ferment of this matter, the alliance has received numerous complaint letters recently, and the sponsors in Asia have also called. If Totoro withdraws from the alliance, they will also interrupt the TV broadcast contract and sponsorship projects.

This is a headache. For the alliance, this is not a loss of millions or tens of millions, but a loss of hundreds of millions or tens of millions.
