Chapter 272 Main battle against the Green Army
From the last game before the Warriors All-Star Game to the first regular season game after the All-Star Weekend, there is a long offseason of 8 days.

For nba players who rush to play games every day, this is the longest rest period during the entire nba regular season.

But for Verus and the NBA players participating in the All-Star Game, they had to rush to Philadelphia in advance to attend one after another event arranged by the league. The managers had their circle of managers, and the players also had various charitable shows. to rush.

Verus must establish a good relationship with the top executives of the nba league, especially his good buddy, the future nba president Mr. Xiao. The principle that there are people in the DPRK and China who are easy to handle is also applicable in the United States.

On February 2002, 2, it was a big holiday. The comfortable generals of the Warriors ushered in the first opponent after the All-Star Game, the Boston Celtics' door-to-door challenge.

The Warriors' winning percentage at home this season has been good, but the Celtics' lineup is also very neat. They are one of the top three in the Eastern Conference. Although the top three are a bit shivering when they win the Western Conference, they are still a strong team with a winning percentage close to 60%. one.

The Celtics twin stars Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker won the All-Star voting qualifications and participated in this official NBA All-Star Game. The other players Williams, Batty, and Anderson are excellent. Can also start in other teams.

The Celtics still have strong players on the bench. Joe Johnson was a rookie selected by the Celtics, but they looked down on Johnson and sent him to the Suns next season. All-Star and Best Player.

However, the All-Star Syndrome has plagued all NBA superstars. Generally speaking, these stars who have played All-Stars will perform relatively weakly in the first two regular season games of their teams. Even a strong man with iron will take a nap slowly.

Therefore, the lineup sent by Lenny easily defeated the Celtics. The score of 75:92 was no suspense. The Green Army took away a victory.

Lenny wouldn't let Yao Ming and Maddie Hill risk getting injured, so he didn't let the three of them start, and played soy sauce for a few minutes in the middle, and then the whole team worked together to win the game.

After all, the physical fitness of Pierce and Walker is there, especially Pierce, who has played in the NBA for 19 seasons and rarely paddled. He was stabbed 11 times in a bar before, one of which was only 0.25cm from the heart, but he did not have a few days I went back to the training ground and started to resume training as if nothing had happened, and I didn't miss a preseason game after that.

However, even if he is an iron fighter, he can't ignore the physiological laws. Pierce played 44 minutes and Walker played 40 minutes. Although the time was very long, the efficiency was not high. rebounds, basically a passing record.

Walker started this time on behalf of the Eastern Conference of the NBA, which made him a little smug. The whole game was like sleepwalking. He scored 22 points and 5 rebounds on 13 of 12 shots. Among them, he made 9 of 1 three-pointers. Pierce is the same a lot.

Warriors starting lineup center No. 55 Uncle Mutombo, if you don’t tell me, you really don’t know that he is 36 years old. Looking at that vigorous appearance, he can play in the NBA for at least another ten years. A strange person like him, even in the major leagues of the NBA Fifty years before and after can not find a few.

Historically, Uncle Mu missed more than 98 regular season games due to injury in the 30 season, and then he didn’t play all of the 00 season. He played 02 regular season games with the Nets in the 24 season. This made many teams come to a conclusion, almost 40 years old The old Mu is dying, and he must retire.

But the amazing thing is that Uncle Mu, who came to Houston in the 04 season, played in the NBA for another 5 seasons, and served as Dayao's backup for five years.

Zach Randolph is the No. 50 power forward. A man like Randolph must always comfort and encourage him with kind words and kind words. It is unpleasant not to be selected for the first-year team of the NBA Rookie Challenge In the nba regular season, let him show his strength, and all dissatisfaction will be easily eliminated.

Randolph is the kind of player who needs a lot of time and a lot of ball possession. He can score a stable performance of 40+20 in an average of 10 minutes per game. Super star.

Small forward No. 12 Bruce Bowen returned from injury to start the team. Lenny and Verus like players like Bowen the most. No matter how strong the offensive ability is, they can't win the NBA championship, but good defensive players are the championship puzzle The most important short board.

Shooting guard No. 20 Larry Hughes started, No. 8 Hu Dong came off the bench and played a lot of time, and point guard No. 4 Chauncey Billups started. His popularity has not been high, and his appearance is too low. There are a lot of points. Historically, it wasn't until Billups won the championship's most valuable player FMVP that he was selected as an All-Star substitute in the second season after that, which shows how scarce his fans were before.

Of course, Yao Ming, Maddie Hill and others also have to play. You can’t play all-stars alive and then come back to the home court and claim to be sick and injured. , just have an explanation to everyone on the scene.

Fans and NBA officials both know that these superstars are really tired during the All-Star Weekend, and they need to check in and show up for countless activities and occasions, so there are some out-of-the-ordinary things after the All-Star Game, and the league turns a blind eye. Just focus on the past and forget it. In short, there is no problem if it does not arouse public anger.

In fact, most fans only need to see their favorite stars play. As for how long they play, there is no mandatory requirement. If you grab a rebound, dunk, take a picture, and spend money on the tickets, you will feel that the tickets are worth the money. In fact, most fans In this case, it is as simple as that.

穆大叔8分11个篮板雄风犹存，壮汉小胖子兰多夫22投9中怒砍19分10个篮板，拉里·休斯27分6个篮板，他也属于颜值拖后腿，数据不错但是球迷粉丝相对少一些。

After the game, there were more fans around the player tunnel, waiting for their idols to sign for them. The stars of the Warriors were more popular and had a better attitude. There were basically no big-name players who lost their temper. From Yao Ming to Maddie Hill, All of them are amiable and have a good attitude. They are definitely the favorite dedicated stars in the NBA.

Especially Dayao, no matter how tired he is from playing and how many scars he has on his body, he will not leave to take a shower until he finishes signing the poster sneakers handed over by the last fan. He is a model of conscience in the industry.
