From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 161 All-Star Opening

On February 2, the NBA 17 All-Star Game kicked off.

In the past 20 days, the Celtics played 9 games and achieved 7 wins and 2 losses. To 46 wins.

Jianghu averaged 9 points, 21 rebounds and 9 assists in these 15.9 games.

Throughout January, they didn't lose a game, creating a winning month.

Jianghu played 14 games in January, averaging 28.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 11.3 assists per game, which once again won him the honor of the best player of the month.

Stevens had a whim, and in the past period of time began to let Jianghu control the ball more, allowing Owen to focus on scoring.

This is very easy to operate in the eyes of outsiders, but the effect is surprisingly good.

过去9场比赛凯尔特人场均得分最高的是欧文，场均以48.5%投篮命中率，39%三分命中率，砍下33.5分6篮板3.5助攻。

In the game against the Lone Ranger on February 2, Irving also scored a career-high 3 points and scored the second 62+ in his career. He also became Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain, Kobe Bryant Leant, after Allen Iverson, is the fifth player in history to score 2+ multiple times in his career.

Jianghu reduced his shots and allowed his teammates to get more opportunities.

Jaylen Brown seems to have found his form in recent games.

In the past 9 games, Jaylen Brown averaged 20.5 points per game, which is 16.5 points higher than the season average of 4 points. The season's average field goal percentage has also increased from 50% to 55.6%. The second-year Brown, Getting closer and closer to the level you should reach.

In February, the Celtics lost two games to the Raptors and the Warriors.

The Celtics played against the Raptors for the fourth time this season. The Raptors lost all three games before, and the Celtics came with an 18-game winning streak. Everyone is optimistic that the Celtics will win easily.

But unfortunately, even though the Celtics are all online in this campaign, Irving scored 18 points on 9 of 26 shots, and Jianghu scored 27 points, including 19 points in the fourth quarter.

But the stubborn garbage brothers do not want to be swept by a team led by a rookie in the regular season.

In this game, the garbage brothers DeRozan and Lowry broke out with all their energy. Lowry scored 12 points on 10 of 30 shots, and DeRozan scored 20 points on 12 of 38 shots.

两人合计32投21中，三分球10投8中，连德罗赞都投出了4中3的三分球命中率。

But the Raptors did not win the game so easily. The Raptors' rookie OG Anunoby scored 3 consecutive three-pointers at the last moment to lead the Raptors to overtake the score in the last minute of the game.

In this game, the Celtics still led by 30 points in the last 3 seconds. They did not make any mistakes and hit all the tactical free throws, but they still lost to the Super Raptors in the end.

Jianghu also expressed congratulations to the Raptors star DeRozan after the game. Facing the super god Raptors in this game, they really lost their temper.

The Celtics' second loss came to the Golden State Warriors. They came to Boston with a vengeance. The Celtics lost the game at the last second. This is an image that every Warriors player will never forget. .

Because before the start of the game, almost everyone in the Warriors wrote hostility and determination to avenge the Celtics.

In this game, the Celtics adjusted their starting lineup, moving Caruso from the bench to the starting lineup to match Curry, and the task of defending Durant was given to Jianghu.

在江湖的限制下，杜兰特23投9中砍下24分，库里的命中率也只有22中8，砍下20分。

But the scary thing about the Warriors is that they will always have someone who can stand up on the offensive end and blast out waves of firepower.

Tonight, belongs to Buddha - Klay Thompson! !

He scored 46 points and made 15 of 12 three-pointers. He played a terrifying performance here.Especially in the fourth quarter, he made 7 of 7 shots, 6 of 6 three-pointers, and scored 20 points in a single quarter, which made the Celtics' overnight efforts in vain.

尽管江湖也得到了42分，第四节单节同样12投9中拿到了21分，但末节其他人13中2的表现还是让凯尔特人以118比125输掉了这场比赛。

Jianghu once used Thompson's Buddha's Light when he was in the CBA, and today he has been severely cracked down on piracy by the master.

After this game, the major media's call for the Celtics' inability to win the championship became stronger again, although they are still No. 4.5 in the Eastern Conference, with [-] more wins than the Warriors.But the media all believed that the Warriors did not exert too much force in the regular season.

If the Celtics are lucky enough to enter the Finals, they may not be the Warriors' opponents.

Regarding this voice, Jianghu did not refute it. Compared with the Warriors, the current Celtics are indeed inferior. Whether it is the depth of the lineup or the tacit understanding of the team players, the two teams are not on the same latitude.

On February 2, Celtics head coach Stevens and the Rockets head coach announced the All-Star starters and substitutes together.

These two head coaches with the first half-time record in the East and West will become the head coaches of the All-Stars in the East and West. In addition to the starting lineup jointly selected by fans and players, the two coaches will select the substitutes for both sides.

So far, in addition to the starters selected by Jianghu, all the All-Star substitutes have also been selected one by one.
Western Curry starting backcourt: Stephen Curry, Kyrie Irving.

Starting frontcourt: Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Joel Embiid.

Subs for Curry: Bradley Beal, Damian Lillard, Porzingis, Kevin Love, Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry, Draymond Green.

Curry, a cheater, snatched Irving as soon as he came up, forming a perverted combination of Zhan, Du, Ku, and Ou.

After the selection was over, Curry had to say: "Our biggest opponents are now in our team. There is no way to hit a three-pointer above our heads, and there is no way to chase us and block shots."

"I think we can win this game."

Eastern Jianghu team starting backcourt: DeMar DeRozan, James Harden.

Starting frontcourt: Jianghu, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Anthony Davis.

Subs: Russell Westbrook, John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Victor Oladipo, Klay Thompson, Al Horford, Karl-Anthony Towns.

The lineup of Curry's team is even more perverted, but Jianghu doesn't feel any regrets. James and Durant are already rivals in Jianghu. If they are in the first team, their positions overlap, and there may be conflicts. It is better to choose to leave.

On February 2th, Jianghu called Sofia in advance and booked her a two-day All-Star sideline ticket.

The nba held the last regular season game before the All-Star on February 2. In the following week, the NBA will enter the biggest festival of the year --- the NBA All-Star Weekend.

2018年洛杉矶全明星赛举办时间是2月17到2月19日，其实全明星每年都在2月上演，但今年17日18日19日连续三天的2018年nba洛杉矾全明星周末，正好赶上了全球华人最重要的节日春节。

Jianghu and LeBron James, Stephen Curry recorded a video in advance on February 2, sending blessings to Chinese and overseas Chinese around the world.

"Strong love, deep blessings, lingering miss, and earnest greetings. Even if we are thousands of miles apart, it will not offset my wishes and thoughts for all compatriots. I wish everyone a happy new year in the new year. Gong Xi Fa Cai, wealth and prosperity, All the best and good health."

Jianghu will definitely not be able to go home for New Year's Eve dinner and New Year's Eve this year, because his schedule is too tight.

The All-Star Weekend has a total of three days. The first day is the NBA Celebrity Game and the Rookie Challenge. The second day is the Shooting Star Competition, the Skills Challenge, the Three-Point Contest, and the Slam Dunk Contest. The last day is the finale of the All-Star Game.

Jianghu needs to participate in the Rookie Challenge on the first day, the three-pointer contest on the second day, the dunk contest on the second day, and the All-Star Game on the last day. In these three days, he has no time to rest, let alone go to the Spring Festival the...

On the day before the All-Star Weekend, all All-Star players need to go out to perform charity work.

Under the leadership of the bald president, Jianghu, James, Curry, Durant and many other big-name superstars, plus Chris Paul, who was not selected as an All-Star but was actually the chairman of the players union.

NBA superstars appeared outdoors in groups, planted trees with children, participated in basketball training together, and conducted health courses for teenagers, mainly targeting poor teenagers under the age of 17.

This event will also raise funds for the entire Los Angeles, and the final donation will go to the NBA Charity Foundation to help the development of impoverished young people in Los Angeles and California.

During the event, NBA Operations President Adam Silver took the lead in donating $100 million in donations. Jiang Hu, LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Chris Paul, Kevin Durant and others also contributed their own donations. $50.

"Los Angeles is one of the cities with the strongest basketball atmosphere in the United States. The Lakers have stood on the highest podium in the NBA 16 times, which is a large part of NBA history. The NBA All-Star Game is a great opportunity for us to give back to this city , this city means a lot to the NBA."

Silver said: "Starting today and throughout the season, we will celebrate the NBA All-Star Game in this way."

"The city of Los Angeles has a unique and rich connection to the game of basketball."

nba players union president paul said
"Many stars will come here to train in the summer, and our players union will often hold meetings in Los Angeles during the off-season."

"On behalf of our players, I congratulate the start of this annual event, which we are delighted and proud to be able to do our part of."

Jiang Hu was also invited to speak on stage, and when asked what he thought about charity, Jiang Hu thought for a while and said:

"I think that's what sets the NBA apart from other leagues."

"Not only do we have the best basketball players in the world, but we are also a caring organization that always wants to give back to the society."

"We are just NBA players. We may not have the means or the ability to change the world, but we should change ourselves. We should help people who are still living in a very difficult situation when we are capable. The world belongs to all of us. Rather than belonging to a small group of people!!"

"When we are a stronger group, caring for those who are still weak is what we should do, and what we should continue to do. Thank you NBA for giving us all such an opportunity to give back to society."

Jianghu's speech won the applause of everyone present, and everyone couldn't believe that it came from a 19-year-old young man.

It was really shocking.

After the charity event, there is the NBA dinner, where almost all the All-Stars will attend. It is said that many stars have agreed to join forces with each other, and many times the discussions started here.

The protagonist of this banquet is destined not to be Jianghu, his social butterfly attributes are not close.

The most dazzling person at the banquet belonged to LeBron James. He was wearing a black tuxedo. He laughed excitedly with Davis for a while, and whispered with Durant in the corner for a while...

I don't know if they are discussing when to play together.

However, Jiang Hu's popularity and strength are here. Although he did not take the initiative to greet people, many people still took the initiative to come forward to get close to him.

For example, Towns of the Timberwolves and Porzingis of the Knicks, Bill of the Wizards and Oladipo of the Pacers are all players in different positions from the Jianghu.

Players in the same position basically hide away when they see the world, they can't fight again and again, and they won't be on the same team in the future. Is there a need to get closer?
After the party, Jianghu was stopped by reporters at the hotel entrance and asked a strange question.

"I heard that other stars are likely to exclude you at the All-Star time, what do you think about this issue?"

Hearing the words, Jianghu didn't speak, but frowned, reached out and measured the reporter's forehead with the back of his hand, then shook his head, sighed and walked away.

Jianghu suspects that the reporter's brain may have been kicked by a donkey, otherwise he would not be able to ask such an ignorant question.

"Fuck, the captain of the team is me, the head coach of the team is our team coach, who the hell dares to target me??"

A total of 4 people from the Boston Celtics participated in the All-Star Game this year, namely, participating in the rookie game, dunks, three-pointers, and the arena in the main game, Jaylen Brown who participated in the rookie game, and participated in the All-Star Game Owen and Horford.

Facing the reporter's question, Jianghu said without humility:

"We have four players in the All-Star Game, which shows that we are a talented team. We have a lot of energy. Everyone has excellent athletic ability and is a talented scorer."

Jianghu also hopes that his teammates can also get more attention from the outside world. He doesn't want all the spotlights to be given to himself alone, because all games cannot be won by one person.

February 2th is the first day of the All-Star Weekend, and it is also the busiest day for the media. In the morning, the two teams in the Rookie Challenge will practice and conduct media interviews. Action" community service activity interview, the night is today's highlight Rookie Challenge.

In this year's All-Star rookie game, the league sent two retired stars as head coaches, and the head coaches of two NBA teams became their assistant coaches.

The World Team is head coached by Charles Barkley and his assistant is Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle.

The protagonist of the US team is Shaquille O'Neal, and his assistant coach is Lakers head coach Luke Walton.

Jianghu called Barkley, the head coach of the world team, after the interview that morning, and then did not go to the team training in the afternoon.

When the other rookies came to the training ground, Jianghu was still enjoying the beauty in his arms with Sofia.

The other rookies didn't have any complaints when they saw Jianghu's absence from training. They had already acquiesced that Jianghu belonged to the ranks of the league's top stars, tied with James Curry and others. Naturally, there was no need to train with young people like them who were not well-known.

Why do you think so?
Because when they went to Boston, they saw the huge portraits of Jianghu on the streets of Boston, the billboards of Jianghu on the way out of the airport with an average of 100 meters, and the murals everywhere in downtown Boston, so they knew what kind of status Jianghu has in Boston... …

Everyone has joined a team for half a year, and they are still working hard for a stable rotation or for the team to enter the playoffs.

Look at the rivers and lakes?
The endorsement contract is several hundred million, and the Twitter followers are tens of millions.

The league's scoring list is at the top, the MVP list is at the top, the team's record is second in the league, the East is the leader, and the individual is the All-Star vote leader.

How to compare? ?
