NBA: I have 3, no D, and I can't dribble

Needless to say, the names of these five people are of great importance. They have been the focus of everyone's attention since they entered the league.

Especially Michael Jordan. In his rookie season, he was not only selected as an All-Star and won the Rookie of the Season, but he even entered the All-NBA Second Team that season as a rookie.

You must know that being selected for the best team of the season in your rookie season is even scarier than being selected as an All-Star, and the degree of difficulty is also greater.

And "Dumb" Tim Duncan is even more perverted. In his rookie season, he was directly selected to the All-NBA First Team and the All-Defensive Second Team...

Among these five, except for Grant Hill who was destroyed by injuries and Dayao who was loved by Chinese fans, the other three: Jordan, O'Neal and Duncan, are all top ten superstars in history.

Now, Kevin Durant, who is the second-ranked rookie, has also entered this extraordinary ranks. This honor will naturally directly increase his influence and self-confidence.

On the domestic Sina Sports Forum, many fans also teased the topic of Kevin Durant ousting LeBron James and even replacing him:
"Durant is really good. He was selected as an All-Star in his rookie season. Even my brother Fei doesn't have such an honor, right?"

"Haha, it seems like you are not a loyal fan of Fei Ge. Don't you know how Fei Ge's rookie season was? He only started to break out in the Western Conference Finals!"

"Having said that, Fei Ge's rookie season was truly legendary. He barely played any time in the regular season and was just a water cooler keeper. At such a critical moment in the Western Conference Finals, he was able to suddenly perform such a magical performance. In the Western Conference Finals, The seven three-pointers in the fourth quarter of G5 are still vivid in my mind!”

"Lin Fei's success cannot be replicated and is an eternal legend in the NBA!"

"James really feels that he has ruined his career. Why not just stay in the Cleveland Cavaliers? The competition in the Eastern Conference is already loose, and he has to fight with the management and owners. Now it's better. He can mess around in the Western Conference." It’s nothing, you just know how to score points every day, it’s funny!”

"Last week's NBA star-endorsed sneaker sales list was released. Durant's latest Nike sneakers actually surpassed James in sales. This is really a complete crushing!"

"The New Orleans Hornets have a good record this season, and Durant is also playing well. In the final analysis, we have to thank Celtics general manager Danny Ainge. If he hadn't insisted on Paul, Durant would not have been traded. To the wasp!”

"It's not surprising that the Hornets can achieve such a record. I feel that their lineup is very reasonable and they will definitely be a spoiler in the Western Conference in the playoffs!"

"I hope Durant can develop well, keep a low profile, develop well, and don't imitate James' arrogance and suppress the management. In this way, he should have a very good future in the Hornets!"

"Can we call Adu the new queen bee? David West publicly stated at the press conference that the boss of this Hornets team is Durant. It seems that the Hornets management has officially corrected Durant's status. "

"This year's All-Star Game is held in New Orleans again. Durant is playing in the All-Star game right in front of his home. This treatment is really lucky!"

New Orleans, New Orleans Arena.

The All-Star lineup has just been announced, and the entire Internet is talking about it. The New Orleans Hornets sit at home and welcome the Seattle SuperSonics led by LeBron James.

This game is a head-to-head confrontation between James and Durant, two rookies, and a Mesozoic small forward. Coupled with the popularity of the All-Stars, it naturally attracted the attention of many fans.

This is the second meeting between the two teams this season. The first game before was the Christmas Day battle between the two teams.

That game ended with a big victory for the Hornets, so tonight can be regarded as a revenge game for James to lead the SuperSonics to the away game.

After this game is over, it will be the All-Star Weekend in two days.

Because the Knicks had ended the game early before the All-Star weekend, Lin Fei and his All-Star teammates had also flown to New Orleans in advance.

In addition to all the Knicks' starting five being selected for the All-Star Game, Nate Robinson, as last year's dunk king, will once again participate in this year's dunk contest, while Sun Yue will participate in the skills challenge.

At the same time, with the Knicks' first record in the Eastern Conference, Isaiah Thomas naturally deserves to be the head coach of the Eastern Conference All-Star Team.

Tonight's game between the Hornets and SuperSonics at the New Orleans Arena also attracted Knicks players who had just checked into the hotel in the afternoon to come to the front row to watch.

Although Lin Fei only came to the scene as a fan, he still attracted the attention of many fans at the scene. The cameras and high-definition four-sided screens on the sidelines also showed close-ups of Lin Fei's face many times.

"Has Lin also come to watch the game? He looks even more handsome in person than on TV!"

"With Lin at the scene, it feels like LeBron and Durant have to give their best to the game. After all, no one wants to be looked down upon by the number one player in the league!"

"As a golden representative of the 03 generation, James, the number one pick, has been surpassed further and further by Lin, the undrafted draft pick!"

"Lin already has three championships, an MVP and two FMVPs in hand. He has been in double teams for three consecutive years. In addition, he has the honors of scoring champion and steal champion. Let's see what honors James has? Apart from being the best rookie. , It’s so shabby!”

"James is no longer worthy of being compared with Lin. He can't even compare to Wade now. Even Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Durant are going to surpass him!"

"I feel like LeBron James made the wrong decision when he forced the Cavaliers management and owner to confess!"

"I think James still has some strength, but the SuperSonics' lineup is really not very good. I heard in the past few days that the SuperSonics management is going to make big moves. I wonder if we can get a reliable helper for James' trade!"

"To be fair, although Durant entered the All-Stars as a rookie, his personal strength cannot be compared with the experienced James, but the overall strength of the Hornets is far superior to that of the Seattle SuperSonics. !”

Before the game started, a beautiful reporter from ESPN also interviewed Lin Fei and asked him what he thought of tonight's game.

Lin Fei calmly spoke to the microphone handed over by the beautiful reporter: "Although LeBron was not selected for the All-Stars, he is still one of the strongest players in the current league, so I think the Hornets can win tonight's game. …”

At the end of the game, the menacing James faced off against Kevin Durant, using all his strength to defend the second-place rookie. Durant made only 13 of 3 shots and only scored 8 points and 5 rebounds in the game. At the same time, he also committed 5 fouls and 5 turnovers.

Reality has proven that Durant, as a rookie, is far from James' opponent.

However, the Hornets relied on stronger overall unity and cooperation to win the Seattle SuperSonics 116:105 at home, continuing to stabilize the team's fourth record in the Western Conference.

詹姆斯拿到全场最高的39分8篮板8助攻3抢断2封盖，表现无可挑剔，但最终还是没能带领球队拿下胜利。

The Hornets have Tyson Chandler in charge, and the interior defense is airtight, making it difficult for James to break through and can only try to win free throws.

The No. 12 pick didn't play well tonight, and Oden, the new No. 8 pick, also performed mediocrely. Facing the "King of Boxers", he barely contributed points and rebounds, which was mediocre and lackluster.

After losing this game, the SuperSonics' record once again dropped to 12th in the Western Conference, a full 18 games behind the Utah Jazz, which is eighth in the Western Conference.

At the post-game press conference, James was still tough when asked by reporters:
"The SuperSonics are always looking for changes. Every one of my teammates and I are working hard for the playoffs. We still have a chance, and the team will never fail!"

Even though James and head coach PJ Carlesimo have tough words, there are still many fans and experts who believe that the SuperSonics are actually messing up in secret and hope to get the No. 1 pick for two consecutive years.

Judging from the situation at the time, the 2008 draft was not a big year for the draft, but it was a year where potential point guards gathered together.

In particular, Derrick Rose of the University of Memphis can be said to be a rare point guard talent, and Russell Westbrook of UCLA is also good. The SuperSonics now have James and Oden, and they have enough stars in the forward and inside line. They only lack a star defender. Rose and Westbrook are naturally good choices.

Therefore, with the competition in the Western Conference so fierce, the Sonics really have no reason not to perform badly.

The league is currently halfway through the regular season, and each team has played more than 50 games. The Utah Jazz, eighth in the Western Conference, currently have a record of 33 wins and 20 losses.
Looking at the Seattle SuperSonics, their record is only 15 wins and 38 losses. It is impossible to surpass 29 wins in the remaining 18 games.

After all, the Jazz are continuing to win, and Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer are currently in very good shape.

Judging from the current situation, the Clippers, Grizzlies and Kings, ranked 13th-15th in the Western Conference, including the Trail Blazers, who have the same record as the SuperSonics, have already begun to mess up in advance.

The targets are all targeting potential new stars such as Derrick Rose, Michael Beasley, O.J. Mayo, Kevin Love and Westbrook who were drafted in the 08 class.

After Lin Fei won the All-Star Three-Point Contest for three consecutive years, he also announced that he will launch an All-Star Three-Point Contest in the future to give other shooters more opportunities.

Without Lin Fei, the absolute nuclear weapon in the three-point field, who can win the championship in this year's All-Star Three-Point Contest in New Orleans will naturally become more confusing and more variable.

The four players participating in this three-point contest are:
Steve Nash (Phoenix Suns),

Ray Allen (Minnesota Timberwolves),

Jason Kapono (Toronto Raptors),

Gilbert Arenas (New Orleans Hornets).

In addition to Kapono, Nash, Ray Allen and Arenas are all players in this year's All-Star Game. Nash and the General are also the starting point guards of the East and West respectively.

Therefore, although Lin Fei is gone, this year's All-Star Three-Point Contest is still full of stars.

Ray Allen once won the All-Star Three-Point Contest in 2001. He is also the only Three-Point Contest champion in NBA history to participate in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest.

However, what fans didn't expect was that all three All-Stars were ultimately defeated. This year's All-Star Three-Point Contest championship was actually won by the little-known Jason Kapono.

As a time traveler, Lin Fei would naturally not be unfamiliar with such a result. After all, in the original world, Kapono was the champion of the three-point contest for two consecutive years.

Many fixed-point 3D shooters have a higher three-point shooting percentage than many star players, but they often fall behind due to lack of mental quality at critical moments in the game.

As the champion of the three-point shooting competition for three consecutive years, Lin Fei also personally presented the championship trophy of the three-point shooting competition to Jason Kapono, and the name of this trophy was named after Lin Fei.

The slam dunk contest championship was won by "Warcraft" Dwight Howard. This season, Howard has indeed attracted a lot of attention on and off the court. Many experts have already regarded him as O'Neal's successor.

O'Neal and Allen Iverson can be said to be the two superstars who have declined most significantly this season.

Pat Riley on the Heat side is currently negotiating with multiple teams about the Sharks deal. With the trade deadline approaching, O'Neal's time to leave the Heat has also entered a countdown.

Although O'Neal's status this season cannot satisfy the Heat fans and coaching staff, his popularity and influence are still at the top of the league.

After all, he is in the top ten or even the top five in history, so the 36-year-old O'Neal can still bring good box office guarantees to some small ball markets.

Currently, many teams including the Charlotte Bobcats, Portland Trail Blazers, Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, etc. are interested in acquiring the old Shark through trade.

More voices believe that O'Neal, who is about to turn 36, is still capable of fighting. The reason why his performance in the Heat is not good this season is mainly due to his negative state and the stalemate in his relationship with Pat Riley.

In the original world, the then general manager of the Phoenix Suns, Steve Kerr, ignored the objections of the players and head coach Mike D'Antoni before the 08 trade deadline.
Determined to trade Shawn Marion to the Heat in exchange for Shaquille O'Neal.

O'Neal's arrival severely damaged the Suns' offensive system, which directly led to an angry D'Antoni choosing to leave the team in the offseason.

However, in this parallel world, because of Lin Fei's small ball storm, Steve Kerr enlightened in advance, and naturally he would no longer pursue O'Neal, who was past his peak.

In fact, the reason why Cole traded Marion for O'Neal in the original world was mainly because the relationship between Stoudemire and Marion in the team was irreconcilable, and he was forced to send away one of them.

But now, although the relationship between Stoudemire and Marion is not good, it is not to the point of life and death. Although the Suns' regular season record this season has been high and low, more of their energy has been deployed in the playoffs.
Therefore, the Suns management led by Cole has no need to use big trades to destroy the harmony of the team.

If O'Neal doesn't come, Marion will continue to stay in the Suns. Head coach Mike D'Antoni did not have a conflict with Kerr and chose to renew his contract to stay with the team. As the general manager, Steve Kerr will not be fired early by the boss...

After a series of chemical reactions, Cole may stay in the Suns management position for a longer period of time, and will not change his career to become the head coach of the Golden State Warriors this year...

The wheels of history are rolling by, and the development of the NBA is destined to go in a completely different direction because of Lin Fei.

The All-Star Game also went very smoothly, although Kobe and Anthony from the West and Gilbert Arenas, Wade and Howard from the East are all interested in competing for AMVP.

But Lin Fei has four Knicks teammates to help him, and the head coach is also Isaiah Thomas. His playing time, tactical status and ball rights are guaranteed. With his personal strength, defending an All-Star MVP is not too much, right?

最终东部156:149赢下西部明星队，林飞的个人数据是37分10助攻3抢断1封盖。

Since then, Lin Fei has won the All-Star MVP for the second consecutive year and the third time in his career, tying Michael Jordan, Elgin Baylor and Oscar Robertson.

In the entire history of the NBA All-Stars, there is only one player who has won the All-Star MVP four times, and that is Hawks legend Bob Pettit.

Seeing that Lin Fei had won the All-Star MVP trophy for the third time, but he did not even make the All-Stars this year, LeBron James, who was on vacation on the beach in Hawaii, suddenly became depressed again.

The New Orleans All-Star Weekend was a huge success, and what followed was the arrival of the trade deadline for the 07-08 season.

The Knicks have the best record in the league and with all members staying healthy, there is no need to make any trades.

The most shocking deal in the league today was the Heat's trade for O'Neal.

After some weighing, Pat Riley finally chose to make a deal with the Milwaukee Bucks, sending Shaquille O'Neal and "White Chocolate" Williams.
Acquired Australian No. 2008 pick Andrew Bodog, Maurice Williams, some cash and a first-round draft pick from the Bucks.

O'Neal went to the Bucks and became teammates with Arab League and Michael Reed, while Wade partnered with Mo Mo in the backcourt, who was more powerful than White Chocolate. Bodog still had development potential in the paint.

As for who can take advantage of this transaction in the end, time will still have to be tested.

With the end of the All-Star Weekend, the regular season of the 07-08 season has also entered the sprint stage. Lin Fei and the Knicks players are united as one and are moving forward courageously to create a new regular season win record... (End of this chapter)
