When pride still matters

Chapter 218 The beloved dead pig
February 2th is the last day of the All-Star Weekend and the most critical day.

The All-Star Game will be held today, but in fact, most of the All-Star Game is not enjoyable to watch, because the star players are here to relax and take a vacation, and will not play seriously.

It’s just that this year’s All-Star event is in Los Angeles, so there are a lot of unexpected stunts.

Last year was the first time Yu Fei played in the All-Star game, but he seemed to have no desires and desires, because it was Jordan's All-Star finale show. Although he really wanted to mess up the show, he couldn't ignore the Eastern All-Stars who wanted to give it a good send-off. Dadan’s last thoughts.Therefore, rather than being the black sheep who ruins the curtain call, it is better to show off.

I just didn't expect that in the end it was Kobe Bryant, a complicated Qiao fan, who messed up the curtain call show. Otherwise, saying that the person who loves you will hurt you the most.

As someone who is pure Kobe for four days and always advocates repaying kindness with kindness and revenge with hatred, Yu must repay Kobe well tonight.

In the afternoon, the Eastern Conference All-Stars gathered for their first and only practice during the All-Star weekend.

Head coach Rick Carlisle said: "Even if it is a show, we have to play well, and I will give more playing time to those who dedicate themselves to the game."

Later, Yu Fei gave feedback to Carlisle: "Are there too few pick-and-roll tactics?"

"It's not necessary," Carlisle said. "You'll have a lot of opportunities without the pick-and-roll."

But without running a pick-and-roll, how could I make O'Neal make a fool of himself in front of his home court son?
If you say so, Carlisle is even less likely to arrange pick-and-roll tactics.

Yu Fei rolled his eyes and gave Ben a friendly look.

"You have evil eyes." Daben had a strong negative impression of Fei.

"Big Ben, how many votes did you get this year?" Yu Fei asked.

In one matter, Yu Fei owes Jordan an apology.

That is, he once used Ben's All-Star votes last season to mock the Wizards Dan who has become an old waste. In fact, Ben is also considered the traffic king in the East. At least in the past two years, he has been the number one on the West Coast. star.

This year's All-Star vote count is second only to Vince Carter, the top vote-getter.

Big Ben said proudly: "190 million votes."

What a scary number.

If he were to be placed in the Western Conference, he would be the top vote-getter in the Western Conference.

Garnett, who is known as the "ticket", only received 178 million votes, and Kobe, who made his debut with Eagle County's cool and fierce black and red, only received 175 million votes.

"The fans like you so much, don't you want to perform well in the All-Star Game?"

Someone's adaptive emotional intelligence is online.

Daben asked: "What do you want to say?"

"We play more pick-and-rolls. You try to follow the ball and I can help you complete a lot of dunks."

"You are so kind?"

"I think you are a little biased against me. In fact, as long as you know me carefully, you will know that I am a good person."

A good person?Kenyon Martin from the New Jersey Nets turned green when he heard Yu Fei calling himself a good guy.

However, he didn't want to settle old scores with Yu Fei here.

Ben immediately became a supporter of Yu Fei's decision to implement a large number of pick-and-roll offenses. He looked at Carlisle: "We need pick-and-rolls."

Carlisle's expression remained unchanged: "As long as you are willing, I have no objection."

To the rest of the Eastern Stars, Yu Fei's proposal didn't matter.

For example, Carter, the league's top vote-getter, is simply a model of having no desires or desires.

Followed by Iverson and Tracy McGrady, they don't have a strong desire to perform and just want to work hard on the court.

The rest are waiting and not worth mentioning.

On the contrary, Michael Reed knew what Yu Fei was planning, but he would not interfere. After all, it was his personal grudge. Although they could not get together easily, they should not leave any negative consequences.

Evening
There are still a few hours before the start of the All-Star Game, but the Staples Center is already bustling with activity as if the game has already begun.

Magic Johnson shows off his smile everywhere like a succubus.

No matter what event is being held, you can see him there.

His smile is so contagious that Lakers fans can get all the comfort from him that "OK is actually okay."

"Believe me, this is the Lakers, we will handle it, everything will be fine!"

Magic, who lives for fame and fortune, participated in the Shooting Stars game yesterday, which showed his people-friendly image and showed that he is still active on the front line and that he still has a deep influence on professional basketball, even though he has retired. For many years.

However, are the Lakers really as optimistic as he said?
The answer is of course no.

On the afternoon of the last game day before the All-Star Weekend, the Lakers suddenly held a press conference and owner Jerry Buss announced that they had suspended Phil Jackson's early contract extension negotiations.The Lakers and local media really exploded.

"Los Angeles Times" reporter JA Adande asked O'Neal and Kobe their views on this.

O'Neal wanted to continue playing for Jackson, and Kobe's attitude was: "I don't care."

This incident revealed that Kobe not only had irreconcilable conflicts with O'Neal, but also had a deep gap with Jackson.Moreover, the media quickly and intelligently thought that Kobe and Buss had a close relationship.Although it is impossible for Kobe to go to all kinds of indescribable places with Old Buss like the Magician did, his professionalism and non-black characteristics made Old Buss appreciate it very much.

Just a few months after the Eagle County incident, which was also the period when Kobe's reputation was at its worst, Bass still compared him to his own son.

This makes people think that the Lakers have not renewed O'Neal in advance, and now even Jackson's contract renewal negotiations have been suspended. What role does Kobe play in this?

Years later, we would learn that Kobe was the scapegoat for Buss, and now, it was all Kobe's fault, as the Los Angeles Times wrote: "For years, Kobe has been disobedient to Phil Jackson. At the same time, he often whispered in Buss' ears, believing that Shaq was always out of shape and lacked leadership at the beginning of the season. Lakers insiders believed that Kobe's actions led to Buss's decision to suspend negotiations to renew the contracts of O'Neal and Jackson. "

In any case, Yu Fei appreciates people like this. His off-field reputation is hopelessly bad. On the field, he often acts as a cancer to destroy the team's tactics. When necessary, he can help the boss take the blame, as long as he doesn't become his teammate. , He will definitely do this to death.

The show at the Staples Center that night was huge and Beyoncé was at it again.

It’s just that she didn’t wear the jersey this year.

What attracts more attention is undoubtedly the celebrities on the sidelines. After all, the reason why Los Angeles has become the cultural center of the United States is not because of its strong sports atmosphere. Watching sports events is at best an episode in people's lives. Living in Beverly Hills Celebrities from all walks of life are what make this city known to the world.

But today everything has to make way for the All-Star Game.Although celebrities are not the protagonists, it provides the biggest stage in the world. Just sitting in the Staples Center and being favored by a photographer means that your name and appearance are recognized and familiar to the world, and This is very attractive to Hollywood stars who are always busy for publicity.

Yu Fei also got a ticket for Christina, but she was like a firefly compared to other celebrities at the scene.

Jack Nicholson and Leonardo DiCaprio set a standard for the stars on the scene - whether it is strength or commercial value, the stars sitting here are the best.

Yu Fei was a little disappointed. There were not many female celebrities here tonight, and they were not very eye-catching. He decided to focus all his attention on the court.

When the stars from the East and West were introduced on the spot, Yu Fei's name once again triggered boos from the audience.

"The booing isn't loud enough!" said Shark Nicholson, "This bastard deserves to be hated by more people!"

Yu Fei gave him a middle finger with a smile.

"Look how arrogant this bastard is!" Nicholson waved his hands around, "Shush him hard!"

Then, Yu Fei shrugged to the right side where the boos were the loudest.

Why boo him?Didn't he just not deal with O'Neal?There are many people on the field who deserve to be booed more than him, right?
At this time, a blond woman on the sidelines smiled stupidly: "It turns out there are people in this world who are more hated than me."

"Isn't that Fry Yu? It's normal. There are not many Lakers fans who don't hate him." Others echoed.

The blonde asked, "Why?"

People around me started with nonsense literature: "Because he is just very annoying."

Before the game started, Garnett teased Yu Fei, "Fry, brother, you can't do this. Why don't people in LA even give you a little love in the All-Star Game?"

Yu Fei responded to this high school student scum who refused to mention any pot: "If I had been kind to others since I entered the league and never made it to the second round of the playoffs, they would not be stingy in giving me their love. .”

This made Kobe, who had already turned on robot mode, laugh.

"I agree."

Tim Duncan, who had been observing Yu Fei from the side, thought that Da Fei might really have some kind of antisocial personality. As soon as he stepped onto the court, he wanted to cause embarrassment to his opponents.

He looked at Garnett's expression, which was filled with shame and anger. He would definitely not give up.

The two sides were preparing to jump the ball. Yu Fei turned around and found that ABC's live commentary team today included an old friend of Washington-Doug Collins.

Yu Fei nodded slightly as a greeting.

With a jump ball at the beginning, Yao Huang won the ball for the Western Stars.

Both sides played very relaxedly. This was not professional intensity, not even the intensity of high school basketball.

This is basically the same intensity as in a five-on-five game on the field, where both sides run out of energy and start walking defense.

Kobe shot the first shot, missed, and Duncan made the extra shot.

On the Eastern Star team's side, due to flying control of the ball, a closer look revealed that the starting lineup in the Western Conference was really too high, center Yao Huang, power forward Duncan, and small forward Garnett.

Jason Kidd, the starting point guard of the Western Conference, saw Yu Fei coming over and couldn't lower his waist. The meaning was very clear: you attack as you like and I'll defend as you like.

Yu Fei collected the ball two meters outside the three-point line and threw a super long three-pointer.

"Shh!"

It feels good tonight, Yu Fei thought, he must reward his beloved dead fat pig.
