0549: [Donnie Walsh clears]
David Stern was more satisfied with tonight's match.
This All-Star Game saved the previous rookie game, skill game, three-point contest, especially the slam dunk contest, and drew a successful end to this All-Star weekend. After all, not every year in the All-Star Game can stage such a shocking comeback, and the final few rounds are full of high-intensity offensive and defensive battles, and the excitement is even far greater than that of the playoffs. And in the end, the most topical star hit the lore in the most unbelievable way, which is even more colorful.
David Stern thanked the Dallas fans, the organizers, and all the players in an enthusiastic voice in the center of the field. And then... He used the speed of his draft pick to say the name of tonight's Most Valuable Player: LeBron James.......
As he pronounced James's name, there was a moment of silence in the room.
Because, in the hearts of more people, Snoopy is the real key man. He was the one who directed the drama, he extinguished Kevin Durant's provocation, reversed the strength of the Western Conference All-Stars, and killed all Western Conference hopes.
Why not him?
In the midst of this confusion, the cheers were greatly diminished.
David Stern also seemed to realize this embarrassment, and he quickly put away the smile on the corner of his mouth and continued: "&... snoopydu!!! ”
Stern subconsciously pronounced Duge's nickname.
This is no small mischief of words for a serious league president.
However, the victory was a tsunami of cheers.
This made LeBron James a little embarrassed as he stepped to the center of the stage, because at least in this arena, Snoopy was the more worthy person.
He was originally subconsciously unhappy because of the fact that he was used by Snoopy before, and now he has invisibly become the person who foils him. In this situation, he is not even willing to get this one-half trophy.
However, this was the result of the vote, with a total of 12 votes from the media and fan representatives, with 6 out of 9 media people voting for LeBron James. Snoopy, on the other hand, received three more votes with all the fans.
This is a very rare coincidence.
And the league headquarters is not willing to continue to divide who is better in this matter, although if he throws again, Snoopy will most likely get some advantage.
However, there have been too many implications between LeBron James and Snoopydou in the past month. In this way, David Stern hopes to create an atmosphere of joy and harmony in the NBA. The Jews didn't want to make the alliance the blood-pumping antithetical model of the eighties and nineties.
Unfortunately, his double MVP results didn't get what he wanted.
At least Earl Johnson made a very speechless gesture after learning that this year's All-Star Game Most Valuable Player award had a double yolk and immediately said, "This is not a fair answer for Snoopy and LeBron James." If it were me, I'd hand Snoopy the trophy, he was better tonight, especially when it mattered. ”
"Oh, no, Mr. Earl. In fact, LeBron James also made outstanding contributions at key moments, and his full-court statistics were more comprehensive, he almost got a triple-double, and you can't deny his control of this game. Let's be honest, if it weren't for LeBron getting Kevin Durant's attention on the weak side in the end, Snoopy wouldn't have gotten that chance to shoot on the spot. ”
Chris Webber has a different view, and he has a long-standing admiration for LeBron James, who has not stopped overpowering LeBron since he was a high school student in Ohio.
Charles Barkley, who was on the sidelines, obviously didn't want to make unnecessary comments about the results that had already happened, and he only responded to the rumors that had been widely circulated as a Snoopy supporter: "This award at least shows that Snoopy and LeBron James are equal in the All-Star Game." No matter how much LeBron James says, David Stern won't move Snoopy from the Eastern Conference All-Star position to the Western Conference bench. ”
There is a strong sense of irony in this sentence.
Those critics always said that the Duke was far from the King, and that James could drive Snoopy from New York to Chicago with a single word. But tonight, Snoopy was clearly superior!
Barkley had no intention of whitewashing the peace between Snoopy and LeBron, even though Snoopy and LeBron James were both lifting the trophy together at the moment, and both had big smiles.
They looked very close, just like Kevin Garnett and Zach Randolph, who were talking and laughing together at the press conference before the game.
Immediately, in the group interview session of reporters, both sides sincerely gave each other praise.
'Snoopy is a very good new generation of players, he can play against defenders on the inside, he can attack from the perimeter and he has a clever way of stringing the team together. He was incredible tonight and I have to take his hat off my hat! ”
"LeBron is one of the top stars in the league and can do anything on the court. He did a great job tonight and I salute him as well. ”
Both men's commercial touts are somewhat programmatic.
Reporters were clearly not going to let them go, and the Dallas media asked straight to the point about the previous deal.
LeBron James said that he didn't know what was going on in New York as a Cavaliers player, but he believed everyone was doing the right thing.
Snoopy, on the other hand, emphasized respect for all rules. In response to Donnie Walsh's assessment of the trade with Stephen Marbury for Tyroustomas, he responded by not understanding how management operates.
Then, the reporter asked LeBron James: "After the introduction of Jamison, the Cavaliers' championship index this season has soared, do you think you will break last season's results this season?" Also, do you think you're going to make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference? ”
The point where this question is difficult to answer is not in the first, but in the second.
"Of course, we're aiming for the championship. As for the regular season results, we don't deliberately pursue them, and our goal is always to get the best results in the playoffs. With new players coming in, the most important thing we need next is to get the roster in shape and we'll be in the best shape ahead of the playoffs. So, I thought... We're probably going to maintain where we are and go into the playoffs with a third finish in the East. ”
LeBron James' answer was honest and honest.
And this honesty soon became a sharp knife in the hands of the ESPN reporter, who handed the microphone to Snoopy: "What about you, Mr. Snoopy. Previously, Mr. Jeff Reinsdorf emphasized that Chicago would quickly enter dynastic mode and quickly rule the East. However, Chicago is currently only seventh in the East, and is only 2.5 wins away from ninth in the East. Do you think you'll be able to hold on to your playoff spot in the second half of the season? Also, where do you think the Bulls will make the playoffs? ”
Snoopy smiled. He gave the reporter a calm look, then calmly replied: "Keeping the playoff spot is indeed our biggest task in the second half of the season, and I personally hope that my arrival will bring some improvement to the Bulls." So, it's the best thing to do if you can make the playoffs as sixth in the East. ”
"So, you mean, you want to play Cleveland in the first round?" The reporter asked pretending to be frightened, but in fact he was very happy in his heart.
"It's been my wish all along." Dugg replied with a smile. In fact, he still hasn't said a word: if he enters the playoffs as sixth in the East, then there will be a great probability that he will meet the top three teams in the regular season in succession on the road to promotion. If you want to make a name for yourself, then simply make the hardest choice.
LeBron James immediately welcomed Snoopy after saying this, and even said with a smile: "It must be very interesting for the two All-Star Game MVPs to meet in the first round of the playoffs." ”
He smiled, and his heart was even more joyful, he had long wanted to teach Snoopy a lesson in person, and finally seized the opportunity. If he knew Chinese, he would have written impassionedly: There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and hell has no way to break in.
Journalists after getting this blockbuster consultation. Then he started asking Snoopy about Kevin Durant and Scarlett Johansson.
It was just a friendly joke, like he was running over and trying to kiss Scarlett. None of us have any ill intentions, and we don't take it seriously...... It's as if no one would believe that he really wants to drink Scarlett Johansson's bathwater. ”
"Scarlett was really excited tonight, and she was celebrating very well. I almost ran over from her. But... That's a great shot, isn't it? ”
Snoopy talks eloquently, and LeBron is completely left to the sidelines.
is also an MVP, and Snoopy can talk about far more than this chosen son.
This left LeBron James with a smirk, and although he was uncomfortable, he couldn't leave early: it was a joint interview.
"When it comes to lore, I have to give a sincere thank you to LeBron. If it weren't for his quick run to the weak side, I wouldn't have been able to trick Kevin Durant out of the way with a feint. It was a tactic that we had negotiated early on, and we executed it 100 percent. ”
Snoopy's thanks were sincere, but it was clear that LeBron's smile stiffened...... He was already worried about it, and he thought he was being calculated by Snoopy.
Time flew by, and as the interview time ended. The 2010 All-Star Weekend came to an end for Dugg. Next, he will quickly fly back to Chicago with Derrick Rose, James Johnson and others to actively prepare for their upcoming home game.
And before they left the arena, New York's three-way deal with the Clippers and Rockets was officially concluded.
It marked the collapse of a short-lived New York rebuild, with last season's Finals finalist under Donnie Walsh's command falling apart. Because there were also three deals for David Lee, Nate Robinson, and Wesley Matthews.
Donnie Walsh is clearance.
This team that was briefly branded with the label of Lord Duke has been completely toppled down, and it will be up to them to decide when they will be able to get back on their feet this summer.
