In January, the Clippers lost three more games and missed out on a record-breaking record, and the players also suffered injuries.

In the game against the Raptors, Jokic accidentally strained his left hip in the third quarter and was unable to stand on his own for a while, which scared everyone. Fortunately, his X-ray was negative, and it was not that serious.

Jokic missed two weeks as a result, and David West missed nine games with a left thumb injury, and the Clippers' interior strength declined.

Whiteside became the starting center, and he proved to be inferior to Jokic, with athleticism but limited tactical impact and a lack of change after the pick-and-roll. He receives the ball and attacks the basket directly, the passing awareness is not qualified, the opponent has traces to follow, and he just blocks his empty cutting route.

The Clippers' poor transfer of the ball inside will also affect the play of their outside players, and they have lost two games during this period.

Whiteside's style is very similar to Jordan Jr., the advantage is that he has a longer range than Jordan Jr., of course, with his current ability, he is also worthy of a high salary, and the Heat gave him 98 million for 4 years in his previous life.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Jordan Jr. and the Clippers discussed a contract extension, but they did not sign the maximum salary. If Jordan Jr. jumps out of his contract in 18 years and then signs a maximum salary, he can get up to $207 million for five years.

On the eve of Yang Rui's rebirth, the Clippers couldn't make the playoffs, they were worried about renewing the contract with Jordan Jr., and it seemed a bit brainless to sign, and the loss if they didn't sign was also very big, for example, it was difficult for Clippers fans to see three free throws in the future, how much less fun.

In short, the salary of players in the league has risen too much nonsense, and now Whiteside's annual salary of 10 million yuan is the price of cabbage.

In February, the Clippers Stars won all the games before the game.

Yang Rui was trapped in a family war and was a little deserted at work. The three girlfriends are on vacation after filming, Yang Rui must always stand up and be peaceful, and then the three of them always send fire to him.

At this time, the role of the first assistant coach Luke Wharton was revealed, and he took on more and more work, in addition to arranging training at ordinary times, he often reminded Yang Rui to make substitutions and call a timeout during the game.

Yang Rui is a coach who is receptive to other people's opinions, and in his previous life, Wharton showed his ability with the Warriors in the 15-16 season.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr underwent two back surgeries in the summer of '15 and suffered from spinal leaks. Wharton replaces Kerr as interim head coach. Under Wharton's command, the Warriors started the season with a 29-1 record.

After the season, the Lakers offered Walton a contract and poached him as head coach.

Now Yang Rui has always been healthy, Wharton has not had many opportunities to perform, and it is too late to leave the school.

Star Weekend was held in New Orleans for the second time in four years.

Charlotte, where the event was originally held, was disqualified after North Carolina passed a bill against the LGBT community (that is, the LGBT community) in March last year, refusing to protect the rights and interests of these groups, which caused a great deal of controversy and boycott.

If it was before 2010, these were just minorities, and it certainly didn't matter if North Carolina passed the bill. After 2010, can a state refuse to protect America's majority, but not be resisted?

As soon as the bill was passed, NBA commissioner Adam Silva stood up and stated the league's position and attitude, and if North Carolina did not amend the gay discrimination laws they approved, the league would consider disqualifying Charlotte from hosting the All-Star Game.

Hornets owner Michael Jordan has also issued a similar statement, saying that the team opposes all forms of discrimination and has not had any effect or substance.

Then Boss Joe cried, because the team had invested $33.5 million to improve Time Warner Arena, and the bamboo basket was empty.

The final results of the All-Star voting were released, and this year's vote king was elected by James, whose fans finally voted more than 1.8 million, and James was also the first in both media votes and player votes.

This year, the league revised the voting rules, and the popularity of the stars has been incredibly closer, and in the fan vote, the top three in the east and west have similar votes. Many people on the Internet questioned the vote, James did not have a championship, but also went to the Mavericks to form a group, and was sprayed every day, there is no reason why his popularity is so high?

In the past, the league rigged votes, and if there were under-qualified role players with a high number of votes, Stern would overtake the great star in the final stages. For example, Bruce Bowen received a super high number of votes before retiring, and the data was extremely poor, how could he be selected as an All-Star?

Since Adam Silva came to power, the league's manipulation of some things has become more and more apparent, and it has always been questioned. In China, the media translated his name as Adam Xiao Hua, which looks like a Chinese name and has a homonym more like a "joke".

The league, which is made for the sake of making stars, is offensive, and the Mavericks have a second-place record in the West, and when they are only halfway through the regular season, there is a lot of speculation that the league is ready to give James this year's regular season MVP.

That's exactly what Silva thought. He also considered the Thunder's Westbrook, but it was not easy to win, although Wei Shao's current data averaged a triple-double per game, many fans said that he was a brush and didn't buy it, and he didn't even make the Western Star starter.

James's popularity declined significantly last season, and this year's team change has become the ticket king, and it looks like it's boring. Who will support him? Now some Cavaliers fans have changed their minds.

The Cavaliers are seventh in the East, and Isaiah Thomas, who has been a great performer, has been selected as the Eastern Conference star starter, and Cavaliers fans are very supportive of him. And last season, Thomas Jr. was the backstabber of the Cavaliers' playoff exit.

In any case, Silva has brought the NBA's star game to the world's attention, and his strategy since taking office has been to further promote the "internationalization" of the NBA.

In the current era of information explosion, the internationalization of the NBA is more like a well-known media planning its own "annual special report", and the first step is to create topicality and discussability, so that the world knows about the league. The quickest way to do this is to create a topic where people around the world can share the same hatred and even spurn it.

When people find a common slot, their interests and concerns are completely out of this slot, they are just enjoying the fun of spraying.

For example, why has Kobe Bryant always been a superstar? Why is he still shooting the most in the team no matter how low his shooting percentage is? Why is he able to go on a retirement tour? It's because the league likes his topicality. Comi and Kohei will fight forever. In order to spray more beautifully and accurately, Kohei watched the Lakers even more than Komy......

James is also a superstar full of this kind of slot now.

The Clippers had three selections in the All-Star Game, with Curry starting and Draymond Green and Antetokounmpo coming off the bench.

The other four starters in the West are Anthony Davis, James, Harden, Leonard.

Eastern Conference All-Star starters: Isaiah Thomas, Klay Thompson, DeRozan, Jimmy Butler, Durant.

Wall is an all-star bench with an outrageous low popularity, with fewer votes than the injured Derrick Rose and only slightly more than the Hornets' Kemba Walker. He went from the core to the second-in-command, and now he is the third-in-command.

This year, the Eastern Stars didn't have a single orthodox interior lineup, and Millsap was the only power forward, setting an alternative record.

There are also only three interior stars in the West, and after Duncan's retirement, Aldridge has not performed well this season and has not been selected, DeAndre Jordan is selected for the first time, and the other two are cousin Cousins and Bushy Davis.

Even guards are generally 190cm tall, and the NBA has entered the era of swing man.
