The middle of February is the All-Star Game, although the event is tense in January, more people are still paying attention to the All-Star lineup, especially now that the All-Star voting is full of topics, Chamberlain, who plays center all year round, ran to play power forward, Yi Jianlian seems to be trying to beat Garnett to become the starting forward, everything makes fans want to stop.

The first result came out in the All-Star Rookie Challenge, with the sophomore team led by Chamberlain, Kevin Durant (Thunder), Yi Jianlian (Nets), Al Horford (Hawks), Al Thornton (Clippers), Teddy Young (76ers), Ronnie Starkey (Pistons), Yaaron Brooks (Rockets), and Luis Scola (Rockets) selected.

The first-year team has Derrick Rose (Bulls), O.J. Mayo (Grizzlies), Marc Gasol (Grizzlies), Greg Oden (Trail Blazers), DeAndre Jordan (Thunder), Russell Westbrook (Thunder), Eric Gordon (Clippers), Michael Beasley (Heat), Brook Lopez (Nets) selected.

Last year's champion Lang was a first-year player in this year's All-Star Rookie Game, speaking of which, Trail Blazers fans couldn't help but sigh, and what was even more embarrassing was that Oden couldn't play because of his left knee injury, and Trail Blazers fans wanted to cry without tears, but the league gave them a consolation, they chose a rookie player from the same Trail Blazers to make up for the position left by Oden's absence, that is, Spanish flyer Rudy Fernandez.

The results of the All-Star Game were then released, and in the East, "Warcraft" Howard became the "vote king", receiving a total of 2.95 million votes. "Little Emperor" LeBron James narrowed the distance with Howard in his late stages, and he received 2.84 million votes. Yi Jianlian received 2.32 million votes to join James as the starting forward in the East, the Heat's Wade currently received the highest number of votes from an Eastern defender with 2.8 million, and the Hawks' Hawk King Joe Johnson was honored to be on the last train of the All-Star starters with 1.97 million votes.

Yi Jianlian's last moment finally surpassed Garnett, the Wolf King got 2.2 million votes, according to the NBA All-Star voting rules, he missed the All-Star starter, you must know that this is Garnett's 12th All-Star trip, and he was all starters in the previous 10 seasons! It's just a matter of falling out of the starting lineup this time, but what makes the wolf king feel sad and angry is that he actually let a rookie who doesn't care about it at all squeeze out, is this still reasonable?

The Eastern All-Star lineup is actually not a shiny, but the Western lineup is a shock, Chamberlain won the 2009 NBA All-Star vote with 3.25 million votes, and became the first player in league history to receive more than 3 million All-Star votes.

In addition to Chamberlain, five other players broke Yao's all-time All-Star vote record of 2.55 million votes set in 2004-05 this year, including James, Kobe, Wade, Duncan and Howard, all of whom broke the discipline that Yao Ming once maintained.

In the West, as the youngest All-Star in the history of the league, Kobe Bryant has participated in the All-Star for the 11th consecutive time since 1998, Duncan will also usher in his 11th time, Iverson is the 10th All-Star, he and Kobe Bryant are the main guards in the West, Duncan cooperates with Chamberlain, and Yao Ming plays the center.

East Substitute Lineup:

Center (C): Chris Bosh (Raptors)

Forward (F): Paul Pierce (Celtics), Danny Granger (Pacers), Kevin Garnett (Celtics)

Guards (G): Ray Allen (Celtics), Devin Harris (Nets), Jameel Nelson (Magic)

West Substitutes:

Center (C): Shaquille O'Neal (Suns)

Forward (F): Dirk Nowitzki (Mavericks), Pau Gasol (Lakers), Amare Stoudemire (Suns)

Guards (G): Chris Paul (Hornets), Brandon Roy (Trail Blazers), Chauncey Billups (Nuggets)

It can be seen from such a comparison, not to mention how the starting lineup in the East is compared to the West, let's talk about the bench lineup, the popularity and honor of the players in the East are really poor, except for one Garnett who is still a real star, what are the other people?

Bosh actually played center? Seeing this list, Chamberlain smiled, don't you always take Lao Tzu to play the center and enter the forward to talk about things? So Bosh is obviously a striker, how can he play center? The Eastern coaches can't say that now that the interior center is withering, if they don't choose Bosh to play center, then they have to choose players like Big Ben and Big Z, and that's definitely a nightmare.

The trend of being strong in the West and weak in the East has become more and more obvious, just look at the All-Star lineup, the Eastern substitute Garnett is a real star, others such as Pierce and Junzi Lei, these two are somewhat famous, what about the others? That's too bad.

Compared with the West, the Eastern All-Star bench is simply a scumbag, in terms of honor, except for Garnett, the other 6 people have a fart honor? Yes, Pierce is FMVP, but he only got it last season, before the Big Three teamed up, what was Pierce's reputation in the basketball world? At most, he can be a bit of a force in Boston or the East, and he doesn't count in the forward line of the entire league.

Look at the West, among the big forwards, West, who averaged 22+11 per game this season, was not selected, Randolph, who averaged 25+ per game, didn't even see his name, and among the small forwards, Anthony cried and fainted in the toilet. Speaking of forwards and guards, Deron Williams, Jason Kidd, Kevin Durant, Tony Parker, Ginobili, not to mention the veteran superstar Maddy and West, the sixth man who is now dominating the league, which of these people is not famous? But they just didn't make the All-Star list.

With the release of the squad, the debate between fans and experts has entered a white heat, this time not only about Chamberlain, Yi Jianlian's vote dispute, but also the general trend of the league, many media such as TNT, ESPN, USA Today, Slam Dunk and other authoritative media have proposed that the league needs to reform the all-star program, not to mention the controversial global voting plan, let's talk about the East and West lists.

Joe Johnson started in the Eastern Conference guards, and there were Danny Granger, Devin Harris, and Jamison on the bench, but there are a lot of top guards in the West who can't play in the All-Star Game, isn't it funny?!

But in the face of the controversy and condemnation of the media and fans, the league just didn't speak.

Perhaps, as Li Qun analyzed, Stern is also happy to see today's scene, the topic, the more noisy it is, the hotter it is, and isn't this result the result of NBA globalization? There are 24 All-Star players, including six international players: Chamberlain, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are Chinese, Duncan is a French Virgin Islands, Nowitzki is German and Gasol is a Spaniard.

There is an endless stream of discussions from the outside world, and the atmosphere within the Warriors is also hot.

Over the past few seasons, the Warriors have been quietly and willingly filling a brick of the league revolution, moving where there is a need, they don't talk, they just look from the sidelines. But from last season's Chamberlain, Warriors administrators and fans, including Nelson Sr., turned into serfs and sang, and Chamberlain participated in the slam dunk contest and played the All-Star Game in the All-Star Game last season, which was lively enough, but Nelson Sr. was not enough, and the Warriors were more ambitious in this season's All-Star.

In addition to the rookie game and the main game, the All-Star is more concerned about the skill challenge, three-point contest and slam dunk contest, each event is attended by four players, usually in mid-January the team's head coach helps the players submit applications, and then the league's organizing committee selects them.

This time, Nelson Sr. handed out six spots in a row — West and Iverson wanted to compete in the Skills Challenge, Billups and Curry competed in the three-point contest, and Ibaka and Morrow competed in the dunk contest.

Iverson was directly dumbfounded when he saw this list, he hurriedly went to old Nelson, and said very implicitly: "Old Tang, I don't think this is appropriate, you know, I'm already an old guy, the All-Star Game is enough for me, this damn skill challenge, I think it's better to forget it, right?" ”

Billups also complained: "Shit, is the boss drunk?" He asked me to participate in the three-point contest? In fact, everyone knows that my ability is fine, but what am I doing in the three-point contest? I'm already a 30-year-old man, and these honors are like clouds for me, I just want to win the championship!"

Morrow's face was full of grievances: "The boss is obviously joking with us, I'm participating in the slam dunk contest?" Why didn't he let me go to Iraq to fight for my country? If you really want me to show my face, then let me participate in the Skills Challenge, or participate in the three-point contest, or forget the slam dunk contest, right? ”

Old Nelson waved his hand and shouted vigorously: "Go back to train me, Lao Tzu has his own arrangements, you boys just show me a good look!" ”

Jiang is still old and spicy, the old man is indeed a character, he is asking for a lot of money to pay back on the spot, in fact, he has no intention of letting Billups, Iverson and Morrow participate in these three events, they are just accompanying the prince to study, and his real target is West, Curry and Ibaka.

In fact, how did old Nelson like to play these tricks? Now he is a little interesting in addition to the championship and the honor of the best coach, but Warriors owner Richard is unwilling, All-Star This is a gimmick of how good it is, hype, hurry up and help the team hype, anyway, how many events there are in the game, how many events the team will participate in, as for what kind of mixed shooting contest and H-O-R-S-E shooting competition, that must also participate!

The purpose of the All-Star is entertainment, and it is mass entertainment, and the NBA organizing committee is of course not allowed to appear when the Warriors have to squeeze the quota for this all-round attack, so they began to cut the quota on the old Nelson newspaper in a big way, but the old Nelson reported too much, and the Warriors are now in the limelight, even if they cut off some of the places, there are still three people who want to participate in the All-Star game.

West competed in the Skills Challenge, Curry was in the three-point contest, and Ibaka was in the big dunk contest.

It's also quite pertinent, West is now moving towards a technical stream, he was fierce last season, but his style of play is like a tomahawk, straight and clever. This summer, he studied hard and practiced hard, and now he is a demon knife, if it is not sheathed, it will be bloody!

Curry's three-point ability is also well known, his father was originally a famous sharpshooter in the NBA, Curry's bloodline has the genes of shooting, plus he has taken him to pitch since he was a child, although Curry has only been in the league for half a season, his reputation for good shooting has resounded throughout the league.

Ibaka is more hard-working, his physical fitness is very good, he has a high jump, good hangout, and his physical flexibility is also good, the problem is that he is an inside lineman, although the first two seasons of the slam dunk contest championship were monopolized by interior players, one is still his teammate Chamberlain. But the problem is that Chamberlain's final buckle is symbolic, and that buckle is still discussed by fans and is called 'love buckle', Chamberlain won in creativity, where is he creative now?

In the NBA in January, there were still quite a lot of things that happened, Anthony's unlucky child was not selected as an All-Star, he played too hard against the Raptors, and when he dunked, his fingers were pinned into the Nets and his index and middle fingers were broken, and he left the court in tears, and then began to rest and recover, and it took at least a month and a half to remove the plaster on his fingers.

The Nuggets team is a house leak happened to rain overnight, Anthony injured his finger, the best sixth man JR-Smith was even worse, he drove fast with his friends when he was traveling, but there was a car accident Porsche crashed into Volvo, Smith was fortunate because he was sitting in the back seat and hugging two big-breasted sisters as meat pads, his friend was miserable and died on the spot! Smith was not injured, but because of the death of a friend in a car accident and the marijuana found by the traffic police who came to their car, he now has to go to the local police station every once in a while to report for examination.

Chamberlain also has troubles, that is, the doll's father, Li Zeyu, for a month, he has not been able to fish Li Zeyu out.
