Chapter 223 The same door is used to draw swords to face each other

After the game against the Mavericks, 12/13 of the schedule for the 1-4 season has gone on, and it's time to announce the results of the first round of All-Star voting.

So far, Li Yu has averaged 26.5 points, 12 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game.

This season, the Timberwolves have added Lillard as a powerful scoring point, which has caused Li Yu's scoring to not be particularly explosive, but his assists still remain above double digits.

Therefore, his popularity has increased compared to last season, and there are Hollywood actresses, canvassing for him in the NBA, and Lin Yoona, an actress from the universe country, contributing to his strength.

Coupled with the support of domestic fans, from the beginning of the voting channel to the end of the first round of voting, he has been occupying the position of the top voter.

This year's All-Star voting has changed compared with previous years, and the center position has been cancelled.The All-Star starting position consists of 2 backcourts and 3 frontcourts.

The NBA officially announced the results of the first round of voting.

Eastern side.

James: 621348 votes

Carmelo Anthony 533112 votes.

Old Wolf King Garnett 208246 votes.

back-court:

Dwyane Wade 410925 votes

Rajon Rondo 362613 votes

Western side.

Kevin Durant 595965 votes

Dwyane Howard 424168 votes

Kevin Love 307855 votes

back-court:

Li Yu 749419 votes

Bryant 623603 votes

This is the Eastern and Western Conference starting lineup selected in the first round of NBA voting.

Chris Cannon is unhappy again.

He won more than 30 votes in the first round, less than half of Li Yu's votes

Unless in the subsequent schedule, Li Yu's performance collapsed into the patron saint of drinking fountains, and Chris Cannon played a super MVP performance and became a friend of Hollywood stars, it would be possible to defeat Li Yu and Kobe, and become a counterattack. Western ticket king.

In fact, Chris Cannon has played quite well this season. From the queen bee who took the lead alone to becoming the captain of the Clippers, it can be described as a seamless transition.

So far this season, he has averaged 25.8 points and 9.9 assists per game. Putting it in the Eastern Division, he is a proper All-Star starter. Even in the Wild West, according to the season data of previous All-Star Western Conference starters, it is not too much for him to start.

After leaving the Hornets, he has become the league's top defender, the hottest top star.

He is now at the peak of harvesting all kinds of honors, but at the wrong time, he meets the Great Demon King who turned out to be out of nowhere.

If Chris Pao has read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he will definitely introduce Zhou Gongjin as a confidant.

In the last season, Li Yu won so many votes and became the league's top voter. He would definitely be ridiculed, and even let those celebrities hold a criticism meeting.

In short, it will be questioned whether he is eligible to start the All-Star Game.

This is not what it used to be. Li Yu conquered the fans in the United States with his explosive performance in the playoffs last season.

If he ends up being selected as an All-Star starter this season, there will be few doubts about it, except for those who have no brains.

However, including fans and players, I did not expect Li Yu to win the votes.

Although it is only the first round now, anyone with a discerning eye knows that judging from Li Yu's current momentum, after the three rounds of voting are over, he has only a lot more votes ahead of other players.

Being elected as the league vote leader in the second grade is not a ground-breaking feat. After all, his senior, Grant Hill, beat the Sharks in the rookie season and was elected the league vote leader.

In the second grade, it was even more amazing. His popularity surpassed that of the basketball god Jordan, and he won the All-Star ticket again.

Compared with this old senior who is called Jordan's successor, Li Yu is very likely to become the top voter in the second grade, which is not particularly against the sky.

But there are geniuses every year, and there are only a handful of sophomores who become the top voters, so Li Yu has become the center of public opinion.

The first thing he received was the blessings from his teammates. In fact, the more popular Li Yu was, the more his teammates would benefit as well.

Reasonably speaking, Love's performance can't crush Griffin, but he can rank among the top three frontcourts in the Western Conference, thanks to Li Yu.

Even Lillard, a rookie, has benefited from this. In the backcourt of the West, he ranks very high, even overshadowing the limelight of the backcourt combination created by Mosaic.

His ranking ranks fifth among Western backcourt players, behind Westbrook.

If Paul hadn't been fighting Wei Shen Gui for so many years and accumulated a group of loyal fans, he might have been raped by this little brother.

This is the positive influence Li Yu brought to his teammates.

His friends and younger brothers also sent blessings, thanks to the fact that everyone is under child labor contracts now, there are infinite possibilities in the future, and they are still in the "rebellious" period of blind self-confidence, no one wants to force the team to manage Layer, left to Minnesota, Lin Yu's popularity for prostitution.

Li Yu's fitness buddies asked him for credit, saying that they played a certain role in the voting.

Li Yu did not agree to their training invitation, because the Timberwolves have a very intensive schedule ahead, and there are many strong teams in the playoffs. He needs to recharge his energy and kill the teams that are eyeing the Wolves.

In addition to the congratulations from these people, to his surprise, Duke University officials congratulated him on being a distinguished alumnus of Duke University.

The local newspaper is touting it, like the glorious inheritance of Duke University, Li Yu may become the second All-Star vote champion in the second year after Hill, beating the league superstars.

Now he has become the darling of the basketball world, the most talked about star in the league, and the traffic brought by his words and deeds has made media workers very addicted.

His influence was not limited to the United States. In his home country, basketball became the hottest topic, and sales of sportsweeklies and newspapers skyrocketed.

Sports lovers greet each other when they meet, besides have you eaten, add another sentence Have you voted?
Li Yu's achievements in the NBA have aroused the enthusiasm of the Chinese people for sports, and his influence is even greater than that of Dayao.

He became the vote king, which brought a lot of benefits to the Timberwolves, but of course there were some troubles.

For example, some players publicly stated that before the end of the three rounds of voting, the Timberwolves will be besieged and killed, especially the big devil on the court.

In this regard, the person involved was indifferent. Anyway, if there is no vote king, the Timberwolves will also cause the siege of the heroes.

20 wins and 1 loss, currently the best record in the league, if this record is achieved by the Lakers' f4, or the Thunder's double-minor team, it will not become the target of siege by various teams.

It is really because the paper strength of the Timberwolves is not favored by experts compared with championship teams such as the Lakers and Thunder.

Some celebrities also expressed their views in public.

The Timberwolves haven't encountered a real strong team this season. When they meet a strong opponent, the nature of the Timberwolves' pseudo-strong team will be fully exposed.

Virtue does not match, it is these celebrities who have a consistent evaluation of the Timberwolves.

Faced with these criticisms, the generals of the Wolves responded by training more actively to make the winning streak last longer.

Becoming the champion of the league votes, in addition to making Li Yu's name more widely known, small money is indispensable.

As a signed player of Peak, in the additional clauses of the sneaker contract of both parties, there is already a reward for becoming an All-Star starter.

Peak Company naturally hopes that Li Yu's fame will increase as much as possible, so that the sales of sneakers will become more popular.

The senior executives of the Peak Company are the generation with long-term vision, and immediately sent people to re-sign the additional clauses of the contract with Li Yu, mainly adding two additional clauses.

Elected as the All-Star starter as the league vote king, the Peak Company will offer an incentive of 500 million dollars.

As long as you become an All-Star starter, you will have an incentive of 200 million dollars.

There is another additional clause. After the sneaker contract expires, when the new contract is renewed, Peak will give him a certain number of shares.

The exact amount is yet to be reached.

It is better to leave this kind of business negotiation work to professionals.

Therefore, Li Yu entrusted Schwartz with full authority to negotiate a new contract with Peak.

The reason why Peak Corporation added shares to the additional clauses was, of course, to catch big fish in the long run.

Since ancient times, it has been the icing on the cake that is not as good as giving charcoal in the snow.

Now that they have firmly bound themselves to Li Yu, the benefits they will gain in the future will definitely be more than what they invested.

After a day off, the Timberwolves sat in the East and played against the underdog Magic.

Since Howard the Happy Beast left, the Magic have officially embarked on the road to reconstruction.

All the players in the team were put on the trading window and were up for sale. As long as the price was right, it didn't matter if they were all sent away.

As a result, the team was in a state of panic, and few players played seriously. Since the beginning of this season, they have lost less and won more, and they are rushing to the No. [-] pick.

In this match between the two teams, no one is optimistic about the Magic. Even those celebrities who hope that the Timberwolves' winning streak will end and they will suffer a crushing defeat think that the Magic have no chance.

Basketball pundits, and Wolves supporters, not to mention.

All are optimistic about the Timberwolves, and they will complete a massacre at the Magic's home court.

It was indeed a massacre, but the Wolves were the ones being massacred.

Li Yu's alumnus JJ-Redick went crazy, scoring 5 three-pointers in a single quarter, black and tough Glenn Davis, even doing whatever he wanted inside the Wolves, after the first half of the game, the Magic took the lead The Timberwolves scored as many as 20 points.

Redick, who made six of eight three-pointers, became the most dazzling player in the first half of the game.

Media reporters rushed to interview him.

"Mr. Redick, as far as I know, you and No. 13 of the Wolves are both from Duke University and are disciples of old Coach K.

The Great Demon King occupies the top spot of the league in the All-Star round of voting.

As his senior, what would you like to tell him? "

Redick was silent for a moment, and said with a serious expression: "He is a very good young man, he has used his talent to accumulate super popularity in the league, which is indeed the pride of Duke University.

I have nothing to say, I hope he can exert his strength in the second half, and I wait for him to lead the team to reverse and win. "

Is it because the same door is going to draw their swords against each other?

Li Yu is a very considerate person. Since the alumni want to be abused so much, they want to be turned against the wind.

Then he had no choice but to burst out with difficulty.

With only 10 points in the first half, he scored a large double-double of 45+12 at the end of the game, leading the team to a comeback against the wind and maintaining the winning streak.
