Super Lord of the Rings

On February 3, the Kings finally lost, losing to the Knicks in an away game. New York fans almost went crazy with joy that night.

Anthony only had 9 points and 5 assists in the game, and was completely outplayed by James. Starting shooting guard Sam Porter was also outplayed by Wang Jun, with only 6 points and 3 assists.

But the Knicks still won, and their heroes were Deron Williams, Stoudemire, JR Smith, Novak, and Chandler.

Deron defeated Curry and Thomas, scoring 23 points and 15 assists. Smith was in trouble and made 7 of 14 three-pointers. He made a direct hit and Wang Jun couldn't defend him.

Novak only played 17 minutes, made 5 of 7 three-pointers, and scored 15 points, which was amazingly efficient.

Chandler guarded Vucevic and interfered with many defenders' shots, scoring 11 points and 18 rebounds, including 8 offensive rebounds.

The most surprising thing is Stoudemire, who made 10 of 10 shots, 1 of 1 free throw, scored 21 points and 6 rebounds, and was a perfect mid-range shooter.

Even veteran inside player Kurt Thomas scored 11 points and also made a three-pointer.

Relying on the terrifying performance of the Knicks' bench players, the Kings' winning streak was fixed at 47 games.

From then until the All-Star Weekend, the Kings did not lose again, with 53 wins and 1 loss, becoming the most exaggerated half-season performance in NBA history.

Players continue to break records. At 28 years and 17 days, James surpassed Kobe's record of 29 years and 122 days, becoming the youngest "Mr. 20,000 Points" in history.

Wang Jun missed this kind of record because he took a break for nearly two seasons. However, he broke another record. At the beginning of this season, he won the best title in the Western Conference every month and is expected to maintain it for a season.

2013 NBA All-Star Game lineup announced.

West starting lineup: Wang Jun, Kobe, James, Durant, Howard.

Substitutes: Curry, Griffin, Westbrook, Harden, Duncan, Eric Gordon, Love.

Wang Jun won the top vote with 1.8 million votes, while Kobe and James both had around 1.5 million votes.

Kobe was selected to the All-Star 15 times, surpassing Karl Malone, Jerry West, O'Neal and Garnett to rank first in history.

Popularity determines the All-Stars. The Lakers are currently ranked 11th in the Western Conference and still have two starters. Being beaten badly is only one aspect.

The media always breaks news that is unfavorable to the Lakers.

For example, someone broke the news that "Warcraft" Howard laughed at Kobe in the locker room, and Kobe was angry and didn't speak.

At the end of last year, Kobe hoped that Warcraft would learn to play through injuries, and Howard responded: "He is not a doctor."

After losing to the 76ers on January 2, Howard and Kobe almost had a fight. The internal strife stemmed from Kobe's response to Shaquille O'Neal's taunt that Warcraft was too soft.

Recently, Kobe also said that he doesn't care whether Howard stays or goes. He only cares about winning the current game, not Howard's future with the Lakers.

An anonymous source familiar with Kobe's thoughts said: "Although the team has stated that it will not send Howard away before the trade deadline, if the management regrets, it will get Kobe's full support."

The conflict between the two has become public. In the last game before the star weekend, the Lakers lost miserably against the Clippers in the same city. After the game, Howard playfully teased a female reporter with a smile on his face. This made Kobe very dissatisfied, and he criticized Howard very seriously.

According to ESPN expert Smith, Howard also disliked Kobe for a long time and found it even more difficult to adapt to Kobe's style of play. During the game, Kobe shot and passed whenever he wanted without any warning, which often left Howard at a loss as to what to do.

In the past, the Magic had clear offensive routines and played team basketball. Most people couldn't understand Kobe's "assist" stunt when he faced people and made jump shots.

In fact, it is very simple to cooperate with Kobe, that is, don't think about receiving passes, just stay in position and grab rebounds most of the time.

There are many leftovers in the Western Conference All-Stars. Lowry of the Warriors was not selected due to injury. Monroe also failed to be selected with 16 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.2 steals.

Nowitzki missed the All-Star selection due to his poor record. The Nuggets are ranked sixth in the Western Conference and Ty Lawson was not selected. There are also Grizzlies DeRozan, Clippers Irving, Trail Blazers' No. 1 rookie Lillard, Thunder's Aldridge and so on.

Yao Ming also lost the selection. He averaged only 12 points and 7 rebounds per game. It is unknown whether it was due to league interference or declining popularity, and he did not become a starter.

The coach of the Western Conference is Adelman.

The starting five of the Eastern Conference All-Stars: Paul, Wade, Paul George, Anthony, and Bosh.

Substitutes: Rondo, Tyson Chandler, Brook Lopez, Jrue Holiday, Luol Deng, Zach Randolph, Gay.

The only remaining gem in the Eastern Conference is Deron Williams. The coaches are more inclined to let Rondo, who has 12.5 points and 10.1 assists, enter the All-Star Game, even if Deron's 17.3 points and 8.4 assists are not bad.

Derrick Rose was seriously injured again and made the Bucks cry. Their record was only eighth in the Eastern Conference and they barely made the playoffs.

Yi Jianlian also failed to be selected as an All-Star. His average of 12.3 points, 7.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game is too average. The performance of losing all five games at the London Olympics affected his and Yao Ming's popularity.

The coach of the Eastern Conference is Mike Woodson of the Knicks. The team overtook the Heat at the last moment and ranked first in the Eastern Conference. It was not just luck to defeat the Kings. The team has a gorgeous lineup.

This time Celebrity Weekend is held in Houston. Before the game even started, the league made a mistake and did something stupid, causing Wang Jun to announce his withdrawal from the slam dunk contest and instead participate in the skills competition.

The reason why Wang Jun gave up defending his title was that the rules of this slam dunk contest were changed again. The league wants to catch people's attention by adjusting the rules.

This time, the Eastern and Western competition mechanism was introduced and became a competition. In the first round, each contestant will complete two dunks, and the judges will score.

The three players from the Eastern Conference performed first, followed by the three players from the Western Conference.

Then, the total points of the three players in the East will be compared with the total points of the three players in the West, and the side with the higher score will receive a 50-point bonus. The players with the highest dunk scores in the first round from the Eastern and Western Conferences will advance to the finals to compete for the "Dunk King".

According to the new rules, if the East and West are tied in the first round of total score comparison, each side will get 25 points. If there is a tie between the players in the first round for a seat in the finals, deductions will be used to determine the winner; if two players each get 50% of the support in the final, deductions will also be used to determine the winner, and the judges will score. Decide the champion.

After Wang Jun read the rules, his first thought was that it was a bit troublesome; his second thought was that it was too troublesome; and his third thought was to go to ******, whoever wants to participate can participate.

David Stern was dumbfounded, but the rules had been announced. If they were to be changed again, it would be like admitting that the plan had failed.

This old man likes to save face and suffer, and does not admit his failure.

The result of the hard work is that no big-name stars are willing to participate in this slam dunk contest, not even a second-rate star. They are all marginal players and role players.

What the NBA and Stern cannot avoid is the indifference with which players treat the dunk contest. The number of contestants has shrunk from the original 8 to 6, and then to 4 last season, and the fans are not very enthusiastic.

Abby was very happy to know that Wang Jun had withdrawn from the slam dunk contest. She smiled and said, "I won't have to watch you do dangerous moves anymore. Don't you want to win three consecutive championships?"

"Who says you don't want to? I will participate again next season and then for three consecutive years." Wang Jun said with a smile.

"..."

Wang Jun hugged the child, shook it, and sighed: "Actually, I'm only interested in the slam dunk contest. If possible, I don't want to participate in this celebrity competition. There is nothing to compete in, and the show activities are too tiring."
