Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left

Remember [New] for a second,! What NBA stars are most afraid of is not retirement, injury, but forgetting.

Many people don't want to be forgotten by fans after they retire, because forgetting means he has no means of living.

You must know that the salary of NBA players in the past was not as high as it is now. In addition, when you were an athlete, you were extravagant, raising a lot of children, and there were various divorces, illegitimate children, and many bankrupt stars.

Historical superstars like Magic, Bird, Jordan, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are okay. Their glory as a player was too dazzling, and they left all kinds of records and famous scenes. It's hard to forget, but some ordinary All-Stars just Not the same.

They belong to the same level of players. They played well in their playing days and were very popular. However, for various reasons, it is impossible for them to reach the level of players like Jordan and Magic. , but getting used to the extravagant days and the temperature of the spotlight, it is difficult to integrate into the life of ordinary people.

At this time, in the NBA circle is the best retirement life, but if you are forgotten, then unfortunately, you can't stay in this circle.

The simplest example is that the Bucks had an excellent leader before Reid in 2000, and he also averaged 20+6 data per game. His name was Wen Baker. Can anyone still remember him?

Even Reid, how many people can remember it in the future?

The nba is so cruel. Why do more and more so-called famous celebrities in later generations keep talking nonsense in front of the media, and even take the initiative to create conflicts? To put it bluntly, it is to make themselves appear in front of the public again and be remembered.

So Michael Jordan's remarks to Zuo Li are already the biggest compliment to most players.

Of course, for Zuo Li, who is determined to have a bigger and broader future, it is not worth being just remembered. After all, it is impossible for him to be forgotten just by virtue of last season.

So as Jordan's biggest black fan, Barkley secretly said that Michael felt threatened.

The fans laughed happily, but, in a few years, it is estimated that they will seriously think: Barkley is right!

...

Zuo Li still stayed in 15 games for 40+ consecutive games. On February 4th, the Knicks ushered in the third game away from the Cleveland Cavaliers. In this game, the Knicks lost very simply and resisted halftime. Was taken away by a wave of 18-5, and finally 108-84, lost 24 points, and the winning streak was ended.

Zuo Li scored 18 points and 8 rebounds in the game, not only was 40 consecutive games terminated, but the number of consecutive double-doubles in the opening game was also explained here.

Of course, Zuo Li was not surprised by such a performance. He had played 15 consecutive games before, with a time span of more than a month. Not only himself, but also the rest of the team had reached the limit. In this game, he only played for 24 minutes. After the end of the break, he did not pursue to continue to expand his record, and he ignored the crazy clamor of the Cavaliers' home fans.

"It's time to rest, we need to look farther." After the game, Zuo Li's remarks can be regarded as the conclusion of the 40+ consecutive career in full swing.

The outside world generally expressed their understanding. After all, Zuo Li's record is already brilliant enough, and even Chamberlain surpassed it. It is estimated that there will be no opponents in the next few decades, and there is hope for others to surpass.

Of course, the fans of the Cavaliers and Lao Zhan are proud. In this game, James played well, with 33 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists. Therefore, some Lao Zhan fans said that Zuo Li was lucky. If the last game was against the Cavaliers, the record is early was terminated.

Zuo Li will not pay attention to this kind of remarks. After all, adding "if" to something will immediately change the taste. This word is only suitable for people who like to entertain themselves.

But just one day later, Cavaliers fans couldn't laugh, because the NBA officially announced the best player in the East and West in January, and has won the 11th consecutively. In December, Zuo Li, the best player in the East, averaged 42.8 points, 15.8 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game in a single month. 5.4 blocks and 0.8 steals, leading the team to an impressive record of 14 wins and 1 loss in a single month, and undisputedly ranked the best in the Eastern Conference for three consecutive months.

And poor old Zhan, despite his good statistics, was still severely suppressed in the second position, which was the second consecutive month that he ranked second.

After learning the news, Lao Zhan's joy of ending Zuo Li's record has been diluted a lot. He has a hunch that he won't be able to win the best of the month this season. How can he compete for mvp!

No, the data has to be refreshed, ah no, it has to go up!

So Lao Zhan called the agent's phone...

At this time, Zuo Li is discussing with D'Antoni to increase the playing time and the number of shots of the bench players in the next game before the All-Star Game.

"Coach, I was too tired from playing before, so I just took this time to recuperate and prepare for the rush after the All-Star!"

"Well, I think so too!" D'Antoni nodded approvingly.

What a good player, other stars are thinking about how to brush data, how to show their faces, look at Zuo Li, he is simply a role model among the stars!

"But don't relax too much, you still have to prepare for the All-Star game," D'Antoni added.

In D'Antoni's eyes, this year's All-Star is simply tailor-made for Zuo Li. The time and place are right and the people are all occupied. At this time, it will be more time to not show his face. Although Zuo Li was enough to show his face last year, this year, There are clearly better chances!

"Yeah! I will! Don't worry, coach!" When it comes to the upcoming All-Star, Zuo Li is inevitably gearing up for it. Yes, he has been looking forward to this year's All-Star for a long time.

Unlike last year, this year the Knicks can be called a bumper harvest. In addition to the previously announced Zuo Li as this year's vote king, the Knicks have many people selected for this trip to Dallas.

First of all, of course, Randolph~www.readwn.com~ As a legacy from last year, this year Randolph was finally selected into the All-Star bench lineup, which is also the first time Randolph has been selected.

On the afternoon when he got the news, Randolph shed more than 400 pounds of tears, crying like a fat man weighing 200 kilograms. The prodigal son turned back, and he finally waited for this day.

At the same time, D'Antoni has naturally become the coach of the All-Star Eastern Conference. Old German is very calm, after all, it is not the first time.

In addition, Curry, Danny Green, and Beverley were selected for the first-year rookie lineup, which is also the most among all 30 teams. In addition, Zuo Li was selected for the second-year, and the rookie The Knicks have as many as three. Players participate.

The three little ones who learned the news were happy and unlovable, how could the boss fight on the opposite side...

In addition, as the defending champion, Zuo Li took part in the dunk contest and skill contest as a matter of course. Surprisingly, Zuo Li was also invited to participate in the three-point contest, becoming the only player who participated in all three events!

When seeing the list, people unconsciously came up with what Zuo Li said in an interview before the end of last season's All-Star Game: "Maybe I will participate in the three-point contest!"

A year later, isn't this coming!
