The head coach of this year's first-year team is Doug Collins and the assistant coach is AC Green. Both are players.
Collins, who was born in 1951, has more seniority. When he was a player, he played for the 76ers with Julius Erving and was selected to four All-Stars. Later he started as a college basketball assistant. In 1986, he served as the head coach of the Bulls. He accompanied the God of Basketball through his prime years and helped the God of Basketball gradually grow into the number one player in the league. In 1989, he was fired because he was unable to help the God of Basketball surpass the Pistons in the playoffs.
It is worth mentioning that starting in 1995, he became the head coach of the Pistons. After working for three years, he grew up with Grant Hill, the successor to the basketball god. Under his leadership, Hill became the top vote-getter and once topped the regular season MVP prediction list. He also became the head coach of the All-Star Game in 1997. However, after 1998, after Hill was injured, he was fired.
It wasn't until 2001 that Jordan joined the Wizards and brought this head coach with the "Fulong Destiny" to Washington. Doug Collins lasted two years and was fired as Jordan retired for the third time.
Now, he is a commentator and a talker. Work at MSG Network. A very familiar name, right? It's a television channel owned by James Dolan.
The league invited him to coach the rookie game this time, somewhat valuing his 'Fulong fate'. In his life, he is best at bringing swingmen to the top. LeBron James, the league's current favorite, happens to be a swingman with great potential for the top spot.
Assistant coach AC Green was a very good championship puzzle piece as a player. He was known as the Iron Man and Pat Riley's confidant. An important member of the Lakers show-time period, he was elected to the All-Defensive Team and an All-Star starter.
Unlike his former teammate Magic Johnson, who had promiscuous relationships with men and women, he is a devout Christian. To what extent is Christ? Not only did he quit smoking and drinking, he even refused to spray champagne into the camera after winning the championship. Moreover, he is the only one in the NBA. He also established the AC Green Youth Foundation in 1989 to advocate abstinence before marriage.
In 1985, a famous Lakers promiscuous superstar sent a sexy woman to seduce him and test the purity of his faith. As a result, he resisted temptation and his faith shone brighter.
AC Green is indeed a ruthless person in this regard. He was born in 1963, entered the NBA in 1985, retired in 2001, and only got married in 2002. This shows how firm his faith is and how great his girlfriend Veronique is.
And it became reasonable for him to keep a straight face towards Su Xi and refuse Su Xi to leave the training ground early.
There will still be some tactical training in the All-Star Rookie Game. Generally speaking, it is just a few simple runs after taking pictures, and the head coach will arrange a few familiar tactics that everyone knows based on the characteristics of the players, and go through the motions.
However, AC Green had to keep Su Xi on the court.
In contrast, Doug Collins, who was responsible for taking care of James, was very kind and let James go to attend business events early.
This move made many first-year players realize that Suhi's rookie game was going to be bad this time.
They all chuckled.
This lucky guy finally hit a soft nail.
How could someone like AC Green like a playboy like him?
People only break the law at the age of 39 because of their faith. If you are a newbie and have sex with two Hollywood female stars at the same time, how can he not teach you a lesson?
"Jack, you are a good defensive player. You should focus on defense. If you vent too much off the court, you will lose your performance on the court, and you will never be able to achieve what you should be." high."
After there were fewer people in the arena, AC Green took the initiative to chat with Su Xi. Mainly I want to impart some personal experience to Su Xi: "You are a good kid, and I hope you become better. If you were an arrogant person, you might have left long ago. You are a hot star now, There is no reason to take orders from me, a retired player who has long since lost his influence."
Forehead….
Su Xi didn't expect to leave directly.
"Sir, the other players have almost left. My boss is going to shoot a commercial soon, and many staff members are waiting for him. If you delay one minute here, hundreds of staff members will add up to hundreds of minutes." Mike O'Connell Na came over and he put pressure on AC Green.
AC Green is a decent man, and although O'Connor seems arrogant and impatient, he has a point.
I can't waste so many people's time.
"Go, Jack! You must remember that sex is the root of all troubles, and abstaining from sex is cultivation!"
Before leaving, AC Green also warned Su Xi.
Su Xi smiled politely and left.
Mike O'Connor followed Susie a few steps, then turned back. As a former Nevada cannon, he is an adult superstar. On this topic, he couldn't help but tell AC Green: "Man, although I don't quite understand why you are doing this. But I want to tell you, if you want to completely quit sex, you can indulge in sex. After that, After a while, you will find that you are completely withdrawn, just like I am now."
O'Connor shared some personal experiences.
As for whether AC Green accepts it or not, that is his own business.
…
Su Xi shot all the advertisements she had accumulated in one go, and most of the workload was not high. After all, the advertisement just wants Su Xi’s face to appear with the product, and at most it wants him to play basketball.
This is the fastest time Su Xi has made money. Together, these domestic and foreign advertisements have brought him more than 10 million US dollars in income.
Although Su Xi is already very rich, he still feels that the speed of making money is amazingly fast.
However, money is spent faster.
Huang Xiaoman told Su Xi that she planned to use this money, plus some of Su Xi's previous deposits, to buy the equity of a co-founder of Tengxun, and everything had been negotiated. Approximately 2.6% of the company's shares.
Fuji Xun is seeking to go public. But no one knows what will happen after the listing. The Internet is a high-risk emerging industry. Even the founders have never seen so much money. With fifteen million US dollars sitting here, who wouldn’t be confused? Moreover, after listing, the stock will be locked for a period of time. Although the company's current estimated value is HK$6.3 billion, no one knows what will happen next.
Su Xi completely agreed with Huang Xiaoman's opinion, and he began to plan to take out a short-term loan, and he wanted to invest the money in another domestic Internet company.
For Suzy, it was an adventure.
But he enjoyed the adventure.
After being baptized by the Internet by the SS Party and the SJ Party, he deeply realized that the Internet would become a major trend in the future, and the country was developing crazily and had a large population. This was a profitable trend that could be seen at a glance.
Of course, here in the United States, he will not give up looking for good investment projects. But most of them are based on small angel round investments and cast a wide net.
…
The rookie game is coming soon.
When Suzy entered Staples Arena, she ran into Hilary Duff.
Duff is the guest performer in tonight's rookie competition. She is loved by teenagers. When she sees Su Xi, she greets her warmly. "Hey Jack, how's things going with Scarlett lately?"
Su Xi smiled awkwardly. It cannot be said that there is no progress.
"I've heard you sing, and I think there's a song in my new album that's particularly suitable for you. Do you want to play it together?" Hilary Duff invited Su Xi.
Su Xi thought for a while: "Okay."
"Then leave your contact information."
The two left each other's phone numbers.
Staples Arena was packed with people tonight.
Although many people say that the Rookie Game is the appetizer for the All-Star Game, this year's Rookie Game has gathered so many potential rookies who will be super giants in the future, so the attention is very high.
TNT and ESPN simultaneously broadcast the game to viewers across the United States.
TNT's ratings were higher because they had already announced that Kenny Smith would make good on his promise during the All-Star Weekend to kiss a jackass' buttocks and wear pink lipstick.
However, they focused on the halftime of the All-Star Game.
Tonight, their four commentators are: Jim Durham, Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley, and Stephen Kerr.
Before the game started, they made two predictions.
Jim Durham and Kenny Smith think the sophomores will win as always because they have more experience.
Charles Barkley and Stephen Kerr thought the first-year class would win because the 2003 class was far more talented than the 2002 class, and they had at least four players who could become league superstars in the future.
Durham and Smith believe that the players who will win the rookie MVP will be Stoudemire and Ginobili.
Stephen Kerr believes that the rookie MVP is LeBron James, and Barkley firmly chooses Suzy the Lamb.
This caused the other three to tease him.
"Charles, you might as well change your name to Charles Sue Buckley."
"I don't think Suzy the Yang will play seriously in the rookie game at all. He is an All-Star starter."
"His rookie teammates won't give him face. He can't even hope to get the same tactical status as in the Pacers. They are all the proud ones here."
"If Susie wins the MVP, I will not only kiss the male donkey's buttocks, but also kiss his mouth. Charles, do you dare to bet with me? If Jack does not win the MVP, you will accompany me and kiss the male donkey. Do you dare?" "
Smith is a bit broken.
Buckley was not fooled at all. He shook his hand and said, "I don't really want to see you kiss the donkey's mouth."
At this time, the entrance ceremony for the rookie game has also been completed.
When Su Xi came on the stage, Los Angeles gave him the biggest cheers in the audience.
Many of them were screams from girls. There was even a clear-cut confrontation in the arena: Long live SS! Long live SJ!
The game starts soon.
The starting lineup of the first-year team is: Su Xi, Wade, James, Anthony, Kaman.
The starting lineup of the second-year team is: Ginobili, Jaric, Boozer, Stoudemire, Yao Ming.
James stepped forward and Yao Ming jumped the ball: This was a deliberately arranged showdown between the top picks.
Yao Ming defeated James easily, Jaric dribbled the ball through half court, and Su Xi did not press defensively.
He gave Jaric space.
The All-Star Game is all about having fun.
Jaric did not play in singles. He passed the ball to Yao Ming. Yao Ming singled out Kaman and turned around to hit a jumper.
After Yao Ming scored, Kaman went to the basket to serve. When Su Xi stretched out his hand, he passed the basketball to James.
James dribbled the ball across half court, quickly got to the basket and completed a layup.
Su Xi started the process of playing soy sauce. He played for 5 minutes and only picked off one rebound. He launched an attack and reached the basket to complete a dunk. Others did not touch the basketball.
"The first-year team is targeting the little sheep Susie." Barkley said angrily: "They are jealous that Susie got the All-Star starter faster than them. Especially LeBron James, he couldn't accept that after Jack was traded, On the contrary, he was more successful than him."
"Why can't these players accept that Susie is highly praised by fans in the entertainment industry and uses non-basketball means to enter the All-Star starting lineup? Charles, you know better than anyone else that Jack's All-Star starting lineup is not glorious. He does not rely on strength. Typed up,” Kenny Smith said acidly.
"I don't think so. Jack's personal data and team record combined are the best among all rookies this year. He is certainly qualified to represent the first-year All-Star starter."
Buckley argued.
"So, who can he compare to, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, or Dwyane Wade? To be honest, if Hinrich is placed in the Pacers lineup, I would think Hinrich It won't be any worse than him," Kenny Smith said.
"Before Jack left the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers were the top four in the Eastern Conference and are now tenth in the Eastern Conference. Do you think LeBron is better than him? Have Cameron and Wade broken any historical records? Jack is this year's triple-double king and steals king. The first super rookie in history to have a quadruple-double in the opening game." Barkley listed the data.
"I'm talking about potential, you know? Talent potential!" Smith always has a reason.
Su Xi came off the court at the fourth minute and 32 seconds.
He had nothing to do with 2 points and 1 rebound.
He felt that the All-Star Game was really not fun and not suitable for him. Because no one was defending, he was too embarrassed to defend.
In terms of offensive performance, he is indeed not as good as several other rookies.
Therefore, he took the initiative to apply for dismissal.
He knew that these temporary teammates were jealous of him and deliberately isolated him. But he didn't take it seriously at all, just let it go, it was just an exhibition match anyway, it didn't matter whether he played or not, just save some energy.
Besides, weren't Kobe and Jordan also isolated back then?
Su Xi reclined on a chair and closed her eyes to rest. It was really hard to shoot the commercial last night.
Just when Su Xi thought that this game would be so uneventful, some trouble came to her.
The rookie game is divided into two halves, each playing 20 minutes.
This is an NCAA rule.
Because both teams only have 9 players, everyone has sufficient playing time.
LeBron James has been left on the court. Doug Collins is indeed a man with a destiny of supporting the dragon. He played very well tonight. He has to shoot and shoot, break through and break through, and pass and pass... He His talent is indeed very good.
Moreover, under this intensity of defense, his ball handling became silky smooth.
The most eye-catching performances of the sophomore team are the two forwards, Boozer and Stoudemire.
With Abramovich taking a rest, Stoudemire became the most important offensive arrow in the second year.
Stoudemire averaged 13.5 points and 8.8 rebounds last season and was elected Rookie of the Year. This season, his data has improved by leaps and bounds, reaching 20.6 points and 9.1 rebounds. In 2004, 20 points was a rarity, especially in the paint. Those who could score 20+ were rare.
That's why he was particularly angry that he didn't make the All-Star Game.
Stoudemire has a certain ability to hold the ball, and his face-to-basket singles skills are beginning to take shape, and some of his skills are very delicate. At the same time, he is a player with extremely strong physical fitness.
Basketball experts believe that he is physically stronger than Kenyon Martin and has great offensive potential. He is a Shawn Kemp-level violent forward.
After Stoudemire completed two powerful dunks in a row in the 15th minute, he yelled to the sidelines: "Suzy the Lamb, you should give me that damn All-Star starting spot."
Su Xi opened her eyes, and Stoudemire looked over provocatively.
At this moment, he secretly made an incredible move. He stretched out his hands to pull his eyes. Make a squinting gesture.
This gesture is extremely provocative and is a standard racial slur.
Su Xi then stretched out two middle fingers and gave them to him.
Then, he walked over to Doug Collins and said, “I’m going to play!”
kindness?
Collins didn't react.
Susie then told him: "I'm going to play."
"OK."
Collins didn't hesitate.
He came with a mission.
Although the NBA asked him to come here, it wanted to use his "Fulong destiny" to give James a hand. In fact, he did just that, even letting James have the ball.
However, his boss told him: If Jack has any request, satisfy him.
Although Doug Collins didn't understand why his boss said such things, his boss was always weird. James Dolan is the most elusive owner in the entire NBA.
However, he is very generous.
He casually gave Collins a check for $20,000 to have fun in Los Angeles.
Originally, I wasn't that happy. With this $20,000 check, he was extremely happy.
So, when Su Xi said he wanted to rest, he quickly replaced Su Xi and asked Su Xi if she wanted to put on a coat. February in Los Angeles is a bit cold.
Now Susie says he's going to play.
Without any hesitation, Collins agreed. Then he asked: "Which position do you want to play?"
"Power Forward."
Susie pointed the finger directly at Stoudemire.
Collins also quickly pointed his finger at Chris Bosh, indicating that he should take a rest.
Su Xi walked to the technical table.
boom!
James shoots the iron.
Stoudemire got the rebound and handed it to Ginobili. Ginobili went to the frontcourt, picked and rolled with him, passed the basketball to him, and he shot a jump shot from the high post... Wow!
hit.
Stoudemire scored his 19th personal point.
At this time, the sophomore team led by 6 points, 52:46.
If this trend continues, there will be no suspense about winning as a sophomore, and there will be no suspense about Stoudemire being elected MVP.
But, beep!
The whistle sounded.
Suzy comes on stage.
He went directly to Stoudemire.
Stoudemire sneered: Well done! I'm worried that I won't have a chance to deal with you, so let the whole world open their eyes and see who is worthy of being an All-Star!
