The game between the Eagles and the Bulls was shocking, and the Bulls' retaliation against Liu Mang was too deliberate.

However, fans and the media always observe the behavior of players from a God's perspective and feel that how they should play is correct.

But if the players can really play the ball correctly, there will be Larry Brown who will waste Milicic, Jordan will waste Kwame Brown, and Eddie Curry will be a waste of talent... and so on.

Appear?

Players are also human beings and have their own emotions, likes and dislikes.

This is also the most interesting thing about the NBA, there are always unexpected situations.

He easily won 7 consecutive victories, but Liu Mang was not feeling well.

The average points per game dropped from 36.7 to 36.4. It takes at least 55 points per game to make up for it!

Although I got the task of giving a thank-you gift to the Bulls and won 2,000 superstar points for the second time in a row, my hatred towards the Bulls became even deeper, and I will continue to abuse them next time!

At worst, if you don't score, you're just being abused!

Liu Mang really didn't want to, the Bulls were just taking revenge on him! To take revenge on him for the last massacre!

"I will remember this grudge!"

…

The day after playing the Bulls, on February 5th, at 3 p.m., the All-Star substitute lineup was announced.

Stu Jackson was announced as the visiting team's Eastern Conference All-Star substitute.

Vince Carter of the Nets, Chauncey Billups and Ben Wallace of the Pistons, Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O'Neal of the Heat, LeBron James of the Cavaliers, Hawks

The team's Rasheed Wallace and other seven players were selected to the Eastern Conference All-Star bench.

Together with Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady, and Kwame Brown, the Hawks have a total of 4 players selected for the All-Star Game.

After the Eastern Conference All-Star substitutes were announced, the Western Conference All-Star substitutes were not immediately announced. Instead, it was announced that Chauncey Billups would miss the All-Star game due to injury, and fellow Pistons' Chris Bosh was selected as the All-Star substitute.

line-up.

Vince Carter also missed the All-Star game due to injury, and Darko Milicic of his old team, the Raptors, was selected as the All-Star substitute.

In the West, Steve Francis and Ray Allen of the SuperSonics, Amar'e Stoudemire and Shawn Marion of the Suns, Richard Jefferson of the Rockets, and the Mavericks

Dirk Nowitzki and the Spurs' Manu Ginobili were selected to the Western Conference All-Star reserve team.

Ray Allen has missed several games due to a knee injury and will not play in the next games before the All-Star Weekend. Ray Allen accepted the team's suggestion to withdraw from the All-Star Weekend main game. He will

Teammate Rashard Lewis was selected to the All-Star reserve team instead.

After the tactical training in the afternoon, the Eagles players watched the live broadcast of the announcement of the All-Star substitutes in the lounge.

In the morning, the Eagles received notice that Rasheed Wallace was selected to the All-Star reserve team.

Billups, Carter, and Ray Allen informed the league in the morning that they would withdraw from the All-Star Game due to injuries, so when the substitute list was announced in the afternoon, David Stern had already decided on three players.

A candidate for an alternate position.

Both the Suns and SuperSonics had three players selected to the All-Stars, which made Liu Mang sigh that it was so easy for counterattack teams to get recognition in awards. This was the case in his rookie season. Even if he was not selected as a normal All-Star at that time, he was a big player.

In addition to him, Ratliff, Raheem, and Jason Terry of the Eagles were also selected as All-Stars.

Rasheed Wallace came to the Hawks for two years and was selected to the All-Star Game both years. However, he played for the Trail Blazers for eight years before being selected to the All-Star Game twice.

After receiving the trophy, Rasheed Wallace was so happy that he showed his iconic devilish smile, which scared the teammates next to him and ran away.

The league was very efficient and prepared in advance. Not long after the official live broadcast announced the All-Star substitute lineup in the afternoon, league officials sent the trophies of the Hawks' four All-Star players to the Phillips Center.

After Liu Mang took photos with the league officials, he couldn't help but play with the round trophy every time.

It looks very similar to the All-Star MVP trophy, but the base underneath is very small, and it says 2003-2004 All-Star Game Ace Liu.

There is a long string of words underneath the All-Star MVP trophy, and the base is much larger.

Of course, compared to Jordan's one, the base of the regular All-Star MVP trophy is pitifully small.

The Eagles were also prepared in advance to hold a press conference to announce four All-Star players.

Generally speaking, the press conference went smoothly without any surprises. Kwame Brown was asked a few questions, but he was more obedient than Liu Mang and answered exactly according to the answers given by the press officer, which made the media feel bored.

This is not the first time Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady, and Rasheed Wallace have been selected to the All-Stars. Although they attach great importance to being selected, they put it aside after being selected.

Other players on the Hawks also congratulated him. It would have been impossible for others to be selected as All-Stars.

Originally, Jason Terry looked away when he saw that he was not among the substitutes. O'Neal Jr., Pierce, Arenas and others all failed to be selected. What else could he look away from? Knowing that he had been selected to the All-Star once

On weekends, he still relied on his good record at that time, and the sixth man's statistics and the record of his team as the sixth man are always unpopular among the All-Star substitute candidates.

This situation has been going on for a long time. Even Bill Walton never made it to the All-Stars when he was playing as the sixth man. What can Jason Terry say?

but!

Liu Mang pulled Jason Terry aside before the press conference: "Jason, it is not impossible for you to be selected for the All-Stars next time. If we win two consecutive championships, you will definitely have a chance to be selected for the All-Stars next season.

But the chances of you hitting the sixth man are slim, so you have to make a fuss!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Is it making trouble?" Jason Terry asked for the answer.

"Do you have any younger brothers or sisters in your family?" Liu Mang asked.

"Of course, but what does this have to do with it? Let my younger brothers and sisters help me canvass votes? Oh, they are not good children. It would be nice if they don't smear me." Jason Terry didn't understand what he meant.

"No, you helped take care of your younger brothers and sisters when you were a child. When feeding them, did you feed them because they were crying and hungry?" Liu Mang asked.

"Of course, they can't speak. They must have cried before I knew they were hungry." Jason Terry still didn't understand.

"That's right. As the saying goes, children who cry are fed by milk. If you don't remind those coaches how good you are as a sixth man, how could they think of selecting you into the All-Stars?" Liu Mang was originally

I was joking with Jason Terry, but after talking about it, I believed it...

And Jason Terry believed it too!

Crying children will get milk! Jason Terry believed Liu Mang’s lies...

During the interview, Jason Terry fired: "I'm not targeting a certain player who was selected for the All-Stars. They are all qualified to be selected for the All-Stars. I just don't understand why I lost the selection. We have the best record in the league.

For the team, my scoring average ranks second on the team and 33rd in the league. Some young players who have been selected for the All-Stars, do they have better statistics than me? Or is the team's record better than mine? I think it's too

It’s not fair…”

The media didn't expect that the person who would dig out the news would be Jason Terry!

…

…

Jason Terry's words gave the fans an "argument". Originally, there had been constant complaints after the All-Star substitute list came out.

The alliance’s attempt to praise the 03 generation is too eye-catching!

Bosh is okay. Although the Pistons' scoring leader is Hamilton, who averages 20.0 points per game and is more qualified to replace Billups as an All-Star substitute. Bosh is also qualified. He averages 18.7 points and 9 rebounds per game in the Eastern Conference.

He is also one of the best among forwards. Jermaine O'Neal has been suspended for so many games this season. It is no problem for Bosh to be selected as an All-Star substitute.

But Milicic's 14 points, 7 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2.2 blocks are pretty good. There are indeed few powerful insiders in the Eastern Conference, but the record is too bad. The second-year center of a bad team was selected as an All-Star substitute. What do you think?

Why is it unreasonable?

Of course, no coach voted for him. David Stern appointed him when Carter retired. This further exposed the league's strong support of the 2003 generation.

Now that Jason Terry is yelling about unfairness, fans have found an argument and have another place to attack David Stern.

But David Stern doesn't care about these criticisms. These top five players in the 2003 generation all have the potential to become first-line stars in the league, and they have already begun to show their strength.

The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. One day when these young players become players who dominate the league, who will remember the early praise? What they remember is how good they were when they were selected as All-Stars in their second year.

And there is a reason why David Stern praised the 2003 generation. The trend of continued weakness in the Eastern Conference is still spreading. Four of the top five picks in the 2003 generation are in the Eastern Conference and may be the future pillars of the Eastern Conference teams.

Although David Stern has been criticized for many things, he has done his best for the league.

…

The league's strong promotion of the 2003 generation has caused heated discussions, but there is one person in the top five picks of the 2003 generation who has triggered discussions among fans.

The top five picks of the 2003 generation, the No. 1 pick, the No. 2 pick, the No. 4 pick, and the No. 5 pick were all selected to the All-Star reserve lineup, only Anthony was missing!

Moreover, this All-Star Weekend was held at Anthony's home stadium, the Pepsi Center in Denver. The other four top five picks of the 2003 generation all entered the All-Star Game, but Anthony did not.

Anthony was unhappy when he didn't receive a notice from the league in the morning, but when the original list of Eastern Conference All-Star substitutes came out in the afternoon, the only one in their class was James and Wade was selected as an All-Star substitute, and Anthony felt balanced.

James' statistics are extremely good, and his record is not particularly bad, which is acceptable. Wade's record in the Eastern Conference is third, ranking second in the Eastern Conference, and Anthony can't compare.

Anthony can accept both of them.

But when the two lists of Eastern Conference All-Star substitutes were announced, Anthony felt unbalanced.

Why was he among the top five of the 2003 generation and the other four were selected, but he was not?

When the Western Conference All-Star reserves were announced and Ray Allen was announced to have withdrawn from the game, Anthony's eyes lit up again. Could it be that he was going to be selected?

Then I heard the name of Rashard Lewis. At first, Anthony felt that he was in good company. Neither Milicic nor Bosh made the All-Star list.

Who knew there was no one to accompany him!

Everyone else was selected for the All-Stars, but he was the only one who was not selected!
