Chapter 177: [Student Association, afraid of it]

When they arrived in Washington, O'Neill and Kobe started to be busy. Guo Xu was more leisurely and could not enjoy the star's treatment.
Sunday is the All-Star game, and the players will arrive in Washington on Thursday. Their first event is not a media interview, but a fan carnival.
The organizers usually rely on a convention center or shopping mall in the city to build a super-large entertainment venue for fans. Carnivals are generally open from Thursday afternoon, half-days on Thursdays and Fridays, and all day on Saturdays and Sundays.
According to the arrangement, some players who played for the city team but failed to be selected for the All-Star will appear at the carnival on Thursday, interact with the fans and participate in the game.
The Wizards are too embarrassed this time. This year ’s mission is to mess up. The management is preparing to rebuild to welcome Michael Jordan ’s comeback. They are planning to make a major exchange in the midterm. In addition to the potential shooting guard Richard Hamilton, the current All core players in the team will be replaced.
Even if they do n’t change, the Wizards ’core to the carnival will not attract fans. No one wants to interact with players like Rod Strickland.
In NBA history, there are players who have been selected to the All-Star team of the year but have not been selected to be an All-Star. There are currently only two people, Rod Strickerland and Drazan Pitrovic.
Height 191CM, 80 kg point guard Rod Strikeland is almost synonymous with "villains". Drunk driving, domestic violence, and harassment of waitresses have all done it, causing trouble everywhere. It is worth mentioning that he is also the "godfather" of future star point guard Kerry Owen.
In addition, the stars have to serve the community. Before officially meeting with the media, some active stars and retired stars will routinely participate in the "NBA Care Action" with the mayor, and carry out social services based on local realities.
For players, compared to dealing with the media, interacting with fans is always easy and enjoyable, and every player loves to do things that can increase fans without playing games. The rookies have no chance to participate in this, and their reputation is not big enough.
The official media opening time of the All-Star weekend is at noon on Friday. Players participating in all-star events will be interviewed by the media in the hotel's banquet hall, known as the All-Star "round table interview." They will be interviewed by 500 journalists from 50 countries around the world during this period.
In addition to training and interviews, big-name players have to be occupied by various brand activities. For example, new shoe launches, new ads premiere, and merchants like to arrange for star weekends. Guo Xu and O’Neill ’s potato chip ads are one of them.
Even if it is separated from the activities of O'Neal and Kobe, Guo Xu is not bored. This weekend is also a class meeting for him. Jason Richardson and Morris Peterson both participate in the rookie game, "Michigan Magic Four" Only Martin Cliffs was absent.
The Pistons completed a deal with the Jazz last week, replacing Cliffs with small forward Quincy Lewis.
This is good news for Cliffs. The Jazz coaching staff knew that Stockton was old and must have a successor. Substitute Jacques Vaughan was clearly unqualified. He and Stockton studied for four years. , There is still little organizational ability.
Cliffs is a point guard who is good at pick-and-roll tactics. Under Sloan, he should be able to play his special skills and play time is also guaranteed.
After the three met, Guo Xu chose the best steak restaurant for dinner, and talked about the rookie challenge to be held tomorrow night.
Because of the butterfly effect caused by Guo Xu, the lineup of the two sides is relatively luxurious, and the 2000 rookies do not look so weak.
Inside: Mark Jackson (Warriors), Dalius Myers (Clippers), Kenyon Martin (Nets).
Swingers: Morris Peterson (Raptors), Quentin Richardson (Clippers), Jason Richardson (Bulls), Mike Miller (Magic).
Guards: Jamal Crawford (Celtic), Guo Xu (Lake).
Retired player Jack Marin served as a first-year coach.
The second-year lineup looks more luxurious, with many future All-Stars.
Inside: Elton Brand (Bulls), Lamar Odom (Clippers).
Swingers: Sean Marion (Sun), Szebiak (Timberwolves), Hamilton (Wizards).
Guards: Byron Davis (Wasp), Andre Miller (Cavalier), Jason Terry (Eagle), Steve Francis (Rocket).
Peterson teased and said: "This time you are cool, there must be a lot of playing time, the team is only a point guard, we have to share the playing time with many people."
Richardson laughed: "To put it another way, you have to challenge the fourth grade point guards by yourself, are you afraid?"
"It only took 40 minutes to play the game. I have the strength. You must pass me more. I want to fight for MVP." Guo Xu said confidently: "And you said the opposite, they are four of them challenge me, should be afraid It ’s them too. "
The biggest advantage of Guo Xu in this challenge is that he has two friends as partners. Someone passed him the ball and he has a good understanding. In addition, the team is good at attacking with the ball, except him, only Crawford, no one grabs the ball.
Crawford is not the famous "Six Six" of later generations. After being traded to the Celtics, he averaged 9.4 points and 3.1 assists per game. As a point guard, he was not very qualified. .
Crawford might break out in the second half of the season because the Celtics traded with the Pacers two weeks ago, sending starting point guard Kenny Anderson and backup shooting guard Chris Kyle in exchange for Two veterans Chris Mullin and Derek McKay.
The Green Army traded to cultivate Crawford. Anderson has an annual salary of 7.52 million this season, averaging only 7.5 points and 4.1 assists, shooting 38.8%, high salary and low energy.
Kenneth Anderson, the No. 1 spotlighter in 1991, was recognized as a brain-dead and wasted. At the beginning of his career, Anderson was one of the key training objects of the Nets, and his year-by-year progress was also seen by the Nets. In the 93-94 season, he was selected to the All-Star team by averaging 18.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, 9.6 assists and 1.9 steals.
After leaving the Nets ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Anderson started a wandering career. He was traded by the Trail Blazers to the Celtics in the mid-97-98 season. This was a silly deal. The Celtics got Anderson, Pope Jones and Zan Tabak, and Billups, Di Brown, Roy Rogers and Jones Thomas were packaged and traded to the Raptors.
The current deal is obviously also a loss for the Celtics, the Pacers need to fight for the championship, to strengthen the weakest No. 1. The veteran Mullin sent by the Pacers is no longer available, and his salary is $ 3.65 million. Mackay is even higher, reaching $ 5.4 million, playing 15 minutes, averaging 2.2 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game.
The Celtics traders can't improve the team's strength, the only role is to clear up salary space, the two veterans both expire after the end of the contract this season, to facilitate future renewals Pierce and Crawford.
If the Greens play well this season, they can also choose to sign big players in the free market for reinforcement this summer.
Although it is only the rookie MVP, but there is a trophy anyway, Guo Xu wants to seize this opportunity to prove himself, the four potential star point guards opposite are better, and one by one is more interesting!
