Chapter 276 Record Night(1/2)
The league also officially announced the voting results for this season's All-Star Weekend, and the final voter is not unexpected... Cough!
Something happened to happen. This year's All-Star Ticket King is no longer Lin Xing.
"Chicago Bulls guard Michael Jordan was elected as the 1998 All-Star Weekend Championship with 1.028 million votes!"
As soon as this result came out, everyone was surprised.
Not to mention those media reporters, let alone Lin Xing, even Danzi himself finds it strange.
Lin Xing has been the voter since her rookie season.
He took his fingers and calculated that he had already made four consecutive ticket kings.
Even in the season when Danzi came back, the vote king was Lin Xing.
It can be said that in terms of popularity alone, Danzi, who retired and made a comeback, could not catch up with Lin Xing.
Especially after the Warriors won two consecutive championships in the past two seasons, Danzi is even more unmatched by Lin Xing.
But in this year's All-Star Voting, Danzi actually defeated Lin Xing and was elected as the vote king.
This means I have to say: It’s strange!
Lin Xing thought it even more strange to the Bay Area—
"In the past two years, the All-Star vote king has won two or three million votes, so why has it been more than 1 million votes this year?"
Not to mention, his question is basically close to the fact of this vote.
The Warriors' press officer Peter Russo is responsible for distributing and collecting All-Star votes at the Warriors' home court.
Therefore, he knew: "It is said that the league's vote counting is very strict this year, and many votes that missed information were excluded."
Lin Xing understood as soon as he heard this: "The alliance is operating in a secret case..."
Lin Xing couldn't help but sigh. Logically speaking, he should be the king of tickets this year.
In this way, he will be the king of votes for five consecutive times.
The five-game king is not a worthy honor, because Danzi once had a history of the seven-game king.
But it was precisely because Danzi had the seven consecutive votes in front of him that the alliance had a reason to take action.
"The old man is anxious, I want to leave something for Danzi."
He has won two consecutive championships in the past two seasons, and now he has been dominated by Lin Xing and his Warriors this season.
It can be said that Lin Xing is in a fierce momentum now.
If Lin Xing really wins three consecutive championships, it would be too exaggerated to say that he would surpass Jordan in three championships.
In these three seasons, Lin Xing not only has three championships and three FMVPs, but he is likely to have three regular season MVPs, one scoring champion, and one Dpoy...
But there are also these honors, even more.
Compared with Danzi, the advantage of Lin Xing is that—
Such as 72 wins in the regular season, 15-1 team-level records at the playoffs, and various youngest records.
But Danzi also has a much more scoring champion than Lin Xing, a record of 7 consecutive votes, and personal data levels such as single-game scores in the playoffs and average scores in the finals.
Even if Lin Xing really won three consecutive championships, Danzi can still rely on a longer career and more accumulation will continue to suppress Lin Xing.
But the problem is, Lin Xing is too young.
He was born on September 11, 1975 and is still under 23 years old.
A player who has completed a three-game championship dynasty at the age of 22, and given him a few more years, isn’t that true to be over Jordan?
David Stern didn't want to see Lin Xing's super Jordan so early, so he started to operate in secret.
Stopping Lin Xing from the five consecutive votes is equivalent to preventing Lin Xing from breaking the record of Danzi's seven consecutive votes.
After all, in this league, Stern has not found the next player to compete with Lin Xing.
As long as Danzi keeps the record of the seven consecutive vote kings, Lin Xing cannot touch the personal data record at this stage.
Even if Lin Xing's honor accumulates to a point that is not much different from Danzi in the future, the two will be tied at most.
"What a pity, Danzi is old..."
Lin Xing knew that Stern also knew that the league's actions would be at most delayed for a little time.
But what if? What if there is another supernova like Lin Xing in the next few years?
Or, it is not impossible for the Mesozoic plum blossoms like Danzi who have experienced various setbacks and emitted the fragrance of flowers after bitter and cold.
The ticket king is gone, but the starting lineup is still there.
Not only is it still here, this year's All-Stars, the Warriors directly occupy two starting places.
The starting point guard of the Western Conference is Lin Xing and the shooting guard is Kobe.
The strange thing that the vote king fell next to him has other explanations, namely—
Kobe scored and left some votes with Lin Xing.
But this explanation is not tenable at all, because in the All-Star votes these days, fans of the defender position can vote twice.
It means that the point guard and the shooting guard count the votes separately, and there is no such thing as Kobe robbed Lin Xing's votes.
The weakness of the back line in the 1990s also led to the situation where the back line votes were very high and the low votes were very low.
After Lin Xing changed to play as a defender, he was able to be even the king of bank votes. He has to admit that there are also reasons for this.
Kobe can also be said to benefit from this.
The Warriors took the lead in the defender, and the forward starts are Carl Malone, who has been in a fierce momentum in the past two years, and Scotty Pippen, who is still popular with Danzi.
As for the center, although Da Meng continued, the Sharks were backed by Luocheng and defeated Mo Ning and the General without any suspense, becoming the starter.
In the East, ticket king Jordan naturally occupied a starting position, and his backcourt partner was Tim Hardaway.
The ability of Xiaozhu to become a starter is due to the weak back line on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is related to the Heat's outstanding performance.
This season, the Bulls are the best in the East.
After the Bulls are the Pacers and the Heat.
Overall, there are only three competitive teams in the East.
Although Grant Hill was in a sluggish position, he still occupied a starting position based on his popularity.
Another location was taken away by Camp, who joined the Bulls from East Travel.
As for the center, Mo Ning and Sharks have both traveled west, and it was originally the situation where Ewing's family dominated.
But in the end, Mutombo completed the turnaround.
"There's no way, who can make the eagle have better results!"
The Hawks' better performance is one reason, and on the other hand, the Knicks have caused too many troubles in the past two years, which has made the league unhappy, and is also one of the reasons.
In short, the All-Star Voting this season has deep traces of league manipulation.
Lin Xing didn't care either. Isn't he the ticket king? If he lost it, he would lose it.
He didn't even care if he lost the starter. In the season of three consecutive championships, all he thought about was-
All-Star Weekend, if you can, just gang up.
He has all the dunk kings and all-star MVPs.
The most important thing now is definitely the three consecutive regular season MVPs, as well as the three consecutive championships and three consecutive FMVPs...
...
As soon as the All-Star voting results were announced, for the general, he had another reason to break the Warriors.
In the 1996 All-Star Weekend, Nelson, who led the team at the West, was the head coach of the Western Conference.
The second year was 1997, and the Warriors were the first again, but because the head coach in the main competition was unable to be re-elected, Old Nelson was suspended for a year.
This season, he is the number one in the Warriors in the West again, and Nelson has no problem of re-election.
This year's All-Star Weekend Head Coach is Nelson again.
The head coach of the All-Star Game has the right to choose a substitute in the main game. It can be said that whoever Nelson chooses will enter the main game.
In the 1996 All-Star, Nelson chose the Madman, which was also the only All-Star journey in his career.
This year, Mooning's data are up to the All-Star standards, and there is no reason for Old Nelson not to choose Mooning.
But the problem is that the competition in the center position of the Western Conference in the All-Star Game is too fierce.
The starting Sharks have been confirmed, and there are also generals, Mo Ning and Da Meng.
Even the Trail Blazers Sabonis has the chance to be selected. After all, Sabonis is in the playoffs, and Sabonis is the leading star of the pioneers, so there is no reason to ignore him.
Four people compete for at most two, but most likely they are one substitute position. The general thinks that his chances are already very slim.
It's normal that there is no All-Star starter. The best team and best defense team in the regular season can only be ranked in the second and third teams, and it is acceptable.
But it is unacceptable to lose the All-Star selection.
