Dunk contest... Chris Anderson was also eliminated in the preliminary round. The six participating players were Chris Anderson and Ginobili of the Supersonics, Fred Jones of the Pacers, Jason Richardson of the Warriors, Ricky Davis of the Celtics, and Stodmeier of the Pistons.

Fred Jones and Jason Richardson entered the finals together. The defending champion Jason Richardson won the slam dunk contest for two consecutive championships in the finals. Fred Jones won the slam dunk contest.

...

This year's All-Star Weekend is quite interesting, and not many people are looking forward to it. Because of this, this year's rookie match played very well, and the overall event day is ordinary but not ugly... In the event, everyone thinks it's pretty good!

At least it's not bad!

In the rookie game, James showed his super talent.

Amare Stoudemire developed his super counterattack ability that was sharp enough to be close to Shi Buddha.

In the Skills Challenge, Balang Davis's fancy ball control after securing the victory was amazing; in the three-point competition, Woshan Leonard explained what good luck is; in the dunk competition, Fred Jones, a sophomore player who averaged 4.9 points, was also a little popular.

These points can be remembered by people because the league's All-Star promotion this year has no longer been as hyped like in previous years. As a result, fans who have too high expectations were disappointed after seeing it.

This year, due to Zhang Hao's brutality in the middle of the season, the league promoted Zhang Hao and the Dynasty team Supersonics during the All-Star Weekend.

If you don’t know, you think the Supersonics have the first record this year, and the whole team will play in the All-Star Weekend together...

Moreover, if the Supersonics players really agree to participate in several more events, not to mention that all 15 people participate in the competition, it is possible that about 10 people will participate in various events.

Now, 8 people have already shown their faces in various competitions.

Soon, on February 15th, the All-Star Weekend "Master" and the All-Star Game match day is here!

On this day, Zhang Hao couldn't be lazy.

I woke up early in the morning to take various photos, and when it was almost noon, I came to Staples Center to participate in the roundtable interview.

24 All-stars participated in the interview together, and the treatment was still very different.

A famously bad personality like Peja, there are only a few Chinese journalists going to interview him, and the reason why some Chinese journalists interviewed him... He is Wang Zhizhi's teammate.

There are two players who have the most reporters around, one is Zhang Hao and the other...

"Tyrant, I heard you are going to join Aix's Source Plan?"

When Nash heard this title, he wanted to hit someone!

But if you hit someone, it will be a real shame.

Swearing is what the reporter wants.

Nash reluctantly and replied: "I like the sneaker design of Yuan Plan. Their sneaker technology and quality control are very good. We are about to complete the cooperation negotiations."

"Are you going to launch Source Plan Tyrant Signature Shoes?"

"… Aix gave me the name of my future signature shoe: Son of Wind! Not a tyrant! Don't make him interested in this nickname!"

On the other hand, Zhang Hao was also asked this question.

It was different from Nash in the original time and space. Nash in the original time and space was popular, and the whirlwind swept the world, but Nash himself did not become a truly super popular superstar because there was no controversy on Nash and he was unable to win the championship in the end... There were many things that restricted him.

But it's different here.

In just half a season, Nash has become a truly popular superstar.

Appearance, strength, extremely beautiful playing style, record... and charming tyrant attributes.

Zhang Hao talked about cooperation with Nash during the offseason, but Nash was too busy at that time and did not reach an agreement. Nash didn't think he had much commercial value. Before, he was on the Trail Blazers, and there were much more negative news than positive ones.

Now that the popularity is coming, the Eastern Conference defender has won the third place in the vote. If Iverson hadn't accumulated popularity for so many years, he would have been killed by Nash.

Several major brands gave endorsement fees of $6 million. In the end, Nash chose Zhang Hao's brand, which predicted that he would succeed, and joined the 'source plan'.

When Zhang Hao talks about this... it's all over to praise the spokesperson.

After all, this is an off-court matter. With the identity of a player, business can be very important, but it can also be irrelevant.

Just like in 2020, it was already a small shareholder of many companies, and its own business, with a total net worth of more than 1.7 billion US dollars and hundreds of millions of dollars in cash, but the identity of a player is just a decorative point. When you get old, you should be criticized or ridiculed, or ridiculed.

Finally, we talked about MVP and various stars.

Zhang Hao is as honest as ever...

The final topic returned to the Pistons, and this time I was asked about Amare Stoudemire.

Amare Stoudemire's violent style of playing, Chinese media nicknamed "Little Overlord" and spread to the United States.

Amare Stoudemire's counterattack style was compared with Zhang Hao at the beginning of his career. They are both high school rookies, and they are all so sharp...

Speaking of this question, Zhang Hao replied: "I like Xiaobawang's playing style very much. He is very good. It really allows me to see when I was young. If my son also played basketball in the future, then I hope my son can have such motivation."

...

In the Romance of Man, Cao Cao just said, "I should be like Sun Zhongmou," and when Zhang Hao came, he became, "I should be like a little overlord."

This is even more domineering than Cao Cao!

These two brothers are not of the same level.

Zhang Hao's remarks caused heated discussions in the country, but in the United States, they had no impact.

Americans basically can't understand these things. Some of them say, "I hope my son is as good as Washington." It's very common.

The little bully reminded Zhang Hao of his counterattack in the first and second grades. Zhang Hao thought of his son playing basketball in the future... It seems reasonable to Americans.

At 8 pm, after a series of activities, the All-Star Game started!

This year's All-Star Game has a clear theme - Western players think that the player with the most All-Star MVP history should have one of them in active service.

The most All-Star MVP times in NBA history are Bob Petit of the Hawks, Bulls and Jordan of the Hawks and Supersonics, both of whom have won four times.

The closest one to these two people in service is Zhang Hao - the three All-Star MVPs in 1996, 2001, and 2002!

The Western Team discussed helping Zhang Hao compete for MVP before the game, and everyone was willing to.

Before he knew it, Zhang Hao was already one of the oldest players among the Western Conference All-Stars!

Cassel, Grant Hill, Zhang Hao, Garnett, and Ray Allen, these five people have been said to be players who entered the NBA 10 years ago.

Now it has come to the mid-term of the first decade of the 21st century, and the five of them have entered the NBA in the mid-term of the last decade of the 20th century.

There is competition between them. Ray Allen and Garnett will definitely compete with Zhang Hao for honor, and Grant Hill is also eager for opportunities. Grant Hill's contract expired in the summer of 2007, but he had the opportunity to jump out of the contract in the summer of 2005. If he was injured, he would definitely drag the money to finish it. The combined 2005-06 and 2007 seasons was $30 million. In Nowitzki's words - this is money that can never be used for a lifetime.

If you are not sure whether you can play in the future, Grant Hill will execute the contract until the end.

But now, Grant Hill has been off for two years and has changed his playing style. Now, in an era of reducing confrontation, he has once again played as a top ball-handling forward...

He also wants to compete with Zhang Hao!

However, regardless of whether you have a competitive spirit or not, there is one thing that everyone agrees with - Zhang Hao is the greatest among their generation players.

None of them!

Wanting to compete with Zhang Hao is just their dignity as a professional athlete.

Competition is one thing, and the status of their generation is another.

The player of the Demon Birds generation has a high historical status.

The 84 generation has a high historical status.

Now, just like the people in the late 1980s in the Demon Bird era began to think about historical status, and the 1984 generation began to think about historical status in the mid-1990s. This group of people, the first to enter the NBA, will soon be 10 years.

If there are several ‘strongest in history’ labels on a player of their generation, they are naturally what they want to see.

Now, people's division of "one generation of players" is still playing in the NBA, and they are divided into four parts.

The Pan-84 generation, the group of geniuses who had basically retired from 1982 to 1986, are now Kevin Willis, Malone and others still playing in the NBA.

The 88 generation, the 87-1992 generation, has begun to fade out of the NBA generation.

The 95 generation, this generation of players from 1993 to 1996, has become a veteran since the 1996th session.

Later, there are the 999 generation players from the 97th to 01st generation who are now becoming the pillar of the league.

The next new generation will have little impact on the league structure, so it will ensure that O'Neal will not be selected as the All-Star starter.

What the players of the 95 generation think is very simple - Zhang Hao is the strongest among their players. If they admit it, they still have to fight for what they should fight for. But if Zhang Hao is the strongest in many aspects in the entire NBA history, then their generation of players often lose to Zhang Hao... It would not be too embarrassing.

There are only 24 players in the All-Stars. The Eastern Conference quickly learned about the idea of ​​Western players.

This...of course they are not happy!

Not to mention, many of the players from the Pan-99 generation who are entering the Mesozoic generation are in the East!

The late-achieving players in the Pan 95 generation, Nash, Jermaine O'Neal and others, are also in the East.

‘Temporary Teammate’ is also a teammate, and it always looks at things differently as an opponent...

‘Zhang Hao should be greater’, ‘I don’t want to see Zhang Hao become greater’, the conflict between the two ideas was revealed to the All-Star Game!

The game was very fierce, more intense than in the past few years, and the competition started just as soon as it started.

Western coach Adelman and Eastern coach D'Antoni, both of them are "romantic" coaches. They didn't expect that in an All-Star Game, they were just coaches of the team of stars. As a result, these teams all wanted to play really and tried their best to make tactical adjustments.

Both of them were very average on-the-spot command, but they couldn't stand the players' greatness.

Kidd from the east holds the tactical board, Zhang Hao from the west holds the tactical board...

In the first quarter, the Western Army was 4 points behind the Eastern Army 27-31. In the second quarter, Zhang Hao successfully started a wave of Kobe's time, but Kobe directly hit!
To be continued...
