Vice President Adam Xiao Hua personally went to Los Angeles and asked Wang Jun for an interview, full of sincerity.Wang Jun would not lose face, so he asked for a small private room in Yuan Hao's harbor restaurant and invited Xiao Hua to dinner.Xiao Hua looks like a university professor, giving people a sense of intimacy, and is the best person to negotiate.He got straight to the point and said with a smile: "Wang, you have been resting for a year and a half, and you are ready to make a comeback this summer" Wang Jun didn't talk nonsense, nodded and said: "That's right, I will definitely come back, but I haven't figured out where to stop next."
Adam, do you have any good suggestions" Xiao Hua scolded in his heart: What a little fox, so I can't ask where you're going, right, He didn't move, and asked rhetorically: "Are you leaving the Bulls to stay in Chicago Isn't it good to be in a big city, you built a dynasty there, and the fans miss you very much." ”"But I don't want to follow the path of Michael Jordan.I want to be comfortable and go to a bottom team. ”Wang Jun sighed.Xiao Hua liked to hear this, his eyes immediately lit up, he gently lifted his glasses, and smiled: "Your idea is not bad, if you can lead a weak team to win the championship, you can prove yourself even more." ”"So, will the league support me to go to a weak team, I'm quite conflicted right now.""
As long as you don't take a pay cut and sign in strict accordance with the regulations, the league will not interfere in any way.We don't support or disagree, it's all up to you. ”Xiao Hua smiled."
Then I'll be relieved."
Go for it, go to the bad team like the Kings and the Warriors.Xiao Hua thought silently in his heart.League officials all think that Wang Jun will choose a team in California, and the Kings and Warriors are the closest to Los Angeles, and they are the core.It is difficult for these two teams to win the championship, and Wang Jun's high score to attract fans can improve the commercial value of the league, and the league wants to see him become a lone hero.If Xiao Hua knew that one of the superstars they were supporting was preparing to give up his hometown team at his peak and hug Wang Jun's thigh to win the championship, I don't know how he would feel.Then, Xiao Hua mentioned the matter of making Wang Jun appear on the Star Weekend and asked him to be the judge of the slam dunk contest.As long as he goes to Dallas, the media will definitely ask where he will come back, but Wang Jun is idle and troublesome, and happily refuses."
I'm sorry, I'm going to be at home and Theron sifting through the script for the next movie."
Unable to persuade him to change his mind, Xiao Hua gave up.He brought back good news to Stern, thinking that Wang Jun was addicted to movies and it was difficult to compete with Kobe, James, Paul, Wade and others with a distraction.The next day, TV5 invited Wang Jun to be a guest commentator in the All-Star Game, and Wang Jun pushed it off for the same reason.As soon as the news spread, it caused an uproar on the Internet.At the "China King Forum", the princes were a little worried, did Wang Jun really not want to play basketball, and was ready to start the Hollywood Development Star Weekend in an atmosphere of doubt and complaining.On the 13th, the league added a new game called the "All-Star Celebrity Game", which was played before the Rookie Challenge.They invited some entertainment stars to play, but they didn't team up with the all-stars.If you don't have a professional person to play, you can't attract many fans.The first-year team in the rookie game upset the second-year, and the Pistons' Evans and Spurs Blair became the V together.The sophomore's Westbrook scored 40 points and was radiant.On Feb. 14, while the Eastern Conference Stars were training, James complained in an interview."
We're still the best in the league this year, but it's unfair that Williams didn't make the All-Star."
James continued: "We have three top-10 three-point shooters in the league and no player is going to the three-point contest.Obviously, we don't get enough respect. ”Stern and others didn't pay attention to James's words, and they were thinking about how to win a big market team.That night, Pierce beat Curry and Billups in the finals to become the new three-point leader.Curry wanted to win so much that he didn't play well and only shot 17 points.There were no new tricks in the dunk contest, only DeRozan scored 50 points on the second dunk, which resonated with the audience.DeRozan scored a total of 92 points on two dunks in the preliminaries, and advanced to the finals with Robinson, who scored 89 points on two dunks.Gerard Wallace and Shannon Brown played disappointingly, and the dunk moves were simple.Especially Brown, this thing and Kobe Bryant have an empty dunk cooperation, there is no difficulty, it is an ordinary dunk, and everyone is stunned when it is completed.That's it, this kind of ball will appear in every game in the NBA, and in the dunk finals, Robinson threw the ball to the rebound, rebounded and caught the ball in the air, completed the turn, and won a lot of applause.DeRozan's second goal made a lot of spectators sit in the backcourt to build momentum, he sprinted forward from the backcourt, that indomitable morale, that resolute expression, so that the fans in the stadium were burning brave boys, go and create miracles.Everyone believed he was going to try something he had never done before, such as jumping from behind the free-throw line for a dunk.Then, DeRozan ran to the basket in one go, and after completing a fairly ordinary two-handed small windmill dunk and landing, he had a "you didn't think of it" underbeat expression, which was quite obscene.The Japanese radio announcer went crazy at the time, shouting: "This year's slam dunk contest should not appear in the NBA, only in Gintama" The final selection results were then announced, and Robinson, who received 51 votes, narrowly defeated DeRozan and won the slam dunk contest championship for the third time in his career.On the 15th, the NBA All-Star Game was staged, and under the guidance of Wade's wonderful performance of 28 points, 11 assists, 6 rebounds and 5 steals, and 12 of 16 shots, the Eastern Stars finally defeated the West 141-139, and Wade also won the Star Game "V".The best performer in the West was Anthony with 27 points and 10 rebounds, while Nowitzki at home scored 22 points and Nash dished out 13 assists.The game is performance-oriented, but the game is not exciting.Wade mimicked Maddie's classic slam dunk."
Warcraft" Howard was the most surprising, not only did he block Anthony on defense, but he even scored a three-pointer on the counterattack.Other than that, there's nothing to be more evocative about.The players were generally unmotivated, especially Gerald Wallace of the Bobcats, who scored only two points on 1-of-3 shooting, and there was no room for a blue-collar player like him in exhibition games.Tickets on the periphery of the All-Star Game were inexpensive, and the stadium of 100,000 people was packed, setting a historical record.Many locals who don't usually have the opportunity to watch the all-stars went to feel the atmosphere together, and then gave a general evaluation of "But that's it." ”According to the media post, more than 15 million people chose to watch Saturday Night Live instead of the NBA All-Star Game that night.As many as 100,000 people watched the game, but the rating was only 38, a 10-year low.The NBA All-Star Game ranked among the four major professional league All-Star Game in the ratings in 2006 and was still on par with the NF's Pro Bowl, and has been the third in the Iron Fight since '07, only better than NH.Third, it seems to be good, the cruel fact is that NH canceled the All-Star Game in 05 due to the shutdown, and in 06 and 10, there was no ice hockey All-Star because of the Winter Olympics, in other words, NH attaches much less importance to the All-Star Game than the other three major professional leagues.After David Stern looked at the stats, he had to admit that they had to get Wang Jun back quickly, and the NBA had become sluggish since his retirement.s:
