NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Time flies, and it is mid-February, two-thirds of the season has been played, and the All-Star Weekend is here.

During this two-thirds of the schedule, the Bobcats have maintained the league's first record, playing 54 games, and have only lost seven games so far.

It turns out that many fans think that the joining of Daben will make the Bobcats' record decline. After all, Daben seems to be completely incompatible with Ao Pang.

But as time goes by, there are no more fans with this view. Ben and O'Brien are more than compatible on the court. If you don't take into account the poor free throw ability of these two people, they are almost the most powerful pair of twin towers in NBA history. .

After these two form the twin towers, they must be extremely strong on the rebounding side. Even the Philadelphia 76ers' Yao Ming Stoudemire twin towers can't take advantage of the two of them.

Not to mention the defensive end, these two can completely lock down the opponent when they encounter those standing inside teams.

On the offensive end, Daben does not have much offensive firepower, but Ao Pang's offensive ability is superb, and the offensive firepower of this pair of twin towers is no worse than that of other teams' twin towers.

The most important thing is that Daben didn't know what medicine he took wrongly. After he returned to Kongbu's hands, his passing ability suddenly improved several levels, and now he can often feed Opang at the basket.

Daben feeds Ao Pang with pancakes, this scene Kong Bu didn't even dare to think about before, it's so weird.

After the arrival of Big Ben, although Bosh started fewer games, he did not fail to benefit.

The timing of his appearance is when the opponent replaces the main force, and the opponent he faces is weaker, so his personal data not only did not decrease, but also increased a little.

Hill still maintains the stable performance of the league's number one small forward.

Hinrich is nominally the team's point guard, but now he is more and more like the Pistons Hamilton. He just keeps running around the court, looking for open shots, and he is also strong enough on the defensive end.

The rookie Iguodala's performance is fully in line with Comb's expectations, defending the three players of Tracy McGrady, Kobe and Carter, and can't completely suppress the opponent, but facing Deer King Reid or Ray Allen, Iguodala's defense is quite good. oppressive.

In addition, the performance of newcomers Josh Smith and Martin Jr. is also remarkable. If Kongbu is willing to trade them during the offseason, he will definitely be able to get a lot of bargaining chips.

Brent Barry, who has just been traded for a short time, is now an important part of the Bobcats' offensive end. He and Martin Jr. formed a combination of scoring bandits in the backcourt of the bench, which made some underdogs frightened.

The game had already entered garbage time, and the two sides replaced the substitute players to finish the game. As a result, after Kumbu replaced Barry Jr. and Martin Jr., these two guys can sometimes play a bigger point difference than the starters.

The defense of these two is not very good, but in terms of offense, the sum is not necessarily worse than Iguodala and Hinrich.

This year is the eighth year of Kumbu's coaching. This lineup can't be said to be better than the previous seven lineups, but this lineup makes Kumbu feel at ease, almost everything is missing.

Of course, there are also disadvantages. The free throws of Ao Pang and Daben are really bad, almost at the level of the bottom one and the bottom two in history. At the same time, the free throw was out of order, and Kumbu was in trouble.

Fortunately, such coincidences do not happen often, and Kumbu has only met him once so far.

With the league's No. [-] record, Kumbu became the head coach of this All-Star Game as a matter of course.

When Kumbu saw the starting lineups of the East and West, he couldn't believe his eyes.

The starting lineup for the East is Yao Ming, Big Zhi, Hill, Carter and Iverson, and the substitute All-Stars are Big Ben, Oban, Marion, McGrady, Bearded Davis, Parker and Bus.

Almost all of the twelve players came from those powerful teams.

The Bobcats selected three players, Hill, O'Pang and Daben. O'Pang is a bit sad, because Yao Ming has a fan base of China, and after he arrives in the East, he can only play as a substitute.

The Knicks also have three players, Big Zhi, Bus and Marion. The frontcourt combination of these three has been compared with the frontcourt combination of Green Kai back then.

The Raptors' backcourt duo was selected.

The Philadelphia 76ers also selected three players, namely Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady and Davis.

Iverson, who plays for the Magic, has an amazing fan base. Even though the Magic's record this year is at the bottom, he still firmly occupies a starting position.

Twelve players come from five teams, which means that there are ten teams in the East and none of the All-Stars appeared.

What is even more unbelievable to everyone is that these twelve players have one thing in common, that is, all of them have played under Combe.

Either it was cultivated by Kumbu when he was young, such as the mobile Great Wall trio, such as the Raptors cousins, such as rookie FMVP Marion.

Either players who became Kumbu at their peak, such as O'Pang and Iverson.

There is also Hill, who almost ruined his career due to injuries, and has a second spring in the hands of Combe.

When playing the All-Star game a few years ago, there were at least one or two only players who were not coached by Konbu. Now it’s good, all the All-Star places in the East have been occupied by Konbu.

In fact, under normal circumstances, both James and Wade of the 03 platinum generation were also selected as All-Stars this year.

It's a pity that the competition in the East is too fierce now. James' statistics this season are indeed good, but the team's record is too bad, and the competition for the forward position is fierce. He should have started, but now he doesn't even have a substitute.

It is reasonable to think that even Pierce, the head of Green Kai, was not selected for the All-Star, and James was not selected.

Wade's situation is similar. He was selected as an All-Star mainly because McGrady joined the Rockets in the West at that time, and there was less competition in the East.

Although McGrady is still being traded now, he is still in the East, which makes the competition in the East still extremely fierce.

The eastern side has become the world of Kumbu alone, and the situation in the western side is actually similar.

The starting lineup: Er Pang, Duncan, Garnett, Yi Jianlian and Kobe, and the substitute all-star lineup is Gerald Wallace, Nash, Nowitzki, Ginobili and others.

That's right, after Er Pang was traded to the West, it took half a season to actually sit on the throne of the Western All-Star starting center.

This is purely a big man out of a dwarf, and there is really no decent center in the West.

Yi Jianlian's selection is also quite special. He should be regarded as a forward player, but Duncan and Garnett are both the bosses of the Western Conference. It is not appropriate for them to play as substitutes. How can fans accept it.

Stern had an idea, and simply made the UAE a backcourt position.

No one can find fault with Ah Lian in the backcourt. After all, his playing style is no different from that of a defender in some cases.

In fact, the position of a player is an extremely vague concept. For example, Wade, can he be regarded as a guard with his style of play?He's more forward than forward.

Ah Lian was turned into the backcourt. If you really want to say that you robbed someone else's starting position, in fact, you robbed Nash's starting position, because if Ah Lian was assigned to the forward position, Nash and Kobe would become the starting guard.

Stern just saw that Nash was honest, and he was the big brother of the UAE teammate, so he took advantage of him.

Except for Kobe, Duncan and Nowitzki in the west, the rest are all disciples of Kumbu.

There are 24 All-Star players in the first All-Star Game, and 21 of them are related to Kong Bu. This shows how amazing Kong Bu's influence is in today's league.

Various media outlets and fans also noticed this spectacle.

"Fortunately, Kumbu didn't come to the West to coach, otherwise the West would probably be full of Kumbu's players."

"Kumbu didn't come to the west, Shaq ran to him, can you guarantee that Duncan, Nowitzki or Kobe will not become the next Shaq?"

"Is it unlikely that the three of them will? It's hard for me to imagine the three of them leaving their respective teams to go to Kongbu."

"What is impossible, if it is really time to lose, for the sake of the championship, it is entirely possible for them to defect to Kumbu."

"Maybe Comb has some kind of stamp collecting habit. Maybe he will sell the shares of the Bobcats in a few seasons and come to the West to coach?"

"That's wonderful. The East has won 9 championships in a row. God, the last time we won the West was the Rockets in 95!"

"In my dreams, I want Comb to come to the west and lead our western team to win the championship, even if he coaches a junk team like the Clippers."

As the fans said, the West has not won the championship for nine years. After the Rockets won the championship in 95, the Bulls won the second consecutive championship, and then Combe led the Raptors to the three consecutive championships. The first championship in the history of the Bobcats so far.

Western fans have been waiting for Konbu, they can't wait to kidnap Konbu to the west.

……

Before the main game of the All-Star Weekend, there were some miscellaneous games. This year, many people from the Bobcats participated, and Kumbu never left the field. They all sat on the sidelines and cheered for their disciples.

The current format of the Rookie Challenge is the first-year team against the second-year team. After seeing the lineup on the field, Comb thought he had arrived at the Bobcats' training ground.

Iguodala, Josh Smith, Martin Jr., and Varejao are all members of the first-year team.

Bosh, Hinrich, David West, Barbosa, Josh Howard and others in the second grade.

Most of them are disciples of Combe.

In the end, the second grade was slightly better. Bosh won the MVP of the Rookie Challenge, which was regarded as the first gold-worthy honor in his career.

Then there is the slam dunk contest. The Bobcats have Brent Barry, the former slam dunk champion. This year, Josh Smith also got a place to participate. One month before the All-Star Weekend, he started special training with Barry's help.

It is worth mentioning that Josh Smith is normally the champion of the 2005 Slam Dunk Contest. His final move was to fly over Wilkins, the famous Eagles former slam dunk king.

Now the Bobcats also have a former slam dunk king Brent Barry, but Barry's rank is too low and there are not enough gimmicks.

After Ao Pang heard the news, he immediately took the initiative to invite Ying, and took the job on himself.

When it came to the slam dunk final, Ao Pang sat under the basket with a chair, and then Josh Smith completed a leap over Ao Pang dunk.

In terms of difficulty, it's actually not that big, maybe not as difficult as those slam dunk performances of Feiyue cars later.

But the opponent was too weak to withstand. In addition to Josh Smith, the four participating players in this slam dunk contest also included JR Smith, Stoudemire and the Hornets' Chris Anderson, who later became Birdman Anderson. These three brothers also Anderson has a little bit of qualifications for dunking.

Generally speaking, this is a relatively unsuccessful slam dunk contest, especially compared with the previous two years, it seems a bit out of place.

Both the 2003 and 2004 dunk contest winners were Jason Richardson.

Many domestic fans believe that Jordan and Carter's performances in the dunk contest are the best in history. In fact, this is not the case. The NBA held a vote for the best dunk in All-Star history by all fans.

The No. 03 player was Jason Richardson in [-]. His action back then was to catch the ball in the air and change hands between his legs, and dunk behind his head with his back to the ring.

The second place is Jason Richardson in 04. This year, his action is to catch the ball bounced off the backboard and then switch hands for dunks.

No.3 is Carter's 2000 aerial bombing of the earth and then switching hands between the legs for a dunk.

Then No.4 is Jordan's free throw line take-off dunk.

Among other things, just looking at the movements of No.1 and No.3, Richardson has one more turn and back button in the air than Carter, which is not a little bit more difficult.

Of course, this vote was made in 2005, and there must be more brilliant dunks after 2005.

Anyway, Josh Smith's dunk is really not good, the gimmick is enough, and the difficulty and aesthetics are not enough.

But now that they are all champions, what more bicycles do they need? Josh Smith won a prize of [-] US dollars, and he was so happy from ear to ear.

Originally, James was also going to participate in this dunk contest, but later he gave up the competition for some reason. If he could come, maybe this dunk contest would be more topical in history, unlike what it is now. Nobody remembers.

……

In the Eastern All-Star locker room, 12 Eastern Conference stars gathered together, and it was very lively.

Ao Pang was born very good at activating the atmosphere, and now he is the oldest among the 12 people, so he regards himself as the big brother.

"Children, remember to pass the ball to me when you play in a while. I'm at this age to spend the All-Star Weekend with you. Why don't you take care of me?"

Ao Pang shouted at the crowd.

"Shaq, you are about to retire, and you still compete with us young people for the AMVP, isn't it unreasonable?" Davies with a beard joked.

"Huh? You bastard, I'm going to retire? I have to win at least two more championships before I retire. It's definitely the number of championships you'll look up to in your life!" Ao Pang turned to David dissatisfied. S said.

Davis raised three fingers shyly, "Sorry, Shaq, I already have three championship rings in my hand."

"Two for the Raptors Dynasty and one for the Philadelphia Dynasty. In this way, it seems that I have not only three rings, but also two dynasties!"

Ao Pang looked embarrassed. He looked around and found a very cruel thing. Among this group of people, he and Hill seemed to have only one championship. The others were all Dynasty players, and the number of championships in their hands was more than two. indivual! (end of this chapter)
