Chapter 107 All-Star Voting

The game in January has started, but at the same time, there is another activity that has been in full swing: the All-Star voting, and this year's All-Star will be held in Los Angeles.

The voting has just begun, and Kobe Bryant has dominated the All-Star voting with a crushing attitude. After all, this is the All-Star Game in Los Angeles, and Kobe Bryant of the Sons of Los Angeles is very good. Maybe at the age of 32, he will win the All-Star Game again.

Of course, in the West, the most intense competition is not the position of guard, but the position of forward. The only two positions are watched by several players. It is an obvious state that there are more wolves and less meat.The number one power forward in history is Tim Duncan, the German chariot Dirk Nowitzki, the core of the Blazers' youth army LaMarcus Aldridge, and the champion power forward Paul Gasol.

This lineup is already very strong, but this is only the position of power forward. Although the position of small forward is not so gorgeous, the scoring leader Kevin Durant and the melon Carmelo Anthony of the platinum generation are also popular candidates.

If Anson and Blake Griffin want to grab a position from these people, it may be more difficult than reaching the sky. Even the All-Star home field advantage cannot do this.On the surface, the Clippers have a pretty good record, sixth in the Western Conference. They are only 1.5 and 1 game behind the fourth-ranked Thunder and fifth-ranked Nuggets. There are even plenty of fans of other teams who haven't seen them play yet.

In terms of the number of votes at the beginning, Blake Griffin is okay. Relying on the reputation of the No. 5 pick and the help of his people in Oklahoma State, he still barely squeezed into the top 01, but he is not as good as the top two superstar small forwards. In comparison, that is not a gap of 30:[-] points.As for Anson, it was even worse, not as tall as Rudy Gay.

But soon, less than a few days later, An Sheng's number of votes suddenly increased rapidly, overtaking five or six people in an instant and directly ranking third.This question is actually very simple, Chinese fans are coming.

In a game between the Clippers and the Mavericks, the Chinese on-court commentators had already started canvassing for An Sheng without hesitation, and their canvassing was very naked. Yao Ming, who was reimbursed for the season due to a foot injury, was invited. It is not easy to see a Chinese in the All-Star game, and the most promising Yao Ming was injured again in the fifth game, and An Sheng became the hope of Chinese fans.

再加上安生在这个赛季场均18.7分7.1个助攻6.1个篮板2.7次抢断1.8次盖帽的数据就算现在放在这个联盟也是独一份的。没有人能够质疑这个中国菜鸟的发挥，他欠缺的只是在美国这个地方作为一个中国人收割他的人气。

This is only the first round of voting, but after a while, the voting channel continued to open, and the turbulent votes from China flew to the official NBA website in the United States like snowflakes. An Sheng's votes were at an exaggerated speed increase. 40, 50, the growth rate of the number of votes made American audiences start complaining on Reddit.

"Didn't the Alliance say that they want to limit the number of votes in China? For example, one of their votes can only be counted as 7/[-] or even [-]/[-] of the votes. They still want Yide to reappear in the Alliance. What?" The netizen who said this sentence has the Nuggets team logo on his profile picture, and it's hard not to think that this is helping their team's boss Carmelo Anthony to speak, only [-] votes away , he would be ruthlessly blasted by An Sheng, and lose the qualification to start the All-Star.

"Indeed, Yide reached the top of the Eastern Conference forwards in his rookie season. My God, I will tell you that Chris even sent a video asking for votes on Twitter in order to overtake him. Around No.5, I can still accept his strength this year, but starting? My God, even LeBron didn't make an All-Star in his first season."

Obviously, among the fans in the United States, Chinese fans have almost made them feel very dissatisfied with the votes of the All-Stars. This time, An Sheng is about to overtake Carmelo Anthony, which has become a fuse. The turbulent discussions on the Internet will soon ferment in reality.

Sports Illustrated suddenly smelled the topic in it. After the Clippers played against the Grizzlies, it also directly threw this topic to the Grizzlies' small forward Rudy Gay. The Grizzlies' defense in this game was very tough. They also did a great job. The Clippers did not show their own characteristics. Instead, they were drawn into the positional battle by the Grizzlies. Their scoring in the whole game was a season-low 74 points. Anson's performance was poor, with 9 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists. , and the rare lack of steals and blocks, this is the first time for Anson, who is used to crazy help defenses, this season.

"Any? Well, as a rookie, he is indeed very good. I like his strength very much. But as an All-Star starter, I don't think I should mention Cameron. I am more suitable for that position than him." Tonight Rudy Gay played very well, with 21 points and 8 rebounds. For him who has been criticized for not being able to enter the playoffs, this season is a good opportunity!

Anson's sluggish performance gave the fans various excuses, and then, the Clippers played at home against the Nuggets led by another topical figure, Carmelo Anthony.Recently, Carmelo Anthony seems to have felt the crisis of his All-Star starter. He is in a very hot state. He has scored 30+ in four consecutive games. Besides, in the last game, the Nuggets severely abused the Clippers. However, An Sheng's first mission failure was also in his hands.

"I look forward to the next game. I will tell that rookie why I am the starter of the All-Star." Carmelo Anthony said after scoring 41 points in the face of the Hawks. Almost all the media have to foresee tomorrow The game may be a very bad memory for that Chinese rookie.

Under such circumstances, An Sheng just chose to keep silent and train silently. Indeed, no matter how much you say at this time, it is far from being able to fight back with an excellent performance. So you have to question the better way, Cameron, come on It is true that I lost to you in a match, but now you have not seen me for more than a month, and now I am no longer the little rookie who was silently trampled by you a month ago.
