Chapter 635 The selection is over!
Team Xu Xuan:
Xu Xuan (Lakers/Guard)
Curry (Warriors/guard)
Jimmy Butler (Bulls/Frontcourt)
Kawhi Leonard (Spurs/Frontcourt)
Giannis Antetokounmpo (Bucks/Frontcourt)
James team:
Irving (Cavalier/Guard)
DeMar DeRozan (Raptors/Guard)
James (Cavaliers/Frontcourt)
Kevin Durant (Warriors/Frontcourt)
Anthony Davis (Pelicans/Frontcourt)
The starting list is established.
Naturally, a series of discussions were triggered.
"Xu Xuan's lineup is amazing. They have scoring from the outside, defense on the front line, and the monster Antetokounmpo. The depth and shallowness are enough."
"It's a pity. If Durant is also in Xu Xuan's team, it will be even more incomprehensible. Replace Butler, tsk, the lineup is beautiful."
"What are you doing? Why do you want to replace Jimmy Butler? Jimmy is not as good as KD. The Xuxuan team's scoring ability has exploded. What they need is a player like Jimmy, and KD is too wasteful in the Xuxuan team. "
"Hey! From this point of view, the LeBron team is not weak, James + KD + AD, isn't this invincible?"
"It's really scary. It can be said that Xu Xuan's team is strong on the outside, while LeBron's team is strong on the front line. Both sides have their own strengths."
"I'm still looking forward to the 'gay combination' between Xu Xuan and Curry. The three-pointers of these two people are really imaginative."
"Three-pointers will be inaccurate, and a strong striker is really strong!"
Both teams have supporters.
But it is recognized that Xu Xuan's team is strong on the outside, while LeBron's team is strong on the front line.
"How are you two, the first stage is over, do you have any ideas?" Kenny Smith clapped his hands and motioned for Xu Xuan to speak first.
"It's okay. I have selected very good players. I like them very much. I am looking forward to playing with them." Xu Xuan considered his tone.
"LeBron, what about you?"
"They are all very good teammates, and no one will suffer a loss when they are selected." LeBron's answer is also very official.
"That's good." Kenny Smith nodded: "I'll give you five minutes to rest, and we're going to start the second stage of selection, which will start as soon as the five minutes pass, OK?"
"OK."
"OK."
Xu Xuan and James answered at the same time.
The connection is temporarily closed.
Kenny Smith also returned to his seat, and the four of them briefly analyzed the lineup that has been released so far.
"Xu Xuan's team is still strong here, I think, but from the perspective of the upper limit, I am more optimistic about LeBron's team. The combination of James + KD + AD, I can't even imagine how powerful it must be. I think The only chance for Team Xu Xuan to win is that Xu Xuan and Curry shoot from the outside, and then take away the game in a wave, otherwise, I am more optimistic about Team LeBron." Reggie Miller said first: "Kenny, what do you think? Woolen cloth?"
Kenny Smith nodded, "I also think that LeBron's team may be more stable, but with Xu Xuan and Curry's team, I still have no brains to support it."
O'Neal said: "The core of the Xu Xuan team is undoubtedly to play outside, mainly Xu Xuan and Curry, while the LeBron team will definitely pay more attention to attacking the inside. There is still a big difference between the two, but I am also optimistic about LeBron. After all, no one in the league can stop LeBron + KD + AD from scoring."
"KD does account for a lot of points. Like Kenny, I support Xu Xuan and Curry with no brains. Come on, Xu Xuan's team will win!!!" Barkley waved his arms.
After chatting briefly for a while, most people are optimistic about Team LeBron, but they all support Team Xu Xuan. After all, Xu Xuan and Curry are so popular. In terms of absolute strength, everyone is still optimistic about Team LeBron. Team LeBron can win.
It's 5 minutes away.
Reconnect back.
The list of this year's All-Star substitutes was given on the big screen.
East bench list: Isaiah Thomas, Kyle Lowry, Kemba Walker, John Wall, Paul George, Kevin Love, Paul Millsap.
West bench: James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Klay Thompson, Gordon Hayward, Draymond Green, DeMarcus Cousins, Marc Gasol .
There are 14 people in total. Xu Xuan and James need to choose 14 of these 7 people as their All-Star teammates.
"I won't say much about the rules. In the second stage, LeBron, you have the right to choose first, and then the last player will automatically enter Xu Xuan's team." Kenny Smith came to the center of the stage again, looking at James faintly. With a reflective head, he said: "Okay, LeBron, the timer starts, or the 25-second countdown, what is your choice?"
"Kevin Love, I choose Kevin Love as my first choice!" James said directly.
"Ha, LeBron chose his teammates, and the Big Three are here!" O'Neal said with a smile, "Xu, do you want to choose Clay as well, and form a team of warriors?"
"Okay, Kevin Love will be on Team LeBron," Kenny Smith said.
The avatar representing Kevin Love was also transferred to James' team.
"So, Xu, it's your turn. What's your choice? The 25-second countdown." Kenny Smith said.
O'Neill guessed: "Is it Russell? Or Paul George? Or Clay?"
"It shouldn't be Clay, it might be Paul George." Reggie Miller said.
This time, Xu Xuan didn't choose immediately, but struggled for a while.
There is no way, I promised Westbrook that he would be the first choice. If I don't choose him, I will break my promise, and pickled peppers. Presumably pickled peppers can also be understood.
Xu Xuan made his decision and said in a deep voice, "My first choice is Russell, Russell Westbrook."
Now the four of TNT are excited, and Kenny Smith is interested: "Xu, you didn't choose Paul George as your first choice? Is there any reason for this?"
"Yeah, Xu, don't you like the new and dislike the old?" O'Neill also booed.
Xu Xuan shook his head and smiled: "You guys are thinking too much, I just promised Russell that he would be the first choice, and I agreed a long time ago, so I can't break my promise, and about pickled peppers, we don't need to say anything extra Too many, he understands."
"Well, point guard Russell Westbrook from the Thunder will join Xu Xuan's team," Kenny Smith paused and continued: "Hey, I found out, Xu Xuan's No. 1 pick All of them seem to be defenders, isn't Xu Xuan afraid that he won't have playing time?"
"So, LeBron, it's your turn, who's your second pick?"
"I choose James Harden."
"Okay, then everyone should know my second choice, my old teammate and good buddy, Paul George!" Xu Xuan then gave his second answer.
Then there are ten people on the rest of the list:
Isaiah Thomas, Kyle Lowry, Kemba Walker, John Wall, Paul Millsap.
Klay Thompson, Gordon Hayward, Draymond Green, DeMarcus Cousins, Marc Gasol.
"LeBron, 25 seconds, what's your third choice?" Kenny Smith continued.
Picking a backup is not the same as picking a starter.There are few starters and a lot of attention, so the selection is slower, but there are many substitutes. It would be a waste of time to choose the same as the starters.
So the tempo is picking up.
"I choose Klay Thompson." James said.
As soon as this choice was made, the Warriors fans said directly: "Damn, the splash has been taken apart!"
"So Xu, what about you?"
"I choose John Wall"
The tempo on both sides was fast, without wasting time.
When James' last choice was Green, the remaining Paul Millsap also automatically joined the Xu Xuan team.
"Okay, the selection process is over, let's thank Xu and LeBron for taking such a long time to connect in their busy schedules, especially Xu, who came here just after the game, and basically didn't rest, Thank you both, and I look forward to your performance in the All-Star Game, and we will meet again at that time." Kenny Smith said very politely.
Both Xu Xuan and LeBron made two polite calls, and then hung up the connection.
Now it's time for analysis, nothing to do with them.
"So, first let's take a look at the final rosters selected by the two teams.
Team Xu Xuan, captain Xu Xuan.
The starters are Curry,
Jimmy Butler,
Kawhi Leonard,
Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Substitutes are Russell Westbrook,
John Wall,
Kemba Walker,
Paul George,
Gordon Hayward,
Paul Millsap,
DeMarcus Cousins. "
After a pause, Kenny Smith continued: "And Team LeBron is:
captain lebron james
The starters are Kyrie Irving,
DeMar DeRozan,
Kevin Durant,
Anthony Davis.
Substitutes are: James Harden,
Klay Thompson,
Isaiah Thomas,
Kyle Lowry,
Draymond Green,
Kevin Love,
Marc Gasol. "
Kenny Smith read his name for a long time before clapping his hands, and said slowly: "Now that the selection is over, let's talk about it, what do you think, Reggie?"
Reggie Miller spread his hands: "I still carry out my previous point of view. Team LeBron's impact is stronger. They can almost defeat Team Xu Xuan with impact. Team Xu Xuan's selection is not bad, it's a bit It’s taken for granted. You can see that their players are the kind of players with high ceilings, but they are not so safe. So, I still believe that Team LeBron can win.”
"So, Shaq, what do you think?"
"It's hard to say now. I don't know who will win now, but the LeBron team really needs to be more secure. Whether it is organization, offense or defense, they will have reliable support points and are very average. On the contrary, Xu The Xuan team is too focused on offense, and they may lose more than they gain."
"Well, that's your opinion, Charles?"
"I have no brains to support Xu Xuan. I'm here to predict that Xu Xuan's team may overwhelm Team LeBron in the first three quarters, three quarters!" Barkley raised three fingers.
"Oh, you're dreaming about Charles, it's impossible for my grandma to say such a thing." Reggie Miller mocked.
"Your grandma?" Buckley squinted at him: "Who is your grandma? I only know that O'Neal's grandma is very powerful. Who is your grandma?"
"Fack! You bastard!"
Not to mention the people who are still talking about it.
The Lakers have embarked on another away game at this time, Milwaukee.
Their next opponent is the Milwaukee Bucks.
It is worth mentioning that Giannis Antetokounmpo, the star of the Bucks, has just been selected by Xu Xuan as a teammate. In the upcoming All-Star game, the two will fight side by side.
In this regard, some media reporters also interviewed Xu Xuan and Antetokounmpo.
Xu Xuan said it was nothing, but looked forward to the fight with Brother Antetokounmpo even more.
Relatively speaking, Antetokounmpo, who became the starter directly after participating in the All-Star for the first time, seemed a little shy. After all, he neither spoke harshly to Xu Xuan nor said what he was going to do.
It's pretty cute anyway.
Speaking of which, so far this season, the Lakers have played against the Bucks for the first time.
Xu Xuan looked through their roster before the game.
The Bucks haven't changed much this season, and they still play with Antetokounmpo as the core.
Last summer, one of the more brilliant signings was that they signed free agent guard Jason Terry.
The 38-year-old Terry is the 1999th pick in the first round of the 10 NBA draft. So far in his career, he has played for the Eagles, Mavericks, Celtics, Nets, and Rockets. He has played in 1285 games in total. In the regular season, he averaged 31.0 minutes of playing time per game, and handed over 14.3 points, 2.4 rebounds, 4.1 assists, and 1.2 steals.
Throughout his career, Terry shot 44.4 percent from the field and 37.9 percent from three. In the 2008-09 season, Terry won the best sixth man award.In his 17-year NBA career, Terry hit a total of 2169 three-pointers. This performance made him third in the list of total three-pointers in NBA history, second only to Ray Allen. and Reggie Miller.
The 2015-16 season is Terry's second season playing for the Rockets. The veteran averaged only 17.5 minutes of playing time, 5.9 points, 1.1 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game.Among them, the score is the second lowest in his career, the rebound is the lowest in his career, and the assists are the lowest in his career.
Why it is good to sign Terry, mainly because he is a veteran.
And it's the kind of veteran with a lot of experience.
As we all know, after the current Bucks have determined the lineup with Antetokounmpo as the core and Middleton as the supplement, the main core undoubtedly looks very young, so signing Terry at this time can completely play a role in the development and growth of young players. help.In the game, he is still one of the best pitchers, able to help them space the field.
But between Terry and Kidd, these two guys are old friends and old rivals, right?
And Terry's age is not much younger than Kidd's to be honest. These two old guys won't have conflicts, right?
