I am super giant

Chapter 180 Announcement of the First Round of All-Star Voting

At the end of halftime, the Cavaliers fell behind 33:51 at one point, with a difference of as many as 18 points.

The game has almost entered garbage time, and there is no suspense anymore.

But in the second half, the situation changed suddenly, and the Cavaliers broke out. They played a tenacity that is difficult for a young team to possess.

Don't give up until the last minute of the game.

Ye Feng began to hand the ball to Boozer again and again, and Boozer blew up Ruffin and Collins, the starters and backups at the positions of the two power forwards.

Salt Lake City fans couldn't hide their disappointment. The forward position was once the Jazz's strongest point, and Malone was the soul of this team.

But now, the Jazz's forward position has become a breakthrough point for the opponent, and the gap is hard to describe!
Out of desperation, the Jazz pushed Kirilenko, who played small forward, to the position of power forward.

Kirilenko did not let the team down, although there is a gap in tonnage, still limited Boozer.

But in this way, James, who had been strangled to death by Kirilenko, broke out again.

Throughout the second half, the Cavaliers' striker became a breakthrough point, and the Jazz were blown away again.

52:34, this is the score of the second half.

85:85, the game entered overtime.

Although overtime is the beginning of equality, but the situation has been biased towards the Cavaliers.

Kirilenko is a very good player with strong defense and omnipotence. This season, he averaged 16.5 points, 8.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.9 steals and 2.8 blocks per game. He is the most promising player to get 5-doubles after Olajuwon.

But to be honest, he is not suitable to be a team leader.

The leader of a team does not need to be strong at ordinary times, what is important is to be able to stand up at critical moments, lead the team to score, and get out of the predicament.

But obviously, Kirilenko lacks such ability, at least not now.

In overtime, the entire Jazz team scored only 11 points, and no one could stand up when they were behind.

On the Cavaliers side, Boozer broke out again, scoring 10 points alone, and the entire Cavaliers scored 17 points.

At the end of the game, 102:96, the Cavaliers won.

基里连科27分4篮板2助攻3抢断6盖帽，拉加·贝尔20分2篮板2助攻，史蒂文森18分3助攻，洛佩兹11分，柯林斯10分。

The team had 5 players in double figures and seemed to be playing well, but they lost.

At the critical moment, none of these five people could stand up.

Cavaliers side, Boozer 32 points and 18 rebounds, became the master of the night, almost unstoppable.

James had 18 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, and his shooting percentage was 42.9%, which was indeed greatly restricted by Kirilenko.

Ye Feng scored 25 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals, and his performance was equally impressive.

After Malone and Stockton left, the Jazz's No. 1 and No. 4 positions collapsed, which obviously became the two loopholes of the team.

At the end of the game, the Cavaliers' record reached 20 wins and 20 losses, still ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference, and it seems very stable to enter the playoffs.

After the game ended, it happened to be the day when the results of the first round of the All-Star voting were announced. The results released by the league have attracted widespread attention from fans.

The current All-Star voting still adopts the previous model, which is divided into three positions, center, forward and guard.

West center position.

Yao Ming rides the absolute city, only O'Neill can pose some threats to him.

Ranked in order: Yao Ming, O'Neal, Brad Miller, Divac
Western forward position.

This may be the most competitive position, after all, almost all of the league's strongest power forwards are in the West.

The rankings are: Garnett, Duncan, Nowitzki, Malone, Anthony, Peja, Webber, Pau Gasol, Anthony Walker
It is already a miracle that rookie Anthony can squeeze to the fifth position.

Webber and Pejaco behind him are all figures on the MVP rankings.

West guard position.

There is not much suspense in the competition. Although something happened to Kobe, the votes are still top-notch.

Francis was second, with a big lead over Payton in third.Not surprisingly, the starting lineup must be Kobe and Francis.

The rankings are: Kobe, Francis, Payton, Nash, Ginobili, Bibby, Parker, Ray Allen, Finley, Mobley
Eastern center position.

There is really no decent center forward.

Ben, who can only defend, ranks first, and Mourning, who is reimbursed for the season, ranks second.

The rankings are: Ben Wallace, Mourning, Magloire, Eddy Curry.
These guys can only make the list in the east, and they don't even have a chance in the west.

Eastern forward position.

There is no suspense, it should be Carter and O'Neal.

The rankings are: Carter, O'Neal, Martin, Artest, Pippen, Raheem, Boozer, Mashburn, Kukoc.

Eastern guard position.

First offer the ranking.

Iverson, Ye Feng, McGrady, Kidd, "Bearded" Davis, Marbury, James, Pierce, Reggie Miller, Billups, Hamilton.
Looking at this list, you will know that this is the most intense and controversial position in this year's All-Star voting.

Not to mention Iverson and McGrady, they have always been popular superstars.

Kidd is slightly less popular, but his strength is too strong, his qualifications are also old, and he is at the peak.

Beard's performance this season has been outstanding, the team's record has been ranked second in the Western Conference, his personal data is also very good, and his style of play is extremely gorgeous.

Pierce is equally good and the core of the Celtics.

Marbury is also at the peak. Although his record is not good and he has just transferred, his strength is one of the strongest in the No. 1 position.

As the "chosen son", James' current statistics rank first among rookies, with 20.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.7 blocks, which can be compared with superstars, but he is only ranked seventh.

As for Ye Feng, although he performed very well, averaging 17.6 points, 4.1 points, 4.6 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.5 assists per game, he was much worse than James, but he ranked second.

This is simply incredible.

Many fans shouted that it was unfair, Ye Feng was suspected of cheating.

But anyone who understands knows that there is no cheating, it's just that the back of Huaxia behind Ye Feng is playing a role.

Look at Yao Ming's All-Star votes last year and you will understand.

In the first year of Yao Ming's entry into the NBA, his popularity surpassed that of the superstar O'Neal who was still at the peak, and he grabbed the starting center position in the Western Conference.

Many sensible people asked the league to change the voting rules and restrict the voting of Huaxia fans.

But even if it needs to be revised, it will at least be a matter of next season.

Besides, David Stern was sitting in the office, looking at the data, full of joy, and had no intention of modifying the data at all.

This data fully proves how promising the Huaxia market is and how much the Huaxia fan base is worth looking forward to.

And compared to the same period, Ye Feng's popularity was higher than Yao Ming's, and he was actually in second place in the first round, not even far behind Iverson's vote data.

Not only did Stern not want to restrict Ye Feng, he even wanted to give Ye Feng more opportunities to perform.
