From Today it is the King of the Basketball

Because she was going to New Orleans with Liu Mang, Xiao Loli took leave from school.

This made Liu Mang once again lament the corruption in the capitalist countries!

The junior high school in the United States can easily take travel leave.

"Isn't it in our Chinese tradition that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles? How can they do better in the United States, which has only 200 years of history?"

Since the Eagles played 7 games in the first 14 days of February, there were only 4 games left after the All-Star weekend.

From the 15th to the 22nd, it was the Hawks' All-Star weekend holiday. There were eight days in total, and there were four games from the 23rd to the 29th.

This is the easiest time for the Hawks after the All-Star Weekend in six years. There are four battles in 7 days. The opponents are the focus battle of the Lakers at the end of the All-Star Weekend. The journey, where the Jazz and King are back-to-back, after the back-to-back play, the 27th and 28th before the Spurs are the rest time.

Looking at the boxes and suitcases packed by the two girls, Alexia, who learned a lot of weird things with Liu Mang ’s mother, loves to worry about everything and wants Liu Mang to bring them, although Most things ... not used in the end, but Liu Mang is quite happy.

This time going to New Orleans to play the All-Star game is not so anxious, because there is no commercial activity to do.

This All-Star weekend is non-profit.

The Hornets ’new arena was rebuilt in December. The name is still New Orleans Arena. With a certain degree of expansion, the number of seats has changed from more than 19,000 to more than 21,000.

The first time it was used as a venue for the All-Star weekend, the Hornets will not move back here until after this season.

This All-Star Weekend is a public welfare event jointly organized by the NBA official and the Louisiana State Assembly. The All-Star Weekend ticket does not charge money. A total of 2500 local families returning to New Orleans ’hometown were invited, totaling 10,000 People come to watch the game live,

There are also volunteers from more than 30 other states in the United States who come here to help rebuild, and fans who have participated in the lottery since the beginning of the season. The NBA provides free tickets and sent a total of 9,000 tickets.

Although tickets are not sold, volunteers and fans who come here to win tickets must definitely stay here to help New Orleans revitalize the tourism industry.

Since the beginning of 2007, the reconstruction of New Orleans has been carried out very well. Some hotels have been opened one after another, and tourist facilities have been gradually restored and newly built, but too few people have come to travel, resulting in those who have just returned to rebuild. Forced to go elsewhere.

NBA officials want to take this opportunity to help New Orleans, of course, the main purpose is to improve the image of the NBA league.

The remaining more than 2,000 copies are of course for team officials, league officials, media reporters, experts and participants, players who did not participate in the All-Star Weekend, and their families and friends of players.

After the hurricane of New Orleans, it is basically in ruins. There are no large shopping malls and business districts, and making commercial endorsements in the city that is being rebuilt will also have an impact on the image of the players. The agents of major stars People are very resistant, so simply, Liu Mang ’s all-star weekend business activities have been cancelled, leaving for Beijing in the summer ...

Liu Mang has a lot of endorsements to publicize the agreement once a year, and they can naturally seek it before the Beijing Olympics.

However, Liu Mang can't wait until the 18th to watch the rookie game. There are public welfare activities arranged by the league on the 17th, so tomorrow must be the 16th.

Although the two girls were helping Liu Mang to pack things up on the 15th, Liu Mang's family took a day off. Rarely did not have to think about anything. They could watch TV, go shopping, eat afternoon tea together, and they were not in a hurry.

On the afternoon of the 16th, the Liu Mang family took Wade, McGrady, Kwame Brown, Rondo and Gortat together to take Levia's scheduled charter flight to New Orleans.

This time the All-Star Weekend, the Hawks did not qualify for the All-Star Weekend. None of the players want to go to the All-Star Weekend host city, which is quite rare.

The major hurricane in 2005 flooded 80% of New Orleans, almost destroyed the entire city, and lost more than 200 billion U.S. dollars. This is the United States Federation ’s advance notice of the evacuation of local people in New Orleans. In the case where things have been transported long ago.

Fortunately, modern science is prosperous, predicting the path of the hurricane ahead of time, informing residents of the evacuation early, and eventually destroying the entire city. The hurricane only killed more than 1,800 people in New Orleans.

However, New Orleans originally had a population of 730,000. Even if the US government invested heavily in rebuilding New Orleans, a large tourist city on the south coast in 2006, there were still fewer than 200,000 people returning to New Orleans in 2007, just like the ghost town, and New Orleans used to be The largest city in Louisiana, where GDP once accounted for one-third to one-quarter of the entire state, of course, they want to revitalize this tourist city, so they joined the NBA to engage in this public welfare form of All-Star Weekend.

The NBA also uses this to enhance the league's image.

After arriving in New Orleans, the Eagles and others rented five villas by the sea, not far away.

Liu Mang looked at several bodyguards guarding outside the villa. There were also bodyguards at the gates and passages of the villa. The key is that most of these bodyguards are equipped with guns ...

This is the first time Liu Mang has played an All-Star game and someone with a gun protects him ...

These things were arranged by Levia, who was more thoughtful than Liu Mang thought.

The reason why no one here in New Orleans wants to come back is that apart from the bad economic situation, the law and order has been completely destroyed. In 2006, the second year after the hurricane, it became a similar to a criminal city in Grand Theft Auto It looks completely uncontrolled.

Last year, Louisiana strengthened its security and vigorously eradicated the evil forces that took root here after the disaster. It has been much better, otherwise it will not invite more than 10,000 people from all over the United States to come to this city to host an All-Star Weekend.

But such things as evil forces, when you clean up with all your strength, they are often hidden, or you have to change a place after a shot, who knows if there will be any remnants.

Levia pays more attention to safety and directly hires a full-time employment security company with 40 employees, 20 of whom are inside and outside the yard of their villa, and 12 on the road leading to their villa nearby. The remaining two in two went to help several teammates who came with Liu Mang to guard the gate of the courtyard.

Liu Mang sighed that it is good to have a woman like Levia who has seen big scenes by her side. Don't worry about him, pull Levia to the second floor to lock them back, praise Levia with applause of love ... …

On February 17th, the two girls invited Maddie and Wade and Kwame Brown's family to meet with them, because Liu Mang, Wade, McGrady, Kwame Brown's four big stars plus Rondo and Gortat. The six players selected for the All-Star rookie second-year team are going to help the NBA in charity activities.

In New Orleans, the two girls decided not to go out to see what happened to the reconstruction, or safety was important, so Liu Mang could rest assured.

However, Liu Mang and others took more than 10 bodyguards on the way to participate in public welfare activities.

When Liu Mang arrived at the newly-built New Orleans Arena, he saw that Bryant, Yao Ming, James and others were the same, with four or five bodyguards all around him ...

Everyone's thoughts are similar.

The public welfare activities in the morning and after lunch went smoothly, and they were all arranged, such as voluntary filming of promotional videos to help New Orleans revive the tourism industry, to care for those who lost their homes due to natural disasters, and send some condolences ... …

Everything went well, until only three other All-Stars were left after the others left in the afternoon ...

Liu Mang, McGrady, James!

Stu Jackson, the vice president of the league, brought a man to talk to them.

That person is the Hornets player Ty Shawn Prince!

Due to the presence of senior members of the league, Liu Mang, McGrady, and James all just greeted Prince and came to the conference room of the New Orleans Arena ~ www.readwn.com ~ so formal, Liu Mang is kind of strange Feeling-certainly not a good thing!

"Hello everyone, I'm Stu Jackson. As the executive officer of the NBA propaganda department, there is one very important thing that needs your help." Stu Jackson said.

Both Liu Mang and McGrady are confused, what can they help?

Liu Mang and McGrady looked at each other, and through their eyes, they understood each other's thoughts: "Should we be asked to donate money? Impossible!"

Of course, the two also think it's unlikely, they don't look down on the money alliance.

Liu Mang felt that something bad was going to happen, and McGrady was on the side of it, and Prince seemed to have known it for a long time, and said nothing.

It was James, the youngest and shortest player of the four players who said angrily: "Stu, we are all old friends. I can help if there is anything I can help."

"Oh, thank you so much," Stu Jackson laughed. "This is a great thing. We have negotiated with the Dance Association. To help New Orleans revitalize the economy, we are ready to take advantage of it after the All-Star Weekend." The all-star atmosphere of the United States is here to host an all-American dance king battle. The league hopes that your four NBA dance kings will act as guests in the All-Star game, announce this event to the world, and hope that some of you can play this role. Spokesperson for the Second National Dance Championship. "

As soon as Stu Jackson's words came out, Prince's eyes, which had been known for a long time, were shining, and both McGrady and James looked happy.

There was only one person, dumbfounded.

"Zhan Zhan Zhan is the king of bliss dance. Although she is a bit of a cannon, she is already one of the dances of the American Dance Association; the Latin dances of Mai Ma Ma have always been big dances; The big dance ... But what is it? The master is a pole dance! "
