On January 31 ST, the Clippers played against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The little emperor led the team to break the league leader James and scored 44 points to help the Cavaliers beat the Clippers.
The clippers lost three games in January, and this month was the best team in the league. Even if the last game at the end of the month was lost to the second Cavaliers in the league, their record was still 36 wins and 9 losses, which gave them hope to create 65+ wins.
After all the games in January, the ranking in the Western Conference changed again-
1 Clippers (36 wins and 9 losses), 2 Spurs (32 wins and 12 losses), 3 Trailblazers (3 wins and 15 losses), 4 Mavericks (27 wins and 1 loss), 5 Rockets (26 wins and 19 losses), 6 Lakers (25 wins and 2 losses), 7 Jazz (24 wins and 21 losses) and Thunder (23 wins and 22 losses).
It is worth noting that the Lakers have reached a bottleneck. They always lose some games that they shouldn’t lose, such as Bobcats and Wizards, but they can also win top teams like Spurs and Cavaliers. The regular season record of Zijin Army can’t say anything. This is definitely a playoff trick, better than Clippers and Spurs. No one wants to meet them.
Chapter three hundred and ninety Star and big deal!
The ps Lakers are stronger after the transaction. The three cancers of Marbury, McGrady and Iverson have changed their fate. Now history has been smeared with still life, but it feels good!
One last vote!
On February 1st, the nba officially announced the final result of the 29-year star voting, and the starting list of the East and West stars was officially released. Cavaliers small forward James won a record 31,451 votes and rocket center Yao was elected as the starting center in the West for the seventh time in a row.
The so-called voting king naturally refers to the players who get the most star votes every year. In most cases, they were also the most popular players in the league at that time. However, since the introduction of online voting, there have been many strange things, such as it is too easy for Gatt to start and almost lose his job. Even the parties themselves are embarrassed to start an embarrassing incident.
Star votes are the most direct expression of players’ popularity and an important reference index for sponsors and advertisers to burn money. Don’t believe Gart’s acid words, "If fans want to vote for Yi Jianlian, vote for what I call". Except for a few freaks such as Tim Duncan, no one will care about the number of star votes, which is a sign linked to money.
There are several people who have special milestones among the numerous ticket kings. First, Magic Johnson won the star ticket kings in 195 and 196, among which 1692 votes were won in 1996, which was the first big star in nba history to win more than one million votes. Next, Michael Jordan will monopolize the Star Ticket King for seven consecutive years from 1997, when Jordan replaced the magician. Obviously, if he hadn’t gone to play baseball after the first three consecutive championships, the horror record would have continued. The evidence is that he won the Ticket King again in 1997 and 1999 after his comeback, and in 1997, he won as many as 2,451,136 votes-you know, there was no such thing as online voting in the world at that time. Who knows how many votes the flying man could get now, maybe 100 million?
Then Yao threw the network, strength, Regardless of the concept of patriotism, he was indeed the first person to break Jordan’s vote record-in 25 years, he got 25,527 votes. In 26 years, because the mouse of China netizens was damaged in the voting a year ago, most of Yao’s votes were slightly slippery, but he still won 234,273 votes. This year, LeBron James set an amazing record of 31,451 votes, which not only won the absolute advantage as the vote king, but also became the first player to get 30,000 votes in history. Of course, this does not mean that the popularity of the little emperor has surpassed that of all his predecessors Howard won more than 3 million votes this year, and the two brothers reached the top five in the second season, which directly threatened James. Maybe the animal brothers will be able to achieve overtaking in 2008.
Three million votes is the result of the rapid rise of twin fans’ fame in the world. More than one billion people in Canada support them, and it is not difficult for them to become the king of votes.
Wade, Ray Allen, James, Gart and Howard Yi Jianlian, the first five tigers in the East, ranked third behind Gart by 34 votes. James became the first star to win more than 30,000 votes. In addition, Ji Guoqiu, Ji Guoshame, Howard, James and Wade, plus Kobe Bryant and Duncan in the West, all broke Yao’s record of 25,572 votes.
The first five players in the western region were Paul, Kobe, Ji Guoshi, Ji Guoqiu and Yao Kobe, who won the highest 29,215 votes in the western region. First, Ji Guoshi won 15,559 votes in the first star counting vote, which was about 150,000 less than Anthony’s. However, after the final voting results were announced yesterday, Ji Guoshi’s votes soared to 25,295, almost increasing by one million votes, while Anthony’s votes were only 27,516. It is conceivable that Anthony would miss the stars in the highly competitive western region if he failed to start.
Ji Guoqiu ranked third in the west with 259,225 votes, second only to Kobe and Yao Jiguo with 25,295 votes.
Western votes
Forward-Ji Guoqiu (259,225 votes), Ji Guoshame (25,295 votes) and Duncan (25,716 votes)

The 5th nba Star Tournament will be held in Phoenix, USA on February 14th (Saturday). It will be broadcast live in more than two countries and regions, N and espn billiards. Phoenix hosted the Star Tournament in 1975 and 1995.
This time, Coach Star coached the West and became Old Deng Liwei, which means that it is very likely that three Clippers players will enter the nba. If the Clippers coach is shameless, he will probably bring Crawford to the game. Paul and Roy fans will curse!
Of course, there is another unavoidable topic, that is Yi Jianlian.
The starting position in the East of the 11th Star Gator was almost threatened. Yi Jianlian was still ahead of Gator in the first issue, and it was not until the final vote was announced that he was strangely overtaken. Everyone knows that if Yi Jianlian becomes the starting power forward in the East, it will definitely exceed the league bottom line.
"Yi Jianlian shames Pierce and Granger"
Max Pierce, a columnist of The Boston Globe, spread three pages magnificently. The title of Yi Jianlian-China People’s Choice was very dark. The power forward from China,
With the weekly update of the results of the star poll, a question has finally become a mystery in the hearts of Celtic fans, that is, who is Yi Jianlian?
For this New Jersey Nets power forward, most Americans are still stuck in the pronunciation of his name because it sounds a bit rap, but the fact is that a star-making movement is making him another great star from China after Yao. However, this 7-foot-tall and 23-pound sophomore seems to be more suitable for the rookie challenge than the star.
"This is a topic that everyone is debating," Pierce said. "China has a larger population than any other country in the world, and many of them are nba fans. When Yao joined the nba, we already saw what it would be like, including the season twin brothers."
American fans are questioning the qualification of China players to enter the star. At this time, of course, three China stars want to help Yi Jianlian. Ji Guoshi first said, "He didn’t vote for himself, did he? I know he voted for me. If anyone thinks he is not qualified, please ask the fans first. I remember that Gatt said in the newspaper,’ This is not the best nba team, this is the Star Game’. The reason why fans want to see the Star Game is that they vote for the star team is as simple as that. We were questioned last year, but the votes show that more people still like to see us play. That’s enough. "
Yao jokingly said, "I don’t know this feeling because I have experienced the same thing. In fact, I was very nervous when O ‘Neill sat on the bench. I was so nervous that I couldn’t help asking myself,’ Can I really do it? Am I a star player?’ But Yi Jianlian must understand one thing: he is not only playing for himself, but also for the fans who support him. "
After all, Yi Jianlian didn’t squeeze Gatt out in the end.
The big news is that on the first day of February, there was a big deal in the league. The Lakers didn’t get the clippers deal exception, but they still figured out a way to trade Bynum themselves.
On February 1st, the Lakers reached a big deal with the Hornets. The Lakers sent Andrew Bynum+Corey Maghetti+20,000 cash in exchange for New Orleans center Tai Sen Chandler and the first draft in 9 years. This is a reciprocal transaction of funds.
The American media believe that the Lakers have found another bargain, which is much more reliable than their three-way deal a few months ago. Chandler, 26, is the best defensive center in the league-he and Gasol will finish without conflict, but his chronic foot injury season bothered him to show that he missed three games at the beginning of the season, and then he averaged three rebounds and 14 blocks in 15 games, which is a significant drop from last year. He played 79 times, averaging 11 points, 117 rebounds and 1 block per game.
Before the season, the Hornets were widely regarded as a dark horse in the championship competition. However, before the star, their record was 22 wins and 23 losses, ranking the ninth in the west. The Hornets suffered serious injuries in the season. The newly signed champion team member James Posey was injured after not playing a few games, and Tai Sen Chandler and Peja were depressed, and the fans’ high expectations also overwhelmed the team.
The greater reason why the Hornets agreed to the deal is that they have already borne the high contract in Chandler, Tai Sen. The total salary of the Hornets has exceeded the trigger line of the league luxury tax. If there is no change, the season will pay 760,000 luxury tax. The remaining two years of Chandler’s contract total 2.46 million US dollars. In the last season, the player option can be chosen to jump out of the contract.
Obviously, it is impossible for the Hornets to break up the duo Paul and West, and the contract of Peja Stojakovic is difficult to attract the interest of other teams. Therefore, it is very painful to give up Chandler’s contract of up to 1.23 million yuan in the season to avoid expensive luxury tax in the season. Although Tai Sen Chandler’s contract has player options after the end of the 1921 season, it is obviously unrealistic to let him give up his contract of 1.32 million yuan in the last year.
On January 29th, the Clippers made another eastward expedition against Chicago Bulls and narrowly won in overtime.
