ps:  ps: I got it wrong in the previous chapter. My brother signed Nike and my younger brother Adidas.

"Amare and I will go to the scene to cheer you on for you in your rookie challenge tonight, right Amare?"

Nash pulled Xiao Si, who was lukewarm to the two brothers and nodded completely to give Nash face. It was probably because this guy hadn't forgotten the blocked shots of the two in the game, especially the twins were both selected as the All-Star Game starter in the first season, which made the little bully who had been on the bench for so many years very dissatisfied, just like when he was not convinced by Yao Ming.

"Steve, we are opponents in tomorrow's three-point competition. You must be careful not to lose to me." Ji Guomori remembered that he participated in the three-point competition, and Nash also participated this year.

"This is not accurate. The three-pointers in the game are completely different from those in the three-point competition. Maybe I will be eliminated in the first round." Nash said with a smile. At his age, except for caring about the championship ring, other honors have been very indifferent to him. When it comes to honors, he even won the regular season MVP that Kobe had never won once. He just participated in the three-point competition with an entertainment attitude. Now he only had that ring in his eyes.

On the first day of the All-Star Weekend, there was only one competition, that is - the "Rookie Challenge".

The early rookie challenge was to divide the rookies of that year into two teams, and later changed to the Eastern Conference rookie team against the Western Conference rookie team. In 2001, it became a first-year rookie team to challenge the second-year rookie team.

The two of them are the main insiders designated by the first-grade team, and no one can beat them at the fourth and fifth positions. But who is the coach of the first-grade team this year? The league has not announced in advance, and it is obviously intended to be used as a gimmick to attract fans to watch and increase the ratings.

The coaches of the rookie teams in previous years were all assisted by assistant coaches of teams with the best record in the East and West teams. They also assisted a star as the team manager. However, this time, there seems to be a difference. The specific candidates for the coaches of the two teams have not been announced yet, and everyone will know until the game is played.

At the banquet that night, Billups sat at their table. Speaking of which, the MVP of the Pistons, who is nominally the Pistons, is their teammate after the All-Star Game. The two brothers are very polite to Billups, they know that this man can win the championship in the Pistons. Once he goes to the Nuggets, he immediately brings the Melon, who will never be able to break through the first round in his life to the Western Conference Finals, which is enough to show that he can adapt to different systems, and he is the key teacher wherever he is.

Their table became the focus of the banquet today, because not only were the twins and Billups, Nash and Skola of the Suns, Yao Ming and Scola of the Rockets, Yi Jianlian of the Bucks, and even Kobe and Gasol of the Lakers, there were even gorillas taking photos everywhere with their cameras. For some reason, James, who was not sure what he thought, actually sat with his teammate Daniel Gibson and took a photo with them, and took a photo with the twin brothers.

Of course, the gorilla and the little black snake looked at each other with no friendly eyes. These two are enemies, but they have no personal grudges. They are completely a disgust formed by the alliance deliberately created for the two, conflicts and competition. After all, the two new and old superstars, the 23rd and 24th, have conflicts and only gimmicks. Everyone is harmonious, so what else is there to report on?

Kobe was very unkind. During the banquet, he suddenly asked James anxiously: "Where are my three championship rings? LeBron, have you seen my three championship rings? Oh, my God! I think I have forgotten where my three championship rings have been put. Have you seen my three rings? They are gone, please help me find them."

James was dark and used a fork to slim up a shrimp and put it in his mouth: "Bryant, I'm very busy. My mom taught me not to talk when I eat."

“They mean I have won three championship rings.”

"What does it have to do with me!"

Kobe also inserted a piece of shrimp and said, "I seemed to tell you before eating that you may not even know what they look like. Each of them is like these delicious shrimp, which is equivalent to the NBA championship ring you have never had."

Upon hearing this, James put down the shrimp that was about to put into his mouth and sighed: "Boy, I'm working hard!"

Kobe put the shrimp in front of James: "Each one is like a delicious shrimp!"

James leaned back: "Bryant, take those shrimps away!"

"LeBron, you'll feel hungry..." Kobe said, putting the shrimp in his mouth, looking at the gorilla while chewing, "Wow, it's so delicious!"

James sighed deeply and pointed to the three rings on Yao Ming's hand: "Maybe you can find your three championship rings from Yao's hand."

Yao Ming twitched his lips, feeling that he shouldn't have borrowed Kobe's ring to see...

On February 17, at 19:30 p.m. US time, the first appetizer for the All-Star Weekend is about to begin in half an hour.

Taylor Swift and Christine, and of course the Panda sister Big Mouth Emma are all watching the game in front of TV.

Rookie Challenge Sometimes it plays better than the All-Star Game. As young people, no one is willing to admit defeat. Newborn calfs are not afraid of tigers. It is a difficult thing to get them to keep playing.

In each rookie tournament, both sides basically start to take real action as they play. In addition, the players of the two teams who can choose to participate in the rookie tournament are mostly rookies with outstanding athletic talents. The scene will undoubtedly be very good. The game is full of fast attacks, aerial relays and destructive dunks, and various explosive and difficult goals will make fans overwhelmed.

Yao Ming came to support the twins and Yi Jianlian today. In an interview before the game, he said, "This kind of game does not happen often today. Once a year, I am very happy to be able to sit on the sidelines and enjoy this game. At that time, I will hold a bucket of Coke in my hand and watch the game with popcorn. Of course, I support the first-year team and hope that they can challenge and succeed like me."

Nash also came to the scene today to cheer for the twin brothers. The guy forgot that he kept shouting back pain yesterday, and actually licked his face and said to the reporter: "The deepest impression this All-Star Weekend is the community service activities, helping those people who have suffered disasters to build housing. This makes so meaningful and left a deep impression on me. Do you know? Yesterday we moved bricks for a day and even went to lay bricks. During this period, we got a lot of joy and I enjoyed this time very much."

At this time, in the locker room of the first-year team, all the first-year players participating were preparing for the game. Ji Guomomi took his own exclusive sneakers and saw a person he didn't want to see here. Their coach was Kobe Bryant?

Kobe was very devoted at this moment. Nothing else, just because the coach of the second-year team opposite was the damn big shark O'Neal, who was his mortal enemy, so in today's game, Pan said he would win whatever he wanted.

"I am your coach. I think you all know me. Even if you don't know me, you should know my three rings."

Ji Guomeng and a group of rookies curled their lips in their hearts, and the little fox even secretly complained: "What's there to brag about? I'll carry three rings everywhere, and O'Neal has 4." He was thinking. Suddenly, he saw the schoolbag sitting beside him with a look of disdain. The little fox immediately whispered to Durant: "I think you will definitely surpass him."

Durant was stunned when he heard this. He thought to himself that this guy was talking to me? Then he saw Ji Guomeng nodding, as if saying: "That's right, I'm just talking to you."

"Thank you, you're great too~!" Durant was a little shy, and he looked like an honest child.

"No need to thank you, I'm talking about your iron number." Ji Guomomiya secretly added in his heart.

Kobe didn't see the two whispering, and was still mobilizing in front of the station with passion. Pan said with joy: "The first-grade team has not defeated the second-grade team for five years. Before the game, many people thought we could not do it either, but I don't think so. I know the energy contained in your bodies. Go on the court and tell those guys who underestimate you, they are wrong..."

"Coach, what tactics do we play?" Ji Guomeng raised his hand and asked.

Coach Kobe waved his hand and signaled Ji Guomo to sit down. He was very dissatisfied with the dead fox interrupting his speech. However, after looking at the time, the game was about to begin, so he could only stop the speech and set up tactics.

"Now I announce the starting lineup, point guard Michael Conley, shooting guard Navarro, small forward Kevin Durant, power forward discipline national humiliation, center discipline national hatred."

Kobe announced the starting lineup and began to set up tactics: "Today we play pick-and-roll, which is the easiest and most efficient offensive tactic. After Conley breaks through, he can directly attack the basket, but he has no chance to pass the basketball to Brother Pandas. Today he is the first catch point. If there is no chance to pass the ball to Brother Pandas, Kevin Durant and Brother Fox are the second catch point. You two have the chance to get the basketball and shoot, and if there is no chance, you pass the basketball to Brother Pandas. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" When many first-grade players answered, they couldn't help but look at Ji Guochou. Unexpectedly, in Kobe's eyes, Brother Panda was so important and actually took on such a heavy task.

At this time, even the person involved Ji Guoqiu himself did not expect Kobe to look down on him so much. The little fox said in his heart in a jealous tone: "Kobe wants to play with Duncan the most, so you, Duncan, will be favored by him."

Brother Panda did not answer and patted the space Yi around him. This kid was a little nervous today. After all, he was a compatriot. Ji Guoqiu said softly to Liandi, who is forever 18 years old: "Don't be nervous. Pay attention to running without the ball after playing. I will pass the ball to you at any time."

Space Yi nodded. In fact, he was older than Ji Guoqiu. At this time, he said, "Okay, thank you Brother Qiu."

Ji Guomo laughed in his heart: "I don't know why, but when I hear someone calling you Brother Qiu, I want to laugh."

After Kobe arranged the starting lineup and tactics, the staff knocked on the door to remind him that it was time for the appearance ceremony and it was time for them to play.

Today's first-grade lineup-

Organizing guard: Mike Conley (Memphis Grizzlies)

Scoring guard Juan Navarro (Memphis Grizzlies), Al Thorton (Boston Celtics)

Small forward: Kevin Durant (Seattle Supersonics)

Power forward: Ji Guomeng (Los Angeles Clippers), Louis Scola (Houston Rockets), Yi Jianlian (Milwaukee Bucks)

Center: Ji Guoqiu (Los Angeles Clippers), Al Horford (Atlanta Hawks)

Second grade team—

Organizational guards: Rajon Rondo (Boston Celtics), Jordan Famal (Los Angeles Lakers), Daniel Gibson (Cleveland Cavaliers)

Scoring guards: Brandon Roy (Portland Trail Blazers), Ronnie Brewer (Utah Jazz)

Small forward: Rudy Guy (Memphis Grizzlies)

Power forward: Lamarcus Aldridge (Portland Trail Blazers), Paul Millsap (Utah Jazz)

Center: Andrea Bagnani (Toronto Raptors)

The appearance ceremony in the rookie match is not complicated, and it is almost the same as the appearance ceremony in the ordinary game. It only increases the playing time of each player. Each person can get about 20 seconds of long shots. Those who like to perform can also take advantage of this time to dance or unique personal ritual to steal the scene.

The first-year team played first. Their appearance order has been arranged in the locker room. Ji Guoqiu and Ji Guomo were arranged by Kobe in the first and second place, and Durant was ranked last. There is nothing wrong with this order. This year's rookie is only these three, so they can be seen in Kobe's eyes. The other players, Pan, didn't care much, just look at the three people when they won.

DJ first read out the name Ji Guohuo loudly, and Panda Hero was the first to appear. The main light source had been turned off in the stadium, and the audience could still see clearly, but the stadium was already pitch black, and only colorful light columns were seen back and forth, and various lights were flowing and shining. The lighting system reflected the entire stadium with light. There were still light spots flowing and flickering everywhere, like an ocean of light.

Today's rookie match, domestic CCTV5 live broadcast, and two masters, Master Heli and Master Sun, were sent to the scene to comment. Their commentary seats were just in the middle of the commentary seats of TNT and ESPN, David Stern gave CCV enough face this year. This position is quite good and very proud.

Master Heli has interviewed Yao Ming and Space Yi before the game. They were originally planning to interview the twins.

In this All-Star Game, the two brothers are already one of the focus. They are the starters of the All-Star Game, and they also participated in the three-point match and the dunk contest. They will definitely start the rookie match. If they were domestic players, the domestic media would probably have praised them to the sky. Even now, domestic media will regard them as the two strongest insiders in the new generation of the league.

Just imagine, with so many topics, the two brothers' fame is not only increasing in Asia and China, but even in the United States, they have surpassed Durant of the same class. However, due to the above orders, CCTV finally canceled the established interview.

Speaking of Durant, Tiedu also wanted to sign up for the three-point competition, but the league did not invite him to participate at all. The slam dunk competition and the three-point competition are not just that you can participate if you say your dunk is good or your three-point shooting is accurate. First of all, you have to reflect it in the data so that the league will invite you.

Ji Guomeng's three-point shooting percentage is close to 42%, and his shots are large enough and valuable enough to receive the league invitation. Looking at Durant's three-point shooting, less than 30%, the league obviously would not consider inviting a player with a shooting percentage of less than 30% to participate in the three-point competition. It's simply joking.

Ji Guochou jogged out of the player passage, and a pure white light immediately hit him, covering him like a shadow. Brother Panda waved his arms to the fans who cheered him. At this moment, he was the focus of the entire court.

The only drawback is that Ji Guochou is too low-key. The first appearance shows that he is the one who is favored by this rookie, but he has no personal celebration at all. Phil Knight, the founder of Nike in the private room, couldn't help but reach out to cover his face. If he had known that Panda Brother was so low-key and introverted, he would have signed the Fox Brother. That boy heard that he was very sexy.

Just as Phil Knight was thinking, he saw Ji Guomomori run out after less than 20 seconds of his brother's appearance.
Chapter completed!
