Chapter 1546 The All-Star Game Is Here
The continuous back-to-back battles made the Celtic soldiers a little tired.
Especially the second team, who had played for a long time before, seemed to have worked harder than Qin Tao and the others.
But on their faces, you can't see any complaints or displeasure, but instead, they show bright smiles from time to time.
The reason is very simple.
Originally they were just puzzle pieces of the team, and their playing time was also limited.
But because the team considered the great cause of the three consecutive championships and the consideration of the next game, they naturally gave them more playing time.
What this meant, none of them knew.
Anyone wants to have a set of championship halos, and at the same time, they can see the statistics in their eyes.
By the end of the season, whether it is the creation of the three consecutive championships in the new century, or whatever, their contracts will be at least two or three times more expensive. This is the value of the championship team and champion players.
It's fine for now.
After all, the All-Star game is about to start, and it also declares that they have got their own vacation time.
But for Qin Tao and Jokic, this year's All-Star Game cannot be completely rested.
The candidates for this year's main game have been announced long ago. Qin Tao and Durant are the two unshakable starters in the East except for James.
As for Thomas Jr. and Jokic, they will participate in the next series of activities and competitions.
Like little Thomas.
When he participated in the skill challenge competition last year, he was only one step away, and it could even be regarded as an "arrangement" by the league, which made him lose to the big man, Karl-Anthony Towns.
This year he will continue to challenge this individual event and try to win this year's challenge title.
at the same time.
In view of the continued strength of Thomas Jr., after being elected as the NBA star last year, he still lived up to expectations and entered the All-Star this year.
But because the competition in the Eastern Conference is very fierce now, don't think about it as a starter, he is still one of the backup stars.
It can also be seen from this that Thomas Jr. can still kill a bloody road even when the Celtics have Qin Tao and Durant. It can be seen that his personal strength is very strong!
However, the most unexpected thing is that even Qin Tao felt incredible after watching it, that there is already a team that intends to offer Thomas Jr. a one-time maximum salary price, hoping that he can pay for the salary after the contract expires. Income under the command.
For such news, I usually just listen to it. After all, Thomas Jr. is very capable, but his innate height problem makes him not ideal in some scouting reports.
one more.
This kind of news was originally just a rumor, but this news came from Zarya's mouth, so it can be said that it is a certainty.
As such.
While Qin Tao was surprised, he also felt a little relieved.
Since he came to this era and came to the Celtics, Thomas Jr.'s situation can be said to be clear.
And because of his strong talent and the limited status of Thomas Jr. in the team, this guy didn't have a hot head and did some unreasonable things.
all in all.
The current Thomas Jr. and the guy in his previous life with his nostrils up in the contract year are definitely two people!
As long as he can maintain his mentality and see the reality clearly, then don't talk about a truckload of big words, an annual salary of 500 million is probably no problem.
Unlike Thomas Jr., who is bullish all the way, Jokic strangely does not have too many gossips.
As for why.
Qin Tao and everyone in the Celtics are very clear, even the outside world is very clear!
It is absolutely impossible for Jokic to be traded by the Celtics!
Even for other teams that are generally making long-term plans, it is almost impossible to predict Jokic.
Because Jokic is very, very suitable for the Celtics system, and even very, very suitable for Qin Tao and Durant.
It is no exaggeration to say that his coping ability, his increasingly strong ability to protect the frame, and even his shooting range as far as the three-point line are enough to become one of the cornerstones of the Celtics.
If Qin Tao and Durant are the ones who make the final decision, then Jokic is the glue in the Celtics team, or even the catalyst.
so.
Everyone knows the value of his trade, but if he wants to get it before he is 30 years old, unless Qin Tao and Durant fall apart, it will be impossible!
As for Zubac and Dario Salic, and even others, they have not reached the height of Jokic for the time being, and the future is still somewhat unpredictable.
And after the Celtics have basically determined who will participate in the All-Star Game this year, the upcoming All-Star Weekend will begin next.
The first thing to fire the first shot is the rookie training match starting on the 17th.
Supernovas Porzingis, Karl-Anthony Towns, Jokic and others will appear one after another.
In the words of the outside media, the future alliance will be theirs!
at the same time.
The outside world also lamented that there have not been too many high-quality big men in the past two years, and their rise one after another is really unexpected.
But in the training match, the performance of these guys was almost meaningless.
Especially the three brothers, many people expected a lot from them, but who would have thought that each one of them, like mascots, performed a few juggling operations on the field, and then they happily started running back and forth.
Others are different.
The rising star of the Suns, Devin Booker, is really chic.
It seemed that as long as the basketball was delivered to him, he would always be able to find the "family" easily. In just ten minutes, this guy scored six three-pointers by himself, a total of eighteen points!
By the end of this training game, Booker is definitely a well-deserved MVP.
follow closely.
Various media immediately turned on the touting mode, directly blowing Booker to a height that he was too embarrassed to watch.
But it is undeniable that Booker's talent is really strong!
His physical condition may not be the best, but his keen sense of scoring is not what ordinary people can have.
Coupled with his age and his attitude towards basketball, the future is boundless.
Post-match press conference.
For today's training game, the media present began to interact with the players in a family carnival.
After all, the All-Star Game is a super show. If you don’t know what to do and ask some silly questions here, let alone the players will say something when they are unhappy, I am afraid that the league will directly blacklist such people.
However, picking things up is still one of their responsibilities, and they immediately asked Porzingis, Downs, Jokic and Booker.
Ask them who will be the brightest star in tomorrow's Rookie Challenge!
For this kind of question, these guys have nothing to say, they all laughed and laughed, and giving them a direct answer is of course my answer.
I've been sick for a long time, and I'll finish this month
