Chapter 798 The Ins and Outs
"I'm boiling! What are you doing?"
The next morning, from 8 to [-] o'clock.
Wang Zelin woke up, turned on the phone screen subconsciously, and saw dozens of missed calls displayed on it, his brain suddenly buzzed, and he immediately woke up.
Looking at the missed call ID, 17 were called by James, 11 were called by Curry, 6 were called by Harden, and George and Drummond also sent him a few text messages.
"What are these people going crazy about?"
Wang Zelin's head was full of black lines. There were so many people calling him in the early morning, and all of them were muscular men. Who would be confused.
Forget it, it's all like this anyway, don't be in a hurry, take a bath first, and ask what's going on after breakfast.
Gently pushing away Jenna's long legs wrapped around his waist, Wang Zelin went downstairs to take a bath and was just about to have breakfast.
Less than half an hour later, the phone rang again.
"Hi, I'm Wang Zelin."
Wang Zelin answered the phone while eating breakfast.
"Oh, my God! Are you answering the phone? You really are, Wang. I called you more than a dozen times last night. If my agent hadn't reminded me that the Blazers team is off today, I probably forgot about it."
"What happened to LeBron? Did something big happen?"
Wang Zelin wondered, thinking, when he was taking a bath and reading the news just now, he didn't see any headlines during this period.
"Oh, my brother, have you forgotten that our dance troupe's annual all-star opening performance?"
James complained over there.
"Cough, this is..."
Wang Zelin gave a dry cough to cover up his embarrassment.
I'm going, how did I forget about this?
However, in order to maintain his image, he still said stubbornly: "How could I forget, in fact, I have already prepared, and I plan to find a suitable time to surprise you all!"
"Sir, what is our theme this year?" James asked immediately.
Wait, Si Guoyi?
Hearing this familiar word, Wang Zelin almost thought that it wasn't James on the other end of the phone, but someone from the Sakura country who had a good life...
But James' voice cannot be faked, so there is only one explanation.
Tsk tsk tsk, it seems that our little emperor is also a fellow!
Seeing that Wang Zelin didn't speak for a while, James suddenly realized that he might be too radical, so he didn't continue to ask about the theme of this year's opening show.
Wang Zelin has already said that this is a surprise prepared for everyone in the dance troupe, so it doesn't matter if I bear it for a few more days.
Then James said very positively:
"Wang, how about this? Let's stay the same. You are responsible for the content of the opening performance, and I will inform Curry and Harden."
"By the way, I forgot to tell you. For this year's All-Star Game in Toronto, I have already rented a venue near the Raptors' home stadium. I will send you the address. When the time comes, everyone can just gather there."
"One more thing, AD told me before, he also wants to join our dance troupe this year and become a member of our big family, what do you think?"
Seeing what they said, Wang Zelin blushed!
It seems that it was the same last year. If James hadn't taken the initiative to remind him, he probably would have forgotten about the opening show of the All-Star Game.
Sometimes he even felt that James was not the one who proposed to form the dance troupe in the first place.
He couldn't help feeling ashamed when he thought that he, the rightful owner, didn't care about James.
But then again, being friends with James is really nice.
Especially for a person like him who doesn't pay much attention to details in life, after meeting James who not only does everything by himself, but also takes care of his friends' emotions in communication, the two of them get along very happily.
"No problem, LeBron, let's arrange it as you said..." Wang Zelin finally came back to his senses, "I assure you, our new dance this year will definitely catch everyone's eyes, and we will definitely give you a big surprise then!"
"Wang, your musical talent is really outstanding, no wonder you and Damien are so popular no matter whether you release an album or a single..."
……
……
"Beep beep..."
The two talked on the phone for half an hour before Wang Zelin put down the phone.
Eh wait, there seems to be something wrong.
Ah bah, what a phone call, he was clearly having a normal communication with James.
Putting aside this weird idea quickly, Wang Zelin started a brainstorming session.
He raised it!
Don't look at the good promise on the phone, but until now, I don't have the slightest idea about the opening performance of this year's All-Stars.
What should we dance this year?
Thinking of the content of the chat with James before, and listening to this guy, Anthony Davis also wants to be a member of the dance troupe this year.
I almost forgot that there are also George and Drummond. The reason why those two called themselves so many times is probably for the same thing as James.
Today is February 2th, and there is only one week left before the 6 All-Star Weekend on the 13th.
Prior to this, as early as January 1, the NBA had already announced the results of the final round of voting.
In the end, with 3 votes, Wang Zelin was elected as the NBA All-Star Weekend vote leader for four consecutive years.
It is worth mentioning that with 318 million votes, Wang Zelin successfully broke the record of 09 million votes held by the 315 All-Star voter Dwight Howard, becoming the most in history!
At the same time, he is also the second king of 300 million votes in history after Howard!
After successfully winning the votes, the NBA officially announced the starting lineup and substitute lineup for the 16th All-Star Game. The list is as follows.
The starting five Tigers in the East:
Kyrie Irving + Dwyane Wade + LeBron James + Paul George + Anthony Davis;
Substitute Seven:
Andre Drummond, Carmelo Anthony, DeMarcus Cousins, Derrick Rose, Kyle Lowry, Jimmy Butler, DeMar DeRozan;
The starting five tigers in the West:
Stephen Curry + Russell Westbrook, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, Wang Zelin;
Substitute Seven:
James Harden, Brooke Griffin, Chris Paul, Klay Thompson, Pau Gasol, Damian Lillard, LaMarcus Aldridge.
That's right, the three Portland players were once again selected for the All-Star Game together. After the news was announced, it immediately aroused the carnival of countless fans, because this symbolized the league's high recognition of the Trail Blazers.
In addition, the Lakers and Cavaliers also have 3 players selected for the All-Star Game. Coupled with the Trail Blazers, this may be the first time in history that three teams have 3 players selected for the All-Star together.
This not only represents an unprecedented event, but also represents an unprecedented monopoly.
Therefore, after the announcement of the list of players for this All-Star Game, it immediately caused dissatisfaction among fans of many teams, especially fans in some small markets.
And this just reflects the increasingly polarized trend in the overall strength gap between teams in today's league.
In this increasingly impetuous era, it is doomed that the survival soil of the small ball market will be further compressed.
If a team in a small ball market wants to seek development in the future, there are probably only two possibilities.
Either reform the league, or look forward to a strong man in the draft.
