Chapter 1017 Butler: A man is born between heaven and earth...
In this game, the Knicks performed softly as expected, and the Trail Blazers ultimately won without any suspense.
Wang Zelin played two and a half quarters and played 23 minutes, scoring 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal.
However, there were no eye-catching statistics, but the fans and media present were still very excited, because Wang Zelin and Ajiali fed each other dog food from time to time in the second half, which made them foresee that a drama of "two women fighting for one husband" was about to take place.

Kendall Jenner, what are you waiting for?
You, a man, are so obviously on the same page, why are you still standing there?
Hiss! Hiss quickly!
Facts have proved that not only the people of China, but people everywhere in the world like gossip very much, especially gossip about celebrities.
But without exception, they all treated this matter with the attitude of watching the fun, rather than with contempt.
Some people may be confused about this, but don’t forget that Lu Xun once said: The romantic deeds of ordinary people are usually not understood by the world, but the romantic deeds of celebrities are often called celebrity anecdotes!
Is it ironic? Is it unreasonable?
But this is just a fact of life!
So, Saonian, keep working hard and strive to become a strong person as soon as possible.
Work hard and the days will become sweeter and sweeter...
…
…
That night, Wang Zelin, who had the urge to learn Indian, finished the interview after the game, got into Ajiali's car and left the arena, and went to the restaurant she had booked in advance, ready to recharge her batteries.
Not long ago, the villa area on East 51st Street in Manhattan.
Ajiali drove her car and stopped in front of a villa. According to herself, this was an address her old father chose for him in a wealthy area of Manhattan, New York.
Today, this place will become a holy place for the two of them to travel in the ocean of knowledge.
The people of the Great Celestial Dynasty have always had compatibility that is different from other nations in the world, which makes Wang Zelin very interested in the customs and customs of India.
In this regard, Ajiali was also happy to teach. After the teaching, she decided to invite her boyfriend to watch the Bollywood blockbuster in her hometown, an indoor sitcom mixed with dance.
Wang Zelin had no reason not to agree.
As the sitcom played, Ajiali became more and more immersed in it, and she was a little immersed in it and couldn't extricate herself.
Wang Zelin also enjoyed it and couldn't help but admire that Indian yoga is very good, and Ajiali is very talented in this area. She has been learning and exercising since she was in elementary school, and she works very hard.
Of course, facts have proven that she is indeed worthy of praise in this regard.
…
the next day.
early morning.
After getting up and washing up, I looked at Ajiali, who was sleeping soundly, and Wang Zelin slapped her butt and left.
The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard.
At 10 a.m., Wang Zelin and his teammates boarded a charter flight back to Portland.
After four consecutive away games, there are only three games left in November, all of which are at home, which is very beneficial to the Trail Blazers.
At noon, the team returned to Portland.
Two days later, on the night of the 25th, the Pelicans played at home.
In the last game against the Pelicans, Butler scored a season-high 32 points and became the only Pelicans player to fight to the end of the massacre. This not only made New Orleans fans feel
It was very gratifying, and it also made him popular among many media.
We are about to enter the December game. Although this year's All-Star voting will not take place until after the Christmas Day game and will start at midnight on the 26th, Butler has already been regarded by many media as one of the best forward players this season.
They also agreed that he is likely to become one of the Western Conference substitutes during this year's All-Star Weekend.
It has to be said that Butler's tough style is very rare in the current league, especially among players of his generation. It is almost impossible to pick anyone with a tougher playing style than him.
Therefore, when Butler performs well, he always appears as a tragic hero, easily gaining sympathy from fans and the media.
Different from previous years, this year's All-Star player voting will not only involve fans but also NBA players and media.
Since the 1974-75 season, fans have participated in NBA All-Star voting for the first time.
From this year onwards, fan votes will only account for 50% of the total votes, and player and media votes will account for 25% of the total votes.
Players can also vote for their teammates or themselves.
This is another unprecedented reform in the history of NBA All-Stars. This move by Bald Hua will not talk about the future good or bad.
At least with the current popularity, he has already made a lot of money.
One thing to say, from a businessman's perspective, this guy's business talent is truly outstanding.
Let’s get back to Butler.
Everyone knows that All-Star games have nothing to do with him.
On the Western side, with the veteran superstar Kobe Bryant and the current number one player Wang Zelin, two of the Western Conference quotas are taken. The remaining three, Curry, Harden and Durant who are in hot form this year, are undoubtedly the most powerful contenders.
By.
What's more, Anthony's return to the Western Conference this year has made the competition for Western All-Star forwards even more intense.
Although the All-Star substitutes are still selected by the head coaches of the Eastern and Western teams, the reform of this year's All-Star voting has also made this year's All-Stars full of more uncertainties.
Otherwise, there would not have been such a big controversy at the beginning of the reform.
There's one more thing.
After a summer of argumentation by the Trail Blazers management, the 2017 All-Star Game, the 66th All-Star Game, will be held at the Rose Garden Arena in Portland on February 20, Kyoto time.
As the dominant team in the league for the past three seasons, the Trail Blazers are now at their peak and have become the public enemy of all teams in the league with great momentum.
But before Wang Zelin and Lillard joined the team, the Trail Blazers' owners, except for Bill Walton's championship year, basically didn't win much and spent most of their time as spectators.
As an NBA team established in 1970, the Trail Blazers' team age cannot be said to be very long, but it is definitely not short either.
The Trail Blazers were established much earlier than the Hornets, Pelicans, Raptors, Grizzlies and other teams.
But except for Memphis, the cities where the other three teams are located have already hosted the event.
The results of it!
The city of Portland, where the Trail Blazers are located, has never been recognized by the league's top brass. Even in the 46 years since the team was founded, it has never held an All-Star Weekend.
The All-Star Weekend is the league's largest annual entertainment event. No matter which city it is located in, it symbolizes the face of that city and is also a supreme honor.
As the only two teams to win three consecutive championships in the new century, the OK Lakers dynasty soon settled in Los Angeles again for the annual All-Star Weekend in 2004 after achieving three consecutive championships.
Now the Portland Trail Blazers have just completed three consecutive championships and are in the limelight. If under such circumstances, the All-Star Weekend still cannot be held in Portland, it would be really unreasonable.
After a summer of meetings, the league finally decided to host the 66th All-Star Weekend at the Rose Garden Arena, the home of the Portland Trail Blazers!
Under the leadership of Wang Zelin, the Trail Blazers opened a new chapter for this city.
Portland is about to usher in a breakthrough of 0!
…
In the game on the night of the 25th, Pelicans star Jimmy Butler continued his tough game style. Even if he faced the defending champion Trail Blazers, he was ready to fight until the last minute.
Unfortunately, the disparity in strength between the two sides destined him to be unable to fight until the last moment.
After three quarters, the Trail Blazers led the Pelicans by a huge 32 points, and the game basically lost all suspense.
Unwilling to be humiliated, the Pelicans coach quickly replaced the main lineup. Butler was pressed on the bench and could only look at the direction of the scoreboard reluctantly.
At this moment, no one knew how uncomfortable Butler felt.
The difficult childhood experience has long trained Butler's ability to withstand stress to an extremely abnormal level. From a poor child who was constantly disliked by his mother and eventually expelled him from home, he has grown up to the current NBA All-Star. He has already had enough.
Suffering in every aspect of life.
At the same time, Butler also developed an extremely proud heart.
He can accept his temporary failure, and at worst, he can train even more abnormally hard when he goes back, so that he can regain his performance next time.
However, he must not accept that he continues to fail.
However, in the city of New Orleans and staying in the Pelicans team, he could not see the day when he could defeat the Trail Blazers, nor could he see any hope of winning the championship...
Yes, no one would have thought that the boss of such a famously bad team would actually "dream" of a championship in his heart.
If a person has no dreams, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?
There is no doubt that he, Jimmy Butler, has such a persevering championship heart!
Beep~~~
After thinking about it for an unknown amount of time, the buzzer symbolizing the end of the game finally reached Butler's ears.
After Butler got up, he didn't bother to look at the scoreboard. He knew without thinking that the Pelicans lost another big score tonight.
He turned his head and decided to take one last look at his teammates.
Not far away, he saw the role players who had just come off the court and were laughing and joking.
Surrounding him were the main players of the team who were talking to each other with nonchalant expressions... His only friend, Jrue Holiday, was still out tonight due to injury.
To his left is head coach Alvin Gentry, whose face is numb and his head is buried in a quail shape.
An unprecedented feeling of despair filled Butler's body.
Butler took a deep breath and made a major decision in his heart: "Perhaps, he really should break up with this city. Goodbye, New Orleans fans..."
A man born between heaven and earth, how can he live in depression for a long time under human beings?
After being traded from the Bulls to the Pelicans as a bargaining chip, Buckler was initially full of ambitions because he felt that he had finally escaped the sea of misery and became the boss of an NBA team.
Even though this team is very weak now!
Even though he will come from the east to the extremely involutionary Wild West!
No matter how difficult the road ahead is, Butler always believes that he can solve it one by one and lead the Pelicans to create a new tomorrow.
After all, he had gone through so many hardships as a child, let alone now?
but……
Butler looked up towards the Trail Blazers bench. After the game, the winner, the Trail Blazers, was celebrating wildly.
His eyes finally fixed on the figure wearing jersey No. 36, and he felt sad and yearning for it at the same time.
On the one hand, with Trail Blazers No. 36, he finally saw the horror of talent. After two seasons, he clearly realized that if he stayed here all the time, even if he could maintain his status as the so-called "team boss",
But he never imagined in his life that he could defeat the opponent and taste the championship.
On the other hand, he extremely yearns to become a big winner like Trail Blazers No. 36 and be able to bask in the glory of victory.
I really long for the day when he can be like that guy and embrace the supreme glory of victory!
As long as he leaves this city and the Pelicans, he believes that with his own efforts, there will be a day, definitely!
…
On Wang Zelin's side, he was still immersed in the joy of the team's victory. He probably never expected that tonight's game would be the last straw that broke the camel's back for Butler.
The toughest man is not willing to be a loser all the time, and finally makes up his mind to give up his status as the boss of a weak team in the New Orleans Pelicans, break with his current comfort zone, and start from scratch!
Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't take it too seriously.
Jimmy Butler is undoubtedly a worthy opponent.
But precisely because he was an opponent, Wang Zelin could not have any other emotions for Jiba other than simple appreciation and respect.
Not just Jiba, but all his contemporaries and future challengers, no matter who he is, they are all a footnote to his or her path to greatness.
Since you are an opponent, be prepared to be suppressed.
Unless... one day Jiba suddenly thought about it and chose to join if he couldn't beat him. He decided to win a championship ring with Wang in the future and realize his dream of becoming a champion in his career.
If that day really comes, he really won't mind leading a man who was praised by countless fans as the toughest man in the league in his previous life.
In that era when the small ball storm swept the league, Jimmy Butler was a player he admired very much. If one day the two of them could play on the same team, maybe some exciting stories would break out.
On the 27th, the Trail Blazers will play against the Mosaics again at home.
As Wang Zelin asserted before, this Mosaic team is really not weak!
In this game, Harden and Anthony's outside shooting finally proved it once. Once they are accurate, they are really good!
From the beginning to the end, this game had at least 10 alternating leads. The two sides persisted until the last moment. With 1.7 seconds left in the game, the Trail Blazers temporarily led by three points.
The Mosaic team arranged the full-court tactics. At this time, Harden had already recorded a super triple-double with rebounds, and was the best scorer and assister in the game.
Of course, Anthony was very impressive, scoring 33 points. It was precisely because the two exploded and scored 70 points together that the Mosaics were able to hold on with the Trail Blazers until the last moment.
In the last timeout, Coach Terry and Wang Zelin discussed repeatedly and finally focused on defense on Harden, who scored higher.
Unfortunately, D'Antoni had anticipated this step in advance, and he decided to give the last chance to Anthony, who had conflicts with him during the Knicks.
It is precisely because of the influence of the Knicks era that the Trail Blazers, including Wang Zelin, were all directly shown off by D'Antoni.
In the last 1.7 seconds, Harden and Anthony began to cross paths from both sides. Harden, as a decoy, successfully attracted the Trail Blazers' three-man double-team. Anthony received the pass at a 45-degree position on the left, turned around decisively, and fired a three-pointer.
…
"Beep~"
As soon as he took the shot, the red light came on, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the orange-red basketball spinning in the air.
"Whoosh!"
With the beautiful sound of the basketball hitting the net, Anthony showed his true qualities as a key player and hit the perfect shot.
With 121 tied, both sides will enter overtime.
This is also the first time this season that the Trail Blazers have been forced into overtime. The terrifying combat effectiveness shown by the Mosaic team tonight has made many teams look forward to it.
I never expected that the strength of the Mosaic team would be so terrifying!
