Now the league compares Kobe in the East with himself in the West. Many people say that Kobe is the strongest rookie in this class.

And I have to be strong all my life, how can I endure this? There is only one strongest player in this draft class, and that is me, Allen Iverson!

Big Ben didn't have any scheming and said what he wanted. Iverson also knew this. Next, he told Iverson how the Eastern Conference wanted to deal with Kobe.

After hearing this, Iverson showed no serious look at the moment. He didn't expect that Kobe would follow Jordan's old path. You know, since the Jordan incident, the league has basically not seen this kind of conspiracy in the All-Star Game for a long time.

, but today the All-Star Rookie Challenge appears again.

What does this mean? It means that the Eastern Conference has recognized Kobe's strength and believes that Kobe has reached the height of Jordan's rookie season. Otherwise, who would do this!

As for myself, does the West also recognize me?

Iverson looked around and found that none of the people in this group had that kind of awe for him, and some of them only spoke flatteringly.

In fact, what he wants is very simple, that is, to defeat Kobe in an official game and get the MVP. But now it's better. The Eastern Conference will definitely give Kobe a stumbling block. Iverson will not take advantage of these underhanded tricks.

, he just feels pity for Kobe, Kobe is about to become the second Jordan...

"Forget it, let's not worry about Kobe's things. We just have to take care of ourselves!" Iverson doesn't care about the others, but he must take his younger brother Ben with him. This is how to deal with Kobe. If he is dealing with

If he or I were Big Ben, then Iverson would definitely make a huge fuss.

"Allen, don't worry, I'm not stupid. I don't care about the Eastern Conference's business! My task today is to grab the rebounds and hand the ball to you to score, and finally win the game and win the rookie title.

MVP of the game!" Big Ben burst into laughter showing his white teeth.

After hearing this, Iverson's eyes began to get a little misty, and he patted Ben on the shoulder.

I would rather the MVP of this Rookie Challenge is given to you, then I will applaud and cheer for you in the audience. This is what Iverson is saying, and what he wants to say but cannot say out loud!

He is really a silly guy, and he is also a very cute silly guy!

The most fortunate thing for Iverson in his life is that Ben was always by his side when he was playing basketball. It can be said that Ben is definitely his brother now, a brother who is closer than a real brother.

They played ball together in college, picked up girls together, and did bad things together...

There are too many things together, all of which I did with Ben by my side. It can be said that without Ben, Iverson would not be where I am today.

This sentence is indeed true. It is precisely because of Ben, who selflessly delivered shells to Iverson in the penalty area, that Iverson was able to debut as the No. 1 pick.

Big Ben is too important to Iverson.

…

The rookie teams from both sides are about to take the field.

Here in the East, head coach Jim Clemons is always wary of the monkeys currently under his command who are ready to cause trouble.

Jim Clemons felt his head grow bigger when he saw each of these people showing extremely excited expressions.

It is obvious that they are planning to trick Kobe together!

But he couldn't admit it, and he had to deny it even after the game was over. After all, it was not a glorious thing, and it couldn't be justified.

"What's going on here in the East? All of them have been staring at Kobe?"

"Hey, it's the same in the West, everyone is staring at Kobe as if they were discussing it?"

"What the hell is going on?"

The Lakers were the team that wanted Kobe the most at the beginning of the season. At this moment, the Lakers' top management, including the Buss family, also came to watch the Rookie Challenge.

In addition to the old Bass, sitting in the Bass family were sister and brother Jenny Bass and Jim Bass, but Jim Bass had a playful expression on his face at this moment.

Yes, this plan against Kobe was the work of Jim Buss. The reason is very simple. His sister Jeanie Buss wanted to recruit Kobe to the Lakers. As long as Kobe came to Los Angeles, his sister could have more opportunities in the Lakers.

More rights to speak.

The old and immortal Jerry West has already recruited "Shark" O'Neal, and if Jeanie Buss recruits Kobe, then he will do nothing in the Lakers!

You may ask here why Jim Bass can also go to New York to recruit Corbizza in person. Wouldn't it be better?

But in fact, Jim Buss had no choice but to do this. Didn't he want to personally recruit this league's huge sum of money to build a new star? No, he thought, but he couldn't do it.

Of course, if this is to be blamed, it must be blamed on old Bass.

Is there any comparison between the team's marketing manager Jenny Buss and myself, who is in charge of the team's "overseas" affairs?

What is "overseas" affairs? It means that players in Europe or Canada belong to you. If you recruit Kobe as the person in charge of the team's "overseas" affairs, then Kobe will only have one gesture, pointing to the door to invite you.

go out.

On the contrary, the title of team marketing manager is much more prestigious. At least Kobe will invite you in to talk about his life ideals.

This is the reason why Jim Buss wants to touch Kobe, that is, to disgust Kobe. Of course, in addition to the idea of ​​revenge against Jeanie Buss, there is also a lack of understanding of Kobe. You are not a wealthy family like the Lakers.

If you are willing to come, you still want to go there and go to the outer space!

Most of the spectators on the sidelines were confused. They really didn't know what was about to happen.

And a small number of all-star players who had already known about it all laughed in unison, especially Malone and Stockton of the Jazz. They hated Bruce's New York Han people. It was someone's turn to want to deal with Kobe.

Yes, they were happy to watch the fun.

Why do Malone and Stockton of the Jazz hate Bruce's New Yorkers so much?

This starts with the official selection of the 50 greatest players in history on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the birth of the NBA last year.

This selection of the 50 greatest players in NBA history is selected by votes from retired players, coaches and reporters. It can be said that if current players are selected into this list, their historical status in the NBA will definitely be raised to another level.

This was originally a happy thing, but what made Malone and Stockton angry was that their names were not included in this list. In terms of strength and reputation, they should be included in it. This made Malone and Stockton angry.

Tocton couldn't figure it out.

Even Jazz owner Larry Miller found it baffling why these two talented players couldn't get in.

Larry Miller didn't believe it. He called Stern himself and asked Stern. Stern just said, "The selection of the top 50 superstars this time will not only be based on strength, but also on character. What are you guys doing?"

Don’t you have a good idea of ​​the character of the two of them?

Selection based on character?

When did this rule appear and why didn't he know about it?

You must know that if there are active players selected for this list, it will also be good for the Jazz. At least many players will join the Jazz in the future because this team has produced superstars.

But now, to directly obliterate such an honorable thing, this has to make people angry.

So Larry Miller was angry. He never expected that Stern would do this.

He yelled at Stern for half an hour, just to get Stern to cancel this ridiculous decision.
Chapter completed!
