After the 76ers, Yao Ming and Francis did not go back to Houston with the team. They went straight to Atlanta. This year's All-Star Weekend will be held in Atlanta.

Mobley is a pity. His data is quite good, averaging 18 points and 5 rebounds per game. With the Rockets' record, if he was in the Eastern Conference, he might have been on the All-Star bench.

Unfortunately, he is in the West, Steve Nash, Gary Payton and Marbury. These people are more qualified to be in the All-Star than him.

The number of players that the Rockets have entered the All-Star lineup this year has unfortunately stopped at 2.

But this is also very happy.

After all, both are the starters of the All-Star Western Conference lineup!

This is enough for the card!

This year's All-Star Weekend is the 53rd All-Star held by the NBA. The Atlanta Hawks became the final organizer. It is worth mentioning that until 2012, this was the last All-Star Game hosted by the East. After that, all hosts were Western teams.

Atlanta is a gathering place for the top ten richest people in America, and there are many rich people in the United States worth more than ten million yuan. If so many rich people can settle here, there will naturally be no problems in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Yao Ming and Francis arrived one day in advance, so they had time to go around.

Alexander is really good. In terms of economy, companies like Coca-Cola and Southern Bell are all here; in terms of entertainment, the city hosts more than 30 music festivals every year, with five professional teams including the Hawks; in terms of diet, there are even a variety of choices, and even Southeast Asian food can be found here...

When the two of them finished their meals, drinks, and fun, the day also ended.

Atlanta attaches great importance to this All-Star Weekend. Posters and banners related to All-Star Weekend can be seen everywhere on the streets and alleys. When Francis and Yao Ming were walking on the road, they were also recognized by many fans. They have been taking photos and taking photos for at least a dozen times.

When the two of them returned to the hotel they had booked for them, other All-Star players arrived one after another.

"I'll take you to meet a few friends later!" As a veteran All-Star, Francis is preparing to take Yao Ming, who is coming to All-Star for the first time, to broaden his connections.

Yao Ming nodded and followed Frances.

"This is……"

"Hey, Yao, I'm glad to see you!"

"This one is..."

"Yao, hey, man, I didn't expect you to come so early. I wanted to talk to you a long time ago!"

"Yao, listen to me, this guy next..."

"Wow, let me see who this is, Yao, you beat us up in the last game, man!"

I met three in a row.

Francis turned his head and prepared to leave.

Yao Ming shouted: "Hey, man, where are you going?"

Francis looked speechless: "You go and say hello yourself. I feel that they are more enthusiastic to you than to me!"

"Hahahahaha!" Yao Ming laughed into an emoticon.

He didn't expect that he was so popular now. The enthusiasm of these guys to him made him a little flattered. Sure enough, in this alliance, strength is the best introduction.

After a free evening passed, the first day of the All-Star Weekend officially arrived.

It was also starting from this All-Star Weekend that the NBA Celebrity Competition officially appeared on the historical stage of the NBA All-Star Weekend.

Of course, the influence is not that great now.

Unlike big stars like Justin Bieber who were later invited to participate, most of the celebrity competitions in this time are still retired celebrities and players from NBA.

However, there were many stars on the sidelines.

Yao Ming once again became the focus. Before the game officially started, many celebrities took the initiative to take photos with him. In the words of the later, Yao Ming had become famous.

He is a very talkative star throughout the United States!

He has a bit of a local American personality and his strong strength, which has allowed all Americans to meet a unique international player!

It also allowed Yao Ming to have certain celebrity fans in the United States.

As for the rest of the part, I also have a strong curiosity about Yao Ming.

"Hey, man, I'm so interested in you. If you have time, let's do some big moves!" Adam also came to take photos, the director who later filmed "Yao Mingnian" for Yao Mingming in 2004.

Yao Ming nodded and repeated his words: "If you have time!"

The game officially began soon. Since it was a retired player and a female player from wnba, the quality of the game was definitely not as good as that of the official game, but everyone was quite interesting to watch.

Especially when these old guys were fighting on the field, it was a wave of memory killing.

After the Celebrity Competition, the Rookie Challenge started immediately.

Yao Ming chose to withdraw from this rookie challenge. As for the reason, there is a very simple reason: no joke!

Yao Ming really couldn't be interested in playing those second-year students in 2001. Compared to playing against them, it would be better to teach young Zhan, young melon, and young cheeks a lesson in the rookie challenge next year. That's so interesting!

Therefore, he withdrew from this All-Star Rookie Challenge.

It can also give your body a day off.

But in this way, the combat effectiveness of the rookies in the 2002 class is much worse than that of the 2001 class. They were beaten up by these second-year students in the 2001 class and finally won the rookie challenge mvp, Gilbird Arenas, the ruthless man in the second position, who scored 30 points alone in this game!

In the future, the "general" of the Wizards will show its strength this season. When the schedule is just halfway through, many experts have predicted that he will be the winner of the "fastest progressive player award" this year.

Only Yao Ming knows that this year is far from the limit of this guy. The man who later scored 60 points on Kobe's head is still growing.

After the rookie challenge, all the activities on the first day of the All-Stars Weekend ended, and the passage left. What he didn't expect was that a large group of reporters were waiting for him at the exit.

I knew I had left the player channel.

He muttered in his heart.

Originally, he was afraid that he would be blocked in the player's passage, leaving the passage, and waiting for the exit of the passage.

It's enough!

Of course, what he didn't know was that the passage left the field and quickly moved here.

If you are stopped, you will naturally say a few words: "This is a wonderful game, congratulations to Gilbird!"

A reporter asked again why he didn't participate in this rookie challenge.
Chapter completed!
