On February 9, the Los Angeles Clippers beat the New Jersey Nets away.

Jason Kidd only played 30 minutes in this game, and the Nets' attitude was confused. They were still more positive about Kidd's trade in January, but after the Dallas Mavericks joined the team in February, the Nets' attitude began to change.

Old Dunleavy treats this normally. When making transactions in the league, the active party must make more money even if the transaction is reached. Moreover, Kidd's annual salary of 20 million has also changed his attitude to his stingy boss three times a day. Especially after the Clippers received the Pistons' offer, Sterling of course chose Billups with an annual salary of 10 million. The key is good and cheap, and Kidd is no longer the Clippers' first goal.

The Clippers' negotiations with the Pistons in February were progressing very quickly. Old Dunleavy's current offer was to the Clippers' single out Elton Brand in exchange for the Pistons' Billups and Amir Johnson.

The Pistons' single Bilups cannot match their salary. The old captain's annual salary is 15 million, Bilups' 10 million, and Amir Johnson with an annual salary of 3.65 million is just the right match. However, the Pistons don't want to suffer any losses. They want to have a first-round draft pick, so they can't give it to Rashid Wallace.

Of course, old Dunleavy won't trade the first-round draft pick. Like the Nets, the Pistons saw the Clippers' urgent trade stalls and wanted to take the opportunity to get up and take a bite.

In the game between the Clippers and Nets, Old Dunleavy directly turned the Fox into a substitute this time and let the old captain start. Old Dunleavy has explained to Ji Guomeng privately that during the transaction, Brand must play good data. Ji Guomeng naturally has no objection.

In this game, Ji Guochou scored 12 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 blocks. Ji Guomori scored 16 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks, and Brand scored 21 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks.

On February 10, the Clippers played back-to-back against the Philadelphia 76ers away, and the whole team began to be affected by the away back-to-back. The score was 82:86, and the Clippers lost to the 76ers away.

In this game, Ji Guochou scored 10 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block, Ji Guomo 12 points, 10 rebounds and 1 block. Elton Brand 18 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks.

On February 12, the Clippers played against the Milwaukee Bucks for the third time this season.

Ji Guomomori got a malicious foul in the last game, and was not only fined but also suspended for one game. He was unable to play in this game against the Bucks.

During this away trip to the Clippers, they were obviously troubled by physical strength in the second half. Today they were in Milwaukee, which was icy and snowy. I wonder if the opponent did a small move on purpose. The air conditioner in the stadium seemed not very good, which made the temperature in the stadium not high.

There is no such cold weather in Los Angeles in the west. It is dozens of degrees below zero outside Milwaukee. It is more than ten degrees above zero inside the stadium. All the Clippers players were frozen into popsicles. The whole game was full of "bang bang bang" ironclad sounds.

In this game, Ji Guochou scored 15 points, 18 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 blocks, and Elton Brand scored 25 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks. Although the Fox did not play, the old captain's power was only high and not low on the offensive end. Today, the poor feel was suitable for him to play at a low post. Brand's situation was actually more threatening than Ji Guomo.

The score was 90:95, and the Bucks prepared more fully. Relying on their home court advantage, they were finally not killed by the Clippers three times!

Space Yi performed well in this game, with a very accurate shot from the outside. He played 30 minutes and scored 16 points and 10 rebounds, and also covered the old captain with a big hat.

Last month, Yi Jianlian won the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month. This month, Space Yi's performance is still good and is expected to be the best of the month. After all, except Al Thorton and Horford in the Eastern Conference, he has few competitors. If it weren't for twin brothers this year, there would be almost no rookies that could be shown except Durant. The rest of Oden the Great has been scrapped. 2007 was a real Draft New Year.

Of course, now with twins, there are two more rookies with All-Star potential this year. In addition, American fans think that the potential is no less than twins, Oden has become a year of draft in 2007, and it looks not inferior to the 2003 generation.

Just listen to the nicknames of these rookies now: Meddy, Duncan, Wolf King, Oden Great…

Ji Guomeng secretly curled his lips: "Why do they all add a 'small', but the unlucky guy who was reimbursed is so imposing?"

After the Clippers finished the game against the Bucks, all the remaining games this month were at home. Before the All-Star Game, the Clippers only had to finish the game against the Wizards at No. 14, and the next is the annual All-Star Weekend.

As early as early February, NBA had announced the first and second-year rosters of the rookie challenge.

Second grade team—

Organizational guards: Rajon Rondo (Boston Celtics), Jordan Famal (Los Angeles Lakers), Daniel Gibson (Cleveland Cavaliers)

Scoring guards: Brandon Roy (Portland Trail Blazers), Ronnie Brewer (Utah Jazz)

Small forward: Rudy Guy (Memphis Grizzlies)

Power forward: Lamarcus Aldridge (Portland Trail Blazers), Paul Millsap (Utah Jazz)

Center: Andrea Banyani (Toronto Raptors)

First grade team-

Organizing guard: Mike Conley (Memphis Grizzlies)

Scoring guard Juan Navarro (Memphis Grizzlies), Al Thorton (Boston Celtics)

Small forward: Kevin Durant (Seattle Supersonics), Jeff Green (Seattle Supersonics)

Power forward: Ji Guomeng (Los Angeles Clippers), Louis Scola (Houston Rockets), Yi Jianlian (Milwaukee Bucks)

Center: Ji Guoqiu (Los Angeles Clippers), Al Horford (Atlanta Hawks)

In the rookie competition, the first-year team has lost to the second-year team for five consecutive years. The last time the first-year rookie won was in 2002, and the second was Yao Ming's class. Next, even the team composed of LeBron, James, Wade, Anthony, and Bosh was killed by the Little Giants and Little Overlords. It failed to succeed in defiance.

Now it is now the first generation of 2007. The twin brothers and Durant may create examples of successful first-year challenges in the eyes of fans. As long as they can defeat the second-year team, it is enough to show the value of the draft this year.

In the All-Star Weekend individual competition event, the shooters used it to prove their "three-point competition". The league specially invited Ji Guomeng, one of the twin brothers, to participate this year. The little fox of course accepted the invitation. Each of his contracts has additional terms for getting the "three-point king", which means green US dollars, why don't you go with money?

There are many big names in the "Three-Point Contest" competition. Many All-Star players also participated in this three-point competition. The 6-person list is: Jason Capono, Steve Nash, Dirk Nowitzki, Peja Stoyakovic, Richard Hamilton, and Ji Guomo.

Kobe originally planned to participate in the three-point competition, but Pan's finger was injured, so he had to let Nowitzki take the place.

In addition to the "Three-Point Contest", this year's "Slam Dunk Contest" is the most popular event on the All-Star Weekend. A Chinese appeared on this contest list for the first time.

Although Ji Guoqiu is a Chinese, he is a 100% Chinese descent.

The rules of this year's "slam dunk contest" are the same as before. The league originally planned to use the new scoring rules this year, but after seeing Ji Guoqiu participate, it immediately decided to postpone the new rules for one year, otherwise the Panda hero would win the championship without having to compete.

It is said that the next slam dunk contest will use online and telephone voting to determine the title, but this session is still the scoreboard of the five judges who decides who the dunk king will fall.

The four participants in the 2008 "Slam Dunk Contest" were Rudy Guy (Memphis Grizzlies), Gerald Green (Minnesota Timberwolves), Dwight Howard (Orlando Magic), and Ji Guoqiu (Los Angeles Clippers).

On February 13, the two brothers received a call from their agent Brian at Taylor Swift's house and Kristen's house. This time, their agent finally lived up to his responsibilities and brought them the news that the sneaker contract had been negotiated on the phone.

After more than half a month of hard negotiations, Brian finally agreed to a sneaker contract between Nike and Adidas before the All-Star Game. The two brothers finally endorsed two different sneaker brands.

The next afternoon, the two brothers signed the final contract with the two companies before the game. Brian had notified them half a month ago that the negotiations with the two sports giants had come to an end, and the only difference was some details. However, it was these details that made both sides hold them for nearly half a month. As the two brothers performed better and better on the court, Nike and Adidas finally made some compromises.

The younger brother Ji Guomeng signed Nike and Phil Knight for the Foxes a five-year, $45 million sneaker contract, which included some additional terms, such as winning the best rookie of the season, entering the playoffs, winning the three-pointer, dunk king, rookie mvp, triple-double, etc. Brian set up additional terms of about $10 million in the sneaker contracts of the two, and these additional terms made both sides quarrel for more than a week.

The brother Ji Guoqiu signed Adidas, who also issued him a five-year, $45 million sneaker contract, with similar additional terms. With their current performance, at least half of the terms can be completed at the end of the season, which means that this contract is actually a five-year, $50 million contract.

After the two brothers signed the contract, Nike and Adidas immediately changed to a smiling face. Representatives of the two families told the two at their respective headquarters that their brothers' sneakers had started designing a month ago, and they would definitely let them wear their sneakers at the All-Star Game.

The contract between the two brothers is naturally much different from LeBron James's 7 years and 90 million, and even if it is Durant's 60 million in 6 years, they are not an advantage. However, as inside players, they are already considered to be the biggest players in the inside rookies' sneaker contract.

During this period, in addition to the sneaker contract, Brian also received more than ten small contracts for them. Although the endorsement fee for these small contracts is small, it accumulates a lot, and there is no need to shoot advertisements and has a shorter period. Most of them are 2-year contracts, and only their portrait use rights are required, which adds up to three or four million US dollars.

The two added up these small contracts, plus the tens of millions of sneakers contracts signed just now, and the big contracts such as Nokia and Aston Martin, both earned more than $15 million. After the rookie contract, it was not difficult for them to earn more than $30 million. Of course, this is their pre-tax income.

The next day, the Clippers defeated the Washington Wizards without General Arenas at home. Ji Guomeng did not play in this game, and his brother Ji Guochu also sat off the court to rest.

They were all-star starters or rookie challenge starters. The two brothers also participated in the three-point contest and the dunk contest respectively. Dunleavy, the old Dunleavy, specially asked them to take a round off before the All-Star weekend. Only Brand, who missed the All-Star match due to injury, played 38 minutes today and was fucked hard by Dunleavy. Anyway, the old captain is no longer a Clipper player.

In this game, Elton Brand scored 33 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 blocks. After the game, the Clippers fans gave warm cheers to the old captain! But they didn't know that this was Brand's last time for the Clippers at Staples.

On February 15, before the All-Stars began, another major deal appeared in the league!

The Clippers sent Elder Brandon + Smarsh Parker + the 2008 first-round draft pick, and exchanged the Detroit Pistons for Chauncey Billups + Amir Johnson + Aaron Avraro + the 2008 second-round draft pick. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
