This year’s Star Game was held on February 17th, 2002 at New Orleans Arena, the home of New Orleans Hornets, Louisiana. It was the 57th Star Game in nba history and the first time that New Orleans hosted a Star Game. It was also the first time that this city arena held a professional sports league after Hurricane Katrina in 25 years. This could boost the local post-disaster economy and at the same time boost itself, but it had nothing to do with the players.

On February 17th, the first day of the weekend, there was a charity event during the day, and there was no competition. A bunch of billionaires pretended to help the poor victims in New Orleans move bricks, plant trees and paint … After three years of American government work, there are still tens of thousands of families in New Orleans today.
The two brothers arrived in New Orleans on the 16th, but it’s not that their teammates didn’t follow them. It’s not that Artest and others are short of tickets. Since they haven’t been selected, they don’t have any programs to cooperate with. Clippers players all choose to rest at home and support their teammates before watching.
Taylor Swift and Christine didn’t come to the New Orleans Star to watch the live broadcast either. They might as well watch the live broadcast at home. Even their neighbor Peter Pan didn’t take his wife to the house. They brought Gasol …
When they got on the plane and checked into the hotel arranged by the alliance, Ji Guoqiu first planned to contact Yao. As soon as he took out his mobile phone, Nash called them first. Feng planned to bring one or two compatriots with him. He hoped that the twin brothers would join him in the banquet tonight and the charity activities during the day, so as to save them from participating in the nba for the first time.
"What shall we do? Are we still looking for Yao?" Ji Guoqiu was a little stunned after receiving Nash’s words.
"Then why are you looking for a little giant to take Tai Yi? Let’s not join in the fun."
Ji Guoshi was very dissatisfied with the performance of the Basketball Association recently. Some time ago, those guys finally remembered that they had signed Aston Martin and Nokia. A few days later, it was money, not people, who came here. The attitude of the Basketball Association towards him and his two brothers changed every once in a while, and now it is too easy to show better and better. The Basketball Association immediately performed a Sichuan opera and changed its face and asked them to pay income.
This incident made Ji Guoqiu equally dissatisfied with the attitude of the Basketball Association. Now the negotiations between the two sides are deadlocked. Their two brothers have been dragging Brian to talk to the Basketball Association twice on their behalf, and they are too lazy to talk about the demands of the Basketball Association.
According to the regulations, China has to pay 5% of the business income of training athletes. This is for all China athletes, regardless of basketball, football or table tennis, even when Yao Gang entered the nba. Now it is too easy to escape this crop.
Yao signed a new contract last year, which was a 4+1 contract worth $760,000. The little giant was naturally unwilling to continue to be exploited by the Basketball Association. This time, 5% is not a small sum. The little giant helped the latter to expose his affairs with the Basketball Association in the media last year, which caused an uproar in China!
The nba Players’ Union called this a "robbery", which benefited the media’s public opinion. In the negotiation with chinese basketball association, Yao won the maximum benefit. In the end, the amount of Yao’s payment was not announced, but according to foreign reports, it was reported that there was about 5% after tax. According to this ratio, chinese basketball association might get 210,000-350,000 RMB from Yao every year, which is a small amount compared with Yao’s personal income.
Yao himself said that "in the end, they got a small part of my income"
Without Yao, the big boss of the Basketball Association can suck some oil and water in Taiyi this year, but how can Taiyi compare with Yao? So they set their sights on the twins who just signed a big contract. Fortunately, they returned to the pharmacy Bilian and asked for 5% and 3%, which they thought was a reasonable figure.
Ji Guoshame’s math is not very good. Forget it. After signing the sneaker contract, all the contracts add up to about 15 million yuan in income, which will be paid to the damn US government with 5% tax, leaving about US dollars. If you give 3% to the Basketball Association, Ji Guoshame will show your old IQ. Unless the Basketball Association is 25, it is better to grab it directly with a gun!
What does it mean to rob money if this requirement is accepted by Lian Ji Guo Qiu Du Fa? Basketball association, this is called robbing money!
Some time ago, the two of them jointly donated $1 million to the orphanage where they adopted themselves, and decided to donate this amount every year until they retired. The orphanage where they were adopted was established by Chinese, and the dean was also Chinese. After receiving this donation, they immediately took it out to set up a new orphanage and expand the adoption capacity of the existing orphanage.
But if you give this money to the Basketball Association, what will they do with it? Most people can think of it without taking off their pants.
"Do you still want to join chinese basketball association?"
"We don’t play for the Basketball Association, we play for the country."
"That also want to be able to join, besides, joining the China team can’t play this Olympic Games, so why join? Now that our sneaker contract has been settled, there is no one there to believe it, but do you believe that we can join the national team immediately if we promise to pay money, but what do people want us to do without paying money? "
Ji Guo’s shame is very simple. Apart from the important factor of the Basketball Association robbing money, the two brothers also face a bigger problem when they join the China team, that is, the regulations of the International Basketball Association on naturalized players.
Fiba stipulates that naturalized players can participate in FIBA international competitions, and each country can have two players who have acquired their nationality after reaching the age of 16, and this player has never represented the national team of the original nationality in world-class competitions such as the Olympic Games and the World Championships before, and there is a supplementary clause here that players who have joined the national team after reaching the age of 16 cannot officially represent their country until they have joined the new nationality for three years.
If this is the case, they are required to join the China team, not only in the 2-year Olympic Games, but also in the 21-year World Championships. This is also the reason why the Basketball Association is lukewarm to them. At that time, these officials didn’t know if they were still in place to dig wells for future generations. This kind of contribution will be a good thing in the future. These officials of the Basketball Association and the Football Association refused to do it
Moreover, the FIBA has said that many countries are dissatisfied with the excessive planning of players. In 21 years, the FIBA will introduce regulations to further restrict naturalized players. Maybe the two brothers will be hurt if they come up with such a pit rule that one naturalized player can play at the same time.
Ji Guoqiu shook his head and put aside these troubles for the time being. Since Nash invited them not to face each other, it was too much. It was their first time to join the star, and it was a good idea to follow Nash, an old scoundrel.
February 17th, today is the first day of the Star Weekend. Chou He, Ji’s national humiliation, and two suns stars, Nash and Stoudemire, were grouped into a group. They were dragged to a construction site in the suburbs of New Orleans early in the morning, which scared Ji’s national humiliation. This is to let them move bricks. Their annual income for four years is tens of millions. Isn’t this a joke?
Stoudemire’s black face is even darker now. The bully thinks the same way as the fox. Everyone thinks tens of millions a year. Who wants to move bricks?
Nash also touched his back and said that I can’t bend over because of my back injury!
Don’t say Ji Guo’s shame guess is quite accurate. The four of them really came to move bricks …
This site was built by the victims of the hurricane donated by the alliance for five years. Our American government is poor and can’t get a dime. Now many families can be unlucky and rely on these people’s charities to get help. Isn’t it three years ago that there were tens of thousands of victims in New Orleans who could live in tents?
Of course, the league won’t let him really move bricks. The four of them just do it and let the accompanying cameraman take a picture of them moving bricks
Today, like this, the film crew alliance sent nearly ten people. For example, Kobe Bryant and Sister-in-law were laying bricks over there, and they were ashamed to think that if they were not laid, they would all be demolished afterwards, and the house might collapse before it was finished. On the other hand, the Celtic Big Three are planting trees. It is estimated that they will not live for more than a year if they plant these trees. Yao Zui awesome over there don’t ladder to paint; The gdp portfolio in the distance is stealing the manhole cover …
No, it doesn’t look like it?
But these three bald men are holding a manhole cover, and they are so wretched that they know what they are doing. Maybe they are stealing the manhole cover …
Chapter 171 LeBron, have you seen my championship ring?
Psps chapter made a mistake. My brother signed Nike’s brother Adidas.
"Your rookie challenge tonight, Amare and I will go to the scene to cheer for you, right Amare?"
Nash took Stoudemire, who was lukewarm to the two brothers. It was only after giving Nash a face that he nodded his head. It is estimated that this guy has not forgotten the fact that he was blocked by two people in the game, especially the twins were both selected for the Star Race in the first season, which made the bully who stayed up for so many years as a substitute feel very angry, just as he was not angry with Yao at the beginning.
"Steve, we are rivals in the three-point contest, so you should be careful not to lose to me." Ji Guo was ashamed to remember that he participated in the three-point contest and Nash participated in it this year.
"I don’t know if the three-point game is different from the three-point game. Maybe I will be eliminated in the first round." Nash said with a smile that at his age, except for the championship ring, other honors are already very light for him. To say the honor, even Kobe didn’t win the regular season mvp once, but he won the three-point game twice. He participated in the three-point game with an entertainment attitude. Now he has the ring in his eyes.
There is a competition on the first day of the weekend, that is, "Rookie Challenge".
The early rookie challenge is to divide the rookie of the year into two teams, and then change the eastern rookie team to the western rookie team for one year, and then become the first-year rookie team to challenge the second-year rookie team.
They are two first-year teams, and no one can beat them in the fourth and fifth positions of the main line, but who is the coach of the first-year team this year? The league’s failure to announce it in advance is obviously intended as a gimmick to attract fans to watch high ratings.
In the past, the coaches of the rookie teams were all assistant coaches of the teams with the best record in the east and west, and then assisted a star to be the team manager. However, this year seems to be different. The specific candidates for the coaches of the two teams have not been announced until the game.
Billups sat at their table at the dinner party that day. Speaking of it, the name still belongs to the Pistons Finals mvp, and he is their teammate after the star game. The two brothers are very kind to Billups. They know that this man can win the championship in Pistons. Once he went to the Nuggets, he immediately took a generation to the Western Conference finals, saying that he can adapt to different bodies. Where is he? He is Mr. Key.
Today, their table became the focus of the banquet, because not only twins and Billups, Suns Nash and Stoudemire, Rockets Yao and Skora, Bucks Yi Jianlian, but also Lakers Kobe Bryant and Gasol had the cheek to get together, and even took pictures of gorilla James everywhere with a camera. For some reason, this guy actually took his teammate Daniel Gibson to sit with them and took a photo with his twin brother.
Of course, the gorilla and the little black snake don’t look at each other very friendly. These two are also enemies, but they don’t have any personal vendetta. It is the alliance that deliberately creates various conflicts, contradictions and competitions, which makes them dislike each other. After all, there are contradictions between the two old and new superstars, No.23 and No.24, which are the gimmicks. Everyone is in harmony. What is there to report?
Kobe Bryant was very unkind and suddenly asked James anxiously in the middle of the banquet, "Where are my three championship rings, LeBron? Have you seen my three championship rings?" Oh, my God! I think I’ve forgotten where my three championship rings are. Have you seen my three rings? They’re gone. Help me find them. "
James stuck a shrimp in his mouth with a black face and fork. "Kobe, I’m busy. My mother taught me not to talk while eating."
"They represent that I have won three championship rings."
"What’s wrong with me!"
Kobe Bryant also inserted a piece of shrimp and said, "I thought I told you before dinner that you might not even know what they look like. Each of them is like these delicious shrimps, which means that you have never owned an nba championship ring."
