Chapter 145 All-Star Team Qualification

Davidson smiled bitterly. Daddy said that he was right. The strength of the King’s bench is really not strong now.

Only Brian Grant has transaction value. As for the original point guard Potato Webber, because of his annual salary of up to 2.07 million US dollars, no one will ask for it for free...

You should know that Richmond's annual salary is only 3 million US dollars, and Little Potato Webber's strength is not the same level as Richmond, but the annual salary is not much different.

"Dad, what do you think we should do?" Davidson asked in a tangled manner.

"Don't think too much about this, leave it to me. I will not really get the king's annual salary of 800,000 yuan in vain. I have to help with some work." Dad said with a smile.

"Look at the situation first. Let's not sell Grant now. After all, he is a good combat power and can be used in the playoffs."

"I will contact several teams that may hold the lottery pick first, and then wait until the season is over to trade them." Dad told his plan.

Davidson nodded, and now this is the only way to go.

Now is not a good time to trade Grant, because selling Grant will damage the overall strength of the team. This season, the Kings have hope of competing for the championship, so they naturally have to preserve their strength as much as possible.

...

The Kings are in the limelight this season, but it does not mean that there has been no capsized in the gutter.

For example, it lost to the Bucks, a well-known Eastern Conference team.

Davidson didn't think it was a big deal, after all, it was the first year of Kings' lineup.

Three of the five players have just joined the team this year, and sometimes the gutter capsizes, which is quite normal.

At the end of January, the results of the NBA All-Star Voting were released.

What Davidson did not expect was that this year's All-Star Ticket King was not Jordan.

But Grant Hill, the leader of the Pistons...

This is interesting.

Last season, before Jordan made a comeback, Hill won the All-Star Ticket King as a rookie.

Now that Jordan has made a comeback, Hill actually dares to win the ticket king, and his popularity is a bit incomprehensible.

It's incredible to be able to steal the All-Star Ticket King from Jordan.

However, there must be a reason for this.

First of all, Hill was born, a black man from an American high-class family.

My father graduated from Yale University and my mother graduated from Wesley College. My roommate is the current first lady Hillary.

Hill received the best education since he was a child and was a member of the American elite.

It is not an exaggeration to say that even if Hill doesn't play basketball, he can definitely become an American elite with his family connections.

Such a player is naturally deeply loved by the white American elites, and they have found a resonance point in Hill.

In addition, Hill is also a black man, so naturally he is also popular among black man.

It means that Hill is a black and white player, and it is normal to get higher votes than Jordan.

Of course, Hill's own strength is completely unmatched.

The rookie averaged 19.9 points, 6.4 rebounds and 5 assists per game in the rookie season, which is quite outstanding.

This season, Hill's data has been further improved, averaging 20.2 points, 9.8 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game, extremely versatile.

In the second grade, he averaged 20+10+7 per game, which is definitely an amazing performance.

Under various reasons, Hill is reasonable to obtain the honor of the ticket king.

Jordan is naturally the second most votes.

The third and fourth places are O'Neal and Pippen.

All four of them are Eastern stars, which shows that the popularity of Eastern stars in this era is indeed higher than that of Western stars.

It was not until the fifth place that a Western Conference player finally appeared.

Batel!

That's right, Bartel ranked fifth in the All-Star vote with a total of 1.26 million votes.

This result is actually lower than Davidson's expectations. Davidson originally thought that Bartel's votes could make it to the top three.

After all, there aren't many players who average 31+7+4 per game in the rookie season.

However, Davidson is also satisfied with being ranked as the Western Conference's ticket leader. At least this also shows that Bartel is now the most popular star in the Western Conference.

Bartel was followed by Barkley and Olajuwon.

The votes of these two people are actually quite large compared to Bartel, which is almost the same as each other.

In terms of Western center votes, Olajuwon and David Robinson occupy the top two.

As for Murraysan, although he ranks third and has a much higher vote than Mutombo, the gap is definitely quite large compared to David Robinson's million votes.

This year, Murraysan may not even be eligible for the All-Star substitute...

The blue-collar center is so miserable and its popularity is very low.

If nothing unexpected happens, Murraysan, Mutombo and Rodman, the three blue-collar insiders in the league this year, may not be able to obtain the All-Star qualification.

As for the Western Conference All-Star forward position.

Bartel, Barkley and Rainman Kemp ranked in the top three, while Kal Malone ranked fourth with less than one million votes.

There is no problem with Richmond being selected for the backcourt, but he is also a substitute.

Drexler, Kidd and Stockton are very popular in the west.

It's strange that with the Kings' record this year, Richmond, as the Kings' team leader, won the honor of the Western Conference vote, at least there is no problem being selected into the All-Star backcourt.

But I just couldn't choose it, and the number of votes was never enough.

If Richmond looks like a superstar, it wouldn't be that Richmond's appearance is not the kind that is annoying.

Davis thought that the reason for this situation must be related to Richmond's low-key personality.

Because of the low-key personality, the popularity is not high. The consequence of low popularity is that it is not favored by commercial brands. Without commercial brands to help them advertise, the popularity will definitely become less and less popular.

This is a vicious circle...

...

In mid-February, the All-Star Weekend started, and Davidson got the qualification to lead the Western Conference All-Star team as he wished.

Bartel's Western forward, Richmond is the Western Conference defender substitute, and Murraysan is not qualified to be selected as an All-Star...

This made Davidson feel a little unhappy. As the first natal player at hand, Davidson naturally has a deep affection for Murraysan. Now Bartel has been selected for the lineup in the first year, but Murraysan has not even obtained the qualification to be a substitute.

Mainly, Davidson is about to advance to an intermediate buyer. After the promotion is successful, Davidson will definitely focus on senior buyers.
