204. All-Star starter

The Cavaliers suffered a defeat in his first match in his three Western away tours. This was undoubtedly a bad start, but the momentum did not end like this. After playing against the Hornets, the Cavaliers will play a game with the Warriors at Oracle Stadium three days later.

The three-day rest time is undoubtedly a great breathing opportunity for the Cavaliers, and more importantly, Chris Carman, who has been with the Cavaliers for a week, has finally been able to play for the Cavaliers for the first time in his career.

Such news is undoubtedly a huge good news for the Cavaliers. Because after Carman joined the Cavaliers, the team's head coach Byron Scott had already planned a new lineup.

Kaman, who averaged 16 points per game after returning this season, will replace Brazilian Valejo as the team's center, while the original center Valejo will return to the position he is better at.

The team's veteran who was originally in the fourth position is also the number one scorer in the team currently tied with Wu Dawei, veteran Antoine Jamison will become the team's sixth man. He will contribute to the team from the bench.

This is the arrangement made by the team's head coach Byron Scott after the deal happened, and he also had a long talk with Jamison to convince the veteran who is over 35 years old.

Fortunately, Jamison did not have any opposition or resistance to such an arrangement. He has been lingering in this league for many years, which has gradually transformed from being self-centered when he was young and frivolous to a team-centered idea.

In this way, in the game against the Golden State Warriors, the Cavaliers' lineup became center Chris Carman, power forward Andre Valejo, small forward Wu Dawei, and two defenders were Anthony Parker and Ramon Sessions.

Of course, what makes Scott most happy is that his substitute lineup will finally no longer be weak. Scott is very confident that the competitive advantage of the substitute lineup composed of Antoine Jamison and Rasu Butler as the core will definitely increase exponentially than before!

In fact, the actual situation is indeed the case. Although the Cavaliers did not end up laughing in the away game against the Golden State Warriors, they had at least begun to slowly solve some problems. The competitiveness of the substitute lineup has almost doubled under the leadership of Jamison and Rasu Butler, who can average 18 points per game.

In the competition with the Warriors' substitute lineup, the Cavaliers' substitute lineup no longer digs for the main players, but instead fills in some pits dug by the main players.

100:106, the Cavaliers finally lost in the last minute, and the arrival of a three-game losing streak is undoubtedly an even more disappointing thing. But the improvement of the problems faced by the Cavaliers is undoubtedly exciting.

In his first game for the Cavaliers, Chris Caman played 28 minutes and contributed 12 points and 11 rebounds. His ability in the interior has indeed improved the Cavaliers' previous weak attack power in the interior; and Rassu Butler played for 19 minutes as a substitute, contributing 7 points, 5 rebounds and 2 steals, also contributing to the team.

In addition, veteran Antoine Jamison, who served as a substitute for the first time this season, also performed well. It seems that he did not have too much fluctuations in his heart because he was kicked. He played for 33 minutes and contributed 19 points and 6 rebounds.

However, no matter how good the situation of the team changes, it is an indisputable fact that they lose the game and get three consecutive losses. This is the worst news for the Cavaliers, because their record has dropped to 25 wins and 26 losses, and the New York Knicks, who also had games that night, won the victory.

After tonight, the New Yorkers ranked ahead of the Cavaliers with a record of 26 wins and 26 losses, and jumped to the seventh place in the East, which they have been looking forward to for a long time. The Cavaliers, who fell to the eighth place, now have no way to consider how to catch up with the New Yorkers ahead. Because the Philadelphia 76ers behind them are also chasing tonight.

The Phillies also won the victory, turning their record into 25 wins and 27 losses, only half a game away from the Cavaliers.

It can be said that the Cavaliers' current position is really in danger. And it is no longer a question of the ranking of the East District, but whether they can save the opportunity to enter the playoffs!

After the pain of the running-in period, New York's winning rate has reached 80%. Cameron Anthony's extremely outstanding performance is the most critical factor in the New Yorkers' ability to catch up. In the past week, Cameron Anthony has averaged 35 points per game!

Moreover, his shooting percentage is 56%. His three-point shooting percentage is 44%. On the offensive end, Cameron Anthony's efficiency is simply unsightly!

The mighty and domineering nature is not enough to describe the performance of Little Melon in recent times. Such performance undoubtedly makes New Yorkers more and more confident.

Although Wu Dawei's performance has not been bad recently, if compared with Anthony's recent rampage, he will still be at a disadvantage. Whether in terms of personal data or team record, the Cavaliers and Wu Dawei are at a disadvantage, which is also an important reason why they are overtaken by the New Yorkers.

The New Yorker, who has always been extremely arrogant, is naturally the time when the horse is brisk in the spring breeze. But at this moment, the league announced the third round of the 2011 Los Angeles All-Star Game, which is the final result of the East and West!

Anthony's outstanding performance in recent years has made the New Yorkers very optimistic about the issue he chose. But in the end, the facts hit New Yorkers a lot, and the final result made New Yorkers feel very angry!

The final vote leader is naturally the Los Angeles Lakers superstar shooting guard Kobe Bryant, who is also one of the two defenders in the West, and the other position is Chris Paul; the two forwards in the West are Kevin Durant and Black Griffin, and the center is Yao Ming.

However, judging from Yao Ming's injury this season, he will most likely not appear in the All-Star arena. Therefore, everyone speculates that the person who replaces Yao Ming as the center of the West District should be the Lakers' center Andrew Bynum.

In the roster announced by the Eastern Conference, Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard is naturally one of the two most uncontroversial candidates. He became the center of the East District All-Stars with four times the vote, while the defender was won by Dwyane Wade of Miami Heat and Derek Ross, the defender.

If Howard is one of the most undisputed candidates in the center position in the East, then the other one must be LeBron James in the forward position. As the best player in the league at present, James will definitely occupy a place in the forward position.

The other position on the remaining forward line, in the eyes of the New Yorkers, must be Cameron Anthony. But when the league announced the results, the name next to LeBron James was James's stalemate some time ago. Currently, the small forward of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Chinese player Wu Dawei!

This is the second player in Chinese history to enter the NBA All-Star Game. Undoubtedly, this is a supreme honor.

For Wu Dawei, this is also what he once dreamed of. Now that his dream comes true, Wu Dawei, who received this news in Jinzhou, was so excited that he was going crazy. Although before that, he had always steadily occupied the second place in the Eastern Conference forward list, it was only a temporary position at that time.

Now, the situation is complete. It is really a dream thing to compete with more than 20 best players in the world in two weeks.

It can be said that this is definitely a great joy for Wu Dawei to come true. After the league announced such news, Wu Dawei received a lot of congratulations on his mobile phone. Beasley, who was kicked out of Miami this summer, was undoubtedly Wu Dawei's best friend in this league.

His sour blessings benefited Wu Dawei very much.

But the announcement of such a news is not all good for Wu Dawei now. Because he was criticized by the media the next day, believing that Wu Dawei's current performance is not worthy of such an honor at all.

Because the Cavaliers have lost 5 games in recent 6 games and are now in a three-game losing streak, Wu Dawei is completely unable to save the team's decline.

However, after reading the source of the news, Wu Dawei ignored them. It was a media from New York, and Wu Dawei soon knew why he was criticized by New Yorkers.

Because he squeezed Anthony to the bench, the New Yorker spent a lot of money to introduce two All-Star forwards with an annual salary of more than 38 million this season, and were suppressed by his player with an annual salary of only 700,000 US dollars on this list.

New Yorkers are unwilling to accept their hearts, so they feel jealous. They complain about Anthony because of their vanity. They criticized Wu Dawei for not being able to help the Cavaliers win recently, but did not add the current objective facts of the Cavaliers to evaluate it. It was just an overly exaggerated and extreme view.

What's more, the All-Stars are comparing popularity. Wu Dawei's votes fully demonstrate that he is more popular than Anthony, otherwise why would the league want fans to vote?

New Yorkers are dissatisfied and indignant about Wu Dawei's election, and they cannot change such a fact.
