Chapter 1381: 3 Fools Make Trouble in Toronto
The Knicks did not fall into despair after their winning streak was ended. On the contrary, the Knicks, who had gotten rid of the burden, played better and better. From January 1 to February 16, the Knicks once again achieved 2 consecutive wins!
50 wins and 1 losses!
The Knicks set a new record for the fastest 50 wins in NBA history, which is also the best record in history before the All-Star Game.
Well, although they also held the previous record.
But this record is really hard to break now.
After all, winning 50 games and losing only one...unless the peak Bulls add the OK combination, it is really hard to think of how to break it.
The popularity of everyone on the Knicks team naturally rose with the tide. Now, even Rooney, who averages 2.3 minutes per game, has over a million fans on Instagram.
This directly broke the defense of many big brothers who were team leaders but whose fan base was still around a few hundred thousand.
Joe Johnson complained on a show: "I say, do you really know anyone named Rooney? Just pay attention to him."
Forehead…
That's true.
But there is nothing that can be done about it.
When one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. Think about the Rockets back then. If it weren't for Yao Ming, who would have recognized Hayes and Hager?
Zuo Li’s influence now is much more terrifying than Yao Ming’s in the past!
Zuo Li’s main INS account has currently accumulated 6.1 million followers, surpassing football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo to become the person with the most followers in the world.
This is just the number of fans on INS. In China, Zuo Li is also the celebrity who broke 2.8 million and 2 million fans on Weibo the fastest. He currently has 20 million fans, which is twice the total number of fans of the other 3-th people on this list. And judging from this trend, it is not long before he breaks million.
If I had known that Weibo had Zuo Li's investment in this life, all those miscellaneous buying of charts and vote manipulation in the previous life would have been clearly prohibited. Zuo Li's fans are a real number, which shows his influence.
As a superstar whose global fan base is about to break one billion, Zuo Li has naturally driven a number of brands to rise, and his teammates have also benefited from it.
Rumor has it that Zuo Li can earn 300 million US dollars by posting an advertisement on INS.
It’s a pity that, apart from his own sneakers, Zuo Li never puts any other advertisements on social media.
Good results bring more and more fame, and fame also feeds back to the team and makes them play more seriously...
There is no doubt that the Knicks are now in a virtuous circle.
Now the haters have completely lost their minds and no longer ask others to beat the Knicks, because no one in the league can think of a way to beat them.
They've been fucked several times in turn, can you still expect them to suddenly wake up?
In addition, Silver was dismissed, and the new vice president was an honest man who basically followed Stern's lead. Although he felt that the Knicks' continued dominance was not a good situation, he saw the NBA's growing fame, more expensive advertising, and more and more income...
Well, it’s not unacceptable!
What's wrong with winning consecutive championships?
If you have the ability, you can win consecutive championships!
Look at other people's football, Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, Bayern in the Bundesliga, and Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1, each of them has a lot of championships. Only the Premier League is not very sociable, the others are similar.
This does not affect the fact that it is the number one sport at all!
So you can’t blame the uneven road for your own failures. The Knicks won the championship because they really have the strength!
Well, the Vice President soon convinced himself.
But it is the truth. Instead of engaging in shady dealings and making fans complain, it is better to be honest.
I don’t know about other teams, but the Knicks do have a lot of traffic.
The Knicks nowadays will cause riots wherever they go, and these Knicks guys are all cheerful, from top to bottom, they are all good at making trouble.
Just now, the Knicks trio who just arrived in Toronto has once again set social media on fire.
The three of them came down on a chartered plane. Zuo Li was wearing a white suit, and behind him, Curry was walking and eating a banana, and Klay was walking and jumping, with a look of excitement on his face, greeting everyone he met, and finally fell down...
This scene not only set off a sensation at the airport, but also attracted media coverage.
"Three Idiots" in Toronto!
This title became the most discussed topic of the day.
Zuo Li was completely numb.
My buddy is so handsome, how can he be stupid?
Blame it on Clay!
This year's All-Star Game is a special one.
Because it is held in Toronto, this is also the first time that the All-Star Game is held outside the United States.
It happens to be the 20th anniversary of the founding of the Toronto Raptors, so it is quite commemorative.
So naturally, this All-Star Game has attracted a lot of attention.
In order to show their importance, the NBA officials are doing their best to promote the All-Stars from all aspects.
As early as half a month ago, the NBA officially announced the starting lineup and substitutes for this year's All-Star Game.
Eastern Conference starting lineup: Zuo Li, James, Paul George, Curry, Lowry.
Western Conference starting lineup: Durant, Anthony, Leonard, Westbrook, Kobe.
Eastern Conference substitutes: Klay Thompson, Irving, Millsap, DeRozan, Butler, Bosh.
Western Conference substitutes: Rondo, Aldridge, Cousins, Davis, Paul, and Gasol.
Judging from the list, the Lakers are still the biggest winners, with two starters and two substitutes, a total of four players selected, while the Knicks have three.
The Cavaliers were a bit unexpected, with only James and Irving selected, and Howard was not selected for the All-Star game for the first time.
But it's normal. Howard is almost being used as a pure blue-collar worker now.
However, this also indirectly reflects the dilemma of the center. Among the 10 starting players in the East and West, only Zuo Li is a big center. In the Western Conference starting lineup, there are three small forwards occupying the three starting positions, and there is not a single pure inside player!
But having Zuo Li is enough. His popularity has crushed everyone. After all, 8569874 votes do not lie. Zuo Li once again broke the All-Star voting record.
This is also Zuo Li's eighth All-Star voting title in his career, surpassing Jordan for the most consecutive times and bringing his total number of times to second place, only behind Jordan who has nine times.
Zuo Li's popularity is not only used in the main competition. This time, the league has made great efforts to invite Zuo Li to return to the dunk contest, which has already set off a social media frenzy two months ago.
Last year, LaVine emerged out of nowhere and once again sparked a discussion among fans about "who is the best dunk king in history."
This time, the two main contenders among fans will have the opportunity to compete on the same field!
This makes tickets for the dunk contest very hard to come by, with good seats even surpassing those for the main competition the next day.
The reason why Zuo Li participated was naturally not only because of LaVine, but also because of a less well-known player at present - Gordon!
In the previous life, the competition between the two made Zuo Li’s blood boil. This time, how could Zuo Li miss the opportunity to compete with them.
As for the three-point contest, although Zuo Li did not participate, the participation of Curry, Klay, Korver and Harden also made the three-point contest highly anticipated. Last year, Zuo Li defeated a number of masters to win the championship. This time, people also want to know who is the second best active player after Zuo Li.
As for the skills competition and shooting stars, everyone just watched for fun and didn't pay much attention.
But that’s enough. This All-Star Game is expected to set a new record.
