At this point, the number of Wayne's team, including himself, has increased to 5 people, almost half of the team.

After returning home, Wayne made another phone call to the smiling champion Sparks.

When Howard heard that Josh was also attending, he agreed to Wayne's invitation without thinking.

"Although I don't know if I can beat him, it sounds quite interesting. Just have fun, Wei. I will cooperate with you."

Well, Howard definitely doesn't want to win, he just wants to join in the fun.

But it doesn't matter, as long as he is willing to contribute, no matter what his purpose is.

Then, Wayne looked at the schedule before the All-Star Game.

Next, before the start of the All-Star Game, the Pacers still have 5 games to play, against the Wizards, Bobcats, Red Team, Grizzlies and Trail Blazers.

In other words, Wayne's last chance to collect Pokémon was in the game against Lynx.

He needs to convince his old enemy Okafor, which... is really a test of Wayne's communication skills.

After all, other rookies have no grievances against Wayne, and since Wayne has the status of an All-Star starter, they can basically succeed with just a few casual tricks.

But it is indeed too difficult to get Okafor to listen to him.

It’s impossible to do this without a diamond-level cheating master badge!

With Okafor's current immediate combat ability, to be honest, as long as he is willing to fight seriously, he can still be of great help.

Before meeting the Bobcat, Wayne must think of a way to conquer Mr. Perfect.

One day after the game against the Hawks, the NBA officially announced the substitute lists for the Eastern and Western All-Star teams.

For the Pacers, O'Neill and Artest were selected.

Therefore, the Pacers have also become the team with the largest number of All-Star players this season.

It's a big deal to have three All-Stars in one team at the same time, including O'Neill, Jacky and Wayne.

Pacers fans are extremely happy, mainly because the Pistons still only have Ben in the All-Star this year.

There is simply no greater pleasure than pressing the piston!

As for the Western Conference, Anthony's name is not on the substitute list.

This means that Anthony will only have the opportunity to perform in the Rookie Game in this year's home All-Star Game.

He undoubtedly takes the rookie game more seriously now.

After the substitute list was announced, Taico was so happy that he said something like, "I want to take Wei to the All-Star Game to see the world."

It's like he's a regular at the All-Star Game.

But in fact, this is the second time in his career that Zitai has been selected to the All-Star lineup, and he was a substitute both times!

However, with the bonus of being an All-Star player, don't tell me, Zitai's condition has really improved a lot.

On February 7, when Arenas scored 43 points, Artest snatched the victory from the "general" with his performance of 30 points, 8 rebounds and 3 steals.

Especially in the second half, Zitai and the General were evenly matched on points. You would score a goal and I would score one, which made Wayne completely dumbfounded.

With such strength, why did you go there so early?

Of course, Wayne did not become a spectator today.

Facing Arenas who was desperately attacking the basket and Jamison who was much shorter than himself, Wayne blocked a career-high 4 shots in a single game.

At the last moment, it was Wayne who blocked Arenas' inevitable layup, which tipped the balance of victory toward the Pacers.

Under the leadership of Zingtai, the Pacers finally narrowly defeated the Wizards 109-105, winning their fifth consecutive victory!

Star Tai, who is in full swing, is indeed worthy of praise.

"It's nothing, it's just a regular performance. After all, I am an All-Star player, so there is nothing to make a fuss about with this kind of performance." After the game, Zitai started to pretend again.

Well, although he looked very handsome when he was competing with Arenas on the court, once he was interviewed, Wayne still couldn't help but have the urge to hit someone.

He can only be handsome for three seconds, which means he is a coward.

After narrowly defeating the Wizards, Wayne is about to face his most critical battle before the All-Star Game!

Whether Okafor can be fooled will directly determine the difficulty of the All-Star mission.

In this regard, Wayne has already prepared his words. It depends on whether Okafor will lose his temper.

Wayne suddenly felt...this basketball game is really very humane.

Look what you have done recently?

Except for asking the driver to back up once, Wayne was either recruiting others or on the way to recruiting others.

Professional basketball is not as simple as the NCAA.

Of course, Guagua still knew nothing about the undercurrent brewing in Wayne at this time.

When being interviewed by reporters, he still confidently emphasized: "We will give up performances, pursue victory, and dedicate a real game to you. Let's see if the first graders can survive halftime, hahahaha.

"

Melo really wants to make something happen in the rookie game and seize this opportunity to participate in the All-Star Weekend at home and perform well.

Although Guagua's side was very enthusiastic, Mousse and Wade still called Guagua and said: "We should save some face for others in the first half, and it won't be too late for us to start working harder in the second half."

Well, this emotional intelligence is indeed very good.

Anthony accepted Mousse and Wade's proposal. Anyway, as long as he could win, it didn't hurt to perform for half the game first.

To deal with the 2004 class, half a game is enough!

But in fact, Ren Mousi and Wade said this because... they both wanted to save their energy for the All-Star Game!

I'm wasting my energy on a mere rookie competition with you, what a fuss.

Wayne is deceiving people, do you think Mousse is not deceiving people?

This is simply the ultimate showdown between the two cheating emperors.

Mousse deceived Melon, and Wayne finally found his last target.

February 9, at Bankers Life Arena.
