Wang Yi lowered his head and touched Nicole's forehead lightly.
This feeling is amazing.
At this moment, his body seemed not to be his own.
He didn't do it consciously, but his body seemed to be out of control of his brain, so he did it.
At this moment, both of their hearts were filled with a feeling called happiness.
Then Wang Yi took Nicole's soft hand, and the two held hands like this, looking at the sea in the night.
Listen to the sound of the waves and the sea breeze.
In the countless days to come, Wang Yi and Nicole will always recall this wonderful night.
This is the night when the relationship between the two of them really begins.
The two of them stayed on the beach for a long time.
It wasn't until about 3 a.m. that Wang Yi sent Nicole back to the apartment.
When parting, Nicole looked forward to Wang Yi's kiss goodbye.
But Wang Yi did not.
In his Eastern thinking, he has not yet developed to that stage.
Nicole was not disappointed either.
She knew that day would come.
Her efforts have paid off, and as long as she persists, that day will come.
…
The next day is the All-Star game.
The rules for this year’s All-Star Game have been changed again.
It is no longer like in previous years where a captain is selected and the captain selects his own players.
This year the old tradition has returned.
Divided into Eastern Star Team and Western Star Team.
The top five players with the highest votes in each division will be the starting lineup.
The starting lineup of the Western Conference: James, Big Eyebrow, Kawhi Kawhi, Curry and Westbrook.
Judging from this year's starting lineup in the Western Conference, you can see how much attention the Lakers have received.
This year, due to the good performance of the Big Four of the Lakers, all the Big Four of the Lakers have entered the All-Star lineup.
Three of them have entered the starting lineup.
This is far beyond what the current Kings team can match.
However, Wang Yi is confident that as his performance gets better and better, the Kings' record gets better and better, and one day they will also gain huge attention.
Since the Western Conference is full of stars and Wang Yi's playing time is too short, his final votes this year only ranked seventh in the Western Conference.
In other words, he failed to make the starting lineup.
However, last year he was just a 10-day short contract player, and today he has become an All-Star.
This is already a miracle.
At six o'clock in the evening, various dances, songs, roller skating, fancy dunks and other performances before the All-Star Game began.
All-Star is a carnival for all stars, media and fans.
The fans were excited, and the league and media also made a lot of money.
I have to say that the atmosphere of this All-Star Game is truly unmatched by the regular season.
Even the atmosphere of the playoffs in the first and second rounds is far inferior to the All-Star Game.
The specific rules of this year's All-Star Game have also changed.
It's no longer as complicated as it was two years ago.
Still a return to tradition.
The two teams in the East and West played for 48 minutes like a normal regular season game.
But whichever team wins the game will donate $2.4 million to charity.
The losing team donates $800,000 to charity.
To commemorate Kobe.
The starters from both sides take the field first.
Three of the Western Conference starters are from the Lakers;
Three of the starters in the Eastern Conference are from the Nets - Harden, Durant and Irving.
The head coach of the Western Conference All-Star Team is Lakers head coach Vogel;
The head coach of the Eastern Conference All-Star Team is Nets head coach Steve Nash.
So this year’s Western Conference All-Star team is nicknamed the Lakers by fans;
The Eastern Conference All-Star team is nicknamed the Nets.
When the game started, the main lineups of both sides came and went on the court.
Curry threw a three-pointer, and Durant responded with a three-pointer.
James succeeded with thick eyebrows;
Harden made an alley-oop to Antetokounmpo.
The thick eyebrows successfully dunked when grabbing a rebound;
Embiid grabbed the rebound and dunked under the basket.
All in all, the fight between the two sides was extremely lively.
The All-Star Game is just for fun.
So many stars gathered together.
Everyone is very considerate to each other.
Therefore, when attacking, generally defensive players only defend symbolically.
There were a lot of goals and a lot of dunks, and the fans were happy to see them.
Even Stephen Curry went for a fast break after a steal, and when he reached the frontcourt, he threw and dunked - of course, it was a reluctant dunk - which caused a burst of warm cheers from the fans at the scene.
Compared to these birds and beasts in the NBA, Curry's physical talent is really average.
It's not easy to watch him dunk on the court.
It's even harder to throw yourself into a trap.
This dunk caused the fans to shout: "Golden State LaVine! Golden State LaVine..."
The two sides played for 5 minutes and ended up tied at 22-22.
Finally, Vogel waved his flag and withdrew all the main forces.
A full substitute lineup was put on.
Wang Yi, Lillard, Booker, Anthony and Ayton.
After all, they are all football stars and they all have good reputations.
So the coach must distribute playing time evenly.
Make sure the rain and dew are evenly distributed.
Eastern Conference head coach Nash also put on a pure bench lineup, allowing every star to show off on the court.
After Wang Yi came on the court, he directly hit two logo three-pointers.
Unfortunately, he failed to hit two logo three-pointers.
He only picked up one rebound and hit a gliding dunk on the fast break.
Other than that, there is nothing accomplished.
After playing for 5 minutes, he was replaced by the coach again.
After the first quarter, the West led by 3 points, 48-45.
Wang Yi only scored 2 points.
This made the on-site commentators, Reggie Miller and O'Neal shake their heads.
"It seems that Wang Yi is not a performance player. He is very strong in normal games, but he has made no achievements in the All-Star Game."
"This is the characteristic of some players. Many players are practical, but not suitable for performances. Especially Chinese players, their implicit culture makes them not good at performances."
"Just like Yao Ming in the past. At that time, he even had the strength to compete with me for the number one center in the league. But his performance in the All-Star Game was mediocre."
Barkley nodded repeatedly: "Not everyone is called Shaq. As long as Shaq appears, he will be the focus. Even if he doesn't play, he can steal all the attention. He is such a shameless guy."
O'Neill immediately raised his head and chest: "Thank you."
When the Chinese fans saw this, they were slightly anxious.
"Brother Yi is not in good condition today. He didn't hit as many three-pointers as Lillard. Among all the stars who played in the first quarter, he scored the least."
"Could it be that my brother Yi disdains performing on such occasions? His strength will only be used in actual combat!"
Some fans excused Wang Yi.
In the Tencent NBA live broadcast room.
Ke Fan is also excusing Wang Yi: "We Chinese people's cultural habits are to be reserved and low-key. We will not deliberately express ourselves. Therefore, it is actually foreseeable that Brother Yi will be in average form in the All-Star Game."
Su Qun adjusted the frames of his glasses.
"That's true, so we can't be too harsh on Wang Yi on this point."
"To put it another way, we are very lucky to see a Chinese person appear in the All-Star Game."
Chapter completed!
