Chapter 283 Ranking causes controversy(1/2)
"The day's training is over again!"
In the training hall, Wang Zelin was sweating profusely. After settling the previous personal matters, he started his own training plan.
Unfortunately, his progress is obviously slower than last year.
In other words, once your strength has improved to a certain level, it is extremely difficult to make further progress.
But Wang Zelin has no reason to give up, because he knows where the limits of his abilities are...
So what if progress is slow?
That is also progress.
How many players have spent an entire summer just to gain a little improvement in personal strength.
In comparison, he is much luckier!
Because he has a system, which is disguised as a strength progress bar, he will not stop training until he reaches the end point.
Besides, he is only under 20, which is the age for hard work. Appropriate enjoyment can serve as a spice to a boring life. If you enjoy it too much, you will really regret living a new life.
…
During the time when Wang Zelin stayed at home in silent retreat, many sensational events occurred outside.
For example, the gas bomb incident in Syria, the opening of the 12th National Games, Microsoft's acquisition of Nokia, the establishment of the Shanghai Free Trade Zone, etc...
The above are all world-class events. Wang Zelin just paid attention to them casually and then stopped watching them. Instead, he focused more on the NBA.
After all, if nothing happens, he will still be here for more than ten years.
The NBA has been quite lively recently.
There are rumors that league chairman David Stern's health is getting worse day by day, and the time for league successor Adam Silver to take office is approaching...
Another source said: Mr. Warcraft, who just fled Los Angeles on July 6 this year and finalized a four-year, $87.6 million contract with Mosaic, has a very harmonious relationship with his new partner James Harden. The two were in Houston last night
Partying all night long in the largest nightclub, this is the fourth time Howard and Harden have stayed in a nightclub together since arriving in Houston...
In response to this, Wang Zelin laughed: How can two nightclub madmen not be happy when they are teammates?
There is also news that Derrick Rose, who has been away from the court for 17 months due to injury, is basically confirmed to have recovered from the injury and will further plan to return in the Bulls preseason next month.
The youngest regular season MVP in history!
In one sentence, it fully describes what a genius Rose was back then, as well as his popularity in the league and in the hearts of fans around the world.
Rose is back!
It became the hottest news in early September.
It wasn't until September 17 that a piece of news successfully took away the heat of Rose's comeback.
On September 17, US time, "ESPN" and "TrueHoop" jointly launched the ranking of NBA active players for the third consecutive year. In the next few days, it will be updated from 500th to 1st in order.
In the first period on the 17th, players ranked 411th to 500th were brought.
I have to say that although many people hate ESPN, it is really not impossible for it to be where it is today and become the most famous sports television network in the world.
As long as there is selfishness and desire, people cannot escape the words fame and fortune.
The so-called top ranking list of active players captures people's general pursuit of fame and fortune. No wonder it is so popular all over the United States.
This ranking refers to the opinions of ESPN's season preview expert group, which evaluates the players' expected performance this season in terms of production volume, and then derives a numerical value, based on which the ranking is made.
The specific method is: each member of the expert group will score the player between 0 and 10, and the average value is finally calculated as the player's ranking points.
Not to mention, many stars also have some concerns about their ranking on the list.
There were several familiar faces among the fans who appeared on the list on the first day.
For example, James White is ranked 474th. This guy's status in the hearts of fans is not necessarily lower than that of some NBA stars.
No way, who made this guy's nickname the Ultimate Slam Dunk King!
Dunking is one of the most popular skills in basketball.
And White can be said to have achieved the ultimate in dunking.
At least in the hearts of Chinese fans, White does fulfill a lot of their expectations.
The Mo G incident has not yet come out. Wang Zelin wants the Portland Trail Blazers to replace the Mosaics and become the home team in the hearts of Chinese fans. There is still a big gap.
Dayao's imprint on this team is indeed too profound!
In addition to White, there are also Kwame Brown, who was selected by Jordan and is now ranked 450th, and Quentin Richardson, the 2005 All-Star three-point champion who is ranked 444th.
It is worth mentioning that due to the impact of the XD scandal, the ranking of left-handed magician Lamar Odom, a veteran of the Lakers' two consecutive championships, dropped directly from 130th last season to 462nd...
Even though there is still some time before the distribution of players on the list ends, he is very likely to become the player with the fastest decline on this list.
Time flies, and by the end of September, all player rankings for the 2013~2014 season have been announced.
The first place is still the little emperor LeBron James.
In fact, he has been No. 1 on the list since 2011, the first year this list was held.
This year it has been the third consecutive year!
And compared with last year, James' personal selection points finally completed the leap from 9.99 points to a full score of 10 points!
This is the only one on the list!
But this is not surprising. After all, James has just completed two consecutive championships and has shown that he is very likely to win the third championship and then establish a dynasty. It is normal for him to be ranked in this position.
The second place is Kevin Durant. His position has not fluctuated as last year, and he continues to hold the title of "No. 2 in the Millennium".
The "Du Lao Er" meme has begun to spread recently.
You don’t need to think about it to know that in a certain mansion in Oklahoma, several more iPhones are about to suffer.
No. 3 is Clippers forward Chris Paul, the current No. 1 point guard and well-deserved. He replaced Dwight Howard, who was third last year.
And the man who once replaced James alone is gone forever.
The 4th place... is somewhat surprising. It is the bearded golfer James Harden, who has made a leap forward from 26th place last year.
No. 5 is Durant’s teammate, Russell Westbrook.
The sixth place is also very unexpected, it is the recently comeback Bulls leader, Derrick Rose.
He hasn't played for nearly two years, and once he came back, he shot up to the top 10 on the list, which shows how much the outside world is looking forward to Rose.
It's a pity that Fengchen Rose will never come back.
No. 7 Dwight Howard, who just moved to Houston, fell from being a TOP3 player last season to No. 7.
The league’s No. 1 center?
I don’t know how many people are laughing behind my back!
No. 8 is a brand new player...the leading center of the Portland Trail Blazers ~ Wang Zelin!
oh!
The ranking suddenly became interesting.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that ESPN is trying to make people angry.
One is the center of the Western Conference Finals team, and the other is Howard, who has not even played in the playoffs. Ranking Wang Zelin one place behind Howard is insulting if it is not an intentional arrangement.
Regardless of ESPN's starting point, one thing is that they succeeded. They succeeded in angering a vicious beast in Portland!
"You are deliberately disgusting me, right? Then just wait for a slap in the face!" Wang Zelin's expression became meaningful when the phone scrolled to this point.
This is the first time he hopes to fight against Mosaic. When the time comes, he must give the happy beast a good lesson.
The last two in the top ten are Warriors leader Stephen Curry and Cavaliers leader Kyrie Irving.
After the top ten list was sent out, fans suddenly remembered a person who had been ignored.
What about number 24 in Los Angeles?
Oh! This season he was ranked 17th by ESPN.
Wait, number 17?
This seems to be the first time in the new millennium that Kobe has fallen into the top 10...
"Marc Gasol, Kevin Love, Tony Parker, Paul George... these guys can actually be ranked in front of me, what?"
In a mansion in Los Angeles.
After reading the list, Kobe was furious, picked up the basketball and walked to the basement.
ESPN's approach successfully angered this poisonous snake!
Presumably, after the start of the new season, there will be one more member of the army ready to slap ESPN in the face.
…
Portland.
"Seconds! This is really wonderful!"
To be continued...
