Basketball's No. 1 Anti-Fan

Chapter 166 There are many famous people and right and wrong

Hansen played the entire first quarter and scored 20 points, setting a new personal high for scoring in a single quarter, while also limiting Irving's performance.

Jamison's offensive efficiency was not good due to Faried's entanglement. The Grizzlies lost first and then won in the first quarter, and were already leading the Cavaliers by double digits at the end.

The game seemed to have no suspense, but in the opening period of the second quarter, the Cavaliers kept the score difference.

Thompson is tough on defense and is very good at offensive rebounding. With the growth of Cunningham and Ramon Sessions on the outside, their bench strength is actually quite strong.

Han Sen did not come back as a substitute until there were 6 minutes left in the quarter. He was in great form after his return and scored another 8 points in the quarter. He had scored 28 points by the end of the half.

The Grizzlies also lead the Cavaliers 55-42.

Although the Cavaliers are behind, the score difference still leaves hope.

Until the third quarter.

After the halftime break, Irving used a three-pointer from outside to sound the clarion call for the Cavaliers' counterattack.

Then the Grizzlies beat the Cavaliers 15 to 3.

Hansen contributed an outside three-pointer, two mid-range shots, and two assists in this counterattack.

With 2 minutes left in the quarter, Hansen was substituted off the court for rest.

此时LED大屏幕上再次给出了他今晚的数据：22投16中，三分4中2，罚球8中7，41分6板5助攻3抢断。

Hansen scored a career-high 43 points when he returned to Cleveland for the first time last season. He scored 40+ points in three quarters when he returned to Cleveland for the first time this season. Quicken Loans Arena, the place where he once shouted "This is my home court", has become his blessed land.

In the end, the Grizzlies defeated the Cavaliers 103-87 on the road and won the victory that was broadcast live across the United States.

Hansen attended the post-match press conference with Joerger.

"What do you think of Irving's performance tonight?" a reporter from TNT asked Hansen. Irving played well tonight, scoring 25 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

"He is a very talented and competitive player and I love playing against him on the court."

He threw some heavy punches on the court, but after the game, Hansen still gave Irving a high evaluation.

"You had a strong desire to attack tonight. Is it related to what Gay said before the game?" The reporter's subsequent question made Han Sen a little confused.

After the training session, he went straight back to the locker room and had no idea what Guy said.

"He said you can get 40 points anytime you want," the reporter reminded.

Han Sen laughed when he heard this.

The NBA today is not the same as the era before he traveled through time. The offensive tempo of the NBA today is slow, the defensive intensity is high, and there are more tactics. And the most important point is that because the second offense still has 24 seconds, there are not so many rounds.

So scoring 40 points in this era is not that easy.

Of course, if you ignore the team's record, or your teammates' abilities are too poor, you can certainly do it by shooting as crazy as Kobe did.

Against a team like the Cavaliers, he can indeed score 40 points whenever he wants, but against strong teams like the Lakers, Spurs, and Heat, it depends on the opponent's defensive strategy and touch, so Gay is just showing off for him.

"Yes." Han Sen nodded. He understood the truth, but he couldn't miss the chance to gain black fan points.

At this moment, Joerger picked up the microphone in front of him and said with a smile: "In the fourth quarter, I asked Hansen if he wanted to play, but he refused. I think if he wanted, he could definitely get 50 points tonight."

What is the best assist? Hollins certainly can't say that.

NBA coaches are just that incompetent, but the emotional value they provide is very helpful for the atmosphere of a team.

"Han can score 50 points anytime he wants."

Journalism once again worked hard and put Hansen on the hot search list.

This earned him a lot of black fans.

"I got a false impression by scoring points against a weak team", "Only Kobe is qualified to say such things", "You can be energetic when you are young, but you can't be arrogant"...

After seeing this, Han Sen directly forwarded the news to his personal social media.

Although his current focus is to improve Uncle Drew to his bottleneck, and because of the shortened season, there is not enough time to train new talents, but you can never have too many black fans.

However, when he was forwarding the news, he noticed that the number of his Facebook followers had exceeded 300 million.

This doesn't count as a "big V", but thinking back to the time when he only had his own account number 58 following him, it's still hard not to feel emotional.

And after a few glances, he found that many "big Vs" followed him, such as Selena Gomez, Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian...

It seems that the previous incident had escalated beyond his imagination.

However, Han Sen didn't think that paying attention to it meant anything. After all, when you see some interesting news, you can't help but be curious.

What really made him nervous were the private messages. He clicked on them and saw that one of them was from Madonna.

And the content was very explicit, roughly meaning that she wanted to invite him to her home to "play".

Han Sen shuddered suddenly.

Madonna is 53 this year, right? Still so extravagant?

In February, thanks to the social media that Hansen had forwarded before, he faced even more intense defense from his opponents during the game.

Is this a bad thing for him?
Obviously not. Just like other talents he exchanged before, only high-intensity games can accelerate the improvement of his talent. He now hopes that his opponents will guard him tightly.

Moreover, after acquiring the passing talent, he can switch back and forth between scoring and passing, and will not perform poorly due to the opponent's high-intensity defense.

So by some strange coincidence, it actually accelerated his leveling speed.

And just when he was leveling up with peace of mind, his black fan value suddenly increased twice.

One wave is related to Jeremy Lin.

Jeremy Lin joined the Knicks in late January and seized the opportunity to launch "Linsanity" in early February.

As one of the only two yellow defenders in active service, he would naturally be compared to Han Sen.

Then ESPN came to a surprising conclusion: "Sometimes your performance in the NBA is just because of opportunities. Han got the opportunity in Memphis, and now Lin got the opportunity in New York. They are no different."

The sarcasm in these words is obvious.

The other wave is related to Howard.

Howard's transfer application ended in a nearly farcical manner after lasting for two months.

After Howard issued a statement about "loyalty", he announced that he would exercise his 2012 player option and stay with the team until at least 2013.

This was immediately ridiculed by many stars. After all, Howard actively applied for the trade, but stayed for the reason of loyalty.

This matter had nothing to do with Han Sen. In fact, if you really asked Han Sen what he thought, Han Sen didn't think Howard did anything wrong at this time.

In essence, there is no difference between Howard and Kobe's two trade requests so far. At the very least, it's better than James' decision last year, right?

However, the reason why this is related to him can be traced back to his words "Don't let loyalty hurt you".

Just like "the smartest decision", those were all Han Sen's words to taunt James, but now James fans are using them to discredit Howard.

What Swift said at the beginning has been verified: they attack you not because of what you did, but because they want to attack you.

As the saying goes, when you are famous you are prone to gossip.

However, this did allow Han Sen to realize another way to gain black fan points, which was to increase his influence outside the field. Currently, his influence mainly came from within the field, which was obviously not enough.

In fact, his relationship with Swift has helped him increase his influence off the court. Apart from anything else, most of the contribution to his getting the one million black fans he needed for "Uncle Drew" came from Taylor Swift's fans.

It’s just that now he has broken up with Swift, so unless he maliciously smears Swift, that group won’t contribute any black fans.

But there are many ways off-stage, such as singing... let’s forget about this.

Movies are a good way to do this. Many NBA stars have done this. The most famous one is O'Neal's guest appearance in "Scream". Kareem Abdul-Jabbar also played against Bruce Lee in "Game of Death".

Of course, it's not just a cameo. Once I achieve success in the future, it's not impossible for me to star in a movie like Jordan.

When it comes to movie scripts, this time traveler has quite a few in his mind.

While Han Sen was leveling up and thinking about how to do something off-site in the summer, the final results of this year's All-Star voting were released.
Without any suspense, Hansen received 180 million votes and successfully became the vote king.

Why are there fewer votes this year than in the past?

It is inevitable that American fans' attention to basketball will decrease during the shortened season, and it is obvious that the league has increased the voting proportion of the Eastern Conference fans.

But you still can't underestimate the Eastern Conference fans, because they also voted for Gasol to be the starting center in the Western Conference.

Of course, that is also inseparable from the outstanding performance of Gasol Jr.

Gasol is averaging 16.6 points, 9.5 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game so far this season, all of which are career highs.

Although this is also related to the decline of centers in the league.

At this time, there have been reports that the league is considering eliminating the "center" position in the All-Star Game, but that will happen at the earliest in the next session.

Even if he was just catching the last train, Gasol Jr. had done a great job in improving his resume.

After the voting results came out, Gasol Jr. also accepted media interviews.

For this result, he thanked Han Sen profusely:
“We all know the sacrifices Han has made for the team, and my performance is inseparable from his support.”

This is not a compliment, just like Guy knew to defend Hansen in front of the media before, Hansen has improved his passing this season, and those assists are more useful than any Rolls-Royce.

Considering that Conley has also accepted the league's invitation to participate in the Skills Challenge, Hansen will not be alone in the All-Star Game this year.

Time flies and it is already late December.

The Grizzlies had another nationally televised game before the All-Star Game, challenging the Lakers in Los Angeles.

The Lakers have also encountered some troubles this season, the biggest of which is unexpected, which is the physical condition of their main center Okafor.

Except for some ankle injuries due to weight problems in the early stages of his career, Okafor's attendance rate has been very high in subsequent seasons.

In the past four seasons, he played in all three seasons, and the only time he missed was 72 games.

But this season when he joined the Lakers, he suffered recurrent injuries to his left knee and had to play on and off.

In addition, Jordan Hill's defensive ability is much worse than expected, and the team has big problems with rotation in the interior.

But this trouble cannot stop the Lakers from advancing triumphantly, and they are now at the top of the league.

Driven by the dual engines of Paul and Gasol, and with a strong desire for his sixth championship, Kobe played at the highest efficiency of his career.

In this game, Lakers head coach Mike Brown used a one-on-one defense against Hansen throughout the court, using Artest, Barnes, and even Kobe in rotation.

The Grizzlies play as a team, and cutting off the connection between Hansen and his teammates is more effective than preventing Hansen from scoring.

Brown's offensive level is not very good, but his defensive attainments are obviously online.

The end result was that Hansen gave his all in this game and scored his first 50 points in his career.

But the Grizzlies eventually lost 106-115.

科比得到了41分，加索尔20分13板5助攻，保罗14分14助攻。

This game is the best reflection of Hansen's current ability. Even against a championship contender, he can still score 50 points if he tries his best.

But the losing statistics are meaningless, and Hansen only said one sentence after the game: We will win back.

The next time the two sides meet will be in March, after the All-Star Game.

After returning to Memphis, Hansen met Randolph at the training hall.

Time flies. It has been more than a month since Randolph was injured, and Randolph can already start some off-ball training.

At this rate of recovery, he will be able to return after the All-Star Game.

Han Sen went over to greet Randolph, then practiced with him for a while.

Losing to the Lakers fully demonstrates that basketball is not a one-man sport. Although Conley, Gay and Gasol Jr. have all made progress this season, Randolph is indispensable against an experienced opponent like the Lakers.

It doesn't mean that we will definitely win if Randolph plays in the game, but if we play a series, there will be a big difference between having Randolph and not having him.

Randolph also has a strong desire to return at this time.

It's not that Hansen is fighting alone, but the Grizzlies played so well without him, and if he doesn't come back, his position in the team will be gone.

"Winning is not scary, but it's embarrassing if someone is missing." This is the same for everyone.

On February 2, Randolph continued to stay in Memphis to resume training, while Hansen flew to Orlando with Gasol Jr. and Conley to participate in the All-Star Game.

Han Sen only had to participate in the main competition this year, so he had a lot less time in the first few days compared to past All-Star Games.

On the first day, in addition to participating in business activities, he spent the rest of the time hanging out with Gasol Jr. and others.

The next day, Conley was going to participate in a skills challenge, so he and Gasol Jr. sat in the front row in suits, ready to watch his game.

In addition to Conley, this year's skills challenge also includes Curry, Westbrook, Wall, Rondo, Parker, and Irving, which is very star-studded.

Especially Irving, who scored 34 points and 9 assists in the Rookie Challenge yesterday, attracting much attention from the outside world.

Han Sen was chatting with Gasol about who would win tonight when he suddenly heard a female voice greeting him.

He turned his head in confusion, and then saw a very familiar face.

Scarlett Johansson.

It seemed that there was a man sitting next to him before, how come it suddenly became Scarlett?

And when Scarlett greeted him, she smiled and extended her hand to him, as if they were very familiar with each other.

Out of courtesy, Hansen shook hands with Scarlett.

"Have we met?" he asked curiously.

Scarlett shook her head and replied with a smile:

"I've heard about you."

The past few months have been very difficult for me, but I am not as loyal as many people think or describe. (Defection) is not my instinct." - Howard talks about the reason for staying.

②: Western Conference starting lineup: Hansen, Kobe, Durant, Griffin, Gasol

Substitutes: Paul, Westbrook, Parker, Aldridge, Nowitzki, Love, Bynum
Eastern Conference starting lineup: Rose, Wade, James, Anthony, Howard
