Earlier, the NBA officially announced the results of this year's Cleveland All-Star second round of fan voting, although Curry is still in the position of the vote king with the total number of votes 4463426, but only the gap 77034 ahead of the second-place James (4386392), to know that in the first round of the selection, James was only 2018725, and Curry was a full 560,000 yuan, able to catch up in the second stage, and surpass Durant's total votes, we have reason to believe the 37-year-old Old Zhan , there is a chance to completely overtake Curry in the third stage and allow yourself to regain the throne of the ticket king.
Before this, James has won the honor of 8 All-Star Ticket King, only 1 time can catch up with Jordan 9 times, tied for the first place in the history of the league, as a 37-year-old veteran who is about to retire, he can still have such super popularity in the twilight of his career, I have to say that this is the charm of a superstar.
Because in the first stage, James did not open his own "full strength" mode, averaging only 25 points per game, and Curry led his Warriors all the way to singing, he himself also played excellent data, but also let James's popularity temporarily lag behind, but after the absence of thick eyebrows, the Lakers sacrificed five small lineups, but also let James usher in a complete outbreak, As of now, his average per game data has improved to 29.1 points, 7.4 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.1 blocks, and it is true that the Lakers' record is still not improving, but if he had not opened his own rampage mode, the Lakers would have fallen out of the top ten positions long ago.
Although they have suffered a wave of two consecutive losses in the near future, before this, the Lakers once ushered in a wave of 4 consecutive wins, and achieved a good result of 5 wins and 1 loss in the past 6 games (not counting the last 2 games), which is definitely inseparable from James' high score of 30+ when he was a father and a mother every game. On the other hand, Curry, who is currently in the position of ticket king, has recently experienced a serious downturn, since entering January, Curry's average score per game is not even 20, and the team has only achieved 4 wins and 3 losses, the team's record is not ideal, coupled with the decline in personal data, James will overtake in the third stage, which is basically a foregone conclusion.
And if James can seize this opportunity and successfully equal Jordan's record of 9 times this season, it is very likely that he will book 10 ticket kings in the future and let himself successfully surpass the epic record of Joe's helper. James, who is now 37 years old, should be getting closer and closer to the time of retirement, even if he can't get the ticket king in the next few seasons, but in the last year of his career, according to James's current super popularity, he will definitely be pushed to the throne of the ticket king by the fans again, just like Kobe Bryant's retirement tour in 16 years. At that time, although Bryant's average data per game was not as good as his peak (averaging only 17.6 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game), he was successfully elected as the vote king with a total number of votes 1891614, and became a 16-year Toronto All-Star as a starter.
Also for James, if he can be elected the vote king this year, even if he regrets not being able to become the highest vote in the next few seasons, at least in the last year of his career, he can definitely book an all-star ticket king in advance. There is even a chance to break the historical record of the total number of votes 4620809 set by the All-Star in 19 years, and make yourself the "first person in history" of the total number of all-star votes!
