When the MVP awarded the post-match MVP, Guo Xu answered reporters' questions with a smile as usual, and divided part of the credit to his teammates.

"We have a lot of guys who can score, so I just have to pass the ball well and let them finish the offense. Jason Richardson and Morris Peterson and I had a very good understanding when I was in college. And Kenyon Martin, I was a teammate for the first time with him, and it felt so good. He had a very strong finishing ability after pick-and-roll. As long as I handed the ball to him, it would be easy to score."

In this game, Martin scored 23 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks, and made six dunks. If the opponent had not had three fouls, his dunks would have been more.

Martin is naturally outstanding in being the No. 1 pick. He is a suitable inside player for running, bombing and pick-and-roll tactics. If the Lakers have such a power forward and Guo Xu this year, the Bulls' record of 72 wins and 10 losses can be easily broken. In contrast, Lakers veteran Horez Grant is too slow and is simply playing basketball.

It is true that Martin is not a superstar, but he is not the "cake king" who relies solely on Kidd's feeding balls in many people in his previous life.

The Nets' ability to reach the Finals in 2002 and 2003 is directly related to Martin's performance. He did not suffer any losses against power forwards from the Eastern Conference teams in the playoffs. Especially in the 2003 Finals, Martin played against Duncan, and the first four games were evenly divided. In the fifth and six games, Martin was physically unwell and was beaten by Duncan. The Nets also lost two games in a row to watch the Spurs win the championship.

If the Nets win the championship by chance in 2003, the FMVP is mostly Martin's. Martin's performance was obviously better than Kidd when both sides were 2-2. As for Martin's poor performance after leaving the Nets, it was because he had minimally invasive surgery on both knees and his physical fitness had severely declined.

The reporter asked: "Many people feel that you already have the ability to play in the All-Stars. Will you feel depressed if you failed to be selected this time?"

Guo Xu shook his head and said, "No, I will definitely be selected as the All-Star in the future. I am still young."

The reporter asked: "Do you have the confidence to win the championship in tomorrow's three-point competition?"

Guo Xu smiled and said, "I dare not say this. I think the level of people who are good at shooting in the league should be small. The performance on the spot is very important. Who can win depends mainly on luck."

Guo Xu really has no confidence in the three-point competition. When he practices three-point competition, he is accustomed to pretending that someone is defending, and then dribbling and making moves quickly. Even in the time loop, he has never practiced a fixed-point shooting like a player who takes the ball from the shelf by himself.

In his opinion, this shooting rhythm has nothing to do with the game, and the training is not very meaningful. You can't practice hard for a while and just pretend to be a B in front of fans on weekends, right? Then he would rather rely on luck and save time to do something else.

In the future, Curry won once in the three-point competition four times. Those who are good at dribbling and shooting are not as good as those who are good at fixed-point shooting and catch-and-shooting in the three-point competition.

Players like Capono are more likely to win three-pointers, and Novak is OK, but he is too unfamous and the NBA officials do not invite him.

Sure enough, during the next day's event, Guo Xu only scored 16 points and was eliminated in the preliminary round. Lei Allen scored 19 points in the final and won the three-pointer.

Opportunities are for those who are prepared. It is difficult for Guo Xu to beat his opponent if he has not practiced this deliberately.

In the subsequent "finale" slam dunk contest, Jason Richardson was amazing, overcoming Mason and Byron Davis won the championship. His all-received turn dunk, and his hand-changing dunk was a little stiff. In terms of aesthetics, he was incomparable to Vince Carter, and he was more than enough to beat the others.

On Sunday, Guo Xu sat on the sidelines to watch the All-Star Game, which was a bit regretful.

In his previous life, the All-Stars were hailed as the most classic star game in history in 2001. The East was still 21 points behind in the last nine minutes of the game, and then completed an incredible reversal under the leadership of Iverson. The East defeated the West 111-110, and Iverson also won the MVP.

Guo Xu still remembered that game. In the first 39 minutes, the Western Conference All-Stars used their height advantage to completely control the game. However, Iverson suddenly broke out and scored 15 points. Marbury, who had been invisible before, made two three-pointers in the last 53 seconds, rewritten the ending.

Now because of the butterfly effect caused by Guo Xu, the star game has become a pure one-sided one. Iverson did not explode in the end, scoring 20 points and 7 assists in the whole game. The Western Conference won 137 to 105 by 32 points.

The butterfly effect is that O'Neal's foot was not injured. He participated in the All-Star Game. In just 28 minutes, he scored 32 points, 15 rebounds and 3 assists, and won the MVP.

The most declining All-Star player in the East is the 76ers blocker Ratliff, who broke his wrist in the game against the Rockets two days before the Stars' weekend and was reimbursed for the season.

Then the Raptors' blue-collar insider, Antonio Davis, who was selected as an All-Star for the first time in his career, was promoted to the starter, and veteran Mutombo was added.

When both sides jumped the ball, Davis, who was 206CM tall and weighed 100 kilograms, was directly facing O'Neal, Excuse me?

Before the game, when predicting the victory or defeat between the two sides, the media was unanimously optimistic about O'Neal's win in the West. Iverson once said dissatisfiedly: "It's amazing to have O'Neal? Can you do whatever you want if you have fat people?"

Sorry, having a fat man can really do whatever he wants.

This is a star game. It is impossible for the Eastern Conference to use the "shark-cutting tactic" to send O'Pang to free throws. The starting center is Davis, and the power forward is Anthony Mason, who is 201CM tall. They can't defend at all.

Mo Ning was shot as the starter of the Eastern Conference by fans in one game. Perhaps real fans had long thought of the consequences of his absence.

There are two other monsters in the West, Garnett and Duncan. The height, wingspan, and the three of them are in the middle. The performance of the Eastern outside stars is slightly superior, which can only prevent them from losing more than 50 points.

The Washington Star Weekend ended, and the Lakers became the biggest winner, with the player winning the MVP of two games.

On the official strength list, the Lakers continued to rank first. After the game, all media gave Lakers players high praise. Many experts believe that they still have the opportunity to hit the Bulls' regular season record. They only lost six games and scored a very long winning streak, and they still tied the record if they lost four more games.

There are also news that the "All-Star Curse" was mentioned, and I feel sorry for the Wizards. As the hosts, they were too failed and no one participated in the star competition. Hamilton was a so-called player in the rookie competition.

This is an interesting phenomenon in the NBA. Usually, the host teams that hold All-Star Games will be in a bad mood and perform poorly in the regular season or playoffs.

In 1995, the All-Stars were held in Phoenix. The Suns, who ranked second in the Western Conference in the regular season, were reversed by the Rockets while leading 3-1 in the playoffs, becoming the biggest upset of the year.

The Spurs, with David Robinson, have always been strong Western Conference teams until they held the All-Star Game in 1996. They lost to the Jazz in the playoffs that year. Next season, Robinson missed most of the season due to injury, resulting in the team winning only 20 games, becoming the fastest-sliding team in history.

The Wizards can't even enter the playoffs, so the Bulls are the worst.
