Chapter 325 [90% chance, historical record]

At the beginning of the game, Guo Xu played against Yao Ming for the first time, attracting Yao Ming, who switched defense and assisted to cut the inside, scored a dunk.

In the second round, he misplaced O'Neal Jr. in the counterattack, attracting McGrady to make up for defense and assist Garnett to get an all-over dunk.

In the third round, Ben Wallace did not change defense. Guo Xu and Yao Ming played pick-and-roll in the middle and then stopped and jumped to score easily.

In the fourth round, Ben Wallace replaced defense, Guo Xu assisted Yao Ming to score a high jump shot, and Iverson's height could not interfere with Yao Ming's shooting, who was 226cm tall. He chose to chase the defense and there was an open position.

Point guards and centers are most likely to cause misalignment when playing pick-and-roll. Guo Xu is the fastest in the west, Yao Ming is the highest in size, and both of them have a good shooting range.

After playing several more rounds, Guo Xu assisted Garnett to score a layup with an empty cut. As a striker, the "Wolf King" was misplaced against McGrady and had a big height advantage.

The Western Stars scored consecutive goals, while the Eastern Stars mainly passed the ball to Jordan's main attacker. Kobe was very embarrassed to keep a close watch. Jordan made a series of blacksmiths under interference, and the score difference quickly widened to double digits.

In 7 minutes, Guo Xu scored 2 points and sent 7 assists, including three assists Garnett and two assists Yao Ming, Kobe and Duncan.

Guo Xu partnered with O'Neal and Kobe in his second appearance, and the fans of the audience gave them warm applause.

The three of them still cooperated very well. Whether it was playing triangular offense, pick-and-roll offense or fast counterattack, the East could not defend itself. The opponent, who was 14-0, called a timeout. The other two players Marion and Francis also performed well. O'Neal grabbed the rebound and launched a fast attack with a pass, and the four rushed in the front.

When Kobe got out, the West used Marion to defend Jordan, and the "hackers" defended even harder. As the lowest-popular star of this year, Marion wanted to let fans know themselves by confronting Jordan.

Even if it is notorious, Marion is willing to do anything, and his face is just right for being a villain.

Guo Xu is the All-Star ticket king. Western Conference coach Nelson arranged pick-and-roll tactics for him and gave him a lot of playing time. Western Conference led by 28 points in just three quarters, and turned into garbage time in the final quarter.

Iverson cannot get rid of Guo Xu in singles, and he can't find a teammate to play pick-and-roll. He has no time to change defense in the inside.

In the Star Game, center Ben Wallace was just a blue-collar worker. Western players were too lazy to foul him and collectively ignored him. When he received the ball near the penalty area, anyone could just go up and interfere.

Ben Wallace can't play any of the five inside players in the West, even Nowitzki can become a super defensive player.

O'Neal Jr. has a relatively comprehensive offensive skill, but he happened to be in a sluggish state today and his shooting percentage is very low. Of course, even if he is in a very brave state, he will not be able to gain advantage against Duncan, Garnett and Nowitzki.

Guo Xu stared at Iverson on the defensive end, and when he encountered a cover, he bypassed the defense and interfered with the shooting. He really couldn't find a reason to deliberately defend the "black hole" to allow his opponent to play easily.

During the break, everyone was moved by Maria Carey's song "Hero". When the song was halfway through Jordan could no longer control his tears, and a strong man cried. The hero's basketball career was about to end, and the season was really over. The classic scene could only stay in the memories of the fans.

But no matter how moved it is, Western stars cannot help Jordan's team win, help him win the star match. As for Iverson, his performance is a steal, and there is no difference from Guo Xu.

Since he is also stealing Jordan's limelight, why doesn't Guo Xu perform better by himself?

In the end, the West beat the East 141 to 116.

Guo Xu played for 32 minutes, made 9 of 12 shots, made 2 of 3 three-pointers, scored 20 points, 2 rebounds, 16 assists and 2 steals, and three mistakes were slightly flawed, but no one cared because his shooting percentage was as high as 75%.

Garnett performed the second best, making 14 of 19 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 30 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals.

Kobe, O'Neal, Duncan and Francis also scored in double digits. Yao Ming became the only player in the West, playing for only 17 minutes, scoring 4 points and 2 rebounds.

It’s not that Guo Xu doesn’t want to pass, but Yao Ming really doesn’t know how to perform. He is a bit selfless. Facing Ben Wallace, who is short of himself, does not take the initiative to ask for the ball to play singles, and passes the ball in front of the pick-and-roll. There are many stars in the West, and Yao Ming is more likely to help his teammates create misalignment opportunities. His playing style is very reasonable, but no fans really like to watch this.

McGrady, the best performer in the East, scored 27 points. He performed a wonderful self-throwing, but he didn't play for a long time, only shot 15 times and hit 9 goals.

Jordan shot a lot like he did in his previous life, making only 7 of 21 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and only scored 16 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists. The audience could only sigh on the sidelines that Jordan was really old, and then applauded hard after he finally scored a goal.

Guo Xu and Garnett won the Star MVP together. At the award ceremony, the two praised each other, saying that it was a great thing to be a teammate in the Star Match.

Guo Xu is really cool. Once the two inside players were pulled out, Garnett, who played the small forward, cut in the empty space. The catch was a misplaced attack opportunity. Garnett jumped or caught the ball near the penalty area and made a layup. His shooting percentage was very high, adding many assists to Guo Xu.

Garnett couldn't feel good when he got back to the Timberwolves. He didn't have so many misplaced opportunities. He had to play the power forward honestly, without the super insider's withdrawal from the basket, nor did he feed him the ball.

If Garnett and Guo Xu join forces at the top, they will undoubtedly win the championship, but unfortunately they don’t have this fate.

This time, Guo Xu did not deliberately compete for MVP. The reason was that his style was too suitable for the All-Star Game. The opponent's outside defense was not very tough, the offensive rhythm was fast and it was easy to assist teammates. It was easy to get a misalignment after pick-and-roll.

In his third year of his career, he has won two MVPs in the Stars and was called "Stars of Stars" after the game. He is more dazzling than O'Neal and Kobe. The two stars played 25 minutes in the game.

Many people online analyze that Guo Xu's chances of winning the regular season MVP this year are 90%, not because of the league's support, but because his personal ability, data and record are comprehensive, and he is most qualified to be elected.

The Suns had a poor record last season, and Guo Xu led the team to win more than 20 games, scored and assisted 20+10.

The Spurs' record is not as good as the Suns, and the overall performance of the team is similar to last season. Although "Stone Buddha" Duncan reached the peak of his career and was stable at 20+10, he has won MVP last season. Even if the data is beautiful, it is difficult to convince the public.

Other players cannot compete with them. Either the team's record is bad, the data is poor, or the attendance rate is not high enough.

The stars of the Mavericks and Kings are flawed, and the stars of the Timberwolves and the Eastern Conference teams have no record. As long as Guo Xu can lead the team to play the top three in the Western Conference, he should be able to do it. The third in the Western Conference is the third in the league.

As long as he wins the award, Guo Xu will become the youngest regular season MVP winner in NBA history, breaking a historical record.

Because the Suns lost 13 games in the first 21 games and only lost two games after that, Suns fans often scolded the former Suns coach Frank Johnson who had disappeared from the NBA. If it weren't for him, Guo Xu's MVP would have been stable.
