This is a very perplexing matter.
Wei Guo cannot pass the ball to his teammates and let them make the decision, because everyone knows that if the Western All-Star team wins, Wei Guo will be the All-Star MVP.
In the previous All-Star Game, Wei Guo had already won the All-Star Game MVP.
so...
Whether or not Wei Guo wins the All-Star Game MVP this time, he really doesn't care.
However, he also won the Three-Point Contest, Skills Challenge, and Slam Dunk Contest at this year's All-Star Game. If he could win the All-Star MVP again, it would be perfect.
But this was Jordan's last All-Star Game, and the Eastern Conference All-Stars kept feeding him the ball.
Everyone hopes Jordan can win another All-Star Game MVP, and the Western Conference All-Stars haven't been playing serious defense.
Now...
It all depends on what choice Wei Guo makes.
Wei Guo could choose to give up the offense, but he wouldn't deliberately miss to give Jordan an advantage.
After a 0.7-second internal struggle, Wei Guo cursed under his breath, "Damn, when did I become such a saint?"
The All-Star Game is indeed just an entertainment event.
However, for the final possession, Wei Guo could only promise not to use the shooting rune; he would still play seriously.
........
Wei Guo stood two steps outside the three-point line, looking at the five players from the East team.
"Who's going to guard against me?"
Asking this question means that Wei is going to fight seriously.
But he still gave the Eastern All-Stars a chance. Now he's two steps from the three-point line, but if no one is guarding him, he can definitely put the ball in the basket.
Time is passing.
The five players on the Eastern Conference All-Star team looked at each other in bewilderment.
final...
Jordan walked up to Wei Guo.
With nine seconds left in the game, everyone knew that Wei Guo had to play seriously, and Jordan had to defend seriously.
Wei Guo vs. Jordan!!!
The god on the mountain and the god who came down from the mountain.
Jordan stuck close to Wei Guo's defense. Wei Guo didn't stop the ball, but dribbled behind his back repeatedly before quickly turning around and sticking close to Jordan's left side, trying to break through to the basket.
Jordan was very close...
Wei Guo failed to get past Jordan in one step. After pulling the ball back, he dribbled with a series of crossover steps, then touched the ball with his toes and took a step back.
There are only 3.1 seconds left in the game!
After stepping back, Wei Guo feigned a crossover, a move so precise that even the referee couldn't see it clearly. Jordan then pounced on him again, and Wei Guo turned around once more, finally shaking off Jordan before shooting.
This set of movements was too fast. Although it only lasted 7 seconds, Wei Guo made eleven feints.
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball went through the net cleanly.
"Beep!!!"
Time finally ran out, and the game ended.
159:158!!
Wei Guo delivered a game-winning shot against the Eastern All-Stars, leading the Western All-Stars to victory.
Match statistics:
Wei Guo: 39 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks
Jordan: 41 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 1 block
........
This was Jordan's farewell performance at the All-Star Game, and it's perhaps a pity that the Eastern Conference All-Stars failed to win.
but...
Even if the Eastern Conference All-Stars win and Jordan gets the AmVp, if Wei Guo gives up on the final shot, he will still feel very uncomfortable.
Jordan had his own pride; he went all out on offense while Jordan went all out on defense.
Although he ultimately failed to stop Wei Guo, Jordan understood that even in his prime, it would be difficult for him to defend against Wei Guo's combo.
In a regular season game, teammates would help defend Jordan after he gets shaken off, but this last play put Wei Guo and Jordan in a one-on-one situation, and in the end, Jordan lost.
........
After the competition, Wei Guo went to the organizing committee.
It's unclear what Wei Guo said, but the organizing committee members first frowned, then their faces lit up with smiles.
After a while...
It's time to announce the All-Star MVP.
"This year's All-Star Game MVPs are Jordan and Wei Guo!"
The moment these words were uttered, the entire audience was stunned.
It has never happened before that two players have won the All-Star Game MVP award at the same time, and they are from two different teams.
Jordan was stunned...
Wei Guo was also stunned...
Wei Guo went to the organizing committee and said he wanted to award the All-Star MVP to Jordan. He didn't expect that the final result would be that the two of them would share the All-Star MVP.
Gentry reacted the fastest, leading the applause.
Then...
The players applauded, and the fans in the arena also stood up and applauded, bringing this dramatic result to a perfect end to this year's All-Star Game.
......
After the All-Star Game, the competition schedule is getting tighter and tighter.
James was the first player to enjoy live streaming in the NBA while still in high school, and this exceptionally talented young man was sought after by many teams.
However, James was still too young and wanted to skip the NCAA and go directly to the NCAA draft, so he didn't cause as much of a sensation as Duncan did back then, when Duncan caused nearly half of the teams in the league to tank.
Most teams are striving for a playoff spot.
and...
The regular season has quietly come to an end, and the playoffs are just around the corner.
