Chapter 322 [The data is too terrifying, the IQ is too touching]

Guo Xu became the ticket king of this year's All-Star Game with 1.55 million votes; The second most popular in the west is Yao Ming, with 1.28 million votes; Bryant came in third with 1.21 million votes.

Maddie, the scoring champion, received 1.31 million votes and was the most popular in the East; Vince Carter has only played a dozen games for the Raptors, and the team's record is second to last in the East, but it still ranks second in the East with 1.3 million votes; The third most popular was Pistons blue-collar center Ben Wallace, who surprised with 1.12 million votes, narrowly beating Iverson.

The media reported that Guo Xu became the king of votes, and they unanimously believed that it was well deserved.

His stats are terrifying, ranking first in the league with 10.4 assists per game, fifth in the league in points per game with 26.3 points per game, and 1.7 steals per game with Francis in ninth and tenth place in the league.

Guo Xu's three-point shooting percentage ranks fifth in the league at 41.4%, and his three-point shooting percentage ranks first in the league, averaging 3.4 per game, and ranking ninth in free throw shooting percentage at 87.6%.

The high-end data Guo Xu is even more eye-catching, with a true shooting rate of 60.6%, ranking second in the league, second only to the Bulls' 60.7% "Little Shark" Eddie Curry, and surpassing the 60.2% "Big Shark" O'Neal. He's the only point guard on the list, and while Nash also shoots accurately, he makes too few free throws.

Shooting percentage has always been an important criterion for measuring a player's ability to score, and the NBA has a more fair calculation called "TS%" (True Shooting Percentage), which is calculated as True Shooting Percentage = Full Court Score / [2× (Full Court Shots + 0.44 ×Free Throw Shots)].

Players who theoretically make more free throws are more likely to make the list, although there are exceptions, such as Iverson, who averages 10 free throws per game, rarely shoots 50% from the field, and his league rankings for this statistic are usually outside the top 100, and even Fisher is often ahead of him among the starting guards, and he has not been on the list for several seasons.

Don't believe it, the high-level data of the "answer" is so bullish, with a true shooting rate of 48% to win the scoring title, and 51.8% to win the regular season MVP in the previous life. His opposite is Billups, who shoots around 40% from the field all year round, and at a glance, the true shooting percentage has exceeded 60% for many seasons.

True hit percentage doesn't show up on a normal stat sheet, but it's often noticed by scouts and general managers of many teams. No team wants to have a shot king, and true shooting percentage is often an important measure of how efficiently a player converts shots into points.

Guo Xu ranks third in the league in terms of efficiency, reaching 29.1, second only to Maddie at 30.3 and O'Neal at 29.5, and better than Duncan at 26.8, Garnett at 26.4, Kobe Bryant at 26.1 and a group of big-name stars.

Guo Xu played this kind of data, and still received a "selfless" evaluation, because he only averaged 17.7 shots per game, and he couldn't make it to the iron list. Iverson, who scored just 1.4 points higher than him, averaged 23.7 shots per game and 14 irons per game.

You know, Iverson shot two percentage points higher than last season, with four fewer shots, and Larry Brown praised him many times after winning the game for becoming selfless and being able to lead his teammates better. Guo Xu, who is obviously stronger than Iverson, is too normal to become the king of votes.

The other four starters in the West are Kobe, Garnett, Duncan, and Yao Ming.

O'Neal's votes are not as good as rookie Yao Ming, so he is very depressed, but he is not convinced, as long as Chinese fans can participate in voting, Yao Ming must be the starter.

The bench seven are: Nash, Nowitzki, Marion, Gary Payton, Steve Francis, Stojakovic, O'Neal.

There are many All-Star pearls in the West, and they have not been selected for the Star Game by playing luxury data, such as the "Memphis Three Bears" who currently have an eighth record in the West, the veteran Carl Malone who is nearly 40 years old and still plays 20+8+5, "Captain" Elton Brand, Rashid Wallace of the Trailblazers, etc.

The eastern troops are making up stars, and there is almost no one to choose from on the inside.

Starting five: Iverson, Maddy, Carter, Jermaine O'Neal, Ben Wallace.

Sub seven: Jason Kidd, Stephen Marbury, Michael Jordan, Jamal Marshburn, Paul Pearce, Antoine Walker, Brad Miller.

The East really couldn't find a star inside, so they could only let Miller play, with only 13 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.6 assists. Unlike the Cavaliers' "Big Z" Ilgoskas, Miller's Pacers are currently ranked first in the East, and he also has some popularity, because many Chinese fans believe that he is a super hunk who can "beat O'Neal".

I don't know when it began to circulate in China that Miller is not as good as O'Neal when it comes to playing, and O'Neill is not as good as Miller when it comes to fighting.

Indeed, a Chinese sports magazine said that Ao Fat couldn't stand Miller's small movements, so he threw punches at him, Miller deftly dodged, and beat Ao Fat with two backhand punches.

The truth is that Miller dodged a punch, and then was crushed by Ao Fat Taishan, Ao Fat smashed with eight punches, Miller had no room to fight back, if it weren't for the Bulls players hugging O'Neal, Miller would be finished.

There was also a very controversial thing going on with the Eastern Stars, with many people scolding Vince Carter.

The reason was that "Flyer" Jordan lost to Iverson, Maddie and Carter in the last All-Star Game, and thus missed the All-Star start. Subsequently, Iverson and Maddie successively expressed their willingness to give up the Eastern Conference All-Star starting position to Big Brother Jordan, but they were both politely rejected by Jordan.

Two people made a statement, but Carter remained silent throughout the process, which caused dissatisfaction among the media and NBA celebrities.

Then when a reporter asked Carter if he planned to give up his All-Star starting position to his brother Jordan, Carter bluntly refused. Celebrities apparently don't want to see the last All-Star Game of a generation of legends play as substitutes, and TNT commentator Charles Barkley and East Force head coach Isiah Thomas have come out to blast Carter.

Carter is currently averaging 18.4 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3 assists per game, shooting 45% from the field, which is indeed a bit unworthy of a starter.

What's worse than the data is Carter's emotional intelligence, giving up the starter is a matter of one sentence, and it is unknown whether Jordan agrees or not. This product is not allowed to be interviewed, and he publicly refuses to be interviewed, isn't this looking for spray? If Jordan is in the west, Guo Xu will definitely be the first to express his willingness to give up his starting position, gain the reputation of "respecting his predecessors", and it is so simple to gain people's favor.

Carter also has a low IQ. He showed his stupidity back in his rookie season when he signed a 10-year, 50 million sneaker endorsement contract with Puma, and this year he is even more stupid to chill the fans who support him.

After the Raptors' last game before the star game, a reporter asked Carter if he would participate in the slam dunk contest in the future? The reason is that Richardson has no opponents in recent years, and many fans want to see Carter compete in the slam dunk contest.

Carter frowned, looked cool, and replied without thinking: "The dunk is overrated, I won't dunk again".

Carter, who gained a lot of popularity with his wonderful dunks, actually said that "dunks are overrated", isn't this clearly telling everyone that "Carter is overrated"? This guy's IQ is so touching.

After reading the news, Guo Xu felt that it was no accident that Carter, who had been praised by the league for many years in his previous life, gradually changed from a four-time All-Star ticket king to an ordinary star, and then fell to a role player.

In fact, Carter's starting point is higher than Kobe's, but he really isn't the material to become a superstar......
