February 18, 2013 at 7 o'clock in the evening, the All-Star Weekend dinner, the 62nd All-Star Game is about to kick off at the Toyota Center in Houston, under the wave of NBA globalization, the NBA All-Star Game has also become the only after the Finals, the NBA has the most influential event, taking this year's All-Star Weekend as an example, the All-Star Game that will kick off tonight will be through NBATV, TNT and ESPN three TV stations, Broadcast live to hundreds of millions of fans and viewers in 215 countries and territories around the world.

This year's All-Star Game, not only has changed at the time of voting, but as the largest number of fans, the market size is second only to the United States, and has also become the beneficiary of this reform, and the NBA signed a long-term broadcast agreement Penguin Video, won the right to vote for the All-Star MVP, Slam Dunk Contest champion, all viewers who watch All-Star through Penguin Video can enter the All-Star voting interface through Penguin Video, and starting from this year's All-Star Weekend, Both the All-Star MVP and the Blue Buckle Contest will add an audience voting session.

According to conservative estimates, the upcoming All-Star Game will attract at least more than 400 million viewers around the world, but before the All-Star Game begins, there are also some controversies, that is, the audience votes for the All-Star MVP link, because according to the previous practice, the player with the highest score on the winning side of the All-Star Game will be elected the star of the night, and now the audience voting link has been added. Audience voting is basically for their favorite star, so it's easy to break this convention, and it's hilarious if there is a player on the losing side, or a player who doesn't perform well, wins the All-Star MVP.

Compared with last season's All-Star Game, this season's Western All-Star starters have changed a lot, Meng Xu, who came back after four years, was elected as this season's All-Star vote king with an advantage of 1.1 million votes over second-place Duncan, and in addition to Meng Xu, Tim Duncan, who has missed the All-Star for two seasons, was also selected as this season's Western All-Star starter with the second most votes after Meng Xu, in addition to Meng Xu and Duncan, the remaining three starters in the West are still Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant and Chris Paul.

As for the Eastern Conference, the biggest change this season is Dwight Howard's journey to the west, and Derrick Rose's absence due to injury, and after Derrick Rose missed the All-Star vote, Rajon Rondo, who was elected as an All-Star starter for the first time in his career, was also unable to attend this season's All-Star game due to injury, and finally Chris Bosh replaced Rajon Rondo's starting position, and LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Kevin Garnett, Carmelo Anthony was co-named as the Eastern Conference All-Star starter this season.

Judging from the starting lineups of both sides, the Western All-Stars undoubtedly have an advantage, Kevin Garnett's performance continues to decline this season, if it weren't for the league's cancellation of the vote for the center position, and Dwight Howard Traveling West to the Lakers, with Garnett's data and performance this season, it is difficult to be selected as an All-Star, and the backcourt composed of Dwyane Wade and Carmelo Anthony is also difficult to take advantage of Kobe and Paul, among the five starters in the East, There are at least three positions that are underdogs against the Western Conference All-Stars.

Unlike LeBron James VS Kevin Durant during last season's All-Star season, this season's All-Star Game, everyone's focus is undoubtedly on the Wake Forest duo and the Heat triumvirate, this year's All-Star game is the first time since the Heat triumvirate became a team that the three were selected as starters at the same time.

Because there are no heavyweight stars in the host Rockets, and this year is the year when the Wake Forest duo get together after 12 years, most of the Western All-Star players have reached a tacit understanding and consensus before the start of the All-Star Weekend, just like the All-Star in the 09 season, all the Western All-Star players praised Kobe and O'Neal, not only the beauty of adults made the two of them lift the All-Star MVP trophy together, but also prompted them to stage a beautiful talk of laughter and enmity on the All-Star stage.

Therefore, after the start of the game, on the side of the Western All-Stars, whether it is Kobe, Durant or Paul, they all give Meng Xu and Duncan the ball at every opportunity, and the 6 consecutive offenses after the opening are all completed by Meng Xu and Duncan, especially Chris Paul, the junior brother of Meng Xu and Duncan, is constantly threading the needle and leading the way, and is more positive than his own things.

And the Eastern All-Stars, who are basically playing around the Big Three of the Heat, and Kevin Garnett, who is still injured, can paddle on the court, anyway, the Eastern All-Stars don't need him to score, and the current playoff situation of the Celtics is not very clear, after the All-Star Weekend, Garnett has to go back and take the Celtics to fight hard for a playoff spot, so Garnett can also save a little physical strength now.

In the first three quarters of the game, whether it was the Western All-Star or the Eastern All-Star, they all played relatively easily, with all kinds of showmanlike dunks flying all over the sky, the back and forth between the two sides, the connection between LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul's coquettish passes, and wonderful empty dunks were constantly staged.

Before the starters of both sides came on the court, the Western All-Stars fell behind by 3 points at 118-121, and after the starters on both sides came on the court, Meng Xu first shot a three-pointer to equalize the score, and then assisted Duncan to shoot and hit to help the Western All-Stars overtake the score, after the score overtook the score, the two sides began to enter the tug-of-war stage, you score a goal, I also score a goal game scene, It lasted until less than 2 minutes left in the game, Chris Paul made two consecutive breaks, and the Western All-Stars completely opened the score with two counterattacks, and the helpless Eastern All-Stars could only start to execute foul tactics, and finally after Paul George and Carmelo Anthony missed three-point shots, the Western All-Stars won 146-139.

Meng Xu had 29 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists in the game, and Tim Duncan had 22 points and 17 rebounds.

"Congratulations, Meng, congratulations, Tim, congratulations on being elected as the star of the stars tonight!" After the results of the selection were announced, NBA league president David Stern took out an All-Star MVP trophy prepared in advance with the names of Meng Xu and Duncan engraved on it, and handed it to Meng Xu and Duncan.

Without too many words, Meng Xu and Duncan just looked at each other and smiled, and then jointly lifted this special All-Star MVP trophy, and this moment will also become an eternal classic picture on the NBA All-Star Game!
