The 2002 All-Star Ga concluded with two old-tirs jointly winning the All-Star MVP award.
In the sa week, Arica's Super Bowl also decided its result, with the New England Patriots defeating the St. Louis Rams at the Louisiana Superdo in New Orleans, claiming their first Super Bowl trophy in history.
Tom Brady, the quarterback of the New England Patriots, selected in the 6th round with the 199th pick in the 2000 draft, earned the honor of Super Bowl MVP.
In an interview, this low-draft pick white player boldly expressed his desire to beco the Ah Gan of the football world, aiming to be the greatest in history.
Gan Guoyang has already beco synonymous with the greatest in sports history, undeniably the number one in basketball.
Ever since he achieved the honor of 10 championships, the discussion about the greatest of all ti has lost its aning and heat.
Because his first place is indisputable, others are just competing for second place.
The annoying thing is this guy is still playing, still adding badges to his stats and honor roll.
After the All-Star Ga, Ah Gan had a small outbreak in form.
During the team's Southeast road trip, he perford excellently, leading the team to consecutive victories over the Heat, Magic, Hawks, and Hornets, achieving a four-ga winning streak.
In the four gas, Gan Guoyang averaged 31 points, 13 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 2.5 blocks, showcasing 70% of the peak Ah Gan's style.
Especially Gan Guoyang's three-point shooting, in the four gas, both the number of shots and the shooting percentage reached career highs.
As a trendsetter of three-point shooting in the league, over the past decade, the three-point shot has been a very important weapon in Gan Guoyang's arsenal, but not ranked in the top three.
As he aged, lost weight, weakened in confrontation ability, and favored outside offense, Gan Guoyang's three-pointers have increased.
His three-point attempts went from 2-3 in his rookie season to 4-6 mid-career, and now reaching an average of 8 attempts per ga.
This number of attempts is among the top in the league, and the 46% shooting percentage balances volu and accuracy.
It's worth noting that many of his shots aren't open shots but rather outside shots taken by force when tactics fail, using three-pointers to forcibly end the attack.
Gan Guoyang calculated that a 46% three-point shooting percentage is equivalent to a 70% two-point shooting percentage.
About the sa as his peak, only with much less damage, fewer scoring possessions, stronger explosiveness, and increased instability.
Suitable for achieving miracles in certain gas and knocking out opponents in one go.
Early in the season, Gan Guoyang optimized his play with his training team.
After the All-Star Ga, this optimization started to take effect, and with a wave of good form, the Glory Team temporarily rose to sixth in the Western Conference.
But after returning to Las Vegas, the Glory Team encountered a losing streak due to the instability of their three-point shooting.
If Gan Guoyang hits only 35% in a ga, the Glory Team struggles on the offensive end.
Mathematically, the three-pointer does offer more advantages and efficiency, but must reach a certain volu to cause a qualitative change.
Shooting three to four, five to six more isn't enough in accumulated quantity, having relatively little impact.
The contribution of Gan Guoyang alone is quite limited, as the Glory Team's other players currently have average three-point shooting levels.
Moreover, the overall pace of the league is still relatively slow, and the Glory Team's Princeton System lacks sufficient coordination.
The offensive fluency has not been achieved, and problems such as lack of offensive power, excessive shooting instability brought by the Princeton have been exposed first.
In the past, Gan Guoyang used his strong low-post prowess to compensate for everything, but now he himself is taking more threes, which naturally makes this problem worse.
On February 21, the trade deadline approaches, and Danny Ainge hopes to acquire a player on the trade market with strong offensive power to solve the current firepower shortage problem of the Glory Team.
On February 20, the Glory Team faced the Eastern Conference's second-ranked New Jersey Nets at ho.
The night before the ga, Gan Guoyang invited the Nets' center, his old friend Hakeem Olajuwon, to the MGM Grand Hotel's hot spring room for a soak.
The good thing about the Glory Team's ho is that it's very popular among visiting players is that the hotel is connected to the arena.
The hotel's facilities are fully equipped with food, hot springs, gambling, film, and entertainnt, all-inclusive.
After visiting players check in, they can imdiately go downstairs to the casino for a spin, able to indulge until just before the ga starts the next day, even after the ga, if they don't want to leave, they can continue until early the next morning.
For many players and teams with weak willpower and lacking strict managent, this can be deadly.
So team coaches and managent have been protesting, claiming that the Glory Team's situation is a violation, using such ans to deliberately weaken the opponent's fighting power.
No wonder the Glory Team's ho record is so good, almost comparable to the league's top three teams, while their away gas are just so-so, turns out there's trickery behind it.
But players don't think that way, with each team enjoying coming to Las Vegas for away gas, and Eastern Conference teams only having one chance per season, treasuring it deeply.
Due to faith reasons, Olajuwon doesn't drink, gamble, or ss with other won.
So, Gan Guoyang just invited him for a soak, to catch up and chat.
Since leaving the Heat, Olajuwon has stayed with the New Jersey Nets.
