Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA-Chapter 694 - 239 Ordinary GOAT is still a GOAT!_3

In the NBA, if a player who wins the dunk contest fails to make fans remember his name, it usually means that...

His performance, as well as that of his competitors, was not necessarily uninspired but certainly lacked highlights.

This is an All-Star Weekend destined to leave fans dissatisfied.

Fortunately, on the day of the All-Star Weekend main event, O'Neal, dressed in a grass skirt, successfully saved the day in front of Qin Yue.

In the Western All-Star Team's locker room.

When Qin Yue saw O'Neal crazily swaying in front of him.

Even though Qin Yue would never forgive O'Neal, not even in ten thousand years.

At that moment, Qin Yue was still amused by O'Neal's exaggerated dance moves.

O'Neal, willing to bet and willing to lose, brought a rare highlight to this dull and tedious All-Star Weekend.

And in the All-Star Weekend game that night, James, who noticed Durant's ambition for the All-Star MVP, assisted him throughout the match.

Ultimately, with Durant's 41 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists for the Eastern All-Star Team, they defeated the Western All-Star Team 158 to 151, and Durant was named the All-Star MVP.

During his acceptance speech, the young Durant first thanked the ever-loyal LeBron, in his eyes.

And what about James?

With just one insignificant favor, James successfully turned Durant into his pawn.

Even now, super KD hasn't realized that the humble LeBron has long overshadowed him in personal prestige...

Nominally, Durant is still the star player of the Knicks.

But deep down...

Even on the night of the game, players from both Eastern and Western All-Star Teams could see that Durant was already reduced to being James' second fiddle.

"'KD' is like Brown's little brother; he can't do without Brown,"

After the game, watching Durant follow his elder brother James back to the locker room, Anthony commented sharply.

Hearing this, Qin Yue deliberately asked, "And what about you, 'Melo'? In Miami, who's really the team leader between you and 'D-Wade'?"

Anthony laughed and said, "Don't try to sow discord between me and 'D-Wade.' In Miami, we never care about who should be the team leader."

After pausing, Anthony added, "If you really have to ask who is the true team leader in Miami, I can only tell you, it's definitely Chris Bosh."

Chris Bosh?

That's truly unbelievable.

Though Qin Yue knew that Anthony was cleverly responding to the trap he set.

Given Anthony's personality...

In Qin Yue's view, it was indeed unlikely for him and Wade to fall out over a struggle for team leadership.

And as the All-Star Weekend concluded perfectly...

Qin Yue turned his attention to the upcoming regular season finale.

Publicly, Qin Yue had never shown much concern for the MVP title.

But with the chance for a three-peat MVP right before him, Qin Yue's fighting spirit had already ignited.

Since David Stern needed him to deliver more iconic performances to consider breaking from his long-held MVP award rules...

As the data god of this era, Qin Yue naturally had to figure out how to satisfy the league's president.

After the All-Star Weekend ended,

Return to Oakland with his teammates.

Undoubtedly.

This was definitely one of the most unstoppable arcs of Qin Yue in the eyes of Warriors coach Mike Malone.

Follow me, prosper.

Oppose me, perish.

Malone couldn't imagine what kind of iconic performances Qin Yue, with his eyes always burning like fire, would deliver in the upcoming games.

But he believed...

The Warriors' end to this season, perhaps even fifty or a hundred years later, would be repeatedly recalled by the world.
