This season's NBA All-Stars will be held in Indiana on February 19, and yesterday the league also announced the first phase of voting, in which James Harden ranked fourth among Western defenders with 430,000 votes, and because the third guard Alexander was as high as 960,000 votes, so Harden lost his starter in the case of missing this All-Star, of course, Harden is just a digression, let's review the NBA All-Star past, and see which stars hold the records here?
Scoring champion: Anthony Davis, 17 New Orleans All-Star, stats: 52 points!
Once the NBA All-Star scoring champion was held by Wilt Chamberlain, in 1962 Chamberlain broke the tournament record with 42 points and 24 rebounds in the St. Louis All-Star Game, and the interesting thing is that in that game, Chamberlain's East still lost 130-150 to the West, and then the 17-year New Orleans All-Star.
With the help of many teammates, the host thick eyebrows Davis shot 39 times to cut 52 points and 10 rebounds, this game Durant 21 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists got a triple-double, Wei Shao 41 points and 7 assists are also very good, and finally the West narrowly defeated the East 192-182, Davis also won the All-Star AMVP trophy as he wished.
The stars of the host country hold the moon
Rebounding king: Bob Petit, St. Louis All-Star '62, stats: 27 rebounds!
As mentioned above, Chamberlain scored 42 points and 24 rebounds in 62 years and still failed to win, the reason is that Bob Pettit on the opposite side dropped 25 points and 27 rebounds, in addition to Pettit, the West Elgin Baylor 32 points, Oscar Robertson 26 points and 13 assists, Bellamy 23 points and 17 rebounds, and the Eastern Chamberlain helped Bob Cousey 11 points and 8 assists, Russell also only had 12 points and 12 rebounds, and it is not surprising that the final Eastern Conference failed miserably.
In addition, Petit had another 28 points and 26 rebounds in the '58 All-Star Game, and then it was Chamberlain's turn to have 23 points and 25 rebounds in '60.
Petit can also play stats similar to Chamberlain's
Assist King: Magic Johnson, '84 Denver All-Star, Stats: 22 Assists!
This was a season before Jordan entered the league, when Moses Malone won the All-Star vote king with 920,000 votes, followed by Magic with 780,000 votes and Dr. J with 770,000 votes, and finally the game started after the Magic frantically scored 15 points, 9 rebounds, 22 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, but in the end, the West still lost to the East 145:154, one of the reasons is that Dantley, who averaged 30.6 points per game in 84 and won the scoring title, only scored 2 points on 1-of-8 shooting in the All-Star, while Dr. J scored 34 points in the East, Assassin Thomas had 21 points and 15 assists, plus the trident of Bird, McHale, and Parish, and the East crushed the opponent as a whole.
Magic AMVP loses to Thomas
Steal King: Rick Barry, '75 Phoenix All-Star, Stats: 8 steals!
At that time, the All-Star ticket king was Bob McAdoo, who had won the scoring title for two consecutive years, although Abdul-Jabbar was known as the first person in the 70s, but he lost to McAdoo, Rick Barry, Dr. J and others in terms of popularity, and Abdul-Jabbar failed to win a vote in the 70s.
In 1975, although Rick Barry scored 22 points, 8 assists and 8 steals, Abdul-Jabbar only scored 7 points and 10 rebounds on 3-of-10 shooting, and finally lost to the East 102-108 in the West, and the All-Star MVP could only be cheaper in the East Walter Frazier.
All-Star on Rick Barry
Cap King: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, '80 Washington All-Star, stats: 6 blocks!
It's a pity that the league didn't start counting blocks until 74, and Chamberlain just retired in 1973, and the ESPN reporter who had a good thing specially reviewed the video of Chamberlain's game in '62, and after removing the interference ball, he came to the conclusion that Chamberlain averaged 11 blocks per game, and if the data is true, then Chamberlain's 61-62 season was a terrible average of 50.4 points, 25.7 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 13 blocks per game.
In 1980, the All-Star team played two overtimes in total, and finally lost to the East 136-144 in the West, so Abdul-Jabbar's 17 points, 16 rebounds, 9 assists and 6 blocks also missed the All-Star MVP.
After the merger of the NBA and the ABA, the All-Star ticket king began to be dominated by this guy
Turnovers: Stockton, '89 Houston All-Star, stats: 12 turnovers!
Stockton averaged 10.5 assists per game in his career and only had 2.8 turnovers, and as a result, he suffered Waterloo on the All-Star in 89, and Stockton contributed a total of 11 points, 17 assists and 12 turnovers in the whole game, but in the end, the West still defeated the East 143-134, the reason is that the West starter Karl Malone scored 28 points on 12-of-17 shooting, while the East starter Moses Malone only scored 9 points on 33% shooting, and then Harden's 12 points, 7 rebounds, 12 assists and 10 turnovers in 17 almost quadruple-doubled.
Three-point king: Stephen Curry, 22-year Cleveland All-Star, stats: 16 three-pointers!
The 2022 All-Star will be held in Cleveland, which is undoubtedly LeBron James's territory, and this tournament also held the NBA's 75th anniversary celebration, so James naturally hopes to lift the AMVP trophy and become the focus of the game, and finally James shot the second-highest 24 times in the game and cut 24 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, but teammate Curry hit 16 three-pointers and scored 50 points in the game, so James can only become a supporting role in this tournament.
This year, the Warriors were all three All-Stars
Free throw king: Chamberlain, St. Louis All-Star '62, stats: 8-of-16 from the free-throw line!
It's a pity that there is no opponent on the All-Star team who uses shark-cutting tactics against O'Neal or Howard, so Chamberlain's 16 free throws in '62 are already the highest All-Star Game record, and with 16 free throws, Chamberlain's 62 All-Star has a total of 42 points and 24 rebounds.
