Giannis Antetokounmpo shone brighter than any other star on Sunday night.
She arrived with the gift and that touch on her features that seemed impossible for her to fail, in the painting, out of it and behind the triple bow.
He finished perfect on 16 shots on the ring, including three triples, by 35 points, on his team’s victory, Team LeBron 170-150 over Team Durant and earning him the most valuable player nomination.
And if you add to that the best shooter in NBA history, Stephen Curry, helped with seven triples, including six in the first half, among his 28 total points.
And Damian Lillard cooperated with 32, including 11 in the final and final period, Team LeBron’s team met expectations when since LeBron James and Kevin Durant chose their players.
Winners don’t even need their captain for more than two quarters. James only played 13 minutes in the first two periods, in which he scored four points and an equal number of assists.
The rest of the game just sat watching his team, which may well be the NBA Ideal to be heights of the season …

The Bucks’ 35-point pivot earned him the individual award at the 70th edition of the NBA All-Star Game.
Those of LeBron James won the first three quarters, including the second, which closed with a 22-2 streak as bursts with the best stars. And they never flipped back, even though the third one got complicated for them.
They reached the last period 146-125, ie only with the need to score 24 points to reach 170 and win, to the exotic equation used by the league in the latest format of the Game of Stars.
Team LeBron dominated in everything, even in assists, with Chris Paul’s 16, who are now the NBA’s new record in such games, after beating Magic Johnson.
For Team Durant, Zion Williamson of the New Orleans Pelicans had to open the game to replace Joel Embiid, who like teammate Ben Simmons, were separated from the game by Covid’s protocols, as in recent days they had contact with a hairdresser who tested positive for Covid.
Before the All-Star Game, this Sunday Domantas Sabonis, won the Skill Challenge and Stephen Curry, of the Golden State Warriors, the Three-Point Competition
So in a tighter way than ever on Sunday, the NBA held its traditional All-Star Game and this Wednesday resumes the regular season with two games, this time 72 games.
