The NBA All-Star Game rarely features any defensive effort Christian Jones Womens Jersey outside of the final few minutes of a close game, but Sunday's contest at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto featured even more offense than usual. The West led most of the way to capture an absurd 196-173 win, but this was one night for which the final score said very little about the quality of play on either side.
Both teams broke the previous single-team scoring record of 163 points (set by the East in 2014 and West as 2015) to shatter the overall scoring record of 321 set just a season ago. All participants scored as much as they could and seemed to have lots of fun in a showcase that only occasionally resembled a regular NBA game.
Naturally, such a high-scoring game featured George Iloka Limited Jersey a number of players with impressive stats. Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook joined St. Louis Hawks legend Bob Pettit (1958 and 1959) as just the second player to capture back-to-back All-Star MVP award with 31 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and five steals. Westbrook looked particularly intent on putting up as many shots as possible (he had a team-high 23 field-goal attempts) and grabbing his second-straight trophy.

However, Indiana Pacers wing Paul George was the high scorer with 41 points (16-of-26 FG), just one point short of the all-time record set by Wilt Chamberlain in 1962. George attempted to get the record a few times in the closing possessions, but Gregg Popovich inserted Draymond Green to lock him down and made sure that Anthony Davis was lying in wait to snuff out any attempts at the rim. He will have to settle for a record nine made three-pointers (on 19 attempts).
