And the shared MVP thing wasn't a first for the All-Star Game.

If you counted carefully, this should be the fifth time.

This situation had occurred four times before.

In 1959, Elgin Baylor and Bob Pettit each scored 24 points, 11 rebounds and 25 points, 16 rebounds, and 5 assists respectively.

The two had very similar stats. Baylor was more efficient with 10 of 20 shots made, while Pettit's stats were more all-around. It was difficult to tell who was better, and the NBA's first shared MVP was born.

In 1993, Malone scored a game-high 28 points and 10 rebounds, and his teammate Stockton had 9 points, 6 rebounds, and 15 assists.

The situation was very similar to tonight. The two teamed up to help the Western team win the game, and because they were teammates, the second shared MVP came into being.

In 2000, Duncan had 24 points, 14 rebounds, and 4 assists, and O'Neal had 22 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 blocks.

This year's situation was similar to 1959, and the third shared MVP was born as a result.

The most recent and last shared MVP before this happened in 2009.

O'Neal's career was coming to an end, and he was selected as an All-Star as a substitute for the Suns.

In that All-Star Game, Kobe scored a game-high 27 points, and O'Neal played 11 minutes and had 17 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists.

The two had previously achieved a three-peat dynasty with the Lakers. They were former teammates, and with O'Neal's efficient performance, the league ultimately decided to let them share the MVP.

It is worth mentioning that O'Neal also became the only player in NBA history to share the All-Star Game MVP with others twice.

Taking history as a mirror, shared MVPs are likely to occur whenever the data is close or there are certain emotional factors involved.

This year's is because the data is close.

Although a bit unexpected, both Tang Tian and Westbrook walked onto the court with smiles.

This result wasn't bad.

Sharing an MVP is the same as having it alone. It doesn't become only half just because two people receive it.

On the contrary, it is a win-win situation.

Westbrook won the MVP honor for the first time in his career, while Tang Tian retained the MVP.

During the award ceremony, Westbrook stood on tiptoe and put his arm around Tang Tian's back, his face full of smiles.

The two looked intimate and matched each other perfectly.

Durant's face was already turning green. He felt like his girlfriend had been snatched away.

After the award ceremony, the two gave their acceptance speeches.

"I have to thank all my teammates. They passed me a lot of balls, and it was the effort of all of us that won the game. This honor should belong to everyone on the Western team."

Since Tang Tian got addicted to praising his teammates on the Pelicans, he couldn't change this habit when he got to the All-Star Game.

"You can only feel Tang's ability when you are his teammate. He is really great. I feel very proud to be able to share the MVP with him."

Westbrook was also in a particularly good mood.

He failed to win Curry in the Skills Challenge before, but he finally won in the All-Star Game, and he won completely.

Moreover, Tang Tian passed him a lot of balls tonight, so it was completely reasonable for him to praise Tang Tian so much.

There was cheers from the crowd.

Durant's face was unreadable.

At this moment, he felt like not only had his girlfriend been snatched away, but his girlfriend was also praising the other person for being good!

He originally came to the All-Star Game to support Westbrook, but now it seems like he really shouldn't have come!

After the award ceremony, Westbrook invited Tang Tian to go out for cake.

After experiencing these two years of the All-Star Game, he really regarded Tang Tian as a friend.

However, Tang Tian declined this time, not because he saw Durant on the sidelines about to kill him with a knife, but because tonight was Olsen's birthday, and he couldn't leave Olsen hanging because of someone else.

After the All-Star Game ended, Tang Tian took Olsen to Manhattan Harbor.

I remember two years ago, when Tang Tian celebrated Olsen's birthday, it was also at the harbor, but it was in Houston at that time.

This time, they were at the more famous Manhattan Harbor.

The two of them strolled around the harbor. Just as they reached the harbor, all the lights around the harbor went out.

"What happened? Is there a power outage?"

Olsen asked nervously, holding Tang Tian's hand.

"Toot~"

At this moment, there was a sound of a ship's whistle not far away.

Olsen turned her head and saw a light suddenly appearing not far away.

"Happy birthday, Elizabeth."

It was a super yacht tens of meters long. On one side of the yacht, the lights intertwined and converged into these words.

Olsen was stunned.

This scene was far more shocking than it was two years ago.

Moreover, in order to create this atmosphere, Tang Tian tried to find a way to dim all the lights in Manhattan Harbor for a few minutes.

The effort and money spent on this were immeasurable.

She excitedly turned around and kissed Tang Tian.

Tang Tian never forgot to create surprises for her even when he was busy.

The lights on the surrounding streets lit up again, and the yacht slowly approached the shore.

It was at this moment that Olsen noticed something.

She recognized this yacht.

There are many types of yachts: small, medium, luxury, and super. The one in front of her was the super type.

And it was a very famous one.

"Mars Project"

This was the name of this super yacht.

This yacht is 89 meters long and has an enclosed living garden and a helipad.

It was manufactured by Fincantieri, the world's largest cruise ship manufacturer, and costs more than $130 million.

Its weekly rent alone is close to one million US dollars.

Tang Tian really put a lot of thought and money into her birthday this time.

After the cruise ship docked, Olsen saw her parents, grandma, her two older sisters, and some of her friends at the bow of the ship.

Tang Tian spent not only money, but also thought.

Tang Tian and Olsen boarded the yacht, and her relatives and friends came to offer her birthday wishes.

This was a birthday party that she had not been notified of in advance, a super surprise.

At this moment, Olsen felt like she was the happiest woman in the world.

The birthday party went smoothly, and when the time came, Tang Tian prepared a birthday cake for Olsen in the living room.

The lights in the living room were turned off, leaving only the candlelight of the birthday cake flickering.

Everyone sang a birthday song for Olsen, and Olsen blew out the candle on top.

After today, she would also be 26 years old.

After the candles were blown out, Tang Tian gave Olsen her birthday gift.

It was a square box, about the size of a book.

Amidst the curious gazes of everyone around, Olsen opened the box.

Inside was neither a shiny diamond nor any precious jewelry.

Inside were several certificates.

Olsen took out the one on top.

"Certificate of Ship Ownership Registration."

This was the English written on the cover of the certificate.

After opening it, the first page had the name of the ship to which this certificate belonged.

"Mars Project."
