A few hours later, the floor of MGM Arena was set up and fans began to enter.
As the regular season draws to a close, the enthusiasm of Las Vegas fans remains unaffected.
The fans quickly filled the originally empty and silent arena, and the sound waves assaulted the players' eardrums.
The rosters of Glory and Suns were both complete, with no major injuries to the main players, indicating a major battle tonight.
Jordan and Gan Guoyang naturally started, and Yao Ming received the most camera attention on site as everyone knew tonight was crucial for his quest for Rookie of the Year.
On the other side, Stoudemire started as the center, with power forward Antoine Walker, small forward Grant Hill, shooting guard Joe Johnson, and point guard Tony Parker.
This was a highly agile and aggressive lineup, with the Suns' offense ranking among the top in the league.
However, their defense was rather poor, as Stoudemire's defense under the basket was far from ideal.
