Chapter 671
Pejastojakovic, a Serbian native, is the core that the Sacramento Kings have focused on cultivating this season, an authentic big man marksman. When he is in good shape, he can score more than a dozen threes in a single game, and it is very common for him to brush up on a game when he is not in good shape.
Chauncee Billups, Lamar's teammate on the Knicks, a standard big-hearted player, a cold-blooded killer. Playing the role of a rhythm controller in the team, he has averaged 15.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, 7.3 assists and 1.6 steals per game so far this season.
Dek Nowitzki, the heart of the Dallas Mavericks - German tank. He has a soft touch that the average big man does not have, and his career three-point shooting percentage is 37.7%. Although it is not very high, his position is enough to make people have a certain expectation of his future in this competition.
Jason Tree, the former Atlanta Hawks, an excellent three-point shooter, is now a powerful jet for the Dallas Mavericks!
It's just that Terry's recent situation on the team is not very good at the moment, and now there is news that the Mavericks management is constantly eye-to-eyeing with Jason Kidd. If Kidd rejoins the arms of the Dallasians, Terry's future becomes delicate. Although the nature of the three-point shooting contest is stronger, it is at least a good opportunity to show one's ability.
Mike Miller, the sharpshooter of the Memphis Grizzlies, is now the Grizzlies' main scoring point on the outside, and Pau Gasol forms an inside and outside combination.
When it was time for live practice, the rest of the players were all on the court, but Lamar stayed on the sidelines.
"I didn't expect you to come? I thought you'd be away from basketball for at least a long time after you retired!" Standing in front of Lamar was none other than Kittels, who had left the legend behind.
Perhaps influenced by Lamar's little butterfly, Kittels, who was supposed to be messing around in the NBA, finally chose to retire after the end of last season because of injuries.
He has no regrets in his career, winning the All-Star Three-Point Shooting Contest three times. Although such an achievement is not shining, compared with those tragic heroes who have worked hard all their lives and still achieved nothing, he can talk about it.
"I didn't think I would touch basketball again anytime soon, but there was so much uncertainty. The league decided that this time, the three-point shooting contest would be awarded by me, an old fellow. I think it would be good news for you to take the trophy from me, right?"
Kittels said with a playful smile. He has also personally experienced the conflict between Lamar and David Stern and knows a lot about it!
Lamar opened his heart and smiled knowingly, "Of course, that's good news for me, but how can you be so sure I'll be the winner?"
Kittels shrugged his shoulders and said a little lazily, "Is there any doubt about this? Lamar, do a good job! Although I can't become a legend, at least let me witness the moment when a legend is born." ”
"That's because you don't want to be a legend! If you had scored that ball last year, maybe now the league has to change the rules of the game, and being a legend doesn't matter to you, and it's the same for me. ”
Kittels didn't expect Lamar to know so much about himself, nor did he expect Lamar to say such irresponsible words, and his face suddenly changed: "Lamar! Remember, you are different from me." What if I become a legend in an All-Star Weekend three-point shooting contest? I don't end up leaving my beloved basketball court and going back to my normal life as I am now!"
"Maybe you'll be asked by a team to be a guest commentator for a few games, or maybe you'll be like Kenny Anderson and be an unlikable character by attacking a young player who is as talented as you are. But what about you? You have what it takes to perfect your career and become an immortal legend for the entire league, even after a hundred years. When people talk about Lamar again, they still say, 'That guy is the best player in the NBA!' no one can beat him, never will!'"
"Since you have what it takes to do that, why not make your career even more perfect?"
Kittels' words made Lamar completely stunned, when he was still in the Los Angeles Lakers, he was not very familiar with Kittels, and he only began to communicate after meeting in the All-Star Game, but he didn't expect this veteran to have such big expectations for himself.
Seeing that Lamar didn't speak, Kittels became a little anxious and shouted at Lamar: "Lamar! Hear clearly, I'll let you surpass me!
Lamar nodded and stood up, and said solemnly to Kittels, "I will, Kerry! not just over you, I'll surpass everyone! whoever he is?"
Just when Lamar was ready for his first challenge of the day, there was a person who was also silently watching Lamar on the spot.
Lamar and Kanye West's gamble has long been in an uproar, and of course it has not been able to hide from Kim Kardashian, who is in the entertainment industry. Under Kim Kardashian's strong questioning, Kanye West told everything.
When Kim Kardashian found out that Lamar and Kanye West dared to take her as a bet, Kim Kardashian was simply mad. At that time, she wanted to settle accounts with Lamar, but unfortunately before her plan could be put into action, it was organized by Kohler beside her. Under the persuasion of Courtney and Khloe, Kim Kardashian finally chose to settle down.
But after this incident, Kim Kardashian also saw Kanye West completely clearly, and it seems that the fate of the two people also ended because of Lamar's little butterfly.
Completely drew a line with Kanye West, Kim Kardashian did not feel any loss, what made her feel sad was that Lamar did the same to her!
With such doubts, Kim Kardashian secretly traveled to Atlanta with Khloe. Of course, Courtney, as an older sister, also went with her when she learned the news, and she was really afraid that her two sisters would do something irrational.
All the while, Kardashian's family disapproved of Kim and Khloe's breakup with Lamar. usually tries to persuade Kim Kardashian not to give up at home and to win Lamar's forgiveness.
It's just that Kim Kardashian is too strong in her bones, and she doesn't want to admit defeat first even if she knows that her behavior is wrong, so the two of them quarreled, cold, and continued until they broke up.
Well, now, with the appearance of Vanessa and Kanye West's provocation, the relationship between the Kardashians and Lamar has become even weaker. Whatever the reason, Kanye West's reckless behavior yesterday will definitely be linked to Kardashian, which is bound to cause Lamar to have a more bad impression of the Kardashian family.
Kim Kardashian was originally a little moved by Courtney's opinion, and took this opportunity from Kanye to ease up relations with Lamar. Even if you can't make Lamar Kim or Kohler's boyfriend anymore, you can make Lamar not forget the relationship she once had. Then the Kardashian family can also take advantage of Lamar's current popularity to gain a lot of benefits.
For the sake of money, what is there that cannot be put down?
Kim Kardashian originally agreed with this suggestion, but when she thought that Lamar actually put her as a bargaining chip on the table, she couldn't help but feel depressed. If it weren't for the two oil bottles by her side, to be honest, she really wanted to rush to the field and ask Lamar in person if he really loved her in his heart?
Of course, Lamar, who is one of the parties involved, knows nothing about this, because at this time, Lamar's mind is all focused on the game.
According to the league's pre-game evaluation of each player's victory, the first to play was Michael Miller from the Memphis Grizzlies. Although he is the top three-point shooter on the Grizzlies team, he is the least favored by people compared to other players who participated in the three-point shooting contest this time, both in terms of fame and strength.
After the game started, he missed all three of the first three balls, and it was only on the fourth ball that he regained a little bit of crosshair. But when it came to the last heaviest flower ball, he actually threw a three-no-stick, which caused many NBA celebrities on the sidelines to laugh and turn their bowels. One by one, they all lay on the ground, and the so-called image had long been thrown out of the clouds by them.
The first point is only one point, and if Michael Miller can't adjust his form as soon as possible in the next four points, then his All-Star weekend trip may really have to focus on participation.
I don't know if it's because of the lack of strength or because of the nervousness of participating in the All-Star Weekend for the first time, and then in the next game, Michael Miller's performance in the next four points is still not very ideal.
And it seems that he feels that time is running out, he seems a little impatient when dealing with every ball, and when he throws the last flower ball to himself, his preliminaries score is only 11 points, which can basically be said to be out of the final.
Michael Miller also looked dejected when he came off the court, and probably he didn't expect this to be the result. Naturally, he is not satisfied with his results, but if he wants to prove his strength again, he can only wait until next year.
