The title of the skills competition went to Dwyane Wade, who defeated defending champion Stephen Nash to become the trick of the year. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
After a simple award ceremony, the three-point shooting contest began like a flower.
The players participating in this year's three-point contest are... The defending champions are from the Knicks' Quentin Richardson, the Mavericks' Nowitzki and Jason Terry, the Wizards' Arenas, the SuperSonics' Ray Allen and the Pistons' Billups.
Although he didn't have any players he knew well in the three-point shooter, he still watched their shooting postures very carefully, hoping to learn some lessons from them.
In the preliminaries, Arenas was the first to play, and he didn't score a single goal in the first point. But after that, the performance was good, and the last point even hit 5 shots and 5 hits, which can be described as opening low and going high. In the end, he scored 14 points.
Jason Tree scored 13 points and Billups had 12.
The defending champion went to two extremes with Arenas, who had a good start but missed all five shots at the end of the game to score just 12 points.
Ray Allen showed the momentum of a seeded player as soon as he appeared, his failure to be selected for the All-Star Game this year was a blow to him, he wanted to prove his existence with a three-point contest championship, and even he had already written a championship speech in advance, in which he satirized Zhou Zheng and the league.
He scored 19 points.
Nowitzki, who came out on the court, was okay, but the time was up for his last shot and it was supposed to be not scored, but the All-Star Game was just for entertainment and there was no live replay, so the ball still gave 2 points, and he scored 14 points in the end.
After the heats, Ray Allen, Nowitzki and Arenas reached the final.
Arenas did well in the final, and he still had time to adjust when he threw the last color ball, and hit it steadily, scoring 16 points.
But Nowitzki was even more courageous, scoring 13 points after the first three points on 8-of-10 shooting, and 18 points despite a poor performance on the last point and a missed shot on the last color.
Ray Allen, who had the best result in the preliminaries, came out in the finale, and he roared when he came on the field.
He's not under a lot of pressure at the moment and he doesn't think it's hard to score more than 18 points.
However, before he was about to shoot, Zhou Zheng suddenly stood up and shouted: "Ray Allen, come on!" ”
Zhou Zheng had a bad taste and wanted to verify whether his luck was really bad.
Outcome....
Ray Allen had a very good performance in the first four points and ate a duck egg in the last point, and the final total score was only 15 points.
Nowitzki won the three-point contest while lying down.
Ray Allen was so disappointed that his prepared speech could only rot in his throat. In this All-Star Game, he could only leave in a hurry as a passerby.
Although Zhou Zheng did not become a passerby, he was more depressed.
"Looks like my luck was a bit wrong tonight." Zhou Zheng said to Eva Longoria.
Eva clenched her fists and said to Zhou Zheng: "Come on!" I'm willing to give you my luck tonight, and you're going to win the slam dunk contest! ”
Zhou Zheng smiled slightly, although he didn't think that Eva Longoria's luck could be transmitted to him, he still expressed his heartfelt gratitude: "Thank you." ”
With that, he stood up and walked to the court.
He began to do some warm-up movements, Kobe Bryant walked up to him and chatted with him seriously for a while: "The movement must be stretched, your bounce and gliding time in the air are advantages, you must grasp these two points......"
At the same time, Iverson and Iguodala were discussing their next battle plan.
"The lifelong enemy combination of the 96 golden generation... Kobe Bryant started a proxy war with Alan Iverson, Bryant picked Tiger and Iverson picked Little AI. So, Vince, who do you think is more hopeful tonight. Charles Barkley in the T-NT live broadcast room asked Vince Carter, a special guest who had just come on the stage.
"It's a difficult question to answer. All four of them have their own strengths, with Desmond being more experienced, and he is the only one who has ever won a slam dunk title. Iguodala's overall physicality is the best of the four. Nate Robinson's height makes him more impactful, and everyone is always willing to give a higher score for a small man's dunk. As for... Tiger, he can't be ignored at all. Vince Carter's remarks are described in Chinese as a knife cutting tofu on both sides.
But he still praised Zhou Zheng: "His jumping ability is better than everyone imagined, and most importantly... He's so good at staying in the air that I've studied one of his layups...... He was in the air for more than 0.9 seconds, and I can't pinpoint the exact time, but I feel like he's on the same level as Michael in that regard. ”
Vince Carter is the most authoritative representative when it comes to dunking, and since he says so, who can argue with that?
This made the audience in front of the TV look forward to this finale slam dunk contest even more.
"Now, the judging panel for this year's slam dunk contest is taking their seats. Rudy Tomjanovich, who led the Rockets to two championships, former Rockets All-Star Clyde Drexler, legendary centers Moshe Malone, Alvin Hayes, and... Ahem, T-NT's famous commentator Kenny Smith will be the judge of this year's slam dunk contest, and the number plate in their hands determines the ownership of the slam dunk king. ”
Earl Johnson explained in plain language.
"The first player to come on was Desmond Mason, and he said something to Zhou Zheng before he came on the pitch."
"I guess it's provocative. Now the whole world knows that the two of them are going toe-to-toe. Charles Barkley said with some disdain: "To be honest, I don't have the slightest affection for Mason, he's not a strong man, he just knows what to say." And as a black man, I think what he said before was extremely nasty. We always don't allow white people to discriminate against us, but there are people among us who discriminate against others. ”
Charles Barkley brought up the old story, and everyone couldn't help but think of what Mason said before, he laughed at Zhou Zheng for not being able to fly, saying that the sky is the territory of black people.
Masons are indeed annoying.
However, he completed a beautiful aerial crotch change dunk.
His speed in the air is very high, and the hand-to-hand movements are very fluid.
There is also no place to find fault with the posture.
The only deficiency is the dunk, which is a little hasty.
There was a sense of urgency to get things done.
But in all fairness, this starting dunk was spectacular enough. There was a lot of applause and cheers at the scene, and his friends even made exaggerated celebrations on the sidelines.
9 points, 8 points, 8 points, 9 points, 9 points.
In the end, he scored 43 points.
After Desmond Mason completed the action, Zhou Zheng stood up, and he was the second player to dunk.
"Come on!!"
Kobe Bryant shouted, and Chris Paul quietly reached out and high-fived him.
"You don't have to figure out what to do, it's the most important thing to dunk the basketball in." When Desmond passed by Zhou Zheng, he released another taunt: "I don't want to see you become the NBA layup king." ”
He was very proud.
Zhou Zheng ignored it.
He walked beyond the three-point line with the basketball and took a deep breath.
"No matter what, no amount of good luck or bad luck can stop my absolute strength!"
Zhou Zheng gave himself psychological hints with firm words.
He has made up his mind to win the trophy of this slam dunk king and give it to Megan Fox... Even if she can't get to the court, I want her to feel like I'm with him all the time.
And just as he was about to take a step into the restricted area to dunk, a familiar and rapid cry sounded on the sidelines: "Tigerr, come on!! ”
Zhou Zheng turned his head sideways.
Then, he showed the most comfortable smile of all time.
