12. Easy shortlisting (ask for collection and recommendation votes)

With a complicated but mainly excited mood, Zhang Hao came to the middle circle.

Listening to the cheers, Zhang Hao slapped the ball, he was not worried about the bad dunk, but he didn't know which dunk to choose to dunk, after all, this was just a selection match.

There are a lot of slam dunks in his mind that those future dunk masters will participate in the slam dunk contest, and he himself is not creative in this regard, but it does not prevent him from having a good memory and watching a lot of balls.

Casually, Zhang Hao decided to come to a direct one, start to accelerate the dribble from the middle circle, increase the speed to the fastest when approaching the three-point line, grab the ball one step outside the three-point line, take two steps in a row, step on the free throw line with his left foot, jump up, float in the air, and gently smash the ball into the basket.

To say that this dunk, regardless of distance or bounce height, is an ordinary light dunk, but this game venue is the game venue of the NBA team, which looks amazing enough, and Zhang Hao's light and freehand feeling seems to be saying - what is the need for this kind of tryout?

It looks really stunning!

All the spectators were cheering! Several players who had a good relationship with Zhang Hao shouted loudly on the sidelines, and after his dunk, Inglewood High School teammates rushed in to give him a high-five, all wearing team jerseys.

There was no suspense, and the three judges immediately raised the sign that passed.

Even Julius Irving was shocked by Zhang Hao's freehand dunk.

Julius Owen said to his old teammates next to him: "Andrew, I didn't expect there to be a surprise, looking at this kid is mediocre, I really can't see that he can dunk so beautifully." ”

Andrew Toney, the 76ers' primary guard in the '80s, competed with the Lakers' Byron Scott for the second pitcher with his single-handed shooting ability, enough to be called the No. 2 or No. 3 pitcher in the mid-'80s.

Andrew Toney nodded in agreement with Julius Irving's words, and responded: "Look at his dunk, obviously didn't take the tryouts to heart, I heard that the dunk called Carter is very powerful, I don't know what their finals will be in two days...... Julius, don't be too casual when you pass it, what if the guy named Carter gives out all 6 passes before you deduct it......"

Julius Owen nodded, I didn't think it was "casual", high school students, they need encouragement, but compared with Zhang Hao's dunk just now, the dunk of the contestants in front of him was given to the two dunks that passed, and Julius Owen also felt a little casual.

The other players were shocked by Zhang Hao's dunk, this girl is really good at dunking! A posture of "I have passed before I have even exerted force".

Something unexpected happens! Even Carter focused his attention on Zhang Hao, who was chatting with the strongest high school student in California.

The current Carter is not the one he will be in the future, the pride is written on his face, he has been promised a full scholarship in North Carolina, he compares himself to the next Jordan, although he met Zhang Hao yesterday, but he didn't pay attention to it at all, I didn't expect this guy to dunk so well.

There is no full ticket after Zhang Hao!

The next 10 players did not get a full vote, but 3 people got two votes and entered the pending zone.

Finally, Carter came in the finale, and obviously, the cameraman's position changed, obviously, this was the order of the producer of McDonald's, Carter's audition dunk was to be used as a promotional video.

Carter couldn't wait, he had just heard someone next to him say "that Chinese kid's dunk is still no one to surpass ......" 10 times in a row, and he was already very unhappy.

Some of the students from Continental High School in Daytona Beach, some of the high school players in Florida are familiar with Carter, and players like Pierce have also heard of Carter, but they have only heard that most of them are very interested in this high school student who has been promoted by McDonald's as a selling point for a while, and want to see how he will deduct it?

Carter broadcast the ball outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the right side, slowly dribbled into the inside, grabbed the ball on the right side of the three-second zone, and then ran a step forward, and then jumped directly, grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand, turned 360 degrees in the air, and smashed the ball into the basket! When the ball was smashed into the basket, Carter jumped to the highest point, and his head was already easily parallel to the basket!

Nearly 2,000 people at the scene exclaimed!

If Zhang Hao's dunk just now is amazing, then Carter's dunk is still shocking when people have paid a high degree of attention!

Even Julius Owen stood up and slapped the table.

Is this a high school slam dunk contest? In Julius Irving's eyes, there are few people in the NBA All-Star Slam Dunk Contest who can dunk better than Carter's dunk!

Fourth unanimous vote!

Carter didn't talk much, and some people questioned why he was so valued by McDonald's, but now everyone understands that people have that strength!

Carter and his high school teammates celebrated and raised their necks at Zhang Hao, the meaning was obvious.

Others Carter can't look down on him, and Zhang Hao, a Chinese teenager who obviously retains his strength, is regarded as an opponent by him.

This made Desmond Mason and Ricky Davis, two players who really wanted to win the championship, very unhappy, and Zhang Hao was also implicated, but Carter, who didn't take them seriously, was the one they were most unhappy with.

……

The selection is over! Zhang Hao, Carter, Dean Grove, Desmond Mason, the four players who passed unanimously advanced to the finals, Ricky Davis, Santa Ana High School's Millers Simon, two players with two votes were finally selected by Julius Irving to the finals.

When it comes to the finals, it is similar to the rules of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest, with five judges, each judge scoring 6-10 points, with a minimum of 30 points and a maximum of 50 points for the total score.

The final is the day after tomorrow, that is, on the evening of the 28th, and will be broadcast live by American cable television stations throughout the United States.

When the host announced the final list, the time, place, rules, and so on, the selection of the slam dunk contest ended.

Zhang Hao and the others did not leave, and stayed at the scene to watch the next all-star tryout.

"Oh, Aix, I know you're a good jumper, but I can't believe you've made it to the finals......" Pierce turned on the chatter mode again.

"yes, Aix, you don't seem to dunk very often in games, why?" I don't know when, April-Clark sat next to Zhang Hao.

Pierce knew the reason for this question of the Latino tennis girl, but he didn't respond, he wasn't afraid of things, it was Zhang Hao who didn't want to cause trouble.

Zhang Hao responded: "I'm afraid that Paul's self-esteem will be hurt, and the height of his jump is too short." ”

Pierce was speechless, but he thought it was weird, and he couldn't use "short" to describe the poor bounce? How do you use "small"?

Probably because this Chinese friend hasn't learned English yet!

"Ax, that guy named Carter is so good at dunking! Do you have the confidence to win him? April-Clark asked.

"I try, I want to beat him, but he's really strong, the best dunk guy I've ever seen." Zhang Hao gave an evaluation from the bottom of his heart.

However, Zhang Hao said that he wanted to defeat Carter, and he also came from the heart.

This time, he realized how eager he was to win!

Even if it was Carter, he wanted to win!

"He's that good?" Pierce said he didn't quite understand the world of the dunk.

"It's really good, it's hard for me to do a dunk like that, and he should be able to do that dunk of mine, although my dunk is not that hard." Zhang Hao analyzed it carefully.

It's not that hard...... Pierce really wants to find a police officer to ask, is it illegal for a high school student to beat up a classmate?

I want to hit him!

The All-Star selection ends after 55 minutes, which is a 20-minute half, no timeout, no dead ball, and a 15-minute halftime.

Not to mention whether anyone watched such a live broadcast of the game, even Zhang Hao, who was watching the game on the spot, found a problem, and it was a little interesting a few minutes before the start, and in the back, it was like 10 people, everyone was 1 to 9, and if he grabbed the rebound, he would not give it to others, and there were even teammates competing with teammates for rebounds.

Finally, until the end of the game, people like Ricky Davis left without giving face, Zhang Hao and Pierce and others stayed until the end, but they really couldn't stand it.

Zhang Hao was mainly chatting with other people in the back, and got to know Millers Simon, the player in the finals, and figured out the careers of the other party's ancestors for three generations, and the other party was just a scheming child...... This guy's dad is actually the management of the Lakers, another form of the second generation of the ball!

However, the NBA does not stipulate that the children of team management or head coaches cannot play in the NBA.

Zhang Hao asked Pierce, Aprile Clark and one of her female classmates, Tyronn Lu, and Muhammad to go to dinner together, just to eat pizza, fried chicken or something, all poor students, not so particular.

Just when Zhang Hao and the others went back to the locker room to change into civilian clothes, they met Carter, who took the initiative to greet them this time.

"Hey, brother, let's go to dinner?" Carter came up directly to ask for dinner, and blacks tend to be more direct.

"So, we're going to dinner, together?" Pierce replied.

"That's great...... Aix, your dunk is cool, I think there will be a good matchup on the 28th. Carter abruptly shifted the subject.

This guy actually came to provoke? Zhang Hao felt a little strange, but it didn't look like it, it seemed that he really thought he was a good opponent, but Carter's arrogant high school student looked like before......

didn't think too much about it, Zhang Hao responded: "I also hope it will be a wonderful duel......"
