The pressure began to fall on the other three at once.

It was originally 4 into 2, but now it has become 3 into 1!

The live camera was given to the game seat, and even James was a little stressed.

Before the game, I am afraid no one would have imagined that Sun Hao would be the first to enter the finals, and it was two perfect scores.

Anderson, the second dunk tried to hit the side for a dunk, but failed the first time.

And after the defeat, he simply gave up the action.

The fans can feel the pressure.

Anderson switched to a dunk, and he hit the basket head-on, hitting the upper edge of the basket, and then catching the ball with a powerful dunk with both hands.

This is an exact replica of Maddie's slam dunk.

But don't say it, such a straight up and down dunk, combined with his height of 2.08 meters, the visual impact is greater than his previous dunk.

Especially after he dunked, there was a big man who habitually pulled the frame and tightened his legs, which made people feel like a violent aesthetic.

The final results came out, and the judges gave them 46 points!

Sure enough, it turned out that James's strategy was right, the big man had to play the simpler and more visually impactful in order to get a high score.

Anderson shook his head when he saw the score.

A score of 88 is not low, but in this situation this year, the chances of qualifying for the final are very slim.

James, again!

He took a deep breath this time, clenched his hands into empty fists, blew into the left and right sides, and rubbed his hands together.

It's an inherent movement when he's nervous.

Under the nervous mood, he didn't do too much preparation, and rushed directly into it with the ball.

When he reached the free throw line, he took off into the air and pulled the ball all the way back to the point where Kazuwa's body was almost minus 45°.

Here it is, his most classic tomahawk clasp!

"Bang!"

It's a pity that the ball was smashed for the first time.

The scene was in an uproar.

Sun Hao couldn't help but shake his head.

It is said that James is perfect, but in fact, his psychological quality is not strong.

This is vividly reflected in history in the year when the Heat's beating of the Mavericks was reversed.

In fact, it wasn't until the Cavaliers 2.0 period that James' psychological quality became stronger, and that was his true peak.

This buckle seems a bit of a pity.

If this is deducted at one time, the shock level of pulling to a negative angle will most likely allow him to get a full score.

James made a second attempt.

The same action, this time he smashed the ball into the basket.

The scene erupted in cheers.

The judges gave a score of 47 points.

The 97 points in two rounds directly meant that Anderson was eliminated.

Anderson also shook his head slightly in frustration.

He's always been known for his excellent bounce, and he's basically dunked on the offensive end.

In other words, he is a serious general.

But he didn't make it to the finals.

For a role player like him, disappointment is inevitable.

Sun Hao patted him on the shoulder and said some words of encouragement.

No matter how you say it, Anderson is also a player from China's CBA.

Anderson didn't seem to expect Sun Hao to encourage him, and he was surprised and really encouraged.

This small detail of the scene went unnoticed, and after James, Richardson reappeared.

The fans at the scene also burst into cheers of anticipation again.

In the current situation, Richardson must definitely come up with a dunk that is weighty enough to make it to the finals.

Richardson, holding the ball straight behind the rebound, rushed out and then a big windmill dunk.

This ball is not small, and the range of action is large, which is quite a bit of Carter.

If you want Sun Hao to do this, you will definitely have to fry the pot on the spot.

But the problem is that the ball was dunked by Richardson.

In the eyes of fans, Richardson is a little conservative and perfunctory.

The reaction of the fans at the scene was not high, and the judges on the sidelines did not score for the first time, but started a heated discussion first.

In the end, the judges gave an unexpected score.

47 points!

Exactly the same score as James!

This time, the fans at the scene were excited.

At the end of the two deductions, Sun Hao advanced with 100 points, Anderson was eliminated with 88 points, and James and Richardson both scored 97 points.

This means that there will be a preliminaries for extra time!

This is rare in the history of the Slam Dunk Contest.

But the fans are excited.

According to the rules, the winner is directly deducted in overtime.

It's just as exciting as March Madness in the NCAA.

James's nervousness became more obvious, and while sitting on the sidelines waiting, he couldn't help shaking his legs and biting his fingernails.

In extra time, he was still the first to appear.

The fans cheered and encouraged him.

James, this time he stood at a forty-five degree angle.

He threw the ball, then hit the inside line, and after taking the ball in the air, the big windmill dunked!

Coherent!

The scene exploded instantly.

This action is really not easy for a big man of 2.03 meters!

However, the judges only gave a score of 48 points.

On the one hand, as analyzed earlier, the big man's show skills are not so pleasing, although James is not a big man in the real sense, but his body type is obviously different from Maddie's, and there is no such elegance and beauty.

On the other hand, once the winner is decided in overtime, it is unlikely that they will directly give a full score in the first round.

After all, that would be tantamount to announcing Richardson's exit in advance.

Richardson appeared on the second stage, and the scene once again erupted in overwhelming cheers.

Two-time slam dunk king, the reaction of the fans at the scene was his popularity.

His second dunk was disappointing, and now everyone is expecting him to come up with something in overtime.

Richardson is one of those players with a very calm personality, but he also nodded vigorously before going on the court.

It can be seen that he is going to give it his all.

He dribbled forward to get a feel, then took a deep breath and stood outside the three-point line.

It's the same throwing, then rushing to the basket, then taking the ball, reflexively, and changing hands under the crotch!

The first time, failed!

However, although it was not deducted, it had already ignited the emotions of the fans at the scene.

The difficulty of this ball is even higher than that of the crotch of the previous board, and it is much higher!

It's definitely a slam dunk to challenge yourself.

"Come on!"

Sun Hao couldn't help but get up and applaud Richardson.

James on the side: Meow meow?

Richardson's second attempt.

Another throw, another catch, reflexive, crotch change.

"Bang!"

Richardson dunked the ball into the basket!

He, did it!

The scene was instantly fried.

The judges immediately stood up and raised the 10-point board in their hands.

Another "50 points because the full score is only 50 points" dunk.

Stimulated by Sun Hao and James, this two-time dunk king has also successfully crossed his limit!

Although James's expression was a little lost, because this 50 points meant that he missed the final round, he was not wronged by losing to Richardson's dunk.

When the overtime of the preliminaries is over, the final will be announced.

Sun Hao, against Richardson!

At first glance, it looks like a game with no suspense at all, but the fans are looking forward to it.

Because Sun Hao gave them enough surprises and creativity in the preliminaries.

They are really looking forward to what new tricks Sun Hao can play in the finals.

"Come on!"

Before Sun Hao came on the court, James shouted at him.

He had been eliminated, and he seemed to be more relaxed.

Sun Hao smiled and nodded.

James was eliminated, and the 23vs95 matchup once again had an early result.

But!

Sun Hao is now looking forward to that championship.

He didn't think he had this ability before, but now that he has come this far, he must work hard!

What if it does succeed?

Sun Hao didn't dunk in a hurry before going on the court, but put the basketball on the ground, and then stretched out his hand to greet the audience.

Looking at Sun Hao's actions, the cheers of the fans at the scene overshadowed one wave after another.

"I'm really getting more and more fond of this guy."

On the commentary seat, Barkley, who was watching this scene, couldn't help but say fondly.

Compared to James, Sun Hao is not perfect, just like he will go to destroy Ferry after he injured Nowitzki.

James couldn't do that kind of thing.

And Sun Hao did not deliberately maintain his image in front of the media, he was low-key when he should be low-key, and he was unambiguous when he should be ruthless.

He's not a perfect guy, but you have to admit that he's really charismatic.

Like at the moment, it's hard to imagine that this is what an overseas player is doing.

But he did, and the feedback was great.

After doing enough warm-up, Sun Hao is finally about to start.

Before he started, Nash followed suit.

This drew another wave of cheers from the fans.

It seems that the second button before was Sun Hao's buckle that led out Nash.

Just like Gordon LaVine's slam dunk contest of the century in history, the Magic's mascot appeared to amaze everyone and became the focus of fans' attention after that.

Nash took a step to the left inside the free-throw line.

Sun Hao holds the ball outside the three-point line.

For a run-up, he took the ball and rushed inside.

When he reached the free throw line, he threw the ball diagonally toward the middle of the rebound.

It's a slam dunk.

Anderson played the board before, Richardson played the board, and the players who participated in the slam dunk contest tonight can be regarded as playing the board and dunk all over the place.

And what Sun Hao is playing is even more unprecedented.

Because the ball hit the board diagonally, the ball flew straight towards Nash.

Then in everyone's stunned eyes, Nash's header ......

Uh, yes, Nash's header put the ball back in the air!

Sun Hao jumped up in the air to catch the ball, a gliding tomahawk split!

"Bang!"

Once successful, Sun Hao smashed the ball into the basket.

The scene was silent at first, and then there was a tsunami-like shout.

Sun Hao's idea of dunking is amazing! And it's one of a kind!

"My God!"

Kenny Smith was stunned for a moment before he sighed.

"Steve just headed the ball back?"

But Kenny Smith was clearly focused on Nash's header.

It's a basketball game!

"yes, that's a header, I've seen a lot of football games."

Barkley smiled and nodded.

Obviously, Nash's assistance is the more attractive part of the button just now.

But the support is also part of the dunk.

And the visual effect of this whole dunk is really full marks.

The judges were also quick to give their scores.

50 points!

Sun Hao got the third 50 points!

Incredible!

After Sun Hao saw the score, he smiled and high-fived Nash.

He had asked Nash to be his assistant before, and it couldn't have been more sensible.

This time, the pressure is all on Richardson again.

Playing with creativity like Sun Hao, he definitely can't do it.

All he can do now is keep challenging himself.

He took a deep breath before going on the field.

This time he opted to throw the ball.

Tonight's fans are really in for a treat, and playing the board and throwing the ball have become the starting actions for dunking.

After throwing the ball, he accelerated and sprinted inside, took off into the air, grabbed the ball and turned 360°.

"Bang!"

The ball was dunked into the basket by Richardson all at once, and there was a wall-mounted follow-up after he dunked it.

Half an arm into the basket, a classic move created by Carter at the slam dunk contest!

The scene exploded instantly.

Richardson, once again pushing his limits!

Dunks actually depend on the state, especially when challenging difficult dunks.

Richardson's current state seems to have entered another dimension.

Sun Hao's second buckle!

The fans at the scene had unconsciously stood up collectively to cheer and cheer for Sun Hao.

Such a Richardson, even if he summons Carter, may not be able to win.

Sun Hao's ability to play the second buckle now is not abnormal, which already shows that he has strong enough mental ability.

Sun Hao came on the field and also took a deep breath.

Richardson's performance is much better than this year in history.

And the dunk that continuously challenges the limit, you say that Sun Hao has no pressure, which is abnormal.

Nash followed suit.

And this time the ball is with Nash.

Nash was more thorough this time around, bouncing the ball right there.

It's really basketball like football.

After waiting for a few times, after Nash confirmed that Sun Hao was OK, Sun Hao began to attack the inside.

Nash kicks the ball up and then hoists it straight into the air with his heel!

This level of football showed off the faces of the audience.

However, this kind of ball is too difficult, Nash's first hanging is a bit too high, and Sun Hao can't catch the ball.

But the fans were in a good mood.

Sun Hao's second attempt, Nash hoisted the ball just right this time, and Sun Hao turned around and dunked 180° after catching the ball.

"Bang!"

Sun Hao's second attempt dunked the ball in!

The fans at the scene have already started to cheer, and many fans have even started dancing.

Sun Hao shook hands with Nash and hugged him before leaving the court.

The two of them worked together perfectly enough tonight.

The judges' benches on the sidelines also quickly gave scores.

49 points.

Of course, this is not because there are any 9 points, but the result of the judges' discussion.

This point is also the same as the previous preliminaries in overtime, depending on Richardson's second dunk.

Richardson, this time with the ball in the bottom right corner.

He hadn't done much preparation this time, and he could clearly feel that his body was completely open.

Another throw, Richardson rushed into the inside, grabbed the ball and directly a dunk under the crotch to change hands.

"Bang!"

Without any mud and water, the dunk was successful at one time!

The moment the ball was scored, the atmosphere at the scene had exploded.

Sun Hao also shook his head.

This ball is dunked in one go, and the winner has already been decided.

He's done the creative work perfectly, but Richardson was clearly the one who deserved to win tonight.

And so it did.

The judges gave the final score.

50 out of 50!

In other words, Richardson scored a perfect 100 points in the final! One point more than Sun Hao's 99 points!

He became the champion of the 2004 NBA Slam Dunk Contest!

He also became the first player in NBA history to complete three consecutive championships in the slam dunk contest!
