292: God's Party

The subsequent slam dunk contest was not very exciting. Jazz dragon set Jeremy. Evans is not well-known, Battinger and Derek. Williams' dunk is nothing new. Paul. George's flight over Hibbert was a gimmick, but it wasn't that impressive.

After all, everyone has seen too many things like a small man flying over a big man. Two years ago, "Little Potato" Nate. Robinson also flew over Howard. In addition, last year, the slam dunk contest had Griffin and McGee's "fairy fight", but this year it suddenly dropped a notch, and the fans naturally couldn't lift it.

Overall, the dunk contest went rather dullly. In an interview after the game, someone bluntly said, "Part of the reason for this is that the three-point contest is so exciting." And when there is no bright spot in the slam dunk contest, it is difficult to arouse everyone's cheers. ”

That's right, the dunk contest isn't as exciting as the three-point contest, and this is the first time ever.

From the league's ranking of the competitions, it can be seen which of the three individual events is the most important. The slam dunk contest is the finale every year. But today, Link undoubtedly stole all the limelight.

The slam dunk contest ended with Jeremy. Evans' championship ended, but after the game, people found that they had little memory of Evans' dunk......

So, the most discussed tonight is Link. His miraculous 26 points, 22-of-25 shooting in the second round, and a miraculous record have all made him a lot of attention.

Of course, Link himself was very happy. In addition to winning the three-point title and breaking the three-point contest record, Link triggered his bonus clause. And this time, it triggered the reward terms of both the team and Nike.

This night was really quite satisfying for Link.

Money, popularity, and accolades, Link is like a harvester, always coming home with a full load during All-Star Weekend.

The next night's All-Star Game, Link played as a starter for the first time. Before the game began, Bryant also specially pressed Link's shoulder on the court, signaling him not to be nervous.

Link is playing in the All-Star Game for the first time, sitting in the same locker room with a bunch of bigwigs, and not being nervous is fake. He and little Gasol were like two little children, and they didn't dare to say anything out loud.

But after coming on the court, under Kobe's reassurance and guidance, Link also let go of his hands and feet.

At the All-Star launch ceremony, Link found that when he was introduced, the cheers on the scene were no lower than others, so he also gained great confidence.

So as soon as the game opened, Link received a pass from Kobe Bryant and made an empty dunk. Allowing Kobe, a paranoid man, to pass the ball for him also proves that Link is indeed recognized by everyone.

However, Link is always an all-star rookie, and the opportunity to perform has to be given to the big guys. For example, Kobe Bryant, his matchup with James is still the highlight of this All-Star event. And Kobe Bryant is likely to surpass Jordan in All-Star Game points today, so it is naturally impossible for Link to get too many shots.

After that, there was Paul and Griffin, two guys who brought the Clippers' set to the All-Star Game, and they had all kinds of air catches.

Griffin buckled hard, after all, the starting position should have belonged to him, and this guy also held his breath......

Of course, there were some hiccups in this All-Star Game. In the third quarter of the game, Kobe Bryant was accidentally violated by Wade in a layup, and as a result, the bridge of his nose was directly fractured, and there was a lot of blood at that time. People have said that this may be the first time in the history of the All-Star Game that the two sides have fought for blood.

Kobe Bryant is indeed a little more serious today, and he is a little fierce. Maybe Wade was also a little angry, so he took it seriously...... What two terrible men.

But today, the craziest man is Durant. Even if Kobe Bryant is trying his best to grab points, even if Paul and Griffin are performing their empty dunks. But Durant was stunned in such a situation, and scored 36 points equal to James!

Durant was very eager to score today, and he had a very interesting statistic – he didn't have a single pass to Link.

There's no doubt that Durant has been secretly competing with his forward partner in his heart.

During the interview, the beautiful reporter was snatched away by Link. The three-point contest was broken by Link again, and Durant was naturally not far behind. The feud between the two is still continuing in the All-Star Game.

In the end, Durant won the MVP of this year's All-Star Game with a performance of 36 points, which can be regarded as a boost. When Durant lifted the All-Star Game MVP trophy, he didn't even smile. I don't know if this guy is playing cool, or if he thinks an All-Star MVP is still not enjoyable.

Link didn't have a bad performance today, with 15 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists. There are more assists because he likes to perform with other stars. Especially with Gasol Jr., Link and his teammates had a lot of fun on the court.

Although the protagonist of today is not Link, Link can be regarded as experiencing the fun of the All-Star Game. And playing as an All-Star starter is already an honor.

However, after the game, looking at Durant, who was still not very happy after winning the MVP trophy, Link still had some palpitations.

When I meet Durant in the future, that guy will definitely play harder. Especially in the playoffs, if the Grizzlies meet the Thunder again this year......

Link didn't think about it anymore, Durant's guy was getting more and more difficult. Unless he escalates as soon as possible, Link knows that he will be difficult to compete with.

This is the official end of the 2012 All-Star Weekend. After today, the players will soon be ready for a more intense battle in the second half of the season.

But until then, the players are still enjoying their holidays. Back at the hotel, Link and Gasol Jr. changed their clothes and headed to a nightclub in Orlando.

Don't get me wrong, Link and Gasol Jr. are not old drivers and generally don't go for fun on their own unless someone shouts.

And today, the people who invited them to the party, Link and Gasol Jr., could not refuse.

After all, even superstars such as Wade and James have to sell him face.

※※※

"I never knew Orlando had such a great nightlife." Gasol Jr. looked at the bright streets, and felt a little dazzled.

"As if you've known it since Memphis, we don't even play with our own city, let alone anyone else's." Link was a little nervous, even though it was just an entertaining party, but the thought of who was throwing the party made Link feel incredible.

One day, I will actually have a relationship with him.

When I walked to the door of the nightclub, there were already a lot of luxury cars parked here. Private bodyguards cordoned off the area and kept the reporters out. Looking at this battle, you know that this party is not simple.

Seeing Link and Gasol Jr. approaching, the bodyguards did not nod their heads, but asked them for invitations very politely but seriously. It seems that even if you are an NBA star, you can't get in without an invitation.

"Frank, don't be so rude to my guests! Standing in front of you is this year's new three-point champion, and he also broke the record of the All-Star Three-Point Contest. Believe it or not, he can shoot you to the basket as well. ”

At this moment, a man came out of the nightclub and helped Link and little Gasol out of the siege.

"I'm sorry, sir, but I just wanted to make sure there was order. Come in, then, gentlemen. The bodyguards immediately resigned, and Link and Gasol Jr. became more nervous.

Because just now, the person who helped them out of the siege was the organizer of this party. He chartered the entire nightclub just to give friends and friends of friends a place to party. And all the people who were invited did not dare to lose face, and basically all of them were present.

Looking at the host of the party, Link swallowed.

Michael. Jordan had a cigar in his hand and nodded at Link with a smile.
