Chapter 346: Three Points to Reign
Orlando is a beautiful city where you won't feel alone. All-Star Weekend has already begun, and after the first day, Orlando has nearly doubled its revenue, and it attracts all the basketball fans around the world.
Huang Xiang won the championship in yesterday's rookie challenge, and although the MVP title may not have much impact on Huang Xiang, it is also Huang Xiang's first honor in the NBA anyway.
Huang Xiang has two events to participate in tonight, the first is the slam dunk contest, and the second, of course, is the three-point contest.
Howard did not participate in this year's slam dunk contest, this guy may think that he is not as strong as Huang Xiang, or rather, he is tired of the competition for the slam dunk contest, after all, for a big man of more than two meters and ten meters, there are so many good dunk ideas.
However, Huang Xiang's opponent should not be underestimated, there are a total of 6 people selected, and his good friend Nate is of course one of them, and the guy who has won the most dunk kings is likely to be a spectator this year.
Cause? It can be seen from the year before last that Nate has exhausted his donkey skills, and winning the dunk king the year before last just gave him a face, and his dunk skills are just that.
Last year, Nate was not invited to participate in the slam dunk contest, and it was very atmospheric, so this year, just in January, Nate appealed to the majority of fans on his Weibo to participate in the slam dunk contest.
Many people still support this guy, so, under the pressure of the fans, this guy does have a little strength, and he has become one of them.
And another noteworthy, of course, is the big man who also likes to dunk, and is also Huang Xiang's sworn enemy, Griffin, who has fought against life and death many times.
As a sophomore rookie, this guy's dunk skills are not gorgeous, but the violence of the beast is still there.
Last year's flying car made him the new slam dunk king, and this year, he is aiming for the defending throne, although Huang Xiang is strong, despite his confidence.
In addition to these two, Huang Xiang really didn't take other opponents to heart, Green, veteran Richardson, and fellow rookie slam dunk maniac Johnson, Huang Xiang is still full of confidence in the championship of the dunk contest.
And in the three-point competition, Huang Xiang has no worries, if he plays normally, this throne must be his own.
You also want to know the reason for this? Come on, Huang Xiang is the only guy who keeps his three-point shooting rate above 55%, and this guy's shooting rate is as high as 58.4%, such a perverted guy, do you still want to easily take the victory from him? Even Pierce couldn't help but shake his head.
Pierce also appeared again in the three-point contest in this world, and in his opinion, he was just trying to challenge himself, and as for this year's three-point title, he will not fight.
At 7:30 p.m., Huang Xiang Carter walked to the Magic stadium with Howard, Garnett, Iverson, and O'Neal.
At eight o'clock, there will be an opening skills competition, which has nothing to do with the Cavaliers, they are waiting for the subsequent three-point contest and the final slam dunk contest, and of course, they will not let go of the star match.
A bunch of movie stars play games, watch, and watch them seriously.
The first to play in the skills competition was Silver Fox Harris, a guy who is no stranger to Chinese fans.
He was once a teammate of the United Arab Emirates, and he was silently pushed into the eyes of Chinese fans, but the super bad record of the Nets team back then made people carefully analyze the boss of the Nets at that time.
Harris was followed by House, the guy who won the three-point shot last year and is also remembered for his existence.
Neither of them made it to the final match, though, as Irving and another rookie knight teamed up to make it to the final of the trick game, and it was clear that the two of this year's rookie leaders would be showcasing their abilities at the All-Star Game.
The 11-year rookie, that is, Huang Xiang's generation, will have a fierce collision with the 03-year rookie in the next few years, and they will lead the young market in the future.
Owen and Knight started the final showdown, Knight came on first, and the dribbling part was quite good, but it took two times to throw the basketball into the net in the link of hitting the ground and penetrating the net, and the subsequent process went smoothly, and it took 31.1 seconds to complete, which is quite good.
"Come on." Thumbs up to Owen beside him, he and Knight, of course, cheered for Owen.
Owen took a deep breath and his body sprang out instantly, and every time the basketball and the ground in his hand came back to his hands, he would go a little faster, and after passing the pedestrian barrier, he pushed the ball out of the ground and passed through the net.
Irving, who took over the staff's basketball, accelerated again, and in the next process, this guy completely exerted all his speed, raised his hand for three points, and hit! Accelerated again to cross the obstacle and finished, in 26.2 seconds, obviously, the victory.
Owen blushed slightly and waved at the fans in the stadium, the king of skill, it's here.
After a simple celebration, it was time for the three-point contest, Huang Xiang, Pierce, Jones, and House 4 people walked to the sidelines to prepare, and the first one to play was House, this guy's three-point king last year, standing here today with the heart of defending the title, Biao.
There are a total of 5 shooting points in the three-point contest, with 1 point for orange and 2 points for flower balls.
House scored all the goals before him, then failed to score twice in a row, and continued to score a few goals, but in the end it still didn't make him very satisfied, 22 points, average.
Jones's second shot, the first three-point shooter in the NCAA last year, and this year's 44.5% three-pointer is also very good.
"Come on, boy, make it to the finals." Huang Xiang looked at Jones jokingly, this guy, how can he be a little nervous.
"This ...... Rest assured. Jones smiled reluctantly, and to be honest, he didn't have much confidence either.
Walking to the sidelines and taking a deep breath, I was really nervous when so many people watched me perform alone.
The first five goals, 4 points, the last 2 points were not scored; followed by 3 points, and scored 3 goals intermittently; 5 points, 3 points, 4 points, a total of 19 points, quite dangerous.
To say that Huang Xiang scored less than 22 points, basically few people believe it, so Jones basically has no chance.
Huang Xiang and Pierce are both good three-point guys, and Pierce also has a good performance in the three-point contest.
Huang Xiang, the third to play, jumped on the spot and waved at Carter and others on the sidelines, and the continuous shots were like killing gods, and every ball fell with the sound of basketball through the net, and in the end, except for the penultimate goal, all the others scored, 29 points, the tough Huang Xiang, so that the last player to play Pierce in addition to a cold sweat.
What the? Pierce looked at Huang Xiang depressedly, this guy didn't give himself a chance at all. came up with such a strong performance, and let no one else perform, this rookie, he was not very cool at first, oops, I really wanted to go up and beat him.
I really didn't have any bottom in my heart when I took the basketball, but I still insisted on going back and forth, and although the final 21 points were very good, the key colored balls really didn't score a few.
Huang Xiang and House entered the decisive battle, House played first, under pressure in his heart, House didn't know what kind of results he could achieve, and in the confrontation with Huang Xiang, he knew the three-point strength of this guy, so if you want to win, you must score more than 28 points to be more confident, and you really don't know the bottom in your heart.
House's three-point shooting is very good, even in the season when the Celtics won the championship and in the final playoffs, he was not rough.
After moving to the Knicks, House played his three-point shot to the limit, and the battles allowed him to show his unparalleled three-point shooting in front of the people of the world, and finally he was valued by the reorganized Heat team and became the big man in the hands of the Big Three.
Walking to the bottom corner, he glanced at Huang Xiang with a smile, and when he started, he threw the basketball out continuously, the first wave, all 6 points, the second wave, 4 points, the third wave, 6 points, then 5 points, the last wave, 5 points, a total of 26 points.
It's not bad, bless yourself, House looked at Huang Xiang's back and said secretly in his heart.
Huang Xiang smiled, such a challenge, very no, in the case of no one to defend, basically no difficulty, all in the middle? Quite possibly.
"Do you know what's going on this year?" Huang Xiang looked at Garnett behind him on the sidelines and said, without waiting for Garnett to speak, Huang Xiang smiled at everyone, twisted his neck, walked to the sideline, took the basketball, and prepared for his offensive journey.
"Roar" Huang Xiang looked up to the sky and roared, his body went down, and when the synthetic whistle sounded, he picked up the basketball and made a three-point shot.
He lowered his body again, quickly touched the side with both hands, grabbed the basketball in his hand by feeling, bounced up, shot, and the basketball fell into the basket again with an arc under the gaze of everyone.
So fast! A few three-point warriors on the sidelines sighed in their hearts, except for Lei Allen himself, many people have put their eyes on Lei Allen, this guy's shooting speed is really the same as that of Lei Allen.
If this guy is loyal to the three points, he will definitely be better than Ray Allen.
Huang Xiang in the court did not stop his performance, the first five balls were all shot, and then the guy slid quickly under his feet, and instantly reached the next shooting position, grabbed the ball, got up, and started his shooting again.
One, two, three......
When there were still 9 seconds left, Huang Xiang stopped his movements, finished throwing, all throwing, this speed is really fast.
Raised his head and looked at the scoreboard, 30, feeling the quiet atmosphere in the venue, Huang Xiang was really a little unaccustomed, he had achieved a full score, hehe, it was worth celebrating.
(depressed...... )
