Chapter 0358 History First, in the Pocket (First Update!) )
19th.
Staples Center.
There are a lot of celebrities in Hollywood today, Johnny Depp in a cowboy hat, Scarlett Johansson who is dressed more like she is going to the red carpet, Nicholson chatting with her female companion over drinks, and Leonardo DiCaprio who has now become "Old Plum......
Before getting ready to play in the Shooting Star game, Kenny Smith said, "Although I want to say: 'Go home!'" But then I thought about it and it didn't seem very polite. ”
Barkley kicked Kenny Smith, "Get out of here for the Shooting Star Race, I wish you the bottom!" ”
Kenny Smith will play for the Texans tonight in the Shooting Stars game.
The cameraman was not idle, he knew who the protagonist was tonight, so he kept giving close-ups of Lin Yi who was sitting on the sidelines.
This made Lin Yi very annoyed...... It's tiring to have to smile all the time, right?
Lin Yi professional smirk.
Curry, who was sitting next to Lin Yi, asked curiously, "Which team are you more optimistic about winning the championship?" ”
Lin Yi didn't remember the all-star fast-forward project of Shooting Star, so he said casually: "Texans!" ”
As it turned out, Buckley's poisoned milk still had something.
The Texans shot 31.8 seconds in the first round to lead the other three teams into the finals, but in the finals they got stuck in the halftime shooting......
Kenny Smith still wants to win a championship and go back to Barkley, but there is no way, and the more consistent Atlanta team won the championship of the shooting star.
Al Horford, Kirk Miller, and Steve Smith were all very low-key people, and they walked away with a few words of thanks after lifting the trophy.
At this time, the Staples Center didn't know who screamed, and everyone followed suit.
Because the next event is: Skills Competition.
Kenny Smith, who returned to the commentary seat, was still complaining that if it weren't for Barkley's mouth, the championship would have been his.
"Come on, Kenny, let's take a look at the Skills Challenge, Lin is the tallest Skills Challenge competitor in history, and if he wins, it will make history." Barkley said.
Kenny Smith breathed evenly, "That's right, Lin's height is 221 cm, I think many people know that Lin is very well-rounded, but in the Skills Challenge, small players are more advantageous. ”
This year's Skills Challenge is a stage for newcomers.
Lin Yi found that those in the future guard alliance are basically here today.
In addition to himself, the contestants participating in this year's Skills Challenge are: Wei Shao, Curry, Wall, and Rose.
Lin Yi can be said to have subverted people's concept of basketball, speaking of which Lin Yi's figure is closer to the future Porzingis, you must know that Xiaobo, who is nicknamed "Boshen" by fans, will win the championship of the Skills Challenge in the future.
At that time, the skills challenge was divided into large groups and small groups, and the first group was determined before PK.
The interior players in the future will only become more and more comprehensive, and how many guards can Jokic, known as "Mr. Yoo", have one-handed passing skills?
No way, these insiders are forced!
Because if you don't do this, the probability of unemployment will be high.
Porzingis's dribbling is very good-looking, Lin Yi's figure is more symmetrical, and his height of 221 cm can actually have such a perfect figure...... So many times, Durant has been complained about playing ugly, and it is not for nothing that he is complained.
After all, I watched too much Lin Yi, and I really didn't like Durant anymore!
Lin Yi remembered that the champion of this skills challenge competition would have been Curry, and the elementary school students were intent on sniping Lin Yi today, and with the departure of Ellis, Curry's growth rate was also accelerating, and after the host introduced the players, Curry was the first to hold the ball on the court.
The passing and shooting of elementary school students were completed smoothly, and Curry still wanted to dunk with both hands at the final end, but unfortunately he had to put the basket with both hands instead.
Curry's final score was 31.5 seconds, which is quite good, Lin Yi touched his head, "Stephen, I really suggest you stop challenging dunk, delete the word dunk from your mind!" ”
Curry was very uncomfortable, but fortunately he brought Ayesha with him today, so the elementary school students ignored Lin Yi.
The second player in the Skills Challenge was Rose, who was indeed very fast and had no difficulty navigating the obstacles, but when shooting and passing, Rose was embarrassed to get stuck...... There are too many mistakes, and there must be no play.
In the end, Rose clocked 35.7 seconds, and if it weren't for the mistakes, Windy City Rose would have had a terrifying turnaround speed.
The third appearance was also a speed maniac - John Wall, who turned out to be worse than Rose, jamming three times when hitting the ground and hitting the ball in a row, and finally scored only 39.8 seconds.
"The defenders now really have to work on the basics." Kenny Smith complained.
"Haha, Kenny, why don't you go down and show these juniors how to do it? I wonder if your 'old jet' is still running? Barkley complained that Kenny Smith, nicknamed "Jet" when he played, was fast, and his fundamentals were really good among guards, shooting 48 percent from the field in his career.
Kenny Smith didn't bother to bother with Barkley, and at this time, the fourth player also played, and Westbrook was excited tonight because he was named to the Western Conference All-Star bench lineup, and the Skills Challenge was there to play.
Durant on the sidelines also cheered for Wei Shao.
Don't say it, Wei Shao, who traveled lightly, played well, except for shooting twice, all other events were passed once, and the final result was 31.9 seconds!
Curry and Wei Shao can basically compete for the championship, according to the rules, the top two in the skills challenge have a chance to enter the finals, and now the pressure has suddenly come to Lin Yi's side.
Lin Yi, who appeared as the finale of the Skills Challenge, was interviewed before going on the court, Lin Yi didn't say anything cruel, anyway, the Skills Challenge is not only this year, as long as Lin Yi can win this championship before "Boshen", he will maintain the honor of being the tallest Skill Challenge champion for a long time in the future.
Curry and Wei Shao's results are not easy to surpass, Lin Yi's focus is still on how to "get rid of the handsome", didn't Old Man Qiao also participate in the three-point contest and then lose a lot?
To put it bluntly, handsomeness is the most important thing.
Lin Yi has observed the obstacles set up in the Skills Challenge, and he has tried it himself in training, and the advantage of the big man is that he has a big step, but he is slightly weaker than the small man in winding around the obstacles.
Kobe, O'Neal, Duncan, Ginobili and others on the sidelines all stood up to watch, and Beckham, the star of the Galaxy (Major League Soccer), also stood up and looked forward to Lin Yi's performance......
Lin Yi blew on his hands, and then rushed to the basket from the bottom line with the ball.
Elegantly dunk with one hand in three steps!
The Dallas Slam Dunk Contest champion is still visible, and the decibel level of the Staples Center is far greater than before!
After all, Curry and Wall at this time were both young players, Rose's prestige was suppressed, the turtle was still a juvenile turtle, and his popularity could not be compared with Lin Yi.
Lin Yi quickly rushed to the second point after landing, he grabbed the basketball with one hand with his left hand, and then turned around to cross the first obstacle, and then turned around and passed the second obstacle!
Turning around two times in a row, it's so calm and elegant!
Mo Shangren is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world!
Lin Yi found that he was really cheeky, the louder the cheers came, the more he wanted to play, and he passed the ball with both hands and successfully completed the challenge of the first passing point!
"It's so smooth! Watching Lin Yi's dribbling is like listening to a harp, like a heavenly sound! Kenny Smith is full of praise!
The next obstacle point, Lin Yi completed more comfortably, and at the shooting point, he stabilized his rhythm and hit calmly.
At the end of the skills challenge, he also made a gliding slam slam, which attracted applause from the audience!
In the end, Lin Yi's first round score was: 28.7 seconds!
Lin Yi and Curry join hands to advance to the finals!
Wei Shao lost by 0.4 seconds, but the turtle did not regret it, that is, when Wei Shao applauded Lin Yi, Durant's face beside him was like earth......
Staples came to a small ** tonight, and the fans in Los Angeles really saw the shadow of the magic from Lin Yi, Lin Yi walked back to the bench in cheers, and he also high-fived Kobe, O'Neal and others one by one.
Wall is very sensible, and he ran away directly, and the honest Wall will not give Lin Yi a chance to be heartbroken.
Ayesha waved her fist at Lin Yi viciously, as if telling Lin Yi that the champion of the Skills Challenge must be Curry.
Seriously, Lin Yi found that in fact, these small items in the NBA are quite fun, and whether to compete for the championship or not has become the second thing for Lin Yi, anyway, the most important slam dunk contest just needs to suppress Silly Fen.
Lin Yi really didn't believe it, could he still win with the idea of Griffin's flying car?
Griffin also pretended to be mysterious.
Could Lin Yi say: Do I know what you want to deduct?
However, Lin Yi almost had a nosebleed when he hugged the "widow sister", no way, this is really not that Lin Yi wants to take advantage, but occupies the commanding heights, how do you want to look at it......
Well, the widow sister is sticking a nipple patch today, a hateful mosaic.
But Lin Yi is not such an obscene person, hmm, let's take a second look, right?
Getting back to the point, Curry played first in the finals of the Skills Challenge, and the elementary school students made a force in this round, as if in response to Lin Yi, Curry really came to a one-handed slam in the end......
Curry finished in 28.2 seconds!
Ayesha happily stood up and applauded her fiancé on the sidelines, and Curry went out of her way to the back row to high-five her parents.
Well...... Having a daughter-in-law and forgetting your mother is not just in China.
Of course, in fact, the old Curry and his wife don't like the sideline seats very much, so Curry chose some seats in the back row for them.
In the elder Dell's own words, Stephen Curry is the protagonist, they are just the audience, and there is no need to steal the show for their son.
The future ball dad should really learn from Dell, after all, popularity is never gained by hype.
Curry performed as well as Lin Yi remembered, but it made Lin Yi relax his mind, anyway, it was one word: play!
Many fans left the bench, and as a result, the fans in the front row stood together, and the fans in the back row had to stand up even if they didn't want to stand.
Kobe Bryant took the lead in cheering for Lin Yi.
In the cheers, Lin Yi began his SHO_TIME in the finals!
This time, in order to grab time, Lin Yi chose a more efficient layup at the beginning, and his three steps were fast and chic, which looked much more comfortable than the three steps of Brother Alphabet in the future.
Lin Yi did not show off his skills in two consecutive obstacles, but chose a more secure hand-to-hand dribble and a back-dribble.
The two passing points also failed to jam Lin Yi, and they were all smooth once.
With a relaxed mentality, Lin Yi's performance was a little extraordinary, and when he ran to the shooting point, his speed increased a lot.
Hmmm——!
The Staples Center's hoop is indeed its own!
Lin Yi was faster in the next obstacle course, and when he finally rushed to the basket, he not only increased his cadence, but also took bigger steps.
"What a monster this guy is!" O'Neal played guard in high school, and he could see that Lin Yi was really kung fu.
The skills challenge is not only about the basic skills, but also about the psychological quality of a player, Lin Yi is not only handsome, but also has a good rhythm.
Bang Dang——!
As Lin Yi also completed his performance with a violent buckle, the cheers of the entire Staples could no longer be suppressed.
Lin Yi once again refreshed people's understanding of basketball on the night of this "showdown of the century".
"27.4 seconds!"
"Let's congratulate Lin!"
"He became the tallest ever winner in the Skills Challenge!"
