Chapter 1114: Riding the Buckle Shark
The finals started immediately, and the two had the same results in the preliminaries, so the order of appearance was the same as in the preliminaries.
Laven deducted first, Tang Tian later.
Raven's expression was still relaxed.
Although Tang Tian's performance tonight far exceeded his expectations, he was still confident.
In the field of dunking, he is the existence of the top of the pyramid.
The sense of anticipation in the eyes of the fans at the scene was also very high.
The dunk in the preliminaries has already whetted their appetite, and the finals will only be more exciting than that.
"I'm wondering if they're going to start dunking from the three-point line."
Barkley also stirred up the emotions of the TV audience in the commentary booth.
The fans on the hotline were also quite lively, and the discussion along the topic began.
The daily comic "Kuroko's Basketball" also appears frequently, in which the "air walk" of the Vulcan ego jumps from the three-point line to dunk.
Soon, however, the chatter stopped, as LaVine was about to open the button.
In the first dunk of the final, he changed the starting position of the dunk again, neither to the side nor the front, but to choose the back of the basket.
And it's a ball throwing action.
In the slam dunk contest, the action of throwing the ball is related to the strength of the throw and the height of the ball after it bounces, and the difficulty is directly raised by one gear.
The ball is thrown and lands one step away from the baseline.
The ball bounced and LaVine ran out.
The ball was thrown a little low, but after LaVine took the ball, he flew into the air and flew to the rebound, which directly covered up this small flaw.
He shoved the ball into his crotch and turned around as well.
"Bang!"
Throw the ball behind the board, turn around 360° and dunk under the crotch!
Slam dunk with the highest degree of difficulty!
The moment the ball was dunked, a large number of fans cheered and stood up.
LaVine's body is light, and such a difficult dunk is dunked, but it still gives people a feeling that they still have some strength left.
And LaVine also had a calm face after the dunk, except for Downs who laughed when he came over to hit him, he didn't show any excitement.
This also made the fans more and more excited.
The wind is light and the clouds are light.
LaVine's dunk is really strong!
This pressure is on Tang Tian's side.
Although Tang Tian buckled both buttons in the preliminaries beautifully, although Tang Tian was very popular, fans were still worried about him.
Strictly speaking, the slam dunk contest is about difficulty and beauty, and LaVine has both.
And the one button just now was much more shocking than Tang Tian's two deductions in the preliminaries.
In contrast, Tang Tian relied on creativity and feelings.
If he wants to beat LaVine in the finals, Tang Tian must come up with a more pressing dunk at the bottom of the box.
Tang Tian got up and attracted everyone's attention.
However, he did not go directly to the court after getting up, but walked to the judges' bench.
The audience looked curious.
By the time O'Neill got up and walked into the arena, the cheers of the crowd could not be stopped.
Obviously, this is for O'Neill to be his assistant!
Speaking of the previous slam dunk contest, Tang Tian also invited O'Neal to be his assistant.
At that time, O'Neal was in the middle of the dunk action.
But this year, O'Neill is alone, and he doesn't know what kind of medicine Tang Tian is selling in this gourd.
After O'Neal and Tang Tian finished communicating, he walked to the front of the basket about a meter away, lowered his head, and held the ball with both hands at the back of his head.
This position and this way of holding the ball have already ignited the emotions of the fans again.
The difficulty of this dunk looks like LaVine's dunk just now, which is Max.
Tang Tian was closer to the audience than LaVine, and at this time, he shook his hand before the dunk to signal the cheers of the fans to be louder.
The cheers at the scene were layered and overwhelming.
Tang Tian rushed in from outside the three-point line.
It soared into the air a meter away from O'Neill.
After getting up, his two feet slowly stepped apart, and the whole person flew sideways over O'Neill's head like a hurdle.
At the highest point, his head was already over the basket.
Leap over O'Neal's over-frame slam dunk!
This action alone is already worth full marks!
But this was not the end, Tang Tian took the ball from the back of O'Neill's head with his left hand while leaping, and then changed hands under his crotch.
As he flew to the basket, he smashed the ball into the basket with his right hand.
"Bang!"
The moment the ball was dunked, the cheers of the fans rose to another decibel.
"50 points! 50 points! ”
The scene even began to call for 50 points.
The difficulty and visual impact of this ball is too great.
Tang Tian is like flying in the air to dunk a dunk!
At this time, Carter "snatched" the 10-point sign from Thompson's hand next door and stood up and held it high.
LaVine and Tang Tian, the difficulty and ornamentation of dunks are higher than the other, which really pushes this dunk contest from classic to epic.
O'Neill laughed after being "buckled", turned around and shook hands with Tang Tian and bumped his shoulder.
The big shark will never be ridden, and Nate Robinson secretly blocked him at the beginning, and he chased him all over the field.
But he was deducted by Tang Tian twice in a row, and he was still happy, he could only say that he was really Tang Blow.
Because O'Neill was the judge, it wasn't until he returned to the jury that the judges gave the final score.
50 points, no suspense.
LaVine and Tang Tian, both of them scored 50 points in the first deduction of the final.
It's really possible that this game will go to overtime!
Lavin's second buckle.
The eyes of the fans at the scene were about to pop out.
The second buckle is even more critical than the first buckle.
LaVine finally felt a little nervous at this point, he took a deep breath, and then walked to the midfield position with the ball.
This position makes the fans' eyes full of anticipation, is it ......
LaVine rushed in, and as he sprinted to the three-point line, he took a big step forward and stepped on the free-throw line.
Sure enough, it was a free-throw line dunk!
The free-throw line will always be the most bottom-of-the-box presence in the slam dunk contest.
Tang Tian also used it last time he participated in the slam dunk contest.
As long as the body stretches out and the dunk is successful, it will definitely be a full dunk.
With Ravin's body, this is also an inevitable event.
That doesn't seem to be the whole story, though.
LaVine didn't pull the ball up directly after flying, but first went down, and then rounded it up.
He's ...... To the free throw line big windmill!
The fans were all stunned, how could this be!
"Bang!"
But it's possible!
LaVine's free throw line windmill is done all at once!
"God!"
Bryn, who has always been calm, unconsciously popped out of his mouth two words.
"It's over, it's really over this time!"
Barkley jumped directly onto the stool and shouted at the camera.
Never before in the history of the NBA has there been a dunk beyond the free-throw line.
But LaVine did it, and he's the best dunk in NBA history without any suspense!
Just like Carter at the beginning, he brought the difficulty and enjoyment of the slam dunk contest to a new dimension!
LaVine will be the champion of this epic slam dunk contest!
