Chapter 134: Tang Tian Again! (5/5! One person, one heart, one world helmsman plus more! )
Billups wasn't very tall, standing in the car with his feet spread apart, bent over and showing only his head and a little shoulder.
But the height of the front lid and roof is not a concept at all.
Although Petrus was much lighter than Griffin, Tang Tian also felt that this dunk was very risky after seeing it.
If you don't do it well, you hit the rebound with your head, or smash the roof of the car, there is a high probability that you will be injured.
And this dunk has no chance of failure, it must be a success.
The fans quickly realised this, and cheered like a tsunami of cheers at the instigation of Barkley and Smith.
If this dunk is scored, it will be difficult for Howard to win unless he jumps to the three-point line for a dunk.
"It's dangerous, isn't it?" Scarlett turned her head to look at Tang Tian at this time, and she found that Tang Tian's brows were slightly furrowed.
Tang Tian didn't speak, his eyes kept staring at the field.
He was hesitating.
The All-Star Game is meant to be entertainment, and Petrus is a little too impulsive, and if he gets injured because of this, it will be detrimental to the second half of the Rockets' schedule.
Eventually, he let out a long breath and didn't move.
He chose to believe in Petrus.
Petrus is not an impulsive player despite his strong style of play, and he is sure to dare to do so.
Amid the cheers of the fans, Petrus stood outside the three-point line.
There was a moment of silence at the scene, and the reporters on the sidelines focused their cameras on Petrus, afraid of missing a single detail.
Petrus lunged up, leaping to his feet when he was more than a meter away from Corolla.
As he leaped, his legs spread apart, like a split in a ballet, and flew over Billups's head.
As he flew by, his hand grabbed the basketball in the back of Billups' head and smashed it straight into the basket.
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound.
It was as if a flame was thrown into the hay in an instant, and the entire New Orleans arena boiled in an instant.
Petrus succeeded!
This can be successful!
"He did it, he really did!" Scarlett was a little overexcited at this time, pulling Tang Tian's arm back and forth, shouting in his ear.
Tang Tian was pulled and swayed from side to side, looking helpless.
It seems that women at home and abroad are the same, and they like to shake people's arms when they are excited.
Petrus hung in a circle on the basket before landing carefully.
His face was extremely excited, perhaps he himself had never expected it to be done so smoothly.
Billups got out of the car at this point, and the two men high-fived each other.
This dunk has become an absolute classic of the dunk contest.
Amid the cheers of the audience, the camera gave Howard to the sidelines.
Now the pressure is all on Warcraft's side.
Howard was under a lot of pressure, but he stuck to his original plan and, with the cooperation of the staff, put a palm-sized basket on the right side of the rebound.
This move immediately attracted a burst of speculation from fans.
Howard also wants to dunk 2 balls at a time, dunk a basketball, and then have a tennis ball by the way?
But soon, the fans realized that they were overthinking, and Howard was just putting the basketball on that little basket.
After getting ready, Howard launched a charge from the right side, jumped up, picked up the ball, and then pulled it to his knee for a big windmill slam dunk.
The moment the ball was dunked, the scene was boiling.
The judges' bench also screamed.
Howard's physicality is undoubtedly on display in this dunk, and a 2.11m center completing a big windmill of this level is definitely a historic performance.
It's just that compared with the previous Petrus, this buckle is a little less deficient.
The fans were voting, and the audience began to interview the judges to hear their opinions.
"Magic" Johnson was the first to be interviewed.
Dwight's performance was incredible, he was probably the best interior player in history with a combination of physicality and jumping ability, and in fact he was perfect enough, but ...... "everything took a turn here," I have to say, Petrus's play tonight was super historic. ”
Malone, Wilkins and Irving almost all expressed similar sentiments.
"I'm rooting for Dwight, he's been incredible." Only fellow center Dawkins expressed his support for Howard.
Back in the middle of the court, the host took the microphone: "Dwight, it seems that the judges don't think you have a good chance of winning, do you want to say something to canvass for yourself?" ”
"Yes, Petrus is incredible, and I wouldn't have a problem if he was a champion."
Warcraft's open-mindedness drew a burst of cheers from the fans at the scene, and Petrus also took the initiative to bump fists with Howard at this time to express his gratitude.
"So Petrus, do you have anything to say for yourself?" The reporter then handed the microphone to Petrus.
"Yes, I have to thank Dwight, although maybe he will be the final champion."
Petrus opened his mouth, and the scene also laughed.
"But I also have to thank the fans, the organizing committee, and the NBA, for the best All-Star Game."
The cheers from the audience were even louder.
Tang Tian also smiled, he didn't see that Petrus's EQ was so high.
"But what I owe most of all my credit is my coach, these ideas are all his suggestions, and I'm lucky to be a part of the Rockets, coach, and you're the only coach in the league."
Tang Tianzheng smiled, but he didn't expect Petrus to talk about him coldly, and it was all big talk.
The footage of the scene was quickly given to him.
Scarlett turned her head to look at Tang Tian in disbelief.
Watching this scene on the big screen, the fans couldn't help but want to shout while cheering.
Why Tang Tian again!
Not to mention this beautiful woman, in yesterday's rookie game and the previous three-point game, Millsap and Novak all praised Tang Tian.
I didn't expect that when it came to the slam dunk contest, I still couldn't escape in the end!
This doesn't give anyone else a way to live!
Tang Tian was also a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Petrus to say this, after all, this was not his idea.
But when the camera came, he also gave a thumbs up to Petrus.
After the on-site vote counting, the staff came to the host's side with a small envelope containing the final result.
The camera from the scene also focused on the center of the court.
Petrus and Howard stood on either side of the host.
"The winner of the 2008 NBA All-Star Slam Dunk Contest was...... Michael Petrus! ”
When the host won the championship at the beginning of the year, there were tsunami-like cheers from the scene.
Although I vaguely guessed, the moment the championship really came out, the fans were still very excited and excited.
Petrus took the trophy and kissed it directly.
For an average role player like him, this trophy means a lot.
