On the second day of the All-Star Games, there are a total of four games to be played. They are "Shooting Stars", "Skills Challenge", "Three-Point Contest" and "Slam Dunk Contest".

And this All-Star Day 2 game also added a new way of confrontation between the east and the west, counting points, and also enhancing the visibility and competitiveness.

The Shooting Star game is a new addition in recent years.

The rules of the Shooting Stars Contest are as follows: four teams participate, each team consists of three players, including one active NBA player, one retired superstar, and one female NBA player. There are a total of 6 shooting points, three people shoot separately, the first person can shoot after the next person shoots, and the winner is determined by a round of games. The six shooting points are: 45 degrees 3 meters on the right side, 45 degrees 3 meters on the left side, three-point shot at the top of the circle, 3-point shot at the right baseline, three-point shot at 45 degrees on the left side and 3 points from a long distance in the midfield. It is usually held on the second day of All-Star Weekend. The tournament was divided into two rounds, with two teams eliminated in the first round, and the BA Shooting Stars began during the 2004 All-Star Weekend.

This year's teams are:

(East) Bosh: Chris Bosh, Dominic Wilkins, Sven Cash (Chicago Sky);

Team Lopez (East): Brook Lopez, Magosi Boggs, Tamika Cakins (Indiana Mania);

(West) Harden: James Harden, Sam Cassel, Tina Thompson (Seattle Storm);

Westbrook (West): Russell Westbrook, Robert Horry, Maya Moore (Minnesota Bobcats).

##毫无疑问, Liu Jie must support the Westbrook team, after all, Wei Shao is his teammate and friend! Also, Maya Moore has come to China to play and is also one of the NBA actresses that Liu Jie is more familiar with. (Hehe, in fact, Superman only knows her...) ）

As for the confrontation between the east and the west, in fact, Liu Jie doesn't know what is going on, after all, this model was launched for the first time, and Liu Jie is a lazy person, so he is too lazy to check~!

Unconsciously, the time came to 7 o'clock in the evening, and the first game, the Shooting Star Competition, was about to start, and the first to appear was the Bosh team. (The order of the teams is not in the original order)

With a whistle, the timer starts to time, and everyone stands at point 1 (45 degrees and 3 meters on the right) and starts shooting.

Bosh made the first shot into the basket, and everyone went straight to the second point. (45 degrees 3 m on the left)

Wilkins' shot went out of the basket, and Cash followed up with a shot that went in.

The third point is a three-point shot at the top of the circle, and Bosh, a big forward and center, although he can shoot, his shooting percentage is really not flattering.

And Wilkins is also old, and the first shot is missed. Cash, an NBA player who followed him, also smashed his shot on the neck of the basket.

After a few rounds of iron, Wilkins finally scored the ball. At this point, 31.6 seconds had passed.

The fourth point, Cash achieved it overnight (isn't that a football term...). ）。

In the fifth point, Bosh's shot went out of the basket, but Wilkins "made up" and the ball went in.

And the last point is the final winning point, a point in the middle line.

In fact, the victory of the shooting star game depends largely on the last point.

No matter how good you were before, you completed 5 points in 30 seconds. The last point can't be thrown, and when it comes to 1 and a half minutes, your score is "unfinished".

And even if you take 1 minute and 20 seconds for the first five points, and you hit the last point with one hit, you will defeat the "unfinished" opponent, even if you are 50 seconds slower for the first five points.

And the Bosh team, apparently, performed average at this point.

In the first round (3 people shoot once at a time, the first round), the best record is rebounding.

It wasn't until the second round that Cash threw the ball in.

At the moment of the goal, the clock was fixed at 58.4 seconds.

The first set of the first round of the preliminaries has a time of 58.4 seconds.

The next group was even worse than the Bosh team. The first five points were completed in 23 seconds, but at the sixth point of the center circle, they couldn't shoot anything, and it wasn't until 1:22 that Lopez's shot stumbled into the basket.

Team Lopez, with a time of 1 minute 25.8 seconds.

The result of the entire East Army, that is, the sum of the two teams, is 2 minutes and 24.2 seconds.

After the two teams in the east have played, the next two teams in the west will be the two teams.

First came Harden, who finished the game in 52.2 seconds.

And the next is the Westbrook team from the Thunder, which is also the team that Liu Jie pays the most attention to.

In the first point, Wei Shao hit a shot, and in the second point, Robert Horry, who is known as "the greatest role player in the NBA", also easily put the basketball into the basket. (That title is taken from Baidu Encyclopedia)

The third point, Maya Moore did not disappoint Liu Jie and entered the net hollowly.

On the fourth point, Willis missed the first shot, but Horry, who was close behind, made a perfect arc and went to the basket.

The fifth point is also two baskets, and Wei Shao has made meritorious contributions.

After five o'clock, the time was just 21.7 seconds. But in the sixth, the Westbrook team faced a small challenge.

But fortunately, after one round, Wei Shao made a second shot and hit the target.

With a crisp sound of "Huh~", the time of the Westbrook team was frozen at 36.8 seconds.

The total time of the Western troops was 1 minute and 29 seconds.

So, in the preliminaries, the West won, and got 20 points. The East and West confronted, and the West temporarily led 20:0.

##歇息了片刻, the final of the "Shooting Stars" kicked off with Team Bosh vs. Team Westbrook. (Take one from the east and one from the west)

Since the Bosh team's performance was worse than that of the Westbrook team, the Bosh team threw first.

"Toot ~"

As the whistle sounded, Bosh threw the ball at point 1 and, as expected, it went in.

Subsequently, the second point scored one goal, the third point scored two goals, the fourth point scored one goal, and the fifth point scored two goals.

After the fifth point was thrown, Liu Jie looked at the timer, 40.4 seconds.

But at the next six points, the Bosh team gave us a glimpse of what it means to be an "iron king".

I just listened to the sound of "oh oh oh" and the ball kept knocking on the hoop. One moment it was on the left, one moment it was the lower edge, and the next it was on the neck of the basket.

Finally, NBA actress Cash threw the ball in, and after glancing at the time, Liu Jie and his friends were stunned.

1 minute 29.7 seconds.

If it is only 0.3 seconds, it will not be counted as a result and will be counted as "incomplete".

The Westbrook team looked at this time with some excitement, and as long as it wasn't unfinished, they could basically win. (Unless it's 1 minute 29.8 seconds and 1 minute 29.9 seconds, who would be so heavy!) ）

But whether it will be unfinished or not, no one can say, sometimes, fate is just like that. (Anti-river crab, just understand it)

A minute later, the Westbrook game began.

Tick ~ tick ~ Time passed minute by minute, but the process of the Westbrook team was not so smooth. It wasn't until 47.6 seconds that Westbrook went into the net with a hollow in the net that the first five points were completed.

The sixth and final point is also a hurdle. Horry's first shot came out of the basket, causing Liu Jie to sigh.

Subsequently, Maya Moore's shot bumped seven or eight times, and finally fell out of the basket, which made Liu Jie's nervous and excited mood even more nervous and excited.

Westbrook's shot was also bounced out of the basket.

Shooting again and again, and missing again and again, Liu Jie couldn't help but sigh whether the goddess of luck was not on Wei Shao's side.

The time has reached 1 minute and 27 seconds, not to mention the players who are shooting on the court, even Liu Jie is impatient.

At this moment, "Huh~".

Maya Moore's shot finally made it to the basket.

Everyone looked to the timer above the rebound, which would be the only factor that would determine the victory.

The moment Westbrook saw there, he said, "! ”

Why let Wei Shao, who has always had a good temper, scold the street, is very simple, because the number displayed on the timer is 1 minute and 29.9 seconds.

That's right, the Westbrook team, in the final, lost to the Bosh team by only 0.2 seconds.

Liu Jie was also disappointed, just a little bit, his friend was able to win the trophy, now it's good, it's cheaper for that "dinosaur". (Because Bosh's neck is like a dinosaur, Liu Jie's nickname, Bosh powder should not be sprayed~)

Seeing Westbrook coming down, Liu Jie hurriedly went up to comfort him.

Fortunately, Wei Shao is an optimist, and after two minutes, he will be fine. But looking at it, it was almost his own trophy, and when he was picked up by Bosh, he still felt a little sour in his heart.

Because in the finals, the Westbrook team in the west lost to the Bosh team in the east, so the confrontation points in the east were added by 10 points, that is, after the shooting star game, the points in the east and west were 20:10, and the west still held a 10-point lead.

Of course, the points of the shooting star account for a small proportion of the whole, because its weight on the second night of the All-Star is only an appetizer.

Therefore, who wins and who loses in the end depends on the following games.

And the competition that follows the Shooting Star game is the skills competition.

Liu Jie also did not participate in this game, so he could still watch from the wall, but he was present in the next two games, the three-point contest and the slam dunk contest.

In the skills competition, there were also no Thunder players, but the Rockets' Jeremy Lin, the 76ers' Holiday , the Pistons' Brandon Knight, the Hawks' Jeff Teague, the Trail Blazers' Lillard and the Spurs' Parker were all selected.

Therefore, the skills competition is equally exciting, of course, Liu Jie is also looking forward to it, but he secretly asked Westbrook, who had just finished the competition: "Hey~ Who is Jeff Teague?" ”

Westbrook: "......"
