On February 19th, the All-Star Weekend continued in Los Angeles, and yesterday's big news could not make too many waves in the celebration of All-Star Weekend, at this time there are too many superstars and stars in other fields in Los Angeles to make trouble, this is obviously not a good time for Wu Huang to make trouble. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Wu Huang himself knows that if he wants to launch a water army to drown Anthony, who is already a little overwhelmed, he must wait until after the All-Star Weekend, when the all-star high tide has passed, and Wu Huang can take advantage of the opportunity to do something when the media can't find explosive news for a while.

The second day of the "All-Star Weekend" is the competition day for individual events and small team events, Wu Huang only participated in the "three-point shooting contest", he felt that this game would not waste too much of his physical strength, forget about the other games, especially the slam dunk contest is not very suitable for him, he will not participate.

Wu Huang has privately tried dunks with his teammates, and if it were those regular dunk moves, his completion and stretch in the air would be even better than Iguodala's, which is the result of his waist and abdominal strength and the strength of his body's core.

But the problem is that his bare foot height is only 191cm, which is definitely not enough to use only regular dunk movements in the slam dunk contest, and at this time height has become a key factor restricting him.

Therefore, if Wu Huang wants to win the championship, he must choose those movements that do not win with bounces, but are extremely difficult, and these movements must have good creativity. But this kind of action must take a long time to practice, and there is a risk of injury if you are not careful, so Wu Huang is unwilling to do this kind of cost-effective thing, and I believe that James is also unwilling to participate in the slam dunk contest because of similar reasons.

Wu Huang didn't come to the scene to watch the game in the afternoon, and Christine also has a villa in Los Angeles, so he ran around and fooled around all afternoon, and he was busy until the evening before coming to the scene, because there would be his game later.

As the saying goes, follow the customs of the locals, and of course Emperor Wu is not exempt from the customs.

This time when he came to Hollywood to participate in the All-Star, Wu Huang encountered a Hollywood-style question as soon as he appeared in the evening: "If a film company wants to make a movie for you in the future, would you be willing?" Who do you want to star? ”

"Of course," Wu Huang happily replied, "I like to watch Leonardo's films, his acting skills are very good, and I am a fan of him, but if I want to make a movie of mine, of course I want to use Chinese actors." ”

In addition to this kind of boring question, Wu Huang naturally has to talk about the slam dunk contest, because he said before the list was announced that if James participated in the slam dunk contest, he would participate in such a thing. At the All-Star Roundtable, Wu Huang revealed for the first time why he had given up on the idea of competing in the first place, and the reason was Blake Griffin.

"This is his home field, he already has home advantage, and from the moment he decided to play, I told myself that I couldn't play," Wu Huang gave himself a good reason, "I know everyone is optimistic about Blake to win the championship, and I think the same as you, he will win the championship." ”

There will be three individual competitions tonight, starting with the Skills Challenge, which will feature Chris Paul, the representative of the Mesozoic generation of point guards, as well as the next generation of point guards Westbrook, Curry, Rose and rookie John Wall.

The first to play was Curry from the Golden State Warriors, who had been dancing beside him with the Bulls mascot before he got on the court, and the whole atmosphere was very relaxed. Curry did well in the first three sessions, but the three-point shot was stuck, which affected his later movements, and he couldn't complete the long-range pass in one shot, and finally he completed the entire challenge in 34.1 seconds.

The second player was Russell Westbrook of the Oklahoma City Thunder, who took two shots to complete the ball, but his usually unreliable three-point shot was very accurate, one and finally he completed the challenge with a very strong dunk in 30 seconds.

The third is rookie John Wall, who was the MVP of yesterday's Rookie Challenge, but today in the Skills Challenge, he missed his first pass, and then made two three-pointers, and three long-range passes, and finally finished with a one-handed dunk in 40.3 seconds.

Wu Huang smiled slightly on the sidelines, yesterday after Wall won the MVP, he was ridiculed by many people, who made his data so much worse than Wu Huang, it is said that the alliance originally intended to make a juxtaposition trick, but then I don't know why, and finally gave up this idea.

In fact, they are right not to do this, Emperor Wu will not share any more honor with others, he would rather give this MVP to Wall, anyway, most people regard him as the uncrowned king. Besides, he doesn't care too much about this honor, the gold content of the MVP of the rookie game is really not high for him now, he attaches more importance to tomorrow's All-Star MVP, and this honor is worth his efforts.

Derrick Rose, who came out in fourth, used two balls on the ground and twice from distance before finishing with a dunk in 35.7 seconds.

This year's four young players were more cautious when changing hands and dribbling over the pole, and their dribbling movements were relatively stiff, which is when the flaws in basic skills can be seen. Last year's Paul, Wu Huang and Nash all looked relaxed when changing hands and dribbling, but this year's four new generation of point guards are not very open in this kind of game that requires delicate operation, obviously worried that moving too fast will lead to mistakes, which is a reflection of the lack of basic skills.

The first four new generation of point guards took a lot of time, and Chris Paul, who came out last, could have taken the lead in one fell swoop, but his condition was not good, and he seemed to have gone too far at will, first in the ground pass link took two shots, three points and even three shots to score, and finally took 41.7 seconds, not even a chance to enter the finals, and the queen bee came to the All-Star to play soy sauce again.

The finals were held between Westbrook and Curry, and Curry was the first to play, and this time he played perfectly, and Curry didn't make a single mistake and took only 28.2 seconds in total.

Curry's result put a lot of pressure on Westbrook, he had to be as good as Curry without mistakes, but he used two times to succeed in the ground pass, knowing that the tide was gone, and finally seeing that there was no hope of winning the championship, Wei Shao showed off his trademark powerful dunk to entertain the audience, but in fact, his dunk action was very stiff and not good-looking.

After the first "Skills Challenge", the next step is the "Three-Point Contest", which has attracted more attention than in previous years due to Wu Huang's participation this year, and whether he can complete the second consecutive championship and what he can achieve to win the championship is a question of interest to many.

This year's All-Star Game three-point contest will feature two Knicks players, Wu Huang and Gallinari. For other competitors, Wu Huang gave praise one by one. When asked by reporters to make a prediction about the outcome of this match, Gallinari smiled and said: "You know! ”

However, the Big Three of the Green Army do not think that Wu Huang can win the championship, because in the NBA history of three-point shooting list, Ray Allen just surpassed Reggie Miller to rank No. 1 not long ago.

In addition to the defending champion Wu Huang, the players participating in the three-point contest are Danilo Gallinari (Knicks), Ray Allen (Celtics), Kevin Durant (Thunder), Dorrell Wright (Warriors), James Jones (Heat), the general rules of the game are that players shoot 5 shots from 5 points outside the three-point line, each shot is worth 1 point, and the last 1 flower ball is counted as 2 points.

Wu Huang was interviewed before the game, and he said that he will not do special practice for this game, which will not help him much, and his training plan is still to shoot 300 three-pointers a day on off-days and 200 a day on game days. Wu Huang smiled: "I shoot three points every day, even when I sleep." ”

Some media reported that Wu Huang's success stemmed from his hard work, but he himself felt that talent was more important, because there were many NBA players like him who trained a lot, but they didn't see anyone who was better at three-point shooting than him.

This season, Wu Huang has made 180 three-pointers, and if he hadn't been suspended for five games halfway, he would probably have made 200+ three-pointers at this moment. At present, his statistic is as much as 38 ahead of the second-ranked Ray Allen, and in terms of three-point shooting percentage, Wu Huang also ranks second among all players who have made more than 100 three-pointers with 43.9%, so it is no problem to say that his three-point shooting is the strongest in the current game.

In comparison, Gallinari's three-point standard is a little worse, he has only made 121 three-pointers this season, and his shooting rate is just over 40%, whether it is the number of shots or the shooting percentage, he is a notch worse than Wu Huang.

Speaking before the game, the Italian said: "Being able to play in the All-Star Game is an honour in itself and shows that you are recognized as one of the best players in the world. Of course, it's even better to be able to participate with your teammates. I'm going to enjoy those moments, especially at the beginning of my career, and I'm going to cherish them. ”

Heat coach Eric Spoelstra is very optimistic about Jones winning the championship. "From what I know about his three-point shooting and shooting style, I think he has a good chance of winning the three-point contest," Spoelstra said.

James also supports his teammates, believing that Jones is the kind of player who is built specifically for three-point contests, and what he does best is to put the basketball in the basket easily when no one is defending, and no one is better suited to this kind of game than him.

The six players in the competition are all good three-pointers in the league, but not all of them are favored and supported by fans, and of these six players, only Durant has shot below the league's average three-point shooting rate this season (36.1%), just 34.7%. Therefore, as soon as the list was announced, it attracted a lot of scolding from the American media.

Fox Sports believes that Bonner of the Spurs and Korver of the Bulls are more qualified to be elected, and in addition, the Nuggets' Afralo, and the league's first-line point guards such as Paul and Billups are also more worthy of consideration.

Judging from Las Vegas's odds for this three-point contest, Wu Huang is naturally the most favored, with his odds reaching 2:1 and Ray Allen 3:1. O'Neal said he can't wait to see the competition between the two teammates, "This time, I'm going to enjoy All-Star Weekend, where I'm going to wear a tie and watch them shoot basketballs." ”

The Knicks head coach is confident that the two disciples can reach the finals of the three-point contest together, but he didn't say who would win the championship because he had more important things to think about.

As the head coach of the Eastern Conference All-Star team, D'Antoni said that he has not yet decided whether to let the four Knicks players play together or separately.

Just when the fans were expecting whether Wu Huang would throw another desperate result of 29 points, the lights in the Staples Arena dimmed, indicating that the three-point contest was about to begin, and the host began to introduce the six contestants.

Wu Huang was arranged to be the last to play, as the defending champion, he is indeed the most optimistic person today, especially the pair of shoes printed with two basketball patterns in advance "Three-point Contest Special" second-generation sneakers are specially prepared for Wu Huang to participate in the three-point contest. Although this pair of sneakers is exactly the same as UA. except for the different patterns and styles, this pair of sneakers can be sold for $499, which is more than double the price of the normal style. If Wu Huang wins the championship, then this pair of sneakers will probably be even more valuable.

However, Wu Huang is too lazy to mention the matter of sneakers, UA is still the same after changing the head of the basketball department, and he is completely unable to promote him in Europe, let alone North America, UA's promotion work in these two regions is really not worth mentioning, and he is completely overwhelmed by Adidas and Nike, he really regrets signing such a long contract with UA now, and the contract of more than 100 million now seems to be very worthless.

The first player of the day is the NBA's all-time three-point leader, Ray Allen, who is also the No. 2 seed in the three-point contest according to the bookmaker's predictions. When he was the first to play, Ray Allen showed off his three-pointers, scoring 20 points without shooting them all.

Ray Allen was a solid performer, and although his shooting was a little slow today, he was not at all accurate, and he still scored 20 points despite the failure to complete the last shot on time, which is a good result in the past games.

However, just when everyone thought that this year's competition would be very intense, the players who came out behind were more and more cheating than one by one, and in the end, only Wu Huang and Ray Allen performed normally in the first round, and the remaining players were very amateur, among which Gallinari got the ticket to the final with 12 points, which was unimaginable in the previous competition.

Of course, the reason for the embarrassment of reaching the finals with 12 points is that there was an even more embarrassing scene in the first round, after Jones threw a poor score of 7 points, Durant only scored 6 points, only 1 point higher than the NBA three-point shooting contest all-time low.

The record for the lowest score in the history of the tournament is held by Jordan and Schramf, who scored five points in the semifinals at the 1988 three-point contest for the Mavericks, and in 1990, the Flyers also made a big joke when he also threw five points in the first-round finals.

It's no surprise that there was an extreme aberration, but it was strange that there was also a combination of dysfunction, with Glenn Rice and Drexler scoring 9 and 8 points respectively in the first round of the 1991 Three-Point Contest; In the first round of the 2002 Long Shot Contest, Pierce and Stephen Smith scored eight points each, and in the 2005 Three-Point Contest, Joe Johnson and Radmanovic scored eight and six points, respectively. These performances are tragic of course, but it is worth noting that there are always some of them who have scored more than 8 points.

Now, when two players score under 7 points in the same round, it will be a new record, and this black record was set by Durant and Jones, and even if this record does not happen, this three-point contest is arguably the lowest overall quality in history.

In the final, even the usually cold-blooded Ray Allen was nervous, and his shot was badly off target, and he ended up scoring only 10 points, almost missing out on a double-digit run.

Wu Huang was a little crying and laughing, he generally only scored 18 points in the first round, of course, this was enough to enter the finals smoothly.

But even he didn't expect that after entering the finals, his opponent's performance was even more painful, after Ray Allen threw 10 points from the cheating father, Gallinari was only one point more than Ray Allen, these two almost gave up the championship to Wu Huang, and how bad did he have to perform in the end to lose to two such pig opponents?

Wu Huang had no pressure at all in the final, and easily scored 16 points, thus ending the two opponents.

Wu Huang's results are really not good, so Ray Allen, who lost the three-point contest, is also annoyed, and he admitted after the game that he really wants to win the three-point contest, but he can't do it, which makes him unwilling. "I'm very, very eager to win," Allen said, "and if I can find a stadium tonight, I'd love to do it again." ”

Unlike Ray Allen, who was in a bad mood, Gallinari was in a good mood after the loss, and smiled and told reporters: "Let it pass what is over, I already knew that it was not Hugo's opponent, but this time it was too easy for him to win, I am not at this level in training." ”

Wu Huang held his second three-point contest championship trophy, a little crying and laughing, he also didn't expect it to be so easy, and said in a trance: "We all know that the Knicks always run into trouble when they encounter the Celtics this season. But today, the Knicks' players finally easily defeated the Celtics' players and stood on the top of the world. ”

Fans and the media looked at Ray Allen's unwillingness after the game, and Wu Huang was at a loss after winning the championship, and felt that such a championship was too suspenseful, so much so that after the game, the media said that this year's three-point contest gimmick became "the Knicks beat the Celtics", or "Hugo teaches you how to lie down to win the three-point contest" and so on......
