On Feb. 7, the 1998 All-Star Weekend continued at Madison Garden, and the first individual event of the day was the "Three-Point Contest."

Due to Jordan's passive participation this year, the league did not care about the face of the former gang leader at all, and sent invitations to players with a three-point shooting rate of more than 40% in the league early, and it was in order from high to low, for fear that the old gang leader would not be able to show his foreign appearance.

Reggie Miller was the first to sign up, and before the invitation from the league was sent to him at that time, Miller had already petitioned in front of the media several times, which should have been the time he had been looking forward to in the face.

Not to mention, there are 18 players in the NBA who have a three-point shooting rate of more than 40% this season, even Jordan has a three-point shooting rate of 39%, and has reached a shooting rate of more than 40% for a long time, and Miller's three-point efficiency is not even in the top five, so he doesn't take the initiative to apply, considering his previous poor record, the league may not really send him an invitation.

In the end, the six players who participated in the "Three-Point Contest" this year were: Darle Ellis (46.4%), Glenn Rice (43.3%), Wesley Persson (43.0%), Reggie Miller (42.9%), Steve Nash (42.5%), and Michael Jordan (39.4%).

Zhang Qi finally came to the scene to watch the game today, with a white suit and a red scarf, basically no one can steal the spotlight compared to him.

O'Neill said: "He still imitates me! People take DV, he also takes DV, and there is no creativity at all. ”

Zhang Yu is dangling on the sidelines with a DV in his hand like O'Neal today, and he also bought 20,000 US dollars before the game to bet that Jordan can win, and I don't know if he deliberately disgusts the other party, these six people are Jordan's three-point shots, and considering his previous magical record, most fans feel that the probability of Jordan winning is really slim, and it is almost the same whether he can break his own record.

Koala baby said: This is a bit dark, Jordan's three-point shot has been improving in recent years, and it has been strengthened last summer after a summer, and now it is very stable, and after the baptism of actual combat, this skill is not a useless chicken rib for Jordan, and now Jordan can really use his three-point shot to death.

Before the start of the game, when the on-site commentator introduced the participating players, Zhang Yu also glanced at Nash a few times, and felt a little embarrassed in his heart.

Last year, he thought the white Canadian should go home after playing a season, but he never expected that after Kevin Johnson's injury this season, he would become the Suns' starting point guard. Although this guy's confrontation ability is still very urgent, he has a little fame for breaking through with the ball and long-range projection, otherwise the league would not have invited him to participate in the "three-point competition".

"This ...... You won't hit me in the face again, will you? ”

Zhang Wei is very unpleasant every time he sees the rookies of the 96 generation now, because several of these people have slapped him in the face, can it go on like this?

"Of course I'm rooting for Michael, but if I have to buy insurance, I think Steve is likely to be a dark horse. Yes, I've played against him, and his three-point shot has left a deep impression on me, and I think he's going to be an upset. ”

When Zhang Wei was interviewed by reporters before the game, he decisively said that he was optimistic that these two people could win the championship, and as long as everyone followed him to bet, they would definitely not be able to go to the balcony for a while.

Can you tell us why you are bullish on Michael? You know, did he set a record in this competition? ”

This reporter seems to be more scars than Zhang Fu, and he asked so clearly, is this really good?

"In basketball, there are two types of strong players: 'genius' and 'hard work'. If my three-point shooting talent is a genius, then Michael is a hard-working and hard-working type. Remember, 'hard work' can sometimes surpass genius. ”

Zhang Yu didn't believe it when he said this, so he added a "sometimes", which actually means: Only when geniuses don't work hard, stupid birds can surpass geniuses.

"But, I remember you said, 'Talent determines the upper limit, hard work determines the lower limit', if the talent is not enough, will hard work really be useful?"

This reporter really lacked the strength to beat, and actually used Zhang Mao's words to scold him.

Zhang Mao said: It's so naïve, my words are like farting, how can it make you scared?

"That's right, I said 'talent determines the upper limit, and hard work determines the lower limit', but the problem is that the level of effort of the vast majority of people is so low that they can't fight for talent at all. You have vastly underestimated your own talent, and even less have estimated the extent to which successful people work. ”

Zhang Wei felt that he was really a natural liar, and even believed himself a little bit in such a flicker.

The TV camera also gave a close-up of Jobs next to Zhang Qi at the moment. This thing was smiling happily next to him, of course he knew that Zhang Yu was fooling fools, but standing on the elite, he would only find it interesting, because ordinary people were used to fool and use, and he didn't do this kind of thing.

Of course, a few months ago, he sold half of his shares to Zhang Zhu, and it seems to be a very 2B decision at the moment. Fortunately, the effect is also obvious, Apple's stock price has risen to 9 yuan 8 in February, and it is about to break through 10 yuan again, and it is still in the case of new products not being released, which shows that they are looking for the right savior. As for that share, as long as the company can come back to life in the future, it will definitely double the compensation for him, and Zhang Fu's shares will not remain unchanged forever.

Now he attaches great importance to Zhang Fu, since Zhang Qi is optimistic that Jordan and Nash can win the championship, of course he has to believe in the vision and judgment of the first person in this league.

This afternoon, he put $10,000 on each of them, and as long as either of them can win the championship, he can make a lot of money. Well, especially the little-known Nash won, he will have about $60,000 in earnings. This will be followed by a $30,000 gain. It seems that it is safe to make a profit.

First of all, the first to appear was rookie Steve Nash, a white point guard with fast speed and excellent ball control, and also has a top-notch long-range shooting ability, especially the pull-up jump shot is very outstanding......

The narrator in front of the TV has not finished reading the script in his hand, and Nash has already begun to slap his face frantically......

"Damn, you're playing with me, aren't you?"

The camera in Zhang Zhu's hand is already a little unstable, Nash missed all five shots at the first shooting point, is this TM the level of 42.5% three-point shooting?

Kidd pretended to be a master beside him at the moment, and actually said to the koala baby: "It is difficult for a pitcher like Nash to jump too high or prepare a lot of moves to produce good results, and the three-point game is the best for upside down shooting, and Battle may have a good result if he goes." ”

"Fart! So what do you say about my perfect score? Zhang Yu wanted to slap it over, and then complain, "You have a three-point shooting rate of less than 30%, and you dare to speak out in front of me, get out of the way with a mellow one!" But before that thought could be settled, Nash hit him again with a one-of-five shot from the second spot.

Jobs now knows that he has lost half of his small bet, and it took two points to score a goal, which should not be luck, right?

Sure enough, Nash's hand did not improve at all in the third shooting point, and he made one of five shots, which even the Canadian's own mentality collapsed a little, and the whole shooting action and rhythm were out of shape when he finally threw the ball.

Jordan suddenly laughed from a distance, his smile couldn't be suppressed, he knew that his performance this year would not be at the bottom, because this newcomer seemed to be worse than he was back then, it was really a face!

In the fourth shooting point, Nash also did not show the level of slapping in the face, but hitting the last flower ball finally gave him a chance to avoid Jordan's record, as long as the last shooting point can shoot two orange balls, or shoot a flower ball.

Jordan began to curse in his heart, but Nash finally found his groove at the last shooting point, and hit two orange balls in a row as soon as he came up, instantly making Jordan, who had just loosened his ties, be stared at the shame pillar again.

Nash missed his next two orange shots, but made a suit that took his total to eight points.

Jordan was of course extremely disappointed by this, how he wished that someone would sacrifice himself to replace him from the pillar of shame, what a pity!

Nash breathed a sigh of relief, although it was still a shame to be eliminated like this, but it was much better than breaking or tying Jordan's record, and he should not come to this kind of competition in the future.

The second player in the preliminaries was Darle Ellis, who had the highest three-point shooting percentage this year, which of course refers to players who play more than 20 minutes per game and make at least one three-pointer per game.

This is not the first time Dalle Ellis has participated in the "three-point contest", and he is much better than Nash in terms of shooting rhythm alone, and he finished with 19 points, which is a very good result.

The third player was also Glenn Rice, who participated in the "three-point contest" many times, but he was in average form in the game, and only scored 14 points in the end.

The fourth was Wesley Person, a young guard who was also making his debut in the three-point contest, and had a fight with Nash on the first two shooting points, and although the remaining three shooting points improved, the final score was still only 13 points, and he and Nash were almost eliminated.

The fifth player was Reggie Miller, and as long as he could shoot more than 13 points, Persson and Nash would announce GG.

Jordan was angry when he saw Miller, and the bastard took the initiative to ask to participate in the three-point contest, obviously coming at him, and he wanted to see what the bastard could throw.

As one of the most legendary shooters in NBA history, Miller has won numerous honors in three-point shooting, but failed to win even one championship in as many as five three-point contests, and only made it to the finals twice.

Today is the same, the shooting environment of the "three-point contest" is completely different from the shooting environment of the official game, players need to find their own position and shooting rhythm to be able to achieve a more stable performance, but this has to be trained for a period of time.

Zhang Wei was simulating in the virtual space for more than a month, and only then did he have that perfect score performance that even he couldn't cast again.

Of course, it is unlikely that the average star will train specifically for the three-point contest, especially since most stars simply do not have time to prepare for this kind of game.

Reggie Miller didn't have this time, so he hit the street again, basically throwing in a rhythm of throwing two and throwing two, and finally looking at the overall score, he only scored 11 points, and suddenly fell off his glasses again!

Jordan only laughed a few times, and then he couldn't laugh anymore because he was the next player to play.

Miller hit the street, Jordan was of course happy, but as the finale player, the pressure on the old gang leader will only be heavier than others, after all, the myth of this game was created by him and Zhang Yu respectively, how can he not have pressure?

"Don't let me get slapped in the face! Fight for the final and make it to the finals! ”

Zhang Qi actually started to cheer Jordan here, I really don't know what kind of mentality he has.

Of course, he prayed these words in his heart, and when Michael Jordan was the last to play, Zhang Zhu really shouted out: "Come on, your three-point shot is much better than you imagined, believe in yourself!" ”

As soon as Jordan heard this, he was immediately stunned! He didn't believe that Zhang Qian would really encourage him, and don't forget, why did he come to participate in this competition?

"Hmph, cat crying mouse!"

Jordan thinks that this bastard's words must be listened to in reverse, so it should be translated as: "Stupid, you come to the game with such a bad three-point shot, and you must break the record again, proper!" ”

When the helper finished translating this, he accidentally saw Jobs on the side, and immediately became angry, because he thought of his own 30 million...... No, it should be 50 million by now......

“FxxK！” Jordan scolded secretly, but the pressure also became greater, because in his anger, he unconsciously thought of the "slam dunk contest" for a while, and his mentality collapsed directly!

At this time, we should be able to guess the ending, Miller's mentality just now was not like that, Jordan's mentality collapsed, then it must not be like that!

At the first shooting point, Jordan unsurprisingly scored a measly 1 point. , At this time, the gang leader's brain was instantly confused, and then he even forgot how he voted, anyway, he could only hear the sound of Duang striking iron in his ears......

In the end, Jordan finally stopped at his record after a rare "boom", because this last suit ball allowed him to score the 6th point, and he couldn't tie himself a little tighter with his own hands.

The koala baby was covering his eyes in pain at the moment, and he didn't find out when the under-beaten reporter came over again, and directly put the microphone in front of his face, and asked him again in a mocking tone: "Leon, we still clearly remember your prediction before the game, and now Michael and Nash are both out, what do you think?" ”

Zhang Yu was furious, and wanted to stretch out a punch to kill this nasty reporter in front of him - look at your big skin!

But at this moment, facing the audience all over the world, no matter how much he can, he can only hold back his anger, Zhang Yu said slowly: "It seems that you have a lot of opinions about me. However, this failure will not defeat us, let alone make us lose the confidence to continue to work hard. Let me tell you this, hard work may not be able to achieve your dreams, but the fact that you have worked hard is enough to comfort yourself. And no matter what the outcome is, it's definitely not the same to work hard and not to work hard. ”

"Yes, it's different, and this time Michael threw six."

The reporter thought so in his heart, and of course he didn't dare to say it. And regardless of whether Zhang Mao can only talk about it, what he said is indeed full of positive energy, not really nothing. If he asked again, he would probably be beaten.

Zhang Yu is too lazy to watch the next game, it is rare for him to trust Jordan once, and that bullshit Nash, but these two people are all out of the preliminaries, and the mud can't support the wall!

He didn't pay attention when he thought so, and Reggie Miller's face over there was not very good-looking, and the two most famous guys in the "three-point contest" were out together, which really deserved to be called the "star killer" event.

But this also shows Zhang Mao's awesomeness, he is also a star, or a superstar, but he can still become the most dazzling star in the "three-point competition".
