Chapter 173: History (5/5)

There are four main games on the second day of the All-Star Weekend, namely the shooting star, the skills competition, the three-point competition, and the slam dunk contest.

Of the four competitions, the highlight is the slam dunk contest. However, the other three are also quite interesting.

It can be said that the whole second day of the game is more liked by the fans.

As in previous years, this year's Shooting Star will feature two teams from each of the East and West, and after two rounds of competition, the winner will win $100,000 for a league-designated charity.

Two teams in the East, one is made up of Chris Bosh, Dominic Wilkins, Sven Cash. The second team is Hardaway & Sons and Elena Dale Donn.

Two teams in the West, the first team is Durant, Karl Malone and Squila Diggins. The second team is a combination of Curry father and son and Becky Harmon.

According to the rules, the four participating teams will be eliminated through the first round.

The specific rules are the internal matches of the East and West teams, and the winner will represent the East and West in the finals.

Shooting Star was definitely the most relaxing game of the day, and it can be said to be very entertaining.

For Chu Xuan, what interested him was the four female basketball players, especially Sven Cash and Becky Harmon, nicknamed the female version of James, whose beautiful looks added a lot of glory to the shooting stars.

In the first round, the first team in the east defeated the second team, while the second team in the west took the first team.

As a result, the final was Bosh, Wilkins, and Sven Cash against Curry and Becky Harmon.

This duel made Chu Xuan very interested, and he was very curious about who would be able to win in the end.

In the final, Wilkins hit the first ball from close range, which is the No. 1 point. Then the second point in the middle range was shot by Sven Cash, and at this point, it took the female James four balls to get it, which made people feel once again that she had a terrible shot in the middle range. Then there is the three-point shot, which is the number 3 point. At this point, Bosh hit with two shots. Finally, there was the shooting point in the center circle, where Bosh hit a blow that immediately caused cheers from the audience.

And although Chu Xuan expected it in his heart, when he saw it up close, he also secretly felt the magic of Bosh.

It was the turn of the Western Conference team, Becky Harmon shot the No. 1 point, Dell Curry threw the No. 2 point, and Stephen Curry threw the No. 3 point, and on all three points, all three hit with one hit. At this time, many people felt that the Western Army was going to win today's shooting star. However, what makes people feel helpless is that they suffered a waterloo in the center circle shooting point.

In the end, Bosh, Wilkins and Sven Cash won with 55.9 seconds to complete the shooting star double pile.

……

After the shooting star, it was time for the Skills Challenge.

Watching the Skills Challenge is one of the purposes for Chu Xuan to watch the game today, and the reason is mainly because of Antetokounmpo.

That's right, this year, the rookie brother competed in the Rookie Challenge, which was something to look forward to considering he's nearly seven feet tall.

As the head coach, Chu Xuan wanted to see how Antetokounmpo could perform in the game, and it would be great if he could win the Skills Challenge.

Since coming to the Lakers, Brother Alphabet and Chu Xuan have always been more compatible, and the relationship between the two is quite good.

Brother Alphabet respected Chu Xuan very much, and he was grateful for everything Chu Xuan had done for him.

At this time, Chu Xuan was sitting on the sidelines watching the game, and Brother Alphabet would naturally come to communicate with Chu Xuan.

"Head, I'm ready to take the first place."

Antetokounmpo is confident.

Chu Xuan smiled slightly: "Giannis, if you really get the first place, don't forget to invite me to dinner." You know, I spent a lot of brain cells for your game today. ”

What Chu Xuan was referring to was that after Brother Alphabet participated in the Skills Challenge, he studied the dribbling of the league's top point guards many times, and then gave Brother Alphabet a lot of advice and help in terms of skills and ball focus.

It can be said that these days, Brother Alphabet's ball control skills have improved very quickly under the preparation skills challenge.

Obviously, if Brother Alphabet really won the Skill Challenge, then Chu Xuan would definitely be the hero.

"Head, of course that's fine, just wait for my good news." Brother Alphabet said with a smile.

Chu Xuan nodded and encouraged: "Remember what you need to pay attention to, and then success is not far away." ”

……

The two of them chatted for a while, and the game began.

First up was Brother Alphabet, and the finale was last year's champion Lillard.

Judging by Lillard's expression, it's clear that he's still depressed about yesterday's loss.

Originally, Lillard felt that the MVP of the rookie game was already in his pocket, but to his dismay, this trophy was snatched away by two guys from Kentucky.

This made Lillard very unhappy, and he felt that only other trophies could make up for his regret.

And the Skills Challenge is undoubtedly his chance to comfort himself.

When he came to the court, Lillard was extremely contemptuous, and he thought it was a joke for the big seven-foot man to come to the skills competition.

However, to Lillard's surprise, he had 34.1 seconds.

That's a lot of time for a big man.

However, it is not enough to win the championship.

After Brother Alphabet fired the first shot, the next game became easy.

Lillard, the finalist, struggled with his very good shot at the end, and in the end, he only had 34.9 seconds.

However, these two results are two of the best.

That said, Lillard and Antetokounmpo advanced to the finals.

Entering the finals, Lillard started first, and after the warm-up of the knockout round, Lillard was in much better shape, and finally he completed the challenge in 29.9 seconds.

When looking at the 29.9 seconds, many people feel that Lillard is already sure that he is defending the skills challenge title.

You know, when Lillard won the championship last year, it was only 29.8 seconds.

This time is also quite good in previous years.

However, Brother Alphabet didn't seem to have any pressure, and he seemed very calm.

After seeing Brother Alphabet's calm reaction, Chu Xuan couldn't help but feel that maybe Brother Alphabet could really make history.

Under the attention of the whole world, Brother Alphabet started to dribble.

In the starting stage, Brother Alphabet did a very good job, and in the shooting and passing links, he hit a single hit, which made people feel amazing.

In the end, to the consternation of the fans, he completed the trick challenge in 28.0 seconds and became the first player in history to win the 7-foot challenge.

When he saw Brother Alphabet holding the trophy, Chu Xuan was also quite proud and happy for him, and stood up and applauded him all the time. (To be continued.) )
