Chapter 463: All-Star Race!
After the NBA officially announced that Carter would be the judge of this year's slam dunk contest, everyone was looking forward to how much Carter would score Xie Chen, the provocateur?
Judging from the last dunk, everyone else, including Jordan, gave a full score, but Carter only gave 9 points, and in Carter's heart, it was also a full score dunk, just because Xie Chen did not fulfill his promise to surpass Carter, so he didn't give a full score, so what about this time? This time, Carter thinks Xie Chen has fulfilled his promise? Has Xie Chen surpassed this former "Canadian Flyer"?
Carter is very entangled, if he gives a full score and becomes the champion of Xie Chen's slam dunk contest, it is an indirect admission that Xie Chen surpassed himself in this slam dunk contest, God, why is God so cruel, why does this All-Star have to be in Toronto?
"He used my dunk moves, and the effect was exactly the same as what I did, or even better......" Vince Carter carefully recalled Xie Chen's previous actions, starting from dribbling outside the three-point line, combining the ball twice, and the rhythm of the air turn, as if he was doing it, how could it be so similar?
Carter loved the dunk so much that he couldn't help but follow his heart.
Then, under everyone's gaze, Carter pulled out a 10-point sign!
"Full marks! Xie Chen got a perfect score of 50 points in the last deduction! He defeated LeBron James by one point and became the champion of this year's slam dunk contest! Xie Chen is the new slam dunk king! He is the first yellow slam dunk king in NBA history! Yu Jia screamed excitedly, almost bursting his throat.
At this moment, all the fans in Asia roared excitedly in front of the TV computer! Who says yellow people can't fly? Xie Chen explained that yellow people can also fly like blacks and whites!
Countless people worship Xie Chen, the title of Xie Chen's dunk king will allow him to win more respect, and this is not an ordinary dunk king, this is defeating the former dunk king Zach LaVine, as well as Wei Shao and James, the two superstars! For more than a decade. Vince Carter's dunk king can compete with Xie Chen!
"Yay! Win! Off the field, Chen Yihan, Zhang Junning, Taylor Swift, and Scarlett Johansson all stood up and applauded excitedly, for the man they all admired!
The whole arena was lively and jubilant, the exciting dunk contest was finally over, and Xie Chen won the championship of the dunk contest, even if there were fans who didn't like Xie Chen. There's no reason to say anything more after seeing one wonderful dunk after another, they're all too satisfied.
"Congratulations, thank you." LeBron James also breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and walked towards Xie Chen as if he was out of the way.
Xie Chen also hurriedly thanked him.
James laughed, "I lost to you again, but this is the last time I lose to you this year." β
Although he lost the slam dunk contest, he made the playoffs. James' Cavaliers will never lose to Xie Chen's Knicks.
Xie Chen smiled and didn't speak. How did James know that Xie Chen's most worried opponent this year was not the Cavaliers at all, but the Chicago Bulls?
Zach LaVerin also stepped forward to congratulate: "Congratulations, man, I was so naΓ―ve, I thought you were at the same level as my dunk, I was so stupid, after you gained weight this summer." The strength is already much stronger than mine, and I should have thought that you didn't use all your strength to dunk. β
Xie Chen also patted Laven: "You prompted me to stand on this stage." I want to thank you too. β
Subsequently, before awarding the trophy to Xie Chen, the black host asked the five judges to comment on the dunks of the four contestants one by one, after all, Jordan will inevitably come once, Dr. J and the three of them are all about the same, Jordan's comments are still quite serious. evaluated the four of them one by one, and the evaluation of Xie Chen was very high, and he also expressed great respect for James.
Then, the black host smiled and asked, "Do you think Tse's dunk tonight surpassed Vince Carter?" β
Jordan laughed twice and glanced at Vince Carter. Carter also shrugged his shoulders, Jordan felt that it would be a good thing for Jordan to think that no one called himself the strongest dunk, otherwise he would be embarrassed tonight.
When it was Carter's turn to be the last, the black host would inevitably ask this question, but Carter's answer was: "Yes, Chris Shea reached my heights and surpassed me, congratulations, Xie, you are the greatest slam dunk genius I have ever seen!" β
The audience burst into thunderous applause again, and Carter actually admitted that Xie Chen had surpassed him! This is really incredible, you must know that Carter has always disdained Xie Chen before, it seems that Xie Chen's last button tonight really shocked him.
Carter said: "I felt a kind of inheritance power in him, and when he made the last dunk just now, I felt that I was suddenly possessed by him when I was young, and that kind of performance, it was so similar to me, I was 100% sure that Xie also imitated me, and I was very happy to have found such a successor before I left the NBA." β
Carter's evaluation of Xie Chen was extremely high, which disappointed many netizens who were waiting to see Xie Chen's good show, and it didn't take long for the golden dunk contest championship trophy to be awarded to Xie Chen, Xie Chen has not accepted this kind of award ceremony for a long time, and the last time he won the award was when he won the FMVP in the finals.
Got the slam dunk contest trophy, Xie Chen was very happy, after all, he was only a sophomore, no matter how good and powerful he was, he was just a rookie who had only entered the NBA for two years, when James participated in the rookie game, the coach couldn't find anyone else when he arranged tactics, and then looked at it, he played with the mascot, no way, he just entered the NBA, and he was always extremely excited about everything, even if Xie Chen had won the regular season MVP and championship before this.
Xie Chen held the trophy high, and after a burst of cheers, Xie Chen delivered an acceptance speech, and there were some things he had to say in front of the world: "First of all, I want to thank my opponents, Zach LaVine, Russell Westbrook, by the way, Russell was forced by me to participate in the slam dunk contest, especially thanks to LeBron James, you didn't need to participate, you have been the strongest in the league for so many years, you have won four regular season MVPs, and you have won two championship trophies, It's a great honor to play against a historical figure like you, and thank you for being willing to participate in the slam dunk contest at the age of 31. You looked like you were 31 10 years ago, but I still have to thank you, LeBron! β
The audience laughed and applauded to pay tribute to LeBron James, it is indeed not easy for James to participate in the slam dunk contest at this age, and his physical condition is completely incomparable to his peak. But he still stood at the last moment, and only lost one point, no one thinks James is a loser, but Xie Chen is stronger.
Then, Xie Chen looked at Vince Carter: "Then, I have to apologize to my favorite dunk genius Vince Carter, before that, I said some big things on the Internet, in fact, I am not better than Carter, and even the first two dunks I am not better than Zach LaVine." Because I knew that if they were to do it, they would be able to do it that way. I hope you don't care about that, enjoy the game, enjoy the fun we bring you, and finally, I wish you all the best of the All-Star Weekend, thank you! β
Xie Chen's words gave many people a standing ovation, after really defeating LaVine James and surpassing Carter. Xie Chen, who has always been high-profile and even has some people in his eyes, has become low-key, those who don't like Xie Chen to talk big. also obviously changed his opinion of Xie Chen.
The finale slam dunk contest is over, and it also announces the end of today's All-Star Game, and the All-Star Weekend is only left on the last day of tomorrow's main game.
The response to Xie Chen's winning the slam dunk contest is quite big, especially in Asia, and major portals are using headlines to spread the news, which is surprising. Xie Chen's most widely circulated button is not the last button, but the second button in cooperation with Scarlett, the number of weibo retweets has exceeded 200,000, and those who don't pay much attention to basketball, especially some girls. I also think this dunk is very beautiful, in their hearts, this is simply the best dunk.
Xie Chen inevitably had to treat him in the evening, but he wanted to celebrate with Scarlett, but unfortunately, Xie Chen invited Scarlett, but Scarlett didn't come, she just said that she would be there during the All-Star Game tomorrow.
By the time of the final day of the All-Star Weekend, the protagonist was no longer Xie Chen, even if Xie Chen was the All-Star ticket king.
Kobe Bryant's influence in the world is very great, he announced his retirement, which means that this Toronto All-Star tour will be the last All-Star of his career, Kobe Bryant is not only a star for many people, but also represents their youth.
When Kobe Bryant has proven himself to be the first person in the league in high school, he will be divided into two factions with his friends, the Purple Lakers and the Green Shirts, and then college until work, thinking of Kobe, reminds me of the green years.
I don't know if there will be the next Kobe, and even if there is, they won't have a second youth to chase. That's what Kobe Bryant means to them.
His paranoia, his stubbornness, his competitiveness, his hard work, have inspired a generation.
The next day, the day of the All-Star Game, it can be seen that there are too many people wearing Kobe's No. 8 or No. 24 jersey on the scene, and he has not decided which number Kobe Bryant will retire, and even last night, he was still discussing this issue with Xie Chen, Xie Chen joked that it would be okay to let the Lakers retire all your two numbers.
In fact, Kobe himself hopes to retire No. 24, after all, although No. 8 Kobe has 3 championships, but they are all taken with O'Neal, No. 24 Kobe is different, that is the absolute leader who represents the absolute core, but, from the perspective of personal ability, No. 8 Kobe seems to be more rebellious, after all, there is a miracle of 81 points in a single game.
On the whole, the No. 24 jersey will definitely be retired, and whether the No. 8 jersey can be retired at the same time, it's not easy to say, look at the Lakers' retired jerseys so far, there are only 9, No. 13 basketball emperor Chamberlain, No. 22 Baylor, No. 25 Goodrich, No. 32 Magic, No. 33 Abdul-Jabbar, No. 34 O'Neal, No. 42 James Worthy, No. 44 Mr. LOGO, No. 52 Wilkes.
The Purple Lakers are not called in vain, the Lakers are full of talents, and the standard for jersey retirement is very high, but it is not ruled out that other teams will retire Kobe's No. 8 jersey, after all, even the Heat, a team that has nothing to do with Jordan, has retired Jordan's jersey.

"CCTV, CCTV audience friends, we are now in the Canadian Aviation Center Gymnasium for you to broadcast the 2016 NBA All-Star Game, today the scene can be said to be full of people, the whole stadium is crowded with people, but also in recent years the most watched All-Star game, this will be Kobe Bryant's last All-Star, and tonight, he will be with Xie Chen, James and other stars on the same game, there are many people hope that Kobe Bryant before retirement, Can you win another All-Star MVP, Director Zhang, do you think Kobe Bryant at this age still has a chance? Yu Jia turned to Zhang Weiping.
Zhang Weiping is also excited today, after all, he has been commenting on Kobe's ball for 20 years, and his feelings for Kobe are also very deep: "I think there is still a chance, Kobe's last All-Star is still a starter, and the coach will definitely give him enough playing time, you must know that the coach of the Western All-Star is the interim coach of the Warriors Wharton, what is the relationship between Wharton and Kobe?" Right? That's a comrade-in-arms who once scored 85 points on a single occasion! And in addition to the coach, every star in the West respects Kobe very much, including Curry, Harden, or even Howard, although this is the home of the Toronto Raptors, but he will definitely deliberately make Kobe win the MVP, and he will not rob it, and he will not dare to rob it, so if Kobe can get his wish, he has to ask James and Xie Chen on the other side. See if they let the West win. β
Of course, Kobe's fans hope that Xie Chen and James can complete Kobe Bryant and let Kobe have a successful ending, but what they don't know is that before the game, Kobe personally went to the Eastern players and told each of them that they must do their best to defend him, especially for Xie Chen and James, which makes it difficult for Xie Chen and James to do.
Soon came the appearance ceremony of the All-Star Game, and this year's appearance ceremony arranged Kobe Bryant in the last one in order to highlight Kobe, and all the players did not have any objections.
Then only that familiar voice was heard: "Let's welcome a player from Raul Merry High School, 18-time All-Star, third-highest single-game scoring record in history, 5 championships, 2-time NBA Finals MVP, 6 feet 6 inches, No. 24, Kobe Bryant...... Bryant! β
The dim lights on the scene were instantly lit up, Kobe Bryant appeared under the cheers of the audience, Xie Chen clapped his hands and watched this scene, thinking: "I don't know what the scene will be like when I retire?" (To be continued.) )
