After Adam Shaw invited Carter, Carter agreed without hesitation, as the champion of the 2000 slam dunk contest, as the strongest dunk player in NBA history, he is certainly qualified to sit in the judges' seat, but this is still a bit strange, because Carter is still an active player, an active player to participate in the All-Star, not selected by fans to play, but to be a judge, which is still quite interesting.

The NBA officially announced the news soon: Vince Carter will be a judge of the 2016 Toronto All-Star Slam Dunk Contest!

As soon as the news was announced, the fans became even crazier, especially those black fans of Xie Chen.

"Hahaha, even the NBA officials can't stand it, Xie Chen pretended to be forced, and even specially asked Carter to be the judge of the dunk contest! Didn't Xie Chen say that he wanted to surpass Carter? Watch Carter give you a zero score to make you scream again! ”

"This All-Star Slam Dunk Contest must be a lot of fun! I really want to know how much score Xie Chen will give Xie Chen if he provokes Carter so much? Will you deliberately give a low score? In short, Xie Chen is planted this time! ”

Everyone wants to see Xie Chen's jokes, and the situation has become very similar before last year's All-Star Game, but I didn't expect that in last year's All-Star Game, Xie Chen became the biggest hot spot in the league as a rookie, and this year is the same.

Soon, Xie Chen himself and Wang Zhihui also knew the news. Seeing Wang Zhihui's melancholy appearance, Xie Chen smiled and said, "Isn't it good that Carter is a judge of the dunk contest?" I'm saying these big things to attract fans, and Adam Shaw is helping me. ”

Wang Zhihui said cautiously: "However, I'm still worried that Vince Carter will be a stingy person, such as deliberately giving you a low score......"

Xie Chen waved his hand: "You think too much, Carter is not that kind of person, and even if it is." When he saw my dunk, he couldn't bear to give a low score. ”

Xie Chen has absolute confidence in this point, because Xie Chen used Vince Carter's dunk ability at that time, and when Carter saw Xie Chen's dunk action, he would definitely have a sense of familiarity, and Carter had no reason to dislike his dunk.

Xie Chen kept browsing the comments of netizens on Twitter and Weibo on his computer. The more I watched it, the more interesting it became, there were really many people waiting for him to see the jokes, and really many people thought that Adam Xiaohua invited Carter because he was against Xie Chen.

After thinking about it, Xie Chen decided to make things bigger again!

Xie Chen dialed Michael Jordan's phone.

Jordan was taking a nap at this time, and his wife Yvette saw that it was Xie Chen calling, and immediately took the phone to him, because Jordan had explained that as long as it was Xie Chen's call, he would wake him up even when he was sleeping.

Jordan hadn't talked to Xie Chen for a long time. When I woke up, I answered the phone and looked energetic: "Hey, are you still enjoying the regular season vacation?" If you're bored, you can come and train with me. ”

Jordan also heard about Xie Chen, but he didn't think it mattered, Xie Chen was only in his second year after all, even if he couldn't play this season, it was nothing, Xie Chen had time in the future.

Xie Chen chatted with Jordan for a while. Asked Jordan, "You know I said early on that I was going to play in the slam dunk contest in Toronto. The league has invited Vince Carter to be a judge for one of the dunk contests, I wonder if you would be interested in being a judge with him? ”

"Be a judge?" Jordan paused, in fact, the league has been inviting Jordan to be a judge of the slam dunk contest in recent years, but Jordan doesn't really want to go, Xie Chen is a junior that Jordan admires very much, for Xie Chen. Jordan is willing, not to mention, there is also LeBron James in this year's list.

James has often been compared to Jordan over the years, if you can rate him. I believe it's also good.

Jordan immediately agreed to Xie Chen's request.

Then, two hours later, the NBA officially announced again: the great Michael Jordan will also be a judge of the Toronto All-Star Game Slam Dunk Contest!

"Holy! Even the first generation of flyers can't stand Xie Chen, Xie Chen, no matter how arrogant you are, in front of the two generations of flyers, I see how shocking the dunk you can dunk! You're just waiting to be ashamed! ”

Looking at the comments of netizens, Xie Chen couldn't help but feel ridiculous, but maybe that's where their fun lies. It's good that I don't know the truth and can live so happily.

However, Jordan was a judge of the slam dunk contest, which made James feel uneasy.

……

Soon, the time came to 2016.

2015 can be said to be the most important year in Xie Chen's life, this year, he participated in the All-Star Game as the league's All-Star vote king, defeated Curry to become the champion of the three-point contest, and won the MVP of the All-Star Game, after that, led the Heat to become the team with the best record in the East, and also shined in the playoffs, swept the Pacers, defeated the Bulls, reversed the Cavaliers in the 0:3 down, defeated the Warriors, the team with the best record in the league, in the Finals, and honored FMVP.

This year, Xie Chen also gained marriage.

The new year has begun, and no one will know if Xie Chen will have such enviable achievements in this year.

However, at the beginning of 2016, Xie Chen and his Knicks team were destined not to have a good time.

The Knicks lost all five games in Anthony's suspension and have fallen to eighth place in the East and will soon be squeezed down, although it is still early to end the regular season, but it is undoubtedly a worrying sign.

But fortunately, Anthony is coming back, Xie Chen believes that as long as Anthony is there, the team can still maintain it, and when Xie Chen comes back, the Knicks are still a safe playoff team.

In the first game of Anthony's comeback, against the Hornets, Xie Chen went to Charlotte with the team, hoping to boost the morale of the team and let them end the shadow of this losing streak as soon as possible.

Anthony is very energetic today, he knows that he has a heavy responsibility now, Xie Chen doesn't know how long he will be banned, and before Xie Chen returns, Anthony must carry the team's victory or defeat on his shoulders, if the Knicks continue to lose in a row, and they can't even enter the playoffs at that time, it will really be a joke, the strongest backcourt combination in the league, always saying that the championship is the championship. Isn't that ridiculous?

Anthony is still at the top of the scoring list, beating Stephen Curry, and at the beginning of the game, the posture of the scoring champion was put on, all kinds of three-pointers, all kinds of forced breakthrough layups. The opponent is at a loss, and Al Jefferson is just as good, with a terrible skill in the low back, and Lopez is no match for him.

The scores alternated up and down, and Anthony quickly scored 40 points, but at this time, Anthony accidentally sprained his ankle when he landed on a forced layup!

"Anthony!" Xie Chen saw Anthony's painful appearance, and couldn't help but stand up worriedly.

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight. The Knicks lost in a row, and finally waited for the team's big ace to come back, and finally had the hope of winning, Anthony was injured again in the first game of his comeback, I don't know if Yan is serious, if Anthony can't come back in the short term, then what should the Knicks do?

If the Knicks' record continues to be bad, and Xie Chen and Anthony come back very late. I'm afraid I won't be able to recover by then.

After Anthony went off the court, the Hornets were more offensive. Many people thought that the Knicks were going to finish, but they didn't expect that at this time, rookie Porzingis stood up.

He hit a mid-range shot and then played a pick-and-roll for his teammate, who then received a pass. A big stride into the basket, dodging the defense and putting the basketball in the basket with a slight pick, is a very smart way to play, the kind of goal that you don't see on an interior player like Howard.

Subsequently, the Hornets attacked. He saw Jeremy Lin's open spot in the bottom corner and rushed over very aggressively, and when Lin shot a three-pointer, Porzingis slapped the ball out.

At both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, Porzingis stood up, which made Xie Chen very surprised.

Xie Chen said secretly: "Porzingis has indeed proven himself and proved Phil's vision, but his previous performance can only be said to be okay, maybe it was because everyone looked down on him too much before." He's going to grow very slowly with me and Anthony, but I'm going to win a championship this year, so I can't wait for him to grow and I'm not going to help me much in the playoffs, but now, maybe that's going to change. ”

Xie Chen saw Porzingis, who was young and immature, and was even a little nervous on the field, as if he saw himself last year, and Porzingis also had that hard work and stubbornness not to admit defeat, but this big man didn't like to show it very much.

The Hornets offense is still strong, and in the blink of an eye, they have gone from trailing to leading the Knicks by 5 points, and there are only 3 minutes left in the game, and at this time, Porzingis stood outside the three-point line and shot a three-pointer!

"What?" Even Xie Chen couldn't believe that at such a critical juncture, Porzingis dared to shoot three points?

Swish!

The ball goes into the net!

I actually threw it in!

Xie Chen couldn't help laughing, looking forward to Porzingis' performance more and more.

"Will he lead the team to victory? Will he have the ability? Xie Chen was excited, just like last season in the Heat suddenly knew that Hassan, a guy from the Development League, was a piece of jade, would Xie Chen be so lucky for two consecutive years? Are teams all acquiring future interior talent without any cost or sacrifice?

Then, Porzingis went on a rampage again and staged his best trick, and he dunked people violently! He was very aware of the rebounds and had a very obvious height advantage, and he easily dunked the ball into the basket while grabbing the rebound.

Once again, the Knicks are overtaking!

This is a result that no one expected, in the case of Xie Chen's suspension Anthony retired due to injury, Porzingis actually stood up as a rookie, but the Hornets obviously will not be defeated by a rookie, and then, they fought to catch up, and at the last critical moment, they led by two points.

In the end, with just 0.6 seconds left in the game, the Knicks trailed by two points and it was their last offensive chance.

There is no Xie Chen, no Anthony, no Ray Allen, because Ray Allen is not feeling well, and it seems that no one in the Knicks can complete the final kill or equalize.

Xie Chen was also very impatient in his heart, this feeling of not being able to play was really uncomfortable, he hated Oladipo very much, if it weren't for his provocation, he wouldn't have been banned.

Xie Chen set his eyes on rookie Porzingis again, thinking to himself: "Can he create a miracle to complete the last attack?" ”

It's a pity that the tactics arranged by Fisher were not handed over to Porzingis.

However, the changes on the field were not something that Fisher could control, and the player who was supposed to shoot the lore couldn't catch the ball at all, and in desperation, the ball passed to Porzingis's hands!

As soon as Porzingis got the ball, he immediately made a three-point shot and hit it!

The entire Knicks bench stood up and cheered!

Lore! Porzingis completes the three-point stunner! Did the Knicks finally win a game?

Xie Chen couldn't help but exclaim: "This guy ...... It's amazing, I really underestimated him. ”

Even Porzingis, who scored the last shot, just waved his arm excitedly, without too pompous celebrations, but fortunately, there was none.

Because less than thirty seconds later, the referee suddenly blew another whistle and then made a gesture that the goal was invalid.

The Knicks went from heaven to hell and were replaced by cheers from the Hornets fans in the audience.

This is almost without any controversy, because Xie Chen can also see that Porzingis made a late shot, and the Knicks still did not win in the end, but Xie Chen was extremely happy.

When he saw that his stunner goal was disallowed, the big Latvian boy lowered his head in frustration, not even daring to look up at Xie Chen.

"I'm sorry." Porzingis also knew that Xie Chen wanted the team to maintain its record, and he tried his best, but he did not complete the task and help the team.

Xie Chen saw Porzingis taking the responsibility on his shoulders, but smiled, he had this kind of appreciative smile for Porzingis for the first time, Xie Chen patted Porzingis and said, "Well done, the last shot was beautiful." ”

Porzingis shook his head: "It's a pity that this ball is invalid. ”

Xie Chen told him: "Just go in, in my place, this ball is effective." ”

"Boss ......" Porzingis was also very moved, the first time he heard Xie Chen have such encouragement and recognition for him, he clenched his fists and secretly vowed to perform better in the next game.

After returning to New York, Xie Chen immediately made an appointment with the team's president, Phil Jackson, to discuss a very important issue with the Zen master.

"After you leave, the team can't win a game, I have the same headache as you, and if it goes on like this, you will have to play against a strong team in the first round of the playoffs, and then you may be eliminated in the first round, which is what I don't want to see." Phil Jackson confided in Xie Chen.

Xie Chen replied: "If the playoffs will be eliminated, then whether it is the first round or the Eastern Conference finals, it is the same for me, I don't care about the ranking of the playoffs, as long as I can enter the playoffs, I don't care who the opponent is." I came to you today to talk to you about someone, Porzingis, who I want to be the boss of the current team! (To be continued......)
