And this short one-hour break Lin Fei did not waste, because there was a slam dunk contest on the spot, although Lin Fei thought that the slam dunk contest was no longer comparable after the 2000 Carter Maddy Francis three-person competition, and finally the slam dunk contest ended with "Little Potato" Nate Robinson wearing a green jersey in the finals, holding a green basketball, looking like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but in fact, he played the only Achilles heel of Superman in the Superman movie - the green krypton planet element to defeat Howard, And Howard was also happy to help Robinson remove the cardboard person on the All-Star stage.

In the end, with the "Krypton dunk" of "Superman" Howard, "Little Potato" Robinson won the dunk king for the second time in 2006 and became the slam dunk champion of the 2009 All-Star Weekend. Lin Fei watched the dunk contest with relish, and the next game on the scene was the H-O-R-S-E shooting competition.

It's a fresh game that aims to keep the fans up for something new. So at this year's Phoenix All-Star Weekend, a new event was added to the All-Star Game — the H-O-R-S-E shooting competition. Lin Fei became one of the participants in the first competition, and the rest were Kevin Durant, who had just become Lin Fei's friend, and Joe, the "Eagle King" of the Atlanta Hawks. Johnson.

The four of them will compete for the first H-O-R-S-E shooting competition.

Lin Fei took the manual of the H-O-R-S-E shooting game and looked at it again, this game is extremely popular among the American people, this is a shooting game where whoever gets the first 5 letters will be out first. According to the rules of the H-O-R-S-E shooting competition, the players play in a pre-arranged order, and the player who comes on the court first can choose to shoot in any position on the court, and if he shoots in this position, then the other two players must complete the shot in the same position and in the same way. If the other two can't make the required shot, or misses the shot, they get the first letter h of the word "horse", and the next player chooses a new shot position and shooting method. When a player receives 5 letters, he is eliminated from the tournament and the game will continue until both players fail 5 times to get the word "horse", and the remaining one will be the final champion.

This is a creative shot, Lin Fei didn't prepare before the game, he could only improvise, when the referee walked to the center of the court and summoned the three of them over, the draw was carried out in the order of appearance, and the first one to play in such a game was undoubtedly the best.

Lin Fei was lucky to be the first to appear, Durant was the second, and Johnson was the third.

After thinking about it, Lin Fei finally thought of the first way to shoot, when Lin Fei stood at the free throw line with his back to the basket, the audience at the scene was wondering if Lin Fei would choose to shoot back, but when they thought so, Lin Fei bent down, looked at the rebound from his crotch, grabbed the ball with both hands and smashed it from his crotch to the rebound, and then immediately turned around and ran to the basket with a simple step to jump, and then gently threw the rebounded ball into the basket.

"This kind of shooting is not very difficult, is Lin going to waste his huge advantage in the first appearance like this?" The on-site commentator also raised his own questions, just when everyone thought that Lin Fei's shooting was over, the benefits of landing quickly after jumping were fully reflected, Lin Fei jumped immediately after landing, and at this time, the basketball fell from the basket through the basket, facing the falling ball, Lin Fei grabbed a small windmill with both hands and dunked the ball into the basket.

"Hey, Kevin, Joe, it's time for you to get on, this kind of shooting is a little simple, it's cheap for you." Lin Fei shrugged his shoulders and said lightly.

"Hell, you guy Lin is really as cunning as the legend says." Johnson feigned anger.

"You just met? God takes care of you too much. Durant looked at Johnson enviously and said, and then walked to the free throw line in the referee's blow, he needed to complete the action that Lin Fei had just done or he would get a word.

And Kevin Durant staggered and finally finished Lin Fei's movements, and Durant shook his fist at Lin Fei.

"Lin, your idea is shattered, Kevin is done and I can too,." Johnson patted Lin Fei and said.

Lin Fei looked at Johnson with disdain and said, "Okay, Joe, although Kevin can, you may not be able to. ”

Sure enough, as Lin Fei said, Johnson's bounce and reflexes had problems in completing the link of catching and dunking, the basketball smashed in the front and popped up, and Johnson will get an H as Johnson's shot fails.

And because of Johnson's failure, Durant will be the first to shoot, Durant is not as risky as Lin Fei but chose an arc top turn three-point shot, and the basketball accurately smashed into the basket.

"Is this giving up a chance?" Many people think so, because they have no doubt about Lin Fei's three-point ability, and Durant's shooting method is undoubtedly a valuable opportunity in their eyes.

Johnson stood at the top of the arc and looked at the basket with his back to the basket, but God was obviously not prepared to take care of Johnson today, such a relatively simple way of shooting Johnson was not completed, the basketball smashed on the inside of the basket and bounced out, and he will get an "o" for this shot failure.

Lin Fei stood at the top of the arc, his expression was very relaxed, after adjusting his rhythm, Lin Fei jumped on the spot and turned to look at the basket to pull the ball out, and the basketball fell into the basket cleanly.

"Kevin, your shooting is too difficult, and I have a better way to entertain you this time." Lin Fei said triumphantly to Durant, and then took the ball and walked behind the rebound.

Looking at the basket in front of the rebound, Lin Fei pushed the ball up, the basketball reached the highest point in an almost straight line and then fell, and when it fell, it happened to jump over the rebound and fell almost vertically, at this time Lin Fei immediately ran to the front of the rebound, the basketball just fell through the net bag, and Lin Fei, who was rising, grabbed the ball firmly and then sent the ball into the basket after a 360-degree turn in the air.

"Wow......" American Airlines Center erupted in a huge exclamation, although it is also a goal and then throw, but this time the difficulty is undoubtedly much greater than the first time, first of all, it is not easy for the ball to enter the frame from behind the rebound, and secondly, it is necessary to receive the ball in the air and turn around 360 degrees and then shoot, combined with the difficulty coefficient can be imagined.

Durant and Johnson frowned at the same time, before the game, Lin Fei said that he was not specially prepared, and now he doesn't believe it if he is not ready to kill him, seeing Lin Fei coming over, Durant greeted him, "You, I despise you, is this called unprepared?" Hmph, you wait for me, and I'll make a trick next time. ”

"I wasn't prepared!" Lin Fei said innocently, "I just saw a video of someone competing in the H-O-R-S-E shooting game on the Internet, and they are much more difficult than my shooting......"

"Lin, needless to say, I will definitely be the first to be eliminated, shame!" Joe Johnson's depressed voice interrupted Lin Fei's words.

Durant walked to the back of the rebound, looked at the basket in front of him through the tempered glass, and calculated what kind of arc and height strength in his heart, although he had played with the rebound back shot, but the shooting percentage could not be guaranteed at all, not to mention calculating his starting point, how to make his body turn in the air and then shoot.

After a whistle, Durant threw the ball in his hand, the basketball jumped over the rebound as scheduled and began to fall, Durant immediately ran to the front of the rebound, saw that the basketball should fall into the basket, and his heart was slightly relieved, although he and Lin Fei became good friends after yesterday's rookie game, but the heart of the heart will still have the desire to win, jump against the basketball, grab the ball and turn to shoot, but the feeling of turning around makes Durant a little awkward, and finally can only reluctantly shoot.

There was a cry of regret at the scene, and Durant's shot slipped down after two laps around the basket. So Durant also gets an "H".

"I was close to doing it, this time it was just bad luck." Durant ran to Lin Fei's side and broke his thoughts.

It was Joe Johnson's turn, Johnson's first step was not completed, the basketball jumped over the rebound and fell to the basket but did not go in but bounced off, directly causing him to get the third letter "R", getting closer and closer to the brink of elimination.

"I'm not as perverted as you." Johnson found a reason for himself.

In this way, the third ball is still Lin Fei who shoots first, and then Durant and Johnson imitate, "This time it's very simple, it's shooting!" Lin Fei smiled and walked onto the court again, but his smile was very deceitful in the eyes of Durant and Johnson.

Lin Fei dribbled the ball to the middle circle, looked at the basket, and slapped the ball a few times.

Shooting in the middle circle Lin Fei often finished shooting with his teammates during training, and this kind of shooting game has basically been played by every team, it is impossible to complete it with the most standard shooting method on the spot, no one has that much strength, but Lin Fei stayed in the middle circle without running, which made everyone worry about Lin Fei's shooting, whether there would be an air balloon in this shot, but Lin Fei chose it like this.

Looking at the basket in situ, Lin Fei held the ball in both hands and raised it to his forehead, and after pushing the ground with his left foot, the whole person jumped up by the momentum, and did not wait for his body to stop in the air, but pushed the ball out with his right hand with the momentum of jumping up.

Under the attention of the audience, the basketball quickly flew towards the basket.

Tong!

Swish!

"God is wearing the Los Angeles number eight again, which is a very lucky goal, and that difficulty puts a lot of pressure on Kevin and Joe." The narrator said with a smile.

The American Airlines Center is like a huge powder keg that has been ignited, and the H-O-R-S-E shooting game is very popular among the American people, and it is undoubtedly a huge pleasure to see these stars playing in such an atmosphere, and the fact that the game is really exciting so far, and it is not a new project and the ratings are not high.

"I have the urge to surrender and admit defeat." Johnson feigned frustration.

Lin Fei spread his hands at Durant and Johnson, "I don't mind if I can." ”

When Johnson's shot only touched the Nets, Johnson was already one step away from elimination, and Durant was also unlucky, in the words of the commentator, God only favored Lin Fei alone.

A few rounds later, when Durant also got his "S", Lin Fei got an "H", and then it was Lin Fei's shot.

"Lin, be merciful to your subordinates!" Durant said with a look of pleading.

"I'll think about it!" Lin Fei smiled and walked onto the field.

"If Lin had made a difficult shot this time, the game would probably have come to an end, although I didn't want it to end so early." The narrator said helplessly, his eyes followed Lin Fei tightly.

Standing at the bottom corner of the three-point line, Lin Fei dribbled the ball and rushed to the basket, and when he came to two steps away from the three-second zone, his right hand suddenly went up, and the basketball flew straight out.

The basketball rebounded on the edge of the rebound as Lin Fei expected, Lin Fei jumped up against the basketball, grabbed the basketball steadily, turned 180 degrees in the air, and then completely turned his back to the basket, Lin Fei turned his head sideways, and the corner of his eye skimmed the basket behind him, and then threw the ball behind him with his right hand.

"You can also come in this way, I'll have a treat at night." Durant muttered.

"Kevin, you mean what you say." Johnson's keen hearing immediately said that the basketball fell into the basket as Johnson spoke.

Durant's mouth opened and then said depressedly, "Do I really not have Lin Shuai?" ”

"Kevin, that's obvious." Joe Johnson hit Durant mercilessly.

"I'm not going to end it so soon, never!" Durant waved his fist at Lin Fei and said viciously.

But after Durant ran away, the trajectory of the basketball was very similar to Lin Fei's movements, but he proved that he really did not have Lin Feishuai, when he turned around 180 degrees, the basketball brushed out of the frame again, and the angry Durant couldn't, with Durant's missed shot this time, he got the fifth letter "e", and officially announced the birth of the champion of the first H-O-R-S-E shooting game.

"Congratulations on winning the first H-O-R-S-E shooting contest." Cheryl Miller stood in front of Lin Fei.

"Thank you!"

"Listen to Joe Johnson, Kevin is not as handsome as you and has led to a couple of balls, what do you think?"

"Well, as for the fact that I'm more handsome than Kevin, I will never deny it, because it's an ironclad fact, but why did he lose because I was handsome?" Lin Fei was a little confused.

Miller's eyes widened, and he had an expression of being defeated by Lin Fei, "You don't know this?" ”

Lin Fei shrugged, "I really don't know." ”

Miller smiled, "Okay handsome, let me tell you why, right?" ”

Lin Fei looked at Miller's rich expression and had the urge to laugh.

“god！ is！ a！ girl！ ”

Cheryl Miller's answer made Lin Fei laugh involuntarily, but this sentence became the reason why many people came to explain that Lin Fei could always shoot lucky balls and key balls, and when the last game of Lin Fei's career ended, a reporter asked Lin Fei the reason for the success of his career, and Lin Fei's answer was official.

The H-O-R-S-E Shooting Tournament was followed by the Shooting Stars Mixed Shooting Tournament, another shooting tournament in which the four teams participating in the tournament were the hosts Phoenix, San Antonio and Detroit in addition to Los Angeles.

The mixed shooting team requires one active NBA player, one retired NBA star and one WNBA player, and each team will have five shooting points on the court in turn, after which they will shoot at the sixth shooting point located in the half, and they will try to complete the game in less time within the 2-minute time limit, and in the preliminary round, the two teams with the shortest time will advance to the finals, and the team with the shortest time in the finals will win the championship.

The Los Angeles team is made up of Lin Fei and the legendary Bob McAdoo of the Los Angeles Clippers and Leslie, the legendary superstar of women's basketball history who now plays for the Los Angeles Sparks, and Los Angeles will be in the second appearance.

The first to play was the Detroit team, which consisted of Aflosha, Bill Lanbier, and Smith, the MVP of the 2008 WNBA Finals. However, Detroit didn't do well in the preliminaries, and after nearly two minutes of shooting from the halfway line, it was finally shot by Ranbier, and it took a total of 59.3 seconds to complete the game.

Lin Fei has strong confidence in his shooting, and Bob McAdoo, as a former two-time scoring champion and MVP, showed his shooting strength in the warm-up, and Leslie is the same, the three of them got together and shouted cheers after Lin Fei was the first to start shooting, Lin Fei's easy shooting made a good start for the Los Angeles team, only encountered some trouble at the top of the arc, but soon only stayed for one round, and came to the last point when the circle shot, Lin Fei continued his good luck and sent the ball to the basket for the first time, while McAdoo and Leslie sent the ball into the basket after three and five times, respectively, but Leslie's shot into the basket took a total of 49.5 seconds.

The third team to take the court was Team Phoenix, the 2005 champion, who sent out Brazilian Lightning Barbossa, Majler and Smith, and Brazilian Lightning Barbossa's three-point shot at the top of the arc was 5 hits, but the overall shooting of the whole team was relatively smooth, and finally took 53.3 seconds to temporarily rank second.

The fourth team to take the field is San Antonio, which consists of Rockford Duncan, Admiral Robinson and Harmon, the trio who won last year's All-Star Game in New Orleans. In the end, the San Antonio team was hit by Harmon in the middle circle, and it took 1:06 to complete the game. In this way, the defending champions San Antonio and Detroit are out, and the hosts Phoenix and Los Angeles advance to the final.

In the final, the hosts Phoenix were the first to play, and it took them 58.4 seconds to finish the game after Barbossa hit the center circle with home advantage.

Next it was Lin Fei's turn to play the Los Angeles team, Lin Fei still maintained a terrifying hit rate, but when it came to the middle circle, Lin Fei and his teammates were in trouble, Lin Fei didn't shoot until the third time After Lin Fei's shot this time, the Los Angeles team completed the game in 57 minutes and 15 seconds, although this result was a little worse than the preliminaries, but it was enough to beat the host Phoenix team, so that the Los Angeles team won this year's mixed shooting championship, and Lin Fei won the fifth honor of this year's All-Star Game, With the fifth honor, Lin Fei is ready to face his second All-Star Game main event.
