Chapter 090: Defending the Three-Point King

After the rookie game, the All-Star Weekend was staged, for Li Chen, before the main game, he still had to win a three-point king, about this glory, even if the big apple wants to let it, it is estimated that no one in the entire league dares to take it, and the star players who were invited to the three-point game are very clear that they used to make the background for the big apple.

Although it sounds very helpless, this is not necessarily a bad thing, after all, in this era when ratings are king, as long as you increase your chances of showing your face, the green dollar bills will definitely be endless, in contrast, it is not a big deal to be someone else's background.

Ahead of the three-point contest is the Skills Race, and this year's four contenders are Jennings of the Bucks, Nash of the Suns, Westbrook of the Thunder and Deron of the Jazz.

Willis, who had an excellent rookie game, was the first to play, but he didn't continue his previous form, and it took three shots to complete a mid-range shot, which was a huge waste of his time, and the time of 44.1 seconds was almost declared dead.

Jennings, who came on second to the court, was much more comfortable in comparison, finishing in one shot in the first few positions, except for a slight trouble on the third pass, which resulted in 35.7 seconds.

As the '05 champion, Nash drew a lot of cheers when he came on, and he also performed quite well, although it took two shots and passes to complete the ball, he still managed to score 35 seconds, which sealed a place in the finals early.

The last to make an appearance was Jazz ace guard Deron Williams, who had won the event in '08. The little fat man was as steady as ever, and in the final time of 34.1 seconds, he and Nash both entered the finals.

The first player in the finals was Nash. After a warm-up in the heats, Nash was clearly in good shape, finishing in one of all three passes and two in the mid-range position, and he finished the final with a time of 29.9 seconds.

Nash's results obviously put a lot of pressure on Delon, but he did quite well in the first few positions, all in one shot, but DeLong had an accident in the third passing position. It took him four passes to complete, and the championship was out of the way, when Delon made the final layup. Nash also had an entertaining chance to try to block it, and in the end, DeLong clocked 37.9 seconds for Nash to take the win.

Facing the camera, Nash, who won the championship again, was very calm. "Dallas is a wonderful place. The people here are very welcoming, and I'm glad I've won another championship and I'm ready to donate all the prize money I have. ”

Before the interview, the Canadian baby was also asked about his thoughts on the three-point contest that would take place later, and Nash had a strange look on his face when he mentioned the Big Apple.

"Even though Phoenix doesn't like that guy very much, I don't think there's anyone else who can compete for the title of three-point king. There's no doubt that he's a freak when it comes to shooting! ”

Nash's belly slander didn't make anyone angry. Although he became the public enemy of Phoenix, Li Chen never took this to heart, and when asked about the three-point game, he pretended to be forced as always.

"Three-point contest? To be honest, I was nervous, the competitors were strong this time! I know the crowd thinks I'm going to win this time, and I think so myself, but there's no guarantee that there won't be any surprises. ”

Like the dunk game, the three-point shootout is another high-profile event on the second day of All-Star Weekend, as defending champions Big Apple will face a number of three-point pickers, including Billups, Curry, Frye, Gallinari and Pierce.

Pierce came first, scoring just one goal in the bottom left corner, but he hit at least three of the next four shots as he scored 17 points and hit three colored shots.

Next up was Billups, who hit the first four balls in the bottom right corner, but unfortunately missed the ball, after which Billups remained stable and he also scored 17 points.

Rookie Curry was scheduled to play third, and it was obvious that he was a little nervous. Babyface chose to start from the bottom left corner, and he also hit four shots in a row, and the second shooting point hit another four shots in a row, but he didn't hit the colored ball.

Although there was not much time left, Curry kept his touch and he finished with 18 points.

Gallinari, who had been humiliated by the Big Apple's unscrupulous humiliation once, made his fourth appearance, and he hit the first two colored balls, but the other few ordinary balls did not shoot well, although he hit four goals from the last shooting point, he still only scored 15 points, obviously, such a score has missed the final.

Frye hit four shots from the first point in his fifth game, but he was hit by a pedal and finished with just 15 points and went out with Gallinari.

Finally it was Li Chen's turn, the noisy arena suddenly quieted down, everyone remembered what the Big Apple said when he won the championship last year, if nothing else, he should fulfill his promise today.

Instead of the nervousness he had described before, Big Apple appeared in the audience's sight with a familiar smiling smile, and as he gestured to the audience, a burst of cries suddenly erupted in the arena.

"30 points!" I don't know who took the lead in shouting, and everyone shouted along, for the big apple that shoots well, it's not a difficult thing, and people are hoping that the NBA will add another stroke to the record book, and history will remember that such a great thing happened in Dallas.

The attitude of the audience made the big apple a little embarrassed, probably feeling the pressure, Li Chen's face was slightly red, standing in the bottom corner of the left, he beckoned to the referee to signal that the preparations were completed, and the noisy arena was instantly quiet, and everyone was waiting for a miracle to come.

Swish! The first goal lived up to expectations, the big apple did not have an accident like last year, it may be the reason why several girls were not present, this time his mood was very calm, according to the usual rhythm, Li Chen threw the ball one by one.

The first three points went very smoothly, Li Chen successfully scored 18 points, and with this score alone, Li Chen was enough to enter the finals, but the audience was unlikely to accept such a result. Li Chen will not either, he still has 10 balls to throw.

Bang! Something worrying happened, and the power of this ball seemed to be a little great. After the basketball hit the basket, there was a burst of exclamations in the arena, if there was an accident with the ball, the so-called miracle would turn into a floating cloud, and everyone didn't want to see this result.

Thankfully, it seemed like it was just a joke by God, and the bounce eventually fell back into the net. And after that, nothing like that happened again, after Li Chen threw the last ball. Another 30 minutes were quietly born, and half of the miracle had already appeared.

There was a round of applause from the audience, perhaps such a result is not unusual for the Big Apple that eats by shooting, but for ordinary people. This is already a miracle. After all, the alliance has done this for so many years, and it is only the Big Apple itself, and there is reason to believe that no one will do it after the Big Apple.

Li Chen made an OK gesture to the audience, and the completion of the first 30-point task made him very happy, since there was a beginning, then there was nothing difficult about the things after that.

Pierce and Billups were called for an extra game because of the deuce, and the result was that the Peels had the last laugh.

The finals begin. It was Pierce who appeared first, and it seems that the performance of the Big Apple affected the Green Army Captain to a certain extent. In the first two points, Pierce also threw a full performance, and his extraordinary performance made those who are familiar with Pierce a little incredulous, it stands to reason that this product is not so accurate.

On the third point, Pierce exposed his true face, all 4 consecutive balls were missed, and the sad result made the leather team's face a little embarrassed, but fortunately, the last color ball was thrown, which was acceptable, and the next two points returned to the normal level, the shooting rate was not bad, and the leather team scored 22 points overall.

Although the results are good, there is not much joy on Pierce's face, and if you think about it carefully, you can know that if it is in an ordinary year, such a result may be able to win a championship, but now with Li Chen's participation, a 22 points is obviously not enough.

Curry came out in the second game, and Babyface played quite well in the first two shooting spots, but he only hit one shot in the third, and although his subsequent shooting improved, he was no longer able to threaten Pierce, and he ended up scoring 17 points.

The decision of the championship came to Li Chen, the big apple was always calm, standing in a familiar position, Li Chen took a deep breath, the shooting mode started again, and there was no extra sound on the field except for the sound of goals.

Fifty seconds later, the Big Apple had finished shooting the first twenty-four balls, and the result was not unexpected, scoring a total of 28 points, just one step away from becoming a god.

Holding the colored ball in his hand, Li Chen did not rush to make a move, after all, there was still time, and he had plenty of time to interact with the fans on the spot.

The cameras at the scene recorded everything that happened today, Big Apple smiled at the camera, and then, like last year, he kissed the basketball very gently, and he had a feeling that he could not easily explain the little thing that changed his fate.

In the midst of everyone's astonishment, the big apple was thrown casually, and it was another thirty points, and the casual posture did not affect the hit rate of the big apple, another thirty points in the history of the league, the first 60-point championship, the longest 50 consecutive hits, and a series of records were suddenly born at this moment.

The audience was already in a frenzy, hugging each other to celebrate the birth of the miracle, and even though they had been prepared beforehand, when the miracle actually came, people still felt unprepared.

Li Chen's underground lover, beautiful reporter Andrews, interviewed several viewers on the spot, and everyone's reactions were different.

"It's amazing, and while I know it's a bit of a no-brainer, I'm going to ask, 'Is that guy still human?' Is there a shooting program set in his body? Or is he a futuristic robot in the guise of a human?' ”

"I was so glad to be there, and I wanted to say to my friend who couldn't be here because of something, 'Steve, I'm sure you've regretted it now, haha, I'm a witness, and you can only watch it on TV!' ”

"Why would the league still allow this guy to participate, it's unfair to others, although two consecutive 30 points are very exciting, but this is more firm in my idea, in the future three-point competition, the big apple must not be allowed to participate, otherwise, this game will lose its meaning, a champion without suspense is the most boring thing in the world!"

The variety of beings made the audience in front of the TV very happy, and Li Chen's personality in the subsequent interview was eye-opening.

"I think this will be the last time I will participate in the three-point game, although I personally want to challenge for a triple championship, but I believe many people are not happy to see such a thing happen, but even so, I want to say, I did it! Whether it's 30 or 50, I did my best to put on a great show for the audience! ”

"Even though you may never see me in the three-point contest again, I'm very satisfied with winning two championships, and I hope that the next few contestants will be able to cheer for me, although I know it's hard to surpass me, but nothing in the world is impossible!" (To be continued......)
