Chapter 181 All-Star Slam Dunk Contest 2
PS: Chapter 2, the same as asking for a monthly pass, asking for a subscription
Feb. 11, Evening Verizon Center Arena.
Luke was selected for the slam dunk contest in place of the Los Angeles Clippers player, and he said that he had a pretty good dunk in the game, first doing a front flip (not a forward roll) and then receiving a pass from a teammate and jumping for a dunk. But Luke still felt a little too two. Luke wants to rewrite this history.
The rules of the slam dunk contest are as follows: since 1994, a total of six players have participated in the slam dunk contest, and the order of appearance is determined by lottery. In the first round, each player dunks three times, and the three players with the highest total score advance to the finals, and the players with the highest scores can play last in the finals. In the final stage, each person will be deducted twice, and the winner with the highest score will be the champion.
Next is the draw ceremony. Baran Davis drew the No. 1 pick. Then there was Desmond. Mason, third is Luke. The people in the back are in their rightful positions.
Baron Davis was the first to play. His dunk is not difficult, but it is not easy.
First, he started from the middle circle and dribbled twice. After all, it was the first one who was a little nervous, so Baron Davis opted for a relatively simple dunk. First, the ball is thrown into the air, and then it starts slowly as the ball lands, and when the ball lands on the ground, it suddenly accelerates, and uses the rebound force of the ball to dribble the ball to a high place. Caught it was a one-handed slam dunk. It's simple, but it shows off Baran Davis' bouncing ability and his terrifying waist and belly strength.
Desmond, who now wears the No. 24 of the Seattle SuperSonics. Mason (I almost made a mistake) opted for a relatively simple move, dribbling over a bent teammate and then slamming a gliding one-handed slam from outside the three-second zone. Mutombo on one side was also cheering (he turned out to be also hypersonic).
Next up is Luke.
Let's be honest. Ever since receiving the invitation to the slam dunk contest, Luke has been preparing for the slam dunk contest.
There are many actions to dunk. A whole bunch of tomahawk-like stuff. But not everyone can do it perfectly, especially this 2001 slam dunk contest. At the 2000 nBA Slam Dunk Contest. The amazing performances of Carter and others feasted everyone's eyes, and Carter won the championship of the dunk contest with 5 shocking dunks of 'turning 360 degrees to receive the big windmill dunk', 'turning 180 degrees to catch the big windmill dunk after rebounding', 'T-MAC assists the crotch change dunk', 'elbow dunk' and 'one step forward to the free throw line and slamming with both hands' 5 shocking dunks, and naturally they expect this slam dunk contest to perform better. But Luke knew that there was no one before and no one else could surpass Carter's existence, including Griffin, who loved to dunk, but couldn't match Carter's heyday ability.
This slam dunk contest is destined to disappoint a lot of people.
But Luke desperately wants to win the slam dunk title. This year's data list has basically been divided.
Allen still occupies the first place in the scoring list, and he also holds the first place in the steals list. The rebounding list is held by Mutombo, who is still with the Hawks, the block leader is held by Big Ben, who has stolen Theo Ratliff's playing time, and the assist list is the only stat king Luke can think of. But now at the top of the list is Jason Kidd, the "triple-double machine". For Jason Kidd, who is basically desireless now, brushing assists is one of the few things he can do.
Now he's averaging a dozen assists per game (9.8 per game after the end of the season), and he basically can't catch up unless the whole team helps him brush up on the stats.
The three-point contest did not participate, and now the most likely to win the data king is only this game - the dunk king of the slam dunk contest.
Each player gets five dunks, which is five different moves. Each of the top three must be guaranteed a good score to advance to the finals. And the first one can't be too difficult, if it's too difficult and you don't dunk it or you don't dunk it after many experiments, it won't score well. Now let's choose a simpler one, and it's better to move.
So Luke decided on the first move.
The first action is relatively simple. Luke came to the left side and was ready to start.
Luke tosses the ball to the rebound first. Then, with the help of the rebound of the ball, he starts with a strong momentum that seems to leap over the basket, and then uses inertia to fly over the basket, in order to avoid bumping into the basket, of course. Luke chose to take his body. Then turn around for a dunk. He pulled the basket and lowered his body inertia a bit before Luke landed back on the ground.
βyes!β The arena began to cheer. In particular, the 76ers players, led by Allen, began to stand up and cheer.
"Yes, it was a success!" Luke comforted himself. He knew that he couldn't run away with a dunk of more than 45 points.
Then it's just waiting for someone else's dunk.
Just like in previous lives, Jonathan. Bender is still not interested in this impromptu slam dunk contest. It was over with a simple performance of a dunk, and there was basically no hope of advancing to the finals. Luke's heart relaxed.
The people behind finished dunking one after another, and the second round of dunks began again.
It was still Baron Davis who came first. It seems to have been influenced by Desmond. Inspired by Mason, Baron Davis also chose to let his teammates help. This time his teammates sat on the ground. Barang Davis chose to accelerate in the half, then caught the basketball thrown by his teammate, caught it, and then pulled his body into a bow shape and dunked it with one hand. In the end, I almost fell due to physical reasons.
Luke decided to make it simpler. Luke accelerates from the three-point line. Use your blistering speed to start hitting the basket, then choose a jump outside the three-second zone, rotate your body 360 degrees in the air while choosing, step down to change hands and dribble and dunk. Completed the "360-degree rotation of the crotch and the change of hands dunk". Luke's second dunk was also pretty good, with 50 points.
In the final round, the others also used their housekeeping skills, although Luke didn't think it was a big deal.
This time it's DeSean from the Utah Jazz. Stevenson. Dee Shaun. Stevenson enlisted the help of his teammate Brian Russell.
Russell took control of the basketball and then shot it softly. The ball certainly didn't touch the basket. But how could Brian Russell, a veteran defender, make such a mistake, it was all set. After catching the basketball that fell to the ground, Brian Russell accelerated, quickly rushed to the basket, and then turned around and hit the ball on the basket. , behind Deeshan. Stevenson caught up with the rebounding basketball, played a big windmill, and dunked in.
Buckled into Deeshawn. Stevenson began to do his own choreography, and although it was ugly, he danced very hilariously.
Luke is also starting his third dunk. (To be continued......)
