From today on is the king

Chapter 674. 673. The Black Mamba's Road to Reversal (asking for a monthly ticket)

After Liu Mang won the three-point contest championship trophy, he came to the seat next to the big guy Wagner. Little Lolita came over immediately and stared at Liu Mang with her big eyes shining with "worship".

"..." Liu Mang didn't want to hear what this little loli had to say, "Take it."

"Uncle is the best!" Dinah held the trophy and continued to watch the game.

Liu Mang watched Boykins of the Nuggets, Baron Davis of the Hornets, Marbury of the Knicks, and Payton of the Lakers start their preparations for the Skills Challenge. The competition of these four players is still very suspenseful. They all have good skills and can pass the ball, so it will definitely be very intense, but Liu Mang's focus is not on the next game, but on the matter of awarding just now.

Because of Adam Silva's "spoiler", Liu Mang's original plan to pretend to be a king has not been completed, but this is not important. The important thing is that this future president really makes people feel uncomfortable.

Some people, to put it mildly, have a poor EQ, but a person in his 40s may not grow up, but at least he should learn respect. Adam Silva has frequently appeared in public in the past two years. After David Stern turned 60 years old, Adam Silva ascended to the throne of vice president and often came out to show his sense of presence. Everyone knows Sima Zhao’s heart.

Adam Silva has fully demonstrated what is called "self". Of course, this is a trivial matter. People, including Larry Bird, all think that Adam Silva is too excited. In the past, Adam Silva issued various small awards in the background, such as trophies such as the best of the month. It was the first time he presented the awards on stage, and he was too excited to understand.

But Liu Mang knew that this guy was absolutely self-centered!
Liu Mang can probably understand why David Stern, who was calling for retirement when he was 60, delayed his retirement until he was in his 70s. He probably thinks that Adam Silva will improve in this regard when he is in his 50s.

And Adam Silva has been in the NBA for more than ten years, has accumulated abundant resources, and shot a group of president successors to death on the beach. His strong business operation ability is liked by all team owners. The only choice for president successor is Adam Silva.

It's just that Liu Mang knew that even if it took more than ten years for this guy, there would be no change, and he even took away the job of presenting the MVP award in the finals.

At this stage, Adam Silva just stole the limelight on a small award. Although the fans were very surprised, it did not cause much disturbance.

Liu Mang sighed, and didn't pay much attention to this matter. Thinking about it, when Adam Silva came to power, he was already in his 30s. At the end of his career, it was very risky that he would not meet this master at his peak, otherwise he would have encountered many moths.

……

In the next skills challenge, Baron Davis of the Hornets won the championship with a time of 33 seconds. The result was mediocre, not as amazing as last year’s Liu Mang. It can only be said that the four contestants performed very well. This is the second skill challenge. The players have already trained. Unlike last year, most people don’t know how to play.

The results of the preliminaries were around 38 and 39 seconds. Payton and Baron Davis entered the finals with 38.3 seconds and 38.6 seconds. In terms of intensity, they were more interesting than last year. Last year, it was just a hooligan who was amazing. This time, the four players’ preliminaries were extremely close. Marbury took 39 seconds and Boykins only took 39.7 seconds.

In the final, Payton took 35 seconds to complete the race. Baron Davis won by only two seconds and won the championship in 33 seconds.

……

After the Skills Challenge, the Slam Dunk Contest ensued after a mid-song by Progressive Dark Rock, led by Grammy Award Winner Amy for Best New Artist.

The No. 1 pick in the preliminaries was the Celtics' Ricky Davis who "choose James to help me" and made his first dunk. Ricky Davis tried twice in a row to play a difficult game but failed. In the end, he had to do a 360-degree one-handed dunk with a mid-air turn and scored 35 points.

It has to be said that whenever there is a slam dunk contest with a god-level performance in the second year, the judges have very tricky tastes. This time, because of the confrontation between Liu Mang and Carter last year, the judges have been tricked.

The second player to play is Anderson, the tattooed male birdman of the Nuggets. The big man is always creative. He took off with one step in the top corner on the left side of the free throw line.

It is not difficult, but full of creativity, the referees gave a high score of 45 points.

The third player to play is Fred Jones of the Pacers. Compared with the other three, Jason Richardson was the slam dunk champion in 2002, Birdman Anderson was a notorious villain on the court, and Ricky David was also very famous in the past two years. Fred Jones was just a second-year backup shooting guard for the Pacers.

Similarly, Fred Jones didn't have too many amazing performances. He played a step inside the free throw line and changed hands to receive a half-circle windmill dunk, imitating the actions Liu Mang and Carter had done.

There is no creativity, just that it is more difficult than Ricky Davis's dunk, and it is more entertaining for the judges than Birdman Anderson's pure creativity. Fred Jones scored the highest score of 46 points in the first round.

Jason Richardson's first dunk was simple, a windmill dunk with a vertical jump under the basket, and he only scored 42 points.

The dunk in the first round of the preliminaries was so miserable that many fans in front of the TV and at the scene had lost interest.

In the second round, Ricky Davis wanted to play a crotch switch to catch a two-handed dunk, but the dunk flew. He only scored 31 points and was the first to be eliminated.

Birdman Anderson's mentality is similar to that of Stoudemire last year. He dunked the best dunk on the first dunk, played a tomahawk and roared a few times, and won the cheers of fans who like him.

The judges were also amused, and they actually gave a score of 40 and 85 points, and it is really possible to enter the finals.

However, Fred Jones was much more creative in his dunk in the second round. He threw the ball on the rim and bounced it, then took off 360 degrees and turned around to receive the bounced ball, pulled it behind his head and cut it into the rim.

Jason Richardson saw that Fred Jones dunked such a beautiful dunk. The total score was 96 points, and Birdman Anderson, who was temporarily ranked second, also had 85 points.

Jason Richardson first threw the ball high to the backboard, then rushed to the three-point line, caught the ball in the air and stepped down to change hands while turning 90 degrees to the left.

The dunk in the second round of the preliminaries was finally worth watching, and the referee gave another 50 points!
Since Fred Jones only scored 31 points for a dunk by Ricky Davis, a dunk like Birdman scored 40 points because he was funny because he was a big man, and was forced to use a well-prepared dunk in advance to force out Jason Richardson's dunk.

Finally, this slam dunk contest is also something to watch!Fred Jones and Jason Richardson advanced to the final with combined scores of 96 and 92.

Two perfect dunks by Fred Jones and Jason Richardson made the atmosphere lively again.

After a 3-minute break, the two contestants came to the field.

In the first deduction of the final, both of them want to win first!
When Jason Richardson faced Fred Jones in the final, he wanted to play a high-difficulty dunk. The main reason was that he had no creativity. He still wanted to play a high-difficulty crotch hand-turning dunk, but he was not as lucky as in the preliminaries.

Fred Jones’s dunk idea is also average. It can only be said that he has good physical fitness and looks comfortable. He rushed to the basket from the left bottom corner to dunk the ball towards the basket, retrieved the ball before dunking, and slid across the basket.

Jason Richardson's second dunk was also quite miserable, and he failed to make two consecutive dunks. In the third dunk, there was another dunk that he had used before, and he only scored 33 points.

In the end, Fred Jones scored 37 points with a turn and folded back dunk, and won the slam dunk contest championship with a miserable total score of 84 points.

The slam dunk contest was far less intense than this year's three-point contest and skill challenge. Originally, in the second round of the preliminaries, they thought that there would be some amazing performances, but the result was that both of them were forced to use their best dunks. The level of the finals of this slam dunk contest was terribly low!
The fans and players watching from the sidelines were also embarrassed, like a social rookie who thanked him early, and had to cheer loudly against his conscience, thinking that I might as well do it myself...

……

……

"Ding... The mission of the king of the NBA All-Star Three-Point Shootout Contest is completed, and the mission rewards skill: Quick Shooting Master Level 1."

"Ding... Congratulations to the host for winning the three-point contest. The reward is 2000 superstar points."

"Ding... Congratulations to the host for winning the title of the strongest three-point contest champion in history and getting 100000 rogue points."

"Ding……"

"Ding……"

Waking up in the morning, Liu Mang opened the system panel, and there were a lot of small reward reminders.

Last night Liu Mang didn't care about this, the traffic jam was to death, it was really a bad decision to leave after watching the slam dunk contest, it was almost 12 o'clock when we got back to the holiday villa, we chatted for a while, took a shower and fell asleep, the two girls couldn't bear it after being tossed for two consecutive days, lying next to Liu Mang and forced to act coquettishly, especially Levia acted coquettishly, Liu Mang felt creepy and terrible, so Liu Mang didn't force anything to do.

It's still the same as before, life hasn't changed much, Liu Mang likes this state very much, when he feels like it, he can have a show, and occasionally the woman will take the initiative, but it hasn't become corrupted by it.

In the end, feelings will eventually become "life", and being able to live together in the end is the best result.

Because of some different experiences together, Liu Mang, Alexia, and Levia have come to the state of life one step faster, instead of yelling about love and love all day long, they have passed through life early. Of course, they will not refuse such a thing.

The three of them are still financially independent. After discussing it, Alexia decided to continue her career as a teacher, Levia continued her career in buying and selling houses, and Liu Mang played basketball of course.

Liu Mang felt the difference between American women and some domestic women. They pursued their own rights, but they also understood their obligations. Most American women are relatively more self-reliant and self-reliant, and they rarely hold the banner of women's rights and shout that making money is a man's business.

Either be an honest full-time wife without rights, or pursue your own rights to be self-reliant and self-reliant.

Liu Mang thinks this kind of relationship is very good, he doesn't need to think about it too much, but the relationship is a bit complicated.

Liu Mang looked at the rewards he got, and saw that there were 19117 superstar points left, 16 skill upgrade cards, 69 physical energy potions, and 33 primary injury potions. Fortunately, the two standing items of physical potions and primary injury potions were still enough. When he was fighting the Timberwolves before, he used up too much. But defeating Garnett, these are all worth it. In order to get the MVP and lay the foundation for the game, you must win it.

There are 16 skill upgrade cards, which can upgrade the newly acquired skills to level 3, and Liu Mang upgraded decisively.

"Boss of the system, use 15 skill upgrade cards to upgrade the quick shot master to level 3!"

"The host uses 15 skill upgrade cards to upgrade the quick shot master..."

"Ding... Quick Shooting Master Level 3: When catching and shooting, there is a 30.00% chance to ignore the impact of running, and the shooting speed will be increased by [-]% without affecting the feel."

There is 1 skill upgrade card left...the superstar value is gone, and I have to play better and complete more tasks next.

没有升级的技能还有高位背身技巧1级、火锅盛宴3级、花式扣篮3级、坚如磐石1级、未激活的翻身跳投大师以及刚刚获得的快速投篮大师3级，任重而道远啊！

However, thinking about Jordan's second comeback in his 30s, he developed more abilities. Liu Mang thought that he might be able to reach that level in his 20s, and he thought it was not bad, so he took it step by step.

After thinking about the development path, Liu Mang turned off the system panel. There are still things to be busy today.

Looking at the "house slave" Levia, who was bargaining with the real estate agent, and Alexia packing her things, Liu Mang felt that life didn't seem to have changed much, but there were some changes.

Alexia's idea is that after buying this villa, it will be used as a vacation villa in the future. There is no need to take away so many things. There are a bunch of sundries bought in Los Angeles these days.

After returning to the holiday villa last night, Liu Mang discussed with Levia and Alexia, and decided to buy this special villa for future vacations. Everyone loves Los Angeles, and Liu Mang is the same. It feels good to live in summer, and the house price is cheap now. Liu Mang remembers that Kobe sold a villa that Kobe bought for more than 200 million dollars in the past few years, and sold it for more than 1400 million dollars in the future. The decline in the purchasing power of US dollars is far less than the rise in housing prices.

Last night, Liu Mang didn't continue to toss about. The main reason is that the regular season will continue in two days, and the game is about to be played. Liu Mang didn't think about those things. Physical fitness is not a problem. Although Liu Mang can recover, the main thing is that he can't let his energy be distracted.

Liu Mang also likes this kind of thing, but he knows that he can't indulge in it. Wenrou Township is a hero's tomb. Such examples are too common, not to mention that he can still use physical potions to one-on-one. Liu Mang knows that he can't be too greedy for this aspect.

After breakfast, Liu Mang said hello to Levia, who was bargaining, and Alexia, who was about to take Dinah and bodyguard Wagner out to buy Wagner two better clothes, and then went to the Staples Center early. Today is a busy day.

……

At the Staples Center, Liu Mang, Stockton, Raheem, and Ratliff, who were about to laugh so hard, met up to take a makeup photo with other Eastern Conference All-Stars.

On the last day of the All-Star Weekend, the little blacksmith in Los Angeles finally showed up, but just like Adi terminated his contract with him, the NBA also canceled his All-Star Weekend public welfare activities. Liu Wei only saw him for a while when he was taking makeup photos and round table meetings in the morning, and he did not see him in various activities after that.

Today's interview was very harmonious, there wasn't too much scolding or confrontation, it was surprisingly harmonious, none of the Eastern and Western All-Stars said they wanted to win the MVP or something, and they were all restrained.

This disappointed the media, and it was too far away from the much-watched All-Star weekend in the past two years.

Not only the events of the previous two days, but Liu Mang also whetted the media's appetite.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, during the two-hour All-Star team training, the little blacksmith appeared again. Seeing Liu Mang, McGrady, Carter, Reed, and the other three All-Stars of the Eagles gathered together in a happy and happy atmosphere, the little blacksmith just said hello to Liu Mang, McGrady, and Garnett from the Western Conference. He did not go to training alone with the Western All-Stars.

At this stage, the little blacksmith is quite pitiful. He and his teammates have fallen out. The head coach Phil Jackson is not friendly to Kobe because his daughter has the same experience of being bullied. Kobe seems to have autism himself. Others who participated in the All-Star Weekend obviously did not have too much prejudice against him. Takumi restricted his thinking from the atmosphere of the team and fell into a lonely world.

Seeing Kobe training alone, Liu Mang felt really pitiful.

But a poor person must have something to hate, and a hateful person must have pitiful suffering. Some people look pitiful, but in most cases, people will feel sad and angry. But when it comes to the little blacksmith, Liu Mang doesn't think this thing can defeat this guy at all.

So, seeing how pitiful the little blacksmith was, Liu Mang not only showed no sympathy, but made up his mind to catch this guy before he reached his peak, and torture him to death if he had the chance...

Originally, Liu Mang thought that this year's All-Star Weekend was just for fun, because there was nothing special to compete with this year. The two All-Stars of the Lakers who are playing at home can only behave with their tails between their tails because of the troubles caused by Kobe. Therefore, there is no backbone in the Western Conference. This year's All-Star Weekend does not seem to be anything special.

However, just after Liu Mang greeted Kobe and Liu Mang had an evil thought, the system prompt came...

"Ding... The road to the Black Mamba's rebellion has begun..."
