Rebirth of Yidi Legend

Chapter 227 The Slam Dunk Contest Begins

2 month 15 day.

That is the second day of the All-Star Weekend.

The league ushered in a day with richer competitions.

The Shooting Star, Skills Challenge, Three Point Shooting Contest and the Slam Dunk Contest that many fans are thinking about will all be held today.

It is also worth mentioning that this year's challenge has added a new content, called the horse game, which is also the so-called imitation match. The three contestants imitate each other's scoring methods. If the imitation is successful, the game will continue. If the imitation fails, one letter will be added until a player who spells horse is eliminated, and finally the champion will be left. This is the first time, um, the only time that the NBA All-Star Weekend compares this item.

The first to start is "Shooting Star".

The final champion was the Detroit team. They took 58.4 seconds, and the Phoenix local team, which also reached the final, almost won. Their first five shots were all direct one-ball hits. They took too much time, and finally exceeded 1 minute, and unfortunately lost.

Immediately after Shooting Star is the Skills Challenge. This year's contestants can also be described as star-studded. There is No. [-] pick Rose, fmvp Tony Parker, and the new All-Star Devin Harris, as well as this time The biggest legacy of the All-Stars, Mo Williams.

The final winner was Derrick Rose. Derrick Rose, who was only a rookie this year, showed mature ball-handling skills and finally defeated Devin Harris in 35.3 seconds to win the cup.

Mo Williams is a bit regretful, just a little bit short, and didn't make it to the final.

This year he was indeed a little unlucky, he was a little bit close to everything, such as this skills challenge, or being selected as an All-Star...

The third challenge is the three-point shooting competition that has attracted more and more attention in recent years. In this challenge, many stories have been born. Needless to say, Larry Bird's trash talk, and "Flying Man" Jordan The embarrassing minimum record of 5 points can make Mr. Joe, who has played all over the league's invincible players in the vertical and horizontal courts, deflate. It is estimated that only this challenge can do it.

However, compared to the Skills Challenge, not all the players participating in the three-point shooting contest this time are well-known.

The biggest player is Lewis of the Orlando Magic. There is no doubt about the three-point ability of Mr. Yi million. It is not surprising that he appeared in the three-point shooting competition as a draft pick.

His opponents were Mike Bibby of the Eagles, Cook of the Heat, Granger of the Pacers and Kapono of the Raptors.

Kapono is the defending champion of this event. Known as "the most accurate shot without defense", he won this event last year. He also successfully entered the final this year. It is a pity that he did not perform well in the final , only scored 14 points.

Lewis also reached the final, and he scored 15 points steadily, which surpassed Kapono.

It's a pity that Cook also scored 15 points and dragged the game into overtime.

Lewis' touch completely disappeared during overtime, and in the end he only scored a poor 6 points. Cook had no pressure and naturally played well. He easily scored 19 points and was crowned the champion of three-point shooting.

Sure enough, the three-pointers with library in the name are very fierce!

Eddie Curry: ? ? ?
Marcus Camby: ? ? ?

OK, when I didn't say it!
"Hey, Yi, how are you doing, do you think this three-point shooting contest is exciting?"

There was still a horse game on the field, and Yi Jianlian didn't need to prepare for the time being. Rachel ran over from nowhere, brought the photographer, and started the interview in a serious manner.

This girl Yi Jianlian hadn't seen her for a long time. He heard from Max Pierce that she seemed to be going back to school to finish her graduation thesis or something, so she obviously came back after finishing her work.

“Excellent!”

"If the league invited you to participate in the three-point shooting contest next season, would you participate?"

This girl, as soon as she came back, wanted to talk to me, Yi Jianlian pouted, she seemed to be the first to release the news last year, and this year he really participated in the slam dunk contest, okay!This started thinking about egging him into the three-point shooting contest again.

However, this is also normal. Yi Jianlian’s three-pointer ability has improved by leaps and bounds this season. He didn’t make a single three-pointer last season. Maintained at 87%, this number is already the league's top three-point shooter, no wonder Rachel would ask this question.

"If the alliance invites, I think I will participate!"

Well, Yi Jianlian still said the same thing. He didn't really reject these seasons in his heart. He was just playing anyway. If the league sent an invitation, he really didn't have to refuse.

"Hee hee, next question, I heard that you are in love, is it true?" Rachel got the answer she wanted, and started the next question with a smile.

"Well...it's my turn!"

The taste of the question suddenly became serious, and Yi Jianlian quickly retreated when he saw that the situation was not good.

Of course, the horse game on the field is indeed over. As the winner, Durant is already preparing to receive the award, and it is indeed time for Yi Jianlian to play.

Rachel didn't have time to stop it, so she could only ask the cameraman to save the tape just now.

"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

After Durant received the award and left the field, the cheers on the scene suddenly became louder. This made him feel a little uncomfortable when he left the field holding the trophy. I am also a champion after all, please respect me, okay?

"Easy easy easy easy!"

"Dwight, Dwight, Dwight!"

"Rudy, Rudy, Rudy!"

"Nate, Nate, Nate!"

It's a pity that the shouts of the audience proved everything. All they have been waiting for tonight is the slam dunk contest!
And now, the slam dunk contest is finally about to begin!

There were cheers one after another, and the on-site commentary first introduced the judges tonight—the judges of the slam dunk contest usually invite some famous people in the circle, such as some retired celebrities, or some celebrities who especially like the NBA.Sometimes, NBA officials will invite some people to be judges for some special gimmicks. For example, the five judges of the 07 Slam Dunk Contest are said to be stronger than the judges in the draft. That year, the league invited Jordan. , Kobe, Carter, Julius Erving and Wilkins...

Don't give players a chance to survive at all!
And the contestants still dare not question their own scores. If these five players say something, I will deduct it for you and you will know where the difference is. How embarrassing it is!

This can be regarded as an extreme of the official invitation of judges.

And this year's 5 judges are another extreme, basically they are not well-known.

Obviously, from the perspective of the league, the gimmick of Howard vs. Yi Jianlian is already enough, so there is no need to specially arrange some special people to be the judges to steal the limelight!
This is a very correct choice.From the cheers that greeted Rudy Gay, Nate Robinson, Dwight Howard and Yi Jianlian when they appeared on the stage, it can be heard that this year's slam dunk contest has made everyone full of expectations in terms of candidates.

Especially the appearance of Howard and Yi Jianlian, the cheers of the entire arena almost became a sea, and the on-site commentators couldn't hear what they were talking about.

　Today is Chapter 4, and the next step is today's tipping and updating.
