One Thousand Seven Hundred and Fourteen. It's a Bit Difficult to Compete with This Guy for the Dunk Title!
If the NBA were to set up a four-point line, the most excited person might not be Curry, but Bosh...
The defending champions Bosh, Curry, Westbrook and Irving met in the Shooting Star Challenge. Bosh dominated the world and ended the preliminaries in 30 seconds, while the other teams took more than 1 minute to preliminarily. .
In the finals, although Westbrook's team scored in the first three shooting spots in more than 20 seconds, it took more than a minute to score from the center line. Then, it timed out and there was no score...
In other words, as long as the Bosh team scores all four goals within 90 seconds, it will directly win the championship.
When the Bosh team arrived, Bosh waited and waited at the center line for more than 40 seconds, and then hit the ball in the middle line. The Bosh team's time was fixed at 47 seconds.
Crush without any suspense!
In terms of shooting from the midline, Bosh reached the peak of his life.
Next is the skills challenge. The list of Beverley, Wall, Westbrook, Pierce, Thomas, Lowry, Jimmy Butler, and Payton is still very interesting.
Lillard originally signed up for all events, but he did not make the All-Stars this year. After complaining about the wrong selection, he quit the game angrily, and Payton, a rookie, took over.
Looking at the list of this year's Skills Challenge, they are all famous stars, and Payton, a rookie, is quite eye-catching.
This year's skills challenge has changed again. Four people are in groups and compete separately. The first place in the group is directly promoted, and the last place in the group is directly eliminated. Then the second and third place in the two groups compete again, and the four people decide the first place to advance. In the final, the three finalists faced off.
Occasionally, the school belle can change the rules, but as for the game itself, he, who has a doctorate in law from the University of Chicago, may not know that much. He may only know how to take advantage of the terms and how to make money.
It seems that this rule is much fairer, but it is not as good as just eight players taking turns to compete, with the top three advancing to the finals.
It's fair, but it's a lot longer than the simplest rules.
Such a skills challenge involving a group of popular stars should have been quite enjoyable, but Sun Ce felt it was too long and added a set of preliminaries for no apparent reason. Instead, it was given to the group stage for the first time. Players who did not perform so well in the game are looking for opportunities to form.
In the end, Beverly, who ranked third in Group B in the first preliminary round and ranked first in the second preliminary round, actually won the championship.
The result actually made Sun Ce very excited, and he went to celebrate by bumping chests with Beverly.
This year, Beverley's back line formed by the Celtics and Avery Bradley was extremely defensive, and there was also a high-ranked rookie substitute Smart. These three people made the Celtics back The court has become an iron pillar, and Beverley is indispensable for the Celtics' chance to reach the playoffs this year. He brought that iron-blooded temperament back to the Celtics.
Immediately following the three-point contest, the Grizzlies participated in double 3D, with Irving, Curry, Korver, Belinelli, Harden, and Matthews participating.
Lillard originally participated, but Lillard withdrew. The league chose Matthews to take over, and Matthews accepted.
But this is not important to Sun Ce. What is important is... He watched Klay Thompson and Paul George participate, and thought that Paul George also participated in the dunk contest, and Pierce participated in the previous skills challenge.
Someone else declined invitations to these events,
He was originally invited to participate in the skills challenge, but these teammates actually participated in so many competitions behind his back!
Curry performed extremely well in this three-point contest. He won the first place in the preliminaries with 26 points and advanced to the finals.
In the finals, he only missed 7 ordinary balls and hit all 9 flower balls! Won the championship with 27 points!
Klay Thompson performed terribly and was eliminated in the preliminaries with 9 points... Paul George entered the finals with 19 points, but only scored 22 points in the finals.
Harden went to keep company with Klay Thompson in the preliminaries. After Curry won the championship, he called Harden to celebrate together. Unexpectedly, Harden sighed: "Stephen, fortunately Noah did not participate this time, otherwise the two of us would None of them can win the championship.”
This made Curry so angry that he almost kicked Harden.
Fortunately, he held it back. Curry kept hinting to himself - this is a teammate, this is the strongest teammate, this is an MVP-level teammate...
Sun Ce was lucky that he didn't participate. He was really not very good at such shooting. In fact, it can be found that forward players are more likely to win championships, like Pierce and Love. People didn't expect them to win the championship back then. .
But one thing that many people overlook is that this kind of shooting is equivalent to a fixed-point shooting. Shooting by defenders is usually not a fixed-point shooting.
It seems that the top shooters on the back line win more three-point contest championships, but that is because there are fewer shooters on the forward line, and forward shooters rarely participate in this kind of competition.
From the perspective of winning rate, striker pitchers have a higher probability of winning than guard pitchers.
In the final dunk contest, Paul George, Antetokounmpo, LaVine, and Oladipo participated.
The reason why Antetokounmpo is said to play unlike Sun Ce is because Antetokounmpo's scoring is almost limited to close range and the free throw line. His athletic ability is mainly explosive power and explosive speed, while Sun Ce is a shooter.
People don’t think Sun Ce has bad jumping ability, they just think he doesn’t like to jump and play, because he has all kinds of amazing blocks, and they think he is limited by insufficient explosive confrontation, because there are many players with good jumping height, Conley and Curry are representative figures. Sun Ce also passed an unconfronted dunk to Curry in the All-Star Game last year, and the jump height was slightly higher than the dunk that Sun Ce passed to Harden.
But Curry’s dunk with confrontation... the basket hurts!
There is no suspense in this dunk contest. If it was ten years ago, when Jason Richardson, Richard Jefferson, Josh Smith, Howard, Nate Robinson and others participated, they might have won LaVine by playing tricks and creativity.
But Paul George, Antetokounmpo, Oladipo, three players who rely purely on physical fitness to dunk, are directly one level lower than LaVine in jumping!
It is worth mentioning that Carter was invited to participate as a judge of the dunk contest, which makes people smell a strong smell of insider information.
This dunk contest was not bad. LaVine's dunks were really pleasing to the eye. He easily dunked from the free throw line and slammed the ball with a 180-degree turn and a crotch-changing dunk with a light jump. He easily advanced to the finals with two full marks!
If LaVine was the first to dunk, he might not get full marks for both, but LaVine was the third to dunk. Compared with Antetokounmpo and Paul George... he got full marks directly!
Oladipo also had a full-mark dunk in the preliminaries, but he originally intended to use that dunk in the finals. It was just that after LaVine's dunk, the score of ordinary dunks would definitely not be high. Sure enough, Oladipo's second dunk was also okay, better than the previous dunks of Paul George and Antetokounmpo, but he only got 39 points and entered the finals with a score of 89 points.
In the finals, LaVine scored 94 points with two 47-point dunks. Carter, who was the special guest this year, was not so satisfied with LaVine's two dunks in the finals. He did not surprise him and only gave them 9 points. Dominique Wilkins and O'Neal agreed with Carter. No one is more authoritative than Carter in terms of dunks. Although the dunks were smooth, the difficulty... others could not complete them. No active player can dunk like LaVine. The only one who can compare with LaVine in jumping is Carter back then.
Michael Thompson and Grant Hill gave LaVine full marks for all four dunks.
Oladipo's dunks pale in comparison, scoring only 72 points, which is really far behind LaVine.
Looking at LaVine's dunks... Sun Ce was a little doubtful about his original idea - if he got the skill of "expressive", would he really participate in the dunk contest next year?
Sun Ce opened the event section and looked at the event of "Flying Man Inheritor". As long as the average number of dunks per game reaches 3 times in a season, the skill of "expressive" can be obtained.
If the number of dunks in a single season exceeds 255 times, breaking O'Neal's record of the number of dunks in a single season, you can get the S-level dunk bag Carter's dunk bag.
"Who cares? I have to try and try to get the Carter dunk bag. Next year, I will pay tribute to Carter... No, I will find a way to get more S-level dunk bags!"
...
Sun Ce had a good rest on the day of the triathlon. On February 19, the day of the All-Star Game arrived!
Roundtable meeting, visiting nursing homes in New York... The nursing home industry in the United States is really highly developed. After a few years, Sun Ce found that the most public service institutions in the United States, besides banks, are nursing homes.
The four All-Stars of the Grizzlies went to the event together.
At 5 pm, it was time to start preparing for the charity event.
This was attended by seven popular superstars, including Sun Ce, James, Kobe, Griffin, Rose, Duncan, and Curry. There was nothing to do. There was a process. The answers to the questions asked by the host had been checked long ago.
But when it came to answering, Sun Ce was unhappy. Stu Jackson, the vice president of the league, came and directed him alone...
Sun Ce was so angry. Didn't he need to manage the other people?
Listening to Stu Jackson repeatedly emphasizing that he should answer questions according to the script, Sun Ce asked: "Stu, are you discriminating against me?"
"NO, Lord! How could you think so!"
"Then why didn't you emphasize it to the others?"
"..."
Stu Jackson looked at Sun Ce, who was still so childish after playing in the NBA for so many years, and helplessly called the other six superstars who were laughing at the side and said: "Remember, don't talk nonsense, just answer according to the script. We don't need explosive points, your game is the explosive point. This event is very important and represents our image..."
Seeing that Sun Ce was finally satisfied, Stu Jackson recalled Kobe, the quasi-league No. 1 10 years ago, Jordan, the league's No. 1 20 years ago, and Magic, the league's No. 1 30 years ago... No one is like Sun Ce!
