One Thousand Nine Hundred and Fifty-Six. This Is Bullying!
As long as it's not an exam or being graded, everyone in the world loves to do reading comprehension, including players and fans.
As soon as Sun Ce said this, the players and fans who were watching the game on TV, computers, etc. all felt that Sun Ce was not just talking to the rookies.
Sun Ce is declaring war on all basketball players!
One of the most widely recognized ways of understanding is that Sun Ce feels that winning the championship is too easy and hopes that his opponents will work harder.
Another thing is - Sun Ce believes that he still has a long time before his peak. If he can't wait for the strongest opponent now, he hopes that young players will grow up to become his opponents quickly.
Even Jordan wouldn't be able to say this. At this age, Jordan was still beaten by the bad boy army.
But no one thought there was anything wrong with Sun Ce's words! At the age of 22, he has already won double MVPs and reached the top of the NBA! Although ESPN's "team superstar theory" was still very popular at that time, when people characterized a star, they only looked at the end, and relatively few people cared about the process.
People at the scene had different reactions. The fans just cheered. Sun Ce played well and spoke nicely...
The retired stars at the scene are nothing. What Sun Ce said has nothing to do with them. Even Magic Johnson, the candidate for the new general manager of the Lakers who came to the scene tonight, has little to do with him. He has long been surpassed by Jordan.
But the current players are different. Kobe took a sip, James thought about his miserable career, and Durant didn't care...
The rookies are excited!
After Sun Ce finished speaking, he let go of the microphone. The microphone fell to the floor with a bang, and everyone woke up.
Everyone watched Sun Ce walk back to his seat. After a while, the host announced that the players participating in the rookie game could start preparing, and the game was about to start.
Some first- and second-year players are excited, such as the two young fans of Porzingis and Brogdon; some are unhappy, such as Embiid; some are full of yearning and motivation, such as Jokic...
No matter what they think, all the first- and second-year players participating in the rookie game are full of desire for the game because of Sun Ce's words.
Players in the past were all targeting Jordan. Players at Jordan's time were all targeting Rick Barry, Julius Erving and others. Rick Barry and Julius Erving were all targeting the logo man and Chamberlain. Others are targeting... and the current players, no matter what the reason, are targeting Sun Ce, wanting to get close... or even surpass him!
A few years ago, everyone thought Jordan was unsurpassable, but Sun Ce did it and gave young players hope!
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the preparation time for the first- and second-year players was over. Paul George and Rose waved their hands. The two teams started to take the field, and the rookie game began.
Sun Ce was very satisfied as he watched the fierce confrontation in the rookie game. Back then, he, Curry and others first challenged the second-year players and then beat the rookies. They established the tradition of winning in the rookie game. Then NBA officials in order to let the rookie game The two sides are closer in strength, and the best first- and second-year players are adjusted to form the international team and the United States team respectively. As the international players become stronger and stronger, they have really succeeded in making the confrontation more intense. Now the rookies The gold content of the game MVP has been greatly increased. Sun is the only player in NBA history to win two rookie game MVPs, and the gold content of this honor has also been greatly increased.
made money!
Watching the game on the court, Sun Ce discovered that Brogdon's rookie season might be even better than he thought. After seeing Brogdon's performance, he discovered one thing. Those players who are not very athletic but have regular speed. Point guards who don't suffer in the NBA may be right to play in the NCAA for a few more years. Organizing a team's offense in the NCAA is really no easier than organizing an offense in the NBA, and it's even more difficult.
Because any player in the NBA can basically kill everyone in the NCAA. There is still a big difference between adult basketball and student basketball.
In terms of confrontation alone, there is a long way to go. For example, Lonely Great God and Adam Morrison were very good in the NCAA. After playing in the NBA for a few years, they stopped playing. From the beginning to their retirement, they were known as parallel imports. , it can even be said that organizing offense in the NBA is much easier than in the NCAA.
Although this kind of thing is not absolute, Brogdon, Nash, Stockton... and others have indeed pointed out a good path for point guards with weak athletic ability.
No, Russell of the US team, such an outstanding point guard, is not as good as Brogdon in organizing offense. Even if Russell is in his second year, he still does not have Brogdon as the core ball-handler in organizing offense. Time wise.
And because Brogdon can command the five All-Star players Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Aldridge, and Gobert in the Grizzlies, among the young players, there are some who can boast. When passing the ball is the main thing, his teammates are also willing to be commanded by him. The US team coach Rose is also willing to give him a chance. He admires the best player in the 16th class. Brogdon played 29 minutes and scored 12 points. An outstanding performance with 11 assists.
However, Brogdon is so good, but it has nothing to do with the rookie MVP.
The U.S. team in the past two years has really been unable to beat the World Team. Embiid, Porzingis, Jokic, the frontcourt composed of these three brothers, Sabonis on the bench, and Murray and Hield on the back line... …
152 to 145, the World Team defeated the US Team again, and Murray got 28 points!
Sun Ce was very crazy before the game. After the game, he came to the court with his understanding of "gentleness" and "encouragement" and a smile that made Murray feel cruel, and presented the "Lord Cup" to Murray.
When presenting the trophy, Sun Ce thought that he would compete for the All-Star MVP the day after tomorrow... His own head coach is the All-Star head coach, so he has to fight for it. Kobe has 5 All-Star MVPs, and he, Sun, must get at least 6. If James helps Kobe get one in the year he retires, he must get at least 7... This requirement is difficult enough. Anyway, as long as his head coach is an All-Star head coach, he has to fight for the MVP.
However, seeing that the MVP of the Rookie Game is called the "Lord Cup", Kobe's side is named the All-Star MVP trophy!
Because the player with the most MVPs in the Rookie Game is Sun, the Rookie Game MVP is called the "Lord Cup", and the All-Star MVP trophy the day after tomorrow is called the "Kobe Bryant Cup"... This name cannot be changed! The league will definitely not change the name because Sun has more All-Star MVPs than Kobe, because the trophy had no name before, and the All-Star MVP trophy was named after Kobe's 5 All-Star MVPs. These are two different situations.
And there is already a Rookie Game MVP trophy named after Sun's nickname. Even if there are still several trophies such as the Most Improved Player Award and the Best Defensive Player that have not been named, his nickname cannot be named for them.
It is said that the Most Improved Player Award trophy may be named the "Noah Cup", but Sun Ce really doesn't want to name this trophy himself, but as the winner of the Most Improved Player Award three times, Sun Ce estimates that the "naming rights" are secured.
"Overlord Cup"... There is no such thing as an overlord in the United States, it is just a lord.
Sun Ce feels that he has to come up with a new nickname.
But I gave myself a nickname... Isn't that learning from O'Neal? This is a bit difficult. New nickname... Thanos? Thinking of this, Sun Ce felt strange. Thanos is a new nickname in China. Although the movie Thanos has not been released in the United States, it has become popular before it is released. But in the United States, Thanos is called "Thanos". The name Thanos was first called in China. Disney officially renamed the Chinese name of "Thanos" to Thanos because this name is more in line with the character image than the English translation.
Thinking about it, Sun Ce thought that he would have to sing the theme song for the first part of the final chapter of the first phase of the Marvel Universe the day after tomorrow... Then his thoughts diverged further and further... He forgot what he was thinking at the beginning, and this matter just passed.
…
Sun Ce’s words before the All-Star Rookie Game admonishing young players to work hard became even more popular after the game. Murray played so well and overcame the problem of lack of confrontation when facing strong point guards like Russell and Brogdon. But not many people really cared after the game. Sun Ce only showed off in the Rookie Game.
Coincidentally, the next day, the triathlon competition day arrived.
This year’s triathlon has attracted a lot of attention!
After the All-Star starting lineup was announced, Sun Ce notified the league that he was going to participate in all the triathlons. Of course, the league had to agree to this. They were eager to revive the event immediately if Sun Ce wanted to participate in the Shooting Star Challenge and return it to the All-Star Weekend.
There is just one problem. I guess once the Shooting Star Challenge is reopened, whichever active player invites the retired Bosh to participate in the competition will have an 80% chance of winning the championship. As for why there is an 80% chance of winning the championship, it is because Bosh has not played in the game for about a year, and his hands may be a little rusty.
In the early stage of this season, Sun Ce was a little "quiet" compared to previous years, but in the middle stage when others began to decline, he went against the trend and soared. In the past 25 games, he had to give fans something different every year to add fuel to the fire... Whatever competition Sun Ce wants to participate in, it will be popular, even if it is to participate in the swimsuit model competition... I guess the female fans who used to despise the swimsuit model competition will run to grab tickets.
At least Sun Ce looks decent, and hard training has brought him a nearly perfect body shape and muscle lines.
Moreover, in this triathlon, except for the skill challenge, which Sun Ce wants to participate in, the three-point contest and the dunk contest have other exciting highlights for fans!
Three-point contest, Curry challenged Sun Ce after winning the championship last year! Sun Ce participated in the contest by invitation! In addition, four top three-point shooters, Klay Thompson, Lillard, Durant, and Bradley Beal, all agreed to participate before. Lillard withdrew directly because he did not enter the All-Star Game, but the league invited Nick Young, who averaged 2.8 three-pointers and 11.5 points per game after Curry left the Warriors, to participate.
This three-point contest lineup is unprecedentedly luxurious!
Curry averaged 4.4 three-pointers per game, Sun Ce averaged 3.6 three-pointers per game, Klay Thompson averaged 3.2 three-pointers per game, Lillard averaged 3.1 three-pointers per game, Durant averaged 2.6 three-pointers per game, and Bradley Beal averaged 3 three-pointers per game. Among them, Durant, who averaged the lowest three-pointers per game, had the opportunity to win the season's three-point king before Sun Ce and Curry played the small ball era.
In the dunk contest, LaVine and Aaron Gordon will participate. Sun Ce, who ran away after the regular competition in the preliminary round last year, will participate. DeAndre Jordan, Derrick Jones Jr., and Glenn Robinson III, three physically fit men, are invited to participate. This is not the end. What makes fans most excited is not Sun Ce's participation in this competition. Sun Ce's participation only makes fans more excited. The most exciting thing is that Carter will participate in the dunk contest again after 16 years!
To say that Carter dunks in the game... it's awesome if he succeeds, but he has never had many dunks in actual combat. Of course, most of the ones he has are highlights.
As he gets older, Carter turned 40 last month. It is basically impossible for him to dunk in confrontation, so his playing style is already that of an old man, and he rarely attacks with the ball.
But Carter occasionally records a video of dunking during training. Without confrontation, Carter can still hit the frame with his head when he jumps up. Of course, he needs to have enough physical strength.
And what kind of game has the most physical strength? Of course, it is a dunk contest without any confrontation, you can warm up as you want, and prepare as you want!
Carter is not a dunker without competition ability. On the contrary, he is very capable on the court. He has been selected for the second team. At his peak, he was undoubtedly one of the top ten players in the league and one of the six best guards in the world.
But Carter's most dazzling moment is still the dunk contest!
Such a three-event day is rare in the entire NBA history!
The participating players are also excited and are actively preparing. The participants of the skills challenge and the three-point contest all went to the New Orleans Arena to prepare. The two training grounds of this arena are the preparation venues arranged by the organizer Pelicans. However, except for Sun Ce, the participants of the dunk contest found a place to practice secretly, for fear of being known by others.
Carter must want to win the competition at this age. After all, he is called the greatest dunker in history and wants to keep this title.
LaVine wants to challenge Carter, and Aaron Gordon has always hoped to defeat LaVine.
Glenn Robinson III has better athletic ability than his father and has the idea of winning the championship. Derrick Jones Jr. and Jordan also have their own dunks that they think are excellent.
They certainly don't want their dunks to be known by others, in case someone dunks them in advance...
For example, LaVine and Aaron Gordon rented a training ground and asked the boss to seal all the windows. Aaron Gordon was fine, but LaVine thought more and more wrong after the dunk contest last year. Why is his dunk idea the same as Sun Ce's? Fortunately, he is prepared to participate in the dunk contest every year and has thought of many dunks.
Originally, LaVine would not be as defensive as a thief, but this year's dunk contest has Carter participating, and he wants to win very much!
As for Sun Ce, participating in the dunk contest is purely for the sake of participating, just a hobby. He pays more attention to the three-point contest than winning the championship. The other two are just interests. There is no need to hide the three-point training from others.
Sun Ce, Curry, Klay Thompson, and Bradley Beal train together, and the trainer has the easiest time. He just needs to stand under the basket to catch the ball, and doesn't have to run around.
The league can't film the players who find a place to prepare for the dunk contest, and every dunk in the dunk contest should be kept secret before the game. The league will not allow the media to film them, but the league allows the media to film the preparations for the skills challenge and the three-point contest.
There are also media that broadcast live through video software such as Kuaiyin and Shoushan. These four people train against each other in three-point shooting. Sun Ce made 92 of 100, Bradley Beal made 88 in a row, totaling 98 of 100, Curry made 91 in a row, totaling 97 of 100, and Klay Thompson made 94 in a row, totaling 99 of 100...
Sun Ce's 92 of 100 was actually the worst!
It's just that the training is different. Sun Ce shoots 20 times in each of the five positions, while the others practice one group for each point, 100 in each group. The other four shoot three-pointers from the sidelines, while Sun Ce didn't miss any shots from the bottom corners and top arcs on both sides, but he missed 8 shots from the 45-degree angles on both sides.
Everyone prepares differently. The live and recorded footage has made fans more excited about this three-point contest. Nick Young, who averaged 2.8 three-pointers in the last 30 games, and Durant, who averaged 2.6 three-pointers this season, are not considered the favorites to win the championship! The scene of this three-point contest is just missing Rondo or Wall to ease the atmosphere.
After a day of preparation, at 7pm, after warming up, Sun Ce and the participating players entered the court together...
...
In the New Orleans Arena, the air conditioning was turned on. There were too many people. If all the space in the New Orleans Arena was arranged, the basketball game could accommodate up to 58,000 spectators. If it was not arranged so tightly, there were still 48,000 seats. It was just the beginning of spring, and the chill of the South Coast had not yet faded, but the arena also needed air conditioning.
The key is that from 6:30, the model show began on the court. There was nothing else in New Orleans, but a lot of bikini girls. Before the hurricane, the swimsuit model competition was held here for 6 consecutive years, and it was moved to Miami after 2005. The All-Star Weekend was held in New Orleans, so swimsuit models were naturally indispensable. Unsurprisingly, looking at the big white legs and big white rabbits, the venue became hot all of a sudden.
There were many players who came to the scene to watch the triathlon today, both active and retired.
Duncan, Harden, and Nash sat together. Harden and Nash discussed some interesting topics. After teaching Antetokounmpo for two years, Nash went to the Warriors to be a technical consultant. He used to guide Harden in organizing offense, and now he guides Russell in organizing offense and three-point training.
Duncan maintained his arrogant and aristocratic temperament and did not participate in the discussion, but his eyes changed with the changes in the objects of Nash and Harden's discussion, and his eyes were full of admiration. These two people are the masters in this field. They have such a sharp vision that they can even tell what shape and taste they have, which makes Duncan admire them very much.
The pre-game performances of the three-event day of the New Orleans All-Star Weekend this year are all based on swimsuits. Even the invited singers performed in hot bikinis.
Sun Ce, who was waiting in the seats for the participating players, sighed that the people in the city really know how to play... It's a pity that their Grizzlies have too many resources because of him, Sun, in recent years, and their revenue has exceeded that of the Knicks. The Grizzlies also applied to host the All-Star Weekend, but failed to win the election.
Finally, at 7:40 in the evening, the pre-match performance ended, and the host began to introduce tonight's game. The fans at the scene were still not satisfied, but among the players in the next first competition, there was a person who made the fans, including male fans, more excited than the swimsuit models - Sun Ce.
When the host introduced Sun Ce, the cheers at the scene were even louder than the swimsuit models accidentally exposed at certain angles.
Sun Ce heard the roars of some female fans at the scene, and he felt strange about that posture. In the past two years, he found that many female fans were as excited to see him as watching a small movie...
Sun Ce, Embiid, Anthony Davis, Porzingis, Love, Lopez, Jokic, and Thomas, the eight participating players, appeared one after another during the host's introduction, and came to the court to dribble and prepare, and the staff were also arranging the facilities for the skills challenge.
The fans at the scene looked at the eight players on the court. When the league announced the final list of the skills challenge, the fans had already complained about it. Now they saw with their own eyes that there were seven tall players with a little Thomas... Sun Ce, who originally stood in the center position with Love, took the initiative to ask Thomas to stand in the middle, and stood behind Thomas, making Thomas the only center. Thomas was on the left with Love and on the right with Anthony Davis, like a concave character. The key is that there is Sun Ce behind him, which makes the contrast more obvious.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the skills challenge began.
Through the lottery, Thomas and Porzingis were in one group, and Sun Ce was assigned to a group with Love. These two groups are Group A; Jokic and Embiid were in one group, and Lopez and Anthony Davis were in one group. These two groups are Group B.
This year's competition system is an individual competition, that is, the winner of each group advances, and then the qualifiers in the group compete to determine the two players in the finals to compete for the championship.
This is relatively fairer than the previous group promotion system. There is no absolute fairness in any competition, and luck is also part of strength.
For example, Porzingis is now "heartbroken". He feels so miserable. He finally participated in the popular event with Sun Ce, but ended up being grouped with Thomas.
In this lineup, most people think that Thomas is the biggest favorite to win the championship. Sun Ce has good skills, better than Thomas, but from the perspective of body shape, everyone thinks that Thomas is the one with the best chance of winning among the 8 participating players.
However, after the first group, it was a surprise!
Porzingis completed the first round in 35.9 seconds, while Thomas, who may have been under too much pressure because his opponents were all tall, took 58 seconds to throw the ball in the last round in the first round.
Thomas's performance was not normal, which is not important. What is important is that Porzingis's ball handling is so beautiful! With a height of 2.2 meters, he dribbled like a small forward. Although he was very lucky and passed all at once, the speed of each round was not particularly fast, which was a bit of luck, but the basis for such luck was his stable dribbling, passing, and shooting!
Although many fans have heard of Porzingis's talent, and even mentioned him when bragging to other basketball fans, they may not have watched a single game of Porzingis. At most, they have watched the highlights, or even the highlights... Porzingis's basic skills are eye-catching!
On the court, Porzingis beat Thomas, which shocked Love - the spring of our big men is here! Kill all those point guards, and the championship of the Skills Challenge will belong to their big men!
Thinking of this, Love turned his head to look at Sun Ce who was already walking to the court to ask the referee for the ball and warm up. Suddenly, Love's ambitions suddenly stagnated... This guy is also a point guard...
When Sun Ce and Love came to the court and decided the order by playing finger-guessing, he saw the picture of Love, who was exposed to have reported 3 cm more height with shoes after joining the Nets, and Sun Ce standing side by side... Sun Ce even raised his head a little...
Love thought a lot. Tonight is the spring of big players. Taking Sun Ce as a reference, Love, who is only 188 cm barefoot, is so short that he will definitely lose such a game.
Sun Ce, who lost the finger-guessing game and played the first round first, played steadily and finished the game with a score of 33.1 seconds.
Love saw that Sun Ce did not ask for speed and steadily got a good score of 33.1 seconds. His mentality exploded. His height was suppressed and his skills were suppressed. How could he play? If this was a weight competition, he would definitely not be afraid of Sun Ce!
39.2 seconds, Love's performance was not bad, but he still lost, and Sun Ce easily advanced to the second round.
The first two groups were all crushing advantages. It was expected that Sun Ce crushed Love, and Thomas was crushed by Porzingis... This was indeed unexpected.
However, the next group is the highlight. Jokic, one of the most technically delicate centers in the league today, and Embiid, the hope of a very comprehensive American center, the matchup between these two is quite interesting.
Embiid won the finger-guessing game, and he chose to go first. In the first two rounds, he chose to go second after winning the finger-guessing game, but he lost, so he did the opposite.
31.2 seconds! Embiid's performance was very good. Embiid, who was fast, passed and shot at once, surpassed Sun Ce's previous best performance of 33.1 seconds tonight.
However, Jokic in the back was even better! 29.8 seconds, Jokic became the first contestant to break the 30-second mark in this year's skills challenge!
In the last round, Lopez faced off against Anthony Davis. It was probably the rule of the preliminary round of this skill challenge that only the taller one could win. Embiid and Jokic were the same height, so they broke the best performance of the night. However, Lopez and Anthony Davis performed very averagely. Lopez defeated Anthony Davis in 40.3 seconds with 42.4 seconds and advanced to the second round. The taller one once again defeated the shorter one.
Sun Ce, Porzingis, Jokic, and Lopez advanced to the semifinals!
Don’t say that the law of "the taller one must win" is true. After the first round, Sun Ce really felt it was weird and full of worries. In the second round, he was the shortest one!
Metaphysics... Worry is indeed right!
After a few minutes of rest, the semifinals began. Sun Ce and Porzingis were the first to play. The first round had a worse performance.
Porzingis performed better than in the first round. In 31.8 seconds, Porzingis finished the game!
Sun Ce was under a lot of pressure. Although he participated in this competition just for fun, since it was a competition, he wanted to win!
Sun Ce concentrated his attention and put himself into a state of concentration. He was very good at adjusting his mentality, putting himself in the best state and completing the game with the fastest action!
Sun Ce played again, and the fans at the scene spontaneously quieted down, trying to avoid disturbing Sun Ce's performance.
Anthony Davis, who was eliminated, saw the reaction of the fans, and his heart was bleeding... This is his home court! In the end, it was like Sun Ce's home court.
However, if this can make Sun Ce see this city more and have the idea of playing here... If Anthony Davis did not participate in the competition, he would want to go to the audience and shout along.
The fans quieted down, which helped Sun Ce a lot, and he entered the most focused state faster.
The referee blew the whistle to start the game. Sun Ce picked up the ball from the rack and rushed to the other side of the court. He accelerated to the fastest speed, rushed to the front court and dunked the ball into the basket. After landing, Sun Ce immediately turned around and rushed out, took the ball, and went from right to left, from left to right, then from right to left, and then from left to right. According to the rules, he bypassed 4 obstacles in a row and came to the center line. He pushed the ball into the jump circle smoothly with a chest pass and hit the target. Then he picked up the ball, hit the target again with a ground pass, and then grabbed the fourth ball, came to the free throw line in the designated shooting area, and hooked the ball while running... The fans saw Sun Ce running around the free throw line and hooking the ball in the process, and then immediately turned around and ran. As the picture of Sun Ce grabbing the fifth ball appeared, the ball that Sun Ce had just hooked went into the basket.
It is not important to make the shot. What is important is that after Sun Ce hooked the ball out, he went to get the fifth ball, ran to the four obstacles again, and then went around the obstacles from left to right, from right to left, from left to right, and from right to left, and returned to the top arc position outside the three-point line at the starting half court. This is the last link.
If the shot here goes in, it goes in. If it doesn't go in, you have to grab the rebound and shoot again. If the ball hits the floor, it can only bounce once. After the second bounce, you have to go back to the position where you got the fifth ball, run around the obstacle again and shoot again.
Everyone was very stable tonight. If there were any mistakes, they were almost all mistakes in the passing link. Except for Thomas, the other 7 players made one-shot hits in the three-point shots and free throw line shots in the preliminaries.
After reaching the top arc, Sun Ce adjusted for two seconds and pulled up a three-pointer... Very lucky, the shooting feel tonight was very good, and Sun Ce also made a one-shot hit in the top arc three-pointer!
The moment the ball fell into the basket, the technical table counted the time, 28.2 seconds, Sun Ce surpassed Jokic's 29.8 seconds, and refreshed the best score of this three-point contest!
28.2 seconds... Sun Ce looked at this result and breathed a sigh of relief. He defeated Porzingis and advanced to the finals!
However, there is a big difference between competition and training, and the psychological pressure is greater! Sun Ce felt that he had not yet played his best level. In this case where all the links were passed in one go, it took 28.2 seconds, which was indeed not the limit!
With the experience of one game, Sun Ce believed that he could perform better in the finals!
Amid the cheers of the fans on the scene, Sun Ce stood on the sidelines and did not sit back in his seat. The finals would be held in a few minutes.
Originally, he thought he was just going to play around and participate in the three events, but in this competition, his performance was better than he expected... This competition does not mean that good skills will definitely lead to good results. Paul's skills are also the best among point guards, but he participated in the competition four times, finished last twice, and only made it to the finals once. He was defeated by Deron in the finals, and Deron set the best record in the history of the Skills Challenge of 25.5 seconds, which has not been broken yet.
Nash has a score of 52 seconds, and Wade even finished last in the third year with 53 seconds after winning two consecutive championships in the first two years...
Sun Ce didn't think he could win the championship before, and he notified the league that he wanted to participate in all three events since he had to participate in two events.
But now it's the finals, and if he doesn't strive to win, he will be sorry for himself!
So, he has to observe the performance of Jokic and Lopez to see how likely he is to win.
After his performance in the first round, he tried to speed up the progress in the second round, and his results improved significantly. Others may also be able to do so.
Soon, another group of semi-finals began.
Lopez took the lead and performed well and stably, finishing the game in 38.8 seconds.
Then, Jokic came on the court and defeated Lopez in 29.7 seconds, advancing to the finals!
Sun Ce VS Jokic!
Looking at Jokic's performance, Sun Ce did not dare to be careless. Although he performed better than Jokic in the semifinals, this was based on no mistakes. Jokic did not make mistakes in the two rounds, and the same was true after speeding up.
However, he should not be too cautious. In the second round, he was able to refresh the best score tonight by decisively speeding up.
Therefore, stability is more important!
Sun Ce came to the ball rack, took a ball, and started dribbling to find the feeling. Jokic took the lead in the finals.
Jokic is also pitiful. The game ball stipulates that each position can have 5 turnover opportunities, so 5 balls are placed on the ball rack at each position. Sun Ce is obviously "bullying" the young player, but the referee ignores him and takes a ball and leaves. The referee just goes to the technical desk and takes a ball and puts it on... This is actually a trivial matter. The key is that when the host announced the start of the final and Jokic took the first game, there was a deafening booing at the scene!
He was booed in an All-Star game, and it was a skills challenge! This is the first time in the history of the three-event competition that Jokic has been booed. Even when Sun Ce was eliminated in the preliminaries of the three-point contest with 4 points, there was no such situation.
"Bullying!"
Jokic came to the starting position with anger. The referee felt sorry for Jokic and asked if Jokic was ready. After getting a response, the referee blew the whistle and the game began.
If you don't die in frustration, you will explode in frustration! Amid the boos of the fans, Jokic really exploded, even faster than in the semi-finals, and with good luck, he hit the three-pointer, which he is not good at, again with one shot, even though he made no mistakes in the previous mid-range shots and passes!
Three consecutive three-pointers are still quite rare in Jokic's games. He has a certain three-point ability, but it can only be used, not as a regular offensive means. This time, Jokic improved his best performance tonight by hitting the three-pointer, 29.1 seconds, breaking 30 seconds for two consecutive rounds!
This is really amazing!
Before, fans were amazed at Porzingis's basic skills. In the semi-finals and finals, although Jokic was booed as soon as he entered the finals, the fans were surprised to find that he seemed to be no worse than Porzingis and Embiid in terms of technology, and could even be compared with Anthony Davis! You know, Anthony Davis's flexibility and athleticism are better than most small forwards.
The pressure is on Sun Ce!
In order to cheer for Sun Ce, the fans at the scene immediately cheered and shouted "Qianpian" when Sun Ce walked onto the court.
In response, Jokic said it was up to him... what else could he do?
"Ladies and gentlemen, next, the final will be played by the strongest player in the world, our lord..."
With the host's passionate introduction, Sun Ce came to the starting point. The referee restored the balls at each position and came to the sidelines to ask Sun Ce if he was ready.
Sun Ce wanted to wait for the fans to cheer, but found that the fans were so naughty... In desperation, Sun Ce put his index finger in front of his mouth, and the fans at the scene quickly made a "hush" sound. At first, it was Sun Ce fans, and then it spread to all the fans in the audience.
Most of the people in the audience made the same silencing action and made the same sound. This scene made Kobe, Curry and others on the sidelines want to rush up and kill a pretender.
Finally, it was quiet. Sun Ce took a deep breath, adjusted his concentration, and nodded to the referee who had been waiting for a while. The referee nodded, blew the whistle, and the game began!
If he wins, he will take the championship to participate in the three-point contest. If he loses, he will still participate in the three-point contest... Sun Ce just thought about it carefully. Why should he feel pressured? Just try your best! He originally came to this event for fun, but he didn't expect to make it all the way to the finals, so he had a mentality of worrying about gains and losses.
But his strong will allowed him to adjust his thinking well. The moment the referee blew the whistle, Sun Ce quickly grabbed the ball and rushed to the front court, rushed across the court, took a step inside the free throw line, switched the ball to his left hand in the air, smashed the ball into the basket with one hand, turned around and accelerated after landing, grabbed the ball... Sun Ce didn't care whether there was a possibility of mistakes. He tried his best to complete every link and increased his speed to the fastest in the process!
Without psychological burden, without pressure, with the desire to win and the idea of losing, Sun Ce did not make mistakes while speeding up! After the first four links were completed, it took Sun Ce only 18.8 seconds to grab the ball for the fifth time to bypass the obstacle and come to the three-point line on the starting side!
At the top arc, Sun Ce grabbed the ball with one hand, adjusted it, did not dribble, and felt it. He pulled up and shot a three-pointer... When he shot, Sun Ce knew that the ball would definitely go in! He turned around immediately after landing, took it with his left hand and spread his thumb on the left side of the back of his head... As Sun Ce made a listening gesture, the ball plunged into the basket.
The scene, which had been quiet for more than 20 seconds, became lively again!
