On February 20th, the All-Star Carnival, which had been in a hot atmosphere for a while, was finally about to usher in its first game day.

The champions of each event will be determined on the 20th. All-Star Three-Point Contest, Individual Skills Contest, Shooting Star and Slam Dunk Contest.

The four events will be decided in Stamp on the night of the 20th.

The league has already determined the list of players in each event, and compared with other events, there is no doubt that the slam dunk contest will be the most watched event in each All-Star in addition to the All-Star Game.

The reason is simple, dunks are the most exciting means of scoring. It is also the most important behavior to drive the atmosphere, rhythm and morale in the game. How has Griffin been so popular this season?

Naturally, in addition to the number of 20+10 amazing debut seasons, it is the various dunk shows that he constantly staging every game, such as flying dunks and people-changing dunks.

Dunks have always been the most popular offensive means in basketball.

Compared with other events, the four-person roster of this year's slam dunk contest is also highly watched. Because it's not just from Vince, who is known as a "half-human, half-god". Carter's parent team, Raptors, guard Demar. DeRozan, and the Thunder's blocker Sergi. Ibaka, as well as Javier, the IQ man of the Wizards. Mcgee. Of course, the most eye-catching is the big forward from the Clippers, this season's slam dunk maniac Blake. Griffin!

These four people are almost synonymous with the current violent deduction in the alliance. Especially Blake, who is in the same class as Wu Dawei. Griffin. There are countless fans who are fascinated by the violent dunks he staged in the game.

So, not long after the start of the season, after Griffin amazed the whole court, the call for him to participate in the slam dunk contest was particularly high, and in the end, Griffin accepted the invitation from the league. The announcement of participation in this year's Los Angeles All-Star Game slam dunk contest has made many people feel even more excited.

Even before the slam dunk contest began, most people believed that the winner of this season's slam dunk contest must be non-Blake. Griffin is the only one. Although there are other hot dunk masters, Griffin's popularity is combined with the power of a landlord. Make people believe that this championship is important for Blake. Griffin is definitely a sure thing.

Some even thought it would be better than in the early 2000's Vince. When Carter won the dunk championship, there was no suspense.

Such a statement made Wu Dawei a little scoffed, because in his opinion, it was undoubtedly a bit of a boast. But fans have always been emotional creatures, and you can't expect every word they say about basketball to be blurted out after a lot of deliberation.

This kind of person is usually called a brain-dead fan, and every star will have some such fan base, and these people are generally die-hard fans of the stars. Of course, the number usually depends on the personal influence of the stars.

It's like Kobe. Bryant.

Wu Dawei felt uncomfortable with some fans praising Griffin like this. And certainly not just because Griffin was the top pick in the same draft as him, in a sense. Sort of a direct competitor; It's also because Wu Dawei thinks that the slam dunk contest in early 2000 was the best in the league's history.

Because at that time, Vince. Carter, Tracy. McGrady, Steve. Many of the dunks by Francis and others are innovative, and the visual impact is not comparable to the repetition of the actions of their predecessors today.

After the first day of the All-Star Carnival, the formation of Wu Dawei was much easier on the second day. Although Ravlin arranged a lot of the pace of the interview for him, the time was relatively relaxed, and the reporters' questions may have been negotiated beforehand, and there were no too intense questions.

The most mentioned is to ask Wu Dawei how he felt about participating in the All-Star Game for the first time. And similar to LeBron. James, Cameron. The so-called "grudge" between these people in Anthony. did not appear.

This is also one of the few times when Wu Dawei is relatively leisurely, after finishing a few interviews during the day, Wu Dawei naturally came to the Stamp Center in the evening. As a participant in this year's All-Star Game, Wu Dawei can sit in the position before the exam and watch the game without buying a ticket.

This can be regarded as some kind of benefit on Cheng dù, but Michael, who came with Wu Dawei. Beasley was lucky to have that. In order to sit with Wu Dawei. From the time he walked into the arena to the time he finally sat in the chairs, Beasley had basically warmly greeted the league's top brass and their female relatives in the family.

"Do you know who I bet on to win today?"

Beasley wears a loose shirt. It looks hip-hop. Although this guy likes to call himself a hippie, he has never had a bit of this style, but he has a tendency to develop into street hooligans.

In Europe and the United States, the development of the betting industry has been extremely strong, basically all kinds of games before the start of a variety of bookmakers, for the game to open. A league like the NBA, which has gone global and has a certain influence, is naturally the object of more favor for bookmakers.

And the All-Star Game is undoubtedly the most popular event in the NBA league except for the playoffs. Naturally, such events quickly entered the bookmaker's sight, so whether it is a skill game such as the main game, the rookie game or the slam dunk contest, the bookmaker will open bets on this.

Europeans and Americans are also very keen on betting on sports events, because it allows them to enjoy exciting games and make a small profit. Why not?

Today, there are four competitions: the Slam Dunk Contest, the Three-Point Line Contest, the Skills Contest and the Shooting Star Contest, and naturally, the bookmaker has already opened the game before the game. And Michael, who has always been keen to dedicate himself to the cause of giving money. Beasley, naturally, is going to play a hand.

Beasley shook the receipt triumphantly. Seems confident about tonight's bet. Wu Dawei shook his head, and Beasley smiled and said, "I will win at least one of them tonight, do you know why?" ”

Wu Dawei still shook his head, but he was indeed a little curious about Beasley's confidence, Beasley saw the confusion on Wu Dawei's face, he smiled and said, "Because my brother bought Blake today. Griffin! Slam Dunk Contest, it must be this stupid big guy! ”

"Cut! Follow the Dog. ”

Wu Dawei took a sip of Beasley. He thought that this two hundred and five had some high opinions, but he didn't expect it to be the same as the clouds. However, Wu Dawei is also quite optimistic about Blake. Griffin's ......

The reason is simple, after all, the All-Star Game is a show that the NBA league gives back to fans. The purpose of holding an all-star carnival is to make the fans happy, and naturally it is necessary to make the fans happy.

Blake. As one of the hottest players in the league at the moment, Griffin's supporters must be countless, so Wu Dawei feels that as long as Griffin doesn't make a bad buckle, at least 90% of the time, he will win tonight.

"Hey. Don't think I'm really just following the trend! After Beasley was despised by Wu Dawei, he said anxiously: "I have analyzed. You see. The big black man on the Thunder team can only jump vertically, so I think he will only come to a few dunks and be done; The Raptors' Delazan is a hillbilly who has never seen the world, and I guess he should be out of shape tonight; At least McGee of the Wizards......"

Beasley laughed when he said this: "This guy's IQ is enough to knock him out......"

"You're all, everyone else is going to be out of shape tonight? How do you know that Griffin won't play out of sorts? ”

Wu Dawei despised Beasley more and more, and laughed at the IQ of other people's Big McKee with this thinking? I am also on this level......

"Hey, you need to know. That's Blake. Griffinye! I guess he'll come to a smash tonight, maybe there's still suspense!? ”

The argument between the two attracted the attention of bystanders. Beasley's statement was agreed by many fans around him, and then this guy stared at Wu Dawei with a disdainful look. As if to say that Wu Dawei is the one with the lowest IQ, he can't even see that Griffin will win the championship tonight.

Wu Dawei didn't pay any attention to Beasley anymore, because the first shooting star game had already begun. Although the slam dunk contest is the highlight of tonight, all four games have openings. Beasley naturally couldn't just buy one event in the slam dunk contest, and he also bet on the shooting star.

The four teams participating in this year's Shooting Stars are Los Angeles United, Texas United, Atlanta United, and Chicago United.

If the All-Star Game is all about entertainment. Then Shooting Stars is undoubtedly entertainment within entertainment.

So Beasley obviously shouldn't have bet on this event, as he bought Texas United, the last champion, but the final victory ended with Atlanta United leading by a large margin......

"! Nowitzki is also able to average 20 points per game with this shooting percentage? ”

It was dark when the door opened, much to Beasley's displeasure. David Wu knew Beasley had made a big bet tonight. Although it has not reached the terrifying point of tens of thousands, at least hundreds or even thousands, which is not a small number.

After the Shooting Star game, it was not long before moving on to the next game. Although the individual competitions do not take a long time, the four events together plus some performances in the middle still take a long time. Therefore, in order to make the live broadcast as much as possible within the specified time, and to make the schedule more compact, so that the fans will not be affected by a long delay.

The next skills contest is here.

If Blake. Griffin is the favorite in the slam dunk contest, so there is no doubt that in the trick game, the Hornets' Chris . Paul is the favorite in the tricks competition. Paul has even been dubbed the league's No. 1 point guard by many, and the recent trade rumors about him have been the focus of many people's attention.

Michael. Beasley's natural bet on this single was Chris. Paul was out though Stephen. Corey, Derek. Rose, John. Wall and Russell. Westbrook is a very outstanding representative of the new generation of point guards in the league. But there is no doubt that Chris, who has become a Mesozoic player. Paul, at the peak of his career.

When the skills match began, Beasley's frustration because of the previous loss was quickly swept away, as he said to David Wu that Chris. Paul is going to win back all the money he lost in the past!

But as soon as the game began, Beasley was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother. When Chris. After Paul came out, the leader of the Hornets team, from the beginning of the game was very smooth in all the skills, and the last one to appear was the least time of all the players in the game, just when everyone thought Paul would be crowned champion, in the final moments, Paul's layup kept him from even making it to the finals......

"! Dry! What is this! ”

Beasley was stunned by this last-minute counterattack, and then he went up to smoke, because he knew that he had lost money again, and was there anything more depressing in this world than losing money?

Of course there is, that is, one after another losing money, losing all the time......

In the end, in the Skills Challenge, it was the point guard from the Golden State Warriors, known as the cute god Stephen. Corey won the championship, but Beasley was completely out of the picture. Because he is full of calculations, all of them are the next three-point contest.

He told Wu Dawei that in this project, his confidence in guessing is second only to the slam dunk contest. Although Wu Dawei remembered that he said the same thing before, he understood very well that he couldn't be serious with a red-eyed person who lost now......

The three-point contest also came after the Skills Challenge. Of course, the list of entries is just as gorgeous, Kevin. Durant, Paul. Pierce, Ray. Allen, James. Jones.

There are big-name superstars and lesser-known role players, but now they all have one thing in common, and that is that they can shoot threes.

Beasley put the treasure on Ray Allen in this area, and the title of the No. 1 three-point shooter in history is indeed very bluffing, which is one of the reasons why Beasley can be full of confidence in this.

That's Ray. Allen, when it comes to three-pointers on the planet, then it's impossible to ignore such a name. But apparently, today even God is going to be right with Beasley......

Because the person who won the championship in the end was a nobody, at least compared to the previous superstars, James from the Miami Heat. Jones is undoubtedly a generalist. But such a general person defeated many stars tonight and won the cup in one fell swoop.

Looking at Jones who was full of energy on the podium, Beasley sitting on the field had completely lost his energy, he was very frustrated, so Wu Dawei was also a little unbearable, he looked at Beasley, and then said to him: "It seems that your luck is not very good tonight, why don't you give me your ticket, and let me pay for the last item." It's better than losing everything. ”
