"Deuce, deuce! There was a tie in the first round of the three-point contest! ”

Barkley shouted, his fat hand waving, looking very excited.

The audience didn't have time to laugh at the fat man, because they were getting high themselves!

"It's amazing."

Kenny Smith looked much more professional, echoing Barkley's shout, while reaching out to open the materials prepared before the game, and after a brief glance, he said: "The three-point contest has not had such a fierce first-round selection for several years. ”

"Last year's three-point contest was starry-studded, even more dazzling than this year, but the sharpshooters were all out of sorts, and in the end Dirk won the championship with a score of 18 points, which is definitely not a high score."

The 2006 All-Star Weekend was still fresh in my mind, when Dirk, Terry, Ray Allen, Arenas, Billups, Richardson and many other players competed.

It's a pity that these top stars are obviously more familiar with the kind of difficult shots on the court, but when it comes to the three-point contest where no one defends, they don't feel it. The preliminaries were a big surprise, with Ray Allen's 19 points being the highest, followed by Arenas and Dirk, both with 14 points.

In previous years, the sharpshooters had a poor record, and even in the 2002 All-Star Three-Point Contest Finals, Stojakovic won the championship with a skewful score of 9-5 (albeit in overtime), becoming the lowest number of points in the history of the Three-Point Contest.

After several years of sluggishness, this three-point contest has finally regained its glory, with four players scoring 20 points in the first round of preliminaries, which excites the fans, the commentators, and even the players who participate.

When was the last time there was such a pageant? You have to ask Steve Cole in 1997.

"Match, Match!"

With the shouts of the fat man, Dirk and Capono began the play-off, both at 20 points. The two will need to decide a winner to reach the final alongside Korver and Arenas.

"Whew, Whew, Whew"

One by one, the basketballs were thrown into the box, and Korver and Arenas were now sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, watching the two play with great interest.

At the end of the first round, Dirk scored 17 points, Kapono played steadily, and took away 19 points with a knife in his hand, and the German tank lost the chance to win the championship, but still hugged Kapono amicably and congratulated him.

For the fans. Although the three-point contest is mainly entertainment, it is also a stage for stars to show themselves. If it happens that the stars supported by the two fans are both participating in the three-point contest, it is bound to be a bit of a fight after the meeting, and fight over which is stronger and which is weaker.

And for the average player, such as a role player like Capono, the three-point contest is not only entertainment, but also a good opportunity to make a name for yourself. A three-point contest won't make them a core player, but it will go a long way toward the price of the next contract.

But for a superstar like Dirk. The three-point contest or something, the official invited, I came to play, and I was very happy to accidentally win a championship. It's nothing to be eliminated in the preliminaries, it's entertainment-oriented.

The height of the station is different, the goal of demand is also different, and the pursuit of human Dirk is MVP and championship. Three-point championship or something, it's just a cloud.

Looking at Dirk's indifferent but generous statement, Chen Mu was also imaginative. Not to mention Korver, if Chen Mu suddenly had a three-point shot at this time and was invited to participate in the three-point contest, with his understanding of himself, he would definitely fight and fight to win.

First, he is a victory maniac, which Chen Mu knows better than anyone. Second, for Chen Mu at this stage, the title of champion of the three-point contest is still attractive, and he will naturally compete with all his strength if he has the opportunity. If you lose, I'm afraid there is no way to be as breezy as Dirk.

"That's my biggest character flaw."

I know it in my heart, and I know how to complain about myself, but because of my personality, Chen Mu can't change it.

"Extremely hot preliminaries!"

Taking advantage of the short break before the start of the finals, Barkley shook his head and said again, opened his mouth and smiled: "Three god pitchers with more than 20 points, two fixed-point shooters and a superstar, haha, the game is good!" ”

After years of All-Star development, various competitions are full of tricks, and the three-point contest is limited by the core of its game, except for the details such as flower ball placement and score calculation, there is no change.

From Bird's arrogant "you guys fight for second" at the beginning of the competition, years have passed now, and the audience's enthusiasm for the competition has long waned. Who can win the championship, play geometry and other issues are not much of a concern, but this year, which big name will participate in the competition, has become the focus of everyone's concern.

The break is over and the finals begin.

The order of appearance in the final is reversed according to the score of the preliminary round, and Capono's 20 points are enough to rank high in any competition, but this time it is the lowest score, no way, the first to play.

“DoItMate！”

On the sidelines, Capono's teammate O'Neal kept shouting funny, causing the audience to laugh again and again, but Capono was not affected, and after coming on the court, he counted down and began to shoot.

Looking closely at Capono's shot, the following range of his left hand is larger, and the left hand also forms a forward opening movement when he shoots, and the hands seem to be blooming, which is not very good-looking.

However, its body posture is maintained very perfectly, there is little difference between the starting point and the landing point, the whole body maintains a high degree of uniformity, the power transmission is very symmetrical, the knee bending action is very small, and the whole body is tense but does not affect the softness of the shot, which is somewhat similar to many long-range shooting masters on the field.

“…… 15、16、17……”

The whole audience was counting, hitting three-pointers one by one, Capono did not change his face, the time was just right, and there was no waste at all.

When it came to the last point, Capono was even more firepower, hitting all of them one after another.

“…… 24！！！ ”

The score was fixed at 24 points, and the fans were stunned, how long has it been since there has been such a high score in the final of the three-point contest? Everyone looked at each other, and only reacted when the host shouted the score data a few seconds later, and cheered cheering.

“YES！ That’sMyCrew！ ”

O'Neill, who was on the sidelines, was naturally smiling, and came directly to the sidelines a few steps, reaching out to Cappano's little head and pushing it, causing laughter.

“That’sIt！”

Barkley naturally couldn't help but boast about himself, and kept talking about how accurate his vision was.

The 24 points in the final are a rare high-scoring performance in the history of the three-point contest, and the remaining Korver and Arenas are naturally under pressure.

However, the difference between the two preliminaries and 24 points is not too big, especially Arenas's 23 points, as long as they work harder, they can go further and win the trophy.

The second player on the field was Korver, who was second in points, and as soon as the young man came on the field, the female fans in the stadium were G...... was excited, couldn't stop cheering, and everyone was shouting wildly, cheering for the handsome guy.

At this time, Chen Mu noticed that among the three players who entered the final, Capono's appearance was ...... Arenas is slightly better, more domineering, after all, the aura is there, but it is not too handsome. Korver really stood out among the three, no wonder the female fans were so crazy.

“3、2、1、GO！”

At the end of the countdown, the game began, Korver held the ball, shot, landed, returned to the ball, shot again, the overall rhythm was smooth like silk, and Iguodala, who was not very reliable in his long shot, was jealous, and he couldn't help but sigh that talent is not only reflected in the universal sense of physical fitness, but also in various aspects such as hand feel.

One by one the basketballs entered the frame, and occasionally smashed out of the frame, all of which were very different, causing fans, especially female fans, to sigh.

In the bottom corner of the right side of the first point, Korver was on fire, shooting 4 of 5 and missing the color ball, scoring 4 points.

The second point, at a 45-degree angle, was Korver's sweet spot, and the score quickly rose to 10 points with all five shots.

"Come on, come on!"

Chen Mu and Iguodala are naturally the fiercest to shout, and the revolutionary friendship between Carney and Korver is not as deep as the Philadelphia Iron Triangle, but they are also big brothers on the same team, and the cheers are not ambiguous.

The third point, the top of the arc, which is also Korver's hot zone, is another 5-of-5 shot, and the fans have fallen into a frenzy.

"It's 16 minutes!"

Barkley was also dumbfounded, Kenny Smith waved his hand, and the staff immediately mobilized Korver's shooting heat zone map, and the rainbow-like hot map outside the three-point line made people's blood boil. You know, this is still a performance when the 76ers didn't have a strong heads-up hand to contain the defense and attract the pack, if there is a suitable team system to support it......

Everyone saw how accurate Korver was in the 2014-2015 season.

"The fourth point!"

At 45 degrees on the left side, Chen Mu, who is familiar with Korver's shooting hot zone, knows very well that this is a small weakness of Korver's outside shooting. Of course, as an all-weather shooter, even the weakest point is stronger than most pitchers, but compared to his shooting percentage in other positions, it is undoubtedly a cut off.

"When"

Sure enough, the first shot missed, and Korver's firepower of 10 consecutive shots was slightly curbed, and fans sighed lightly, regretting that they could not set a record for consecutive three-point shots.

Continue to shoot, Korver is really not so accurate at this point, plus two consecutive rounds of games, no matter how strong the pitcher will feel tired in such a fast-paced continuous shot, the third point Korver played "abnormal", the last 5 shots 3 hits, the color ball also failed to hit, "only" 3 points.

"19 points!"

Chen Mu was very nervous, Capono had previously thrown a super high score of 24 points, if Korver wanted to win the championship, the last point must be all in order to surpass, even if the bottom left corner is also Korver's hot zone, but this difficulty is self-evident.

In anticipation, Korver began to make a move. (To be continued......)
