Eight hundred and fortieth chapters met an opponent
February 15. Mixed shooting match - the shooting star begins first.
Xie Hou liked this game quite a bit. The participating team sent three players, one NBA active player, one NBA retired player and one WNBA player.
Such an arrangement reflects NBA's humanistic sentiment and political correctness of gender equality.
Xie Hou wondered why the Pacers never formed a team to participate in the competition? If he had the chance, he would definitely join in and have fun.
The retired player of the Detroit team was Bill Lanbill, the famous villain at that time.
Xie Hou has heard of this king's reputation a lot.
This year, it was also thanks to his performance that Detroit won the shooting star.
After the mixed shooting match, it will be the h-o-r-s-e challenge. Xie Hou originally wanted to sign up for this competition, but he had never played it before and did not know the specific rules. He was afraid of making jokes, so he chose to watch the game. If it was held next year, he might play it.
A total of three people participated.
Kevin Durant, OJ Mayo and Joe Johnson are all hot chickens today.
Durant also played in the Rookie Challenge yesterday, scoring 46 points for the sophomore team - a personal single-game scoring record in the history of the Rookie Challenge - he just set a record in history, participated in the All-Star Weekend event back to back.
The h-o-r-s-e challenge is a competition introduced this year's All-Star Weekend. The venue is outdoors. Since it is outdoors, Xie Hou watched the live broadcast through the TV in the hotel room.
The rule of h-o-r-s-e is that the first player chooses a point to shoot. If successful, the next player must shoot in the same position in the same position and must complete the action within 24 seconds. If the latter shoots, a letter "h" will be obtained, and so on. When a player gets the five letters "h-o-r-s-e", he will be eliminated. If the first player fails to shoot, the second player will choose the shooting point and shooting method.
As a senior, Joe Johnson came up and put some difficulty.
A throw shot from the free throw line with his back to the basket was made.
Durant, who was in the limelight in the rookie challenge yesterday, imitated and hit the rebound and burst into laughter.
Commentator Chris Webber said funnyly: "Does kd come here with his schoolbag today because he wants to get off work early?"
Mayo came with a large three-pointer in the auditorium and ignited the scene.
Johnson imitates it, three no-touch.
Such a low-level iron-shot happened repeatedly in this game.
Durant and Johnson received a "h" one after another. Then, it was Durant's turn to show his unique skills. He shot from a 45-degree angle close to the right side of the midfield position. Mayo imitated it, but he still didn't play with it.
Mayo continued to show his unique skills, paying tribute to Rick Barry, and hit a three-pointer with a piping action.
Johnson continued to stay away from the three.
After three consecutive non-touching, Johnson's gaming experience was defeated. Weber also led the audience to cheer. He was under too much pressure and the entertainment competition became a competitive event. In order to be safe, the shooting method chosen was relatively simple and he lost the initiative early. In the end, Durant and Mayo competed completely.
Durant's shots became easier and he found the touch of scoring 46 points in yesterday's game.
Standing outside the boundary, he scored two consecutive three-pointers, Mayo paid tribute to Johnson on the spot, and did not play for three consecutive times, and he got h-o-r-s-e and was eliminated.
Durant therefore became the winner of the first h-o-r-s-e challenge.
Xie Hou, who had watched the live broadcast, was a little puzzled and confused about this.
Johnson gave up too early, and Mayo was too outrageous for three times.
The game sounds interesting, but not that interesting, there are too many spectators, and they coax together, so the players can't perform as much as they want.
If you want to cast such a game to be viewed, those with great confidence must be allowed to participate.
For example, Jordan, Kobe, Bird and so on.
Especially Bird, he also filmed a classic h-o-r-s-e advertisement with Jordan back then.
In terms of the strange goal posture, these three people are also representatives of this.
As soon as the h-o-r-s-e challenge ended, Xie Hou began to prepare for the skills challenge that night.
There are many accidental factors in the Skills Challenge. No one can boast about Haikou before the game and say that they will definitely win the championship. Judging from the experience of the past few years, although the Skills Challenge appears to be competing for time (whoever speeds faster), in fact, the real key lies in the word "accurate" - whoever shoots correctly and whoever passes accurately, whoever can win.
Half an hour before the game, Xie Hou went to the scene to warm up.
Tonight, he is going to be a cautious person.
Since you have to be cautious, you have to do all the work you should do. If you fail to win the championship, there is no excuse to say.
When he arrived at the scene, he found that he was the only one here.
It seems that the other participants are not particularly concerned.
For this reason, he felt that his chances of winning increased a little.
Ten minutes before the game started, his opponents appeared one after another.
French sports car Parker, Pluto Harris, Mingzhou Rose... Each one has a very famous name.
Xie Hou approached Ross and asked, "How does it feel to be a teammate with Yi?"
Ross didn't expect Xie Hou to suddenly approach and ask a question, and he replied casually: "It's okay."
Although he had only met Ross a few times, looking at his words and deeds, Xie Hou knew that he was a bit different from the boredom of Tianyi.
Yi looked at a person who was not liked to talk and was still quite suspicious when he got along. Rose was purely bored.
"I will definitely win today's game." Xie Hou said suddenly.
Ross looked at him cautiously and said casually: "Okay."
Well, that's it?
OK? What does this mean?
After that, they had no communication. It was not that Xie Hou didn't want to communicate, but that Rose was too bored and could not communicate.
He wanted to communicate with Parker or Harris, but everyone was a match that had fought hard in the finals. Xie Hou had once used ruthless backs to them. At that time, he was determined to win, and his methods were a little more rude. Can they understand?
Xie Hou himself is not a generous person and does not expect the two of them to understand. Therefore, if he can't talk to Ross, no one can talk to him.
After the skills competition began, the atmosphere on the scene was noisy because of him.
In the preliminary round, Xie Hou was the first to play.
The booing at the Western American Arena made Xie Hou feel that he had returned to the finals, and fans held revenge far more than the players.
In order to calm them down, Xie Hou promised: "If I win the championship, I will randomly give the winning prize to the audience on site, provided that everyone can keep quiet."
After all, it was the All-Star weekend, so there was no need for fans to hold on to Xie Hou. He was still aware of the situation, so the fans stopped speaking out.
So Xie Hou started an unexpected preliminaries.
Dribbling over obstacles and no pressure.
When he passed the ball into the hole, he used one-handed pass to pierce the hole, and even held it in the shooting stage. In the final layup, he made a cool windmill dunk.
Preliminary results, 28 seconds.
This is his most confident state.
"It seems Arthur really has the hope to be the first person in league history to win the All-Star Weekend Grand Slam."
On-site commentator review.
"Let's see how champion Tony Parker performs!"
Parker was about to appear. Before he started, the commentator introduced his performance and participation experience.
In 2003, the NBA launched the Skills Challenge for the first time on the All-Star Weekend. Parker was fortunate to compete with Kidd, Payton and Marbury for honor. At that time, Parker was just a 20-year-old young man. He was amazingly fast, but his technical flaws were obvious, and his jump shot was very bad. His three opponents were all "old fryers" who had been in the league for many years.
As a result, Parker "lived down on expectations" and set the worst record in the event with a time of 45.5 seconds, and has not been broken so far.
Six years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the NBA has undergone tremendous changes. Kidd is old, Payton retreats, Marbury can't even play the ball, and 26-year-old Parker has long grown into one of the best point guards in the league.
This season, Parker averaged a career highs in scoring (20) and assists (6). His breakthrough was as sharp as six years ago, but his jump shot level improved by leaps and bounds.
After once again attacking this defender honor, Parker became the only "old qualification" among the four contestants - whether it is Devin Harris, Shehou, or Derek Ross, who is several years younger than him, they have only admired the game as spectators, and their experience cannot be compared with Parker.
"Speed will be Tony's secret weapon to shake off the others!"
As soon as the commentator finished speaking, Parker almost lost his basketball because he was too fast.
"Don't be nervous, my friend!" Xie Hou's trash talk interfered.
His presence influenced Parker's performance.
He wasted some time while dribbling through obstacles, and there was even a big problem with passing the ball into the hole.
Then, there was also a problem with the shooting - the champion's popular French sports car, and there was no problem with the final layup.
With the problems that had occurred before, he was very honored to have a mileage grief, personally set a record of the worst he set six years ago, and raised it to 51 seconds.
"Very good!" Xie Hou clapped his hands and was happy, happier than the New Year.
Then there is Harris.
Before the other person appeared, the commentator started to feed his milk again: "Devin Harris was once considered Tony's biggest competitor. He was regarded by Tony as one of the five fastest players in the league. Now that Tony is out, he is undoubtedly the biggest favorite to win the championship!"
Harris has been playing for the Mavericks. In the past few years, when the Mavericks and the Spurs fought in a dark and dark way, Harris caused a lot of trouble for Parker, and even became the "Spurs nemesis" to some extent.
But today is obviously a script that blows one dead and one dead.
Harris was in front of him and knelt at the shooting mark.
With three-pointers from the outside, he missed 4 consecutive shots, and the final result was 44 seconds.
This means that as long as Ross scores within 44 seconds in the preliminary round, he will join hands with Xie Hou to enter the finals.
No surprises in the end, Rose is also the descendant of the word "Standard" and the word "Standard" is the word "Standard" that is relying on the word "Standard" when he is performing. Judging from his performance, Xie Hou was completely stunned.
He obviously had a very fast express delivery, but he didn't show it.
He wasted at least 2 seconds of passing the obstacles.
Control the speed, but also have a good rhythm, and the passing process is completed in one go.
Three-pointers were not his strength, and his shot ended smoothly before.
In the final attack, he took a slam dunk, and the final result was: 30 seconds.
Compared to Harris and Parker, he was as stable as an old dog.
"I met an opponent..." Xie Hou wiped his cold sweat.
Chapter completed!
