NBA: Art is trash talk

Chapter 422 The Defending Slam Dunk Contest
After the fight with the Magic, the Clippers split into two groups.

The others returned to Los Angeles, He Xinghui, Gasol, Millsap, and Barkley flew to New Orleans.

He Xinghui Gasol was selected for the All-Star Game, and Millsap is still in the second grade, so he will participate in the rookie game.

As for Barkley, he is a special guest of the league.

A player who has retired for seven or eight years continues to compete for the championship in pursuit of his dream.

This story is also quite topical.

Barkley averaged 5.7 points per game this season, but his news volume is higher than most players who average more than ten points per game.

Came to New Orleans, Gasol to shoot commercials.

He Xinghui rested at the hotel.

This season, he no longer accepts commercials.

The previous endorsement is still in effect, but he has stopped accepting new endorsements.

No way, too much money.

If you continue to accept endorsements, the price will drop a bit.

On the 15th, the All-Star Game officially began.

Foreplay or Rookie Challenge.

The first-year starters are Mike Conley, El Thornton, Yi Jianlian, Durant, and Al Horford.

As for Oden, it was still the same as the original time and space, he was injured and reimbursed before the season started.

The man who became the emperor before this season was still disappointing after all.

Durant, though, came as a surprise.

In the second grade, there are Rajon Rondo, Roy, Morrison, Aldridge, and Bargnani.

Rondo, who was still unknown last season, has grown rapidly this season and is very likely to win the Most Improved Player Award.

No one else can compete with him.

Not only has his statistics soared, but the team's record is also good.

I have to say that it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree.

Because the script of the rookie challenge last season was not very successful, so this season they returned to the usual real play mode.

The competition was intense, but the crowd wasn't too pleased.

After watching He Xinghui's unique rookie game, the audience's tastes have changed too much.

This is the same reason that there will be no slam dunk contest after 2000. After watching Carter's slam dunk, and watching other dunks, the fans can't be satisfied.

Fortunately, in this time and space, He Xinghui turned out to save the dunk.

This season, the league actually invited Carter to participate in the slam dunk contest, wanting to stir up the topic of the strongest slam dunk king duel.

Unfortunately, Carter did not accept the invitation.

He was cowardly.

His physical fitness is not as good as before, and his creativity is also inferior to He Xinghui.

Since it is a duel that must be lost, it must not be accepted.

As long as they don't compete on the same stage together, others can't say that He Xinghui's dunk is better than him.

James also received the invitation, but James also backed down.

Big-name stars will not easily confront He Xinghui, that is, the simple-minded Howard continued to sign up for the slam dunk contest for fun.

The other two are also no-names, Jeff Green and Nate Robinson.

In this slam dunk contest, they are destined to run with them again.

The rookie challenge was very intense, and the second grade won in the end.

Aldridge won the Rookie Challenge MVP.

Aldridge has also grown a lot this season, and Roy gave Aldridge many opportunities in this game.

After the rookie game, there was a skills challenge, and Deron Williams won the first place.

It is a pity that the attention of this project is very low.

Then came the three-point contest.

The contestants are Nowitzki, Kapono, Jones, Barbosa.

Nuo Tianwang doesn't know what's going on, he likes the three-point contest very much, and has participated in it three times in a row.

Without He Xinghui, this three-point contest has become an incomparably 'traditional'.

It is to catch the ball, shoot, and win more than anyone else.

Don't count on tricks like blindfolding.

After watching He Xinghui's three-point contest, the audience is also dull when watching this kind of three-point contest.

This situation worried Stern very much.

He found that the league seems to be inseparable from He Xinghui. Once He Xinghui retires, the league's ratings may be hit hard.

What worries him the most is that He Xinghui seems to have no plans to become a long-term professional player.

Kapono won the three-point contest.

This unguarded spot-up shot is his forte.

It's a pity that his confrontation is too poor, and his shooting percentage drops greatly in actual games.

Therefore, even if he won the three-point contest, other teams would not offer him a high salary.

After the three-point contest, the atmosphere at the scene finally became lively.

Because the next one is the slam dunk contest, He Xinghui will participate.

Last year's slam dunk contest amazed countless fans, and they are very much looking forward to He Xinghui's surprises for fans this time.

The game has not yet started, and the on-site host is accepting the participating players.

The commentary of the live broadcast is just chatting.

"Kenny, do you think my cousin still has tricks this time?"

asked Mike Brin.

"of course."

Smith was pretty sure.

"I don't think so. After all, he has used a lot of amazing ideas last time. A person's creativity cannot be endless."

Mike Breen said.

The two chatted first, and the match on the spot had already begun.

It was Nate Robinson who played first, and this guy continued to use his height to call for sympathy and made an unremarkable move.

Fans don't know what to say.

Fortunately, everyone didn't come to see him.

Then came Jeff Green, who performed a 180-degree dunk with a crotch switch.

This action is not good enough to watch, but the difficulty is not high.

At least, it was far behind He Xinghui's movements.

Therefore, he only scored 41 points.

Nate Robinson was even worse, with only a poor 35 points.

After the two of them, Howard came out.

Howard scored 44 points.

In fact, his moves are definitely not worth 44 points.

The judges gave so much, mainly because Howard is famous.

Many smart people have noticed that the league wants to support Howard.

It is estimated that they hope to have a local player to fight against He Xinghui.

It's just that Howard is still far behind, and it is impossible to pose a threat to He Xinghui's popularity.

After the three of them dunked, He Xinghui came out.

There were deafening cheers at the scene.

They came to see He Xinghui tonight, as for the others, by the way.

He Xinghui waved to everyone, and then started his performance.

He invited 7 people in one go.

There are teammates Barkley, celebrity friends, and lucky spectators at the scene.

Seven people stood in a row under the basket from high to low, and the short ones were closer to the basket.

He Xinghui is going to leap seven people to dunk at once.

This scene is scary at first glance, but it feels very difficult.

But in fact, the difficulty is all concentrated on the first person in Feiyue.

As long as they can fly past Barkley standing at the front, the people behind will have no effect.

It's a pity that the audience doesn't know the trick.

When they saw 7 people, they covered their mouths in surprise.

"Oh my god, it's so hard that my cousin wants to jump over 7 people and dunk at once?"

Smith opened his mouth.

"How is this possible, how is this possible, it's too dangerous."

Mike Breen is also cooperating to make program effects.

"I can't believe it, I can't believe it."

"Oh, I dare not open my eyes."

"God bless my cousin, he will succeed."

In the astonishment of the audience, He Xinghui started a run-up, and then took a sharp jump inside the free throw line.

This jump flew so high that when it flew over Barkley's head, it didn't make any contact with Barkley.

After rising to the highest point, He Xinghui began to descend, and his body glides towards the basket.

In the end, he dunked the ball into the basket.

During the whole process, he didn't even touch the people who acted as obstacles under the basket.

This movement may seem dangerous, but it is actually of average difficulty, as long as you have good psychological quality and excellent jumping ability.

Full marks.

Without O'Neill making trouble, the judges unanimously gave full marks.

As for what to do if He Xinghui's later performance was more exciting, they didn't think about it.

Seeing He Xinghui's astonishing leap, Robinson and the others shrugged on the sidelines.

They knew that they were going to run with them again this time.

They guessed right.

Nate Robinson's second penalty was even lower at 34 points.

Then Green's action scored 39 points.

In fact, his movement is already very good, slightly better than the first dunk.

However, after seeing He Xinghui's creativity, the judges' scoring criteria became more stringent.

Then Howard came on the stage, and he performed a dunk with a crotch change.

This is a very ordinary dunk, but for Howard's height and size, it is still quite difficult.

And he came to perform this action, which is also good to watch.

In the end, Howard scored 42 points and secured a place in the final.

He Xinghui was still the last to play, and his second dunk was a three-ball dunk.

This is McGee's action, quite imaginative.

He Xinghui invited Barkley, and then he sprinted with two balls in his arms.

Barkley tossed the ball up as he rushed to the basket.

He Xinghui dunked the ball in his hands in turn, then caught Barkley's pass in the air and dunked the ball into the basket.

This action shows his ability to stay in the air.

When he dunked the first two balls, the whole person had already fallen for some time.

In this case, he can still adjust his body in the air, grab the basketball and complete the lob dunk.

In contrast, He Xinghui was farther from the basket than McGee when he took off, so his movements are more enjoyable.

When He Xinghui completed the dunk, countless cheers erupted on the scene again.

Admittedly, this action is slightly inferior to last year's.

But it's much better than Howard's.

47 points, this is He Xinghui's second dunk.

"Xie Te, this dunk is actually not fifty points?"

"Are those judges pretending to be shit?"

"Fack, those judges should really let those judges go up and perform one."

In front of the TV, many star fans were dissatisfied with this score and felt that it was less.

In their opinion, He Xinghui deserved full marks for this ball.

At the end of the first round, Robinson and Green were eliminated, and He Xinghui and Howard entered the finals to compete for the dunk king.

Of course, everyone knows that Howard is actually running with him.

For the first dunk in the final, Howard played first.

He performed the tomahawk chop.

It's the kind of action that many players make in the game.

No way, in terms of dunking, Howard's strength and creativity are very limited.

40 points.

The judges did not embarrass Howard.

Afterwards, He Xinghui appeared on the stage.

Also featured was Kendall Jenner.

Last year, He Xinghui dunked Jenna while holding Jenna, which made Jenna famous.

This year, Jenna was pissed off again, brazenly begging for a chance to show her face.

In desperation, He Xinghui could only practice a dunk with her.

This time, instead of hugging, I carried it on my back.

Moreover, in addition to He Xinghui having a basketball in his hand, Jenna also has a basketball in his hand.

They want to deduct two at a time.

When Jenna came out, the audience erupted in exclamation.

"It's this lucky little girl again."

"It seems that my cousin has a very good relationship with the Kardashian family."

"I heard that Kohler Kardashian chased after her cousin, but was rejected by her cousin."

Rumors and gossip spread, but He Xinghui and Jenna still started performing.

Jenna put one arm around He Xinghui's neck, and held a small basketball in the other.

Even the big ones can't catch her.

He Xinghui took off with a slow run-up.

He was afraid that Jenna would fall if his back was unstable, so his speed was very slow and his movements were relatively light.

The height of the jump is also much lower than usual.

Jenna first poured the basketball in her hand into the basket, and then He Xinghui also dunked the ball in her hand into the basket.

To be honest, this action is very ordinary to watch.

However, this action is gimmick enough.

It is impossible for other players to think of this kind of action, and even if they think of it, they can't do it.

Don't look at the mediocre viewing of this action, but it is actually extremely difficult.

After Jenna landed, she hugged He Xinghui and kissed him regardless of 21 or [-].

Fortunately, fans in China don't know Jenna's age, otherwise I'm afraid they will call a beast.

Jenna has a big ball and is well developed, making her look like an adult at first glance.

However, many fans in the United States know that Jenna is only 14 years old.

However, they just smiled.

It's just a kiss, maybe the little girl is excited, or something.

In short, except for some people with ulterior motives, most people just eat melons and watch the show, and don't worry about it.

As for some people who want to make a fuss about this matter, He Xinghui doesn't care.

His tens of billions of wealth is not for viewing.

If others want to mess with him, they have to weigh their own weight first.

48 points.

The judges gave the score.

Similarly, star fans are dissatisfied as usual.

The show continues.

Howard came to his well-prepared dunk, put on the Superman suit, and then came out of the phone booth to dunk.

The action is really ordinary, and the creativity is actually very ordinary.

It's just that Superman is a feeling for North Americans.

In short, Howard also scored a high score of 45 for this dunk.

In theory, he still has a chance.

As long as He Xinghui played abnormally in the last dunk.

Unfortunately, star fans who hoped this would happen are doomed to be disappointed.

He Xinghui's last dunk was a 360-degree dunk in the air from the free throw line.

This action is difficult and entertaining enough.

The moment he finished landing, the fans at the scene directly opened their voices to the maximum.

All kinds of slogans seemed to warn the judges that they would rebel if they didn't give full marks.

50 points.

The judges did not disappoint and gave full marks.

In the end, He Xinghui successfully defended his title with a total score of 98.
