NBA: Sharks at the peak, guard the basket!

Chapter 347 UFO Carter's full-score dunk show, Jordan blackened into a 9-point man! !
If he encounters such a disparity in points in the future, Xiaopao also feels that he will only win the opponent by 58 points, not lose to the opponent by 58 points!
At the end of the Rookie Challenge, Lin Hong won the MVP trophy of the Rookie Challenge without any suspense, becoming the first player in NBA history to win the MVP of the Rookie Challenge.

of course.

This is also because the NBA rookie game was restructured this year, and Lin Hong, the promoter, became the first lucky one to eat crabs.

Before Lin this year, there was no such thing as a second-year rookie participating in the Rookie Challenge for the second time.

It can only be said that Lin Hong has caught up, and he is full of resentment against a certain wolf in Minnesota.

If it should have been a year earlier, maybe he could have won the rookie game MVP and become the first player in history.

It is rare that he does not become the first person in history.

February 2th, US time.

It's still Madison Square Garden in New York.

After the rookie challenge, the much-anticipated individual events came as scheduled.

Today's attendance rate is obviously one level higher than yesterday's Rookie Challenge.

Facts have proved that even the restructured Rookie Challenge has greatly improved the originally sluggish ratings.

But want to challenge the hot individual competition.

In particular, it is still impossible for Lin Hong to participate in the individual event.

"Today, Lin Hong will hit the second slam dunk trophy in his career!"

As the game time approached, Albert on the sidelines also began to warm up:

"Explain, I don't disrespect the rest of the contestants, just because their opponent is Lin Hong!"

"As long as Lin Hong participated in the competition, he seems to have never lost!
No way, it's just so powerful! ! "

As Albert introduced.

From the NCAA period.

As long as Lin Hong participated in the competition, he has never lost.

The same is true after entering the NBA.

Therefore, Albert is really not disrespecting Lin Hong's opponent, he is really just stating the facts.

Want to beat Lin Hong?

How many dishes!

Maybe in a dream.

"To be honest, I'm actually here to compete for second place today."

It was Stackhouse who really made the show explode.

This big boy, who was severely beaten by his senior, Qiao Gang, has matured a lot, and directly stated that he is the No.2 strong contender in today's slam dunk contest!
Why not a strong contender for No.1?
Because of No.1, it has already been reserved by Lin Hong!

Who among the remaining participating players can take second place?

This is the real suspense of this dunk contest!

It has to be said that Stackhouse has grown up completely, and he clearly knows that he is here for second!

I have to say that children who have been severely beaten by the society are indeed quite transparent.

At least in terms of self-knowledge, he was very sure about it.

Of course, some people don't think so.

For example, Carter and Cousin McGrady, who just played against Lin Hong yesterday.

They are running for the championship today!
In the tough talk session before the game, Carter confidently gave Lin Hong a challenge.

It's true that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. This courage and guts alone are worthy of admiration.

The slam dunk contest is about to begin, and the judges sit neatly by the center line.

This year's slam dunk contest, just the luxurious lineup on the judges' bench, has already made the fans faint with excitement.

Iceman George Gervin, WNBA legend Cynthia Cooper, Rick Barry, smiling assassin Isiah Thomas.

Iceman George Gervin - the originator of the swingman and the grandfather of the fingertip ball.

Cynthia Cooper—nicknamed "Female Jordan", if you can call Jordan a ruthless person, you know how extraordinary she is! !

Rick Barry--Warriors legend, pioneer of point forwards, unique "piss pot" free throw posture.

Isiah Thomas - the smiling assassin, the leader of the bad boy army, Jordan's number one enemy, and one of the biggest villains in the NBA.

Without much introduction, the four are all famous and famous stars in NBA history.

The last one is Michael Jordan in the airborne referee seat - before the finals of last season, the man who was called the god of basketball by the fans!
Gang Leader Qiao attended today as a judge. Although it was officially announced by the NBA a long time ago, when he appeared on the stage, there was thunderous applause and was sought after by thousands of people.

Just sitting in the referee's seat, the ratings of the show rose as if visible to the naked eye.

Only then did the NBA executives realize: How much traffic does Jordan have on him!

Obviously, the enthusiasm brought about by Jordan's participation in the dunk contest as a judge is considerable.

Of course, the protagonist of today's slam dunk contest is not destined to be Jordan, who is pointing the country as a referee.

It was last season's slam dunk contest champion——Lin Hong!

"I don't know how much Lin Hong has a chance of winning in the face of the Kamai brothers who are starting to be aggressive!"

"It doesn't matter. In fact, what I really care about is not even the championship of the slam dunk contest, but whether Lin Hong's slam dunk action, which has never been seen before, can blow me up!"

"It makes sense. I'm also looking forward to whether Lin Hong's move today will be successful!"

As soon as the judges of the slam dunk contest sat down, the fans on the sidelines had already exploded and started talking about it.

What is the unprecedented dunk that Kobe is talking about?
Who will get the first perfect score from tough referee Michael Jordan?
Is it Carter?
Or Maddie?
Or the big devil Lin Hong? !
"Michael, I didn't expect you to be the judge of the slam dunk contest."

Slam dunk contest judges.

Smiling Assassin Thomas joked with Joe's gang leader beside him with a smile: "Actually, I think you are more suitable as a contestant."

"Come on, brother, just let me go."

Jordan shook his head: "To be honest, if I were ten years younger, I would definitely compete with these young people."

"But, I'm 35 now."

Leader Joe is not joking.

If I wasn't too old, I wouldn't be able to fly very much.

Otherwise, with his strong competitive spirit and desire to win, he would have to compete with the three young men like McCullin.

pity.

Time is a butcher's knife, no matter how old you are, you can't do it! !

But from another perspective, watching these young people fight each other as a judge seems to be quite cool.

It is worth mentioning that.

Because there are really not many people who dare to challenge Lin Hong in the dunk contest.

the reason is simple.

The first is the exhaustion of creativity. All dunks were basically dunked by Jordan and Wilkins.

Secondly, the star who has been famous for a long time no longer needs to prove himself on the stage of the slam dunk contest. After all, it would be embarrassing to lose.

For the biggest names in the league, being ridiculed for their poor performance in the slam dunk contest is not worth the candle.

Therefore, the number of participating players this year is only four.

In addition to the three of McCullin, there is also Jordan's younger brother who is not afraid of death-Stackhouse.

Stackhouse is just here to catch the heat this year, so he looks familiar.

The first to appear in the preliminaries was Stackhouse.

Due to the decrease in the number of contestants, the rules of this year's slam dunk contest have also undergone minor changes.

It's no longer last year. In the preliminaries, each player deducted three goals and scored them uniformly.

The rules of this year's preliminaries have been changed to

Each player has two rounds of slam dunk opportunities, and each round of slam dunks is scored separately.

The top two teams with the total score of two dunks in the preliminaries will advance to the finals to compete for the final championship.

Stackhouse's first dunk in the preliminaries used a one-handed 360-degree flying dunk that took off from the flank.

Unfortunately, Stackhouse's first dunk was missed.

However, each player has three chances per round.

Stackhouse made the second attempt and still failed to dunk.

The first two attempts all failed, and Stackhouse simply did not challenge the high difficulty.

He threw the ball at the center line, ran quickly, bent his legs slightly, and jumped up like a spring, catching the moon in the air, and dunking with one hand.

I have to say that Stackhouse still has two brushes.

His posture of leaping in the air is still quite stretched and elegant, and the visual impact is also quite good.

"Appreciate~"

There were instant boos at the scene.

This is Madison, New York!
Not a rural town like Cleveland!
With Stackhouse's performance, is he ashamed to participate in the battle of the gods?
Who doesn't boo boo? !

Amidst the boos all over the sky, Stackhouse only scored five 8 points for this dunk.

Actually not bad, got 40 points, but basically missed the final.

The second appearance in the preliminaries was Tracy McGrady.

McGrady's first deduction in the preliminaries chose to throw and dunk.

Throwing the basketball high, McGrady quickly started a run-up, stepped on the sideline of the three-second zone, jumped high, grabbed the ball and pulled it to his crotch, then pulled it over his head again, and dunked his back into the basket.

A success!
"Ooh!"

The fans at the scene were obviously shocked by the silky texture of the dunk.

To be human is to be afraid of comparison.

After seeing Stackhouse's slam dunk performance, expectations naturally dropped a lot.

After seeing Tracy McGrady's elegant dunk like walking in the garden, the fans rushed to shout and cheer, which is naturally understandable

At the judging panel, Jordan smiled slightly.

As the saying goes, the layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

McGrady's ball is indeed stretched and unrestrained, but the difficulty is actually that.

The first three judges gave 9 points respectively.

Smiling Assassin and Jordan respectively gave 8 points.

"Michael, this is the kid you specially trained!!"

After the smiling assassin finished scoring, he shrugged jokingly: "It's not that bad either."

"Don't worry, look back, Tracy is not that simple!"

Jordan smiled noncommittally, and a flash of light flashed across his face.

In his opinion, McGrady's dunk is indeed a little ordinary, and it is only a warm-up level.

However, in a slam dunk contest of this level, it is indeed a bit bold to choose the first dunk in the preliminaries to warm up.

I hope McGrady can surprise him with the next dunk.

However, it was not McGrady who surprised Jordan first, but McGrady's cousin Vince Carter.

It's the third UFO to appear - Vince Carter!

Carter's first deduction in the preliminaries went directly to the difficulty!
Walking through the midfield with the ball in one hand, pursing his lips, he walked towards the basket, probably because he had an estimate of the distance in his heart, and then walked back to the midfield again, raising his arms, 45 degrees to the right, ready to go.

He started dribbling and advancing from beyond the three-point line like a stroller!
The camera gave the expectant eyes to the cousin McGrady and Stackhouse who came to the sidelines at the right time.

Under the watchful eyes of the fans, Carter dribbled the ball three times in a big stride, jumped up suddenly, turned 360 degrees in the air, connected with the big windmill, and bombed the basket.

After landing perfectly, Carter bounced twice on the ground like a spring, and walked towards the sidelines expressionlessly, as if the buckle was not difficult.

"Ooh!!"

Carter's chic and elegant dunk directly amazed everyone, and instantly stunned the fans who were close to the court.

Even a few judges on the referee's seat exclaimed in surprise under the close-up zoomed in by the live camera.

Even Jordan, who supported his younger brother McGrady, nodded again and again at this time, his mouth pouted into an exaggerated O shape.

To achieve this level of effect, in addition to the outrageous flying height, it is also necessary to integrate movement and strength!
In fact, if you want to achieve good results in the slam dunk contest, you must either be tall, or far, or difficult, or have novel moves.

Just like Lin Hong's various dunks last year, it was a challenge.

Of course, those dunks from the free throw line are far enough.

And Carter's first deduction in today's preliminaries was to challenge the height.

Use absolute height to show your strength and beauty of movement at the same time.

This buckle scored a perfect score of 10 in the hands of the Iceman.

After Jordan was pleasantly surprised, reason overcame impulse and gave UFO a 9.

Dare to perfectly show your jumping height and strength in the slam dunk contest, it is really amazing.

In the end, Carter scored a high score of 49 points.

Except for Jordan, the other four judges gave Carter full marks.

"Do you want to use height to win..."

Lin Hong, who was the last to appear on stage, looked at Carter's back thoughtfully.

If it is said to use height to win, Lin Hong really has a simpler and rougher move.

Thinking of this, Lin Hong went directly to the staff on standby and explained a few words.

"Lin, are you sure?"

After hearing Lin Hong's words, the staff at the scene couldn't help swallowing, unable to let go for a long time, their eyes were full of shock.

Good guy, this is the first time they have heard such an outrageous request!
"Do as I say, can it be done?" Lin Hong smiled and clapped his hands.

If you want to defeat the UFO Carter with a full dunk, you have to win by surprise.

"Of course there is no technical problem, but..."

"There's nothing to worry about, let's do it, thank you."

If there is no technical problem, then there is no problem.

Lin Hong interrupted the other party and gave him a positive look.

"Okay, let's do it now."

Speaking of this, the staff gritted their teeth, stopped talking nonsense, and just did what they said.

"Before Lin Hong started the first dunk, what did he seem to communicate with the staff on the sidelines?"

Albert, the commentator on the sidelines, was also surprised: "What's the situation? The on-site staff seem to be adjusting the basketball hoop. What are they going to do?"

Just like Albert was concerned about.

The staff came to the basket and directly raised the height of the basketball hoop!

Yes.

Lin Hong decided to challenge the height and sent a super high basket dunk! !
"I buy it, I read it right!"

"Are you sure you're not joking?!"

United States, New York, Madison Square Garden.

The fans at the scene looked at the rising basket and went crazy.

In the preliminaries of the slam dunk contest, the first dunks of the top three players have ended.

Now, last season's slam dunk contest champion, Lin Hong, is the finale!
However, before going on stage, Lin Hong talked to the staff on the scene.

Immediately afterwards, amidst the puzzled eyes of the fans, the staff raised the height of the basket.

What's the situation? !
Not to mention that the fans at the scene were completely crazy.

Even the big judges on the judging panel were stunned.

"Michael, this kid won't challenge the ultra-high basket to dunk, will he?"

The smiling assassin instantly got excited: "This is not an easy task!"

"It's unbelievable, but it seems like it is."

Jordan was also stunned, and the corners of his mouth trembled: "No way, the height of the basket is still increasing..."

How high is Lin Hong going to challenge for this dunk? !
Qiao Gangzhu, who was amazed by Carter's 360-degree turn, fold and dunk, is now overwhelmed again.

Lin Hong this time, is he really going to challenge the limit to the extreme?
Finally, after several inquiries from the staff, the height of the basket was finally fixed.

"According to the latest news in our hands, the height of Lin Hong's basket has reached 3 meters!"
