Chapter 171 Three-Point Shootout Contest

By convention, the three-point contest will officially start the last game on the day before the All-Star Game.

Since the three-point shot is getting more and more important in the league, the finale of the first day of the All-Stars in the past two years is no longer a more explosive slam dunk contest!

The three-point shootout will be the new grand finale, taking place at the Staples Center in the late evening.

There are games for two consecutive days, so Ge ​​Feng naturally has no time to enjoy all the convenience that Los Angeles brings to star players.

Star players like James no longer need to participate in games to prove themselves. All they have to do is to enjoy this golden weekend of luxury.

But Ge Feng is different, Ge Feng wants to win this year's three-point shooting contest, because this is the best way for him to prove himself.

The first day of the All-Star Game was still a rookie game. Because of the three-point training, Ge Feng did not go to watch the game of his good brother Paul with Ingram.

On the second day of the All-Star Weekend, the final list of players to participate in the three-point contest was officially reported by ESPN.

As soon as this list was announced, it instantly became the most anticipated game for everyone.

Ge Feng, Curry, Thompson, and Durant are all confirmed to participate in the three-point contest.

Half a year ago, Ge Feng also provoked the Warriors' internal strife, and the Warriors fans almost hated Ge Feng to death.

This time the three Warriors brothers participated in the three-point contest together, they should want to prove to the world that they have become an extremely united Golden State Warriors just like last year.

With the shooting star, skill challenge and slam dunk contest coming to an end, the much-anticipated three-point shooting contest is finally about to officially begin!

The on-site staff began to play the special basketball for the three-point shooting contest, and now the fans can't wait to jump up and cheer for their favorite stars.

After waiting for a day, even this year's slam dunk contest can't whet the fans' appetite.

Everyone can't wait to see Ge Feng and Durant's three-point duel.

With the shouts of the fans, the Big Three of TNT also want to strike while the iron is hot, making the atmosphere on the scene even more intense.

"Barkley, we all know that you once wore pink lipstick and painted pink lips for Ge Feng. Now, please tell the audience friends, do you hate Ge Feng in your heart now?"

Smith can still play, and pulled Barkley out again before the three-point contest.

In front of hundreds of millions of viewers, Barkley gave Smith a few hammers and shouted: "To be honest, I don't hate him at all. Don't ask such boring questions again!"

Smith and O'Neill looked at Barkley with disbelief.

"Really?"

"It's true."

"Well, Barkley, you also know the relationship between Durant and Ge Feng. Do you think Durant hates Ge Feng?"

Smith turned the gun and directly asked the most sensitive and most wanted questions of the audience.

Barkley nodded quickly: "Dude, I can swear to you about this question. Durant must hate Ge Feng to death! I know Durant brother very well. He is a man who has revenge. Durant made a trumpet and cursed people. I announced it to the media."

When O'Neill heard this, he immediately answered: "Then you dare to swear that you really don't hate Ge Feng?"

Buck stared at O'Neill with a look of "I'm going to kill you", and frightened a fat man who was 2 meters 16 and 150 kilograms and hugged his head on the table.

"Ba Jue, forgive me, my brother really didn't mean to expose you!"

Smith laughed loudly and firmly protected the big shark.

These three live treasures were another good show that made the fans laugh out loud.

After a while, the three of them finally became a little normal.

Barkley said: "I think this game...it doesn't matter whether Ge Feng wins or not. The key is Durant. He must win."

"why?"

The two looked at Barkley at the same time. In fact, both of them already had the answer in their hearts.

"Because Ge Feng is still an unknown little star, who is Durant, he is going to be the number one man in the league. If he loses to Ge Feng in the three-point contest, there will be no place to put his face on."

O'Neill and Smith nodded simultaneously.

That's right, although Durant didn't start the league with three-pointers, he wants to be the number one man in the league after all.

Being No. [-] in the league shouldn't have a weakness, especially in the face of his old enemy Ge Feng. If Durant loses to Ge Feng, then he really won't be able to meet people in the future.

After the introduction of the players, there will be a three-point warm-up and appearance session.

The order of players participating in the competition is determined by the organizing committee drawing lots. Durant got the first lottery and Ge Feng got the last lottery.

This sequence of appearances is also absolutely perfect.

Ge Feng and Durant were not only assigned to the same group, but they were also the first and last to play in the group.

The TNT Big Three began to discuss the order of the lottery, whether God was revealing something to them in advance.

The rules of the three-point contest are very simple. Players are on 5 points on the field, and each point can complete 5 three-pointers.

Each point has four normal balls and one curly ball, and one point is awarded for hitting a normal ball, and 1 points for hitting a curly ball.

Players shoot at the left bottom corner of the court, the left 45-degree angle, the top of the arc, the right 45-degree angle, and the right bottom corner. The time limit is 5 minute, and the winner is determined based on the final score.

In the first round of projection, the top three in each group can advance to the second round, which is the final.

The rules of the finals are the same as those of the first round of qualifiers. If the score is the same in the game, there will be an additional play-off for those involved in the promotion places.

The referee explained the rules of the game to the fans.

Ge Feng, Durant and others have long been very familiar with the rules of the three-point contest, and they are now practicing on the court.

A long whistle sounded, and the players stopped practicing.

With the fans screaming passionately, Durant walked to the left corner and reached out to get ready.

Everyone is looking forward to how many points Durant can get in the first round.

"beep!"

With the sound of the timer, Durant started his game.

Durant used tiptoe shooting, which is a shooting method that players participating in the three-point contest will practice specially.

Because doing so saves jumping time.

"Shh."

Durant's first shot went straight into the net.

The fans whistled and cheered Durant.

Second, third, fourth, fifth...

"Wow, Durant looks crazy tonight, he hit all five three-pointers on the left!"

Durant came to the 45-degree position on the left again and continued to shoot.

At this time, many old fans couldn't help but sigh that Durant's progress over the years is really very fast.

In 12 years, Durant participated in the three-point contest.

But at that time Durant only scored 6 points in the first round and was eliminated.

The lowest score of 6 points almost broke the worst record in the history of the three-pointer contest. Durant was ridiculed for a long time because of this.

Today is not what it used to be, Durant is now the league's No. [-] god of death, and his three-point ability has also been practiced to the point of perfection...
