NBA Please Answer 2007

Chapter 80

After the skills contest, there is a three-point contest.

This year's three-point contest was not quite the same as Li Zhi remembered, and the process was different, because Belinelli and Crawford participated in the three-point contest.

By Li Zhi's side, Gallinelli has plenty of shooting space. This season, his three-point shooting percentage is as high as 40.6%.

The game consists of six players competing in two rounds. The top three scorers in the first round will enter the final, and then the final champion will be determined.

Participants in this event include Richard Hamilton of the Pistons, Kapono of the Raptors, Steve Nash of the Suns, Dirk Nowitzki of the Mavericks and Crawford and Gallinelli of the Warriors.

Kapono was the 2007 champion, while Nowitzki was the 2006 champion.

Hamilton took the lead. He ranked third in the league in three-point shooting this season. "Masked Man" entered the state slowly. He frequently missed the first shooting point and always missed the ball. Although he found the feeling in the second and third shooting points, he was sentenced to stepping on the line twice and only scored 14 points in the end.

When Nash played, there was thunderous cheers from the sidelines, and the two-time MVP was full of popularity. He also scored only 1 goal at the first shot point, and missed all 5 shots at the second shot point. In the end, he lost his standard and only scored 9 points.

Dirk Nowitzki made his third debut, replacing the injured Kobe Bryant to qualify for the competition. The German actually shot "three non-sticks" at the first point, but hit all 5 goals at the second point and finally scored 17 points.

Crawford played immediately, and he, who was originally underestimated, also scored 15 points.

Defending champion Kapono was the penultimate player to play. He made all 5 shots at the last point and finally scored 20 points.

Belinelli played last. He only scored 2 goals in the first shot, but scored 5 points in the second shot. Relying on the flower ball hit by the buzzer, he finally scored 17 points.

Belinelli, Nowitzki and Kapono entered the final, while Li Zhi and Crawford cheered for Gallinelli on the sidelines.

Li Zhi thought for a while, then took out a pack of spicy strips and handed them to Belinelli. The spicy strips can restore physical strength, and maybe they can help Belinelli.

"Come on, eat some spicy noodles." Li Zhi said.

Crawford looked helpless, and said: "Brother, it's a critical moment, what should I do if I eat this kind of food and have diarrhea.

Li Zhi's face darkened, this guy has a prejudice against Chinese spicy noodles.

"No matter, eat, supplement nutrition!"

Crawford rolled his eyes at Li Zhi, and Belinelli was the most obedient baby, and finally ate the spicy strips under Li Zhi's pressure.

Dirk Nowitzki was the first to play, and he didn't feel good. He only scored one point in the first point, and finally scored only 14 points.

The defending champion Kapono scored 4 points in the first 20 shooting points, and finally hit an amazing score of 24 points, tying the record of 24 points created by himself last year, and also tying the record of the three-point long-range shooting contest.
This is the highest score in the NBA three-point global competition, and the championship of the three-point competition has basically been locked.

Barkley commented: "If nothing else, Kapono will be the defending three-point shooting champion.

Kenny Smith also said: "Yes, although Gallinelli is good, it is a bit difficult to break this result. Kapono is simply a bug in the three-point contest."

Jason Kapono is the same type of player as Novak. In terms of shooting ability, there are players who are on the same level as Korver or even better than Korver. If he has better physical fitness and improves his defense, he will be an excellent 3D player.

But what makes Korver better than them is his tireless running ability, above-level defensive ability and first-class basketball IQ among pure shooters.

Korver's body is very strong. Although his speed and bounce are average, he has no problem with defense, top man, and position.

If you often watch Korver's ball, you will find that his offense is not only a quick shot after catching the ball, but also passing the ball to a player with a better inside position after running out of opportunities to catch the ball.

Of course, the three-pointer contest is about three-pointers, so a single shooter like Kapono has the opportunity to display his talent.

When everyone was talking, Belinelli appeared on the stage.

"Shhhhh!"

The fans stared dumbfounded at Belinelli, who has 23 points now.

Everyone watched with bated breath for the last bouquet in Gabellinelli's hands. Gallinelli took a deep breath, his hands had never been so hot.

Bend your knees, jump up, shoot, the movements are smooth and smooth, all in one go.

"Go in! Belinelli scored the last bouquet, 25! A new record!" Barkley shouted loudly.

"Hahaha, I knew you could!" Li Zhi and Crawford patted Gallinelli on the shoulder and said.

Belinelli was very happy, and said excitedly, "Thank you, boss, the hot strips from boss will work."

Li Zhi also didn't expect that Latiao really has hidden skills?
Belinelli has the potential to be a three-pointer, but Belinelli won the three-pointer in the 2014 All-Star in his previous life.

The three of them didn't care about Gallinelli's title, but unconsciously, Li Zhi had left a subtle influence on the players' hearts.

……

This year's three-point contest has a lot of gold content, and the fans have enjoyed watching it, especially the confrontation between Kapono and Belinelli. Belinelli also broke the record of the three-point contest.

The three-point contest is over, and it will be the finale of the second day of the All-Stars—the dunk contest!
With its unique charm, the NBA Slam Dunk Contest has become the most popular event in the entire NBA All-Star Series.In the slam dunk contest, the competition is not only about the violent aesthetics that the stars use their superhuman physical fitness to show the audience.

At the same time, this event also provides a stage for those NBA stars to show their creativity.

The first All-Star Slam Dunk Contest was established in 1984, but in fact, the Slam Dunk Contest was not the first in the NBA.

In 1976, the ABA League created the dunk contest for the first time in the All-Star Game. "Dr. J" Irving, who was still playing in the ABA at that time, completed a dunk from the free throw line and was crowned successfully.

But in the 1976-77 season, the NBA and the ABA merged. At that time, the league did not have an All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, but there was a slam dunk contest that lasted the entire season.However, the game was abolished after only one season.

Until 1984, the NBA All-Star Slam Dunk Contest was officially born.Over the decades, countless legendary superstars have appeared in this game and competed for the championship title, such as Jordan, "Dr. J" Irving, Kobe Bryant, Drexler, Wilkins, Tracy McGrady and Carter.

Of course, there are also some role players who have become famous for their amazing performance in the dunk contest.

Larry Nance defeated Dr. J in the first dunk contest.Since then, the slam dunk contest has quickly reached its peak. In the late 80s, the duel between Jordan and Wilkins, the "essence of human cinema", pushed the event to its climax.

But in the 90s, the slam dunk contest was in decline, and the number and quality of participating stars were not as good as before. In 1997, a then-rookie Bryant won the Slam Dunk Contest, but the event was suspended for two years. In 1998, the NBA decided to suspend the slam dunk contest, and in 1999 the league suffered a shutdown.

Until 2000, the slam dunk contest was resumed, and super dunks such as Carter, McGrady and Francis participated.The slam dunk contest ushered in what might be the best contest ever.

Carter hung on the wall against the sky and spun 360 degrees in the air, making "GO HOME" a classic term in the slam dunk contest, but after that, the event still inevitably declined.
