Chapter 186
Playing behind Bryant is Bob Sura of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

At home, he is only 6 feet 5 inches tall, but he still enjoys the highest popularity today in Gund Stadium!

The first dunk, a 360-degree swivel dunk, the height was a little off, and the ball hit the rim!
Maybe it was to make up for the lack of height and to reduce the difficulty. For the next two dunks, Bob Sura used self-throwing, self-receiving and self-dunk methods. The only difference was that the second dunk was a frontal jump. The three-dunk is a run-up from the baseline, plus a little bit of drift in the air.

While the audience frantically waved the 10-point number plate, the judges gave the final score of 35 points.

This makes most players feel a little embarrassed.
Wang Dazhi didn't expect that the white guard who always targeted Dayao would have such a bad past.

The last to appear was Michael Finley.

Finley's first dunk also used the one-arm windmill that many people have tried. The ball was a little too hard, and the ball hit the neck of the basket and bounced away.

In the second dunk, Finley threw the ball under his left arm, caught it in the air, and dunked it with both hands.

This action was also done by Francis of the Rockets during the regular season of the 1999-2000 season, but it was relatively novel in 1997.

For the last dunk, Finley used a self-throw, cutting in from the baseline, receiving a rebound ball in the air, and a big windmill with one hand!

Michael Finley himself was very excited, he kept bouncing around while opening his mouth to growl!
But despite this, the final score given by the judges was only 39 points.

The first round of the slam dunk contest ended. After three dunks in the first round, Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers, Michael Finley of the Dallas Mavericks and Chris Karl of the Minnesota Timberwolves entered the second round.

In the second round, everyone dunked twice, but they started to take turns to play. Every dunk scored, and the one with the highest score was the slam dunk champion.

The first one to play was Michael Finley.

Michael Finley's first dunk throws the ball high towards the basket. While sprinting towards the basket, Finley tries to do a somersault and then catches the ball. While receiving the rebound ball in the air, Finley dunks the ball On the basket, the ball ended in failure.

Michael Finley's face was full of regret, and some fans also felt very sorry for the ball, but more people were twitched by Ray's laughter, because Michael Finley's actions did look a bit ghostly!

Although the ball was indeed very difficult, it was a pity that the dunk failed, so Michael Finley only scored a low score of 33 points.

Next is Chris Karl. Judging from the results of the first round, he has good strength.

Chris Karl's first dunk is very similar to the second dunk in the first round. They both threw the ball up and then caught the rebound in the air for a one-handed dunk.

The completion of the dunk this time was very average. Maybe it was due to the focus on the strength of the dunk. Carl did not grasp the timing of his jump. When he received the ball and dunked, his body was already falling. However, the judges still gave Carl 42 points. .

Many players participating in the slam dunk contest have such a common problem, that is, they exert too much force in the preliminaries and lack stamina in the finals.

But it is impossible for Kobe to have such a situation, because his big moves are all left behind!

This time Wang Dazhi and Kobe got up together and walked into the arena!
Larry Bird: "I can't believe Kobe didn't play with Steve Nash in the second round!

The one who came to the arena with him was actually Wang Dazhi!Could it be that Wang Dazhi can pass the ball more delicately than Steve Nash?
I can't believe it, I can't believe it!
I really can't figure out what these two popular rookies of the Lakers want to do in the dunk contest! "

I said three times that I couldn't believe it, and Larry Bird was also excited by Kobe's unexpected choice!

The fans in the Gund Stadium seemed to be dissatisfied with Wang Dazhi's playing. These Tieling people who were impressed by Steve Nash's superb football skills were shouting "We want Nash! We want Nash!".

Hearing such shouts, Wang Dazhi couldn't help showing a sneer. He thought to himself, Nash can have the same effect as me?
Just kidding!
Wang Dazhi took the ball to the basket, and he stood one step outside the reasonable collision zone.

Wang Dazhi: "How about it, is this place okay?"

Wang Dazhi yelled at Kobe!

Kobe: "A little later, I'm in shape!"

Kobe's fighting spirit was high at this time, and he was obviously in full swing.

Hearing such a change, Wang Dazhi felt a little uneasy, but Kobe was the protagonist today, so he stepped back a little according to Kobe's intention.

Kobe: "Okay! That's it!"

After Kobe finished speaking, Wang Dazhi faced the basket, with his head bowed and his arms curled up, putting the ball on the back of his head!

Larry Bird: "What is this kid going to do? He just finished flying Nash, isn't he going to fly Wang Dazhi???"

Seeing Wang Dazhi who was still adjusting the angle, Larry Bird couldn't help but gasped. No one would have dared to think of such a crazy move in 1997!
Magic Johnson: "I also heard that Kobe can complete such an action, but seeing is believing. Only when I see it with my own eyes, will I believe that someone can jump over the top of a seven-foot head!"

Magic Johnson had heard about the crazy design of the two, but Kobe and Wang Dazhi practiced this move in private, and no one has ever seen whether it was successful or not.

After Wang Dazhi stood still, Kobe began to look around the audience and constantly raised his hands to mobilize the atmosphere!

The audience also played the rhythm for Kobe again. As fast as the applause of the audience, Wang Dazhi's heartbeat was as fast as it was!

Kobe sprinted at full speed from beyond the three-point line to the applause of the audience!Wang Dazhi silently prayed to all the gods he knew!
Half a meter behind Wang Dazhi, Kobe rose like a helicopter!
pick the ball!More people!Pull the lever!Dunk!All in one go!
Gund Gym is frying pan again!The players on the sidelines opened their mouths for a long time before they came to their senses and began to celebrate wildly!

"Kobe! Kobe! Kobe!"

Kobe listened to the cheers of the fans, and Wang Dazhi jumped directly onto Kobe's back!

Wang Dazhi: "The two of us are not ashamed in front of so many people!"

Compared to his comparably calm, Wang Dazhi was terrified just now!

Magic Johnson: "Young man, shit, young man!
The visual impact of this dunk is too strong!

Wang Dazhi is seven feet tall with bare feet!The world is just too crazy! "

Being able to witness such a performance with his own eyes, Magic Johnson is as crazy as the fans!
Larry Bird: "Did this kid grow up eating springs? I can't jump that high even if I jump twice!"

For Kobe's bounce, Larry Bird can only envy, envy and hate!
