Chapter 154 The three-point contest begins

Yun Chen looked at Curry, who was very confident in his suggestion, and didn't know how to reply for a while.

The bottom corner is the position he is least good at. Curry suggested that he put the most important flower ball here... Isn't this...a deliberate trick for him?

So after thinking about it for a long time, he still shook his head: "No, I shot too badly in this position, so I will definitely not be able to make it to the finals."

Seeing Yun Chen shaking his head, Curry laughed even more wildly, and said, "I said Li, you just listen to me, and you'll know when you're on the court!" He still insisted on his suggestion.

This really puts Yunchen in a difficult situation. Wouldn't it be too rude for Curry to give him a suggestion with such confidence, if he doesn't accept it?

"Ah, Li, don't hesitate. For things like shooting three-pointers, can the advice I give you be fake?" Curry continued to be persuasive.

"..." Yun Chen looked at him and blinked.

That's right, can anyone have more say than Curry in the matter of shooting three-pointers?Although Ray Allen is currently number one in the history of three-pointers, it is only a matter of time before Curry surpasses him. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one three-pointer in history. The advice he gave, I have no reason not to go believe?
"Hmm... then... trust you once?" After thinking about it for a long time, Yun Chen gritted his teeth and nodded, he chose to trust Curry once.

After Yun Chen nodded, Curry suddenly had a young boy with a promising expression on his face, and said, "That's right, tonight's three-point contest, I am very optimistic about you!"

Before he finished speaking, he leaned closer to Yunchen's ear and whispered, "Li, you have to fight for your breath! I had a fight with Durant and Green, and they all said that the champion this time must be Devin Bloom." Ke, I bet on you, don't let me lose!"

He spoke very seriously, as if he was talking about serious matters.

However, on Yunchen's head, there were bead-sized beads of sweat dripping down.

No wonder Curry came to guide him and told him for so long, it turned out that there was a purpose...

After saying these words, Curry left, but he was still near the bench, where there were exclusive seats for him and a bunch of stars, which the league specially arranged for them.

Not long after, the hour hand of the clock reached seven o'clock, and tonight's All-Star Game officially started.

The host said a lot of things that Yun Chen fell asleep after listening to it, and after the cheerleaders went up to perform again, it was finally the turn of everyone in the skills challenge competition.

This time the skills challenge did not have too many stars participating, most of them were some new star players, including new stars such as Tre Young and Rozier.

Because it lacked something to watch, Yunchen didn't pay too much attention to this game. He ran to the back and shook hands with all the stars.

Harden was also nearby. When he saw Yun Chen, he held his hand and refused to let go. At the same time, he desperately whispered in Yun Chen's ear: "Li, come to the Rockets. Our team lacks A small forward like you!"

Harden immediately started his own recruitment work. It can be seen that he admires Yun Chen very much. Even if there is Cameron Anthony in the team, he still has to come and say a few more words.

This can't be blamed on him, after all, in the current small ball era, as long as it is a team that plays fast offense, it will hope to have a wing like Yunchen.

This is the result of the choice of the times.

When Yunchen finally got rid of Harden's recruitment, the skills challenge was finally over. In the end, the small players finally defended their honor. In the end, Tre Young and Cousins ​​singled out and narrowly won. victory.

Afterwards, the host came on stage, interacted with the audience, and let the team invited by the alliance perform a lot of acrobatics and other programs.

Yun Chen didn't have any interest in these programs, so she just ignored them. After waiting for about ten minutes, the three-point contest finally came.

The host first introduced the eight contestants to the audience.

The eight players are ranked in order of appearance: No. 1 Middleton, No. 2 Vince Carter, No. 3 Russell Westbrook, No. 4 Karl-Anthony Towns, No. 5 Mirotic, No. 6 CJ McCollum, No. 7 Li Yunchen, No. 8 Devin Booker.

Yun Chen didn't know why he was so late, but he felt okay, at least he wouldn't play too early and felt less stressed.

After the introduction, the entire audience began to cheer. Of the three competitions tonight, this was the only one everyone was looking forward to. Neither the skills competition nor the slam dunk contest were worth watching.

After some preparations, Middleton, who was the first to play, took off his jacket and gave everyone a high-five, then slowly walked onto the field.

Middleton was a man of few words, and Yunchen didn't even hear what he said.

This season, his three-point shooting rate is 39.7%. Although it has not reached 40%, it is almost the same. He is a rare marksman.

His curd position is 45° to the right.

"Beep!" After everything was ready, the audience kept quiet, the referee whistled, and the game officially started!
Middleton's first spot is the right corner.

"Shua!" His movements were very fast, just like when he usually played, he would not let go of the slightest bit of time in the race against time.

The first ball, "Shua!" Hit!The second ball, "Shua!" was hit again, and the third ball, "Shua!" was still a hit!
As soon as these three goals were shot, the emotions of the audience were instantly detonated, and the cheers were one after another. Middleton made a good start for tonight's game.

However, it seems to be a bit "unexaggerated". As soon as the audience started cheering, he started to strike iron...

"Bang" "bang", two strikes in a row, and he scored 3 points at the first point.

The second point is his most important ball point.

It can be seen that he attaches great importance to this point, and after coming here, he took a breath and took a breath before starting to cast.

"Shua!" The first ball hit! "Shua!" The second ball hit!Get 4 points in an instant!
However, the third ball seems to have not been adjusted well, hit the iron.The fourth ball that followed, perhaps adjusted again, was hit, and the fifth ball was also successfully hit.

The audience who had just calmed down began to cheer again. Middleton scored a high score of 8 points in the second point, and instantly raised his score to 12 points, which is a very high score.

At the top of the arc, Middleton didn't hesitate, just picked it up and shot.

But he was too confident, because he hit three irons in a row because of his speed, he was so scared that he immediately slowed down, and then he stabilized the rhythm and scored the remaining two goals at this point.

In the third point, he scored 3 points, and the total score came to 15 points.

The fourth point, 45° to the left, should also be a point he is familiar with. After all, he scored 8 points in the opposite position.

However... things will always be unexpected.

He only scored 1 goal at this point, but fortunately, it was the final flower ball that scored and the score came to 17 points.

This can be said to be a very good result. As long as the last point is played normally and the bouquet is thrown in, he can basically score 20 points, and there should be no problem entering the final.

Middleton seems to be aware of this, and every shot from the last corner is carefully shot.

"Shua, Shua, Shua!" The first three balls were hit steadily, bringing his score to 21 points.

However, in the last two shots, he suddenly seemed to have a power outage and missed both shots. In the end, his score was fixed at 21 points.

Although 21 points is not particularly high, it can be regarded as a relatively safe score, so after the vote, Middleton rarely showed a smile.

Judging from the past two years, he should be the first one with such a high score, and he should be the only one. This three-point contest has shown its extraordinary side from the very beginning!
