The cheers of the audience also reached a climax.
With all the stars, this is definitely the focus of today's battle.
The game was divided into three rounds, and 8 players were divided into four groups to compete in twos, from the preliminaries to the semi-finals and then to the finals.
The rules of the game are also very simple. Players dribble the ball from the bottom line on one side over obstacles, and then complete a long-distance pass at a 45-degree angle on the other side.
The ball must pass into the designated hole, then dribble back to the half court for a layup, and finally turn back to another section to complete the three-point shot.
The first player to finish wins.
The interesting thing about this project is that it is not the person who completes the previous links faster will definitely win, because the last thing is the three-point shooting ability.
This is why Thompson said yesterday that Tang Tian must beat Curry.
Although Curry often made three-pointers in actual combat, Thompson knew how strong Tang Tian was on the training ground.
The grouping of 8 people has come out.
Curry vs. Westbrook, Walker vs. Wall, Owen vs. Lillard, Tang Tian vs. Harden.
The game hasn't started yet, but this group is already full of highlights.
Westbrook has been dissatisfied with Curry, this is tantamount to his chance.
Walker and Wall, the "two brothers" playing together, really make people confused.
Both Irving and Lillard are known for their ball possession, and the latter is also the defending champion. This should be the most intense group.
As for Tang Tian and Harden, the two are currently ranked third and fourth in the MVP ranks, which is tantamount to a reversed MVP battle.
Each group is full of highlights, and the fans' emotions are also lifted high.
The confrontation between Curry and Westbrook started first.
The cheers at the scene were completely unstoppable.
Durant was also sitting on the sidelines at this time. He came to cheer for Westbrook.
However, his gaze also stayed on Curry from time to time, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Curry was full of smiles, and it could be seen that he didn't care about the outcome of the game, and came with the mentality of playing.
In contrast, Westbrook's expression is much more serious, he obviously wants to win.
"Which of them will win?"
Walker's match was in the next group, so he asked Tang Tian with a smile.
At the party the day before yesterday, this guy looked like he had lost interest in the whole world, but he found a girlfriend, and he was in a better mood than anyone else.
"Stephen."
In Tang Tian's heart, he still hoped that Westbrook would win. After all, Westbrook really wanted to win.
But Curry has too much advantage in the three-pointer. Unless he plays abnormally himself, Westbrook doesn't have much chance.
"beep!"
The sideline whistle sounded, and the two took the ball and set off at the same time.
In terms of ball-handling skills, the two are almost the same, but Curry is not so serious, and the speed around obstacles is slower than Westbrook.
Westbrook rushed to the point of the pass, but missed the first pass.
He was a little too anxious.
Curry was late at this time and scored on the first pass.
Instead he took the lead.
Both layups were about the same time.
When he took the ball and ran forward again, Westbrook's advantage was once again reflected.
His straight-line speed is definitely faster than Curry.
He took the lead in rushing to the frontcourt to pick up a three-pointer and shoot.
After the throw, he looked at the ball with fiery eyes.
"Dangdang!"
It's a pity that his first three-pointer missed the basket.
Three-pointers are not what he is good at.
Curry was late again, and he took the ball and shot it.
"Shh!"
competition is over.
Westbrook didn't have time to throw the second ball.
Curry raised his hands after the goal, enjoying the cheers of the fans.
Westbrook's expression was slightly frustrated.
Tang Tian stood up at this time and comforted Westbrook.
Last year's All-Star game, Westbrook and him called quite a lot, and they had a good relationship.
Durant frowned when he saw this scene, walked over and stretched out his hand to pull Westbrook over.
This guy is jealous.
Tang Tian shook his head when he saw this, Durant's measure was really only so small.
Curry advanced first, followed by Walker and Wall.
The two really look alike. If it weren't for the height gap, it would be really easy for non-serious basketball fans to admit mistakes.
This group is evenly matched. Both of them are strong in dribbling and passing, and they are not good at three-pointers.
In the end, Walker was luckier and scored the second three-pointer.
In this way, Curry will join Walker in the semifinals.
The third group is Irving and Lillard. When they appeared on the stage, the cheers on the scene increased significantly.
Irving's popularity is very high in the United States, and Lillard is the defending champion. This group is more interesting than the previous two groups.
And the expressions of both of them are very serious, they are both the ones who want to win.
The side whistle sounded, and the two set off at the same time, and they passed the obstacles very fast, keeping pace with each other.
Passing the ball is also a success.
A layup was also successful, and the two rushed to the frontcourt at a fast speed at the same time.
There was a commotion at the scene.
The speed of the two was faster than that of the previous two groups, and it really was a peak duel.
Both of them took the ball and shot it almost at the same time.
It was at this last moment that a difference appeared between the two.
Irving's three-pointer missed the basket, but Lillard's shot went into the frame.
Lillard eventually defeated Irving to become the third player to advance to the semifinals.
After the goal, Lillard raised his hands in celebration.
Compared with Curry's action that made people want to laugh, Lillard is obviously more domineering.
Although Niannian is the legacy of the All-Stars, it has to be said that his game temperament is not inferior to any All-Stars at all.
At the end of Lillard's game, the cheers of the fans at the scene were even higher than before.
The last group is Tang Tian and Harden.
Since last season, Tang Tian and Harden have often been compared by fans and the media, and the two are still competing for MVP.
Such a direct contest is very interesting.
Tang Tian walked to the starting position and turned to look at Harden.
His mentality is relatively relaxed. After all, for him, this kind of competition focuses on participation, and whether he wins or not is not that important.
Harden is more serious, he always smiles to others, but Tang Tian has won him too many times, and has been pressing him all the time, he wants to stand up.
"beep!"
At the start of the game, the two speeded up with the ball at the same time.
But immediately, Harden fell below.
Harden is now very heavy, which is not obvious on the field, but when he is purely fighting for speed, he is much behind Tang Tian.
Tang Tian arrived at the pass point two positions ahead of Harden, and made a successful pass with the ball.
He then dribbled back for a layup which was also a success.
Harden has been pulled away by more than one meter.
Finally ran beyond the three-point line in the frontcourt, Harden was already 2 meters behind.
Tang Tian was about to shoot a three-pointer. Harden knew Tang Tian's open shooting percentage and threw it directly at the logo position in the midfield.
"Shh!"
Tang Tian's three-pointer went into the net hollowly, and Harden's ultra-long three-pointer jumped out of the basket.
Tang Tian basically didn't give Harden any chance, and he crushed and advanced all the way.
The process of this game is a bit like Curry vs. Westbrook before.
The last group is over, and another group of semi-final matches is also released, Lillard vs. Tang Tian.
There was a short streetball performance at the scene. After the performance, the semi-finals began immediately.
Curry and Walker's first start.
Before the game, Curry waved his hands to pump up fans' emotions.
There were constant cheers at the scene.
The Warriors have risen strongly this season, but because of a sudden, their number of fans is actually not that many.
Just like how many people look at the nouveau riche, most people disdain the Warriors more.
But their attitude towards Curry is different. This star with a baby face is really likable.
"Kemba, come on!"
Tang Tian cheered for Walker on the sidelines.
Although he has a good feeling for Curry, his feelings are not worth mentioning in front of his brothers.
"beep!"
The game starts soon.
Curry obviously became serious in the semifinals. Although winning or losing is not the most important thing, competitive sports need to go all out no matter what it is for.
The speed of the two is very fast, and the pass is also successful at one time.
The layup was also a one-time success. In the final three-pointer, Walker's straight-line speed advantage came out, and he shot a three-pointer before Curry.
The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were on the spinning basketball.
Tang Tian's gaze also followed the basketball.
This ball was shot very well, and the strength was well grasped. It is likely to be scored in nine out of ten.
"boom!"
The ball hit the rim of the hoop, spun around it, and slid out!
Walker's luck was bad, and the ball had a one-tenth chance of going away.
Curry's three-pointer has also been shot at this time.
The moment Walker's ball spun out, it went hollow into the net.
Curry narrowly advanced to the finals.
