I'm really good at shooting.

ps: Ah brothers!

Chapter 329 Sun Hao, James, the Slam Dunk Contest

"China Storm."

In ESPN's latest report, they used such a headline.

Sun Hao, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian set off a Chinese storm in the NBA.

"This has played a great positive role in promoting the expansion of the NBA's Chinese market. At the same time, it will also help China increase its basketball influence and discover more young players. This is a win-win situation."

ESPN's analysis and evaluation are in place.

Sun Hao's intervention has caused history to develop rapidly in another direction.

When the time came to January, the Mavericks had some injuries, and Finley needed to rest for about a month due to the injury.

Bodi Loga left the team, and his playing time soared from 28 minutes last season to 38 minutes, which caused some physical reactions in him.

Johnson had no choice but to put Josh Howard into the starting lineup.

But this instead makes Josh Howard shine.

In more time, Howard not only showed the defense he showed, but also performed very well on the offensive end.

In addition to the low post play that has been shown in the preseason, his offensive and defensive conversion ability is also very suitable for the team.

Domestic fans even nicknamed Howard "ugly and tough".

He looks ugly, but his playing style is tough.

Sun Hao couldn't help laughing when he saw this.

Domestic fans are really talented, and he also thought of another word, ugly and handsome.

The representative of that player, um, Durant.

When Sun Hao thought of this, he wrote a letter to Durant asking about his recent situation, and sent him a pair of Adidas SH95 to encourage him to continue to play hard.

Soon Sun Hao also received a reply from Durant. In addition to thanking him, Durant also mentioned that he was planning to transfer to the National Christian Academy to play.

This is the same as in history.

Durant attended Oak Hill High School, but his real rise to fame came at National Christian Academy.

Before you know it, the time has come to late January.

Taking advantage of the ups and downs of the Mavericks due to injuries, the Timberwolves have quietly climbed to the No. [-] position in the Western Conference.

At this time, the voting for the 2004 NBA All-Star Game is about to begin.

But just one year later, the league has changed a lot.

The two forwards who exploded last year, Kobe and Tracy McGrady.

Kobe's overall performance declined significantly due to internal and external troubles.

McGrady was even worse, following the team's 19-game losing streak at the start of the game.

Afterwards, the Magic team saw the situation and directly failed, and McGrady was disheartened and began to fight alone.

Although his scoring average is still the highest in the league, his efficiency value has also dropped sharply.

Even his too much alone, some fans in Orlando suggested that the team send him away and start rebuilding ahead of schedule.

Obviously, stopping the first round for many years in a row has made fans tired of this former "white horse spear".

McGrady is also extremely disgusted with this sound.

His understanding is that Hill's contract dragged down the team's inability to strengthen, but in the end the responsibility fell on him, which gave him the idea of ​​leaving the team.

Next summer, there is bound to be a wave of turmoil.

Of course, the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, and the front waves died on the beach.

In addition to the continued topicality of the 03 generation, there are also people from the east and west that shine this year.

The most gratifying fan in the East is Michael Reed of the Bucks.

This second-round pick who participated in the Bulls' trial training with Sun Hao has grown into the core of the Bucks this season.

In addition to the breakthroughs he is good at, he also developed low-post singles, and even practiced three-pointers to the top level.

I am afraid that this kind of progress was completely unexpected by other teams during the draft.

But in any case, he averaged 21.7 points per game this season, which surprised everyone.

The most amazing person in the west is naturally Sun Hao.

So far, Sun Hao's scoring average has broken the 25-point mark, averaging 25.1 points per game, higher than Kobe Bryant, second only to McGrady and Iverson, ranking third in the league!

And he hit 45.5 percent of his three-pointers.

Many people have no concept of the three-point shot in this era. In the non-small ball era, except for Nash, the top three-point shooters can't shoot this kind of hit rate.

Take Ray Allen as an example. He only made 45% three-pointers in one season in his career, and that was already the 11-12 season.

Not to mention that Sun Hao still shot so many shots, this kind of hit rate is completely enough to fall into the category of "abnormal accuracy".

In this case, the league once again sent an invitation to Sun Hao, hoping that he could re-participate in the three-point contest.

Sun Hao declined again.

Now he is waiting for his eldest nephew Curry to enter the league, and then there will be an uncle-nephew duel.

The league was not reconciled, and once again invited Sun Hao, but this time it changed from a three-pointer contest to a slam dunk contest.

And this time, in order to increase the success rate, they also told Sun Hao such a thing.

They have already contacted James, who will participate in the dunk contest.

This actually moved Sun Hao a little bit.

Originally, as the bounce continued to increase, his dunk ability continued to improve.

Now his dunk attribute in the system has broken through 80 to 84.

Otherwise, how do you think he completed a 360° dunk during his trip to China last year, and even staged an actual dunk in the game?

He is no longer the boy who dunked, slipped and got caught by the basket!

Although this slam dunk ability value is a bit reluctant to participate in the slam dunk contest to win the championship, but the level of the slam dunk contest in this period of history was not particularly high.

And the slam dunk contest is turning to creativity as king, he has a great advantage as a traverser.

Of course, the most important thing is that James will also participate!

In history, James has never participated in the dunk contest, which is a great regret for many fans.

Sun Hao is also one of them.

In fact, he also wants to see how James will perform in the dunk contest.

In terms of actual dunks, James can also be ranked in the top ten or even the top five in history.

It is a pity that such a player has not participated in the dunk contest.

As for why he agreed, it is probably a fledgling.

Like Kobe and Carter, they participated in the slam dunk contest when they were still rookies.

Sun Hao finally agreed.

But what he didn't know was that not long after he agreed, the talents of the league found James, hoping that James could participate in the dunk contest.

"Sun has decided to participate, this is your best chance to challenge him."

This sentence finally succeeded in persuading James.

So, don't know which guy came up with the idea, it just works.

All in all, in the end, both Sun Hao and James agreed to participate in the dunk contest!

And, don't forget that there is also two-time slam dunk king Jason Richardson!

This time, the appetite of the fans was completely lifted.

We must know that compared to last season, Comey collectively broke out and Jordan reached the finals. Although this season has the Lakers F4 and the rise of the Pistons and Pacers, the overall highlights are not as good as last season.

But this is definitely a big news!

On this off-season day, Sun Hao took Nash to train with him.

Although the All-Star Weekend is for entertainment, since I participated and I have to compete with James and Richardson, I naturally have to prepare well.

And he specially called Nash from Oakland, and he was also preparing to surprise the fans.

The time came to the end of January in a blink of an eye, and the results of the All-Star voting, the list of substitutes, and the list of entries for individual competitions were all released one after another.

Eastern side, starters: Iverson, Carter, Tracy McGrady, Jermaine O'Neal, Yao Ming;

Subs: Kidd, Francis, Baron Davis, Michael Reid, Pierce, Artest, Ben.

Unfortunately, Arenas and Anthony were not selected.

In the west, the starters: Sun Hao, Kobe, Garnett, Nowitzki, O'Neal;

Subs: Nash, Sam Cassell, Ray Allen, Peja, Kirilenko, Brad Miller, Duncan.

After Nowitzki was pushed up by Chinese fans, Garnett and Duncan took turns in and out of the starting lineup.

James also regretted not being selected.

But Kirilenko's selection was a little surprising.

But his style is very similar to Artest in the East, and even more versatile.

The accident is just that the Jazz have just experienced the departure of Shuangsha, and their record is not outstanding.

In terms of individual competitions, this year the league has set up a new "Shooting Star" project.

This was originally Sun Hao's intention to participate, but according to the rules, the team composition of this project must be an active player, a WNBA player and a retired NBA player.

Sun Hao couldn't find a suitable teammate in the end, so he had to give up in the first year.

This year's All-Star Game was held in Los Angeles, and the Lakers also sent a "luxury lineup", Fisher, the first WNBA MVP Lisa Leslie to complete a dunk, and "Magic" Johnson.

In addition, the remaining three teams are the Pistons, Spurs and Clippers.

Skills Challenge: Baron Davis, Fisher, Marbury, Nash;

Nash lost to Kidd last year, and he made a comeback this year. Unfortunately, the defending champion Kidd did not participate.

Three-point shootout: Billups, Korver, Wash Leonard, Rashard Lewis, Mobley, Peja;

If Peja can continue to win, he will complete three consecutive championships in this event.

The slam dunk contest is also the event that fans are most concerned about in this year's All-Star Game.

In addition to Sun Hao, James and Richardson, the fourth person is James' teammate, Chris Anderson who played in the CBA before.

In the anticipation of the fans, the time soon came to mid-February, and the 2 All-Star Weekend was about to start in Los Angeles.

As in previous years, Adidas made another big move before this year's All-Star Game.

The success of Adidas SH95 made Adidas determined to launch the "sun" series.

The first generation of this series, Adidas.sun1, was launched before the All-Star game this year.

The Adidas team is full of expectations for this sneaker. It is also the first time to design an ultra-low top, and the color is also designed in the color of volcanic rock, which complements the monkey in the logo.

This is a sneaker with extremely high technology and good looks, which has made fans full of expectations before it is officially released.

In order to promote the sneakers, Adidas also let Sun Hao wear this shoe in advance.

On the first day of the rookie game, Sun Hao's feet became the place where reporters rushed to take pictures.

Because the appearance of this new shoe is a bit too high.

Even just based on this appearance, it can be predicted that he is another explosion beyond Adidas SH95.

Of course, Sun Hao's sneakers weren't all the focus on Day [-] of All-Star Weekend.

Because of the 03 golden generation, this year's rookie competition has also attracted much attention.
