Legend of Tomorrow
Chapter 866 [Gifted, know yourself and your enemy]
The dunk contest is the highlight, and the four players participating are Dwight Howard, Nate Robinson, Jamario Moon and rookie Rudy Fernandez.
Moon took the lead and received full marks for his first dunk. After throwing the ball high, he ran to the other side of the basket to catch the ball with one hand and looked back at the moon for a dunk, which he completed in one go.
His movements were elegant and stretched, and he stayed in the air for a long time, conquering the judges and fans at the scene.
Fernandez's first action was a self-throw and a dunk. He threw the ball behind his back and hit the board. Then he ran to the right side and caught the rebound with one hand and dunked it. He completed it in one go and scored 42 points.
This ball is actually not difficult. It doesn't matter whether he throws the ball behind his back or bounces it. The judges don't like this kind of trick.
Little Potato Robinson came on for the third time. He threw the spherical frame high, followed up with the bounce ball from the ground and made a one-handed windmill dunk. He scored 46 points. There was no creativity at all. The high score was because he was short.
The most famous Howard made his final appearance. He threw the ball from behind the backboard, went around to the right to catch the ball and dunked the ball in, scoring 50 points. His dunk is a bit similar to Moon's, except that the angle of the throw is different.
Fernandez, who scored the least points, took the lead in the second round and chose to cooperate with Hawks teammate Nash. Nash hit the ball behind the backboard and rebounded. Fernandez jumped up from the right baseline. After receiving the ball, he jumped out from behind the backboard and dunked with one hand.
This action was very difficult and beautiful, but he ran out of two minutes and only scored 42 points when he dunked in over time.
Robinson's second dunk was a successful dunk on his teammate's back, and he only scored 41 points. This action was a bit insulting, and there was little applause from the fans at the scene.
As a result, Moon was relieved of the pressure. He threw the ball in the middle and completed a half-turn dunk. He scored 46 points and advanced to the finals. Howard also scored 42 points with a double-hand folding back dunk to advance.
In Guo Xu's previous life, Robinson, who won the dunk king three times, was eliminated in the preliminaries. He has never won a dunk title in this life. Howard is not Superman, so his Kryptonian dunk will naturally not appear.
In the final, Howard's weakness in not having many dunk tricks was revealed again. Both dunks were boring, a dunk from the free throw line and a basketball hoop pulled up to alley-oop to a higher basket.
Unless Howard's head is much larger than the frame, the audience won't buy it. It looks like an ordinary two-handed alley-oop. There is no judge to score in the finals. The slam dunk king is selected by the audience sending text messages to support.
Moon also performed a dunk from the free throw line, which was much harder than Howard's. Guo Xu was responsible for hitting the ball and rebounding it. Moon took off from the free throw line and dunked the ball with his left hand.
In his previous life, Moon dunked like this but did not score much because he put white tape a little in front of the free throw line, but his final take-off position was behind the free throw line. This is suspected of deceiving the emotions of the audience. This time he did not put any tape on Guo Xu's suggestion, but took off from the free throw line, and received more applause.
Moon's last move was to slide down the baseline and dunk with his left hand. He jumped from the right side of the basket to the left side, half-turned and dunked in with his left hand. He used to do this a lot when he was on the Harlem basketball team, and it was a great trick.
The butterfly effect appeared. After the fans voted, Moon beat Howard to become the slam dunk champion with 55% support rate.
Moon relies entirely on his strength, and his popularity is vastly different from Howard's. In the Suns, he usually played garbage time. If the All-Star Games were not held in Phoenix and there were no outstanding dunker players willing to participate, the league would not invite him.
The person the league most wants to invite is James, but he is determined not to participate in the dunk contest.
After the game, fans discussed the Suns' lineup. After Moon won the championship, the Suns now have four players who have won the dunk contest. This is a historical record. No other team can even get together four people who have participated in the slam dunk contest.
No one says that the Suns' lineup is no longer good. How can other teams compare with the Suns in talent? There is also Jordan on the team who can also participate in the slam dunk contest, but he just did not get the invitation this time.
On the 16th, the All-Star Game begins.
When the players were warming up, CCTV5's Zhang Lili predicted: The Western Conference will definitely win today. Guo Xu is 80% MVP. The suspense is what data he can produce. Today is the home court of the Suns. He is the most popular star and everyone should be happy. Create opportunities for him.
Yu Jia smiled and said: It depends on whether he has the strength to show off. He has been having a lot of fun these days. He has not been idle since Wednesday. He is at home with his two celebrity girlfriends. Most people have long lost their energy.
Many viewers in front of the TV listened to the explanation and couldn't help but start to imagine Guo Xu's process from being energetic to being inactive...
Guo Xu has been very restrained in the past two days. Playing in front of his own home, he will never let the MVP get to someone from another team.
Moreover, as long as he wins the All-Star MVP again, it will be the fourth time in his career, sharing the first place in history with Bob Pettit.
This is the best opportunity. If it is not a home game, he will not be able to steal the spotlight from the home stars.
West starting lineup: Guo Xu, Paul, Stoudemire, Duncan, Yao Ming.
The strange combination of three big men and two point guards feels difficult to play. Stoudemire has served as a power forward many times this season and formed a twin tower with his teammates, and is counted among the forwards.
Eastern starting lineup: Nash, Wade, James, Garnett, Howard.
At the beginning of the game, Yao Ming won the jump ball. Stoudemire passed the ball to Guo Xu. The players opened up the space and created singles opportunities for him.
The defensive end of the Eastern Conference is man-to-man tactics, with Nash keeping up with Paul and Wade focusing on Guo Xu. This was arranged by Eastern Conference coach Mike Brown before the game. Letting Nash guard Guo Xu would be like giving away points. Everyone knew he couldn't guard him.
Guo Xu did not consider passing the ball. The Eastern Conference's starting insiders were two super defensive players. Stoudemire did not have an advantage against James on the outside, while Paul needed to hold the ball to perform.
Wade only played two regular season games with Guo Xu in a season. Because he suffered injuries, he only played once in two years. During the game, Wade usually defends the No. 2 position. He and Guo Xu are not familiar with each other.
Guo Xu was too familiar with Wade. The first time he entered the parallel world time loop was in Orlando, which is very close to Miami. He and Wade conducted long-term devil training together and often dueled one-on-one. The two members of the Mengba Team also trained together and did not face off many times, but Guo Xu figured out what fake moves Wade took on the defensive end.
Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Guo Xu dribbled the ball from his crotch to his left hand, took a small step to the right, and Wade moved sideways to keep up. He collected the ball quickly with his right hand, turned around with a long stride and successfully passed the ball. He faced the frame a little before the free throw line and picked the basket with his low hand.
His shot was far away, so it was a mid-range shot, but the force was just right and it hit the net! 2 to 0.
Howard was under the basket, but far away from Guo Xu. As soon as he saw the height of the ball, he didn't take off to block the shot. If he did, it would be an interference ball. In the previous game against the Suns, Howard interfered with the ball and killed the Magic. This will make him remember.
Wade's heart skipped a beat, as he seemed to be in a bad situation. Guo Xu couldn't defend himself when he was in a strong state.
The Eastern Conference attacked, Nash dribbled the ball across half court, Wade reached for the ball, ready to return one.
Guo Xu also knows how to defend Wade. His outside jump shot is nothing special, and his shooting rhythm is easily disrupted when he is close to him. He basically had no three-pointers, so Guo Xu took two steps away to prevent breakthroughs but not shots.
Wade held the ball and forced a breakthrough. His physical advantage was enough to challenge Guo Xu. He was taller and heavier. But there were people around the penalty area, and the West had three insiders on the court together, so Wade couldn't get to the basket.
He chose an emergency mid-range shot on the right side. Guo Xu calculated the distance and was waiting. He jumped to interfere and the ball went wide...
