Chapter 220 The fourth slam dunk contest where the judges can dunk better than the contestants!
Now of the six contestants, only Xu Lang did not appear.

Obviously, the performance of the first five players in the preliminaries completely exceeded many people's expectations, and it also exceeded Xu Lang's expectations!
After all, according to the state of the NBA three-point contest in previous years, most players in the preliminaries can score around 20 points at most.

Even most of the time, 20 points is already the highest score in the preliminaries!
As a result, this year, 20 points has actually become the standard for promotion!

And when Xu Lang played under the pressure of the fans' attention and the pressure of needing to score at least 20 points in order to advance.

In his heart, he was not worried at all about the preliminaries of the three-point contest, but he inevitably became nervous!
Fortunately, as a player with a big heart, Xu Lang immediately began to feel a sense of excitement after alleviating the tension.

Then, Xu Lang, who was excited by the pressure, easily scored 25 points and directly advanced to the final as the first place in the preliminaries!
As I said before, because of the system, Xu Lang's three-point shooting is very stable.

Under the rules of the three-point contest, most of Xu Lang's private practice scores were around 25 points, with a high point of 27 points and a low point of 23 points.

Therefore, as long as Xu Lang plays normally, it is difficult to say, at least scoring more than 20 points is no problem at all.

What's more, Xu Lang, who has become excited due to pressure, is in the best state of shooting and shooting feel!

If it wasn't for Xu Lang's bouquet shot being a little crooked at the last moment, Xu Lang might have directly advanced to the final with 27 points!

And after Xu Lang's last shot, he ended his first round of three-point shooting with a super high score of 25 points.

The three players who have advanced to the finals of this year's three-point contest have also been officially determined.

Xu Lang scored 25 points, Jason Kapono scored 23 points, and JJ Redick scored 21 points.

"Let me just say that the most important test in this kind of game is the on-the-spot reaction and the ability to withstand pressure.

And at this point Xu Lang is definitely better than the other two players. "

Seeing Redick and Kapono whose scores were significantly lower than those in private practice, Reggie Miller said jokingly to Steve!

"So, Steve, do you still insist that Jason Kapono has a higher chance of winning?"

Steve Kerr looked at the shooting rhythm, shooting speed, and shooting posture of Xu Lang carved out of the same mold during the whole shooting process, and he began to hesitate in his heart.

Although, in Cole's heart, he still thinks that Jason Kapono's three-point shooting ability, especially the three-point shooting ability in this static and uninterrupted situation, is better than Xu Lang's.

But Xu Lang's three-point shooting is too stable.

Steve Cole even had some doubts. Has Xu Lang been replaced by a robot now?
Otherwise, how could a normal player be able to keep every shot exactly the same and so precise?

"Hey, no matter how you say it, judging from the performance of the three in the preliminaries, the winner of this year's three-point contest has been confirmed and will set a new scoring record!"

Looking at Steve Kerr who was a little silent, and Larry Bird, who hadn't been involved in the debate between the two, he said with some relief!

"And don't you find out?
When you are discussing Xu Lang or Jason Kapono, who is likely to win this year's three-pointer?
Is the excitement and anticipation on the faces of the audience and fans behind you not weaker than watching the slam dunk contest? "

"So, this proves the fact that it's not that the three-point contest is bad, it's just that the players who participated in the three-point contest were bad."

Larry Bird pointed out the main reason for the lack of attention in the previous All-Star Weekend three-point contest.

After a short rest and adjustment, the final of the three-point contest will soon begin!

The three of Xu Lang also returned to the sidelines of the game, ready to start the game at any time!
According to the rules, the order of appearance of the players in the final will be based on the scores of the three players in the first round, from low to high.

Therefore, JJ. Redick is still the starting player, and Xu Lang is still the finale player.

Redick basically made the starting lineup that he had always wanted this season, and had a good time in this three-point contest!
Redick, who started the game, still chose to shoot a three-pointer from the left corner to start his own shooting order.

Compared with the first round, Redick's state adjustment in the second round was better. At the first shooting point, Redick hit three of the first four orange balls, which are one-point shots.

Although the final bouquet bounced three times on the basket, it was still unwilling to fall into the net in the end.

He scored 5 points on the first shot, which made a good start for JJ. Redick's shot this time.

And after the first shot made a good opener.

The shots behind JJ Redick are getting smoother, most of them are at least four shots, and three of them are flower balls.

Finally, after the fifth shooting point, JJ Redick scored a total of 25 points.

"Wang Defa, what's the situation? Is it so easy to get 25 points now?"

As former top three-point shooters Reggie Miller and Steve Kerr, they are a little uncomfortable with this year's three-point contest, and there will be a shooting performance of more than 25 points from time to time!
After all, as former contestants, both of them know very well how difficult it is to ensure the speed and accuracy of three-point shooting under the rules of the three-point contest.

Coupled with the pressure on the field, it is less likely to test the stability of each player's shooting.

Moreover, even in the private training of the two of them, it is rare for them to achieve a scoring performance of more than 25 points.

In this year's three-point contest, Xu Lang scored 25 points in the first round, and then, in the second round, Redick actually scored 25 points.

"Oh, I think this year's champion is out."

Jeff Hornacek was also surprised, and took advantage of the opportunity to say that JJ Redick would win the championship this year.

"No, no, I still think that Jason Kabuno is more likely to win the championship this year."

Steve Kerr looked at Jason Kapono who was warming up and taking a deep breath on the sidelines, and still insisted on his choice.

In fact, Jason Kapono did not let Steve Kerr down. The first shot Jason Kapono opened from the right bottom corner.

"call out!"

"brush!"

"call out!"

"brush!"

"call out!"

"brush!"

"call out!"

"brush!"

………………

I don't know if it was the stimulus of Redick's 25 points. On the first shot, Jason Kapono scored five goals in a row and directly got a perfect score of 6 points.

And this shooting rhythm seems to have continued to the second shooting point!

The second shooting point is full, and the third shooting point is still full.

At the end of three shooting points, Kapono has scored 18 points!

It wasn't until Jason Kapono missed the basketball for the first time on the flower ball at the fourth shooting point.

At the end of the four shooting points, Jason Cabano, who has already scored 22 points, has a great possibility to break the scoring record of 25 points just created by JJ Redick.

In fact, Jason Kapono's touch is really good.

After arriving at the fifth shooting point, Jason Kapono completed the third brother's orange ball first according to his own shooting rhythm, and hit all three balls.

25 points!
This is the third 25 points in this three-point contest.

And it wasn't over yet, after Kapono made another hit on the fourth orange ball.

In less than 10 minutes, he immediately broke the scoring record in the three-point contest final set by JJ. Redick.

At the same time, Redick, who started the game, was once again poked by Jason Kapono before he had the hope of winning the championship for 10% of the time!
It's just a pity that Jason Kapono was a little too excited in his heart for such a good scoring performance in the final bouquet shot.

As a result, his flower ball was slightly stronger this time, and he could only hit the frame in the end.

However, the scoring performance of 26 points in five shooting points also allowed Jason Kapono to advance half of his body to the podium of the three-point contest champion.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, I'll just say it, I'll say he's going to win."

Watching Jason Kapono who scored 26 points, Steve Kerr became excited and cheered like all the fans in the audience.

Xu Lang looked at the excited Cole and was speechless.

"By the way, do I still want to invite this guy to coach the team?!"

At the same time, after Kapono scored 26 points, all the fans and spectators now.

It was also the first time I discovered that the three-point contest can be so intense, so interesting, and so exciting.

And just when all the fans and commentators felt incredible and cheered.

Xu Lang silently came to the shooting point of the three-point line in the left corner, ready to start his own round of shooting.

To be honest, when Redick scored 25 points, Xu Lang felt a little bad in his heart, but at this time Xu Lang still felt more excited.

After Jason Kabuno scored 26 points, and even almost scored 28 points, Xu Lang's heart suddenly stopped.

Fortunately, Kapono missed the flower ball in the end and only scored 26 points.

This was within Xu Lang's acceptable range. After all, Xu Lang had scored 27 points in a private practice.

Soon, after a short period of confusion and cheers, all the fans and commentators focused their attention on Xu Lang, who played in the finale.

"I have to say that this year's three-point contest, no matter who can win the final championship, Jason Kapono, Xu Lang, and Redick will definitely leave a strong mark in the history of the three-point contest. Pen.

At the same time, this year's three-point contest will inevitably become a classic three-point contest. "

Larry Bird looked at Xu Lang with a calm face, and said a little excitedly.

With the audience quiet, Xu Lang took a deep breath and signaled to the referee that he was ready.

"call out!"

"brush!"

"call out!"

"brush!"

"call out!"

"brush!"

"........."

Just like Jason Kapono just now, Xu Lang also made all five shots at the first and second shooting spots. Xu Lang didn't miss a goal until the third shooting spot.

Because when Xu Lang was holding the ball, Xu Lang suddenly slipped his hand, which slightly interrupted Xu Lang's shooting rhythm, which caused Xu Lang to miss one-point shots.

But by the fourth shooting point, Xu Lang had completely readjusted his shooting rhythm, and then he hit all five goals again.

Like Jason Kapono just now, Xu Lang only missed one goal in the first four shots.

And because Xu Lang is different from Jason Kapono who just missed a suit ball, Xu Lang just missed an orange ball.

Therefore, after the four shots were over, Xu Lang scored one more point than Kapono.

Xu Lang, who scored 23 points, came to the last shooting point.

"call out!"

"brush!"

"call out!"

"brush!"

"call out!"

"when!"

At the third orange ball, Xu Lang's hand suddenly shook for no reason, causing him to accidentally miss a ball.

Seeing that there were 11 seconds left in the shooting time, Xu Lang took a deep breath and adjusted it a little.

"call out!"

"when!"

I don't know if it was because of nervousness, but Xu Lang knew the ball was gone the moment he shot it.

With 25 points and the last bouquet left, Xu Lang still grasped the possibility of overtaking the score at the last moment.

The game time is still the last four seconds, Xu Lang has enough time to complete the last shot.

Xu Lang picked up the bouquet in his hand, took another deep breath, and adjusted for two seconds.

Xu Lang threw the flower ball in his hand one second before the shooting time was about to end.

At the moment of the shot, Xu Lang felt that the ball was about to be scored.

There was no hesitation, it was like a muscular response.

After finishing the shot and landing, Xu Lang turned directly to face the attention of the audience, raised his arms high and roared out.

Accompanied by Xu Lang's roar, the bouquet he threw at the finale went directly into the net.

"Oh, ah, ah, ah ah!"

The commentary booth, all the fans, shouted for 1 minute.

The entire Thomas & Mark Center, because of Xu Lang's ball hit, immediately changed from the quietest venue in Las Vegas to the most restless venue in Las Vegas.

And 27 points is also a new scoring record for the three-point contest held so far.

"I think for at least the next ten years, the scoring record in the three-point contest will still be dominated by Xu Lang's score!"

If Xu Lang heard Larry Bird's remarks, he would definitely refute them decisively.

After all, in the next ten years, Stephen Curry, a guy who is good at three-pointers, will be born out of nowhere.

"Huh, I think that since the three-point contest was held until now, no fan or audience could have imagined that shooting a three-pointer could be so passionate."

"I don't want to say anything else. I just want to say, Xu Lang, yyDs."

"Counting the champion of the three-point contest, Xu Lang has achieved three consecutive championships in this year's All-Star Weekend.

From the All-Star Weekend Grand Slam that the media joked about before, Xu Lang is now only one slam dunk contest champion and the All-Star Game MVP. "

LeBron James, who was dragged by Kobe to play heads-up for more than two hours, also joined the ranks of throwing Xu Lang up just like Kobe.

After a mess of celebration and excitement.

Holding his third trophy of this year's All-Star Weekend, Xu Lang's fear of the task of the All-Star Grand Slam has been reduced by 80%.

"Xu, tomorrow I won't let you win the MVP so easily, you have to be prepared!"

Kobe Bryant punched Xu Lang's chest, and said vowedly.

"Oh, Kobe, don't say that, I'm going to compete in the slam dunk contest tonight, maybe I didn't succeed in the slam dunk contest."

"Oh, how is that possible? How could your dunk move fail?"

"I can even say that in terms of your slam dunk, there are few players in the history of the NBA who can do it."

Because there is a slam dunk in the middle, Kobe needs to participate as a guest, so Kobe knows one or two of Xu Lang's dunks!

At least from Kobe's own point of view, he couldn't complete the dunks of Xu Lang he saw.

Because there are three events to be compared in one day, less than three hours after the end of the three-point contest, the slam dunk contest is about to start again.

It may be in order to cooperate with the publicity of the All-Star Weekend Slam Dunk Contest. In this year's All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, the star power of the judges on the judge's bench is greater than that of this year's contestants.

The five judges of the 2007 slam dunk contest are two-time slam dunk king Michael Jordan and "Dr. J" Irving, the creator of free throw line dunks.

Two-time slam dunk champion, "Human Film Essence" Wilkins.

The slam dunk king at the turn of the NBA century, Vince Carter, a super-talented man known as half-human and half-god.

Finally, there is Kobe Bryant, the slam dunk champion in 1997 and now the No. [-] shooting guard in the Western Conference.

Not to mention other things, if these judges participate in this year's slam dunk contest, no one may dare to say that they can still win the title of slam dunk king!
Compared to the five star-studded judges on the judging table, the six players participating in the slam dunk contest this year are relatively ordinary.

A total of six players participated in the dunk contest in 2007, namely Tyronn Thomas, Gerald Green, Dwight Howard, Nate, Robinson, Xu Lang, and Brandon Roy.

Compared with the star-studded judges' seats, it is obvious that among the six contestants, except Xu Lang and Howard.

For the other players, there is a high probability that it will be impossible to achieve it in the future. The historical status and game achievements of these people on the judges' bench.
