Chapter 218 All-Star Game
"Last question, which of the four referees is optimistic about winning today's slam dunk contest?" The host saw the players appearing, but his eyes were still on the hands of the four referees.
Although today's protagonists are the players who are about to participate in the slam dunk contest, the four uncles on the referee's bench also have a certain role.
"Vince Carter!" Everyone thought that Stern would gossip, but the president directly mentioned his favorite player, "So people think that Vince has the most balls on the ball, basically Get the best goals in every game!"
Vince Carter has become the symbol of dunks in the NBA. Whenever you talk about dunks, everyone will think of Carter and this "UFO"!
"President, you need to know that players of our type don't dunk often!" Frequent top shots don't mean a person's ability to dunk, and the slam dunk contest is all about creativity, so Xing Tian doesn't agree with the president's statement.
Although Vince Carter is strong, but there are so many powerful guys tonight, no one can be sure who will win tonight in the end.
"Haha, our judges have different opinions!" Sure enough, the purpose of the host was to provoke a few judges and let them express their own ideas.
If everyone knows that Vince Carter will win the slam dunk contest tonight, then it's no fun.Creating dissent among referees is a selling point for enhancing game viewing.
It's not that Xing Tian didn't mean to respect the president. Everyone should express their opinions, so the two discussed it in the referee's seat, but it seemed that neither of them had the intention of convincing the other.
"It's up to me, I think our Los Angeles Flyer can win this slam dunk contest!" Taylor also participated in the discussion, completely ignoring that this is New York.
Hearing Taylor's words, there was a very loud booing in the audience. You must know that New York and Los Angeles are two hostile cities. If Los Angeles is being promoted here, the old men in New York City will naturally be unhappy.
"I also support my disciple, Michael Jordan!" Phil Jackson saw the host's eyes and said it with certainty.
Originally, Phil Jackson didn't quite support Jordan's participation in the dunk contest. Now that his disciples are here, Phil will support Michael's decision.
"Mr. Xing Tian, you are the one who talks the most today. Don't you want to tell me about your favorite player?" The host gave Xing Tian a few looks, but Xing Tian completely ignored the host, so the host could only ask.
"Flying man! Flying man! Doctor! UFO! These nicknames prove their ability to dunk. If I really have to choose one, I think it should be Xing Tian!" Xing Tian saw that the host still did not want to let himself go, so Xing Tian started gossip.
"As a player, how could I think others are better than me!" After Xing Tian said himself, the fans booed in the audience. This kind of booing was very brisk, as if it was just booing on purpose.
"Besides, I haven't had a domineering nickname since I played golf. I am very unconvinced!" Since you don't practice Tai Chi, I will!You are not afraid of offending other people, I am afraid, after all I have to secretly learn their moves.
Hearing Xing Tian's words, everyone laughed. Suddenly, everyone didn't care about the players the referees favored. As long as the contestants performed well, these referees would never be partial.
A person who is partial will not have much impact on the results of the game. There are four referees in this game, and they will all be measured when it comes to the critical moment. After all, where is their identity?
Before the slam dunk contest, there was a 10-minute warm-up time. When the eight players walked onto the basketball court to warm up, the fans in the audience cheered loudly.Although they are just a simple dunk, but for the fans, this is the first show of the game.
The rule of the first round of the slam dunk contest is that you can only complete one dunk in 1 minute. Of course, if you are not satisfied with the first dunk within 1 minute, you can also complete the second dunk.In the end, the referee will score all your dunks.
Some referees may think that the first one is better than the second one, so he also has the right to choose the first one to score, but the referee must choose the one he thinks is better for scoring.
In the end, the referee will judge your 1-minute performance, and the 4 with the highest scores will enter the second round.There is also 1 minute in the second round, and the two with the highest scores will enter the final round, and then the final winner of tonight will be determined.
The order of appearances is determined by lottery on the spot. In fact, the previous two games were also decided by lottery, but they were completed in the background. This time, the lottery was placed in front of the stage to increase suspense.
It has to be said that the fans' attention to the All-Stars has raised everyone's emotions just after the lottery, but the order of the lottery was not announced, and even Xing Tian and Taylor on the referee's bench complained.
But they complained about it, they turned over the cards in front of them, there were ten cards in total, and the scores ranged from one to ten, that is, after the next players came up to perform, they directly scored the opponents.
Xing Tian found that the rules and scoring rules were different from the dunk contest he had watched before, but the decision was still in the hands of the referee.
The first person to play with a basketball was Kobe. He wore a Lakers uniform and his explosive head immediately became the focus of the court.
"Kobe!" Taylor, who was next to Xing Tian, yelled. It could be seen that she would go back to Staples to watch the game when she was free, and she had become one of Kobe's fans.
When Kobe got the ball near the middle circle, the game time began to turn. Slowly Kobe walked up, and when he came outside the three-point line, he suddenly accelerated and rushed to the inside.
After turning a hundred and 180 degrees, Rhino Mochizuki dunked the basketball in his hand into the basket steadily, and the audience immediately burst into warm cheers, but Kobe seemed dissatisfied with this.
Walked beyond the three-point line again, and once again quickly reached the basket with the basketball.The basketball passed through his crotch and passed from his left hand to his right hand. A big lever dunked the ball into the basket again!
"8 points!" Stern scored a moderate score!
"10 points!" Taylor really supported Kobe just like he did before the game.
"8 points!" Xing Tian shook his head. Although Kobe's dunk was very coherent, the difficulty of the movement was too low.And crotch dunking on the basketball court has always been prohibited.
If someone uses this dunk method in the game, the opponent will feel that this is disrespectful to him, and there may be a dispute very likely, so the players will subconsciously tell themselves not to use such a dunk in the game.
Boasting that the hand-changing dunk was Kobe's original creation, it was the key dunk when he might have won the slam dunk championship in 96, but after that, this dunk was banned by everyone.
"8 points!" Phil Jackson also scored such a score. In his opinion, Kobe could do better. This one can't fully show Kobe's advantages.
34 points, a score that doesn't look high or low, this makes Kobe very dissatisfied, but his game is over, he can only sit on the bench and wait for the next person to perform.
"Mr. Xing Tian, we all know that you and Ke Ke are good friends, why did you give such a score of eight!" The host interviewed Xing Tian before the players played.
"I think Kobe can do better!" Xing Tian nodded. Although Kobe is his good brother, he has never been good at dunking, so Xing Tian is also very fair.
But it didn't affect the cheers of the fans at all, and they even shouted 10 points one by one. It can be felt that they were very satisfied with Kobe's dunk just now.
The second player to play was actually Michael Jordan. Xing Tian also looked at Jordan with great interest, wondering what kind of dunking pose this flying man would use.
Jordan walked out with the basketball, and was cheered loudly by the fans, even louder than Kobe's. It seems that the league's number one shooting guard has been confirmed.
Jordan started from a low corner with the basketball in his hand, and then dunked the ball into the basket with a backhand after a big pull. It looked similar to Kobe's rhinoceros watching the moon just now, but Jordan's jump was higher.
Similarly, Jordan was dissatisfied with his own ball, and once again took the ball to the middle circle, and immediately accelerated and ran in.Stepping out of the free throw line, Jordan flew up and dunked the basketball into the basket with one hand.
All the fans in the audience covered their mouths in surprise. Someone actually flew over from such a long distance. It is no wonder that it is a man known as a flying man.A dunk ignited the whole court, but Jordan didn't seem to be satisfied.
Taking off from the free throw line with one step, many people in this league can complete it, so Xing Tian can't make this dunk perfect, it can only be said that it is very difficult, and he needs someone who can take off from the free throw line.
"8 points!" Sure enough, it was the man who was watching more dunks, and Stern directly played an 8-point sign.
"8 points!" Taylor hesitated for a long time, and still scored such a score. Although she really wanted to score a little lower, but Jordan's dunk was so perfect that it almost fascinated her.
"8 points!" Xing Tian also scored such a score. As a professional player, he didn't think these two dunks were too difficult.
"10 points!" Phil Jackson naturally supported his disciple very much, and scored a [-] points without hesitation.
Although there were personal emotions between the referees, it did not affect the cheers of the fans at all. In their opinion, the performance of these two individuals could reach 10 points.
The same score is 34, and the two are sitting on the same row of stools, but they have no communication.But looking at their eyes, they are very unconvinced, as if they can get more.
