After the game was over, An Luo accompanied Tang Xiaoru and Fu Yao to go out for a stroll.In fact, he has been to this city before, but he has only been to the New Orleans Arena, and he has never been to other places.
But An Luo didn't do it for shopping.He hasn't been with Tang Xiaoru and Fu Yao properly for a long time, and this All-Star Weekend is a rare opportunity.
On February 2th, the All-Star Weekend entered its second day, and the first event was a basketball skills competition.
Since An Luo was going to participate in the three-point contest, he also watched the game on the spot.
This year's skill competition is still a mode of confrontation between big men and small men.The small players include Booker of the Suns, Hayward of the Jazz, Thomas of the Celtics and Wall of the Wizards, and the big players include Cousins of the Kings, Davis of the Pelicans, and John Keech and Knicks' Porzingis.
The game will examine the player's passing, dribbling and shooting ability.The competition system is still the first round of eight players duel in pairs, and the winning side advances to the semi-finals.The semi-finals are still two-two contests, and the winner enters the final final.The first two rounds were all internal duels between big and small players, and the final final was played between big and small players.
The first game was a duel between Hayward and Wall.Both had trouble passing the ball, and three attempts were unsuccessful.Then Wall took advantage of his speed and took the lead in reaching the three-point shooting point.Unfortunately, he missed his first shot.Hayward, who arrived later, made the first shot.Therefore, he defeated Wall to advance to the semi-finals.
In the second game, Thomas faced Booker.Thomas, who was a point guard, made the first pass easily, while Booker missed three consecutive passes.Thomas used this to gain a clear advantage. After hitting the second three-pointer, he defeated Booker and met Hayward in the semifinals.
The big men's first game is between Cousins and Porzingis.Both pass the ball in one go, but Porzingis is faster off the dribble.He came to the three-point shooting point first.In the end, Porzingis made the first shot and eliminated Cousins to advance.
Then this is the contest between Davis and Jokic.Davis, as the host, received huge cheers as soon as he played.He himself also seemed very excited, passing the ball once to take the lead.It's a pity that Davis missed the first three-point shot in the back.Jokic seized the opportunity and hit a three-pointer to knock him out.In this way, Jokic and Porzingis will meet in the semifinals.
In the semifinals, Thomas and Hayward took the lead.Both were completed with one pass, with Thomas leading slightly.Both sides were in trouble at the three-point line. The first 5 shots were missed. In the end, Hayward made the first shot and he advanced to the finals.
Porzingis and Jokic met in another semifinal. Porzingis made a successful pass. Jokic wasted a lot of time on the pass. Porzingis came to the three-point line first, and in the After missing one shot, he made a second shot. Jokic, who caught up from behind, made a super long three-pointer. Unfortunately, he was still slightly behind and was eliminated.
Hayward and Porzingis compete for the eventual championship.
In the final, the two dribbled at similar speeds, and both passed the ball in one go.However, Hayward almost collided with the opponent when he made a layup, which affected his speed.Porzingis, who was the first to reach the three-point line, made the first shot and defeated Hayward to win the championship.
This is also the second year in a row that a big man has won the Skills Challenge.It can be seen how high the league's requirements for big men are now!
After the skill game is over, the three-point shooting contest is about to begin.The host at the scene began to introduce the list of players participating in the game one by one.The audience at the scene responded very enthusiastically. During the skills competition, the atmosphere was ignited again.
An Luo was the third to appear.The two guys ahead of him are Kemba Walker on the Hornets and Irving on the Cavaliers.
These two guys shot well, but both fell to the right 45 degrees.Walker didn't make a single shot from that spot and finished with 19 points.Irving was a little better than him, scored one and ended up with 20 points.
After An Luo came on stage, he still waved towards Tang Xiaoru and Fu Yao in the auditorium.
The first is the zero-degree angle position on the left.An Luo got off to a bad start.Standing outside the three-point line, he felt like the whole world was watching him shoot.He suddenly realized that he was a little nervous!But time waited for no one, he picked up the ball, bent his legs slightly, exerted strength on his toes, and then pushed the ball away.
"boom!"
The basketball hit the edge of the hoop.Bounced out.
An Luo failed to make the first goal in the All-Star Three-Point Contest.Of course, it's nothing.After all, An Luo couldn't even count the three-pointers he missed!
Keep voting!
"boom!"
Strike the iron again!
An Luo took a deep breath and dribbled the ball several times on the spot.After calming down a bit, he finally hit the third ball.
After making a shot, An Luo immediately entered the state of shooting.He shot the latter balls in a row, very fast.Of course, he didn't make all the shots, but that kind of rhythm made everyone very comfortable to watch.
In the end, An Luo scored 24 points in the preliminary round.
Gordon is fourth.No one expected that he would be the best performer in the preliminary round.Contrary to An Luo, his speed is relatively slow, but his hit rate is very high. The score of 25 points is also the highest among the first four players.
At the same time, this also means that Kemba Walker, who scored 19 points, was eliminated.Because, the three-point contest only selects the top three players to enter the final.
The excellent performances of An Luo and Gordon put a lot of pressure on the four players who played later.
Nick Young scored 18 points.
McCollum was even more out of shape. He failed to score a goal in two points and only scored 10 points.
Lowry then saved him with an even worse performance.This guy scored a total of 4 goals, one of which was a flower ball, and scored 9 points.This is also the lowest score in this three-point contest.In previous three-point contests, there were not many scores lower than him!
Last but not least was the defending champion, Klay Thompson.Even though his success in defending the title is not high, people still expect him to have a wonderful performance.
Unfortunately, he was a disappointment.
右侧零度角进了4个球,右侧45度角只进了2个,圈顶位置进了3个球,左侧45度角进了3个球。最后一个位置是特别位置,只进了2个花球。总共得到18分。
In this way, Gordon, An Luo and Irving entered the finals together to compete for this year's "three-pointer king".
