Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 346 Champion of the Skills Contest

Among the four contestants, the Thunder's Jeremy Lin was the first to appear. When the timer started, Jeremy Lin started a series of operations. In this level of competition, it can be seen that Jeremy Lin's ball handling is a bit sluggish compared to Curry, and it is not smooth enough, but this is also related to his personal style. When he came to the first pass point, Jeremy Lin hit it with one hit, but then at the second pass point, Jeremy Lin seemed not stable enough. After the first pass, his body moved ahead of time unconsciously, and the ball failed as expected Going into the net, it wasted a certain amount of time when turning back, which also affected his rhythm. It was not until the third attempt that Jeremy Lin passed the ball in place. Completed all the movements, the time was 44.4 seconds, this result basically missed the final.

Lillard, who was the second to appear on the field, was slower than Jeremy Lin in terms of rhythm. Maybe he learned the lesson from Jeremy Lin. At the two passing points, Lillard moved his body after confirming that the ball entered the net. There was a certain amount of time lost, but it was enough to ensure that his results could firmly suppress Jeremy Lin and take the initiative to enter the finals. He made a steady layup for the last time. Lillard's time was 36.9 seconds, and judging from his expression, Lillard still has room to spare.

Lillard's performance in previous years could have steadily entered the finals, which also put huge pressure on Holiday, who played third. Behind him is Curry, who is in full form this year. Curry can flexibly adopt game strategies based on the previous results, and Holiday can only take the initiative in the game if he surpasses Lillard's results. Under pressure, Holiday made a mistake in his performance, and was caught by an obstacle while dribbling, directly declaring himself out.

In this way, the prerequisite for Curry to enter the finals only needs to exceed Jeremy Lin's 44.4 seconds, which is no pressure for Curry. Compared with Lillard's calmness, Curry's dribbling looks more agile, and he even showed off his back dribbling when bypassing obstacles. If you say that this skill in this aspect is more fancy than Curry in the league, I'm afraid he can't. That's Irving and Crawford. Because of the ample time, Curry can even pause for a while to increase his confidence when passing the ball. Both passes were also hit the ground, and he completed the last layup. Curry took 36.6 seconds. He was faster than Lillard, and this result also helped him win the dominant position in the finals.

After a live performance, the final officially began. Standing on the starting line, Lillard's fighting spirit became more vigorous. As he expected, the opponent in the final was indeed Curry.

Sure enough, after receiving the ball from the referee again, Lillard's speed became faster and his movements became more agile. The audience at the scene could feel Lillard's style in the final and the preliminaries was completely different. What's even more commendable is that despite the more aggressive style of play, until the end of the game with a slam dunk, Lillard did not make a single mistake and completed the game with a perfect 32.8 seconds.

Lillard's perfect performance puts pressure on Curry. When the whistle sounded, Curry also showed a performance that he had never shown in the preliminaries. While his speed improved, each project was completed with great ease, calmness, and agility. It doesn't look like a game at all, but playing on the court, and people's hearts are beating violently with Curry's every movement, turn, pass, and shot.

"slightly!"

As the basketball hit the net for the third time, the hearts of the fans finally fell to the ground. At this time, people remembered to check the results.

29.3 seconds!

For some reason, in the preliminaries, both of them had the ability to save, but Curry still let Lillard see the gap.

After a short period of silence, the Toyota Center erupted into astonishing cheers, like a tsunami, quickly sweeping through the entire basketball arena. Curry's performance is too perfect, like a work of art, fascinating.

Lillard walked up to Curry and stretched out his hand to him. Curry was taken aback, smiled, grabbed Lillard's hand, and stood up.

As the new favorite of fans this season, Curry's smart and elegant style of play is still very popular with fans. Even at the Rockets' home court, Curry also received high cheers when he delivered his acceptance speech.

After the skills competition, the performance of the three-point contest was followed. In the Nets, Korver participated in this duel on behalf of the team's three outside artillery. Other contestants included Bonner of the Spurs and Cavaliers. Irving, Novak of the Knicks, George of the Warriors, Anderson of the Pelicans. Among them are two former Nets players.

The favorite to win the game is of course Novak of the Knicks. This white shooter claims to rely on one-handed three-pointers to gain a foothold in the NBA. He once led the league in three-pointers with 47.2% in the 2010-11 season. This also allowed him to win a 4-year 15 million contract with the Knicks. As for his other data indicators, he is not qualified as a foreign aid in the CBA.

The first player to play was Paul George of the Warriors. In fact, from the perspective of shooting percentage, George is still some distance away from the three-pointer contest, but for the declining three-pointer contest, some names with enough weight are needed Increased attention, so George's 36.7% shooting rate was also successfully selected. As for the two players, Irving and Curry, it is more appropriate for Curry to participate in the three-point contest, and it is more appropriate for Irving to participate in the skill competition, but it is self-willed for both of them to drop.

In terms of strength, George is one of the best among the six contestants, but compared to the three-point shooting, George is a bit stretched. After the game started, he missed all the first three shots at the first point, and he missed all three shots at the fourth point. At the time of the ball, he recovered a little bit of the sight, but when it came to the last flower ball with the heaviest weight, he actually shot a three-point shot, and only scored 1 point for the first point.

The first point only scored one point. If George can't adjust his state as soon as possible in the next four points, then his trip to the All-Star Weekend may really only focus on participation.

I don’t know if it’s because of lack of strength, or because the hip stretch at the first point affected George’s mentality. In the next game, George’s performance in the next four points was still not very satisfactory, and he seemed to feel that time was running out. He seemed a little impatient when handling every ball. After he gave up on himself and missed the last bouquet, his preliminary score was only 12 points. If this score can make it to the final, this three-point contest can become history. The worst session ever.

Of course, the loss in the three-point contest was a foregone conclusion, but it did not affect George's mood after the game. Jordan only shot 5 points back then, so he is still the god of basketball, right?
