Build a Dream Dynasty

The next player to play is Anderson of the New Orleans Pelicans. In the Nets, Anderson was successfully used as a space power forward. For two consecutive seasons, his three-point shooting percentage was above 37%. Also more than 1.5, this performance finally allowed him to get a 4-year 37 million fat contract from the Pelicans. However, after coming to the Pelicans, his outside performance became more and more unstable. Although his shooting percentage has remained above 35%, and his scoring average has reached a career-high 14 points per game, his performance as a pure perimeter turret is not as good as before.

On the other hand, the system of the three-point contest itself is not good for a big man like Anderson, who moves slowly. Something went wrong. Directly cast a bridge. Next, Anderson made a goal at the second point, and the same at the third point. Although his state recovered a little at the fourth point, he hit four goals and scored 5 points, but it was too late and the game ended. He only scored 15 points at the time, slightly better than Paul George, but with such a result in previous years, he would have no chance to enter the finals.

The fans at the scene are also a little dissatisfied at the moment. Compared with the performance of the two shooters in the past, they are relatively embarrassing results. Of course, the fans are not happy.

Novak, who played third, really lived up to the favorites to win the championship. He hit all the first four goals in the first point. Although he lost the ball, Novak's mentality remained very stable. The second The point is still the first four hits, and the bouquet is lost. After all five points were voted, Novak scored a high score of 20 points, basically occupying a seat in the final.

Then it was Korver's turn to appear on the stage. Before the game, Curry, who had just won the skills competition championship, made a special trip to rub Korver's shoulders. The joyful action also made the fans burst into laughter.

After the start of the game, Korver picked up the first ball without any hesitation and threw it out. The whole action was quite coherent. Without the slightest pause, he made three of five shots in the first point, including flower balls. This result allowed him to securely score 4 points in the first point. The second point is also a five-point three, which also includes flower balls, the third point is three points, and the fourth point is five points. After the last point, his total score is fixed at Twenty points, as if to make up for the shortcomings of the previous three players in the ball, Korver hit all five balls, so even if his shooting rate is not as good as that of Novak who appeared before, the score But it was a tie.

"Good job!" Korver just walked to the sidelines when Curry grabbed his shoulders.

Korver himself seemed very calm. After all, the "mutual harm" between him and Novak directly caused the two to score high scores, but theoretically there is still a possibility of being eliminated.

The fifth player to play is the "mascot" Bonner of the Spurs. This veteran who has served in the Spurs for many years was invited by the league at the end of his career because of his special resume. A veteran's dream come true, but like Anderson, in terms of style, Bonner is not suitable for the three-pointer contest. Although his shooting speed is very fast, the continuous movement, take-off, adjustment, and shooting are not friendly to this veteran. Although Bonner also scored 12 points in the first three points, the obvious problem was excessive time-consuming, which caused him to be in a mess at the fourth point and only hit the final bouquet, and then at the fifth point, Bonner hit three ordinary balls but missed the final bouquet for a final score of 17, a marginal result.

The same is the top three in Texas, the Rockets fans at the scene still gave Bonner enough respect and paid tribute to the veteran with applause.

The most popular Irving was the last to appear on the stage. There was no preparation for procrastination. Owen stood at the bottom corner and started his performance directly.

It was jokingly called by the fans that it was time to exchange the game with Curry, so that Irving was determined to prove his shooting ability. Curry completed the slap in the face of everyone, and won the championship of the skills competition, which made the flame in Irving's heart even stronger. Entering the state of the game, Irving's concentration has increased to a very high level. All he can see in his eyes is the basket in front of him. As for the shouting of the fans in his ears, it sounds more like It's a rhythm, a rhythm that allows him to immerse himself deeper in the game.

The friction sound of the basketball passing through the net is constantly heard on the court, which makes the atmosphere of the scene constantly pushed to one climax after another. The highest scoring record in the three-point contest is 25 points. Irving's state today is quite impressive. Grasp the impact of this record.

It's finally the last flower ball. As long as he makes the last ball, Irving will become a legend in the three-point long-range shooting competition on the All-Star Weekend.

There was a muffled sound, like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of every fan. The fans who were already ready to celebrate instantly collapsed on their seats as if they had been drained of all their energy. And Owen himself also showed a regretful expression. The chance to break the record is rare. If you miss it once, you don’t know when the next time will be!

Of course, with the 25-point performance in the preliminaries tying the highest record in history, regardless of whether he wins the championship or not, Irving's own three-point shooting ability will never be questioned again.

In the finals, Korver was the first to play. He hit consecutive colored balls in the preliminaries. Korver seemed to have used up all his luck. In the finals, the pressure may be a bit high, and Korver’s performance is not as good as In the preliminaries, after five points passed, the game ended hastily with only 16 points.

In this way, it can basically be said that he has missed the championship.

Novak's performance in the next final was also not as good as in the preliminaries, with 5 points and 19 points in the end. This result is acceptable but it also depends on whether Owen's touch can continue.

Under the high expectations, Irving did not disappoint the fans who supported him. The results were also not as good as in the preliminaries, but Irving still hit 19 of all 25 basketballs steadily, including 3 flower balls. The score of 22 points ensured that Irving won the three-pointer in this competition. It has to be said that it is an extremely interesting thing for two new-generation point guards to become kings in fields that they are "not good at".

If the Skills Challenge and the Three-Point Contest are still based on strength and have hard targets, then the Slam Dunk Contest largely depends on the judges' scores and audience support, and even who the league wants to support. At least in Griffin's class, it's really nonsense to win the slam dunk king with a performance of the level of flying a car. In recent years, the slam dunk contest has obviously been exhausted in terms of creativity, starting from Nate Robinson flying over Webb, Gerald Green flying the gambling table, Nate Robinson flying Howard, Griffin flying the car head, Evans flying the oil painting, the more It's getting boring.

The Raptors, which are rich in dunkers, played by Rose and took away the dunk king. However, compared to Curry and Irving's coronation, Rose's popularity is obviously much lower.
