NBA Drunken Master: I want to play drunk basketball!

Mountain Man Dome, Indianapolis, 1985.

More than 40,000 fans have gathered at the scene, waiting for the game to begin, and Indiana's enthusiasm is enough to see the heat of this All-Star Game.

Before 1984, the NBA's All-Star Game had only one component, the East-West Game.

Since the last session, the NBA has officially introduced the dunk contest, which has also made a qualitative change in the All-Star Game that has not been very popular.

In the first All-Star Slam Dunk Contest in 1984, Larry Nance defeated "Dr. J" Irving and Wilkins "The Essence of Human Cinema" to win the championship.

This slam dunk contest can be said to have opened a precedent in the history of the NBA All-Star Game.

Including Dr. J's free-throw line dunk, Nance's dunk, windmill slalom and tie dunk, etc., are still imitated by many players today.

But Dr. J, who once won the dunk championship in another league ABA, accidentally lost to Larry Nance.

After the voting results of this year's All-Star Game were announced, Zhou Chen was also officially invited to participate in the NBA's dunk contest.

Zhou Chen's actual dunk count this season has reached a staggering 78, second only to New Jersey Nets center Daryl Dawkins' 80.

The violent center known as the "chocolate bomb" and the originator of the NBA's dunk-smashing rebounds.

In this more interesting but meaningless dunk ranking, the top ten except for Zhou Chen are all centers.

The last slam dunk contest was enthusiastically sought after by fans, so this year's dunk contest, the NBA also expanded the scale of participation.

In addition to Zhou Chen, Jordan was also invited to the list.

Nance, Dr. J, and Wilkins, the last champions and runners-up, also participated in this year's slam dunk contest.

In addition to this, there are "glider" Drexler, Darrell Griffiths, Terrence Stansbury.

The number of players participating was the highest number of players in history, 8.

The DJs at the scene began to introduce the participants of the slam dunk contest one by one.

Former champions and runners-up, Larry Nance and Dr. J, were the first to appear, prompting a round of cheers.

This was followed by the appearance of Zhou Chen and Jordan.

The two rookies have garnered enough attention this season.

From George McCann in antiquity, to later Chamberlain, Bill Russell, and Abdul-Jabbar, basketball has always been a sport ruled by giants.

Even in last year's draft, Olajuwon as a center still beat Zhou Chen and Jordan to win the title.

People seem to be tired of the monotonous and boring interior offensive tactics.

And the appearance of Zhou Chen and Jordan is like a light, a clear stream, injecting new vitality and energy into the entire alliance.

When the DJ read Zhou Chen's name, he held up the iconic wine gourd and made a toast to the audience.

Immediately, the audience at the scene also got up one after another, and responded to Zhou Chen with a toast, enthusiastic as fire.

Because in the NBA, and even in the history of basketball, there has never been a player as unrestrained and wild as Zhou Chen.

There are many drunkards in the NBA, but players who can achieve a realm like Zhou Chen and integrate fine wine and basketball have never appeared.

The appearance of Zhou Chen this season has also led to the prevalence of NBA wine culture.

When you come to watch Zhou Chen's game live, you can't even be called a fan of Zhou Chen without a drink with your friends.

At the same time, the Huaxia Mao subsidiary on the other side of the ocean is also crazy, because their overseas sales continue to refresh historical highs.

The factor behind all this is because of Zhou Chen's drive.

Moutai also got in touch with Jenny, Zhou Chen's agent, before the start of the All-Star Game weekend, and the two sides reached a contract about the spokesperson.

Although the annual endorsement fee of 500,000 Huaxia coins they gave was not high, Zhou Chen still insisted that Jenny accept the contract.

Zhou Chen understands that at this time, you can't just look at money, and being able to carry forward domestic products overseas is the most important.

The point is that after he becomes the spokesperson of Maozi, he doesn't have to worry about drinking in the future.

In addition, Zhou Chen wears the "AZ" series customized by Nike, the hottest style in the current sports brand industry.

Adidas and Converse looked at Nike's sales and shed tears of remorse, regretting why they didn't reach an endorsement agreement with Zhou Chen in the first place.

In contrast, Jordan's appearance has quite a few nouveau riche appearances.

Dressed in an Adidas jersey, sneakers, and a large rustic gold chain around his neck, as if to tell the world that he is rich.

The two have not seen each other since their last confrontation.

Zhou Chen stepped forward, gave Jordan a big hug, and said:

"I heard that you have prepared a lot of tricks tonight? Ready to win?

Jordan showed a kind smile and said mysteriously: "Keep it secret! "

Cut~" Zhou Chen glanced at him with disdain.

In his previous life, he didn't watch Jordan's dunk contest highlights, and he already knew all about those actions.

If he takes out the dunking action of Carter, LaVine, and Gordon, I am afraid that he will not scare this group of people who have never seen the world to death!

After a simple warm-up exercise, the much-anticipated 1985 Slam Dunk Contest officially kicked off.

The first to play was Dominic Wilkins, wearing the Hawks' No. 21 jersey

, who took the ball outside the three-point line in the bottom right corner.

It's a dribbling jump!

Quickly kill from near the bottom line to the bottom of the basket, and come a reflexive lever folding snap!

Although the action looks unremarkable, there is no difficulty.

But Wilkins' strength is his ability to combine the power and beauty of a dunk, and it combines well.

The whole process is very stretching.

The judges on the sidelines also gave a high score of 49 points!

The second to play was Drexler of the Blazers.

As a famous jumping man in the league, although the glider's dunking talent is very good, it is obviously not too serious in the study of movements.

He started from outside the three-point line on the right and came to the bottom of the basket with a reflexive one-handed dunk and scored only 39 points!

Griffith, who came out next, was much the same, also a backhand dunk, but switched one hand to two hands in the air and ended up scoring only 38 points.

Immediately it was Jordan's turn to play.

Before he came on the field, Zhou Chen quipped with him: "Are you going to use the big loop with your hands?" Jordan

found that the action he had prepared in advance was actually predicted by Zhou Chen, and his face was shocked and incredible.
