Chapter 450 The Creativity of Dunk Action!
Before you know it, a whole year has passed. Last year's All-Star Weekend in New York made Xie Chen famous all over the world. He shot and killed Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, James Harden and others in the three-point contest. In the All-Star Game, he shocked the world with his long-hidden LaVine dunk ability!
Xie Chen still remembers the moment when James dunked in the All-Star Game. James hit the ground behind his back and passed the ball to Xie Chen.

Last year's All-Star Game, there were so many memorable things. Xie Chen also won the MVP of the All-Star Game. He was basically contracted for the All-Star Weekend. He was the most shining star in it. Besides basketball, there was Scarlett Johansson. Scarlett said that she would go to watch the game this year.

After playing the Grizzlies on the 10th, Xie Chen returned to New York on the 11th and parted ways with his teammates. After all, not everyone had the opportunity to participate in the All-Star Weekend on February 2-13. The New York Knicks only had Xie Chen and Anthony selected for the All-Star Game. Porzingis was going to Toronto because he was a rookie this year and was going to participate in the All-Star Rookie Challenge.

Others, such as veterans like Ray Allen Odom, will stay at home with their families or go out for two days during the All-Star Game, and they are happy and relaxed.

In the two days before going to Toronto to participate in the All-Stars, Xie Chen was not absolutely relaxed. He had to prepare for one thing, and that was the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest.

This year's All-Star Game, if you want to talk about the most eye-catching event, it is definitely not the All-Star Game on the last day, but the Slam Dunk Contest!

Xie Chen's entry alone is enough to attract the attention of many fans. This year's slam dunk contest also attracted LeBron James, who has dominated the league's No.1 for a long time!You know, how many people in the world look forward to James' participation in the dunk contest!The opponent this time is Xie Chen again. In addition to Xie Chen, last year's slam dunk contest champion Zach Lavin and violent dunker Westbrook, needless to say, this is definitely the best slam dunk contest in recent years. Some people even say that this session will surpass the slam dunk contest in 2000.

If you want to win the championship in the dunk contest, you must have strength, but what is more important is creativity and movement. What kind of dunk movement to choose is a question that these four people must carefully consider.

Cleveland, James' basketball gym.

LeBron James, James' agent, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love, several people got together, and they were all making suggestions for James' next dunk contest.

James has been preparing for the slam dunk contest since the previous week, and he has thought about a few moves, and the training has been very good. He tried one just now, and several teammates applauded. James also asked them: "Brothers, do you have any good slam dunk moves? Hurry up and recommend them to me. The slam dunk contest is only a few days away."

Owen smiled and said: "It seems that you attach great importance to this slam dunk contest. I think your move just now is very good. It is difficult and can show your domineering. The slam dunk contest has been going on for so many years, and the good moves have basically been played by others. No one can play something new. I think you should think about what kind of moves Xie or LaVine will make. Know what the opponent is playing, and then carry out targeted PK, it will have good results."

James nodded, touched Owen's head, and said with a smile: "You're right, brother. As for what LaVine and Xie will do, I can guess about the same. You can know by referring to LaVine's dunk contest last year. It's nothing more than changing hands in the air and spinning in the air. Their dunks are indeed beautiful, but not as powerful as mine. I believe my dunks will definitely shock the audience even more!"

Seeing that James was so confident, Love did not forget to remind: "LeBron, you need to shock not only the audience, but also the judges, especially the great Jordan."

James knows that Jordan prefers Xie Chen, and his attitude towards James has never been very good. Even though James has said countless times that Jordan is his idol, James quickly smiled and said: "Don't worry, I believe he and Vince will give me high marks."

At this time, Dellavedova on the side came forward: "Why do you only talk about Xie and Zach Lavin, but not Russell Westbrook?"

James smiled softly: "Westbrook was dragged up by Xie to make up the numbers. He is not scary, and he can't do anything with dunks. If he is shorter or taller, he will pose a threat to me, but now he doesn't need to think about it."

Dellavedova nodded and continued to ask, "Boss, do you need me to pass the ball to you during the slam dunk contest? Or do you dunk over my head?"

James rubbed his chin: "If I pass the ball, I will ask Love or Irving to help me. As for the dunk on the flying man's head, I have been tired of playing it. I don't want to play this kind of game for the time being. Wait and see. If necessary, I will notify you."

Seeing that Dellavedova wanted to help James dunk, at this time, Love suddenly had an idea in his mind, excitedly grabbed James on the spot, and said, "LeBron, I thought of a dunk for you!"

It was rare for James to see Love so excited, and immediately realized that this was definitely a good idea, and quickly said: "Brother, what did you think of, tell everyone quickly!"

Love turned his gaze to Dellavedova, then patted Delray on the shoulder, and said: "LeBron, compared to Zach LaVine and Xie, your advantage is strength. You are a powerful dunker, so why not show your advantage to the extreme!"

James is still in the fog: "I don't quite understand, how can I show my strength to the extreme in the dunk? Also, what does this have to do with Della?"

Love smiled and said: "I thought of a move for you. When you dunk, let Della rush towards you. After you knocked Della away in the air, you dunked the ball hard! With your physical resistance, Della will definitely be knocked out by you. Of course, Della can also act a little more exaggerated and fly a little farther. This kind of dunk must have a great shock to the judges, and it will hit the opponent's dunk. No one has ever used it in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest!"

James grinned from ear to ear after hearing this: "I like this action! I have always felt that dunking in the slam dunk contest is not as interesting as dunking in the official game, especially because I don't enjoy the fun of dunking people. It's just that showing off moves is not my favorite, and dunking opponents is what I am best at! Della, are you willing to help me with this? You may be injured because of this!"

Dellavedova has always wanted to do something to help James, and seeing that the boss finally has a place for him, he excitedly said: "I am willing!"

James said proudly: "Thank you, you will lose this dunk contest!"

……

Minnesota, Minneapolis.

Even if he won the slam dunk contest last year, the most nervous and concerned player in this year's slam dunk contest is none other than Zach Lavin. He has been thinking about the slam dunk contest since a month ago and has been training every day. Even the training for the slam dunk contest is more important to him than the official competition.

Even if he won the slam dunk contest once, LaVine will face opponents of a completely different level this time. Almost none of the contestants from last year are well-known. Winning the championship will not have much influence. It will only make people think that you dunk well. This year is different. This year's opponents Xie Chen, James, and Westbrook are all top five players in the league today!
LaVine has no hope of defeating them in the official game, and he is not even qualified to challenge them, so he really wants to beat them in the slam dunk contest!

In the basketball hall, watching Zach Lavin dunk another beautiful dunk, teammate Wiggins clapped his hands: "Brother, your dunk is even better than last year, I believe you will definitely win the championship!"

Facing the encouragement from his teammate Wiggins, LaVine didn't make a sound. He looked very serious. He picked up the basketball and walked in front of Wiggins, saying, "You and Xie are already able to participate in the All-Star Game. I don't know how long I have to wait for this opportunity. This All-Star Weekend, only the slam dunk contest is my stage. I must win another championship!"

Wiggins patted LaVine on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement. He still understood LaVine's current mood very well.Wiggins averaged 23 points per game this season, and the Timberwolves' record has improved dramatically compared to last season, and they still have a great chance to enter the playoffs. Therefore, Wiggins was also selected as an All-Star this year, but Wiggins did not have this honor last year, but Xie Chen was selected in the same session. ?

However, LaVine himself knows that there is indeed a big gap between his own strength and the two of them. First of all, he does not have a particularly strong body, nor does he have a good shot. Only speed and bounce cannot gain a foothold in the NBA.Therefore, he clearly knows that if he wants to become famous now, he must only rely on dunking.

Zach Lavin said: "Xie's dunk is similar to my style. I have the confidence to beat him. Russell Westbrook is not a threat. The most terrifying thing is LeBron James. He is too popular, and a quasi-Hall of Famer like him is willing to participate in the dunk contest. In the past, he will definitely be the champion."

Wiggins comforted LaVine and said: "You are right, Xie and Westbrook are not your opponents. LeBron James' style is completely different from yours. Although more people like violent aesthetics, don't forget that James is no longer young. He is 31 years old. He can't win you. You will definitely be the champion!"

Hearing what Wiggins said, LaVine also nodded excitedly, and secretly said in his heart: "Thank you, you will lose this dunk contest!"

……

Oklahoma City.

Unlike several other slam dunk contestants who are actively preparing for the competition, Westbrook is not busy training dunks or thinking about moves, but staying in his cloakroom.

Westbrook's wife, Nina, suddenly barged in and was immediately surprised: "Oh, my God, honey, why are you here? KD just called to ask how your preparations for the slam dunk contest are going, do you need him to help you think of ideas, I thought you were practicing on the basketball court, why are you..."

Nina never expected that Westbrook would still be here leisurely. Westbrook took a red frame and said, "You came just in time. How about I wear these glasses to Toronto? Oh, and this hat, isn't it cool and matching? Give me some advice."

Nina almost fainted. The slam dunk contest is a competition that fans all over the world are paying attention to. How come Westbrook doesn't seem to care at all, or is he already winning?

Nina said, "Aren't you worried about the slam dunk contest at all?"

Only then did Westbrook answer: "I didn't really like the slam dunk contest. This time I participated in it purely because I lost a bet with Xie. And it's useless to worry about it. It's impossible for me to win the championship."

After hearing this, Nina said with displeasure: "Xie is too annoying. If he insists on dragging you to the All-Stars to fulfill himself, I won't congratulate him even if he wins the slam dunk contest."

Westbrook smiled softly: "Honey, Xie can't win the slam dunk contest."

……

Everyone seems to think that Xie Chen can't win the slam dunk contest. His three opponents look down on him, let alone fans all over the world. Everyone has known Xie Chen's dunk ability for a whole year. In this year, Xie Chen dunks almost every game, and he has to play tricks every time. Basically, everyone has seen what Xie Chen can do. It is the same, but LaVine became famous before him. Even if it was only one day earlier, Xie Chen did not show the ability to surpass LaVine. Therefore, LaVine must be able to stand in front of Xie Chen, let alone James, the great god. Just "face" is enough to suppress Xie Chen.

new York.

On the basketball court in Xie Chen's villa, Xie Chen, Katie, agent Wang Zhihui, Anthony, Ci Shiping and the others gathered together to make suggestions for Xie Chen's dunk.

Xie Chen has no worries about his dunk ability. Whether it’s beautiful or violent, he has it all, but the idea of ​​dunking is a bit nerve-wracking. The dunk contest has been going on for so many years, and basically all the moves that can be done have been done by others. How can you play something new?

Xie Chen worried: "I regret that I always play fancy dunks in official games. I have done everything I can do in normal times. I'm afraid it won't be fresh if I do it in the dunk contest."

Wang Zhihui also followed up and said: "I have reminded you a long time ago, just buckle it in casually, and playing tricks will consume physical strength."

Suddenly, Anthony said: "I have an excellent idea for you!"
