Super all-around point guard

Chapter 755 Skill Challenge Champion!

"Hahaha, I even dribbled the ball in the Skills Challenge. I know why the Skills Challenge has to increase the size of the players. It turned out to be funny!"

Cousins ​​dribbled the ball to his feet and it went out of bounds, which made the audience laugh. The Skills Challenge is a place to showcase players' skills. To participate in this game must be a confidence in one's own skills. However, passing a small obstacle caused the dribble to go out of bounds... I am afraid even elementary school students will not be able to stand it.

And before the game, Cousins ​​deliberately put down his big words in front of Xie Chen who had already advanced, telling Xie Chen to wait for him in the final...

Xie Chen couldn't laugh or cry at the moment.

As an opponent, Anthony Davis was also happy, because Anthony Davis was born as a guard, and he was not so tall. In the third year of high school, he suddenly grew from 1.9 meters to more than [-] meters. Even if Cousins ​​​​does not make mistakes, it is difficult to beat Anthony Davis.

For the test of passing, it is not difficult for Anthony Davis. He hit it with one hit, but Cousins ​​walked slowly, but failed to throw it three times.

Anthony Davis took the lead all the way. Everyone thought he was going to win. However, on the three-point line, he missed his shots repeatedly. On the contrary, Cousins, who couldn't dribble steadily, came from behind and hit it with one hit. He beat Anthony Davis with a three-pointer!
"It turned out that Cousins ​​​​won? God, I can't believe it."

"It seems that the most important thing in this game is the last three-pointer. No matter how much the lead is ahead, it is useless if the three-pointer cannot be shot in the first time. In this way, it is not impossible for the big man to fight against the small man. However, if the winner of the small man is Xie, there is still a possibility of not winning. Xie's three-pointer is too accurate. In the open situation, it is impossible to miss two shots in a row, and Xie can definitely take the time to shoot two balls."

The first round of the game ended here, and the second round was advanced to Thomas Jr. and Xie Chen in the point guard group, and Cousins ​​and Downs in the big man group.

At this time, some children's performances were performed on the scene, and everyone took this opportunity to rest.

Both Cousins ​​and Towns, the two opponents, are quite confident, saying that they are the one to enter the finals, while Xie Chen and Thomas Jr. are relatively quieter, and Thomas Jr. has been smiling and silent, which makes Xie Chen wonder what Thomas Jr. is thinking. Does he want to win himself just like Lillard?If so, what should I do if I encounter the situation where two people go hand in hand for a layup again?To let or not to let?

"Isiah Thomas doesn't target me like Damian Lillard. If he wants to win that much, I'll let him layup and then bet on a super long three-pointer." Xie Chen has planned ahead of time what will happen on the court later, so as to avoid hesitation when he gets it. Thomas Jr. does not have the terrifying super long three-pointer ability, and Xie Chen is still confident in defeating him.

Soon, the second round began.

Yang Jian said: "The match between Xie Chen and Thomas Jr. will start soon, and one of them will advance to the final."

Zhang Weiping said: "If it was a whole field of running without any obstacles, then Thomas Jr. might lag behind Xie Chen in speed, but this kind of sprint that tests dribbling skills, because Thomas Jr. is small, so the speed is definitely not inferior to Xie Chen. If the three-pointer hits one more shot, I am afraid he will beat Xie Chen."

Xie Chen also cheered up. If it was the slam dunk contest to win the championship, Xie Chen was confident that he could just show the coolest slam dunk moves, but if it was the skills challenge, the gap between him and his opponent would not be very big. Any mistake in a detail might make the opponent beat him.

Game start!
The fans at the scene also became enthusiastic, and obviously regarded this duel as the final!
Yang Jian also began to explain enthusiastically: "Little Thomas is so fast! He is ahead of Xie Chen. He came to the frontcourt, passed the test, hit it with one hit, Xie Chen also made a hit, and Little Thomas is still in the lead!"

Before the start of the duel between the two, Thomas Jr. smiled innocently and didn't speak a word. He seemed to have no ambitions, but when he entered the field, he burst out with such a strong desire to win.

Little Thomas led Xie Chen all the way, and everyone became nervous. Will Little Thomas keep leading like this until the end?

The key depends on whether Thomas Jr. can make a three-pointer. If he makes it once, Xie Chen will really lose!

Little Thomas rushed back for a layup at lightning speed, glanced at Xie Chen's position out of the corner of his eye, and then jumped up for a layup. What no one expected was that Thomas, who was too eager, failed to make a layup!
The basketball swiped around the hoop and came out!

"Little Thomas didn't make a layup!" Yang Jian was also shocked.

"This is an opportunity for Xie Chen!" Zhang Weiping said excitedly.

Xie Chen quickly flew up and made a quick layup. Xie Chen far outperformed Thomas Jr. in terms of height and jumping height. He was closer to the basket, so the probability of an unsuccessful layup was basically zero.

Everyone knows that the best three-pointers in the league are Xie Chen and Curry. Their shooting percentages against their opponents are sky-high, let alone open three-pointers?

Not to mention 100% hit, the probability of not hitting is also very low.

After Thomas finished his second layup, he was very unwilling, and knew that Xie Chen must not be allowed to shoot a three-pointer, otherwise Thomas would lose, so Thomas also imitated Xie Chen, throwing a three-pointer directly at the midfield!
"LOGOSHOT! Thomas wants to copy Xie?!"

The scene was suddenly shocked, and Xie Chen also felt this weird sound. He immediately realized that Thomas might have thrown it behind.

Sure enough, Thomas Jr. threw the ball before Xie Chen made a shot!

After Xie Chen knew that Thomas Jr. was shooting, he didn't shoot again. Instead, he watched the direction of the ball. If Thomas Jr. could hit such a long three-pointer, then Xie Chen had no choice but to admit defeat.

boom!
The basketball bounces out of the frame!

Thomas Jr. was still not so lucky, and the nervous audience at the scene also breathed a sigh of relief, because the result of this matchup had already been reached at this time, and after seeing that he missed the shot, Thomas Jr. did not go any further, and squatted on the ground in frustration.

"Haha, Xie Chen still won." Zhang Weiping congratulated in advance.

Xie Chen also calmed down on the court, and without using any skills, he slowly shot a three-pointer.

boom!
The ball even bounced out...

"Uh..." Xie Chen didn't expect such a low-probability event to happen.

Thomas Jr. was still squatting in the half court without moving, so Xie Chen took another ball and shot again.

boom!
The shot hit the iron again...

"Well, consecutive misses are quite rare for Xie Chen..." Yang Jian didn't know what to say.

The scene was even more uproarious. Many people were worried that Xie Chen's three-point form was not good today. Such a shooting rate would not win the three-point contest championship!

Thomas Jr. was the most confused. He thought that Xie Chen would make the first shot, so after he missed a three-pointer at halftime, he didn't go any further. If he had known that Xie Chen would miss two shots in a row, he would have quickly stepped forward to take the second one. Maybe he would win now!
"Damn it!" Little Thomas was extremely depressed.

Then, Xie Chen took the third shot and finally made it.

At this time, both Anthony Davis and Cousins' eyes lit up, one of three three-pointers. At this level, we can beat it!

After Xie Chen advanced to the finals, Thomas Jr. stepped forward and asked Xie Chen, "Did you really miss the first two three-pointers just now, or did you miss them on purpose?"

Xie Chen looked at Thomas Jr.’s serious face. If he was told that he really missed the shot, Thomas Jr. would vomit blood in regret. Xie Chen smiled and said, “Of course I didn’t make the shot on purpose. Dude, I’m the champion of the three-point contest. If you follow me, I guarantee that the first shot will be over.”

Little Thomas finally felt a little better after hearing this.

Xie Chen's entry into the finals is also exciting for the big men group, because Xie Chen is the No.1 in the league, and will even be the No.1 in history in the future. Everyone wants to challenge Xie Chen, and even wants to win Xie Chen. Karl Downs is undoubtedly more ambitious than Cousins.

Immediately afterwards, the big man group competed for the place in the final. Karl Downs and Cousins ​​became very serious. At the beginning, the two ran at a high speed, and neither made a mistake. In the passing link, Downs hit a hit, while Cousins ​​missed three times.
"Downs advanced to the final!" Yang Jian said.

At this time, Cousins ​​was still in the backcourt, and he didn't have time to shoot his three-pointer!
Zhang Weiping was also very surprised: "Towns can do it. He is so far ahead of Cousins. This is probably shorter than Xie Chen's time. The final is really hard to say."

Seeing Downs being so brave, some fans even began to gloat in advance: "If Xie Chen lost to a big man in the skills challenge, wouldn't it be too shameful? Haha."

Karl Downs is very proud. If he can beat Xie Chen in the final, and then his teammate Zach Lavin beats Xie Chen in the slam dunk contest, then tonight belongs to Xie Chen's night, and the two Timberwolves players will take most of it away!
Xie Chen could tell what this guy was thinking just by looking at Downs' eyes. Xie Chen didn't deny Downs' ability and future status, but now, this guy doesn't want to win him, not even once.

The finals are about to begin!
The small man is against the big man, the league's No. [-] point guard is facing the future No. [-] center in the league. Everyone thinks that Towns' challenge to Xie Chen can be called a "near miss." He only has a [-]% chance of winning, because first, his speed is not as good as Xie Chen's.

But Downs was still full of confidence.

"My speed is not bad, my pass is not bad, and I can hit a three-pointer if I am lucky. If I make some small moves, I may not be able to beat him. Xie is also the most unique player in the league. There is nothing wrong with me learning from him, hehe." Towns had a weird smile on his face, not knowing what the hell he was thinking.

Yang Jian: "The game has started! Xie Chen and Downs are both very fast! Xie Chen quickly crossed the barrier and took the lead temporarily, and Downs quickly followed!"

After passing the obstacle, it is time to test the accuracy of the pass. Xie Chen is a point guard, obviously he will continue to have the advantage, and Towns also made a hit before, which cannot be underestimated.

At this time, Downs used a trick to catch up and even lead Xie Chen.

After passing the ball, he immediately rushed forward without looking at the result!

Speaking of it, this is also a kind of gamble, because once he misses throwing the ball into the circle, he has to turn back again and continue to pass the ball, but if he makes the right bet and throws it in, he will save time compared to Xie Chen.

Xie Chen didn't gamble, he just stood there after throwing the ball, and waited until he saw the ball thrown into the circle before starting it again.

Then, the two got the ball at the same time and were neck and neck again!

"Towns is chasing after him again!" Yang Jian was shocked.

As if playing his life, Downs threw the ball forward and started to run wildly. Although Xie Chen was faster, Downs took big strides, and under the meteor, he was always on the same level as Xie Chen.

But when approaching the basket, Xie Chen was still slightly faster than Downs.

Then, the two took off for a layup almost at the same time.

Xie Chen took the lead to pick up the basketball. Not surprisingly, it should be Xie Chen's ball that went into the net first.

However, what was unexpected was that Towns didn't make a layup, but a dunk!

bang!
Downs dunked the ball into the basket and got Xie Chen's ball down by the way!
"Damn it, you bastard!" Xie Chen didn't expect Tang Si to play tricks.

Many fans of Xie Chen were also aggrieved on Xie Chen's behalf: "Why are you still dunking? Showing that you can dunk? Why don't you participate in the dunk contest if you want to dunk?"

At this time, Towns had already taken the lead. Xie Chen made a quick layup, knowing that Towns might make a shot in one shot, so he had to use the LOGOSHOT again!

But who knew, Towns had expected that Xie Chen would shoot a super long three-pointer. After Xie Chen made the shot, Towns also threw the basketball, and hit Xie Chen's basketball again on the basket!
"Hahaha, he's out of the ball." Towns was very proud.

"Damn it, come again!" Xie Chen was furious, and quickly sprinted forward. Seeing that Downs was about to shoot a three-pointer, he picked up a ball and threw it directly at his direction.

With a bang, it also fell down.

There was another moment of embarrassment at the scene...

Is this playing against each other?

The two looked at each other, and they were both shooting the third shot at the fastest speed. It was Towns who shot the ball first. Xie Chen didn't make any more damage this time, but followed closely.

After Karl Downs made the shot, he stared at his basketball expectantly. In his opinion, if the ball scored, he would win!

In fact, Towns, who took the lead in shooting a three-pointer, did make it.

But the champion of the skills challenge is not him, but Xie Chen!

(Guess why.)
