Legend Raiders

Chapter 242 Individual Competition

That night.

Toyota Center is about to start tonight's Shooting Star Contest, followed by individual events in the Three-Point Contest, Slam Dunk Contest and Skills Challenge.

Compared with yesterday's attendance rate, today's Toyota Center is somewhat unsatisfactory.

of course.

Although the fans didn't buy it, Qin Tao, who was a member of the All-Stars, and the veterans who participated yesterday, all came to the stadium to cheer.

Simultaneously.

As the last three-point champion, slam dunk champion, final winner of the Skills Challenge, and a member of the Shooting Star, Kevin Love, Jeremy Evans, Parker, and Alan Houston, Rand Ree Fields and Cappy Bondstar, among others, also all appeared off the court.

Such and such.

To make the sidelines look star-studded.

And Qin Tao, who has just passed the test of the sponsor and Zarya, is definitely a little bit hard right now!

In the afternoon, because there was an event similar to walking the red carpet, Qin Tao put on a Puff Daddy's suit, Romele Yang's earphones, and a pair of famous American leather shoes. Holding an energy drink from a certain beverage company in his hand, the human-shaped shelf has attracted the attention of countless media.

of course.

None of them would say anything, at least in what Qin Tao did, he didn't try his best to promote his sponsors in the game or in NBA activities.

such as.

Qin Tao still remembers the fact that JR Smith was almost suspended by the league because of his tattoo, let alone the interesting things that his aunt Larry Johnson did back then.

Thinking wildly like this made Qin Tao's discomfort feel better.

But as the activities changed before entering the arena, Qin Tao found that he was still a little too young.

Under Zarya's torment, Qin Tao changed at least five outfits, drinks five times, and five pairs of shoes with different styles during the entire event before entering the arena.

See here.

Some veterans will say, this is just a joke, which NBA player can wear fancy clothes like Qin Tao.

But the fact is that Qin Tao is entirely thanks to Zarya.

In order to maximize Qin Tao's existing commercial value, Zarya did not give them any other aspects except adding the sponsor's own iconic items to the clauses in every signed contract.

For example, with Pladdy's sponsorship, doesn't their brand have good shoes?
Of course there will be, and it is very possible.

But Zarya didn't want to send it together because of his relationship with Qin Tao. Instead, she chose another company with fairly good strength and handed Qin Tao's off-court feet to them.

and so.

This is how such a ridiculous scene will appear, but Qin Tao's harvest is definitely greater than his depression to a degree that defies the sky.

but.

With these things basically settled, Qin Tao's sneaker sponsorship has become a big problem.

In Zarya's words, there is no need for Qin Tao to be anxious now, he can just wait for a few companies to bid.

Regarding this matter, Qin Tao is very open.

Honestly.

In his current and future career of 20 years, the stadium will occupy most of the time, as long as his competitive state does not experience a terrible decline, then the manufacturer that can win him will definitely reap a lot from him.

and so.

With Qin Tao's soaring commercial value and his already terrifying talent growing up, there is absolutely no need for him to make his choice so quickly. He understands the reason why rare goods can be lived in.

Thinking of all the things before, Qin Tao's expression was rarely relaxed.

And in the arena, there was more and more hustle and bustle. The beautiful cheerleaders of each team had already started warming up with the local staff. Everyone knew one thing, tonight's All-Stars were coming.

Soon.

As the players participating tonight entered the arena one by one dressed in fashion, sports, or gentlemanly clothes, their appearance finally attracted cheers one after another.

Qin Tao has seen this situation many times on TV in his previous life.

As long as some of these players are about to start the game, they will immediately get into the locker room, from the special audience on the long side, to the players who play on the field.

Jeremy Lin, who was part of the skills competition, and Parsons, who competed with Qin Tao yesterday, are also walking towards Qin Tao's position.

Sit down.

Qin Tao looked at Jeremy Lin and teased, "Xiao Linzi, I believe that you will not win the championship tonight!"

Hemp egg!

Jeremy Lin's good mood was completely destroyed by Qin Tao at that time, and he raised his hand to teach this guy with a negative EQ a lesson.

Qin Tao already knew his reaction, he laughed and laughed, and finally became serious: "Brother, I am afraid that you will be nervous, so this is just to make you happy. I believe you will definitely be in the top three!"

Jeremy Lin's mood improved slightly, but Qin Tao didn't directly say that he might be the champion, which made him even more depressed.

But thinking about tonight's opponent, Jeremy Lin really felt that his confidence was much lower.

The players participating in the skills competition, except for the previous champion Tony Parker, whether it is Jrue Holiday, Brandon Knight, or Lillard, who has already shown his star demeanor, are basically not easy to mess with people.

Here I have to say the importance of physical fitness in this individual event. If Jeremy Lin's physical fitness can be better, the final result will surely be much better.

of course.

Since it is called a skills challenge, it definitely requires more than just physical fitness, at least what a defender should have. You have to master the basics.

Soon.

After Jeremy Lin had no choice but to adjust, the participating teams of shooting stars entered the field one after another tonight.

With their appearance, there were waves of cheers from the originally chaotic stands, as if the fans of these guys were happy.

This year's shooting stars are basically the same as in previous years. They are still divided into two teams and four teams.

The Eastern team is led by two active NBA players, Chris Bosh and Brook Lopez.

The first team, in Bosh's case, consisted of legendary dunk Dominic Wilkins and Chicago Sky star Sven Cash.

The second team, under the leadership of Lopez, has the strongest 1.6-meter Maggsy Boggs on the surface and Indiana Fever star Tamika Keggins has become his teammates.

And the lineup of the West team seems to be a little something.

In the first team led by Harden, aside from the Seattle Storm star Tina Thompson, the alien Sam Cassell, who has been retired for many years, is a big deal for any long-term Rockets fan. Quite familiar, this guy is one of the champions of the Olajuwon era.

In the second western team led by Russell Westbrook, in addition to Maya Moore who participated in the Masters yesterday, Robert Horina is also one of the Rockets' former heroes.

This can be seen.

The league has put a lot of effort into this year's All-Stars.
