Chapter 202 On Pretentiousness—I, Gatsby, will never be with anyone in my life!
The next day's slam dunk contest can only be said to be lackluster. The defending champion Nate Robinson, Shannon Brown, Gerald Wallace and DeMar DeRozan participated in this year's slam dunk contest.

Facing the impact of rookie DeMar DeRozan, Robinson narrowly defeated his opponent in the final with 51% of the votes. He successfully defended the dunk contest and won the dunk king for the third time.The highly anticipated Shannon Brown's dunk performance in the two rounds of preliminaries was mediocre. He only scored 78 points and was eliminated early.

Robinson and DeRozan used two rounds to decide the winner in the final. Robinson's second move was clean and neat. After he hit the ball on the board, he followed up and jumped up. After catching the ball in the air, he reversed and pulled the back button to complete the move. Later, he also took the colored balls from the cheerleaders of the Cowboys, not forgetting to entertain the atmosphere of the scene.DeRozan's last move was a one-step jump from inside the free throw line, and he dunked in after a windmill move.

In the end, Shelley Miller announced the results of the slam dunk contest. Robinson narrowly defeated DeRozan with 51% of the votes. He became the champion of the slam dunk contest for the third time.

Neither the slam dunk contest nor the skills contest aroused much love from the audience because they were too ordinary. Fans are looking forward to this year's three-point contest, because the competition in this year's three-point contest is very fierce. Not only last year's defending champion Cook, There are also superstars like Pierce participating, as well as Curry and Gatsby, two young people who have crazy three-point performances in the Rookie Challenge, which makes the fans look forward to it very much.

The lineup of the on-site spectator team was also very luxurious. Superstars such as Garnett, Anthony, Kobe, James and Howard came to the audience. After Gatsby entered the field, he hurried over to say hello to these people. When shaking hands with other rookies, these superstars basically None of them stood up, but when Gatsby came over, Anthony, Kobe, James, Howard and others all stood up. Garnett was sitting firmly on the bench, but everyone else stood up. He also had to stand up, and he secretly wondered what kind of magical power this Gatsby had, which made Kobe James, a few superstars with high hearts and proud hearts, stand up to greet him.

Kobe's usually serious face also smiled very enthusiastically today. He hugged Gatsby and said, "Come on, I'm here for you today!"

Gatsby smiled: "Thank you, Kobe, I am very honored!"

James was also very enthusiastic, and took the initiative to give Gatsby a set of common fancy high-fives between blacks. Gatsby had to work hard when he first came to the NBA, so he learned some basic high-fives.

Anthony is also very enthusiastic, but his heart is very complicated. He fell out with the team, and now he has proposed to be traded, but the team is still lingering. Of course, he wants to go to New York most. If it was before, Of course he was the well-deserved leader in New York in the past, but it may not be the case now. Although Gatsby is a rookie, Anthony is not absolutely sure that he can beat him with the strength he has shown. Anthony has a lot of considerations. On the one hand, he wants a A good teammate, but on the one hand, he wants to be the boss, so his mood is quite complicated.

When Gatsby was warming up, he saw Schwarzenegger watching the battle. Although the hero of the year has become the current governor, his demeanor is still the same as before.

Pierce was the first to play. Pierce's appearance aroused the cheers of the fans, because he was the biggest star in the three-point contest. People were looking forward to his performance. Gatsby sat next to him and smiled. He was the last to appear Players, this order has both advantages and disadvantages for him. If the person in front does not perform well, he will have more psychological advantages. If he performs well, then he will be under the greatest pressure, but it is better than being the first to take the shot. .

Pierce seemed a bit slow, and only scored 5 points in the first two points, but he felt better and better after that, and finally scored 17 points. This result is already considered good, after all, the competition system has not been reformed yet.The reform of the competition system will not take place until 2015. At that time, the full score of the three-point contest was 4 points higher than it is now, because players can choose to fill up 5 flower balls worth 2 points at any shooting point.

Billups played second. The veteran looked very good. He scored four goals in a row at the beginning, but unfortunately he only scored two "money balls". He also ended the preliminaries with 17 points.

The third is Stephen Curry, who hit four goals in each of the first two points, but missed the "money ball". He finally scored 18 points, the highest score so far.

The fourth player to play was Frye. Because he stepped on the line at the top of the circle, his score was affected and he scored 15 points. The three players in front had higher scores than him. He has already missed the final.

The defending champion Cook made his final appearance. He found the sight at the fourth shooting point, but it was too late. With 15 points, he had to end his defending tour early.

The last one to play was Gatsby. As soon as Gatsby came on the stage, the audience cheered, and the volume was much crazier than when Pierce came on the field. Although Pierce is very capable, he has always been tepid in the league. The fans of the Walters, his fans are really not many, and on a stage like the All-Star, besides the fans, there are also many tourists who choose to come here to watch. Gatsby’s popularity is not only in the basketball circle , He still has many movie fans, and many female fans who don't like to watch football but love to watch their faces.

Pierce heard a female fan shouting, "Gates is such a man!"So handsome, I like it so much!Pierce looked at his thick arms, and then at Gats's arms which were obviously thinner than his own, and couldn't help curling his lips——I'm called a man, okay?
Pierce didn't know that in the eyes of women, a man meant good-looking and muscular, but his name was ugly and his muscles were disgusting.

Gatsby stood at the first shooting spot, shook his arms to relax his muscles, and nodded to the referee with a smile.

The referee raised his hand to indicate that he was ready to start, and then a whistle sounded. Gatsby took the ball and threw it without any hassle. The first ball was hit, the second was also hit, and the third was also hit!
The whole audience exclaimed. Gatsby's touch was so good, but he immediately missed the fourth ball and hit the flower ball. Gatsby had already scored 5 points at the first point.

At the second point, Gatsby made all the hits and scored 6 points. After two points, Gatsby scored 11 points!
The whole audience exclaimed, this is not over yet. At the third point, Gatsby hit all the shots, and his score has accumulated to 17 points. At the fourth point, Gatsby only made two shots and just stood there smiling. He didn't Just vote and wait quietly for the time to run out!

Gatsby scored 17 points in just 19 balls!
