Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 100 Appearing in the three-point contest
Before the official start of the All-Star Game, there is also an All-Star Weekend event, which includes a skills challenge, a three-pointer contest, and a slam dunk contest.

The Skills Challenge is basically prepared for defenders. Participants need to face the test of dribbling over obstacles, fixed-point shooting, fixed-point passing, etc. The one who takes the least time will be the champion.

In the end, Jason Kidd won the championship in one fell swoop by virtue of his stable state.

The following three-point shooting contest attracted extra attention from the media and fans, because the players participating were all famous three-point shooters.

They include Steve Kerr of the Chicago Bulls, Reggie Miller of the Indiana Pacers, Ray Allen of the Milwaukee Bucks, Glenn Rice of the Charlotte Hornets, Utah Jazz Hornacek and Zhou Yu of the Los Angeles Lakers.

The reason why Zhou Yu signed up for the competition was entirely out of confidence in his own three-point level, but after seeing the star-studded entry list, his heart was pounding.

Except for Hornacek, these five guys can all be called three-point shooters in NBA history. It is not easy to stand out from them.

Even though he had no idea, before the match, he politely walked up to the five of them and boasted:

"Hey, are you five here to compete for third place?"

"Fight for third? Didn't we remember Larry Bird's original words, didn't we fight for second?"

The five of them looked at each other in surprise.

"Oh, that's the case. It should be because if I say that I am second, no one dares to say that I am the first, so you can only be wronged and fight for the third."

Zhou Yu explained calmly.

"Rubbish!"

"Shameless!"

"mean!"

"furious!"

"rogue!"

The five were so angry that they hopped their feet and didn't know what to say.

There are five shooting points in the three-point contest, namely two bottom corners, 45 degrees on both sides and the arc top in the middle. There are 5 balls in each shooting point, 4 ordinary balls, 1 colored ball, and 1 ordinary ball. 1 point, 2 points for hitting a colored ball, a full score of 30 points, and a specified time of 60 seconds.

The competition is divided into three rounds. Two players are eliminated in the first two rounds, and the final champion is determined in the third round.

In the first round, Hornacek was the first to play. This guy is known for his stable three-pointers. After shooting 5 points, he scored 25 points, which is quite good.

The second player to play is Ray Allen. At this time, Ray Allen is still unknown in the world of three-pointers. His three-pointers are characterized by high jumps, fast shots without falling back, and go straight.

After throwing 25 balls, the score is 26 points, which is even more brave.

The pressure in Zhou Yu's heart increased sharply. He knew that it was not easy to reach 25 points. To shoot 25 balls in such a short period of time, and to ensure the hit rate, is definitely a great test for a three-point shooter. .

The third player to play was Glenn Rice. Rice's three-pointer was a killer feature, and this guy was only remembered for his three-pointer.

Although Rice said that his shooting posture was standard, he felt that his movements were relatively stiff, like a robot shooting.

After throwing 25 balls, the score is the same as Ray Allen's, with 26 points.

The fourth player to play is Reggie Miller, who is even more famous. Everyone knows the "Miller moment", but his shooting posture is not standard, and it feels like the ball is pushed out with the palm of his hand.

It was thought that Miller would set another record in the three-point contest, but what was surprising was that he had no sense of three-point shooting, and he shot repeatedly. The final report card was only 18 points.

The fifth player to play is Steve Cole. Cole's three-pointers are solid, especially when there is no defense.

As expected, Cole's score was 27 points, becoming the highest score among the participating players.

The last one to play was Zhou Yu himself. The reason why he was arranged to play last was entirely because he was the only player who was over 2.1 meters tall and could shoot three-pointers.

"The next player who will appear on the stage is Wang Zhi, who is tall as a center but has the touch of a guard. He is a representative of the golden generation of 96. He is like a joke with a 'triple double' and comes from China. Zhi!"

The narrator's introduction was impassioned, vigorous and loud, instantly igniting the audience, but Zhou Yu was a little dumbfounded.

Immediately afterwards, under the cover of several follow-up lights, Zhou Yu made his grand debut with his tall body shaking, and turned around to wave to the fans at the scene frequently, enjoying the cheers and screams of the fans.

"Mr. Bird, do you think Wang Zhizhi is expected to surpass your performance in the three-point contest?"

An ESPN reporter off the field raised the microphone and asked about "Big Bird" with great interest.

"Whether he can surpass me in the three-point contest, I'm not sure, but what I'm sure of is that this kid has already surpassed me at the level of pretending."

Larry Bird smiled and commented bluntly.

"Can you comment on the Chinese player Wang Zhizhi, because you are very similar in height and technical style of play."

The ESPN reporter then asked.

"Wang Zhizhi is a player. I have also paid attention to him for a long time. Although his skills are not bad, compared with me, he can only be regarded as a middle school student. The reason why he has so many outstanding performances is entirely because the defense in today's NBA is so bad. , It is simply incomparable with my era."

Larry Bird curled his lips, and said in his true colors.

On the court, Zhou Yu first stretched his muscles and bones, and then stood in front of the first shooting point and waited for the countdown.

The countdown began, Zhou Yu quickly picked up the first ball on the long basketball rack, and scored a three-pointer with his first hand. The time of 60 seconds is very short, so Zhou Yu's jump height is relatively low, and the speed of his shot is also very fast.

After the crisp sound of "唰", Zhou Yu threw one after another.

The first shooting point is the bottom corner on one side. Friends who have played basketball probably know that the easiest point to shoot a three-pointer is the bottom corner on both sides, followed by the top of the arc in the middle, and the most difficult point is 45 degrees on both sides.

After the first shooting point, Zhou Yu made 5 of 5 shots, followed by the second shooting point, 45 degrees to one side, and he was still 5 of 5 shots.

When the third shot at the top of the arc was over, Zhou Yu still made 5 of 5 shots, and his state was so stable that it was terrifying, and the screams of the fans had already faintly emerged.

When the fourth shot made 5 of 5 shots, the fans in the audience had already started to stand up and applaud and scream for Zhou Yu, because he was very likely to break the record of the three-point contest and score an incredible 30 points.

And the fact is just as the fans expected, Zhou Yu's first four shots at the fifth shooting point were still hollow into the net, but the last ball slipped out of the basket, and the score was finally fixed at 28 points.

"Oh my God, Wang Zhizhi is crazy. Is he really from the earth? Why do I feel like he is from Mars!"

The narrator couldn't help but exclaimed.

The fans in the audience were even more crazy about it, and the words "Wang Zhizhi" resounded over the arena again.

After the first round of the competition, Miller with 18 points and Hornacek with 25 points were eliminated. Hornacek was the most useless. He scored 25 points and was eliminated in the first round. It was rare in previous three-point contests.

Not long after, the second round of competition came as scheduled.Zhou Yu was the last to play and still played steadily, scoring 26 points and passing the test smoothly.

Ray Allen, who scored 22 points, and Glenn Rice, who scored 23 points, were eliminated. Cole's performance was stable enough, and he also scored 26 points, and both entered the final with Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu knew in his heart that according to the plot of his previous life, Cole was the champion of this year's three-point contest. Just play it.
