God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 206

Reed's failure to win the Rookie Challenge MVP did make many people regret, including Harmon, who was very interested in Reed's precise three-pointers.But Chang Wei didn't think so. Reid had already proved himself in the game, and it was enough for the opponents to start to face up to his three-point threat. The Rookie Challenge MVP was irrelevant to him.

Seeing that Harmon still looked regretful, Chang Wei smiled, put his arms around her shoulders and said, "Don't be depressed, actually Michael's three-pointers are not the strongest in our team, tomorrow you will You can see our team's top scorer."

To be honest, Chang Wei does give Lewis a little bit of money, but Lewis's three-point shooting percentage is already the second in the team, and Snow, who is higher than him, averages nearly 2 fewer three-point shots per game than him. .On the whole, there is nothing wrong with Lewis being the team's top scorer, and he is also a reliable scoring point for defenders' favorite assists.

Of course Harmon knew who her boyfriend was talking about, but just now Reid's three-point shooting was really super-level. She said with some disbelief: "Even if Reed is not your strongest three-point shooter, it's just about improvisation." I believe that Lewis’s performance is definitely not as good as him. The pressure of the Rookie Challenge and the three-point contest is not at the same level. I dare say that Lewis’s performance tomorrow will not be better than Reed.”

Chang Wei said with a smile: "I know the two of them quite well. I know their technical characteristics and psychological state very well. But it's boring to say it now. Let's wait and see Rashad's performance tomorrow. Think of it as his battle to clear his name."

The next day, Chang Wei and Harmon appeared in the arena on time, but the first game was not a three-point contest, but a slam dunk contest that thrills fans every year with All-Stars.It's a pity that the lineup of this year's slam dunk contest is far from last year. Desmond Mason, Corey Maggette, Stromile Swift, Jonathan Bender, Byron Day Weiss, Deshaun Stevenson, that's all the players in the dunk contest this year.

Not only are the reputations very different, but these players this year seem to have no imagination at all. Their dunk movements are highly completed, but the viewing ability is not flattering.This also made Chang Wei completely lose interest. He just whispered to Harmon while waiting for the three-point contest to start.

Unlike the slam dunk contest, this year's three-point contest is full of talents. Ray Allen, Alan Houston, Peja Stojakovic, Nash and Nowitzki, Lewis' competitors are still very strong.Among other things, Ray Allen, Peja, and Nowitzki were all champions of the three-point contest in their previous lives, and Nash and Houston's shots were also top-notch in the league. Confidence is not particularly high, thank God for being able to reach the final stage.

After the intermission performance, several players who participated in the three-point contest began to enter the field to warm up.Lewis saw Chang Wei on the sidelines at a glance. Chang Wei made a cheering gesture to him, then turned his head and continued to chat and laugh with Harmon.Seeing that Chang Wei also came to watch the game, Lewis secretly made up his mind that he must perform well in the three-point contest. It would be even better if he could beat all his opponents and win the championship.

After the lottery, Lewis ranked third in the order of appearance. This position is still very good, at least there will not be too much pressure.But ahead of him are Dirk Nowitzki and Peja. If the two of them can get high scores, Lewis is definitely Alexander.From Chang Wei's point of view, it is a sure thing that these two people will get high scores.

Sure enough, Dirk Nowitzki, who played first, scored 20 points, especially hitting all five balls from both corners.This kind of performance made the fans on the scene exclaim. In the impression of most fans, the big man should not shoot three-pointers outside, but Nowitzki undoubtedly broke this inherent impression.

Peja, who followed closely behind, did not appear in the perverted situation where Nowitzki hit all five goals with a single point, but his performance on the five points was very average, and he finally scored 22 points, so that all the pressure came on Lewis.

You must know that more than 20 points in the three-point contest is already a very high score, even if it is put in the finals, there is hope to compete for the championship.Lewis took off his training clothes, stood up with a serious expression, and strode to the left corner to shoot.

"Di--" As soon as the timer sounded, Lewis took a deep breath, took the basketball on the shelf next to him, glanced at it for a while, and shot it quickly.

In the first point, Lewis hit 2 ordinary balls and 1 flower ball.This result is not bad, after all, only 6 points for all hits.But Lewis was unmoved. He quickened his pace and ran to the second point, continuing his previous actions like a robot.

At the second point, Lewis directly hit the first four ordinary balls, and the fans started to cheer for him.It's a pity that the last flower ball failed to hit. When the ball hit the basket, there was a sigh of relief in the audience.But Lewis didn't have time to worry about the missed flower ball. He had to go to the top of the key to shoot the third point.

The top of the arc is where Lewis is good at. At this point, he only missed one ordinary ball and scored a total of 5 points.Then at the 45-degree angle and the bottom corner on the other side, Lewis scored 4 points respectively, so his total score was 21 points, surpassing Nowitzki and temporarily ranking second.

Such a score made Lewis look better, but after Ray Allen finished the game, his face became cloudy again.As the champion of the three-point contest in his previous life, Ray Allen scored 25 points in one breath, pushing Lewis to the third place, and his tickets to the final became precarious.

The fifth player to play is Houston, who is known as the "king of mid-range shots". This guy really lived up to his reputation and only scored 15 points. Obviously he prefers mid-range shots rather than three-pointers.Such a result means that he can already be a quiet and handsome man on the sidelines.

The last one to play was Nowitzki's good friend Nash.Chang Wei knows that this Canadian who loves assists is actually a top pitcher. Many times he scores less because he doesn't want to shoot.It's a pity that Nash's shots were relatively slow, and he missed two shots in the end. Even so, he scored 18 points, showing strong shooting skills.But no matter what, his 18 points will be eliminated. With his shooting rate, if he is given a few more seconds, there will be an overtime match with Lewis in all likelihood.

Soon the results of the preliminary stage were displayed on the big screen, and Ray Allen, Peja and Lewis successfully entered the final stage.
