Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 261 The Big Man Won!
The next two groups are more worth looking forward to, because all four are big men.

First of all, Green and Towns started at the same time, and the speed of the dribbling session was not slower than that of the defender at all, and the audience burst into applause.

In the level pass link, Green made a hit. Towns wasted three opportunities and quickly caught up with the ball.

At the end of the second layup, Green led by about 3 seconds, but his three-pointer was inaccurate. When he shot the third ball, Towns on the other side had already made the first shot, completed the reversal, and successfully eliminated Chasing Dream Green.

The next group is a pair of inside superstars Cousins ​​​​and Anthony Davis who came out of the University of Kentucky.

Cousins ​​lost the ball at the beginning, and the commentator called it a pity. When he rushed to the frontcourt, Anthony Davis with thick eyebrows had already ran to the other side of the court to layup.

"Little Dema, hurry up!" the senior with thick eyebrows shouted at Cousins ​​while dribbling the ball.

Cousins ​​bit his lip and ran madly, finally catching up with the progress.

The two made layups successively, with a difference of about 3 seconds, and then ran back to the frontcourt together.

The three-pointer link is a good opportunity for the Jedi to counterattack. Cousins ​​and Anthony Davis missed the first two shots, and the third ball flew to the basket almost at the same time.

"Come in, come in!" Tang Si and Yuan Qingshan stood on the sidelines and cheered nervously. Both of them were their seniors, but they didn't know who they were helping.

Swish!
Cousins' flower ball fell into the basket.

The commentator Jack directly called the fate unfair: "Cousins ​​made a low-level error when dribbling. Can you imagine that someone would dribble the ball to his feet in a skill contest? But it is useless to say that, they just turned defeat into victory."

Another commentator, Rooney, joked: "I suspect he wants to show off his signature sneakers. Look at Cousins, it's fun, it's fun, it was fake serious just now!"

The camera footage is shown to the two contestants.

Cousins ​​laughed wildly triumphantly, and the thick-browed senior shook his head and came over to hug him: "Boy, you are so lucky!"

Hearing the senior's complaint, Cousins ​​laughed even more.

After the first round, the second round is McCollum vs. Thomas Jr., Towns vs. Cousins, the small one against the small one, the big one against the big one.

The host of the break session asked Anthony Davis how he felt about losing to his juniors.

Anthony Davis said: "I just heard what the commentator said, and he was right. Cousins ​​​​is advertising his signature shoes!"

At the beginning of the second round, Thomas Jr. was in good condition, with a set of moves flowing smoothly.

On the other hand, McCollum seemed to be too nervous, and even missed the ball, causing himself to be nearly 5 seconds behind Thomas Jr..

Thomas made an emergency stop and hit a three-pointer, eliminating McCollum cleanly.

Lillard, dressed in hip-hop, walked to the field and patted McCollum on the head, taking his teammate back.

The venue was given to two big men.

Cousins ​​put his arm around Towns' shoulders and said secretly, "Do you dare to win this ball? Aren't you afraid I'll teach you a lesson?"

Downs smiled and pushed his hand away: "If Coach Old John heard what you said, he would catch you and scold you for three days and three nights."

Cousins ​​was just joking, and his mouth twisted: "You are shameless, boy, to mention that old guy to affect my mood."

In Lexington, the head coach of the University of Kentucky, John, was sipping coffee and watching the challenge game. He suddenly choked on a mouthful: "Damn it, which kid is scolding me behind my back again?"

The duel between Towns and Cousins ​​was over quickly, and Cousins ​​once again dribbled the ball, this time on the heel.

Commentator Rooney clapped his hands excitedly: "Look, I said he was advertising. Last time it was the upper, this time it was the heel. We have to see the whole picture of the signature shoe!"

Partner Jack chimed in: "My God, Nike is already manipulating All-Star weekend, quack quack!"

Coach John in front of the TV was amused by the commentators, and said to himself: "Come on, Cousins, don't say that you are from Kentucky in the future, it's too shameful."

After two rounds of competition, it was Thomas Jr. and Downs who entered the finals.

This is an interesting duel. Thomas Jr. is 175 centimeters and Towns is 211 centimeters, a difference of 36 centimeters.

Commentator Jack: "Are there any mistakes? Is this the cutest height difference in history? Do you dare to imagine that the end of the Skills Challenge is a duel between point guards and centers?"

Commentator Rooney: "I think the core of this challenge is the three-point shot. The foreshadowing in front can only buy you two to three more three-point shots."

The whistle blows and the game begins.

There is no harm without comparison. Thomas Jr. led the way, dribbling, passing, layup, all in one go.

After a set of procedures, it really takes more time to shoot two three-pointers than Towns.

Thomas Jr.: Shoot, don't go in, shoot, don't go in.

The first two did not make it, and the two returned to the same starting line.

Towns panicked a little, held the third ball in his hand for a while, and adjusted his breathing.

Yuan Qingshan, Cousins ​​and Anthony Davis stood in a row behind him, nervously waiting for the result.

Downs breathes, throws, doesn't go in!

"Oh, NO!" The three behind him shouted regretfully.

Thomas Jr. and Towns shot at the same time, and they didn't make it!

"Oh, NO! Come on, little Downs!" Anthony Davis put his arms around Yuan Qingshan and waved his arms.

Towns picked up another basketball, "Whoo, whoo, whoo," adjusted his rhythm, raised his hand, and shot!
Assorted basketballs are spinning...

hit!

"Damn, it's really in!" Cousins ​​yelled and hugged Downs' waist from behind.

Yuan Qingshan and Anthony Davis also rushed over immediately, and the Kentucky four embraced tightly.

Anthony Davis patted Downs on the head: "Pretty, pretty, little Downs!"

Cousins ​​was even more excited than winning the championship himself: "Boy, are you really giving the big man a face!"

The host held up the microphone and wanted to interview the champion of the skills competition for the first time, but because the atmosphere was too enthusiastic, he had to postpone it.

Downs kept smirking: "Xiao Shan, I won another trophy!"

Yuan Qingshan only cared about music, and waved his fist excitedly.

The host came to the interview after the cheers from the fans subsided slightly, and the first sentence was: "Mr. Towns, I heard that you gave away the MVP last night, so what are you going to do with this trophy?"

Downs immediately replied: "All the trophies belong to Yuan Qingshan, but this trophy looks quite expensive. This time he will buy me steak for a month!"

The audience laughed.

"Hahahaha!" Cousins ​​yelled at Yuan Qingshan with his big fist while having fun: "What about you, treat, treat!"

The focus of the audience was all on Towns, and in the corner where the lights did not reach, Green walked up to Thomas Jr. and snorted coldly: "It's ridiculous, the point guard actually lost to the center!"

Little Thomas was already depressed enough, he stared at Green with his chest up and said viciously, "Do you want to fight, I'll accompany you anytime."

Seeing the other party's red eyes, the provocative Green immediately faltered. Just as he didn't know how to find the steps, someone behind him gave him a hand.

"Isiah, you performed very well, but you didn't have much luck when shooting three-pointers. We all know that you are a famous marksman!"

Thomas Jr. and Green saw that it was elementary school student Stephen Curry who came to make a rescue at the critical moment.

Hearing that even Curry was praising his shooting skills, Thomas Jr. had a slight negative emotion in his heart, so he naturally gave him this face, glared at Green and walked out of the field.

"Hmph, Stephen, I can blow him away with one punch!" Green lost his temper when he saw that he was gone.

Curry shook his head helplessly: "Okay, come to the sidelines to watch the three-point contest between me and Clay. If I win, I will give you the trophy, okay."

Green: "Why are you imitating Downs?"
