Chapter 157 Three-Point Shootout Contest
Chapter 157 Three-Point Shootout Contest
According to the past practice, 20 points were scored in the preliminaries of the three-point contest, which basically determined a seat for the final.
So Novak returned to the rest seat after finishing his vote. His teammates, including Wei Dong, gave him high fives and congratulated him for getting a good score in the preliminaries.
After Novak is Irving.
Irving's three-point shooting rate this season is not as good as Novak's, and of course it has something to do with his style of play.
"Beep!!!"
The whistle sounded and Irving started shooting.
"Shh!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Shh!!!"
"Shh!!!"
"Shh!!!"
Irving's first point hit rate was good, and he made four of five shots, including a flower ball. Irving scored five points on the first point.
But with the subsequent 45-degree angle and mid-line shots, Irving's hits were not stable.
In the final corner, Irving scored fifteen points.
Owen also became nervous. Fifteen points was not a safe score, because Novak scored [-] points, and behind him was a three-pointer like Wei Dong.
"Whoo~~~"
Owen struggled to adjust his breathing.
He has a big advantage over Novak, that is, he has a fast shooting speed. At the last point, Irving still has 15 seconds to shoot.
So Owen picked up the first basketball after adjusting his shooting posture and breathing.
"Shh!!!"
Owen made the first shot.
"Shh!!!"
Owen hit the second shot.
"Shh!!!"
Irving hit the fourth shot.
At the last shooting point, Irving hit all the first four goals. He has scored 19 points, and only the last shooting point is left.
"4!!!"
"3!!!"
"2!!!"
The countdown on the scene also reached the last second, and Irving shot the last bouquet.
"Shh!!!"
The last bouquet hit!
Irving scored 21 points, one more than Novak.
After seeing the score, Irving jumped up and waved his fist. He was very satisfied with this shot. With 21 points, in the previous three-point contest, he has already entered the finals.
"Yes~~~"
Owen's performance, Wei Dong felt very good.
In this year's three-point contest, Weidong didn't plan to use the "lucky potion". It was originally an entertainment game, and comfort was not that important. After all, Jordan was at the bottom.
After Irving was Anderson, who scored only 13 points.
13 points basically missed the finals, after all, after him, there are Curry and Weidong who did not vote.
After Anderson is Curry.
Curry adjusted his breathing and started to shoot. His three-pointer today felt very hot.
The first four flower balls were all scored, and after the last shot point, Curry also scored 21 points. Now there are three players with more than 20 points, and Anderson was confirmed to be eliminated.
The last two players left in the preliminaries are Bynum of the Suns and Weidong of the Suns.
Both of them must score more than 21 points to reach the final.
When it was Bynum's turn to play, he said to Weidong, "Brother Dong, I'm a little nervous."
"You don't need to be nervous."
Wei Dong comforted: "Anyway, you won't be able to enter the final."
Bynum: ╮(╯﹏╰)╭
Bynum thought that Weidong would encourage him, but he didn't expect that Weidong directly hit his self-confidence, but it was his turn to play, and he couldn't hesitate.
"For the glory of the center!!!"
Bynum also yelled before entering the field to cheer himself up.
Then as the live whistle sounded, Bynum started shooting.
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Shh!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
The first corner shot point, Bynum only hit a ball.
This is okay, because in the previous three-point contest, there were many times when the first shot was not smooth, and the fans were still shouting 'Bynum' to cheer for Bynum.
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
Bynum, the little blacksmith of Phoenix, missed all his second .[-] shots and the scene was silent for an instant.
The last time he was so strong in the three-point contest was Jordan.
Could it be that Bynum wants to reproduce the glory of Jordan's three-pointer contest?After all, as a professional player, he only scored 5 points in the three-point contest. This record is still difficult to break.
"Bang!!!"
"Shh!!!"
"Bang!!!"
In the third point, Bynum made a good shot and scored a goal. His score became 2 points.
It is completely confirmed that he will be eliminated. Even if the last two points are all scored, Bynum can only score 14 points, but now there are already three players who have scored more than 20 points.
So, the last two shots, Bynum has started to shoot blindly.
At this time, the front row of the court was full of players and stars who were already laughing together.
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
In the end, Bynum's trip to the three-pointer contest scored a total of three points, breaking Jordan's record for the lowest three-pointer that had been maintained for more than two decades.
"Brother."
Bynum walked up to Weidong in disgrace, hoping to get a few words of comfort from Weidong.
"who are you???"
Wei Dong turned his face away, he didn't know this person.
And this year's three-point contest, Jordan also came. After Bynum scored a three-pointer, Jordan walked over and patted Bynum on the shoulder, "Young man, you are very good!!!"
This scene was also seen by fans all over the world through the live broadcast, and everyone laughed.
Before shooting, Bynum shouted, "Glory to the center!" Then he scored a three-pointer in the three-point contest, breaking Jordan's record for the lowest score.
The last player to play is Weidong.
The pressure on Weidong is still great. There are already three players who have scored more than 20 points. Weidong must score 21 points to enter the final.
"Beep!!!"
The whistle sounded!
Weidong adjusted his shooting state, got the basketball and started to shoot.
"Bang!!!"
"Shh!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Shh!!!"
"Shh!!!"
Weidong didn't shoot very well at the first point. He only made three out of five goals, including a flower ball of course, so he scored four points.
From the second point, Weidong made certain adjustments to his shooting.
So in the next three points, Weidong only missed two shots. In this way, Weidong scored 20 points. He only needed to score one goal at the last point to enter the final of the three-pointer contest.
