Chapter 329 Sun Hao, James, Slam Dunk Contest(2/2)
After Nowitzki was pushed up by Chinese fans, Garnett and Duncan took turns to go in and out of the starting lineup.
James also regretted not being selected.
However, Kirilenko's selection was a bit surprising.
However, his style is very similar to Artest in the east, and is even more versatile.
The accident was just that the Jazz had just left the team after two evil spirits, and their record was not bad.
In terms of individual events, the league has set up a new "Shot Star" event this year.
This was originally something that Sun Hao wanted to participate, but according to the rules, the teams participating in this project must be an active player, a WNBA player and a retired NBA player.
Sun Hao finally couldn't find a suitable teammate and had to give up the first year.
This year's All-Star Game was held in Los Angeles, and the Lakers also sent out a "luxury lineup". Fisher, the first MVP of the WNBA to complete a dunk, Lisa Leslie, "Magic" Johnson.
In addition, the remaining three teams are the Pistons, Spurs and Clippers.
Skill Challenge: Byron Davis, Fisher, Marbury, Nash;
Nash lost to Kidd last year and made a comeback this year, but unfortunately defending champion Kidd did not participate.
Three-point contest: Billups, Koval, Wash Leonard, Rashad Lewis, Mobri, Peja;
If Peja can continue to win the championship, he will complete three consecutive championships in this event.
The dunk contest is also the event that fans pay the most attention to this year's All-Star Game.
In addition to Sun Hao, James and Richardson, the fourth person is James' teammate, Chris Anderson, who has played in the CBA before.
With the expectations of fans, the time soon came to mid-February, and the 2004 All-Star Weekend will be kicked off in Los Angeles.
Like in previous years, Adidas made another big move before this year's All-Star Game.
The success of Adidas SH95 has made Adidas determined to launch the "sun" series.
The first generation of this series was launched before the All-Star Game, Adidas.sun1.
The Adidas sneakers are full of expectations. It is also the first time that they have designed an ultra-low top. The color is also designed to be the color of volcanic rocks, which complements the monkey in the logo.
This is a sneaker that combines great technology and appearance. It has already made fans look forward to it before it was officially released.
In order to promote sneakers, Adidas also asked Sun Hao to wear these shoes in advance.
During the first day of the rookie competition, Sun Hao's feet became a place for reporters to take photos.
Because the appearance of this new shoe is really too high.
Even just based on his appearance, it can be predicted that he is another hit product that surpasses AdidasSH95.
Of course, Sun Hao's sneakers are not all the focus of the first day of the All-Star Weekend.
Because of the 2003 Golden Generation, this year's rookie competition has also attracted much attention.
On the first-year team, James, Anthony, Milicic, Yi Jianlian, Wade, Bosh, TJ Ford, Hinrich, Carman, Josh Howard... These rookies who shined in the rookie season were selected.
On the contrary, the second-year team, Best Rookie Bodilloga has returned to Europe, relying solely on Stoudemire and Caron Butler to support the scene, which is slightly bleak in comparison.
However, after the game began, the two teams were still evenly matched.
Although the first-grade team has outstanding talent, it has only been in the league for half a season, and the experience is a bit different from the second-grade team.
But even so, they still play back and forth with the second-grade team.
Playing until the last moment, Stoudemire's violent slam dunk helped the sophomore team get a key 2-point advantage.
In the last attack, James forced his rush to the basket and then passed the ball to Anthony on the outside.
James was connected, and Anthony almost took the buzzer-beating action when he received the ball.
"Swish!"
Unlike before playing against the Mavericks, Anthony showed his big heart ability this time, hitting a three-pointer with a buzzer, helping the first-year team win 126 to 125.
At the end of the game, the scene was in a carnival.
It is rare to play in rookie games so exciting.
However, this seems to set the tone for this year's All-Star Game.
Unlike the exhibition matches like last year, this year's All-Star match is about to return to the real game.
The final MVP was given to James, who scored 27 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the game.
This is also his second trophy in his career besides the best rookie of the month.
In addition, Anthony scored 21 points, Wade scored 16 points, and Yi Jianlian scored 15 points and 10 rebounds.
After the first day of rookie game, fans could not wait to start the second day's game immediately.
Because the dunk contest they have been looking forward to is on this day.
The Staples Center was packed the next day, and the fans' enthusiasm was no less than that of the main game.
The first to start was the shooting star, and the "Magician" played his bravery to help Los Angeles successfully win the first event.
In the following skills challenge, Nash also felt like he had no Kidd and had no opponents, and he easily won the championship.
This season Arenas left the team, and Nash's data has increased significantly.
However, judging from the chat between Sun Hao and him on this day, the team's strength declined and he was not as happy as last season.
Although his style of playing looks elegant, he is also a person who is as competitive as Kobe in his bones.
After the Skills Challenge, the highlight of the day was the three-point competition and the dunk competition.
Pejazhi won three consecutive championships, and he successfully scored a game-high 21 points in the preliminary round.
However, in the finals, he performed poorly again like last year, with only 16 points.
This time, the goddess of luck failed to favor him anymore. In the end, Wash Leonard from the Nuggets successfully won the 2004 three-point competition championship with 18 points.
There was also a burst of regret at the scene, and Peja missed the three consecutive championships.
Chapter completed!
