Chapter 465 [It can be even more difficult, even more difficult]
The Rookie Challenge was extremely boring. The Eastern Team won 85-80, and "Big Z" Ilgauskas won the MVP.
The rookies only received sporadic applause. Fans now like to watch offensive games. Games with less than 100 points are too ugly to watch.
Moreover, the shooting percentage of the rookies was not very high, and the rhythm was even more sleepy. Tim Duncan participated in the game and played like a veteran who was about to retire. The fans couldn't believe that this guy was a rookie.
There is no such thing as "flying devil" or "big windmill in place". He is not a floor player now, that's all.
At that time, Duncan's college team was called the Wake Forest Flying Devils. Over time, future Chinese Cloud fans mistakenly thought it was Duncan's nickname.
The windmill in place is even more hilarious, not because Duncan can take off in a windmill and dunk on the same spot, but literally.
In the 2014 game against the Pelicans, the referee stopped the game. Duncan held the ball with one hand under the basket and drew a circle in the air, completing a "powerful and heavy" windmill. Duncan's funny actions also
The players and fans at the scene burst into laughter, and in an instant, the tense atmosphere between the two sides disappeared without a trace.
If anyone really wants to see Duncan dunk on a windmill, he can only do so in a dream.
The second day's event was entirely a performance by Yang Jian, and the other contestants combined were not as popular as him.
How good is he? No one is willing to participate in this year's slam dunk contest. Four of the six players are marginal members of the team with no data and no playing time.
The players all know that participating in the dunk contest is just a foil for Yang Jian. Moreover, the difficulty level of Yang Jian's dunk is too high, which will make other players look weak.
It is worth mentioning that Raptors rookie Tracy McGrady participated in this dunk contest. He did not want to compete with Yang Jian for the dunk title. He simply wanted to increase his popularity and prove his talent through show dunks.
McGrady was not reused by the Raptors head coach because of his inaccurate shooting. He averaged 17.6 minutes per game, 6.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.8 steals and 1 block. He has already won the important career award "Defensive Starter Award".
As for who the three-point champion is, no fans will care. Everyone believes that the real three-point champion is Yang Jian. He only participated in the dunk contest at the request of the fans and was too lazy to participate in the three-point contest.
Jazz veteran guard Jeff Hornacek won the three-point contest championship. He averaged only 1.6 three-pointers per game during the regular season and made 0.7.
Fans don't think he can compete with Yang Jian in three-pointers, but he is more accurate in training. Some people think that Hornacek's nickname is "Death Gun" which is too much. Compared with Yang Jian, he is at most a "water gun".
”.
Hornacek is quite unjust. If he played on a different team, he would be much more popular and would definitely be able to hit a lot of three-pointers. Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan restricted players from shooting three-pointers, even if there are three-pointers on the team.
The king can only take action when he gets an open position or is too far behind.
Sloan did a very good job of restricting Hornacek. The Jazz averaged 8.2 three-pointers per game this season, ranking last in the league. Last season, the Jazz averaged 11 three-pointers per game.
Less. After being tortured by the Sonics with three-pointers and fast breaks for two seasons, they actually took fewer outside shots.
Nike launched the "God of War III" in mainly black and green colors, and Yang Jian wore the new boots to participate in the dunk contest.
Yang Jian crushed everyone in the preliminaries, and his dunk action was something that no one else could even dunk at the bottom of the box.
His first dunk was to slide the baseline with the ball on the right side, jump up under the basket with all his strength, spread his legs as far as possible to form a horse in the air, and then smash the ball with his hands behind his back.
He showed terrifying jumping and waist and abdominal strength, which shocked the audience. Countless fans screamed on the sidelines, and the judges were all dumbfounded.
Sun Zhengping shouted: "Yang Jian's first dunk was so difficult. Players who will participate in the slam dunk contest in the future will probably be embarrassed to do folding back dunks again."
Zhang Lijia sighed: "His moves are getting harder and harder every time. Last season, some people said that he would no longer have to dunk, and he was the best in history. Today, he wants to tell everyone that it can be even harder, and it is even harder.
"
In the second dunk, Yang Jian slid the baseline on the left side, dribbling with only his right hand, went to the basket, slapped the ball hard on the ground, then jumped into the air, turned around half way with his right leg from the basketball, caught the rebound ball with his right hand and dunked the basketball
Enter!
Through the slow-motion replay, the audience saw clearly that this was a self-throw and self-dunk "crotch dunk without changing hands."
Of course, the judges collectively gave full marks. Yang Jian used all moves that had never been seen in a dunk contest.
In the third dunk, Yang Jian slid the baseline on the right side, turned 360 degrees to the left side when he reached the basket, and dunked the basketball with both hands backhand and scored!
Sun Zhengping was stunned. "He turned around for a full circle and a half, right? And he did a reverse kick. I don't know if there is anyone else on earth who can do this kind of action."
Zhang Liji smiled and said: "This is just the preliminaries. His dunk like this shows that there are more difficult moves in the finals."
Commentators from other countries were also full of praise, saying on behalf of Yang Jian that everyone else was here to compete for second place. No other contestant in the preliminaries had a single perfect dunk, while Yang Jian entered the finals with three perfect scores.
The final was determined by two dunks, and Yang Jian's first dunk shocked everyone.
He dribbled the ball to the basket on the right side, jumped up, reversed a 360-degree turn halfway, and used his left hand to lift the ball toward the backboard. His body paused slightly. When people thought he made a mistake, he caught the rebound ball with his right hand.
, turned around and pushed the ball into the basket.
The fans exclaimed and applauded thunderously.
Zhang Lili shouted: "This dunk is so creative. If he dunks like this in actual combat, he can add a rebound to himself!"
For the last dunk, Yang Jian called the Supersonics' mascot, Scooby Bear, who looks like Chewbacca from Star Wars, to cooperate. Although it looks ugly, Scooby Bear is considered to be one of the best mascots in NBA history.
Yang Jian asked Scoop Bear to hold the ball above his head and stand on the right side of the basket. He took a run-up on the right side, calculated the distance and took off with both feet. He took the basketball from Scoop Bear's head with his right hand and gave it to his left hand from his crotch. He crossed over
In a high-jumping action, he raised his legs and flew over Scooby Bear's head, dunking the basketball with his left hand and scoring a goal!
This is the career masterpiece of Aaron Gordon, the "uncrowned king" of the parallel world, a real crotch dunk. Because the player lifts his legs as if he is sitting in the air.
Yang Jian's jumping ability can replicate this action, and it has become the first in history. It is currently impossible for anyone to do it, and even if they thought of it, they would not dare to try it.
Zhang Lijia shouted: "Full score! This ball must be another perfect score! Yang Jian made three dunk contests with perfect scores in all his actions and won the dunk king."
Sun Zhengping sighed: "He is the first player in NBA history to win three slam dunk contests. He is so strong."
Zhang Lijia smiled and said: "He must be the first in history in terms of dunks. None of the previous dunk kings, including Jordan, can compare with him."
Not only are they incomparable, many people now doubt whether Jordan's maximum jump is really 122cm? It seems like he made it up for the sake of hype. If Jordan's jump ability is the first in history, why is his dunk so different from Yang Jian's?
Of course, Jordan's current jumping ability is not as good as Yang Jian's. It is true that his jumping ability was amazing when he was young. However, Jordan's dunks seriously lack creativity. The most beautiful one is the free throw line dunk.
The street ball player Goat is really awesome. Some people say that his maximum jumping ability is 155cm. However, there is no evidence at all. Goat has never played in the NBA. The only thing left is a black and white photo of his head with a flat frame.
Yang Jian's talent is not just for boasting, it is obvious to all. He left a large number of video recordings, which fans 100 years later can also see.
He said in an interview on the spot: "I want to participate in the three-point contest next time. After winning the dunk contest three times in a row, it's time to leave some performance opportunities for others."
The reporter asked: "Are you confident of winning the championship in the three-point contest?"
