The glory of the center

Chapter 66 Slam Dunk Contest 2

"It's wonderful! It was really wonderful that there were three full-score dunks in the first round of the preliminaries! Next, the second round of confrontation!"

After the first round, Zhao Yue, McGee and Griffin all scored 50 points, and only Ibaka scored 45 points, so Ibaka still took the lead in the second round.

While Kenny Smith shouted, the fans in front of the screen also began to talk about this year's slam dunk contest.

"There are three full marks in the first round, which is really wonderful!"

"Zhao's performance is too amazing, but his opponent looks stronger and more impressive."

"This may become another classic after the 2000 slam dunk contest. I hope they won't let us down next!"

In any case, three full marks appeared in the first round, which was enough to make everyone excited, and Zhao Yue's last dunk also shocked many people. Originally, people were a little puzzled that Ibaka only got 45 points from the free throw line, but after Zhao Yue's dunk, everyone took it for granted. As Kenny Smith said, Zhao Yue felt that 50 points was less.

Ibaka showed a creative dunk this time. He hung a teddy bear on the basket, then ran from the bottom corner on the left, rushed into the three-second area, and then jumped to bite the teddy bear with his mouth and smashed the ball into the basket.

This dunk is indeed a good idea, but it is not difficult, especially the final dunk. Ibaka directly hit it and did not make a good move. All five referees scored 9 points, and Ibaka scored 45 points again. After two rounds, he got 90 points, and Ibaka was almost sure that he was not in the finals. As long as there was no accident, Zhao Yue and the three of them would not get a score of less than 40 points in the second deduction.

Ibaka obviously understood his situation, so he was not too excited after completing the dunk. Although the fans at the scene also gave applause, it was more like encouragement.

McGee was still the second appearance. He called his teammate Wall to cooperate. Watching the people on his appearance once again aroused interest, McGee took two balls in his hand and Wall also took a ball in his hand. From this situation, McGee seemed to smash three balls.

This is also true. After running into the basket, McGee quickly smashed the ball into the basket with both hands. At the same time, he quickly threw the ball over McGee's head, and McGee received the ball and smashed it into the basket. This should be the action envisaged by McGee, but there was a small accident when he came to the court. The ball thrown by Wall was not received by McGee. When McGee smashed two balls into the basket, the ball thrown by Wall had fallen from above his head, and McGee did not have time to catch the ball and dunk.

Starting again, there was still the same problem as the previous one. When receiving the dunk thrown by Wall, McGee made a mistake.

Many consecutive attempts have failed. McGee and Wall had some communication, and finally completed it for the tenth time. McGee smashed three balls into the basket.

McGee's dunk is indeed very creative. If it is a success, I believe that the referee will give 10 points, but at this time, the judges are quite cautious. Of course, this is also related to the first round of full marks dunks. In the case that McGee's performance is not perfect, three judges gave 10 points. Two judges gave 9 points, McKee's second deduction of 48 points and 98 points after two rounds.

In the cheers, Griffin appeared on the court again. Originally, Griffin thought that he could easily enter the finals, but McGee's performance put pressure on Griffin. Originally, he prepared an action to cooperate with Balang Davis. Balang Davis threw the ball and hit the side of the rebound. He followed and completed the pull dunk. At this time, he realized this action. He may not get too high scores today. Before Zhao Yue appeared, he really dared to bet that Zhao Yue's second dunk would be a low score, so Griffin changed his mind and got a move that was originally prepared for the finals in the second round.

Running outside the three-point line, Griffin threw the ball while running, then took it up and took the basketball, and stuffed it into the basket with the ball with her arm.

Griffin copied Carter's basket dunk. Unlike Carter, Griffin added a self-throwing action. The height of the ball and air posture were very good. Four judges scored 10 points and one judge scored 9 points. As Kenny Smith said, Zhao Yue's dunk 50 points are not enough, but the selections can only give a maximum of 50 points. At this time, they have to slightly suppress the dunk scores of other players.

In terms of excitement, in fact, neither McGee nor Griffin lost to the first dunk, but even the judges dare not give full marks at will when Zhao Yue has not performed.

Ibaka has been confirmed to be out. McGee scored 98 points after two rounds and Griffin scored 99 points after two rounds. Now it depends on Zhao Yue's performance. If his score exceeds 48 points, it will be him and Griffin who will advance to the finals. If not, he can only leave McGee the chance to the finals.

"King! King! King!" Zhao Yue's first buckle just now shocked everyone enough. When Griffin came out, there was a shout called Zhao Yue's English name at the scene. Zhao Yue played in such a shout, and his teammate Nash also played with him.

"Zhao and Steve play together. Obviously, he will complete a cooperation with Steve. In the first half of the season, we have seen a lot of Zhao and Steve's air cooperation. Will they have any novel moves this time? Let's wait and see!"

When Kenny Smith shouted, Zhao Yue and Nash on the stage had separated. Nash walked towards the middle line, while Zhao Yue fell outside the three-point line on the left side of the top of the arc.

Looking at the basket, Zhao Yue nodded slightly to Nash. Nash pushed the ball directly from the middle line, and Zhao Yue also rushed to the basket at this time.

"Steve passed the ball from the center line and passed the ball for a long distance. Zhao rushed over and he received the basketball... Oh, it seems that Zhao's first attempt did not succeed."

Starting from outside the three-point line and rushing to the basket, Zhao Yue jumped up to catch the basketball in the air, but this rhythm made him realize that he could not complete the dunk, so Zhao Yue grabbed the ball directly and landed on the floor. Pushing the ball back into Nash's hand, Zhao Yueshun made a good gesture.

Nash's pass did meet Zhao Yue's requirements, but Zhao Yue himself did not adjust the rhythm.

"Start again, Zhao didn't do any follow-up actions just now, so we couldn't understand the specific content of his dunk this time. Let Zhao tell us the answer with his actions. Steve pushed the ball out again on the middle line..."

Nash pushed the ball out of the middle line again, and Zhao Yue calculated the time to rush to the basket. Compared with the previous time, he started to rush a little earlier.

The powerful explosive power made Zhao Yue's speed reach its peak in an instant. Even at short distances, people can still feel that Zhao Yue's speed is very amazing. Rushing into the three-point line, Zhao Yue continued to rush forward, entered the penalty line two steps and soared into the air. His right hand grabbed the basketball in the air, and at the same time, his legs began to bend and lift.

took over the basketball that Nash passed just right, Zhao Yue's legs had also been raised to a position close to his abdomen, and his whole body curled up into a ball, while Zhao Yue's right hand quickly grabbed the ball and sent it under his buttocks at this time.

"Oh, Zhao is going to change hands in the air..." The people at the scene finally saw Zhao Yue's movements, and Kenny Smith immediately exclaimed. The audience on the sidelines also widened their eyes and dared not blink at all.

Zhao Yue's body seemed to pause in the air at this moment, but his hands did not stop. His right hand grabbed the ball and sent it to the bottom of his buttocks. His left hand also quickly lowered, and his hands passed the ball under his buttocks. When the ball reappeared in people's eyes, it was handed over by Zhao Yue to his left hand.

With huge shouts and screams, Zhao Yue's body suddenly opened, quickly pulled up the ball with his left hand, and dunked the ball to the basket sideways.

"Bum!" The basket made a not too loud sound, but the sound completely detonated the whole stadium at this time, and everyone stood up and encouraged their palms.

"Success! He succeeded! Zhao received Steve's long pass and changed hands behind the air to complete the dunk! Wow, this dunk is too difficult! It turns out that you can do this by changing hands in the air. Zhao's changing hands is not behind his back, but under his buttocks! Amazing stagnation ability! Unbelievable!" Kenny Smith was shouting excitedly, and the rest of the scene were shouting excitedly at this time, screaming throughout the stadium.

"King!!!!" God!!!" It's amazing!" I like this dunk. It's great. It's really great!"

"10!" 10!" The audience finally remembered that the referee had to score, and then shouted one after another. Although Zhao Yue took two chances to complete this action, in the eyes of the audience, only 10 points was worthy of such a dunk.

"Please start scoring, 10! 10! 10! 10! Still 10! Full marks! 50 points! Zhao's second deduction scored 50 points again! This is the only full score in the second round of the preliminaries, but I don't think anyone will object!"

50 points! It took Zhao Yue two times to complete this action, but this action is difficult enough. Whether it is Nash's accurate pass or Zhao Yue's hand change in the air, it is also very difficult for the judges to be picky.

After Zhao Yue's deduction was completed, the preliminary round was also over. Ibaka scored 90 points, McGee scored 98 points, Griffin scored 99 points, and Zhao Yue scored 100 points. So Griffin and Zhao Yue entered the final, which is no different from what people expected. The final will be the representative of the two most perverted insiders in the league!
