Chapter 245 The All-Star Game(1/2)
Chapter 245 The second update of the All-Star Game
After a while, Emma replied to him: "Hmph, don't look for me, I've already returned to the hotel. If you want to see me, you will find me in the All-Star Game auditorium tomorrow night. Humph..."
After receiving this text message, Wu Feng was so depressed that he wanted to hit the wall: "Emma, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me? I don't know how many fans will go to watch tomorrow night's All-Star Game. There are not 25,000, and there are 20,000. If you want me to find you among so many people, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
"Who wants you to laugh at me? I finally mustered up the courage to give you a surprise, but you...hum!" Emma replied.
"Okay, okay, I know I'm wrong. OK, if you say you want to look for it, I'll look for it. I will definitely find you at a glance tomorrow night." Wu Feng replied.
After waiting for a while, Emma replied: "This is what you said, then I'll wait for you to find me. Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I'll go take a shower."
"Well, have a good rest." Wu Feng replied hurriedly.
After coaxing Emma, Wu Feng breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to watch the final dunk contest.
As the most popular competitive event, the Dunk Contest is also the finale of tonight. The four contestants participating in the Dunk Contest are Blake Griffin of the Clippers, Javier McGee of the Wizards, Demar DeRozan of the Raptors and Sergi Ibaka of the Thunder.
Since the NBA started the slam dunk contest in 1984, this event has also been constantly updated. What is different from the past in this year's slam dunk contest is that every dunk contest will have a counselor, Blake Griffin and TNT TV commentator, two-time slam dunk contest contestants (1990 and 1991) Kenny Smith partnered; Javier McGee and TNT TV commentator, 5 times selected as NBA All-Star Chris Weber partnered; Demar DeRozan will partner with NBA celebrity Darrell Dawkins, known as the "chocolate bomb"; and Serge Ibaka is partnered with his Thunder teammate Kevin Durant.
First round of preliminaries
The first appearance was Darrell Dawkins. He announced the dunk of his "disciple" Demar DeRozan "east bay funk dunk" (turning to the dunk counterclockwise), but Demar DeRozan, who was the first to play, was a little nervous and did not make a good move. He missed two attempts after coming up, and finally got 44 points with a dunk under his crotch after receiving the ball from his teammate.
The second one to play was Sergi Ibaka of the Thunder. His creative appearance was like the Olympic appearance ceremony. A beautiful woman was cheering behind the scenes. But it turned out that Sergi Ibaka was not just a flowery stand. After he came up, he directly grabbed the ball and completed a gliding dunk at the free throw line, which shocked everyone. This dunk finally scored 45 points.
The third player who appeared was Yi Jianlian's teammate, "Spring Man" Javier McGee. He held two balls in both hands and wanted to dunk two balls into two baskets at the same time. This creativity is unprecedented and the difficulty is so high that it challenges the limits of human beings.
After several failures, Javel McGee finally dunked the ball into the basket. He held the ball in both hands, first threw the right-hand ball to the left basket, and then took the rebound and rebounded to dunk the ball into the right basket. At the same time, he also dunked the left-hand ball into the left basket at the same time. After the "dunk double hit" was completed, it immediately aroused the amazement of the whole game. In the end, the referee gave a full score of 50 points, and Javel McGee also became the 22nd player to get full score in the dunk competition.
"Mckey's goal is so amazing, it's both creative and difficult." Wu Feng and Durant beside him said.
"Yes, I can't think of such an idea anyway. Wu, are you interested in participating in next year's slam dunk contest?" Durant asked Wu Feng with a smile.
Wu Feng smiled and said, "If the alliance invites you, maybe I will participate. But, we have to see the status at that time. If it is the same as this year, it probably won't work."
After hearing this, Durant replied with a smile: "I really look forward to your appearance in the dunk contest."
"Don't tease me, keep watching! It seems Griffin is going to appear." Wu Feng said.
The last one to play was Blake Griffin. After Lifen came up, he wanted to make a restricted action that would only appear in the electronic game. He completed a 540-degree dunk in the rotation. Unfortunately, both of these dunks failed. In the second dunk, even Blake Griffin himself was confused and didn't even touch the basket, and turned directly to the rebound. As time was not left, Blake Griffin also reduced the difficulty of dunking and scored 49 points with a 360-degree dunk.
Soon, the second round of the preliminaries will be staged later.
Demar DeRozan, the first to play, used a shocking throw and then received the rebound ball to complete a one-handed dunk. This dunk was completed in one go, and he scored another full score of 50 points.
Whether in terms of quality or difficulty of completion, this dunk is really excellent.
Sergi Ibaka's second dunk was very creative, just like a sitcom. A child begged Sergi Ibaka to get the plush toy bear hanging on the basket, while Sergi Ibaka directly used his mouth to hold the "bear" on the basket with his mouth while completing the dunk. Although it was very creative, the dunk was not difficult, so he only scored 45 points in the end.
The third place to play was Blake Griffin, who ranked second in the first round of the preliminary round. His dunk was cooperated with his teammate Byron Davis, and Davis knocked the ball to the rebound. Then Blake Griffin completed a 360-degree windmill dunk after receiving the ball. However, due to the difficulty, this dunk attempt failed several times. In the end, Blake Griffin was forced to reduce the difficulty again, and he rebounded along the side of the rebound to complete the windmill dunk, which scored 46 points.
The last one to play was Javier McGee. Javier McGee also specially invited his mother to be a supporting role. Javier McGee's mother used a emotional offensive and kissed five referees one after another. Javier McGee chose to dunk three goals this time, holding two ordinary goals by himself, while his teammate Wall held a colored ball. In the end, Wall threw the colored ball to the rebound, and then Javier McGee dunked three goals into the same basket one after another. After several attempts, this time it was finally completed.
In the end, Blake Griffin (95 points) and Javier McGee (99 points) joined hands to enter the finals.
Fans at the scene lamented that this year's dunk contest was much more exciting than in the previous two years, and Wu Feng and Durant also commented in this way.
After the finals began, Blake Griffin took the lead in the game. He still chose to conquer fans with pure body flow. Blake Griffin's first dunk in the final was to throw the ball to the rebound, and then he took the rebound and completed the one-handed arm hang. This dunk was very exciting, but it seemed that it was suspected of imitating Carter's arm hang in 2000, and did not have a shocking effect.
Javille McGee's first move was also extremely difficult. He first held the ball and then rushed to the rebound, and then bent the ball into the basket while his body was still behind the rebound. As a 7-foot-long man, this dunk was indeed very challenging. Javille McGee had a head dodge in the air and finally dunked the ball into it. Even the coach Weber on the sideline shouted excitedly.
The second round of the final
Blake Griffin finally started to take out his ultimate skill. While using props, the sings cheered. His creativity was to fly over the car. In the car, Byron Davis was still cooperating with Blake Griffin. He poked his head slightly from the roof of the car. After Blake Griffin assisted, Davis threw the ball with the trend, and Lifen jumped directly to catch the ball and finished gliding. He flew over the car and dunked with both hands. This shocking dunk also caused a sensational effect.
Javier McGee chose to challenge the limit of human bounce in the second dunk in the final. After completing the first rotating dunk, Javier McGee felt a little dissatisfied. His second dunk was self-dumping, and he flew high and smashed the ball into the basket. Although the leap height was ashamed, the creativity of the dunk was relatively mediocre.
In the end, the dunk contest once again entered the "they dunk. you decide" stage. In the fan voting session, the more popular Blake Griffin defeated Javille McGee 68 and won the 2011 Dunk Contest championship.
At this point, the results of the six major competitions before the All-Star Game have come out.
In the rookie challenge, the first-year team beat the second-year team, and Wu Feng won the mvp with an overwhelming advantage.
In the three-point competition, the unknown James Jones beat Durant, Paul Pierce and others to win the championship.
In the Skill Challenge, the ‘Cute God’ Stephen Curry beat Paul, Ross and others to win the championship.
Atlanta United won the championship in the Shooting Stars Competition.
Celebrity Championship, the West beat the East, and Justin Bieber won the MVP.
In the final dunk contest, last year's No. 1 pick Blake Griffin beat Javier McGee and others to win the dunk contest championship.
"This year's slam dunk competition is really good, it's very exciting, especially McGee's slam dunk." Wu Feng did not hide his praise for Javier McGee.
Durant praised Blake Griffin, who said to Wu Feng: "I think Griffin's dunk is good, and he dunks with a leap car, haha..."
Wu Feng didn't want to argue with Blake Griffin, so he smiled and said to him: "Kevin, we are going to fight again tomorrow. Although you are the starter and I am the substitute, there are not many opportunities to meet. However, as long as you meet, I will not show mercy!"
"Just let the horse come over! Haha..." Kevin Durant said without any weakness.
After all the competitions tonight, Wu Feng and Kevin Durant quickly separated and went home.
After Wu Feng returned home, he quickly took a shower, then called Emma and went to bed.
He must develop a good spirit for tomorrow's All-Star Game.
…………
Today is the last day of the All-Star Weekend, and the highly anticipated All-Star Game will also begin today.
This is also the first time Wu Feng has participated in the All-Star Game, so he is still a little nervous.
When the time came to 6:30 pm and half an hour before the start of the game, the Staples Center, which had only 18,997 seats, accommodated at least 20,000 fans tonight. The remaining seats were added temporarily, and the ticket prices were much higher than before.
Although the fans felt that these businessmen were too treacherous, they were still willing to spend money to watch the game on site. The fans were holding various thundersticks in their hands, preparing to cheer for the supporters during the game.
Los Angeles is worthy of being the "City of Angels". The stadium is surrounded by fans, but also with many celebrities, including politicians, celebrities, and great directors.
Even two Oscar winners - Jack Nicholson and Dustin Hoffman - were present to help.
Wu Feng and other stars who are preparing to play in the All-Star Game are practicing shooting on the court.
However, during the shooting practice before the game, the all-stars from the east and west had different expressions.
Kobe, the two Lakers stars, had a cold expression and was ready to go. When the camera turned to Gasol, Espanyol was expressionless at first, but then he suddenly picked up the basketball, turned around and waved his arms, and made various large-scale movements, slow and soft, as if playing Tai Chi.
In the subsequent appearance ceremony, LeBron James had always had the habit of throwing magnesium powder, but this time he simply joined Dwight Howard, Dwyane Wade and others to the Eastern Conference starter, walked to the front of the recording stage, and five people held magnesium powder together, and LeBron James even made a face at Howard's "Warcraft".
Subsequently, the five starters in the East threw their hands and magnesium powder sprinkled into the air, adding a bit of festive atmosphere.
When the DJ on the scene called Wu Feng's name, Wu Feng quickly rushed out of the player's channel and came to the field.
Wu Feng's appearance was immediately cheered by all the fans.
This is Wu Feng's first season, and he was selected by the coaches to the All-Star Game with outstanding performance in the first season, which is of supreme honor.
In addition to Wu Feng, there is another person in this All-Star Game who was selected for the All-Star Game in the first season of his career. This player is Blake Griffin.
Although he entered the NBA in 2009, he was reimbursed for the first season due to injury and did not play a single game. So this season was his first season.
After introducing the roster of Eastern All-Stars on the spot, American rock star Lanny Kravitz made a debut on the show, which was warmly welcomed by the fans on the scene.
In the west, "Stone Buddha" Duncan appeared in front of the media with his wife and daughter, who are not usually exposed, and Shi Buddha's warmth is undoubtedly showing his every move.
When the East-West starters came on the court at the same time, the fans on the scene screamed.
More than 20,000 fans screamed, how spectacular it was.
Then, the highly-watched All-Star Game officially kicked off.
"Warcraft" Howard and "Stone Buddha" Duncan stood together, and the two were about to start jumping.
"Drip", when the referee's whistle sounded, the ball had already flown into the air.
"Bang", the young and strong "World" won the jump ball this time, and the ball was won by LeBron James.
Although Yao Ming could not play in the All-Star Game, he still came to the scene to watch this exciting game.
There are many old guys in the All-Star arena, such as Tim Duncan, Kobe, and Kevin Garnett. These guys watch them less every time, so fans cherish them very much, including Yao Ming.
After the first timeout of the first quarter, the program arranged on site was for two children to compete in dancing skills. Although they were young, they were quite capable. Careful audiences would also find that one of the dancers' "superman" actors in Ibaka's dunk yesterday are now the protagonist of this show.
Wu Feng has not played yet, but he is not idle either. He has been searching for Emma Watson on the sidelines.
But until now, he still couldn't find Emma. There were too many spectators on the scene. It was not easy to find a girl like Emma hiding inside.
When the first quarter was five minutes and fifteen seconds, Wu Feng and Kevin Garnett went up together, replacing Derek Ross and Amare Stoudemire respectively.
When Wu Feng came to the court, there were screams.
Many fans came to visit Wu Feng, and there were many overseas Chinese.
"Feng!" Among the many noisy sounds, Wu Feng heard someone calling him.
No need to guess, Emma Watson must have called himself.
But Wu Feng couldn't tell where the sound came from, so he could only make a rough judgment.
Then, he glanced in the audience, and finally, God paid off and he saw Emma.
Although Emma was wearing a baseball cap, he still recognized Emma at a glance.
Emma also saw him, nodded at him, and then gave him an encouraging look.
