The Fifth Point Guard

After Shentong received MVP interviews with a large number of reporters, another Chinese player watching the game on the spot was surrounded by reporters on the inner third and outer third floors.

　　 Wang Zhizhi, who played for the Dallas Mavericks, smiled and asked questions.

Faced with an interview with reporters, Wang Zhizhi first congratulated his younger brother, Shen Tong. When talking about himself, Wang Zhizhi said that the most uncomfortable thing in the NBA is that some people accused him unreasonably: "When he has not yet come to the NBA , I said that I couldn’t get on the field at all, and walked away for at most one lap; when I got on the field, I said that I played all in garbage time, or only played in an unimportant game, and I didn’t get any points on the game; when I scored, It’s just a few points, but I’m still very grateful to these guys, because it can motivate me even more. They say that I will accept my shortcomings, and I will try my best to correct them. Then I want to see if they will say Something."

　　After participating in the first game in the NBA, Wang Zhizhi said that he had the bottom of his heart.

　　Whether Chinese players can play in the NBA or stand in the NBA, Wang Zhizhi is now full of confidence.

　　 "Shentong has become the idol of domestic young people, he has proved the strength and potential of Chinese players, and my next goal is to play the main force in the team."

At the end of the interview, Wang Zhizhi also sent Chinese New Year blessings to Chinese fans in advance.

　　February 10 is the 30th anniversary of Chinese New Year.

　　 In the days of the Chinese New Year, the NBA League presented two appetizers on the 30th day of the year, the dunk contest and the three-point contest.

　　 As for the dinner, I stayed on New Year's Day on February 11.

Due to the drastic changes in the rules of this dunk contest, not many superstar players have signed up, like Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, etc., who have been very loud before, including the popular Chinese player Shentong , Did not sign up for the competition, which made the fans regret.

　　 But the four players who signed up this year are not lacking.

Last year's slam dunk king Mason continued to play this year, in addition to the Rockets' legs tied with explosives guard Steve Francis, just played the NBA rookie challenge yesterday and performed well Jason Richardson, and the Kings are very The rookie Gerald Wallace.

　　According to the predictions before the game, the experts are unanimously optimistic about the defending champion Mason or Francis to win the championship. After all, Mason wearing the title of last year's dunk champion has proved himself, and the guy Francis lost to the last dunk contest was Vince Carter.

　　 As for Richardson and Wallace?

　　Farewell, the rookie just came to cheer.

　　......

　　However, the progress of the competition greatly exceeded the predictions of this group of bricks.

　　 Champions hot Mason and Francis were eliminated in the first round.

　　Patap.

　　Francis scored only 77 points, while Mason scored 84 points, but the two rookie players played even better in the first round.

　　 Wallace scored 87 points, overwhelming Mason into the final, another rookie Richardson scored 98 points.

　　Richardson fully proved that the muscular man + explosive power, as if the tank is equipped with wings, the basket was sparse.

　　 This visual impact made the judges shine.

　　In the two rounds of the final, Richardson scored 36 points and 49 points respectively, and finally defeated Wallace with 80 points with a total score of 85 points, winning the trophy of the dunk king.

　　......

　　 After the dunk contest, Shentong participated in the three-point contest.

The 　　 three-point contestant who gets the most points in a minute is the winner.

There are a total of 5 shooting points in the game: two with symmetrical base angles, two with 45° angular symmetry, and the other at the top of the arc.

　　 Each shooting point has 5 balls, 4 of which are orange, and the score is 1 point, and the final flower ball is red, blue, and white. It is called "moneyball" and can get 2 points.

　　 5 positions, a total of 25 goals, the full score is 30 points.

A total of eight players signed up for the three-point contest, including defending champion Ray Allen from the Bucks, Wesley Payson playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Mike Miller, second-year Magic, and Mavericks. Point guard Steve Nash, Celtics Paul Pierce, Clippers Quentin Richardson, Kings striker Peja Stojakovic and the Nets' Chinese cannon Shentong.

　　 This three-point contest is also a bright star. The participation of Ray Allen, Nash, Pierce and Peja will undoubtedly increase the gold content of this three-point contest champion.

　　 Ray Allen and Peja are popular candidates for the championship.

　　 The first appearance of Shentong as a rookie, no pressure, easy to play.

　　After missing the first two goals in the first position, Shentong gradually found the feel, and then he couldn't manage to make it, finally got a high score of 22 points.

　　Shentong's proofing put pressure on the players behind.

　　 Some players still play normally under pressure, such as Peja, scored 20 points.

　　 There were even more guys who were not optimistic before the game, who played exceptionally. Payson from the Cavaliers finally scored 19 points.

　　 Of course, there are also players who are abnormal under pressure. Ray Allen only scored 14 points, and the worst is Pierce, which only got a pitiful 8 points.

　　After the first round of knockout, the top three Shentong, Peja and Payson entered the final.

　　 Payson, who scored 19 points in the first round, made his first appearance, perhaps because of high expectations and too much pressure on himself. Payson's performance was quite abnormal, and he shot 5 points worse than Pierce's 8 points.

　　 For the entire 1 minute, everyone kept listening to the sound of "Dangdang Dang" as if it were not Philadelphia but Los Angeles.

　　After Payson ended, Peja, the second player, even asked the field staff to recalibrate the position of the basket.

　　However, the re-corrected rim seemed to make Peja very uncomfortable, and only scored a score of 9 points~www.NovelMTL.com~ When Peja's score came out, the scene was aimed at two people.

　　 One is Paul Pierce, and his 8 points are still quite competitive in the final. Pierce laughed when he saw himself on the camera.

　　Second is the third Shentong who is ready to play.

　　 In the case where the first two players are miserable, as long as Shentong plays normally, the champion will basically be handed.

　　 When the bell started, Shengtong took a deep breath and started his performance in the final.

　　 In the first two positions, Shentong got 10 points to end the suspense.

　　Finally, Shentong, who fought easily, got more and more smooth and got a high score of 24 points in the applause of people.

　　After winning the MVP in the Rookie Challenge, Shentong won the three-point contest.

　　 24 points was also tied to the Cavaliers Mark Price in the 1994 three-point contest to win the highest score in the game.

　　In the interview with the champion, Shen Tong said a classic award speech: "I guessed the end, but I didn't guess the process. (laughs)"

　　......

　　After finishing the first three events, many critics including Charles Barkley believed that the quality of this year's rookie was quite high, no less than the golden generation in 1996.

　　 They turned sophomores in the Rookie Challenge and also won the championships in the dunk contest and the three-point contest.
