The Fifth Point Guard - Chapter 577

  Chapter 579 The First Grand Slam in History (4.1k)

  As in previous years, the appetizer placed on the first day of the All-Star Weekend is also the Rookie Challenge.

  The lineup sent by the second-year team is:

Dwight Howard (Magic), Ruhr Deng (Bull), Ben Gordon (Bull), Nocioni (Bull), Devin Harris (Mavericks), TJ-Ford (Stags), Coase Titch (Nets), Jameer Nelson (Magic), Andre Iguodala (76ers).

  The rookie lineup for the first grade is:

Andrew Bogut (Stags), Luther Hyde (Rockets), Danny Granger (Pacers), Jaskovicius (Pacers), Chris Paul (Hornets), Channing- Frye (Knicks), Nate Robinson (Knicks), Charlie Villanueva (Bucks), Deron Williams (Jazz).

  The two teams each have 9 players.

  The Cavaliers have no personnel to participate, so Shen Tong, Wagner, Hardaway and others who came to watch the game together came with the mentality of watching the excitement.

Before the game, some media expressed optimism about the first-year team. Wagner also believed that the first-year rookie lineup with Paul and Williams had a chance to defeat the second-year team, but Shentong knew that this was impossible. Howard alone was for the first-year team. It means that there is no solution.

  Especially Howard lost the All-Star, which made this big boy quite dissatisfied.

   “I think my performance in the first two seasons is not worse than LeBron, but I failed to make an All-Star, which is too unfair to me.”

  It looks like Howard is going to play a big game in the Rookie Challenge.

  At 10 o’clock in the morning on February 18, the 2006 NBA All-Star Rookie Challenge began at the Toyota Center, home of the Houston Rockets.

  This is the 12th year of the Rookie Challenge and the 7th year of the first and second year confrontation.

  In the previous six years of confrontation, the second-year team had a slight advantage with a record of 4 wins and 2 losses.

  The starting lineup for the first-year team is Chris Paul, Deron Williams, Danny Granger, Channing Frye and Andrew Bogut.

The starting five for the second-year team are Devin Harris, Ben Gordon, Ruhr Deng, Andre Iguodala and Dwight Howard.

  At the beginning of the first half, Iguodala first scored a mid-range jumper, then Williams scored two points, Gordon hit a three-pointer from the outside, and the second-year team opened 5-2.

   But then the first grade scored a 9-3 climax under Paul’s needle threading, leading the score.

  The second-year team was too weak. After Hyde scored two points for a layup, they hit a 9-2 spurt to counterattack. Iguodala scored 7 points in this wave of offense and performed very well.

  After Iguodala staged a flying dunk, Iverson sitting on the sidelines immediately jumped up and pointed at Iguodala on the field and shouted: “Did you see it? That belongs to the Philadelphia 76ers!”

   Seeing that the second-year team is about to take off, Paul and Williams have worked in succession. Paul first hit a jumper and then assisted the latter to hit a three-pointer.

  Both teams are playing very fast.

  Howard staged two consecutive dunks under the basket, it seems that he wants to vent all the efforts and grievances in his heart.

  The basket was shaking constantly.

   Soon, Hyde sent an air-receiving pass, and Villanueva made a dunk in the air-relay.

  The two teams played inextricably in the first half, but the scene was very exciting, dunks and passes, like flowers, appeared one after another in front of the fans at the scene.

  At the end of halftime, the score was 54-51, and the second-year team led by 3 points.

  At the beginning of the second half, Paul hit a three-pointer from the outside to tie the score, but Iguodala stood up again, he scored 7 points in a row and helped the team lead 61-54.

  As Howard succeeded in dunking with both hands, Granger hit a three-pointer from outside, and Iguodala succeeded in dunking again, and the second-year team began to gradually open the score.

  The first-year team did not give up. Hyde succeeded in layups and jumpers. Williams also hit three-pointers, but unfortunately, the second-year team’s inside line was so good. Bogut had no sense of existence in front of Howard.

  As Iguodala hit a three-pointer, the second grade took a 21-point lead 93-72.

  The first grade took advantage of the second-year team’s slack time to launch a storm. Paul even staged a fast break dunk, but with Iguodala’s dunk still in color, the second-year team stabilized its position.

  Finally, the second-year team beat the first-year team 106-96.

  Iguodala became the most shining star in this game, scoring 30 points and winning the MVP trophy in the Rookie Challenge.

  On the first-year side, Villanueva scored a team-high 18 points and 12 rebounds. Hyde also had 18 points, Paul had 15 points and 11 assists, and Bogut had 12 points and 7 rebounds.

In the second grade, besides Iguodala, Ben Gordon also performed well, scoring 17 points. Howard contributed 16 points, 16 rebounds and 4 blocks, and Nocioni scored 13 points.

  Compared with last year’s rookie game, this year’s rookie game has equal support.

The rookies headed by the new queen Paul and the “Bag champion” Bogut had a high voice before the start of the game, the confrontation between Paul’s pass and Iguodala’s dunk, the two-time top picks Bogut and Howard The internal dialogue between them has become a new thing to show the fans in this rookie game.

  In the first-year camp, Paul and No. 1 Bogut, who have had a great reputation this season, have demonstrated their strength to fans and the second-year team through the Rookie Challenge after experiencing the adaptation period at the beginning of the season.

  However, compared with last year’s dazzling stars, this year’s rookie game is somewhat dim.

No more “Little Emperor” James, Jordan’s personal successor “Little Melon” Anthony, “The Flash” Wade, “Plexis” Bosh, and even the “Marksman” Korver, who has nothing to lose. No wonder someone said after the game that this rookie game is useless except for dunks.

   is an appetizer after all, even if it is slightly lighter, no one will compete.

  The next day, February 19th, hot dishes will be served on this day, and there are still three steaming dishes on the first day.

  Skills challenge, three-point shooting contest and dunk contest.

  The first thing to start is the skill challenge.

  After all, even if it is a hot dish, it is also about the cards. The skill challenge can only be placed on the first dish.

  However, although this competition has not been as popular as the last two in the past, this year is different.

  Because Shentong participated in this competition!

When someone asked him if it was because he won the three-pointer contest and the slam dunk contest and wanted to challenge the skill game to achieve the Grand Slam, Shen Tong smiled slightly and said: “There is only one reason for my coming here, Gilber If you can win the championship, then I will definitely be fine!”

  This is the sentence that made Arenas have to sign up for this competition and use actual actions to attack Shentong, which proves that his point of view is quite wrong.

  In front of the interview camera, Arenas’s mouth is also very hard.

   “I will teach him well in the game, just like I taught him in college.”

  This makes Wade and Nash very embarrassed.

  Wade and Nash: Are we not human? Are we human? How could it be skipped directly?

  This skill challenge is still divided into two rounds. Players must complete basic technical actions such as dribbling over obstacles, fixed-point passing, and shooting in a designated field. The player with the shortest time will win.

  The lineup for this year’s competition is exceptionally strong.

  In addition to the defending champion Arenas, there are also league-popular Wang Shentong, “Flash” Wade and “Solar Propeller” Nash.

  After a brief warm-up, the game officially started.

  The first round is the preliminaries.

  The first to appear is Shentong.

  When Shentong walked onto the court, the atmosphere on the scene immediately became enthusiastic.

   Arenas couldn’t help saying: “This is a warm-up show, right? Why is it so hot all of a sudden?”

   Wade’s tone was full of envy.

   “When will I have such popularity.”

  ”Take your cheeks out first.”

  ”.”

  As a defender, Shentong’s handwork is still quite good.

  Add Avril, Alba, Dubrov and others

  Shen Tong’s dribbling, ball control, and passing skills are three shots in the day, and he has made great progress!

   Amidst the cheering of the fans, Shen Tong finished the game in one go.

The    time is 28.1 seconds.

   Very good results.

  If it were not for Shentong to ensure a one-time success rate, perhaps the speed would be faster.

  In other words, Shentong did not try its best.

  The second player to appear is Nash, who missed a shot from the top of the circle.

  I don’t know if it was because there was no pick-and-roll or no defense, the commander suddenly lost his focus.

  After a series of attempts and finally hit, he is doomed to miss the finals.

  The time is 52.8 seconds.

   Marion and Stoudemire, who were watching the ball on the sidelines, hugged each other with a smile.

  I don’t know if Nash sees this scene, whether he will give them cakes in the future.

   Wade played third.

  The Heat’s leading star also wastes too much time on top of the circle shooting, but he is better than Nash.

  The time is 39 seconds.

  After the little brother’s game, O’Neal stepped forward, pretending to instruct Wade on how to dribble, pass and shoot the ball, which made people laugh.

  Finally, the defending champion Arenas made a grand debut.

  The general has also accumulated a lot of popularity in the league now, so when he played, the cheers on the scene were not small.

   seems to be a little nervous, Arenas took three hits and passes to succeed, but he still completed a shot from the top of the circle.

  In the end, Arenas took 37.5 seconds, which is slightly better than Wade.

  In this way, two good brothers, Shentong and Arenas, joined hands to enter the finals.

   “Chicken, you must play to your highest level, otherwise I won’t have a sense of accomplishment to beat you.”

   “Let’s take a look, I will tell you, my chicken won the championship last time, it is definitely not a bad name!”

  According to the results of the first round, Arenas took the lead.

  Perhaps because the opponent is Shentong, Arenas really concentrated all his energy on the game.

  All actions are completed at once, and the time is 27.6 seconds!

   broke the fastest result of Shentong in the first round.

  When Arenas finished the last action, he made a signature action: open his hands and greet the cheers from the scene.

   “Have you seen it, Shin, this is the champion!”

   “It’s okay, kid, there are two things!”

  Shen Tong took the ball and walked onto the court.

  Now the pressure is all on Shentong’s side.

  But for Shentong, pressure is just motivation, and it will not affect your mentality.

  For people who have “dead” once, how can they still be stressed.

  As soon as the whistle sounded, Shentong was activated!

With the progress of the Shentong game, the exclamation and cheers on the scene went up and down, and Arenas gradually widened his eyes. Even McGrady, who was watching the game, gradually opened his eyes. opened!

  Shentong actually bowed left and right!

  After passing the ball, proceed to the next action without watching the ball!

   reveals Shentong’s strong self-confidence.

  To pass the ball, in order to maximize the speed, Shentong directly held the ball with his left hand. Before reaching the line, he directly completed the action with his left hand, and then directly twisted and ran to the next point.

   Arenas was stunned.

   “He, he, he, he.” Like King Gigi said, “When did he practice his left hand?”

For Shentong, the three-pointer at the top of the circle is no different from a free throw, and it is easy to make a hollow shot.

  As Shentong finished the layup, the lights on the scene kept flashing!

  Shen Tong raised his head, 22.7 seconds!

   Created the fastest record!

  Barkley, who is in charge of the live broadcast commentary, even directly said “this result will be the ceiling of this event”.

  What’s more, Smith, who has always liked to mock Barkley, dare not refute it.

  Advance the recording by 3 seconds at once.

  This is definitely an increase in height.

  To know how difficult it is to go further.

Players such as Kidd, Nash, Paul, Deron, Payton, etc. were watching this game. When the camera was cut to them, they were all self-deprecating smiles, shaking their heads, pursing their lips, and nodding their heads. Obviously In their hearts, this result is beyond their reach.

  Shen Tongyi is a man of great courage and has shown extremely strong confidence and strength in this skill challenge.

  The first person to bow left and right!

  When Shentong walked off the court, Arenas didn’t say much, but directly bowed with both hands and bowed to Shentong.

  This is completely convinced.

  When Shentong raised the skill challenge championship trophy, he also became the first Grand Slam winner in NBA history!

That is, the first person in the history of the NBA to win the Rookie Challenge MVP, the Skills Challenge Championship, the 3-pointer Championship, the Slam Dunk Championship, and the All-Star Race MVP ~www.mtlnovel.com~ No record before, I am afraid In a few decades, it will be difficult to break.

  This record really requires some luck, and even some very special talents.

  In Barkley’s view, Shentong is already the best wing player in the league after Michael Jordan.

   “If there are five shooting guards in the league, Shentong is definitely the only one, and the remaining four are in another one.” Barkley vowed.

  Shentong’s victory has already heated up the atmosphere on the scene, and the next is the three-pointer contest.

  This year’s three-pointer contest is a bit special, because a big man has also come to participate in this game, this person is the Mavericks “German chariot” Dirk Nowitzki.

  A power forward to participate in the three-pointer contest is rare, and it is also quite interesting in itself.

  In addition to Nowitzki, the players who signed up were Ray Allen, Raja Bell, Jason Terry, Chauncey Billups and defending champion Quentin Richardson.
