From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 165 The Peak Showdown Between Jianghu and Splash Brothers
"Clay is in excellent form. He only lost 2 points in the first two points. He has a chance to challenge the record."

As soon as Barkley finished speaking, Thompson immediately dropped the third point, making 5 of 3 shots and scoring 4 points.

It is indeed the most poisonous milk in the basketball world, and it really lives up to its reputation.

Fortunately, Barkley is a star of the Suns, and the effect of his poisonous milk on the Warriors players has been weakened...

"Swipe, brush, brush, brush, brush."

At the fourth shooting point, at the top of the 45-degree arc on the right, Thompson went straight to the five-star line and scored 6 points. At the end of the three points, he already had 20 points in hand.

"Fuck, 22 points!!"

When Jianghu and Curry saw Thompson rush to the last point and hit a bouquet again, their hearts jumped in tacit understanding, and then the two looked at each other quietly.

You must know that Thompson still has 4 flower balls next. If he hits all of them, it will be 30 points. Jiang Hu and Curry may not be able to shoot 30 points every time...

At this time, the fans and the spectators on the sidelines had already stood up excitedly. Thompson was also very excited, but he still kept his face unchanged and continued to shoot coldly.

Although he doesn't say anything on the surface, he is always very unconvinced that he can become the All-Star vote leader in his rookie season, so he will be particularly excited to play against the Celtics this season.

Similarly, although Curry has always been hailed as the strongest three-pointer, Thompson never thought that Curry could beat himself in the field of three-pointers.

In this three-point contest, when he learned that Curry was invited by Jianghu to participate in the competition, Thompson changed his training plan and added an hour and a half of three-point contest-style shooting training every day. Prove yourself by defeating Ball.

He let those fans know that Thompson is as good as anyone in the field of three-pointers.

"22, 24, boom, 26, 28."

"Klay scored 28 points in the final, breaking the record. Incredible performance!!!"

"The next two players are under a lot of pressure!!!"

"Don't worry, the results are used to surpass. Curry and Jianghu are players who are getting more and more headwinds. Although it is difficult to surpass Clay's results, we still have to wait and see!!!"

Jiang Hu was amazed to watch from the sidelines. Klay Thompson is worthy of being called the Buddha. In the field of three-pointers, his strength is really not just boasting.

Jiang Hu glanced at Curry who was sitting aside, and suddenly murmured in his heart.

"I don't know how the Warriors selected them, but they selected these two perverts to the same team!!"

"I feel like a pervert!!"

After Thompson finished the game, he finally released his emotions, but he released his emotions in a unique way. He drank a whole bottle of Gatorade to calm down his excited breathing.

But on his face, there was still that calm and paralyzed look.

The second person to appear is Jiang Hu.

It must be false to say that he is not nervous, after all, the opponent in front just scored 1 points a minute ago.

The good thing is that he missed a bouquet and thus missed the 30+ shooting contest for the first time in history, but his 28 points are still the best in history. If he gets 30+, the pressure of the world will be overwhelming It's really big. Although Jianghu also has the strength of more than 30+, if you play with such pressure, it is difficult to guarantee that you will be able to shoot at your own level.

The Celtics teammates who came to watch the game were very nervous. He felt that Jianghu might be kneeling. Although Jianghu usually scored 30 points in training, it is too difficult to bring such pressure to the game. It is too difficult to come back up.

After Thompson left the court, Jiang Hu stepped forward to congratulate this difficult opponent, then walked to the court, waiting for his game to start.

At this time, commentators around the world are not very optimistic about Jianghu's ability to surpass Thompson's results. Even O'Neill, who is very supportive of Jianghu, thinks that Jianghu's chances are not great. Thompson's 28 points are already the best score in history, let alone later There is also a three-point god Curry.

"It's a pity. I really want to congratulate Thompson in advance. He was able to score 28 points under the pressure of Curry and Jianghu. He is indeed a man who can make the boss kneel down for him!!"

For Jianghu, the only good news in this game is that Thompson missed the last flower ball and did not score 30 points. If it is 30 points, it is not a matter of hopelessness, but complete despair.

Jianghu stood at the top of the arc and waited for the staff to rearrange the basketball. The timer on the sidelines entered a 30-second countdown. The moment the countdown started, the game would officially begin.

321
The commentator saw Jiang Hu standing still at the top of the arc, and didn't react until the game was about to start, what choice Jiang Hu made.

"Jiang chose the flower ball point at the top of the arc as the start???"

“Incredible selection!!!”

"He put the pressure on the first point. If all hits will give him a lot of confidence, but if there are no hits, the pressure will be very huge!!!"

Jianghu didn't have time to pay attention to those commentaries. At the moment the game whistle sounded, he quickly grabbed the basketball at hand and threw the ball with his most accustomed shooting speed. The first ball hit the net in the air.

"Okay. Good luck, good omen!!"

After Jianghu scored the first goal, he immediately put all the pressure behind him.

He was a little worried on the sidelines just now, but as soon as he returned to the court and saw the familiar Lakers floor, the retired jersey in the southeast corner of the arena and the championship banner above his head, his confidence returned instantly.

He used to be a fan of the Lakers, and now he is the head of the Celtics team. There is nothing more enjoyable than being a Celtics player at the Lakers' home court.

With the hit of the first ball, his pressure completely dissipated.

The first point "唰~唰~唰~唰~唰"

After the first ball was hit, he didn't slow down in his hand, he pulled it up and threw it, making 4 consecutive shots.

"Bold choices have brought rich rewards. Jianghu scored 10 points directly in the flower ball point at the first point!!"

Jianghu uses both hands and feet, and after the ball is thrown at the top of the front arc, he immediately shifts to the top of the arc on the left at 45 degrees, and continues to shoot.

"Swipe." The first ball at the top of the arc on the left was hit again, which made Jiang Hu more confident in shooting, and more relaxed when shooting. He basically relied on muscle instinct to complete the shot, including the final bouquet, which was completely regarded as normal. Shoot like a ball.

"There is one full hit, Jianghu has scored 10 points in 16 consecutive hits, his touch is simply unstoppable!!!"

O'Neill's voice was obviously not fast enough. Before he could say this, Jiang Hu had reached the left corner and threw the first orange ball.

"brush."

It was another hit, but Jianghu had no time to rejoice at all. He is currently in the best rhythm. He must seize the opportunity and throw all the balls in one go.

There is an unwritten rule in the three-point contest. Fans are not allowed to make noise when players shoot. Once you do this, you are likely to be glared at by everyone in Zhou Guo, and you may be asked out of the arena by security personnel. .

But now, it is impossible for the security personnel to do this, because there are already tens of thousands of fans present who can't help sending out
"Oh" exclaimed, it is impossible to invite them all out, right?

The rivers and lakes were not affected at all, and the second shot was hit again.

He has completely entered his own shooting rhythm. At this time, he only has the basket in his eyes, and even taking the ball is a subconscious movement. At this time, unless someone shouts in his ear, or hits him with a ball Otherwise, he would not be able to hear the fans' voices at all.

At the third point, he hit all of them again, and he has hit 15 consecutive hits from the beginning to now.

"15 hits in a row, 22 points at the end of three points, incredible performance!!!"

"The previous highest hit in the three-point contest came from Stephen Curry's 13 hits on the sidelines. Today's score has been refreshed!!!"

At this time, Thompson and Curry on the sidelines also began to sit up and look at Jianghu. Just now he was talking and laughing with Curry, but now he is staring at the basket without blinking.

Fans all over the world are dumbfounded seeing this, and there are also commentators from various countries who swear that Thompson has won the game...
After Jianghu shot the left corner, he quickly ran from the basket to the right corner. When he ran, his feet were not stable, and he even slipped a certain distance...

But the casters didn't dare to say anything about the fact that almost falling might affect their state, because they were afraid that Jianghu would hit them again immediately and slap them in the face with naked facts.

The fourth point, Jianghu's shot rhythm remained the same, and he didn't even notice that he almost fell.

But it still gave him some influence, and his first ball in the right corner was missed.

The first ball at each point is very important, but he will not doubt himself just because he doesn't score, but chooses to continue to make shots...

He didn't have time to think about whether the ball was scored or not. He only knew that he was still in the shooting rhythm. There was only one thing he had to do, and that was to shoot all the balls before this feeling disappeared.

Fortunately, he hit the second ball immediately and steadily.

Next, the third ball, the fourth ball, the fifth ball, consecutive hits.

Another wave of four hits! ! !

"27 points." At this time, the TV commentators in various countries stopped talking, but helped Jianghu count the scores in a unified and tacit understanding.

"28 points." The fans found that their counting could not keep up with Jianghu's shooting speed. They hadn't finished counting the last ball, but Jianghu had already scored the next goal.

"29 points." Sure enough, the fans hadn't finished counting the last goal, and Jianghu scored the next goal.

"30 points!!!" When the last two balls were left in the last point, Jianghu was already winning.

The fans at the scene were also very happy to watch. Sometimes this kind of long-range shots with consecutive shots has a stronger visual impact than the dunks of flying into the sky.

Thompson had already relaxed at this time. When Jiang Hu scored 30 points, he shook his head helplessly...

He has tried his best. Although 29 points is by no means his usual limit, it is already the best score he has participated in several All-Star competitions. If he loses the game like this, there is nothing he can do.

Jianghu's shots in the last two goals were a little fast, and the speed of his shots almost reached the effect of convulsions.

The two balls even lined up in the air. As soon as the first ball reached the highest point, the second ball had already been shot! !

"31..." The first ball was hit steadily.

The last ball flew in the air, and everyone present seemed to feel that time had slowed down.
"brush!!"

The basketball went through the net like a sword again...
"33!! A new historical record!!"

After the last shot was made, all the fans in the audience left the stools they were sitting on, stood up and released cheers enough to knock down the roof of the arena.

In the huge arena, there was loud cheers from mountains and tsunami! !
The rivers and lakes once again created a miracle. Under the tremendous pressure of Thompson breaking the record, he withstood the pressure, tenaciously turned against the wind, and blasted a 33-point three-pointer, the highest record in history, in a miraculous way like a Hollywood movie Completed his debut.

Everyone gathered around Jianghu to celebrate wildly, as if he had already won the championship ahead of time.

"But—all spectators, the competition is not over yet!!"

"There is the last player who did not play, he is Stephen Curry from the Golden State Warriors, the man who shot 400 three-pointers in a single season!!"

After hearing the commentary, the impetuous atmosphere at the scene became a little quieter.

Indeed, it is not appropriate to celebrate winning the championship in advance when the game is not over.

The last one to play was Curry. As the popular candidate for the three-point contest, he was also under great pressure, because according to everyone's predictions, the Splash Brothers would either not come, or they would definitely win the championship.

But in fact, he has never shot more than Jianghu in the three-point contest. Even in daily training, he only has the opportunity to score more than 30 points when he is in excellent condition...

Fortunately, Curry is a player with a big heart. He shook his head heavily before the game started, took out a pair of braces and chewed heavily, and instantly threw all distracting thoughts out of his mind and focused on the game.

"duo~"

With a whistle, the game started.

Curry used the same method as Jianghu, using the 45° on the left as his curd point, and also started from the curd point.

Jianghu noticed that Curry did not follow the rhythm of the first round in the final, but accelerated his shooting speed, but this not only did not reduce his shooting rate, but made his touch feel better.

He started from 45° on the left, and he didn't miss a single shot at the first point and the second point. Two people could score 16 points.

The place was quiet again...

It seems that there is still a reversal. This person is Curry. In the field of three-pointers, he may not be able to do what others cannot do.

At the third point, he continued to work hard, hit 5 goals in a row, and scored another 6 points. At the end of the three points, he had 22 points in hand.

"Damn it, this one is stronger than Jiang!!"

"As expected of Ku Ritian, this is too much!!!"

Jiang Hu was completely dumbfounded watching from the sidelines, while Thompson and Durant next to each other crossed their shoulders and laughed so hard that their mouths almost went behind their ears.

Thompson is already out, and the only hope for the Splash Brothers lies in Curry.

In the fourth point, his performance continued to be strong, and he continued to make consecutive shots. At the end of the four points, he scored 28 points.

"It's unbelievable that Stephen hit 20 straight shots in a row. It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable!!"

The fans at the scene had already held their breath, and they didn't dare to take a breath. They were very entangled at the moment...

I want to witness history on the spot and let Curry break the record just created by Jianghu again, but at the same time I hope he will not be too accurate.

But Curry, as a killer three-point shooter, will not show mercy.

When he came to the bouquet point in the bottom corner, he didn't hesitate at all.

He hit 3 goals in a row, and scored 31 points before the last goal, surpassing Thompson's score.

"Swipe." His hand speed did not slow down, and he hit a bouquet again.

"24 hits in a row!!!"

"32 points!!!"

"Can he perform miracles???"

So everyone is looking forward to Curry's performance, and the heartbeat of Jianghu is completely out of control, up and down, extremely anxious! !
However, Curry hesitated when he took the last shot because the timer at this time showed 6 seconds left.

This made him sometimes breathe steadily, relax his body, take a deep breath before shooting...

"Stephen breathed steadily, he wanted to hit the ball steadily, so that he has a great chance to become the first player to get a full score in the three-point contest."

The face of the arena on the sidelines has dimmed a bit. Curry has scored 32 points. If he is the last one to score, his three-pointer champion will be bye.

"Fortunately, I probably won't be able to score..." But Jianghu knew that the goal should be difficult to score when Curry made a shot.

As the league's top three-point shooter who shoots a lot of three-pointers, Jianghu knows one thing very clearly, that is, the best form of a shooter should be to shoot according to the instinct of the body.

Curry thinks this ball is too important in his heart. When he saw that there was enough time when he made consecutive hits, he even forcibly stepped on the brakes to adjust his rhythm, but this kind of action destroyed his shooting rhythm and lost his rhythm. It's hard to hit.

After Curry made the shot, he still kept his shot, his eyes fixed on the bouquet in the sky.

In his eyes, the passage of time seems to be slowing down at this time. He can clearly see the flight path of the basketball in the air, watching the basketball slowly rise and then slowly fall...

When the basketball reached its highest point and began to fall, his brows frowned slightly. His subconscious mind told him that the ball's falling trajectory might be a back-rim ball...

"duang!!!"

The basketball finally fell, and as expected, it finally knocked out of the basket.

Curry shook his hand violently, spat out the braces in his mouth heavily, and then squatted down, covering his face in pain.

Although he made the first 24 consecutive hits in the unprecedented three-point contest, he missed the most important goal and finished second with 32 points.

For Curry, this is definitely a great regret.

Barkley's voice began to sound in front of the TV at this moment:

"Unfortunately, after making 24 consecutive shots, Curry still failed to maintain a 100% shooting rate in the end."

"This may be like life. When we give it a go, we may create unimaginable miracles, but when we settle down and hesitate, the opportunity may slip away from us!!"

"Congratulations Jianghu, finally won the final victory in this pinnacle battle!!"

"This three-point contest is undoubtedly the most exciting one in history. All three players have the strength of champions. There has never been a game in history where three players have scored 29+."

"And breaking the record of the three-point contest is an extremely rare moment in history, but today we saw it three times in 10 minutes. It was incredible. I even wondered if I went up and scored 28 points or something."

"Anyway, let's congratulate Jianghu for becoming the new three-point king. He wiped out the three-point record that Thompson just set 2 minutes ago, and raised this record to 33 points in one breath. Ninth Wonder."

"We would also like to express our gratitude to Stephen Curry for his outstanding performance that kept the suspense in the game until the last moment."

"At the same time, we should also be thankful that Jianghu is still one goal away from the full score, which gives the later players still a chance to surpass him, instead of looking at his record and sighing!!!"
