Chapter 96

This made the two FMVPs a little restless, but Curry was still calm.

In the first round, 6 out of 3 players will be eliminated, and Curry now has Pierce, Billups and Frye backing him up, so there is no need to panic.

Then comes the third shooting spot at the top of the key.

Du Zhe's momentum was already unstoppable, after quickly reaching the top of the arc, he started to strike without even taking a breath.

The first four balls were hit one after another, but it was a pity that the fifth colored ball missed a little bit.

After three shots, Du Zhe scored 15 points.

Off the field, Pierce and Billups couldn't help but look at each other.
The two of them couldn't help but feel that this year's three-point contest is too complicated. Two rookies who just popped up this season have such strong shooting ability.

As for Du Zhe, who is a talented and bold player, he was ready to play with his hands after reaching the fourth shooting spot.

"Brush!" He hit the first ball easily and scored 16 points.

Immediately afterwards, Du Zhe deliberately accelerated his shot speed for the next three goals, "Bang! Bang! Bang!" and hit three irons in a row.

Upon seeing this, Pierce and Billups on the sidelines felt hopeful again.

Du Zhe now has little time left, and it is obvious that the Huaguo player's mentality and rhythm are out of order.

But the hope of the two did not last long. Du Zhe deliberately paused for the last bouquet, and then easily hit the ball with a standard shooting posture.

18 points.

After scoring 18 points, although there was still a little time left, Du Zhe had no intention of continuing to shoot.

After strolling to the bottom corner, his game time just ended.

Like Curry, Du Zhe also scored 18 points.

The current situation on the court is that two people have 18 points and two people have 17 points.

What is certain is that Du Zhe and Curry have firmly entered the second round, and whether Pierce and Billups have any hope of advancing depends on the face of Daequan Cook, who appeared last.

After all, although Cook is little-known, he was also the last champion after all, and his strength should not be underestimated.

But what surprised everyone was that Cook's performance today was extremely poor. There was an obvious break in his rhythm at two shooting points in the middle.

In the end, Cook only scored 15 points, tied for last with Channing Frye.

Currently, Curry and Du Zhe both scored 18 points on the field, which has ensured their qualifications to enter the next round.

Both Frye and Cook scored 15 points and have been determined to be eliminated.

Then Pierce and Billups still need a round of playoffs to decide the last place to advance.

The two FMVPs no longer kept it, and each tried their best.

After another round of fierce competition, Pierce defeated Billups 18:16 and took the last train of the final.

After a short break, the finals of the three-point contest continued.

The first to appear is still Paul Pierce.

Pierce, who had just PKed Billups in the playoffs, was gaining momentum at this time, and wanted to take the lead and secure the victory in one fell swoop.

Having completely come out of the psychological shadow brought by Du Zhe just now, he became more and more courageous as he fought. Although his hit rate was mediocre, he was relentless in key shots.

For the most important five balls, Pierce hit all of them without conceding a goal. In the end, he scored 20 points.

Pierce is quite satisfied with this result, because in many seasons, this score is enough to win the championship.

The second to appear is Stephen Curry.

Entering the finals, Curry's performance is still stable, and his score of 17 points has not fluctuated much compared with the first round.

But compared with the explosive Pierce, this mediocre performance is obviously not enough.

Curry, who missed the chance to win the championship, could only pat Du Zhe on the shoulder wordlessly, pinning all his hopes on his teammates.

And Pierce also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, he felt that based on the current form, the probability of himself winning the championship is still quite high.

After all, a rookie is still a rookie, and has never experienced the tempering of a big scene. At critical moments, he can't compare to a veteran with a big heart like him who has experienced many battles.

Du Zhe, who was the last to appear on the stage, will obviously bear more pressure. Pierce felt that this young man from Huaguo should not have such a strong ability to withstand pressure.

After all, the audience's attention is now focused on Du Zhe, and the gazes of the audience alone may be enough for this Huaguo kid to drink a pot.

But Du Zhe has already made up his mind at this time, he not only wants to win, but also wins beautifully and has gimmicks.

Only in this way can he maximize his commercial value.

The year before last, Jason Kapono of the Raptors set the three-point contest scoring record to 25 points.

This year, Du Zhe decided to improve this record by another volume.

Of course, besides simply winning the championship and breaking records, Du Zhe has other arrangements.

However, his primary goal is to win the championship and get rewards. As for the flower work, he has to save it until he is sure to win the championship.

After the first round, Du Zhe has regained his familiar shooting rhythm.

At the first corner shooting point, he was unceremonious and made all five shots to score 6 points.

At the second wing shooting point, Du Zhe ran over with a little haste. Before he could gain a firm footing, he shot a three-pointer. As a result, he was too hasty and hit the iron with the first ball.

Fortunately, he calmed down and hit four goals in succession. After two shooting points, he had scored 11 points.

The five players on the sidelines swallowed at the same time. In the first two points, Du Zhe's shooting rhythm and accuracy were impeccable. Even Pierce, who was a direct competitor, had to bow down.

Du Zhe, who became more and more courageous as he fought, still performed steadily at the top of the arc. At this time, he had entered a state of complete selflessness.

Whether it is the cheering sound of the audience or the shouting of the DJ, it can no longer have any influence on Du Zhe.

Even the time has been forgotten by him. In his eyes, there are only basketballs and hoops left in this huge stadium.

What he has to do is to follow the usual training rhythm and send the basketballs around him into the basket one after another.

12、13、14、15、17!

As in usual training, Du Zhe shot while keeping his score in mind.

After completing the shot at the top of the arc, Du Zhe ran to the next shooting point on the wing without stopping.

After a short pause, after finding the right rhythm, he shot like a cannonball.

18, 18, 19, 20!

Although Du Zhe missed one of the first four goals, he was already tied with Pierce.

It can be said that there is basically no suspense about victory.

But before Du Zhe threw the last bouquet, he made an unbelievable move.

After getting the ball, he slowly closed his eyes and then took the shot confidently.
