Basketball Myth: Super Guard

New Orleans.

Many NBA stars gather here, as well as countless fans arriving from all directions, making the city a hustle and bustle.

Qin Hao arrived a day earlier, and Jiang Xue, Vivian, Butler, Xiaoka, Xiao Curry, Nei, Lu Wei...Because of the large number of people, they simply chartered the flight. , Direct flight to New Orleans.

Here, Qin Hao played with Curry, Ross, George and others. The friends of the "Rising Stars Training Camp", except Jiang Feng and Wang Lei, everyone else arrived.

Everyone had a meal together and talked about the upcoming All-Star Weekend. They all expressed their interest in the individual events, and they kept teasing Qin Hao and Curry.

The next day, the NBA All-Star Weekend officially began.

The first is the rookie game and the celebrity game.

This time, no one was selected for the Rising Stars training camp, because there were only three players in the first and second grades, Curry, Flathead, and Browning, but none of them were selected.

Curry’s performance this season is actually pretty good, at least relative to a draft pick. It’s a pity that he is on the 76ers and his teammates are too strong. As a little brother, he doesn’t have a chance to get his performance. too much.

This also made everyone happy. They didn't even go to the rookie game and started playing in New Orleans as a team.

Qin Hao did not go with everyone, but went out alone with Jiang Xue.

It's been a long time since the two went out shopping together like ordinary couples.

But now New Orleans are all fans, and Qin Hao is a superstar. They will be the focus wherever they go, and where can they go shopping in general.

In the end, the two of them only went out for a walk, and returned to the hotel within an hour. They both smiled helplessly.

Soon, the All-Star weekend entered the second day.

Qin Hao also started to get busy, because today he is going to participate in the individual events, and he still has to participate in all three individual events, he is the busiest.

......

At this moment, the huge arena was full of people, the auditorium was bustling with people, tens of thousands of fans came to the scene, and the noise was loud.

In recent years, because of Qin Hao, Butler, Rose and others, the rookie game and the race are still very interesting during the NBA All-Star Weekend.

Compared to the rookie games and the main race, the individual events are really lackluster.

The nba official looked anxious, trying to create excitement, such as introducing inside players to the skill challenge, and using two centers to compete with the defenders.

It sounds like a gimmick, and it also highlights the more comprehensive and delicate skills of the NBA's current inside players.

But in the eyes of many fans, this skill challenge has changed.

The guard and the center go together. It is only natural for the guard to win, and it is even more embarrassing for the guard to lose, and it loses fairness.

Another point is that with the popularity of three-pointers, the skill challenge has also become a "small three-point challenge." Often players are stuck on the three-pointer, which means that good players who shoot three-pointers are often able to shoot. Win.

However, the Skills Challenge was originally set up for guards, which tested a series of guard skills such as dribbling, passing, layups, etc., but it does not necessarily mean that a good guard must be accurate in three points.

Such as Rondo.

Therefore, the NBA's official efforts are of no use, and the individual events have become more and more boring. Only the dunk contest is left to watch.

However, in recent years, the dunk contest has not worked anymore.

Howard is a center who can win the championship by wearing a superhero suit. Many fans complain about the dunk contest and turn it into a creative contest. Everyone is comparing creativity, and no one is better than dunking.

"It's been a long time since I saw a single event so lively." The Hornets boss sat on the sidelines, smiling and talking to Adam Silva next to him.

As the host today, the Hornets owner will naturally not be absent, and sit directly with NBA president Adam Silva.

"Yes." Silva smiled and nodded. "Thanks to Qin, if it weren't for Qin's participation, it wouldn't be so lively today."

"Yes." The Hornets boss also nodded.

If it wasn't for Qin Hao to participate in the three individual events, or the three-point showdown with Curry and Clay, and if he dragged Rose, George, and Curry to participate in the dunk contest, this individual event was probably as boring as before. , Where can attract so many fans?

Regardless of whether it is for the NBA or the host Hornets, the more lively and the more fans, the better.

......

"drop......"

After the whistle was honked, the individual event kicked off, the first of which was the skill challenge.

A host came to the court and first introduced the players participating in the Skills Challenge. 4 players from the east and the west participated in the competition.

The Eastern Conference players are Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Bucks, Victor Oladipo of the Magic, Hao Qin of the 76ers, and DeMar DeRozan of the Raptors.

In the West are Trey Burke of the Jazz, Reggie Jackson of the Thunder, Damian Lillard of the Trail Blazers, and Goran Dragic of the Suns.

After the introduction of the personnel, the rules are introduced.

Perhaps the organizing committee was dissatisfied with Qin Hao's addition of drama to himself, so they also wanted to add drama and revised the rules of the individual event.

In the past, players played one by one, starting from the baseline, dribbling the ball through the obstacle, then passing the ball into the frame, layup, by turning back, dribbling the ball through the obstacle, and finally shot three points, until the three-pointer to stop the table, in order to take the least time Win.

This time, the internal PK between the east and the west was carried out first.

The four Eastern players, Qin Hao and Antetokounmpo are a combination, and DeRozan and Oladipo are a combination.

Such as Qin Hao's group.

If Qin Hao comes first, then he needs to take the ball from the bottom corner, then lay up or dunk on his own basket, then dribble the ball over the obstacle, pass the ball into the frame after reaching the frontcourt, and then top the arc of the frontcourt. Shoot a three-pointer at the three-point line, and you can't move on to the next step until you make it.

The next step is to continue to dribble over the obstacles, but this time you will not shoot three pointers after you get to the frontcourt, but pass the ball directly to your partner in this group.

At this time, your partner can layup or dunk the ball, and then repeat your previous actions, which is tantamount to a relay race.

In the middle, the watch will not stop until the completion of this group. With the combined results and the other group PK, the winning side enters the next round and continues to PK with the Western promotion group.

The rules are different, but the essence is the same. It is still a test of skills in dribbling, passing, layups, and shooting.

After the host has finished introducing, the game will officially start.

"Qin." Brother Antetokounmpo pulled Qin Hao, a little nervous, "I am an inside player and your team are dragging you down."

The 19-year-old Antetokounmpo is still a rookie. He hasn't turned into a muscular man. He is tall and thin, with a baby face. At first glance, he looks a bit delicate.

Qin Hao smiled and said, "It's okay, what's wrong with the inside players, you are a skillful inside. Ha ha, relax, wait for you to go first, and I will relay."

Antetokounmpo nodded, grinned, showing a shy smile.
