Stephen Curry walks to the shooting spot.
The referee gave the order.
Beep.
Game start.
The first goal was scored smoothly, the second goal also fell into the basket, and the third goal was without any suspense... It seems that under the stimulation of Zhao Feiyang, Stephen Curry's state has also improved greatly. Big improvement.
Uh-huh.
At the first point, Stephen Curry threw all the basketballs and scored 6 points.
At the second point, Stephen Curry continued to exert force, and the basketball kept falling into the basket. Until the last flower ball, there was no accident.
Scored another 6 points.
Come to the third point.
This is the shooting point at the top of the arc, and it is also one of the places where Stephen Curry feels the best.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
The basketball keeps hitting accurately.
Stephen Curry once again received perfect marks at this point.
Seeing that the previous performance went so smoothly, the fans on the sidelines became extremely excited. Many people believe that Stephen Curry has a chance to set a record and even surpass Zhao Feiyang.
"Stephen, keep keeping your touch, I believe you won't lose..."
"What a wonderful showdown..."
"This is a close battle that will go down in history no matter what..."
The fans on the sidelines were filled with emotion, while Stephen Curry on the court continued to the next point. This time he made a mistake and deflected the basket when the third ball was thrown, resulting in the ball not being scored.
Fortunately, the other pitches were fairly stable.
The fourth point scored 5 points.
At this time, Stephen Curry's score has accumulated to 23 points.
There is only a 7-point gap from Zhao Feiyang's 30 points.
If he wants to defeat Zhao Feiyang, he must score four goals. Once he scores 8 points, he will not only defeat Zhao Feiyang and become the champion of the three-point shooting competition, but also set a historical record of 31 points in one fell swoop.
This record will probably be difficult for any player to break for a long time.
Uh-huh.
The first ball went in.
Uh-huh.
The second goal was also scored.
Uh-huh.
The third ball was even more stable.
When Stephen Curry raised the fourth bouquet, all the fans present cheered and shouted. Even Zhao Feiyang, who was standing on the sidelines, began to applaud this respectable opponent.
"Come on! Stephen."
boom.
Stephen Curry's fourth shot didn't go in, and the basketball bounced out of the basket. When there was a burst of sighs at the scene, Stephen Curry himself also showed a helpless look.
There is only one flower ball left.
He took it in his hands, glanced at the scoreboard, and threw the ball out as fans watched.
Beep.
The timer expires.
At this moment, everyone is looking forward to the result of this ball.
boom.
A moment later, the basketball hit the right edge of the basket and failed to fall into the basket smoothly.
29 points!
This is Stephen Curry's final score.
If placed at other times, such a score could definitely become the champion of the three-point contest. Unfortunately, this time Stephen Curry faced Zhao Feiyang, who had a better hand, and ultimately lost by only 1 point.
The fans in the audience applauded the two and thanked them for their wonderful performance.
Zhao Feiyang and Stephen Curry also hugged and high-fived each other.
"Man, I wish I had the chance to play with you."
Stephen Curry said.
Zhao Feiyang smiled at him.
"No one knows what will happen in the future...but if that day comes, I will be very interested in becoming your teammate..."
After the conversation between the two ended, Stephen Curry walked off the court.
The guests presenting the awards on the sidelines have already arrived. What’s interesting is that the person awarding the award is none other than Reggie Miller, the “three-point king” of the previous generation of the NBA. He is an epoch-making player and the best player in NBA history. One of the great shooters.
The reason why he was invited to present the award instead of Ray Allen was because the league considered that Ray Allen has not retired yet.
"congratulations."
Reggie Miller handed the trophy to Zhao Feiyang and shook hands with him to express congratulations.
Zhao Feiyang thanked him and took the All-Star Three-Point Shooting Contest championship trophy from his opponent.
The next moment, under the watchful eyes of the live cameras, he held the trophy high and turned around, showing off his honor to all the fans present and to the fans around the world in front of the TV.
The audience burst into applause.
On the other side of the ocean, many fans in China were completely in a rage.
Before the game, they knew that Zhao Feiyang was capable, but they couldn't believe that Zhao Feiyang could become the champion of the three-point shooting competition. When this scene appeared in front of them, they really couldn't contain their excitement and ecstasy.
"Niubi!"
"Before Yao Ming, there was Yi Jianlian, including the Chinese-born Jeremy Lin... none of them have ever won such an honor. This is undoubtedly groundbreaking for yellow-skinned basketball players..."
"It's stable now! If there was still suspense about Zhao Feiyang staying in the NBA before, then there should be no problem this time... Who would be willing to miss a player who has strong shooting ability and is backed by the Chinese market? Where are the players?”
New Orleans Arena.
The three-point shooting contest is over, and now it’s the dunk contest’s turn.
What is particularly interesting is that Damian Lillard is quite active. He can be said to be one of the most tired players in the entire All-Star Game, because he also participated in the slam dunk contest.
However, Damian Lillard is not a dunker after all. Facing other more outstanding players, it is not surprising that he was eliminated.
The subsequent show ended with the fans screaming.
In the end, Terrence Ross, a player from the Toronto Raptors, won the slam dunk contest in one fell swoop.
The second night of All-Star Night officially came to an end.
Only the last day remains, which is the much-anticipated All-Star Game. Compared with these various programs, the All-Star Game is undoubtedly more simple and direct, that is, the best players in the league gather together to play a match against each other.
Before the main game, Zhao Feiyang also needs more time to rest.
After the game, he took Jiang Qiuyue back to the hotel. As soon as the two entered the door, Zhao Feiyang's cell phone rang.
Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Zhao Feiyang hesitantly chose to answer the call, "Hey, who are you looking for?"
"Hello, Feiyang, my name is Xin Guotao, from the Basketball Association..."
The sudden call surprised Zhao Feiyang, but the other party's name was not unfamiliar to him. As a veteran CBA player, he had heard the other party's name too many times, and he also knew that the other party was an important figure in the Chinese Basketball Association.
I'm afraid this phone call has only one purpose.
Sure enough, after a few pleasantries and compliments, the other party began to express his intention, "We know you are a very good player, so we want to invite you to join the national team... There will be a Spanish Men's Basketball World Cup game in August this year. , when the time comes, the national team will need outstanding talents like you..."
