Super All-around Point Guard

The scene at the Smoothie King Center Arena was filled with excitement and madness for the first time tonight. Everyone originally thought that after the slam dunk contest, the climax was also over. Unexpectedly, Xie Chen scored 23 consecutive points in the three-point contest. ball!

Although shooting is not as enjoyable as dunking, if it is a continuous hit, more than 20 consecutive hits, the kind of surprise and admiration that it continuously brings to people is not comparable to that of a short dunk.

Starting from Xie Chen's fifth consecutive shot, every time Xie Chen continued to make a shot, the crowd screamed, and then this exclamation continued until Xie Chen's last shot, which was the first in the history of the slam dunk contest. It's a unique phenomenon. No one can get such a long period of exclamation and cheers. Before, at most some people made 13 consecutive shots. Xie Chen made 23 consecutive shots, which really scared many people.

In fact, Xie Chen himself was a little scared. He didn't expect that he could score 23 goals in a row. Although he used the system ability, the ability he copied did not have a 100% hit rate, so when he scored a few goals in a row, After that, he immediately switched abilities. For these 23 goals, Xie Chen used the three abilities of Curry, Tracy McGrady, and his own. Unexpectedly, such a combination created a magical effect!

"God is really helping me tonight!" Xie Chen was also excited. He raised his arms excitedly at the scene and accepted the cheers from the audience.

At this time, the results of the preliminaries also came out. Xie Chen ranked first in the preliminaries with 32 points, Lillard ranked second with 27 points, and Curry ranked third with 25 points. The others were far behind the results of the three, so There is no need for extra rounds, and the three directly advance to the finals for a duel.

The two opponents, Lillard and Curry, were also shocked. If Xie Chen feels like this tonight, how can he compete? This is 32 points, and only missed two goals!

"What the heck, after competing in three events in a row, not only was his shooting touch unaffected, but it also allowed him to perform miraculously. Where did Xie borrow this luck from?" Stephen Curry was so envious of Xie Chen. As a Xie Chen's most familiar opponent, Curry naturally knew that Xie Chen's ability to score 23 consecutive goals was definitely due to great luck.

After Xie Chen finished shooting, he high-fived Kyrie Irving, Lowry and others one by one. These guys all looked like they were worshiping him. When he walked up to Lillard, Xie Chen asked: "You seemed to have said let Should I fight for second place?"

Lillard didn't dare to speak. How could he have the courage to admit it? Lillard felt that his score of 27 points was already very high. This was already his extraordinary level of performance. Who would have thought that Xie Chen's score was 6 points more than him!

Lillard looked very embarrassed, but he held it in for a while and finally spoke to Xie Chen: "Your three-point shooting percentage so far this season is 45.6%. Your performance just now is not at your normal level. In the finals, let's talk about it." Maybe you will miss more than ten shots in a row, but I may not be able to beat you!"

"This guy..." Xie Chen didn't expect that Lillard would dare to yell at him. He actually secretly expected him to make more than ten shots in a row? Don’t you know that you are known for your stability? Even if there are no longer such consecutive goals, it is impossible to shoot ugly.

However, if Lillard also performs exceptionally, he may not have a chance to beat Xie Chen.

Xie Chen ignored Lillard, but turned to Curry and asked: "This should be the last time we face off in the three-point contest, right?"

Curry nodded: "Probably, I'm a little tired of it too, and I should leave opportunities to young people in the future."

Xie Chen also agreed with Curry: "In this case, let's make the final a little more difficult, do you dare?"

Curry smiled and said: "When have I not cooperated with the game you want to play? Tell me, what do you want to play? Is it better than sitting and shooting?"

Xie Chen knew that Curry was sitting down and shooting, and he couldn't match it, so he said: "If you want to sit down and shoot, I will never stop you. What I mean is that we move the three outside shooting points farther away." "

Following the direction Xie Chen pointed, Curry glanced at the 45-degree angle on the left and right and the position of the top of the arc, and immediately understood what Xie Chen meant. Curry smiled and said, "I want to compete with me in the three-point contest." ? Haha, it’s interesting. It’s not a bad way to end the last three-point contest. Today, your hand at the three-point line feels hot, but the long-distance three-pointer may not be accurate. If you lose later, I don’t want to regret this decision.”

Just when the two were discussing how to play tricks in the finals, Lillard on the side heard it and immediately stepped forward and interjected: "Hey, are you two ready to change the rules of the game? Listen, the finals are ours. It’s a three-point competition, not just the two of you. If it’s a long-distance three-point competition, I will also participate!”

Xie Chen and Curry looked at each other and smiled. Lillard really wanted to challenge the two of them. Curry said: "If you want, it's up to you."

Seeing the two people's indifferent attitude, Lillard became even more angry. This season, he has made as many long-range three-pointers as Xie Chen and Curry. Why do they despise their own long-range three-point ability so much?

The finals began soon. The first person to play was Stephen Curry, who had the lowest score in the preliminaries among the three. After Curry came on the court, he first moved the cart with basketballs at three points outside a certain distance back.

After seeing it at the scene, I was also surprised.

"What is Stephen Curry doing? Is this making it more difficult to shoot longer three-pointers?"

"Haha, Stephen Curry has always been the best player at long-range three-pointers. It seems that he wants to use this method to challenge Xie and Lillard. Xie's long-range three-pointers are not inferior to him at all, and he will definitely follow suit. Doing that makes it hard to talk about Damian Lillard.”

Commentator Yang Jian was also surprised when he saw it, "Stephen Curry moved the trolley with the basketball back about sixty or seventy centimeters, and moved it to three points, namely the 45-degree angle on the left and right and the top of the arc. The position of the bottom corner has not moved. This is a difficult challenge. I don’t know if Lillard and Xie Chen will do the same next time. I am worried that after the distance is extended, will they not have enough time?"

Zhang Weiping smiled and said: "Don't worry about this. Curry and Xie Chen are both very fast. Generally, if they take 25 shots in 60 seconds, they still have three or four seconds left, but for Lillard it's not like that." Definitely. I think since Curry has done this, Lillard and Xie Chen will definitely follow suit. They are both very ambitious people and do not want to win without force. Maybe this is what the three of them have discussed in private. Okay, it doesn’t even matter who suggested it.”

In any case, Curry's move aroused everyone's strong interest. Sure enough, as long as Xie Chen participates in the game, it will be different!

It was also the first time for Curry to try such a shot. He was afraid that he could not grasp the rhythm well. Although his shot was fast, he was also afraid that there would not be enough time at the end, so he placed the flower ball at the first shooting point.

"Curry shoots from the bottom corner first, and his first shooting point is the flower ball shooting point." Yang Jiandao.

"This is not necessarily a good idea, because Curry always finds the feeling after shooting." Zhang Weiping commented.

Curry quickly started shooting, hitting the first one, missing the second, hitting the third, missing the fourth, and hitting the fifth.

He hit three ball points and scored 6 points.

Immediately afterwards, Curry rushed to the second shooting point. This time the distance was longer than the previous distance. However, for these tall athletes, it is just one extra step. It is really difficult. The most important thing is that the distance is suddenly lengthened. Can they adapt? After shooting short-range three-pointers and then immediately switching to long-range three-pointers, everyone needs to adjust.

Uh-huh!

Curry was indeed Curry. He made his first long three-pointer, and the crowd immediately cheered!

Then, the second one strikes, the third one strikes, the fourth one continues to strike, and the fifth one hits.

Two shooting points and 9 points.

Curry continued to run and reached the top of the arc. At the top of the arc, his touch gradually improved and he hit three consecutive shots, but missed the last two, accumulating 12 points.

At the fourth shooting point, Curry made 2 shots, accumulating 14 points.

Curry's timing was pretty good. When he got to the last shooting point, it was still enough for him to shoot the last five balls. Curry hit four of the last five, including the last flower ball, accumulating 19 points.

"19 points! After increasing the difficulty of the game, it is really not easy to get close to 20 points." Yang Jiandao.

Zhang Weiping also said: "Yes, we can't compare the results of the preliminaries with this result. This has increased the difficulty. The three shooting points are longer than before. It is not easy to get 19 points, even 19 points." It’s very possible to win the championship.”

Immediately afterwards, Lillard also came on the court. He was obviously a little nervous. He had prepared for this three-point contest for many days, but he only prepared shots from the three-point line and did not practice long-range three-pointers.

"Thanks to this guy, why didn't you say it was better than a long three-pointer earlier!" Lillard complained, but both Curry and Xie Chen would compete according to that rule, and he was certainly no exception.

Lillard first shot from the left bottom corner, and he placed the ball point in the last bottom corner.

In the first five shots, he hit three, but unfortunately he missed the ball and scored 3 points.

Next is a 45-degree angle that is slightly further than before.

boom!

boom!

boom!

…

Five consecutive long-range three-pointers, all of them hit the mark!

"Hey, Lillard shouldn't follow suit. If the three-point shooting percentage from long distances is this, it's incomparable." Zhang Weiping became worried for Lillard after seeing it.

"Damn it!" Lillard was very angry. Fortunately, when he reached the top of the arc, his super long three-point ability was reflected.

Three were won, including the last ball, for a total of 6 points.

But when it came to another 45-degree angle, it was inaccurate again, but luckily I hit two, totaling 8 points.

Lillard's score was very low. Not only that, he shot very slowly. By the time he got to the last shooting point, his time was almost running out.

Of his five bouquets, when the last bouquet was about to be released, the time was up. Three of the four bouquets were scored, and the final result was 14 points.

"No!" Lillard was very frustrated. He didn't even finish all the shots within the prescribed time!

"Look, let me tell you, 19 points is already a high score. Lillard, who scored 27 points in the preliminaries, only scored 14 points. Let's see if Xie Chen can score more than Curry." Zhang Weiping said.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Chen made his final appearance, and the audience immediately burst into applause!

"Come on! Try to win all the championships tonight!"

"Tonight belongs to you alone!"

Because Xie Chen contributed so much tonight, all fans support Xie Chen.

Xie Chen felt the cheers from the scene and walked onto the court with a smile on his face. However, he did not go directly to the first shooting spot in the left corner. Instead, he walked to the far away basketball cart at the top of the arc. I saw his hand on the cart, apparently trying to move the basketball cart.

"Could it be that Xie Chen wants to pull the basketball carts in these three positions back to their original positions?" Yang Jian broke into a cold sweat when he saw this scene. He knew that Xie Chen would do anything to win the game. There is no requirement to shoot long-range three-pointers. Xie Chen can completely return the basketball carts in these three positions to their original positions.

Curry and Lillard were also shocked when they saw it. Lillard's eyes widened, "This guy...could this guy want to..."

Xie Chen gently pushed the cart forward, and the cart containing four basketballs and a bouquet moved forward to the three-point line.

The atmosphere at the scene changed immediately.

"Oh, no, Xie is not ready to accept the same challenge of super long three-pointers as them. He wants to return those three positions to their original positions!"

"Shameless! It's so shameless!"

Lillard was so angry that he vomited blood, "Damn it, I was cheated!"

The Internet is also abuzz again.

"666...Lillard and Curry are still too young. This is the benefit of the finale."

“Can there be more trust between people and less routine?”

At the scene, Xie Chen stood there with a smile, looking at the sudden noise and everyone's accusations against him, but he seemed to be enjoying it.

"This feeling is exactly the same as when I first entered the league." Xie Chen recalled that when he first became famous, he always aroused provocation and criticism from fans because of his "unscrupulous tactics". Now, he is more often criticized by others. Worship, I haven't been treated like this for a long time.

"He's just teasing us." Stephen Curry said to Lillard. He is the person who knows Xie Chen best. In the last All-Star three-point showdown between the two, Xie Chen could not lower the difficulty in front of the whole world.

Following Xie Chen's weird smile, those who abused Xie Chen began to stop talking, and instead thought with their hearts, what kind of person is Xie Chen?

"He gave up his giant teammates and went from the first team in the Eastern Conference to the last in the Western Conference! How could he be afraid of facing challenges?!"

Gradually, there were no more doubts at the scene, replaced by continuous applause!

Xie Chen is very pleased that he has done so many things in the league in the past three years and finally let everyone see clearly what kind of person he is.

So Xie Chen stopped joking, stepped forward, grabbed the trolley, and walked back. At this time, the applause became even more enthusiastic.

"It seems that Xie Chen made a joke with everyone. No, he is about to put the trolley back to its original position." Zhang Weiping said with a smile.

However, Yang Jian suddenly said in shock: "Instead of putting it back in its original position, Xie Chen... put the shooting point at the top of the arc to the half-court LOGO position!"
