Chapter 311: Slam Dunk Contest(2/2)
Not only him, but also Earl Watson appeared together. Yes, Earl Watson was passing the ball for Wang Hao.
As for why I didn't find Gary Payton, it was mainly because the guy had something to do at home a few days ago and didn't have time to practice.
That's right, Wang Hao's first dunk was actually an alley-oop dunk imitating Zach LaVine's free throw line jump.
This action is a great test of the passer's ability.
When Gary Payton didn't have time to practice, Wang Hao had to find Earl Watson, and his passing was also very good.
After retreating to halftime, Wang Hao looked at Earl Watson until he signaled he was ready.
The dunk officially begins.
Wang Hao began to accelerate, and at the same time he was constantly adjusting his pace. Then as he approached the three-point line, his speed accelerated again.
At this time, Earl Watson had also thrown the ball into the middle of the air.
The sole of his left foot was firmly planted on the free throw line. At the same time, Wang Hao suddenly jumped high.
Running at high speed, after he jumped up, he quickly rushed towards the basket.
At this time, the basketball just flew into the air and fell into Wang Hao's hands very appropriately.
After slightly stabilizing the basketball with both hands, grab the basketball with your right hand, stretch your body with all your strength, and hit the basketball.
To be honest, Wang Hao was already falling rapidly at this time. After all, not everyone is called Jordan.
However, at this time, Wang Hao's advantages in height and wingspan became apparent.
"basket!"
Although he was a little reluctant, Wang Hao still hit the ball towards the basket and his fingers touched the rim.
"boom!"
The moment the basketball hit the basket, it suddenly became lively and the roar was endless.
"Oh my god, how is this possible?"
"What did I see? An alley-oop from the free throw line!"
"Is Wang paying tribute to Julius? He has surpassed Julius's dunk."
…
The current host is already a little incoherent when he doesn't say anything, and he doesn't know what to say?
Not only the host, but also the general scene.
The fans at the scene exclaimed loudly, and the players around the stadium were also shocked.
O'Neal immediately rushed up with a handheld DV and started filming Wang Hao wildly.
And at the judges' table, Dr. J, who was originally very calm, stood up from the judges' table and applauded.
As for the other four judges, they couldn't wait to take out their scoreboards and gave 10 points one after another.
After Wang Hao came off the court, he did not forget to shake hands with his three competitors.
However, looking at the dejected looks on each of the three people's faces, some people thought that the game was over.
Sure enough, after a short period of scoring, the results were given on the spot. Wang Hao scored 50 points for his first dunk.
Now, the pressure is on the remaining three participating players.
The second player to appear was Desmond Mason, who missed his first dunk.
I don’t know if it’s because of too much pressure.
A big windmill dunk on the face frame. To be honest, it was not too difficult, but it actually missed.
Today's dunk contest rules do not include the idea of trying a second time. Once you dunk, it's gone.
However, there is a guaranteed score, which is 30 points.
No way, this action is not very difficult, and countless people have done it in the dunk contest, so there must be no surprises.
What's even more important is that with such a simple action, it was deducted.
Jason Richardson, who played next, just won the Rookie Challenge MVP yesterday.
His mentality was actually very good. He made a 360-degree pull-bar dunk, and he dunked it right in the first time.
This dunk is somewhat similar to Carter's 360-degree windmill dunk in the 2000 Dunk Contest.
Of course, there are some differences. Carter's is a 360-degree turn to pick up the windmill, while Richardson has a pull rod.
In the end, the judges gave 2 10 points and 3 9 points, which is a total score of 47 points.
The last one to appear was naturally Francis, this guy is very keen on the dunk contest.
But from beginning to end, he failed to win the slam dunk contest.
Francis participated in the dunk contest and brought a teammate to help, none other than his good friend Mobley.
However, Mobley was obviously not that suitable for passing the ball. Francis felt it was inappropriate to pass the ball twice in a row and did not dunk.
You know, according to today's rules, there is no chance for a second dunk, and now there are boos.
Fortunately, Francis finally dunked in the third time.
In the pull-bar dunk after the alley-oop, Francis fully demonstrated his jumping and staying in the air.
However, the final score was 42 points.
At the end of the first round, Wang Hao and Jason Richardson were temporarily in the lead and had a chance to enter the finals.
Wang Hao was still the first to appear, but he was not alone.
In addition to Wang Hao, there was also a bear entering the scene. Of course, it couldn't be a real bear.
This is the Sonics mascot Scooby Bear.
Why not move on to Earl Watson?
Because Wang Hao's dunk this time was a leaping dunk, and Earl Watson was too short, so his leaping was not enjoyable to watch.
But if it was a big man, Wang Hao was worried that he wouldn't be able to fly over, so he simply changed the team's mascot.
There is nothing special about leaping and dunking, and Wang Hao would not make this choice.
According to Wang Hao's request, Scoop Bear stood under the backboard on the right side of the basket, with a slight distance, and then raised the ball above his head.
Wang Hao suddenly accelerated from outside the three-point line, came behind Shi Kaoxiong, and jumped high again.
He caught the basketball above Shi Kao Xiong's head, and then, Wang Hao spread his legs and flew over his head.
It wasn't over yet. Wang Hao, who was holding the ball with both hands, didn't dunk directly. Instead, he smashed the ball against the backboard first, and then dunked behind his back!
In fact, this is not Wang Hao’s original work.
In various short videos in the future, there will actually be many amateur players performing dunks.
They can do these actions, even the more difficult ones.
And this thing, in fact, only an NBA player did it in the slam dunk contest 21 years later.
Now, Wang Hao has made this dunk action for the first time, so he is naturally original.
