835. Shooting Star - King of the Center Circle! (Please vote for me)

The fans at the scene were very sorry to see the Trail Blazers take 40 seconds to complete the first five shots.

As a rare entertainment event held for four consecutive years, the Shooting Star Challenge is very popular among fans.

Most fans know it, but for those who don’t know, there are people nearby who know that to advance to the finals, generally speaking, the game must last within 50 seconds.

Shooting in the center circle is often the most time-consuming.

So, after seeing how long it took the Trail Blazers to score five three-pointers, fans felt like it was over.

Not to mention the opponents and fans, Huo Tu and Yanel Booth both felt that there was no chance, so they shot from the 45-degree angle on the right side and the right bottom corner so casually and easily.

Unexpectedly, Liu Xiu scored one goal from the middle circle!

Huo Tu and Yanel Booth excitedly rushed to the center circle and high-fived Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu didn't expect to be able to hit the target with one hit. Even if he used the buff of 'Prayer in the Middle Circle', he didn't have any expectations. He was thinking about replacing two more powerful teammates next year... but he got in!

Excited as he was, Liu Xiu's expression remained calm, as if "this is not luck, this is strength."

Kobe secretly cursed, "It's a pretense," and then took Cooper and Leslie into the game.

The Lakers performed very well in their first five shots, taking only 22 seconds in total, almost half as long as the Trail Blazers.

However, when shooting from the center circle, Kobe hit 7 irons in a row and only scored the 8th goal. The total time was 40.3 seconds.

Liu Xiu was not surprised by Kobe Bryant's outstanding performance.

Although it took some time for Kobe to hit 7 irons in a row, the Lakers did a pretty good job surrounding Kobe with the cooperation of the previous 5 three-pointers. It can be seen that they spent a lot of time and energy practicing... Liu Xiu sympathizes.

Cooper and Leslie.

Also, even though Kobe shot 7 irons in a row, he didn’t waver at all every time he shot. The next time he shot, he was still stable and didn’t break anything...

Liu Xiu can easily analyze the performance of the Lakers because the Trail Blazers also had a good score, 44 seconds.

The mentality of the Pistons and Spurs is about to collapse!

The Trail Blazers' mid-circle shooting performance that determines the game is incredible. The Lakers' regular shooting is as stable as a dog. Yao Ming + Duncan: How the hell am I going to play?

Yao Ming was very interested at first, but now, he is very casual about it.

Kash and Ranbir also felt that there was no hope...

At 1 minute and 06 seconds, the Pistons performed mediocrely and were eliminated in the first round.

The Spurs players also feel that there is no hope, but wherever Duncan is, that team has a quality called 'stability'.

It took the Spurs 32 seconds to make the regular five three-pointers, which made Liu Xiu nervous.

Maybe they will really be challenged by the Spurs! The Spurs set a record in the Shooting Star Competition last year, killing all their opponents in 25.1 seconds, relying on Parker's running shot from the center circle to throw the ball into the basket, setting a new record

Set a Suns record of 28 seconds to complete the game.

But Gervin's shot from the center circle...Duncan's fists clenched.

It's better to go to the stone Buddha himself!

Gervin shot the last ball 11 times and took 51 seconds to finally score it.

In a total of 83 seconds, the defending champion Spurs were defeated.

The Lakers and Trail Blazers advance to the finals!

…

The person who was in the way finally stepped aside. Looking at Liu Xiu and his team who walked onto the court again, Kobe couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.

The 7 consecutive irons just now were completely unimportant to him. Shooting in the middle circle was very affected by luck. He did not place his hope on this shot. He would never bet on illusory luck. He did it on the previous 5 shots.

Absolutely well prepared.

Looking at the Trail Blazers, who relied on luck to reach the finals, he felt that victory was already in his hands!

Soon, the finals began.

With the experience of the preliminaries and Warden's magical final shot, Huo Tu and Yanel Booth's confidence increased greatly.

Mainly because of Yarnell Booth. Huo Tu was actually very stable in both shots, but he was a little fussy picking up the ball and serving. Yarnell Booth's first shot in the preliminaries was outrageous. He was impatient and didn't dare to go too fast.

It affected Liu Xiu's top arc shot from behind.

This time, under the guidance of Liu Xiu, the two hit the first and second goals directly!

The two teammates picked up the rhythm. Liu Xiu ran to the top arc to receive the ball, turned around and came half a step to the right side of the top arc, took off, and shot a three-pointer...hit!

On the 4th ball, Yarnell Booth took a shot, but it was no big problem and he hit the second ball steadily.

On the sidelines, Kobe, who was calm in front of him, became a little nervous when he saw Liu Xiu making a direct shot from the top of the arc.

When he saw Yarnell Booth hit the iron once, Kobe was slightly relieved, but he didn't expect that this big girl Yarnell Booth made the second shot!

Watching Liu Xiu pick up the ball under the basket and pass it to the right corner, Yanel Booth ran into the basket, Huo Tu caught the ball in the right corner and shot a three-pointer... Such smooth cooperation made Kobe Bryant's heart beat.

Woke up……

Huo Tu made two attempts, but this time he caught and shot, and Yanel Booth's pick-up and serve were all very smooth. Huo Tu made his third shot and scored!

Kobe stood up straight when he saw this scene.

17.8 seconds!

The Trail Blazers' first five goals only took a total of 17.3 seconds!

His running position to pick up the ball and serve are smooth, and his hitting performance of 5 of 8 shots is also excellent!

After Huo Tu hit a three-pointer, the ball only bounced once it hit the ground before being picked up by Yarnell Booth, who turned around and smoothly threw the ball toward the center circle.

When Liu Xiu caught the ball, Kobe not only stood up straight, but also stretched his neck to look at Liu Xiu.

He bet his hopes on the Trail Blazers' last shot.

He didn't even have confidence that the Lakers could achieve the Trail Blazers' regular performance of five three-pointers!

This performance is perfect!

He can only place his hope on this illusory luck! He hopes that his good luck will prevent the opponent from entering.

Then, he saw Liu Xiu catch the ball, turn around and take a shot, then closed his eyes...

Then, amid the fanatical cheers and screams of the fans at the scene, Kobe saw the ball thrown by Liu Xiu plunge into the basket...

Another hit!

Kobe was stunned for a moment and suddenly woke up - this guy closed his eyes after throwing the ball, not because he was desperate, but because he was confident that the ball would be scored!

The referee went to the technical desk to watch the replay and confirmed the time.

At 19.9 seconds, the Trail Blazers broke the Spurs' record of 25.1 seconds in last year's finals, raising the fastest record in a single round of the Shooting Star Challenge to less than 20 seconds!

…

The mentality is explosive, which is what Kobe is talking about now.

Originally, under his high-pressure rule, the Lakers' "shooting star temporary team" was more stable than the Spurs.

But now, this point of him collapsed.

Seeing the birth of the record of 19.9 seconds with his own eyes, he became anxious, and so did his teammates. He shot very hard, as if he could shoot faster and more accurately as long as he used force. Then, he just made the first two balls.

20 seconds have passed.

The Lakers players were much calmer after losing the championship. They were very competitive and shot all the shots behind them. Kobe, who made several irons on the 45-degree three-pointer from the left, made two shots from the center circle and scored.

.

At this time, Kobe regretted that it was too late. He could only watch Liu Xiu, Huo Tu, and Yanel Booth lift the championship trophy.

But there was another onlooker with an explosive mentality...

Long-necked dragon: The warden learned this from me? It seems...but he learned too quickly! And he is even more powerful than my teacher!
