Chapter 209 The birth of the rookie MVP and the three-point king

In the end, the All-Star Rookie Challenge with a considerable bet ended at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

In fact, after the third quarter, the winner is almost over.

110:74, the score gap between Barkley and O'Neal was too big, and the suspense was basically over the next quarter.

Originally, according to the method of selecting players, Barkley and O'Neal rotated one player to choose one player as the player, and the strength of the two teams should not be that much different. However, considering that Barkley had a king cannon and O'Neal had a Griffin who did not work hard, the gap between the two teams widened.

In the third quarter, Wang Dapao scored 48 points, 24 rebounds, 6 blocks and 3 steals, and completely beat the opponent from the inside to the outside.

No matter who comes up, the O'Neal's small forwards cannot effectively limit Wang Dapao. Even if they later used double-teaming and other tactics, the effect is still very average.

After all, the temporary rookie performance team is much different from those of the team members who have been working together for a long time in terms of tacit understanding of defense.

For Wang Dapao, there is no gap in assisting defense in this regard, it is not big at all.

In the fourth quarter, Wang Dapao didn't play much time, but he still made two three-pointers, increasing his personal score to 54 points.

54 points is also the fourth time Wang Dapao scored 50+ this season. Although this is a rookie challenge, Wang Dapao's efficient scoring ability once again illuminated everyone's eyes.

Especially for the vast number of fans of the Celestial Empire, Wang Dapao's performance in the Rookie Challenge undoubtedly created outstanding honors for the Celestial Empire.

In the entire history of the Celestial Empire, Wang Dapao was the only one who can perform on the All-Star Game. Last year's Wang Dapao was a double MVP of the Rookie Challenge and the All-Star Game. This year, Wang Dapao seems to have many awards.

Although the scene where Wang Dapao and Jeremy Lin, which many people are looking forward to, did not have arisen, but Wang Dapao is enough for them to discuss the rookie challenge.

Speaking of Jeremy Lin, we have to mention that although he is the starter of Barkley like Wang Dapao, Wang Dapao is obviously much more valued than Jeremy Lin.

Throughout the game, Jeremy Lin had very little playing time. He basically had no good chance of playing. After the game, he only scored 2 points and 2 assists, making him the worst performer among the Barkley team.

Fortunately, Wang Dapao's fierce performance made many people forget Jeremy Lin's downturn. Perhaps only the audiences who belong to the New York Knicks still remember Jeremy Lin.

Of course, Wang Dapao will definitely not forget his half of his compatriots. Although as a Chinese American, Jeremy Lin is no longer a Celestial being, after all, the blood of Celestial beings flows in his body.

Patting Jeremy Lin on the shoulder. Wang Dapao comforted: "It's okay, this is an All-Star game, not a formal game. In the All-Star field, foreign players will always be excluded. Think about Yao Ming, Nowitzki and others, in the All-Star Game, they often play soy sauce for a few minutes. As long as you continue to play your due strength in the regular season, no one will laugh at you."

With a wry smile, Jeremy Lin looked at Wang Dapao. This guy who was two years older than him entered the league in the same year and also joined as a draft player. In more than a year, Jeremy Lin was confident that he had made some achievements, but compared with Wang Dapao, it still seemed a bit insignificant.

All-Star Rookie Challenge MVP, All-Star Main MVP. Finals MVP, Best Defensive Player, Rebounding King, Scoring King, etc. All kinds of honors have been added to Wang Dapao early. This guy seems to be a data that wins honors.

Just as Wang Dapao said, All-Star Weekend is very unfair to foreign players, but Wang Dapao was able to break this unwritten rule and become the protagonist of All-Star Weekend as a Celestial Person, which just shows Wang Dapao’s awesomeness.

"Thank you for your comfort, I understand." Jeremy Lin nodded and looked at Wang Dapao very seriously and said: "I also wish you a victory in the next event, strive to get the three-point king and the dunk king. If possible, you can win the All-Star MVP."

Jeremy Lin said at the end, and he made a joke on the lively atmosphere. In Jeremy Lin's opinion, a normal person would be a little more modest in his answers and say something like I should try my best.

But Wang Dapao's words made him stunned. "Of course."

The right thing seemed to be what he said only after he had won all the awards.

Looking at Wang Dapao blankly, Jeremy Lin suddenly realized that perhaps this is the key factor for Wang Dapao to succeed. He always maintains a very confident attitude and has a very good encouragement effect on human normal performance.

Jeremy Lin never expected it, or he could not have thought that Wang Dapao was not confident at all, but the same thing, a funny world cannot be easily entered by anyone.

But no matter what, Wang Dapao attaches great importance to the task with punishment conditions and finally completed one-quarter. As long as he completes the three-point competition, the dunk competition, and the All-Star Game, this task will be naturally completed!

Wang Dapao thought about it and it was pretty good, but soon he stopped thinking so.

There are 7 players participating in the three-point shooting competition this year, Ryan Anderson, Joe Johnson, James Jones, Anthony Morrow, Kevin Love, Kevin Durant, and Wang Dapao.

Among these seven players, Wang Dapao, Durant, Love and Johnson are the most famous, and the favorite among the four players is the Thunder star Durant.

Although Wang Dapao's three-point shooting percentage this season is very high, much higher than Durant, after all, Wang Dapao's rise was too late, and there is still a little gap compared to Durant's three-point shooting experience for many years.

After Durant, the biggest hope of winning the championship is Wang Dapao, after all, compared with Wang Dapao, Love and Johnson are much weaker in terms of three-point shots and hit percentage.

Wang Dapao always thought that he should not have a big problem in winning the three-point competition, but he did not expect that he would encounter such a big trouble from the beginning.

The rules of the three-point competition are very simple. The winner is the winner who gets the most points in one minute. There are 5 shooting points in the entire game: there are two symmetrical feet, two symmetrical angles of 45 degrees, and the other is at the top of the arc. There are 5 balls per shooting point. The first 4 ordinary balls are one point, and the last one spends 2 points. The full score is 30 points, which means that if you shoot all 25 balls in, you will have 30 points.

Under normal circumstances, the game is divided into two rounds. Each player has a chance at each round. The top three in the first round enter the finals. The second round is the same as the first round. If there is a similar score in the final, the game will be added until the ranking is obtained.

Originally, Wang Dapao was the last player to play in the first round, so he had enough leisure to watch where other players were shooting, but after three or four players finished shooting, Wang Dapao's pressure came.

There is no other reason. These guys voted too high!

Love scored 24 points, Durant scored 22 points, Jones scored 21 points, Johnson scored 19 points, and the others were slightly lower, but not much lower.

If you want to enter the second round, Wang Dapao must also be ranked in the top three, and the lowest scorer among the top three on the field is 21 points. In other words, Wang Dapao's score must exceed 21 points before he can enter the second round. Only by entering the second round can he be able to get the three-point king.

"Wang Dapao is under great pressure!" Looking at the scene in front of him, Barkley couldn't help but sigh.

As yesterday's rookie challenge ended, Barkley and O'Neal also officially returned to their jobs, and the two began to explain the All-Star event with Smith.

"I think it's okay, after all, that's Wang Da Cannon." O'Neal said with a hint of dissatisfaction. "That guy who can control the outcome of a game." Barkley laughed loudly when he heard O'Neal's resentment voice. He knew that O'Neal was feeling resentful about his loss. After all, if it weren't for his own side, there would be no possibility of winning or losing, so there would be no suspense. O'Neal wouldn't have lost so badly.

"What? Are you not convinced? That bottle of classic whiskey tastes really good. I believe Smith didn't drink enough last night, right?" Barkley said gloatingly.

Just last night, a group of people ran to O'Neal's house, and let O'Neal fulfill his promise without any integrity. Then, with O'Neal's expression of pain, he drank all his hidden wine in Kaifeng.

"It's okay," Smith said with a smile: "But if there is such a good thing, don't forget to call me..."

"Damn you two beasts!" O'Neal gritted his teeth, but there was no way. Who made him lose the bet?

"If you don't accept it, why don't we make another bet." Seeing this, Barkley smiled and said, "What about bets based on King Dapao?"

Hearing this, O'Neal immediately shook his head like a rattle, "Damn, stop joking, stop telling me anything about gambling! I've quit gambling! Especially about Wang Dapao's gambling!"

Facts have proved that O'Neal's choice was very correct. Wang Dapao could not be used to bet at all. He seemed to be born to defeat the gamblers. Barkley had suffered losses in this regard at the beginning, and now An occasionally understands this.

Wang Dapao, the last of all the participating players, stood at the first point of the three-point line, took a deep breath, and then the countdown began.

Wang Dapao immediately grabbed the basketball set up beside him and threw it towards the basket.

"Frame!" The first ball made Wang Dapao's heart suddenly thrust and failed to hit. Despite this, Wang Dapao did not slow down the movement, after all, the game was limited by time.

The second ball took action again without hesitation, but fortunately this time it hit. "Swish!" The crisp sound of the swishing net made Wang Dapao feel much more at ease.

At the next first point, Wang Dapao hit all the balls, including the last minute flower balls, and scored a total of 5 points. Then, Wang Dapao also hit 4 of the second point, and scored 4 points. The last flower ball worth two points was lost.

The situation next was like a roller coaster, ups and downs. When Wang Dapao held the last flower ball in his hand, everyone's hearts were mentioned together, because at this time, Wang Dapao had already scored 20 points, and only the last flower ball worth two points was left without taking action.

If this ball is shot, Wang Dapao will score 22 points, with the same score as Durant, and will eliminate Jones, who is ranked third, and successfully advance to the second round.

On the contrary, if Wang Dapao missed the ball, then the three-point competition would have nothing to do with him.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Dapao glanced at the timer. There was not much time left, and there was not much time left for Wang Dapao to prepare. As usual, he raised his hand, took off and shot.

"Swish!" The basketball was inserted into the net as usual, and Wang Dapao breathed a little relieved.

22 points, successfully advanced to the second round!

After throwing this ball, Wang Dapao realized that his back was already full of sweat.

Think about it carefully, when I was shooting just now, I didn’t seem to think about what the consequences would be if I missed the shot.

To be honest, Wang Dapao is quite good.

After a while of adjustment, the second round of the game also began.

Wang Dapao originally thought the second round would be more exciting, but he didn't expect that the second round would seem a bit surprisingly simpler than the extremely nervous first round.

Rather than being simple, it seems like Durant and Love both waterproof him.

In the second round, Durant scored 16 points and Love scored 17 points. Compared to the efficiency of the first quarter, such scores seemed too miserable, as if they were making Wang Dapao.

The last Wang Dapao who came on the field just threw 20 points casually and won the final victory.

In this way, Wang Dapao didn't feel anything and was not prepared enough. A three-point king hat was put on his head.

"Damn! That's true!" Seeing this bloody scene, O'Neal was speechless. He was extremely glad at this moment. Fortunately, he was not very smart and continued to bet with Barkley. Otherwise, according to this situation, it would be impossible for him to lose his underwear. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
