Chapter 1188 Tang Tian Provokes Curry
This year, 10 people participated. The competition format is the same as in the past, with preliminaries and finals. The top three players in the preliminaries advance to the finals.
The scene is still being prepared, and the team members are also doing final warm-up activities on the sidelines.
Several people gathered around Tang Tian.
Walker is Tang Tian's brother, Green is a teammate, Harris is a former Pelicans player, and Curry is a friend.
This year's three-point shooting competition has a large number of people. The game hasn't started yet, but the field is already very lively.
"Stephen, give me a challenge."
The game was about to start, and Tang Tian "provoked" Curry.
As the scoring record holder in the three-point contest before the reform, Tang Tian has every right to say this.
And what he wants to do, only Curry can satisfy him.
Curry laughed loudly after hearing this and pointed at Tang Tian with a proud look.
But it was obvious that he listened to Tang Tian's words.
The game will start soon.
First up was Joe Harris.
As a veteran of the Pelicans, Harris had little chance with the Pelicans, but he has played better year after year after leaving the Pelicans.
Now he is the starting shooting guard of the Nets, and his three-point shooting percentage ranks first in the league so far this season.
Amid the fans' expectations, Harris started his shooting.
This year's three-point contest has attracted much attention. He was the first to appear and his performance was also crucial.
Perhaps for this reason, he hit the first two balls one after another.
This also caused a stir in the scene.
It is the first time for a young player to participate in the competition and the first one to appear, so it is inevitable to feel pressure.
But soon, Harris got into the groove and surprised everyone.
He hit all three goals from the first point, and all five from the second point!
The excitement at the scene has turned into cheers.
At the third point, Harris also hit the first 4 balls!
He scored 12 goals in a row!
He didn't miss until the 13th.
Sure enough, he is the man who ranks first in the league in three-point shooting percentage!
Although his performance in the fourth point was average, in the last ball point, he scored all 5 goals!
His final score was fixed at 27 points!
A score that is enough to win the championship!
The cheers and whistles couldn't stop it. Harris was off to a great start in this year's three-point contest.
The fans were enthusiastic, but Harris' performance put a lot of psychological pressure on the players who played later.
Nowitzki, Seth Curry, and Russell, who appeared immediately, all performed relatively sluggishly, none scoring more than 20 points.
After Russell, Walker played at home.
The cheers at the scene also reached a peak.
Walker withstood the pressure and finally scored 20 points.
This score ranks second only behind Harris's 27 points.
In the 10-person competition, all 5 players have finished competing. There is still a chance of advancing to the finals with this ranking.
Lillard came on the scene right after Walker, and he only scored 16 points in the end.
There was a burst of cheers.
Fans expect outstanding performance from the players, and also hope that Walker can advance to the finals.
Now there are only 4 people left, and Walker's hope of advancement is even greater.
The remaining four people, Green, Hield, Curry, and Tang Tian, Green appeared immediately.
Green has recovered with the Pelicans this season and now ranks second in the league in field goal percentage behind Harris.
His performance is also quite stable, although he does not have the performance of hitting more than ten goals in a row like Harris did before.
But in the end his score was fixed at 23 points, a pretty outstanding score.
He also edged out Walker for second place.
Curry and Tang Tian haven't played yet, so Walker is a bit dangerous.
This scene also made the fans in front of the TV slightly excited.
After the number of people in the three-point contest increased, the intensity of the competition also increased.
With the last three people left, Hilder is under unprecedented pressure.
The next two defending champions are there, and if he scores less than 20 points, he will be eliminated.
In adversity, Hield showed the qualities of a top shooter.
He made consecutive shots, including four of the five ball shots at the last point, and finally scored a high score of 26 points!
He surpassed both Walker and Green in one go!
With this score, qualifying for the finals is almost certain.
Of course, nothing is absolute. Curry and Tang Tian have not yet voted, and except for Harris, everyone else is unstable.
With 23 points or even 26 points, you have to consider whether you will be eliminated. This three-point shooting contest is really unique.
Curry appeared second to last.
Although he participated in the three-point contest more than once and won more than once, the situation in front of him still made him feel a lot of pressure.
He took a deep breath before taking the field.
At the first point, he only made 3 goals.
Although this pressure is invisible, it is completely felt.
But Curry is Curry after all. Starting from the second point, he got better and scored 10 goals in a row.
And except for the first point, he only missed one ordinary ball in the next three points!
After shooting four points, his score has reached 19 points!
When there was still the last flower ball, the fans at the scene were already shouting along with Curry's every shot.
Every time a goal was scored, there was an uproar.
Curry threw in all the last five flowers!
29 points!
Curry sets a new three-point contest record!
The scene was filled with excitement.
Ginger is still old and spicy, and Curry is still called Steph!
Everyone else on the sidelines also stood up to congratulate Curry.
Including Green, who was just eliminated.
"now you."
Curry was also a little excited. He changed his elementary school student's character and shouted at Tang Tian.
Tang Tian shrugged.
When Tang Tian appeared on the stage at the last stage of the preliminaries, the cheers could no longer be stopped.
Before the three-point shooting competition was reformed, Tang Tiandu scored 27 points out of 30 points.
Now that the full score for reform has reached 34 points, they really look forward to Tang Tian's improvement in this record.
At this time, Hilde's expression was a little nervous.
He scored 26 points, which is already an extraordinary performance. If he is eliminated, it will be really shocking.
After the referee's whistle sounded, Tang Tian started his shooting.
At the first point, all five goals were scored.
At the second point, all five goals were scored.
The excitement at the scene could no longer be stopped.
This isn't a competition, it's clearly just fun!
Until the flower ball at the third point, Tang Tiancai missed one.
Tang Tian already has the skill package of open three-pointers, and with his years of training, he also has other shooting package bonuses.
Effortless is really the word that best suits him.
In the end, he only missed two flower balls, and his score was finally settled at 30 points.
Curry had just set a new three-point contest record. Within two minutes of kicking him, Tang Tian snatched him away!
And after Tang Tian broke the record, he did a Curry-style shrug and head shake towards Curry.
provocative! A naked provocation!
