471. The ceiling of talent (6000 words for monthly ticket)(1/2)

Carter surrendered!

The fans in front of the TV were very surprised. They didn't even try to deduct it and surrendered directly.

The key is to look at Carter's dunk in front, which is not a loss to Zhang Hao's free throw line.

T.N.T Sports commentator Barkley stopped his slam to Zhang Hao and said, "I can imagine how courage it takes to make such a decision. He can go up and complete the dunk. As long as he is willing to dunk, his dunk will be better than any previous dunk dunk.

He must have known that his choice to give up would attract a lot of negative voices, but he still chose to give up. Without a dunk that must win, he could not do his best. He didn't want to break the perfect showdown between him and the gentleman..."

Fans who are watching the live broadcast of T.N.T Sports Station learned from Barkley's commentary that Carter's inner pain was at this time.

At the same time, I was surprised - this fat man knows football quite well!

Carter's side is also ready to be booed.

He didn't care so much about winning or losing, he had a lot of fun tonight.

But there must be regrets, and there are many. He didn't know if he really pushed Zhang Hao to the limit. The other party could still fly, but he had already developed symptoms of fatigue.

However, to his surprise, the fans at the scene gave applause and cheers after being surprised.

"Beautiful job, UFO, you forced the strongest stone Buddha!"

"Thank you Carter, we've seen the most exciting slam dunk contest!"

"Carter thanks for your strongest dunk..."

"Flying man, you are the strongest in my mind..."

The fans at the scene were very manic, but they were not scolding. Carter heard the thanks and encouragement from the fans who were shouting the loudest on the sidelines!

The courage required to choose to give up is more than the courage required to be tough on the ground even though you know you will lose!

Everyone saw Carter's perfect 4 dunks tonight. If any dunk king except Zhang Hao was the one who would be the first to sell the first place in front of Carter.

If Zhang Hao and Carter continue to compete and keep evenly matched, it would be great, but for this dunk competition, it is just icing on the cake, and theoretically speaking, there will inevitably be a decline in level, even if the body can keep up, the creativity and difficulty of dunking will not be able to keep up.

That's it, just right!

Thanks, after encouraging Carter, the fans on the scene began to shout Zhang Hao's various nicknames and English names again.

By this time, the fans' voices had already become hoarse, but the enthusiasm and joy could be deeply felt as long as you hear it!

Zhang Hao also came to the sidelines and brimmed with the excited spectators or hugged the players.

Pierce hugged Carter with one hand and Zhang Hao with the other: "It's you again and you! Will you come again next year?"

Carter shook his head first and said, "Unless a rule is changed, the preliminary and finals will be separated."

Zhang Hao smiled and didn't respond. He knew that if he participated in the future, this guy would definitely participate.

Suddenly, Zhang Hao thought of something and said, "Paul, Vince, when you play against the 76ers in the future, be careful when you take off!"

"Pay attention to your feet? Aix, Duncan and Campbell, their ball quality is very good!" Pierce asked in wonder.

"It's not them. When I was studying the video, I found that three players were injured by the 76ers' substitute small forward in the season."

Carter remembered at this time: "Yes, I remember that guy named Bruce Bowen, right? The last time I dunked and landed, I didn't get off the basket at the first time. Seeing his lower body at my place, I thought it was a coincidence that he wanted to step on me?"

Zhang Hao did not continue to respond. If you remind me of this, you can play a great role, and it will not be better if you say more.

The host has announced that he won the championship. Zhang Hao walked onto the court and took over the trophy of the dunk contest handed over tonight's award presenter Dominic Wilkins.

In the interview after winning the championship, Zhang Hao was rarely low-key and answered the nonsense of the reporters.

At the reminder of the host, Zhang Hao faced the camera and raised the trophy high, and ended the dunk contest!

...

"The Peak of All-Star Weekend Unsurpassed"

After the comprehensive event day, major media gave similar titles.

The three-pointer who was one point short of being afraid of being proud of him scored 29 points in the final of the three-point competition.

He won the greatest championship in the history of the slam dunk contest with an invincible posture.

T.N.T Sports commentator Charles Barkley did not yell at Zhang Hao in the future sports news program of this comprehensive event, but began to make reasonable analysis.

"If a player can win the three-pointer championship, he may not be the best three-pointer in the league, but his basic shooting skills, continuity of his shooting status, and psychological qualities are definitely the top players among basketball players.

If a player can win the slam dunk contest, he will undoubtedly be one of the best physical players in the league."

This time, after Barkley finished analyzing, he was not even as rare as he usually did, and it ended like this.

But that's enough.

Many people just marvel at Zhang Hao's two championships in the three-point competition and the slam dunk competition, creating history. Not to mention winning the three-point competition and the slam dunk competition at the same time, there have never been any players who have won the three-point competition and the slam dunk competition championship before.

Only after Barkley's analysis did people notice how incredible this was!

"Human basketball talent ceiling", the statement that the Lakers bought the news was once again popular!

...

He started to dominate the screen mode again. Compared with the past, Zhang Hao now enjoys this feeling more.

Just like the long-term shock brought by 86 points, Zhang Hao knew that with the arrival of the next three-point competition and the dunk competition, the next one, or even the next one...the influence will truly reach its peak.

Of course, one day, the influence will decline, but the impression will definitely remain in the minds of a generation of fans.

Moreover, because the Internet era has begun, these materials will be passed on for a long time. A new generation of fans will also learn about this All-Star through video materials. Unlike the videos that I wanted to find a game in the past, there are people selling video tapes online. The data from decades ago is difficult to retain until now, but the data from the current ones will remain until decades later.

In addition to these positive comments, Zhang Hao can still see some strange news, but there is something reasonable.

Some media called it - the nightmare of the All-Star Weekend.

Back in 1983, when the NBA All-Stars were not called the weekend, but the All-Star Game, and there was only the All-Star Game on Saturday night.

In 1984, a new slam dunk contest was added, and in 1986, a new three-point contest was added, and the saying of the All-Star Weekend began.

Later, when we joined the rookie competition in 1994, the framework of the All-Star Weekend was truly completed. Later, various competitions were added and cancelled from time to time on Saturday's three-point competition and dunk competition, and gradually improved.

The rookie match, slam dunk contest, three-point match, main match, and four major events were cancelled for the first time after the establishment. It was only in 1997. Because the level of the slam dunk contest was too bad, it would be better to choose a few dunks from the regular season to score, and the slam dunk contest was cancelled.

Now, the three-point competition and the dunk competition have reached the most popular one since its establishment. At this time, some media came out and said that Zhang Hao's performance in the three-point competition and the dunk competition was a devastating blow to these two events... People just watch it as jokes.

...

...

"Aix, you said, if we have five power forwards and five shooting guards on the other side, we want to see the scene."

"Sam, why don't you talk about this with the Lakers head coach?"

"I'd better not..."

At 7:45 pm on February 17, 2000, all the stars from the East and West had already appeared.

This All-Star Game has many topics.

One of the topics that are highly concerned - Zhang Hao, Garnett, Rashid Wallace, and Antonio McDyce, four 95-time power forwards were selected as All-Stars at the same time. Together with Chris Webber and Malone, they formed the most luxurious All-Star Power Forwards team in history.

But in addition to the extreme luxury of the Western Power Forwards, the Eastern scoring outside team is also terrifying.

Iverson, Kobe, Jordan, Alan Houston, Eddie Jones, Reggie Miller, Carter, and McGrady. The Eastern Outside Team consists of eight people, which is even more exaggerated than the Western Power Forward Team.

It’s just that the Eastern Outside Team is not as interesting as the Western Power Forward Team has 4 players of the same class.

Zhang Hao and Kassel chatted on the sidelines, and Garnett ran to the eastern outside team and stood shoulder to shoulder everywhere... But every time he finished chatting with the Eastern outside stars, his expression was not very happy.

On the court, two players were causing cheers from fans on the scene.

O'Neal was quite interested today and went to play with Iverson, and the outside line changed to a different direction.

Iverson always bounces to the right, but O'Neal also pounces to the right every time.

However, O'Neal didn't keep losing. The occasional change of direction and pulling sideways could actually shake Iverson away...

Iverson likes to gambling when defending, and it is not particularly difficult to shake Iverson away, but O'Neal's huge tonnage of 143 kilograms can do such a move, attracting the attention of the fans on the scene, causing restlessness from time to time. Before the game started, the atmosphere was already ignited by O'Neal.

The game is about to begin, and the two teams start amid the crazy cheers of fans on the scene.

The Eastern Army starter: Iverson, Kobe, Carter, Jordan, and Mourning.

The starter of the Western Conference: Kidd, Payton, Zhang Hao, Garnett, O'Neal.

Walking onto the stadium, Iverson looked at the billboard he had been reluctant to watch after entering the field. From the beginning, other All-Stars kept teasing him. He felt angina pectoris, but thought that the monthly endorsement fee would be paid until the end of next season... there was also the possibility of renewal...

As a human being, how can you not even want money for dignity? Besides, this has nothing to do with dignity, so you will feel embarrassed.

The head coach of the Western Conference is Lakers coach Rick Carlisle, Anfini Hardaway withdrew, and Carlisle put Payton in the start.

After the starter of the Western Army, they were looking at the starter of the opponent, and the 23+24 on the opponent was quite unhappy.

But the players of the Eastern Conference also think that their lineup is weird, with 12 players and 8 people able to play shooting guards.

Fortunately, Iverson and McGrady can play point guards, Eddie Jones, Carter, and Jordan are now more inclined toward small forwards. With the four major inside players, Mourning, Duncan, Mutombo, and Antonio Davis, the lineup is actually better than the opponent.

At 8 pm, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game and threw the ball into the air. O'Neal narrowly defeated Mourning to win the jump ball, and the Western Conference attacked first!

Without playing fast, Kidd controlled the ball steadily, and the Eastern Team's lineup retreated too quickly.
To be continued...
