Chapter 264 Winning the Three-Point Ball Championship Again (3 More)
Chapter 264
When he won the three-point contest last year, Qin Yang confessed in front of the media that he wanted to be the three-point champion, and then he would not participate in the three-point contest.
It's just that at that time, many media thought that Qin Yang was a clown who was lucky enough to win a three-point shooting contest, so they got carried away.
At that time, there were a lot of media reports satirizing Qin Yang.
But now that Qin Yang said this again, all the media think that Qin Yang has a high possibility of completing it. Even the media who are not optimistic about Qin Yang have to admit that Qin Yang's three-point shooting is very strong, but the three-point shooting contest is more about the status than the overall three-point shooting ability.
In addition to defending champion Qin Yang, the other five are: Paul Pierce (Boston Celtics), Chauncey Billups (Denver Nuggets), Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors), Channing Frye (Phoenix Suns) and Danilo Gallinari (New York Knicks).
Pierce was the first to play and only scored 1 point at the first point. However, he made better shots after that, but missed the last point and finally scored 17 points.
Billups played second and made all four shots at the first point, but unfortunately missed the color ball.At the last point, Billups missed the first two shots, and then made consecutive shots, but missed the last colored ball again, and finally scored 16 points.
Curry was the third to play, and the first point also made all the first four shots, but missed the color ball.The second point is done in the same way, again only the last colored ball is missed.Although only one color ball was scored in the game, they still scored 18 points and temporarily ranked first.
The fourth player to play was Gallinelli. His first few shots didn't feel good, but fortunately, the colored balls succeeded in a row.However, starting from the third point, consecutive shots were missed.It was only at the last point that Gallinelli found the feeling, made consecutive shots, and finally scored 15 points.
Center Frye played in the fifth game and scored 5 points in the first point, but after that, many goals were invalidated because of stepping on the line, and finally scored 15 points.
Qin Yang was the last to play, and his shots at the first and last points were relatively poor, and he only scored 17 points in the end.
In the end, Qin Yang, Pierce and Curry advanced to the finals of the three-point contest.
Pierce, as the league's superstar, was the first to play.
Although the shooting percentage was not outstanding, all five colored balls were shot, and finally scored 20 points.This score has already put a lot of pressure on the players behind.
Qin Yang came out second. After the basketball was placed on the shelf, Qin Yang adjusted his state.
For the first ball, Qin Yang took the ball and stepped on his feet for a while before shooting, and then he didn't watch the ball, and continued to pick up the second ball and shoot, and by analogy, Qin Yang didn't even look at whether the basketball scored or not, he just picked up the ball and shot.
As a result, the first ball hit the iron, and the rest of the basketballs swished into the frame.
In the second position, Qin Yang hit all of them.
Immediately after the third position, Qin Yang missed a bouquet.
But as the tempo got better and better, and all the rest of the basketballs were hit, Qin Yang got a high score of 27 points, which was definitely the winning score in the previous three-point shooting competition.
After Qin Yang finished shooting, he opened his arms, and there were cheers on the scene.
The last one to play was Curry, who scored the highest in the preliminaries.This season, as a rookie, Curry performed very well, averaging stats and shooting percentages.
It can be said that if Tyreke Evans and Brandon Jennings were not too abnormal in their rookie seasons, Stephen Curry would be the best rookie.
Of course, no one knows what Curry will achieve in the future.
Only when Qin Yang was learning three-pointers on the learning machine, did he see Curry at his peak a few years later. At that time, Curry's three-pointer ability was close to 140.
It is even taller than the current Qin Yang.
Curry played, although the second goal was not to touch, but the rest were all scored, the first two points scored 9 points, but unfortunately the third point did not perform well, and finally only scored 17 points.
Obviously, in the finals, Curry's mentality had not been adjusted, and he did not perform well in the usual games.
Once again won the championship of the three-point shooting contest, Qin Yang was very domineering:
"This is a wonderful experience for me. I feel very happy to win the three-point shooting championship again, but I have to tell everyone that I will come again next year. After winning three three-point shooting championships, I will stop participating and give others a chance. Otherwise, in my career, other people will win the three-point shooting championship, which is not good."
When other people say these words, they don't know what they will be sprayed with.
But when Qin Yang said it, it felt a little arrogant, and his words were not modest enough, but no one felt that Qin Yang was bragging. If Qin Yang was in good condition every year and won the three-point shooting contest, Qin Yang might win seventy or eighty.
Curry, who lost in the final, said with a smile:
"Bruce should not continue to participate in the three-point shooting contest, otherwise how other players will win the championship. This makes us players very sad."
This kind of praising joke is very popular.
After the game, the news media mostly used Curry's joke as the headline. It was sensational and attracted traffic, but there was nothing wrong with it.From this, we can see how high Curry's emotional intelligence is.
Leaving other things aside, most of the league's superstars can't match Curry's emotional intelligence and speaking skills.
The three-point contest is over, and Qin Yang can finally rest.
The next day, Qin Yang participated in the All-Star Game.
In this All-Star Game, Qin Yanglai's attitude was very clear, just to gain some fame, and he didn't think about competing for the MVP of the All-Star Game at all.
Before the game, James, the superstar in the East, whispered to Wade and Bosh. It seemed that one of the three wanted to compete for the MVP.
In addition to the lineup of the All-Star Game, the coaches of the Eastern and Western All-Stars this time are also very interesting.
In the east, Magic coach Van Gundy, and in the west, Nuggets coach Karl.
At the beginning of the game, the Western team took the lead. Stoudemire and Nash scored 6 points in a row. James used 3-pointers to stabilize the situation for the Eastern team.
With more than 7 minutes left in the first quarter, Howarda, who wanted to inherit the funny style of "Big Shark", hit a 3-pointer from the outside. After the [-]-pointer was hit, the audience cheered.
Qin Yang frantically shook the towel off the court and succeeded in stealing the spotlight.
Howard ran to the sidelines and gave Qin Yang high fives to celebrate.
东部队连得8分以17比16反超1分。紧接着的双方交替得分，他们也战成过23平、25平，东部替补拉简-隆多连得4分，三分球大赛视力的保罗-皮尔斯也命中一个3分球，这让东部队以37比34领先结束第一节。
In this section, Qin Yang didn't appear on the stage, but he pretended to be a spectator off the stage and performed very well.
However, Qin Yang can also see many things from this kind of game, for example, the scores of the two sides have increased very regularly, and neither team has gained an absolute advantage.
On the one hand, the team's defense is poor, and the players' offense is strong. On the other hand, there are probably people on both teams who want to win the MVP, and neither of them wants to fall behind early.
At the 4th minute of the second quarter, Qin Yang finally played.
For the first ball, Qin Yang stopped advancing after he reached the midfield. Billups, who was in charge of defending Qin Yang, stood outside the three-point line, three steps away from Qin Yang.
At the distance of the midfield, Qin Yang adjusted his posture and jumped directly for a three-pointer.
Under everyone's surprised eyes, the basketball swished into the net.
Super long-range three-pointer!
