The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 940 dead
,!
The 1993 All-Star Weekend was held in Salt Lake City.
It may be the biggest sporting event in Salt Lake City history.
Nearly 1,000 media people from all over the world flocked to the event.
As hosts, Karl Malone and Mark Price carry the hopes of professional basketball in Utah on their shoulders.
Let the Western Stars win and Malone wins the amvp with Price, that's the best scenario.
Includes the Slam Dunk Contest, the 3-Point Contest and the Legends Contest featuring many of the stars of yesteryear, as well as off-court events such as the first-ever Celebrity Singing at the Salt Palace.
At the same time, this year is also the year when the league announced a renewal.
Among the superstars active in the last 10 years, only Thomas, Sampson and Bird were selected.
The rest, such as Wilson, Ewing, Kemp, Stockton, Manning, David Robinson, Pippen, Big Mom Johnson, Dumas, Kevin Johnson, etc., are either Mesozoic or Newborn generation.
What's more, a player like O'Neal, who is regarded as the future ruler, was selected as an All-Star in the first season of his career.
The eastern and western stars who were guests in Salt Lake City did not give the locals a good impression.
For example, the popular spicy chicken Jordan complained because he could not find a place to play golf in Salt Lake City: "Salt Lake City is very good, but I prefer to hold the All-Star Game in a warm city."
Because it is too cold in Salt Lake City now, if he goes outside to play golf, he is afraid that he will freeze.
Jordan may not have felt that his words would have any impact, but the local residents were very dissatisfied with it.
Ewing was more direct: "No offense meant, but I don't like Salt Lake City because it's too 'white' here. I'm sure all the black people in Salt Lake City are in the Jazz."
This kind of hilarity, it’s okay to say it behind closed doors on weekdays, and say it outside in front of the media.
Louis was unable to complain, and only sent the word silly beep to Uncle Ewing.
In this All-Star Game, the most watched event is not the All-Star Game. Although this may be Larry Bird's All-Star farewell battle, fans are looking forward to the Slam Dunk Contest.
Sean Kemp participated in the dunk contest for the second time since his rookie season.
Three years ago, he rocked the league with his performance, winning the slam dunk contest with unparalleled dominance.
Participating again now is also expected.
Kemp said that no matter what the result is, this will be the last time he will participate in the dunk contest.
What Louie looks forward to most is not the slam dunk contest.
Because Kemp has no opponents, as long as he does not make mistakes, the championship will be secured.
Louie is looking forward to the three-point contest.
In addition to the previous champion Miller, there are also Wilson, Bird and Jordan.
A three-point contest gathered Wilson, Bird, and Jordan?
In addition to Miller, a top three-level shooter in history, the participating players have both status and strength.
Louie never expected that Jordan would participate in the three-point contest.
In Louie's previous life, the reason why Jordan participated in the three-point contest was also due to pressure from the league. The league wanted him to participate in individual events to expand the influence of the All-Star Game, but he was tired of the slam dunk contest, so he participated in a three-point contest for fun.
Unexpectedly, a mistake would cause eternal hatred.
Participating in only one three-point contest has left the worst record that no one can break.
Because the three-pointer is the only skill Jordan can't practice at home-before this season, except for the three-pointer, Jordan's skills have reached a state of perfection.
But in fact, before Riley's football strategy came to Portland, Jordan's three-pointer was about to be practiced.
It was because Riley's strategy affected Jordan's muscle memory, which led to a series of subsequent problems.
In last year's finals, although the Blazers died of three-pointers, it was not because they couldn't shoot three-pointers, but because Wilson's three-pointers in the last five minutes of the fourth quarter were too deadly.
Since the Eastern Conference finals in 1988, the three-pointer has shown the power to change fate in the sport of basketball for the second time.
Wilson's three-pointer made the Blazers unable to defeat the Knicks, which also led to the final defeat.
This undoubtedly stimulated Jordan.
He chose to practice hard and participated in this year's three-point contest to prove that this technology is no longer his shortcoming.
Before the three-point contest started, Louis had a premonition in his heart that Jordan would not set the worst record in the previous life.
As a result, Wilson first encountered Waterloo with 14 points and was out of the group stage.
"We can't see from Benjamin's stiff shooting touch that he used three-pointers to force the team to defend the championship in the finals."
"Yes, is it really the temperature in Salt Lake City that affects his touch?"
The privilege of a popular player is that no matter what you do wrong, someone will find excuses and reasons for your mistakes.
However, the parties involved in this kind of game are just in a playful mood, and it is the local fans who are injured.
Bird was also eliminated in the group stage with 16 points.
After Louie left Boston, the Celtics paid less attention to three-pointers every year.
Bird once averaged 5 three-pointers per game under Louie. Now, his average three-pointers per game is only 2.2.
Comparing the shooting rate, Bird, who averaged 5 three-pointers per game, had a shooting rate only 3% lower than Bird, who averaged 2.2 shots per game.
So, why not?
It can only be said that traditional ideas kill people, and Louis has shown the correct usage of Byrd.
But his successors inherited only 90%.
Perhaps the water of the three-pointer is too deep for K.C and his successors to grasp, but it is still a pity.
In the final, the three-point matchup between Miller and Jordan was exciting.
The two first tied 22-22.
In overtime, Miller struggled to defeat Jordan's 4 points with 6 points, defending the championship of this event.
Miller was happy to hold the trophy, but his coach was not happy.
A Jordan who shot 22 points in the three-point contest appeared.
Does Jordan feel like eating dumplings today?
Louis didn't think he was eating dumplings.
Through the three-point contest, you can better observe the details of Jordan's shooting. Combined with his usual mid-range jumper, it can be clearly seen that his three-point shooting posture is different from that of mid-range shooting.
In addition to the change in long-range shooting, there are more things to prove that Jordan's outside shooting has improved.
In the Trail Blazers this season, Jordan averaged only 17.7 shots per game, and his career average has reached 22.2 shots per game.
He averaged 5 fewer shots per game, but averaged 27 points per game. What is the reason?
In addition to free throws, Jordan's average three-point attempts per game have skyrocketed from 1.8 last season to 5.2, and he averaged 2.3 goals per game.
This number of shots is 0.3 more than Wilson and as many as Bird in the 1983-84 season.
In this era, with such an efficiency with this number of shots, it can be seen how the trapeze was forced by the Knicks.
Or maybe Riley pushed him.
Louis believed that Riley must have used similar words to force him: "If you want to win the championship, you have to practice three-pointers to the level of Benjamin Wilson!"
But how could someone like Jordan only target Wilson?
Before he went to North Carolina to study, shooting was a weak point. By the time he finished his junior season and participated in the draft, he had already mastered the deadly mid-range shot.
In the first season, people said he couldn't defend.
Now he has been selected for the first defense for several consecutive years.
Either don't practice, or practice to the best. This is Jordan's attitude towards technology.
The "Extreme Jordan" that has never appeared in Louis's memory—perhaps the prefix should be added with "perfect"—is about to appear in front of them as a sworn enemy.
Louis sighed lightly, the matter has come to this point, there is no point in thinking about it any more.
Can only look forward.
In the slam dunk contest, Camp was a snakehead and a tiger tail. He almost missed the final due to mistakes in the group stage, but he played perfectly in the final and won the championship smoothly, and announced his "retirement" from the slam dunk contest.
"I made the noise I wanted to hear, and the reaction from the fans told me I was doing well," Kemp said with a laugh. "I wanted to make that noise with other techniques."
"Does that mean you won't be in the dunk contest again?"
"I think so."
Then came the last Legendary Tournament in history.
Featuring Dave Cowens, George Gervin, Calvin Murphy, Connie Hawkins, Zellmo Beatty, Ron Boone, Rod "Hot Rod" Hendry and more composition.
Not surprisingly, Gervin, who was still an active player in the past few years, is in the best competitive state.
But Legends isn't as popular with fans today as it was when it was first introduced in 1984.
Aside from their titles and brilliant careers ~www.mtlnovel.com~ legends who are active on the court are no better than semi-professional league players.
As far as the viewing experience goes, it's like a plate of shit-flavored ice cream.
It is of course good to see those superstars who were active in the league play again, but their performance is difficult to make fans feel "young".
The more Legends games are played, the fans feel differently from what the league wants them to feel.
"Watching Connie Hawkins move slowly on the field, he couldn't even jump." Tomjanovich said without exaggeration, "Many people's youth died in this game."
Tomjanovich perfectly summed up why the 1993 Legends was the last.
－－－－－Off Topic－－－－－
Skip a chapter, 939 is a continuation in the Jamaican restaurant, the specific content is that Rodman and Angie messed up a good team building. I didn’t post it because the discord presented in this chapter doesn’t need to be specially written. Nix has enough contradictions, and there is only one explosive point that ignites everything. So this episode ends with Louie's "It's better to eat spicy". If you want to watch it, you can watch it in the group, and I will post it to the group later.
