Chapter 758 Aaron Gordon Shocked the Audience!

The four contestants have each deducted one at this time. Xie Chen ranks first with 50 points, Zach LaVine ranks second with 46 points, Aaron Gordon third with 45 points, and Drummond ranks first. at the end.

According to the rules, the four players will have to dunk one more time, and then the top two will be selected to advance to the finals based on the total score of these two dunks. Xie Chen is recognized as the strongest and has a higher score than the other players. It is basically certain that he will advance to the finals. As a big man, Drummond obviously cannot compete with these three in the dunk contest, so there is no suspense about being eliminated.

In this dunk, the only suspense is whether Zach LaVine will advance to the finals or Aaron Gordon?

Although Aaron Gordon entered the NBA in the same year as Xie Chen, his reputation is too small compared to Xie Chen because he has not had any commendable achievements. Many people have even heard of Aaron Gordon for the first time. In terms of name, he is far less popular than Zach LaVine.

Most fans, including commentators, agree that Xie Chen and Zach LaVine will advance to the finals next.

At the scene, the performance time of the mascots began. In order not to let his body get cold, Zach LaVine always walked around the sidelines. He was obviously not preparing for the second dunk, but to put himself in the best physical condition. finals.

On the other hand, the other three people were sitting on the bench.

Xie Chen naturally knows that sitting on the bench for too long will have an impact on his physical condition, but he used his system ability to dunk, not to mention that his body was slightly cold, even if he was naked in a place with more than ten degrees below zero. Jump, Xie Chen can also guarantee that he can jump so high.

Drummond knew that he had no chance of entering the finals, and there was no need to do those extraneous actions. When he saw Gordon sitting there, he thought Gordon had the same idea as him. However, Gordon was so angry that he didn't want to He couldn't wait for the second dunk to come.

Time flies by like a year for Gordon who wants to prove himself, but for the other three, it goes very quickly.

"Okay, I'm going to play. Although we can't make it to the finals, we should all enjoy the second dunk, right?" Drummond comforted Aaron Gordon before getting up, and Gordon chuckled. Responded without speaking.

Yang Jian: "Drummond started the second dunk first, oh? He also brought Nash to the court. It seemed that he wanted to cooperate. Although he could not advance to the finals, Zhuang Shen was still very attentive."

As a football expert, Nash showed off his ball-driving skills as soon as he came up, which attracted a burst of cheers. After the show, Nash slowly walked the ball towards the basket, and Drummond followed Nash, ready to catch it at any time. The ball was dunked, and then Nash hooked the ball back into the air with his heel. However, this time, Nash's hook position was not very good, and Drummond was unable to complete the dunk.

In fact, Drummond is not very familiar with Nash. He only decided to ask Nash for help after watching videos of previous dunk contests and seeing the cooperation between Nash and Stoudemire. Basically I haven’t practiced much.

After doing this several times in a row, Nash and Drummond completed a tacit cooperation. Nash picked up the ball with his heel, and then Drummond, who followed, received the ball and violently hit the frame with a big windmill.

The audience also gave encouraging applause. This dunk was not bad, but it also confirmed that Drummond would be eliminated.

Afterwards, the judges scored. Except for McGrady, who gave it a 7, everyone else gave it an 8.

In fact, no one cares about Drummond's score. His first deduction score was too low to threaten Zach LaVine. The only one who can threaten LaVine is Aaron Gordon.

Immediately afterwards, Aaron Gordon of the Magic came on the court!

Gordon's teammate Payton suddenly became excited and shouted at Gordon: "Show your strength and perform to your heart's content!"

Gordon's face also became very serious, and he said to himself: "It's not easy to come to this stage. Victor Oladipo stopped me in the first year, and in the second year, Xie found LeBron and Russell. If you squeeze out my spot, in the third year, I can finally compete for the slam dunk contest championship!"

As a player in the same class as Xie Chen and LaVine, Gordon believes that his dunking level is no worse than that of Xie Chen and LaVine. However, LaVine and Xie Chen shocked the world in 2015 and 2016 respectively and attracted fans all over the world. We knew about their dunking ability, but it wasn't until 2017 that Gordon had the opportunity to show it to the world.

At this time, James and Westbrook happened to be next to each other. Westbrook said to James: "Do you know? This kid was planning to come to the dunk contest last year, but because of our participation, he was squeezed out."

James had no expression on his face and replied softly: "Really? If I had known, I should have given him the spot last year."

Westbrook laughed and said, "I thought the same thing, haha. However, this guy clearly saw how brutal Xie's dunk was last year, and he dared to continue doing it this year. It's quite cool."

James also nodded in agreement, but if you have courage, you have courage. On the field, it still depends on your strength. Frankly speaking, James admires Gordon very much. Gordon, like James, is very powerful and powerful. An explosive dunker, but relying solely on violent aesthetics cannot defeat Xie Chen. James has proved this last year. Thinking of this, James can't help but feel sorry for Aaron Gordon.

However, Gordon himself was full of confidence and had a confident smile on his face.

Gordon first came to the left corner without the ball in his hand. He didn't know what he wanted to do. At this time, he looked towards the backcourt and saw their Magic mascot holding the ball and stepping on it. Hot Wheels slides over cutely.

"You definitely don't know that my dunking is completely different with and without a mascot!" Gordon showed a confident smile. He was finally going to show off his trump card. The appearance of the mascot will make Gordon Den's dunk becomes special because he will perform a dunk with the mascot that no one else has ever done.

Magic Dragon, the Magic mascot, is both tall and cute. After high-fiving Gordon, he came to the basket on Hot Wheels and put the ball on top of his head, which happened to be sandwiched between two yellow horns. The mascot is very tall, and the mascot clothes he wears are very fat, which led Zhang Weiping to mistakenly think that the magic dragon was not holding a normal basketball, but a smaller ball.

Magic Dragon is ready, with his back turned to Aaron Gordon. Gordon is ready to go in the left corner, ready to rush forward at any time.

"Let's start with this ball!" Aaron Gordon said secretly.

Then, Aaron Gordon ran towards the basket at high speed, reached behind the Magic Dragon in two or three strides, and then jumped up!

Gordon took off with all his strength, got the ball in his hand while leaping over the Magic Dragon, then stepped over the Magic Dragon, made a crotch movement in the air, and completed a dunk!

All in one go, one success!

The scene was shocked instantly!

After Gordon finished dunking, he even made a congratulatory gesture excitedly!

Yang Jian was also excited: "Oh, this ball is so difficult! I stepped on the ladder and went up, and also made a movement of changing hands with my hips in the air. It was like walking in the clouds. I didn't even see how to dunk." "

Zhang Weiping also said: "This goal is not easy, I'm afraid I will score 50 points."

Because this dunk was so fast and unexpected, many people, including the commentator, did not see Aaron Gordon's movements clearly. Soon, the slow-motion action was played on the scene. As soon as the slow-motion was played, The shock is even greater!

In slow motion, Aaron Gordon's strong muscle lines are vividly displayed, his tense body, taking off with all his strength, especially the distance between his face and the basket after leaping over the Magic Dragon!

Everyone was surprised to find that his nose almost touched the basket!

Yang Jian looked at the slow motion and exclaimed: "Oh my god, this basket is almost up to my nose. It's really scary to look at! Aaron Gordon was holding back his breath to dunk the ball. It's both beautiful and beautiful." It's powerful and difficult, and it looks dangerous. Gordon is very strong. It seems we all underestimated him."

Zhang Weiping said: "It's really scary. Gordon's shot must have scored 50 points. Put it this way, it's really suspenseful. Zach LaVine only scored one more point than Gordon for the first dunk. If Gordon scored 50 points for this shot, , it’s a lot of pressure for LaVine.”

Yang Jiandao: "Yes, if Gordon gets full points, LaVine will have to deduct full points to advance to the finals. It's so difficult to get a spot in the finals. We didn't expect it before."

Many people at the scene came to watch the finals between Xie Chen and LaVine, but after seeing how strong Gordon was, many people actually wanted to watch Xie Chen and Gordon face off in the finals.

Because Xie Chen and LaVine have competed once in last year's finals. LaVine and Xie Chen's dunks are very similar, but Xie Chen is more versatile than LaVine. If they compete again, Xie Chen will definitely win. In that case , it is better to let Gordon enter the finals, maybe Gordon will bring different surprises to people.

The five judges also had different expressions. None of them expected Gordon's dunk to be so amazing.

Zach LaVine was even more panicked. He was obviously surprised by the shocking power of Gordon's dunk. Xie Chen was quite happy. He had a perfect score on the first dunk. He basically had no pressure. On the contrary, he hoped that Gordon would advance to the finals. , can bring him new excitement and challenges.

Next, there is the very important judge’s scoring.

I saw the scores given by each judge displayed on the screen.

Magic Johnson had 10 points, Tracy McGrady had 10 points, Mutombo had 10 points, George Gervin had 10 points, and O'Neal had 9 points!

"O'Neal actually gave 9 points!" Yang Jian was shocked.

Zhang Weiping couldn't stand it anymore: "O'Neal got weird at this time. This must be a 10-point dunk. I'm afraid he wanted to save 10 points to send LaVine to the finals."

The moment O'Neal scored 9 points, the audience booed and complained for Aaron Gordon!

"That was a 10-point dunk!"

"This is obviously to send Zach LaVine to the finals, shady!"

Everyone on the scene has pointed all the fingers at O'Neal, especially on the Internet, scolding O'Neal terribly.

Gordon's face became a little depressed in his excitement, but he didn't get a perfect score? Does Gordon think O'Neal is targeting him?

"After all, you were once a Magic player, why didn't you give me full marks? This was obviously a perfect slam dunk!" Aaron Gordon was very unwilling. He knew that O'Neal liked to show off, and would always do something to attract attention on big occasions. He does some ridiculous things, but every point is very important to Gordon. It depends on whether he can advance to the finals!

Gordon still has two dunks that are sure to get perfect scores. If he doesn't make it to the finals, he will regret it for the rest of his life!

"There will be no thanks for the slam dunk contest next year. What's the point of even if I win the championship then!" Gordon sat on the bench in silence.

Drummond patted Gordon on the shoulder and whispered: "Originally, I thought you couldn't make it to the finals like me... I'm sorry, man, you should have scored 50 points for this dunk."

At the scene, because O'Neal gave Gordon a 9-pointer, the mood of the fans changed drastically. When Zach LaVine came on the stage, there were still a lot of boos. This also caused LaVine a lot of trouble and affected him. emotions, because everyone felt that O'Neal gave Gordon 9 points just to give LaVine a back door, so that LaVine could easily enter the finals and meet Xie Chen.

"I really can't stand it anymore. Why is this kid Zach LaVine so lucky? Not only did he get into the All-Star game thanks to Xie, but he was still sent to the finals?"

"Yes, I also think Shaq's approach is too unfair to Aaron Gordon, and there is absolutely no need for him to do it. Zach LaVine's free throw line jump is as invincible as Xie's in the world. As long as he uses You can definitely score 50 points by dunking at the free throw line, and you can beat Gordon and enter the finals."

…

Zach LaVine doesn't know what fans at the scene and around the world are talking about him. In fact, he has been criticized for being qualified to participate in the All-Star Game, and O'Neal deliberately gave low scores to his competitors. This makes LaVine feel even more humiliated on the court...

"Shaq, why do you give him 9 points? Even if you give him full points, I can still make it to the finals." Zach LaVine said secretly.

Then, Zach LaVine started to dunk. He walked to the backcourt and seemed to be preparing to take off from the free throw line for a dunk. However, the ball was in the hands of his teammates in the frontcourt. It looked like an alley-oop.

"Is it an alley-oop dunk from the free throw line?" Yang Jian asked doubtfully.

Sure enough, Zach LaVine sprinted with all his strength. When he was near the free throw line, his teammate threw the ball up. After LaVine jumped up, he got the ball and dunked towards the basket.

boom!

It's a dunk!

Zach LaVine's first dunk was unsuccessful.

This is still rare for LaVine, because LaVine, like Xie Chen, is a dunk player with a high success rate, basically succeeding in one go.

Immediately afterwards, LaVine dunked for the second time. Unexpectedly, he dunked again!

"He seems to be emotionally affected." Andrew Wiggins secretly said, knowing that LaVine cannot fail twice in a row.

No matter how wonderful the dunk is, if it fails twice in a row, even if it succeeds the third time, it will be difficult to get a perfect score. Gordon seems to have seen hope!
