Although in Qin Yue’s mory, the NBA would originally invite these five famous slam dunk contest champions to serve as judges this year...
But with that harsh declaration Qin Yue made before the contest, the attention on this year’s slam dunk contest rose to unprecedented heights...
The attendance of these five forr slam dunk champions undoubtedly added more hype to the upcoming "great competition".
That afternoon, during rehearsal, Kobe specifically approached Qin Yue and said, "I will never give you a low score on purpose for personal reasons."
Before the contest, due to a long-standing unfriendly relationship with Qin Yue, Kobe, who would serve as a judge, was questioned by many dia and fans.
Especially Qin Yue’s fans, who were very concerned that Kobe might intentionally give Qin Yue a low score due to their antagonistic relationship.
Therefore, to avoid misunderstandings, knowing that Qin Yue is even more petty than himself, Kobe felt it was necessary to express his attitude and stance to Qin Yue beforehand.
But actually...
Even without Kobe’s assurance, Qin Yue wasn’t worried he would give him a low score.
Because as Kobe’s nesis, Qin Yue knows Kobe’s character well.
In fact, among this year’s five judges, the one Qin Yue really needs to watch out for is Jordan, who just turned 44.
Maybe it’s because his birthday celebration in Gambling City wasn’t pleasant, but...
If Qin Yue rembers correctly, historically, Jordan would score with harsh standards for this year’s slam dunk contest.
"Are you really planning to compete with these few moves?"
On the practice court, looking at Qin Yue who had only perford a few simple tomahawk dunks and stepped aside to rest, Jerald Green said with a face full of surprise.
Keen to prove what dunking is in front of Qin Yue, Green couldn’t believe Qin Yue would be so perfunctory during the warm-up.
Because typically, even if they don’t want to expose their dunks for the contest, players would perform so challenging dunks during pre-ga warm-ups to ensure their body is ready.
However, the next mont, facing Jas who had just walked into the training gym and the other contestants, Qin Yue calmly said, "Instead of worrying about , you’d better think hard about how you’ll beat them to fight for second place."
What moves did he prepare that allow him such arrogance?
At this mont, looking at the incredibly confident Qin Yue, even Jas had his brows furrowed.
Unlike others.
Regarding this good brother of his, Jas knew well...
Only when he is absolutely confident would he be this self-assured.
That night, amidst the never-ending sound of roulette and chips in Sin City...
Wade, who triumphed in the Skills Challenge, and Kapono, who won with a high score of 24 in the Three-Point Contest finals, were already becoming forgotten entities.
Perhaps this description is exaggerated...
But the upcoming "great competition" had already inevitably stolen the spotlight from the other events of this year’s All-Star Weekend.
Just...
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointnt of the live fans, who only recovered from their dull state when Qin Yue finally made his grand entrance.
With the deliberate arrangent by the NBA officials, whether it was reigning champion Nate Robinson, who appeared first...
Or Jas, who ca out second to last and scored 45 points with a long-distance between-the-legs tomahawk dunk, they couldn’t let the live audience feel the charm of the slam dunk contest.
Howard and Green’s first dunks only scored 43 and 44 points respectively.
As for Thomas?
Jordan’s given 7 points proved just how bad Thomas’s first dunk was.
If, before the slam dunk contest began, the state of basketball fans worldwide was excitent, even frenzy...
Then at this mont, even the upcoming final perforr Qin Yue couldn’t stir any waves in the hearts of these disappointed fans.
At this mont, feeling the heavy atmosphere on site, Qin Yue had to change his strategy temporarily.
The next second, actively walking towards the judges’ table, Qin Yue said to Jordan, who had been stricter in scoring than others tonight, "Michael, do you dare to make a bet with ?"
Upon hearing this, the sleepy Jordan forced himself to wake up and opened his eyes to say, "What do you want to bet on?"
Qin Yue said, "I bet this dunk, you’ll give 10 points."
Next, taking a deep breath.
With his right hand gripping the basketball firmly, suddenly dashing towards the paint area, Qin Yue...
Spun a full circle in the air, then viciously slamd the basketball through the hoop with a powerful one-arm rotation dunk!
This is the future dunk by Aaron Gordon that amazes the crowd! It’s also the strongest dunk of his career!
But at this mont, Qin Yue perford it absolutely more perfectly, more brutally, more violently than Gordon!
Seven years!
Seven whole years since Vince Carter personally killed the slam dunk contest in Oakland, the NBA hadn’t witnessed such an explosive dunk!
On the sidelines, holding a camcorder, Carlo Anthony shouted loudly, "My God, how does he do all this?"
On the baseline, Paul, who had been waiting for Qin Yue to finish his dunk, punched that damned basketball into the sky with a Cannon Fist, "What’s the point of continuing? The contest is already over!"
At the judges’ table.
Kobe, Owen, Wilkins, and Carter all instantly raised the 10-point signs.
And Jordan?
Slowly picked up each of the scoring cards on the table, then angrily slamd each to the ground. Soon, there was only one last card left in front of Jordan.
That card...
Brought Jordan trendous joy, but also caused his heart to montarily stop - it’s the 10 points.
And at the Las Vegas site, with Michael Jordan giving his 10 points, at the comntary booth, Charles Barkley, awakened from his slumber by Qin Yue’s dunk, crazily pounded on his companion Kenny Smith while saying, "Go ho! Everyone go ho!
Ladies and gentlen, this year’s slam dunk contest is already over!"
