"The first step of the three steps to show off is to be successful: publicly set the flag, it has been achieved."

"The second step of the three steps of pretending to be fake is to show off to the participants involved in this incident, to be completed."

Liu Mang was hiding in the corner, so scared!

The looks in Francis and Peja's eyes looked like they wanted to kill someone; Ray Allen was just well-behaved, but his eyes were still very unpleasant; the others were okay, but either unfamiliar with them or they were defeated.

Liu Mang considers himself not a person who is good at showing off. This kind of thing is too scary!

But in order to win the three-point championship, this guy has to keep pretending.

And... I'm afraid of returning, and the feeling of showing off is really exciting!

After changing into training clothes, Liu Mang went to the Wachovia Center's training ground to practice three-point shooting.

"Shua..."

"Bang..."

"Bang..."

"Shua..."

…

After shooting continuously, I quickly found the feeling.

When I was one-on-one with Jordan in the early morning, my outside touch was average for a long time. In addition to the fact that Jordan's physical fitness was too violent and he could interfere very well without defensive skills. The important thing is that there was no practice time for hot touch. In normal games,

I started practicing shooting in the afternoon.

"Ha, Ace, you didn't do the activity?"

At this time, the players participating in the All-Star Weekend were either busy participating in various interviews to gain popularity and opportunities to be in the news, or participating in business activities, but there was one person who came to the training ground like Liu Mang.

Liu Mang was a little surprised and looked at the person who came. It turned out to be this guy. Liu Mang greeted politely: "Hello, Mr. Nash."

Huh? First...Mr. Nash is a little surprised. Is he the same person as the arrogant rookie who was interviewed at the game venue half an hour ago?

Looking at Liu Mang's childish face, Nash felt that this might be the real Liu Mang in private! He has also been in the NBA for five or six years and knows that there are many players who are completely different in basketball and non-basketball matters.

Two people.

Nash smiled and said: "Ace, just call me Steve. Are you practicing three-pointers? Wow, you are really diligent. No, I have to practice hard. I feel almost rusty after resting for a few days. I also

I don’t want the three-point championship to be taken away by you so easily!”

"Steve, then you may be disappointed. You probably can only compete for second place." Liu Mang was very serious when he said this.

"Haha, I'm so confident. Let's see who's better at three-pointers in our game tonight!" Nash is also one of the easy-to-talk people, and he doesn't dislike Liu Mang's rhetoric. In other words, he wants to

He must have this kind of self-confidence. When he was drafted, he thought no team would pick him. Who knew that he would be picked with the 15th pick? That's why he had the much-talked-about image of Guo Xiao after being drafted.

Four's weird extreme twisted smiley face.

…

…

News is a killing knife, a tool that makes people become famous overnight, and a vane that guides public opinion...

Liu Mang's forced pretense has undoubtedly become popular again.

Newspapers are selling well, TV news ratings are high, and online news has an explosion of clicks.

The media really loved this rookie and wanted to surround him every day waiting for his mouth to tell some breaking news.

It's a pity that the Eagles have an old-fashioned college coach who is used to college students not accepting interviews as much as possible.

This is not just Georgia Tech’s policy, many universities have the same policy.

NCAA stars can often see their news, but it is all game news, and except for the pre-draft promotion period, it is rare to see interviews with NCAA players during the season. Although the NCAA officially makes a lot of money, but for

For players, perhaps it is truly pure basketball, which is why March Madness can surpass the ultra-high ratings of the NBA and NFL, two of the four most watched leagues in North America.

Seeing Liu Mang's words, the attention of the All-Star Three-Point Contest has greatly increased, and the official NBA bosses are very happy. This rookie is a lucky star!

Originally, this year's comprehensive competition had almost lost attention. Except for Ray Allen's unprecedented participation, Liu Mang participated in all events except the dunk contest. This year's comprehensive competition really attracted too many stars.

Less, Francis' popularity is okay, but just okay. Compared with the other three All-Star guards, he is far behind. His All-Star votes are less than half of the other three All-Star guards.

And Liu Mang's strong pretense drew attention to the comprehensive competition, and NBA officials were naturally overjoyed.

Soon, the sky gradually darkened, night fell, traffic jams began to break out around the Wachovia Center, and the major bars in Philadelphia began to do business again.

The second night of All-Star Weekend - the All-Star Game is about to begin!

The duration of the comprehensive game is also close to two and a half hours. The first game is the three-point contest. In the middle there is the Shooting Star Challenge and the Mixed Shooting Challenge. The finale is another All-Star Weekend after 1984.

An eye-catching event, it even became the most popular event for All-Stars - the Slam Dunk Contest!

At six o'clock in the evening, the pre-match activities had already begun.

In order to save the comprehensive competition that made Carter become the god of dunks and was almost destroyed by the god of dunks, the NBA officially invited the famous female singer Mariah Carey, the most popular world-class singing queen in the 1990s and early 21st century.

Perform a pre-match singing to attract attention.

Except for a few people such as Whitney Houston and Madonna, no one can compare with Mariah Carey among the European and American singers in the current music scene.

The appearance of this popular female pop singer who released her first solo album in 1990 and whose record sales exceeded 100 million by 2001 kicked off the second night of the All-Star Weekend!

…

After the pre-game activities, today's on-site host began to warm up for tonight's game.

"Gentlemen and ladies, the All-Star Night has begun again!" The host used a passionate and high-pitched voice to stir up the atmosphere of the scene.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The fans at the scene were already excited because they watched Mariah Carey perform live, and their emotions were completely aroused.

Compared with the Rookie Game, the All-Star Game is a full game with a pause and a rest of more than two hours. This type of game divided into four parts is more suitable for stimulating the atmosphere of the scene, so there is a host.

people.

“Let’s welcome our contestants for tonight’s All-Star Three-Point Contest with the warmest cheers!”

"The first person to enter is Paul Pierce, the overlord in NBA history and the leader of the Celtics..."

"Next is the young star Quentin Richardson of the Los Angeles Clippers..."

"Spurs veteran superstar Steve Smith..."

"Last season's Rookie of the Year Mike Miller..."

"The Dallas Mavericks' new All-Star Steve Nash..."

The host first takes advantage of the enthusiasm of the fans to introduce the less popular players first, so as not to be embarrassed when no one cheers, especially when the whole place is quiet and there are only a few fans of the player's home team.

While cheering, it seemed even more embarrassing.

Several players that some fans may not know were introduced in succession. The cheers of the fans obviously gradually weakened, and some who were still cheering were just to save face.

But for the next few people, the cheers came back again!

"Next, welcome to the gorgeous king's super artilleryman Peja Stojakovic..."

The Kings have been ranked first in the league this year. Since the Pistons and Hawks returned to normal levels at the end of November, the Kings have never fallen from the first position. The gorgeous Princeton has attracted a lot of attention. As a king, except for Chris Webber

The strongest scorer outside of the league, Peja has been very popular in the past two years. Unfortunately, there are two guys in the Western Conference forward who shamelessly occupy the position. They are also super ticket suckers. He didn't even get many All-Star votes.

But at least in the past two years when the Kings were at their peak, Peja was very popular in North America. First of all, he looked like someone from Hollywood, he was so good at playing basketball, he was a gentle man who was not irritated under normal circumstances, and he donated money every year.

Became a Croatian charity ambassador.

"Next, let's welcome our strongest rookie, a super rookie who entered the All-Star Game in his first year in the NBA, Ace Liu!"

When Liu Mang appeared, the cheers reached the highest level since Mariah Carey sang the song!

It can be said that most people came to see Liu Mang, which can be seen from one very obvious thing.

After Liu Mang came out, a large group of people, who in Liu Mang's opinion were definitely organized and premeditated, began to carry out mass destruction and sabotage activities.

At least a thousand fans all wore T-shirts with the Chinese character "hooligan" printed on the chest, and started shooting sniper shots!

Then the customary scene came again. People all like to watch the fun, and the American imperialists are the kind of people who love to follow and imitate other people besides the fighting nations. Slowly, nearly 20,000 people at the scene followed.

On the way to sniping...

Liu Mang painfully hid between Nash and Pi Shiyi, who looked unhappy. Pi Shiyi really disliked this rookie. Although he was good and worthy of respect, he really disliked his pushy personality!

The commotion caused by Liu Mang robbed Ray Allen, who played the finale, of his limelight.

Originally, Ray Allen was not that popular, but he was really good at three-pointers, and everyone wanted to see his performance in the three-point contest. However, if Liu Mang, a newsmaker, was around, he wouldn't get that much attention.

Already.

After the host introduced Ray Allen, people were still jokingly calling Liu Mang's English name and doing sniping movements, as if they wouldn't stop until everyone did the same thing!

Finally, the introduction was over, and the staff began to place the game props, five shooting points, each with 5 balls, four ordinary balls and one colored ball. A hit with an ordinary ball was worth 1 point, and a hit with a colored ball was worth 2 points.

First of all, the order of appearance, Liu Mang managed to get the No. 1 lottery.

A brief host interview before the game.

"Ace, congratulations on getting the first chance to appear. How are you? Are you confident that you will win? Everyone is waiting for you to win the championship!" The host congratulated him when he came up.

Congratulations...

Liu Mang really wants to say congratulations to your sister!

To be honest, Liu Mang is not good at the three-point contest. He has to score 25 goals in one minute. This is already difficult for Liu Mang, let alone five positions.

Therefore, Liu Mang has been preparing for the first steps since the afternoon for showing off!

That's right, Liu Mang will show off again next!
Chapter completed!
