Chapter 307 Curry and Pierce

"The second-year rookie is no match. The first-year rookie really won. He didn't break his promise." - "NBA Online"

"With a crazy performance, Bai conquered all the second-year players." - "Today's Beautiful China Sports News"

"Hahaha, Crawford gave in. He was really frightened by Bai." - "The New York Times"

"Bai is the best rookie in the league in the past 20 years, even worse than Kobe and Duncan." - "Minnesota Daily"

"Thank you for Bai's donation. He is God's most beloved child." - "Orleans Evening News"

"Crazy white, crazy rookie contest." - "Houston Daily"

"White is bound to be the champion in the three-point contest." - "Los Angeles Sports News"

"The three-point contest is about to begin. I blindly picked Bai to be the champion." - "Today's Sports"

Most of the newspapers the next day were boasting. It had to be said that leading a first-year rookie to fight against second-year players with live ammunition could still lead to victory.

This is really difficult.

Especially last year was a big year for the draft. George, Ade, Cousins, and Wall have all become the core of the team.

As for this year's rookies, to be honest, they are far behind, which means Bai Yi is a little better.

Others like Owen Williams have not grown and are not comparable to second-year rookies.

But faced with such a disadvantage, Bai Yi still relied on his super personal strength to lead the team to defeat the second-year rookie team. It was really not easy.

So most of the media are praising it.

A few media still praise it, but not the rookie game, but the three-point shooting contest that will be held next.

The three-point shooting contest in the All-Star Game is a type of skills competition.

In addition to the three-point shooting contest, there are also skills challenges and dunk contests.

The best thing to watch is naturally the dunk contest, and then the three-point shooting contest.

Many media believe that Bai Yi is the champion of the three-point shooting contest.

The reason is naturally that he is the player who has hit the most three-pointers this season in the league's regular season. In addition, he is also the player with the highest three-pointer percentage this season.

No matter which three-pointer data it is.

For example, Bai Yi ranks first in open field goal percentage and three-point field goal percentage with people on his back, and far exceeds second place.

Under such circumstances, the media can be forgiven for thinking that he can win the three-point shooting contest.

And the reason why Bai Yi is not so confident.

It's because the rule of this three-point shooting contest is that all shots must be shot within one minute.

There are five shooting points in total, with a total of twenty-five balls.

There are five flower balls among them, the other balls are worth one point, and the flower ball is worth two points.

Thirty points in total.

Generally speaking, the first four are pennies and the last one is a flower ball.

The five positions are all relatively popular, and they are also where three-point shooters often train.

When shooters train, they may not necessarily miss three if they shoot a hundred balls.

However, judging from the performance of the Three-Point Shootout Contest in the All-Star Game, the pitchers did not perform very well because of the fans watching, the on-site DJ cheering, and the pressure of competition.

In the past thirty years, the best one was Kapono of the Heat in 2007, who scored 24 points. The worst one was naturally the five-point shot by Jordan.

Generally speaking, twenty-two points and twenty-one points are more common. This score can compete for the three-point shooting contest championship.

This three-point shooting contest has many well-known players participating, such as Ray Allen, Pierce, Durant, Gibson, James Jones, Wright, and Curry.

Among them, Pierce defeated Curry and became the three-point contest champion last year. He scored 20 points at the time.

Ray Allen is about to become the league's three-point leader this season, and his total number of three-pointers in history is about to surpass the legendary shooter Reggie Miller.

It took about fifteen years.

Now that Bai Yi has entered the league, the media predicts that he will become the new generation of three-point king. Based on Bai Yi's three-point shooting rate and quantity this season, it will only take him five seasons to surpass Ray Allen.

Bai Yi's participation this time is undoubtedly the biggest hot spot in this three-point shooting contest.

Many media predict that Bai Yi will be the champion of the three-point shooting competition, and many people think that he can easily break the record.

With so many people, they are definitely praising Bai Yi.

He didn't want to accept such public opinion, but he had no choice. It was only one day, and Bai Yi couldn't explain it now.

The day after the rookie game ended, the All-Star Skills Competition began.

Players such as Paul, Wall, Rose, Westbrook, and Curry all participated.

This game is actually very interesting. It requires not only dribbling and coordination of the players, but also shooting and speed.

The more comprehensive a player is, the easier it is to win the championship. The ultimate winner is Curry.

Curry is a rookie in 2008 and is the new generation core player of the Warriors. He is very strong.

An hour after the skills competition ended, the three-point shooting contest began.

This guy Curry is participating again.

Bai Yi is naturally among them. He and Curry are standing together. The two are about the same height, but Bai Yi looks much better than Curry.

He is stronger and has better arm length.

Curry looked at Bai Yi with admiration and admiration in his eyes.

"Bai, how did you do that? Do you really practice three-pointers from such a distance?"

Curry is very talented in three-point shooting. His father, David Curry, was one of the best three-pointers in the league.

Curry has always felt that he is the best three-point shooter in the league.

He shot accurately and quickly. It wasn't until he saw Bai Yibiao's three-pointer that he realized that there are people outside the world and there is a sky outside the world.

But Curry usually shoots three-pointers from farther away.

Many people say there is no need for Curry to shoot that far.

Because no matter how far it is, it can't add one more point.

Until the appearance of Bai Yi, Curry saw the advantage of a super long three-pointer, which is that it can open up space.

When Bai Yi comes on the field, he is like a nuclear weapon. The opponent needs to arrange for two people to double-team him.

Bai Yi has studied the opponents in this three-point shooting competition, and he quite likes Curry.

"Well, I usually practice some, but not very often. I mainly practice ordinary three-pointers."

Curry nodded, thoughtfully.

Next to him, Pierce heard the conversation between Curry and Bai Yi. He chuckled and said to Curry: "Rookie, I will beat you this time."

Last season Curry scored 19 points, Pierce scored 20 points, and Pierce won.

Pierce then said to Bai Yi: "Bai, I will beat you too."

Pierce is still looking forward to winning the three-point contest.

He has always considered himself second only to Kobe among old-school players.

And there are very few areas where he is better than Kobe.

Before Bai Yi, Kobe had several three-pointer records.

For example, scoring consecutive three-pointers, such as the most three-pointers in a single game.

Pierce does not have such an honor. Fortunately, he won a three-point shooting contest last year, which he is very proud of.

He hopes to win the championship again this season.
