Fan Xi was very calm and calm. It was not that he could not see the arrogance, provocation, unyieldingness, ridicule and high-profile in Paul's eyes, but it was just that he did not want to argue with him in such a place. It was useless.
He turned a blind eye and walked over, walked inside, and greeted Stephen Curry warmly who was participating in the skills challenge.
"Jack, you stole the show last night. When I returned to the hotel, ten sports channels were reporting on you. Even when I turned to the Hollywood channel, they were reporting on Selena, the female star who said she would never change her mind.
Chasing you."
Stephen Curry said exaggeratedly.
At this time, a slightly harsh voice sounded next to him: "Stephen, is this your good friend Jack? He has become very famous recently. I was watching the adult channel yesterday, and the famous busty Jordan said he wanted to date Jack."
"Hello, I'm Russell Westbrook."
A guy who looked like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle turned around. His upper body was bare and full of strong muscle lines.
Fan Xi quickly reached out her hand, shook his hand, and hugged him with black courtesy.
Westbrook was a lottery pick in 2008. He is a legend. When he was a child, his basketball talent was not very high. On the contrary, Kelsey, who grew up with him, was a superstar since he was a child, and even became a superstar when he was a sophomore in high school.
Locked in a full scholarship to the university, but an accident caused his good brother to pass away suddenly. He worked hard with his good brother's basketball dream, and finally entered the famous basketball school UCL. After entering UCL, he also played in the first season.
He was a substitute, and later the main point guard Darren Collison was injured, so he got the chance to start. As a result, as soon as he started, his violent physical fitness was revealed, and he showed off his skills in the confrontation with OJ Mayo, the designated number one pick of the year.
, quickly entered the vision of NBA scouts, and then entered the NBA. It is now his third season, but everyone believes that he will become a superstar in the future.
Because he dares to play, rush, steal statistics, and be responsible, and his physical fitness is extremely strong, he is known as the second-best point guard in the league after Derrick Rose.
Tonight, he came here to participate in the skills challenge.
He is a very confident person. He feels that he does not rely on physical fitness to play. He also has a strong brain and skills.
However, the other four people who entered the skills challenge did not regard him as a real opponent.
This year's Skills Challenge can be regarded as a super competition for the new generation of point guards: Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook, Derrick Rose, John Wall and Chris Paul have all signed up to participate.
The competition is quite fierce.
Some people even think that this year's Skills Challenge is the most interesting competition among the "three major events".
"Jack, you should really go on a date with that busty Jordan and tell us whether she is artificial silicone or natural." Westbrook teased Fan Xi loudly.
Fan Xi quickly waved her hand and refused, saying that she was not a womanizer.
When he said this, the locker room burst into laughter again.
Interestingly, Westbrook's teammate Kevin Durant was the second player to take the initiative to make friends with Fanci.
Although Kevin Durant is only in the fourth season of his career, he is actually already a superstar in the league. His status in this locker room is equivalent to Chris Paul.
However, his influence in all aspects is greater than Chris Paul.
Durant's endorsement contract with Nike is the first in the league. His scoring performance is becoming more and more unsolvable, and he is the second truly buggy player in the league today.
The first buggy player is naturally LeBron James. James has the weight of a center, the speed of a top guard, the explosiveness and jumping of a top forward and guard swingman... He is simply like a tank with supercar speed.
Kevin Durant, on the other hand, has taken a different approach. He has the height of a center and a wingspan longer than that of a center. He also has the ball-handling ability and low center of gravity of a guard. The most exaggerated thing is...his shooting touch is the best in today's league.
The first three levels.
Such a player can only be described as a bug.
The last bug like this was Shaquille O'Neal.
Tim Duncan may also count, but after all, the bug is not that obvious.
Among the new generation players, Rose can be considered half a bug, and his physical fitness is also very strong. Westbrook can barely be considered half... But their physical hardware advantages are not as good as those of LeBron James and Kevin Durant.
obvious.
"Jack, I'm Kevin Durant. Can you teach me some tips on how to fall in love with female celebrities?" Durant discussed with Fan Xi seriously.
Durant is different from other superstars. Other superstars will accumulate enough confidence after dominating the court. After establishing a wealth empire economically, they will always have some superhuman aura.
But Durant, even though he is one of the most profitable superstars in the league today, even though his ability on the court is getting closer and closer to the top.
However, his temperament has always been relatively "obscene". Chinese fans say that he has the temperament of a migrant worker, and he himself often wears a variety of spirited boy clothes, and is also keen on carrying a backpack to participate in events.
so….
Fan Xi thought about it seriously, and he answered his new friend sincerely: "Actually... it seems... I don't have any special skills. Maybe I just rely on my face."
Fan Xi said very seriously.
Although this sounds like a joke.
What’s interesting is that Kevin Durant was actually very serious. He beat his chest with his fist, pointed at Fan Xi, and said: "Jack. This is why I felt connected when I saw you. Ours
The temperament matches so well. Frankly speaking, you are the only man in the entire NBA who makes me have an appearance crisis."
Fan Xi looked at Durant.
He was sure that Durant was not joking with him, and that he was serious as if he was copying the answers on the SAT exam.
Fan Xi reluctantly nodded and said against his will: "We are indeed evenly matched in this regard."
Durant hugged Fan Xi and said, "Good brother!"
Durant's friendship came unexpectedly.
Later, Durant and Fan Xi chatted for a while about his emotional problems. He said that he and Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson have been exchanging text messages. This time he came to Los Angeles to participate in the All-Star Game, and he wanted to find an opportunity to marry Scarlett Johansson.
Make an appointment and the two parties go on a formal date. So I asked Fan Xi what Hollywood female stars like.
Fan Xi really has never thought about this issue. It seems that others have always speculated about what he likes.
Therefore, he has no advice to provide Durant.
At this time, Durant invited Fan Xi and said how about we have a group date. You invite Taylor or Jenner or Selena, and I invite Scarlett. They are all Hollywood female stars, and we are all
NBA stars are just like friendships, not awkward.
Fan Xi admires Durant's imagination.
He had no choice but to say that this matter was beyond his control.
He wanted to refuse politely.
Unexpectedly, Durant slapped his chest loudly and said that this matter would be taken care of by him.
Fan Xi was convinced.
Just as the conversation between the two ended, a player suddenly walked in and shouted loudly: "Hey, are you all here to compete for second place?"
Fan Xi and Durant raised their heads and looked over at the same time.
The eyes of all the surrounding players were attracted to this guy.
This sentence has long been engraved in the NBA's "Trash Talk Bible". It is the history of Larry Bird's majesty. He participated in the three-point shooting contest, kicked open the door and walked into the locker room before the game, and declared proudly
:Are you here to compete for second place?
Then, he indeed won the three-point shooting contest that year. While taking away the bonus and honor, he also left behind the reputation of a generation of pressing king.
Who knew someone would actually do something like this tonight?
Fan Xi raised his head and quickly recognized this person.
It's Celtics forward Paul Pierce.
He participated in this year's three-point shooting contest.
In addition to Fansheed and Kevin Durant, the people who signed up for the three-point contest this year include Paul Pierce and Ray Allen of the Celtics, James Jones of the Heat and Daniel Gibson of the Cavaliers.
Paul Pierce's career reached its peak in 2008, when he defeated Kobe Bryant and won the MVP trophy in the Finals. In recent years, the Celtics have been in the ranks of strong teams, but they have always been one step away from the championship.
Yao, this season, the Celtics' record has recovered and everyone is healthy, so Pierce and Ray Allen came together to participate in the three-point shooting contest.
Before the game started, he decided to copy the behavior of Celtics senior Larry Bird, so he staged this act.
When people recognized this guy as Pierce, a player immediately shouted to him: "Paul, this is not the 1980s. Here are three candidates for the competition. Which event do you want to win first place?"
Other players also spoke out.
Overall, it's quite polite.
Although this is the United States, the so-called land of freedom, these famous old superstars still have a transcendent status. If a newcomer walks in and makes such a fuss, he will definitely be punished miserably.
But these old superstars seem to be born with the privilege of 'joking'.
Durant curled his lips and said to Fan Xi: "I don't like this guy."
"opinionated."
he muttered.
At this time, Paul Pierce actually walked over. He went straight to Kevin Durant, ignored Fan Xi who was sitting next to Durant, and said to Durant: "Hey, my little Kevin.
You are my biggest competitor in this game, besides Ray. How have you been lately? Do you still want to drink Scarlett Johansson’s bath water? Hahahaha!”
Paul Pierce told Durant's scandal in public, which caused a lot of laughter in the locker room. Durant once publicly pursued Scarlett Johansson on social networks and said he was willing to drink the goddess Scarlett's bathwater.
It caused a lot of laughter in the NBA.
Pierce considers himself to be very humorous.
However, Durant stood up and pushed Paul Pierce: "Fuck you. I'm still licking your mother's donuts."
This time, Paul Pierce, the superstar, was angered. He rushed over like a bull and was about to overthrow Durant.
Fan Xi had an idea and secretly kicked the bench next to him. The bench quickly crossed over and blocked Pierce's path. Pierce kicked it and stumbled to the ground. He was in a very embarrassed state. He struggled to get up and continue to fuck Duran.
special.
At this time, other players quickly came over to break up the fight.
No one wanted a scandal to be exposed during such a fun All-Star weekend, especially Ray Allen, who deliberately pulled Pierce aside.
After all, Pierce finally calmed down.
He also realized the consequences of causing trouble during the All-Star Weekend, and David Stern would certainly not tolerate it. It was like David Stern carefully prepared a big turkey on Thanksgiving, and the whole family gathered together to eat it.
Pumpkin pie, but the naughty kid took out firecrackers and fried the turkey to pieces on the dining table. Could David Stern not pull out his belt and kill him?
Although Pierce didn't pursue him on the spot, he still said harsh words: "Kevin Durant, see you in the game!"
The feud between the two was finally forged.
Durant was not afraid at all. He lost a little weight in the fight, but when playing basketball, Durant felt that he could bring out everything Pierce had.
As the crowd gradually dispersed.
Durant raised an eyebrow at Fan Xi and smiled, then put his arm around Fan Xi's shoulders: "Jack, good brother."
Fan Xi deliberately acted dumb and said: What?
Durant smiled and punched Fan Xi: "You are a cunning guy. But you are really loyal and I like it very much. That kick you just made was so cool. You are worthy of being the first point guard of the new generation."
Durant saw Fanci's secret kick just now, and that was the reason why Pierce was frustrated.
And this kick also sublimated Kevin Durant's friendship with Fan Xi.
He said he would give Fan Xi a small gift.
Fan Xi didn't know much about small gifts, so she thought since it was a small gift, she would just accept it and return it when the time comes.
Night fell quickly.
On the second day of the All-Star Weekend, after the Masters Game and the Shooting Stars Game, we finally entered the highlight of the day.
Three competitions!
Slam dunk contest, skills challenge, three-point shooting contest.
This is the dessert sandwiched between the Rookie Game and the All-Star Game. Fans are also paying close attention to the three individual champions of the year.
For the contestants, this is also an honor that can be written on their resume.
Although actual combat is different from this kind of competition.
But if you are a three-point shooter and you have the crown of three-point king, you will naturally gain an advantage in bargaining contract negotiations.
And if you are the dunk king, you have the opportunity to gain an advantage in business negotiations... although the dunk contest in recent years has not been as good as every year.
As for the skills challenge, it seems to have become a reserved competition among top point guards.
It seems that winning the skills challenge can stabilize his status in the world.
The Three-Point Shootout Contest is the first of the three major competitions.
According to the order of the draw before the game, Fanshie played in fourth place, behind Durant, James Jones, and Ray Allen.
Just before the game started, Fan Xi saw a familiar figure.
Durant, standing next to him, then said: I saw it too.
Yes, Disney princess Selena and Hollywood sexy actress Scarlett Johansson were sitting on the sidelines, and they were right next to each other.
