Chapter 377 Wang Xiucheng's first dunk in the final, a 3.5-meter-high basket!
Many people know that Wang Xiucheng and Bruno are friends.
So it's not a big deal that Wang Xiucheng came over, gave Bruno a high-five and a hug, and then sat down in Bruno's seat.
At this moment, all the lights in the venue went out, except for Bruno's stage lights which flickered.
In the darkness, Wang Xiucheng sat down and leaned his body slightly forward.
Jin Zhen watched as Wang Xiucheng walked over.
Even though it was very dark at the scene, she could still recognize Jin Zhen and Wang Xiucheng's appearance, even if it was just a silhouette.
Combined with the scent emanating from Wang Xiucheng, she could recognize the man even with her eyes closed.
"Did you miss me?" Wang Xiucheng asked, tilting his head.
Wang Xiucheng's voice wasn't loud, but Jinzhen still heard it.
So Jinzhen softly hummed in agreement.
Wang Xiucheng extended his hand and grasped Jin Zhen's hand, "Me too."
The sudden movement startled Jinzhen, who tried to pull her hand back but couldn't.
Fortunately, the chair back is large enough that people behind won't notice it.
Wang Xiucheng scratched Jin Zhen's palm. "I'm leaving tonight to take care of some things in Saudi Arabia. I'll come back to be with you."
Jin Zhen nodded.
Although she was a little sad, Wang Xiucheng had his own things to do, and she couldn't keep him tied down forever.
The short five-minute break ended quickly.
When the stadium lights came on again, Wang Xiucheng was already standing a few meters away from Jin Zhen on the court, slowly bouncing the ball to keep his body warm.
The final battle is about to begin.
Bruno came back and gave Wang Xiucheng a high five.
The height comparison between the two is somewhat amusing.
Bruno, however, seemed completely unconcerned. He sat down and clapped, muttering something that appeared to be cheering on Wang Xiucheng. Before meeting Wang Xiucheng, Bruno rarely even attended football games, let alone sang live.
But ever since he met Wang Xiucheng, Bruno seems to have forgotten the fact that he is only a little over 1.6 meters tall.
McCroon was also dribbling the ball in a corner when the host began to introduce the format of the final match.
It's actually quite simple: two rounds, the player with the higher score is the champion, and if the scores are tied, a tiebreaker is played.
According to the reverse score order, McCroon went first.
Wang Xiucheng grabbed the ball and returned to the waiting area to sit down.
McClung stood in the middle of the field and took a deep breath.
The stadium, which had been noisy just seconds before, gradually quieted down.
The NBA stars in the front row were also waiting quietly, some standing and some sitting.
Everyone knows that whether or not this performance can bring some strength to Wang Xiucheng depends on this one.
If McCollum can't complete it, or if the dunk isn't good enough.
What Wang Xiucheng will bring out will likely be old material from previous performances.
Only when McCroon put enough pressure on Wang Xiucheng could Wang Xiucheng show his true abilities.
McCroon called out to someone from the crowd nearby.
Then they had this person hold a basketball on their head and stand on the line of the restricted area.
McClung retreated to the sideline and took another deep breath.
Then, McCroon suddenly started.
He rushed to the basket, jumped over the man, and caught the ball with both hands.
Then McCronl rose, and the basketball in his hand also moved upwards.
However, the basketball, which had been moved halfway, was moved downwards by McCollum, and after moving about ten centimeters, it was moved upwards again.
This time, there seemed to be no further pauses. As McCollum reached the highest point, he slammed the basketball into the basket with both hands behind his back.
call!
The entire stadium erupted in cheers!
McCollum seemed to hover in the air for a moment before folding twice before finally slamming the basket into the hoop.
The star players in the front row came over one by one to give McCollum a high-five.
Giannis Antetokounmpo held his phone close to his face, recording Michael Lang.
James and Curry were also generous with their praise for the dunk, and they both gave McCollum high-fives and chest bumps.
Everyone knows it's safe!
It's not that McCollum has a guaranteed championship.
Rather, it's McCollum's dunk that will definitely put pressure on Wang Xiucheng.
McCollum was also very satisfied with his dunk.
He also held up two fingers, as if to say it was a double-fold dunk.
Thanks to his reminder, when the replay was shown on the big screen, some fans who hadn't seen it clearly before were able to see that McCollum had actually done a double-fold dunk.
In the amateur dunking community, this dunk has another interesting name: "wiping the window".
This action requires a high level of skill, both in terms of airtime and the speed of the "window wiping" motion.
The five judges quickly gave their scores.
50 points, full marks.
That was an impeccable dunk.
This also means that Wang Xiucheng, who will be the next to appear, must show his true skills.
Applause began to erupt, and gradually, some people started calling out Wang Xiucheng's name.
Everyone began to anticipate how Wang Xiucheng would respond.
McCollum completed his first dunk.
At this moment, a dozen burly men suddenly appeared on the scene.
Both the NBA stars and the fans in the stadium were somewhat confused, not knowing what they were going to do.
The answer was soon revealed.
These people actually pushed the basketball hoop away, and then pushed another basketball hoop over from a distance.
Furthermore, the basketball hoop is movable.
Under the watchful eyes of nearly 20,000 fans, these people pushed the basketball hoop back to its original position, secured it, and then brought over a large ladder and placed it under the basket.
Several staff members were adjusting the setup below, and soon the basket began to rise slowly.
Instantly, the fans in the stadium understood.
Was Wang Xiucheng dissatisfied with the original basketball hoop because it was too low?
James, Curry, and even Doncic, who wasn't really in the shot, and Jokic, who was secretly drinking Coke, all had expressions of utter disbelief.
Because the height of that basketball hoop has risen to at least 3.4 meters!
This is fucking ridiculous!
Is Wang Xiucheng going to dunk with a rim that high?
But that's not all yet.
A staff member slowly climbed the ladder, pulled out a huge measuring tape from his person, released it, and instantly one end of the tape slid to the ground.
The staff member gestured for a moment, and then even raised his hand to the people below.
It seems to be saying that the height is insufficient.
Then, to everyone's astonishment, the basketball hoop continued to rise.
A camera was pointed closely at the measuring tape, on which the staff had marked the height with a pen: "3.5 meters"!
I grass!
At that moment, many people cursed inwardly!
Does Wang Xiucheng not want others to play?
Faced with absolute height, any skill is superfluous!
If Wang Xiucheng can dunk in a 3.5-meter basket, he won't need to do anything else.
This is the power to overcome all techniques!
The basketball hoop finally stopped at a height of 3.5 meters!
At this moment, Shaquille O'Neal, who is 2.16 meters tall, even walked to the basket and stretched out his hand to measure.
His fingers were still a long way from the basket.
O'Neal looked up at the height of the basket and gave up the idea of jumping up to try.
This scene was also transmitted to televisions in thousands of households via signal.
After finishing all that, the staff began to pack up the ladders and other tools, and then went downstairs.
Only then did Wang Xiucheng stand up, clutching the basketball.
Everyone looked at Wang Xiucheng with strange expressions.
It seems to be asking, "Are you serious?"
Wang Xiucheng smiled, holding a basketball in his hand, which he had specially chosen beforehand.
For some players, the feel of a basketball is different.
The tread pattern of the basketball, the amount of air it's inflated, the degree of wear...
These factors will distinguish one basketball from another.
This basketball is the one that Wang Xiucheng feels has the best feel to play with.
It was the same basketball he used to score two 50-point games before.
The area gradually quieted down, and everyone looked at Wang Xiucheng.
Jennie and Jisoo held hands, both seeming a little nervous.
Olsen clasped his hands together, muttering something to himself.
Scarlett's hands were clenched so tightly that she didn't even feel her nails digging into her flesh.
Stuart kept taking deep breaths, seemingly even more nervous than Wang Xiucheng.
In fact, Wang Xiucheng was indeed a little nervous.
It wasn't because of the tension of the competition, but because if I could get another 50 points this time, my system points would triple!
That's 8 points!
How could I not be nervous!
