Chapter 1073 The Most Passionate Dunk

Tang Tian didn't ask for an assistant, but after he got up, he didn't rush to dunk. Instead, he squatted down, untied his shoelaces, and then tied them again.

The scene footage was consciously focused on Tang Tian's shoes.

That is the most popular Coca-Cola Godfather joint sneaker.

Two batches of this sneaker have been distributed, and the last batch is left, which is also the largest batch.

But so far, no one has bought one of the ten pairs signed by Tang Tian.

This shot was a perfect close-up, and the vice president of Nike in the stands was laughing from ear to ear.

Nike did not ask Tang Tian to promote it in this way. After all, the word Tang Tian already trumped everything else.

It is obvious that Tang Tian took the initiative to give the sneakers exposure, and he is an absolute spokesperson of conscience.

It seems that in the near future, it will be time to talk about lifetime endorsement contracts.

Tang Tian finished tying his shoelaces and stepped on his feet to feel they were in place. He took the ball and started his first dunk.

Like LaVine, he starts from the baseline.

When he ran three meters away from the basket, he jumped into the air, but the way he soared was very special.

He was running facing the basket, but after jumping up, he turned 90° in the air, directly turning his back parallel to the basket.

And during the take-off process, his two hands, including the hand holding the ball, spread out.

This movement, if the legs are hooked again, it will be like a roc spreading its wings!

However, Tang Tian didn't hook his feet, and instead glided in the air for a while.

It feels like flying!

After the distance was enough, he turned 180 degrees in the air, dunked the ball with his right hand and smashed the ball into the basket!

Once successful, the action is completed in one go.

After the ball was smashed, the cheers on the scene erupted instantly.

This is a conceptual dunk, and the visual effect is so shocking.

The aerial skills and body coordination were also perfectly demonstrated.

In other words, this is a dunk that is both creative and difficult!

"God, this is a slam dunk like never before!"

Barkley exclaimed in the commentary box.

The creativity of this dunk is comparable to Carter's windmill.

The judges' table also quickly gave their scores.

50 points, no doubt.

This is the most handsome dunk among the four first dunks.

After Tang Tian dunked, all the dunks in the first round of the preliminaries were over.

Four deductions and three full points.

This result is definitely worthy of the fans' expectations.

“It’s destined to go down in history.”

In the commentary box, the always cautious Kenny Smith made a judgment in advance.

In this dunk contest that fans have been waiting for for a long time, the first dunk was exciting enough.

But this is obviously just the beginning.

The anxious score will only make the subsequent dunks more and more exciting.

For the second dunk, Carter still started.

The fans at the scene once again cheered for Carter.

Carter scored a perfect score for his first dunk with emotion, winning himself a good position.

But that is not enough to guarantee that he will win the championship. Even the emotion can only be used once. The emotion will be used again for the second dunk, not to mention the fans and the judges will not buy it.

At this time, it depends on what hard power Carter can come up with.

Carter obviously knows this too. It can be seen from the warm-up time before dunking that his dunk is definitely not easy.

He still chooses to run from the front three-point line, and he also takes off from a position three meters away.

After he jumped up, he stuffed the ball under his crotch and performed his trademark crotch dunk.

Just when some fans were disappointed that Carter was still showing affection, he made a second change of hands in the air after completing the crotch kick and before dunking!

This time, the difficulty and enjoyment of dunking suddenly increased.

But it's a pity that Carter is old after all, and his aerial endurance and body coordination have declined a lot compared to when he was young.

After switching hands to dunk the ball, it was no longer high enough, and he failed to complete the shot and dunk.

The scene was full of regret.

If this ball is dunked, it will definitely be a dunk.

But in the midst of regrets, Carter once again came to the three-point line.

Judging from his expression, he was ready to keep trying.

"Vince! Vince!"

The fans at the scene cheered Carter again.

Carter's second attempt, this time he dunked closer, but the height was still not enough, and the ball flew along the edge of the rim.

There were sounds of regret again, but soon turned into applause of encouragement.

Tang Tian and Raven stood up and applauded Carter.

It is incredible to appear in the dunk contest at the age of 41. Carter deserves all the applause for trying such a difficult dunk.

Even if he failed twice, even if he failed to dunk, Carter has won everyone's respect.

Carter came to the three-point line again.

According to the rules, only three deductions can be made in a round. This is Carter's last chance.

At this time, most people will choose to change their actions to ensure points.

Especially when you have already scored 50 points in the first dunk, if you score 40+ points, you still have hope of advancing to the finals.

After all, if you try to dunk again and fail, the score will basically be below 40 points.

At tonight's pace, they will definitely not make it to the finals.

However, Carter still walked to the same position, and it seemed that he still wanted to try the action just now.

There were cheers for Carter.

Regardless of the outcome, Carter's spirit is admirable enough.

Carter rushed up for the third time and dunked three times in a row. His physical exertion was not small.

But this time, he succeeded!

He finally hit the ball into the basket!

There were cheers everywhere and the fans raised their hands.

Carter finished at the final buzzer!

Carter, 41, did it!

This may not necessarily be the most exciting dunk, but it must be the most passionate.

"50 points! 50 points!"

Barkley set the pace in the commentary box.

The judges' scores are given.

It ended up being 45 points.

Although Carter's dunks were beautiful and passionate, the game still needs to be fair.

Carter only completed the dunk for the third time, which will definitely deduct points.

However, with 2 dunks and 95 points, Carter's dunk contest was exciting enough.

And he still has hope of reaching the finals.

The second one to appear was still Gordon.

He took a deep breath before going on the court, feeling a lot of pressure.

As the defending champion, the 47 points in the first dunk put him in the most dangerous position.

Although Carter's second dunk was a bit regretful, if he had his second dunk, he would not have scored more than 48 points.

Considering that Tang Tian and LaVine were behind him, he was basically eliminated early.

This may be the most stressful defending champion.

After taking a deep breath, he reached out to greet his companion, the Magic team's mascot.

There's something familiar about the mascot's stance.

Gordon charged in from the baseline, rose into the air and assumed a sitting position in the air.

The fans at the scene quickly realized that this was clearly the move Tang Tian had used in the previous dunk contest.

But even with the action, there was still a deafening cheer.

Gordon is a big man, so it is definitely more difficult than Tang Tian to complete this "sitting on the bench" dunk, and the visual impact is also stronger.

The moment the ball was smashed in, O'Neal jumped up from his seat.

He obviously admired Gordon's dunk very much.

50 points.

There was no suspense in the final score given by the judges. Gordon also got his first full score tonight on the second dunk!
