Chapter 7: Ordinary task


   Larry Bird in 1986 was at the pinnacle of his NBA career. This year, the Celtics and he were at their best.
   They will win the best record in the regular season and get the championship.
   Bird will also be crowned MVP in the regular season and MVP in the finals again, pushing his basketball career to the highest peak.
   This all-star three-point contest is just an episode of his peak years.
  Even so, this coquettish and confident white player still left the classic "scramble for second" quote.
   In the locker room, everyone else was there stunned. After all, Bird knew that if you turn your back on it, you will have to humiliate yourself.
  Only Li Liang mumbled: "I am here to fight for the first."
  Li Liang thought it would be like the last mission, no matter what he said, NPC would not respond.
  Unexpectedly, Bird looked at Li Liang and said, "The first is here, I think the second is more suitable for you."
   Byrd actually spoke to himself. Of course, Li Liang would not be afraid in the system, and he sneered: "Sorry, there is no second word in my dictionary."
   "OK, let's see the real chapter on the field, the unnamed boy." Byrd looked a little angry, and directly called Li Liang the unnamed boy.
  Li Liang didn't look back because he noticed that another line of words popped out of the system in front of him, [anger value +20, from Larry Bird]
   It turns out that this anger value can also be obtained in the system. It seems that this all-round king training ground is really opened.
  Li Liang is now looking forward to what kind of reward he can get after completing this task.
  Maybe such rewards can be redeemed at the redemption center.
  After fighting in the locker room, I still want to see the real chapter on the court.
  The staff went into the locker room to greet everyone for the warm-up.
  The 1986 three-point contest was the first time for the NBA All-Star Weekend, so many of the league's shooting experts want to participate.
   Danny Angie and others like the Celtics, want to participate in this competition, the result was ignored by the league.
  In Stern's eyes, the real favorite is none other than Larry Bird.
   Bird also lived up to expectations. Since 1986, three consecutive three-point contests have won the championship, making a legend of the three-point contest.
   And Li Liang’s mission is to destroy the legend, which is obviously not a simple matter.
A total of 8 people participated in the three-point contest, except Bird, Dallas Lone Ranger Dale Ellis, Golden State Warriors Eric Floyd, Milwaukee Bucks Craig Hodges, Los Angeles Clippers guard Nome Nixon, Chicago Bulls' Kylie Massey, New York Knicks guard Trent Tucker, Washington Bullets (later Wizards) Leon Wood.
   Of course, an additional Li Liang who came in through the back door was added to the mission, reaching 9 people.
   Everyone else is wearing their own team uniform or sports jacket, only Li Liang is wearing a white jersey without any logo.
  The standard configuration of the 1980s, small vests, shorts, stockings and Converse shoes, this system is quite careful.
  Because there is one more person, the game is conducted in three rounds, with 9 in the first round and 5 in the semifinals, and 2 in the semifinals, then the final.
  Like the following three-point contest, five in five positions, the last of which is a flower ball, a common ball 1 point, a flower ball 2 points, a full score of 30 points.
   When Li Liang saw the requirements of this task, he knew that the difficulty was not small, and he wanted to defeat Bird.
  Although the two will not have direct confrontation, they can confront such a historical superstar such as Bird and the king of rubbish, psychological pressure can be imagined.
   Moreover, the atmosphere at the scene is extremely realistic, no difference from the real environment.
  The Dallas Reunion Arena is different from the 1950s old-style arena.
   The NBA in 1986 has entered modern basketball and began to be broadcast live on TV. There is a large electronic screen above the stadium, which can accommodate more than 20,000 spectators. The floor is waxed and polished, and the atmosphere is warm. The difference from the current NBA stadium is very small.
  Under such an atmosphere and pressure, it will test people's psychological quality and live performance.
  Li Liang knew that this was a fake, but thought that he would stand on such a court in the future, his heart was still a little tight.
   The first round will start soon, Li Liang is in the last appearance, this is a good position, he can wait for everyone else to vote, see the score to vote.
  The NBA only introduced the three-point line in 1980. At that time, the three-point was just a speculative scoring method, and it has not yet become an important tactic.
   In 1986, when the NBA players were playing, they had played basketball without a three-point line since they were young, so shooting a three-pointer is a new thing.
   Among them Bird is already the leader.
  He made 82 of 194 three-pointers in 82 games in a season, hitting 42%. His shooting rate is quite high today, but the number of shots is far from the current one.
   And the others are even worse, like the veteran champion guard who once played for the Lakers like Noam Nixon, he threw 100 three-pointers throughout his career to participate in the three-point contest, purely to catch the duck on the shelf.
   As expected, Nixon, Wood, Freud, Messi and others, 25 goals, some of them can't finish in a minute, let alone score.
   while Tucker and Ellis performed well, scoring 19 and 17 points respectively, Bird's average performance was only 16 points.
   Bucks Craig Hodges was shocked in the first round of four seats, directly hit a 25-point high score!
   This is really the peak of his debut. In the first round of the first three-point contest, Hodges scored 25 points.
   This record has been maintained until 2012, and all subsequent players can only keep the same and cannot break this score.
   Byrd looked stunned, Li Liang's eyes widened, this Hodges looked mediocre, the person was thin, and the shooting was so accurate.
  Li Liang didn't know enough about history. This Hodges later went to the Bulls and played a key role in the Bulls' first three consecutive championships.
   And like Bird, he won the three-point contest for three consecutive years from 1990 to 1992, and he was also a three-point madman.
   Finally, it was Li Liang's turn. He took a deep breath and stood at the first shot. He looked at the timekeeper beside him on the left corner, ready to start his challenge.
Timing begins!
   One minute, 25 shots are thrown at five points, which is more difficult than most people think.
  Li Liang's shooting foundation is quite good. Like most Chinese players, although his physical fitness is average, the shooting feels soft and the technical moves are in place.
   Usually training Li Liang is the most practiced shot, so he can keep 100% free throws in the NCAA field, his shooting base points are also very high. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
   But the NCAA three-point line is not the same as the NBA. The NCAA three-point line uses the old FIBA ​​standard, which is 6 meters 25, while the NBA has a base angle of 6 meters 71 and a top of 7 meters 24.
   For long shots, every extra meter is a big difference.
   Of course, Li Liang realized this early, so he usually trains for super three-pointers, so the NBA three-point line is not so difficult.
   He started to take the ball. His shooting was quite standard. The standard one-handed shot, the right hand shot, the left hand to support the ball, the knee slightly curved, passed the leg power to the hand, and the ball was thrown out.
   "1 point, 2 points, 3 points, 4 points, flower ball... Unfortunately, no hit."
   The first point of Li Liang's good shot is that this ABA's dribble is a bit slippery and not very good.
   The second point, Li Liang got 3 points, the third point, got 3 points, already 10 points, and finally there are two points.
   At this time, Li Liang felt a little wrong. First of all, his continuous shots made his physical fitness decline, but this is not the most critical. He found that the shooting time seemed to be insufficient!
   "Oops, it's too late." Li Liang had watched several people overtime and didn't finish the vote. Now he knows by himself that one minute passes quickly.
  In a hurry, Li Liang accelerated his shooting speed, and as a result the movement was somewhat deformed, and the hit rate plummeted.
   The fourth point didn't enter any one, and the last point, three enters the next round, 13 points.
   As a result, at the last point, when he made two shots and had two left, the time was up and he only got 12 points.
   He was tied for fifth with another person, and as a result both of them were eliminated and missed the next round.
   [Unfortunately, the mission failed, please continue to work hard]
