Macron, 2023 All-Star dunk king.
— Saved this year’s dunk contest, and it may not be this year.
— And it may open a new road for the dunk contest and even the All-Star weekend.
When he was invited, he was still developing the alliance and glanced at it: white, 188cm tall, 188cm arm show, standing and touching 7 feet 10 High, which is not good in any way.
But when it flew, it was amazing.
In the past, the arm show that restricted mcgonn’s basketball career may become his selling point instead. When I saw his last button, I thought: if it was the peak Lavin or Gordon, I could probably try this action-but they were much taller than Macron.
His dunk video had already been circulated before. 720 degrees, spinning windmill does not look at the basket reverse buckle, and so on, but today on the big stage:
“The little man from the Development League, Ling Yue, has become the star of NBA”.
Good process, good story.
And this kind of story is interesting enough-dunk contest, is it just for fun?
In 1976, ABA held the first dunk contest, not for any serious purpose, but for fun.
At that time, ABA prided itself as a fancy and street-style entertainment Alliance. The first card was Dr. J of afro. At that time, it was “a bit like college basketball, but more ferocious” (Jerry si Long said) and “The era of explosive scoring in 1960 s is over, and everyone attaches importance to defense” (Jerry West said) NBA. Iceman tried 360-degree dunk attempt. Skywalker played big windmill. At last, Dr. J’s freethrow line dunk shook the whole audience.
The Iceman later went to NBA to win the four-time scoring king. Skywalker and he fought for the scoring king in 1978 and scored 73 points in a single game. Dr. J couldn’t mention more. Now the NBA dunk contest, I’m afraid I can’t get such a big team. No other:
At that time, there were few basketball tricks, and stars were happy to end up entertaining the public.
What’s the point of the dunk contest?
It’s meaningless, it’s good-looking!
NBA held the All-Star dunk contest in 1984. At that time, Dr. J attended at the age of 34 and lost to Larry Nance’s big windmill.
From another angle: Dr. J, as a dunk ancestor, did not say that he would love his feathers.
It was indeed a time of Universal Entertainment.
Digression: Also in 1984, Stern took office and Jordan entered the business. As we all know, it is one of the most important years in NBA history.
In the dunk contest in the 1980’s, there were also stars. Jordan, Wilkins and Glider played back and forth. Jordan and Wilkins even smelled of gunpowder in those years.
The 170-cm potato Weber played the small dunk to the extreme, playing his 360-degree turn buckle and the air receive the ball reverse buckle.
Jordan made the final blow in the dunk contest in 1987. His body tilted almost parallel to the floor, flying into a horizontal line, cutting directly to RIM, “kissing rim” buckle; In 1988, he finished the “kiss rim” after stretching the ball in the air, and then the famous free throw clasp.
Dominic Wilkins finished throwing the ball and playing board in 1988, took off before freethrow line, folded buckles in half, and then the famous Full Moon windmill.
The aesthetics of small people, flying and violence have all been achieved by them.
So everyone started to use the equipment:
In 1986, Gerard Wilkins flew a chair with a freethrow line dunk.
In 1991, Di Brown won the championship with a dunk blindfolded by his left hand.
Sebalos used cloth strips to cover his eyes in 1992 and made a blind buckle.
In 1996, blunt Barry became the dunk king-freethrow line after he took off the button, he untied his coat and revealed the words: “White people can also fly”.
By the 21st century, it was all we were familiar with. Tribute and fancy were mixed:
Fly over Weber on Nate Robinson; Wright Howard wear a Superman cloak dunk; Cross the Wright dunk on Nate Robinson; Blow candles and light feet dunk on Gerald Green; Griffin speed dunk; Mickey buckle double rim.
There are more and more patterns, but freshness is also easy to pass.
Generally, Carter and Francis in 2000 and Lavin vs Gordon were the glorious years of the 21st century dunk contest: They — personally, I think, in addition, in the two years when Richardson won the championship, his dunking was not the best, but his determination to challenge the difficulty was really the only thing at that time-it was only by itself without using gimmicks, with different styles, the fight against wonderful scenes.
However, such a good dunk contest also depends on the years: Carter, Lavin and Gordon, who are young and strong and have a heart, are not available every year after all; Superstars are not as willing to play in the 1980’s; fancy gimmicks were rendered aesthetically tired by Dwight and Nate.
Where can I find it?
Therefore, it is a good phenomenon and a good direction to win the championship this year:
Don’t frame too much, don’t be limited to the NBA30 team; NBA is not fresh, look for the Development League.
Maybe even push further?
Can it even be not limited to the dunk contest?
In net blazer, the skills competition, the development alliance or even the folk marksman? Those who are skilled, but because of the short board-mostly the talent of physical confrontation-can’t play NBA, please come?
To put it bluntly, think clearly:
On the All-Star weekend, is it to stick to the rules or to all rivers in the sea, and try to focus on what everyone likes to watch?
Think about these fancy performances of all-star weekends, it was not difficult to compete; Usually, everyone plays games, load management and data control, which have been very careful, and it is rare to have a slightly loose stage, you can do whatever you want to do.
After all, before 1984, there was no dunk contest in NBA, and all this was actually from scratch until today.
At the beginning of the dunk contest, J-Boers were not afraid of success or failure. The next stage was full of energy and ability to play, just to entertain the public; Jordan and Wilkins, the stars of the scoring level, went to the dunk contest, fighting against Weber’s substitute, let everyone have fun.
According to the original intention of All-Star weekend, you have to let everyone love it first-let’s talk about everything else.
If the All-Star weekend has no entertainment value, the big players refuse to come, and the younger brother can’t play. Every year, he knows that he is boring and has to pretend to be very prosperous. If he says he is entertaining the public, he is actually familiar with his face and perfunctory. What does that mean?
