The scene was filled with astonishment.
"Could it be...?"
"Holy crap..."
"No way..."
"Awesome..."
The reason for bringing over another basketball hoop is to adjust the height of the basket.
The staff member measured it with a ruler...
Upon seeing the number, the host shouted, "Three meters and fifty-five inches! Brother Wei is going to challenge himself to dunk on a 3.55-meter hoop!"
The standard basketball hoop is 3.05 meters, but Wei Guo raised it by a full half meter.
There have always been rumors that Wei Guo can touch the top edge of the backboard, but no one has ever actually seen Wei Guo touch the top edge of the backboard.
The top edge of the backboard is 3.95 meters high.
If Wei Guo could dunk on a 3.55-meter-high rim, combined with his large hands, he might actually be able to touch the top edge of the backboard.
and...
3.55 meters, that's absolutely the limit of human dunking.
........
Wei Guo also took off his long clothes and trousers. He stood under the basket and jumped several times, trying to find his rhythm.
3.55 meters...
This was an idea that suddenly came to Wei Guo, and he wasn't sure if it would succeed.
Wei Guo is about to dunk. The only sound in the arena can be the sound of the basketball hitting the ground and bouncing. If Wei Guo actually completes this dunk, everyone in the arena will be a witness.
Standing near the three-point line, dribble until you are about a step away from the basket and then jump.
The body kept getting taller...
Just as Wei Guo's hair was about to touch the backboard, Wei Guo pressed his wrist down.
"bang~~~"
The basketball hit the inside of the rim and bounced away.
"well..."
A collective sigh rippled through the crowd as Wei Guo's first spike went wide.
The hoop was really high. It was the first time Wei Guo had ever dunked on such a high hoop. He needed to get a feel for it and find the right position for the hoop.
Although he missed the first dunk, it gave the audience hope. When Wei Guo dunked, his wrist was already above the rim, so he was fully capable of completing the dunk.
and...
This basketball hoop is placed next to a standard basketball hoop, creating a more direct sensory contrast.
The raised basketball hoop is only 40 centimeters shorter than a standard basketball hoop.
What does 40 centimeters mean?
An average adult male's span is about 20 centimeters, which is only two spans apart. From a distance, they are almost in a straight line.
"Phew~~~"
Wei Guo took a deep breath.
Having succeeded with the first attempt, I am full of confidence.
Wei Guo dribbled and attacked the basket again, taking a step away from the rim before jumping.
This time...
Wei Guo jumped even higher, and his body leaned back in an arc like the crescent moon on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
"Bang!!!"
With a flick of the wrist, the dunk was a success.
Wow~~~
All the players on the sidelines rushed onto the field.
"10 points!"
"10 points!"
"10 points!"
The fans raised up the sheets of paper with the number 10 in their hands.
Jordan: 10 points
Wilkins: 10 points
Weber: 10 points
Drexler: 10 points
O'Neal: 10 points
Without a doubt, Wei Guo's second dunk once again earned a perfect score of 50 points, which may be the highest dunk in human history.
........
The second dunks of the other three players need no further explanation; Kobe and Richardson were eliminated.
Wei Guo and Carter advanced to the final.
Wei Guo completed the longest and highest dunk in the preliminary round, thanks to his exceptional physical talent, as he could jump farther and fly higher than others.
Dunking requires not only physical talent, but also creativity and aesthetics.
Therefore, Carter is still confident about the final.
......
The final match begins.
Carter was the first to step up, and he brought in a teammate who was two meters tall to stand under the basket.
Jordan asked, "Is he going to fly over his teammates?"
"That's very creative."
Wilkins said, "Carter has done this move in a game before."
Wilkins was referring to Carter's "dunk of the century," a leaping dunk over a player that had never been seen before in the dunk contest. Carter's move was incredibly creative.
I saw...
Carter started his run from beyond the three-point line, jumped a step away from his teammate, and flew over his teammate's head with his legs spread apart.
"Bang!!!"
A powerful one-handed dunk sent the ball slamming into the basket.
Even Wei Guo stood up and applauded Carter for that spectacular dunk.
Next up is Wei Guo. Fans are also looking forward to Wei Guo's creativity. After all, Wei Guo has already achieved the longest and highest dunk in history. So what will his next dunk be like?
actually...
Wei Guo has many trump cards up his sleeve.
He had previously drawn some bronze-colored player cards, including a few rather special ones, such as the Fort Knight card and the Kilgane card. Wei Guo wasn't familiar with these names, but he learned some dunking techniques from them. Compared to most bronze-colored player cards, these cards were somewhat useful.
These names that Wei Guo is unfamiliar with may become well-known nicknames in a few years, such as Mr. 720 Degrees or White Jordan.
When it was Wei Guo's turn to go on stage, he didn't make any preparations.
It involves taking a running start from the bottom corner, jumping, spinning once in the air, then spinning again, and finally slamming the ball down with a reverse grip.
"Bang!!!"
The basketball was dunked into the hoop.
A 720-degree spin dunk!!!
"Holy crap..."
Iverson almost dropped the camera in his hand. Can someone really do a 720-degree dunk so easily?
Carter understood as soon as he saw that shot.
He lost...
For his second dunk, Carter chose to jump from just inside the free-throw line and powerfully dunk with both hands.
This was another spectacular play, but Carter had already made a similar move in the 2000 Slam Dunk Contest, so the judges weren't as impressed.
47 points!!!
As a result, Carter's second dunk only scored 47 points.
Now it's up to Wei Guo. If he can score another 50 points, he will become the Slam Dunk Contest champion.
"Defend the country!"
"Defend the country!"
"Defend the country!"
The fans chanted cheers to support the team.
......
Wei Guo strolled leisurely to the vicinity of the three-point line, dribbled towards the basket, and at the moment of jumping, threw the ball into the sky from behind.
immediately...
Wei Guo did a 360-degree turn in mid-air, retrieved the ball, and slammed it into the basket with one hand.
The routine was so fluid and difficult that Jordan suddenly turned and left the judges' panel.
"I'm not playing anymore~"
Jordan turned and walked towards the audience, saying, "I can't be a judge!"
Of course... Jordan was just expressing his shock in this way; he quickly answered the judges and gave them his score.
10 points!
10 points!
10 points!
10 points!
10 points!
Wei Guo once again received a perfect score of 50.
