Kobe Bryant's SMS lottery

In 2020, the NBA officially announced the all-star game system, except for "Xin Ge" and James. In memory of Kobe Bryant, who died before, the NBA revised the rules of the game. There is no time limit for the final, and the goal is 24 points. Breaking the traditional game mode, the NBA officially revised the all-star game system to pay tribute to Kobe. Under the new rules of the game, the first three quarters of the All-Star Game are scored separately. The score at the beginning of each game is 0-0, and the single game is still 12 minutes; The biggest change is the fourth quarter, and the last quarter will be an open challenge. Both sides will only challenge one goal to score, and the first one will win. How to set this target score? NBA officials especially thought of Kobe Bryant, who once wore the No.24 jersey, and collectively paid tribute to this legendary superstar. The target score will be the sum of the accumulated scores of the leading teams in the first three quarters and 24 points, and the score gap between the two sides in the first three quarters will still be directly reflected in the last quarter.

NBA officials announced that the all-star game system will be changed in 2020, when there will be many tributes to the seven victims, including Kobe Bryant and Jaina. Kobe's No.24 has also become an important element in the revision of the competition system. Official announcement! "All-Star Game" changed the game system, paying tribute to Kobe, and each section became a mini-game, with a charity prize of 500,000. The specific modification plan is that each section should become a charity game. The score will return to 0-0 before the second and third quarters. There is no time limit in the last quarter, and the team that reaches the target score first becomes the winner of the all-star game.

What's the target score? According to the official explanation, the leading score in the first three quarters plus 24 points is the target score. For example, in the first three quarters, the total score of both sides is 100-95, so the target score is 124. In the first three quarters, the leader will win 24 points and the laggard will win 29 points. Byron Pru, head of alliance operations, said: "We spent a lot of time thinking about the target score for the fourth quarter, and finally we decided that 24 was the most appropriate number." This is the third consecutive year that the league has adopted the captain system. James and the alphabet brothers will choose their team next week. The first three quarters are separate small-scale competitions, and the leading team in each quarter will receive a charity fund of $654.38 million. The decisive link is in the fourth quarter. In the absence of time during this period, the team that reaches the target score first becomes the final winner.

Officials also said that if the two sides draw lots in one quarter, the bonus from one quarter will be carried forward to the next. The winner of the competition won a charity fund of $200,000, so the total charity bonus of the whole competition is at least $500,000. If one party wins in four quarters, it will only get $400,000, and the remaining $6,543,800 will be given to the other party for charity activities. At present, this reorganization only applies to the 2020 All-Star Game. Spruer said that if the reorganization is successful, this practice may be maintained in future all-star games.
