The Fifth Point Guard

After the away game against the Kings, the Cavaliers returned home.

The next day, the team trained at the home stadium Gund Gymnasium.

On the court, the players are warming up and shooting at the moment.

"The Virgin Mary combination?" A strange look appeared on Shen Tong's face.

"That's right." James nodded heavily.

"The Virgin Mary?" Shen Tong asked again.

"Hmm." James raised his eyebrows.

Shen Tong held his forehead with one hand, closed his eyes, and looked speechless.

"But in fact, the fans gave us another nickname." James said.

"Oh? What is it?"

"'Gentlemen' combination."

"Gentleman? This is not bad, Shen Tong's 'Shen', with James'?"

Seeing Shen Tong looking at him with doubts, James smiled and said, "With my 'S', it's a 'gentleman' combination."

STO:"."

This nickname was given by a Chinese fan group, and they all use homonyms.

In this way, it seems that the "Madonna" combination is more "justifiable" than the "Gentleman" combination.

But from a personal emotional point of view, "Gentleman" is definitely more comfortable than "Madonna".

"LeBron, what do you think?" Shen Tong couldn't help asking.

James, who was warming up, threw the ball in his hand and made a "dang" sound without changing his expression.

"I think 'Gentleman' is pretty good, at least better than 'Our Lady'."

"But 'Shi' is homophonic after all." Shen Tong frowned slightly.

"Hey, Shin, don't say that, this 'gentlemen' combination is right."

"Oh?" Seeing that James seemed to have his own opinion, Shen Tong asked quickly, "How do you say it?"

James smiled and said: "Actually, I have always been very interested in Chinese culture. I know that there is an ancient poem in your country that reads like this, four is ten, ten is four, fourteen is forty, forty is fourteen, Therefore, Si is a gentleman, and the combination of 'gentleman' is correct."

"."

Shen Tong was shocked by James' words!

First of all, this is not an ancient poem.

Actually, the content is completely wrong.

However, four and ten do sound similar.

The reason why there is the tongue twister "four and ten" is that many people cannot distinguish the pronunciation of these two words at all when they pronounce them.

After thinking about it for a while, it seems that what James said makes sense.

Seeing James' beaming expression, Shen Tong smiled.

"LeBron, you're right, I think the names of both groups are very interesting."

James picked up the bounced ball, raised his hand and threw it, and the basketball and the basket made a crisp "dang" sound.

"I'm right." James said with a calm smile.

Regarding the nicknames of the combination of Shentong + James, there are even two factions on the Internet: "The Virgin" and "Gentleman".

These two waves of fans each have their own reasons.

But Shen Tong and James didn't care much.

Because through the first game, many experts have defined them as the most powerful duo in Cleveland sports history.

The youngest dual-core superstar in history!

This name is loud enough.

However, Shentong's girlfriend Avril Lavigne seems to prefer the nickname "Holy Mother", because not long after this nickname was circulated on the Internet, Avril Lavigne released a song of the same name called "Maria", which also became popular with the nickname.

Of course, the song itself is also very nice.

"Papa papa." Cavaliers coach Silas clapped his hands vigorously, signaling to everyone that he was going to speak, which is the same as the leaders clearing their throats.

The players stopped shooting and warming up.

"I just played a game with the Kings yesterday, so instead of doing intensive training today, let's just play an intra-team match."

As soon as Silas finished speaking, cheers rang out in the arena.

According to Silas's arrangement, Shen Tong and James did not play in the first training game, but acted as referees.

"Sometimes, observation is also a kind of training. You can look more at the habits or preferences of your teammates, so as to lead them better." Silas said with one arm around Shen Tong and the other around James.

In addition to Shen Tong and James, chief assistant Mark Osos ordered 10 players to play first.

Although it was just a training game within the team, everyone still played very seriously, and the physical confrontation was no less than the official game of the regular season.

But the side wearing the white home jersey quickly gained the upper hand.

You know, this side of the black away jersey has Boozer, McGinnis and Kapono's semi-main team.

So this scene surprised many people at the scene, including Shen Tong and James.

And the primary hero who led the white team to the lead was not Big Z, but the duo of Dajuan Wagner and Michael Stewart.

Ossos leaned over to Silas and said: "Dajuan only played five minutes in the first game, and Michael sat on the bench for the entire game."

Silas nodded and continued to focus on the game on the field.

Boozer's shot hit the iron, Big Z grabbed the rebound and handed it to Wagner, who performed brilliantly.

Wagner dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, facing the main point guard McGinnis without the slightest timidity.

With a wave of his hand, power forward Stewart immediately ran out to do a pick-and-roll for Wagner.

This simple two-man pick-and-roll has scored streaks before.

Wagner didn't pause and used Stewart's screen to shake off McInnis.

When facing Boozer, Wagner showed his fearless side. He directly used the speed hard bar, jumped under Boozer's chasing hat, straightened his arms to avoid the blockage, and scored!

After scoring Wagner and Stewart high five.

The pick-and-roll cooperation between the two is very tacit.

Although only 1.88 meters, Wagner played the game in the past few minutes like a large version of Allen Iverson.

Looking at Wagner, Shen Tong seemed to remember something.

This guy in front of him is the 100% madman who was famous all over the world back then!

In the same university as Derrick Rose, Wagner played only one season at the University of Memphis, broke the university's single-season scoring record, and won many first-team, best of the year honors and titles.

But it was his final year at Camden High that really made Wagner famous.

That year, Wagner averaged 42.5 points per game and scored 100 points in a game against Glochester College! Named Player of the Year by USA TODAY and also received the Naismith Player of the Year trophy.

In the 2002 draft, the Cavaliers selected Wagner with the 6th overall pick in the first round.

With his extraordinary speed and powerful scoring ability, Wagner was often compared with Allen Iverson, who was in full swing at the time.

In fact, Wagner's scoring method is somewhat similar to Iverson's.

This guy is definitely a talent, but why didn't he show it in the crowd?

Thinking of this, Shentong couldn't help turning his attention to Wagner again.

He and Stuart are standing side by side with their backs to Shentong.

Wagner's jersey number is 2, Stewart's jersey number is 13.

The combination of 213 made Shen Tong pay more respect to the duo.

Thanks for the reward that the big fat worm can't fly!
