The Fifth Point Guard

When it comes to three-pointers, Shentong said he was second in the Nets, and no one dared to say that he was number one.

Since Shen Tong took over, Corey Kidders has been firmly nailed to the bench.

In fact, Kidders' shooting ability is not bad. In terms of three-pointers alone, Kidders is definitely enough as a shooter.

But in terms of explosive ability and ability to withstand pressure, Shentong is obviously better.

After Kidders hit a three-pointer, Shentong immediately returned a goal from the outside.

Hook your finger.

Boozer has not moved, Martin ran out first.

This shit!

Purely a natural reaction.

No Boozer pick-and-roll, Martin touches first to a screen.

Kidders, who defended Shentong, was stupid.

What's happening here?

"Hey, Kenyon, what are you doing? Are we on the side?" Kidders yelled.

Martin came to his senses.

But at this moment, Shentong has already left in the dust and got a chance to be vacant.

Although McGinnis' passing is not as accurate as Kidd's, it is also qualified.

Shen Tong aimed at the basket after receiving the ball.

Relax your knees, bend your arms slightly, and jump your legs.

Very easy open shot.

However, at the moment when the ball was released, Shen Tong instinctively noticed something strange.

"Snapped!"

Shen Tong clearly saw that the shot was destroyed by the Nets players from the side!

who is it?

Bald, number 24.

Richard Jefferson!

The Nets quickly launched a counterattack after getting the ball.

Kidd, Jefferson, Martin, the troika go hand in hand.

Kidd advanced to the free throw line and threw it into the air. Jefferson, who had just sent a block to Shentong, caught the cake with both hands and dunked successfully.

Facing Shen Tong, Jefferson smiled and said, "Shen, don't think that your opponent is only Corey, we are always watching you."

paused.

"Moreover, your every move is within our expectations."

STO:"."

Facing Kidders, Shen Tong stepped down to dribble and resorted to butterfly steps.

After more than half a season of tempering, Shentong has become quite proficient in this kind of large-scale crossover.

Kidders only resisted twice before being completely shaken by Shentong.

However, just as Shentong passed Kidders' defense, Kidd suddenly shot from the side and broke the ball in Shentong's hand with a palm.

The Nets took advantage of the situation to fight back.

This time it was Martin who ate the pie.

Kidd's back pass in the air fooled all the Cavaliers who retreated.

Including STO.

That's the power of the pass master.

The seemingly understated pass makes the offense very simple.

After receiving the ball, Martin raised his arms, grabbed the ball and dunked it into the basket!

The score on the court was 8-16.

The Cavaliers immediately called a timeout.

Shentong played as usual, but was repeatedly sabotaged by the Nets.

Sitting on the bench, Shen Tong wiped the sweat off his face.

The guy who used to pass the ball to himself becomes the opponent who cheated on him.

The guy who used to make the ball for himself became an opponent who helped defend him.

who used to formulate tactics for themselves

Now develop tactics specifically for the defense.

Kidd, Jefferson, Scott

Facing his old club, this game is a bit difficult to play.

In the studio.

Smith said: "This game is a test for Shentong. The opponent is the old club New Jersey Nets who is quite familiar with him. He has played under Byron Scott for two years, and he is with a point guard like Kidd. The partner, compared to Shentong's habits, scoring methods, running positions, etc., has a very thorough understanding and can defend very targetedly, which is very difficult."

Barkley agreed with Smith's words and said: "Yes, in fact, it can be seen from the progress of the game that they are simply hunting Shentong. When the Nets played halfway through the first quarter, they scored 16-8. Taking the lead, Shentong made 0 of 3 shots and failed to score a point. He was blocked by Jefferson once and was intercepted by Kidd once. It can be seen that the Nets have a very targeted tactical arrangement for him. Now it depends on how Shen can adapt. .”

Smith went on to say: "He must show people whether he has enough resilience and leadership ability without Jason Kidd. After all, when he was in the Nets, many people attributed Shentong's outbreak to Kidd's Pass."

Barkley nodded. "I believe that's why Shin left New Jersey for Cleveland."

Nets bench.

"Richard, you did a good job. The block just now was quite wonderful." Martin patted Jefferson on the back and praised.

Kidd reminded: "The game has just begun. We all know Shen's scoring ability. We must implement the defensive tactics arranged before the game. In addition, we must not relax our defense against LeBron."

Byron Scott encouraged everyone: "You have done a good job so far, and you have opened up the score in one go. We will go back with the victory and tell the media who are not optimistic about us. Without Shen, we are still an alliance. champion!"

Scott's words made the young people present nod their heads.

In terms of inspiration and motivation, Scott is still very good.

Cavaliers bench.

Silas was drawing some new tactics on the tactical whiteboard.

But Shen Tong couldn't help shaking his head slightly after seeing it. Although these tactics around him were new, they were the ones who implemented them after all.

Having been together day and night for two years, all my offensive habits, characteristics, and hobbies are well known to the other party.

Even if these tactics are combined into several, the opponent will immediately make targeted arrangements.

If you want to break through the encirclement of the Nets, you have to use some other methods.

"Hey, LeBron."

Shen Tong put down the towel, and suddenly called out to James who was sitting next door.

"Huh? What?"

James stopped drinking and asked over his head.

"wait for you"

"Uh-huh."

The game restarts.

Shen Tong dribbled the ball and passed Kidders, but was double-teamed by Jefferson and Kidd.

Before the Nets became a siege, Shentong immediately distributed the ball to the other side.

It's James!

James went straight to the penalty area after receiving the ball.

At this moment, there is an open field in front of James, with only Jason Collins under the basket.

"Fix the defense quickly."

Kidd and Jefferson immediately moved to the other side.

Just after James attracted everyone's attention, he suddenly distributed the ball to the outside again.

Shentong was unguarded at the moment.

"Oops." Kidd thought to himself.

How could Shentong hesitate when given the opportunity?

Raise your arms and shoot.

The ball crossed a high parabola in the air and fell into the net.

Fuck off!

After the goal, Shen Tong and James celebrated by high-fiving.

The home fans also cheered.

With the restraint of James, the defensive pressure faced by Shentong will be much easier.

When James held the ball again, the Nets did not choose to step forward to defend.

So James made a layup against Collins and scored 2+1!

This time the problem fell to the Nets.

Both James and Shentong are not a player who can defend alone on the Nets side.

Once the two form a tacit understanding, the Nets' defense will face a severe test.

Anti-Shentong, release James, or release Shentong, anti-James?

This conundrum urgently needs to be solved by Byron Scott.
