The Fifth Point Guard

Wagner held the ball outside, and Miller's defense was impeccable.

After stepping down the dribble, he wobbled a few times, but couldn't get past Miller's defense.

"Dajuan, don't hold the ball for too long!"

Hearing Shentong's cry, Wagner immediately passed the ball to Shentong on the other side.

After Shentong received the ball, he went straight to the hinterland of the Nuggets.

After suffering the loss of the goal just now, this time Anthony did not abandon James and went to defend Shentong.

Facing Camby's supplementary defense, Shen Tong didn't force it, but made a pass behind his head after the jump!

Just when Anthony lamented how bold the pass was, James didn't know what suddenly appeared at the moment the ball fell.

Missed someone? !

Nene was separated by Shentong in front and couldn't start to block the shot. He could only watch helplessly after James caught the ball and succeeded in picking the basket from close range!

Two consecutive offenses were completed by Shentong assisting James!

Nuggets coach Jeff Bzdelik was very cautious and called a timeout immediately.

"Guys, keep focused on defense at all times, and there must be no leakage. Also, pay attention to supplementing defense at all times, and remember that we are a team."

Bzdelik stood in front of the Nuggets and spoke loudly.

But Anthony shook his head slightly.

He whispered to Andre Miller and Voshan Leonard beside him: "Basketball is about scoring more points than anyone else. After all, physical strength and energy are limited. We will still play according to the previous summer league. 7 Offensive points, conservative 3 points, sure, we are still ahead, Jeff is too sensitive."

Leonard also responded in a low voice: "Most of Jeff's coaching energy is only in college. In the NBA, this is only his second year in the Nuggets. In terms of experience, he is actually not much different from us."

Miller was drinking an energy drink and didn't say a word.

Anthony glanced at Miller and said, "Andre, I feel good today, pass the ball to me more."

Miller put down his drink and nodded.

Bzdelik didn't notice the small movements of the three on Anthony's side, and has been sparing no effort to draw the next tactics on the whiteboard.

Anthony wiped his sweat with a towel, feeling a little irritable in his heart.

How many times have these tactics been said, and I have already memorized them by heart.

"what--"

Anthony even yawned.

Bzdelik put the cap on the paintbrush, tapped on the tactical board and said loudly, "Do you understand?"

"Understood!"

Two loud voices suddenly sounded from behind Anthony, startling Anthony who was drinking water.

Anthony, who had been choking for a long time, came back to his senses and found that at some point, Shen Tong and James were squatting behind the bench for the Nuggets.

"you."

Before the Nuggets could react, Shen Tong and James stood up quickly.

Shen Tong: "How could you go in the wrong direction?"

James: "It's all your fault, I followed you."

Shen Tong: "Did you understand everything just now?"

James: "I didn't understand, but I saw the tactics."

Shen Tong: "Very good."

Nuggets: ─━_─━

Anthony holds the ball.

"Despicable, to eavesdrop on our tactics!"

James smiled.

Shen Tong on the side said loudly: "What is eavesdropping? It's so ugly, Jeff's voice is so loud, LeBron and I really have to listen."

Not in the mood to fight oral sex with Shentong, Anthony began to prepare for a back-to-back single against James.

In fact, since the first quarter, he has done quite well in individual singles.

And Bzdelik's tactics basically revolve around him.

At the moment when Anthony dribbled the ball with his left hand and leaned against James to attack, the ball shot by his left hand did not bounce.

Looking back, Wagner of the Cavaliers has run away like a wild horse!

This is a sneak attack steal.

Wagner's dribbling speed is quite fast, and he quickly came to the basket.

Facing Leonard's block, Wagner was not afraid at all.

hard.

Just go hard.

"puff"

The sound of thugs.

But Wagner's quick layup still hit.

This is a 2+1!

After scoring the goal, Wagner roared loudly, causing the fans at the scene to scream excitedly.

As soon as Wagner came on the court, the situation of the Cavaliers immediately changed suddenly.

After making a free throw, the Cavaliers chased the score to 20-21.

There are 15 seconds left in the first quarter.

Miller dribbled the ball upfield and found Anthony's eyes blazing.

"Give me the ball!"

Even the assist king of the alliance can only choose to surrender under this kind of lust.

Anthony stuck James, turned around after holding the ball and prepared to attack the basket.

The moment he just finished turning around, Wagner's ghostly hand attacked again.

But this time, Anthony was prepared.

He hugged the ball with both hands and avoided Wagner's steal.

"hey-hey."

Anthony smiled.

"The same move will not work for me, Cameron."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Tong didn't know when he would come out again.

A shot from the bottom up directly sent the racket in Anthony's hand flying.

James has quick eyes and quick hands, and immediately jumped up and hit the ball forward.

Miller and Leonard are very fast.

But there was one person whose footsteps seemed to be hanging.

"whoosh"

It's over.

Wagner came from behind, passed Miller and Leonard, and took the lead in getting the ball from James to the frontcourt, facing the basket, and flew directly.

"This is me, Percentager, Dajuan Wagner!"

The chasing Miller and Leonard completely became the background board.

Wagner, who is 1.88 meters tall, completed a one-handed snap!

"drop"

It's time for the first quarter.

After the timeout, the Cavaliers played a 9-0 spurt, came from behind 22-21, and overtook the score.

When Anthony returned to the bench, he was so angry that he threw the towel handed by the staff directly to the ground.

No one from the other Nuggets dared to say anything.

It's not that Anthony is losing his temper, but Anthony's background, which no one dares to mess with.

He was in a fit of anger, and going to make trouble for others right now, isn't that just looking for smoke.

On the other side, Wagner, who had transformed into a surprise soldier, received a royal salute.

James himself relieved Wagner's shoulders.

Eric Williams and Tony Batty were alone, helping Wagner relax his hands and legs.

Shen Tong stood aside and watched everything with a smile.

The current Wagner is very similar to his previous self.

In the current young Cavaliers team, Shen Tong actually hopes to see more Wagner stand up.

In the live broadcast room, Barkley's saliva almost sprayed onto the camera.

"Kenny, do you know this Dajuan Wagner? I noticed him as early as when he was in high school, and I wondered just now, who is this, who has such a powerful explosive power, and then I saw him , isn't this Dajuan?"

Smith said, "Is that the 100% player from the University of Memphis?"

Barkley nodded quickly and said, "That's right, that's him. It is said that this player found some physical problems during the pre-draft physical examination, but the Cleveland Cavaliers still signed him out of talent. From one game to the next, he doesn't seem to have a problem with his body."

Smith said: "I also checked the relevant information of this player. It turns out that Dajuan Wagner was the main sprinter of the school track and field team before playing basketball. No wonder he was so fast every time he sprinted for a fast break. .”

Barkley said: "Yeah, I watched him go fast, and felt like he couldn't stop the car. It turned out that he was a sprinter before."

Smith said: "In addition to Shin and LeBron, Cleveland has such a potential player. This game is interesting."

Barkley said: "That's right, his appearance changed the trend of the game. It's not an exaggeration to say that he was a surprise player in the first quarter."

In the second quarter, Wagner continued his brilliant performance.

First, he assisted Boozer to make a successful mid-range shot, and then passed the ball to Ilgauskas under the basket, causing Nene's basket thug to foul.

Not long after, he made a quick stop and made a jumper.

For a while, Wagner's name began to resound in the mouths of the fans.

In the case of a dead ball, Shentong, James, and Wagner stood together and seemed to be exchanging tactics.

Anthony learned one by one, and came behind the three of them in a ignorant manner.

After listening to the conversation between these three people for a while, Anthony was a little confused.

Anthony: o((⊙﹏⊙))o

Shen Tong: "First this, then that, and finally this, do you understand?"

James and Wagner nodded again and again.

Anthony: Is this motherfucker speaking human language?

Anthony walked away with a confused look on his face.

Miller greeted him.

Miller: "Did you hear that?"

Anthony: "I heard everything."

Miller: "What are they going to do next?"

Anthony: "I don't know."

Miller: "."

After all, Wagner is recovering from a serious illness.

The health value has just recovered from 62 to 82, so there is still some impact on physical strength.

And Shentong's shooting touch in this game is completely out of shape.

Speaking from Shentong's own feelings, I feel that my hand feeling has been stuck at the lower limit of the attribute today and has remained motionless.

When Silas replaced Wagner and Shentong with McGinnis and Kapono to rest, the Cavaliers struggled again.

Without Wagner's offensive containment and human breakthrough connection, as well as Shentong's passing and attracting defense, the Cavaliers, with James as the core of the offense, scored 2 points only by free throws for a period of time.

Anthony even made 3 of 4 shots during this period, and once again played a kaleidoscope-level offense.

At the end of the first half, the Nuggets led the Cavaliers by 5 points 49-44.

Shen Tong looked at the sweating James and knew that this guy had tried his best.

The current James shooting is not stable, and the offensive method is mainly based on the inside attack close to the basket.

But the Nuggets' inside line is a very strong combination.

If you want strength, there is Nene, a Brazilian who is a practitioner of the "Half-Sunflower Collection".

For flexibility, there's the bouncer, Marcus Camby.

If you want James to have enough space to score, you must widen the space on the court and contain the opponent's defense.

Wagner did a good job on this point today, but he has some physical problems and cannot contain the audience.

And my feeling today is not right.

How should this be done?

During the half-time break, Shentong still failed to come up with a reasonable solution.

Today's situation is indeed a new test for Shentong.

In the original task, what Shentong has to do is mainly to solve the problem with itself as the main body.

But this time, the target became someone other than himself.

Nuggets here.

Bzdelik asked the assistant: "Who were the Cavaliers' top three scoring players in the first half?"

The teaching assistant checked the technical statistics.

"The first is Wagner, who scored 12 points, the second is James, who scored 11 points, and the third is Boozer, who scored 6 points."

"How many points did you get?"

"Well, let me see, it's 4 points. Moreover, he missed all 4 three-pointers in the first half, and all 4 points he got were free throws."

"Well." Bzdelik nodded and said, "It seems that Shen's hand feeling is not in shape today, which is a good thing for us. In the second half, we mainly mark Wagner and James. As long as we limit them, the victory is bound to be our!"

The second half begins.

The Nuggets really stepped up their defense against James and Wagner.

The Cavaliers' offense was almost at a standstill.

Wagner's breakthrough was double-teamed by Miller in the back and Camby in the front, so he had to pass the ball to the outside.

After James played, he dribbled past Anthony behind his back, but he also encountered Nene's supplementary defense.

Seeing that the time was about to reach 24 seconds, James caught a glimpse of a vacancy in Shentong from the corner of his eye.

The ball was passed under the pressure of time, and Shentong had almost no time to adjust after receiving the ball.

Look at the basket and raise your hand to shoot.

This hasty shot without any preparatory action made a hollow shot through the net!

This is Shentong's first sports goal in this game!

The DJ on the scene shouted vigorously, calling on the fans to cheer for Shentong's goal.

Deafening cheers immediately erupted in the Gund Arena.

Shen Tong raised his hand and clenched it into a fist.

I control my own life.

The turning point of the feeling begins with this ball!

"when"

It seems that the turning point did not come.

Shentong's three-point shooting hit the iron again.

"ah--"

Big Z jumped up in the crowd and grabbed an offensive rebound.

Without any hesitation, Big Z took the ball and passed it directly to Shen Tong who was standing at the top of the arc.

Another chance.

Shen Tong shot again without hesitation.

"when"

strike again

In normal times, it is impossible for a shot from this position to miss two consecutive shots.

"Hey--"

With a roar, Boozer swung his muscle stick and grabbed another offensive rebound for the Cavaliers.

After getting the ball, Boozer didn't hesitate and gave the ball to Shentong again.

With two consecutive offensive rebounds, the Tunneling team's defensive formation has completely disintegrated.

There was still no one in front of Shentong.

Shot again.

"when"

STO:"."

Actually missed three times in a row.

When everyone felt sorry for Shentong's failure to grasp the three opportunities, James suddenly jumped out of the crowd and grabbed the third consecutive offensive rebound for the Cavaliers!

And this time, James didn't choose to pass the ball to someone else or go it alone.

The ball was in Shentong's hands again.

Shen Tong held the ball and looked at his teammates on the field.

Their eyes seem to be telling Shentong: Even if you miss a hundred shots, we will still give it to you, because we believe that you will definitely make the next shot.

this is

trust!

"Shua."

Shentong's fourth consecutive shot passed through the net hollowly.

Shentong raised his shooting right hand high.

The turning point has really come!
