The Fifth Point Guard

The score on the court was 4-2, Shentong took the lead,

After Shentong feinted with the ball from outside, he immediately took a step back, two steps away from the three-point line.

Jumping up to shoot, Wagner could only look at the ball and sigh.

"Shua!"

The ball passes through the net hollow.

"what"

The players dispersed.

The expected upset didn't happen.

5-2, Shentong easily won.

Wagner scored two goals, one was a layup and the other was an emergency stop jumper.

Shentong scored more goals.

In addition to the first one being a post-up dunk, two of them were breakthrough layups, one was a mid-range shot, and the other was the ultra-long three-pointer that ended the game.

In terms of offensive kaleidoscope, Shentong is actually more qualified than Anthony.

James, who was sitting on the sidelines watching the game, was unknowingly attracted by Shentong's offense.

James has always been aware of his strengths and weaknesses.

The advantage is that your own breakthrough is strong.

With a strong body and good speed, few players can defend themselves one-on-one.

And his own shortcomings and advantages are equally obvious, that is, the stability of the jump shot is too poor.

It is James' dream to be able to get anything he wants at any position on the court like Shen Tong.

Wagner held the ball in one hand, shook hands with Shen Tong in the other, and said, "Shen, you are really good. I am convinced that I lost."

Shen Tong said with a smile: "You are not bad at playing, but you rely too much on breakthroughs. The pull-up jump shot is also a choice made when there is no better layup opportunity after the breakthrough. Too simple offensive methods are easy to be targeted. But you are still young, there are plenty of opportunities, and it will be good for you to practice more offensive methods."

"Yeah!" Wagner nodded.

While Shentong and Wagner were talking, James also made up his mind silently in his heart.

Two days after defeating the Denver Nuggets, the Los Angeles Lakers, who have been in the spotlight this season, came to Cleveland for the first time.

Today's Cleveland seems to be celebrating a holiday, too many stars will appear in this game.

Fans who hold tickets for this game posted online: It is such a blessing to have tickets for this game! I have been looking forward to this game since a week ago, and I was so excited that I couldn't sleep last night. Today I want to enjoy this game.

The comments below the post are full of envious words.

In the locker room, Boozer was answering the phone call from his cousin's neighbor's daughter's best friend's boyfriend's ex-girlfriend.

"I'm serious, there are really no tickets, and there are no tickets for the players' families. They have already been divided."

Hanging up the phone, Boozer sighed.

"This is already the third friend who asked me for a ticket today."

Wagner, who was sitting next to Boozer, said: "I also received two calls for tickets yesterday and today, but there is no way. Who would have thought that the market for this game would be so hot."

"Hey, Carlos, the voice on the phone just now sounds like a girl, I remember you still have a ticket?"

Boozer curled his lips and said, "My cousin asked me for this ticket a long time ago. I guess he will be here soon."

After finishing speaking, Boozer suddenly turned around and asked Shen Tong who was arranging shoelaces: "Shen, I would like to ask you a question."

Shen Tong raised his head.

"what is the problem?"

"Well, my female friend is a Chinese-American. What did she say to me? If she had a ticket, she would repay me. What did she say? Repay a thousand miles of Jiangling in one day. Do you know what it means?"

STO:"."

When Shentong finished speaking in Boozer's ear, Boozer's eyes lit up.

He immediately made two phone calls.

"Hey, cousin, I'm very sorry, my teammate's relative took your ticket."

"Hey, Jennifer, I got you a ticket for you. It's not easy. You mean what you say."

Walking out of the player tunnel, the atmosphere at the scene was extremely warm.

On the other side of the field, the Lakers players are already in place, and they are warming up and shooting.

O'Neal, Malone, Kobe, Payton... and so on.

The book strength of this Lakers team is very strong.

The Lakers F4 are all top players in the league. After time, their level is unquestionable.

Shen Tong remembers that in the last time and space, although the Lakers broke through in the Western Conference, they lost 1-4 to the Pistons in the Finals.

But after all, this is a matter of the last time and space, and it is hard to say whether history will repeat itself.

Because last season, the Nets won the championship, not the Spurs.

Before the game, both teams announced their starting rosters.

Cavaliers: Ilgauskas, Boozer, James, Shentong, McGinnis.

Lakers: O'Neal, Malone, George, Kobe, Payton.

Before going on the court, Shen Tong entered the basket god space and took out the "natural halo".

Although this Lakers team has F4, Malone and Payton have never played a triangle offense, and they won't get along well so quickly.

In the main lineup of the Lakers, apart from O'Neal and Kobe, the other three are new faces.

Coupled with Kobe's frequent hearings.

The Lakers' tactical integration and tacit understanding can be imagined.

Shen Tong, who has enough "experience", naturally thought of using the "natural halo".

Use the team's tactical tacit understanding to face the opponent, just like the Pistons in the finals that year.

The starting players of both sides appeared on the field, and the game was about to start.

Shen Tong and Kobe embraced each other.

"Shin, I'm glad you're out of New Jersey, this season is up to us."

"Hey, Kobe, your roster is really strong, but winning or losing is another matter."

The two sides looked at each other and smiled.

After separating from each other, Shen Tong shook his head and wrist, while Kobe bent over and shook his knees, waiting for the start of the game.

There was a desire for victory in the eyes of both of them.

Amid the deafening cheers, the game finally started!

O'Neal showed his good form and won the ball for the Lakers.

After George took the ball and handed it to Payton, the Lakers started to attack.

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

From the first pitch, the Gund Arena fans were not stingy with their voices.

This is the team with the highest odds of winning the championship in the league. Being able to beat them means that Cleveland has the opportunity to have the strength to fight for the long-lost championship.

Payton handed the ball to George, and O'Neal asked for the ball inside.

George lobs the ball inside.

According to Silas's pre-match arrangement, Boozer immediately let go of Malone and stepped forward to double-team.

At the same time that O'Neal got the ball, Malone had already run out of the penalty area and came to the outside line to pick and roll for Kobe.

Relying on Malone's cover, Kobe escaped Shentong's defense and ran out of space.

O'Neal's pass accurately found Kobe who had a chance.

Compared with the other three players, the OK combination has cooperated for the longest time and has a relatively higher degree of tacit understanding.

After receiving the ball, Kobe shot a jumper directly, and the ball hit steadily.

After experiencing the repeated running and tossing of suspected cases, Kobe devoted more attention to the game itself.

Although Malone and Payton came to the team, Kobe is still the Lakers' number one scorer.
