The Fifth Point Guard

Make history, create Cleveland's own history.

Tall buildings rise from the ground.

STO is the foundation of history.

James is the bricks that build tall buildings.

They want to create their own history, not only for the city of Cleveland, but also for themselves.

Piecing together history?

Looking for some semi-finished composition champs?

That's not what Shentong wants.

What he longed for was to prove himself.

At the press conference after the game, Lakers coach Jackson did not bring O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, and Malone.

He brought the two players with the most assists on the Lakers in this game.

Derek Fisher and Gary Payton.

Jackson is using this method to prove what the Lakers currently lack the most and what they should pay attention to.

Facing the interview with the media, Jackson said: "Today's game was very intense. Kobe did what he has always been good at. Once 8 seconds before the end of the game, I thought we had the victory in our hands, but Shin Zhen was an incredible guy who showed me the 'killer' potential in kobe, luck was on their side, shin hit the game-winner and they took the win. we'll wrap up when we go back The experience and lessons brought by the loss of this game, our transfer of the ball in this game is not good enough, and our cooperation needs to be strengthened, but I believe we will overcome this, and there is no difficulty that can stump these guys (referring to players such as F4 )."

As the coach, Jackson spoke moderately.

He thinks that the coordination problem is easy to solve, but is it really the case?

The season has started more than 20 games, but the tacit understanding of the Lakers' F4 on the court is still very problematic.

Gary Payton has a big mouth, and he doesn't keep his words in his heart like Jackson.

After all, he cut his salary and came to the Lakers just to win the championship, not for the long-term development here, let alone for the middle-aged mistress of a certain team's management.

Payton said: "Our cooperation is really bad. Even sometimes, everyone stands still and looks at someone in singles. The ball completely stops. Fight, we should have won this game. We maintained a certain advantage from the beginning, but as the game progressed, our advantage was gradually swallowed up. Individual singles can't solve the game. We need to believe in the team , believe in your teammates."

Fisher agreed with Payton's words. As the captain of the team, he also said: "We will hold a player meeting after the game to talk openly about each other's views on the team or players. We will communicate well. I believe our performance will improve in the next games.”

After the Lakers press conference in the away game, Silas proudly brought his two lovers to attend the press conference.

Shen Tong and James sat on both sides of Silas.

Silas first expressed his affirmation and appreciation for the team's performance in this game.

"They are an incredible group of lads who played really well! I am proud of their performance. Although we were behind in the game, we stabilized our position and gradually approached and overtook the score. You know, playing against this Lakers team is really hard to breathe, the pressure is too great, and the opponents are all Hall of Fame players (laughter)"

"We're going to keep playing like this and see what we can bring to Cleveland."

A reporter asked: "Do you think it is possible for the Cavaliers this season to copy the Nets of the previous two years, win the Eastern Conference championship and reach the Finals?"

Silas shook his head with a smile and said, "To be honest, I can't give you an answer to this question. I won't set limits on these young people, because the sky is their limit."

When Shen Tong was speaking, a reporter asked him some of his views on the Kobe case.

This issue is quite sensitive.

But who is Shentong?

That is a person who graduated from Peking University.

Although it has only been in the league for two years, heroes cherish heroes. During the All-Star Game last season, Shentong and Kobe had exchanged phone numbers and added AIM.

"Kobe and I have not discussed this issue, but I believe he will make a wise decision, and his legal team will investigate the truth. As a friend of Kobe, I choose to believe and support him. In fact, we There was a phone call two weeks ago, he was in a good mood, and I believe this matter will be resolved soon."

A reporter asked again: "Today you used a counter-lore to make Kobe's lore come back to nothing. What do you think about this?"

Shen Tong said with a smile: "I know he will definitely not be in a good mood, because during the All-Star Game last year, I often used the Nets to beat the Lakers he played. I know he has a strong competitive spirit, but the game is In this way, the winner must be determined.”

James responded to a reporter's question about "the last attack."

James said bluntly: "In middle school and high school, there was no doubt that I was the only one who had the last shot, but this is the NBA, Shin is a good scorer, and he proved himself in the Finals. Guy, if I were the coach, I would choose Shin as the last guy without hesitation, there is no second choice."

After speaking, James looked at Shentong with his head, and Shentong was also looking at James.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Silas consciously stepped back.

The interaction between the three showed the good internal atmosphere of the team, and also amused the reporters on the scene.

Back in the locker room, Shen Tong took out his cell phone.

There were a few missed calls and a few text messages on it.

Gilbert Arenas: Shen, my buddy, I watched your lore, it's amazing, you can play the lore with Kobe, you are so good, I can't wait for the Wizards and Cavaliers This time, I must beat you all!

Still such an aggressive personality.

Arenas went from the Golden State Warriors to the Washington Wizards this season and performed quite well.

Since the start of the game, he has averaged 20.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.9 steals per game, and has made 37.5% of his three-pointers. He is the top scorer of the Wizards.

He, Larry Hughes and Jerry Stockhouse formed the Wizards' three guns.

It's just that the Wizards are currently only ranked ninth in the Eastern Conference and are still hovering outside the playoffs.

Richard - Jefferson: Hey man, great play, hope we can meet in the Eastern Conference finals this year, I'm waiting for you.

A message that looks like a blessing but is actually showing off.

Still so boring.

However, the Nets' competitiveness in the Eastern Conference is still strong this season. With Jason Kidd in charge, the Nets' record has not declined significantly after losing Shentong.

This also made many critics and fans question Shentong's ability.

Shentong replied to the text messages one by one.

While Shen Tong was typing on his mobile phone, a black shadow suddenly blocked the light.

Shen Tong raised his head, and James said while eating a banana: "Shen, can you give me a special shot training, I think I have some experience in shooting recently, but it seems to be just a little bit worse."

Shen Tong laughed.

"no problem."

In fact, there is no need for James to ask for it, and Shentong also has this plan.

In the last time and space, until James' first season with the Heat, shooting was still his shortcoming, but in this time and space, Shen Tong can't wait so long.

He hopes that James can develop his shooting ability earlier and keep it stable.

Before leaving that night, Shen Tong came to Silas's office.

He and his son Stephen Silas are sitting in the office watching tape of tonight's game.

Shen Tong didn't expect that Silas would be so serious. He started to study the game video of the day just after the game.

Seeing Shen Tong coming in, coach Paul Silas was very enthusiastic.

"Hey, Shin, why haven't you gone back yet? Is there anything you need to see me at this time?"

After Shentong and Stephen nodded to each other, they said, "Paul, I want to discuss something with you."

"What's the matter? Just say it."

"Well, LeBron came to me today, we wanted to"

(A few hundred words are omitted here)

After listening to Shen Tong's suggestion, Silas hardly hesitated, and nodded directly: "Shen, your idea is very good, just do as you said, then our team's regular training will be postponed until the morning after tomorrow."

Shen Tong was a little surprised, he didn't expect Silas to be so easy to talk, and he didn't have the airs of a coach at all.

"Okay, Paul, I'll do my best."

After Shen Tong left, Silas's son Stephen said to Silas with some dissatisfaction: "Hey, Paul, don't you think what Shen Tong has done is a bit too much? He is just a player, what right does he have to lead?" The team went to his so-called special training? Although he has reached the finals for two consecutive years and performed well, you don’t want to let him mess around, right?”

After listening to Stephen's complaint, Silas said with a smile: "Stephen, do you think Shin is a fool?"

Stephen replied: "But he is not a coach after all."

Silas raised his hand and interrupted Stephen's words, saying: "Stephen, in this team, as long as someone can do something that is beneficial to the team, we should all support it. It is precisely because we are coaches that we should Do things that are beneficial to the team and the players. Although some proposals like Shentong are beyond the power of the players, they are beneficial to the team and harmless. Those of us who are coaches are not just to make the team better. okay?"

Stephen said: "But once this kind of thing is known to the media, they will think that you, as the coach, have no authority in the team. Instead, you will be ignored by the players and let the players have the final say."

Silas laughed loudly and said: "My son, do you really think that I am a guy who will be disturbed by outside voices? It's their business what they want to say, as long as we do what we think is right, then enough."

Seeing that Stephen was silent, Silas said again: "Stephen, just like I brought you to Cleveland to be a member of my team, some media said that you came here as a teaching assistant because of my nepotism, but in fact I know No, I see the potential of an excellent coach in you, and I believe that you will be a very good coach, so I stick to my approach and don't care about the opinions of those media or others. In fact, Stephen, you did a really good job, which makes me proud, and I didn't miss it."

Stephen: "."

Silas looked directly into Stephen's eyes and said, "My vision is unmistakable. Shin is bound to become a very good player. I have no doubts about this."

The morning after the Lakers game.

Cavaliers players collectively appeared at Shen Tong's home.

The night before, after Shentong and Silas chatted, all the players on the Cavaliers received a text message from Shentong.

The content of the text message is: Gather at my house on time at 9:00 tomorrow morning, and I will give you a special training on shooting. Be sure not to ask for leave and attend on time!

Because of Shentong's appeal, none of the other 14 players was absent, and the whole team was present.

Shen Tong brought everyone to his audio-visual room.

Then, a slideshow is presented on the home theater screen.

The players found their positions, looked at the content on the screen, and listened to Shentong's explanation at the same time.

The title of this PPT is: Shot Management.

The main content is: 1. Don’t put too much pressure on the court when shooting. After all, it’s just shooting, and it’s not a matter of life and death. It’s a good thing to make a shot. If you don’t make a shot, you will have another chance to shoot. Relax On the contrary, it is easier to shoot more accurately; 2. Learn to choose the timing of shooting. If you hesitate immediately after getting the ball, then please give up the ball decisively and do not force the shot, because at this time, your shooting The hit rate will drop a lot, so it is better to pass the ball and wait for a better opportunity; 3. You must have your own shooting points, and you should pay attention to those positions where you can shoot more accurately in normal times. Position to complete the shot, or use these questions to find the feeling of shooting when the hand feels bad.

The content of Shentong's explanations is humorous and witty, and it is based on his own experience of shooting for many years. In addition to basketball factors, it also includes some psychological aspects such as mentality construction and management.

After theoretical counseling, Shentong will then carry out training combining practice and theory.

"Guys, now that everyone has no problems, let's move on to the next practical special training."

Everyone's eyes focused on Shen Tong's face, wondering what training this guy would bring next.

"It's a very difficult sport called disco turntable."

Disco turntable?

Everyone's expressions changed instantly.

Some were delighted, some were surprised, some were laughing, and some were frowning.

Wagner looked at the expressions of the crowd, summoned up the courage to speak first, and said, "Shen, it's broad daylight, isn't it good?"

STO:?

Follow Shen Tong to the backyard.

There is a huge warehouse there.

Shen Tong walked in front of the team and said as he walked, "For this sport, I have worked so hard to save this round. You all have to perform well in a while."

Boozer and Wagner were at the end of the line.

Boozer said: "I only heard of Russian roulette, I didn't think there was a disco roulette."

Wagner said: "Maybe it's a new way of playing, my waist is a little sore today only last night."

Along with everyone whispering, Shen Tong pushed open the door of the warehouse.

The scene in front of them gradually appeared in front of everyone.

All the Cavaliers players widened their eyes and opened their mouths in surprise.
