The Fifth Point Guard

The next afternoon, the Cavaliers conducted regular training.

James found an opportunity and told Shentong from the side that he didn't have enough money that night and he signed the check. Shentong said nothing and immediately wanted to send the money to him.

"No, Shen, just invite me again next time. This time it's mine. I'm celebrating you breaking several records in a row."

"That's so embarrassing. Let's do this. Next time you break the record, I'll invite you!"

James was silent, what a tactful rejection.

Journalists have a keen sense of smell.

That afternoon, the newspaper published a report that Hathaway stayed overnight at Shentong's house.

Soon, news spread like wildfire that Alba was staying at the Shentong mansion.

Fans are divided into three groups regarding these tidbits.

One faction is a firm supporter.

They believe that Shentong has broken up with Avril Lavigne and is currently single. Without a girlfriend, it is his own business who he dates. What’s more, Shentong’s recent performance is quite good. They only care about his performance on the court. As for who he dates. Sleeping together is not what they care about, and Shentong did not betray anyone.

The other faction is the staunch opposition.

They believe that even if STO breaks up with Avril Lavigne, he should not be dating two popular goddesses in the hearts of the American people at the same time in such a short period of time.

Most of the perceptions here are wrong.

They think that the goddesses in their eyes are all standing upright, but they don't know that most of the goddesses are lying down and red.

Of course, most of the opposition fans are jealous.

If it were them, they might immediately support this approach.

The third faction is the neutral faction.

This group did not communicate much about Shentong's emotional issues, but only expressed concerns about Shentong's competitive status, fearing that Shentong's status would decline rapidly when he was dealing with women.

After all, there are too many examples of this in the league.

However, STO's recent performance has strongly proved that there is no need to worry about the "status" issue.

In fact, the messages from the media and fans did not cause much interference to Shentong, but it was Sister Hua who made Shentong feel a little pressure.

Just after Shentong finished its afternoon training, a hurried phone call suddenly rang.

Shen Tong, who was going to take a shower, turned back to the locker and saw that it was Sister Hua calling.

"Hey, Sister Hua."

"\u0026~#@!￥)*"

"Mom, don't get excited. If you have something to say, please say it."

"Er, Mom knows you've grown up, but you can't act recklessly! Our Lao Shen family is very traditional, right?"

Shentong listened helplessly to Sister Hua's nagging and teachings.

Generally speaking, Sister Hua was very dissatisfied with STO's recent gossip and taught him not to do this.

"Well, it's okay if you want to find a girlfriend, but you can only find one. On Christmas Eve this year, you come back for dinner and bring back the girlfriend you decided on. Remember, you can only have one!"

"Snapped!"

After Sister Hua finished speaking, she hung up the phone neatly.

Shentong was speechless for a long time.

James came over and asked, "What's going on?"

Shentong shook his head.

"nothing."

Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba, and others

Who should I choose?

"Hey Shin."

A slightly unfamiliar voice.

Shentong looked up and it was Reggie Miller.

"Man, to be honest, I still can't believe your performance that day is real."

Miller sat next to Shentong and said: "This season, I did come to join the Cavaliers for the championship, but training and playing with you, I feel more and more scary about you. I have always boasted that I am three No one can beat the ball, but compared to you, I felt a sense of fear at certain moments, which I rarely felt before."

Wagner interjected: "Who else was there before STO?"

Miller smiled and replied: "Who else, of course, is the ubiquitous guy."

After answering Wagner's question, Miller stood up and continued: "Shen, I hope you can take on the responsibility of the team boss and lead us to win the championship this season."

For a veteran like Miller to say this, it definitely comes from the bottom of his heart.

Shentong immediately understood that Miller had some concerns about the gossip he had recently exposed. He has been in the league for nearly 20 years and has seen too many talented players fall rapidly.

"Reggie, don't worry, I will do my best!"

Miller grinned and said, "I know you will. Besides, your game yesterday really shocked me."

After saying that, Miller turned and left.

"He's pretty cool," Wagner said. "He was the only one who didn't go to the party last night."

"Really?" James hasn't discovered this yet.

Suddenly, something unusual appeared in Shentong's sight that he hadn't seen for a long time!

"Didi didi"

The aperture quickly locked on Miller's body.

There is a drop!

{

Name: Reggie Miller

Available: "Great Sun Tathagata Spraying Sutra"

}

The Great Sun Tathagata sprays sutras?

What the hell is this.

Shentong clicked "Pick Up and Drop", and a scripture book with "Three Hundred Tang Poems" written on the cover appeared in front of Shentong.

{

Sutra: "The Great Sun Tathagata Sutra"

Details: Drop from sharpshooter and loudmouth Reggie Miller.

If you learn the contents of this scripture, you can become the king of trash talk on the court.

Your speaking ability will be greatly improved.

Studying this sutra depends on the qualifications of the practitioner.

Ordinary people need to practice for seventy-seven forty-nine days before they can achieve even a small amount of success.

But those with excellent qualifications only need 7,749 minutes.

}

It seems that Miller has been impressed by his three-point shooting performance in the last game.

Shentong opened the "Great Sun Tathagata Sutra" without hesitation.

Shentong, who had experienced the battlefield of Zu'an, was certainly one with excellent qualifications.

In half an hour, Shentong had finished reading this book.

Closing his eyes and recalling it carefully, Shentong couldn't help laughing.

"What's going on with you?" Wagner asked.

"NMSL."

Quietly, someone leaves, just as quietly, someone comes.

Kenyon Martin, who became an All-Star with the New Jersey Nets, went to the Denver Nuggets, while Raptors general Vince Carter came to New Jersey.

This season, New Jersey once again welcomes a heavyweight player at the shooting guard position.

Before the start of the season, most fans even believed that this Nets team was even stronger than the Nets that won the championship when STO played for them.

The outside trident composed of Kidd, Carter, and Jefferson also gave the teams that played against them this season strong offensive firepower and suffocating transitions between offense and defense.

If the Suns have set off an offensive storm in the league, then the Nets are definitely the one adding fuel to the fire.

Carter has averaged 27.5 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 1.5 steals and 1 block per game since the start of the season. He is at the level of a superstar.

After Martin left, Jefferson became the team's No. 2 attacker, averaging 22.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 0.5 blocks per game. The data was slightly lower than Carter's, but his efficiency was almost the same. After all, Jefferson's shooting rights ranked behind Carter, and his rebounds were 1.5 more than Carter's.

Kidd completely transformed into the team's controller.

Averaged 15 points, 7.5 rebounds, 8.5 assists and 2 steals per game. The data is more comprehensive. In the 6 games since the start of the season, he has recorded 2 triple-doubles.

In addition, the Nets also welcomed several tough players.

Eric Williams, who played for the Cavaliers last season, came to New Jersey. He performed well as a substitute player, with 12 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists. He is the best assistant on the wing.

In addition, although Martin is gone inside, Mourning's 11 points, 6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks have well supported the Nets' inside line.

The newly joined Serbian Nenad Kostic became the team's starting center in his rookie season, averaging 10 points and 5 rebounds per game. As a rookie inside, his performance is really commendable.

Jason Collins, who joined the Nets as a rookie together with Shentong and Jefferson, was promoted to the team's starting power forward position.

Here, Collins, who was originally a center, evolved into an inside beast who can play the fourth and fifth positions.

Although he only averages 7+6 per game, he is almost everywhere on the court, like a beast with unlimited physical strength that cannot run to death.

The first stop of the Cavaliers' consecutive away games is STO's old owner, the New Jersey Nets.

Before the game started, STO took out the "Zodiac Flame Roulette".

At the scale marked with the attribute "three-pointer", the sacred fire that was originally lit has been extinguished.

Shentong can see that the three-pointer attributes on its attribute panel have returned to normal.

So what attribute will it be in the next game?

Turn the pointer and it starts to rotate on the turntable.

Under Shentong's gaze, the pointer slowly stopped.

The property it points to is pass!

In this way, in the upcoming game, the passing attribute will receive a "Holy Fire" bonus.

Shentong looked at the properties panel.

The attribute "Passing" seems to be burning, and the attribute value has changed from 72-80 to 102-110!

Both the upper and lower limits exceed 100.

I don't know what will happen today.

Continuous away games are the last thing NBA players like to encounter.

Moreover, it is still raining heavily in New Jersey today. This environment is not friendly at all to the away team.

However, there is still good news for the Cavaliers.

After more than a week of observation, Ilgauskas, who had rested for three games, determined that there was no problem and will return in this game.

In this way, Big Z returned to the starting lineup, and Varejao, who can play the fourth and fifth positions, became the substitute inside.

Before the game, the starting lineups announced by both sides were:

Cavaliers: Center: Big Z, Power Forward: Gooden, Small Forward: James, Shooting Guard: Shentong, Point Guard: Wagner;

Nets: Center: Krstic, Power Forward: Collins, Small Forward: Jefferson, Shooting Guard: Carter, Point Guard: Kidd.

This game will be broadcast live by TNT.

Before the game even started, the audience heard Barkley's wails in the live broadcast room.

"Why? Why didn't you broadcast the last game! Oh my God, why are you playing with me?"

Kenny Smith looked sideways at Barkley and said, "Charles, that's not it. It's just a game."

Barkley said: "What do you know? A player of your level won't understand. In the last game, Shentong was possessed by the basketball god. He set a record of three three-pointers in one game!"

Smith said: "Charles, we have to look forward. The past is in the past and we will never look back. But you can seize the moment. For example, in the game that is about to start, the Cavaliers vs. the Nets, maybe you can also see the creation. What about the recorded moments?”

Smith's words calmed Barkley down.

But after a while, Barkley said again: "It's too difficult. After watching STO's performance in the last game, it will be difficult for you to get excited about this one."

"Not always."

After politely hugging Kidd and Jefferson, Shentong also hugged Carter in greeting.

During the offseason training camp, Carter lived at Yesentong's house for a while.

Although they didn't communicate much with each other before, they were at least roommates.

Before the game, Jefferson made harsh words.

"Shen, we in New Jersey have only one goal this season, and that is the championship. You can only be a stepping stone on our road to success."

Shentong picked his ears and pretended not to care and said, "Okay, okay, I got it. You've said it so many times that your ears are calloused."

Jefferson: "."

The whistle blows and the game begins.

Although it was an away game, there were still many STO posters on site.

After all, here, STO has left many good memories for New Jersey fans.

Big Z, who had rested for a week, was very brave and easily won the jump ball.

After receiving the ball, James didn't look at anyone at all and passed the ball directly. Shentong had already run into the Nets' penalty area, jumped high with his back to the basket, caught James' long pass in the air, and dunked successfully!

"Crunch——"

Buckley was so excited that he almost fell off his chair.

Smith said quickly: "Calm down, Charles, didn't I mean you won't be in high spirits for this game?"

Barkley knew that he had lost his composure and said quickly: "Ah, the bench is a bit slippery today. However, Shentong's dunk just now was awesome!"

The Cavaliers gave the Nets, who were playing at home, a disastrous start, but the Nets quickly equalized the score.

After Kidd and Collins picked and rolled, Carter hit the ground and passed the ball from behind. Carter used the cover of his teammates to follow up from the center. After receiving Kidd's pass, he spread his wings and flew high, and dunked the ball into the basket very comfortably!

"despair."

Buckley moved the chair forward, met Smith's questioning eyes, and said with a slight embarrassment: "Drag the chair closer so that you can see clearly."

Both sides attacked aggressively from the beginning, with almost no probing.

The competition between the two sides on the outside almost reached the extreme.

The Cavaliers' outside trio of Shentong, James, and Wagner met the same trident of Kidd, Carter, and Jefferson today.

In the first quarter, the two sides played inextricably.

The Cavaliers, playing away games, were slightly behind the Nets by 1 point, 27-28.

On the bench, Shentong said firmly to Wagner: "Victory must belong to us in the end."

Wagner gasped and asked, "Shen, why are you so sure?"

So Shen told Wagner a story about Tian Ji's horse racing.
