The Fifth Point Guard

"Pad?"

James nodded and said, "I was careless and didn't dodge."

Shentong looked at James's swollen ankle and said, "It's useless to jump unless you don't jump again in this game."

"That is impossible."

"So this is inevitable." Shentong stretched out his hand to touch it and said, "Your feet are very swollen, and you will definitely end up."

Wagner, who was standing aside, waved to the team doctor to enter.

James said: "I want revenge!"

Shentong patted James on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me. This matter is not just once or twice. If this continues, I am also worried that I will be plotted."

James saluted his teammates and was carried off the court on a stretcher.

The referee is watching the video replay.

In the live broadcast room, Barkley was very angry when he saw Bowen's stretching action in the replay clip.

"This is definitely intentional, a very bad stepping-stone behavior. I really despise him!"

Barkley rarely became furious during the live broadcast commentary, shouting: "In our era, although the physical confrontation was very fierce, we would not use such a dirty and despicable method to reduce the opponent's strength. At that time, if we couldn't stand you, I can hit you with my fists, and of course you can hit you back, but I will never use my feet to get the opponent off the field. If this behavior happened when I was playing, I could make Bruce go down with one punch, and he would even suffer. To the whole team’s siege.”

Smith also said: "This kind of behavior has not happened once or twice. In response to Bowen's stepping-down behavior, many players have reported this problem to the league and the union, but they have all been taken over by Popovich. But now it seems, It’s time for the league to severely punish these unprofessional actions. If Bruce’s defense is based on this kind of behavior, then there is no doubt that he is not qualified to compete for the title of Defensive Player of the Year.”

Although Bowen kept trying to explain something behind the referee, the referee still gave Bowen a flagrant foul and ejected him.

Bowen looked surprised when he saw the referee ejecting him. He kept mumbling something and applauded the referee.

Ginobili came to Bowen and tried to get Bowen to listen to the referee and leave the game.

Bowen's performance drew boos from the audience.

"This is definitely the right penalty!"

Barkley praised the referee's decision.

But Shentong saw Bowen's imperceptible smile before turning around and leaving.

Your words can lie, your expressions can be imitated, but your eyes cannot be concealed.

It seems like a one-for-one exchange between the two sides, but James' impact on the Cavaliers and Bowen's impact on the Spurs are completely different.

The Cavaliers definitely suffered a big loss, and this kind of hurtful action may very well ruin a player's career.

I think back then, Cisse of the French football team was playing well in Liverpool, but his leg was broken due to a tackle and he could never return to his former state after his comeback.

This is what STO is most worried about.

After Bowen was ejected, Popovich didn't look sad.

He pointed at Finlay on the bench, and Finlay appeared on the stage.

This season's Spurs lineup is quite solid. Without Bowen, there is still Finley, and even Barry and Horry can take over.

But who should the Cavaliers use to top James?

Especially who has the charm of James' old man pushing a cart?

No!

Seeing Popovich's confident look, Shentong felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart.

You're the only one called Zhuge Popovich, right?

I will beat you until you die!

Shen Tong's eyes suddenly turned murderous.

After James left the game, Smith came on as a substitute.

But Smith is only a functional player, and his role cannot match James' shortcomings.

Under Popovich's instruction, the Spurs began to double-team Shentong very resolutely.

Targeted tactics and frequent double-teaming have limited the space for Shentong to play.

Barkley couldn't help but said: "The Spurs' double-teaming is simply blatant. They are just bullying you. Without LeBron, the Cavaliers will only have Shentong."

Whenever Shentong breaks through with the ball and passes one, two more will immediately appear in front.

However, Smith's touch was not good today. He failed to hit the two goals he received from Shentong.

And this feeling of iron seems to be contagious, Marshall and Wagner also missed long-range shots one after another.

The Spurs rely on GDP as the core and steadily perform output.

At the end of the third quarter, the Spurs had turned the situation around and took the lead.

The score is 71-77.

Without James, and the opponent was the veteran Spurs, Shentong was indeed very tired.

Taking advantage of the break between sessions, I drank a lot of sports drinks to replenish my energy.

Although it is said to be a big sip, it is actually a small sip quickly. For professional athletes, if they take a big sip directly, the stomach will not be able to bear it and will easily spasm.

After replenishing the water, Shentong covered his head with a towel.

It's time to show off your real skills!

Taking a deep breath, taking the towel off his head, Shentong stood up.

Rose, let's make the Spurs look good together!

It turns out that the star of the fifth human sculpture on the Wall of Sighs is Derrick Rose.

That's right, the rose that bloomed briefly in the last time and space.

At this moment, 17-year-old Ross was sitting on the sofa at home in Chicago, with his three brothers sitting next to him, watching the Christmas battle together.

After scoring 18.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 2.1 steals in his freshman season, Rose has become a high-profile potential star in Chicago.

Many scouts were stunned after seeing Rose's first high school game, attracted by Rose's talent.

But what they didn't know was that this was just the beginning of the light.

However, Rose's high school coach Bob Hambrick once warned Rose to protect his knees.

Although he is still young, he still has a long career.

Rose, who was flying in the air at this moment, did not take the coach's words to heart.

Looking at the current NBA, there are only a few players whose playing styles can catch Rose's eye, and STO is one of them.

Why did STO integrate Peak Rose before the game but never used it in the first three quarters?

It's a mystery, but it's about to be revealed.

In the fourth quarter, Shentong came on directly without rest.

The situation on the court did not allow Shentong to take more rest.

Buckley explained: "STO did not have a minute's rest in the second half, which was a test for the players' physical strength."

Smith said: "But there is nothing we can do about it. The Cavaliers have injured a general, and Shentong can only take the lead. We saw that he made efforts in the third quarter, but with little effect. I don't know. In the fourth quarter, what kind of guidance will Paul Silas give STO and whether he will use new tactics."

In fact, before the start of the fourth quarter, Silas actually pulled Shentong aside to give some instructions alone.

"Shen, I believe in you, you can do it, come on!"

"Finished?"

"It's over."

Against STO alone, Ginobili didn't panic at all.

Anyway, the whole team will help him cover up the defense without worrying about losing position.

In the blink of an eye, Shentong disappeared!

Ginobili was startled and immediately sobered up.

Looking back, Shentong had already taken small steps to face Nesterovich, and scored a shot that hit the board with his left hand.

Damn it!

Ginobili couldn't help but exclaimed.

What did he do to me just now?

I really didn’t see it clearly!

To be precise, I didn’t see any

"Charles, did you see the change in direction of Shentong's breakthrough just now?"

"Saw it"

"Why do I feel like the first step is so fast? Is it because I'm dazzled? It seems like there is no preparation at all, and it starts all at once."

"That's right." Barkley sat up straight and said, "It's like a compressed spring suddenly let go, but Shentong didn't make any preparations. What a terrifying explosive power this is!"

In front of the TV.

Sister Hua couldn't help but praise: "My son's explosive power is really strong!"

Dubov couldn't help but blush.

Rose, who had just been sitting on the sofa watching the game, was suddenly startled, and then sat up straight like Barkley.

This kind of direct force and change of direction without any buffering is very much like his signature move.

I once thought that I was the only one with such a talent, but I never expected that Shentong, who was competing on TV, could also do it.

Shentong's agility and elegance, coupled with Rose's explosive power, made the non-stop changes of direction achieve an explosive effect.

When meeting Ginobili again, Shentong will still use the same trick.

Step out with your right foot and dribble directly back.

His body suddenly started to move like a cheetah, leaving Ginobili on the spot!

The Argentine Demon Sword was shocked.

What kind of explosive power is this? !

After passing Ginobili, Horry came over to cover.

Shentong's non-stop change of direction instantly passed Horry.

Horry even felt a gust of wind blowing in front of his eyes, and then Shentong disappeared.

Just in the blink of an eye.

Nesterovich was even worse. He saw Shentong rushing in. As soon as he raised his foot, before he stepped out, he already completed a dunk!

quick!

too fast!

Duncan, who was standing on the other side of the basket, was stunned.

Good guy.

If I had been standing under the basket just now, I would have been the one who got a dunk on my head!

Fortunately, I wasn't there just now, otherwise I would have been the backdrop for today's top five goals.

For a time, Shentong's breakthrough came and went freely in the Spurs' defensive system like a butterfly passing through a flower.

After all, the Spurs' defense is composed of five individuals, and they don't complement each other that quickly.

To be precise, STO's breakthrough did not change direction so quickly.

Changing directions without stopping is completely bug-like in the current league.

In fact, it will be the same in the future.

After only playing half a quarter, Ginobili felt that his ankle was about to be broken by Shentong.

Parker was even more ashamed.

What is a "French sports car"? Compared with STO's breakthrough, it can only be regarded as a "French squid".

Shentong's breakthrough made the Spurs feel sad.

Popovich was stunned and everyone on the Spurs was shocked.

It turns out that ankles and knees can still play like this

Shentong has gone completely crazy!

Just like the bloodthirsty Lu Bu, the swords deal real damage!

"You are the one called Demon Sword, right?!"

Shen passed Puck.

Parker pointed at Ginobili and said aggrievedly: "He is the demon sword!"

"You're the only one who calls me a French sports car, right?!"

Shen Tong passed Ginobili.

Ginobili pointed at Parker and said: "He is the French sports car!"

Breaking through the penalty area and facing the double interception of Nesterovich and Duncan, Shentong still scored the ball strongly and stared at the expressionless Duncan.

Before he could speak, Duncan, who had always been silent, spoke first.

"I am a stone Buddha, not a demon sword or a French sports car. If you are happy, you can also call me Little Stone."

In the fourth quarter, Shentong was like a god of war.

Full of murderous intent, I act as if there is no one else around me, and I am the only one in the world.

James' ankle was covered with a thick ice pack, and with the help of the team doctor, he went to the sidelines to cheer for his teammates on the court.

As soon as I sat down, I saw Shentong's almost invincible change of direction and scored 2+1 in front of Duncan.

This scene shocked James.

Just the almost twisted calf when Shentong broke through just now made James' injured ankle feel a dull pain.

And that stern aura made James yearn for him even more.

In the live broadcast room.

Barkley said: "All teenagers who love basketball, you should carefully observe his movements, learn as much as you can, and then practice three times as hard to ensure that you can dominate the basketball court in the community or school."

Smith added: "Don't learn to change direction without slowing down. Firstly, this kind of movement requires talent, and secondly, this movement hurts the ankles and knees too much, especially for children who are growing up. Try as little as possible."

At the end of the fourth quarter, all the Spurs players were almost stunned by Shentong.

Of course, Shentong himself was not very comfortable either.

This kind of full-force change of direction without slowing down is really too heavy on the body.

In just one quarter of the fourth quarter, Shentong used its fusion strength, and his ankles and knees were already aching.

This method of breakthrough is very similar to the principle of Seven Injury Boxing in martial arts books.

Kill one thousand enemies and suffer eight hundred losses.

The score difference is 3 points, and the Cavaliers lead.

There is still enough time for both sides to attack once, so the Spurs must defend this attack.

Dribbling from outside and watching the clock.

There are 7 seconds left in the attack time.

Shake right, suddenly change direction to the left, kick the ground with your right foot at the same time, like an antelope jumping.

He passed Ginobili in one step, passed Horry in two steps, and jumped up towards Duncan.

The two collided in the air!

After being hit, Duncan drifted backwards and began to fall.

But Shentong seemed to be stuck there after the collision in the air. After Duncan distanced himself, he gently put the ball toward the basket.

The ball goes in!

The score difference reached 5 points.

The Cavaliers basically sealed the victory.

As Duncan's tip-in missed, Varejao grabbed the rebound and the game ended.

Shentong raised his hands and was hugged by Varejao.

The entire fourth quarter was simply a personal performance by Shentong, single-handedly tearing apart the Spurs' defensive system.

Popovich had a stern look on his face and kept waving to the players to leave the field quickly.

But every Spurs player who took the court in the fourth quarter walked with a limp.

The second game of the Christmas Day game ended with the Cavaliers' victory.

In the players tunnel.

Wagner said: "Shen, are your ankles injured too? Why are you limping when you walk?"

"Haha, I didn't expect that the lame person was myself."
