The Fifth Point Guard

The sound of hammering struck a chord with everyone.

Many Cavaliers fans in front of the TV have even closed their eyes in despair.

The great situation of 2-0 was about to be lost.

Barkley couldn't help but sigh: "If we miss the second free throw, the Cavaliers are finished."

At that point in time, almost everyone believed that the Cavaliers were destined to lose.

Except for one person.

Shentong's free throw looked very outrageous, not like his usual level.

The ball hit the edge of the basket and bounced toward the baseline at a very large ejection angle.

At the same time as the basketball bounced, STO was already ahead of everyone else and headed towards the bottom corner.

Get the ball, turn around and jump!

The movements are done in one go.

Nowitzki was the first to react from the Mavericks, but his block was too late.

Shentong relies on the inertia of turning and uses a slightly backward shooting posture to throw the ball towards the basket.

This is a three-pointer!

Everyone held their breath for a moment.

Then, something surprising happened.

The difficult three-pointer was actually hit!

When the score on the scoreboard became 104-103, many people covered their mouths with their hands and stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what had just happened.

Barkley was stunned, too.

"What happened just now? Why did the knight kill instantly?"

Smith replied excitedly: "STO missed a free throw and passed the ball to himself three seconds later. This was all STO's layout. What a big game of chess!"

Shentong raised his arms high and stood in front of Avery Johnson.

The Cavaliers players who reacted were ecstatic and flocked to Shentong from all directions.

Including Paul Silas.

3-1 and 2-2, these are completely different situations.

For the two teams, there is no difference between heaven and earth.

Barkley finally understood what had just happened, and couldn't help but use a witticism to describe Shentong's completely unexpected and wonderful performance just now.

"Shentong really came to Mickey Mouse House carrying Bulbasaur seeds and eating Bulbasaur Corns. You are so wonderful!"

The Cavaliers felt a roller coaster ride up and down. Although the crotch was very sore, it felt very good.

The Mavericks experienced a death blow from heaven to hell.

After the game, Shentong was grabbed by reporters and refused to let him go.

Reporter: "Shen, tell us and all the fans watching this game, was your last free throw intentional or did it happen by accident?"

Shentong, who won the game by luck, was obviously in a good mood.

"I refuse to answer this question. I can only tell you that I enjoyed the process and results of the game very much. I can't wait to return to Cleveland, fight side by side with our fans, and strive to win the most critical battle. !”

"Wish ya'll good luck!"

"Thanks, brother."

Shen Tong will not tell the Mavericks what happened with the last goal, let the Mavericks players taste it for themselves.

It's better to get stuck in it and be unable to extricate yourself.

Attacking the mind is also part of the game.

The more you want to know, the less I will tell you.

In fact, when Shentong looked at the basket, countless thoughts were already running through his mind.

The second free throw was made, and the initiative was in the hands of the Mavericks. When the time came, someone deliberately missed the free throw to waste time, and there was not much time left for the Cavaliers.

And even if everything goes very well and ends up tied, going into the second overtime is just delaying death for the Cavaliers.

At that time, STO had actually made plans.

Definitely not going into overtime, either you will lose directly and happily, or you will directly win against the odds and snatch the victory from the mouth of the cow.

So Shentong missed that free throw on purpose.

Of course, there is an element of luck involved.

But STO won the bet.

This loss was a devastating blow to the Mavericks.

The team's morale was severely damaged.

Even team leader Nowitzki said in an interview with the German media after the game that the Mavericks were in dire straits.

Game 5, Cleveland.

The city was brightly lit that night and no one slept.

Everyone is watching this game at home.

All the fans at the scene were as excited as chicken blood.

The loud cheers never stopped from the beginning of the game.

This game is simply torture for the Mavericks players who are playing away games.

This is the best game the Cavaliers have ever played.

Shentong, James, Wagner, Big Z, Gooden, Hardaway, Smith, Marshall

A total of 8 Cavaliers scored in double figures!

The Mavericks' defense was riddled with holes.

Tonight, Cleveland is no longer a team that can defeat Shentong alone.

Hardaway seems to have returned to the time he was 10 years ago.

Even for a period of time, Hardaway led a group of substitutes to play the Mavericks in pieces.

The Mavericks never expected that they would reach the finals by shooting, but they would be defeated by the Cavaliers on the stage of the finals.

120-97.

With less than 2 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Mavericks, who were still 20 points behind, withdrew all their main players.

They finally realized that the owner of this year's O'Brien Cup is called the Cleveland Cavaliers.

"Come again next year."

Johnson comforted the Mavericks players who left the game one by one.

Nowitzki sat on the bench without saying a word, his eyes were empty and divergent, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Terry covered his head with a towel, and his unwillingness could be seen from his clenched fists.

The Mavericks had a chance to win two games, but were defeated by the Cavaliers in both games.

If, if there is a if

After the first four games, they may be the side leading 3-1.

but.

Basketball is round, and no one knows the final result until the result is announced.

It was as if the Cavaliers were the ultimate winners.

There are no ifs and what-ifs.

Because once there is a hypothesis, what happens to the knight may also change.

What is truly certain is that victory must be firmly held in one's own hands.

The so-called theory, the so-called if

They are all unrealistic fantasies.

The streets of Cleveland sang victory hymns.

Three or five fans formed teams and went to the bar to celebrate the victory.

That night, bars in downtown Cleveland were open until 6 a.m.

Happy fans partied all night long.

The city smells of champagne and beer.

With averages of 37.2 points, 7.4 rebounds and 7.0 assists per game, STO was undoubtedly elected as the Finals MVP.

In this way, STO achieved three MVP Grand Slams this season.

All-Star Game MVP, Regular Season MVP and Finals MVP.

This makes Shentong the fourth player in NBA history to accomplish this achievement.

Prior to this, the three people in NBA history who won the AMVP+MVP+FMVP were Willis Reed (1969-70 season), Michael Jordan (1995-96 season) and Shaquille O'Neal (1999-2000 season). ).

The first person in NBA history to do this was Knicks legend Reid.

In the 1969-70 season, Reed averaged 21.7 points and 13.9 rebounds per game in the regular season and was elected regular season MVP.

On the All-Star Game stage, Reed led the team to victory with 21 points and 11 rebounds, and won the All-Star Game MVP.

In that year's Finals, Reed helped the Knicks win the championship, and he was also elected as the Finals MVP.

In his first season back in the 1995-96 season, basketball god Jordan averaged 30.4 points per game and was elected regular season MVP.

In that year's All-Star Game, Jordan scored 20 points to help the Eastern team defeat the Western team and win the All-Star Game MVP.

In the Finals, Jordan led the Bulls to defeat the Seattle SuperSonics, winning their fourth championship and fourth Finals MVP.

As the most dominant center in history, O'Neal also accomplished this feat in the 1999-2000 season.

This year, O'Neal averaged 29.7 points and 13.6 rebounds per game, led the team to a record of 67 wins and 15 losses, and was elected the regular season MVP.

O'Neal, who likes to play tricks, won the All-Star Game MVP that season.

On the stage of the Finals, O'Neal became the dominant player, leading the Lakers to kill everyone.

With his terrifying performance of 38.0 points and 16.7 rebounds per game, he led the Lakers to the first championship in the 21st century and became the first 21st century Finals MVP.

According to Barkley, Shuntong is already at the top of the top five shooting guards. If he can lead the Cavaliers to three consecutive championships next season, then his status is expected to be equal to Jordan's.

"He was only 25 years old at that time. Oh my God, can you imagine? He had every chance to surpass Michael and become a true global icon."

Although it is still early to talk about surpassing Jordan, at least tonight, Shentong is the God of War in the hearts of all fans.

When he lifted the FMVP trophy and James lifted the championship trophy, the atmosphere in the Quicken Loans Center reached its climax.

Countless colorful ribbons floated from the sky again.

The scene has become a sea of ​​joy.

The smell of champagne was everywhere in the locker room.

Silas did not expect that he would be showered all over as soon as he entered the locker room.

Shentong and James took the lead in pouring champagne directly on Silas' head, and others followed suit.

Silas laughed and immediately grabbed a bottle of champagne to fight back.

Only at this time, no one has to worry about going too far, let alone what punishment Silas will impose.

This night, sleepless.

Cleveland wins two consecutive championships!

After winning the championship, Shentong immediately started preparing for his wedding with Dubov.

By this time, Dobrev's belly had begun to show.

But since I am very thin, I can still wear a very slim wedding dress.

Shentong specially found Valentino and made a hand-customized wedding dress. It was especially required to be loose in the belly position, and at the same time, the bride's noble temperament and elegant figure should be highlighted as a whole.

The wedding venue was divided into two venues.

One is a Western-style wedding held in Miami, which has a comfortable climate, and the other is a Chinese-style wedding held in Jinling, China.

Compared with Western-style custom-made wedding dresses, Shentong’s Chinese-style weddings in China use Xiuhe dresses handmade by master craftsmen in Shanghai.

In Miami, we invited friends from the United States, which can be said to be a gathering of elites.

Celebrities from the sports, entertainment and business circles were present.

Jordan, Kobe, James, Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady.

Spike Lee, Avril Lavigne, Hathaway, Alba

Ivanka, Jobs, Kardashian

On the beach in Miami, Shentong put the first championship ring he won with the Cavaliers on Dubov's hand and kissed Dubov in front of everyone.

After the ceremony, everyone who came to watch the ceremony enjoyed a Chinese seafood buffet on the beach, and everyone was amazed by the food.

It was Sister Hua's idea to hold a Chinese-style wedding in Jinling.

After all, there are so many relatives at home clamoring to drink Shentong’s wedding wine.

What's more important is that after all these years, the gifts sent by Sister Hua have yet to be paid back.

After holding their wedding in the United States, Shentong and Dubov took a week off before returning to China for their second wedding.

The pregnant Dobrev became the darling of the family.

Sister Hua was so busy that she completely regarded Dobrev as her own daughter.

The scene in Jinling was very lively, with seven aunts and eight aunts all vying to get a look at this foreign daughter-in-law.

Many male relatives back home gave Shentong a thumbs up and praised him for bringing glory to the country.

After the two weddings, Sister Hua and Lao Shen accompanied their daughter-in-law back to their villa in Cleveland.

The two elders moved into Shentong's villa to facilitate taking care of Dubov, and Dubov also temporarily suspended his studies.

Shentong remains in China to prepare for the World Championships to be held in Japan in August.

Since they won third place in the last Olympic Games, the Chinese men's basketball team has attracted much anticipation and attention in this World Championships.

World-class teams such as the United States, Argentina, and Spain all put China on their list of strongest competitors.

As a teammate of Shentong, James said bluntly: "Any team that has both Shentong and Yao Ming is a team that cannot be ignored, not to mention they also have NBA-level players such as Wang Zhizhi and Battelle. The Chinese team We are fully capable of competing for the championship.”

Nowitzki, a German who just had a battle with STO in the finals, believes that China is a team that has the potential to win the championship.

"Brother, they have a superstar like Shentong. He is a disaster for other teams. No one can guard him. Coupled with several inside players of the Chinese team, they are very likely to create their own history. , I have no doubt about it.”

According to the list announced by Chinese men's basketball coach Yunus, players including Shentong, Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Battelle and other players have all been selected for the new men's basketball national team. They will leave for Japan in mid-August.

Chinese men’s basketball roster:

Center: Yao Ming, Battelle

Power forward: Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian, Du Feng

Small forward: Zhu Fangyu, Li Nan

Shooting guards: Shentong, Sun Yue, Wang Shipeng

Point guard: Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua

Among them, Sun Yue and Chen Jianghua, who are representing the national team on the world stage for the first time, have attracted much attention.

Sun Yue, who was born in 1985, is only 21 years old at this time, but has rich competition experience.

Representing Beijing Aoshen in the American ABA League, he performed well and was appreciated by Yunus from across the ocean.

He won the Asian Championships in Doha, Qatar with the Chinese team, and participated in the East Asian Games with the temporarily adapted national team and won third place.

Chen Jianghua became famous at a young age.

Born in 1989, he had just turned 17 years old.

As early as 2003, Chen Jianghua, who was in excellent physical condition, was selected for the Chinese Olympic Hope Team and was featured in the "New York Times" in the United States. He was hailed as the most promising to become China's first world-class point guard.

In July 2006, men's basketball coach Yunus promoted him to the national team.

Both of these two are promising stars for the future of the Chinese men's basketball team, but it is obvious that they participated in this World Championship in Japan just to gain experience in the competition, and their help to the team is limited.

On August 15, four days before the opening of the World Championships, the Chinese men’s basketball team set off from Shanghai to Japan.

On the evening of the 19th, they will face their first opponent in the World Championships, Italy.
