The Fifth Point Guard

  Chapter 495 Stoudemire's provocation (first more)

   "Boys, don't patronize and fight with them for speed. When we are defensive, we must put them into position as much as possible." Paul Silas said to the players who came back from the field.

"It's not easy, Paul. They have a rhythm from beginning to end. They receive and serve, receive the ball, turn into a fast break, and launch. It only takes seven or eight seconds from the bottom line to the shot. Our position has not yet fallen. They shot." James said.

   "Da Juan." Silas shouted.

   "Yes." Wagner immediately took a step forward.

"Have you noticed that almost all the Suns offenses are launched around Nash, so I want you to lead the defense and not give him the opportunity to easily advance and pass the ball, do you understand?" Silas ordered Tao.

   "Hmm!" Wagner nodded heavily and took this difficult task.

  The timeout ends and the players of both sides return to the court.

  Wagner's lead defense did make Nash's speed a little bit slower, but the speed of the entire Suns was not affected in any way.

  Because during the timeout, the Suns coach D'Antoni replaced Johnson with "Lightning" Barbosa and added a point guard.

  When Nash was tightly pressed, Barbosa used lightning speed to dribble to the frontcourt, which made Shentong helpless.

   After reaching the frontcourt, the Suns used running positions and screens to create opportunities for Nash to catch the ball.

  It is almost impossible to want an NBA player to not even receive the ball.

  Otherwise, guys like Kobe and Tracy McGrady, other teams would have passed the one-for-one way of not allowing the ball, and then beat the Lakers or the Magic with four on four.

  From the moment Nash received the ball, it was almost 6 seconds before the Suns completed an offense.

  This time it was a three-person collaboration between Nash, Stoudemire, and Marion.

  Have previous experience in pick-and-roll prevention. After changing defense, Varejao gave a false shot and pretended to block, delaying Nash's shot, and then immediately turned around to follow Stoudemire.

  Wagner, who is also good at speed, flashed in front of Nash.

  It looks like the Suns failed this two-person pick-and-roll, but unexpectedly, the Suns still have back players.

  Nash did not stop the ball and passed the ball to Marion on the other side. After receiving the ball, Marion gave the ball to the inside and pushed the ball to the basket with both hands.

  Stoudemire who had just arrived in the penalty area jumped up, catching Marion's pass in the air, and then dunking to the basket!

  At the same moment that Marion passed the ball, James, who was facing him, had already predicted Marion's intentions in advance.

  Turn around, run up, accelerate, take off.

  James opened his big hand, ready to give Stoudemire a fight.

   Really think this basket belongs to yours, so you can buckle it if you want!

  Stoudemire caught the ball in the air and dunked to the basket.

  James also took off at the same time, and the big hand greeted Stoudemire.

"Snapped!"

   "Boom!"

  Two sounds are simultaneously transmitted throughout the arena through a microphone bound to the basket.

  I heard very clearly in the live broadcast room.

  "Dididi"

  The referee's whistle sounded.

  James sat down on the ground, Stoudemire looked down at him, and the referee pointed at James and made a defensive foul.

  Faced with James’ defense, Stoudemire not only completed a dunk, but also scored 2+1!

  "Who am I? I am the best rookie, the invincible bully under the basket, the pick and roll king, and the second Malone!" Stoudemire shouted excitedly.

  The players of the Suns came forward and high-five Stoudemire.

  Shen Tong ran to James for the first time, pulled him from the floor, and patted James on the back at the same time.

After scoring the goal, Stoudemire seemed to be a little overwhelmed. When he was standing at the free throw line and preparing for the free throw, he was still muttering: "Someone is so stupid who dares to cover my dunk. Does this guy want to live? It’s just going to die at all."

   James immediately retorted: “Hey, don’t think that it’s great to dunk a basket. If you want to show off here, you’re still too early.”

"Really? But why do I feel that the ball that I just dunked on your head just now deserves what I'm talking about here." Stoudemire did not stop, and continued to spray, "Oh, by the way, you reminded me. It seems I should dunk a few more on your head so that you can hear Cleveland’s cheers for me dunking, and these cheers are not for you."

   "Enough, shut up!" Shen Tong said.

   "How old are you, do you really think you are the boss of the team?" Stoudemire said angrily, "Yao has been overtaken by me, and soon you will be too."

"what?"

  Faced with Stoudemire’s provocation, the blue veins on Shen Tong’s forehead burst.

   Stoudemire took the ball and said backwards: “Actually, I didn’t regard Yao as my opponent at all. The best rookie belonged to me. As for you, I will soon surpass you.”

After all, Stoudemire looked at James and said, "Oh, yes, you are also the best rookie. It's a pity that the quality of the best rookie last year has really become lower."

  Shentong: (へ╬)

  James: (へ╬)

  Barbosa asked Nash: "Where is he so angry?"

  Nash said, "Maybe it's been a long time."

   Amare Stoudemire, when he first came to the Suns, he was used as a blue-collar.

  At that time, almost all of the ball was in Marbury's hands.

In the rookie season, Stoudemire and Yao Ming both played well and made the playoffs with the Suns. Stoudemire felt that he was the best rookie player at the time. Who expected Yao Ming's background in China Let him get a lot of support, including public support from Shentong, which almost wiped out Stoudemire's best rookie.

  So at that time, Stoudemire also expressed a lot of complaints to the outside world, but was criticized by the pro-Yao media.

  Although Stoudemire finally got his wish and won the trophy for the best rookie, he and Yao Ming, Shentong and even Chinese players and the media took over their feuds.

  Since then, Stoudemire and Yao Ming have become "rivals for life."

  Last season, Stoudemire and the Suns fell into a slump, and they were also belittled by many Chinese media and reporters who had spoken before. Some even re-discussed the issue of the ownership of the best rookie, which made Stoudemire very upset.

The new season has ushered in Nash, who is selflessly delivering cakes. Stoudemire feels that his shackles are completely released. He has never played so comfortably on the court ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ grievance plus averaging 27 per game in the first three games The score of 13 rebounds gave Stoudemire enough confidence to challenge Shen Tong, who represents the highest level of Chinese players, and Shen Tong's deputy James.

   There is a saying that it is not too late for a gentleman to avenge him for ten years.

  But Shentong does not abide by these stereotypes, and generally has grudges, and he retaliates immediately.

  Break through with the ball, facing Stoudemire's defense, Shen Tongfei started!

  Left hand, pay attention to the left hand.

  Dodged Stoudemire's block in the air, Shen Zhongong completed a wonderful dunk with his left hand!

  The decibels of cheers on the spot immediately flooded the stadium.

After scoring, Shen Tong turned his head, glared at Stoudemire, and said: "The one who completed the left-handed dunk in front of you just now is Shen Tong II, the reincarnation, the male **** of sports, the Chinese, the king of Cleveland, and the best of Peking University. Debate, young and ignorant senior knight, ten outstanding young people in Chinatown, and good socialist boy!"

  Stoudemire: "."

  So many names shocked Stoudemire!
