The Fifth Point Guard

  Chapter 515 Controlling the rebounds can control the audience (4000 words)

  The task of this game is actually very arduous.

  Not to mention defeating the Sonics, but also to kill people!

  This is to completely convince the opponent.

  However, it can be seen from previous games with the Suns that the Cavaliers do not actually have much advantage against this fast-paced shooting team.

  The Suns' 1 win and 1 loss in the first two games is proof.

  The Seattle SuperSonics and the Suns this season are also 1 win and 1 loss.

  Ray Allen even averaged 30+ in two games.

  In this game, Shentong must perform well.

  Paul Silas stood on the sidelines with his arms folded, staring intently at the big Z and Jerome who were about to jump the ball in the middle circle.

  The height of Big Z has certain advantages, but Jerome's physique is obviously stronger than Big Z.

  Looking at the position of the power forward again, Gooden is almost a full lap smaller than Evans.

  For this kind of shooting team, if you want to control the initiative of the game in your own hands, you must control the rebounds.

  In addition, in terms of scoring efficiency, you must always be on the same rhythm as the opponent.

   Silas can’t help looking at the bench. The key to this game may not be Shentong, or even the players on the field.

  But two people sitting on the bench.

  Afro and old bald heads.

  Amid the cheers of the home fans, the game officially started.

  Big Z used his height advantage to give the Cavaliers the ball.

  Wagner quickly advanced to the frontcourt.

  The task he received in this game is actually very simple.

   Fast forward and play fast break with the opponent.

  The first goal of the Cavaliers is usually played by Shentong.

   At a 45° angle on the right, Shentong holds the ball in one hand after receiving the ball.

  James stepped forward for the pick and roll.

  The front and rear spaces are formed after the two side wings pick and roll each other.

  Shen Tong made a ground pass, passing the ball through the gap between Ray Allen and Lewis.

  James pulled up directly after taking the ball and dunked with both hands!

  He doesn't need to face Evans in front of him.

  Because this guy is as tall as himself and has almost no ability to block shots.

  The Cavaliers take the lead.

  James scored a dunk from Shentong’s wonderful pass.

  The Sonics are not in a hurry.

   Ridnour organizes the ball.

  Ray Allen pushed Shentong away, then ran from the bottom line to beyond the three-point line.

  Shen Tong chased in time, but was blocked by Evans.

  Allen shot directly after receiving the ball.

  The wrists of both hands that jumped to the highest point flicked.

  The ball is shot at a very fast speed.

  Shen Tong glanced at this hand speed, he knew that Allen didn’t play too much.

   "Shoo."

  Allen's hollow three-pointer passed through the net.

  After scoring a goal, he looked relaxed, chewing gum while smiling back to defense.

   "Good shot." Wagner couldn't help but praised his opponent.

  "Well" Shen Tong did not stingy in complimenting his opponent, saying, "The few guys in the league today who can threaten my three-point shooter."

  James: "Ah!"

   Cavaliers attack, James breaks to the inside and then points the ball to the top of the arc.

  Wagner pretended to shoot after receiving the ball, but passed it to Shentong on the left.

  Shen Tong did not stop after receiving the ball, and after taking a step forward with his left foot, he directly pulled out a three-pointer.

  The arc of the shot is somewhat flat, but it is still accurate to hit the inside of the back edge of the basket and bounce into the basket.

  5-3

  The Cavaliers did their part, and Shintong responded with a three-pointer.

   But the supersonic side will hit again immediately.

  Lewis’ outside shooting fakes shook James.

   After the dribble, it flashed out of space and made a long-distance two point.

  Shen Tong quickly said to James: "Hey, LeBron, don't think about blocking them, just stand in your place."

"Ok!"

  In the first two rounds, both sides scored.

  5-5

  But the next round, the situation on the field began to change.

  Shen Tong broke through and encountered a double double team, and scored the ball to James.

  James was interrupted by Jerome's close-range shot, and the shot went wide. Evans grabbed a backboard.

  This ball is the first time a team has missed an offense since the start of the game.

After    came to the Cavaliers halftime, the Sonics' offense also came out of the basket.

  Ray Allen’s shot was interrupted by Shentong and missed.

  However, Jerome grabbed the rebound.

  Next, Jerome distributed the ball to Ridnour, who was leaking defense at the moment.

Ridnour made a decisive three-pointer from the outside.

  At the supersonic speed, Ridnour was jokingly called the three masters.

  In addition to Ray Allen and Lewis, they sit firmly in the third place.

  In addition to his good scoring ability, the most important thing is that he can assume the role of the third fort besides Allen and Lewis, and he is also the orthodox organizer of the team.

  The next offense of the Cavaliers, Shentong used the big Z's cover and went straight into the penalty area to complete a two-handed dunk in actual combat!

  The momentum of the ball was so strong that it immediately brought the atmosphere of the scene to its peak.

  On the defensive end, James also allowed Lewis to miss the basket for the second time.

   But a surprising scene happened.

  With Big Z and Gooden occupying a favorable position under the basket, Evans didn't know when he suddenly broke into the circle of the two.

   And used his powerful body to fight, but he had a hole in the crack.

  Then set up a posture, almost one to two, with Big Z and Gooden stuck behind!

  Next, Evans used his not-so-good bounce to force other players to get valuable offensive rebounds.

   points the ball to the outside, Lewis takes another shot and hits!

  After the first four rounds, the score between the two sides was 7-11, the gap was not big, but Paul Silas still noticed a scene he didn't want to see.

  Rebounds!

   The Sonics grabbed two offensive rebounds at the beginning of the game. This is actually a very big blow to the Cavaliers.

  Even after Evans grabbed the offensive rebound, Shentong also reminded Big Z and Gooden to pay attention to the position of the basket.

  Although the coach and the team deliberately paid attention to the protection of rebounds, after the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers still got 6 offensive rebounds by the opponent!

  2 Jerome and 4 Evans.

  The worst is Gooden, who ended the first quarter with 0 rebounds.

The Cavaliers also trailed the Sonics by 5 points, 23-28.

  Now that the expected problem is found, the card prepared in his hand must be played.

   Shortly after the opening of the second quarter, Silas pointed to the bench and Anderson Varejao replaced Gu Deng on the field.

  During the time when the Big Z was resting due to injury, Varejao performed quite well as the team's starting center, especially the rebounding point, which was favored by the team and the coaching staff at that time.

  In fact, Varejao, who is 2.11 meters tall, can play two positions inside.

  At this point, when Gooden was again rebounded by the Sonics, Silas finally couldn't bear to make a substitution adjustment.

  Although Gooden feels good today, losing rebounds is fatal.

  After all, on the court, especially in this kind of fast-paced shooting game, the team that controls the rebound can control the whole court!

  Varejao took the initiative to talk to the opponent Evans as soon as he came on the court.

   "Where is the brother from? I'm familiar with Nata, Tieling! I can give you a discount if you give me my name for dinner!"

  Evans: "."

  The dull Evans has only one thought in his heart at the moment, this guy is a fool.

   at this moment.

  Varejao suddenly disappeared from front of him.

  The next second, when Evans' eyes shifted to the basket, Varejao had already completed the rebounding game.

  This is the Cavaliers’ first offensive rebound in this game!

  Shentong also immediately returned the body in the same way.

  Dry the three-point line after receiving the ball.

  Easy shooting posture, straight calf, soft touch and fingertips.

  The ball hits the net.

  At this moment, Evans is a little confused.

  Defensively, Varejao stuck Evans.

  Sonic shot missed, Varejao used his best to defend the basket!

  Afro worked at this moment.

Originally Evans was 8 cm shorter than Varejao, and Varejao’s afro was squirming back and forth on Evans’ bald head. This not only affected Evans’ sight, but also made Evans’s The mood is affected.

"what!"

   Accompanied by Varejao's roar, the boy directly rushed out of the bottom line.

  The referee immediately blew his whistle, and then met Evans with a bewildered look.

   Realizing that the referee was blowing his foul, Evans immediately showed an unbelievable expression.

   "Hey, I haven't moved the ball just now!"

   "Nonsense, I saw it all, you must be jealous and hatred in your heart because of Anderson's hairstyle!"

"how do you know?"

  "."

   "Ah, no! I was just fighting for the position behind me, and I didn't push him out with such exaggerated force."

   "Then you must have wanted to push him out."

   "Yes, I have thought about it, but"

   "Look at it. My whistle is to kill this malicious foul in the cradle!"

  Evans didn’t argue when he heard that the referee was so reasonable.

  After all, the referee is ready to make a T gesture

  After suffering a loss, Evans finally turned his head.

  Since the temper cannot be vented on the referee, it must be retrieved from Varejao!

   "Hey, Anderson, you are miserable, I am eyeing you! Next I will teach you how to grab a rebound!"

   Evans fiercely provoked.

  However.

  Varejao turned around and immediately took Evans's hand.

  At that moment, there was gratitude in his eyes.

"Thank you, Reggie, I have always regarded you as my idol. I know that your rebounding skills are very deep. I have always wanted to learn from you, but I have nowhere to go. Now you are willing to teach me that it is better. I can’t ask for it! I will study hard, and I will definitely live up to your wishes."

  Varejao’s heartfelt words moved Evans, the "ancestor".

  At that moment, Evans even really flashed the idea in his mind, that is, whether to really teach Varejao to grab a rebound.

   And when Evans decided to accept the Brazilian with an explosive head, the opponent had already grabbed a second offensive rebound and handed the ball to Shentong to complete the cut-in layup.

   "Ah!!! You dare to tease me over and over again!"

  Evans is really angry.

  Even on the street courts of the former slums, playing with guys a few years older than themselves on a field, no one dared to tease him like this.

   "Hit me, pounce on the street, I am not afraid of you!"

  Varejao pushed back very hard.

  It was the Sonics’ turn to attack. Evans made a wonderful back-to-back turn and instantly walked around Varejao, his elbows were raised, and his position was stuck.

  This is a wonderful turn card position.

  But the moment Evans grabbed the basket and raised his elbow, Varejao fell.

  Yes, he fell again.

  But at this moment, he is real.

  The referee whistled Evans for an offensive foul.

  Because he hit Varejao in the face with his elbow when he was stuck.

  No one thought that after Varejao's hard response, Evans would actually fight.

  However, this was his second foul in just 1 minute.

  Varejao got up from the floor and shook his head vigorously. It seemed that he was not acting.

  It turned out that at the moment Evans raised his elbow, it was Varejao who took the initiative to bring his face closer to the opponent's elbow.

Evans’ elbows did hit Varejao’s face, but the Brazilian is so thief that when the elbows were about to hit him, Varejao pulled back in time, eliminating 90% of his strength. .

   However, in response, Varejao seemed to have suffered a 120% crit.

  On the defensive end, Evans said nothing.

  He already knew the tricks of Varejao.

  I want to distract myself in various ways, and then take the opportunity to steal the rebound.

  This time, he will never be fooled!

  James’ approach to throw is too difficult, and the ball bounces high on the basket’s neck.

  Evans immediately leaned against Varejao with his back, while holding down the bottom plate, so as not to give Varejao, who has a height advantage, a chance to take off.

In the rebounding competition, many floor-flow power forwards with sufficient strength but unable to bounce still averaged 10 rebounds per game. The main thing is to rely on the card position and physical confrontation to stop the opponent from taking off, and then use themselves to enrich The floor flow experience beats the opponent.

  Evans is also a player of this faction.

  However, Varejao's ability to fight from Brazil to the United States does not rely solely on artistic cells.

   Just when Evans got stuck in the position, Varejao seemed to abandon the fight for this position and withdrew to leave.

   Just when Evans felt no pressure on his back, this guy unexpectedly resorted to the trick that Evans did just now, turning around very wonderfully.

   immediately walked around in front of Evans.

  Next, Varejao jumped high and took off his third offensive rebound in this quarter!

  This ball is really worthwhile!

  Evans was very surprised inside.

  What's the matter?

   Shouldn’t it?

how can that be?

   After Varejao grabbed the offensive rebound ~www.ltnovel.com~ Due to the previous two experiences, the players who originally surrounded the SuperSonics in the penalty area immediately spread out and rushed towards the players outside.

  This time, Varejao did not score the ball. Instead, he easily filled the basket with one hand and scored 2 points without being defended.

Silas couldn't help but nodded.

  There are not many inside players who can use their brains to play basketball. There are not many in this league. This Brazilian kid is worth training.

  "You guy. You have such a hand. Your name is Anderson Varejao?"

  Evans seems to be unable to believe that he is really the Cavaliers' Brazilian rookie this season.

  Varejao is now majestic.

   "Acho is dead, you picked it, idol! Now in front of you is the rebounding overlord Anderson Varejao!"

  Evans: "."

  The momentum is compelling.

  It’s terrifying.
