The Fifth Point Guard

  Chapter 516 The veteran is not dead! My name is Reggie Miller (chapter 4.4k)

  The Cavaliers’ rebounding started to strengthen.

  Varejao’s height is not as good as Big Z, he is not as mobile as Gooden, and he is not as agile as James, but he has his own characteristics.

   Rely on the position when the opponent is not as tall as the opponent, and rely on confrontation when the opponent is not as mobile as the opponent, and rely on small movements when the opponent is not as flexible as the opponent. In short, Varejao, who does not take the usual path, always surprises and grabs some incredible rebounds.

  Evans, who has always been head-on, is depressed.

   Say he is hard. Sometimes he is indeed hard, but when you touch him, he is soft.

   Say he is soft. Sometimes he is indeed soft, but you think he is soft and he is hard again.

  This trouble often appears in married women, but now it entangles Evans.

  For Varejao, Evans is really nothing.

  You hit him a few times, you can't do it, because this is in the game and the referees are all staring.

  With the lessons learned from the Palace of Auburn Hills, the league is now severely punishing the actions of fighting on the court.

  Evans is not willing to commit crimes against the wind.

  You scold him a few words, you can’t speak, because Evans is not Varejao’s opponent when it comes to verbal controversy.

  Varejao rushed to grab the offensive rebound. Although the action was ugly and without aesthetics, he was able to grab the rebound.

   Then, Varejao made a sulky pass from behind, after the cut, Shen Tong got the ball and turned around in the air to complete a 360° turn to the basket, which caused a burst of surprise on the scene.

   Then there was applause. Although most of them were given to Shentong, many of them were given to Varejao.

"Hey, Reggie, I actually recommend that you keep an explosive hair type like mine. It can really improve your performance on the court, and even your rebounding level can improve a lot." The energetic Varejao told Evan. Si suggested, in a very sincere tone.

  Evans pursed his mouth, his bright bald head gleaming in the light.

  Varejao’s appearance is like throwing a catfish into a pool of bali.

   promotes competition and activity.

  The Brazilian flies like a jet in any corner of the field.

  Varejao's vitality and fighting spirit infected other Cavaliers players, and even Gooden, who replaced him, actively sought to confront his opponent's body.

  The competition for rebounds between the two sides began to balance.

  After halftime, the Cavaliers have filled the hole in the first quarter.

  63-62.

  The Cavaliers lead by 1 point.

  Originally, fans thought that the Cavaliers would push their hearts out, taking advantage of their momentum to open the score in the second half.

  But in the third quarter, the Sonics team suddenly hit three-pointers from the outside like a chicken blood.

  Ray Allen, Lewis, and Ridnour took turns to bomb the Cavaliers’ basket from outside.

  Shentong is still unstoppable.

  But the firepower of the Cavaliers team couldn't keep up with the supersonic speed when it was turned off.

   James and Wagner’s outside line missed one after another, the Sonics controlled the rebound, and the gap in the score began to widen.

  When the third quarter was halfway through, the Cavaliers were once again opened by the Sonics to 7 points.

  Paul Silas, who was sitting on the coach's bench, could not sit still.

  In a dead ball situation, Silas replaced Reggie Miller on the field.

   Surprisingly, Silas was not replaced by James, but Wagner.

  Wagner's hand feeling in this game is average. He made 2 of 8 shots and only 1 of 5 three-pointers. The efficiency was average.

Lewis looked at the Cavaliers’ substitutions with his hips akimbo, and couldn’t help saying: “Hey, they replaced a point guard, but replaced a shooting guard. Could it be that Reggie came to the point guard? Or is it Yushenlai? organization?"

   Ridnour said: "If Shin plays the point guard, wouldn't it be a good thing? He has to be distracted in the organization, and the impact on scoring will be reduced accordingly."

  Ray Allen remained calm, but accidentally swallowed gum into his stomach.

  Allen: "."

  What the Sonics players did not expect was that the Cavaliers let James play point guard and Miller play small forward.

  The tall and strong James actually played point guard in high school.

In fact, this guy can play five positions in high school, but as a dominant player, playing at point guard is really overkill. High school teams need James to score instead of possession, so James only played at the point guard position for a short period of time before being assigned to the small forward position.

  However, James is not incapable of playing point guard.

  LeBron’s ball-handling skills are very adept. After all, his girlfriend met him very early and he is in a very good shape.

  On the half-time of the SuperSonics, James turned his back to Ridnour, and began to smash Ridnour with his body from outside the three-point line.

  Poor Ridnour looks like a thin pupil against James’ huge figure.

   Follow the flow like duckweed.

   His head shook with James' impact.

   James, who played from the back of the three-point line, turned and wiped to the inside, and Ridnour could not stop it at all.

  Bottom line, Shentong has slipped in.

   "Block LeBron head-on and foul him!"

   "Pay attention to the bottom line, apply for it!"

  Sonic players echoed each other on the court.

  Obviously, the gentleman combination attracts most of the attention and defense.

  LeBron's breakthrough score was given to Shentong who cut along the baseline.

  Shen Tong jumped in the air, facing the defense of the three Sonics players, and did not force the ball, but passed the ball to the outside.

  It's Reggie Miller!

  After receiving the ball, Miller stretched out his long arm and threw his iconic chest push.

   "Shoo."

  After the goal, Miller made a fist and waved.

  This is the second player after the Cavaliers made a three-pointer after the end of the first half.

  This three-pointer is too important for the Cavaliers.

   Silas nodded silently, thanking that he did not misunderstand the person.

   Then on the defensive end, Lewis' fake action was seen through by Miller, who was experienced in the game.

  While Lewis originally wanted to make a dribble breakthrough, he was cut off by Miller who had prepared in advance.

  After getting the ball, Miller immediately started to attack.

  Slow speed, advance to the frontcourt.

   handed the ball to Shentong, and Shentong divided the ball back to Miller.

  Once again from the three-point line, Miller hit his second three-pointer after playing!

  After scoring this time, Miller held up his hands in excitement and greeted the shouts and cheers from the home players.

  "In this place, I am the three-pointer. Outside the three-point line, no one is better than me!"

  Shen Tong and Allen sneezed at the same time.

  But Shentong likes Miller like this, which is what the Cavaliers need.

  1 minute later, Miller made his third three-pointer in this quarter!

  The Cavaliers overtook the score.

  Supersonic immediately called a timeout.

  Because of Miller's precise projection from outside, the Sonics had to change the defensive strategy.

   made arrangements for Miller’s defense.

  The Sonics still didn’t expect Silas’ magic trick.

  In this timeout, he replaced Big Z and Gooden, leaving only one Varejao inside!

   One big and four small lineups.

  Varejao is the only insider who is responsible for rebounding and standing under the basket.

  James, Miller, Shentong, and Wagner served as positions four to one respectively.

  Compared with the Sonics, the Cavaliers’ lineup has been transformed more thoroughly, and the rhythm is even faster than before!

  More importantly, the Cavaliers’ scoring points began to blossom.

   Benefited from the impact of the Suns’ offensive storm, Silas had long wanted to try to play the power forward position with James. Now the idea has landed and has become a reality.

  From the actual performance, putting James on the fourth position to play a fast-paced offensive and defensive transition, the effect is better than expected.

  In the first three quarters, the two sides showed almost all their hole cards.

  The fourth quarter is the time for the stars!

   Jerome screened for Ray Allen from the outside, who lifted the ball over his head and was ready to shoot.

  Shen Tong’s palm stretched out from the side and gave Alan a cap!

  For this moment, Shen Tong waited three quarters.

  Dribble habit after the pick and roll, shooting rhythm, etc.

  Because Allen's shot speed is very fast, if you want to block, you must grasp the time.

  Just after being blocked by Jerome, Shentong quickly bypassed, then took off early and covered Allen from the side.

   Judging from the shots, Shentong actually took off slightly earlier than Allen, and the latter's shots seemed to be sent up against Shentong's shots.

  Alen, who had a big cap, the Cavaliers quickly attacked.

  At the moment Allen made a shot, almost all the Sonics players were ready to rebound.

  No one thought that Allen’s shot would be blocked.

  So when all of this really happened, everyone at the supersonic speed didn't even have a back guard.

  Ridno was even dumbfounded. It was the first time in the game that he saw Allen being capped so thoroughly.

  On the court, the Cavaliers formed a fast break of 5 to 0!

  Yes, it's 5 to 0.

  Even Varejao rushed to the front court.

  Shen Tong handed the ball to James and jumped up directly, and James, who had a good heart, threw the ball into the air.

  Shen Tong arched the ball with his back, then suddenly opened, and sent a wonderful open-loop folding back buckle!

  The scene fell into a crazy ocean.

  Lewis’ shot was also hit by James, Miller grabbed the ball quickly and once again blocked the Sonics’ offense.

  Offensively, Shen Tong stepped on the three-point line to get the ball.

  Hold the ball in one hand and shake the body slightly to the right, then move the center of gravity to the left and sprint with full force.

  Allen only pushed his body for half a step before being wiped in by Shentong.

  Shen Tong, who passed Allen’s defense in almost two steps, was already like an arrow with a full bow, rushing to the basket from the string.

  Jerome and Lewis blocked simultaneously in the air.

  Shen Tong made a dodge action in the air, glide from the left to the right with a very exaggerated suspension, and then the right hand reversed the board. The ball bounced and fell into the basket very accurately.

  Evans, who was standing under the basket at the time, was dumbfounded.

  This kind of jumping and staying in the air is what he dreams of, but this kind of thing is either born with it, or he can't even think of it for the rest of his life.

  Supersonic coach Nate McMillan was also shocked. At this moment, he seemed to see Jordan playing in the Cavaliers jersey. His ability to stay in the air and his hand-changing movements made him so handsome.

  Even players of the opponent team, McMillan could not help but want to applaud.

  This ball directly suspended the Sonics team.

  In front of the bench.

"We are only leading by 5 points now, and there can be no relaxation. Although the current rhythm is on our side, the point difference is not enough to guarantee that we will win. The opponent can win back by shooting 2 three-pointers, so we absolutely cannot Relax."

   Silas kept admonishing.

  Shen Tong directly said: "There are still a few minutes, as long as the opponent doesn't double-team, I will take care of the ball."

  This seemingly arrogant remark made everyone on the scene nod in agreement.

Silas didn't say a word, because he knew that the last moment of the game belonged to a star like Shentong.

  As the second head of the team, James certainly will not refute the boss's opinion, not to mention that he is not very good at this kind of moment.

  Neither the coach nor the second boss has any disagreements, and no other players have any disagreements.

  The timeout ends and the game restarts.

  Shentong broke through one-handed dunks as soon as it came up!

  Supersonic rebounding ability is indeed very strong, but the anti-aircraft ability is too lacking, it can not prevent Shentong from flying through their penalty area at will.

  As expected by Shentong, Supersonic started the double-teaming tactic at the end.

  When Shentong attacked with the ball, Allen and Lewis stepped forward to double-team defense at the same time.

  James is standing in the empty seat in the bottom corner, waiting for Shentong's pass.

  Because Shen Tong told him that when he encounters a double-team, he will split the ball.

  But at this moment, Shentong seems to be hi.

   hit Allen on the back and swayed to the left to allow Lewis to double-team to this side, but actually made a right-turned backward jumper.

  Elegant backwards, soft shots, excellent waist and abdomen capabilities.

  This ball completely mastered the essence of Jordan's backwardness, and in terms of beauty alone, it was even worse!

   "Shoo."

  One enemy two.

   Hollow hit.

  The ball hit the supersonic speed so hard, Allen even frowned for the first time, then lowered his head and shook his head.

  Lewis also helplessly akimbo his hips, looking at Shen Tong after scoring a grimace.

  At this moment, the balance of victory and defeat began to really tilt towards the Cavaliers.

  Dubov, who had been watching the ball quietly on the sidelines, jumped from his seat excitedly.

  The fans danced and cheered for Shentong’s performance in the fourth quarter.

  Standing at the bottom corner and not waiting for the ball, James almost sneezed, but he rushed over and gave Shen Tong a high-five immediately.

  The defense has been turned into a hornet's nest, and the mentality of the offensive SuperSonic players has also been affected.

  Allen’s open three-pointer hit the back of the basket and popped straight out.

  Although Evans grabbed an offensive rebound, Lewis' outside shots were also shot.

   Jerome hit the ball to Ridnour in the fight with Varejao.

  After taking the ball, Ridnour made a long shot again and still missed!

  Shen Tong rushed to grab a backboard in the crowd.

  Advancing, encountering layers of surroundings from the Sonics.

  Shen Tong didn’t have a hot head, but passed the ball to.

  Reggie Miller!

   Miller, who hasn't shot for a long time, still feels.

   Lift it high and move steadily.

  Miller raised his hands and hit his fifth three-pointer of the game!

  The veteran is not dead!

  The point difference was stretched to 10 points.

  Excited Miller shouted at the audience on the sidelines: "Hey, guys, who am I? I’m Reggie Miller!"

  At this moment, although the game is not over yet, Ray Allen, Lewis, and Ridnour have almost unanimously determined that they have lost the game.

  The momentum is completely one-sided.

  Rhythm is not in their hands.

  Shentong’s basket and Miller’s three-pointers made them lose their confidence in shooting the consecutive misses.

  When a shooter loses confidence in himself, then it is when he completely disappears from the game.

   "Drip——"

  The end of the game ~www.ltnovel.com~ The Cavaliers, with Shentong's excellent performance, Varejao's rebounds and Miller's steady three-pointers, defeated the Sonics at home.

  118-104.

  Shen Tong once again scored 37 points and had 8 rebounds and 7 assists.

  Miller made 5 three-pointers and scored 15 points.

  Varejao, as an inside bench, although only scored 6 points, but grabbed 15 rebounds!

  In addition to Shentong, the Cavaliers' No. 2 hero who won this game is none other than him.

  Media reporters who have become accustomed to Shentong’s scoring performance, chased Varejao frantically after the game.

   Facing a reporter’s question, Varejao said with a smile: “I don’t need to know any tactics at all. I just grab a rebound and give Shentong to Shentong. He can take us to win the game.”

  After the game, Dubrov rushed to Shentong for the first time.

  In the early hours of tonight, Nina Dobrev will celebrate her 16th birthday.
