The Fifth Point Guard

"Huh..." Da Z and Gu Deng gasped.

Their opponent in the first half was not easy, but it was an inside giant, the undisputed No. 1 center O'Neal.

Haslem: So I don't deserve to be an opponent, do I?

James was also very tired and kept drinking sports drinks.

Eddie Jones has the strength of an All-Star himself, and he has rich experience, plus James has to constantly help defend, so the physical consumption is also very large.

Wagner was relatively relaxed. His matchup Damon Jones didn't put him under too much pressure. When Wade was a point guard, he was opposed by Eric Snow, who was a more stable dribble.

As for Shentong...

He actually fell asleep...

"Huh...huh..."

"Fuck!"

Wagner jumped up when he heard the call, and it turned out to be Shentong.

"This guy actually fell asleep in the middle of the Eastern Conference finals?"

James came over and took a look.

"Hey, really, I slept soundly, and I left saliva on the corners of my mouth..."

Gooden couldn't help saying: "He can fall asleep during such a tight game, he is really amazing."

Big Z also said: "That means young people can do it, like me, I can't sleep in bed at night."

Just when everyone was talking about it, Reggie Miller, who had never expressed his opinions in the locker room, spoke.

"You may not know that sleep is the fastest way to recover physical strength. In the era when I first entered the league, players often slept for a few minutes during the intermission to recover their physical strength. Michael did this. ."

In fact, the future Stephen Curry did.

Generally speaking, speaking is very powerful.

This is the locker room boss.

After all, Reggie Miller has been in the league for nearly 20 years. Although he has never won a championship, he still has his own "Miller moment", big and small.

After listening to Old Miller's words, everyone couldn't help showing thoughtful expressions.

Shen Tong opened his eyes and found that everyone around him was looking at him, with a trace of reverence in his eyes.

Shen Tong rubbed his eyes and said, "I'm sorry, I was a little excited last night and suffered from insomnia, so I was a little sleepy just now, so I can make up for it."

Everyone: "..."

......

In the second half, the Heat did not conceal anymore, and began to attack the Cavaliers inside.

O'Neal sent the explosive meat and eggs on the ground, hitting the inside twice in a row, completely ignoring the defense of the big z, and even knocked the big z to the ground in the second strong attack.

Barkley couldn't help saying: "Watching stars in the regular season and superstars in the playoffs. There is no doubt that Shaquille is a well-deserved insider. Big Z is not an opponent at all. The Cavaliers should consider double-teaming."

Smith also commented: "Big Z can beat other teams in the East, but in front of Shaquille like a paper man, he can easily be knocked away. I think even double-teaming is not necessarily useful. , Neither Drew Gooden nor Anderson Varejao can really stop the big shark that has entered a brutal state with Big Z."

After being penetrated by O'Neal twice inside, the Cavaliers really used double-teaming again.

O'Neal took the ball inside, and Big Z and Gooden double-teamed at the same time.

But O'Neill was a flexible fat man, he saw him leaning on Big Z and turning around flexibly. While squeezing Big Z into the penalty area, he smashed away from the Gooden who came to double-team him.

Only the basket is left.

O'Neal holds the ball in both hands, and when he picks it up, he will send a dunk. Who knows that he heard the sound of "pop" just as he raised his hand!

How loud is this!

O'Neal only felt a pain in his hands and the ball was blown away.

Who dares to destroy?

Looking back, it was a harmless face.

Shen Tong smiled and raised his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I broke the rules."

Reaching out without hitting the smiley man, O'Neal had to walk straight to the free throw line.

As soon as he raised his hand to push the ball out flat, O'Neal found his right wrist was very painful.

Look down, clear five-fingerprints.

This guy... made it clear that he was ruthlessly destroying his offense.

O'Neal took a deep breath and pushed out the free throw again.

"Dang" again.

Missed two free throws.

Big Z grabbed the rebound.

On the offensive end, Shen Tongxing dribbled the ball in between, using the changing rhythm to hardly break Wade.

Shentong's breakthrough speed was very fast, even Wade, who was the "Flash", was quickly thrown away.

Faced with O'Neill's blockade, Shentong had no fear and went straight to it!

Hard to the big shark!

This boldness, this taste, is definitely not an unusual way.

With his left hand against O'Neal, his right hand held the ball and extended his long arm. When the opponent violated his own cylinder, his right wrist shook and hooked the ball to the basket.

"drop---"

"Huh."

While the referee's whistle sounded, the ball hit the board into the basket.

Shen Tong sat on the ground, raised his head and smiled.

This is a 2+1!

And it was made when facing O'Neal straight to the inside.

Gund Arena seemed to have been lit with a fuze, and it fryed instantly!

"STO!"

"STO!"

The slogans are endless.

O'Neal also seemed to marvel at the ball that Shen Tong had just made. He stood silently beside the penalty area amid the loud slogans, with his hands on his hips and said nothing, then stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his right hand.

On the live broadcast interface, the scene of Shentong beating O'Neill to become 2+1 was played back.

Barkley couldn't help but said with emotion: "Only Shentong can complete such a goal. Look at this powerful aerial body confrontation ability and stagnation power, as well as a soft and excellent shooting touch. It can integrate all of these in one and be in the sand. It is too difficult for Quill to score the ball under a foul, which highlights Shentong's personal ability."

Smith said: "I remember that the Lakers and Heat have always played very fiercely this season, but even Kobe has not been able to make such a 2+1 in front of O'Neal, let alone want to be in front of O'Neal before. The dunk was overturned by Vince Carter."

......

Shen Tong took a deep breath and slowly threw the ball out.

Additional penalty hits.

The Cavaliers went ahead again.

O'Neal once again missed the inside line, the ball was transferred to the outside line, Wade grabbed the ball and stopped a jump shot, but missed the basket.

James protected the backcourt rebound.

The Cavaliers immediately switched from defensive to offensive.

When O'Neal attacked just now, he was surrounded by four people.

There are Big Z and Gooden in front, James and Shentong outside.

This kind of lineup doubles, and Da Luo Shenxian can't even think about scoring.

Although O'Neal tried to prove it by force, it was obviously not enough to score.

After Wade received the ball, there was an open opportunity. Although he is better at breaking through, the inside line is already full at this moment.

But he has to vote for the open chance, otherwise he will lose face.

So even if the shooting stability is not enough, Wade still shot.

......

Shentong scored a three-pointer against Wade's defense and the score was pulled to 5 points.

Stan Van Gundy couldn't sit still on the sidelines.

Finally, O'Neal stormed to catch up with the score, and the result was once again pulled away. If the Cavaliers had an advantage in the third quarter, it would be too difficult to make an away game in the fourth quarter.

Van Gundy came to the sidelines and greeted the players on the court: "Defensive 22, defensive 22."

This is the tactical code name of the Heat.

Defending 22 means double-teaming the player at position 2.

The tactical intention is very simple, this is the defense against Shentong.

Wade just took advantage of Haslem's screen to break through to the basket in a flash, and the Cavaliers have quickly delivered the ball to the offense.

Just after Shen Tong received the ball, the Cavaliers double-teamed.

However, unlike the narrow space for inside players, as an outside player, Shentong has plenty of space for autonomy.

Lateral dribble acceleration, plus the screen of teammates.

Shen Tong, who left Wade, faced the two Heat players who had just stepped forward. A low dribble passed through the crack in the wall between Eddie Jones and Haslem!

Faced with O'Neill, Shentong took off early, rode horseback and archery in the air, and threw a projectile.

O'Neal looked at the ball above the top of the backboard and could only sigh with emotion. At the same time, he said with emotion that this throwing shot is really high...

"Huh."

As accurate as a guided missile, Shentong's high projectile basket passed through the net.

At that moment, Buckley said a word involuntarily.

"The Heat can't help it."

......

The Heat called a timeout.

On the bench, O'Neal was furious.

"Damn it, can't you score one or two goals?"

Wade drank a drink without squinting, Eddie Jones covered his head with a towel, and Damon Jones lowered his head and said nothing.

As if he hadn't been relieved yet, O'Neal continued to yell: "They used two or even three to double-team me. It is already very difficult to double-team me, but your double-teaming Shentong has been unable to prevent it. It’s fine if you don’t score on the offensive end, and the defensive end has become a colander.

O'Neal's dissatisfaction made all the Heat players dare not speak.

"Well, lads, now is not the time to complain." Van Gundy stood up, eased the atmosphere, and said, "Shen must double-team. It is not Dwyane's responsibility to defend him. Other players, regardless of Whoever is the closest must go forward and encircle immediately, and absolutely cannot give Shen a chance to start the first step!"

"Yes!"

......

On the Cavaliers side, Paul Silas also made a bold substitution.

The game restarted.

Eddie Jones' breakthrough did not find a suitable opportunity, turned and left the penalty area, passing the ball to O'Neal.

O'Neal played hard after holding the ball, but found that the guy behind could barely move!

This is rare.

Looking back, no one?

Look down, fucking, short and stout!

No one else, it is the "Tractor" Robert Treller.

Although he is only 2.03 meters tall, Treler has weight, strength, low center of gravity, and low chassis. A big center like O'Neal really feels a little bit weak.

Trelle and big z, this combination of tall, one short, one thin and one strong, made O'Neal feel the feeling of offensive weakness.

The throw after the inside jump was slapped out by the big z!

This blocked shot caused an exclaim on the scene.

Barkley exclaimed excitedly: "This block is very exciting. Big Z told Shaquille with this big cap that the penalty area is not what you want to come, you can come if you want!"

Shen Tong attacked with the ball, and just after halftime, he encountered a tighter double double team.

On the left, Dwyane Wade; on the right, Eddie Jones.

It looks like a defensive scene of Sondo Akira facing Rukawa Kaede + Sakuragi Hanado.

Shen Tong saw that there was no flaw at all, and then passed the ball again.

Wagner missed a breakthrough attack, the ball was shot out of the penalty area, James picked it up and then attacked the basket, but was completely covered by O'Neal, the ball to the outside, Wagner missed a three-pointer.

After encountering a more targeted double double team, O'Neill and Shentong fell silent almost simultaneously.

But Haslem of the Heat has repeatedly grabbed rebounds.

During this period, the offensive efficiency of both sides is not high, but the Heat are gradually approaching the score.

......

This is not the way. The Heat's offense is biased towards the basket and O'Neal has potential inside. Both Jones and Wade can break through to the basket and score a layup.

The Cavaliers' offense is off the outside, coupled with the deterrence of O'Neal inside, the offensive efficiency is naturally not as good as the Heat, which is closer to the basket.

Wagner thought about dribbling the ball from outside, and wondered how to deal with this ball.

At this moment, Shentong put Wadeka behind and reached for the ball.

Wagner understood and immediately passed the ball to the bottom line.

After James received the ball, he dropped the ball into Shen Tong's hands.

All other players opened up, so Shentong once again formed a one-on-one situation with Wade.

Leaning on Wade, Shen Tong began to fight back.

One click, two clicks...

Turn around suddenly and lean back for a jumper.

Two parallel lines at an angle of 45° to the ground appeared in front of everyone.

Shen Tong leaned back and Wade blocked.

The ball flew out along Shen Tong's soft fingertips and hit firmly.

Wade puffed up his cheeks, his cheeks that were not small at first appeared bigger.

In the next round, Shen Tong beat Wade back again.

The flexible footsteps tricked Wade, turned and wiped it into the basket, threw the ball out before O'Neal blocked the shot, and hit the board.

In the third round, Shen Tong swung his right shoulder, but turned to the left.

Wade, whose focus was deceived, was too late to adjust his body.

After scoring three goals, Shen Tong not only led the Cavaliers to open the score, but also seriously undermined the confidence of the Heat.

Just imagine, the team’s All-Star outside line was beaten repeatedly by the opposing players. How much of your team’s spirit can be left?

At the end of the third quarter, relying on Shentong's individual singles, especially the backward jumper, the Cavaliers hit 26-19 in a single quarter, pulling the score apart in one fell swoop.

In the fourth quarter, the Heat failed to launch effective resistance, especially O'Neal, suddenly facing Treler, unable to start.

Trelle's appearance had an unexpected effect, and O'Neal seems to be more effective than Big Z or Varejao.

94-82, the Cavaliers have always been in control of the rhythm of the game, and they performed better than their opponents and successfully won the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Shentong scored 34 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks in this game. His performance was very comprehensive, and his scoring was the best.

Heat insider Big Mac O'Neal scored 23 points, 16 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks, and his performance was also very impressive, but most of the data that was helpless came from the first half and the first half of the third quarter~www.NovelMTL.com~ The performance in the fourth quarter was not good.

The second master of both sides.

James contributed 17 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 blocks.

Wade had 19 points and 9 assists.

......

After the game, a Chinese reporter was given the opportunity to interview O'Neill and asked him to comment on Shentong's performance.

"I feel like I'm playing against Michael Jordan, and Shin is really unstoppable tonight."

O'Neal said helplessly.

Barkley commented on the game. He said: "Shentong should be called Michael Shen tonight. I believe that not only me, but also the opponents feel that Shentong tonight looks like Michael Jordan in the second three consecutive championships. , He cracked the Heat’s double-team defense with back and leaning back."

"Yes, Charles." Smith said, "Tonight's game seems to be Michael Jordan playing in the Cavaliers' No. 25 jersey."
