The Fifth Point Guard

  Chapter 593 Impact to three consecutive championships (4.3k)

  When the perimeter was in a mess, the knight stood still.

   While retaining the champion team of last season, he also signed a tough insider to supplement Paul Millsap, and the overall strength of the Cavaliers has improved.

  In the internal competition, although only a rookie, Millsap has gradually taken the lead in the starting position of the power forward.

  Drew Gooden's strength is good, but the sense of competition is slightly insufficient.

  In contrast to Millsap, there is a kind of domineering attitude of giving up to me.

  This kind of good chemical reaction is also reflected in the contention of point guards.

  Anfini Hardaway has completely rejuvenated his second spring, often educating young Dajuan Wagner in team training games.

  His physical condition completely allows him to make pull rod, gliding, dunk and other actions.

  If it weren't for being older, he would be fully capable of becoming a "penny" at his peak.

  Even when driving at night, Hardaway can drive his girlfriend like an off-road vehicle.

  The preseason and summer league games were being carried out in full swing by the teams, and when they were preparing for the new season, news of the death of a generation of heroic “Cardinals” suddenly came.

On October 29, less than 3 days before the start of the new season, the Celtics officially announced that the former coach Auerbach, who led the Celtics to 9 NBA championships in the last 10 years of his coaching career, was on Saturday, local time. Washington died at the age of 89.

  While the players deeply cherish the memory of this predecessor, they also cherish the passionate years of playing.

  Shen Tong and James are even more energetic.

  Young and fearless.

  At the press conference before the start of the new season, Shentong expressed the team’s desire to make an impact for three consecutive championships.

   "We have only one goal in the new season, three consecutive championships! I can not have the MVP, the scoring champion, I just want the championship!"

  On November 2, the new NBA season officially kicked off.

  As the defending champion, the Cleveland Cavaliers' opponent in the first game is the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves.

  The Timberwolves did not make the playoffs last year. They did a lot of moves during the offseason, but they seemed to have limited impact on the team’s combat effectiveness.

  The current Timberwolves team is still centered on Kevin Garnett, Ricky Davis is the second in charge, and the newcomer Randy Foye is also highly expected by the fans.

  But it is still very difficult for the Timberwolves to make the playoffs in the new season.

If   Garnett represents the lower limit of the team, then the second master Davis represents the upper limit of the Timberwolves.

   Such an opening game is simply a delicious meal for the Cavaliers at home.

  Before the start of the game, the Cavaliers players received their championship ring from last season at the new home quick loan center.

  Hadaway loves this hard-won ring so much, he put it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

   "Haven't you seen it?" Wagner asked.

   "Hey, yes." Hardaway replied naively.

   "See you for the first time?"

   "Yes." Hardaway nodded.

   "Have you never played?"

   Hardaway then realized that Wagner was playing with himself.

"go away!"

  For junior Wagner, Hardaway has always been merciless.

  Although the two are in a competitive relationship, they often face up, quarrel, and even spam in training matches, but in fact the two of them have a good relationship.

  Although Hardaway has recovered from the second spring, after all, his body has been abandoned for a long time, and his physical strength and energy are far less than when he was young. In Wagner, Hardaway seemed to see himself when he was young.

   So with Shentong’s matchmaking, Hardaway gave his stunts all the money, and Wagner can learn a lot from him.

  Especially in terms of offensive organization, Hardaway, who taught by precepts and deeds, imparted to Wagner the awareness of the stadium, but Wagner's own hard training can by no means be able to comprehend.

  For the Cavaliers who have won two consecutive championships, the first game of the new season has attracted much attention.

  Quick Loan Center is full of seats.

  TNT is responsible for broadcasting the game.

  The Lanshen Space, which is automatically dormant during the offseason, will be reopened before the start of the new season.

  This time, the content in the Blue God Space is a little different.

  The "Task" system displays the status of [OFF], and the "Composition" function is turned on.

  Since she has not played a game, Shentong has not been able to verify the usefulness of this "compositing" function.

  But after two consecutive championships, the attributes of Shentong’s “growth-type” items have improved again.

  In other words, Shentong’s strength has reached a new level compared to before.

  In the live broadcast room, two TNT live treasures once again appeared in front of the audience.

   "Hey, Kenny, why is Shin still in the Quick Loan Center? Shouldn't he stay at home?"

  Smith was puzzled by a sentence from Barkley.

   "What do you mean, Charles, Shin is the captain of the Cleveland Cavaliers, of course he will appear on the court."

Seeing that Smith didn’t understand his consciousness, Barkley explained: “I mean, isn’t Shin’s wife Nina Dobrev about to give birth? It’s been more than 9 months. According to the expected date of delivery disclosed by the media, Shentong’s baby girl should be born within these few days, and I thought Shentong had already accompanied him to the hospital."

   "Hey, it turned out to be this. Charles, you are quite concerned about other people's wives. Your husband is not in a hurry. What is your old man anxious about?"

  "Hey. I just care about how the Cavaliers play today."

"Well, Charles, I believe you. In fact, as long as the Cavaliers play normally in this game, it shouldn't be difficult to win the Timberwolves. The only thing to watch is what kind of wolf king Kevin Garnett will cut at the Quicken Center. data."

  When the two commentators were conducting a two-team analysis, both sides entered the field first.

  Although Millsap and Hardaway's performance in the training match was very bright, and even faintly a bit deeper in the competition at the same position, Paul Silas still arranged for Gooden and Wagner to start.

  After all, in addition to personal ability, teamwork and tactical cooperation are also very important.

  Gooden has been playing here for some time after all. Although Millsap has a better personal performance, he is still learning the tactics of the Cavaliers.

  As for Wagner, he is the future of the team, and Hardaway is more like a mentor.

  Although the mentor is good, he has reached the end of his career.

  Garnett took the ball from the referee's hands in his arms after coming on the field, stroked it repeatedly and then pressed it, and then returned it to the referee.

   "The ball feels good today."

  After finishing speaking, Garnett mad at his hands, then jumped up to shake his arms and body.

  As the Wolves, even if the team gap is obvious, Garnett will not easily admit defeat.

  In particular, the on-site championship ring award ceremony stimulated the blood of the wolf king.

  This is the coveted glory he has never seen before.

  Behind the Wolf King are Davis and Foye.

  Fuye himself did not expect that he would even start this game.

  But with his personality, this arrangement of being ordered in danger will not make Foye the slightest retreat and fear, but will stimulate his inner desire to challenge.

  At the start of the game, the Timberwolves took the lead in winning the ball.

   Attacking in the first round, Garnett got the ball inside to beat Gooden.

  Gooden, in terms of height, wingspan or strength, the counterpoint Garnett fell short.

  Wolf King leaned back on Gooden’s singles and approached the basket step by step.

  After a violent impact, Garnett immediately stopped, grabbed the ball with both hands, turned sharply and cut into the basket, and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand before the big Z made up the defense.

  This ball combines strength, skill, and flexibility.

  Wolf King only used one goal to prove his gap with the average player.

  The Cavaliers’ offense is not hurried.

  Wagner, who has been immersed in Hardaway's teachings throughout the summer, has indeed made considerable progress in organizing offenses.

   Seeing that the Timberwolves defense had a gap in an instant, they immediately made it to the basket very decisively.

  Before Garnett assisted in the defense, he made an air strike to find James.

  The latter soars into the air, spreads out his arms, and slams the ball into the basket!

  One deduction pays one deduction.

  The Cavaliers opened the game with great momentum, and did not fear any huskies.

  Garnett got the ball again.

  The Timberwolves’ offense was launched from Garnett.

  Either attack or pass, all handled by Garnett.

  With the previous experience, without waiting for Garnett to make sufficient preparations, James immediately double-sided and formed a back and forth attack with Gooden.

   Garnett immediately divided the ball, Randy Foye received the ball, facing Wagner is a long three-pointer.

  Barkley exclaimed: "Do you just catch the ball and shoot it?"

As soon as   's voice fell, Foye's three-pointer passed through the net.

"This kid is amazing!" Smith couldn't help but praised. "Randy is a rookie. I didn't expect to start in the first game. From the shooting just now, this kid has a good shot and is of psychological quality. A good player, the Timberwolves have to train well."

  After the goal, Randy raised his hands and slapped Garnett who was running over. The latter also touched Foye's head and said, "Just do it, kid."

   James’ breakthrough attack was surrounded by the Timberwolves, and the ball was intercepted by Foye before it could be lifted and passed.

  Timberwolves quickly launched a fast break.

  Fuye was very fast, but Shentong still caught up.

  Fouye almost lost the ball under Shentong's close defense.

  As soon as he let go, Foye passed the ball from the bottom of the cross to behind him, and Davis rushed to it.

  You must know that Davis was also a flying fighter in the Cavaliers.

  After catching the ball, his legs exploded straight into the basket.

  Slam dunk with both hands!

  The raised legs almost kicked Shen Tong who was at the basket.

   "You are nothing great." Randy Foye said to Shen Tong in front of him.

  Shen Tong did not expect that the rookie in front of him would dare to speak wildly to himself.

  Davis grabbed Foye and turned around and said, "Hey, dummies, don't make our game more difficult, okay?"

   "Why, I am not afraid of that guy, I am here to lead the team to win."

   "Hey, stunned, you are a rookie, you have to listen to Big Brother's opinion."

  Fuye shook his head and said: "I don't believe in anyone, I only believe in myself."

  Not far away, Garnett scratched his head when he saw it.

  After hesitating for a while, Garnett swallowed again.

  Practice is the only criterion for testing truth.

  Garnett hopes Foye can personally experience a real life completely different from what he imagined.

"I like a player like Randy Foye. I just checked the information. He played very aggressively in college, which has something to do with his childhood environment. Randy lost when he was 3 years old. He lost his father and lost his mother when he was 6 years old. It can be said that he grew up in a very difficult environment. But these hardships have made Randy stronger, his willpower has become stronger, and he has a The mind of a victor, I like him."

   Barkley, who has always had a clear point of view, has made no secret of his love for Foye.

   "Hey, Charles."

  Smith found that he really didn’t understand Barkley any more.

"I remember you are a big fan of Shentong, but Randy just provoke Shen at the basket. I thought you said to teach Randy a few words. After all, he is just a rookie and doesn't know how much water is in Cleveland. deep."

  Barkley laughed at the words and said: "Kenny, I don't need to mention this kind of thing because he will feel it on the court soon.

  Shentong outside line crossed with Wagner.

   Defensive against Foye after holding the ball.

  Davis can't wait to follow Wagner to the other side.

  Near the large restricted area on the right, a one-on-one match between Shentong and Foye was formed.

   "Come on, Shin, let me challenge you!"

   "The booklet is old, tomatoes trick or treat!"

   After all, Shentong pulls it out.

  There is no preparation before this dry pull, it is completely hard pull.

  The defensive Foye felt it was impossible to score this goal.

  No rhythm, no dribble, this ball can be scored unless

   Damn it!

  Shentong’s dry pull hollow hit.

  The Nets only made a slight "swish" rubbing sound.

After    scored, Shen Tong spread out his hands and retreated to his own half.

  Davis came over and patted Foye on the shoulder, and said, "Boy, you narrowed the road by yourself."

  I haven't realized the meaning of Davis's sentence, but Foye first raised a doubt of his own.

   "Hey, Ricky, do you know what that sentence Shentong just said? What tomatoes? What eggs?"

  Davis rolled his eyes and replied angrily: "I guess it's your birthplace."

   "Newark?"

  Davis rolled his eyes again and ran away without answering.

  Garnett and Foye made an internal cooperation over there.

   Foye hangs to the penalty area, Garnett attracts the defense, Foye immediately cut inside.

  Garnett saw the right time to send out a ground pass, Foyee took the ball and went directly to the basket.

   Before the ball was shot, it was destroyed by Shentong in the air with a slap.

  Davis could not help but muttered: "I knew it was the result."

  To prevent the Timberwolves from attacking, Shentong once again took the ball on the offensive end.

  Is the same routine again.

  Shen Tong faced Foye with the ball in one hand.

   "I'm here to vote for you."

   After finishing speaking, Shen Tong took off again and hit Foye's head again.

  Barkley laughed "pouch" and said: "Have you seen it? This is a lesson that Randy must go through. This is a completely different world from the NCAA. As for Shentong? That's it!"

  Fuye's face flushed.

  This kind of one-to-one exchange of positions is obviously aimed at oneself.

  In his long basketball career, he has never been so educated by his opponents ~www.ltnovel.com~ After being suppressed by the Cavaliers on both ends of the offense and defense, the Timberwolves immediately called a timeout.

  On the way back to the bench, Garnett took the initiative to say next to Shen Tong: "Hey, Shen, our guy is a rookie. If you don't understand, you should not be familiar with him."

  Shen Tong smiled.

   Back to the bench, Garnett frowned and said to Foye: "Dude, this is only the first quarter, and then we will all endure the storm-like blow."

  Pause ends.

  In front of Foye, Shentong talked with Garnett.

   "Hey, Wolf King, I heard that there is a new Wolf King in your team?"

   Garnett: "You can call me Husky."

  Shen Tong nodded and walked away.

  Fuye whispered: "Too bully."

   "No, in fact, even if he calls me Erha, I dare not say anything."
