The Fifth Point Guard

Shentong stepped left and right and crossed the dribble, ready to make a breakthrough.

The left hand is empty.

Like a tomcat jumping on a mother mouse, Mobley jumped on the basketball nimbly and successfully intercepted Shentong's ball!

"Look, what did I say?"

Seeing Shentong being intercepted by Mobley, Barkley yelled excitedly.

Mobley, who was in possession of the ball, immediately launched a fast break, and Francis made a double fast break.

The speed of the Rockets duo is extremely fast, and the Nets have only Kidd back on defense at the moment.

Mobley passed the ball to Francis in a fast advance, and Kidd stood on the route of the two passes, and then kept retreating.

When he reached the restricted area, Kidd moved quickly and stood on Francis' advance route ahead of time.

Want to draw an offensive foul?

But Boss Fu is not a vegetarian, and he passes the ball behind him while dribbling.

Wonderful pass to the other side of Mobley's hands.

The old cat took three steps after receiving the ball, and directly dunked his hands to the basket.

"Excellent post-up pass, Cutino must be dunking with both hands!"

In the voiceover of Barkley's passionate words, an agile figure jumped out from behind with lightning speed.

With a slap, he slapped the ball in Lao Mao's hand onto the backboard!

"Oh!" This was Kenny Smith's surprised voice.

This physical fitness is absolutely amazing!

Unfortunately, the referee's whistle blew.

Damn.

Shen Tong spread his hands.

"It was a good cap, I didn't foul."

Kidd also stepped forward and said to the referee: "This ball didn't touch your hand, you should see it clearly."

The referee shook his head, indicating that the penalty was upheld.

Mobley didn't say a word, and walked to the free throw line after high-fiving with the boss.

The old cat standing on the free throw line is still in shock.

At the moment of taking off for a slam dunk, Mobley had already made preparations for a successful slam dunk in advance, and he never considered the possibility of being blocked in his mind.

Regardless of whether the blocked shot was a foul or not, just catching up with the old cat and covering the ball on the backboard was enough to shock Mobley.

"It was a foul, and Cutino made two free throws. This defense and one offense reflected the gap between Cutino and Shentong. One steal, one foul by Shentong, and two free throws. It was a perfect round." Barkley Big Mouth is very excited today.

Smith: "Shouldn't we pay attention to Shen Tong's block defense just now?"

Barkley: "That ball was fouled."

Smith: "That's right, but the speed of returning to defense and the bounce when blocking shots, this physical quality is absolutely top-notch."

Barkley: "It's not such a big ball, Kenny, I used to do it when I was young."

Smith: "Aren't you a floor player?"

Barkley: "Kenny, how can you smear people's innocence out of thin air"

Mobley missed the first free throw.

I calmed down.

Steadily hit the second free throw.

Between free throws.

Scott purposely called Shen Tong aside, and said: "Katino is a left-handed player, so pay attention to that."

The head coach's words reminded Shen Tong.

The old cat Mobley is not only a left-handed player, but also has a very good defense. Although he is 1.93 meters tall and does not have an advantage in the shooting guard position, his fast movement is enough to limit his opponents. At the same time, his offensive methods are also very diverse. Frontal crossovers, emergency stop jumpers, three-pointers and even back-to-back shots are all good at it.

You know, when Mobley was in college, he was the best defensive player of the year in the Atlantic Division.

As a shooting guard, this is a rare and supreme honor.

For Mobley's past, Shentong is very familiar.

No way, who told him to be in the Rockets.

From Yao Mai to Spann, the Rockets have no players that Shentong doesn't know.

Over there, Smith and Barkley have finished arguing.

Although it is not known who won, there is an atmosphere of joy in the air.

On the screen, the Nets are constantly moving the ball.

The players move around the court quite a lot, picking and rolling each other.

Looks like Princeton's play.

The ball transitioned in Kidd's hands and passed to the left corner.

STO!

Standing here right now.

Through continuous movement, Shentong got rid of the old cat's entanglement.

He jumped up high and shot, even if the old cat arrived at this time, I am afraid there is nothing he can do.

Ball across a high parabola, hit!

This is a three-pointer.

3-1

Looks like a football score.

After scoring the goal, Shentong raised his hands.

Although the first possession was intercepted, today's state is very good.

On the court, Francis loudly reminded Mobley who was out of position: "Hey, buddy, that guy is a shooter, don't be confused by his bounce. We have Kevin inside, don't worry about him coming in, just keep in front of him Just don't give him the space to raise his hand and shoot!"

Mobley nodded.

Shen Tong's ears moved.

Smith: "Shen Tong has outstanding advantages. He is a very good shooter with rich outside offensive ability. As a shooting guard, he has advantages in height and wingspan. One of the advantages is that he does not occupy the ball. The ball runs actively and can always find scoring opportunities. The shooting is simple and clear, there is no redundant movement, and the shooting point is high and not easy to be interfered. At the same time, the mid-range shooting rate is also very good. Not only can it shoot three-pointers, but the assist-to-turnover ratio is very low. Good jumping and defensive performance as well."

Barkley: "It's just a three-pointer. In the NBA, pure shooters have no future. Look at Peja. They can only float outside the three-point line and shoot coldly. This is why the Kings have not been able to break through from the West. The reason is that shooting can't kill the opponent."

Smith: "I think you seem to have a prejudice against Shentong. His dunks are very entertaining."

Barkley shook his head and said, "But he hasn't earned my respect yet."

Francis broke through for a layup and tied the score for the Rockets.

Although Kidd's defense is absolutely top-notch at the point guard position, facing Francis, who can run and jump well, the gap in Kidd's athletic ability is infinitely magnified.

Martin squeezed away from Griffin and dunked successfully under the basket.

Griffin shot a cold arrow from outside the three-point line to fight back.

Mark Lodge dribbled the ball on his own foot and missed it.

Cato's close-range tip was also blocked by the rim.

As soon as the game started, the players on both sides quickly entered the state.

Nine minutes into the first quarter, Shen Tong got the ball from the bottom corner.

Shake your hands up.

Mobley flew up.

The concept of a shooter makes Mobley mistakenly think that the opponent will definitely shoot.

Shen Tong dribbled the ball straight to the basket.

Because the Nets pass the ball to drive the defense, the Rockets are in a vacuum inside at the moment.

Take-off from the edge of the penalty area.

Lift your feet, put the ball under your feet with both hands, then lift your hands suddenly, with your back to the basket and dunk the ball!

Fold the back buckle with both hands!

This is the dunk that Francis made in the 2000 dunk contest.

But Shentong has done it in actual combat.

Martin and Shentong under the basket are like the poles, involuntarily attracting each other and bumping their chests.

The Nets' bench is even more chaotic.

Jefferson's whistle resounded across the court, and Scalabrine's towel was thrown vigorously.

So what if this is the home court of the Rockets?

We are now No. 1 in the East.

"I heard you say I'm just a shooter?"

Shen Tong beeped as he ran past Mobley.

It looks like he has fully adapted to the NBA court culture.

(Thanks to the nickname is a lollipop book friend for the reward!)
