The Fifth Point Guard - Chapter 599

  Chapter 601 Spurs are dirty (4.1k)

  In the second half of the first quarter, Shen Tong was not obsessed with individual scoring, but used a pass to break up the Spurs’ defense.

  The overall view of the pass made Popovich on the sidelines crazy.

  Know that the basis of the Spurs’ foothold on the court is their defensive system.

   Defend the opponent first, and then use the advantage of the stone Buddha in the positional battle or the sports car and the demon sword in the fast break to attack the opponent.

  But his own backyard caught fire first, which affected not only the defense, but also disrupted the offensive rhythm.

  But Duncan is Duncan after all.

  There can be parallel champions in the league, but there will never be parallel MVPs.

One minute before the end of the first quarter, Duncan suddenly showed his MVP style on both ends of the offense and defense, first with a big Z under the basket on the defensive end, and then immediately went into the fast attack, receiving Ginobili’s return pass. High hit to complete a fast break dunk.

   Then on the defensive end, he cooperated with Ginobili and Bowen to successfully interfere with Shentong’s breakthrough layup, and then the offensive end strongly beat Gooden and scored 2+1.

  After making an additional free throw, Duncan scored 6 points in a row, rewriting the score between the two sides to 24-26, and the Spurs trailed by only 2 points.

  At the beginning of the second quarter, both sides switched to the bench.

  The second team that the Spurs are proud of includes Elson, Horry, Barry, Finley, and Udry.

  Finley is the core of this lineup, Udri organized, Horry and Barry are responsible for cold shots from the outside, and Elson is responsible for dirty work and fights.

  You know, in this Spurs team, Bowen dares to provoke anyone, but he dare not provoke Elson.

  This guy is a character.

  He is the seventh Dutch player in NBA history to play in the league.

  Netherlands, it’s a paradise for men.

  Being able to insist on playing basketball in the Netherlands shows that Elson is definitely a tough guy.

  His strength is indeed worthy of the NBA. As early as his boyhood, Elson was already a member of the Dutch national team under the age of 20.

  Played for the Nuggets for three years, mainly playing as a substitute. In the third year, he averaged 4.9 points, 4.7 rebounds and 0.6 blocks per game.

  The strength seems mediocre, but being able to enter Popovich’s eyes is bound to be particularly extraordinary.

   Originally born in the Netherlands, Elson is not only good at playing in life, but also very good at fighting on the court.

  In a game with the Timberwolves, the second-year Elson directly clashed with the Timberwolves top card Kevin Garnett.

  He used a serious hug and fall when Garnett hit the basket and threw Garnett directly onto the seat behind the basket.

   Garnett immediately stood up and turned his head towards Elson. The two erupted in a fierce verbal conflict, which resulted in physical friction.

   was first started by Elson.

  Garnett will fight and retreat, coping freely.

  He is familiar with this scene.

  After being separated by the referee, the mouth between the two is still dirty.

  Not long after, when Garnett attacked, he turned and raised his leg and hit Elson in the groin, and the latter fell directly.

  This also gave Garnett a technical foul.

  And Elson then got up directly on his own, and started spraying each other with the wolf king.

  Such performance attracted Popovich’s attention.

  Following Bowen and Horry, Popovich introduced the third dirty man for the Spurs, Elson.

  These three formed the “Ebori” (love violence) group.

  In the summer league, preseason and the first few regular seasons of the new season, the Spurs’ second team pull points are even more advantageous than the first team.

   But what they didn’t expect was that the Cavaliers’ second team didn’t fall behind.

  The five-man combination of Varejao, Millsap, Marshall, Smith, and Hardaway even firmly prevailed.

  This lineup is centered on Millsap and Hardaway, Marshall and Smith are responsible for outside firepower, and Varejao is responsible for the dirty work and performance.

  Millsap’s scoring method is very similar to that of Karl Malone. He and Hardaway’s pick-and-roll cooperation even won the main lineup in the internal training game.

  The second-spring Hardaway was very good at pick-and-rolls during the Magic, and his partner with Millsap is a perfect match.

   And Hardaway’s passing and overall view also benefited Millsap.

  It is even more difficult to complete the blockade of these two people two on two.

  When the opponent increases the defensive input, the outside firepower of Marshall and JR-Smith will make them lose sight of the other.

  But the most interesting thing on the court is actually the matchup between Elson and Varejao.

  Elson’s hot temper makes him not afraid of anyone.

  Varejao’s professional performance made him not afraid of anyone.

  Elson turned around strongly, and Varejao fell down.

  Elson was stunned, thinking that when I go back to the Netherlands during the offseason every year, the firepower is not so fierce. It has fallen down before it even starts?

   After making two offensive fouls by Elson in just 5 minutes, this made the brutal Elson cry without tears.

  ”Hey, you clown, can you stop acting? I make me feel sick. If I have the ability, I will do it with real swords and guns!”

  Varejao gave Elson a slanted look and replied: “Do you think this is the Netherlands? And I am not interested in you.”

  Elson: “What is it?”

   Elson and Varejao did not rub against sparks over there, but Horry is competing with Millsap here.

  Rookie is the best bully.

  Horry is not a good person. Seeing that he is a rookie, he must of course “educate” him.

   “Hey, what’s your name? Baby? Or brother?”

  While talking, Horry also hit Millsap with his body.

  It is said that Millsap ignored him at all, ran to the outside to make a pick-and-roll with Hardaway and then received Hardaway’s pointer and succeeded in a mid-range jumper.

  After the goal, Millsap glanced at Horry with contempt and ran away.

  Horry didn’t know that his provocation was a cliché for Millsap, with no effect at all.

  At Millsap’s house, he also has an older brother and two younger brothers. As the second child in the family, Millsap connects the past and is often bullied by the elder and younger brothers.

  Why was bullied by younger brothers, because these four brothers have basketball experience, and Millsap has always been the shortest one in the family.

  So when he is playing outside, people often tease him. Are you the fourth child in the family?

   Even at home, Millsap was ridiculed by the three brothers.

  So Horry’s trash talk is almost like “have you eaten” or “walked around” to Millsap.

  However, although the individual is the shortest, Millsap’s talent for playing basketball has gradually emerged, and is far superior to his other three brothers.

  When the second team finished, the Cavaliers widened the point difference to 8 points!

  This made Popovich a little speechless.

  The second team originally expected, but lost points instead of chasing points.

  When Duncan and other main players were rotated, many fans at the Spurs home court booed.

  They are obviously not satisfied with the performance of the Spurs.

  Shen Tong took over his teammate’s musket, and immediately attacked Bowen when he came up, and caused a foul by Duncan’s thug at the basket.

   made two free throws.

  The score difference in this game reached double digits for the first time.

   Bowen, who was regarded as nothing by Shentong, looked down and his expression became gloomy.

  Not long after, in the first attack of the Cavaliers, Shentong and James made a wall-to-wall cooperation.

  James turned his back against Ginobili to make a single play, Shentong lobbed the ball to James.

  The Spurs immediately contracted the defensive circle, including Duncan and Parker both double-teaming to James.

  Who knows they just raised their foot, James didn’t even get the ball, so he passed the ball back to Shentong.

  Faced with Bowen’s defense, Shen Tong made a dry jumper.

  Elegant shooting posture, slender arms span, draw the ball at the fingertips.

  Everything is beautiful and picturesque.

   “Shoo.”

  The wonderful sound of hollow threading through the net also rang.

  Just when everything is perfect, just listen to the “click”.

  Shen Tong clasped his ankle and fell to the floor with a very painful expression.

Next to    is Bruce Bowen with an innocent look.

  You don’t need to ask to know what happened just now.

  James and Wagner immediately rushed to Bowen.

  Wagner even pushed Bowen’s chest with a palm, and then James also pushed Bowen away.

   Both have an angry expression.

   Duncan and Ginobi interest rate stopped in front of Bowen first.

  James didn’t give Duncan face at all, he directly took Duncan and asked Bowen.

   “You rubbish, did you do dirty things again, right? I think the league should abandon your dirty feet!”

   Bowen spread his hands and said, “Hey, don’t spit, I don’t know what happened just now, I’m just playing defense normally.”

   “Fak squid, you are simply unrepentant. The Spurs’ ability to win the championship is entirely based on a dirty foundation!”

  Wagner also spouted to Bowen mercilessly.

  In the face of Wagner, Bowen was less polite.

   “Hey, pay attention to your words, you are just a small follower of Shen, you are not qualified to evaluate us like that.”

  Big Z and Parker also joined the chaos.

  ”Bruce, if you have the ability, you can be a real player. What do you mean by playing black feet? Are there few players in the league that you have abandoned? You are careful to have a son without a p-eye!”

  Parker excused his teammates: “It’s really a misunderstanding. After the league investigation last season, Bruce has completely converged.”

  At this time, the referee and the players have separated the most excited James and Bowen.

   “You rubbish, don’t leave after the game is a man, I want to show you some color!”

  James is really angry.

   Bowen is still the innocent look of harmless humans and animals, shaking his head constantly, but he dared not look at James directly.

  The expression made it, as if it was James who was bullying.

  The referee will replay the video of the game just now.

  Everyone on the scene also looked up at the big screen.

  On the screen, Shen Tong jumped up and hit the ground just after making a shot. His right foot stepped on Bowen’s feet. Then Shen Tong showed an expression of extreme pain, clutching his ankle and fell to the ground.

  When Bowen was defensive, he took a step forward after Shentong took off. Although his eyes were looking toward the basket in the direction the ball flew out, his feet did not retract. Instead, he probed forward again.

  In this way, tragedy happened.

  Even at the Spurs’ home court, the fans on the scene booed.

   Cavaliers coach Paul Silas has a pale face and deep frowns.

  Looking at the playback on the screen alone, I know that Shentong’s injury is probably going to be recuperating for a while.

  After the playback screen ended, Silas rushed to the technical stage very angrily, pointing to the Spurs bench and shouting loudly, as if he was outraged at Bowen’s blatant and repeated stepping behavior.

  Even though Duncan and Bowen were chasing after the referee to explain something, the referee ignored them and directly sentenced Bowen to a malicious foul and sent him out of the field!

  James and many Cavaliers applauded while shouting at Bowen who was sent off.

   “You are a rubbish, just like your head coach.”

   “You don’t deserve to play in the league at all.”

   “You have no friends, and you will never get the best defensive player!”

  ”The way you play is just as bad as your character!”

  Shentong came to an end by the stepping incident.

  Shen Tong, who was helped back to the locker room by Hardaway, was being examined by a doctor.

  Fortunately, Shentong did not hurt the bone this time, but because of the contusion, he had obvious symptoms of congestion in his right foot.

  ”Doctor, how is my foot condition?”

   “Don’t worry, there is no bone injury, but I’m afraid I have to rest for a week. After the swelling subsides, I can play again.”

   Hearing the doctor’s answer, Shen Tong and Hardaway both let out a sigh of relief.

   “That **** bastard, I must find a chance to fix that guy.” Shen Tong.

  ”Shen, you can rest here. I’ll go back and report your situation to the team. We will pick you up when the game is over.”

   “I went back with you, but I didn’t hurt my bones anyway.”

   “Wait.” The doctor suddenly said, “I suggest you stay here temporarily. I will find some ice cubes for you to make an ice pack, which will reduce your swelling and pain a lot and help your recovery.”

“Ok.”

  Back to the court, Hardaway informed the coach and players of the situation of Shentong inspection.

  Hearing that no bones were hurt, everyone was relieved.

  Because of Shentong’s injury, Silas let Smith come on the bench.

  The Cavaliers without Shentong are no longer the Cavaliers with two championships.

  The Spurs without Bowen are still the Spurs who can compete well this time.

   Bowen was very successful in one-for-one exchange, which gave the Spurs an advantage in the lineup.

  In the first half, the Cavaliers’ leading score was gradually recovered by the Spurs ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and then the Spurs overtaken in the third quarter.

  In the middle of the fourth quarter, the Spurs opened the point difference to double digits.

  Shen Tong, who was in the treatment room, couldn’t sit still.

  He lifted his right foot out of the ice bucket, touched the swollen ankle with his hand, and barked his teeth.

   Trembling, Shen Tong stood up shaking his body, and then gently tried to touch the ground. If he didn’t deliberately poke the swollen place with his hands, it didn’t seem to hurt that much.

   “Hey, Shen, why are you standing up? Sit down quickly, your feet still need to be iced.” The doctor hurriedly came over to Shen Tong and told Shen Tong.

  ”Doctor, trouble you. Use gauze to help me wrap the injured area tightly. I have to go back to the arena.”

   “Are you crazy? How can you play with your feet swollen like this?”

   “You don’t have to worry about it, just do it, although I don’t want to risk playing on the court because of a regular season, but this game won’t work.”

   “Why?”

   “I just can’t get used to his self-righteous and winning look.”
