The Fifth Point Guard

Chapter 410 Ma Ma, here I come again (first update)

Mike D'Antoni brings small ball tactics.

When he first arrived at the Suns, he brought some changes to the team.

First, Antonio McDyess of the Pistons was traded to the Suns to serve as the starting center.

Then, he corrected Leandro Barbosa and shared the playing time of the back line as the sixth man.

Marbury's playing time was significantly shortened.

This of course caused Marbury's dissatisfaction, but D'Antoni was very determined.

Either improve efficiency, or listen to the coach honestly.

The result of 1 win and 2 losses is naturally not convincing.

The Suns currently have internal and external troubles, and people are divided.

But after all, this Suns team once shocked the Spurs into a cold sweat in the playoffs last season.

Therefore, the Cavaliers did not dare to be careless.

One hour before the game starts.

Cavaliers locker room.

"What does it mean not to have?"

"Don't every participating player have a family ticket?"

"Your staff has promised me that they will arrange it before!"

"The game starts soon and you tell me I don't have a ticket?"

"Hello?!"

"grass!"

Shentong pressed the phone hard and threw it into the cabinet.

At this moment, other Cavaliers players have already gone to the court to train, only Shentong is still in the locker room.

It turned out that Shentong had previously called the Phoenix Suns Marketing Operations Department and asked for a few seats for Lao Shen and his team. When the other party heard that it was Shentong, they were very polite and said they would arrange the seats, but there was still 1 hour left in the game. At the beginning of the hour, a staff member from the other team suddenly found Shentong on the court and informed him that there were no more tickets. This made Shentong very angry. He immediately returned to the locker room and called the Phoenix Suns marketing manager. That’s the conversation above.

Shen Tong tapped his fingers on his legs and took out his cell phone from the closet.

"Hey, Susan, please collect some scalper tickets for me. I want as much as you want!"

Back on the court.

Shentong immediately started warming up, stretching, running, and shooting.

Wagner asked James strangely: "Why is Shentong so serious today? I have never seen him so serious during warm-ups in the past."

James said: "I don't know, but if Shen is serious, the Suns may be in trouble tonight."

Half an hour later, Susan, the team's public relations manager, came to the sidelines.

"Shen, it's done."

Seeing Susan make an "OK" gesture, Shen Tong felt relieved.

"Susan, please help me bring my family in."

Susan nodded and went out.

As soon as Susan left, James, who noticed something was wrong, came over and asked: "Shen, what happened? I just saw that you went back to the dressing room in the middle of the trip, and your expression looked wrong when you came back. Can you tell me something?" "

Shentong angrily recounted what the Suns had done to him.

James was also very angry after hearing this.

"It's so unjust to do this. It's obvious that I'm trying to trick you!"

Wagner appeared out of nowhere.

"Isn't that right? You don't take care of people like this!"

James shook his wrist and said: "Tonight we will have a battle with Phoenix."

Wagner: "Day!"

Soon, Wagner spread the news about Shentong's experience throughout the team.

Everyone felt that the Suns had gone too far.

After all, it was the team's star who was being bullied, which clearly showed that he did not take the Cleveland Cavaliers seriously.

The whole Cavaliers team was very angry and couldn't wait for the game to start, so as to give their opponents some color.

Shentong gathered all his strength and waited for the whistle to start the game.

According to the lineup announced before the game, the starting five of both sides are as follows.

Cavaliers: Big Z, Boozer, James, Shentong, McGinnis.

Suns: McDyess, Stoudemire, Marion, Johnson, Marbury.

The lineups of both sides remain unchanged from previous games.

Compared with last season, the strength of the Suns' starting lineup has actually increased.

A versatile veteran like McDyess is very suitable to partner with the young Stoudemire, while Johnson's growth and running without the ball can better help the team and suit Marbury.

In addition, the Suns also have strong players such as this year's Brazilian rookie Barbosa and former Magic ace Anfernee Hardaway on the bench.

On the sidelines, Mike D'Antoni rubbed his mustache.

Against the Cavaliers, D'Antoni already had his own plans.

Big Z is tall, James and McGinnis' baskets are unstable, and the Suns' small-ball tactics and fast-playing whirlwind are very restrained by the Cavaliers.

Although there are quite a few criticisms about Marbury's passing, D'Antoni is actually very satisfied with the Suns' lineup.

During the holidays, players like Stoudemire, Marion, and Johnson will surely become the backbone of the Suns.

As long as one or two good players can be put into operation before the start of next season, the Suns will definitely be reborn next season.

As for Marbury.

D'Antoni touched his forehead sadly.

It is tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away.

"Brother!"

"Er smash!"

A familiar voice came from the sidelines.

Although the sound was weak, Shentong's keen hearing captured the signal.

Seeing Lao Shen, Hua Jie and Shen Qing in the audience from a distance, Shen Tong waved vigorously to the three of them.

After blowing a kiss to his relatives, Shentong became even more angry.

He turned to look at Susan at the bench.

The message in Shentong's eyes: Why did you buy a location so far away?

Susan's eyes responded to the message: It's good to be able to buy tickets in such a short time.

Shen Tong was angry inside.

It's okay to bully me, but it's not okay to bully my family!

Phoenix, you asked for this!

Before the start of the game, STO took out the last halo.

Leopard Group Aura: Increase running intensity by 20% (reduce the physical consumption required for running, increase the number of effective runs, etc.)

Aren’t you playing small ball tactics?

Aren't you very good at running?

Come on, let's compete.

Today, either I will run you to death, or I will run you to death!

Players from both sides stand still.

STO’s four auxiliary cards have been spiritually bonded to the Basketball God Space’s dolls as required.

Made eye contact with both Marion and Marbury.

Shentong: Mama, here I come again!

Marion:

Marbury:

The referee sounds and the game officially begins!

Big Z grabbed the ball for the Cavaliers in the battle with McDyess.
