Didi didi.

There was a voice in my head.

A task appeared in front of me.

{

Main mission: Lift your butt off the bench

Mission description: Many stars stood up from the bench in their rookie seasons. I believe you are too. Hero, come on!

Task requirements: Come on as a substitute and stay on the court for at least 10 minutes

Main plot reward: Basic Attributes - 1 lottery ticket

Task status: waiting to be collected

}

When I first read the name of the task, Shentong felt that this was definitely a score-earning question.

The system is so friendly to novices!

Just lift your butt slightly...

etc.

It turns out it's not literal...

After reading the task description and requirements, Shentong felt that it was not difficult.

Just 10 minutes.

That is the time when a toothpick stirs up a big vat, a shrimp swims in the Yangtze River, an ant gets on the highway, and a stick of incense burns in the alchemy furnace.

Um...

The rewarded items look good, they should be attribute learning cheats similar to "Basic Defense Chapter" and "Basic Dribbling Chapter".

...

[Do you want to receive this main quest?]

Still need to ask?

Click [Yes.]

The task status changes from "To be collected" to "Received".

...

"Dip~~~~"

A sharp whistle sounded on the court, and the New Jersey Nets' first preseason game of the 2001-02 season officially started at the home of the archrival New York Knicks, Madison Garden Arena.

This marks that STO's journey in the NBA has finally begun!

Kambi is the same spring tool man activated by a whistle.

With a "thud", it took off.

Mark Lodge was just about to kick his legs.

Over there, Camby has already passed the ball to his teammates.

Byron Scott on the sidelines curled his lips.

Assistant coach Brett started scratching things out in his notebook.

The Knicks play a very traditional style.

Just like Jeff Van Gundy's hair style.

After gaining possession of the ball, the Knicks started their first attack and started running tactics.

Veteran Mark Jackson controlled the ball steadily from the outside and did not panic even when faced with Kidd's defense.

Alan Houston used the screen from his teammates to run from the center line to the outside line to catch the ball.

With a feint shot, the center of gravity of Kidders who was defending him was lifted.

Break through inwards.

Just one step.

Take off and shoot immediately.

Very robust.

Not to mention the two-point goal, even the net barely moved.

Shen Tong, who was sitting on the court, saw this in his eyes and couldn't help but say: "This is a master."

you do not say.

"The King of CIC" is not just a boast.

Especially the run before breaking away from the defense. He first ran to Camby's side and used the screen to get rid of Kidders, which was neat and tidy.

After getting an open opportunity, Houston was ready to receive the ball in advance, so that Jackson hardly needed to make any adjustments when the ball was passed to his hands.

Although Kidders fought hard to defend, he once again jumped in front of Houston.

But taking advantage of Kidders' psychology of chasing after him, Houston faked a shot.

Kidders was eager to pursue him, but he fell into the trap and jumped up immediately.

Houston, who picked up Kidders, avoided the opponent's defensive range.

Breakthrough to the inside.

But at this moment, Martin was already eagerly preparing to come over to make up the defense.

Before Martin's defense was in place and Kidders hadn't caught up yet, Houston made the choice to shoot immediately after breaking through just one step.

And he steadily hit a big two-pointer.

Although on the surface it looks like just an ordinary score.

But it actually contains the universe.

If it were still STO during the Peking University period, I'm afraid I wouldn't have seen so many ways.

Houston's scoring is simple, practical, and efficient, without any unnecessary movements. It can be used as a textbook for getting rid of the defense and completing the shot!

Remembering that Alan Houston is what Hu Weidong calls a traditional shooting guard, Shentong, who is eager to improve his running, will focus almost all of his attention on the Knicks on Houston.

Observe role models and apply what you learn.

...

Kidd calmly dribbled the ball forward, and just after half-court, he threw his hands and sent a long pass.

The ball was passed too high!

Just when STO thought the ball might be missed, a thick arm, connected to a big hand, caught the ball in the air with one hand and smashed it into the basket!

Just look at those calloused hands...

Shentong knew it must be a violent bird...

no.

It's a violent man, Kenyon Martin.

After scoring, Martin shook his arms and trotted back to the half court, not forgetting to high-five Kidd in the process.

With the Kidd-Martin connection, the Nets will not lack such explosive alley-oop dunks in the new season.

Let’s not talk about the record, at least it will be much better to watch than Marbury’s “one person and one person drinking wine”.

...

The Nets players have yet to recover from that alley-oop dunk.

The Knicks scored again.

Or Houston.

This time it's the bottom line.

Kidders, who had been following Houston, suddenly stumbled and almost fell down.

Just such a small episode, Houston was already in an undefended state.

Jackson, who had been on the court for half a year, had such keen insight that he immediately sent the ball away.

At a position one meter away from the basket on the baseline, Houston did not choose to step for a layup or dunk. Instead, he jumped up on the spot and threw a half basket.

This kind of half-shot is actually more difficult than a mid-range shot or a long-range shot.

The strength of mid-range or long-range shots is relatively easy to control. During daily training, fixed-point exercises are often performed.

But this kind of half-cut basket tests the player's touch and has little to do with usual practice.

After all, this kind of half-volume basket is not a conventional weapon, and few people on the court specifically practice this kind of basket.

Houston is, after all, Houston.

Alan - only shot - Houston, hit a half-interception again, and scored 2 points.

...

"Cory was seriously injured last season. Although he has not shown any abnormality in the team's training, it will probably take a long time to immediately return to the state of the season before the injury on the court," said assistant coach Brett.

whispered beside Scott.

Scott nodded and said: "It's just the preseason now, not the regular season yet. We have time to observe the players' status and make adjustments."

Shentong's ears moved.

...

The first quarter is more than half over.

The Nets and Knicks performed equally well.

The coaches of both teams did not call a timeout, but completely handed over the court to the players.

Scott and Van Gundy also took advantage of the preseason to observe the status of the players.

After Van Horn hit a mid-range shot, the official timeout expired.

The score on the court was 19-18, and the Nets led by 1 point.

...

The beautiful cheerleaders of New York's home stadium immediately rushed to the court.

She has flaming red lips, wears a light blue belt on her upper body, restraining two heavy objects, and her lower body is wrapped in white shorts, revealing her small waist. Her wheat-colored skin looks healthy and energetic.

This was the first time Shentong saw a cheerleading performance during a timeout.

A bit over the top.

In the past, during NBA pauses, all that appeared on TV were advertisements for cars, health products, and the like.

When you say "old driver", is this a new term coined by those fans who watch football every day but are forced to look at cars when they should be watching football?

...

"Hey, brother, why haven't you played yet?" Shen Qing, who came to see Shentong's performance, muttered impatiently.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shentong stood up from the bench.

...

"Shen, Richard, you are ready to play, replace Corey and Keith."

Taking advantage of the official pause, Scott, who has been observing for a while, can adjust the lineup.

The opportunity has come!
Chapter completed!
