STO's recent performance has been incredible, averaging 40+ points per game and ranking first in the scoring list.

But there are quite a few players who are scoring prodigiously this season.

Kobe, Iverson and even Anthony all averaged 30+ points per game.

Players such as Tracy McGrady, Carter, Arenas and others also averaged more than 27 points per game.

In this environment, undercurrents are surging in the alliance, and people's thoughts are stirring...

Many people are uneasy.

...

Andrew Bogut, the first Australian No. 1 draft pick.

When he first landed in the NBA this year, Bogut was so arrogant that even his own compatriot David Anderson looked down on him, thinking that this kid was too jumpy.

When it comes to strength, Bogut does have it.

As early as 2003, as a member of the Australian youth team, he represented Australia in the World Youth Men's Basketball Championship. He played in a total of 8 games, averaging 26.3 points and 17 rebounds per game, showing an astonishing performance.

Dominant, and eventually led the team to win the championship, and was elected MVP of the World Youth Championship.

At a young age, he broke the monopoly of the top European and American teams and stood on top of the world. It seems natural that Bogut, who became famous at a young age, is high-spirited.

In the summer of 2004, Bogut represented the Australian men's basketball team at the Athens Olympics, averaging 13.7 points and 9 rebounds per game. Before entering the NBA, Bogut was already being pursued by many NBA scouts.

Some scouts have named the next superstar from outside Europe and the United States.

Some experts even compare Bogut with STO and believe that Bogut's future is better than STO.

There was no way, at that time, most people still believed that the development of inside players would be better than that of outside players. After all, those who can play inside will win the world.

In the 2004-05 NCAA season, Bogut has become a major killer in the NCAA league.

Averaged 20.4 points, 12.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.8 blocks per game, shot 62% from the field, and ranked first in the NCAA with 26 double-doubles!

Such data puts Bogut's starting point far ahead of Shentong, who barely made it into the league in the second round by relying on a buzzer beater.

At the end of that season, Bogut ranked first in the Associated Press All-Pro voting, was elected the Associated Press and ESPN Player of the Year and the Naismith College Player of the Year, and won the John Wooden Award.

The favored Bogut has locked up the position of the No. 1 pick in advance. However, Bogut, who has a higher ambition than the sky, is not convinced by STO who compares himself with him.

Who is Shentong?

He is just a Chinese player who scores well and is very flexible.

In the future, I will be a superstar like O'Neal who dominates the entire league!

Therefore, without being invited, he sneaked into Shentong's villa training camp with Marvin Williams, whom he had greeted, just to see how good Shentong was.

As a result, people were "invited" out of the door before they even warmed up.

Bogut was ashamed of this incident.

It's simply a shame and a shame.

From that moment on, he and Shentong were at odds with each other.

In addition, the Australian media were outraged when they learned that their "proud son of heaven" had been humiliated by an Asian player.

With the media adding fuel to the fire and fueling the flames, STO has become Australia's public enemy.

This also led to the intensity of the game between the Cavaliers and Bucks.

The game on the court has not yet started, but the online battle has already begun.

There have been several battles between Chinese and Australian netizens, with each winning and losing.

Even the media on both sides are tit for tat.

On one side, he posted a piece of news that said, "The scoring title is not the ceiling for a rookie season," and on the other side, he immediately responded with a message like, "There is only one person outside the United States who can claim the throne."

Although this is STO's fifth season in the league, Bogut, in his rookie season, thinks he is ready.

"He can come over at any time and I will accompany him at any time."

"He is nothing special, he is just an Asian player."

"NBA championship? Not bad, but he has never won a world championship."

Bogut, who was kicked out, left many classic quotes in front of the media.

The most famous sentence was put on the front page of the sports section by the Australian media on the morning of the game.

"He is just a clown, I will beat him until he shows his true colors!"

Quite manic.

...

As for the provocation of the Australians, naturally there are media who are not too concerned about the excitement and come to join in the fun.

After someone recited Bogut's remarks in front of STO in an embellished manner, he asked STO what his opinion was and wanted to go back and write another hot news article about STO's response.

But Shentong was silent for a while and asked: "Andrew Bogut? Who is he?"

Under the reporter's dumbfounded expression, James, who was sitting next to Shentong, burst into laughter.

Squeezing next to STO and grabbing the microphone, James said: "Andrew's opponent is our Big Z."

After saying that, he looked at Varejao not far away, pointed at the Brazilian and said: "No, it should be him. Let him beat Anderson first."

Seeing Shentong, James and the interviewing reporter suddenly looked at him. Varejao quickly put on his casual pants, covering his flowery pants, and showed a shy smile.

...

During this period, STO's scoring momentum has been very strong, and James' position as the second leader has been very stable, but Wagner, one of the "Big Three", is not very happy.

His recent performance is far from outstanding, or even very stable.

While the level of Shentong and James is increasing sharply every day, it seems that I am still treading water.

On the first day of training in Milwaukee, he was even given a big block by Eric Snow, who had no jumping ability, which caused a lot of ridicule from everyone.

"Why..."

After rinsing and changing into clothes, Wagner couldn't help but sigh.

He raised his head and saw that there was no one else in the locker room except himself.

Standing up, Wagner put his backpack behind him and was about to return to the hotel. At this moment, a person pushed the door open and entered.

"Shen? You haven't left yet?"

Shentong's training shirt has become soaked again.

"Oh, I just went to practice shooting for a while."

After saying that, Shentong took off his shirt and long johns directly, and rushed into the bathroom wearing only his underpants.

Wagner took a closer look at Shentong's training clothes that he had taken off, as if they had been soaked in water.

This was less than an hour after Shentong changed clothes and went out.

This guy already feels so good, but he still needs to practice more by himself every day.

In the words of Guangdong media reporters, isn't this just "pretending"?

In the second bath, Shentong took a quick shower.

"Hey, Dajuan, why haven't you left yet?"

Wagner showed a hint of trepidation and said, "Boss, there are some things I want to talk to you about."

Shen Tong, who was all dressed in tendons, put on his shirt, glanced at Wagner, and said, "Why, do you feel a little confused about your recent state?"

When Wagner heard it, he was really amazed!

Can you guess this?

The boss is the boss.

"Yeah, Shen, I haven't played very well recently. My form is up and down, and there's no continuity. Even my performance in the last few games hasn't been as good as that of Eric Snow, who came on as a substitute. I think so.

If the fight continues, I'm afraid I won't even be able to keep my position as the main force."

Shentong put on his pants, stood up and picked them up, and said: "Playing is just playing, don't think about other things. What you have to overcome is your vanity, your desire to show off, and what you have to deal with is those who always want to be in the limelight.

Be clever. Throw away those flashy things and you will find the truest you."

After saying that, Shentong put on his backpack and walked towards the door of the locker room.

Looking at Shentong's back, Wagner suddenly felt that the figure was so tall that he ignored the orange that Shentong put in his hand.

The figure of Shentong slowly walking towards the locker room was so majestic and full of energy that even Wagner couldn't help but stare at him, his eyes full of admiration.

Shen Tong lowered his head and glanced at his watch, then suddenly took a big step and staggered towards the door, without the free and easy temperament and tall demeanor he had just now.

After opening the door, Shentong did not forget to say something to Wagner: "Da Juan, damn, the last bus to the hotel will leave in one minute!"

After saying that, there was a "bang" sound, and Wagner didn't even wait.

Wrong day!
