The Fifth Point Guard

"Hey, man, your performance just now was amazing." Jefferson said happily.

Arenas yelled: "Dude, you didn't see that when you made consecutive three-pointers, Bobby's face turned blue."

"Hahaha."

It's nice to have buddies around.

"Sorry, I hope I didn't bother you."

A middle-aged man with a goatee came to Shen Tong and the others.

"I have been watching for a long time. I think if you are interested, you can come to our team for trial training. I can help you arrange a suitable trial training time."

The goat man handed over his business card.

New Jersey Nets, scout, Murray Hanks.

finally

Shentong got the invitation for the first trial training!

extraordinary.

Arenas and Jefferson didn't joke about STO.

"I..." Shen Tong's tone was choked with sobs.

Arenas and Jefferson looked at Shentong quietly and with a smile on their faces.

Calm down.

Shen Tong said firmly: "I am willing."

Hanks and Shentong exchanged AIM and agreed on an approximate trial training time.

"For specific matters, I will send you a message on AIM at night, please pay attention to check."

"OK."

"If you have any questions, you can call me anytime."

Shen Tong nodded.

At last.

"Mr. Shen Tong, I wish you success." Hanks said with a smile.

"Shin, you should treat me."

"Come on, don't you usually get enough applicants? This time it's your turn, Gilbert. You're a lottery pick that's firmly in the top five."

"Ah, I remembered, Richard, you seem to owe me a meal when you lost to me in the last bullfight."

"Crap!"

"When did I talk nonsense, Shin can testify."

"No, Shin, don't trust him, Gilbert must pay for it this time."

At a Mexican restaurant, Gilbert burps loudly.

Shentong settled the account.

When Jefferson said "It's time to evacuate", Gilbert mysteriously took out two beautifully packaged large boxes from his backpack.

Abnormal behavior.

Shen Tong and Jefferson looked suspicious.

Arenas smiled and motioned the two to open it.

With apprehension, Shentong slowly opened the gift box.

Not a scary doll that pops up.

It's a solid gold necklace.

what does this mean?

Shen Tong blankly looked at Jefferson who was hugging Arenas.

The other party directly put the big gold chain around his neck.

Forehead.

Shen Tong understood.

"Thank you, Gilbert."

Shen Tong also imitated Jefferson and hung a big gold chain around his neck.

A little heavy, it seems to be solid, it should not be cheap.

After hugging Arenas, Shen Tong asked, "Gilbert, where did you get the money to afford such an expensive gold necklace?"

"Hey, don't worry about that, anyway, after the draft night, I'll be a millionaire." Arenas said relaxedly.

Jefferson curled his lips, and originally wanted to say a few words, but for the sake of the big gold chain.

Shen Tong knew that Arenas regarded himself and Jefferson as real buddies.

"Didi."

Shen Tong turned on the phone.

[Mr. Shen Tong, hello, I'm Murray, on behalf of the New Jersey Nets, I sincerely invite you to have a draft trial at the Continental Arena on May 10th (this Thursday) at 2 pm. Please pay attention to the following points: 1. Do not drink alcohol the night before the trial training; 2.]

[Got it, see you then. ]

"Huh" Arenas was already snoring.

"Richard, both of you have basically secured the pick in the lottery, what's your plan next?"

"I plan to go back to the country for a while, you know, in addition to playing basketball, I like a quiet life." Jefferson said.

"Where's Gilbert?"

"I heard that he has accepted a few shows, but I think he is more suitable to develop in the entertainment industry."

"Ha ha."

"Sleep, good night, I'm exhausted during this time."

"Good night."

After a while, Jefferson's slight cry sounded.

Looking at the bright moon outside the window, Shen Tong couldn't fall asleep. He gently took out his phone and read the message from Hanks several times.

"I am back!"

"How is it, son?" Sister Hua quickly put down her words and ran over to ask.

Shen Tong had a proud smile on his face.

"I received a trial invitation."

Sister Hua's eyes turned into crescent moons.

"I just said my son will do it."

In the evening, Shen Tong looked at the unfamiliar dishes in front of him.

Steak, fried fish, fruit.

"Mom, what are you?"

"This is a standard athlete's meal. I followed the recipe. Try it."

"."

Shen Tong picked up the chopsticks and picked up the whole steak.

Bite down.

It's all meat!

The taste is perfect.

The delicious gravy immediately fills the whole mouth.

"This steak only uses a small amount of vegetable oil and a small amount of salt, but the taste is absolutely delicious." Sister Hua is full of confidence.

indeed.

Much better than the "before" taste.

"Delicious!"

On the opposite side, Shen Qing had already devoured most of the steak.

"Oh, the girls are so different, eat more modestly!" Sister Hua couldn't help but slap Shen Qing across the face.

At this time, Lao Shen suddenly picked up the bowl and stood up.

Shen Tong, Sister Hua, and Shen Qing stopped their movements at the same time, watching Lao Shen walk slowly in front of the TV.

"咵~~"

Turned on the TV.

"The award ceremony of the 58th American Golden Globe Awards is about to begin!"

Sister Hua and Shen Qing, who were originally still, seemed to be activated all of a sudden.

"Oh, I almost delayed the big event!"

"is not it."

The two quickly filled the bowl with vegetables, and then sat down on the sofa with Lao Shen in a row.

"I don't know if Jessica will win Best Actress."

"Who else could there be but her? Her performance in 'Black Angel of the End Times' is simply amazing!"

STO:"."

On May 10, the weather was cloudy.

Continental Arena.

When Shentong came here, he realized that he was not the only one who came to the trial training today.

In the office, general manager Bernard King, coach Byron Scott and scout Maury Hanks are checking the four-man roster for today's workout.

Ken Johnson, 2.11 meters tall, center, Ohio State University.

Comments: Good at blocking shots, hardworking at the basket, and doubtful about his health.

Brian Scalabrian, 2.06 meters tall, power forward, University of Southern California.

Comments: A big man with balanced skills, willing to take on the dirty work on the court, but the old right ankle injury is a hidden danger.

Rubin Bautier, 2.01 meters tall, small forward, Auburn University.

Comments: He has long-range shooting skills, but his performance on the field is easily affected by emotions.

Shen Tong, 1.98 meters tall, shooting guard, University of Arizona.

Comments: Excellent long-range shooting skills, good defense, the lore shot in the NCAA finals showed a big heart, but due to the lack of comprehensive playing time and insufficient research samples, there may be large deviations.

"Morrie, I'm not talking about you. Among the four, the one named Shen Tong is not bad, and the other three have obvious flaws." Bernard King said after reading the comments, as if he was very satisfied with Hanks' selection. People are not very satisfied.

"In fact, even Shentong has problems." Byron Scott pointed to Shentong's comments and said, "The investigation samples are not sufficient, and there may be large deviations. This is simply taking the risk of draft picks."

"Hey, calm down, it's just a second-round pick, what kind of person do you guys want me to get? You know, this year is a bad year for the draft." Hanks replied helplessly.
