Shen Xiao only brought James and Nash to the post-match press conference.
"Congratulations on winning this match. Shen, what was the reason that allowed your team to easily defeat the Kings?" asked a reporter from the television station.
"I think... it should be the result of the whole team working together.”Shen Xiao said.
"Stephen Nash, I would like to ask you about your transfer from the Mavericks to the Cavaliers. Is it because of Shen's big contract?" A reporter from the BBC looked at Nash and asked a question.
"It's not just that. Shen was a very good coach. He was often able to get along with the players, chatting and laughing.”
"The atmosphere in the locker room is great. I really enjoy playing in the Cavaliers.”Nash smiled brightly.
After the press conference ended, Shen Xiao did not have time to rest. He had to lead the team and fly to the next away game overnight.
Phoenix, Phoenix!
They would play against Stephon Marbury and Shawn Marion, as well as the Phoenix Suns led by Stoudemire.
In this battle, Shen Xiao replaced Battier and let " Da Zuo " Mo Ning play the 4 position. Sure enough, it worked wonders from the start.
Mourning, who had miraculously recovered from kidney failure, went all out to teach Stoudemire a lesson and declare that he was the king of the center in the 1990s!
Continuous dunks, blocked shots, and rebounding. Mo Ning beat the coachman up. He only managed to get a pitiful three points by relying on free throws.
Mourning had a total of eight points, five rebounded, five blocked shots, and two fouls.
After that, Nash launched another seven-second attack strategy, creating a flurry of rapid counterattacks!
James had only played for a while in his last game before he punched out. He had been holding back his energy, and this time, he was going to unleash it all against the Sun.
Receiving a pass from Nash in the air, James leaped up and grabbed the basketball axe with his right hand. It was as if he wanted to smash the blue hoop before he would stop!
"Ya ~ Haha, this feels so good!"
After James landed, he high-fived Nash with a happy smile on his face.
Jenner connected! This was the first time he had seen results.
On the Suns 'side, Stephon Marbury and Shawn Marion began to rely on this player's ability to break through the perimeter and make a sudden stop jump shot from mid-range. They wanted to avoid the double-team from Mourning and Howard.
3 out of 11, only 6 points.
Of course, Iguodala's solo defense against Marbury had a huge effect. Marbury continued to force his way through. His throws and pull bars were all interfered with by Iguodala and did not go in.
The Suns 'paint was strangled by Mourning and Howard, and the perimeter was tightly guarded by Iguodala's death.
The Cavaliers relied on the seven-second offensive strategy. James got 10 points, Nash got 6 points, and Howard got 4 points.
Miraculously, they managed to score a score of 20-6.
Shen Xiao asked for a short pause when there were 2:45 seconds left in the first quarter.
"Alenzo, go down and rest for a while. Battier, you go on stage and defend against Stoudemire. Shen Xiao held a bottle of Gatorade in his hand and personally handed it to Mo Ning.
"Hu…Okay."
Mo Ning nodded and covered his head with a towel. After all, he was getting on in years. A 34-year-old veteran was not as strong as when he was young.
"Iguodala, you go down to rest. Lagabel, when you get on the field, defend Stephon Marbury well. Remember, if you can't do it, foul me.”
Shen Xiao turned around and walked in front of Rajabel, instructing her personally.
"Okay, coach." Ragabelle nodded and said with a serious expression.
"Nash, after you dribble to the front, pass the ball to James, and then you start running without the ball. And Dwight Howard, to get a high pick-and-roll to get an empty spot.”
Shen Xiao picked up the tactical board, sat in front of Nash, and drew a rough offensive route with a pen.
The high pick-and-roll at the 1 and 5 positions, the empty cut, attracted the attention of the Suns 'defensive players.
Nash nodded and understood Shen Xiao's intentions. He was a player with a high IQ.
As the brain of the team, he could efficiently complete the tasks assigned by the coach.
…………
This season, most of the ball power was concentrated on Marbury. It could be said that even though the Suns also played small ball tactics. But Marbury was a malignant tumor.
Then, the pause ended. Shen Xiao's substitution had a certain effect.
Like a piece of dog-skin plaster, Lagabel stuck to Marbury's side and pressed on like a mad dog until the last 3.2 seconds.
Marbury had no choice but to forcefully shoot, but he missed all three shots.
"Attack quickly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nash received the ball and saw James 'number 23 jersey rushing past the half court.
"Le Bulang, catch."
Nash threw the ball hard and a long pass passed over James 'head.
James jumped on the spot, his right hand five fingers spread out to suck the basketball, and his feet had just landed.
An easy mid-range shot, a jump shot, and a hollow net.
Swoosh!
Then, the rhythm of the game was firmly in the hands of Nash and James. Nash passed the ball like a ghost and directly tore through the Suns 'defense.
James continued to receive empty balls and dunked to score. Jenner connected and once again succeeded!
The countdown ended in the fourth quarter, and the entire arena buzzed.
The Cavaliers won 112-98 against the Suns and won their second away game.
In this game, James and Nash had to clock out for three quarters.
James had 21 points, five rebounded, three assists, and a double-double.
Howard had 11 points, 15 boards, four blocks, and three fouls.
Iguodala had 15 points, 2 assists, 6 rebounding, and 1 steal.
Nash had 17 points, 10 assists, two steals, and one of three three-pointers.
Gerrard Wallace had 12 points, three boards, and two blocks.
After attending the post-match press conference, Shen Xiao did not even catch his breath. He led the Cavaliers to board the private plane again and flew to the next away game overnight.
On November 1st, they would play against the Blazers in an away game, with only one day between them.
In other words, starting from October 29th, there would be three consecutive away matches.
On the plane, the players were a little tired and fell into a deep sleep.
This was also because Shen Xiao had sent out all the substitutes in the second quarter, allowing the main lineup to rest for an entire quarter.
The next day, at 5 am, the plane landed in Orlando.
Shen Xiao personally woke up all the sleeping team members."Hey guys, wake up. We're here."
"Hu…Shen, I'm really sleepy now. I really want to sleep."
James opened his eyes reluctantly and turned over.
"James, don't sleep here. We'll be sleeping when we get back to the hotel!”
"We have one day. You have half a day off today. Go back to the hotel and have a good rest.”
Shen Xiao gathered his energy and clapped his hands hard as he shouted.
"This afternoon, three o'clock. Focus on the adaptability training."
James sat up straight, his eyes narrowed as if he was still sleepy.
In the end, under Shen Xiao's urging, James and Nash. Iguodala and the others finally got off the plane.
