Chapter 166: Coach, I Want to Play Breakthrough
Some things seem to be really that simple, but when they are done, they are not so simple, and sometimes it is much more difficult than you imagined.
Just like these 5 successful breakthroughs, a slap can be counted, but it may be more than 5 breakthroughs.
However, the goal is already there, even if it is ten, hundred, or even thousand, Shangguan Yu still has to work hard.
In the next round of the Knicks' offense, Calderon finally proved his strength as Spain's main point guard, and his combination with "Bomb" Navarro made many teams very troubled.
Because both of them have comprehensive skills, and they can shoot and make balls.
This time, Calderon used a precise three-pointer to show people his skills as the Knicks' starting point guard.
Shangguan Yu served from the bottom line and followed Smart through the half, but this time he didn't sink into the bottom and come out again.
"Give me the ball. ”
Shangguan Yu leaned on Lance Thomas to ask for the ball, and Smart did not hesitate and stuffed the ball over. Shangguan Yu raised his hand and motioned for the others to pull away, because in order to break through, the space must first be pulled apart. Taylor Zeller understood what Shangguan Yu was going to do, and came over to cover as soon as possible, and Shangguan Yu brought Lance Thomas to Taylor Zeller's body.
The two blocked and dismantled together, and the defensive players continued to swap, and the defensive Shangguan Yu became O'Quinn.
Shangguan Yu immediately killed the inside line, and he didn't shake O'Quinn this ball, but Shangguan Yu still chose to be strong. The two fought physically in the air, but in the past two days of study, Shangguan Yu's breakthrough layup technique has been greatly improved. This time, Shangguan Yu used a pull-up layup, and O'Quinn couldn't block it.
The action is done well, but the feeling of shooting is still a little worse.
The ball bounced off the basket and then bounced off, but the rebound was held by Tyler Zeller and the Celtics regrouped their offense.
Turner received an assist from Crowder and scored a layup with the ball.
is also a breakthrough layup with the ball, Turner completed it much easier than Shangguan Yu, and it seems that he still hasn't practiced well.
Shangguan Yu shook his head helplessly, but he already understood that when he broke through, he needed to have more changes.
The Knicks were menacing today, and they didn't mean to be restrained, and this time it was Anthony who stepped up.
As the leader of the team, he barely took a shot in the early part of the first quarter.
Now it's him with half of the bench, and he can shoot with impunity, rely on his body to crush it, and Anthony makes a turnaround jumper near the baseline.
In the next round of the Celtics' attack, Shangguan Yu once again took the ball, and it was a little difficult to break through this goal. seemed to understand that Shangguan Yu insisted on breaking through, so O'Quinn and Lance Thomas blocked his breakthrough route in advance. Shangguan Yu didn't choose to force it, so he could only pass the ball out.
The sound hit the west, a beautiful second pass, and Crowder received the ball and stepped to the basket.
The Knicks asked for a timeout, and before Coach Stevens laid out the tactics, Shangguan Yu said, "Coach, I want to play breakthrough today." ”
"This," Coach Stevens muttered for a moment, "okay, but play according to my arrangement first, and after leading by 5 points, you can play Breakthrough." ”
Shangguan Yu nodded and said, "Understood." ”
After the pause, everyone clearly felt that Shangguan Yu's desire to attack increased, but he was equally active on the defensive end.
It's just that Anthony is unstoppable now, first hitting a mid-range jumper, causing Crowder's defensive foul and making it 2+1. Then he received an assist from O'Quinn from 13 feet out and hit another jumper. He scored 7 points in a row by himself to help the Knicks overtake the score again.
Shangguan Yu couldn't tolerate such a thing, he needed to overtake the score.
In this round, it was the turn of the Celtics to attack, and Shangguan Yu took the ball at the top of the arc again, signaling the others to pull away first.
The shooting feint did not fool Lance Thomas, but Shangguan Yu wanted this effect.
Bang, bang, bang
Shangguan Yu accelerated his dribbling and continued to change direction, but he did not shake off Lance Thomas.
But he suddenly leaned forward, pretending to be going inside, and Lance Thomas could only take a step back. Shangguan Yu seized the opportunity and took the ball back, this time it was not a shooting feint.
Lance Thomas hesitated, Shangguan Yu made a quick stop jump shot, although the power was a little great, but the ball smashed into the inside of the basket and fell into the net.
Shangguan Yu's 7th point in this game, it seems that today's shooting feels good, and Shangguan Yu is ready to shoot more.
In the next round, it was the Knicks' turn to attack, Calderon handed the ball to Anthony in the high post, and Crowder held it up in the back. Shangguan Yu seized the opportunity and suddenly wrapped up, but it didn't work. Anthony passed the ball to O'Quinn on the inside, and Taylor just went to make up for Lance Thomas, who cut in the air, and Shangguan Yu was too slow to save the ball.
O'Quinn makes a mid-range jumper from 10 feet out!
Now the Knicks' offense is booming, and the Celtics are a little overwhelmed, but Smart is also in good shape today, using the breakthrough to kill the interior and cause fouls.
In the last minute of the first quarter, the game was quite intense. The Knicks pressed the tempo down, and in the final 10 seconds, handed the ball to Anthony.
The latter continued to fall into the high singles, and Shangguan Yu did not dare to blindly wrap up the ball.
One-on-one single defense, Claude is really not Anthony's opponent, the two are not on the same level in terms of body and technique. Crowder was pushed from inside the three-point line to just 10 feet from the basket, and Anthony turned around and made a step-back jumper, leaving Crowder powerless and blindfolded.
Brush!
This ball is still there!
Anthony is hot and unstoppable now. In the case of falling behind in the score, it is necessary to play the success rate.
The Celtics made the last attack of the quarter, Smart pressed the time to the final 12 seconds and handed the ball to Shangguan Yu, who used the cover pocket. Dribbling the ball during the game can quickly improve his ability to control the ball, so Shangguan Yu controls the ball well and waits for opportunities.
Taylor Zeller suddenly raised the screen, O'Quinn was a little unable to keep up, and Shangguan Yu used the cover to shake off Lance Thomas, who was following the defense, and was ready to shoot near the free throw line.
Suddenly felt a murderous intention, and out of the corner of his eye, he aimed at Anthony who was on the side, but Shangguan Yu had already jumped up.
Just when everyone thought he was going to make a move, he passed the ball to Tyler Zeller, who took the ball and went to the basket.
O'Quinn fouled from behind, and Tyler Zeller hit both free throws to help Celtic stabilize the situation.
With the final 20 seconds left in the offensive clock, the Knicks still have one more offensive chance.
Calderon pushed the ball into the half court and handed it to Anthony and the others pulled away.
Anthony held the ball at 45 degrees on the left side to press the rhythm, and more than ten seconds of time were wasted in his hands.
He suddenly jumped high, one step away from the three-point line, and pulled out his hand directly.
Brush!
This one is back!
At 31-27, the Knicks already lead the Celtics by four points. (To be continued.) )
