Chapter 19 Unprecedented Treatment

Shangguan Yu finally regained the feeling he had lost for a long time, and the basketball style he once pursued seemed to be getting closer and closer to him. led the team all the way to the lead, and Shangguan Yu handled the ball more easily.

The Nets failed to attack, and the ball fell into Brewer's hands, but he didn't get the ball out at the first time, so he had to fall into a positional battle. However, the Nets' defense changed, from one-on-one marking to two-three defense.

The breakthrough ability is not outstanding, and the offense with the ball is not strong, Beverley obviously does not have much to do. After the ball was transmitted on the outside for more than ten seconds, he could only hand the ball to Shangguan Yu again. In the face of Thomas Robinson and Ellington's joint defense, Shangguan Yu faked and shook it, but neither of them was fooled.

Shangguan Yu seemed to deliberately put the ball in front of him, and Ellington couldn't help but shoot, but the ball was quickly withdrawn. Seeing Ellington out of position, Thomas Robinson could only step forward to wrap up, but Shangguan Yu handed the ball to Jones on the inside at the moment when the trap was formed, and he dribbled to attract the defense and handed it to Capela on the other side.

The non-stop transmission of the ball, when the ball reached Brewer's hands, it was completely empty. He pulled up a three-point shot, and although he didn't shoot, the opportunity was already out.

And the biggest credit for the emergence of this opportunity should belong to Shangguan Yu, without him letting the two lose their positions, there would be no vacant seats. It's just a pity that Brewer didn't get his chance.

However, there will be such opportunities again, but before the opportunity comes again, Shangguan Yu presented a wonderful goal.

The Nets' Larkin hit a three-pointer to stop a temporary rout. The Rockets' offense stalled, Beverley was too hesitant to play the ball, and there was not much time left in the end, and he couldn't organize an effective offense, and when Shangguan Yu handed the ball into Jones's hands, there was only 4 seconds, and he could only force a shot, and the shot didn't hit.

Thomas Robinson grabbed the rebound and handed it to Larkin to fight back, but the Rockets dropped back quickly. And Beverley pressed closely, so that Larkin couldn't handle the ball well, and just when he wanted to pass the ball out, Shangguan Yu had already wrapped it up. Beverley's quick eyes cut off the ball he was about to receive in his arms.

Shangguan Yu took the lead in controlling the ball and quickly pushed it across the half court, and Larkin behind him was still a big step away from himself, and Shangguan Yu took a step directly from the free throw line, which was a direct jump, and a powerful one-handed tomahawk split buckle, which shocked the four seats.

The Rockets players on the bench stood up and waved the towel in their hands vigorously.

But such a morale-boosting goal did not help the Rockets to continue to expand the score. In the next few offenses, they were not handled well, and the Nets seized the opportunity to play a wave of small climaxes to narrow the score to within 10 points.

McHale was clearly not satisfied with the performance of the players on the court, so he replaced Thornton for Shangguan Yu, Terry replaced Beverley, and Howard also returned to the court. However, the decline of the Rockets cannot be changed because of this, especially after the main force came on the court, they were still beaten by the opposite side, so at the end of the second quarter, the Rockets were 53-58, temporarily trailing by 5 points.

However, for Shangguan Yu, he played more than eight minutes in the first half, scored 12 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block, and his performance can be said to be quite efficient.

But with the scorching score, McHale did not let Shangguan Yu appear on the stage and pressed him to the bench. However, the other substitutes of the Rockets performed too badly, so with more than 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter, McHale took advantage of the dead ball opportunity to replace Shangguan Yu on the court again.

Shangguan Yu, who appeared on the court, showed with his actions that he was worthy of the coach's trust, first grabbed the rebound on the defensive end, and used the cover to run out of the open position to receive Lawson's pass, and threw a key three-pointer to chase the score to 82-85.

The Nets' Larkin didn't feel bad today, using the cover to dribble and then make a pull-up jumper and hit a mid-range two-point shot.

When it was the Rockets' turn to attack, Shangguan Yu helped Lawson block and block Larkin behind him. The moment he opened it, he walked towards the basket, Lawson hit the ground and passed the ball, and distributed the ball to Shangguan Yu. Shangguan Yu, who hit the basket, was caught by the two, but he was calm and found an opportunity to throw the ball to Lawson on the outside, and this time he did not disappoint Shangguan Yu.

Brush!

The three-pointer hit a solid shot and once again closed the score. But the Nets didn't back down, and with a clever combination, Bogdanovic scored two points with a hook shot.

This time, it was still Shangguan Yu who stood up, facing Ellington's defense, and using his height and weight to force it forward. The basket showed fantastic footwork, two consecutive shakings, dodging the blocks of Ellington and Thomas Robinson, and hitting the board in the small box to hit a two-point shot.

The Nets attacked, Larkin and Ellington broke through in succession, but the last chance was not great, because the ball fell into the hands of Thomas Robinson, and his offensive means were the most sure dunk under the basket. But his position, a meter away from the basket, so his hook brushed out of the frame.

After Lawson grabbed the rebound, he quickly pushed across the half court, hit near the free throw line, and saw that Shangguan Yu had no one to defend, so he passed the ball to Shangguan Yu. When he made a shooting move, Ellington jumped over and blocked it, but Shangguan Yu dodged it with one step. After adjustment, the accustomed posture, stretched shot, the ball drew a beautiful arc.

Brush!

The ball hollowed into the net, and the Rockets managed to overtake the score, and the Nets head coach could only ask for a timeout. The excited Brewer rushed over to celebrate with Guan Yu's chest, and other players also came over to high-five Guan Yu. Obviously, Shangguan Yu's strong performance has won their recognition.

McHale also said excitedly: "Yu (fish), well done!" ”

It wasn't a standard pronunciation, and Shangguan Yu didn't know if he was talking about fish or Yu, but he understood that he was definitely talking about himself, so he was as happy as a child.

After a 100-second timeout, players from both sides came back on the court, but the Rockets made personnel changes and replaced Beverley, apparently to strengthen the defense in the backcourt. But the Nets' defense has also made corresponding changes.

After his team's attack failed, Ellington quickly found Shangguan Yu and clinged to him, obviously not letting him get the basketball comfortably. This is a treatment that Shangguan Yu has never had, as a role player, many times he is the one who is missed on the defensive end.

However, the head coach of the Nets attaches great importance to Shangguan Yu's defense, obviously giving him enough respect, and Shangguan Yu did not disappoint him.
