James used practical actions to tell Shangguan Yu what is called the rampaging Zhan Huang.

He took the ball from Irving's hand and carried it like he was carrying a bag of explosives, and shot towards the Celtics' interior line. Looking at Claude's expression, you know how uncomfortable it is. But Shangguan Yu couldn't help much, and the frontal defense obviously couldn't work, but the bag still had to be done.

Shangguan Yu blocked it from the side for the first time, and under the joint defense of the two, James actually pulled it up and threw the ball to the basket in the gap.

The ball bounced a few times and rolled into the net.

James, who is double rampant, is really tough, Shangguan Yu shook his head helplessly, and now James has scored 20 points.

Shangguan Yu did not allow the gap between the two to widen, and he had to score points.

Shangguan Yu asked Thomas to lean over and whispered a few words in his ear before sending the ball out.

Thomas dribbled across the half court, glanced at Guan Yu, and the two ran quickly, and at the same time, Sallinger, who had just been replaced on the court, also ran out.

Double Cover Tactics On!

Thomas used the cover to break through, kill the inside line of the Cavaliers, and Shangguan Yu, who was after the blocking, ran towards the vacant position.

In the face of the menacing Thomas, Lefu made up for the first time, but Thomas was very flexible, and his beautiful feet shook him over, and when he made a layup, he caused a foul on Lefou's hitter.

Although this goal was not assisted by Shangguan Yu, his role cannot be ignored. Because he took James away when he ran to the empty seat, and Sallinger also deceived Owen.

That's why Thomas has a chance to turn the tide on the inside.

Thomas hit both free throws to score his 10th of the game, but six of his points came from free throws because he really didn't feel good.

But for the ball just now, Shangguan Yu actually wanted Thomas to pass the ball back, but unfortunately the Cavaliers' players didn't cover it.

The two sides went back and forth, but the points were not much, and the Celtics did not close the score.

Shangguan Yu shot a three-point shot again, and this time he finally hit, and Shangguan Yu scored the seventeenth point of the game.

The last attack of the first half, looking at James, once again attacked with a bag of explosives. Crowder was fouled twice, and Shangguan Yu could only let go of his defender and come over from the side to wrap up.

James actually made a behind-the-back pass to Kevin Love on the outside. The latter received the ball and shot, but fortunately the three points were missed.

Although Kevin Love went to the Cavaliers last season to form a new Big Three, he has always been criticized. Because of his performance, he is not worthy of being called a giant. Both in terms of personal data and the role of the team, there has been a clear decline.

At the same time, he is plagued by injuries, and the three-point stunt that he has always relied on to survive has now been affected a lot.

At halftime, the Cavaliers were 54-47 and temporarily led by seven points.

James also scored 20 points, leading the pack, and Shangguan Yu was still two points behind.

But this is James who is in average condition, because his shooting hand today is really poor, and Shangguan Yu is already in excellent condition, shooting 6 of 9 in the first half, 4 of 6 three-pointers, and the shooting rate is a bit terrible.

The physical exertion in the second half must be very large, and he must not be able to maintain such a shooting rate, and it is obviously a little difficult to surpass James, Shangguan Yu is very sad.

And Coach Stevens is also nerve-wracking, because the Celtics can't guard James, which is the role of a superstar. Now he hopes that there will be such a supergiant in the formation. In this way, perhaps very close to the championship, he glanced at Shangguan Yu and thought to himself, can this Chinese boy become a supergiant?

But Shangguan Yu is still too young, even if he can become a supergiant in the future, it is too late now.

Having been in this circle for so long, he knew that Thomas could be a star, but not a supergiant.

A superstar in the NBA, as long as he is on the court, one person can change the situation. Thomas can do it by chance, so he can only be called a star. If he has a supergiant next to him, then this Celtics, even if they reach the finals, it is not impossible.

Although he has infinite fantasies, Stevens still has to face up to one problem, that is, how to keep James?

Claude can't, Amir Johnson is too slow, Sallinger must stay inside, or let Shangguan Yu defend it?

Stevens is a person who dares to think and do, but he can't do this one.

He suddenly remembered that at the end of the first half, Crowder defended James, and Shangguan Yu came to help defend, and the effect seemed to be good.

"Jay, you'll continue to defend James, but don't foul. If he can't keep it, let him get points. But you have to get in the right position, because Yu will help with the defense. Yu, you stay inside, you find an opportunity to pinch James, you can let your defenders go, and the others will make up for it, get it!"

"Understood!"

Stevens was rare and heroic: "It's just the first place in the East, we have to pull them down from the throne and kick them in the ass, come on!"

Coach Stevens' words made Shangguan Yu very happy, as long as he guarded against James. Others can do whatever they like, complete the task first, and then say, if he can win a victory, Shangguan Yu is still very happy.

At halftime, Shangguan Yu did not appear for the first time, and Coach Stevens asked Crowder and Amir Johnson to fight James hand-to-hand and consume part of his physical energy.

The two desperately went to wrestle with James, and both fouled a few times, and James used free throws to keep improving his score.

But the only good news for the Celtics is that James has been slow to find form. The rest of the Cavaliers are also out of form, and the only ones who can score now are Irving and JR Smith.

Just over halfway through the third quarter, Shangguan Yu came on in place of Amir Johnson because he had already committed four fouls. James has already made 11 free throws, but looking at his expression, he is clearly aggrieved.

Now Tristan Thompson is not off the court, and Shangguan Yu is on the defensive end, continuing to defend him.

After Shangguan Yu appeared on the court, the Celtics launched the first attack, because Shangguan Yu's performance was just average. And I want Thomas to work with Turner and Bradley, and gradually get back into shape.

James will also not focus on guarding Shangguan Yu, so he will give Shangguan Yu a chance.

Received a pass from Thomas on the run and hit a mid-range step-back jumper from the free throw line. This ball is slightly drifting and looks very elegant.

The Cavaliers served the baseline ball, and Irving handed the ball to James after halftime. This time he continued to play Claude with his back, and Aamir Johnson just now had the first chance to wrap up, but Shangguan Yu would not do this, because he was very confident in his movement speed, and he helped defend more often, paying attention to the grasp of timing.

Crowder defends well, but when it comes to James, he's still at the bottom.

However, when James turned around and wanted to break through, Shangguan Yu made up for it as soon as possible, forcing James to jump up and pass the ball.

Tristan got the ball under the basket, Sallinger had already made up for it, and he had to give the ball to Lefu on the other side.

Crowder had already pounced, and although Love shot from mid-range, the shot was wide under Crowder's interference.

Sallinger defended the rebound, the Celtics launched a quick counterattack, and Bradley missed a run.

Tristan Thompson grabbed the rebound, and James burst into the half-court and went straight inside. This time, Shangguan Yu grasped the opportunity very well and cut off the ball in his hand.

However, this slap uses a lot of force, and if the strength is a little less, it is estimated that there will be no way to cut the ball.

James' physical fitness is really strong!

After Shangguan Yu controlled the ball, he quickly threw the ball out, and Thomas advanced with the ball. The Celtics played a beautiful match in the high post, and Sallinger cut the ball to the basket, but was covered by James. The ball that popped out was grabbed by Shangguan Yu.

A left turn, a quick change of direction, Shangguan Yu got the opportunity to shoot from the middle distance, and he was not relentless.

Golden Rooster Independence!

Syllable!

The ball was iron, Love won the backcourt rebound, this time the ball was fast, and James ran in a good position.

One-on-one in the frontcourt, James picked up Crowder, and the two stumbled towards the basket. When James jumped up for the layup, he was pulled down by Crowder.

Boom!

James fell heavily to the ground, although Crowder's ball was a bit excessive, but James was no better, just slapped an elbow at Crowder, and it was not that he didn't see it.

But Tristan Thompson was upset and rushed over and pushed Claude away: "What do you want to do?!"

Shangguan Yu followed, stood between the two, and shouted at Tristan Thompson, "Why do you want to fight?!"

Perhaps he had never seen such a fierce Chinese, Tristan Thompson was stunned for a moment, but the referee did not faint. He was given a technical foul directly, and Crowder was also given a technical foul.

James, who got up from the ground, was still chattering, and Shangguan Yu's only remaining good impression of him was eliminated.

When James made a free throw, Shangguan Yu glanced at him, if anyone paid attention, this glance had too much deep meaning.

James hit both free throws and has scored 26 points, and he can easily break through 30+ today.

Shangguan Yu has only scored 20 points so far, and there is still a big gap between the two.

Because Crowder had already committed four fouls, he was substituted, and Coach Stevens took the opportunity to make a substitution adjustment.

When he got off the field, Claude cast a grateful look at Shangguan Yu, and there was a trace of guilt in it.

In fact, he has always been a little targeted at Shangguan Yu, because he felt that Shangguan Yu's arrival would divide him a lot of time. And he has always felt that Shangguan Yu is not as good as him. But he now found that Shangguan Yu played almost ten minutes less than him, and the points he got were not less than his own.

Seeing Shangguan Yu rushing over to stand up for himself regardless of his previous suspicions, Claude was only grateful, and there was only gratitude left.
