super point guard

Chapter 98 The Most Depressed Shannon Brown
"Coach, please let me play!" Shannon Brown begged Phoenix Suns head coach Alvin Gentry during a timeout.

"You want to play?" Coach Erwin Gentry looked at Shannon Brown and said with some disbelief.

"Yes, please let me play, I'm going to guard their point guard called Promise!" Shannon Brown said, "Please believe me, coach, I will do a good job!"

But Coach Alvin Gentry shook his head.

"It's not time for you to play," coach Alvin Gentry said.

"But coach, please believe me!" Shannon Brown said loudly.

Coach Elvin Gentry looked at Shannon Brown and said very quickly: "I know you have long wingspan and good jumping. These are really helpful for defense, but you played in the first quarter You didn’t succeed in restraining that rookie kid named Xu Nuo, and didn’t you get slapped by him? Now that we are so far behind the opponent, you should not play at this time.”

When Shannon Brown heard this, he lowered his head dejectedly, with a dejected look on his face.Coach Alvin Gentry ignored Shannon Brown and started laying out plays.

That's when DeMar DeRozan, standing next to the Indiana Pacers' bench, saw the look on Shannon Brown's face and happily told the promise of returning to the bench.

"I guess Shannon Brown wanted to play but Coach Elvin Gentry didn't agree to his request." DeMar DeRozan said happily to the promise.

"How do you know?" Xu Nuo asked DeMar DeRozan suspiciously while looking at Ellen Page sitting in the first row across the court.

"I guess Shannon Brown would really like to play against you because you slapped him in the first quarter and he hasn't had a chance to retaliate yet," DeMar DeRozan said.

"Revenge?" Xu Nuo snorted coldly and said, "Only by him? Next life."

At this time, their head coach Larry Brown picked up the tactical board and promised to stop talking with DeMar DeRozan immediately. And whoever dares to violate Coach Larry Brown's ban is purely making trouble for himself.

"Irvington (Mayo) and Xu Nuo played well in the period just now, you two stay on the court!" Coach Larry Brown looked at Xu Nuo and OJ Mayo and said, Xu Nuo nodded, and OJ Mayo said "Got it, coach".

Immediately afterwards, Coach Larry Brown looked at Danny Granger and Roy Hibbert, who had been sitting off the court before, "Danny, Roy, you replace Paul (George) and Jeff (Fox) Special) play!" Coach Larry Brown said, "The first half of the game is coming to an end, we will use the last few minutes of the first half to go all out, expand our lead, and completely defeat our opponents!"

This is only the second quarter of the game. Coach Larry Brown began to ask the players to completely defeat the opponent. Such a promise surprised Coach Larry Brown's tactical intentions, but he couldn't say anything about this promise.

On the other end of the court, Phoenix Suns head coach Alvin Gentry ultimately failed to field Shannon Brown, and the team's starting point guard, Steve Nash, replaced backup guard Ronnie Pry. Si appeared again.Shannon Brown, on the other hand, slumped down into a chair in great gloom, with a look of frustration and reluctance.

"It's okay not to play now," Robin Lopez said to Shannon Brown. "Maybe Coach Gentry will put you on the court at a critical moment in the game!"

Shannon Brown shook his head, "I guess the coach won't let me play again!" Shannon Brown said.

"Don't worry, there is still the second half of the game." Robin Lopez comforted Shannon Brown.

Shannon Brown didn't speak anymore, but stared fiercely at the Indiana Pacers point guard who was bending over the court and promised.

At this time, Xu Nuo already knows how to defend Steve Nash. Compared with Steve Nash, he is not as good as his opponent in terms of game experience. Physically, the two are evenly matched, and Xu Nuo's advantage lies in his own speed. and defense.With Ellen Page cheering on the sidelines, Promise successfully intercepted Steve Nash's pass on the defensive end twice in a row, and then assisted Danny Granger on an outside three-pointer in the fast break. Divide the ball and help the team expand the difference between the two teams to 14 points!And whenever he promised to have a wonderful performance on the court, Shannon Brown, who was sitting on the bench of the Phoenix Suns, would hate it in his heart.

"Michael (Pietrus), you go guard that point guard!" Phoenix Suns coach Elvin Gentry shouted at Michael Pietrus on the court, pointing at Xu Nuo.

Michael Pietrus' defense is much better than Steve Nash's. In the NBA Finals between the Orlando Magic and the Los Angeles Lakers, Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy used Michael Pietrus to defend Kobe Bryant's.But Xu Nuo knew very well in his heart that if the Phoenix Suns wanted to use Michael Pietrus to defend themselves, then Steve Nash could only defend OJ Mayo.

So Xu promised to approach OJ Mayo and whispered to him: "I will pass you more passes in the next game."

O． J．Mayo nodded knowingly, "I understand." OJ Mayo said.

Offensively, Steve Nash set up Marcin "Polish Hammer" Gortat for a layup at the rim with a touchdown pass following a drive.When Xu Nuo got the ball and started to attack, the opponent in front of him was replaced by Michael Pietrus from Steve Nash.

Compared with Steve Nash, Michael Pietrus is tall and strong, promising to really dare not attack rashly when facing Michael Pietrus.At this time, OJ Mayo used Taylor Hansbrough's cover to get rid of Steve Nash's defense and ran to the outside of the three-point line to receive the ball, promising to pass the ball in his hand immediately. OJ Mayo received the ball and was about to shoot. Michael Pietrus rushed to defend, but OJ Mayo passed the ball back to Xu Nuo while Pietrus was defending.Xu promised to see Danny Granger who was making an empty cut to the basket from the baseline when he received the ball, so he immediately hit the ground and passed the ball to Danny Granger through the Phoenix Suns defense In the hands of Danny Granger catching the ball was an easy layup.

"Whoa!" shrieked Ellen Page, sitting courtside. "What a pass!"

Xu Nuo smiled slightly at Ellen Page. Although Ellen Page's scream could only be received by bats, Xu Nuo didn't feel very disgusted.

And watching his team's defense become so bad, Phoenix Suns head coach Alvin Gentry looked helpless, at this time Shannon Brown once again came to the side of coach Alvin Gentry .

"Coach, please let me play!" Shannon Brown said firmly to Coach Alvin Gentry.

Coach Elvin Gentry looked at Shannon Brown, "Coach, this time I will definitely complete the defensive task very well!" Shannon Brown said.

Coach Alvin Gentry thought for about three seconds, then nodded.

"Okay, you go on the court to defend that rookie kid named Xu Nuo!" Coach Elvin Gentry said.

So, Shannon Brown replaced Michael Pietrus and made his debut again.

"It's Shannon Brown again," Xu Nuo couldn't help laughing when the Phoenix Suns replaced Michael Pietrus with Shannon Brown. "It's not as good as Pietrus."

"This way you don't have to pass the ball to me all the time." OJ Mayo said to Xu Xu.

"Yeah, I'm going to humiliate him well later." Xu Nuo said happily.

However, Shannon Brown actually hit an outside three-pointer during the offense, so Xu Xu felt very surprised.After making a long three-pointer, Shannon Brown stood in front of Xu Nuo full of confidence.

"I won't let you score even one point in the next game!" Shannon Brown said to promise.

"You're not the first to say that." Xu Nuo said coldly to Shannon Brown while dribbling the ball, "Also, I heard that you seem to be one of the players with the highest vertical jump in the league .”

"Of course!" Shannon Brown said, without hearing the sarcasm in Xu Nuo's words, because in the first quarter, Xu Nuo slapped Shannon Brown, who has the highest vertical jump, hard.

"Well then, let me see how high you can jump!" Xu Nuo said coldly.

Before Shannon Brown understood what Xu Nuo meant, Xu Nuo had already started a breakthrough, but Xu Nuo only took a small step to break through within the three-point line, then stopped abruptly and raised his hand to prepare for a shot.

Shannon Brown jumped up to block Promise's shot, and Promise could only see Shannon Brown's jersey number.But Xu Nuo suddenly leaned on Shannon Brown, and then threw the ball in his hand towards the basket.

Although Xu Nuo is only a rookie player, but because Xu Nuo has become quite popular in the league recently, and this game is the home court of the Indiana Pacers, the referee on duty still blew his whistle.Although Shannon Brown protested in every possible way, the referee on duty still insisted on his penalty, calling Shannon Brown for a defensive foul.Shannon Brown spread his hands and shook his head helplessly.

As Promise walked to the free throw line, Phoenix Suns head coach Alvin Gentry replaced Shannon Brown again with Josh Childress.Shannon Brown returned to the bench, covering his head with a towel in frustration.

Shannon Brown had one of the most depressing second quarters.
