NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Chapter 25 The Vicious Sugar-Coated Cannonball

The 76ers' pure bench lineup lasted less than 1 minute.

Kumbu has already made it clear that he is going to kill them all. If he puts on a pure substitute lineup, it will only further expand the point difference.

However, changing to the starting lineup will not change anything.

Kongbu was full of pride. He felt that the reason why he won so easily tonight was the key to his defensive tactics against Iverson.

Just imagine, if you follow Iverson's normal style of play, you keep holding the ball and rushing to the basket.

Tonight is the home game of the 76ers, and there will definitely be a home whistle. In case Big Ben or Camby gets fouled four or five times early, the Raptors' inside defense will drop immediately.

Although relying on the advantages of the lineup, the Raptors still have a great chance of winning in the end.

But there is definitely no way to crush it as happily as it is now.

Iverson scored not too many points tonight. He scored 19 points by the end of halftime. It is not a problem to score 30 points in the game.

And the hit rate is not low, with a hit rate of about 45%, which is almost Iverson's normal level.

Under normal circumstances, Iverson's scoring average this season is only 22 points per game. Tonight's [-]% will exceed the scoring average per game, so there is nothing wrong with his performance.

But how shrewd Iverson is, the more he played, the more he realized that something was wrong.

For any outside player, shooting in the middle like this all the time is a comfortable enjoyment that is hard to refuse.

But Iverson realized that this was probably a trap dug by Kumbu, and deliberately let him shoot in order to protect his own inside line.

He is comfortable shooting, and the Raptors are playing more comfortably inside.

For a moment, Iverson looked at Kongbu in horror. It was hard for him to believe that Kongbu, who was full of immature face, could come up with such a vicious sugar-coated bullet.

He didn't take Kongbu seriously at first, but now the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Kongbu was terrible.

After seeing through Kumbu's plan, Iverson began to change his style of play. Even if he had a comfortable mid-range shot, he would never make a shot, and began to rush towards the penalty area with the ball.

Kumbu noticed this and smiled nonchalantly.

The game has already progressed to more than half of the third quarter, and only the last quarter and a half is left. At this time, the Raptors still have a lot of fouls available.

Even if Iverson changes his style of play, he will be powerless.

At the end of the third quarter, the Raptors had a 93-point lead over the Philadelphia 44ers with a score of 76:49.

The defense is extremely poor, and the offensive end cannot be opened. Facing a super new force with excellent offense and defense like the Raptors, the Philadelphia 76ers are simply unable to resist.

ESPN broadcast tonight's game, chief commentator Mike Breen, his face full of disbelief.

"God, if this game is the Bulls against the 76ers, I can still accept such a point difference."

"But the opponent of the 76ers is the Raptors. Last season, they were still the bottom team in the Eastern Conference."

"It's really shocking. I have a hunch that tonight will definitely be recorded in NBA history."

Breen has been the chief commentator of ESPN for more than ten years. He has never seen a team show such a huge difference in combat power in two seasons without large-scale signings. .

The special TV commentator sitting next to him was the red giant Bill Wharton.

"A few months ago, I heard that the Raptors had a 28-year-old young man as their head coach. My feeling at the time was extremely absurd."

"Now it seems that the absurd seems to be myself."

"The Raptors, which no one was optimistic about, have become a powerful team in just a few months in the hands of Combe."

"In addition, if you think about it carefully, the current main players of the Raptors, except for Camby, are all brought by Combe."

"Bringing one can be called luck, and bringing two can also be called luck."

"How many did Kumbu bring? Every player has a very high cost performance."

Bill Walton, who is a member of the Hall of Famer and a top [-] superstar, directly gave Comb an extremely high evaluation.

While the two were chatting, the fourth quarter began.

"Guys, cheer up."

"Persist for one more quarter, and give me a sixty-point difference."

After the players came on the field, Kumbu stood on the sidelines and yelled at the players.

The voice was very loud, and it seemed that his words were not meant for the Raptors players at all, but more like for Larry Brown.

Larry Brown clenched his fists. He swore he had never met such a hateful kid in his life.

The point difference is close to 76 points. Except for Iverson, the [-]ers basically have no fighting spirit.

Now Stackhouse and Coleman, the biggest wish in their hearts is to score double figures in this game.

The game has been played for three quarters, and Coleman has taken 14 shots. He has only hit two so far. In addition, he made 2 of 1 free throws, and only 5 points were recorded in total.

Stackhouse is not much better, he shot up to 17 times, even more than Iverson.

17 shots, including 6 missed three-pointers, 11 of 4 mid-range shots, no free throws, and now only 8 points are accounted for.

Looking at the performance of this pair of crouching dragons and phoenix chicks, it is not difficult to imagine why the 76ers lost so badly.

If the offense is not good, but the defensive end can play a role, it is not unacceptable.

However, the defense of these two guys is no better than their offense at all.

Time passed by, and Larry Brown was pacing back and forth on the sidelines, restless.

The score difference has already passed fifty, and is heading for the sixty mark.

眼下NBA历史的单场分差记录是68分，由骑士和热火队于1991年打出，那场比赛骑士以148：80的比分狂胜了68分。

If this difference can be broken tonight, Larry Brown will definitely lose face.

Unfortunately, it is not so easy to break this record.

The Raptors have too few rotation players. By the fourth quarter, the players lacked physical fitness and their offensive efficiency had begun to decrease.

Fortunately, when the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the point difference was fixed at 61 points.

At 119:58, the total score of the Philadelphia 76ers was not even as high as the point difference.

Stackhouse finally scored in double figures, taking 22 shots and scoring a terrifying 11 points.

Coleman was miserable, until the end of the game, he only scored 7 points.

Iverson's data can't be faulted. He took 21 shots and scored 29 points.

However, Iverson was very dissatisfied with his performance. He knew very well that he was fooled by Konbu's devils in this game, and was confused by Konbu's sugar-coated shells.

If I could realize this earlier, even if I still lose in the end, I wouldn't lose so badly.

The Raptors played very well.

As the big brother of the team, Daben spared no effort to help O'Neill to improve his statistics tonight, and he also scored 3 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks.

Now that he has played five games this season, Daben averaged 14.5 rebounds and 3.6 blocks per game. He is second only to Rodman in rebounds and ranks first in blocks.

The blue-collar interior ceiling is well-deserved!

坎比全场入账了8分8篮板4助攻3盖帽1抢断，数据虽然不算起眼，但是他在场上的作用毋庸置疑。

Wu Sheng on the front line scored 26 points tonight, and Mashburn scored 24 points.

The two brothers scored 76 points together and beat the [-]ers on both offense and defense, stealing the limelight.

But to talk about the limelight, the protagonist of this game should be Olympiad. He played 32 minutes and scored 36 points, 10 rebounds, 2 blocks and 2 steals as a super power forward.

Six days ago, he was a drinking fountain keeper.

Six days later, he played a game that could rival Duncan, Garnett and others.
