Chapter 335 The debut of No. 3 and No. 5
"Inside."

"But you already have Shaq and the little guy you just drafted this year."

"I want you to teach Kevin a bit. I think his style suits your taste."

"Is that right?"

"Erwin, my master, don't you want to win one more championship?"

Davis's last words directly caused Johnson to fall into deep thought.

"You have to know that Larry just got his first championship ring as a coach this year."

"Okay, okay, you bad boy, let me think about it."

DeWeese knew it was almost done. ,
In his previous life, Johnson chose to make a short comeback in the 95-96 season. He played 32 games with the Lakers and averaged 14.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game. This is what he did when he switched to power forward and was already 36 years old.

Two days later, news came out of the league that the Orlando Magic had signed "Magic" Irvin Johnson.

Everyone is at a loss, not to mention how Johnson's body is now, such a 36-year-old guy, what's the use of signing him?

Later, news broke that Davis had consulted with Johnson about his skills when he first entered the league.

Let's contact again that all the rookies selected by the Magic this year are more or less related to Davis.

Immediately afterwards, some people criticized Davis, saying that after winning the championship, he swelled up, relied on cronyism, excluded dissidents, felt that the league was no longer challenging, and thought he could monopolize the championship ring.

These news brought Davis a good mood for several days.

In a blink of an eye, the preseason of the 95-96 season will begin.

The Magic sent Garnett, Finley, Klay, Iverson and Van Exel to play in the preseason.

With this lineup, D'Antoni is like a fish in water.

They only lost two of their seven preseason games, averaging 7 points per game, but also lost 117 points.

It can be said that this lineup is a set of seven wounds, injuring yourself before injuring the enemy.

However, such a magic team made everyone afraid.

Because, O'Neal didn't play the entire preseason, and didn't even appear on the sidelines.

And DeWeese, he just received a review.

"Michael, I have never seen a player with a ruptured Achilles tendon recover so quickly like you. In just four hours, he is basically no different from a normal person." The attending doctor looked at the examination report in his hand in surprise.

"Then, can I do recovery training now?" Davis asked the attending doctor with a smile.

"I don't have any reason to say no, but you still have to pay attention to the amount of training. I heard that you were a training madman before." The attending doctor raised his eyes and said to Davis.

"That's great Michael." Anna hugged Davis happily beside her.

Davis was a little calm.

He intuitively believed that this incident must be related to his long-disappeared system.

Just as Davis was carrying out his recovery training in an orderly manner under the guidance of Javi, the new season of the NBA officially started.

The Bulls, who added Gugliota during the offseason and paid only an insignificant draft pick, are still regarded as the biggest favorites to win the championship.

Next are the Rockets, Knicks, Jazz and Magic.

The defending champion is not very optimistic because of the lack of Davis and the big change in the lineup.

But people are still looking forward to how far O'Neal can lead the Magic with two potential rookies.

On November 1995, 11, the regular season officially began.

The Magic's first game is at home against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The once glorious Cavaliers had completely degenerated, and they didn't even have a well-known star that Davis knew in their lineup.

The Magic sent a starting lineup of O'Neal, Garnett, Horry, Klay and Iverson.

This is also the strongest starting set that Davis and the coaching staff discussed during training.

Seeing O'Neal's jump ball opponent, John Ameche, Davis suddenly had an impression of this guy.

This is an Englishman, to be precise, he is an English poet. . . .

Because he was Yao Ming's teammate in his previous life, Davis suddenly remembered.

Not only is he a poet, he is also the first player in the NBA to publicly announce his coming out. . . .

In addition, he was an undrafted pick and was waived by the Cavaliers after only playing dozens of games.

It will be 5 years before he next appears on the NBA court.

Amici did not cause any interference to O'Neal, and O'Neal easily won the ball for the team.

Iverson received the pass and quickly inserted into the frontcourt.

The first official opponent he faced was the No. 91 pick in 11, Trier Brandon, a small guard who was only 180 tall.

Iverson, began his performance in the NBA.

Wearing flowers and butterfly steps, officially coming out of the mountain.

Although Davis is also a master of CrossOver, he is nearly 20 cm taller than Iverson. Even if he uses fingertip dribble, his center of gravity is much higher than Iverson, and his aesthetics is not as good as Iverson.

There was no foreplay at all, and the AI ​​with full firepower used his most signature moves to break through Brandon head-on and easily layup.

"Although I have seen this little man's performance in the NCAA and preseason games, I still have to say, he is really fast!" The commentator exclaimed off the court.

The surprises that the Magic have brought to others are far more than just AI.

Brandon advanced to the frontcourt, AI tried to steal, but his gambling steal failed, Brandon was overjoyed, and followed AI's action just now to go inside.

Amici blocked O'Neill with all his strength.

But a Magic player wearing No. [-].Jumped high on the side of Brandon and directly fanned Brandon's layup out of the court.

Garnett hammered his chest like a gorilla, acting very iron-blooded.

The Magic's criticized defense suddenly rose to a new level after entering the regular season, and others almost couldn't understand it. . .

Garnett's defensive area is terrifying, and almost the entire three-point line is his defense area.

His flexibility is not like a power forward at all, but like a guard, but his defense in the interior is extremely tough.

And the surprises that Garnett brought to people are not limited to these.

Garnett leaned on the defender behind him, intending to play back, but he suddenly threw the ball out of the back of his head.

Clay, who slipped to the baseline, received Garnett's pass very comfortably and made a layup.

"No. [-] of the Magic, this year's No. [-] rookie, Kevin Garnett's passing vision is shocking. He doesn't look like an inside player at all, but his offense and defense are very good inside. God, is this really a high school player?"

In the first two quarters of the game, AI and Garnett stayed on the court, and the entire court became a stage for them to perform, even suppressing O'Neal's limelight.

　There are still two updates, but the 5th update will resume on Sunday. The outline of the new book has made my scalp numb these days. . .
