In the basketball world, starting from the 99 World Youth Championship

Chapter 118 Difficult victory, runaway AI
As the first brother in Philadelphia, Iverson made 26 shots in three quarters and scored 26 points on 11 of 27 shots. This score is very good for Iverson.

In the fourth quarter, Iverson didn't continue to play. Larry Brown didn't have the head iron to let the core still smash, but chose to play Matt Geiger, Larry Hughes, Aaron McGee, Todd McCloch, Bruce Bowen's lineup.

Zhang Tian was a little surprised when he saw Bowen. When Wilkins played, Zhang Tian told him, "Be careful with the number 12."

Although Larry Brown did not have his apprentice Bobo, the old dog could do whatever it takes to win, and his disciple Mike Budenholzer later carried forward this trick even more-from stepping on one person to stepping on everyone, but as Larry Brown An old fritter that has been immersed in the basketball world for many years is not a good product.

There is nothing wrong with telling the essence of the human movie. The opponent is currently the most stable scoring point in the Pacers' bench. His presence can give the main players more rest.

In addition to the essence of human movies on the Pacers side, the point guard did not use Travis Best, but Theodoros Papalukas. The Greek point guard has adapted to the rhythm of the NBA. In this regard, he is much better than Travis Best. If you want to find a template, he is now equivalent to Billups in the first year of his rookie, or Mike Bibby. Physically, he is not as good as those two. , but the gap between transmission and control and the overall situation is not very big.

The inside line is Big Ben and Kevin Cato. Except for playing the Lakers, the bus has no chance in other games unless it is garbage time, but fortunately, the Pacers have extended his contract until the end of the season. There is no risk of unemployment.

The core of Philadelphia's bench is Larry Hughes. This guy just bury his head in when he gets the ball. Theodoros Papa Lucas naturally can't stop him, but Big Ben rushed over from the inside and faced this explosive head. , Larry Hughes decisively chose the mid-range shot, Duang hit the iron on the first shot of the game, the rebound was grabbed by Cato under the basket, and veteran Matt Geiger was no match for him at all.

But Cato was too slow to play the ball, so that the Pacers did not play a fast break. Theodoros Papalukas could only pass the ball to the human movie essence. Bruce Bowen looked at the fifty legacy in front of him. Zhu, I am more nervous. The current Philadelphia No. 12 is not the stepping master behind.

After receiving the ball, Human Movie Essence skipped and turned around. Bowen made up for it immediately, but his physical condition was not top-notch in the third position, so he did not block Wilkins, who successfully broke through , arrived at the basket, passed Matt Geiger, and made a backhand. In these small skills in the penalty area, Wilkins has no less mastery than the four major centers.

In Philadelphia, Larry Hughes continued to play singles without passing the ball. He passed the Greek point guard again. This time he did not shoot, but continued to rush to the basket. Toss, throw the ball out, swipe, and score the ball.

Larry Hughes finally opened, but Wilkins was equally unstoppable. Bruce Bowen was passed again, and Wilkins scored a mid-range shot.

Scoring four points in a row, this offensive efficiency is much better than at its peak, Larry Brown chose to call a timeout on the sidelines.

After the timeout, the Philadelphia starters came up. Larry Hughes, who scored 2 points, was replaced. The Philadelphia rookie was very disappointed.

Iverson faced Theodoros Papa Lucas, and the butterfly pierced the right side and scored in the mid-range shot.

On the Pacers' side, Wilkins' offense was cut off, and Iverson scored another two points using the fast break, and the point difference was gradually narrowed.

Larry Bird could only suspend and choose to replace all the starters. Reggie Miller felt good after coming up, and he scored a three-pointer against Iverson.

But Iverson also returned the answerball against him. The fans in the First Union Center had already stood up. Iverson scored seven consecutive points on the field, and really started to go berserk.

Reggie Miller didn't ask for the ball for the next attack. It wasn't that he was cowardly, but that Philadelphia posted that he was very dead. Iverson, who doesn't like defense very much, tried his best in this defense. The answer is too much. Want to win, want to win this game so much.

Mark Jackson chose to pass the ball to Zhang Tian. Facing George Lynch, Zhang Tian did not jump and turn, but turned around with a cross step. A mid-range shot turned his score into 24 points.George Lynch's face was full of annoyance, he forgot that Zhang Tian knew Kobe's trick.

Damn it, why is this rookie so hard to defend? Iverson continued to fight Miller one-on-one. He didn't believe in his outside touch, but continued to break through on the right side. Zhang Tian made up for it, but Iverson However, Sen chose to turn around and forcibly dribble, Jermaine also defended from the inside, and Iverson was caught in the middle, but the core of Philadelphia still relied on its good sense of the ball to forcefully send the ball into the basket .

With 9 points in a row, Iverson led Philadelphia forward on his own. Reggie Miller called Jermaine O's cover for this attack. He ran out of position and hit a three-pointer, allowing the Pacers to continue scoring.

Iverson is still continuing to play hard, but his physical strength has reached a critical point for him. Larry Bird took good care of him in this game. The goal was not scored, and Dick Bavita did not blow the whistle. , Iverson's offense was broken, and the Pacers began to counterattack.

Zhang Tian scored two points in a fast break. Larry Brown did not call a timeout, but replaced Aaron McGee with George Lynch. He needed to take care of Zhang Tian more. The two Larrys were on the sidelines. Fighting wits and courage, the ten people on the field went all out to win.

Iverson was still in singles, Duang, ruthlessly told him to pass the ball, the rebound was caught by Zhang Tian, ​​Aaron McGee fouled, and Zhang Tian did not succeed in the fast break.

However, Mark Jackson in the positional battle still found the Pacers No. [-], Aaron McGee was close to the defense, Zhang Tian switched the ball to his left hand, and before his foot stepped out, the Philadelphians chose to retreat. Take off and throw the ball.

The attention of the audience is on this ball. If they enter the game, it will almost be a conclusion. If they do not enter Philadelphia, there is still a chance.

Duang, the ball hit the basket for the first time, but it didn't fall off, but flew into the net slowly.

The entire First Union Center was silent, and this goal meant that Iverson's efforts just now were in vain.

The Pacers won the away game at 103:97. Zhang Tian scored 31 points, 5 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 assist in the game. Although not as impressive as Iverson's 37 points and 4 assists, they If you win, the winner is king in competitive sports.
