God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 348 Deprecated?

During the intermission, apart from arranging tactics for the players in the second quarter, Brown also praised Snow's performance without hesitation.Indeed, replacing Snow on the court was a brilliant move. He overfulfilled his mission, not only sorted out the offense, but also caused some troubles for Kidd on the defensive end. Otherwise, the 76ers would not have won the two positions. leading in numbers.

But in Iverson's view, Brown's praise of Snow was a slap in the face. After all, Snow took his place on the court. If he said he played well, wouldn't he be saying that I played poorly?Of course, Brown definitely didn't mean it, but Iverson can't help it if he insists on adding drama to him without authorization. Some people can always interpret the deep meaning that does not exist from other people's words.

Brown didn't think about that much at all. He waved his hand and said beyond doubt: "In the second quarter, Eric, you continue to stay on the field and lead the bench lineup. I hope you can play your value and help the team continue to maintain such a lead." Advantage."

Snow nodded: "No problem, coach, I will let everyone get enough shots."

At this time, Iverson didn't say anything. He knew that although the team's substitute lineup was very strong, there was still a big gap with the main force. In the previous games, he rarely played with a substitute lineup. As for why the head coach Will continue to let Snow appear... Isn't it his duty to lead the bench to deal with opponents?This is nothing to be jealous of.

However, after the start of the second quarter, the 76ers' bench lineup did not perform at the level of the previous game, which made the fans moan.Chang Wei felt a little amused when he heard fans complaining endlessly not far behind him. The 76ers' bench was completely homeless. The last game was just an extraordinary performance, but now they are at their true level.

Fortunately, there is still Snow holding the ground. He assigns players to each scorer very calmly. Even Arenas has no objection. After all, Snow is the captain of the team and the leader of the locker room. His words in the team Quan is not weaker than Iverson, but he is not as popular as the latter. The importance of the two people is almost the same in a strict sense.

Scott, far less composed than Brown, moved into the starting lineup early in an attempt to seize the opportunity to tie the game before the 76ers moved into the starting lineup.Although they encountered tenacious resistance, they still managed to catch up the points little by little. After all, the 76ers' bench lineup had average rebounding ability, and the overall shooting rate could only be maintained at about 40%.

At 4 minutes and 25 seconds into the second quarter, the Nets finally chased the score to 45 to 50, but at this time Brown was already planning to switch to the starting lineup.It was completely within his expectation that the substitutes played like this. Although it was a little uncomfortable to be chased by only 5 points, it was difficult for them to do better.And at this time, the main players have rested enough time, it's time to go up and wrestle with their opponents. According to Brown's idea, it is best to re-open the difference between the two sides to double digits.

Iverson has already flexed his wrist in his position. He has convinced himself that being replaced in the first quarter was just an accident, and the head coach will continue to reuse him, just like the previous game.But to his surprise, Brown only replaced four players, and Snow was still on the field, that is to say, he was not included among the four players replaced!
This made Iverson very angry, his teeth were chattering, and his eyes seemed to be on fire.Seeing that something was wrong with him, Chang Wei quickly sat down to the side and comforted him: "Allen, this is the need of the team's tactical arrangement. You have to understand the coach's arrangement. He did this only because Snow is more suitable to match up with Kidd. You're still the best player on our team."

After hearing Chang Wei's explanation, Iverson snorted sullenly and did not speak.He knew what Chang Wei said was the truth, but he just couldn't swallow it.It’s okay to replace myself in the first quarter, and it’s okay if I don’t let myself play the first time in the second quarter, but now I have to change to the starting lineup and compete with the opponent, and I have to continue on the bench Do you sit?

But obviously Brown would not explain anything to him, he was more concerned about Snow's performance on the field.The previous games have proved that Snow is much more important than Iverson in the game. As a head coach, it is very normal not to let Iverson play. He must be responsible for the entire team. It is impossible to take care of someone. Personal feelings and ignore the outcome of the game.

After the main players re-appeared, they took the initiative back again, which made the Nets feel very aggrieved, especially Martin. He didn't get any good shots, but he had to fight his opponents hard at the basket, and he couldn't feel the refreshingness of crazily abusing the basket before.

Martin is a hot-tempered guy. Relatively speaking, although Hill is tough, he knows how to restrain his emotions, and he will use small moves to fuel the opponent's fire.Unfortunately, Martin became a victim. In an attack, he elbowed Hill very covertly. Although he was not noticed by the referee, the latter fell to the ground immediately without hesitation.Naturally, it is impossible not to watch the replay of the game when something like this happens on the court, and immediately gave Martin a technical foul without hesitation.

Fortunately, the other players of the Nets quickly stepped forward and stopped Martin, who was about to go to the referee to argue. This guy usually doesn't look like a good person, and now he looks aggressive. The consequences of a technical foul and a direct ejection.Although Martin failed to automatically apply to leave the field, Hill obviously reached his minimum goal. As long as Martin can't maintain a calm mind, then there is a great chance of making mistakes in the next game.

Scott seemed very helpless. He was not unaware of Martin's violent temper, but he didn't expect that this guy would be provoked by his opponent before the first half was over. Then what level could he play in the next game?Scott is skeptical.Look at the timer, now there are only more than 4 minutes before the end of the first half, he simply replaced Martin with Jefferson, hoping that the latter can wake up on the bench, he doesn't need Put a powder keg on the field.

After sitting back in his seat, Martin was still angry and panting heavily. A staff member next to him handed him a bottle of sports drink. He unscrewed the cap and drank half of it in one go. With a sip, a person sat there sulking.Scott didn't plan to bother him, so let him be quiet for a while, and slowly figure it out!
