Chapter 177 It's Him
Three days passed in a flash. On the morning of November 11, the Celtics conducted an offensive and defensive drill, and then they ushered in the challenge of the Denver Nuggets.

The reason for conducting an offensive and defensive drill before the game against the Nuggets is actually to look down on the Nuggets. Rick Pitino feels that the intensity of the game against the Nuggets will not be enough to train the team. So an offensive and defensive drill was carried out.

And the reason why they look down on the Nuggets so much is because the Nuggets have been so bad this season. In order to lose, they almost sent away all good players, such as Antonio McDyess being sent to the Suns, Dell E. Liss was sent to the Sonics.In fact, they won only 11 games this season, if Johnny does not change history.

Since the start of the game, the Nuggets have a record of 0 wins and 5 losses. It can be said that against this team that is aiming for the worst record in history, the Celtics only need to show their strength a little bit to win this game. game.

But in this way, the level of exercise in the game is obviously not enough, especially for the Celtics who now need games to hone their fast break tactics, a high-intensity confrontation game is obviously very important.

In the end, the Celtics won the game easily. Jonny only scored 22 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, and sat on the bench because he really didn't need to continue playing.And Chauncey Billups, who has been training with Johnny for almost a week, continued to start this game. Facing the weak defense of the Nuggets, Chauncey Billups played the best game of his NBA career so far .

He scored 27 points and 8 assists in the game, which is considered a real explosion, and Rick Pitino also hopes that Chauncey Billups can maintain this performance, although Rick Pitino himself does not think Likely.

After defeating the Nuggets, the Celtics rested for another two days and continued to play at home. They ushered in the challenge of the Toronto Raptors. However, the Celtics spent some hands and feet.

Facing his old teammate and old rival Nick Anderson, Jonny scored 33 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists, but his teammates were not strong enough. The game was delayed until the final quarter to decide the winner.And an interesting thing happened in this game. A rookie of the Raptors faced Johnny after coming off the bench. Pointing at Johnny with both hands up, he provoked Johnny.

This made Johnny shake his head amusedly, but it also aroused Jonny's competitive spirit. He looked at the rookie's back and saw the name "McGrady" written on it. Then, Johnny used a Remember that almost the same dunk returned a ball. Originally, Jonny thought that this heads-up would go on until the little rookie had a rest, but then the little rookie couldn't catch the ball.

This made Johnny feel a little regretful. Judging from the matchup between Johnny and this rookie just now, this rookie is definitely a master. Maybe he can make a big difference in the league. The premise is that this young player can get enough opportunities. But obviously, in this Raptors team, he couldn't even touch the ball.

So, after the game, Jonny found the rookie and said something that made the rookie think for a long time: "If you want to succeed, get out of here."

After the Raptors game, the Celtics won three consecutive victories. Jonny soon forgot about the rookie player who made him a little optimistic, and went to Philadelphia with the team.

The Celtics and the 76ers lost both games in the preseason. The media at the time used these two games to argue that the Celtics were bad, but now, the Celtics have 7 wins and 1 win. The loss ranks first in the East, but the 76ers are only 2 wins and 5 losses at this time, and they are still trapped in internal strife. Among the team's troika, Allen Iverson and Derek Coleman have a quarrel. The ball rights conflicted, and the two didn't even pass the ball to each other. Derek Coleman could only score by grabbing rebounds, which caused the 76ers to be quite injured.

The game was held at the Wachovia Center. Although it was a match between the two representatives of the 96 generation, the reputation of the 96 golden generation had not yet been established. Among the entire 96 generation, only Jonny Lee and Allen Iverson played All-star performance, other players like Sharif Abdul Rahim, Stephen Marbury, Ray Allen are on the way to the All-Star.Therefore, in people's eyes, the quality of the 96 draft was a little bit higher than the previous ones.

So the re-meeting between Jonny and Allen Iverson, although it has attracted a lot of attention, is far from meeting the later generations of Allen Iverson and Kobe.

In this game, the main theme of the Celtics is revenge, and they want to avenge the two arrows in the preseason.From the very beginning of the game, Jonny faced Allen Iverson on the defensive end and used fierce defense to deal with Allen Iverson.Iverson is a great scorer, but he is also an unstable scorer. Physical limitations make Allen Iverson rely too much on his skills, his crossover, and under Johnny's tough defense , Allen Iverson showed signs of getting lost from the very beginning of the game.

Johnny fights for every ball, and Allen Iverson plays every ball very hard, and sometimes Johnny will be confused by Allen Iverson's crossover, but there will always be behind Johnny. There are supplementary defenses from teammates, such as Ben Wallace, such as Bruce Bowen.

And in this case, Allen Iverson, known as the answer, can no longer give an answer in this game.As the game progressed, the 76ers began to fall behind unexpectedly, falling behind by 7 points in the first quarter and 18 points at halftime. The bigger they got, the more anxious they became.

Finally, in the second half of the third quarter, when the Celtics mercilessly expanded the point difference to 30 points, Allen Iverson started to mess around. cast.And this irresponsible style of play made Derek Coleman, who had conflicts with him, angry, and the two began to throw each other.

However, compared with Allen Iverson, Derek Coleman did not encounter Iverson's inhuman defensive treatment, so Derek Coleman's shots are much more accurate.

During an attack, Allen Iverson came by himself and directly pulled up to shoot. At this time, Johnny, who had already figured out Allen Iverson's routine, directly rushed forward and blocked Iverson's vision. Of course it didn't go in.

At the basket, Ben Wallace stuck Derek Coleman tightly. Seeing this, Jonny immediately launched a fast break, but the scene after that surprised Jonny.Derek Coleman, who was stuck by Big Ben, jumped out from behind Big Ben, overwhelmed Big Ben and grabbed the rebound, followed by a smart step-back mid-range jumper, and hit it straight away!
Strong rebound!Skillful technical moves!It fully shows the strength of Derek Coleman who was once selected as an All-Star.Johnny could only complain about it with a bang.But then the 76ers collapsed very quickly.

After Allen Iverson missed another shot, Derek Coleman didn't turn around to defend, but pointed directly at Allen Iverson's nose and cursed, internal strife!Everyone was excited, which was a rare scene.

The reporters stood outside the field and took photos, but the referee had to interrupt the game and began to whistle to persuade them to fight.The Celtics players stood on the periphery excitedly watching.Jonny asked Dana Barros beside him with a look of astonishment, "Is there a conflict between Allen Iverson and that big man?"

"That's right, you don't know?" Dana Barros looked surprised, meaning that you didn't know that Allen Iverson and Derek Coleman had conflicts, but everyone knew it.

Johnny didn't care about Danabaros' expression, he seemed to have thought of something, and clapped his hands excitedly: "It's him!"
