Chapter 156
The Denver Nuggets are located in Denver, Colorado. When it comes to the Nuggets, I believe that the majority of Chinese basketball fans will think of two things: high altitude, Anthony and Iverson.

The average altitude of Denver is 2000 meters high. Although the absolute height is not scary, but after several hours of flying, there is still a high-intensity basketball game, which is a physical and mental test for the players. , especially for a lazy man like Dalembert, it is an insurmountable hurdle.

However, for the other players of the Philadelphia 76ers, the problem is not big. Although the old Miller is old, he has always been a role model for professional players. Habit, has maintained a very good physical condition, and is also a well-known iron man in the league. The number of consecutive appearances ranks first in active service, second only to old monsters like Duncan Kidd; tough men like Willie Green and Reggie Evans are even more It's nothing to worry about, especially for a future star like Channing who is young, energetic and strong-willed, this little altitude is not a problem at all.

What impressed Channing the most was the combination of Anthony and Iverson. Before his rebirth, Channing had been a fan of the Golden Double Guns in high school, and there was always a poster of the Nuggets Double Guns in the high school dormitory. Anthony and Iverson stand back to back, with exactly the same ditch hairstyle, exactly the same chic and handsome, and exactly the same scoring masters, making the Golden Spears the most elegant style of play, the best looks and the most fans in the league.

From 2007 to 2008, it was the hottest period of NBA in China. In addition to the influence of Yao Ming, there were also many names familiar to Chinese basketball fans. The picture of shouting at the smiling stone Buddha, Dwight Howard's Superman dunk, etc., the Chinese are the most imaginative and romantic in terms of nicknames. Nowitzki is soft, Duncan stays, Garnett is hard, Webber is cute, Xi Kedong, Ainanka, North Mai, among them, Channing's favorite in high school is Iverson.

On December 2006, 12, the Nuggets made the largest transaction in team history, using point guard Andre Miller, forward Joe Smith and two first-round picks, from the Philadelphia 19ers in exchange for Allen Iverson, who is still in his prime, has built the best scoring Anthony Iverson combination in the league.

Iverson created his brilliance in Philadelphia. The 2001 championship belonged to O'Neal, but the 2000-2001 season was Iverson's season. In Channing's mind, this little man was the hero who single-handedly defeated the Sharks. Personal heroism, in the following seasons, Iverson still maintained a high personal score in Philadelphia, and won the scoring champion many times, but the team's record gradually declined, and the conflict between Iverson and the management gradually Intensification, in the end, the answer went away to Denver, Philadelphia began to rebuild.

Iverson, who came to Denver, is still at his personal peak. In the 2006-2007 season, Iverson averaged 26.3 points per game, ranking sixth in the league. His firepower has not declined much, but he is no longer At the time, the countless incompetent teenagers were gone, but he publicly expressed his willingness to be the second leader with peace of mind. The Nuggets are Anthony's team. This baby-faced small forward averaged 28.9 points per game last year, second in the league.

As we all know, Melon Anthony is the golden generation in 2003. He has the body of a tank inside a small forward. He can rely on strength and bullet speed to fight power forwards in the interior. Because he is the most standard among small forwards, at the same time, Melon is also good at various pull-up jump shots. It can be said that he is a kaleidoscope of offense. There is no technique he does not know on the offensive end, especially the one-drum washing machine, turning around and layup. Can block.

In the golden generation of 03, Wade has already become the leader of the Heat early on, and he even led the team to win the championship. People, only Anthony, who has neither the record of leading the team like Wade nor the status of James, so Melon is also full of energy and has to fight this season.

From the perspective of lineup and strength, the Nuggets' staffing is very strong. The inside center is the best defensive player of last season, Marcus Camby. Rebounding is a career high, and he was selected to the All-Defensive First Team for the second consecutive year.Camby's partner, power forward Kenyon Martin, also provided the team with enough inside strength. The representative of the Beast can get 3.61 points, 13.1 rebounds and 12 blocks per game, which is a very good starter in terms of statistics.

Except for Camby and Martin on the inside, the Nuggets are all good scorers in other positions. Needless to say, Anthony at small forward and Iverson at point guard. As for shooting guard, the Nuggets also have Chinese basketball fans are very familiar with JR Smith, nicknamed Nervous Knife, and later became a member of James' Royal Knights. This JR Smith has no other shortcomings except for his thin body and lack of brain. , Three points unreasonable advance.

With three super scorers, coupled with the training of senior head coach George Karl, the Nuggets' offensive firepower has been fully developed. This season, they averaged 105.4 points per game, ranking second in the league, second only to the mad scientist coached King The State Warriors have already shown how powerful the Nuggets are. They averaged 18.7 points per game in fast breaks, which is also a very terrifying existence. Offensive rounds, physical strength, and offense can kill most NBA teams by relying on this. This is why the Nuggets later formed a track and field team.

Facing such a crazy scoring team, Philadelphia's winning percentage in away games is not high, and coach Cheeks also understands this. In fact, both Philadelphia and Cheeks are in constant change at the moment On the one hand, the team has just established Qian Ning as the new core. It needs to play a few more games to cultivate Qian Ning's bossy temperament as soon as possible. configuration to.

On the other hand, the complete downfall of Billy King also raised Cheeks' status in the team to an unprecedented height. Naturally, I can't spare so much energy to take care of my coaching duties.
