Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 297 The Last Dance

It's really not what he suggested.

Even Lian Feng has forgotten the option of Iverson for a long time.

If history develops normally, Iverson will be traded to the Pistons by the Nuggets, and then his career will plummet from then on, and he will start wandering, and the road to superstar will end here.

But now everything is different again.

Lian Feng couldn't help admiring George Sheehan's gambling spirit.

It can be seen that George Sheehan has not given up on this season.Because the team doctor estimates that he can return at the end of the season. If he is only reimbursed for the regular season, then as long as he finds a way to make the playoffs, there is still hope for him this season after his return.

Lian Feng knew that everything was based on George Sean's trust in him.

And George Sheehan chose Iverson, which is surprising.But it can also be seen from the side that his eyes are still very vicious.

Iverson has fallen into a trough this year-his speed has slowed down, and his fake moves are not as flexible and crisp as before. Fortunately, his CIC skills are still there. As long as he has enough shots, Iverson can still get stable points on the court.

But his high salary does make today's Nuggets feel uncomfortable.Simply put, Iverson has become a liability for the Nuggets.He needs to take up a lot of shots, but there is another guy on the team who needs to take shots.

Very contradictory.

However, the problems encountered by Iverson seem to no longer exist in this Hornets team.None of the teammates here need to hold the ball.

Many people think that Iverson's physical strength and style of play at this time can no longer keep up with the intensity and rhythm of today's games.But Lian Feng, who actually watched Iverson's game, scoffed at this.

Iverson is a player who is almost as tough mentally and physically as Jordan and Kobe in the history of the league!How could it be like a third-rate star among those people?Lian Feng clearly remembered that even Iverson, who had just joined the Pistons, could score 20+, and even hit consecutive key three-pointers against the Lakers in the fourth quarter to lead the team to a comeback.

If you look at the data, Iverson's efficiency in the latter part of his career is not low!
And this is his performance when the Pistons don't get enough playing time and can't guarantee their state!

As long as you give him the ball, he is still the powerful answer!

It seems that George Sheehan really gambled.

Lian Feng lay on the bed, thoughtful, then picked up a piece of potato chips and put it in his mouth.

Hmm... Junk food is really delicious.

……

Iverson was on a flight to New Orleans.

Before the clarification period was over, he had signed a one-year contract with the Hornets.For this, he will lose a lot...money!
For a moment, he wondered if it was worth it.

Money or... a glimmer of hope to win the championship?

He thought of the ok fight against him in 01, and everyone in the world remembered him because of that series.However, the more this is the more regrettable, isn't it?Funny, I'm just the biggest loser.

Honor, money, status, these things are actually enough, he only needs a championship now.

But just a little earlier, he had given up his dream of winning a championship. Sometimes he also thought, hang around for a few more years, and then retire like this, and be a rich man comfortably, appear on the show occasionally, or be a basketball commentator, which is actually quite good.

A while ago, just before Lian Feng was injured, the Pistons were willing to trade Chauncey Billups for themselves.

To be honest, he doesn't care anymore.No matter where it is, it seems to make no difference.

It doesn't matter if you promise.

He has even thought up the formatted rhetoric in front of the media: "The Pistons are great, the locker room atmosphere there is great, and I want to prove that those who have slandered me over the past year are wrong."

But at that moment, Lian Feng was injured.

Then the Hornets guy came up to him and told him he should fight for his career again.

"Hey, have a glass of juice."

Iverson stopped the past flight attendant.When the stewardess brought the juice over, Iverson took a shallow sip, and then fell into deep thought again.

He thought of what George Sheehan had said.

"This is your only chance. Don't you want to have a championship ring?"

I have to say that George Sheehan really knows how to negotiate, and he has grasped his weakness.But that wasn't enough to make him give up going to the Pistons.

He still remembers replying to George Sheehan: "It's as if you can win a championship in the Hornets."

Then George Sheehan pitched another round, but it was the words that really hit his heart.

"We have no certainty of winning. But we can give you enough promises. Before Lianfeng comes back, you will be like the 01ers in 76. You have unlimited shooting power. You only need to give full play to your offensive talent. Others will open up space for you, cover, and even everyone will share the defense for you! You just attack! You know, we have three defensive champions!"

Iverson immediately thought of Ibaka, who once photographed Artest, who was running and jumping at full strength, from the air in a game this season.It impressed him.

But he was silent for a while, and said: "I noticed that you said this was before Lian Feng came back. Then what about after?"

George Sheehan was also silent for a while, and said seriously: "We all know the answer. You can help him enter the playoffs, but he can help you win the championship. This is his team, and I must tell you this without reservation."

After hearing what George Sean said, he couldn't calm down for a long time, but he laughed after a while. "Thank you for your candor."

"So your decision is...need to reconsider?"

"No. My decision is, let's do this together and bring the Hornets to the playoffs! You're right, I want this championship. Except for the Hornets, no team will give me a chance to play like a superstar."

His last stubbornness is that he will never play as a substitute.

The conditions of the Hornets made him unable to refuse.

So... to hell with the Pistons.

He never wanted to play there in the first place.Let it go to hell with the set of rhetoric it recited to the reporters!

……

The plane arrived at the airport.

Iverson walked out from the airport, and layers of fans surrounded the scene.

Seeing this scene, he was a little stunned.

He saw people who loved basketball holding up signs welcoming answers.

Iverson simply waved his hand and hid in the car.

Make up your mind.

Instead of wandering around for a few more years, let's rekindle the fighting spirit that has been extinguished.

Even... Burn the standard of life from a few years to a year!
