You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 167 Attack with all your strength, defend with all your strength

In the fifth game of the season, the Pistons defeated the Lakers away.

O'Neill made a big kill that night, and no one could stop him.

Kobe played 16 minutes that night and scored 11 points and 4 rebounds, which is considered a budding figure, but it is far less dazzling than O'Neal.

This defeat made Collins firm in his idea of ​​changing the system, and the primary replacement plan was Gentry's running and bombing.

Since that day, Gentry has replaced the original offensive coach Mark Lauria's position and single-handedly trained the team's offense.

The players were unprepared for this, and Gentry had a simple concept instilled in everyone: nine points on offense and one point on defense.

"It's just fucking nonsense!"

Rick Mahon objected to changing the style of play because this distribution of offense and defense was incompatible with his consistent basketball philosophy.

What is certain is that what Collins has set will not be changed because of the opposition of a veteran.

April 11

Existing attribute points: 4200.

Mo Mengchen glanced at the system, they were on the road.

This time, they will play three away games against the 76ers, Raptors, and Magic.

These three teams have pretty good No. 76 positions. The 95ers are now headed by Iverson and Stackhouse. The Raptors have the [-]th Rookie of the Year Amare Stoudemire. Needless to say, the Magic , After the shark is gone, Penny is the boss.

None of them are easy to chew on, and this is also the first game after the Pistons changed their tactical system.

Collins has high hopes for Mo Mengchen.

Changing to running and gunning, the person who benefited the most is Mo Mengchen, because the leader of running and gunning is the point guard, and no one in the Pistons is more suitable as the helmsman than him.

Collins obviously listened to what Mo Mengchen said: the previous system made him very uncomfortable, so it needs to be changed.

Now that it's changed, it doesn't have to be changed to a triangle offense.

Mo Mengchen was a bit entangled in his heart. The current changes are beneficial to him, but Gentry's concept of running and bombing is too extreme. What is running and bombing with nine points of offense and one point of defense?Wouldn't it be simpler not to defend directly?

Those who are dissatisfied with this include the teaching assistant team headed by Mark Jones.

Needless to say, Jones, who advocates the triangle offense, holds high the banner of opposition. As long as there is a problem in the game, he must be the first to jump out and throw cold water.

In addition, there are two assistant coaches: Fallon Foster and former offensive coach Matt Lauria have fallen to him.

Compared to Jones, Collins' supporters are in the majority, some old men on the coaching staff, plus Zina McClain and Gentry.

Core State Arena

On game night, the Motown fighters gather in the tunnel.

"We're going to play a very different basketball tonight, so good luck!" Hill said.

Ma Hong scolded: "I don't like this bullshit tactic!"

"Shut up, you won't be able to fight for a few minutes anyway." Barkley opened his mouth with a sharp knife that pierced Ma Hong's chest.

Mo Mengchen interrupted them: "Whether the tactics are suitable or not, the coaching staff has the final say, we just play."

"That's right, we're just playing ball!"

Everyone shouted.

"123!"

"Pistons!"

They ran into the arena together, ready to meet their opponent, the crane tail in the East, Tim Duncan's top contender.

It is said that while Celtics fans pay attention to their games, they also search for 76ers' battle reports on the Internet or on TV.

If the 76ers win the game, they will be happier than if they lost the game.

Although the 76ers have selected outside star players such as Iverson and Stackhouse through the draft, it will take a few years before they can form their combat effectiveness. They have to accumulate as much talent as possible before impacting their performance.

Seeing Mo Mengchen, Stackhouse led Iverson over: "It seems that there will be a good show tonight."

Mo Mengchen's gaze swept past Jordan's successor and landed on Iverson. If there is no accident, they will fight many times in the East in the future.

"Listen, I will blow you up, blow you up completely!"

Facing Mo Mengchen, Iverson stretched out his hand and said these words.

Mo Mengchen held his hand perfunctorily, without exerting any strength, and quickly let go as if Iverson's hand was poisoned.

"Is this doctor so rude? I haven't shaken your hand yet." Stackhouse sneered.

Mo Mengchen turned around and said, "Rabies is contagious."

Stackhouse angrily said to Iverson: "As you said, blow him up completely, understand?"

Iverson didn't like his tone of ordering others, as if he was a veteran who had played for many years, even if he was a veteran, no one could treat him like this.

Iverson was too lazy to get angry with him at this time, just nodded.

"Okay, what's the big deal? There are a lot of people who beat Mo, what's the big deal?" Hill wanted to smooth things over for them, but Stackhouse didn't accept the settlement at all. Even in the face of Hill, who looked like a good old man, he blushed to the extreme, "What's the matter with you? Go to hell, Duke stupid pig!"

Hill gave him a deep look, didn't reply, just laughed out loud.

You idiot deserve to be sprayed.

Mo Mengchen didn't intend to help Hill get ahead, this guy is too gentle, this is not acceptable.

He very much hoped that Hill would one day respond to the crude trash talk.

Ten minutes later, the starters of both sides appeared one after another.

Because he gave up defense, Collins put Barkley and Thorpe in the starting lineup, leaving Ratliff and Wallace on the bench.

The 76ers started with Iverson, Stackhouse, Clarence Witherspoon, Derek Coleman and Scott Williams.

The good news is that the 76ers are also a team without a big center, and the jump ball at the beginning is finally something to watch.

For the first time, Mo Mengchen had a sense of anticipation for Thorpe's jump ball. In the last game against the Lakers, he was going to jump the ball with O'Neal. It felt so good.
"boom!"

"Detroit wins the ball!"

The moment Mo Mengchen took the ball, he started and accelerated. Iverson wanted to block it, but his body pushed forward - pushed away!Even his teammates were surprised, it was so easy?

Mo Mengchen didn't expect it either, but it wasn't surprising. Iverson is small and still a rookie. It's normal for him to be weak. His current strength is considered top-notch among guards, and he only lacks weight.

His arrival was beyond everyone's expectations. The 76ers had no defense at the basket, and Mo Mengchen stood on tiptoe in two steps, as if he was about to make a layup.

"Be careful behind you!"

Houston reminded loudly.

Mo Mengchen has already noticed the shadow around him, if he guessed correctly, it must be that idiot Stackhouse.

The layup hand spun in an instant, and Mo Mengchen held the ball back a little.

Stackhouse missed the ball and cursed in the air, and behind him, Hill followed up with a dunk and scored.

2 is better than 0
"Do you know how powerful I am?"

Hill yelled at Stackhouse.

Mo Mengchen felt that he could be more rude, but it was hard for him to talk trash like this.

"Aaron, give me the ball!"

cried Stackhouse, moving forward alone.

Iverson didn't even look at him, and perhaps not even a single letter of his voice fell into his ears.

Coleman served Iverson: "Detroit's No. 9 defense is very poor, blow him up."

"What do you need to say, old man?" Iverson snorted coldly.

Coleman smiled and said, "I want to tell you that if you go in and you can't see the basket, I'm by your side."

"Can't see the rim? Joke!"

Iverson's arrogance made him not accept Coleman's suggestion at all.

Coleman doesn't intend to let this defiant kid take advice, just remind him that it's enough for him to pass the ball anyway.

Stackhouse's request for the ball was ignored.

"Alan?"

"Stop arguing!" Houston laughed, "They won't give you the ball, you idiot!"

At this time, the whole world didn't know that Iverson would sway from left to right.

Mo Mengchen knows, so what?
Iverson didn't say a word, and Mo Mengchen liked him, but before he made a move, the sense of oppression, the aura of imminent disaster, and the power ready to explode were enough to make anyone nervous.

Standing in front of him, Mo Mengchen found it difficult to move. At this moment, Iverson lowered his body's center of gravity, and his left hand seemed to be about to put the ball away. An action on the verge of turning his wrist broke Mo Mengchen hard. defense.

He swoops like a hawk!
There is no suspense, his breakthrough belongs to the top ranks of the league, Mo Mengchen can't prevent it, and can't catch up.

Thorpe's experience saved the ball.

Iverson rushed in, but was stuck in the most fatal position by Thorpe. Here, he could not shoot or do other actions, because his stature was too short, and Thorpe could easily block his ball.

He saw Coleman, who was ignored, and remembered his previous words. He hesitated for a moment, the ball was passed by him, and Coleman dunked the ball over Thorpe's head and scored.

Stackhouse wanted to ask Iverson for clarification. He wanted to know what this rookie meant, but he didn't pass the ball to him. He was ready to blow up the Pistons' defense, but the ball didn't come.

"Don't ask, that rookie is the No. [-] pick, why does he listen to you?" Houston kept fanning the flames in his ear.

Stackhouse will not be easily provoked, and the Pistons' offense is faster than expected.

It was just a pick-and-roll, Houston cut out to catch the ball, not a chance, he still shot.

If you don't advance, retreat at full speed.

In turn, Iverson made a surprise attack, and this time he scored successfully.

4 is better than 2
"The coach said one point of defense, but you really only have one point of strength to defend?" Mo Mengchen asked.

"otherwise."

There are rookies who don't respect veterans, not only the 76ers, but also the Pistons.

Thorpe looked at Mo Mengchen in fear.

"Damn it! Attack with all your strength, defend with all your strength, there are no nine points and one point, no matter offense or defense, we must go all out!"

Mo Mengchen yelled loudly, his teammates heard it, and the coaches off the court heard it too.

Their expressions were different, but the faces of the players all showed approval.
