All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

Free people of Philadelphia!

I, Allen Iverson, declare in the name of freedom, it’s time to sound the clarion call for rebellion!

Let us unite to defeat Malone, defeat Stockton, save the balls, and protect the armpit hair!

On the court, looking at the big eyes that exuded the protagonist's light, Su Feng was very grateful that he had read enough chicken soup articles for the soul in his previous life.

You know, Sloan is not a coach like Van Gundy who keeps the same routine in every game.

He has obviously studied this 76ers team.

Tonight the Jazz shrunk the basket, and with the interference of Stockton, Iverson's breakthrough could not cause damage, and the short mid-range jumper was also ineffective.

As the team that plays the most slippery pseudo-zone defense in this era, the Jazz's strategy tonight is still to fight "Ai Feng" to the death.

Su Feng discovered this as early as tonight when he played Russell for the second time in singles.

Rather than saying that they foolishly chose an offensive starting point within the three-point line, it is better to say that the Jazz deliberately guided themselves to play singles with Russell within the three-point line.

After all, Su Feng's previous NBA three-point shots were a bit bluffing.

Sloan was also afraid that the Jazz would be taken away by the 76ers inexplicably, so before the game started tonight, Sloan emphasized to Russell that he would let Su Feng make a mid-range shot but not a three-pointer.

Therefore, Su Feng knew very well that if the 76ers wanted to defeat the opponent tonight, Iverson would have to shoot more three-pointers tonight.

In Su Feng's previous life, in the 11 career encounters between Iverson and Stockton, excluding the time when Stockton was old and frail, the only game the 76ers won against the Jazz was when Iverson was in He made 4 of 5 shots from beyond the three-point line, successfully helping the 76ers open up space on the court.

There are so many accidents in history...

In fact, Stockton's defensive strategy against Iverson is to easily allow Iverson to get an open three-point shot.

Stockton was very close when defending. He used small moves to prevent Iverson from dribbling comfortably. Even if Iverson could use his speed to pass him, he could immediately take advantage of his teammates' contraction coordination. Defense, complete interference when Iverson shoots from mid-range.

But here comes the problem...

What if Iverson then distances himself and shoots directly from outside the three-point line?

This season, under Su Feng's free initiative, Iverson took 7 three-pointers per game and hit 2.5 of them.

Although the shooting rate is only 35.7%, according to the magic ball theory, a three-point shooting rate of more than 35% is equivalent to a 50% mid-range shooting rate.

Of course, a basketball game is not a theory, but as long as Iverson shoots more three-pointers tonight and throws accurately, the Jazz will inevitably have to adjust their defensive thinking.

And in this way, Su Feng's opportunity came.

Because the nemesis of pseudo-zone defense is the three-pointer.

On the court, the Jazz attacked, and this time Stockton and Malone played a classic pick-and-roll.

At a 45-degree angle on the left wing, Malone suddenly turned his head and went straight to the basket when he was about to set a pick-and-roll for Stockton. Stockton fed Malone in time. After receiving the ball, Malone dunked with one hand, showing his reputation as the elbow king!

6 to 7.

To be honest, this kind of tacit pick-and-roll cooperation cannot be developed overnight.

As the saying goes, if you play well in the pick-and-roll, you won't have any trouble attacking.

You know, in the future Suns era, the pick-and-roll between Stoudemire and Nash will be an orange landscape.

It was the 76ers' turn to attack. Iverson, who flashed his big eyes with determination and courage, risked breaking the egg again, and used his signature crotch dribble.

Don't ask, ask just this kind of dribbling habit, how is it possible for you to ask Iverson to change it immediately?

Fortunately, this time, when Stockton extended his evil hand to himself in the name of stealing the ball, Iverson reacted quickly.

Saying it may affect Iverson's tall image in the minds of the Emmies. At this moment, Iverson really tightened his anus and hurriedly dribbled away...

That is to say, Iverson's dexterity. If he had been replaced by a child's shoe that could dribble up to more than 60 points, wouldn't it mean that the tire would burst before the car started?

On the court, after opening up a gap with Stockton, Iverson decisively fired again from the top arc!

The righteous Allen Iverson once again blasted the Jazz's basket with a free bombardment!

Swish——!

6 to 10!

On the sidelines, coach Sloan frowned. He really didn't like the 76ers' unreasonable offensive method.

Why not choose to take two steps forward and take a steady shot instead of betting on a three-pointer?

There is no way, apart from the restrictions brought by the rules, this is the difference in concepts brought about by different times.

When the Jazz attacked, Stockton originally wanted to pass the ball to Hornacek according to his movement, but for some reason, in the two games against the 76ers this season, Stockton always felt that Hornacek Ke is an actor invited by the opposite party.

Look at Hornacek's hurried shot. Is this the ball his "death gun" should throw?

On the court, Hornacek wanted to die.

Because Su Feng was like his shadow, he couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard he got.

On the importance of practicing defense well.

In Su Feng's previous life, God knows how many games in the future those crazy 3D players would drag the opponent's boss to force a 50-50 draw...

There are even some players who like to act like daddy whenever they disagree, and occasionally stage a 3D game to kill the entire opposing team.

As Stephen Curry's uncle, Su Feng is naturally Klay Thompson's uncle.

Although I don’t know if Clay has started to contact the NBA under the guidance of his father, but as a responsible senior, Su Feng must point out a clear path for Clay.

Hornacek didn't want to run anymore. He patiently stopped and was ready to enjoy the performances of Stockton and Malone.

This time, the pick-and-roll between Malone and Stockton was successfully defended by Ben.

With little offensive time left, Malone had no choice but to make a jump shot after a feint.

When——!

The ball failed to hit the target. Ratliff happily picked up the rebound and handed the ball to Iverson.

On the field, "Answer" finally rushed forward this time!

I saw him carrying the ball across half the court like a gust of wind, and then he couldn't stop the car... and shot!

On the Jazz bench, Sloan opened his eyes wide.

No, you are a point guard!

This is not what you should do!

On the 76ers bench, although Davis allowed the players to shoot three-pointers, it does not mean...

Swish——!

"A fast-break three-pointer in transition offense like this is what I told Allen before the game, the secret weapon to defeat the Jazz." Davis looked back at Jason and Rick with a calm face and said.

Jason and Rickover.

Brother, you didn’t come back from time travel, right?

How come you've been able to predict the enemy's opportunities lately?

At 6-13, after Iverson hit three consecutive three-pointers, Sloan requested a timeout on the Jazz's side.

Su Feng knew that when Sloan arranged the timeout this time, he would probably ask the Jazz players to expand their defense.

So, when walking back to the bench, Su Feng patted Iverson on the shoulder and said: "Allen, although the three-pointer is free, the breakthrough is more domineering.

As the best breakthrough player in the NBA in my mind, it's time for these bastards to see your breakthrough that even Michael Jordan can't stop! "

Ah, this damn hot blood!

Tell me, Sue, who do you want to see me dunk on?

At this moment, Thanos has not yet attacked the earth, otherwise Su Feng feels that Iverson can defeat Thanos' army alone.

After returning from the timeout, the game continued. After the two Jazz veterans picked and rolled, Malone still passed the ball.

Offensively, Stockton's ability to control the game is truly outstanding.

He hit the ball through the floor, and after the basketball passed through the wicket between Ben's legs, it came to Malone's hands.

In the penalty area, Malone jumped up on one foot, grabbed the ball with his right hand, raised his ax and wanted to split the mountain!

Ratliff, who was assisting in defense, didn't take off well enough, and Malone's left elbow was pressing him down. He was about to be turned into a backdrop by the brutal Malone!

However, just when Ratliff had given up resistance, Su Feng suddenly jumped up from behind Ratliff!

After supporting Ratliff's shoulder with his left hand, Su Feng pressed his right hand firmly on the basketball!

Su Feng, who has a long wingspan, fast lateral movement, and big hands, protected the young Ratliff's newly grown iron heart at this moment.

Rua!

Zhongzhou Arena is completely boiling!

Su Feng, he blocked Karl Malone's dunk!

This is a block that will definitely go into Su Feng's top ten goals in his future career!

"Su Feng's top ten goals in his future career": I don't know why, but I feel offended.

On the court, after being blocked by Su Feng, the basketball hit Ratliff on the back and bounced off the baseline.

"Oh, damn, look what you've done!

Su, I bet you that the 'Postman' is definitely looking for a place to bury himself right now! "

On the court, after Su Feng blocked Malone, the 76ers players rushed towards Su Feng one after another.

At this moment, those who hit their chests bumped their chests, those who gave high fives, and those who pulled their hair out while it was messed up... took advantage of the mess and pulled it out!

Malone was stunned.

Because he never expected that he who was making a background board would actually be made into a background board!

After Su Feng used Ratliff to pole vault, he used all his strength to dunk Malone.

And this kind of lateral block, it would be fine if Malone just made a quick dunk, but this guy also likes to use his ax to chop mountains...

Therefore, before using Mountain Splitting Technique, you must carefully observe the opponent's defense line, and try to split the mountain one-on-one, instead of splitting the mountain one-on-two.

"Hey, Postman, your letter was put in the wrong mailbox."

On the field, after celebrating with his teammates, Su Feng took advantage of the referees' backs to him and suddenly said to Ma Long while wagging his finger.

As for Ma Long, Su Feng could think of 10,000 offensive words that would hurt his heart.

Originally, Malone was very angry when he saw a young rookie wagging his finger at him.

However, after carefully thinking about Su Feng's words...

Ma Long was confused...

Sent to the wrong mailbox?

So...that's my problem?

So...will I lose my job because of this?

At this moment, Ma Long suddenly began to think about life.

On the court, after the Jazz sent a baseline ball, Stockton was shocked when he was about to pass the ball to Malone.

Carl…

Are you, like Jeff, also an actor hired by the 76ers?

Stockton felt like he was being played.

Because Malone was still in a daze, he didn't notice that the ball had been passed towards him.

Ben succeeded in stealing the ball, and at this moment, Malone suddenly realized it!

Amid the cheers of the fans at the Zhongzhou Arena, Iverson, after receiving a pass from Big Ben, dribbled the ball past half court, suddenly passed the ball without looking at anyone, and found——

Su Feng has already set up the gun mount!

Russell, who retreated to the basket immediately, had no time to make up defense.

The "death ray gun" closest to Su Feng rushed towards Su Feng, but it was too late.

The perfect combination of waist and legs, the golden ratio of elbows and wrists, smoothness with a hint of elegance, softness yet domineering, a jade-like figure on the court, and an unparalleled jump shot!

Philadelphia's No. 23, Lower Merion's three-point leader in team history, when the cannonball hit the net, at this moment, the cannon rang out in Zhongzhou!

"Su——————Feng!"

6-16, Zhongzhou Arena, nearly 20,000 76ers fans at the scene roared Su Feng’s name hoarsely along with the on-site DJ.

On the Jazz bench, coach Sloan had a solemn expression.

He knew the Jazz were in trouble tonight.

On the court, Stockton tried to stand up and stop the Jazz's decline, but Iverson, who never gave up, successfully interfered with his jump shot at the last minute.

Ben Wallace turned around and grabbed the rebound. At the scene, the 76ers fans who had not yet sat down shouted in unison: "Attack! Attack! Attack!"

No matter how well-trained they were, when Iverson dribbled the ball through half court this time, the Jazz team on the court was a little uneasy.

The Jazz, who expanded their defense, tried to force the 76ers and front them hard. However, the unparalleled Iverson, how could the Jazz give the Jazz a chance to press themselves?

Crotch, crotch, crotch.

It wasn't until the last moment when the Crossover was pulled out that you realized, oh, damn, this bastard is on the right side again!

Stockton hurriedly chased back, while the other Jazz players inertly recovered their defense.

At this time, Su Feng hurriedly pulled out from the flank.

On the field, Iverson had quick eyesight and quick hands, and once again delivered the shells to Su Feng's artillery position.

Ben and Ratliff inadvertently blocked an excellent opportunity for Su Feng.

Twenty years from now, when people look back on this game, they will all sigh with emotion: It turns out that this style of play also existed in the 1990s.

By various chances, the water was splashing and the waves were turbulent in Philadelphia tonight.

Hesitation will only lead to defeat.

Facing Hornacek who came to help defend, Su Feng fired again!

Swish——!

The 76ers used five consecutive three-pointers to stop the Utah Jazz twice!

6 to 19!

At the scene, people who had been dozing before suddenly woke up.

Listen to the cheers and look at these excited fans. Do you really think that Philadelphia fans come here just for the cup of Quartz and hamburgers?

No, they were just for two talented young men.

When Su Feng and Iverson walked off the court together after high-fiving, the 76ers fans were so happy.

On the Jazz bench, coach Sloan, who called timeout twice in a row, had a solemn expression.

He couldn't help but glance at Davis.

John, was this all part of your plan?

Use three-pointers to deal with pseudo-zone defense?

very good.

Coach Sloan made a note in his little notebook. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel that Larry Brown's judgment was correct.

John Davis, the future is indeed limitless.

"Su, you just scored two three-pointers, why are you looking so unhappy?" During the timeout, Iverson looked at Su Feng curiously and said.

"No, I'm very happy!" Su Feng forced his lips to smile, showing a "melon"-like smile.

"Why do I always feel like you're forcing a smile?" Iverson said doubtfully.

"By the way, Allen, do you still want to know why I skipped college and entered the NBA?" Su Feng hurriedly changed the subject.

"Remember, you said you wanted to fight Michael Jordan." Iverson laughed.

Chicago.

Michael Jordan, who was resting, did not go anywhere like Su Feng did yesterday. Instead, he enjoyed the game between the Jazz and the 76ers alone at home.

Different from those Western Conference teams that stare at each other, Jordan has been silently paying attention to these Western Conference giants.

Because Jordan knows very well that if you want to win the championship, you have to watch all teams play.

However, watching the Jazz suddenly hit a climax by the 76ers, Jordan, who should be happy, was not happy at all.

Yesterday, after the game, Jordan had asked his coach for the 76ers' recent game videos.

You may not believe it, but the "old gangster" is studying a rookie.

A rookie who dared to call him to retire has caused all the recent troubles for the Bulls.

Jordan had paid attention to the Eastern Conference record rankings, and then when he saw the Philadelphia 76ers team name in the Eastern Conference, the "old gangster" was silent for a long time.

Jordan certainly didn't think that the 76ers could defeat the Bulls' eight, but when he thought of the scene after the previous game with the 76ers, the "old gangster" became melancholy.

In addition, this afternoon, when the team was resuming training, Jordan noticed that many players were already talking about kicking Rodman.

However, after watching tonight's game between the 76ers and the Jazz, Jordan is very clear that without Rodman, even if the Bulls can reach the finals, they will not be able to defeat the powerful group in the Western Conference.

O'Neal, Malone, Kemp, Olajuwon...

Among the four major names in the Western Conference, who on the team does not have high-quality insiders?

In fact, Rodman has always been a tool man in the heart of the "old gangster".

Otherwise, he would not say in a future interview that if he were the boss, he would be willing to sign himself, Pippen and Jackson at a sky-high price, and then add Rodman after a long period of time. words.

During the suspension, Rodman was not idle. He hunted for women everywhere, and there was no shortage of media reporters taking candid photos around him.

It's not without reason that the Bulls players don't like Rodman, because at this time, in the eyes of the Bulls players, everyone should be united.

However, Rodman, who had his own way of doing things, slapped the Bulls PR department in the face time and time again.

"Zen Master" and Jordan both decided to take action.

Next, the "Zen Master" will have a heart-to-heart talk with Rodman, while the "Old Rogue" will be responsible for casting a divine gaze on Rodman and making him put on those damn pants.

"I really hope this 76ers can reach seventh place in the Eastern Conference and try to beat Pat Riley's team." Jordan said with a smirk on his face while staring at the TV.

And when the camera returned to the Zhongzhou Arena, after the cannons rang out in Zhongzhou, the place that had just calmed down became boiling again...

…
