I really just want to be a role player

Chapter 294 Iverson's Farewell Battle...Nuggets Edition!

Enter November, Devil's Month.

On the schedule, the first stop is the Nuggets.

It was the eighth best team in the Western Conference last season.

what?
The eighth team dares to be called a strong team, have you given a gift?
You said it was the eighth with 50 wins?

That's okay, it turned out to be the eighth team in the introverted style. Looking at it this way, it is indeed a strong team. Putting it in the East, it is a team in the top four levels.

November 11, Pepsi Center Arena.

Night falls.

The game is about to start.

During the warm-up, Kobe chatted with Iverson and Anthony, the pair of golden guns, for a few cents.

There was something strange on Su Bei's face. It didn't mean that Iverson was not worthy of talking about a few cents, but that Iverson shouldn't be here at all.

Is it the butterfly effect?

I can't explain it, it seems that it can be pushed to butterflies, who asked them to flap their wings?
In the previous life, using James' words, the Nuggets team should be broken up.

In the 07/08 season, the Nuggets with 50 wins met the Lakers, and they were beaten badly. They were swept by the Lakers and shaved their heads. Then, Iverson should have replaced Billups to be the right one. Way.

Now you tell me, Iverson is still here?
Well, you said that this is Iverson's farewell game, and after this game, he will bid farewell to the Pepsi Arena.

Oh, so I'm not sleepy.

Although the Nuggets were beaten badly, the management did not know whether the words were good or not, but they were talented.

In order to sell season tickets, Iverson actually stayed for a few more games. This is to act as a fan, and to trick the fans into the stadium to watch the game is really all-consuming.

No way, in 08, the economic crisis, making money, he is not shabby!

As for grades?Lie flat.

No, didn't Camby of the 96 golden generation be sent to the Clippers?

At this time, the starting lineup for tonight's match was displayed on the big screen in the arena.

The Nuggets started five Tigers, Nene Hilario, Kenyon Martin, Anthony, Iverson, Anthony Carter.

The Lakers starting five, Bynum, Gasol, Subei, Kobe, Fisher.

The game was broadcast live by TNT radio station, with Mike Breen and Marv Albert partnering to explain.

"Carter, Iverson, Anthony...

The Nuggets' tactics are still undefended, with double leaks in the backcourt, one is 1 meters, and the other is 85 meters. The speed and rhythm can be improved, and the Nuggets' running, bombing and offensive basketball can take off.

It's just that it's not easy to play against the Lakers without defense and walk on one foot, even with Iverson and Anthony, two top 10 scorers in the league.

In terms of offensive firepower, the Lakers, who have been running the triangle offense for four years, dare to be second, but no team dares to be first.

In other words, the Nuggets' tactical play picked the wrong opponent. "

"It's true, and it's no wonder this game will be Iverson's farewell game for the Nuggets.

The double guns formed by him and Anthony have really great offensive firepower.

However, the combination of the two is for the championship, but you say goodbye to them cruelly. The Nuggets in the golden double-gun era still cannot pass the first round.

In the 06/07 and 07/08 seasons, whether it was against the Spurs or the Lakers, the Nuggets lost, and there was no suspense in losing.

After two years, we only won one game in the playoffs, and it is unacceptable to change to anyone..."

One is young and invincible, and the other is in his thirties. Iverson has no choice, and it is impossible to change his style of play, so he can only continue to drift.

The era of the four major shooting guards has come to an end, and Kobe is no longer worthy of being called the four major shooting guards.

beep-!
Bynum beat Nene for the Lakers' first attack.

"Fischer passed the ball to Kobe.

Gasol and Bynum move and switch, Subei catches the ball, Fisher makes an air cut, Gasol catches, screens, passes, Fisher attacks the Nuggets backdoor..."

Bang-dang-!
Fisher's entire body hangs from the southeast corner.

2 to 0! !
To be reasonable, in this offensive round, the Lakers' attack is still too safe.

With the IQ of the Nuggets... no, it's defense, the Lakers don't have to play that complicated.

After Gasol and Bynum move and switch positions, Kobe can hang inside.

Or, Kobe can single out Iverson's 183-day loss with the ball.

"However, the fact that the Lakers actually play a team battle is simply a blow to dimensionality reduction.

Fighting heads-up and lineup, the Lakers can achieve crushing. As a result, the Lakers still did not choose to simply come, but stood at a higher level and gave the Nuggets a high-dimensional blow. What do you use to top it? "

It should be said that you can't stand it.

In fact, the Nuggets: Pre-order, come out to stabilize food, if you make a mistake, you will be beaten.

Just come back on offense.

"The Nuggets were on offense, Anthony Carter took the ball upfield and gave it to Anthony.

The status of the Nuggets is distributed, and Anthony is still the master, enjoying unlimited offensive ball rights.

Su Bei defended, Fisher came to help defend, and the inside line shrank to block the penalty area. It was a positional battle. Are the Nuggets here to be funny?

There is not even a stable three-point shooting point. Facing the shrinking zone defense of the Lakers, how do you play? "

After fiddled with the three-threat posture twice, Anthony gave Iverson a lot of face and passed the ball to Iverson to attack.

I have to say, this is very structured.

Off the court, the fans applauded and cheered. They supported Anthony's choice very much, showing the mind of the master.

There is one thing to say, when Iverson is not about to leave, Anthony will never let the ball go. Now that Iverson is about to leave, do you open up the pattern?Is it too late?
Iverson doesn't care, anyway, this is not the team he loves, and it doesn't matter.

"Iverson started, broke to the left, Kobe was passed, Kobe went to the body, Iverson went to the basket, was flanked, there was no chance to attack, the basketball was thrown..."

Swish-!
2 to 2! !
Iverson singled out the entire defense line of the Lakers to score, and Iverson's face was calm. At this moment, he is an emotional killer.

At this moment, Iverson still pretended to be more or less.

It seems to be saying that he is going to leave, not because he is not good at offense, but because the team is not good and the tactics are not good.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with him.

There, at any moment, Iverson can score, even if he is standing in front of the No.

Kobe's face was not cold, nor did he turn into a god of death, but he had a bright smile on his face.

Without the defeat of the 07/08 season, Kobe didn't have to become a revenge prince, he could enjoy basketball more.

Compared with Iverson who has always been a killer, he has grown into a true leader and his temperament has been sublimated.

"Kobe catches the ball, is he going to fight Iverson?

After the three-threat pose, Kobe rushed in, holding Iverson's body, as if entering no one's land.

Kenyon Martin rushed over, and the basketball in Kobe's hand had already flown.

Gasol jumps up, catches the ball in the air, slams it into the hoop..."

Bang-dang-!
In the alley-oop, Gasol's body also hangs from the southeast corner.

4 to 2! !
"Kobe still only has the desire to win in his eyes, but he no longer only has scoring in his eyes, and he is no longer only himself, and he took the initiative to integrate into the Lakers team.

Kobe's ball has become more structured. "

"In the past, Kobe played very egotistically. He was dissatisfied with his status, dissatisfied with the possession of the ball, dissatisfied with the management, and thought that his teammates were all CBA teammates, and that everyone else was a dog, but he himself was a human being... He was the bully on the court, the team's leader. manager.

Now all kinds of dissatisfaction have become what he likes.

Therefore, you can't be satisfied when you play basketball, you have to engage in incidents.

It has to be an event on the pitch, not an event off the pitch. "

Kobe has been engaging in incidents, and Iverson has been engaging in incidents.

The difference is that Iverson is messing around off the court, and Kobe is messing around on the court.

It has to be said that the talent gap between the two is visible to the naked eye, and Kobe's talent is not as good as Iverson's.

How many decades are there in life?

One focused on the court for 10 years, the other focused off the court for 10 years, and an additional 3 years were needed for Kobe to surpass.

Pulling away, back on the court, the Nuggets attack.

Su Bei was cleaned up, Anthony turned his back, arched his buttocks, turned and took a step, when Su Bei followed, Anthony turned in the other direction again, and Su Bei's defense was sent.

"Anthony turned his back, turned around and went to the basket, faced the defense, and made the same shot..."

4 to 4! !
At Anthony's level, it's useless in terms of defensive level and strength.

Whether the defense is good or not has nothing to do with whether Anthony can score.

Don't ask, it doesn't make sense to ask.

Superstars only talk about status, not reason.

Su Bei also had no choice but to work harder on offense.

You can't stand other talents, you just don't have enough talents, so try your best to make up.

"Kobe still didn't play, and the ball was given to Su Bei, and Fisher and Su Bei played an outside screen.

Anthony Carter was blocked, Fisher received a pass from Subei and broke through with the ball, Anthony had to switch defenses.

Fisher passed the ball to Gasol who was pulled out, and the moment he caught the ball, he immediately distributed the ball to Su Bei who returned to the outside.

1 meters vs. 99 meters, Su Bei Yang shot a three-point jumper..."

Anthony Carter can only bet that there is no bullet in Su Bei's three-dimensional pistol.

Bang-dang-!
You guessed right, Su Bei's three-point strike, but no reward.

"Miss a three and the basket goes out.

The battle for rebounds belonged to the Lakers, and Gasol grabbed the rebound.

The inside advantage is on the Lakers side, and Gasol continues to pass the basketball to Subei, which is too much.

The three-point tactics played are a bit embarrassing.

Su Bei didn't hesitate. In front of him stood a 1-meter defender. If he didn't fight now, when would he wait?
It was Su Bei who caught the ball again, and Xia Jiba threw three-pointers randomly..."

Anthony Carter continued to make gestures and stretched out his hands.

This is not bad for him.

Iverson did too.

If he comes to defend, he will be pulled out after losing 183 days.

Also, the Nuggets don't care about defense.

Swish-!
Su Bei is not used to them with the sword in hand.

Scoring, there is no shot that can't be solved, if not, then the second time.

The advantage of rebounding is mine.

Many shots are also an effort.

7 to 4! !
Next, the gap between the lineups of the two sides is visible to the naked eye.

The Nuggets are a playoff-level team, and the Lakers are a championship-level team.

The Nuggets have many flaws, and they can catch a lot of them, while the Lakers have fewer and fewer flaws.

"The Lakers continue to play a fluid triangle offense.

Every player's movement, screen, shot...the coordination is smooth and smooth.

That kind of rhythm is very admirable and pleasing to watch.

This is picturesque basketball. "

"The basketball of the Nuggets is a swarm of bees, rushing up in a mess, scurrying around the beehive.

The personal performance of the stars is indeed very emotional sometimes, but only the comparison can hurt. Compared with the smooth team basketball of the Lakers, the Nuggets' style of play is really ugly. "

After the first quarter, the score was 31 to 33, and the Lakers took a 2-point lead.

"Do you think this is possible? The defensive strength of the Lakers has not been shown.

Maybe, guess, maybe it's because of the fear of injury. In the regular season, it's probably a little bit harder for the Lakers to produce [-]% of their combat power.

After all, playing this level of basketball, the Lakers feel that offense is enough, and it is really unnecessary to play tough defense.

Unless you really can't help it. "

In the second quarter of the game, Jackson became an undercover agent again.

Let Bynum, who entered the contract year, lead the team. At the same time, Ariza in the contract year, Bynum who played the sixth man, Vujacic and Farmar played.

For the Nuggets, Iverson has no reason to rest in the farewell game. Anyway, there will be no Nuggets players, so there is no need to use them.

Ken Field Martin wasn't resting either.

The rotation sent JR Smith, Juwan Howard and Linas Kleiza.

"The Nuggets' rotation is full of offensive players.

This is an offensive bayonet, an undefended blow.

Let's see what kind of scene we can play..."

The second quarter started, and the Lakers' rotation was obviously in poor condition.

The smooth triangle offense disappeared, and the scene entered a chaotic battle.

This is the Nuggets' favorite rhythm.

"The Nuggets' home court advantage began to show, and the Lakers' players came out with opportunities, but it didn't work, and iron shows appeared again and again.

The Nuggets' offense is full of firepower..."

In terms of lineup, I have the advantage. However, with Jackson, the old 6, it is not uncommon for him to be unable to withstand the Nuggets.

On the scene, the Lakers were passive, and Jackson never adjusted, but let the players adjust on the court.

In this case, nine out of ten will be beaten.

This is why the Lakers will not panic when they are in big scenes.

Usually there is Jackson as a cheater, and then create opportunities for the Lakers players to practice.

When something happens, it's not a problem.

You can say that this is Jackson's "long-term plan", but sometimes it is really tricky.

Saying that he only knows how to sleep is not wronging him, he can bear this wronging.

At the end of the second quarter, the score was 31 to 23, and the Lakers' rotation was repaired.

At the end of the first half, the score was 62 to 56. The Lakers trailed by 6 points and entered the locker room to rest.

After 15 minutes of recuperation, the game came back in the second half.

The main lineup of the Lakers attacked to chase points. However, the Lakers have not contributed yet.

The Nuggets fell.

I don't know, I thought I was touched.

Iverson is different. With his personality, he naturally doesn't want to fight the so-called tender farewell battle.

Fucking farewell, f**king f*cking for Anthony's fans, with this time, why not throw a crazy party and celebrate joining a new team and a new city with his brothers.

The Nuggets management obviously overestimated their face and played a farewell game for Iverson.

This is simply business.

Obviously Iverson has fallen out with Anthony, but in order to make money, he forced Iverson to stay for a few games. Isn't this tricking fans into buying season tickets or something?
His eyes are clear and he is not blind, but if it is for the team's performance, he will not procrastinate, thinking it is fighting the landlord!
When people's hearts are scattered, it's hard to lead teammates.

Anthony's condition is also very average. In the third quarter, he was defended by Su Bei and made 4 of 1 shots.

The Lakers still focus on me, playing my own basketball and chasing points leisurely.

In the third quarter of the game, 32 to 24, recovered 8 points and surpassed by 2 points.

In the fourth quarter of the game, it was still properly suppressed.

Last season, the Nuggets were defeated by the Lakers. As soon as the game entered the hard mode, the Nuggets would not be able to play and frequently made strong kills. They wanted to rely on the strength of the stars to change their fate.

The Lakers stood on a higher floor, quietly watching the struggling Nuggets, with a slight upward trend, and immediately suppressed, what do you use to win?
Om-!
With the sound of the beep, the red light is on, and the game time is over.

With a score of 115 to 107, the Lakers had an 8-point advantage and beat the Nuggets.

Anthony made 15 of 5 shots and scored 13 points and 6 assists.

Iverson made 8 of 3 shots, also scored 13 points and added 7 assists.

The golden double guns both played a 13-point posture, plus 13-point assists. It is not wrong to lose the game.

Kobe made 24 of 11 shots and scored 33 points and 5 assists. His performance was even better than the golden double guns.

Gasol made 14 of 7 shots and scored 16 points and 16 rebounds. The rebounding advantage is obvious.

Subei made 9 of 5 shots, 7 of 3 three-pointers, and also had 13 points... No, the output of 13 points, the performance is quite passable, and the recent performance is the same.

Don't ask, it's science to ask role players.

Bynum is in a contract year, so it is natural to give more opportunities to brush up data.

Ariza is also in a contract year and also needs opportunities. This is an unspoken rule.

It is still too difficult to satisfy Kobe's scoring situation first, and to achieve high scores in the current medium-paced basketball era.

Even Bynum felt that Kobe's existence delayed Bynum's growth and his take-off of brushing data.

As a role player in Subei, I really can't want the data to take off, I won't!
