Almighty legend life

Chapter 676 Against Iverson

Nelson rarely called the team's first timeout less than 5 minutes into the game.

"You, or you, what are you worried about? Do you have a 'melon' (American World War II grenade) in your hand? Throw me the ball in your hand, throw it towards the basket, don't worry about the ball Explosions, even explosions can't kill people. And you, Dirk, you're not meant to stay in there, don't fight that alcoholic guy (Glenn Robinson, longtime alcoholic), he's even He is stronger than you when you are asleep, use your strengths, shoot as soon as you can catch the ball, don't make extra moves, he can't cover you, he is more than ten centimeters shorter than you."

In this game, it was not the seven-sixers center Dalembert, the Haitian, but Glenn Robinson who defended Nowitzki. Dalembert was tall enough but couldn't follow Nowitzki to the perimeter Defense, this is the measure taken by the Sixers against the Mavericks' more outside shots. After all, compared with Jamison, Nowitzki's three-pointer is more threatening.

Nelson unceremoniously criticized some underperforming players.

"Liu, you will take over the offense next. Don't hesitate to take the shot. Don't worry about other things. What we have to do now is to get back the score and overtake them. Falling behind will make them mess up."

Nelson is also a little dissatisfied with Liu Hangang's selfless performance at the beginning. Other teams often have conflicts over the ball, but this problem does not exist in the Mavericks. Sometimes Liu Han is a bit too selfless.

After returning from the timeout, the Mavericks served the frontcourt. After receiving the ball from Odom on the sideline, Liu Han dribbled a step and ignored Iverson's pressing and directly shot a three-pointer. The ball went into the frame and the Mavericks recovered the three-pointer.

The [-]ers adopted a reverse thinking method for Liu Han's defense in this game. They strictly guarded against others and let Iverson defend Liu Han, similar to the tactics used by the Pistons against Jordan.

Next, the offense of the Sixers encountered the tight defense of the Mavericks. Iverson had a hard time getting the ball under Liu Han's close pressure, but fortunately, Anthony Walker changed his mind and started to pass the ball, but this time Robinson's low singles Interferenced by Jamison and missed the basket, Dalembert also tried to grab offensive rebounds to launch a second attack, but Odom succeeded in rushing to grab the rebound, and the Mavericks immediately launched a counterattack.

Liu Han went down to the [-]ers halftime and received a long throw from Odom. Iverson also tried to take advantage of Liu Han's unstable foothold to regain the ball, but was pushed aside by Liu Han's shoulder.

Liu Han, who accelerated and charged, dunked directly against the empty 30ers basket, and the Mavericks recovered five points in less than [-] seconds.

The momentum of the Mavericks began to turn prosperous, and at the same time, they became more and more courageous amidst the cheers of the home fans.

At this time, Iverson could no longer bear the impulse in his heart, and he began to take the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt to attack by himself.

Liu Han was blocked by the Haitians, and Iverson also hit a three-pointer without hesitation. Although Iverson's way of playing has been criticized by the outside world, his three-pointers are still of a certain level.

The cores of the two sides have started a real mutual rivalry. This time is different from the last game between the Mavericks and the Knicks. The Knicks Marbury was a rookie in the last game, and he was not a pure core, but this time Liu Han and Ai Fossen's Mutual Biao is a real duel between the core.

Liu Han's single defense ability is very powerful, but this can't stop almost the whole team of the [-]ers from playing for Iverson. In fact, he is quite recognized, it has nothing to do with what happens on the field.

But in comparison, after all, Liu Han's efficiency is higher. The offensive and defensive speed of the Sixers is still not comparable to that of the Mavericks, and Liu Han is more likely to shoot three-pointers, and Iverson is worse. , The three-pointer is not stable enough, and the efficiency will definitely drop if you break into the basket.

At the end of the first quarter, the Mavericks led by five points.

After that, the two teams began to gradually put on substitute players, and Liu Han and Iverson also left the field to rest one after another.

In the first half of the second quarter, the two sides were basically in a stalemate. The rookie John Salmons, who was traded by the [-]ers last season, had an outstanding performance. He showed good potential on both ends of the offense and defense, especially the breakthrough It has its own characteristics.

The Mavericks also performed brilliantly as a substitute. After half a season of training, Xue Yuyang has changed a lot. Although he can't compare with other players in confrontation, his stable mid-range shot still reflects his own value. With Josh Howard around to break through to attract the defense, and Korver to open up space with three-pointers, this gave him enough space for mid-range shots.

When the game reached 5 minutes in the second quarter, the score of the two sides came to 47 to 41, and the Mavericks led by six points.

Iverson and Dalembert returned to the court immediately, and the Mavericks also replaced the main force tit for tat.

Compared with the first quarter, Iverson played more strongly in the next game. Although his body was full of scars after several years of games, he still rushed into the Mavericks again and again like a fighter. Even if this kind of impact is similar to "Don Quixote" at certain times, this is probably the reason why Iverson can have so many fans. In the muscle jungle of the NBA, this small man is as good as he is. In No Man's Land, fans will naturally love this player who is about the same height as himself.

Liu Han tried his best to defend Iverson in defense, but after all, the opponent had his teammates covering him, so he couldn't keep up with the whole process, and the rest of the Mavericks really couldn't compare with Iverson in terms of speed, so Iverson seemed to be invincible on the court. It is impossible, but in fact the gap between the Sixers and the Mavericks is gradually widening.

When Liu Han first entered the NBA, he was famous for his three-point accuracy. He still holds the record for the highest score in the All-Star Game three-point contest. Of course, this record may only be restructured in the three-point contest or the league adds four points. The line will then be broken.

In this game against the Sixers, the opponent adopted the "Jordan Rule" to defend Liu Han, which gave Liu Han enough space for three-point shots. Iverson was powerless to defend, because Liu Han almost shot farther and farther.

Glenn Robinson and Anthony Walker, who still wanted to steal the show in the first quarter, both became supporting roles at this time. The Mavericks players tried their best to open up space for Liu Han. This is probably an unconventional game, because in the current league This kind of competition between core players has seldom occurred. Team basketball is easy to win, but the duel of individual heroism is more attractive to passionate fans.
