Standing pretty old

Chapter 134 The 76ers in Memories

"Are you that popular Chinese rookie recently?" Iguodala greeted Ruan Erniu with a smile.

Er Niu also laughed and said, "There are three Chinese players playing in the NBA this season. So far, the one with the best record is indeed me!"

"Then let me introduce myself again, hello! Kraft, I'm Iguodala!" The little AI (Iguodala) just took over after the big AI (Iverson) left last season. He is already a real big brother.

However, the 76ers' record so far is only 5 wins and 11 losses. It is a challenge for Iguodala to drag the team into the playoffs.

After the routine opening ceremony, Ruan Erniu stood in front of the Haitian Dalembert, ready to compete with him for the jump ball.

Facing the 211cm tall Dalembert with amazing bounce, Ruan Erniu lost the jump ball without any surprise.

For Er Niu, he is really at a disadvantage with this slender inside jumper.

Mo Wenwei of the United States - Andre Miller dribbled the ball across the half.

Domestic commentators like to call him Old Miller since then. He was born in 1976 and is only 31 years old this year. He is actually at the peak of his career.

Facing Anthony Johnson, who was born in 1974, the old Miller was as young as a rookie.

He easily broke through the former's defense. Facing Ruan Erniu's supplementary defense, he passed a ground hit pass to Dalembert who was ambushing on the weak side. The Haitian rose from the ground and made a dunk.

Ruan Erniu quickly served the bottom line ball, and Jon Jonsen dribbled the ball to break through. Facing Reggie Evans who was defending well, Jon Jonson gave the eclipse on the flank.

Eclipse soared into the air, and after making a full stretch in the air, he dunked the basket with one arm to complete the score.

In contrast, Dalembert's dunk, the magnificence and beauty of the lunar eclipse are naturally far superior to the former.

This is an away game. If it was in Atlanta, the fans would have cheered loudly.

In the 76ers' offensive round, Iguodala ate the lunar eclipse alone.The lunar eclipse, who is obviously taller, did resist the offense of the first brother at the beginning, but Iguodala, who is more flexible in his feet, quickly used a half-turn fake to deceive the defense, and scored a layup at a 45-degree angle .

76ers coach Maurice Cheeks applauded Iguodala off the court.The fundamental reason why he was able to finally drive away "Son of Philadelphia" Iverson last year was that he was also a "Son of Philadelphia".

Look at the retired No. 10 jersey fluttering on the court. This is the proof that Cheeks led the 82ers to the championship in the 83-76 season.

Most Chinese fans are unfamiliar with the current 76ers.

Because in the memory of countless people, the Philadelphia 76ers should be composed of the best defensive player - Mutombo, the super sixth man McGee, the defensive guard - Snow, and the eternal "I Ai" team.

Although the more powerful Lakers won the championship that year, it was the 76ers who won the respect.

When Iverson took 13 injuries and took a rest, he led the 76ers to defeat the teams in the East all the way and reached the finals.

When Iverson single-handedly scored 48 points in the first game of the Finals and led the 76ers to their first victory in the Finals, people clearly saw that it was David who was about to defeat Goliath.

It's a pity that the Sharks, who were at their peak, finally took the Lakers to kill the 76ers and opened a new dynasty era for the Lakers.

Even so, this season has become Iverson's glorious season.His lonely back and the tenacious spirit of the 76ers have become unforgettable memories for Chinese fans.

In fact, not only Iverson, but the entire Sixers team has more or less injuries.

The well-known commentator Da Xu quoted an original sentence from the American media in the commentary seat of the imperial court: "This was supposed to be a team lying in the hospital, but now they appeared on the stage of the finals."

Time flies, time is like a song.With Iverson's departure, the current 76ers have basically no connection with the 2000ers in 76.

The departure of AI may be a good thing for the accelerated reconstruction of the team, but fans of the 76ers will still miss their four-time scoring champion from time to time.

The past will eventually pass, and the current 76ers belong to Iguodala.

The moon eclipse was played by Brother Yi once, and he felt that it was a bit embarrassing, so he immediately took the initiative to ask for the ball on the offensive end.

After Er Niu got the ball first in the high position, he made a horizontal plug and sent the ball to Yue Eclipse.

The lunar eclipse raised his hand without hesitation, but he missed!

Under the defense of Dalembert and Reggie Evans, Er Niu cleverly hit the ball out, Marvin Williams got the ball, and he immediately passed the ball to the unguarded Eclipse hands.

The same position of the lunar eclipse made a jumper and hit it!
Iguodala held the ball on the offensive end. As the leader of the team, he was scored by the opponent's third leader in response.Will he take the initiative to attack?

Ruan Erniu has adjusted his position, ready to block the first brother's breakthrough at any time.

But to Er Niu's expectation, the first brother did not attack by himself, but passed the ball to the old Miller who made an air cut.

Old Miller evaded Ruan Erniu, who was unable to return to the defense in time, and scored a layup.

See through my intentions?Ruan Erniu murmured in his heart.

Er Niu held the ball in a low position and easily cut through Dalembert's defense. Facing the 203cm Evans, Ruan Er Niu poured the ball into the frame with both arms. AND-ONE!

The strength of the Haitians is far inferior to his own, and he is not tall enough for a rebounding idiot. Ruan Erniu feels that he will definitely be able to score a high score today.It depends on whether you have the desire to attack.

In the 76ers' offensive round, Iguodala still passed the ball to the old Miller to let him organize.

The leader of the 76ers is not sticky to the ball, so old guys like Miller who need the ball have room to survive.

With the help of Evans' pick-and-roll, Miller Sr. hit a 20-pointer with a 2-foot pull-up jumper.

However, after that, the first quarter of the game entered the rhythm of the Eagles' attack.

First, Jiong Jisen singled out Willie Green, and then Ruan Erniu succeeded in beating Dalembert in the paint.

Then Er Niu, Jiong Jisen and Yue Eclipse played the lob game again.

As Er Niu and Lunar Eclipse took off frequently, the air defense sirens sounded over Philadelphia.

It's a pity that it's useless. Marvin Williams turned into a green leaf in this quarter and created empty cut opportunities for his teammates many times.Er Niu and Yue Eclipse lived up to expectations and completed empty-handed performances many times.

At the end of the first quarter, the two teams scored 29:17, and the 76ers at home fell behind by 12 points.

During the intermission, Ruan Erniu said to Jiongsen: "Iguodala doesn't seem very excited, why doesn't he take the initiative to attack?"

Jon Jonsen drank his saliva and said: "Don't be surprised, not everyone is suitable to be a leader. Although Iguodala became the team leader last season, he still doesn't understand that the leader's scoring is important for a team. The importance of the team!"

Ruan Erniu nodded and said, "So, he doesn't have enough desire to attack?"

囧囧sen said while wiping his sweat and shouting: "It is entirely possible, but we still have to be careful. To some extent, the 76ers are very similar to us. Once their defensive strength increases, we will also have a lot of trouble. !"

PS: Both David and Goliath are characters in the Bible. David is the greatest king of Israel. In the first battle of his life, he defeated the Philistine giant Goliath with a trebuchet.This story is extremely exciting, and it is called by the West as a typical example of the weak overcoming the strong. Friends who are interested can check it out by themselves.
