NBA bad guys

Chapter 253 Official Start

The Philadelphia 76ers locker room is filled with a weird atmosphere.

On the surface, they all seemed peaceful, and sometimes they would even fight and fight. There was absolutely nothing to talk about in the atmosphere. But Allen Iverson just found it difficult to fit in.

He always felt that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

In other words, what everyone imagines in their hearts is different from what they show. The relationship between everyone is completely different from the relationship between teammates when he was in college.

When I was in college, the relationship between all teammates seemed to be transparent. A good relationship meant a good relationship, and a bad relationship meant a bad relationship.

After arriving with the Philadelphia 76ers, everyone's relationship seemed to be mixed with more things, as if there was a thin film between them, which was hard to explain and very strange.

But everyone seems to think that this kind of relationship is normal. Everyone is very accustomed to this kind of relationship, or the way of getting along. This is what makes Allen Iverson feel the most painful.

Even if he wanted to change it, there was absolutely no way he could do it.

Once, he tried to treat everyone and bought some small gifts for everyone, but no one accepted it.

Allen Iverson felt speechless, but he knew that he seemed to be unable to change anything. He could only try to blend in with everyone and gradually get used to this way of getting along.

Although he doesn't like it, judging from the current situation, this is an impossible solution.

The team's head coach, John Davis, clapped his hands vigorously, his attitude seemed a bit lazy, and then he said to everyone with a smile: "Come over here, I'll talk to you about today's events. opponent."

A group of players came over absentmindedly.

Some of them are very excited. Most of these people are bench players. They hope to be able to play, so they are more or less stubborn in front of the head coach.

There is also a small group of people who behave very calmly, which may be understood as a symbol of self-confidence.

Because the three consecutive wins in the beginning are definitely the capital that can give them confidence.

Although the opponents they defeated before were not particularly strong, in their opinion, the Minnesota Timberwolves they were about to face tonight was actually nothing special.

To put it bluntly, that's what happened.

Jerry Stackhouse is a typical representative of this, and then he said to head coach John Davis with a smile: "I said coach, today our opponent is the Minnesota Timberwolves, but don't say you underestimate me. Despite them, Tom Gugliotta, the most senior and experienced player among them, was actually placed on the bench by the head coach.

With such a ridiculous team, you ask, do we still need to be afraid of them? This is simply ridiculous. Oh, you can listen to me. Among their main lineup, there is a first-year rookie. , and a second-year rookie.

Isn't this exactly the same as Allen Iverson and I, and our draft picks are all higher than theirs.

And their small forwards and their point guards are all very decent players. We don't need to be afraid of them at all. And their center came out of nowhere and seems to be an undrafted player. Really, I don’t think I know how I could lose, really! "

The head coach also showed his own smile. The meaning of his smile was very obvious. It was similar to Jerry Stackhouse. Although he also called everyone to the front, it was just because of the head coach's accusation. He also does not believe that today's Minnesota Timberwolves can defeat his team.

Okay, that’s indeed what it looks like, but so what?

He still had to do a good job of mobilizing before the game, so he said slowly: "It's like this. I want to tell you my next thoughts. I think everything that follows is possible. If it happens, for example, all of our offenses come to a standstill, or the opponent explodes, these are all possible."

Jerry Stackhouse shook his head, and then said: "Well, Coach John Davis, I really have to say that this may be impossible, or the probability of this happening. , it’s really too low, so low that I think it’s impossible, so I think it’s better not to take it seriously.”

John Davis said: "Well, then I will simply arrange it and focus my offense and defense on the target.

The opponent's offensive arrow is their shooting guard Wu Liang. He is this year's rookie, Jerry Stackhouse. What do you think of handing him over to you? "

Jerry Stackhouse nodded with a smile, and then said: "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I can prevent him from scoring a single goal. This is a very simple thing, what do you think?" "

All the players laughed, it was so touching.

In the entire locker room, no one except Allen Iverson felt that Wu Liang could make a splash in the game.

John Davis continued: "In that case, let's talk about the next target, which is their Kevin Garnett. Although this person is a good rookie, he can average 15 points per game. More than points, but his offensive ability is not very good, at least compared to our Allen Iverson and Jerry Stackhouse, it is much inferior."

Jerry Stackhouse became even more excited after hearing what head coach John Davis said.

He felt as if he was about to go to heaven, he was really about to get over it.

As for other people, they are even more arrogant.

John Davis continued: "The opponent's defense is actually completely based on Kevin Garnett's inside barrier. I have to say that Kevin Garnett's defensive area is It’s very big, and he’s very young, and his steps are relatively flexible, so you still have to pay attention.”

Jerry Stackhouse obviously doesn't take Kevin Garnett seriously.

He's just a high school student, how outstanding can he be?

But since head coach John Davis had already said it, he still had to give him some face, and then said indifferently: "Okay, I understand."

Head coach John Davis said: "As for the others, I don't have anything to say. As long as everyone goes all out, I believe it will be very easy to win this game. Everyone still has Anything you want to add?”

"there is none left!"

"Today, let us kill Minnesota without leaving anything behind!" "No problem, our Philadelphia 76ers are about to have a 4-game winning streak."

"I don't know how long it has been, but we haven't had such a dream start!"

When everyone was about to finalize the matter, Allen Iverson, who had never spoken, finally spoke. He said lightly: "I have a little different opinions and ideas."

After all, Allen Iverson is this year's No. 1 pick, and in just a few games, his performance can be said to be quite outstanding. Whether it is in terms of points, assists, or steals, he is all on the ball. The best player on the team, so when Allen Iverson spoke, he still got everyone's attention.

This is strength, and even after entering the NBA, everyone recognizes it very much.

Jerry Stackhouse said: "Allen, if you have any ideas, you can talk about it."

Allen Iverson said: "I think you should know which university I come from."

Head coach John Davis said: "Of course I remember, you are from Georgetown University."

As of 2011, Georgetown University employed a total of 1291 full-time and 882 part-time faculty at its three campuses in Washington, D.C., as well as other faculty at its Qatar campus.

The faculty includes many outstanding scholars and well-known political and business leaders. The gender ratio is dominated by men, accounting for about two-thirds of the total number.

Politically, Georgetown faculty tend to support liberal candidates, and their giving tendencies are consistent with faculty at other U.S. universities. An above-average share of Georgetown faculty supported Obama in recent U.S. elections.

Of course, these are all things for later, but no matter from which aspect you look at it, it is enough to see the excellence of Georgetown University.

Moreover, the basketball culture at Georgetown University is also very strong, and many people are fans of it.

The head coach said: "Moreover, you led Georgetown University to the Big East Championship and the final championship. This is a very great honor. All of us will be proud of you."

Allen Iverson nodded, then showed a slightly melancholy expression on his face, and then he said slowly: "The truth is, although our Georgetown University won the final championship, One thing I have to say is that I am not leading this alone.

My partner and teammate is Wu Liang. "

"Wu Liang?"

When he heard the name, the head coach suddenly raised his voice, then began to look through the small book in his hand, and said: "Wu Liang? You are talking about the Minnesota Timberwolves we are about to play this time. Is this Wu Liang in the team?"

Allen Iverson was very speechless about head coach John Davis. As a head coach, the most basic job is to have a very basic understanding of the opponent's players, but he didn't even do this. , this seems a bit too amateurish.

He also knew that if he could do this, he should at least understand Wu Liang's performance in college, which was quite impressive.

At least you can take a look at Wu Liang's game video.

Even if he can't do this, then he should be able to take a look at Wu Liang's post-game data.

Wu Liang's average data per game is not bad. You can see it if you take a look. If you are not willing to do such a simple job, then just don't be a head coach.

Of course, these are just Allen Iverson's inner thoughts. He would not be stupid enough to say all these words.

After all, he has not yet established himself, and he will still have to work for the Philadelphia 76ers for a long time. He can't see you when you look up, but don't make the relationship too tense.

This situation is completely embarrassing for Allen Iverson.

Therefore, after Allen Iverson thought about it carefully, he then said: "Yes, Wu Liang is a comrade I have fought side by side with. It is not because of this that I want to deliberately elevate him here." He is not like this.

I just want to say that he is really different. He is indeed very strong. I really hope you can know this. He is really extraordinary. "

Jerry Stackhouse still didn't quite believe Allen Iverson's words, so he said nonchalantly: "Then tell me, what is different about him?"

Allen Iverson said: "First of all, his defense is very good. In all the games Georgetown University faces, Wu Liang has always been the shoulder man to defend the opponent. Yes, you must do it Don't look at me in such surprise, although my steal data may be better than his, but in terms of defense, Wu Liang's contribution to the team may be greater than mine."

The unruly Allen Iverson still has a high degree of recognition for Wu Liang.

Otherwise, he would never say this.

Both Jerry Stackhouse and head coach John Davis felt very surprised.

What's going on? Wu Liang's defense is so good that even Allen Iverson is impressed?

Jerry Stas curled his lips, then took the data of Wu Liang's recent games, and said: "From the data point of view, I can't tell how good it is."

In this era, there is no so-called high-level data.

Although many fans still don't recognize the so-called high-end data, it can still be somewhat useful in some aspects.

Allen Iverson said: "Actually, what I want to say is not just that. Wu Liang's offense is also very good. His mid-range jump shot is a killer move. It is often in the team's open space, or someone is in it." Under defensive circumstances, Wu Liang was still able to throw the ball, which no one could have expected."

Jerry Stackhouse said with a smile: "Mid-range shot? What, is Wu Liang's mid-range shot more accurate than Michael Jordan?"

Wu Liang frowned. He had already smelled a strange smell in Jerry Stackhouse's words, a smell that made people angry.
