"It's definitely a mistake for a team to pick us as an opponent. I, and Carmelo, will let them know what the price is for underestimating us." Before the start of the playoffs, in an interview show, Iverson said aggressively to the media.

It is understandable for the Spurs to take the initiative to choose opponents, but they would rather face the Nuggets with themselves and Anthony than the Los Angeles Lakers. This makes Iverson unbearable, although with the decline of physical functions, Iverson is He knew that he was no longer the lightning kid he used to be, but he still felt that what the Spurs did was the biggest contempt for him.

Could it be that I am not even half as good as Kobe? Iverson thought unwillingly. Leaving Philadelphia, where he stayed for ten years, once made Iverson feel the pain of confusion, grievance and betrayal. But his habitual unyieldingness to fate made him immediately summon up courage.

But he also knows that the Nuggets are not his own team, but Carmelo Anthony's team. Although he is now suspended, he has come here. If he wants to succeed, he must learn to coexist peacefully with another star player Iverson knows that many people have such doubts, thinking that they are used to controlling the ball alone and cannot coexist with other stars. Talent, as long as you think about it, there is nothing impossible.

But for the time being, before Anthony returns, I still need to carry the team alone for the time being. Iverson is just like what he did in the 76ers, using offense to lead the team forward, but in the more competitive Western Conference , This method is obviously not advisable. After the Nuggets' record rebounded in a short period of time, it settled down again.

After Anthony came back, the two of them barely found a way to get along after some running-in. This is also due to the fact that Anthony's character is not too strong, and Iverson also knows that he needs to restrain his strong style when he is here. Two talents can get along in a team.

However, the two have never been able to achieve the cooperation that the Nuggets management wants. The two simply share the ball on the court and cannot create better opportunities for each other. Before the two have established a corresponding cooperation , and cannot make the defender lose sight of the other.

But no matter what, two people have abilities and talents. Even if two people fight independently, although the threat brought by them cannot be underestimated. Fall out of the ranks of the playoffs.

However, in the last game of the regular season, the two people almost turned their noses. Before the game, the two of them were ready to fight for victory in this game, keep their sixth position, and regard this game as the first game of the playoffs. The game was coming, so Iverson also held a joint player meeting with Anthony. Who knew that when the game was about to start, he received news that all the main players of the Spurs would not play.

But the Nuggets can't deliberately lose because of this. The Spurs don't care, because they have already determined the third position in the West, and the Nuggets don't want to fall to the seventh position. Not so easy to deal with.

What's more, they want the Spurs to learn the hard lesson of choosing them in the playoffs, and make the Spurs regret for choosing them, so they bravely fought against the Spurs' substitutes. Victory, but this victory makes people feel very unfulfilled.

So they put all their anger and hatred on this game, and before the game, Iverson officially announced his declaration of war through the TV program, and this "Sports Event" program, the next day The Spurs players were invited to participate.

Their purpose is self-evident, they want to instigate hatred between the two teams, but the Spurs responded on behalf of the team, Duncan, after Duncan listened with a smile, his face was expressionless, as if this matter He responded as if he had nothing to do with the Spurs: "Is he talking about us? Did he get the wrong target? We didn't take the initiative to choose the opponent."

Duncan's words made the host burst into laughter, and finally the host stopped laughing, and continued: "I have to say, this is a very lame joke, but with your expression, it makes people feel ridiculous. "

"Really, I don't think so at all, what about you?" Duncan turned his head and asked his teammates. Of course, there were only three people participating in the program, one was Ginobili and the other was Stephen. The two shook their heads in unison. Duncan continued to turn his head with an innocent expression, staring at the host with two piercing eyes, waiting for the host to speak.

The host looked at Duncan very helplessly, Duncan has this ability, can attract all the topics to his face, let you only pay attention to the expression on his face, but cannot continue the topic, the host watched Ginobili and Stephen beside Duncan decided to start with Stephen.

"Mr. Stephen, can I ask you a question?" The host looked at Stephen as if he was a rookie who hadn't been involved in the matter deeply. He had never heard of this guy who often appeared in the media, so his ability to deal with the media must not be good. Strong, see if you can open a gap in his body.

"Okay, what's the question, ask?" Stephen responded very calmly. Although this program is broadcast live across the United States, Stephen has no pressure at all. As early as his college days, Stephen has learned how to face the media. .

"Excuse me, do you have a girlfriend?" The host felt a little uncomfortable looking at Stephen's attitude, and usually only veterans can do it so calmly. Could it be that he picked the wrong candidate, so he decided to change the topic, See if you can dispel the opponent's alertness and let him step into his own trap.

"Personal questions should not be answered, but for the sake of the first question, I can answer. I am currently single." Stephen replied politely, and the host immediately understood that this guy should deal with the media. His experience is definitely not bad. If I want to open a gap in him, it seems that I have found the wrong person.

"Okay, now let's turn the topic to basketball. Among the opponents you have faced, whose offense is more difficult for you to defend, or is more difficult to defend." The host decided to give up the previous temptation and go straight to the topic. go.

"There are many, like Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, McGrady, Dwyane Wade, Arenas, Steve Nash, Michael Reid, Chris Paul, Brandon Roy, Yao Ming, O'Neal."

"Why are there no names of Iverson and Anthony?" The host saw that Stephen had already mentioned the position of center forward, so he couldn't help interrupting Stephen, bringing the topic to today's purpose.

"Because I haven't counted, Allen Iverson, Carmelo Anthony, Ron Artest, Stephen Jackson, and many more, I won't waste the time of the show here, by the way, there will be more One more thing to add, the above rankings are in no particular order.”

The host almost fainted immediately. This is not a waste of program time, but what is it? It is impossible to count the players in the entire league in detail, and they are ranked in no particular order. Is this necessary? Would anyone be offended that he was ranked first or last?

Stephen sat there, showing that I knew what you wanted me to say, but I just didn't say it. This disappointed the show host. How can I let them take up Iverson's challenge?He was so busy thinking about this issue that the show was on hold, and it was only when the backstage director reminded him that he recovered.

"The playoffs are about to start. What do you think about your next game? You were the champions of last season and the champions of last season. For you, if you also If you win the championship, it means that you have established a dynasty."

"We will try our best to win every game and go straight to the end. We don't need to deliberately target any team or anyone. We have only one goal, and that is victory." Stephen didn't wait for Duncan to answer , Immediately expressed his own thoughts, and Stephen, who was ready to leave the team, had long ago decided to take the championship as a gift to the team and these teammates, so he was not afraid of revealing his purpose, as for some He didn't even bother to respond to the challenges of others. What was there to care about in a game? What he wanted was to keep winning.
