Compared to Silver Fox's calmness, 76ers coach Larry Brown was shocked!

Fortunately, there was no fight.

After breathing a sigh of relief, looking at his lineup, Larry Brown was very confident.

With 24 wins and 8 losses, he felt that he was so powerful.

The 76ers were still the team that won the No. 1 pick last season, the third from the bottom in the league. Now, it is already the top five in the league!

Moreover, the distance between the three-point line in the top arc area was extended, and Larry Brown came to Los Angeles and wanted to celebrate with a slid kneel on the beach in Los Angeles!

Iverson certainly won’t even think about throwing three points now!

The 76ers are currently on their 4th consecutive trip to California. The day before yesterday, on the 2nd, they played against the Clippers. Larry Brown felt so happy. The 76ers only made 4 three-pointers in the game, the lowest since the start of this season.

He started coaching the NBA in his 30s. When he first started coaching, the NBA had no three-point line. In the first 10 years of the three-point line introduction, those who could make 100 three-pointers in a single season were all god pitchers, and the three-pointer kings were there.

Later, the player who averaged two three-pointers per game was still called a god pitcher.

But in the past two years, three-pointers averaged 3+ three-pointers per game have appeared.

This is difficult for Larry Brown, who is in his 50s, to accept that he is unwilling and does not know how to make adjustments.

Now, time comes to operate!

The day before yesterday, he scored 85-69 with the Clippers, and Larry Brown felt that his era is coming!

At the end of the pre-match event, the referee signaled the two teams to play and the game was about to begin.

The referee is on high alert, and there is something to do on both sides. Be careful of the call tonight.

I'm really afraid of anything...

What are you doing with the Lakers?

The referee saw a camera move outside the home team player's channel, and Zhang Hao ran over.

Soon, the lights at the scene dimmed, Zhang Hao's face appeared on the big screen, and bursting cheers sounded.

Duncan looked at Zhang Hao's poker face on the big screen and opened his mouth, and he had a bad premonition...

"ah……"

Zhang Hao's roar resounded throughout the audience!

In fact, he didn't use too much sound, but he made such a loud sound and felt endless.

Duncan instantly felt unhappy and he yelled at me again! No, he seemed to be yelling at our entire team, so that wouldn't be yelling at me...

After a roar, the camera pulled away and the lights came on, and the players of both teams felt a sense of enthusiasm.

"Wolf Roar (Silver) triggered, the players participating in this game are very motivated, and they are invincible and different from me..."

Let’s talk about it first, complete the advanced usage conditions of Garnett Card, and then see if you want to use it later.

The Wolf Shark version of the human head horse is also super powerful. The Jordan card is too life-consuming, and the Garnett card is probably enough.

Zhang Hao walked onto the stadium and the system prompted him.

"Special signing player Zhang Hao encountered the challenge of 183 B members, and the mission: 183 enemy triggered."

"Enemy of 183:

Goal 1: Zhang Hao must complete at least once cross-step change direction and score in each quarter in the game against the 76ers.

Goal 2: Zhang Hao needs to face Iverson to complete a cross-step change of direction and score.

Goal 3: Zhang Hao needs to help the Lakers score a hundred points in the game against the 76ers.

Target 4: Zhang Hao needs to help the Lakers defeat the 76ers.

Reward: Designated Medal Cross-step King Silver Level Up Card.”

This is the second time this mission has been triggered. The last time it was last season when the league's first point guard Tim Hardaway triggered the mission, but it failed.

Put away distracting thoughts and concentrate, and the game is about to begin.

The Lakers sent a combination of Kenny Anderson, Doug Christie, Rick Fox, Zhang Hao and O'Neal.

The 76ers sent Iverson, Jim Jackson, George Lynch, Duncan and Campbell.

The game begins at 7 pm.

Duncan beat O'Neal to win the jump ball, and the 76ers attacked first!

The Lakers lost the opportunity to start the fast break. O'Neal quickly retreated and failed to play for several games, and was a little unfamiliar with jumping.

Iverson received the ball and advanced quickly, Duncan and George Lynch were on the wings.

Zhang Hao went to block Duncan, and O'Neal retreated to the basket and George Lynch didn't dare to go in.

After the last time the 76ers played against the Lakers, they followed the Lakers' fast break and took on most teams. They were not as good as the genuine team.

The fast break was not completed, Iverson was not in a hurry. After his teammates got the position, he came outside the three-point line... Seeing Doug Christie take a big step back to defend and let go directly!

This is a good way to prevent breakthroughs, but it is effective against ordinary players who break through.

Iverson directly accelerated the breakthrough!

With such a large space, Iverson has enough distance to increase the speed as fast as possible. Facing Doug Christie's horizontal defense, Iverson changed direction very quickly, throwing Doug Christie behind him, and came to the top corner of the left side of the free throw line, and rushed to the mid-range shot... hit!

Duncan played an important role in this attack. His movement was parallel to Iverson's breakthrough direction when he changed direction. He walked from the left side of the three-second zone to the middle of the three-second zone to move to the right. Iverson had a perfect oblique pass angle. As long as Zhang Hao went to make up for defense, Iverson could pass the ball easily.

This is the same as Kenny Anderson's single breakthrough can always avoid the opponent's power forwards' assisting defense.

Zhang Hao has strong abilities in this area, and Duncan is not bad either!

When the Lakers attacked, Kenny Anderson advanced to the frontcourt, and Iverson was different. He still pressed on to defend.

This is very smart. For their breakthrough ability at this level and such breakthrough speed, it will be a big step. Unless there is movement ability + flexibility + body shape like Zhang Hao and Garnett, it will be a waste of time.

Iverson broke through just now, and Rick Fox pulled in from the left side to make up for defense. As for moving ahead, Iverson broke through to the right just now...

He didn't come by himself like Iverson. Kenny Anderson hangs the ball to O'Neal. O'Neal gets the ball and makes a single shot. Turns around, Duncan hits it up, O'Neal raises the ball, finds his teammate, and passes the ball to the top of the arc.

Rick Fox was emptied in the top arc area!

The 76ers' defense was all below the 45-degree angle on both sides. Rick Fox didn't dare to shoot after receiving the ball!

Zhang Hao pulled out of the inside, Rick Fox quickly passed by, George Lynch followed closely, Duncan also expanded to the free throw line after O'Neal passed the ball, looking like he was defending Rick Fox, but in fact he was defending Zhang Hao from breaking through.

Rick Fox was very aware. After passing the ball, he cut in the middle to block Duncan from snatching it out to make up for defense. Zhang Hao received the ball and pulled it horizontally to the right, pushing and shooting a three-pointer...

If it was the original three-point line, you would have made such a move, but unfortunately, the direction was very positive, but the force was a little stronger, and it hit the inside of the basket and bounced out.

Duncan chose to withdraw when Zhang Hao pulled over and Rick Fox cut in the middle. Campbell stuck O'Neal and Duncan took the defensive rebound.

O'Neal and Rick Fox led the way to retreat quickly, and the Lakers did not give Duncan and Iverson a chance to counterattack.

In the first leg, Lakers players already learned how strong Larry Brown’s defensive adjustment was!

The Sixers' defense has made good use of today's three-point line specifications.

Soon, the Lakers were at a disadvantage at the beginning. After playing for more than 3 minutes, the Lakers were 5 points behind 4-9, and the Silver Fox called a timeout.

O'Neal made a tip-in, Zhang Hao made a bottom-line catch and strong shot. The Lakers scored two goals in five attacks, with a 40% shooting percentage... It was very bad.

On the other hand, Iverson started very hard on the 76ers, and Larry Brown did not have much offensive coaching ability, but as long as Iverson didn't throw three points, he could play very freely.

The 76ers started with 6 offensive rounds and made 3 of 5 shots in 5 shots. One of them was Duncan's 2+1 extra free throws against Rick Fox. The other one did not successfully make the move Iverson broke into the inside and caused O'Neal to make up for the defense and fouls.

The Lakers are not in a hurry to get 5 points behind in the beginning. Iverson's opening performance of 2 of 3 shots and 2 free throws is unlikely to continue.

In the past few minutes, I mainly tested the 76ers' defense and experimental adjustment tactics. After getting the desired information, the Silver Fox began to rotate.

After the timeout, the Lakers sent a combination of Kenny Anderson, Doug Christie, Zhang Hao, Jason Williams and O'Neal.

Before going on the court, Zhang Hao patted Ben Wallace's back: "Look at how Jason plays."

Ben Wallace immediately looked at Jason Williams intently when he heard the order.

“…”

Zhang Hao was speechless for a moment, forget it, just walk onto the stadium.

There are no substitutions on the 76ers, and the lineup continues to play.

Lakers offense.

Kenny Anderson defended the ball against Iverson's rushing defense. The 76ers' defense was very low-key and defended very well against the pitchers on both wings. After shrinking and clamping, they would release the empty top arc or even the online area to limit the effect of the support.

After his teammates got the right position, Kenny Anderson began to break through, entered the three-point line and stopped suddenly, pulling horizontally and changing direction.

Iverson's defensive enthusiasm is absolutely top-notch, and his awareness is actually good. He kept up. Kenny Anderson stopped urgently again. This time Iverson was deceived. Kenny Anderson got up immediately after the emergency stop, went to the left side of the free throw line, and made a mid-shot shot... hit!

At the advantage point, one single to stop bleeding first.

6 to 9, the score difference narrowed to 3 points.

This ball just stabilizes the situation. Kenny Anderson's continuous emergency stops and quick starts and stops are not small. Obviously, this is Larry Brown's defensive strategy against Iverson's defense and using Iverson's physical strength to consume the opponent!

When the 76ers attacked, Iverson started to feel bad after halfway through the push. Fortunately, he had a good helper and hanged the ball to Duncan.

Duncan received the ball on the right side of the three-second zone to prepare for a single shot Jason Williams, and Zhang Hao immediately attacked Duncan!
