Chapter 419 Defending Allen Iverson, the price you have to pay!
Yes, what Cole said is the truth. If you want to completely defend against the 76ers lineup, the Cavaliers need at least 8 players!
But this is obviously unrealistic. Mike Brown had to replace Wang Zhizhi, who had made many achievements on the offensive end, but was single-pointed on the defensive end, and replaced him with the big Z Zajunas Ilgauskas. Against Yao Ming!
As a result, outside troops were deployed to encircle and suppress Iverson!
"It's not to prevent him from scoring, but try to keep him away from the basket. To put it bluntly, no matter how powerful Iverson is, he is only a small man. As long as the blockade is tight enough, it is impossible for him to rush in!"
"The current Iverson is not the Iverson in full form in the past few years. You can see that his first step is much slower than last year. Therefore, Damon Jones, you can't let him break through so easily. , do you really think you are a wooden pile? The team gives you so much money every year, not for you to play a fool! Use your body and give me strength!"
Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown entrusted everything in detail on the sidelines.
When the Cavaliers returned to the court again, the defensive level against Iverson was indeed raised several levels in a row!
If Iverson wants to get inside easily, he must peel off at least three layers of skin first!
However, if the offense is given up because of difficulties, then Iverson will no longer be Iverson!
Facing Damon Jones who is more serious about defending, Allen Iverson still hasn't seen any change in his expression!
Iverson first used the change of direction in front of his body to obtain a breakthrough path for a forward thrust, but this was still not enough to completely throw Damon Jones away!
Although Damon Jones is not very fast, he still has an advantage over Iverson in terms of size!
Damon Jones' athletic talent is not good, but his physical condition and experience can make up for one or two. Damon Jones quickly followed up and intercepted Iverson again!
At this time, Iverson has broken through to the right side of the three-second zone!
Just about to make an emergency stop, Damon Jones' men successfully intercepted again!
"This is a bit annoying!"
Iverson frowned slightly, and gave up the direct shot. Instead, he predicted Damon Jones' next defensive strategy. He turned sideways to the right, dribbled the ball with his right hand, and made a sudden move towards Damon Jones with his left side. Lean on!
Damon Jones pushed forward subconsciously!
Iverson took advantage of the situation, changed hands to take the ball, turned around, and once again found a small active confrontation with Damon Jones!
In this round, Damon Jones' defense was full of tenacity. After being knocked back half a step, he immediately continued to press up, moved half a step to the other side, and blocked Iverson's turnaround shot!
But as soon as Damon Jones' foot moved half a step, he realized that he had been fooled!
Iverson seemed to be turning in the opposite direction, but it was actually a false move. Iverson didn't really complete the turn, but retracted his feet, turned around with his left foot to face the basket, and shot calmly!
"Shh!"
Hit it!
Damon Jones gasped heavily, with a look of despair on his face!
Iverson ran back slowly, and gently praised Damon Jones: "Good defense! Please keep working hard!"
Damon Jones received the serve from the sideline and slowly dribbled the ball across the half court, but at this time his mind was full of Iverson's goal!
I didn't seriously defend Iverson before, I just thought about how to avoid embarrassment. Although it already means admitting that I am not Iverson's opponent at all, it is nothing to be ashamed of. Ivers who has been played by Iverson There are at least hundreds of Sen, no one will care about such a small role as him!
But when Damon Jones really wanted to try his best to defend Iverson, the result was even more desperate: the gap he thought was much larger than the real gap!
And this kind of Iverson, in the eyes of the coach, is much worse than when he was at his peak!
"Then what am I?"
Damon Jones began to doubt life!
It is of course a good thing to reflect on yourself, but the premise is that this cannot be on a critical arena!
No one will feel any pity for you because of this, they will just take advantage of your illness and kill you!
A shadow across the field!
Han Mo has transferred the ball from Damon Jones' hands to his own!
Go straight to the frame!
And LeBron James will naturally not tolerate Han Mo's wildness!
Form a duo with Larry Hughes!
Two giants jumped up under the basket at the same time!
Blocking the basket is called a dry and quiet!
And Han Mo saw that the road ahead was completely blocked!
Suddenly raised the basketball high in the air!
Pick up!
LeBron James frowned!
The ball turned out not to be forward, but backward!
Pass the ball behind your head!
Allen Iverson, who was hiding behind Han Mo, waited for James and Larry Hughes to fall at the same time, so he made a calm move!
"Shh!"
Hollow into the net again!
LeBron James was so angry: "You even learned my pass!"
James directly deprived Damon Jones of possession of the ball and advanced with the ball himself. Every next attack will be a goal that may determine the outcome of the game!
James must firmly control it in his own hands, even if it is a pass, the assist must be his own!
In the process of advancing, James has already written off Damon Jones from the corner of his eye and has already settled outside the three-point line!
So when James suddenly rushed to squeeze Han Mo away, he then swung the ball diagonally!
The ball went straight into the hands of Damon Jones!
But Han Mo turned out to be like a drunken fist. It seemed that his body was squeezed away by Han Mo, but in fact, the direction he leaned was just at the level of James' passing!
Han Mo took advantage of the situation and hooked his hand back!
The ball came to Han Mo's arms!
How can James bear this?
James is full of blood, push forward!
James scored another foul, the fifth foul!
The 76ers have the ball!
Iverson is still facing Damon Jones!
Iverson first made another signature-style substantial frontal change that was almost exactly the same as the previous round!
All of a sudden, Damon Jones, who was approaching, was thrown to one side!
But in this round, Jones did not give up easily, but chose to continue to make up!
And Iverson's breakthrough was not really completed, but followed by another reverse crossover!
The knee twisted again, which did not conform to the physiological law, and then it suddenly broke out again!
Damon Jones' brain kept up with Iverson's changes, but his body didn't listen!
Just listen to the crisp sound of "click"!
Damon Jones suffered ankle pain and fell to the ground!
"It hurts! It hurts!"
Damon Jones clutches his ankle in pain!
The team doctor of the Cavaliers rushed to the court to deal with it as soon as possible!
Damon Jones, who is not a tough guy, shed tears of regret: "Is this the price of defending Iverson?"
