is also a change of direction in front of the body to pull the ball, and Iverson's change of direction is completely different from that of other defenders.

One is speed! Iverson's speed at his peak ranks in the top three in league history! Pure acceleration alone can create offensive space that no other player can create.

The other is ball sense, which is a talent that cannot be ignored for defenders. There are players who are born with the ball, like Iverson, like Irving, like Isaiah Thomas. The man and the ball are one, and when they control the ball, they will not affect their speed and movement at all, which is slightly inferior to even Kobe Bryant, which is a gift from God.

The last point is that Iverson will pay attention to his non-point player's movements when changing direction in front of his body, and most guards tend to be non-point players who are just using to protect the ball when changing direction, and the same is true for Kobe. They need to make sure that even if they fail to break through, at least they can't make mistakes.

The AI, on the other hand, likes to make the non-ball handler and the ball handler dance at the same time, such as pulling the ball from right to left. Both hands will first swing to the right, which is very deceptive, and then change direction to the left at the same time. Only Iverson, who is bold enough to make a mistake that he doesn't worry about at all, would dare to do this, and such a change of direction is very risky, but Iverson's excellent ball sense and quick movement make it difficult to catch this loophole.

Although the AI's speed has not reached its peak so far, his ball sense and direction change skills are very well-established. This is also the reason why he faces the league's top backcourt defense, and the Lakers and Bulls can still cut 20+30+.

Compared with the game in Philadelphia in November, Bryant clearly felt that Iverson was more decisive and daring to shoot. This is an obvious characteristic of finding his way of basketball, when he fully establishes his way of basketball, and his physical fitness reaches the peak, a superstar will rise, and Allen Iverson should be the fastest player to find his way of basketball in recent years, except for Kobe. Even Penny and Hill struggled for a long time at the beginning of their careers to establish the path they wanted to take.

And the AI has only played about 20 games.

The basketball way of an outside superstar can be roughly divided into two kinds, one is Iverson's complete way of killing, no matter what his teammates are, what his tactics are, he is the last enemy. One of the characteristics of such superstars is that they have an extremely high ceiling and a very low lower limit. If you feel good, you can be invincible, but if you are in a slump, it hurts the team.

The other is the way of a king like Magic Johnson, who can take the lead and help his teammates play better. Such stars are more in line with the public's aesthetic, but due to accommodating their teammates, their own abilities may not be developed to the fullest. For scoring explosiveness, the takeover of key balls will be weaker than the previous type of player, but the lower limit of leading the team will be very high, no matter what teammates do, the team's record will often be at the top of the league, but in the playoffs, it is often not enough to meet tough battles.

That's why more people win championships.

Is there a combination of the two? Yes! Especially the all-round position of small forward is the most likely to appear!

Larry Bird averaged 28.7 points, 10.5 rebounds, 7.6 assists and 2.0 steals per game in his peak season! He's the player who does the way of kings and the way of killing at the same time, and he has the best of both worlds.

But it's not that the combination is good, even if he has the way of two superstars, he still has a good relationship with the magician. The Magician has gone to the pinnacle of the Union's history in the Way of Kings. And Bird's way of killing was not as good as Jordan and Wilkins at that time, and the way of kings was not as good as that of magic. It's hard to say whether Bird would have achieved more if he had focused on one path, or if his physical gifts were destined to allow him to take one path to the extreme, so he was forced to choose to double open!

The all-time triple-double king of American professional basketball is also a player who has taken two paths, but although he has no data during his time as a ball bully, he did not win the championship. It's just that in the later part of his career, he gave up the way of killing and used the way of the king to assist Tiangou Jabbar to win the championship.

There is also a future emperor, LeBron James, who is also a double-open player and has great ambitions. In his previous life, his goal was always to surpass Jordan, but he couldn't do it alone. It is impossible for the way of killing to surpass Jordan, and the way of the king cannot surpass the magician, so he also wants to combine the two paths to get out of his own way.

Jordan also tried the combination in the '88-89 season, and it worked very well, scoring 32.5 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists and 2.9 steals with a 53.8% shooting rate that season. However, the team's record is mediocre, with 47 wins and 35 losses, ranking 6th in the East. Then Phil Jackson joined the team, and Jordan took the killing path to the dark.

Therefore, there is no good or bad way of basketball, and the farther you go, the higher your realm. But the higher the realm, the higher the honor, it ultimately depends on the number of champions and FMVPs.

The more championships you have, the more you are, the right ones. This is something that everyone agrees with. Even if you shoot an average of 20 three-pointers per game, as long as you can win a championship, the league will look at you.

Kobe Bryant has almost come to the end of the killing road in his last life, maybe only Michael Jordan has gone farther than him, or Kobe Bryant's basketball realm is higher, but Jordan has won more honors with his better physical talent.

In terms of scoring explosiveness and key balls alone, Kobe Bryant is worthy of anyone in the league. He has completely inherited the basketball realm in this life, and if he wants to recover the level of the previous life, he just needs to wait patiently for his physical fitness to come up.

But want to go beyond ...... There are two ways, one way is to carry out the role of cancer and killer to the end. The other path is to try to combine the two, as Jordan did. Jordan failed, Oscar Roberts failed, Bird and James were halfway there.

Kobe Bryant is ready to give both methods a try, anyway, his career is still long.

Why not be young and frivolous? Striving for the first place in history?

This is also the reason why Kobe Bryant has put a lot of effort into organization and tandem, one is that no one in the Lakers can do this, and the other is that Kobe Bryant wants to make a breakthrough from this aspect. Imagine that while Kobe Bryant maintains his original offensive ability, he also brings the way of the king to the superstar level. At that time, even if the physical fitness is not at the peak, plus O'Neal, an interior superstar, there is also hope to pull the peak Bulls off the horse.

Perhaps this is the only way to grow long enough to beat the basketball god Michael Jordan in the short term.
