Chapter 497: Away Battle Eagles! (1/3)

The next opponent is somewhat shadowy for the 76ers.

That is last season's Hawks, this team won the first place in the East in the regular season in the previous season!

Under Budenholzer, the Eagles have risen!

However, last season's results dropped a little quickly, but it was still difficult to beat them in the regular season.

The point is that the Eagles are doing a great job of running basketball efficiently on the court!

The 76ers actually won the first game of the regular season?!

It's not a big deal for any other team, but it's big news here in Philadelphia!

Sports headlines for a day...... Then there are the basketball headlines, and there are the headlines of the day.

It's about the Philadelphia 76ers' incredible win over the Chicago Bulls in Game 1!

No matter how you listen to it, it feels like the media is deliberately satirizing the 76ers, and there are praises in it, but most of them are indeed satirizing them.

Budenholzer: "We don't know anything, we're not sure we're going to win against the 76ers. Li Feng has not disappointed the team in the first three seasons. ”

In an interview, Atlanta Hawks coach Budenholzer only briefly commented on the team and Li Feng.

Then he refused all interviews with reporters.

All teams want to get a win and get off to a good start at the start of the season.

But if a team wins, there must be a team that loses.

Like them, the Eagles......

In contrast to the 76ers' sudden win, the Hawks unexpectedly lost to the Kings in the first game of the season.

Their second game was against the 76ers.

Howard's departure this season has left them very empty inside!

The lack of defensive strength under the basket and inaccurate shooting from the outside made Budenholzer toss and turn at night.

You can still find a way to solve a problem, but if the boat is leaking with four loopholes, it will be difficult to solve.

......

Li Feng was either training intensively in the team during this time, or conducting confrontation training in his own system!

This season he rightfully became the number one star of the Philadelphia 76ers!!

Naturally, the burden on his shoulders was heavier, and he had to coordinate many things.

In order to make your team's winning rate higher!

Although at the beginning, Li Feng was still in a wait-and-see state when he didn't understand the situation.

But now the 76ers' hardware and software are very strong!

Even this team has better bench depth than the Lakers!

Of course, it's compared to last season.

Therefore, if Li Feng wants to be worthy of the maximum salary contract offered to him by the team, he has to pay more.

At this time, Lin Xiao had already informed him to negotiate with the landlord, and the rent was also taken from Li Feng and handed over to the landlord.

But Li Feng still couldn't get by, although the key had already been taken by Lin Xiao.

He's going to play the Hawks and then go back to see his new home.

Li Feng: "Hey? Tomorrow's training, let's first study how to deal with the eagles. ”

Embiid: "Okay, just get there early?" ”

Li Feng: "Hmm"

Li Feng found that talking to Embiid was too pleasant~

This player has a good ball quotient and technique, and although the current Olajuwon II has a slightly rough technique, it is already quite good in the league!

......

The players rested in the hotel and went to the Atlanta Hawks' home arena for training in the morning.

The Hawks, for their side, began training behind closed doors after losing Game 1 to the Kings.

It can be seen that the team attaches great importance to the 76ers.

Coach Brown was very happy during this time, and he went to the arena from time to time to see his players.

I don't make contact with them, I just watch them train from a distance.

On this day's game, the Phillips Arena was full!

Last season, the Hawks were the strong team and the 76ers were the weak.

And this season seems to be about to change something.

It didn't take long for players from both sides to play, and the Eagles' starters today were Dedmon, Collins, Taurin, Schroder, and Kent.

At the end of the 76ers are Embiid, Saric, Kuzma, Li Feng and McConnell!

Brown was anxious in addition to excitement during this time......

The anxiety is whether their team's winning percentage can remain among the top teams in the East.

It's still unknown.

Simmons had a poor performance in the last game, and naturally he was not in the starting lineup in this game.

At the beginning of the game, Embiid took the lead in getting the basketball, and then Li Feng received his pass.

Li Feng is looking for Embiid mainly to talk about how they play high and low.

Now the Eagles are not as dangerous as last season.

They don't have the three-point touch of the Spurs, and they don't have a center, so they can only rely on the cooperation accumulated over two seasons to play against the 76ers.

And on their Philadelphia side, they need to grasp a tactic, that is, offensive efficiency!

As long as they keep scoring, the Eagles won't be able to take it!

After a long time, they don't need to be too anxious, and the opponent can't parry.

But is this possible?

The answer is yes.

As long as Li Feng and the others on the outside cooperate well, they don't need to shoot three points in total, they only need to score.

After the outside was blocked by the opponent, Li Feng or other outside players fed Embiid cakes!

At this time, Embiid the Great, who has begun to show dominance under the basket! When he scores under the basket, it's not a difficult thing for him.

McConnell is now in the game and knows one thing that matters.

That is to listen to Li Feng's arrangement! He didn't expect to be placed in the starting position so quickly this season!

The basketball came to him, looked at Li Feng's eyes, and then the basketball flew to Kuzma.

In full view of everyone, the pants jumped up and smashed the basket with three points after receiving the ball!

Look at him and really look like Tracy~

As soon as the match began, Kuzma was sweating a lot.

It is understandable that he was a little nervous, but it can also be said that he was very quick to get into the game.

Schroeder saw it and quickly got past Li Feng and then passed the ball to Kent under the defence of Kuzma and Saric .

Faced with the opponent's state of being too late to defend, Kent decisively jumped back with a three-pointer!

Budenholzer watched the game with an anxious face on the sidelines at this time, and sometimes he, who is almost 60, felt that in addition to his own tactical arrangements.

The rest, it depends on the will of God.

The team is currently lacking a number of key players, so it will not be easy for them to get back into form compared to last season.

Li Feng was holding the ball at this time, and some of the Eagles fans at the scene were cheering for Li Feng!

Because Li Feng at this time, compared with the previous three seasons, has completely changed.

He instructed McConnell not to get too far forward at this time, and Embiid immediately went around to Dedmon to prepare to catch the ball!

The Hawks didn't mean to pass the ball at all, but Embiid still complied.

Immediately rushed to the front, and successfully received Li Feng's pass after the successful card position!!

The attention of the Eagles' players is on Li Feng at this time, because the current Li Feng is a very threatening existence once he attacks!

But what they didn't expect was that the basketball passed so suddenly!

Embiid confronted Dedmon directly, and when the latter didn't react at all, he almost fell!

At this moment, Olajuwon II jumped up directly and scored with both hands!!

The scene immediately exclaimed! Fans didn't expect Embiid's explosiveness to be so strong!

Then Schroeder immediately went to the front, and his individual movement speed was still very fast!

But his three-pointer missed, and Kuzma decisively got the basketball.

The players who were in the backcourt and the Hawks were maneuvering, and unlike the last game against the Bulls, the opponents defended well in this game.

When Kuzma found out about this, he immediately passed the Tao Lin next to him, and then passed the ball directly to Li Feng.

The latter hit a three-point shot right away!

8:3! The 76ers suppressed the Hawks at the start of the away game, and Coach Budenholzer was about to ask for a timeout!

Budenholzer: "Why are you inferior to the opposing team in terms of ball handling?"

What's going on this season? Can't hit anything? ”

Coach Budenholzer is a little nostalgic for Teague in the past.

At that time, Schroeder was still a young player.

It also has something to do with the team management.

Seeing that his players did not speak, Budenholzer continued: "If you don't do it for a while, you will all come down!"

What else are you fighting? After a while, I think I'm going to let Li Feng go directly into the garbage time.

At the beginning of the regular season, we didn't have many wins in the early part of the season, and by the second half of the regular season, we would be very passive! ”

Speaking of which, Budenholzer took a deep breath, he regarded and demanded these players as stars!

Naturally, he is very strict with these players in normal times!

There's a reason why the team at the bottom of the Eastern Conference that year suddenly rose to the top of the Eastern Conference in terms of regular season win percentage one season!

Some of the players look at the nose and nose, and the nose looks at the heart, but they don't speak.

Yes, you look at me, I look at you.

They can also feel the mood of the manager.

Now I can only play seriously and strive for fewer mistakes.

But I don't know if coach Budenholzer has noticed that their team is getting harder and harder to play season by season......

Simmons was called over by Coach Brown and was very excited.

But in the end, he was not allowed to go up.

It's like a meeting here for the 76ers! Most of the assistant coaches and substitutes were standing on the sidelines.

They listened intently to Coach Brown's arrangement.

And Brown is talking to the players at this time is an arranged attitude, and Li Feng is a discussion tone!

Not as formal as Coach Wharton, who Coach Brown has made a few phone calls to current Lakers head coach Wharton.

Wharton said on the phone that Li Feng's adaptability in the game was very powerful.

And he also has a lot of experience and vision in terms of team tactics.

In fact, the outside world says that the player feels good, except that he feels that his skills and game experience are better than the average team.

Li Feng happens to be such a player, and like Kidd last season, Wharton also spoke to Brown about how they played last season.

Listening to Wharton, and what Wharton asked Kidd last season, Coach Brown benefited immensely.

So now he is paying more and more attention to Li Feng and being polite.

Now the team needs to be like the Bucks, Celtics and Hawks in previous years!

As long as they communicate more with the players, run in their tactics more, pay more attention to the game, and play a good score, they should be able to get at least the eighth place in the East.

The game is back and Schroeder and his teammates are getting a lot more serious.

What I just said to Brown is still to use players under the basket to make more mid-range jumpers and Embiid's basket bursts!

It's really not good, there are three of them on the outside, and they can all shoot three points quickly!

Brown didn't have much to say, and their coaching staff had mentioned that in a meeting.

Then do as Li Feng said!

What didn't pass at the coach's meeting, Brown got it right at this time!

The Eagles didn't know that their opponents would deal with them like this, but this was their weakness!

Even if you know, it will be difficult to parry the opponent's dense attack!

Tao Lin then got the basketball and passed it to Dedmon.

Then Collins received the ball and his jumper was interfered with by Saric!

Kuzma got the ball and immediately hit the ground and passed to Li Feng, McConnell received Li Feng's pass in the front court, started decisively, and then got up and hit a three-point shot!

Budenholzer sighed again, then turned back to sit down.

11:3! The 76ers are in a rage at this time! It's not at all like last season's scrapped team......

Immediately Kent carried the ball to the frontcourt, this time he did not choose to pass, and immediately used his speed to stagger the opponent here at McConnell!

Then hit a jumper and hit a long-range 2-pointer!

Soon basketball came to Kuzma! Saric and Embiid on the scene both felt that their teams were running much faster this season......

Li Feng can sometimes accommodate them, while Kuzma is like a rabbit on the court.

Not only do opponents sometimes fail to keep up with him, but even his teammates can't keep up.

Li Feng and Kuzma cooperated with each other, and the Eagles players on the floor looked at them as if they were big enemies.

In the end, when the four-man defense Li Feng and Kuzma, Embiid, who had just come from the halfcourt, went over to score with one hand after getting the ball!

13:5! Kuzma smiled and slapped Embiid the palm ~

It's a celebration. Embiid and players who are not strong in confrontation will retract their strength or simply put their hands in the air and not move when they high-five~

Then the Eagles were the opposite of their opponents, they slowed down and became much stronger in terms of coordination.

In the end, McConnell managed to shake off McConnell, and Kent passed the ball to Schroeder, who was already in the corner.

The latter jumps up and hits a three-point shot!

Li Feng asked his players to recover, but this time the Eagles couldn't trust the player in front of them.

In the end, Li Feng let the opponent foul under Schroeder's defense......

Li Feng, who was standing next to the free throw line, hit all 3 free throws!

16:8! Although the Eagles didn't start well today, the heat on the scene has not decreased.

Although Simmons still did not perform well during this time, after being reprimanded by Kobe Bryant on the phone, he began to train seriously!

Although Brown has to arrange playing time based on the performance of the players, he knows that neither the team management nor the fans, nor the coach and his teammates have given up on him!

Simmons is watching Kuzma's performance, and this year's rookie is doing better than him up front.

Brown: "Simmons, warm up. At the end of the quarter you go up"

Simmons: "Good coach! ”

Simmons, who had just put on his coat, immediately took off his coat again and began to warm up on the sidelines.
