Chapter 49: Winning streak
114-101, the 76ers beat their opponents again.
In less than a week, two games, two big wins, and the change of the 76ers, it made fans feel that happiness came too suddenly, and more importantly, just after the game with the Bulls, there were reports that declared.
Allen Iverson has withdrawn his trade request and has decided to continue fighting in Philadelphia.
This is undoubtedly a reassurance to fans and the team, Allen is the soul of Philadelphia, ten years of ups and downs, Philadelphia can't imagine what the 76ers would be like without Allen Iverson.
According to the Chicago Tribune, Philadelphia are tough opponents, and this season, they are the only team that can still win after trailing the Bulls by more than 10 points at halftime, showing tenacity and tenacity.
The "Metropolis Daily" reporter named Wang Tomorrow, the appointment of the Chinese coach has changed the traditional offensive style of the 76ers, and the 76ers' offensive efficiency in the past two games has taken on a new look, and it seems that they have become one of the most offensive teams in December this season.
The name of 76ers coach Wang Mingming gradually resounded in the league, and everyone knew that the 76ers took the risk of changing the coach, but after the change of coach, it had a benign effect.
Meanwhile, the 76ers, who have five wins, continue to move up one spot in the East, finishing 14th in the East.
However, some people feel that Wang will not be able to continue to lead the 76ers to victory tomorrow, and the 76ers will play six games in the next 10 days, including two back-to-backs, one on Friday and Saturday this week and Friday and Saturday next week.
It's a devil's race.
After returning to Philadelphia, Wang will hold a coaching staff meeting tomorrow to discuss the upcoming schedule.
Randy Ayes sent the list of teams to each coach.
The Wizards and Magic went back-to-back, with one day off against the Trail Blazers, one day off against the Celtics, and then back-to-back against the Mavericks and Spurs, respectively.
"We should win at least three of the six games."
Wang set the minimum goal tomorrow, "Except for the last two games of the Spurs and Mavericks, the remaining 4 games should have been won, considering the back-to-back battles, the difficulty of beating the Magic away is slightly higher, but winning 3 games should be the minimum requirement." ”
As soon as Wang opened his mouth tomorrow, he was frightened by this helper, in such a dense schedule, it is definitely not easy to win half of the competition.
"The day after tomorrow is the home game against the Wizards and then back-to-back games against the Magic, let's analyze the situation of these two teams first!"
Wang Ming knocked on the table and commanded.
The crowd was in unison, and Randy Ayes came up with some ideas for playing against the Wizards and Magic.
Jim Lenham and Moses Malone also offered their own advice.
......
After becoming the coach, Wang Mingming's upgrade speed suddenly accelerated a few points, and after defeating the Bulls in the second game, he successfully rose to level 27, and he was getting closer and closer to level 30.
Originally, Iverson suffered an injury during this period, so general manager Billy King took advantage of Iverson's injury to play on the topic, and before Christmas, he traded Iverson to the Nuggets, and personally pushed down the 76ers to start rebuilding.
But now that Wang is in charge tomorrow, he has reduced Iverson's playing time, and Iverson has not suffered any injuries and is still alive on the field.
In the match with Arenas, against Soar Washington Sanying "Arenas + Caron Butler + Antoine + Jamison".
The 76ers and Wizards struggled to tie in 48 minutes of the regular season.
In overtime, Arenas left the court with 6 fouls, which became the last straw for the Wizards to be crushed, and the 76ers seized this outside hole to attack, and finally defeated the incoming Wizards 104-102.
The 76ers won their first straight win of the season, and after the change of coach that everyone couldn't understand, they came back to a wave of three consecutive wins.
Wang Mingming has been coaching so far, and he has not tasted defeat.
"Who can defeat Wang Mingming?" This has become a topic of scramble in the media.
Wang Mingming is too fierce, especially the identity of the Chinese coach, which is even more eye-catching, the belittlement in front of the media, and then Wang Mingming's strong rebound, has formed such a consensus that he must kill his majesty.
Iverson is very satisfied with Wang Mingming's coaching, not only the three-point shooting strategy, but also Wang Mingming's improvement of the original blocking and pick-and-roll offense.
Originally, Iverson's blocking and dismantling method in the elbow area was relatively simple, although the blocking and dismantling effect with the big center was very good, but the mid-distance opportunities formed were not enough for Iverson to directly decide the outcome of a game. So Wang Mingming arranged new tactics such as high-post blocking and dismantling, forward cover, etc., to enrich the way of blocking and dismantling offense.
Especially with Harrington's pick-and-roll, once a high-quality cover is formed, it will be difficult for opponents to defend.
After the 76ers' winning streak, the fan support rate has skyrocketed, and the attendance rate of the game with the Wizards has also increased a lot.
What they didn't know was that Billy King was actually ready for Wang to lead the team until the end of the season tomorrow.
In back-to-back games against Orlando, the 76ers suffered a serious physical crisis, and in the second high-intensity game within 24 hours, the main players were obviously weak, sluggish, and mentally exhausted.
Wang will increase the playing time of the rotation players tomorrow, compressing the playing time of Iverson and other main players to less than 30 minutes.
The Magic led all the way to the end, with Grant Hill and Howard combining for 53 points to beat the 76ers.
The 3-game winning streak came to an abrupt end, and Wang Mingming also suffered the first defeat in his life as the media wished.
After a day of rest, the fatigue of the players' condition finally dissipated, and the 76ers faced the challenge of the Western Trail Blazers on Monday.
The Trail Blazers are a newcomer to the league, and this time they came from afar, and it was an Eastern Conference road trip.
In the 24 hours before the game against the 76ers, the Trail Blazers had just completed a hard-fought battle with the Raptors, 98-83, and beat the Raptors on the road.
So even if they are fighting back-to-back, the main force of the Trailblazers retains a lot of physical strength.
Zach Randolph opted to return to the bench in this game against the 76ers, squeezing LaMarcus Aldridge, who had just tasted the sweetness of the start, back to the bench.
The 76ers' players were not in good shape, and they were collectively inaccurate outside the three-point line, but fortunately, in rebounding, Dyrem Porter, Iguodala and others were very active.
In addition, Zack couldn't prevent it, and in the second half, the 76ers suddenly felt on the outside, and a wave of 12-3 small high court opened up the difference, which also laid the general tone for the 76ers to win the game 95-90.
In their final home game, the 76ers won 101-89 against the Celtics.
So far, in the six games coached by Wang Mingming, five victories have been achieved.
The 76ers are 8-12 and in 12th place in the East, ahead of the Celtics, Knicks, Bucks and Hawks.
