Chapter 383: Iverson's Redemption (Part I) (4/4!) )
Not only Tang Tian saw it, but the other players of the Cavaliers also saw it, and they were a little unhappy.
Paul walked straight to the sidelines and shouted at the fans to take down the signs.
Maybe they didn't expect Paul to be so direct, and those fans were stunned for a while before they began to fight back with spoken language, probably to tell Paul not to be nosy.
These words were heard by the other Cavaliers members, Artest, Wallace, Barnes, Beverley, these ruthless corners, directly sprayed, and even Artest waved his fist to rush over, and those people put away the sign in conviction.
Tang Tian originally wanted Casey to go to the technical desk to communicate, but when he saw this situation, he immediately laughed.
He suddenly found that in addition to being strong, the team he formed seemed to be the best in the league in terms of fighting?
After a brief opening ceremony, the starting line-ups of both sides were introduced.
There are no starting changes on either side, the Cavaliers don't need to adjust, the 76ers have no one to adjust, and no matter how stupid Scott is, he won't replace Hawes with Tony Barty, Sangeira and the like.
Amid the cheers of the Philadelphia fans, the game between the two sides quickly began.
Iguodala, Holiday and Meeks played at home, fighting fiercer and harder than the previous two, and Brand is also old and strong.
At the end of the first quarter, they managed to keep the margin within 20 points and trailed the Cavaliers by 18 points at 16-34.
The mood of the fans at the stadium was a little weaker after the end of the first quarter.
It's all fought so hard, and the score difference is still so big.
In the second quarter, both sides entered the bench lineup one after another.
Tang Tian replaced Yao Ming and Paul, who played a lot in the first quarter, and let James lead the team alone, replacing Beverley, Stephenson, Artest and Brown.
For the 76ers, Iguodala stayed on the court and was replaced with Barty, Speights, Thaddeus Young and Louis Williams.
Williams dribbled past half court and handed the ball to Iguodala.
Speights and Barty's block, Iguodala handed the ball over as soon as possible.
Barty was big and completely blocked Artest, and Speights received the ball and hit it from mid-range.
The Cavaliers attacked, James burst to Stephenson, and Stephenson was forced by Iguodala to cut the ball away.
Williams went down on a fast break and scored a low-handed layup on a pass from Iguodala.
Iguodala stepped up at this point, and the 76ers went on a wave of offense.
James fouled Thaddeus Young on the back of the court and made both free throws to stop the bleeding.
But Williams teases Stephenson to also make a low-handed layup with a color.
James burst to Artest, who gave Stephenson an open three-pointer and didn't score.
The 76ers played the fast break, and Williams' throw went back in.
With a 6-2 offensive run, the 76ers closed the margin to 14 points.
Tang Tian stretched out his hand and called a timeout.
In this section, Stephenson played a little badly.
But it's not too surprising.
First-year students play this kind of away game, and the opponent is Iguodala again.
"Aaron, you're ready to play."
Before the players walked to the bench, Tang Tian turned around and called Iverson up.
Although it is still a lot ahead, it can't let the 76ers build up the momentum, and the veteran is the most suitable choice at this time.
Iverson didn't play the first two games, and when he heard Tang Tian's shout, he thought he had heard it wrong at first, but when he saw Tang Tian pointing at him, he stood up and quickly peeled off his training clothes.
His face was excited, like he was back in his rookie season.
"Pay attention to Iguodala's passing, try not to play one-on-one when attacking, and play with teammates." Tang Tian specially admonished.
Iverson listened intently, then nodded.
In less than half a season with the Cavaliers, he has changed a lot.
After the timeout, the Cavaliers made substitutions, with Iverson and Frye coming on for Stephenson and Brown.
When the audience saw this scene, they immediately burst into boos.
Some felt that Iverson had given up his personality and gone to the Cavaliers to hug his thighs and felt disgraced for him, while others felt that the team had been forced to cut Iverson and waste a lot of salary space.
The fans who cheered Iverson's return to Philadelphia the most two summers ago also booed him the most.
That's what people are.
Iverson took a deep breath and stepped onto the court.
The Cavaliers' offense, James' playmaking at the top of the circle, and Frye's pick-and-roll went straight to the basket.
The 76ers shrank defensively, and Iverson cleverly went around the baseline and got an open opportunity in the bottom corner.
James split the ball, and Iverson took the ball and made a three-point shot.
"Bang!"
The shot was a little shorter, the ball went wide of the basket, and the rebound was picked up by Barty.
The boos were even worse.
It was as if Iverson had chosen to leave Philadelphia instead of being laid off.
With the 76ers possessing the ball, Andre Iguodala continues to organize at the top of the circle.
Casey shouted from the sidelines at this time, and the Cavaliers' players on the court significantly increased their defensive intensity.
Williams and Thaddeus Young's three-point runs and open cuts didn't get good catches.
Seeing that the attack was halfway through, Iguodala beckoned Speights to play a pick-and-roll.
One block, one dismantle, and after dismantling, Iguodala accelerated to break through.
"Smack!"
But just as he accelerated, he felt a lightness in his hand.
Looking back, the ball had already been cut off by Iverson.
Big Brother knows his attacking habits very well.
This break came very suddenly, Iverson took the ball and rushed forward, and after being caught up by Williams, he passed the ball to James who followed up, who received the ball and scored directly with a one-handed tomahawk.
After the dunk, James yelled at the audience and took the initiative to find Iverson for a strong high-five.
The boos from the fans chilled Iverson and upset the "little emperor".
Iguodala received the ball in front of the court and then organized, and Iverson pressed directly this time.
Iguodala was significantly stronger in the confrontation, taking a step past Iverson to the basket, but at the moment of the shot, James killed from behind and raised his hand to hit a pegboard hat.
Frye grabbed a backcourt rebound for James, and the Cavaliers pushed the defense to fight back.
Iverson's fast-break hit the right corner, exactly the same position as in the first two rounds.
James topped Thaddeus Young and directly chose to pass the ball.
Iguodala flew to block, Iverson received the ball and dummered, and Iguodala flew before shooting.
"Huh!"
With a crisp sound, the ball hollows into the net.
The second chance, he took it.
There was an uproar, followed by another wave of boos.
At this moment, Iverson tilted his head slightly as he walked back, and put his hand to his ear.
Familiar action, familiar picture.
Listen! Boo!
After seeing this scene, the Philadelphia fans at the scene suddenly quieted down unconsciously.
