Chapter 153: Attack of Utah (12)

To be honest, of all the NBA teams that Larry has coached, Larry's favorite treatment is definitely Allen, but Allen is also his most helpless and headache player. Aaron is often late for training, doesn't listen to commands, etc., etc., etc., etc., are the most headaches.

But in the game, Aaron also gave him the most headache.

First of all, Allen is too short and has an innate defensive disadvantage. Especially since he faces the best shooting guard on the planet most of the time, and the height difference is too great.

Secondly, although Allen did not develop the bad habit of "giving the ball to others is not cost-effective" on the street court like Marbury, because of the experience of being in prison, Allen had the idea that "only if you have yourself can you save yourself", and also brought this concept into his NBA career. So in the first few years of playing point guard, he developed the habit of taking too many shots, which made the other players very unbearable, until Larry came.

Larry himself is a coach who started defense, and he is very high at defense, but the current star of the team's first pick is not completely unable to defend, but it is the same as no defense. So Larry has no other way but to let other players defend to make up for Allen's defensive void, as for offense, there is such a big killer, why not use it?

So much so that all along, the 76ers' lineup has been the same. After this year's playoffs, Larry also had a falling out with Allen, and although it was resolved before the season, there were still some disagreements until Luke's arrival.

Luke, based on his defensive foundations, became the second point of attack for the Philadelphia 76ers after Allen. The 76ers made a qualitative leap. On this basis, the 76ers also have McGee and Reed, two super bench bandits, on standby, and the 76ers' attack power no longer has to be pressed on Allen. Allen feels the joy of passing and doesn't play as much as he used to, and now the 76ers, who have changed their ways, lead the league rankings, which means that if nothing else, the playoffs are no problem. Now is the time to hone the squad and strengthen the team to integrate the surname.

Especially now that Aaron has gone down to rest. And the other players are fine, and the other party is the same as before. Coupled with the fact that Larry has a long-coveted lineup that has nowhere to try, now is a good time to get the hang of it.

So Larry decisively sent the strongest lineup of the 76ers on the field now.

McGee, Luke, Tony? Kukocchi, Tyrone, and Big Ben.

The lineup is neat, and everyone is still on fire.

Pulling people to the ground so openly and causing the opponent's best player to be injured and not being sent off the game, the 76ers don't know what to say, although they all know that there is such a thing as a star effect, but this is still unacceptable.

So, the 76ers really broke out.

The Seven-Six really played a real triangle attack this time.

This time Luke is no longer "Big Bug" Rodman, but God!

Big Ben was elected Rodman and continued to do what Luke had just done, but he seemed to do a better job, just, well, more rebounds and a little better defense.

Luke is back in God's place, so no one can defend against it!

"Playing as a shooting guard, well, it's a bit unaccustomed." Luke said, twisting his head.

"But your time of death is up!" Luke's eyes sharpened.

Big Ben has a good eye on Karl Malone, and this time it's only Russell who defends Luke.

This Russell is not the eleven champion ancient center Bill Russell, but Byron Russell. Byron? Russell, a fan of the Chicago Cubs since childhood, graduated from Long Beach State University in 1993 and was named the "All-American High School Athlete." Before going to university, he only received 3 years of formal basketball training; When he graduated from high school, he was ranked 18th in the country as a small forward.

Byron? Russell and Jordan's feud began in the 1993-1994 season, when Russell, who had just entered the league, was young and frivolous. Jordan has retired to splurge in a major baseball league.

In 1994, Jordan was in Chicago, but he had no idea of making a comeback. At one point, Russell walked up to Jordan and said, "'Why are you retiring?'" Because you know I can keep you at bay, and if I see you in your gym shorts, hum, I'm going to blow you up. Jordan remembers the scene vividly. A year later, with the famous phrase "iamback", the trapeze was restored. In 1996, he met Russell, who wore a Jazz jersey, at the United Center arena in Chicago.

Russell once provoked Jordan, "If I see you in gym shorts, hum, I'm going to blow you up". Byron? Russell's stunning fall in the 1998 Finals forever tied to Jordan's accolades. "The Flyer" went down in history with his sixth championship ring on his opponent.

But that doesn't mean he's bad defensively, with a height of 2.01, he has no obvious shortcomings and is solid, with three points and defense. Almost all-powerful. And it's a bit of a credibility to use him as a shooting guard. But the opponent is Luke now.

The best way to deal with him is to corssover, and this trick will work for him.

So Luke played.

A sudden acceleration went straight past Byron? Russell, not even the bad luck was used.

Then settle the fight with an easy jump shot.

"This opponent of the Qiao gang leader is really ...... It's very deep to eat this trick, so use this trick. Luke said to himself as he replied.

After the offense and defense exchanged, the Utah Jazz passed the ball to Byron? Russell.

Russell opted to hit Luke in the back.

"Boy! You'll know how awesome I am! Russell said.

"Hehe, take care of yourself." Luke said with a smile.

"Then try!" Russell was preparing to break through, but ...... What about balls?

"Be careful next time, old fellow!" Luke was already running with the ball.

"Damn it!" Russell exclaimed in anguish.

But Russell's last days are not over yet, and the current Russell is "molested" like when he played in the finals three years ago!

Luke hit the final three-pointer to win the game and beat the Utah Jazz.

"Good job, boy!" At the end of the handshake, Karl Malone said.

"Thanks, old man! Had a lot of fun today! Luke said.

"Damn, am I that old?" Carl Malone laughed and scolded, "Okay, help me apologize to Aaron, I really didn't mean it just now." And next time I come to Utah, I'm in for a treat! ”

"Got it, take care, old man!" "Damn it! Don't call me old man! ”
