Allen Iverson's first playoff performance was disappointing, and the Philadelphia media were a little disappointed.

Iverson gave his all for the game, but everyone could see that Coach Larry Brown was not happy with what the 76ers played.

With a lot of ball handling from the outside, simple breakaways, and low-level turnovers, the 76ers' performance in the third quarter caused the coaching staff to request a timeout in a row.

The point difference was widened, and in the fourth quarter, Iverson continued to play, which was a good fight with Sprewell.

On the NBC commentary bench, the game was out of suspense too early, and Bob Costas and Doug Collins watched the game but talked about the selection of awards.

Bob Costas took advantage of the timeout and began to praise Tim Duncan again:

"Tim Duncan led the team to a winning streak at the end of the season."

"It's a pity that the Spurs had a mediocre start to the season, otherwise he would have won the MVP this season!"

Doug Collins naturally understood what his partner meant, and followed suit:

"Point guards and power forwards have different responsibilities on the court, and Lee can lead the Knicks' offense and digest the ball when the team is having trouble scoring."

"Tim Duncan has an impact on both ends of the floor, but don't forget, he also has David Robinson next to him, and the Spurs have built the system for him as well."

Due to a shortened season, the NBA will soon announce the winners of each award, and Bob Costas continues the topic:

"If you were to vote, which player would you choose? Shaq has played really well this year as well. ”

Doug Collins did not forget that he was in New York, and immediately replied with a smile:

"I'm still going to vote for Lee, the Knicks have the best record in the league, and Lee has impeccable stats."

"Of course, this is just my personal opinion, and there will definitely be people who will make a different choice!"

There was no hope of chasing points, and Iverson gave up the game completely at the last moment, looking at Larry Brown's serious expression, and returned to his seat in frustration.

Madison Square Garden, New York fans have long been celebrating the victory, and they didn't forget to cheer for the atmosphere group at the last moment.

Scoring goals will cheer, Doug Collins looked at the technical stats and praised Iverson's performance:

"In the first playoff game of his career, Iverson played very well!"

"With 30 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 5 turnovers, Philadelphia fans need to be patient and I'm sure Iverson will eventually deliver on his talent."

12-of-29, 2-of-7 from beyond the three-point line, 4-of-7 from the free-throw line, and a shooting percentage in the early 40s, Bob Costas didn't say much, and then praised:

"Believing in the process, rookies also need time to grow, and Lee also lost in his first season."

As the game ran out, the final score was fixed at 88-102, and the Knicks easily defeated the 76ers.

In the fourth quarter of the game, Li You, who had been resting on the bench, stood up at this time and exchanged fists with the atmosphere group that was off the court.

It was no different from the regular season, the fans were still chanting his name loudly, and Li You waved to everyone at the end, and walked quickly to the players' tunnel with a smile on his face.

The media in New York were very happy with the Knicks' performance, and Sprewell, although he was a little ironclad, also locked up Larry Hughes!

The second team even played back and forth with the main team of the 76ers, and it was no longer a luxury to ask for more.

When Jeff Van Gundy returned to the locker room, he found that everyone was still not nervous, as if it was an ordinary regular season game, and everyone was chatting and farting after the game

The Knicks staff whispered a reminder to Li You, who was about to sit down:

"Lee, at the press conference, there may be questions from reporters and other players, so there's no need to be polite, you know, the MVP selection has already begun."

"I understand, thanks, man!"

Li You smiled and patted the other party on the shoulder, even if he played a good Excel, but because of the shortened season, there was no need to think about the unanimous MVP.

There will definitely be media options for Tim Duncan, O'Neal, Carl Malone, Aaron Zormonen, after all, everyone has good Excel.

Li You wants to win the award, but at this time he has to shout loudly, show his sense of existence, and express absolute confidence by the way.

Ewing noticed that the Knicks were attending a press conference in order to help Lee Woo build momentum, and suddenly felt that he was out of breath.

6-of-13, 5-of-6 free throws, 17 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks and 1 turnover.

Li You was still communicating with the staff, and Larry Johnson on the side shouted:

"The first record in the league should be MVP, this has always been the selection criterion!"

As soon as Oakley heard this, he seemed to think of the situation in the past two years, and immediately followed with a low teasing:

"Karl Malone's experience shows that sometimes results don't do much, and those media are judged by their personal preferences!"

At this time, the atmosphere group also began to talk about this year's MVP, and the record is not much different

Played 26 minutes, 6-of-12, 1-of-3 from beyond the three-point line, 7-of-7 from the free throw line, 20 points, 5 rebounds, 10 assists, 1 steal and 1 turnover.

Li You, who clocked in in the third quarter, was still efficient, but when it came to the post-game press conference, the media in the audience did not pay attention to his performance tonight.

As the broadcaster, NBC's reporters came up and asked the questions that the media were most concerned about:

"Lee, can you talk about your thoughts on MVP? If you win this award, you will become the youngest winner in NBA history! ”

Seeing that everyone in the audience was looking at him directly, Li You, who had been prepared, replied confidently:

"The Knicks have the best record in the league and we've had a perfect season!"

"With the help of my team-mates and the coaching staff, I also played well."

"Maybe I'm a little short compared to the previous winners, but I'm the better player in this particular season!"

"I'm ready, by the way, say hello to Shaq on my behalf, and I'll be in training camp this offseason and share my free throw tips."

When many reporters heard Li You mention O'Neill, they all chuckled.

At the end of the regular season, the Sharks, who lost the scoring title, fired on all cylinders, and during the two days of rest, they kept complaining to the media that Li You and Iverson were data brushes.

Compared with the low-key Tim Duncan, O'Neal, who played a historic level of efficiency, has been extremely high-profile these days.

The shark still did not give up the MVP, constantly touted himself, and even confidently declared to the major sports media:

"I know a lot of young fans who haven't seen Chamberlain play, so they don't have to look for those ancient videos, just watch the Lakers games!"

When these words were spoken, the media in Los Angeles were ecstatic, and for two days in a row, the front page headlines were O'Neill's news.

is also in the center position, and also played a historic PER, O'Neal's words have indeed attracted the attention of more fans.

Throughout the press conference, no one paid attention to the 76ers' loss at all, and the overly dense schedule and fast-paced awards made everyone focus on Li You.

On the morning of May 9, the New York media continued to help Li You wave the flag and shout!

While touting Li You, he did not forget to mock the arrogant O'Neill:

"Wilt Chamberlain has two championships!"

The NBA seems to have turned into a major basketball reality show these days, with New York and Los Angeles having the loudest media voices and leading the way.

In the game that was played simultaneously last night, at 88:75, the Magic team overturned and lost to the Eagles.

Darrell Armstrong, who had just won the Most Improved Player (MIP) award on his home turf, was frustrated.

As a non-draft player and a small guard, it's rare to win an award, but no one pays attention.

The hook could only shake his head when he saw Anfernee Hardaway's performance, and even the old coach Chuck Daley brought in by the Magic team didn't seem to have much effect.

The signed sneakers at the end of the year, Li You's promotional resources, there is a high probability that they will overwhelm the second brother of the hook.

On the evening of May 9, Alonzo Mourning received the DPOY trophy with a smile on his home court, and the Heat fans in attendance cheered loudly.

This season, Olajuwon and Ewing have both started to decline, but Mourning has played at the top of his game.

After Olajuwon, David Robinson, and Mutombo, Mourning became the fourth player in NBA history to win both DPOY and block titles!

After less than three hours of joy, the Heat were shot by the Bucks.

At 88:75, Alonzo Mourning ushered in his own mileage.

In his first career playoff game, Ray Allen scored a game-high 22 points on 9-of-16 shooting, 2-of-6 from beyond the three-point line, and 2-of-3 from the free-throw line.

Lee Woo also followed the game in his Manhattan apartment and sent a message of congratulations as soon as possible after the game.

After supplementing the alien Kassel, the Bucks officially turned on the three musketeer modes.

Most of the sports media that night focused more on the Rockets and Lakers games.

With the addition of Scottie Pippen, the Rockets, who once again turned on the senior Big Three mode, lost again.

Five seconds before the end, Kobe Bryant stood at the free throw line and hit both free throws to help the Lakers overtake the score.

At the last moment, Catino Mobley made a layup and was blocked by O'Neal, and the Lakers successfully defended their home court!

At 100:101, the Lakers managed to defeat the highly-anticipated Rockets.

True thigh Charles Barkley scored a team-high 25 points on 11-of-19 shooting;

Olajuwon was 10-of-13 from the field and also had 22 points on the books.

The Lakers blossomed on multiple points, with Glen Rice scoring a game-high 29 points on 12-of-17 shooting;

O'Neal made 5-of-14 free throws but went 11-of-23 from the field and had a double-double of 27 points and 11 rebounds.

Fisher hit four three-pointers and contributed 20 points, while Bryant was 5-of-9 for 17 points.

The Lakers' performance like this made the Los Angeles media excited, and they continued to cheer for O'Neal!

On the morning of May 10, the NBA league announced the Sixth Man of the Season (SMOY):

The Knicks' Latrill Sprewell won the award without any suspense.

He played 46 games in the regular season, averaging 28.8 minutes per game.

averaged 16.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.1 turnovers per game;

He averaged 14.0 shots per game while shooting 41.5 percent from the field and 5.2 free throws per game while shooting 81.2 percent from the free-throw line.

Although Sprewell's three-point shooting this season was stretched, as the team's sixth man, he did an excellent job of scoring.

At the end of the video session in the morning, everyone on the Knicks congratulated Sprewell on winning the award.

"Madman" had a smile on his face, but the whole person was not in a high mood, and he didn't want to play as a substitute at all.

Starks can accept the status of the sixth person, mainly due to the decline in physical condition;

Sprewell thinks he's still at his peak and that playing on the bench is just a product of compromise.

He has quietly contacted his agent, and at the end of the season, he is ready to leave New York

Li You naturally saw Sprewell's thoughts, and the old guy also knew that this was destined to be just a passerby, and the other party had never integrated into the locker room.

Jeff van Gundy also understands Sprewell's thinking, but as head coach, he doesn't disrupt the team's existing chemistry.

At the end of the video lesson, after sending blessings, the bald young marshal clapped his hands and said:

"Don't be careless tonight, we're going to get match points at home."

"The opponent will definitely slow down the pace of attack, be patient in the attack and don't give the opponent any chance."

Hearing the head coach's advice, everyone nodded and prepared for lunch

Assistant coach Thibodeau was used to such a scene and said with some concern after the players left:

"Sprewell doesn't seem to be going to continue playing for the team, and seriously, we're going to have a hard time finding a sixth man like that."

Assistant coach Don Chaney shook his head helplessly, this is the player's personal choice, and it is useless to draw cakes:

"Expecting an all-star in great physical shape to be a substitute is a luxury in itself, and the fact that there is no situation in the locker room has exceeded my expectations."

Seeing several people looking at him, Jeff Van Gundy was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't talk to the general manager Grenfield, so he could only say with a serious face at this time:

"We're going to focus on the playoffs now and we don't have to think about the offseason."

"If you win the championship, maybe the other party will change their minds, all you have to do is focus on tonight's game!"

Everyone in the coaching staff looked at each other and didn't say anything at the end.

That evening, Allen Iverson was at Madison Square Garden to witness Sprewell lift the trophy.

"Oh!!"

The cheers in the arena were particularly harsh for the 76ers.

When I came to New York, in addition to being bombarded by Li You's advertisement, all I left was to watch the Knicks win the award.

Iverson, who was not in a beautiful mood, silently warmed up after completing the appearance ceremony.

Larry Brown was furious after the G1 game, and the 76ers' starting five were not in a high mood tonight after being sprayed by the coach

G1 won the opponent, and the New York fans were completely inflated, and they didn't take the 76ers seriously at all.

It's just that after the game started, as the opponent delayed and slowed down desperately, Ewing and Oakley spit cakes continuously, and the cheers on the scene were much smaller.

At 7:7, with 6 minutes and 30 seconds left in the first quarter, Jeff Van Gundy reluctantly asked for a timeout.

Ewing returned to the bench and depressedly replenished his water, obviously it was all empty opportunities, but the result was that he couldn't make it

"Be patient, stay patient, pay attention to the rebounds in the backcourt, Lee, you come and get the rebounds, and speed up the offensive tempo!"

The bald young marshal did not take the tactical version, but directly told Ewing and Oakley to play the board.

Larry Brown opted to play 24 seconds to suppress the pace of the game and finally let Iverson handle the ball and complete the offense.

Once the iron was struck, the 76ers fought on the spot, and the opponent Bang Bang Bang hit the iron, but the Knicks did not make a switch.

Li You nodded, in fact, he was more patient than the bald young marshal imagined, as long as the other party didn't score, there was no problem in consuming it all the time.

“Let's go Knicks！ Let's go Knicks！ Let's go Knicks！ ”

In the first half of the game, scoring was difficult, and the DJ on the scene continued to cheer and cheer with the fans after a timeout.

With the baseline ball, Eric Snow continued to lead the defense, and Li You did not advance quickly, almost holding down 8 seconds to dribble through the half.

In the first half of the game, Ewing spit cakes continuously, and Li You stopped calling for blocking this time and came to the left wing, and everyone on the Knicks began to move and clear one side.

Ewing stayed near the baseline on the right side, ready to eat his pie, while Alan Houston lay in ambush in the bottom right corner to watch his opponent's defense.

Oakley moved to the right elbow of the free throw line, and Larry Johnson simply took a position on the right wing, with both acting as catch-points.

Eric Snow, who had come to the left flank, glanced behind him and saw that there was space behind him

On the three-point line, Li You, who was holding the ball in his left hand, protected the ball sideways, paused slightly, suddenly pulled the ball back, and then violently lowered the center of gravity of his body, and broke through with a simple and rough shoulder press.

The 76ers had just moved to finish the defense, and then they saw Li You go straight to the basket against the defense.

Matt Geiger was just trying to move to help the defense and break through to the bottom left of the basket near the paint area, and Lee jumped to carry Eric Snow away, and threw the ball to the rebound with his left hand.

"Bang!"

The basketball high board entered the frame, and the Madison Square Garden arena once again erupted in huge cheers.

Seeing that he shook his head and retreated to Li You, Iverson, who was just smoking in the bottom corner, wanted to show himself, but as soon as he received the ball, Larry Brown on the sidelines kept reminding loudly:

"Steady! Hold the pace! ”

In desperation, Iverson gave the ball to Eric Snow, and the 76ers played an honest tactical match.

The big man received the ball in the elbow area, handed it to the upper line, quickly passed the ball after the outside cover, and Iverson broke through with the ball at 45 degrees on the right side.

In the help defense, Iverson then moved the ball to the left bottom corner, and George Lynch received the ball without a shooting opportunity and continued to transfer the ball to the line.

After Iverson repeatedly cut twice and continuously compressed the Knicks' defense, Eric Snow on the outside was let go by Lee You, and after receiving the ball on the right wing, he got an open shot.

Seeing that the offensive time was about to be 24 seconds, after some adjustments, Eric Snow finally hit the iron in the open position.

The basketball smashed into the back edge of the basket and bounced high, Ewing and Oakley stuck the two big men of the 76ers on their bodies, and Larry Johnson was pulling George Lynch.

Li You, who retracted to the basket, grabbed the rebound, and then, with the ball in his right hand, accelerated.

Alan Houston ran to half-court at the first time, accelerated to the left flank, and pulled the attacking space.

The 76ers' big man was delayed in his retreat, and he could only watch Eric Snow chase down Lee You's side, and the two were at the top of the arc in the blink of an eye.

Stepping on the three-point line, Li You did not slow down, but continued to accelerate the breakthrough against the opponent's defense.

Rushing to the paint area, three steps rushed up, and Li You quickly changed hands behind his back.

After switching to the left hand, grab the ball with one hand, lean on the opponent, and after the aerial confrontation, dodge the block and pick the basket quickly!

"Oh!!"

The basketball entered the frame, the New York fans at the scene shouted happily, and the fancy switching offense once again ignited the atmosphere of the arena.

On the NBC commentary bench, Doug Collins saw Li You's 4 points in a row, and immediately exclaimed:

"Coach Van Gundy adjusted the game strategy in time, and it seems that it worked well, and Lee's finishing efficiency under the basket has improved a lot this season!"

At 7:11, the Knicks took a four-point lead.

Seeing Larry Brown continue to signal to press the tempo, Bob Costas reluctantly said:

"The 76ers should probably consider picking things up, and it's clear that the Knicks have adapted to their style of play."

After the opening game, Iverson hit a catch-the-pot three-pointer, and then the catch-the-pot jumper was missing the ball.

With the same offensive rhythm, the 76ers almost consumed another 24 seconds, and when Iverson received the ball on the left wing, he was let go by Alan Houston in front of him, and when he encountered such a defense, he jumped again!

"Bang!"

The long rebound bounced into Alan Houston's arms, and Iverson immediately stepped forward to press it, and the Knicks couldn't make it to the offense this time.

When Li You received the ball and dribbled across the half court to the top of the arc, he noticed that the opponent had completed the defensive position, and immediately slowed down when he approached the three-point line.

Taking advantage of the delay in Eric Snow's hand, Li You quickly dribbled the ball under his crotch, and the moment he switched to his left hand, he immediately went around his back sharply, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and accelerated the breakthrough.

Losing half of his position, Eric Snow pulled and tugged in an attempt to slow Li You.

The two were entangled and rushed across the free throw line, and Li You suddenly leaned on the other party to complete the spinning top and turn.

Instantly came to the paint area in front of the basket, Matt Geiger, who was near the baseline on the left, subconsciously moved up to help defend, but found that the ball in Li You's hand was missing.

Matt Geiger didn't have time to turn back to the defense, and received a hidden breakthrough from Li You, and Ewing came directly to the bottom left of the basket with a powerful one-handed slam dunk!

"Ahh

The gorilla who completed the dunk stood under the basket and screamed, venting his frustration.

Jeff Van Gundy, who was on the sidelines, clapped his hands uncontrollably, gave Lee You a thumbs up, and sat back on the bench with a smile.

Seeing Li You raise his hands and stir up the atmosphere of the scene, Iverson wanted to show it again, and then heard Larry Brown remind loudly again.

Without a strong individual attack, and another 24 seconds of pressing, Iverson broke through the pot, attracted Ewing's help defense in the paint area, and immediately distributed the ball to Matt Geiger on the bottom right of the basket.

The latter bent down to catch the ball, and when he wanted to get up and dunk, he immediately attracted Ewing's twisted block!

"Oh!!"

To the exclamation of the New York fans, Ewing completed the pegboard cap, the basketball popped, and Alan Houston took control of the ball before throwing the ball to Larry Johnson.

The latter received the ball, dribbled two big strides and quickly distributed the ball to Li You, who was accelerating in the middle.

Eric Snow stepped back quickly, and George Lynch also returned to half-court for a two-on-two.

Approaching the three-point line at the top of the arc, Li You, who was holding the ball in his left hand, paused slightly, lowered his center of gravity, and pretended to break through.

Taking advantage of the right rear sliding step in the opposite direction, Li You immediately crossed the step and pulled back, and after switching to the right hand, he paused again and looked up at the basket.

Eric Snow hurriedly jumped up to block, and at the same time, George Lynch, who had returned to the right block, was also attracted by Lee's shooting.

At the moment when the opponent's defense lost focus, Li You immediately sent a hitting pass, and George Lynch, who realized that something was wrong, hurriedly intercepted.

The basketball went past George Lynch's fingertips, and Larry Johnson came to the bottom right of the basket, caught the ball, and made a layup!

Once again, the transition offense was played, and off the bench, the Knicks atmosphere team waved their fists in celebration.

Sensing that the atmosphere was completely different, Bob Costas in the commentary box once again praised:

"That's Lee's ability, you can see it, you can pass it, and the Knicks just need to run to the position and score easily."

"There may be doubts about his defense, but as the No. 1 position, I think Lee has done well enough."

At 7:15, head coach Larry Brown looked serious and asked for a timeout again.

Doug Collins was a little frustrated when he saw the 776ers players walking to the bench, and said unceremoniously:

'A lot of times, coaches should give their players free rein, and Van Gundy did a better job of that!'

'It's not the rhythm that Allen Iverson is good at, he should find his aggression again.

After the timeout, the extremely controlling Larry Brown did not let go, and the 76ers continued to play tactical cooperation one by one.

The pace of the game was slowed down again, but the Knicks' offense became simple and rough.

Alan Houston and Larry Johnson took turns playing back-to-back singles in the left and right blocking positions to help the team score points.

The 76ers attacked, Iverson managed to get Matt Geiger to eat under the basket, and back to the ball, Alan Houston again asked for the ball with his back in the right blocking area.

Iverson was behind him, constantly going around the front defense, and Alan Houston took the opportunity to suddenly cut to the basket, right wing, and Lee Woo followed to throw the ball to the top right of the basket.

Li You's bold pass finally reaped a beautiful goal!

Although it wasn't an aerial relay, Madison Square Garden was in complete seepage after Alan Houston jumped up to put the ball in the basket.

Ewing basically didn't participate in much offense at this time, and Oakley, who had a poor shooting hand, also began to focus on rebounding and defense, completing offense in a row, and the Knicks regained their rhythm of the game.

Alan Houston seemed to have found confidence on Iverson's side, attacking several times and taking the initiative to ask for the ball.

After this false shake, Iverson immediately chose to foul and sent Alan Houston directly to the free throw line.

Larry Brown was still motioning for his players to steady their pace, and noticing the situation, Lee Yoo stood outside the three-point line and began to tease the old rival:

"Since when did you listen to your coach like that? Man, let go of the offense! ”

Iverson didn't look at Lee Yoo either, kept the back of his head, and went to the sidelines to be taught by Larry Brown.

Jeff Van Gundy took the opportunity to replace the in-form Ewing and Oakley, with Ben Wallace and Kurt Thomas coming on.

The 76ers did not choose to make substitutions at this time, falling into a scoring drought, and the starters were depressed

Alan Houston hit a second free throw, and Matt Geiger just wanted to pick up the rebound, but was hit by Ben Wallace and stumbled.

Grabbing the rebound, Ben Wallace jumped up again and put the ball in the basket.

"Ahh

After a round of three points successfully, the atmosphere group on the sidelines roared with "Little Ben".

At 9:25, with 1 minute 02 seconds left in the first quarter, Iverson couldn't hold back at all and directly threw the head coach's advice to his head.

Relying on his individual ability, Iverson helped the 76ers score points, and then hit the iron quickly, allowing Li You to seize a chance to counterattack.

As the first quarter of the game drew to a close, Lee You, who grabbed a long rebound, quickly advanced and came to the right wing against Iverson's defense.

Constantly cutting the ball and approaching the three-point line, Li You's quick back-dribbling immediately made Iverson lose his defensive position.

Hit Lee You's left hand again, but Iverson's strong defensive aggression made him lose his position again.

The moment he completed the crotch dribble and switched to the right hand, Li You completed the horizontal step, completely shook out the shooting space, and converted three points to quickly jump shot!

"Huh!" Three-pointers hollow into the net.

With only one second left for the 76ers, Iverson, who was furious, took the baseline ball, threw it directly to the halfcourt, and then glared and quickly returned to the bench.

At 11:28, looking at such a score, the two people in the NBC commentary booth looked at each other.

"The 76ers played really well in the first half of the game, and Rally Brown's adjustments made a difference."

"However, compared to the Knicks, the 76ers still lack talent, and they don't have much to do in the face of some individual strong attacks."

Doug Collins commented on the game euphemistically, and Bob Costas on the side simply changed the topic:

"Sprewell doesn't seem to be planning to continue playing in New York, the sources are very reliable!"

Hearing the gossip news, Doug Collins quipped:

"Being the sixth man on a championship team, the stats do suffer, but I don't think it's a good idea to leave New York!"

"A lot of times, the Knicks will choose to use Lee and Sprewell in the backcourt, plus Alan Houston, a three-guard lineup, and they can also play a bad chemistry."

'Sprewell should be patient, this is his first season with the team.'

Perhaps the agent released the news in advance, and New York fans who pay attention to gossip news naturally know the plans of the "madman".

By the time the rotation lineup came on, there were scattered boos in the arena, some for the visiting players and some for Sprewell, who was about to run away.

The New York media is big-mouthed, the New York fans are inflated and arrogant, and Sprewell, who received the award tonight and enjoys special treatment, feels that he has made the right choice!

Ewing was also booed by New York fans, but since winning the championship, the treatment has changed completely.

"We should talk to him, and before the offseason, let the agent release the news, which is a bit of a passing line!"

In the morning, everyone was happy to bless the "madman", and in the afternoon, there was news of leaving the team, and the gorilla was a little nervous when he saw Sprewell, who started to strike iron again after his debut.

Oakley looked at the situation on the field and responded casually:

"As long as he works hard to defend, that's enough, don't care about the news."

Alan Houston was also whispering to Li You at this time:

"It seems that Sprewell really doesn't like his role in the team."

Li You looked at Jeff Van Gundy, the bald young marshal seemed unaffected, and then thought of the relationship between the other party and the general manager Grenfield, covered his mouth with a towel, and responded in a low voice:

"There is no big contract without data, such a choice is not unexpected!"

Before the game, the atmosphere in the Knicks' locker room was a little weird, and Jeff Van Gundy naturally knew it, but he couldn't do anything about it, so he could only devote himself to the game at this time:

"Retreat! Everyone quickly retreated! ”

“.”

Iverson didn't choose to rest and continue to play, but he stopped playing as Larry Brown asked him to do and returned to his usual offensive rhythm.

In the positional attack, Iverson does not need to block and dismantle, and adjusts his pace after dribbling under his crotch.

The body shook to the left, then changed the direction of the body sharply, changed to the right hand and feigned a breakthrough, the free throw line stopped sharply, and Iverson made a jumper!

Sprewell received the ball in the left blocking area, and after a tentative step, he put the ball on his shoulder and broke through with his left hand, and went straight to the basket, causing a foul on Larry Hughes's beater.

The two main scorers in the bench lineup were average in efficiency, but the game was lively, and the New York fans at the scene shouted happily.

The 76ers returned to their previous offensive quarter, and in addition to no three-pointers, Iverson scored singles and broke through to help the team score consecutive points.

On the Knicks' side, Sprewell didn't care about hitting the iron, and Ben Wallace grabbed it all the way when he missed the basket;

Chris Childs will also give Cotter a pie in the middle distance, and for a while, the two sides were deadlocked, and they kept cutting points.

With a big lead, Jeff Van Gundy completely let go and almost let the bench play the full second quarter.

Before half-time, he changed into a starting body.

At 33:52, close to a 20-point difference, the fans at the scene began to twist along with the music.

With 3-of-7 shooting and 4-of-5 free throws in the quarter, Sprewell scored 10 points and once again proved his scoring ability.

Jeff Van Gundy rubbed his eyebrows, such a sixth man is indeed hard to find, but he quickly put such thoughts behind him, and he can't control it.

In the half, Li You only played less than 15 minutes, 4-of-6, 1-of-2 from beyond the three-point line, 2-of-2 from the free throw line, and got 11 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists.

Looking at the technical statistics, Bob Costas can only summarize the game briefly:

"There is a big difference in strength between the two sides, which reminds me of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs, 87-117, the Jazz beat the Kings!"

"The 76ers, who lacked playoff experience, like the Kings, failed to adapt to the intensity of the game."

Doug Collins thinks there is something wrong with the 76ers' game strategy, but he won't blame Larry Brown at this time:

"When we get back home, the 76ers still have a chance, and Philadelphia fans still need to be patient, and the team needs their encouragement right now."

In the third quarter of the game, with the margin not narrowed, Jeff Van Gundy began to experiment with different lineup combinations.

The bald young marshal's operation suddenly made Larry Brown feel humiliated

The famous coach's face was gloomy, and Iverson didn't play as planned, and after asking for a timeout, he simply changed to the atmosphere group and no longer gave Iverson a chance to play.

The master and apprentice did not agree with each other, there was no communication between them, and the atmosphere group of the 76ers did not dare to say anything, and everyone could only watch the game time pass quickly.

In the end, 75:100, the Knicks defeated the opponent and successfully got the match point, and the big score came to 2:0.

Li You, who was substituted early, smiled and shook hands with everyone on the 76ers.

In the next game, the Knicks will fly to Philadelphia, and Iverson is in a bad mood, so he didn't forget to say cruel words at this time:

"It's not over yet, go back home and I'll win the game!"

The two simply shook hands and greeted each other, and when Li You heard the other party's self-confidence declaration, he didn't choke back, but responded with a smile:

"It's over, man! If you'd like to come to New York to watch the finals, don't forget to text me! ”

Seeing Li You's smiling face, and remembering that he had been bombarded with advertisements in the hotel in the past few days, Iverson turned around and left.

When he came to the players' tunnel, the New York fans on both sides were still spitting, and suddenly Iverson scolded secretly:

"Fack, shit New York."
