"Alas, this year, I followed Iron Fist Investment and only made more than 10 million yuan, not as much as last year! Guys, what about you? Abdul-Jabbar said.

"I just started investing with him, and I only made more than two million dollars, Karim, you have to treat you." The assassin said with envy.

At this time, Rodman walked over with a blonde hair and said with a grin: "Do you make so little?" My Amazon and Fine Coffee stocks have risen by more than $30 million in a year, and I can make money lying in those chicks' beds, haha! ”

Reggie Miller laughed and scolded: "Big worm, this bastard has made a lot of money with Iron Fist, and now he has become a billionaire, right?" I followed him to invest, and I only made more than 20 million yuan in total. ”

"Billionaire? Sorry, I was a long time ago. Rodman said with a grin.

"Damn it!"

There was a bunch of flaunting dogs sitting around, and Barkley wanted to walk away.

……

At eight o'clock, the two sides announced the starting lineups.

Philadelphia: Mutombo, Teyronhill, Jumaine Jones, Aaron McGee, Allen Iverson

Sonics: Ben Wallace, Rashad Lewis, Bowen, Cory Magetti, Zhou Quan

NBC broadcasts live across the United States, with Elgin Baylor and Oscar Robertson narrating.

"The luck of the digital team is not good, the main point guard Eric Noe is injured, the main small forward George Lynch is injured, the main power forward Ratliff is reimbursed for the season, and the opponent is playing 71 wins SuperSonic, there is really no suspense in this finals." Elgin Baylor said.

Robertson nodded: "On the contrary, the supersonic injury has basically recovered, and God is on the side of the supersonic." ”

"Oscar, if the Philadelphia roster is complete, do you think there will be a suspense in this Finals?" Elgin Baylor asked suddenly.

Robertson was stunned, thought about it and shook his head: "If Latliff is here, he and Mutombo will join forces, a block king, a rebounding king, and can be called one of the most powerful interior defensive combinations in the league, and can be compared to Duncan and David Robinson in defense."

If he is there, then the breakthrough of the supersonic outer line will be more difficult. But I don't think it's going to be hard for Tekken, who is too stable in his mid-range shots.

But there's no doubt that Ratliff will make Philadelphia stronger, and he'll increase Philadelphia's stakes and make it harder for the SuperSonics to score.

If Alex Snow is also there, the Iron Fist King should still choose to defend Iverson, but Snow's ability to organize assists is not comparable to Aaron McGee, Snow can make Iverson willingly play without the ball, and he can make Philadelphia's offense more reasonable.

But now that he's gone, the Iron Fist locks up Iverson and Aaron McGee is in charge of the organization, and the Numbers offense will be weakened.

In short, if all three of them are healthy, I think the numbers will most likely still lose to the SuperSonics, but it shouldn't be out of the question. ”

Elgin Baylor nodded: "The current situation, judging from Iverson's words, Snow is not there, he will not give up the ball, he will attack with the ball." ”

"I think even if Snow was there, he would probably have chosen to attack with the ball." Robertson said.

Elgin Baylor was stunned, thought about it and nodded: "That's right, there is not much hope of winning, then his choice is to challenge the Iron Fist King and prove his personal worth." ”

……

Players tunnel, both teams start.

Iverson took a step first, and when he saw Zhou Quan who led the team over, he said eagerly: "Iron Fist King, I'm here." ”

Zhou Quan walked over and stretched out his right fist and smiled: "Aaron, welcome to the finals." ”

Three minutes later, the home team started the game.

"Defend your title! Defending! Defending...... Tekken! Tekken! Tekken ......"

From Ben Wallace, who was the first to appear, the overwhelming shouts rang out, and until Zhou Quan appeared, the shouts began to slowly change and gradually became a unified voice.

At half past eight, the game officially began.

Ben Wallace and Mutombo jump balls, and the numbers team attack.

Allen Iverson took the ball, Zhou Quan blocked in front, and he immediately changed to the right to speed up the halfway line and went to the right flank to hold the ball.

"Ouch, Iverson is this going to singles Zhou Quan?" Zhang Cheng said in surprise.

"Courage is commendable." Xu Jicheng said.

"In the G4 game of the Western Finals, Zhou Quan stole Kobe Bryant 9 times in a single game, and I don't know how many times he will steal Iverson today." Zhang said with reasonable expectation.

Iverson is well aware of the dangers of attacking with the ball in front of the Iron Fist, but he is not Kobe, his defense is poor, but he has more speed than the Iron Fist, he has better ball-handling breakthrough skills than Kobe, and he doesn't think he will be tackled as many times as Kobe.

When he was close to the three-point line, he suddenly changed direction in front of his cross-step body, like a butterfly through a flower, took a sudden step and then pulled it back, and then instantly jumped to shoot.

"Three points!" Zhang Li exclaimed.

Zhou Quan flew to block, Iverson jumped very high, his fingers almost touched the ball, but after all, it still didn't touch.

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, the goal still missed.

Big Ben stuck Mutombo, Lewis grabbed the backcourt rebound and threw it to Zhou Quan, who immediately held the ball and went down.

Iverson ran in front, a little faster than Zhou Quan, but only to a limited extent.

And his running can't achieve the purpose of defense at all, because in this case, the most important thing is to suppress Zhou Quan's advancing speed, but he doesn't, so his running is only a companion, and the defense is not of great significance.

Zhou Quan pushed forward with all his might, the same as playing the Lakers, with the aim of excluding Mutombo from Philadelphia's defensive system through a quick offensive and defensive transition, forming a short-term situation of playing more and playing smaller.

Even, Mutombo's defense is stronger than O'Neal's, and the need for superSonics to play fast break is greater than when he played the Lakers.

From the left wing to the front, Zhou Quan immediately changed direction to the middle, and the speed did not decrease.

Although Iverson ran in front, he only ran in front, and he couldn't stop Zhou Quan's advance.

When Zhou Quan hit the top of the left arc, Iverson flashed to the left to try to break the ball, and the point back Aaron McGee, who returned from the middle, reached out from the right side to cut the ball, and the two formed a pinch at the left end of the free throw line.

But he was prepared, and he instantly pulled up the ball between the right fries, dodged the two of them and then entered the penalty area, and then took off.

"Bang!"

With one hand splitting and dunking, the basket of the digital team was exploded in an instant.

"Oh roar!"

The Central Gymnasium immediately set off a carnival.

The number team attacks.

Iverson once again held the ball on the right wing three-point line and singled Zhou Quan.

This time, Zhou Quan no longer defended passively, but took the initiative to defend, stretched out his arms, stepped forward to grab, and went to the physical confrontation.

He looked almost twice as big as Iverson, who was only 75 kilograms tall and 9 centimeters tall, completely covering him like an eagle catching a chicken.

Allen Iverson reacted very quickly, didn't want to have any physical contact with Zhou Quan at all, immediately dribbled back a step, dribbled under the crotch and then switched to his left hand to control the ball, depressed his body, and tried to burst through the left side.

Zhou Quan predicted and moved early, and Iverson hit his head in the abdomen, and the ball lost control.

"Bang!"

He stepped straight forward and squeezed Iverson to the ground, pulled the ball off the floor with his right hand, and immediately began to go down quickly.

Iverson didn't ask the referee for a foul either, and chased after him when he got up, but where was the time?

When Zhou Quan hit the left waist position, Aaron McGee, who was defending from the top of the arc, chased to his side, he flicked back casually, and the basketball flew to the free throw line.

Aaron McGee, who rushed to the basket, turned around to see that Cory Magetti was already flying towards him with a basketball and hurriedly stepped aside.

"Bang!"

Corimageti's tomahawk slam detonated the central gymnasium again.

Iverson's third solo with the ball was the right-wing three-point line.

This time, Zhou Quan once again changed his defensive style, aggressive defense.

The aggressive defense is more active and pressing than the active defense, and the extremely fast stabbing action makes Iverson's nerves tense and he can only dribble back.

But Zhou Quan had expected Iverson's retreat, grabbed a step in time, continued to press, and stabbed the ball for the second time, fast and accurate.

Iverson, who was unstable, had to dribble back for the second time, already far from the three-point line, and then retreated to the halfway line. But he still couldn't get rid of Zhou Quan, who followed again and reached out to poke the ball for the third time.

This time, Iverson was forced to turn and protect the ball, and then turned right to break through.

However, Zhou Quan once again accurately predicted Iverson's intentions, and moved sideways in time, and Iverson hit him headfirst again.

"Smack!"

Zhou Quan knew the position and trajectory of the ball at a glance, leaned over and pulled the ball over in an instant, and completed a steal on Iverson for the second time.

"Bang!"

Three seconds later, Zhou Quan ended the counterattack with a violent slam.

"Huh...... Wow......"

Iverson was wheezing, not tired, but stressed.

He has been in the league since '96, because in the East, this is the first opportunity to play the playoffs with Zhou Quan, and it is also the first time to experience Zhou Quan's defensive intensity in the playoffs.

Suffocation, the defensive pressure that suffocated him, he felt like the Iron Fist King's defense was like a tide, wave after wave, so that he had no respite at all.

He had never experienced this kind of defensive intensity in the regular season, and the psychological collapse of the defensive pressure after just three offenses left him feeling breathless.

"Three offenses, two breaks, I feel like this Finals will allow Iverson to really start to focus on defense." Zhang Li said with a smile.

"He can't beat Zhou Quan. He has a certain speed advantage over Zhou Quan, but it is not big, and Zhou Quan is also very fast. Zhou Quan's confrontation advantage is too great, and as soon as his body makes a slight contact, his technical movements will be out of shape. Xu Ji became a Taoist.

Zhang Li nodded and said: "Iverson wants to break through Zhou Quan, one step is absolutely impossible to break through, one more step is necessary, two steps can break through."

His body is almost half the width of Zhou Quan, and with Zhou Quan's lateral speed and defensive skills, it is difficult for him to get around.

This steal just now was the same as the first steal, although he was faster, but his stride was small, and when he took the second step, Zhou Quan had already moved sideways into place and established a defensive position first.

Zhou Quan's shoulder width is a big advantage in the No. 1 position, plus there is a lot of hanging meat, after his weight reaches 97 kilograms, Jordan, who also has a shoulder width of 51 cm, is not as wide as his shoulders, and the real door panel body is a huge advantage on the defensive end, so few people can break him, it is too difficult. ”

The game continued, and Zhou Quan continued to lock up Iverson.

Iverson's first time scoring was his sixth offense with the ball, getting away from Zhou after a pick-and-roll from beyond the three-point line, and then hitting a two-point jumper from the distance. Got rid of two broken balls, 1 of 4 shots.

At this time, the score of the two teams was 4:12, Mutombo scored a goal, Philadelphia was already behind by 8 points, and the game had just entered the 4th minute.

Iverson then rested for two minutes and the two teams were tied at 6-16, with the numbers trailing by 10 points, and he started to attack with the ball again, was cut off again, and then shot 0-for-3.

With just over four minutes left in the first quarter, Iverson was broken three times on 1-of-7 shooting from Zhou's extreme defense to score just two points.

At 6:21, the SuperSonics had already led by as many as 15 points at home, Philadelphia called a timeout for the third timeout, and Larry Brown was already sweating profusely.
