Basketball Myth: Super Guard

"Have you seen the news?"

"What news?"

"The answer is back. Just this afternoon, the 76ers held a press conference. Iverson himself announced that he would return to the 76ers and return to the NBA."

"Really? Oh, that's great. He's my favorite player, and I've been worried that he's going to retire all of a sudden, and now he's back."

"Yeah, Iverson is back, back to his old club, I knew he would come back. And now the 76ers need him very much to fill Iguodala's position, I hope Iverson can help the 76ers get out During this period of pain."

The outside world is debating.

Iverson's return has excited many 76ers fans. For 76ers fans, Iverson is a classic symbol. He represents the 76ers of an era. He once brought the city of Philadelphia. Honor, brought glory to this team.

Although he failed to lead the 76ers to win the championship in the end, it was obvious to all how strong the Lakers were that year. Iverson has achieved the ultimate, beyond reproach.

Even if Iverson chooses to leave in pursuit of the championship, in the hearts of many fans, he is still the hero of the 76ers.

But some people don't care, because Iverson was at the end of his career when he returned to the 76ers a year ago. Now that he hasn't played for another year, can he still adapt to the NBA game and how much can he help the 76ers?

People don't think Iverson can fill Iguodala's vacancy.

Iverson at his peak was indeed one of the strongest players in the league, far ahead of Iguodala, but those are all in the past.

......

The next day, the 76ers practice at the arena.

The players arrived early and were talking about Iverson's return.

A moment later, Coach Luke arrived with a few assistants and Iverson.

"Alan."

"Brother, welcome back."

This naturally needs no introduction. Everyone is an acquaintance, hugging Iverson one by one and welcoming him back to the team.

Qin Hao also hugged Iverson, feeling a little excited. Iverson is one of his favorite players. When Qin Hao was selected by the 76ers, Iverson had already left the team and was unable to get along with him. It has always been Qin Hao's regret that Iverson competed in the same field.

Two or three months ago, in the game between the 76ers and the Knicks, Iverson came to the scene. After the game, Qin Hao asked if Iverson would come back.

At the time, Iverson's answer was "yes."

Qin Hao has been waiting for this day. At this time, Iverson finally came back. It was still at such a time point that he was very excited and it was difficult to calm down.

"I said I would be back." Iverson patted Qin Hao on the back and smiled: "Now, I'm back."

"Welcome." Qin Hao also said with a smile.

After everyone chatted for a while, Coach Luke instructed everyone to start training in groups. Iverson was assigned to Group A, along with Qin Hao, Brand, Nene, and Speights.

Lou Wei is back in Group B.

This is of course not because Lu Wei is not good. In fact, Lu Wei played very well and has outstanding strength, and Iverson has just returned. It is difficult to say how he is in. It stands to reason that Iverson should play as a substitute first and see how his game is. Then decide whether to start.

It's just that things are different now.

First, there are only less than one-third of the regular season games left. For the 76ers, time is tight, and there is no time to observe slowly and then adjust the lineup. Second, although Lou Wei is outstanding, he is still more Suitable for playing "sixth man", but also used to playing "sixth man".

He needs to have the ball in his hand to play well, but Qin Hao is the core of the starting lineup, and Qin Hao also has the ball, so he can't use all of Lou Wei's strength.

So Coach Luke decided to take a gamble and let Iverson start, and Lu Wei returned to his familiar "sixth man" position.

The competition will start soon.

Group A attacked, Qin Hao fed Iverson the ball after he came to the front court, but Iverson just came back. Although he had kept training before, it still took a process to adapt to the game. After getting the ball, he hesitated a bit. In the end, he chose to break through, but he failed to score.

In the next few rounds, Qin Hao kept feeding Iverson the ball, but the effect was not very good.

Seeing this, the assistant coach on the sidelines approached Coach Luke and whispered, "Coach, isn't it too risky to start Allen from the beginning?"

Regarding Coach Luke's consideration, the team's current situation, the assistant coach is naturally clear, but it seems that Iverson's state is not very good.

In fact, the reason why Iverson started as soon as he came back was not just because of the first two considerations, but also because Coach Luke hoped that Iverson could use his experience to lead Qin Hao around and help Qin Hao learn how to Be the core and leader of a team.

With the current situation of the 76ers, it is obviously unrealistic to expect Iverson to save the game.

After all, Iverson is 36 years old, still suffering from various injuries, and has not participated in official games for another year. How can he be in better condition?

Coach Luke's hope is still on Qin Hao. He hopes that Iverson can help Qin Hao grow up quickly. Only when Qin Hao grows up quickly can he lead the team to the playoffs.

on the field.

boom!

Iverson missed a three-pointer. He had missed a lot of balls, and he was a little depressed. When Qin Hao passed the ball to him again, he did not shoot it himself, but passed it to someone else.

After ten minutes, Coach Luke stopped.

When everyone came to the sidelines, Coach Luke spread out the tactical board and made some arrangements. When Iverson came back, the lineup changed again, and the tactics had to be adjusted again.

After a short rest, Coach Luke waved his hand: "Go on."

Before entering the field, Iverson pulled Qin Hao.

Qin Hao asked strangely, "what's the matter?"

Iverson said: "Qin, you don't have to feed me the ball all the time. You can play how you want. You are the tactical core of the team."

"But..." Qin Hao frowned.

Before he could finish speaking, Iverson said: "No need but. Qin, I'm not here to take over the team. I'm 36 years old, and there's not much gas left in my gas tank. You have to understand, now, this is Your team, you are the leader of the team."

Leader, me?

Qin Hao was shocked.

Although he is a rebirth and his mind is far more mature than the average person, he has never entered the NBA even in the last life. In his understanding, even if he is a hang-up, he must study hard in the first season and improve every day.

Even after Iguodala was injured, Qin Hao just thought that he needed to stand up for a while, waiting for Iguodala to come back.

Iverson's words left Qin Hao at a loss.
