basketball never sleeps

Chapter 78 Even if I give you a chance, you won’t be able to use it.

Scored 30+ points in two consecutive games, setting back O'Neal's reputation by three years.

People seem to have seen the mighty Shark of that dynasty Lakers again.

O'Neal himself was also very happy. He invited his teammates to go to a nightclub in Miami and have fun together until midnight. Before leaving, Mo Wen saw that O'Neal's car was heading back in the wrong direction, and he almost knew what was going on.

Some time ago, O'Neal took a two-month rest due to injury. After returning, he was still chatting in the locker room. He was going to be a father again.

Sometimes, it's really half-assed, so don't laugh at anyone.

Mo Wen's comment on this was: People are addicted to food.

Just like what was revealed later after Shannie and O'Pang divorced, O'Neal had the body of an elephant and the parts of a goat. Of course, this did not affect O'Pang's fun-loving heart. After all, if you have money, you can do whatever you want.

What should I do? Then pick an opponent with the same poor defensive ability. Later, O'Neal's several petite girlfriends after his divorce also highlighted his X·P.

When he came back the next day, O'Neal's legs really looked a little weak.

Riley noticed this situation when he inspected the team's training, but he did not coddle O'Neal. Instead of letting O'Neal rest, he intentionally added two sets of training sessions to the team, which attracted the exhausted O'Neal to train.

Then he cursed.

Time is ruthless, and Aopang is already a 33-year-old middle-aged man. No matter how much weight he loses and he trains, his physical fitness cannot return to what he was when he was young.

Seeing that they were going to play the 76ers in the next game, Mo Wen originally wanted to suggest that Riley should not be so aggressive and give him some energy, but after thinking about it, O'Neal himself didn't say anything. He didn't seem to be a middle-class mercenary.

So much needs to be said.

Mo Wen also attaches great importance to physical fitness. He often asks Catherine to practice with him after team training. Each time he starts training for an hour. Overall, the training effect is not bad. Recently, his physical attributes have increased the fastest and have already increased.

When he reached 78, he was considering investing two high-level potential rough stones that had recently produced good results in his physical strength.

Moreover, another advantage of the copy space is that every time his consciousness enters the copy space, his body will fall into a deep sleep state and his physical energy will recover very quickly.

Even if it was an overload exercise that would make Catherine, who was working out with him, so tired that she couldn't move, he would be able to recover half of his physical strength in almost one night.

The match between the Heat and the 76ers was a recent focus game that was broadcast live across the United States.

Wade's few 30+ points at the beginning of the season were not in vain. His violent breakthrough speed has become the focus of the league's promotion of him.

The showdown between the "fast man of the new era" and the current "league's fastest" Iverson is naturally full of gimmicks.

Wade, who had been a green leaf for his teammates in the previous games, finally ushered in his own stage, which made this "big cheek" excited. Although his previous statistics were not bad, the feeling of being the second and third child was really

awkward.

Not only compared with his teammates, Wade also envied LeBron, who was in the same class as him. After losing three games in a row at the beginning of the regular season, the Cavaliers have now won 6 consecutive games. Since the beginning of the season, they have scored 20+ points in 9 consecutive games, which has attracted a lot of praise from the media.

Last week, he won the Player of the Week award with an average of 27+9+6 per game.

"Look, it's my turn to get super data! If you two bastards dare not pass the ball to me later, I will..."

On the team bus going to the airport, Wade, who had returned from fantasy time, suddenly felt swollen with contentment.

"Hmm? What about you?"

O'Neal and Mo Wen, who were still discussing the new song to be released, both turned their heads and looked at Wade.

"I...I will never order pizza for you again!"

Looking at the big arms stretched out by the two of them, Wade said without any fear.

Because the game was on the weekend, this game was also broadcast live by Yangma.

The familiar voices of Shuang Ping's partner also sounded from the TV along with the broadcast footage.

"The two teams in today's game are the 76ers and the Heat. Judging from the strength of the two teams, the Heat have the advantage, especially after O'Neal's comeback, they have shown the strength of the league's top teams, but today

The highlight of the game is not the unsuspicious inside line, but the outside game between the two teams. The fastest little man in NBA history, Allen Iverson, faced off against Wade and Mo Wen, the strongest outside doubles in the 2003 class."

Zhang Weiping crossed his hands and said expectantly.

"The 76ers believe that fans who have watched recent games will be familiar with it, because on Friday, the Rockets played against the 76ers. In the end, the Rockets won with a slight advantage of 1 point, which also ended the Rockets' previous three-game losing streak. And on Friday, the Rockets won with a slight advantage of 1 point.

In that game, Yao Ming played a key role and scored 20 points and 10 rebounds. Today we are looking forward to whether Mo Wen can give us the same wonderful performance." Sun Zhengping added next to him.

Heat starting lineup: Wade, Mo Wen, Rasual Butler, Haslem, O'Neal

76ers starting lineup: Iverson, Iguodala, Korver, Kenny Thomas, Dalembert.

If the 76ers' poor record last season was due to Allen Iverson's injury, then the 76ers' poor start to the season with 4 wins and 5 losses should be attributed to the incompetence of the management team.

Under the leadership of their new coach O'Brien, after the 76ers selected swingman Iguodala in the summer, they also have small forward Korver on the team, and signed the same short fourth position from the free market.

In the case of Kenny Thomas, the old but still able "making ends meet" big man Coleman was sent away from the Pistons in exchange for Collis, who also played small forward.

The reason of the 76ers general manager is also very "scientific", because Collis's playing time with the Pistons last season was short, but his efficiency was very high. His field goal percentage of nearly 50% per game was far higher than Cole's field goal percentage of only 41%.

Manqiang.

But they ignored the crucial defense.

Iverson is not without defense, but his height of 180cm and weight of 75kg destined him to be at a disadvantage on the defensive end. Coupled with Iverson's gambling-style defensive habit of stealing, it is easy to miss people. If you want to surround Iverson

When forming a team, interior defense is the most important.

But when recruiting in the summer, they didn't make a lot of efforts in this area.

Fortunately for the 76ers, O'Brien, who failed to recover from his "overdraft", did not continue his explosive performance in the paint in the first two games.

Uncle Mu's disciple, Dalembert, who is 30 kilograms fatter and lighter than O'Neal, seemed to be the "Fisherman Yuan Hua" today. He frequently caught sharks under the basket and defended O'Neal, making 1 of 5 shots and 1 of 2 free throws in the first quarter.

, only scored 3 points.

Wade, who wanted to get super statistics, got a lot of shooting opportunities in the first quarter. Unfortunately, he didn't warm up his hands before the game. Whether it was shooting or breakthrough layups, he was like a free TT. He gave himself up.

They were very defensive, shooting 1 of 7 in the first quarter, and only scored 5 points with free throws.

If Mo Wen hadn't used a few shots to hit two three-pointers on the outside using pick-and-rolls, the Heat might not have been able to score in double figures in a single quarter.

After the first quarter, the Heat's Big Three, plus Haslem's fast-break goal in the middle, only scored 16 points in total.

But it doesn't matter, Iverson will take action.

Facing the zone defense team set up by the Heat, Iverson was also frustrated. As long as it was the 76ers' offensive round, all Heat players would put Iverson in their sights and be ready to help defend against flanking attacks at any time.

He made 2 of 9 shots in the first quarter, 1 of 3 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. Iverson, who took up most of the 76ers' shots, only scored 7 points in a single quarter.

Iverson was working hard to distribute the ball, but the other players of the 76ers didn't play well either. Korver was interfered with several shots under Mo Wen's defense. The rookie Iguodala was still very motivated.

I wanted to taste the taste of shark meat, but O'Neal slapped the ball away unceremoniously. My body became unsteady, and my face was buried in O'Neal's creaking nest.

Sure enough, it was genuine shark meat, just fishy.

Fortunately, Kenny Thomas played his role and made 3 of 4 shots from the mid-range post-up, helping the 76ers score 6 points.

However, in the first quarter, the 76ers still led the Heat by 4 points thanks to sporadic scoring by several other players.

In the second quarter, Ouyang and Haslem took a rest, and the Heat replaced Da Zhi and Doriak. The 76ers replaced the under-performing Korver and the hard-working Dalembert, and replaced them with Mo.

Wen's old teammate Corliss and insider Mark Jackson.

Wade, who lost in the first quarter, did not lose his fighting spirit. With O'Brien out of the game, the team adopted a fast break strategy, which allowed him to take advantage of his speed.

Seeing Wade waving, Mo Wen thought about it, and seeing that the score difference was not big, he decided to give him a few more chances, passed the ball to Wade, and at the same time ran to one side to pull away.

After Wade and Dazhi played a pick-and-roll, they rushed inside.

After his wife and children were sent back to China, Dazhi devoted himself wholeheartedly to basketball. Under Mo Wen's guidance, he has recently gained a better and better understanding of the team's tactics and positioning, especially in blocking and screening.

I can't stand it, but I've already figured out how to execute it.

Iverson was blocked for half a step and could not catch up immediately. There was nothing he could do with Wade. The Mark Jackson replaced by the 76ers was much worse than Dalembert in protecting the frame. Wade bumped into Mark.

Jackson then threw the ball diagonally toward the backboard and scored.

In the 76ers' offensive round, after Iverson and his teammates pulled away, he used the classic "Yangguan triple stack" when facing Wade. After dribbling the ball under the crotch, he held the ball in his right hand and made a cross step forward with his left foot to the right.

After leaning over for a moment, he immediately retracted his feet and dribbled, switching hands. The ball was suspended in his left hand, followed by his left foot, stepped to the left, and his right foot wiped the ground and shook his shoulder. Finally, he took his left foot back again and pulled the ball to the right to complete the match against Wei.

A breakthrough in virtue.

Everyone knows that 90% of the time Iverson will go to the right, but there are very few people who don't fall for this trick.

Mo Wen met Iverson several times in the dungeon, and every time he felt that with his rich experience, he would not be fooled this time.

But after meeting him a few more times, Mo Wen realized that Iverson's fake action was not a suppression of consciousness but a blow to the physiological and neurological levels.

With high-level fake moves and Iverson's historical speed, as long as you seriously engage in defensive mode, it's impossible not to take advantage of it.

Doleak, who broke through Iverson and faced the Heat's inside attack, pulled the ball with his shoulders again. Without waiting for the people next to him to defend him, he shot directly from the mid-range and hit an open shot.

Maybe the referee felt that the scores of the two teams in the first quarter were a bit disappointing to the fans, so he tightened the penalty scale in this quarter. He called a few fouls and reduced the intensity of the defense.

Wade's subsequent breakthroughs were very efficient, finally bringing his shooting percentage back to a respectable level. However, Iverson also had a seizure, and his continuous breakthroughs and emergency-stop jump shots also made Wade dizzy, and he seemed to have no defense against him.

, I don’t know what I’m trying to do.

"I gave you a chance and you didn't use it!"

Seeing the score gradually widening, and Da Fan still frowning as if he didn't know what he was thinking, Mo Wen couldn't help but call a timeout and slapped Wade on the back of the head.
