Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

The next day is the game day between the Lakers and the 76ers.

The Lakers' 4/2 opening record in the new season is not very flashy. After all, today's opponent, the 76ers, has the same number of games and the same record. But anyone who watches today's game...compared to the Lakers' stable strength, fans want to watch it more. The 76ers' improvement in the new season.

The 76ers made the playoffs last season.

That playoff trip was 7 years away from their last one, but with the retirement of Moses Malone and Dr. J, and then Barkley leaving the 76ers in the 1991-92 season.

This team fell directly into the bottom quagmire that year.

Until now, with the signing of Philadelphia's son Allen Iverson, the 76ers have finally returned to the playoffs. What surprises Philadelphia fans even more this season is... Ben Wallace's rapid change in leadership of the team. Even the Celtics, known as the strongest team in the Eastern Conference, were unable to move.

Philadelphia fans never expected... They were both born in the 1996 draft. One was the hot first pick, and the other was a hidden gem in the undrafted draft.

This combination, which can't even be said to be poorly ranked, can be so powerful.

For Philadelphia fans, it goes without saying that Iverson has been very popular in recent seasons, and this season’s newly added Ben Wallace, it is difficult to interest people just by looking at the data, because several of the Lakers’ bench players There are really not many statistics in the season, but the reason why fans really get to know him is... As one of the players with the deepest label in the Lee family, he has an amazing gangster aura. In the first six games of the 76ers, he alone covered the inside. Defense, and with a 4/2 record at the start, Ben Wallace, who averaged 14 rebounds and 3 blocks per game, definitely made a contribution.

As for this one...

In addition to the competition between the old powerhouse Lakers and the new powerhouse 76ers, and the confrontation between two players of the same generation, Iverson and Kobe, the matchup between Ben Wallace and Li Shengli is the highlight, because there is already the No. 1 center in the Eastern Conference on the front foot. O'Neal was overthrown, and the Philadelphia fans who were on the back foot really wanted to see...the leader of the Lee team who dominated the Western Conference also suffered a defeat tonight.

…

A short training session before the game that afternoon.

The Lakers players felt strange because something was obviously wrong with Li Shengli, as if someone owed him money.

"What's wrong with Lee? I just talked to him and he ignored me?" Artest was a little confused.

"I don't know!" Kobe shook his head and said: "It seems that no one has messed with him these days, and he is not a stingy person, and he should never be like this. Maybe... someone tricked him. Money, otherwise there is no way to explain it, he is the stingiest person."

"Kobe, you shouldn't say that about him!" Crotty felt that Artest's expression was strange when he heard "stingy", and he could not accept anyone's evaluation of Li Shengli psychologically. He directly He opened his mouth to explain: "He is just more frugal, but he has never been stingy with us teammates."

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, okay? You get anxious when I talk about Lee!" Kobe knew he was serious as soon as he looked at Crotty, and Artest looked at Kobe and Crotty, touched his head and thought for a moment. .

"Let's not talk about it for now. I remember that Li was asked out by Ben Wallace last night. According to you, could it be that Ben Wallace cheated the boss of his money? Otherwise, he would not ignore it. Mine was fine before."

"Ben?" Crotty shook his head.

"Are you kidding me? This is simply impossible. I wouldn't do anything stupid." Kobe patted Artest on the shoulder and said, "Ron, please remember...this thing in front of you. John Crotty and Ben Wallace tonight, these two are crazy, don’t say anything bad about Lee or even joke in front of them.”

"That's enough for you. This is our respect for him. You can't understand it!"

"Okay, okay, I really won't say anything this time!" Kobe hugged Artest and said secretly behind Crotty's back: "Ron, look at Crotty, how are you? I'm right. Right? Li can do magic, they two have been brainwashed, you have to hold on!"

…

The Lakers' training continued as usual until Phil Jackson arranged the starting lineup before the game.

The main core of the starting lineup remains unchanged.

Artest is assigned to the small forward position in this game, because Artest has performed really well in recent games. Although he occasionally gets distracted and loses concentration during the game, his defensive skills are still enough. Even better than Fox and Horry, and more positive.

Li Shengli's starting partner is still Green, and Kobe's assistant in the backcourt has changed from Fisher in the previous games to Crotty in this game. The reason is the same as Artest... because of the 76ers' Iver Sen needs to be targeted, and Artest and Crotty both appear for this purpose.

After waiting for a while, it was time to play.

The 76ers' starting lineup reported to the technical table was Ben, Te'lon Hill, Larry Hughes, George Lynch, and Iverson.

Derrick Coleman, the two No. 1 picks on Iverson's team, has left the team for the Hornets, and now this lineup... is not weak, but apart from Iverson and the newly arrived Ben, there is not much prominent point.

…

When they met on the court, the players on both sides were quite friendly. After all, Ben was our former teammate, and Kobe was familiar with Iverson. But Ben felt an inexplicable murderous aura, and when he turned around, he saw Li Shengli's anger.

This...what's going on?

Ben ran to the midfield and waited for the jump ball. He didn't understand what happened to Li Shengli. However, the referee didn't care about this. He signaled both sides to prepare and immediately threw the ball into the sky. At the same time... Li Shengli suddenly threw the ball into the sky. The ball was given to Crotty at a fixed point, and he hit the frontcourt with a fierce shot.

No one could understand it in the first round.

There was no time to defend after the jump ball, because the 76ers did rush to their own backcourt in advance to defend and wait for the Lakers to attack. But the problem was that Li Shengli ran too fast, but Crotty didn't want to die. Seeing Li Shengli in place, No matter what, just pass the ball high.

Before the base was in place, Li Shengli soared into the air and dunked on Crotty's pass. In the process, he also hit Te'lon Hill, who was faster, so that his scalp went numb and he sat down. The outside world.

What's going on here?

Who did I offend by riding on a horse?

Te'lon Hill was beaten as soon as the game started. After being pulled up by Ben, everyone was confused, and Ben was also confused because Li Shengli was a little too violent today. After beating Te'lon Hill, he immediately returned to the defense. Went without saying a word.
