Chapter 202 [1 game, 1 dream]

Of course, Larry Brown can't always arrange for Iverson, Snow and McGrady to match up, but as long as they match up, McGrady can definitely get shots easily.

He played against Iverson at 205cm and 183cm, which was a head higher.

Snow is only 191cm tall and is a point guard. McGrady doesn't need to break through, as long as the shooting touch is guaranteed. He not only knows how to pull up, but also can play singles with his back, turn around and shoot. If no one is double-teaming, he has absolute confidence to blow up the 76ers outside.

He can despise all interference from point guards. The two brothers practiced against each other in the summer, and Carter couldn't block McGrady unless he took off early.

Yang Rui said with a smile: "Now find a sparring coach to train jump shots. At night, you play point guard and have unlimited shot rights. Vince will let him pass the ball to you. I hope you can play the best statistics of your career."

"Yes, coach!"

McGrady was excited to find a sparring partner to practice alone. This season he is in a contract year, and his good statistics are related to the size of his next contract. He didn't have much playing time before, and he was having a headache.

Like countless Chinese fans in his previous life, Yang Rui liked Iverson, the short scoring champion. He watched countless 76ers games. He knew Iverson's strengths and weaknesses.

The advantages of Iverson are his speed, technology, fearless spirit, super desire to win, and the resonance that his height brings to fans. However, none of these advantages can conceal the fact that he is a defensive black hole.

That’s right, even in Yang Rui’s previous life, Iverson averaged more than 2 steals per game in 10 seasons, averaged more than 2.1 steals per game in 9 consecutive seasons, and won the steals king for 3 consecutive seasons. His defense is also very bad, very bad .

Iverson's defensive method is to gamble on steals. This kind of defense has won him beautiful steal data. It doesn't work if you don't defend yourself like this, he is too thin.

Usually Larry Brown lets Eric Snow, a defensive blue-collar with poor shooting, just to make up for Iverson's lack of defense and let Snow guard the opponent's main scorer.

If the Raptors had a five-man formation, who would Iverson guard against? Either Carter or McGrady. Yang Rui intends to shoot the 76ers directly and use the simplest method to break Brown's defensive system.

Brown is good at pseudo-zone defense, good at fast break defense, players can change positions quickly on the outside, can resist people inside, and don't run tactics, which is what pulls Brown to the rhythm of the Raptors.

X**D, the Raptors are definitely better than the 76ers.

Yang Rui has never been under pressure to send out surprise soldiers.

Just do what you say, although he retains his memory, the dominant thinking is the rebirth. For him, the NBA is a place to play B, a game and a dream.

In this dreamlike life, of course he can do whatever he wants.

To continue to increase the weight of Carter and McGrady in the president's heart, stepping on Iverson's position is a shortcut, and he will not be polite. This is related to the home whistle and star whistle of the playoffs.

Yang Rui talked to Carter, but only reduced his shots in a game, so he was naturally willing to help his cousin collect statistics.

Yang Rui made it very clear that whether the main attack depends on the defensive position of the 76ers. If Carter is facing Iverson, you don't have to be polite, just single-handedly shoot.

Christie and Miller will take turns off directly, and this game will not be played. Players are used to Yang Rui's arrangement of letting players take vacations.

Christie is healthy, but he struggles against speed guards like Iverson, and his three-pointers are not as good as Hornacek.

Miller bumped his knee on the court, it was not a big problem, Yang Rui still decided to let him rest. He is very optimistic about Miller, do not want him to take any risks.

On the 76ers side, Brown gave lessons to the players after training, and wanted to win this game even more.

The team's poor record of 2 wins and 4 losses is one aspect. On the other hand, Brown particularly hates Yang Rui, or in other words, he hates all mavericks, including Iverson, who is always dressed in hip-hop and likes to miss training.

However, he must rely on Iverson, give him enough playing time, and help him play 100% of his combat effectiveness, because as long as Iverson participates in the game, all the arenas will be full, even if those fans are supporters. His home team also appreciates Iverson very much.

If it was Yang Rui, she would definitely not be depressed. Why let yourself live so uncomfortable? Just coaching in the NCAA, why come to the NBA.

Brown will not make such a simple decision. He is a entangled person. He likes to use his old-fashioned thinking to regulate everyone. He wants to change the other party and thinks it is correct.

Therefore, although Brown has the ability to play a bad hand, in Yang Rui's previous life, he changed 7 teams, and almost fell out with the management every time, and broke up unhappy.

Brown instilled the concept of defense, asking the players to guard against the Raptors' major offensive points, how to guard against pick-and-rolls, and how to change pitchers in a timely manner. He talked dryly for more than half an hour before he put these people back. He was still not at ease. .

He hated Yang Rui's casualness and arrogance, but he had to admit that the talents of the Raptors group of young people were too terrifying. Under the leadership of Yang Rui, the Raptors are a super strong team.

On the evening of the 14th, the Raptors continued to be full at home. MSG TV broadcast live, the narrators are Mike Breen and Walter Frazier.

When the players warmed up, Breen praised the Raptors. "I like to comment on the Raptors game the most. They play very passionately and the players have strong personal abilities. Since the start of the game, there has only been one game where the score was less than 120."

Fraser said with a smile: "There will be another slam dunk contest this year during Star Weekend. Fans must be looking forward to seeing Carter's performance."

Brin said: "Carter was relatively low-key in college. North Carolina's number one star was Jamison. Now it seems that the North Carolina coach failed to give him enough space to show himself. He is better than Jamison."

The game is about to start, and the Raptors are eye-catching. McGrady, Carter, Jumaine-Jones, Detref, O'Neal.

Small ball tactics, four swingmen, the rookie returned.

Brin said with a smile: "Jerry Yang started experimenting again today. The shortest Carter is 198cm, and they are all forwards. What is this for?"

Fraser wondered: "They are all big men, how can they defend against Iverson?"

Yang Rui didn't want to prevent Iverson at all, he just wanted to make the star score more fiercely. It doesn't matter if Iverson scored 60 points, if he defended everyone else, he still won.

He just has this confidence, because Iverson scored 60 points in his career, which was obtained by playing the Magic. In that game, he made 24 of 27 free throws from the free throw line, tying Willie Burton's free throw record in 1994.

The Raptors' defensive system is mainly shrinking. Block the penalty area and try to let Iverson shoot mid-to-long distances. Big men must do better in interference.

Five 76ers: Iverson, Snow, Billy Owens, George Lynch, Ratliff.

Four are defensive blue-collars. The tallest Ratliff is 208cm tall and weighs 102kg. He is good at blocking shots. The two forwards are both 203cm tall and weigh 100kg. They are super mobile and good at defending against pick-and-rolls.

Larry Brown is a top master in defense and controlling the rhythm of the game. There is always a way to lower the opponent's shooting rate, and then win with a slightly better offense. As far as this year's 76ers are with this shabby lineup, Yang Rui will not coach no matter how much money they give.

The two sides jumped the ball, Ratliff's jumping ability was amazing, and his prediction was accurate, and he defeated O'Neal. Snow received the ball and immediately passed it to Iverson.

Iverson didn't wait for the defense to fall, suddenly accelerated to get rid of McGrady, lowered his center of gravity and forcibly passed Detref, and quickly picked the basket to score. 0 to 2.

He is so fast!
