In Yang Rui's previous life, many people criticized Iverson for his low shooting percentage and low offensive efficiency, which made the Amys extremely indignant.

Well, it's not actually black, it is. Fortunately, Iverson has a sharp breakthrough and has always been among the best in free throws, which can cause damage to the defense, otherwise the efficiency value will be unreadable.

Five single-season scoring champions with the lowest shooting percentage in NBA history, 01-02, 39.8%? Iverson; 98-99, 41.2%? Iverson, 03-04, 41.7%? McGrady; 00-01, 42 % Iverson; 04-05, 42.4%? Iverson.

The five shooting percentages are the lowest in history. Iverson occupies four seats and rarely shoots three-pointers. In Yang Rui's previous life, in the 2016-17 season, Westbrook was desperate for a triple-double, and his shooting percentage was 42.6%.

However, the head coach of the 76ers is also responsible for this. Iverson is partnered with a group of blue-collar workers. He is double-teamed and can still win four scoring champions with difficult shots. No matter how low he is, it proves his strength. After arriving in the Nuggets, he faced fewer double-teams. He had already passed his peak, but his shooting percentage was over 45%.

Brown knew that Snow would not be able to play much role in the game at this time, so he simply replaced Aaron McGee as a substitute in advance, his defense was qualified, and his shooting was slightly better. When the inside line comes out to double-team, Iverson's pass can also create opportunities for the air-cut Ratliff.

Yang Rui didn't make substitutions, he only emphasized offense, and his defensive strategy remained unchanged. Iverson defended from a long distance and double-teamed near the penalty area.

The game continued, Iverson opened up, made two mid-range shots and a three-pointer, and assisted George Lynch to make a three-pointer. This small power forward has range.

The Raptors have a more aggressive offense, and their main tactics are simple pick-and-rolls.

With 4 minutes and 33 seconds left, McGrady got rid of Owens with the ball after a pick-and-roll, and made a jump shot from the horn position.

At 3 minutes and 58 seconds, McGrady broke through after the pick-and-roll, and the wonderful bottom line tie bar avoided Ratliff's block, and scored a backhand layup. Veteran Owens is slower than McGrady on defense alone. The 76ers must switch defenses after the pick-and-roll, otherwise they will definitely be free.

At 2 minutes and 16 seconds, McGrady forced a breakthrough layup in the counterattack and called Owens a foul, scoring 2+1.

Towards the end, McGrady performed the final attack, pressing the time to hit a three-pointer in the middle. Facing the 196cm McGee, his advantage is more obvious.

In a single quarter, McGrady made 6 of 8 shots, 3 of 4 three-pointers, 1 of 1 free throws, scored 16 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists; Carter didn't take many shots, made 2 of 2 free throws, scored 6 points and 3 assists .

Rookie Jumaine played 8 minutes,

Scored two air cuts, added a three-pointer, scored 7 points and 1 rebound, and his performance was eye-catching.

O'Neal scored 4 points, Detref 2 points, and the Raptors scored all goals in the first quarter, leading 35 to 19 in a single quarter.

Except for Iverson who scored 11 points for the 76ers, the others didn't play much on the offensive end.

In the second quarter, Yang Rui sent a three-back combination of Billups, Curry, and Hornacek, with Detref and Cato inside.

There are four three-point points on the field. Billups attacks with the ball in the middle, and Cato and Detref cover on both sides to help Curry and Hornacek run along the three-point line to catch the ball and shoot.

Cato cuts to the basket after the screen, and Detref waits outside the pass to prepare for the shot.

On the defensive end, the Raptors shrank their formation. The 76ers outside McGee, Hughes, and Drew Barry couldn't start the situation. Center Geiger was also resisted by Cato.

The 76ers have too few shooting points. McGee, who is the best shot off the bench, only made 42% of his shots, 36.4% of his three-pointers, and only 0.5 shots per game.

Since Zhu Meiyin did not join the 76ers, they are slightly weaker than Yang Rui's previous life, and there are fewer people playing on the bench.

In particular, there is a lack of small forwards. Drew is 196cm tall. He was only a rookie at the end of the second round in 1996. He wandered four teams as a marginal player. His offense and defense are average, and his body is not outstanding.

Iverson only rested for 3 minutes before returning to the court to bring a substitute, but he still couldn't lead the team to recover the score. When the Raptors came back from the starting lineup, the 76ers couldn't stand it anymore.

Brown is a person who doesn't like lineup rotation very much, and the starting time is very long, which is similar to Van Gundy's coaching style. A total of three of the 76ers scored in double figures last season, which shows how miserable the offense is.

In order to strengthen the offense, the 76ers will let Iverson, Hughes, and McGee play together for a certain period of time to play a quick counterattack, and this game is no exception.

The Raptors sent a swingman lineup, and only Billups stayed on the court to continue playing. Carter, McGrady, Jumaine, and O'Neal were present.

If you run into an ordinary big man, the 76ers' outside trio can play a fast break. If they are lucky, they will overtake the score. However, the Raptors' swingman and guard are not at a disadvantage in terms of speed. The advantage is not obvious, and the counterattack has become a mess. , and the hit rate is not high.

In the positional battle, the Raptors had the upper hand and opened a direct one-on-one match. Neither McGee nor Hughes could guard McGrady.

On the sidelines, Thibodeau has long been used to Yang Rui's strange tricks. D'Antoni was shocked and convinced.

Before the game, he was worried that Yang Rui would give up the fast break, give McGrady unlimited shots, and let Christie rest in rotation. He looked down on the 76ers, and it might be bad luck.

Now, he found that Yang Rui's eyes were vicious, and no one of the 76ers could defend McGrady alone. McGrady doesn't need to cover. Everyone has an advantage in singles with the ball. The faster ones are not as tall as him, and the taller ones are not as fast as him.

Even Ratliff, the best defensive player of the 76ers, can rely on technology to break through after switching defenses. He has a terrifying first step and incredible sensitivity among big men.

Moreover, there are three such strongman Raptors who are good at singles. The 76ers guard against McGrady, and Carter and O'Neal, who formed a triangle, immediately showed their power.

When Iverson is surrounded by teammates who can shoot, the Raptors will not double-team him and let Billups defend alone. So Billups was tortured to death in the third quarter, but the Raptors kept leading.

In terms of personal ability, Billups can't keep up with Iverson when he flatters him. He can't break through the storm, attract double-teams, and his key abilities are not good.

However, Billups is not worse than his role in the team system and his grasp of rhythm, or even better.

In the third season of his career, under the guidance of Yang Rui, Billups already knows when to play fast and when to play slow, how to use his range to attract the defense, and use his body to hit the opponent's small guard or inside. Although his overall shooting percentage is not high, his scoring efficiency ranks among the best among point guards.

Because Billups is selfless enough, even if he is not in good form, he will not take too many random shots and disrupt the team's offensive rhythm, and the negative impact on the team is limited.

What about Iverson? His main energy is on the offensive end. He can play and cooperate in the first three quarters, attracting double-teams to pass the ball to his teammates. At the end of the quarter, he is still behind by a large score. He began to rely entirely on his personal ability to attack.

He kept dodging and moving, turned around and retreated, etc., forced shots under the interference of others, and layups interspersed between people.

Iverson's scoring efficiency is really not high, and his shot selection is too bad. On the other hand, McGrady, who has unlimited shooting rights for the Raptors, has a much higher shooting percentage.

With 4 minutes left in the final quarter, the Raptors led 110 to 85, and the game entered garbage time.

McGrady was replaced, played 34 minutes, made 17 of 28 shots, 4 of 9 three-pointers, 7 of 9 free throws, scored 45 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

Iverson was also replaced, 12 of 25 shots, 4 of 5 three-pointers, 2 of 3 free throws, 30 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals.
