This Forward is Not Serious

After the first quarter, the score was 30 to 27, with the Thunder slightly ahead.

Both sides have entered a large area of ​​​​rotation.

It was a real game in the first half, but after all, it was just a preseason game, and it was still mainly about running-in and inspection.

Especially for the Nets, it can be said that the substitutes are basically all newly signed in the summer. How many people will be rotated and who will be included in the rotation are issues worth discussing.

At this time, the Thunder lineup was on the court: Reggie Jackson, Kevin Martin, McGeege, Nick Collison, and Thabeet.

Nets lineup: Iverson, Butler, Kirilenko, Battier, Chris Anderson.

Billups and Brand were not on the team's activated roster tonight.

It's not that they've been squeezed out of the rotation, quite the contrary, they've already secured a spot in the rotation.

Both of these two are very suitable for pick-and-roll tactics.

What is being arranged to play now is what Sloan needs to examine.

The Nets' offense still uses pick-and-roll tactics.

Iverson took advantage of Battier's pick-and-roll and made a fierce move directly into the Thunder's inside.

Collison failed to keep up, and Iverson jumped up and wiped the board diagonally.

"boom!"

The ball fell into the net after hitting the board!

He was too old and rushed too hard to stop the car. After Iverson took action, he fell to the ground and slid out of the baseline.

After seeing the ball go in, he stood up suddenly with one hand on the ground.

The fans cheered loudly at the scene, and some fans' eyes were full of memories.

Thirty-seven-year-old Iverson seems to still be able to play!

Looking back, Jackson directly confronted Iverson.

The NBA has no mercy. This kind of super giant who is about to retire is a golden stepping stone that is rare to find.

The fact is indeed cruel, Iverson can't keep up with Jackson's speed.

Jackson drove through Iverson for a layup.

But the moment he took action, he saw two figures appear in front of him, one up and one down.

Below is AK·I am a ruthless person·Kirilenko, above is Birdman·The sky is my territory·Anderson.

"boom!"

Anderson directly treated Jackson to a hot pot meal!

And Battier immediately saved the ball and grabbed the ball on the floor, and then threw it directly to Butler who was already charging forward.

The Nets played a fast break, and Butler rushed to the frontcourt and dunked with both hands.

A defensive round on the bench was filled with passion!

"The defense of this Nets lineup is a bit strong."

Su Qun also sighed with hindsight.

Zhang Weiping looked towards the Nets half court as he listened.

Butler, Kirilenko, Battier, Anderson...there are indeed hundreds of millions of points.

Except if Butler were a few years younger, he would still be in the two best defensive lineups.

But even if he is a bit older, he is still above the league average in terms of defense.

"Hey, don't tell me, this lineup is very suitable. Does it look like the 76ers before?"

After all, Zhang Weiping is an older generation commentator, and some familiar scenes immediately came to mind.

"It's really like that, and Iverson really has something that no one else can replace. He can score points."

Su Qun nodded.

Before he finished speaking, there was a "dang" sound, and Iverson's another breakthrough ended in a blacksmith.

This is not poisonous milk, but McGehee squeezed through Anderson's pick-and-roll defense and reached the basket.

His hands were really long and big, and they almost covered Iverson.

The Thunder quickly launched a defensive counterattack, but when Jackson advanced to the frontcourt, he saw that the Nets had already defended four from five.

This defensive awareness and speed are a bit rogue!

The ball was in Martin's hands. Martin used Collison's pick-and-roll to break through to the basket, and then took a shot after confronting Battier, causing the latter to foul.

Shane was already very alert and had to hide, but after all, Martin was a "generation of eyesight", so he couldn't completely avoid it by just hiding.

Martin stepped to the free throw line and made two solid free throws.

The Nets attacked the frontcourt, Butler broke through Martin with the ball, and squeezed Martin away with a confrontation.

However, he was not very experienced. He took action directly after the confrontation and did not notice that McGeege came back to help defend.

"boom!"

McGee's help sent the ball flying out of the court!

The Thunder's bench was abuzz.

Even Durant waved the towel vigorously and stood up to cheer for his younger brother.

In terms of defense alone, even as a rookie, McGeege is already above the NBA average.

If he can develop his offense again, he will have a bright future.

And when he comes to the Thunder, he doesn't have to worry about developing offense, which may make his career different from what it was in history.

The Nets ball in the frontcourt, Iverson received the ball and made a direct mid-range jumper!

He is getting older and more experienced. The ball just now made him realize that he was not as good as before, so he directly changed his mode to attack from the outside.

This choice was a bit unexpected by Jackson, and it was too late for him to pounce again.

"Uh-huh!"

Iverson's shot was also very smooth, and the basketball fell against the net.

In the second quarter, Iverson scored 4 points in a row!

This immediately made the fans at the scene excited.

The four top shooting guards in the past can't survive the time. Except for Kobe Bryant who is still chasing the championship, Carter can only be the sixth and seventh man now, McGrady is chasing the championship with a basic salary, and Iverson has already retired.

The youth of many old fans also came to an end, but Iverson's sudden move awakened their youthful genes!

Martin caught the ball without the ball and saw Battier, who had switched defenses, make a fake shot and then took another trademark tilted shot.

"Uh-huh!"

In terms of scoring alone, he is more mature than Harden!

Some fans at the scene couldn't help but stand up.

This substitute transition period is no less exciting than the starting period!

At this time, Coach Brooks also stood up and stood on the sidelines waving.

The Thunder are increasing their defensive intensity.

In terms of defensive counterattack, their foundation is still defense.

The Nets lineup lacks offensive points. Battier catches the ball and shoots three-pointers after picking and rolling.

"Dang!"

Off the mark!

But Anderson rose into the air and grabbed the offensive rebound over Thabeet's head!

There is a reason why Thabeet was the No. 2 pick in 2009 and started wandering before his rookie contract was completed.

His positioning and reaction speed are really poor.

After Anderson got the rebound, he quickly passed it to Kirilenko. Kirilenko saw the defense come up and threw it to Iverson on the far end.

Iverson received the ball from outside the three-point line and took a three-point shot.

Seeing Iverson taking another shot, some fans couldn't help but raise their hands to their chests in advance.

"Uh-huh!"

Really got in!

The scene burst into cheers instantly, with a large number of fans raising their hands in the air, and the excitement on their faces overflowed all over the screen!

Iverson has already scored 7 points in this quarter!

In 2012, they can still see Iverson score 7 points in a row!

Lin Ying also stood up and applauded Iverson, with a look of excitement on his face.

Although Iverson showed good form during team training, competition and training are two different things.

Especially since Iverson retired due to a knee injury and has not played in an NBA-level game for a year.

I didn’t expect this to be a surprise!

Iverson also saw Lin Ying and smiled back at him.

Martin repeated his old trick, but this time after he passed Battier, Kirilenko directly followed him.

He went to the basket to foul Kirilenko, but it was just a moment when he pulled the ball up.

"Snapped!"

The ball is gone!

Butler shrank back at some point, and quickly cut the ball in his hand!

The defenses are blocked one after another. It is really not easy to score!

And from the defensive enthusiasm in this round, we can actually see a potential internal environment of the Nets.

There are more people playing ball, so the volume will naturally increase!

Even if the two rookies are excluded, the Nets still have eight substitutes.

But the average team rotation is 8 to 9 people, and the maximum is 10 people.

Billups and Brand have locked two rotation spots, so the remaining Iverson, Butler, Kirilenko, Battier, Anderson, and Bogans will have to compete for the remaining three rotation spots, which is quite a lot. fierce.

The Nets played a fast break, and Butler stepped on the small motor and ran to the frontcourt to score a layup.

34 to 39!

The Nets are now 5 points ahead!

"Defend! Defend!"

The fans at the scene were completely excited and cheered for the Nets in unison.

"Dang!"

Reggie Jackson's breakthrough layup missed!

The Nets are going strong!

Almost all the fans at the scene had stood up.

Iverson advanced to the frontcourt and the Nets continued to use pick-and-roll tactics.

This time Kirilenko waited for a long time with the ball, and then threw the ball away after Iverson ran outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the left.

Iverson caught the ball and shot again.

At this moment, the fans' hearts suddenly rose to their throats.

Can we still get in?

This is 7 points in a row. If he scores again, it will really make people think that Iverson is 27 instead of 37!

"Uh-huh!"

There was a crisp sound.

Iverson scores another three-pointer!

He scored 10 points in a row!

This is really a hot hand!

The fans at the scene were completely crazy.

The excitement was very similar to the scene when I saw the Chinese men's basketball team win the Olympic championship.

And some of the older fans looked red in the face, as if they were drunk.

It's not easy to get emotional as you get older, and only this feeling of dreaming back to youth can make them so excited.

Lin Ying not only stood up and applauded this time, but also shouted along.

Iverson's performance will earn him a place on the Nets!

And, that's not the end yet!

Iverson's consecutive scoring made the Nets more morale on the court, and they defended another wave of Thunder attacks.

When the Nets advanced to the frontcourt again, everyone pulled away to beat him, and the live cameras were also focused on him.

Reggie Jackson in front of him lowered his weight and clapped his hands in front of his chest to cheer himself up.

He is also very motivated. In the past, he had no chance to play because of Harden's presence. This season, after Harden left the team, he held his breath and wanted to prove himself.

How could he lose to an old guy who was about to retire!

Iverson did not use tactics this time and directly broke through Jackson.

His change of direction was still very quick, and he got rid of Jackson in one go.

But when he broke in further, Jackson was already blocking his defensive line again.

There is no way, after all, the legs are 37 years old. They can shoot from the outside, but the speed is much worse when they really stand up.

However, Iverson's experience came into play in the end. He saw that Jackson was stronger and took the initiative to fight.

"beep!"

The referee's whistle blew and Jackson was called blocked!

Of course, Iverson himself was also ejected by the reaction.

But he threw the ball just before it went out.

This was an absolutely difficult shot, and the ball hit the backboard directly.

Then, the ball bounced and fell into the net!

2+1!

"AI! AI!"

There was a moment of silence in the arena, and then it was filled with cheers like a roaring tsunami.

Even the live broadcast camera seemed to be shaken by this overwhelming sound.

Although this period is not as amazing as Tracy McGrady's 35 seconds and 13 minutes, it is magical enough!

Absolutely no one thought that Iverson could still play like this!

Including Lin Ying.

Lin Ying also shouted AI with other teammates at this time.

Today's pre-season game is really profitable!

I’ve seen the Nets’ pick-and-roll tactics, the Texas Twins, Westbrook’s Scimitar, and now Iverson’s dream of returning to the top.

This ticket is really worth buying!

And the fans are excited.

When Iverson stood on the free throw line, I didn't know who took the lead, but the whole audience shouted MVP.

This is to make up for all the lost youth in one breath tonight!

Amid the cheers of the fans, Iverson also took extra penalties!

He has already scored 13 points in this quarter!

At this time, both sides have begun to rotate.

Sloan also showed his flexible side by keeping Iverson on the court.

He is stubborn, but not rigid.

This has whetted the fans' appetite even higher.

Lin Ying and Iverson compete on the same stage again after many years?

This sounds very youthful!

When Durant came back, he singled out Johnson and hit a pull-up without dribbling, so he made a hard pull.

36 to 45.

The score difference returned to single digits again.

Iverson and Lin Ying played a two-man pick-and-roll, but what seemed like a breakthrough turned out to be a counterattack to Lin Ying.

Unfortunately, Iverson had told the Thunder in the previous rounds that his current breakthrough was not good, so this pass was perfectly predicted by Sefolosha, and he directly reached out and stole it away.

During the Thunder's fast break, Westbrook once again caught the ball and ran forward.

He charged like sparks and lightning.

Soaring into the sky, the full moon scimitar.

But this time he was unable to reproduce the violent dunk.

Because the moment he took action, Lin Ying's hand also reached him!

The moment Westbrook stole the ball, he followed suit.

Although the absolute speed is not as fast as Westbrook, after all, Westbrook is a fast break with the ball.

"boom!"

The fans only saw two figures quickly rushing to the frontcourt, and then Lin Ying used his long arms to catch Westbrook's dunk and slap him onto the backboard!

"Bang!"

Then Westbrook dunked a lone shot!

Lin Ying grabbed the defensive rebound and turned around to counter the Thunder's fast break.

When Westbrook was on a fast break, others were also running back. This transition between offense and defense happened a little too quickly, and many people didn't react.

When Lin Ying dribbled the ball past half-court, the backcourt became the frontcourt, and there were only two or three people on both sides.

It was at this time that Lin Ying made a choice. He rushed to the free throw line and then threw the ball directly to the side.

That's the direction of Iverson!

Iverson's fast break is fast!

It's a lob.

Iverson jumped up, clicked the ball in the air, and then sent the ball into the basket.

His current body allows him to dunk alley-oops, which would be difficult for others.

But the place was filled with cheers again.

The long-lost Lin Ying-Iverson connection!

Thanks to Aina and longso for the tip~
