After the warm-up, the members of the 76ers came to Larry Brown and waited for the head coach's instructions.
"Iverson, Snott, Elon, Hilsio, Ratliff, Dikambe Mutumbo! The five of you will be the starting lineup of the team!”
"We'll play according to our previous training. If we really can't open up the space, we'll open up the space and let Iverson play solo!”
Larry Brown made some simple arrangements, put away the tactical board, and walked toward the technical desk.
Larry Brown shook hands with Byron Scott in front of the technical desk and returned to his seat.
The Nets also sent out their starting lineup:
Stephen Marbrey, Lucios Harris, Kenyon, Martin Guise, Van Horne, Evan Esmeyer!
Esmeyer and Mutumbo came to the center circle for the jump ball. As soon as Iverson and Marbury came on, the two of them greeted each other in a friendly manner.
The court was like this. Two people spewed trash talk at each other on the court and constantly ridiculed their opponents in order to disturb their opponents 'minds and let themselves win the game.
After returning to the field, the two of them were very good friends again.
Li Fei sat off the field and watched the game seriously.
Mutumbo hit the ball into Iverson's hands, and Iverson quickly pushed forward.
In the face of Marbury's defense, Iverson was as calm as ever and easily controlled the basketball in his hand.
Marbury was also very experienced. He was very familiar with Iverson's playstyle. He directly raised his body and stuck close to Iverson, not giving Iverson any space to escape.
The two of them were the top defenders in the league, and their confrontation benefited Li Fei a lot.
Iverson suddenly sped up and passed Marbury as he snatched the ball.
Facing Kenyon Martin, who had come up to fill in the defense, Iverson directly used a small bow to shake Martin away and continued to rush towards the inside lane.
Leaning against the Nets 'Asmeyer, Iverson successfully scored the ball and even made Asmeyer commit a foul.
"Speed, rhythm, awareness, and perfect ball control! Shooting fearlessly was what a true shooting guard should do!”
Looking at Iverson, who was high-fiving his teammates on the field, Li Fei muttered a few words.
Li Fei had a clearer understanding of himself now that he could only shoot from an open position. He also had a goal and direction to move forward.
After the penalty, Iverson ran to the backfield and shouted at Li Fei,""Watch carefully. You should be able to learn a lot from this game!”
Li Fei nodded at Iverson seriously and said,""No problem!"
Marbury's playstyle was very similar to Iverson's.
The only difference was that Marbury was the point guard on the field.
Most of the time, Marbury's role was to connect with his teammates.
Through a screen and pick-and-roll, Marbury passed the ball to Martin after he formed a misplacement.
"How will Iverson defend when he's in a misplaced position?”
Li Fei looked at the situation on the field and said silently in his heart.
Iverson also taught Li Fei a good lesson, letting Li Fei know how a small man defended against a big player on the line.
He firmly defended Martin's right side and did not give Martin a chance to break through with the ball.
At the same time, Iverson lowered his center of gravity, ready to quickly interfere with Martin's dribble and disrupt his offensive rhythm when he dropped the ball.
Kenyon Martin, who was not afraid of tigers, chose to attack Iverson from the back.
In the first few dribbles, Iverson only used his body to block Martin, and he secretly remembered Martin's dribbling rhythm.
When Martin's hand touched the ball for the fifth time, Iverson kicked his leg and rushed out quickly.
"Be careful!"
Marbury shouted, but it was too late.
Iverson successfully intercepted the basketball in Martin's hands. He quickly rushed to the front court with the ball and made a layup.
At the start, Iverson scored five points in a row, catching the Nets off guard.
"That ball just now wasn't handled that way! You have to find your teammates first! After you fall to the low position, you can think about how to attack!”
Marbury walked up to Martin and patiently taught him.
Martin nodded repeatedly with an apologetic expression as he listened attentively to Marbury's teachings.
"Li Fei is much smarter than you! At least he wouldn't be so arrogant as to challenge someone he couldn't defeat!”
Iverson said as he walked past Martin.
This was clearly the fire of war directed at Li Fei! It was Iverson who saw Martin provoking Li Fei before the match and wanted to get back at him.
"Hey! Bro! I'll settle my own matters. You don't have to worry about me!”
Li Fei shouted at Iverson.
"I'm just teaching him how to be a human being! Should I tell him, welcome to the NBA?”
Iverson was so arrogant that he looked down on Martin.
"He's the top scorer, so you have to save some face!”
Li Fei and Iverson sang a double act.
"Top scorer? I'm also the top scorer!"
Iverson's words were domineering.
"Alright! Let's continue the competition!"
Li Fei shook his head helplessly and continued to watch the match.
Iverson also knew what he should do now, so he focused on the match.
For the rest of the match, Li Fei's gaze was locked onto Iverson and Marbury.
He memorized the technical characteristics of the two players. Every time Marbury defended against Iverson, Li Fei thought about what he would do if he was defending against Iverson. Would he do better than Marbury?
When Iverson was defending against Marbury, Li Fei also used the same method to go over it in his mind.
Ten minutes into the first period, Larry Brown called a time-out and called his players off the field.
The score was now 24 to 20, and the Sixers were trailing by four points.
"Snow and Scheer, come down and rest! Li Fei and George Lin Qi, go!"
Hearing Larry Brown's arrangement, Li Fei immediately nodded excitedly.
"Li Fei, you must be careful. You must reduce your dribbling! Your task is to find an empty space on the field and use your speed to get rid of the defensive players. After receiving the ball, you just need to shoot with ease!”
After Larry Brown arranged for Li Fei to go on stage, he did not forget to remind him patiently.
"I understand, coach!"
Li Fei said to Larry Brown very seriously.
"Don't worry! As long as you run out of the empty space, I guarantee that the ball will appear in front of you!”
Iverson patted Li Fei's shoulder.
Larry Brown had his own plans for doing so.
First, he wanted to see if Iverson and Li Fei could develop a good chemistry.
Secondly, he wanted to see how many shots Li Fei could guarantee in an official match.
