Chapter 60 `Answer`Iverson
Those who really like basketball must not be unfamiliar with the name Iverson. He is the shortest champion in NBA history. No matter what difficulties Iverson faces, no matter how strong he is, he has never been afraid in his life.
Iverson, a newcomer to the league, has not given Jordan the respect he deserves in front of Jordan. He has never been an idol. He is only a true self.
Iverson is a child who came out of the slums. He played rugby in his early days, but for various reasons, he finally embarked on the road of basketball, which was his only choice.
Iverson was once in prison. He was originally sentenced to five years in prison, but in the end, he was released from prison after only four months. Before he was imprisoned, Iverson's future was very bright, but he was still a well-known person in the local area.
However, after being imprisoned, everything became confused. The university, which was going to reach out like Iverson throwing an olive branch, retreated one after another.
Only Georgetown University finally chose Iverson, and George Town coach John Thompson treated Iverson like a father to a child.
In the end, because Iverson went to the draft early, the relationship with Thompson was no longer so good, but Iverson also had his reasons. Iverson was an affectionate person. Her mother's name was Annie. She gave birth to Iverson at the age of 15. No matter how Anne worked, she worked for up to 18 hours a day. But I still can't feed the whole family.
Iverson also has two younger sisters who have been sick all year round. Due to their environment, they have never gotten better. The three words of the place where you live, the slum, must know the extent of the difference in the environment.
For the sake of this family, Iverson finally chose to participate in the draft in advance to get rid of his birth class.
1996 was recognized as a draft year. That year, Iverson participated in the draft and was selected by Philadelphia's 76ers with the first pick in the first round, thus becoming the shortest champion in NBA history.
After entering this league, Iverson's performance has always been excellent, leading 76 people to become regulars of the playoffs, but he has never led the team to win the championship once. He has always been a lonely fighter. There are no strong teammates around him to help him. Jordan also has Pippen Rodman, and Kobe Bryant There is also a big shark O'Neal escorting him.
Iverson has won countless honors, but there is no championship and the honor of the most valuable player in the finals. This is Iverson's biggest regret so far, and Iverson is not in Philadelphia now. First, he was traded to the Nuggets, and then he was traded to the Pistons in this year's off-season.
And the Cavaliers' opponent today is Iverson's team Detroit Pistons. The highlights of this game are undoubtedly between Huang Jun and Iverson. Both of them are excellent defenders, but they are both small, but in terms of height, Iverson is still a little short of Huang Jun, not as tall as Huang Jun.
For the upcoming opponent, Iverson. Huang Jun admired him very much. Although Iverson was already going downhill, or it should be said that the injury made Iverson go downhill. It can be said that it has become Iverson's daily life to fight with injuries. He is such a strong person who has never bowed down to anything. Whether it is an injury or a strong opponent, he has always He stood up to his weak but great body.
"Huang, for tonight's opponent Ai, what do you think?" He said to Huang Jun, who was ready to enter, in the passage of the locker room.
Huang Jun didn't even want to go back to "Do you know why I chose No. 3 for my jersey?" Because I want to be a strong player like Iverson, so that no matter what difficulties I face, what kind of opponent will never give in and give up. Maybe he is no longer at his peak, but in my heart, he will always be the admirable little man.
"Well done, well said, Huang, I believe you will become another Iverson player, or you will grow into a stronger player than Iverson. You are all small, but no one dares to underestimate you," James said this time.
"Ha ha, in Iverson's words, I just want to be myself, not another him." After saying that, Huang Jun ran from the passage to the court. While running, he looked up at Iverson, who had already entered the field over there. At this time, Huang Jun's eyes were very firm. That was his former idol, or now, although it was an idol. But Huang Jun never thought that he was another Iverson.
Iverson felt a look at him, turned his head to the direction of this look, and looked at the player who was also a small man. Although Iverson did not see that he was looking at him, his heart told himself that the person who just looked at him was this little man.
Looking at Huang Jun, who trotted in from the passage of the stadium, Iverson couldn't help smiling. No one knew the meaning of his smile.
Huang Jun also felt that someone was staring at him, but he didn't look for a goal, because he already had the answer in his heart, that was the answer, Iverson.
"Answer, let's see who the answer to this game belongs to. Will it be yours or mine?" Huang Jun couldn't help thinking that Huang Jun's fighting spirit burst out in an instant.
This fighting spirit was so strong that everyone at the scene felt it, and Iverson, who was also on the other side, also felt it. He knew that this fighting spirit was brought to him by the boy, and then Iverson's fighting spirit also burst out. Iverson's fighting spirit completely overwhelmed Huang Jun in terms of strength and intensity. The next moment, Huang Jun's fighting spirit was broken.
After all, Huang Jun is just a rookie. In terms of fighting spirit, he is obviously not as good as Iverson who has been fighting on the basketball battlefield for many years. Now Iverson is a god of war, and Huang Jun is just a soldier who has just joined the army. It is completely beyond his ability to compete with Iverson. Although Iverson is already going downhill, It's the spirit of fighting, but it has never passed by, but is advancing day by day.
Iverson did not look down on him because of this, but praised Huang Jun a little in his heart. You know, this is the first time Iverson has seen Huang Jun. He has also seen Huang Jun's recent games. Naturally, he knows Huang Jun's strength. In his eyes, the strong are respected, and he also feels that Huang Jun's personality is a little similar to him.
Iverson is now looking forward to the position with Huang Jun. He wants to see which is stronger or weaker than his own years.
Huang Jun naturally did not look for Iverson, but practiced warm-up at his half, and so did Iverson.
"Kenny, do you think this game is a direct match for small people? What about direct dialogue? Barkley looked at Kenny Smith and said.
"The opposition between the two of them must be very interesting, but now Iverson and Huang Jun, alas, although there will never be fairness and unfairness on the basketball court, I still want to say that the current Iverson and the younger Huang Jun are in the opposite position, which is an unfair comparison. You can only watch their game. Wonderful. The game. But you can't evaluate which of them is stronger or weaker, because Iverson is already going downhill, and Huang's journey has just started," Kenny Smith said.
Originally, Smith wanted to take a sip of water before saying it, but he was directly robbed by the unscrambling Barkley.
"It's true, but I believe they will bring you a wonderful game. Iverson is still the Iverson. Anyway, he is a great player who is sure to enter the Hall of Fame. Can Iverson defeat Huang Jun, who has just entered his career, in this game? I think everyone will say that Iverson is old. Obviously, he is not Huang's opponent in speed, right? Barkley continued, "Maybe, but I believe Iverson is still the player who will always bring us a miracle or an answer."
In fact, Iverson's nickname "Answer" does not come from basketball, but from his life and his brothers and friends.
He brings about 20,000 dollars in cash with him every day. As long as his friends ask for it, he will hand it to him without hesitation, so Iverson is an affectionate person.
Kenny Smith looked at Barkley's partner and nodded helplessly, agreeing with Barkley's words.
It's a pity for Chinese fans that the game was not broadcast live on Chinese TV, but there is a live video broadcast on the Internet, which is also a comfort to Chinese fans. The reason why it is not broadcast is that both the Rockets and the Nets have games, which are occupied by these two teams, and Huang Jun is obviously regarded as low.
But even if Huang Jun knows, he won't care. How to choose the live broadcast is their business. Except for his family and basketball, Huang Jun won't care about those boring things.
And the game is about to start. Both sides are ready to jump the ball in the middle line, and the game is played at the Cavaliers' home court. This is good news for the knights.
Iverson was traded to the Pistons, and because the Pistons had already worn No. 3, Ai finally chose the No. 1 jersey, which was also the first time he put on the No. 1 jersey in his career. It can be said that it was the first jersey other than No. 3. It can be seen from here that Iverson is no longer the Iverson at the beginning, otherwise it would not Give the jersey to Iverson?
Pistons' starting lineup: point guard Alan Iverson, scoring Richard Hamilton, small forward Prince, former Antonio McDace, center Rashid Wallace.
Although McDyce wanted to buy out the contract, the Pistons refused in the end. Originally, McDyce was very angry and even wanted to be passive, but finally agreed to the Pistons under Iverson's persuasion.
Is this the butterfly effect of Huang Jun after entering the NBA?
There is no change in the lineup of the Cavaliers. The starting lineup is still composed of Huang Jun, Battier, James, Landry and Ilgosca.
(I have something to do these days, so the update will be earlier or later, and Xiao Luo will not break the update.)
