All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball Chapter 92: The “behaved” Su Feng
In September, as the players gradually recovered their shen state (cai), Davis also began to shift the training content to tactics.
The first is defensive tactics. After all, defense is the core topic surrounding the entire 90s.
At this time, the NBA does not allow regional defenses, but in fact, "counterfeit defenses" have begun to be widely used by teams.
Su Feng's previous life, the Bulls and Jazz's two-year imperial city PK, the two teams restricted each other through rational use of rules and the referee's eyes closed.
The reason why Jordan used a large number of turn-over jumpers and mid-range shots to end the offense in the last three consecutive games, in addition to his physical fitness decline...
The main reason is that these powerful NBA teams have played the "false defense" to the extreme.
With the HC rules, the NBA restricted area at this moment is the "blood pond and flesh forest".
Because when defending, the strong team will follow the opponent's movement to shrink the penalty area.
If the opponent's team has a player with long-range strikes, the player who is responsible for marking him will interfere with his shooting percentage by means of upper body.
Cooperate with the extremely lethal HC rules for foreign players...
It can even be said that as an outside player, if you can finish offense with a shooting rate of over 45% in the 90s...
Then how much your physical fitness is, the coach dare to let you throw it.
Davis's defensive tactics are very close to Su Feng's imagination, and it is probably the one common to all teams in the 90s.
It appears to be man-to-man, but in fact it is a false defense.
Just as a defensive expert, Su Feng has a hunch that if the 76ers really play like this...
The 76ers absolutely pill.
Because of this kind of fake defense, your team lacks tacit understanding and you can't play at all.
Reality is not a novel, no matter how good the tactics are, they need to be run-in.
When the players complement each other, when they change defenses, and even the distance of the sliding steps, a chemical reaction is required first.
So the tycoons of the 90s will not easily change their lineup framework.
Davis's defensive tactics obviously lack the protection of Iverson.
Su Feng, who knows all about Iverson's defensive ability, knows very well that as long as Iverson is targeted by his opponent, it can only become a mutual explosion at best.
Of course, Su Feng is just a mediocre rookie, and as a professional usurper, Su Feng knows where he is now.
"Being well-behaved and sensible" is the team member that Su Feng should set up now.
After explaining defensive tactics, Davis is even less creative on the offensive end.
The only advantage is that, as Su Feng remembers, this product does not restrict players from shooting three-pointers.
This is related to the short three-point line of the NBA in the 96/97 season...
It's also related to Davis's belief that with players like Iverson, the team "should" be able to create a lot of chances for breaking points.
It’s worth mentioning that Fraser’s training in summer...
During training, although Su Feng's running position and standing position are still far behind those of experienced NBA players, his overall performance has satisfied the 76ers coaching staff.
Especially in Davis's opinion, Su Feng's "non-noisy" character is simply the greatest support for him as a tool man.
"Sue, I plan to arrange for you to play on the bench in the preseason, and play 25 minutes per game."
On this day, after the training, Davis took the initiative to find Su Feng to chat privately.
Su Feng nodded "smartly".
"Don't worry, I will appropriately arrange some low-post singles tactics for you, as well as some positioning tactics, so that you can give full play to your talents."
Su Feng's "sensible" makes Davis continue to increase his favorability, so...
Davis went on to say: "Your mid-range shooting training is good. I don't object to your three-pointers, but I hope you can increase your mid-range shots."
Su Feng continued to nod "behaved".
Su Feng knew that Davis was deliberately developing himself into the 76ers' second offensive point.
Although there is still a long way to go before obtaining "unlimited iron strike rights", Su Feng's view is that "reasonable iron strike rights" are also excellent.
……
Time flies, and it's the 26th in an instant.
On this day, Su Feng accepted an exclusive interview with NBC TV.
The interviewer for Su Feng is John Williams, the host of the basketball show on NBC TV.
While greeting Su Feng, Williams smiled and said a slang term from the Milijia family, which translated means "good wine needs a long time to brew".
I have to say that to be the host of the NBC basketball show, Williams’ emotional intelligence and way of speaking are different from those of tabloid reporters who can only be provocative.
Williams's words meant to praise Su Feng, but also to imply Su Feng:
It’s not what we thought about the interview and pushing it again, but because you played so well.
After the interview began, Williams asked with a smile on his face: "Su, as the first Chinese player to enter the NBA, do you think this status will bring you pressure?"
Obviously, Williams did his homework before coming.
As the hope of the whole village, do you think the pressure is great?
I saw that Su Feng first answered with the English version of "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight", and then added: "Actually, I once thought of giving up."
"Oh?" Williams felt an explosion, and looked at Su Feng curiously.
"Fortunately, when I wanted to give up, I met Kobe.
In Raul Meilien, the days when Kobe and I got up early, those staying up late and working hard, when we felt that you could never stand up because of fatigue...
I think what keeps me going is the power of dreams. "
"If making history is easy, why should people do their best?" Su Feng looked at Williams and said "sincerely".
I don’t know why, as a host who has interviewed countless basketball stars, Williams feels that at this moment, the fire in his chest...
It was lit.
No way, in the 90s, the soul chicken soup was so powerful.
What's more, this is the "Mamba Chicken Soup" that will inspire countless people in the future?
"Are you afraid of boos during a game?" Williams asked after a long silence.
"My best friend Kobe told me, boo, will you block you?" Su Feng replied.
"We all know that your relationship with Allen is very good.
Even he said in an interview that the team chose him to assist you, and he also called you ‘The. King’.
Do you think your current strength matches this nickname? "Williams asked again.
"That's just Alan's joking. In fact, he nicknamed me'The Flash' at the beginning." Su Feng smiled and practiced Tai Chi.
"What supported you to skip college and play in the NBA?"
Williams feels that Su Feng's answer is too "oily". Is this really just an 18-year-old child?
"I want to fight Michael Jordan." Su Feng replied calmly.
Williamston's eyes lit up when he heard Su Feng's answer.
Oh, if you kid be like a ghost, you have to drink my footwashing water, young people, still can't stand your temper...
"It's rare to see a confident young man like you." Williams laughed.
"Of course, because the best player is now recognized as Michael Jordan.
As a basketball player, I don't want to fight with him. What is the difference with Xianyu? "Su Feng replied.
Williams: "..."
What you said is so reasonable, I can't refute it.
Dreams are priceless!
Williams knew that this problem not only did not trouble Su Feng, but let himself...
Inexplicably...
There was an admiration for him.
Because the compelling style Su Feng showed at this time is too high.
"Do you think you can help the 76ers reverse their record?" After asking a few more questions, before the interview was over, Williams asked his last question.
"Can or can't be announced only after the start of the season. I never make meaningless promises.
But I can tell you that I get up at four o'clock in the morning every day to practice, not to make a goal on the court or to complete a block.
I love basketball, nothing more. "Su Feng replied.
Williams was silent.
As a basketball host on NBC TV, he felt that he was not interviewing an 18-year-old at all.
He is mature and sophisticated, and every time he answers you will feel like he said it after careful thinking.
"Is this "The.king"?"
Looking at Su Feng's handsome face, Williams teased after the interview: "If I want to find someone to do business in the future, you will definitely be my partner's first choice."
Although Williams's compliment always sounds strange to Su Feng, since it is a compliment, Su Feng didn't take it to heart.
A talented 18-year-old high school student with a mature and sophisticated personality, he will definitely become a shrewd businessman even if he doesn't play basketball...
After interviewing Su Feng, this is what Su Feng gave Williams the most.
……
Su Feng’s interview will take some time to be broadcast. In September, after having a happy meal and sleeping and playing Jerry, the arrival of October also means that the 96/97 season of the NBA is about to start. The curtain is over.
The 76ers’ first preseason game will start on the 7th, against the Bucks.
At this time in 1996, there was no broadcast of the preseason game. After nearly a month of running-in and cutting off a few temporary workers for training, the 76ers coaching staff initially set the team's roster for the new season.
The list of the 76ers preseason in the 96/97 season is as follows:
Center: Scott Williams, Hendrickson, Mark Blanco.
Power forwards: Witherspoon, Michael Cage, Ben Wallace.
Small forwards: Don Macron, Mark Davis, Su Feng.
Shooting guards: Stackhouse, Rex Waters, Lucios Harris.
Point guards: Iverson, Frank King, Doug Overton.
In general, this is a big list that even an old NBA fan who has watched for more than 20 years will never know the whole list.
When Big Ben signed up, the team reported him the position of power forward, on the grounds that his explosive head was not enough to convince everyone that he was 206 cm.
The registration position for Su Feng is the small forward because his height is the most "real".
When taking a family portrait of the team, Su Feng is about the same size as the three power forwards of the 76ers...
Take Cage for example, the registered height of this product is 206 cm, but in fact, he is only 203 cm in maximum after wearing shoes.
Su Feng's most fortunate thing now is that he ran into Big Ben in the summer. Otherwise, looking at the 76ers' forward line, he might really be drawn to play a cameo as a power forward.
Of course, not everyone's height is hydrated.
For example, Don Macron, the striker suffering from injuries, is a solid 208 cm tall.
In the second season of his career, Macron, who was motivated at the time, averaged 18 points per game on 50% shooting.
Unfortunately, Macron’s attributes do not include the attribute of resistance. In the past two seasons, he has missed a total of 69 games.
In Su Feng's memory, he was an out-and-out glass man in the 96/97 season.
In Su Feng's previous life, some people always said that Iverson was not enough to endure.
But in fact, Iverson is considered quite resistant compared to most people.
It is worth mentioning that before the start of the new season, Davis also expressed his hope that the team's record can surpass last season's expectations during the meeting.
Davis has no time to shout slogans for making the playoffs.
Because the 76ers are currently ranked 25th in the power rankings for the new season.
If Davis chanted the slogan of making the playoffs, it would be the players who would send him to a psychiatric hospital as soon as possible.
What an international joke, just like our bad team, you want me to take the lead to compete with the powerful Eastern players?
The alliance at this moment is still a pattern of strong east and weak west.
In the 96/97 season, the eighth-ranked Washington Bullets in the East scored 44 wins, while in the West, the threshold for reaching the playoffs is much lower...
Bad teams like the Clippers have scored 36 wins and all made the playoffs.
The Eastern Civil War is full of power. After reading the schedule, Su Feng feels that every game is a hard fight for the current 76ers.
……
On the 7th, the 76ers first played the Bucks in the preseason.
Su Feng saw Lei Allen again...
With his big buddies.
The Bucks with Glenn Robinson and Wen Baker belong to the team that looks good, but in reality, they only want to brush their numbers.
Ray Allen's reasonable play style is simply a different kind of this team.
Fortunately, Robinson is not interested in scoring data in the preseason, and Wen Baker is not working hard.
With the big guys paddling, Ray Allen got a lot of performance opportunities.
The Ray Allen of this period is not the Ray Allen of the future.
This is a Ray Allen with Speed.Boost installed, if you dare to let him go, he will rush you.
In this game, the 76ers sent Williams, Witherspoon, Macron, Stackhouse, and Iverson to start five.
After the start of the game, Iverson used his speed to constantly hit the Bucks' inside line.
The Bucks' starting guard Sherman Douglas quickly found a countermeasure after being successfully assaulted by Iverson.
In turn, he and Iverson formed a mutual explosion.
Neither Macron nor Stackhouse wanted to make up for Iverson.
The former is moving too slowly, and the latter is that since Su Feng is not there, he should be the main point of attack.
Su Feng, who was sitting on the bench, found that the teammates on the field had already criticized Iverson's play.
Although Witherspoon thought about working hard, but the game started almost half a quarter, he actually only touched the ball 4 times...
If you continue to play like this, Witherspoon feels that his stats for the new season will definitely be bad.
Davis has always been a young tool man. He called two timeouts and found that the players playing on the court were not at all the tactics he had arranged before the game.
As one of the builders of the first dynasty of the Bulls, Williams protects the backcourt rebounds well, but the team is crazy about the outside line...
Looking at the rebounding data, Williams can only regret that he does not have the rebounding talent like Rodman.
"It's weird, Allen didn't play so alone in the summer league..."
On the bench, assistants Jason and Rick were a little puzzled.
Actually, Iverson didn't play alone, but he and his teammates didn't call at all.
Stackhouse only wants to prove himself in singles;
Macren was very afraid of physical confrontation after many serious injuries;
Witherspoon is thinking about something else;
There is not even a player who can play a pick-and-roll with Iverson~IndoMTL.com~ From the point of view of the fighting spirit Iverson, what else can I do besides being sudden?
And today, Ray Allen on the Bucks played quite well with the two eldest brothers paddling. This kind of civil war in the 96th lottery show, who doesn't want to crush the other side?
In this way, with 4 minutes left in the first quarter, the 76ers who played away on the field had fallen behind 14-25.
"Sue, you go and replace Don (Macren) after the ball is dead for a while."
Davis is gone, if you don’t think it’s okay, just work on it as you go...
On the side, Su Feng walked to the technical stage "obediently" when he heard the head coach calling him.
