It was still a bulldozer-style breakthrough. Iguodala opened his hands, but could not stop it.

James came to the basket and threw the ball towards the basket.

A giant palm fell from the sky!

It's Dalembert.

The big man from Haiti greeted the Chosen One with a shot.

This guy was famous for blocking shots as early as when he was in college.

In his freshman season, he averaged 3.6 high shots per game, ranking seventh in the country.

The ball was knocked to the ground.

The elusive Iverson flashed next to the basketball, picked up the ball, turned around and headed upfield.

Korver on the left, Iguodala on the right.

The 76ers' third-line fast break.

Shentong and Wagner defended two and three.

Korver stood at the three-point line and did not move inward. Shentong immediately directed Wagner to step forward and guard, while he retreated to the basket.

Entering the three-point line, Iverson handed the ball to Iguodala.

After receiving the ball, Iguodala held the ball and flew to the basket, ignoring the defending Shentong.

He jumped up from the basket, raised his hands in the air, and covered Iguodala.

Iguodala obviously didn't guess that Shentong could jump so high and made a hasty shot.

The ball bounced off the backboard and fell out of the front of the basket.

Shentong watched the ball slip from the basket. Taking advantage of his position, he was about to take off a second time to collect the rebound in his arms. However, he did not expect anyone to take a step ahead of him. He grabbed the basketball that had just slipped with one hand and dunked it directly.

Get into the basket!

Shentong raised his head and saw Iverson hanging on the basket with one arm, like a skinny monkey stretching his long arms.

This extra buckle of pulling onions on dry land reminded Shentong that the little man in front of him, whose actual height was less than 1.80 meters, once had the title of "Indomitable God of Fighting"!

An opponent who never gives up must never be underestimated!

At this moment, Shentong remembered what Kobe Bryant once said about Iverson in the last time and space.

Young people today have no idea how good Iverson is.

...

Iguodala's athletic ability seems a bit at a loss in the face of James' strength.

But James's inside-oriented style of play made it impossible for him to do whatever he wanted under the basket guarded by Dalembert.

Iverson began to tease Wagner with his feet.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

In most games, Wagner is usually the one teasing the opponent. Unexpectedly, in today's game, Wagner became the one being teased.

Iverson's butterfly step made Wagner's defense helpless. When chasing Iverson's speed, he did not dare to use all his strength, fearing that the opponent would make a fake move. However, if he did not chase hard, he would not be able to keep up with Iverson's pace.

Using crossover to create space, Iverson broke into the penalty area along the baseline, completely pushed Wagner behind him with a jump step, and then threw the ball against the 2.23-meter-tall Big Z.

Like a high-throwing grenade, it was thrown into the basket accurately.

Moving past Wagner's steps is like dancing.

Seeing Iverson using his signature moves, Shentong was eager to try.

Facing Korver, Shentong, whose dribbling attribute exceeded 100 in this game, also performed the butterfly step.

For a time, the arena in Philadelphia was filled with excitement.

The noisy exclamations also reflected Korver's surprised face.

Today's STO dribbled the ball extremely smoothly.

With Korver left on the spot, Shentong looked up at the basket, ready to give Dalembert some color.

But just when Shentong was about to take the ball back for a layup, his right hand suddenly came up empty.

Iverson appeared ghostly at some point, reached out his palm accurately, and stole the ball from himself!

This was intercepted when the dribbling attribute had the "Holy Fire" effect.

Shentong was not willing to be intercepted like this and quickly chased back.

After all, Shentong had the advantage of height and long strides, and soon caught up with Iverson inside the three-point line.

The guy glanced back and found that no one was following him, so he immediately planned to go it alone.

As a result, everyone saw a familiar scene.

The young boy looked dazed from the front.

Iverson held the ball in his left hand, swayed his shoulder to the left, and made a fake move to break through to the left, but his center of gravity immediately shifted to the right.

Shentong hugged him with his left hand, and everything was empty.

Iverson, who was half out of his body, immediately took off and threw the ball.

Although Shentong tried hard to block the shot, it still missed by a few centimeters. He watched helplessly as the basketball escaped from Iverson's hands.

"Uh-huh."

The ball goes in.

This goal made Shentong feel a little pressure.

First he stole it from his own hand, then he successfully shook it and made a shot.

This was a naked attack on both offense and defense.

STO has not been beaten like this by an opponent for a long time.

Even if it's just for one round.

...

The Cavaliers attacked and there was a mismatch after covering each other on the outside.

Shentong had a hard time with Iverson.

This time, Shentong also wanted to use the butterfly step to break through Iverson, but unexpectedly he was unable to get past Iverson anyway, and almost dropped the ball in the middle.

Unable to escape, Shentong had no choice but to take action forcefully.

Iverson's stay in the air is quite good. Although it cannot block Shentong's shot, it interferes with Shentong's shot to a certain extent.

"when."

There was a wonderful knocking sound from Los Angeles between the basketball and the rim.

Shentong looked at his hands. He obviously felt good when dribbling. Of course, his steps were also in place. Logically speaking, he should be able to pass Iverson. Why did he suffer setbacks just now and was almost intercepted by his opponent?

...

The Cavaliers trailed the 76ers at home by 7 points, 20-27, in the first quarter when STO played with doubts.

From the beginning of the second quarter, Iverson became more and more courageous.

Steals, breakthroughs and even three-pointers were performed one by one, and scoring was almost easy.

At halftime, the 76ers led the Cavaliers by as many as 15 points.

During the halftime break, Shentong figured out the answer to the question in the first half.

The flower-crossing butterfly step is indeed powerful, but the opponent he faces is the master of this authentic step, so it is normal for his efficiency to be greatly reduced.

This also explains why STO's passing Korver in this game was like crossing the road in the early morning, but passing Iverson was very difficult.

In addition to his feet, Iverson was short and had a low center of gravity.

Shentong is a full 20 centimeters taller than Iverson and has no advantage in terms of breakthroughs.

...

After figuring it out, STO began to show its strength in the second half.

After the dislocation was formed, Shentong, who had his back to Iverson, began to use back-up techniques, gradually getting closer to the basket, and then suppressed Iverson with height.

Iverson's bounce is pretty good, but when Shentong shot from the basket, he didn't give Iverson enough time to take off.

When unable to get close to the basket, Shentong turned around and leaned back to beat Iverson alone.

Even, Shentong, who showed great touch and confidence, used a pull-up three-pointer from outside the three-point line to defeat the 76ers.

In this way, in the third quarter, the Cavaliers evened out the 15-point difference between the two sides and entered the final quarter with a score of 74-74.

...

As the saying goes, when the road is narrow, the brave will win.
