Although he felt sorry for those future children...

But for Su Feng, right now, he was more concerned with how to make good use of the system's positional matchup iron-striking value x5 buff.

According to the schedule, on the 9th, the 76ers would face the SuperSonics at home.

And next, on the 11th, their opponent would be the Heat.

The SuperSonics were a top team during this period, one of the four major Western Conference teams.

Before Kemp became round, you might not believe it, but Olajuwon's most annoying opponent was this guy.

Kemp, who could jump, leap, and run, was best at using his talent to look up at those "mortals" in the sky.

In Su Feng's previous life, during the 96/97 season, many people believed that the Rockets spent a lot of money to recruit Barkley in order to deal with Kemp in the playoffs.

As for Payton, needless to say, Su Feng had the good fortune to experience Payton's defense during a summer workout in Seattle.

It was truly...

Hard to describe in words.

In addition, the current SuperSonics team also had the future German legendary star Detlef Schrempf.

Because of his handsome appearance, Schrempf was the most popular player among Seattle fans on this SuperSonics team.

He shot accurately and was selected to the All-Star team three times in Su Feng's previous life.

As a pioneer in German basketball, Nowitzki's predecessor, Schrempf, had a representative season in 94/95, shooting 52.3% from the field, 51.4% from three-point range, and averaging 19+ points per game.

In the 90s, there was a joking saying that if you chose to leave Schrempf open because of his appearance, then he would repay you with the sound of the basketball swishing through the net.

In short, this SuperSonics team had the capital to look down on the 76ers, both in terms of reputation and strength.

As for the 76ers' next opponent, the Heat...

Okay...

When pre-playing the game against the Heat in his mind, Su Feng's mind even conjured up an image of Mourning, with flame effects, violently beating the 76ers' two black and strong players.

You should know that since being dunked on by Su Feng last time, Mourning had stated in an interview that it was the shame of his life.

"My professional career has only just begun, what have I done to offend all these big shots?"

That day, Su Feng, who had always been steady and well-behaved and never took the initiative to cause trouble, fell into deep thought.

...

On the 9th, at the Zhongzhou Arena, the 76ers faced the SuperSonics.

Before the game, during the two teams' warm-up, George Karl's expression was especially wonderful as he looked at Su Feng wearing the 76ers jersey.

To be reasonable, if Payton hadn't stopped him time and time again, Karl would have taken a knife and gone to Sacramento long ago.

Do you know, as Su Feng's performance in the new season got better and better, old Karl's heart was like being dug out, chopped up, and then slowly fried in a casserole...

My championship puzzle!

Why?

Why did the heavens treat me like this?

Who have I, George Karl, offended?

"Coach, don't be sad.

This kid, didn't he just dunk on Patrick and Alonzo?

Oh, right, he seemed to play pretty well against the Rockets in the last game." On the SuperSonics' bench, perhaps feeling that Karl's heart wasn't broken enough, Payton, who was standing next to him, gave him a timely stab.

Karl: "???"

Just dunked on Ewing and Mourning?

I freaking...

Karl felt a tightness in his chest and didn't feel like talking to Payton at this moment.

"I said coach, I think you should be more concerned about Shawn..." Pointing to Kemp, who was still sobering up on the bench, Payton reminded him.

Karl: "..."

I...

What kind of freaks am I leading?

In Su Feng's previous life, as one of the NBA's thousand-win coaches, George Karl's coaching career could be called legendary.

Because at the SuperSonics, he led Kemp, at the Nuggets, he led Anthony, and later at the Kings, he also led Cousins.

One thing is for sure, Su Feng didn't know if Karl was the worst of the thousand-win coaches, but Karl was definitely the most tragic of the thousand-win coaches.

Because he really hadn't led a single superstar who was even slightly normal.

During the SuperSonics era, perhaps the driving force that could support Karl's coaching was Schrempf...

As for the reason?

It was also very simple, just look at Su Feng on the opposite side and you'll know.

Ahem, let's get down to business.

Perhaps because the 76ers had won against many strong teams before, before the game, when Davis was setting up tactics and emphasizing "we have a chance to win tonight"...

None of the 76ers players thought there was anything wrong with what Davis said.

At this moment, Su Feng felt very gratified.

Because Davis, he had grown.

This feeling of developing his own head coach, don't mention it, Su Feng found it quite fun.

But to be reasonable, in Su Feng's opinion, although Davis's tactics were very targeted tonight, he had forgotten a very crucial issue.

That was Allen Iverson.

As a "Human AI Encyclopedia," Su Feng knew that Payton would teach Iverson how to be a human being in this game.

Payton at this time was not the Payton who would allow Iverson to score 39 to 0 in the future. In Su Feng's previous life, in this game, Payton would limit Iverson's shooting percentage to below 25%.

And he would score 26 points with a 66.7% shooting percentage.

Such a data comparison, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a one-sided beatdown.

Before this game even started, Su Feng had noticed that Iverson's eyes were shining tonight.

If Su Feng remembered correctly, the point guard Iverson admired most at this time was Gary Payton.

Just like he would be extremely excited when he met "Old Rogue," Su Feng was very clear that in this game, persuasion would not make Iverson turn back.

Iverson had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Therefore, Su Feng, who could smell the alcohol on Kemp's body even from half-court away, and felt that the odds of winning this game had increased by at least 20%, hooked his shoulder around Iverson's and said, "I'll defend Gary during the defense later."

Iverson shook his head and rejected Su Feng's suggestion without thinking, because in his opinion, this was an act of actively admitting defeat.

"If he chooses to post you up, what will you do?" Su Feng continued to throw out his next question.

Iverson thought for a while and replied, "I'll go around in front of him and steal the ball."

"What if you can't steal it?" Su Feng continued to press.

Iverson hesitated, "Then I'll desperately缠着him (entangle him), not giving him a chance to shoot."

Su Feng nodded, "But in that case, you'll consume a lot of energy in defense, so how will you take on the responsibility of a point guard in offense?"

Iverson glared at Su Feng, "I'm not an idiot, since you said I'm a point guard, then of course I'll focus on passing the ball."

Perfect!

Simply perfect!

Looking at Iverson, who had already been tricked by him, Su Feng knew that the 76ers' chances of winning had increased by another 10%.

As the saying goes, three points are determined by heaven, and seven points depend on hard work. With a 30% chance of winning, that was enough!

...

Zhongzhou Arena, after a flashy entrance ceremony, the big screen showed the starting lineups for the two teams tonight.

SuperSonics: Jim McIlvaine, Kemp, Schrempf, Jose Hawkins, Payton.

76ers: Ratliff, Ben, Su Feng, Harris, Iverson.

McIlvaine was a pseudo-starter for this SuperSonics team. Usually, Karl would replace him with the team's sixth man, Jose Hawkins, halfway through the first quarter.

The defensive ability of this SuperSonics' forward and guard line could be called terrifying. On their bench, there was even a defensive expert like Eric Snow.

After being defeated by the Bulls last year, George Karl's operations in the summer could be said to have reached the point of madness.

Because in old Karl's opinion, Longley was not worth mentioning at all.

What was truly terrifying about the Bulls was their full-court press when they played small, as well as Michael Jordan's divine descent. Therefore, Karl had been staring at the Bulls in terms of team building.

It was a pity that things didn't go as he wished. Karl was staring at the Bulls, but over there, the Rockets were also staring at the SuperSonics...

The NBA in the 90s was like a game of斗兽棋 (Dou Shou Qi, a Chinese board game similar to Stratego), you eat me, I eat you, targeting each other with great enthusiasm.

On the court, during the jump ball, Ratliff easily defeated McIlvaine.

The 76ers played the first attack, and Iverson patted his head, signaling the team to play tactic number one.

The 76ers' tactic number one was also called the镰刀 (liandao, sickle) tactic, a three-point tactic that Davis had designed specifically for Su Feng.

On the court, after seeing Iverson's signal, Ratliff took the initiative to move to the high post.

Because Ratliff had a certain range, McIlvaine had to follow out and couldn't completely leave him open.

However, Ratliff's pick-and-roll was actually a "fake pick-and-roll."

The 76ers' real killer move was Su Feng, who was sneaking over from the wing, because Su Feng was the player who truly completed the pick-and-roll with Iverson.

And just as Su Feng ran to the baseline after completing the pick-and-roll with Iverson, Ratliff, who was standing at the arc, suddenly blocked Schrempf for Su Feng.

McIlvaine didn't have time to help defend, and Iverson quickly threw the ball to Su Feng, who had already run to the bottom corner.

Because when this tactic was played, Su Feng's entire movement was sickle-shaped, it was named - the Sickle Tactic.

Swish!

0 to 3!

At the Zhongzhou Arena, Su Feng scored the first point for the 76ers.

This was a very perfect team tactical cooperation. On the 76ers' bench, Davis, who saw this scene, was overjoyed, because in his opinion, this 76ers team was becoming more and more shaped under his leadership.

SuperSonics offense, turning around, the SuperSonics also played a tactic.

High post, Payton controlled the ball with his back to the basket.

Just as he attracted the 76ers' forward line to help defend, Kemp suddenly moved to the free throw line.

Schrempf took the opportunity to pass through the crowd, using Kemp's one-on-two block to get an open shot opportunity at a 45-degree angle on the right wing.

Payton sent the pass immediately, and Schrempf hit a mid-range shot, 2 to 3!

After Schrempf scored, Payton smiled smugly at Iverson, as if saying "Kid, this is how tactics are played."

It was worth mentioning that Payton only trash-talked certain opponents.

In Su Feng's previous life, Payton and Iverson had a very good relationship in private.

After the two became acquainted during Iverson's rookie season, Payton's harshness when he met Iverson in the regular season was obviously different in the future.

But tonight, before these two had formed a bond, Iverson quickly encountered Payton's unique skill after dribbling past half-court:强人锁男 (qiang ren suo nan, strongman locks man – internet slang for suffocating defense).

As the only point guard in NBA history to have won the Defensive Player of the Year award, Payton, nicknamed 'The Glove', was best at tenacious, biting defense.

The tall and long-armed Payton knew how to use his advantages.

He certainly couldn't outrun Iverson in terms of speed, so he would pounce fiercely at one moment and deliberately loosen up at another, making it impossible for Iverson to find an opportunity to break through.

This defense was very similar to Su Feng's magnetic defense, the only difference was that Su Feng would deliberately lead offensive players to the shooting area he wanted.

On the court, looking at Iverson, who was being played in the palm of his hand but still had a high fighting spirit, Payton couldn't have been happier.

This feeling of teasing a talented player, awesome!

Come on, kid, be more fierce!

In the summer, Su Feng had experienced Payton's dark humor during his workout in Seattle.

Payton was like this, he was good at using trash talk to anger his opponents, and then calmly reap the game when his opponents were in a rage.

It was a pity that Payton was destined to be disappointed tonight.

Because looking at Su Feng running towards him, Iverson suddenly remembered what Su Feng had told him before the game.

The upgraded version of the sickle tactic, it's here!

This ball, Kemp moved to the baseline in advance, trying to block Su Feng's running route.

However, after screening for Iverson, Su Feng did not run to the baseline this time, but directly went to the high post.

Payton knew that Su Feng was good at shooting, so unknowingly, Payton did not notice that his attention had shifted from Iverson to Su Feng.

On the court, after passing the ball to Ratliff, Iverson quickly cut to the basket.

Ratliff passed the ball over the top, and Iverson easily hit the backboard after receiving the ball.

2 to 5.

After scoring the goal, Iverson also gave Payton a smug look.

While retreating, in order to prevent Iverson from getting carried away later, Su Feng timely "renewed the subscription," saying: "Allen, how did you manage to organize the offense so well?"

Iverson spread his hands and said, "Is it that difficult?"

Su Feng pretended to be surprised: "Of course it's difficult!"

Iverson smoothed his headband: "But usually, isn't this how we play?"

Play your Westbrook...

If you played this reasonably every game, then you wouldn't be the "Answer"!

Su Feng knew that he could only fool Iverson for a while, not for a lifetime, but as long as Iverson could be fooled by him in this game, that was enough.

So, Su Feng smiled and said, "Although we usually play like this, Allen, tonight, in my mind, you are the best point guard in this league...

No, you're the best player!"

Iverson was happy and patted Su Feng's butt while secretly smiling.

Turning around, SuperSonics offense, having been tricked by the 76ers with the same tactics twice in a row, Payton decided to teach Iverson how to be a human being this ball.

Bang, bang, bang, on the court, Payton used his height to post up Iverson, and Iverson suddenly went around in front after resisting twice.

Payton dribbled to the other side and turned around, but just then, Su Feng suddenly rushed over from the wing.

Payton was shocked, because Su Feng's help defense meant...

This guy, he's not guarding Schrempf anymore?

Forget about that, Su Feng knew very well that once Iverson was scored on by Payton a few times, then his previous "renewal" would have been in vain.

Because Iverson's nickname was "Answer," and the thing he liked to do most was to play Answer.Ball!

When a weak team plays a strong team, it's useless to just focus on defense. If Iverson went crazy, then the 76ers would be finished today.

Therefore, Su Feng would rather let Schrempf score a few times than let Payton score.

Although Su Feng knew that Schrempf was as handsome and accurate as him, this guy also had a weakness...

That was, he was a Reasonableness Emperor!

In Su Feng's previous life, no matter how good his feel was, Schrempf's career high score in a single game was only 36 points.

Because in Schrempf's opinion, if he shot too much, it would affect the rhythm of other teammates.

Don't ask, the times are different, and the concepts are different.

To be reasonable, with Schrempf's shooting skills, if DeAntoni was coaching him in the future, Schrempf wouldn't even think about coming down unless he threw ten or eight three-pointers.

Pa!

Su Feng, who was helping defend, successfully stole the ball, and Iverson took the lead in breaking quickly.

"Ai-Feng" connection, completed by Iverson.

A wonderful fast break one-handed slam dunk.

2 to 7.

At the Zhongzhou Arena, the Philadelphia fans in the audience were stunned.

From a rational point of view, before the game, the 76ers fans did not have too much hope that the team would beat the SuperSonics.

But...

Could it be that tonight, we are going to劫 (jie, rob) the SuperSonics?

Hiss!

Don't mention it, it's quite exciting to think about.

After all, the SuperSonics were the team that made it to the Finals last season.

On the SuperSonics' bench, George Karl started to feel uncomfortable again at this moment...

What kind of judgment is this?

Su Feng's timing of help defense, his technique of stealing the ball, isn't this the person with seven moles on the soles of his feet that George Karl has been looking for?

On the court, after the 76ers scored on a fast break, it was the SuperSonics' turn to attack.

Payton was a little annoyed, because tonight's script was completely different from what he had imagined!

Could it be that he couldn't even handle two rookies?

Payton was very angry, and the consequences were very serious, and then...

He was double-teamed...

No!

I freaking, hey, number 23 of the 76ers, you're really too much, you know?

Do you know that this will make people think that the SuperSonics are just Payton's team?

This ball, Payton quickly threw the ball directly to Schrempf.

And Schrempf didn't let Payton down, accurately hitting a soulful踩线 (cai xian, stepping on the line) three-pointer.

4 to 7.

On the court, Iverson saw that Su Feng had lost his position because of the double team this time, looked up at Su Feng and said, "Su, trust me, I can solve him one-on-one!"

I trust you my ass!

If you can solve Payton, then Nash is the NBA's Best Defensive Player.

Of course, Su Feng certainly wouldn't say his true thoughts, but he patted Iverson on the shoulder and said, "Allen, I believe you can solve Gary Payton one-on-one.

But isn't this to ensure your stamina?

You know, tonight we're counting on you alone to pass the ball, the pressure is too great for you, I have to do something for you."

Iverson was poisoned.

This kind of poison is called: The Hope of the Whole Village.

Su Feng's previous life, the Finals at the beginning of the century was an example. At that time, Iverson, burdened with the hopes of the entire team, led the team to win a game against the Lakers.

Su Feng was just making this scene happen in advance. Of course, in his subconscious, Su Feng was instilling in Iverson not scoring, but passing.

I am the only player on this 76ers team who can pass the ball to his teammates!

Look at poor Ben, who only gets less than 3 points per game.

Then look at Ratliff, who always selflessly screens for him.

And Su Feng, who always silently helps him make up for his position.

And...

Okay, Iverson really couldn't remember who else was on the team, but that's not important anymore!

Iverson puffed out his chest.

After dribbling past half-court, he kept looking up to observe his teammates' movements.

At this moment, how much he was like the辣个 (la ge, that) '183' in the future!

Payton was completely helpless.

Because he could defend Iverson's breakthroughs and shots, but he couldn't stop Iverson from passing the ball, right?

This is completely different from the Iverson in the pile of videotapes I watched before the game!

Bang!

An assist from Iverson, even an iron tree can bloom, the tipsy Kemp couldn't keep up with Ben, Ben Wallace caught the ball and slammed it with both hands, 4 to 9!

On the sidelines, George Karl called a timeout.

At this moment, Karl was holding a tactical board in his hand, looking at the ceiling...his mood was extremely complicated.
