The convulsion superstar of basketball

Chapter 204 203. He's Not Worthy ([-] Words)

In the next period of time, Su Jiu and Iverson seemed to be competing with each other on the court.

As long as Su Jiu does something on the offensive end, then in the next round after returning, Iverson will definitely face Su Jiu with a tough shot.

But what I have to admit is that time is really a butcher's knife.

Even though Iverson still has the fighting spirit of his youth, his body can no longer keep up with this kind of overload.

So after experiencing the seriousness in the first half, Iverson obviously lost a lot of physical strength in the second half.

For example, due to physical exhaustion, Iverson had already passed Su Jiuhou's breakthrough layup several times. When facing Howard's supplementary defense, Iverson obviously became a little unstable at the moment of the shot.

This also led to a slight difference in the last shot, and the personal shooting rate in the second half obviously dropped a lot.

Although Su Jiu also wanted to maintain the traditional virtue of respecting the old and caring for the young, when faced with this situation, Su Jiu showed no mercy.

Facing Iverson, who was seriously drained of stamina, Su Jiu started to play more aggressively on the offensive end in the second half.

After all, throughout Iverson's career, his defensive ability has always been relatively biased, and now that he is old, the movement speed of his feet has begun to slow down.

With such a loss of physical strength, facing Su Jiu on the defensive end, Iverson has completely become a defensive loophole.

Finally, at the end of the first quarter, the Magic also temporarily ended with:

28:24

Leading the Pistons by four points, the contest between the two sides ended in the first quarter.

Throughout the first quarter, Su Jiu's desire for the offensive end was very strong.

在打满了整个首节的情况下，苏久个人也是7投5中，三分线外1中0，罚球2中1，单节就砍下了11分3篮板以及2次助攻的数据。

This data has even reached the data that Courtney Lee Benz barely reached in a whole game.

Facing Iverson Sujiu in the entire first quarter was full of fighting spirit. Although I don't know the reason, this scene also made the head coach Stan Van Gundy nod secretly.

After all, for a rookie player, personal skills are important, but on the road of career, the most important thing is the heart that dares to challenge.

One of the most important points, of course, is that you must not feel guilty when facing those long-established stars.

If a person feels in his heart that he cannot defeat the opponent, or puts himself on the side of the weak, then he has already lost from the beginning.

Facing Su Jiu's provocation throughout the first quarter, this also successfully inspired Allen Iverson's fighting spirit.

Dragging his old body, Iverson played 10 minutes and 24 seconds in the first quarter in a daze.

在上场的10分24秒里，艾弗森个人8投4中，三分线外2中1，罚球4中3，单节就贡献出了12分2助攻以及1次抢断的数据。

You know, this season's Allen Iverson can only contribute 36.5 points in an average of 17.4 minutes per game.

So today's Iverson has obviously performed exceptionally well, and he intends to risk his old life, and he also wants to teach Su Jiu, a young man, a good lesson.

It can be said that the confrontation between Su Jiu and Iverson in the first quarter has definitely become a highlight of this game.

Because two people hit you back and forth, and you hit one and I answer the other, which can be said to make the audience addicted to the eyes.

Not to mention that the audience at the scene were hooked, even the head coach of the Pistons, Michael Curry, was flushed at the moment.

Since coaching Allen Iverson, his personal performance has shown a degraded state, which has also caused the team's record to be unable to move forward, hovering on the edge of the playoffs.

With the famous superstar Allen Iverson in his hand, and three of the five Pistons, he only contributed such a result in the end.

This also makes Michael Curry feel a little depressed all the time.

You know, Allen Iverson averaged 26.5 points per game last season, so Iverson's state has declined very quickly this season.

At the beginning of the season, many fans still questioned that it must be that Michael Curry didn't know how to use it, which caused Iverson's personal data to shrink severely.

Michael Curry, who heard these words at the time, almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

"Fuck, why don't I lie down..."

So when Iverson was in a heroic state in this game and looked like he was back to the top, it also made head coach Michael Curry feel very sour.

I even secretly thought in my heart:

"If Allen can maintain this state for a season, why should I worry about not making the playoffs?!"

After returning from the second quarter, the two sides also sent most of the substitute lineup to compete.

The Pistons' bench lineup is not very strong, and it can even be said to be extremely poor.

At least among the 30 teams in the league, the bottom five teams will definitely have the Pistons.

But fortunately, in this game, Pistons head coach Michael Curry also put McDyess in the starting lineup in order to better limit Howard's troubles at the basket.

This also led to at least one Stuckey left on the bench to fight.

Otherwise, relying on the second team headed by Will Bynum in the past, they will definitely be sieved by the Magic.

As a high-ranking rookie who was just selected by the Pistons last year, Stuckey has made great progress this season.

I believe that if Iverson hadn't occupied most of the team's possessions, Stuckey's data would definitely rise again.

So after the second quarter, Stuckey, who was put on the bench, was even more comfortable.

Because he can be said to be shooting as much as he wants in the second team, he doesn't have to worry about Allen Iverson fighting for the ball with him on the court, let alone the continuous practice of running back and forth on the court.

However, compared with the Pistons, the Magic's second team can be said to be more complete.

Although with the rise of Su Jiu this season, Nelson's playing time has been compressed, but this does not mean that Nelson's personal strength is not as good as that of the average team's substitute.

In fact, with Nelson's current personal ability, most teams in the NBA can serve as the main point guard.

It's just that his role on the offensive and defensive ends is relatively single, and his advantages are not enough to cover up his lack of defense on the court.

To put it more bluntly, it means that it is tasteless to eat and it is a pity to discard it.

With the rise of a rookie like Su Jiu who is very balanced on both ends of the offense and defense, coupled with the desire to win on the court, Van Gundy also decisively abandoned Nelson and chose to promote Su Jiu to the top position.

After nearly half a season's schedule, the final facts have proved that Van Gundy's decision is definitely very wise.

In the matchup between the two teams' second teams, the Magic has always had a slight upper hand.

Although the Magic has a great advantage in the overall lineup, Stuckey has unlimited shots in the second team, and he also played a relatively high efficiency today.

This also led to the fact that although the Magic had a slight upper hand, the point difference on the field was not widened as quickly as people expected.

As Stuckey broke into the basket again against Nelson's defense and completed a layup after pulling the bar, it also made Stan Van Gundy angry off the court.

I believe that if Su Jiu hadn't played the entire first quarter, then Van Gundy would have replaced Nelson's moving pork belly by now.

So far, Nelson has only averaged 26.3 minutes per game this season.

In 26.3 minutes, Nelson averaged 11.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game, but his defensive efficiency was very low.

Therefore, under Stuckey's personal leadership, the Pistons' second team also ushered in a very fierce counterattack.

In the end, as Max Hill completed a dunk on Tony Batty on the offensive end, he also successfully narrowed the point difference on the field to 2 points.

This series of offensive attacks also directly forced Van Gundy to call a timeout.

And during the timeout, Van Gundy yelled loudly at the off-field substitute players.

After all, facing a team like the Pistons, whose second team can be ranked at the bottom of the league, and can still play like this, it is no wonder that Van Gundy was so angry during the timeout.

After the timeout, with 7 minutes and 21 seconds left on the court, Van Gundy also waved his hand and directly took most of his main lineup.

After all, this game can be described as the annual Christmas game. In Van Gundy's heart, the outcome of this game is absolutely crucial.

After returning from the timeout, the Magic's current lineup on the field is:

Su Jiu, Courtney Lee, Lewis, Turkoglu, and Gortat.

Holding the ball through the half court, facing Stucky who was defending him at the moment, Su Jiu seemed absent-minded, as if he didn't take it to heart.

Stuckey is 1.9 meters tall and weighs 93 kilograms. He can be said to be very strong at the point guard position.

After all, in this day and age, most point guards can be called small and exquisite, and point guards taller than 1.9 meters [-] are almost rare.

You must know that Su Jiu is 1.9 meters four and 90 kilograms in weight, and he is already considered strong at the point guard position.

Even when he first became famous, he was often brought up by the media as a discussion, discussing whether Su Jiu was considered a traditional point guard.

Su Jiu is quite familiar with the player Stucky, after all, he was still a little famous in his previous life.

Of course, this reputation is not because of his ability on the court, but because he is a weird player who is selfish enough to make people gnash his teeth off the court.

Since Stuckey wore the No. [-] jersey in the Pistons, I believe that Pistons fans know what this jersey means to the Pistons.

Because the No. [-] jersey is exactly the jersey worn by the former Pistons Five Tigers Ben Wallace, so for this rookie to wear the No. [-] jersey when he first came to the team, this also caused dissatisfaction among many fans in the local Motor City.

But in fact, this is just a small thing. The real thing is the deal between the Pistons and the Nuggets this season, which is the deal that sent Chauncey Billups to get Iverson.

Iverson has always worn the No. [-] jersey throughout his career. Presumably, even if he is not a fan of Iverson, he will know this matter very well.

But after Iverson came to the Pistons, Stuckey refused to give up his No. [-] jersey, forcing Iverson to change to No. [-] jersey during his time with the Pistons.

And the story is far from over. Since Iverson and Stuckey are two types of combo guards, they can be on the court at the same time.

However, due to the poor defensive ability when the two were on the court at the same time, for a period of time, Michael Curry also chose to put Iverson in the starting lineup and let Stuckey play as a substitute.

As a result, this behavior really dissatisfied the young and energetic Starkey, and even faced the media interview, he also bluntly praised:

"Iverson should be on the bench for me."

This remark also caused great dissatisfaction among Iverson fans at the time. It can be said that Stuckey has been sprayed into a sieve on the entire Internet.

It is precisely because of this sentence that Iverson's classic sentence came out later:

"I will definitely not be on the bench, because no one deserves me to be on the bench."

It was precisely because of this incident that Su Jiu in his previous life paid a little attention to this player named Stucky.

Su Jiu knew that his biggest weakness was his slow lateral movement speed, and his athletic ability was considered below average in the entire NBA.

Being able to be selected by the Pistons at a higher level is precisely because his height and weight are considered good, and he has the determination to never be afraid on the offensive end.

Of course, determination is determination, but the hit rate is hard to say.

After all, Stuckey is the only weird player in the history of the league who shot less than 10% in the first three games of his career...

Facing Stucky, seeing Gortat wanting to come up and make a pick-and-roll for himself, Su Jiu waved at the latter, indicating that the ball does not need a pick-and-roll.

And Su Jiu also gestured to the people around him, indicating that everyone should pull away, and he wanted to play this ball by himself.

You must know that Su Jiu has always been a player who is compatible with offense and organization in normal times. It can be said that there are very few balls where he insists on singles like this to signal his teammates to pull away.

Even in this season, this situation will never happen more than three times.

"Hey, this ball Su also signaled his teammates to pull away. He wants to play a single against Rodney (Stuckey). This kind of situation is really quite rare."

"Su has always been a player who focuses on the overall situation. It is really rare to signal his teammates to pull away and play singles like this."

Karen: "That's right, Rodney's height and weight are actually similar to Su's physical condition."

"I'm afraid Su's only advantage is in speed, but it's really hard to say how much faster he can be."

"Because so far, Su's scouting report is actually very inaccurate, and it has even reached the point of being invalidated."

"This also leads us to say that we currently know very little about him. After all, Su has shown us too much this season, so that we don't know which side is his real side."

Facing the doubts of his teammates and the on-site commentator, Su Jiu didn't express anything.

Su Jiu's thoughts at this moment can be said to be very simple. When facing Iverson, he doesn't need any pick-and-roll from his teammates, so when facing Stucky, he is even more unworthy! !

After all the teammates pulled away, Su Jiu continued to change the rhythm of his crotch. The whole person looked like a cat catching a mouse, and that demeanor completely ignored Stucky.

As early as after seeing Su Jiu's actions, Stucky on the defensive end felt very uncomfortable.

This action of Su Jiu obviously does not take him seriously. If it comes to the time to enter the alliance, then Su Jiu will still be behind him.

So at this moment, seeing Su Jiu being so rampant, Stucky also felt very annoyed. On the defensive end, he lowered his center of gravity, closely watched Su Jiu's rhythm changes, and made up his mind to teach Su Jiu a lesson.

But at this moment, Su Jiu was very casual, as if he didn't pay attention to Stucky at all.

After continuous crotch dribbles, Su Jiu also suddenly accelerated and began to break through to the right.

After seeing Su Jiu's breakthrough action, Stucky also immediately shifted his center of gravity to the right, blocking Su Jiu's breakthrough route.

Seeing that Su Jiu's breakthrough route was seen through so easily, Stucky's face showed a touch of contempt, but before the corner of his mouth rose, the smile on Stucky's face froze in an instant.

Because after Su Jiu leaned to the right at a very fast speed, there was a sudden pull back, and the whole movement did not stop at all, it was completely completed on the move.

crossover! !

This set of movements coupled with the explosive speed of Su Jiu far crushing Stucky also directly swayed Stucky behind him.

Seeing Su Jiu who suddenly passed by a crossover and then started to break through from the left, Stucky also subconsciously pulled back, as if he wanted to hold Su Jiu's pace of breakthrough.

But because Su Jiu's explosive speed was too fast, Stucky's hand pull this time was a sudden pull, and this pull directly made Stucky fall backwards because of his unstable center of gravity.

And this scene fell in the eyes of all the audience at the scene, and it became that Su Jiu dribbled the ball for half the court and then signaled his teammates to pull away, no pick-and-roll was needed.

Then in the personal one-on-one, he used the crossover between the marches to directly knock down Stuckey on the defensive end! !

This confidence, this ability, and this result directly ignited the audience!

"My God!!!"

"sky!"

At this moment, Su Jiu didn't even see Stucky being shaken to the ground behind him like a clown.

After breaking through, facing Max Hill who came to assist in the defense, Su Jiu didn't stop at all, but sped up and jumped with all his strength, as if he was about to complete an offensive split dunk! !

While Maxiel successfully stood up to assist in the defense, Su Jiu's explosive power had already reached its peak.

Stretching out his left hand in the air to block it slightly, Su Jiu mustered all his strength and directly dunked the ball hard into the basket with his right hand! !

"!

Following the kick that knocked Stucky down and then dunked Maxiel's split dunk, Su Jiu, who landed, also rushed forward several steps due to the force of the impact before stopping the force.

After landing, Su Jiu directly pulled the No. 44 jersey in front of him, and let out a heart-piercing roar at the audience in front of him.

"Roar!!"

Accompanied by Su Jiu's roar, the entire Orlando Arena was instantly ignited, and all the fans stood up at this moment, frantically shaking the objects in their hands.

At this moment, every fan cheered from the bottom of their hearts.

Just because the player standing on the court at this moment is called Su Jiu, an undrafted genius who came out of Orlando! !

After the celebration, Su Jiu, who was back on defense, didn't say a word when he passed by Stucky, but showed an indescribable smile, and kept shaking his head at Stucky.

Seeing Su Jiu's action, Stucky, who already felt ashamed in the atmosphere, was immediately ignited.

He rushed forward with a stride, pushed Su Jiu's chest, and said incessantly:

"What are you, you really think that I was knocked down by you just now?! What are you arrogant about?!"

Seeing this scene on the field, players from both sides ran over immediately and pulled the two sides apart.

While being pulled away by his teammates, Stucky was still chattering, while Su Jiu raised his hands high, signaling to the referee that he did not cross the line.

And there was that faint smile on his face all the time, as if Stucky was barking there alone, not paying attention to him at all, let alone having the desire to quarrel with him.

Looking at Su Jiu's indifferent smile, he didn't intend to quarrel with him at all, and didn't take himself seriously at all.

This scene also made Stucky more and more angry. While gradually breaking free from the pull of his teammates, Stucky even pointed his finger in the direction of Su Jiu, cursing non-stop.

Seeing this scene, Su Jiu was still not angry at all, but took out the braces in his mouth, then raised his right hand high, and kept shaking his fingers in Stucky's direction.

While shaking his fingers, Su Jiu's left hand kept flapping up and down towards the fans, trying to stimulate the atmosphere of the fans.

Seeing this scene, the home fans, who were gradually recovering from their senses, also shouted very loudly. There was a response to Su Jiu, and at the same time, there were constant abuse at Stucky.

Under the noisy environment of the entire Orlando Arena, the three referees at home seemed to feel great pressure.

When the game was stopped immediately, the three referees immediately got together to discuss, as if they were discussing what happened just now.

After the referee stopped the game, both Su Jiu and Stucky were dragged back to their own camps by their teammates.

Just when Su Jiu was pulled back, Xiao Lizi couldn't wait to run forward, and asked Su Jiu eagerly:

"What's going on? Are you okay? Didn't you get hurt? That guy didn't hurt you?!"

Seeing Xiao Lizi asking four times in a hurry, Su Jiu also felt a little funny, patted Xiao Lizi on the shoulder and replied to him:

"I'm fine, but that guy's psychological endurance is a bit weak. I'm talking about it. If a dog bites me, I can still bite a dog, haha."

At this stage, the head coaches of both sides also stepped forward to ask about the specific situation. After all, from the perspective of the head coach, they really don't know what happened on the field.

At this time, the three referees came to the replay center and replayed the scene just now many times.

Under the noise of the fans at the scene, the time also passed by every minute and every second. In the end, the three referees and the replay center seemed to have reached a unified opinion.

At the same time as the whistle was blown again, the referee also made a high gesture towards the broadcasting platform, Stuckey level one malicious foul! !

While seeing the referee's gesture on the big screen at the scene, all the fans at the scene burst into shouts of higher decibels in an instant.

Although a flagrant foul will not expel Stuckey, it will still give the Magic two free throws.

The most important thing is that for this kind of foul with obvious physical contact, the fans are most disgusted that the referee only calls an ordinary foul.

Therefore, the fans on the scene felt very satisfied with being able to whistle a first-level malicious foul.

In fact, the pressure on the three referees at this time is also very huge. This pressure not only comes from the crazy shouts of all the fans at home, but also because this game is this year's Christmas game.

It can be said that in addition to the fans at the scene, there are countless fans watching in front of the TV at the moment.

So if a penalty is not good, I am afraid that this game will be widely reported by the media.

So the three referees got together to discuss for a long time, and finally gave a penalty for a malicious foul of the first level.

After all, Stucky's action can be said to be an unnecessary dangerous action.

Because this kind of action can easily cause the two teams to fight on the court, you must know that since the Palace of Auburn Hills incident, the league has severely punished fights on the court.

It's completely an attitude that would rather kill the wrong than let it go.

After seeing this penalty, although Pistons head coach Michael Curry was also very helpless, he put Stuckey off the court for the first time and asked him to calm down his emotions.

And regained his main lineup, after all, the main players of the Magic have basically returned.

As the referee blew the whistle around his neck again, players from both sides returned to continue preparing for the game.

Iverson, who returned to the field, also walked to Su Jiu's side, touched Su Jiu lightly with his hand, and then asked with a smile on his face:

"Hey, what happened just now."

Looking at Iverson who returned to the field, Su Jiu also chewed on the braces in his mouth, and said absent-mindedly:

"Ham, it's nothing, I just want you to come back quickly and fight with me. After all, compared with you, he is not worthy..."

Hearing Su Jiu's words, Iverson was also obviously taken aback, and looked up at Su Jiu's absent-minded expression, not knowing whether the words were true or false.

But after being dazed for a while, Iverson burst out laughing instantly, and then patted Su Jiu's chest with his hands.

"Haha, you kid..."

　I haven't broken chapters these days, it's all big chapters, brothers!
