What a joy to have friends come from afar~

I don't know when it will start. The topic between Ke Yan and Hebe is no longer limited to Wang Lifan, but they will also talk about themselves.

It was this conversation at the dinner table that made Ke Yan understand why Hebe was so "obsessed" with Wang Lifan.

Externally, Hebe is a member of a popular female idol group and a beautiful singer.But as a public figure, Hebe was a little overwhelmed by the tremendous pressure brought by the spotlight effect.

In other words, her original dream was just to sing, to sing freely, to sing good songs, and to support herself incidentally.

Commercial performances, concerts, advertising endorsements, variety shows and even various advertising endorsements have earned her enough wealth to enjoy life, but also deprived her of some freedom and lost some possibilities to live like ordinary people .

This rhetoric may sound "hypocritical" to some people. Isn't it good to be a big star?Isn't it good to make money?When you hit the street, who will care about you!

But Ke Yan can empathize with him. In a sense, his environment is no different from that of Hebe.

His dream has always been to become a basketball coach, to become a pioneer in promoting the development of basketball, relying on his investment vision as a traveler, to earn a sum of money to make his wealth free, and if he has the opportunity in the future, buy an NBA The team is the boss. . . . . .

When Kobe and James go out, they will attract everyone's attention, and the paparazzi will follow their every move to belittle them, but the team's owners generally don't.

But when he returned to China, the Municipal Bureau, the Provincial Bureau, and the Huaxia Basketball Association arranged various activities for him. Can he refuse all kinds of "unwilling" speeches at the activities?very blue~

The same is true for Hebe. Over time, after work, he would rather come to the United States to find Wang Lifan. This is why Ke Yan can often see Hebe next to Wang Lifan.

"It's okay, female artist, there is no such thing as a hundred-day success. After a few years, everyone's attention will no longer be on you." Ke Yan comforted with a smile.

"..." Hebe was shocked. Is this something that a serious person like Ke Yan can say?

"You are not like me. I am the first Chinese coach to gain a foothold in the NBA. I am destined to be a milestone in Chinese basketball. With this resume, even if I go back to China in despair in the future, my status in the sports circle It's also equivalent to... a housewife." Ke Yan made a gesture and said in an analogy.

"..." Hebe rolled his eyes.

"Compared to me, you are much luckier."

"..." Hebe was completely speechless.

After a while, Hebe shook his head and joked, "It's the first time I've seen you like this, damn it, it feels amazing!"

Ke Yan smiled: "So your impression of me is very rigid?"

"Be serious~" Hebe nodded and said, "Never ever told me you are so 'funny'."

Looking back, it seems like that.It's not that Ke Yan is habitually serious, but that Wang Lifan, who has been influenced by American culture, sometimes can't get some of Ke Yan's cold humor. Over time, Ke Yan becomes more serious.

"The mask has been worn for a long time, and sometimes it can't be taken off." Ke Yan said.

"Fake literature and art are starting again!"

. . . . . .

On December 12, Milicic came to Atlanta with a glimmer of hope and accepted the physical examination of the Eagles.

Leaving the Pistons full of painful memories and coming to Atlanta, the "capital of the South", Milicic consciously escaped from hell.

The head coach of the Eagles is a young scientist. In the past two seasons, he has brought out many young people at the bottom of the league; the team is in the "rising period", and there are natural vacancies in the interior position. Playing time; the core of the team is Chris Paul, who averaged nearly 9 assists per game, maybe he has more shots on the offensive end.

However, the ideal is very full, and the reality is very skinny!Milicic's physical data is quite bad!Larry Brown ignored him, and even PUA Milicic himself gave up on himself, muddled through training, and lingered in nightclubs after training. Compared with when he first entered the league two years ago, he had nothing to gain except weight.

"I'll give you a week to lose at least 9 pounds of fat, or you won't be able to play!" After receiving Milicic's physical test report, Ke Yan directly called Milicic and gave him an ultimatum.

Larry Brown is really not a thing, but Milicic is indeed a little too indulgent!There is no need to use him as an excuse to enter the league at the age of 18, and he is still a child. Opponents will not treat you softly just because you are a child.Bynum is only 18 years old, isn't it also shameful to be bullied by Barnes?

"Okay, boss." Ke Yan didn't need to say anything more, Milicic had already noticed the problem during the physical examination.If it wasn't for taking pictures, plus taking care of his own accommodation, Milicic would like to arrange a fitness plan now.

The attitude was not bad, Ke Yan nodded, and then called Snyder: "Starting tomorrow, I will hand over Darko to you, and you can help me train his defense!"

Snyder's strength is to build the team's defensive system with big men inside as the core. Keyan handed Milicic to him in the hope that Snyder can improve Milicic's defense step by step.

He was in the Pistons, under the hands of Larry Brown, the few improvements he made were on the defensive end, and Ke Yan hoped that Snyder could dig it out.

"It's difficult. Defense cannot be done by one person."

"So, in the next training time, I will reduce some strength training, give you more events, and beat the team's defensive system!" Ke Yan said, "At least after the All-Star Game, I want to see obvious results! "

Taking a deep breath, Snyder replied: "It won't take so long!"

Although the transaction procedures and physical examination have all been completed, Milicic has not entered the squad for the competition because he has not had time to complete the registration.I was sent directly to the gym to "sweat like rain", and I didn't even have a chance to say hello to my new teammates.

Milicic did not make an appearance, and the Eagles ushered in Diaw's return.After confirming that the intracranial hemorrhage disappeared and there was no concussion reaction, Diaw came back in time and appeared in this game against the 76ers.

After using multiple role players to trade for Webber from the Kings, the 76ers' record in the past two seasons has not improved much.

Iverson and Webber did not form a good chemical reaction. The answer is still to go their own way and occupy absolute possession of the ball; and Weber has become one of the pronouns of "high salary and low ability".One season ago, the "king" who was still a glorious "king" fell into such a field after one season. This can't help but make people feel emotional, "Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and the world is not allowed to see gray hair."

So far this season, the 76ers have 4 wins and 12 losses, ranking only second to last in the East, even worse than the Bobcats.The team's record is bad, and the management has more dissatisfaction with Iverson's all-encompassing style of play.

This is easy to understand. When Iverson was great, you could lead the team to win, enjoy privileges, and play according to your own temperament; but now you have fallen, and you can no longer carry the team on your shoulders. The past style of play has indeed affected the team!

If the record can't be improved, maybe it's only a matter of time before the "Son of Philadelphia" leaves his city.

Iverson and Paul are both representatives of No. 3 players, and they are both small players struggling for the glory of this league. The camera keeps switching back and forth from the two of them.From Iverson, I saw the "hero's twilight", while in Paul it was "majestic and heroic".

The referee raised the ball in his hand, and the basketball rolled into the air. Dalembert and Josh Smith jumped up at the same time, rushing towards the basketball in the air.

The ball was first touched by Dalembert, and the ball immediately fell to the right.

Iguodala took a step forward, quickly grabbed the ball in his hands, and immediately hugged it in his chest, making Paul, who came to steal the ball, helplessly go back to defend.

Iverson received the ball in the backcourt and dribbled the ball to the Hawks' half court under the leadership of Paul. Paul pressed hard every step of the way. Facing Joe Johnson's defense, Lonzoki made two tentative jumps, and helplessly passed the ball to Iverson who ran over to meet him.

Iverson held the ball in his arms with his left hand, raised his right hand, and signaled for stability.

The other players immediately began to intentionally run to the other side, and Dalembert also walked outside knowingly, but Diaw ignored him and stayed on Iverson's breakthrough line, ready to defend at any time .

Iverson used his left foot as a support point, half-turned to the right, and stood obliquely in front of Paul, protecting the ball well.

Iguodala ran over suddenly and leaned towards Iverson, and Posey behind him immediately stuck to Iverson.

Just at that second, Iverson suddenly moved and swayed to the left. After Paul moved subconsciously, Iverson stepped forward with his right foot, like a gust of wind, and like a bolt of lightning, from Paul Jumping between the cracks with Percy.

After taking a low shot of the ball, Iverson kicked his left foot fiercely, and his body suddenly reached full speed. Before Josh Smith on the side was ready, he stepped into the three-second zone, and the first step swayed to the left. In two steps, he came to the right side, brushed past Dior who was defending, picked up the ball with his right hand, and flicked it gently.

The ball was thrown upwards in a gentle arc, brushed against the backboard, then simply changed its direction and fell into the basket.

Ke Yan on the sidelines shook his hand lightly, his expression relaxed, but there was also a hint of surprise.

There is nothing to say about Iverson's personal ability. His ball sense, direction change, and coordination are all top in history.

Compared with Iverson's individual scoring, the Hawks' offense is more teamwork. Paul and Diaw's seemingly "meaningless" conduction balls are always exploring the 76ers' defensive loopholes. After a few pulls, the 76ers' defense line Loose, Joe Johnson easily made a jumper with one step inside the right three-point line.

The ball was in Iverson's hands again, and Paul immediately pushed forward.In today's game, even if Paul sacrifices his own data, he will challenge Iverson on the defensive end!

Breaking into the half court with the ball, Iverson accelerated diagonally to the right without any tricks.

Paul posted it immediately, but due to his hasty footsteps, Iverson immediately pulled half of his body away from him.

Paul touched Iverson's jersey with one hand, and leaned on Iverson's waist with the other to prevent him from full speed.

Iverson's arched body suddenly straightened up, following the upward trend, his body took off naturally.

Paul's reaction was also very fast, he jumped up directly, and sealed the door to Iverson with his right hand.

The sight of the shot was blocked, but Iverson's shot was still resolute, and the basketball quickly drew a slight arc and flew towards the basket.

"Shh!"

Iverson stared at Paul in front of him, made a shooting gesture in front of him aggressively, then turned around and ran towards his own half.

Now the 76ers need him to do more things to boost morale!

It's just that this kind of provocation, in the eyes of the opponent, is extremely unpleasant!

Paul and Josh Smith played a pick-and-roll, facing Webber's defense, suddenly changed direction and rushed to the basket. After attracting Iguodala's defense, he passed the ball accurately to Posey on the outside. The latter made a decisive shot and made a three-pointer. !

Although acknowledging Iverson's personal ability, Ke Yan has never been afraid of Iverson. If you have the ability, you can kill my team alone!

The 76ers attacked, Iverson still received the ball, took it halfway, wandered a few meters away from the three-point line, waited for his teammates to get in position, and passed the ball to Alonzoki on the outside. Then he immediately ran to the inside line.

As soon as he stepped into the three-point line, James Posey moved closer to Iverson and let go of Iguodala, who was not very reliable in three-pointers. Iverson felt that he had no chance to catch the ball, so he took a step back and turned. He turned around and ran outside the three-point line.

Immediately, Percy returned to his place.

Iverson's off-the-ball running position failed to find a chance to catch the ball. Time was running out. Alonzoki hadn't broken through Joe Johnson's press after a few fake moves, and gave the ball to the right three-point line helplessly. Iguodala, Iguodala received the ball and raised the ball to make a shooting posture. He immediately slammed the ball with a short body, took a leap forward step, and immediately came to the three-second zone line without pausing. , jump up and cast.

The basketball bounced off the rim, and several hands stretched out almost at the same time, flying towards it.

Dalembert grabbed the ball first, and after landing, he was immediately surrounded!In a panic, the ball in Dalembert's hand was lit up, it was Paul!

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Paul stole the ball and swayed past Iverson who was rushing forward, and then launched a third-line fast break, assisting Posey, who was actively rushing forward, to score a dunk!

Seeing Posey's outstanding performance, Ke Yan was also a little excited. Posey, who had a poor start, finally found the feeling of playing under Ke Yan's team! (7:4)

After Iverson dribbled the ball for halftime, Gao Yang began to direct his teammates to run loudly.

Iguodala and others began to run frequently, pulling the defenders, intending to pull out the gap.

In the 76ers, Dalembert has no shooting ability at all, and Iguodala's shooting ability is lower than that of players in the same position. Although Webber has shooting ability, a player like him needs the ball to develop his touch. If you don't give it to him Holding the ball, using him as a fixed-point turret will not work.

The Eagles shrank their defense with confidence and boldly, and Paul locked Iverson tightly at the three-point line.

Several attempts to break through failed, and Iverson forced a mid-range shot before the 24-second countdown, but failed to hit!

Diaw protected the backcourt rebounds, and directly threw off the 76ers to advance.During the march, the ball was given to Joe Johnson, who was open on the left. The latter made a fake pass and sent the ball into the inside. Josh Smith cut into the inside and dunked easily!

On the way back to the defense, Dior made a gesture to smash Josh Smith, but in the end he just gave a light "burst", which was a response to the ridicule of their relationship from the outside world!

Although he hasn't scored yet, Paul is the most handsome boy of the Eagles in this game.Ke Yan was pleasantly surprised by his restrictions on Iverson on the defensive end. Even if he knew that this disciple was both offensive and defensive, he was not confident that Paul could actually "freeze" Iverson.

However, the facts are in front of us. After completing two difficult singles in the opening game, the 76ers' offense stalled.Iverson missed shots repeatedly, and watched the Eagles start off 16:4, establishing a double-digit lead at the beginning.

The 76ers head coach Cheeks had no choice but to call a timeout, replacing Alonzogie with Korver, trying to let the outside shooter open up space for Iverson.

Korver's appearance improved the 76ers' offense to a certain extent, but the team's defensive problem is really a persistent problem. The Eagles scored 39 points in a single quarter and entered the second quarter with a score of 39:23.

After falling behind by a big score, Iverson did not continue to play as usual.Ironically, without Iverson playing, the 76ers had more cooperation. Webber and Iguodala played two wonderful cooperations to help the team narrow the point difference.

But Weber is indeed getting old, even if he is still doing his job on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, his footsteps really can't keep up.

Maybe at this time, Ke Yan can understand why the Lakers refuse to trade Webber with Odom, his decline is too obvious.The Lakers didn't see any hope of winning the championship last season, and they were unwilling to bear this salary burden, let alone lose Odom.

It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong between Ke Yan and Kupchak. It can only be said that the positions and interests of the two parties are indeed on opposite sides in this matter.Ke Yan is eager to achieve results and improve his personal reputation; Kupchak needs to be responsible for the future of the Lakers and wants to build a more secure team.

Stimulated by Milicic's entry into the team, David Lee put more energy into this game, took the game more seriously, and quickly helped the team regain the lead.The main lineup of the two teams returned, and after Iverson appeared on the field, the 76ers were still bleeding. . . . . .

At halftime, the point difference came to 24 points. (74:50)

However, this trick was in Ke Yan's arms.Paul's main energy is on the defensive end, and the Eagles' main attack in this game is Joe Johnson.Although Korver's three-pointers are accurate, his defensive ability is insufficient, and his lateral movement speed is not enough. He is not very optimistic about Joe Johnson.

Returning from the timeout, the 76ers attacked. Korver showed his characteristics as a "microwave" player. After coming on the field, he received Iverson's breakthrough ball and hit a three-pointer from the left, narrowing the point difference to single digits.

Compared with the average white shooter who catches and shoots, Korver is a little more advanced. He can catch the ball by running without the ball and shoot quickly, and he can also guarantee a hit rate.Joe Johnson didn't notice for a while, failed to keep up with Korver, and immediately raised his hand to signal to his teammates, "My, my~"

Looking back, Joe Johnson singled Korver in the low post, used his own strength advantage to "run over" Korver, broke into the basket, and scored with Webber's defensive rebound! (18:7)

"I'll let you lose your character!" The team had an obvious advantage, and Ke Yan on the sidelines also felt that "the revenge will be avenged".

That is to say, Paul is still a rookie now, and if he is replaced by a veteran, he must now taunt Iverson back!
