Chapter 236: The Conditions of the Dynasty

On the night of the All-Star break, the star players were busy.

News interviews, gatherings of acquaintances, and battles of wits with the media are constantly being staged all over Las Vegas.

And Chen Mu and his entourage, after the end of the game, received an invitation from Iverson, who also came to participate in the main competition, and prepared to have a small reunion with their good brothers.

Because of the Che-style bar incident before, Iverson's contact with Chen Mu and others was reduced after that, and his private phone calls and emails were not interrupted, but he rushed to meet somewhere on a day when there was no competition, and he had some scruples, for fear of being caught by the pervasive media.

And this weekend is All-Star Weekend, and the stars are not coming to Las Vegas for personal matters, and it is not likely to be criticized to meet and catch up in this context.

made an appointment at the time and place, Chen Mu went to the appointment with Iguodala and Korver, Miller and Iverson, who came to Philadelphia as trade chips, did not have much intersection, and Carney did not communicate much with the former Philadelphia boss, so the two went their own way.

Coach Cheeks also did not attend the small party to avoid suspicion, and the new Philadelphia Audio-Technica and the former boss met at a clubhouse.

β€œYO~That’sMyHero~!”

As soon as they met, Iverson smiled happily and joked with Chen Mu and others, and after a complex street-style high-five, the four of them sat down and talked about the recent situation.

After arriving in Denver, Iverson's tactical position has declined, but the team's record is indeed better than that of Philadelphia, but unfortunately the Western rankings are a little lower than the strong players, and there should be no problem in the playoffs, how far can it go? Iverson didn't know the bottom of his heart.

"It shouldn't be, your lineup is so strong, and your talent is going to overflow, how can you not go up in battle?"

Iguodala also scratched his head at this question, and Iverson smiled bitterly when he heard this: "The chemistry is not good." That's all I can say! ”

Indeed, Denver's offensive firepower has become so strong that it is impossible to pinch into one, and on the offensive end, even if it relies on the whole court alone, it can score a lot of points, but on the defensive end, the shortcomings of such players who do not communicate with each other are exposed.

In the first half of the season, Martin, the most serious defensive player on the Denver team, even made a deliberate foul and received six individual fouls because he was dissatisfied with the team's overall defense, and walked off the court without waiting for the referee to blow the whistle. It's just a small detail in a game, but the situation in Denver is complicated right now. It can be seen.

"To put it simply, no one will obey anyone."

Iverson drank and said, "You know me, I won't convince anyone, Carmelo too, JR, Martin, Camby, they are all like this, everyone is a high-level show, they all have a very brilliant career, and they have to be pinched together to advance and retreat." It's just too hard. ”

"Alas, the All-Star roster can't create a dynasty......"

Chen Mu sighed slightly, clinked glasses with Iverson, raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.

"You're right. An all-star team may be able to create a championship, but it is difficult to create a dynasty. Iverson nodded: "The former Lakers and Celtics, although now they are not only All-Star teams. It can even be counted as a Hall of Fame lineup. But in addition to the core players, the reason why the rest of the players can become All-Stars or be inducted into the Hall of Fame is actually because of the influence of the team's record aura. ”

It's rare for Iverson to say so much at once. Several former junior brothers did not interrupt, listened carefully, and knew that Iverson must have a lot of depression in his heart, and now these words are spoken, somewhat venting.

"The conditions of the dynasty are far more complicated than we imagined."

On this night, several Philadelphia backbones who were in a good mood because they were in a good mood for their respective shines in the All-Star Weekend were a little depressed because of Iverson's recent situation.

The league is the rivers and lakes, and I can't help myself, does Iverson really want to go to the Nuggets? Maybe even he couldn't tell. But no matter what, when a fighter comes to the new club, the blood and momentum in his heart will never be lost. But the feeling that it is clearly not far from the championship, but it seems that it is always taking a detour, is really not good.

After a while, everyone was a little drunk, Iverson was already a little drunk, and suddenly said to Chen Mu: "Chen, many teams have talked to you today, right?" ”

Chen Mu knew that the team in Iverson's mouth was referring to the stars of the team such as LeBron and Parker, and he did not shy away from it, so he simply nodded and said: "That's right, you want to win me over." ”

Hearing Chen Mu's words, Iverson, who asked the question, didn't react much, but Iguodala and Korver were two, and their expressions instantly became a little nervous.

"Haha, the team players are popular~"

Iverson smiled, "How's it going, tempting?" What did those guys say? Champion? Centrality? Future? ”

"You have all of them." Chen Mu said with a smile: "LeBron said the future, Parker said the championship, Kidd said the core, in short, all kinds of beauty." ”

"Don't get carried away." Iverson looked at Chen Mu meaningfully: "I still remember your phone call, three years later, no, now it should be said that after more than two years, I will definitely go back to Philadelphia!" ”

"When the time comes, if you three boys are still standing still, I won't be polite, even if you can't walk anymore, I will kick your ass hard!"

"Hahahaha......"

Iverson's words caused several people to burst out laughing, and after the laughter, everyone fell silent.

What exactly does it take for champions, dynasties, and Philadelphia to achieve such results and accolades?

Chen Mu, Iguodala, Korver, Carney, with these four people, Philadelphia's starting core and super bench are in place. But what about other locations?

Is Miller bad? Is Durham Porter, who just made a comeback, bad? Although these two are not star-level players, they are not much of a problem playing as starters on an NBA team.

As long as Chen Mu and the three of them grow up, can the team really compete for the championship?

What exactly are the conditions needed to create a dynasty?

Spirit, they have, young people's spirit is always very high, and the momentum is not weaker than any team.

In the future, they have, this season is aiming to enter the playoffs, isn't it just for everyone to see, the 76ers don't need to tear down and rebuild, can they break through?

Talent and development prospects, they are very many, and the new Audio-Technica has become an All-Star level player in its own right, and there is no big problem.

However, why do you always feel that something is still missing?

"Chen, do you know why Jessner keeps trying to slander me?"

Suddenly, Iverson said something that made several people not know how to answer, and the three of them were stunned, and finally Chen Mu tentatively said: "Because he doesn't like your style?" ”

"That's one thing." Iverson nodded, "But the most important thing is because he really understands basketball. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Iverson's words didn't sound sarcastic or sarcastic, and he didn't have to do so in front of his former younger brother.

Gersner knows a lot about basketball? Absolutely, after so many years of immersion in the basketball circle, Jackner's basketball literacy is definitely comparable to that of young coaches, and even better than some bad coaches.

But precisely because he understands basketball, shouldn't he be more considerate and understand Iverson's suffering? A lone warrior, a small scoring champion, snatched the MVP in the hands of a group of gods and grabbed the opportunity to play in the finals, isn't this the true meaning of basketball blood?

"It's because he knows basketball too well, so he can see through the surface at a glance and go straight to the essence." Iverson continued: "What does Billy King want? He wants profit, he wants money. What do coaches want? They want a record, a show that will increase their salary for their next contract. ”

'What do the players want? Everyone wants the future, and the championship is of course important, but life is your own, and no one will be stupid enough not to think about their future. If you have a chance to win 20+10, why should you wronged yourself and take 18+8? ”

Iverson's eyes flowed, and he looked at Chen Mudao: "You, me, including LeBron, Kobe, Tim, etc., our lives are not our own, and we have no right to choose whether to work hard for our future or do our best for the championship." ”

"Most of the time, the two goals coincide, but at some point, they diverge. I know that you have made a lot of sacrifices in terms of stats for the sake of the team this season, and I was the same back then, if I had been cautious and didn't do so many difficult performances, my shooting percentage and scoring efficiency would definitely go up a new level. ”

"But I don't have a choice."

Iverson sighed, continued to fill the glass, looked at the constantly shaking alcohol, and continued: "We are the core, the pillar of the team, the sustenance of the fans, we can't choose to fight for ourselves, what we have on our shoulders is far heavier than others. ”

Iguodala and Korver were silent, but they knew that Iverson was right.

"This year is the tenth year of my career, and only now I don't know what the conditions of the dynasty are."

"Look at Tim, look at Jordan, look at Magic and Big Bird. They're all victory freaks, but they're all much more rational than we are. We care too much, we care too much about everything on the pitch, we care too much about every possession, every offense and defense, we care too much about every win and every defeat. ”

"To create a dynasty, what you need is not an all-star lineup, not a strong helper and depth, a dynasty, what you need is a mentality that can afford to let go."

Iverson's eyes were misty, and he didn't know if he was simply looking back on his previous life, and there was a strong sense of vicissitudes in his words.

"Mature, we're not mature enough. Jesner was a basketball expert, and he knew from the first time he saw me that I couldn't really mature in my life. So he slandered me, so he went out of his way to discredit me, and he knew that with me at the core, the team couldn't make a dynasty. ”

Iverson stared at Chen Mu with both eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "You, at least the current you, are the same as me, so Gersner will be so strict with you." (To be continued......)
