When talking about Larry Brown, the first thing most fans think of is that he wastes rookies and bullies others.

Faced with a proud man like Iverson, Larry Brown would do whatever he could to kneel down and lick him.

Facing a player like Nate Robinson, who seemed destined not to achieve great success, he called him "Little Bizi" every day. When Robinson entered Brown's office crying and asked to stop scolding him,

Brown turned around and told all his teammates about Robinson's crying.

If Robinson is said not to have worked hard enough, then it would be fair to scold him.

But everyone knows that this little man, who is only 168 centimeters tall, has devoted countless sweats to basketball and will never miss a game.

Most coaches will give such an inspirational player the respect he deserves.

However, in Kongbu's eyes, these things are not the primary reason for his disdain for Larry Brown.

The things this guy did make people feel fantastic when told about them. It is hard to believe that a famous coach can reach such shameless heights.

In 2016, Billups was involved in a major scandal.

This matter can be traced back to 11 years ago, that is, in 2005. At that time, after leading the Pistons to win the championship last season, Larry Brown reached the finals again this season and joined the Spurs.

As a result, while the finals were in progress, Brown had already begun negotiating a contract with the wealthy New York Knicks.

It means that the players are fighting hard for the championship on the court, and he, the leading coach, has begun to prepare a retreat in advance. It is no wonder that Billups would use the word betrayal to describe Larry Brown.

In the end, the Pistons lost to the Spurs with a big score of 3:4 and missed the opportunity to win consecutive championships.

If they could win consecutive championships, the Pistons' five grassroots players would have reached a higher level in history.

Although Thomas Sr. has been shouting that Kongbu is a shameless boy, Kongbu feels that his level of shamelessness is really not even a fraction of that of Larry Brown.

Everyone likes money, but as the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. Behavior like Larry Brown's is really outrageous to both humans and gods.

The game was about to start, and Larry Brown frowned and looked in the direction of Kong Bu.

Generally speaking, a very junior head coach like Kongbu will take the initiative to say hello to a senior coach to show respect.

As a result, Kongbu remained motionless and didn't even bother to look at Larry Brown.

This behavior was already full of provocation, and Larry Brown suddenly felt an unknown fire in his heart.

However, he didn't think much about it. He just thought that Kongbu was a little distracted because he led the team to achieve good results at the beginning of the game.

Not long after, tonight's game officially started amid the cheers of the fans on site.

Even though the 76ers' current record is a mess, the number of fans at the scene is still full, and most of them are here for Iverson.

The starting players from both sides began to appear.

Kongbu took a closer look at the 76ers' starting lineup.

Center Theo Ratliff, power forward Coleman, small forward Tim Thomas, and the two backcourts are Iverson plus Jerry Stackhouse.

There are so many flaws in this lineup that Kong Bu didn’t even know where to start.

The first is the defensive intensity of the backcourt. It is no exaggeration to say that this may be the weakest pairing in Kongbu's memory.

Although Iverson has won three steals, his defensive efficiency is not very high, and he often loses defensive position due to too many gambling steals.

If it were any other player, with three steals titles, not to mention getting DPOY, he would at least be selected to the All-Defensive Team multiple times.

And Iverson has never been selected to the defensive lineup, which is enough to prove that his defense is really not good.

Of course, I can't say it's too bad. At least he's not even a little bit better than Nash and Marbury.

Stackhouse's defense is really bad.

It's not that he can't guard against it, it's that he doesn't want to guard against it.

As the third overall pick in 1995, and coming from a super-prestigious school like North Carolina, she is truly the chosen one.

It's a pity that his personality is too high-profile, and he was severely punished by his senior brother Jordan as soon as he entered the league.

This player has a strange fascination with offense. He has 10 points of energy on the court. He will devote all 10 points of energy to offense and will never give any to defense.

If the offensive efficiency is high, then that's fine.

All roads lead to Rome, and a burst of offensive firepower can help the team win the game.

However, his offensive efficiency is appallingly weak.

This is a bit similar to Anthony Walker, the current leader of Green Kai. Both of them are good at attacking but unable to attack, and defensive but don't want to defend.

The 76ers' backcourt partnership is weak in defense, but the bigger problem is the distribution of ball rights between the two.

Both of them are players who need to hold the ball a lot, and they can't play without the ball in their hands.

You can't expect Iverson to play without the ball, and Stackhouse's basket is not as good as Iverson, and he is even worse when playing without the ball.

In this way, it is surprising that the 76ers have a good record.

Camby won the ball with a jump ball, and the Raptors began their first offensive round.

McGrady skillfully controlled the ball and advanced towards the frontcourt. He was certainly no stranger to Iverson and knew that he favored gambling steals, so he was extremely cautious when controlling the ball.

Just when Iverson was about to step forward to defend, McGrady had already passed the ball to Wu Sheng not far away.

Kongbu on the sidelines nodded secretly with satisfaction. McGrady has a good character. At least he is not like paranoid men like Jordan and Kobe who like to fight fiercely.

If it were Kobe, even if he knew he might be intercepted, he would definitely fight with Iverson.

After Wu Sheng received the pass, he almost didn't encounter any defense, rushed past Stackhouse, and scored an easy mid-range shot.

He said that he had a hunch that he would score 40 points again tonight, and that was based on science.

Because whether he is facing Stackhouse or small forward Tim Thomas tonight, he has the confidence to absolutely crush his opponent.

Stackhouse's defense is empty, and Tim Thomas isn't much better.

As a player with a height of 208 centimeters, Tim Thomas' position is extremely awkward, a typical player who is neither three nor four.

He is too weak to play the fourth position, his low-post offensive ability is almost zero, and his rebounding and defense at the basket are also extremely poor.

If you play the third position, you are too tall, have average athletic ability, and have poor flexibility. Although you can rely on your height advantage to shoot and get good offensive efficiency, you become an ATM on the defensive end.

Not every tall small forward is Durant.

In this case, in fact, whether it is a martial saint or a monster, they have a huge room for performance tonight.

It's the 76ers' turn to attack.

Iverson held the ball very fast and rushed towards the frontcourt. McGrady could only retreat continuously, trying his best to ensure that he and Iverson were one step away from each other.

After reaching the free throw line, Iverson directly stood up and took a mid-range shot.

"Whoa!"

Even though McGrady reacted quickly and flew to block the shot in time, Iverson still scored.

The scene immediately erupted into thunderous applause, which clearly shows Iverson's popularity.

Kongbu didn't care much, as this was the end of the story, and the real show had just begun.
