The Fifth Point Guard

Chapter 121 The Answer to

The first half of the third quarter.

Iverson dribbled the ball outside, and in front of him was Shentong who had 3 fouls.

At the moment the score on the field is 60-51, with the Philadelphia 76ers leading by 9 points at home.

The progress bar of the water bottle in the Sunwell is now 70%.

Sun Zhengping said: "It's Iverson attacking again. Today, Iverson lost all the touch in the first ten games. So far, Iverson has taken 15 shots, hit 10 goals, and 7 free throws. Hit them all!"

Zhang Weiping said: "It's really incredible. It is worthy of being the league's scoring leader. The Nets have been using Shentong to defend Iverson alone. In fact, the effect is not good. I think the head coach of the Nets, Byron Scott, can consider it. Various attempts, like double-teams or whatever, Iverson can't just let Iverson do that."

With a standard crossover, cross steps, and a large change of direction, Iverson once again swayed past Shentong with incredible speed and rushed to the penalty area.

A small man of 1.83 meters, so brave and fearless.

As far as single defense ability is concerned, Shen Tong thinks that his defensive skills are already quite good.

With single-defense skills and excellent physical fitness, when defending Kobe, Tracy McGrady and even Carter with all their strength, they can effectively contain the opponent's scoring.

But only in the face of Iverson, there is a feeling of punching hard, but there is nowhere to focus.

"Drip~~"

The referee's whistle sounded again, and Shen Tong gasped for breath, sweat ran across his cheeks, and fell on the floor drop by drop.

Collins, who fouled, raised his hand.

The referee gestured towards the technical table.

"Nets thug No. 35 fouled, free throw!"

Iverson stood at the free throw line with his hands on his hips, his chest rising and falling with rapid breathing.

The blue energy emanating from his body became more and more dazzling.

It's just an ordinary standing state, and the turbulent energy is already several times stronger than it was at the beginning.

It's like transforming into a Saiyan.

After Iverson's breakthrough layup, the energy scale collected by Sunwell's water bottle has reached 77%.

Shen Tong, who was standing outside the three-point line, looked at Iverson's profile.

Perseverance and bravery.

Such a small person is only a little taller than me at 1.78 meters. How does his body contain such a large amount of energy?

Or, where does his source of energy come from?

This is the first time Shentong wants to see through a player.

In 1975, Ann Iverson, who was only 15 years old, was selected for the church high school women's basketball team. During the routine physical examination before joining the team, she was told that she was pregnant.

On June 7 of the same year, Allen Iverson was born.

Shortly after Iverson was born, his mother took him back to Hartford to meet his father, Bruton.

However, Bruton's life style and Hartford's environment are very unfavorable to Iverson's growth.

At the age of 3, Ann took Xiaoai away from Bruton.

They lived in a low-cost apartment called Steward Garden Park, and Ann worked around to make ends meet, but their lives were still very difficult.

Later, Iverson's stepfather Freeman joined them, and the family of three began to support the precarious family together.

Compared with Iverson's biological father, Bruton, Freeman is more responsible, and he has indeed taken care of the family.

But unfortunately, in Iverson's limited childhood life, Freeman entered and exited the game too frequently.

Iverson has never had the true love and teaching of a father.

But Iverson's mother, Ann, has been trying to protect her son from the black environment.

In 1979 and 1991, Iverson welcomed two younger sisters, Brandy and Lisa.

At this time, Iverson is already the amphibious state champion of Virginia basketball and football!

At that time, Iverson expected to go further in football, because he thought playing basketball was "too soft".

However, facing the situation of choosing one of two career paths, Iverson listened to the opinions of the high school basketball coach and chose to devote all his energy to basketball.

When graduating from high school, because of Iverson's thorny personality, many famous basketball schools were discouraged from Iverson.

At this time, it was Iverson's mother Ann who stood up again. In an almost isolated situation, Ann approached Georgetown University coach John Thompson at the time, hoping that he would give her son a chance.

A mother's ardent hope for her son and the great maternal love made Thompson agree to her request.

In the college basketball world, John Thompson has always ruled the army with strictness, and Iverson has gradually restrained his temper here, and played superstar data under Thompson.

In Georgetown, Thompson taught Iverson not only football skills, but also the principles of life.

During his three years in college, Iverson never got into any trouble again.

For a long time, players who participated in the NCAA competition under the strict Thompson were not allowed to participate in the NBA draft without playing four years of college.

But Iverson is an exception.

His practice of participating in the draft early even got Thompson's support.

In this way, in the 1996 draft, Iverson was selected by the Philadelphia 76ers with the No. 1 pick, becoming the shortest No. 1 pick in NBA history!

A little man who grew up from a slum, under the blessing of his mother Ann, grew up to be the favorite of the NBA league.

Many people think that Iverson trained and played hard in college because he cherished the hard-won opportunity of Georgetown University.

Or because of what my mother Ann did, Iverson was able to concentrate on the court.

Or the teaching of coach Thompson who is also a teacher and a father.

In fact, these are just some of the reasons.

The most important reason that prompted Iverson to perform hard and to graduate from college early in 1996 to participate in the draft was because of his little sister, Lisa's illness.

Lisa, who was born in 1991, has always been in poor health. When she was 5 years old, that is, in 1996, Lisa suffered from a serious illness, which made the family's already difficult life even worse.

Iverson's stepfather Freeman is still in prison at the moment.

For Lisa, in order to change the current situation of family poverty, Iverson resolutely ended his studies ahead of schedule and set foot on the NBA professional arena.

Perhaps because of the environmental influence of his childhood, Iverson is the kind of person who is always only loyal to himself, family and friends, and always expresses the truest self.

The unruly attitude will always be arrogant, stubborn and unyielding on the court.

No one can stop me.

Even though his whole body is plagued by injuries, he will not show it, and still give his best and play his best performance.

Iverson has achieved extraordinary results with the height of ordinary people.

This is the "answer" he left for everyone.

On the court, Iverson made two free throws.

62-51

The gap between the two sides widened to double digits.

Byron Scott requested a timeout.

Iverson had already scored 30 points when he was off the field.

When he put his hand to his ear, the audience roared like a tsunami.

He is a hero to Philly fans.

He is "the answer" Iverson.
