That's not to say that Iverson's skills don't support the Princeton system. After all, this tactical system's requirements for players can be said to be quite low...

What really restricts Iverson is his character!

It can be said that in order for Iverson to integrate into the Princeton system, the first thing to do is to change Iverson's character!

Is this possible? Iverson is not the kind of three-year-old child whose character has not yet been finalized. He is now an eighteen-year-old adult, and Richard does not have the confidence to influence this unruly little man.

In addition to Iverson's incompatibility with the Princeton system, Ben is also not suitable for the Princeton system, mainly because he does not have a basket...

From this point of view, the Princeton system is definitely not suitable for today's lineup, unless Richard is crazy and is willing to completely bury Iverson and Ben, and not give them any tactical status...

In fact, Richard's current plan is to make Iverson the starting point of the team's offense.

"Ai-cut?! No..." Richard thought in his mind...

This tactic named after Iverson is translated into Chinese as the Iverson air-cut tactic. The origin must be very clear to fans. It was Iverson's exclusive tactic when he was with the 76ers.

"Double horns tactic? It won't work either. The team doesn't have players like Anthony to partner with Iverson..." Richard quickly rejected another idea.

This double horns tactic was used by Iverson when he partnered with Anthony in the Nuggets. However, because the team does not have an offensive kaleidoscope like Anthony, this tactic is not very suitable.

If these two tactics are used, it can be used together, but if it is really used like this, the final result may be that Iverson takes off on his own, and then Ben and Miller still cannot escape the fate of being undrafted...

And Richard doesn't think these two tactics will definitely help them win the championship in future championships.

"Come on, let's wait until October to see the situation. I can't think of a good way now..." Richard, who had been sleeping for nearly a week because of tactics, finally decided to put this matter aside and wait for October. We’ll talk about it after the training camp.

In the blink of an eye, the October that Richard had longed for arrived!

The content of the training camp was almost the same. Richard had several years of experience as a teaching assistant, so he was able to do it easily and did not encounter any trouble.

What really troubled him was the tactical issue!

After taking out the tactics he envisioned in September and letting the team train for a while, Richard found that the results were quite unsatisfactory.

Richard was a little panicked for a moment, and he suddenly realized that the coach's job was not as simple as he thought!

Once upon a time, Richard thought that he had mastered so many tactical systems and could definitely create an invincible army. Now it seems that his idea is a bit too naive.

It is true that even without using any tactics, Richard feels that their results this season will not be bad with Iverson's solo work, and they can almost maintain the level of the Elite Eight last season...

But if this lineup under his command fails to win the championship, even if it reaches the semi-finals, Richard will not be satisfied.

"Li, do you really want to play a warm-up match against that Virginia Union University?" Old Philip asked Richard with a grimace on his face.

Richard nodded. This matter had already been settled. He exchanged a warm-up match for a big deal, so he was not at a loss no matter how he looked at it...

"Okay, but we won't lose..."

"If we lose, it will be a great shame in the history of our team. We have never lost to a second-tier league team..."

"Well, we have never played against a team at the level of the second-tier league..."

Old Philip was a garrulous, talkative man, but he had good intentions.

"Phillip, don't worry, don't underestimate our players, they will give you a surprise!"

McGee Center, Purdue University's arena.

The first game of the new season, even though it was just a warm-up match, and the opponent was Virginia Union University, which no one had heard of, but relying on the Boilermaker's golden name, there was still a huge crowd at the venue, more than 14,000. Almost all seats were occupied.

It was the first time for several newcomers to play on such an occasion, so they were inevitably a little nervous...

"Guys, relax, the opponent is just a second-level league team, this is the best warm-up target I have found for you!"

"I don't think you will embarrass me, right?" Richard said with a smile.

"Absolutely not. I can defeat a team from such a rubbish school by myself!" Ben said loudly with great emotion.

Richard was startled. If it weren't for Richard's appearance, the rubbish school that Ben said would be his alma mater...

"Brad, Ben, Brent, Allen, Jerome, you five are starting!"

The game is about to begin, and Richard begins to arrange the starting lineup.

"Zone defense, remember, zone defense! This is the most basic defensive tactic. If you can't do this well, I will make you sit on the bench forever!"

"No matter what kind of offensive system the opponent has, they must always carry out regional defense for me!"

That gentle young man with yellow skin turned into an evil tiger again at this moment, and his tone was extremely stern!

The game was about to start, and Richard felt impatient for no reason...

"Dududu!" The referee blew the whistle to start the game. The starting players of both sides began to appear, and Richard sat back on the bench.

In the first few offensive and defensive rounds of the game, the strength gap between the two sides was clearly reflected!

One is a top first-level league team, and the other is a little-known second-level league team. It is no exaggeration to say that even a player like Jerome Green is a big deal when placed on the opposing team. Absolutely a first-class figure, he may even hit various team history records!

Under such circumstances, the Boilermakers firmly held a huge advantage from the beginning.

Especially Iverson's performance on the offensive end is quite outstanding. His breakthroughs on the court are like ghosts, making opponents unable to defend themselves!

Richard watched the game from the sidelines and nodded with satisfaction. Apart from anything else, Iverson's offensive strength is absolutely crushing the NCAA. It is not unexpected to beat a second-tier league team. matter!

Seeing the game situation on the field, old Philip finally felt relieved.

After the 20-minute game time in the first half ended, the Boilermakers won 47:24 with a huge advantage of 23 points!

Among them, Iverson scored 19 points alone in the first half. His performance was quite outstanding, which directly made the tens of thousands of local fans at the scene remember the name of this little player.

The game went quite smoothly, and Richard was quite satisfied with the situation.

But the second half of the game poured cold water on Richard, making him realize that the situation might not be as easy as he thought.

To describe the Boilermakers' second half game in one word, it was chaos...

They led by 23 points in the first half, but by the end of the game, they had only expanded the lead to 25 points!

In other words, against a garbage team like Virginia Union University, the Boilermakers only won by two points at halftime!

This is undoubtedly a shame!
