Chapter 1075 1074. Crazy Blood Cap Kobe!
"Host uses Ben Wallace 2004-2005 version of the star card, ability rating 84, offense 40, defense 99, three-pointer 35, mid-range shot 45, layup 80, speed 79, strength 99, block 99, steal 90... Talent skill Big Ben domain level 5... Matching degree 35%, duration of the whole game. Matching bonus..."
Liu Mang always felt that Ben Wallace was a weirdo. When he met Ben Wallace in the 01-02 season, his defense was not as good as in the 03-04 and 04-05 seasons in theory, but Ben Wallace at that time was still a first-class star averaging double-doubles. Of course, the ability rating in the 01-02 and 02-03 seasons was as high as 86, but it dropped to 85 in the 03-04 season and 84 last season.
But the defense went from 97 in the 01-02 season to a peak of 100 in the 03-04 season, and 99 in the 04-05 season.
As for offense... my physical fitness has declined in the past two years, and I am not so good at catching dribbles.
But this is a good thing for Liu Mang!
This star card can be used throughout the game!
Liu Mang did not use it at the beginning because he was worried that Ben Wallace's talent skill of slowing down the rhythm of the game would stagnate the team's rhythm, but now the rhythm is like this, he just used it!
"Ding... The host's sense of blocking is temporarily greatly improved, the sharpness of grabbing the ball in the three-second zone is temporarily greatly improved, the strength is temporarily increased to 93, and the temporary talent skill: Big Ben domain level 2..."
"Ding...Due to the influence of Ben Wallace's talent skill Big Ben domain level 2, the host's all-round shooting ability is reduced by 2."
"... Damn!"
Liu Mang forgot about this!
Ben Wallace's defensive ability affects the game on the court. When the system judges and gives Liu Mang recognition and star card to use, not only does Ben Wallace's influence on the game directly allow Liu Mang to achieve the same effect, but the offense affected by Ben Wallace's developed muscles also affects Liu Mang!
"Ability rating 94, three-pointer 92, mid-range shot 89, layup 93..."
This is the first time Liu Mang has encountered the ability rating being reduced by using a star card!
Ben Wallace's peak star card is really a pitfall!
...
Coach Kruger and Stockton don't have a good solution for the current situation. It's not that the tactics are not enough or good, but that the defense is like this, so they can only rely on stars!
This is a confrontation at the level of the playoffs or even the finals. The hit rate of the two teams in the first quarter was extremely low. After the first half, the Lakers relied on Yao Ming's 5-for-3, and the Hawks relied on McGrady's 4-for-2 to get 6 points. The two teams barely maintained a hit rate of more than 35%. After the first quarter, it was directly 30%!
We can only continue to strengthen our defense, which is what Liu Mang wants. Kill them!
On the Lakers side, Zen Master couldn't say whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied with the performance in the first quarter. Anyway, it was like that.
But for the Lakers, there is good news. Yao Ming scored 8 points with 3 of 4 shots in 6 and a half minutes in the first quarter. Two of them were open mid-range shots, one was an alley-oop, and one was two free throws. He only made one low-post shot and was double-teamed by Rasheed Wallace and Kwame Brown and missed the shot. He didn't go to the low post again.
Moreover, the rhythm in the first quarter was extremely slow. Yao Ming didn't run back and forth many times, and his physical condition was very good.
In the second quarter, Yao Ming can play for a while longer.
The focus is still on defense, and the offense is left to the superstars to solve the problem.
…
After the break, the Hawks sent out Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Prince, Josh Smith, and Kwame Brown. Rasheed Wallace played too long in the first quarter.
Rasheed Wallace is more suitable to play center now. In the original time and space, Rasheed Wallace was already playing center in the 04-05 season of the Pistons. Ben Wallace was more like a hardworking power forward. He had not encountered particularly difficult opponents before, and Rasheed Wallace did not expose the fact that he was not so adaptable to the power forward position. But now facing Odom or Wang Zhizhi, there are obviously some bad situations. On the contrary, he defended Yao Ming well in front, and his positioning as a center was smoother than that of Odom, who was excellent in flexibility.
Jason Terry was sent to share Liu Mang's offensive pressure. Anyway, there are only two waves. There is no problem with them on the offensive end. The two consecutive championships are the best proof.
And there is no need to replace McGrady at this time. Let McGrady rest for a while. He and Prince will play against Kobe in a round-robin game. Jason Terry is enough to defend Fisher. Jason Terry is three centimeters taller than Fisher...
Iguodala sat on the bench today. The scene of Iguodala being singled out by Kobe last season and scoring 12 points in a row is still vivid in my mind.
The Lakers still played the guard line combination of Fisher and Kobe. Weaver and Vujacic would not play in this game. Devin George played as a small forward. He performed well in the first quarter and was the only player in the Lakers who scored a three-pointer in the first quarter.
In the interior, the Lakers sent out the starting interior combination of the Chinese national team, Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming! Odom played the whole first quarter. His girlfriend came. He was very active in offense and defense. He needed a rest. After all, he didn't like to train. His physical fitness was average. He relied on talent.
In the second quarter, the Lakers attacked first. After Liu Mang came on the court, the system prompt came!
"Ding...Big Ben Domain Level 2 is triggered, the pace of the game is greatly reduced, players on the field are more motivated to return to defense, and the offensive speed is increased to suppress it. It comes from the host."
"Ding... Big Ben Domain Level 2 continuous passive basket penalty area trigger. When the host is on the court, the opponent's player's layup ability evaluation in the three-second zone is reduced by 10."
Ben Wallace is because of his excellent defense over the years, which instills fear into the opponent, brings to his teammates the belief that they can win, puts pressure on the opponent...etc. The deterrence he exerts, sets the rhythm on the court. Come down and let the opponent score lower at the basket.
After Liu Mang's system was digitized, it directly became effective!
When Fisher received the serve and advanced toward the frontcourt, he felt a depressing aura, which caused him to unconsciously slow down his advancement. Seven seconds passed before the 24-second attack time passed before he advanced past half court.
Kobe came to the high post and leaned on Prince to ask for the ball.
Fisher lobbed the ball to Kobe.
In the second half of the first quarter, Kobe scored 8 points. Although his shooting percentage was low, it was not bad. The Eagles' defense was at its best.
Prince showed no expression, and pressed tightly against Kobe. Kobe pushed him away, and he immediately stuck back to him like a piece of candy.
Kobe's back-up to Prince was ineffective. He didn't dribble. He turned around to face Prince, bent his waist, and pushed his head into Prince's chest, trying to separate the space or cause a foul.
However, Prince is too experienced in guarding Kobe. He was beaten twice last season because Kobe was too strong. After Kobe lost weight and met Prince, it would be good to have a 40% improvement.
Kobe shook his shot, but Prince didn't take it. After shaking it several times in a row, Prince couldn't help but jump a little, no matter how good his defensive awareness was.
Kobe's triple threat made Prince jump slightly!
Kobe immediately accelerated towards the right and broke through from the middle. Prince had already jumped up, so he could only try his best to avoid it. If he pressed up, it would be a foul!
Kobe broke into the paint and was blocked by Kwame Brown. Kobe only had eyes for the basket and took off! Avoiding Kwame Brown's defensive pull-up layup...
Beautiful movements, picturesque!
But just when Kobe pulled the lever to avoid Kwame Brown's block and just threw the ball, one hand slapped the ball back towards Kobe!
Liu Mang quickly shrank to the inside, and when Kobe pulled the lever to avoid the block and shot triumphantly, he slapped the ball back into Kobe's arms!
Kobe almost fell down while holding the ball, but fortunately he stood firm and the ball was still in his hand!
Help yourself!
"Ding... the hot pot feast is triggered at level 5, and the host's blocking ability within the three-second zone is greatly improved..."
Liu Mang's shot-blocking ability was greatly improved because of Ben Wallace's star card, but that was an improvement in his overall shot-blocking ability. When he got to the basket, Liu Mang also triggered the shot-blocking ability brought by Ben Wallace's star card. Level 2 Hot Pot Feast is a more advanced version of your own Level 5 Hot Pot Feast with the bonus!
Moreover, when Kobe got to the basket, due to the effect of Liu Mang's temporary talent skills, his shots under the basket were less confusing and his layup speed also decreased, and he received a bloody hat from Liu Mang!
After Kobe stood firm, he took a step back into the three-second zone and threw another shot...
"Snapped……"
Liu Mang accurately judged the time for Kobe to take action and swatted the ball down again!
The assist king is not a boast, he is so fierce that he even assists himself. Kobe once again grabbed the ball and received two offensive rebounds in a row.
Kobe is still in the three-second zone. This time, Kobe can't pass the ball. There are a lot of people around him, including Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, and Josh Smith. They are all ready to grab the ball. Kobe has no space to pass the ball. Angular Fisher has no angle.
Kobe chose to make a comeback!
Kobe's avoidance action was even bigger this time. He half-turned his back to the basket, stretched the ball in a direction away from the basket, stuck his butt out to separate the space, and turned his back to the basket to look at the moon for a hook shot...
"Snapped……"
What a big hat!
Liu Mang gave Kobe another big hotpot!
Liu Mang blocked Kobe three times in a row!
This time, there were a lot of people under the basket. After the ball was shot by Liu Mang, he hit Kobe on the butt. There was a scramble for the basket. Kobe’s butt was poked several times by someone. When the ball finally went out of bounds, Kobe was lying on the ground. On the ground, with his butt stuck out, Kobe couldn't get up under the push of a group of two-meter-plus men!
The referee blew the whistle and the ball went out of bounds. He quickly came up to separate the players, fearing that Kobe would be injured.
After the players got out of the way, Kobe still kept the action of stretching out his right hand when making the hook, resting his left elbow on the ground, kneeling with his legs, and still sticking his butt out to separate the space.
The key is that there are six people standing next to him: Liu Mang, Yao Ming, Kwame Brown, Wang Zhizhi, Josh Smith, and Prince! All six of them were panting because of the fight. This posture...
The fans at the scene and those in front of the TV felt their anus tighten... For a time, Liu Mang's blood hating of Kobe Bryant three times was thrown aside by people.
Kobe also felt that this posture was a bit strange, but he couldn't show his expression. He took the hands of troublemakers and Devin George and stood up. He couldn't write the pain in his butt on his face, otherwise, others would really think it was happening. What.
The key is that his butt was really hit by something like a knee, and he was slapped by someone trying to grab the ball!
That's all, Kobe endured it. The key is that after the referee watched the defense, he confirmed that the ball hit Kobe's butt and bounced to the baseline, which was out of bounds. Not only was Kobe blocked on the offensive end, but he was also attacked on the butt by a group of people who were trying to grab the ball!
Kobe is going to explode!
Blocked three times in a row!
But for the sake of face, Kobe must remain calm, otherwise others will think that he was angry after being embarrassed.
Kobe is now a little skeptical about life. He thought about all the possibilities of being blocked and made all the evasive moves, but he didn't expect to be blocked by Liu Mang, especially the third shot. Kobe had been prepared for being blocked, but Liu Mang's judgment was too good. Before Kobe's back hook, he also faked a move, and Liu Mang didn't fall for it!
When people came back to their senses from Kobe's ambiguous posture, they remembered Liu Mang's block just now.
It's too exaggerated!
That bounce speed, that smell of blocking, it's simply too exaggerated!
Kobe was beaten like this in his first attack in the second quarter!
The first time was due to carelessness, the second was due to overconfidence, and the third time, his hook shot with his butt turned and his back to the basket was blocked. That was Liu Mang's blocking ability!
When Liu Mang blocked Kobe continuously, the Lakers players on the sidelines were stunned, and the Hawks bench was crazy. McGrady saw Kobe blocked by Liu Mang three times in a row, and he was already stepping on the sideline to cheer for Liu Mang crazily.
The fans at the scene didn't even know how to boo now.
Too tough!
When the referee confirmed which side hit the ball out of bounds, Liu Mang was high-fived by several teammates on the court.
Liu Mang, who was often ignored when high-fiving, finally felt the love of his teammates...
The referee signaled the Hawks to the backcourt ball.
The Hawks attacked, and Jason Terry passed the ball to Liu Mang after receiving the ball from the referee. Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and Kobe defended against Liu Mang.
Liu Mang's all-round shooting ability has decreased by two points now. There can be no mistakes when the masters fight.
The main reason is that Jason Terry came up, Liu Mang can slow down on the offensive end, and sort out the three big blocks just now. When he was defending against Devin George at a 45-degree angle on the right side, the feeling of the block was too good, and he wanted to sort it out.
Jason Terry singled out Fisher, just like playing, and made a mid-range jump shot and hit it!
The jet started!
Jason Terry is not afraid of playing against strong teams.
When it was the Lakers' offense, Kobe also had to slow down. Yao Ming came to the low post to block Kwame Brown to get to the position. Kwame Brown was very tough to defend Yao Ming in the low post.
Kobe passed the ball to Yao Ming, Yao Ming received the ball, and fiercely rushed towards Kwame Brown. After Kwame Brown was knocked back half a step, Yao Ming turned left and raised the ball and shot high!
Liu Mang took advantage of the fact that Yao Ming was focusing on the basket and avoiding Kwame Brown's interference when he turned around, and rushed over from behind and blocked the shot!
However, Yao Ming avoided it at the critical moment!
Yao Ming changed the ball he had raised to his left hand and threw it out. He was obviously very flustered. It was obvious that he only noticed Liu Mang's block at that time, and his left-handed high-raised shot missed!
Kwame Brown defended the defensive rebound!
Liu Mang was so regretful, he almost blocked it.
However, Yao Ming and others at the scene and in front of the TV were all surprised by Liu Mang's excellent help defense under the basket!
Liu Mang is not without help defense ability. On the contrary, Liu Mang's help defense ability is second only to Josh Smith in the Hawks, and is better than Iguodala's help defense effect. Iguodala is more versatile on the defensive end.
But Liu Mang's help defense is strong in double-teaming and help defense against breakthrough players. This kind of block and shooting interference under the basket is not Liu Mang's forte.
But this time, Liu Mang felt like he was going to block the restricted area on the defensive end!
If Liu Mang was asked to defend the inside one-on-one, it would definitely not work. But now, his assisting defense on the inside was causing Yao Ming to suffer a great loss!
