Chapter 1093 1092. Training to Be Completed Soon (Asking for Monthly Votes)
"Ace, how long will you practice such boring things every day?" Emmanuel complained, "I think it's more fun for you to practice shooting. I can even count how many goals you scored."
"Soon, after training tomorrow morning, the morning of the day after tomorrow, and the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, my training session will be over." Liu Mang replied.
Seeing Emmanuel's "baby is tired and thinner" look, Liu Mang couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, okay, after I finish training, I'll invite you to the nightclub to play. You can take it away or eat in. It's up to you."
Emmanuel's body trembled: "Really? Ahem, Ace, I'm not tired, not tired at all. Do you want to practice for a while?"
Seeing Emmanuel's look, Liu Mang said speechlessly: "You go back and rest first. I'll go back after physical therapy. See you at 7:30 tomorrow morning."
Emmanuel cheered and packed up and left. Liu Mang went to take a shower first.
While taking a shower, Liu Mang checked the progress of Gary Payton's defensive training card.
Fourteen and a half training sessions have been completed, and there is one and a half training sessions left, which is 12 hours of training, and the training is completed!
In January, except for the game against the Lakers on the 1st, Liu Mang will take half a day to train whenever he is free in the next 20 days. If he plays at home, because the Hawks do not have back-to-back games at home this month, Liu Mang will directly practice all day on the rest day. Unfortunately, there are very few home games in the first twelve games this month. Most of the time, Liu Mang practices for half a day on the morning of the game, or in the evening of the day of the away game. If he has a good relationship with the star of the home team, he will go to the gym to practice for four hours in the evening of the day.
With all the time, the training session of this star card will be completed unknowingly.
Liu Mang does not know what effect bonus he will get after the training session, but even without those bonuses, Liu Mang is frantically training these seemingly boring things, but the effect has been shown in the game.
For many defensive actions that require consciousness, Liu Mang often subconsciously reacts according to the simulated situation in training.
Not necessarily all right. Sometimes when defending top stars like Carter and Pierce, the opponent will take advantage of this subconscious reaction inertia, but it is very effective against role players!
Single defense, except for the few first-defense players every year, they have to be selected in the year of the first-defense. Others single-defense superstars or even top stars, in fact, it is difficult to have a particularly big effect. It is good to be able to limit a little. The reason why the first defense is the first defense, and the first defense selected by the coach is because they are better at defense than the second defense and non-best defensive lineup players, and can have a certain limit on top stars and even superstars.
Of course, this is just a limit.
Good defense is the defensive effect against first-class stars and ordinary stars. For example, a star with an ability rating of 80-84 normally averages 15 or 16 points per game. If they can limit them to two or three points below the average score per game, it is a very successful defense. Let the players on your side score below the average performance, which is a successful contribution on the defensive end.
At this point, Liu Mang thought of the King of JDZ who scored 50+ with an ability rating of 79, and was very sure that his idea was correct.
After taking a shower and doing physical therapy, Liu Mang drove back home.
After returning to Atlanta at noon today, Liu Mang went straight to the gym, looked at the schedule for the next game, and started training.
However, Liu Mang felt that such days were quite interesting for this long season. He had a clear goal and knew in which aspects he should improve himself. This was much better than most players who played games aimlessly at this time and didn't know what to do.
Most of these players are first- and second-year players. They want to improve themselves, but don't know how to improve. They think training is too tiring to hone their skills. They want to become fat in one go, and the rookie wall follows.
Liu Mang has passed this stage. Now, even if there is any opportunity to improve himself, he will train frantically to avoid his strength stagnating before the peak of physiology and technology, 26-29 years old, and improve himself as much as possible.
…
"Uncle..."
Liu Mang had just parked the car and walked out of the garage. The little loli who ran out after hearing the sound ran over and jumped into Liu Mang's arms.
Liu Mang quickly caught her and carried her to the door. When they got to the door, she came down. After celebrating her 11th birthday last December, she rarely came to Liu Mang's arms when there were people around, but she was still so clingy when there were no people around.
The little girl took Liu Mang's hand and walked into the door.
"Ace, you're back. Go wash up. We'll have dinner soon." Alexia came out in an apron and said, then went back to the kitchen to continue preparing dinner with Liu Mang's mother.
"Okay." Liu Mang responded.
Seeing his father holding a cradle with one hand, his baby daughter was sleeping soundly in the cradle on his right hand. His father was watching the game between the Lakers and the Bobcats, gnashing his teeth. The TV was not turned on. Although Liu Mang's father gnashed his teeth, he didn't say anything for fear of waking up the child.
Liu Mang looked at the newly bought super large LCD TV, which was bigger than the one in Kobe's house. The key point was that in this huge picture that looked like a small movie screen, the Lakers were trailing the Bobcats by more than 20 points at 69 to 92. Liu Mang silently said in his heart that they served it right.
The Lakers' cat phobia started when the Bobcats entered the NBA.
Liu Mang ran over and poked Avril's face with his finger, which was tender. The little girl also came up and poked the other side.
The two smiled at each other and continued to poke.
Levia, who came down from upstairs with a bunch of red things, couldn't help rolling her eyes when she saw Liu Mang and the little girl's behavior.
"Ace, don't wake Avril up, Dina, you too, why are you as naughty as your uncle, you are an adult!" Levia complained.
"Oh..." The little girl took back her hand regretfully, it was really tender and cute.
Liu Mang felt something was wrong when he heard this, and was about to have a good argument, Levia came over: "Ace, put these things on, Christine and I bought a lot of things today, we are so tired, I'm going to take a shower first."
Liu Mang got up and took the pile of red things, looked at them, there were lanterns, paper cuttings, and a bunch of things related to the Chinese New Year.
It is not easy to buy these things in the United States...
Liu Mang thought of the Spring Festival battle with the Spurs. When he was watching the schedule at noon, his attention was focused on the New Year's battle in the evening. He forgot that the morning of that day was exactly the New Year's Eve in China!
Thinking that this year was the first time in his life to celebrate the New Year with his parents, Liu Mang shouted to his father Liu Lijie who was gritting his teeth in front of the TV: "Dad, I love you!"
Hearing this, Liu Mang's father turned his head and looked at Liu Mang in astonishment.
Liu Mang saw his father's shocked expression and felt very proud: What do you think, you have never felt such a direct expression, hahahaha...
But...Liu Mang's father first looked at the two cradles, and the two babies did not wake up, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Liu Mang: "Go away! Don't wake up my grandchildren!"
"..."
Liu Mang felt sadly that he was definitely his own child!
...
It was another week without going home, and Liu Mang felt so good to have dinner at home.
Liu Mang thinks that Chinese people are better than people in any other country in the world at making food delicious and varied, even low-fat and low-sugar food.
Even an ordinary housewife in China has creativity in this area. Liu Mang's mother is like this, and now she is helping Alexia's cooking skills get better and better.
After dinner, Liu Mang held Avril, Levia held Becas, and the little girl started watching cartoons.
"Ace, starting at 6 pm on the 27th, it should be New Year's Eve, right?" Levia asked.
"Yes, BJ time after 5 o'clock is New Year's Eve on the 28th." Liu Mang responded.
"Do you think we should have a party? It's lively and lively, your parents like it very much." Levia suggested.
Liu Mang also saw that the two old people like lively and lively, especially Liu Mang's mother. Now she has been working hard to learn English for more than half a year. There is no problem with daily communication. She can even bring her bodyguard to the Six Nations Park to dance square dance.
"This is a good idea. It can become a tradition of our family to have a lively party every year." Liu Mang felt that this idea was great.
"Okay, I'll contact restaurants with Chinese and other chefs tomorrow. By the way, Ace, should we invite the Spurs players? They should be here on the 27th." Compared to Liu Mang, Levia is more concerned about Liu Mang's schedule.
"Spurs... Just invite GDP, I'm not familiar with the others."
"Okay..."
...
After a night's rest at home, the next morning, Liu Mang took a shower and had breakfast after running with Little Lolita. He asked Leviata, who got up early, to send Little Lolita to school. Liu Mang went to Phillips Arena to continue training defense. Emmanuel was more active than ever this time.
It makes sense that if you eat someone's food, you will be short-handed.
Liu Mang practiced half of the Gary Payton defensive training card training course. At noon, he attended the team's pre-match meeting. Then, in the afternoon, he had a simple team training. Then, he ushered in a "revenge battle".
New Jersey Nets!
7 days ago, when the Hawks started a devilish 7-day 5-game road trip, the Hawks lost to the Nets in the first game.
At that time, there was no time to feel resentful about the game. The Hawks immediately flew to Chicago and immediately started a 5-day 4-game journey.
Now back at home to the Nets, the Hawks want revenge!
Liu Mang looked at the Nets' 21-20 record and the 76ers' 22-19 record. The two teams are competing for the fourth place in the Eastern Conference. Both teams are trying to win now because the two teams are in the same division, the first and second in the Atlantic Division. The overall ranking in the Eastern Conference is either fourth or seventh in the Eastern Conference. The opponents in the playoffs are very different. If they are fourth, they will play against James, who is likely to play in the playoffs for the first time as the fifth in the Eastern Conference. If they are seventh in the Eastern Conference... they will play against the Heat with O'Neal and Wade...
Not only is there a huge difference in ranking, but the strength of the opponents is also very different. Playing against the Cavaliers led by playoff rookie James, both the 76ers and the Nets feel that they have a good chance of winning, but playing against the Heat... just don't play, just go fishing in Miami. Miami's sea fishing is as famous as Los Angeles.
"Boss Allen, I'll help you right away!"
Seeking monthly votes~ I was woken up by the sound of an electric drill next door at around 5:00 but not 6:00, so I got up and wrote more than 2,000 words. I updated it immediately after I got to the company and finished it. The update time at noon remains the same, around 1:00~
