Chapter 1426 1425. The Little Loli Who Is Disappointed with the Iron (Asking for Monthly Votes)

Although the worst plan made by the Hawks coaching staff is to lose both away games, and then defend their two home courts and drag the game into the decisive battle.

This is the plan made by the Hawks coach after analyzing the strength of the two teams.

The strength is similar, and the Bulls have the home advantage, so it is very difficult for the Hawks to win the away game, and the first game is the most difficult.

But at the same time, the Hawks also believe that they will defend their home court very well.

When the strength is almost the same, the home advantage is very important.

Just like the series between the Jazz and the Nuggets, the two teams tied in the first four games, and the Magic and the Raptors also tied, and the key battle is the fifth game.

The Nuggets defended the decisive battle at home, and the Nuggets entered the second round and entered the Western Conference Finals; the Magic won the decisive battle on the road, dragged all the way to the seventh game, and defeated the Raptors in the seventh game and won the series.

The results of these two teams are the psychological bottom line of the Hawks.

Fight for the decisive game.

But...

Liu Mang really can't afford to lose the second game!

"Iron-blooded tough guy: Mission goal 1: Win at least one of the first two games in the series with the Bulls (not completed); Mission goal 2: Get at least 30 points in a single game (not completed.)"

Looking at the penalty of failure, he had to dance the bullfighting dance before the home game. The most annoying thing was the negative buff of the "bullfighter".

30 points in a single game, win the first two games, and the two tasks were just a little bit short of each game.

Just a little bit short!

One was 6 points short, and the other was 3 points short.

This forced Liu Mang to win the second game and get 30 points in a single game in the second game.

This was painful. Liu Mang only successfully shot 20 times in the first game, and only made 8 shots. The 40% hit rate was too far from his normal performance.

Liu Mang originally planned to complete at least one of the two, but playing against the Bulls, if you want to score points, you can't take care of the team's victory. If you want to win, it's difficult to take care of things like the number of shots and points.

In the end, both goals were not completed.

"If I had known we would lose, I would have thrown it 50 times!"

Liu Mang started to draw the lottery to see if he could draw a useful star card.

After the first game, Liu Mang already knew what he needed to deal with the Bulls.

Inside scorer! Low-post maniac!

The 76ers were able to tie the Bulls 3-1 in the regular season this season, thanks to Andre Miller's hips.

Originally, the Hawks also used Grant Hill to target this, but Grant Hill was OK for a few singles, but he always played singles... He is 34 years old. Even if Thomas Carter said he could play without restrictions, his age and past injury history were there, so Coach Kruger dared not use him blindly. Such a cheap and useful veteran star, Coach Kruger still wants to use him in the next few years.

As long as Grant Hill recovers, even if he is 35 years old at the beginning of next season, he is still very capable, and his salary is within the middle class, which is a high-quality asset.

David Lee, who was originally highly expected, was too soft in front of Garnett. He didn't dare to shoot, and Garnett defended him tightly when he was shooting.

This kind of thing can't just remind him not to be timid. Didn't Gasol in the 2008 Finals in the original time and space know that he shouldn't be timid?

Of course he knew, but Garnett's pressure was too strong. Gasol didn't get tough until he defeated Howard in the 2009 Finals and faced Gasol in the 2010 Finals.

And the gap between David Lee and Gasol...

"System boss, please give me some face, draw a lottery, designate a star card..."

...

Liu Mang was having a headache, thinking deeply, drawing a lottery, and suffering the pain of the disappearance of the superstar value of 10,000.

However, the Hawks lost the first game, but it was not too unexpected by the fans.

It was normal to lose the first game. If they won, the fans' evaluation of the Hawks would be raised to a higher level, but losing the first away game would not lower the fans' evaluation of the Hawks.

Just like the Lakers defended their home court, the Bulls defended their first home court, which was expected by the fans.

After the Suns defeated the Spurs, people's assessment of the Suns' strength was not far from that of the Lakers.

The Hawks' strength assessment was actually lower than that of the Bulls.

The two teams in the two series were not far apart in strength in the eyes of fans and the media, so it was not easy for fans to win away games.

After the first game between the two teams, the fans felt that the decisive game was the destination of the two series.

This made the fans very much looking forward to the seven-game series in these two series... It was undoubtedly a carnival for the fans!

The referee's obvious home whistle, not giving Liu Mang a whistle under the basket, proved that the league also wanted to see this happen.

Although Liu Mang got 12 free throws in the first game, he only had two free throws in the paint. The referee gave him a whistle for being violated on the outside, but not on the inside.

If you can make the shot, you are great. If you can't make the shot, you are just a scapegoat. This is the referee's attitude at the Bulls' home court.

…

The Nuggets beat the Warriors, the Lakers beat the Suns, and the Bulls beat the Hawks. The three teams with home court advantage all defended their first home court.

On May 4, it was the fourth game day of the second round of the playoffs. The game day for the first series of the last group of the four groups of divisional semifinals arrived.

In the first three series, the teams with home court advantage won, and all the pressure was on the Cavaliers.

After the Magic advanced on May 1, they arrived in Cleveland the next day to prepare for the game.

Chandler vs. Howard, James vs. Rahim, Turkoglu vs. Peja, a very attractive matchup.

However, on this day, an equally important thing was announced.

At 9 a.m. on May 4, 2007, the NBA officially announced that Kevin Garnett won the regular season's best defensive player award with 41% of the votes, beating Marcus Camby with 27%, Tim Duncan with 13%, Ace Liu with 7%, Kwame Brown with 5% and Kobe Bryant with 3%, with 41% of the votes.

No officials from the Hawks contacted him in advance, so Liu Mang knew that this award had nothing to do with his team.

However, he still got up early in the morning to watch the award announcement on TV with Little Loli.

"It's that guy. He will definitely show off before the game tomorrow to retaliate against me for showing off the MVP trophy yesterday, right, Dina..."

"..."

Liu Mang took the initiative to find a topic, but the little girl ignored him.

"Tonight is the series between the Cavaliers and the Magic. Dina, who do you think will make it to the Eastern Conference Finals?"

"..."

Liu Mang was ignored again.

However, Liu Mang was not embarrassed. Since last night, the little girl didn't want to talk to him, and she was used to it.

"It's exciting to play against the Cavaliers and the Magic. We have LeBron against the Cavaliers and Sharif against the Magic. It's very attractive to play against them." Liu Mang continued to be a self-proclaimed person, "I don't know who I should support..."

Just when Liu Mang was imagining the different feelings of playing against these two people, a dissatisfied voice came: "First of all, we have to win this series!"

Liu Mang grabbed the little girl and put her on his lap and asked: "Dina, are you so unconfident?"

"You are bragging to me, uncle, what we will definitely win the second game, uncle, have you found a way to win the second game? We should show weakness! Show weakness! Let them be careless and relax! Uncle, you are so good," the little girl looked like she was disappointed.

After losing the game yesterday, Little Loli didn't think it was a big deal. It's hard to win away from home in the playoffs, but they didn't lose much in the first game. In the second game, they had a chance to beat the opponent if they were a little relaxed after winning a game. But Liu Mang's words might alert the Bulls... and there is a high probability that the Bulls players will be alerted, which made Little Loli very unhappy. She ignored Liu Mang since last night.

"Show weakness? You said to show weakness to that iron-blooded guy? I don't want to be beaten to death!" Liu Mang knew to be low-key, but when he saw Garnett's annoying smug expression next door, he couldn't help but say that.

You can't give in to that guy!

Dina looked at this unlucky uncle who was stupid when he met Garnett and Kobe, and she had a headache.

"Alas, uncle is too stupid, poor uncle's teammates..." Little Loli collapsed into Liu Mang's arms helplessly and closed her eyes.

"Hey, why are you sleeping in the daytime, get up." Liu Mang poked Little Loli's face and said.

"I can't get up. I was so angry that Dina didn't sleep well last night. Uncle can only leave after Dina falls asleep!" The little girl was very unhappy.

Liu Mang looked at the time. It was still early for the team meeting at 11 o'clock. It was only a 20-minute drive from the United Center. Liu Mang let the little girl sleep in his arms for a while and put her back to bed when she fell asleep.

As for the two girls, they took the two kids to a housewife gathering. All the participants were housewives with children between 1 and 3 years old. Some of them were alumni of Alexia and Liu Mang. The gathering was held in Chicago.

Liu Mang looked at the star cards in the system space and drew a peak star card of Michael Reed, with an ability rating of 90, which was really good. There was also a peak star card of Damir Lillard, with an ability rating of 94, which surprised Liu Mang.

But this was not what he wanted!

At least it doesn't work against the Bulls. Liu Mang feels that even Durant's star card doesn't work. Using Durant's star card will most likely make him miserable like Durant in the original time and space when the Thunder was defeated by the Grizzlies 4-1 in the 12-13 season.

It's not that Durant's star card is not useful, but that no matter how good the outside line is, it will be greatly restricted against the Bulls.

He spent 170,000 superstar points, drew 12 star cards, and got two top star cards. It's not that he lost money, but he didn't get the star cards of the stars with strong outside and low post strength that Liu Mang wanted, but two stars with strong outside line strength.

Good things are good things, 170,000 is not a loss, but it can't be used now!

At this time, Liu Mang didn't have the heart to experience Reed's two skills of fast shooting master and absolute calmness, and he didn't have the heart to feel the "Changtian" strength of Lillard's star card.

He wants a low-post singles master!

I originally had one, but... Liu Mang was really reluctant to use it...

But now that things have come to this, Liu Mang has made plans to squander it!
