Chapter 1501 1500. The Spurs Are Amazing, the Gangsters Are Mighty (Asking for Monthly Tickets)

People are ruthless and don't talk much. I am Brother Deng in society!

Duncan is becoming more and more social, but Liu Mang still has nothing to do with this guy!

The key is that Duncan's reputation has always been very good. Even the Eagles fans at the scene couldn't hate Duncan when they saw his behavior. Instead, they couldn't help laughing.

Liu Mang is so depressed!

"We have to find a way to fix this facial paralysis!" Liu Mang hated him so much!

He actually forgot about the god damn number one power forward in history!

Soon, it was almost five o'clock, and the referee signaled others to leave the field, and the starting players of both teams could take the field.

On the Spurs side, the starting lineup has been slightly adjusted, with Parker, Battier, Bowen, Oberto, and Duncan appearing in the starting lineup.

Each of the Spurs' five starting players averaged more than 6 points per game. Bowen, the worst player, averaged just 6 points per game. He averaged 1.2 and nearly 1.3 three-pointers per game, and his three-point shooting percentage exceeded 40%. But no player averaged more than 18 points per game, with Parker averaging 17.8 points per game.

For the Hawks, as before, the starting lineup of Rondo, Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady, Marion, and Kwame Brown appeared.

At five o'clock sharp, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air...

Old Dengtou caused trouble right from the start! Duncan, whose weight dropped from 120 kilograms to 113 kilograms, has a slightly worse jumping ability than Kwame Brown, but his wingspan is better. He got the ball first with a slight advantage!

Kwame Brown lost the jump ball!

Duncan is the same height as Kwame Brown. His bounce and flexibility have improved slightly after losing weight. Duncan won the jump ball with his 2.31 meter wingspan which is several centimeters longer than Kwame Brown.

The ball was pointed backward by Duncan, and the Spurs attacked first!

One year older, Duncan's efficiency value increased from 24.6 last season to 26.8, the fourth-highest level in his career, and his jump ball actually became even better!

Although unexpected, the Eagles did not lose focus and immediately retreated to the three-point line defense.

Rondo waited for Parker to advance, Liu Mang followed Bowen, and McGrady followed Battier.

Unlike Bowen in the past, after Liu Mang followed Bowen to the corner, Bowen did not wait in the corner like before. After seeing Parker advance, Bowen moved from the corner into the left corner near the three-second zone. Position, blocking Marion who was following Oberto, Liu Mang quickly changed his defense to Oberto, trying to go around to prevent Oberto from catching the ball.

Oberto did not choose to rely on Liu Mang to gain position and run back. Liu Mang's block at the basket made the Argentine insider very afraid. Oberto pulled out and ran to the top corner on the right side of the free throw line. When Liu Mang continued to go around, , Oberto suddenly turned around...

Liu Mang saw a group of two-meter-one players running around Oberto. Kwame Brown was blocked by Oberto!

At this time, Battier went to the left mid-range to block Marion. Bowen returned to the bottom corner again. McGrady switched to defend Bowen in the bottom corner, broke through to the free throw line and passed the ball to Parker who could not get rid of Rondo. In the hands of Shane Battier in the middle distance on the left!

At the same time, after Oberto blocked Kwame Brown, he quickly pulled to the right baseline and took Kwame Brown out. Duncan, who had just ran out, cut back to the inside, and the person blocking Duncan was... Liu Mang!

Battier caught the ball and threw the ball to the right side of the basket without stopping!

"Depend on!"

Liu Mang roared and jumped with all his strength. He didn't know why the person in front of him became Duncan and was compressed into the basket. When he heard the system prompt that Battier was about to pass to Duncan, Liu Mang was already there. Facing Duncan under the basket, I can only try my best to block shots...

"Snapped"

A crisp slap sounded, and at the same time there was the sound of Duncan taking the ball and pressing it into the basket...

"beep"

The referee's whistle was delayed a beat, but it was blown anyway. Liu Mang fouled Duncan in shooting. The goal was valid and an additional penalty was imposed!

Liu Mang's slap hit Duncan on the face...

After being slapped in the face, Duncan turned around and walked to the free throw line expressionlessly as if nothing was wrong, waiting for the additional penalty.

Textbook-level teamwork!

Seeing Duncan walking to the free throw line without expression after being slapped, Liu Mang felt that he was in trouble!

After the Spurs' first attack, Liu Mang sensed a very troublesome situation.

Although it was Duncan who scored, Liu Mang felt that the Spurs did not have a relatively clear offensive leader. It felt like anyone could shoot and anyone dared to shoot.

Mainly the Spurs' three perimeter players...it's hard to say who poses the greatest threat! Theoretically speaking, Parker is the strongest, but each of the three has its own characteristics. Battier's second pass, Bowen is the Spurs' most accurate three-pointer, Duncan and Oberto both have mid-range shots that cannot be missed, and Parker cannot break through. Already, the Spurs' style of play demonstrates the advantages and threats of the starting five players as much as possible!

Compared with the original time and space in the 13-14 season, many fans who did not watch football only looked at the player list and could not understand how the Spurs' old, weak and weak lineup defeated the Big Three. Now Parker and Duncan are at their peak. With this style of play, Liu Mang felt no less pressure than the Lakers brought to him in last year's finals!

Only Popovich can do it if Battier uses Gasol.

The most important thing is the "Born King Level 5" triggered by Duncan at the beginning of the game. Duncan is the inner support of the Spurs players and the key to the confidence of the Spurs role players! The Spurs players have nothing to fear because they have Duncan on the team and the number one power forward in history as their backing!

Players who are good at free throws are not worthy of competing with peak O'Neal for first place in the league. Duncan missed the extra free throw, Kwame Brown and Marion blocked the ball, and Liu Mang collected the defensive rebound.

The Spurs had long expected that Duncan would miss half the free throw. They didn't even compete with Marion and Kwame Brown for rebounds. Duncan threw the free throw and the rest of the Spurs began to retreat.

Liu Mang passed the ball to Rondo and took the lead in speeding up the field.

The opponent retreats quickly, and the Eagles still want to speed up. The three Spurs frontcourt players, Oberto, Duncan, and Bowen, are all over 30 years old, and their physical fitness is definitely not as good as that of the Eagles.

After Liu Mang reached the frontcourt, Battier defended him. Liu Mang immediately ran to the left at a 45-degree angle to open up space.

Three-point defense and switching defense are what the Spurs do very well. No matter what their lineup looks like, they have always defended three-pointers very well. Under the basket, there is Duncan, the number one power forward in history with excessive static physical fitness. He is also the old man who currently ranks first in the league in comprehensive defensive evaluation. The offensive choice made by the Eagles from the beginning was very clear.

McGrady came to the right mid-range and leaned on Bowen to ask for the ball!

After Rondo passed the ball to McGrady, he cut inside. Rondo staying on the outside was equivalent to giving McGrady a double-team gift package. Only by cutting in can he be a threat. Liu Mang's finishing ability at the basket ranks among the top five point guards in the league. The lowest field goal percentage ranks third among point guards in the league, surpassing Paul. The first and second best field goal percentage among point guards in the three-second area happens to be on the court. Parker is first, Rondo is second, and there are no three-pointers, no field goals, or even field goals. Rondo's shooting percentage can exceed 50% when he throws like Parker, relying on his ability to score at the basket.

McGrady received the ball, waited until Rondo took away the defense, ignored Bowen, turned his back and shot a mid-range shot...

Bowen saw McGrady turn around and took a step back. McGrady turned around and easily hit the ball from mid-range.

This is the advantage of the Hawks. There are mid-range experts like Mitsubishi who cannot be defended by the Spurs' system. Battier is the Spurs' best perimeter defender. Their system can defend three-pointers and the basket very well. Therefore, the Eagles' offensive strategy is to open up space for whomever Battier is guarding.

The Eagles retreated immediately after scoring the goal. The Spurs did not press the rhythm as before, and there was no psychological fluctuation after being shot. Duncan picked up the ball and released it, and the Spurs advanced at a brisk pace compared to the past. .

The Spurs are attacking again!

Unlike others who have not yet truly realized the horror of the Spurs, the Spurs' opening 9-game winning streak was surprising, but the Spurs have always been a strong team. Fans and the media were just surprised by the change in the Spurs' style of play, but Liu Mang Knowing that a group of "old, weak, sick and disabled" members of the Spurs could completely defeat the Heat's Big Three, the psychological effect made Liu Mang feel very uneasy.

"Calm down, I have to be calm, and I have to judge the opponent's support in the mid-range. It seems that the opponent is passing the ball quickly, but the essence is still high-position support from Battier and Duncan..."

Liu Mang worked hard to analyze the Spurs' style of play, tried hard to put aside his fear of the Spurs, who were originally invincible in the 12-14 seasons, and devoted himself to the game.

"Oberto's ability evaluation is 79, his ability to eat cakes is strong, his offensive evaluation is only 77, and his only strength is an 85 mid-range shooting evaluation. He only averages 4.8 points per game with a 60% shooting rate. He is the lowest threat and has the awareness to block people but does not pass. The ball...Duncan and Battier are the core of the offense, Parker breaks through and scores, Bowen picks and rolls and three-pointers..."

Liu Mang followed Bowen while analyzing the characteristics of the Spurs' starting lineup in the previous round. When Bowen moved inside to prepare for the pick-and-roll, Liu Mang moved up one step ahead and stood between Bowen and Oberto. Give Bowen a chance to block Marion.

Liu Mang moved much faster than Bowen and blocked the Spurs' first off-ball pick-and-roll!

Oberto failed to get rid of Marion and did not stop. He immediately turned around and moved from the left side of the three-second zone to the right side of the three-second zone, helping Duncan block Kwame Brown. The Eagles quickly changed defense inside and Marion changed defense. When Duncan comes here, it's much better than when Liu Mang switched defenses.

Duncan did not shrink in, but continued to move out to help Parker block Rondo.

Marion quickly blocked Parker, and Duncan took a step inside the top arc. From this position, he was not worried about Duncan shooting directly against Rondo. This was not Duncan's shooting range.

Parker encountered Marion's defense and it was really difficult to fight. He passed the ball to Duncan who was one step inside the top arc. Duncan received the ball and avoided Rondo's long arm that wanted to steal. Duncan, who had solid basic skills, stepped sideways to separate Rondo. After a lot of distance, turn around and break through!

Duncan's ability to control the ball is very good. He protects the ball sideways and rushes in. Rondo can't do anything.

However, Duncan definitely does not have any emergency stop jumpers when he breaks through at this position. Although he also has a top mid-range shooting ability of 94, there is definitely a big gap between him and Nowitzki. This allows Kwame Brown to move inside the free throw line to help defend. time.

Liu Mang has been observing the situation on the court, seeing Duncan's breakthrough and the movement of his teammates...

"Rejecting horse level 5 trigger, Tim Duncan - Fabricio Oberto."

This time Liu Mang had predicted it. Before the system prompts were finished, Liu Mang had already moved inside!

Sure enough, after Duncan attracted Kwame Brown, he passed the ball to the right side of the three-second zone. After receiving the ball, Oberto took a step forward to dunk...

"Snapped"

This time it wasn't a slap in the face, Liu Mang slapped the ball that Oberto had raised with both hands!

Blood cap! The scene exploded!

The shot-blocking king among historical defenders!

Liu Mang slapped the ball and jumped very high. When Liu Mang slapped the ball down, it bounced out of bounds on Oberto's shoulder!

Oberto didn't stand firmly after landing and sat on the ground!

"Why is this guy here? How did he know that I was the end point of the tactic?" Oberto looked at Liu Mang and walked out of bounds with a pout, feeling unacceptable!

Duncan didn't expect Liu Mang to take it in. Bowen's containment in the previous round was still very strong. After all, he was the strongest three-point shooter of the Spurs.

As for Liu Mang... He knew that as long as the ball was in Oberto's hands, he couldn't get out. This guy's shooting rate at the basket was more than 70%, and his ability to eat cakes was excellent, comparable to Kwame Brown, but he didn't pass the ball!

Just when the Hawks were preparing to attack, Popovich called a timeout!

The game was played for only one minute, but the fans at the scene were used to it. They, the Hawks and the Spurs, are famous for this aspect...
