Chapter 1505 1504. Hatred, Revenge! (Asking for Monthly Votes)

Publicly stated that the Spurs system is better than the Hawks system?

If someone else saw such a punishment, it would probably be a headache.

No one wants to offend their coaching staff or hurt the morale of their team. The team's face is very important.

But for Liu Mang... Liu Mang didn't feel too bad about failing to get Duncan's star card. Duncan's star card is very expensive in terms of the system's valuation, but it is very ordinary for him. Liu Mang has used O'Neal's star card before, and the effect is quite ordinary.

Such a punishment...

Liu Mang didn't know what to say in the interview. Seeing the reporters surrounding him, Liu Mang left with just one sentence.

"Please watch the second season of "Details" on time."

...

After finishing physical therapy, Liu Mang returned home and received a call from ESPN, making an appointment for the recording of the show.

Since he decided to do it, Liu Mang wanted to do his best. After hanging up the phone, he went to the living room and immediately turned on the computer, wanting to carefully study the recordings of the Spurs' 10 games at the beginning of the season that he had brought back from the coaching staff.

"Snake Studies" has become popular in the basketball world. The Spurs are probably the best at using it except for the Hawks. In time, the Spurs are expected to use it better than the Hawks.

Liu Mang doesn't mind other teams learning from them. The more teams learn from them, the more it proves that he is good, and "Snake Studies" can have a more far-reaching impact.

This is very important for Liu Mang to "go down in history". His goal is to become a celebrity, and Liu Mang certainly doesn't want to be infamous for thousands of years...

The program "Details" is the beginning of "Snake Studies". Now Liu Mang wants to continue the "professionalism" of this program.

Then, the second season of "Details" that is about to begin must be well prepared. This season, each team has changed a lot, and those strong teams have new things to analyze.

Before watching the video, Liu Mang went online first, wanting to see the news about the Spurs during the beginning of the season, and wanted to prepare the program from the aspects of player changes such as trades.

The skills related to program production that Liu Mang drew with nearly one million rogue points made him more and more proficient in this aspect.

If you do something, you should do it to the best of your ability!

However, when searching for the keyword "Spurs", the first news was tonight's news. Liu Mang saw that it was related to Duncan, clicked it and immediately felt a little bit of pain in his balls.

"San Antonio Spurs superstar Tim Duncan was unwilling to leave the Phillips Arena after the game because of his worst free throw performance in his career. He practiced free throws for two hours in the Phillips Arena..."

Looking at this news, Liu Mang felt that Duncan was about to start to improve again!

"This idiot seems to have started to practice free throws after 2010. What's the reason? Let me think, it seems that in the second round of the 2010 playoffs, this idiot made 16 of 34 free throws, with a hit rate of more than 40%, which led to the Spurs being swept by the Suns in the second round. At that time, he was criticized for a long time, saying that he was too old and no longer good. His free throw hit rate increased to 71% in the next season... It's really annoying. Didn't I just cut you for one game?"

Liu Mang complained in his heart, and wrote that Duncan's free throws might improve in the content of the program to be recorded. He was going to analyze this aspect as well, and analyze how unsolvable the Spurs system would be if Duncan developed free throws.

Liu Mang would not feel sorry for analyzing the opponent's strengths and weaknesses to others, and he would not have any idea of ​​"cherishing his own things".

Anyway, it's the opponent's problem. The more teams target it, the more problems this team may expose, and it may also allow Liu Mang to find new ways to solve the problems. After all, he is not omnipotent.

Liu Mang continued to search for news about the Spurs and found that most of the news was about the Spurs becoming popular in the past few days. The Spurs were really unloved before. As a favorite team to win the championship, the news was not as good as the Knicks news after Randolph got it. Apart from the briefings on a few transactions and signings of the Spurs, there was really no news about the Spurs.

Even when Artest refused to renew his contract with the Spurs and went to the Rockets in the same state as the Spurs, no one broke the news about the reason. The Spurs lost a former best defensive player and still failed to attract media attention...

"It's so miserable. No wonder that idiot has nothing to do and has to look for opportunities to appear on TV..."

Liu Mang was speechless for a while and began to watch the video, mainly the Spurs' offensive tactics. He watched for a while, thought for a while, and wrote on the copy for a while...

...

...

The Hawks defeated the Spurs to end the Spurs' nine-game winning streak, but it did not have much impact on the Spurs. On November 16, the Spurs played back-to-back against the Bobcats after playing against the Hawks, and they won 38 points with a score of 99 to 61...

The Hawks can take advantage of Duncan's free throw difference, but other teams may not be able to take advantage of it. It is true that Duncan repeatedly went to the free throw line, which hindered the Spurs' offense, but this will not affect the Spurs' defense!

The Hawks were able to beat the Spurs in the second half because they had a bunch of players who could shoot mid-range shots, especially Liu Mang, McGrady, and Jason Terry, who maintained a 45% mid-range shooting rate, forcing the Spurs to replace Duncan to strengthen their offense.

But the Bobcats obviously couldn't do that. They cut Duncan, forcing the Spurs into a corner, and they played against the Bobcats, beating them to only 61 points.

For the Hawks, they will play away games against the Timberwolves and the Heat on the 18th and 20th; they will return to their home court on the 21st to play back-to-back games against the Bucks; they will play away games against the 76ers and the Kings on the 24th and 26th.

The schedule is easy during this period, but it will be difficult when it comes to the last two games in November!

On the 28th, they will play against the Bulls away, and on the 30th, they will play against the Mavericks at home. The two Bulls are coming!

Playing against the Spurs exposed many problems on the Hawks side, the first of which is execution!

The Spurs' running-in is always very fast, mainly due to the strict team discipline set by Popovich.

The Hawks' discipline is also very strict, but it is mainly strict in terms of team rules and requirements for the players themselves...

With Liu Mang, the training maniac, leading the team, there have been no major problems, but that is mainly because the Hawks were all young players before, and with a leader, they will follow suit. This is just like parents educating their children. The performance of the leader will make the young players follow suit.

But there are some problems with veterans. They have their own unique requirements for themselves. Some are extremely strict with themselves, such as Michael Finley and Brad Miller. There are also those who are easily frustrated like O'Neal, and those who need to be watched like Gasol...

The good thing for the Hawks is that this group of people want to win the championship this year, and they want to win the championship when they still have certain abilities, and they don't want to be pure thigh-clinging players.

So although the Hawks' execution is relatively weak, everyone is working hard, which is good, but the coaching staff needs to do more.

On the 16th, the day of the Spurs' back-to-back game, Liu Mang went to ESPN Atlanta to record two programs about the Spurs. On the 17th, Liu Mang went to Minneapolis with the team.

On the 16th, the game between the Spurs and the Bobcats was not broadcast live nationwide. The Spurs are expected to broadcast only 6 games live this season. Some TV stations have begun to broadcast their games, and some TV stations are still waiting and watching, but at least there will be no nationwide live broadcast against the Bobcats.

However, after the Spurs defeated the Bobcats and continued to sit firmly at the top of the league with a record of 10 wins and 1 loss, ESPN also began to join the ranks of broadcasting the Spurs' games...

...

On November 18, the Hawks came to the Target Center to challenge the Timberwolves.

Looking at the Timberwolves' head coach and CEO Kevin McHale, Coach Kruger was angry!

He felt that McHale had definitely taken a bullet for the Timberwolves' owner!

After running tactics for so many days and just defeating the Spurs, Coach Kruger told Liu Mang and Rondo at the beginning of the game that they could play casually today and let Liu Mang shoot more shots.

It's really not easy to slaughter the Timberwolves. The opponent is too weak. At best, the opponent can only last three quarters, and the third quarter may enter garbage time.

But it's easy for Liu Mang to play against such an opponent.

Liu Mang felt the malice of Coach Kruger, and did not refuse, and turned on the wave mode...

So, in this game, Sebastian Telfair, the nephew of former All-Star Stephen Marbury, cried...

He was really beaten to tears!

Telfair signed a 4-year, 10 million fully guaranteed contract with the Timberwolves in the summer. This is the first time he has received a guaranteed contract, and he has become the starting point guard of the Timberwolves. He has played 10 games so far, averaging 10 points and 5.9 assists per game, which is quite outstanding for a non-core point guard.

But he encountered the hooligans released by Coach Kruger with malicious and hostile mentality...

Liu Mang has been holding back for many games. Although he has scored 50+ once this season, how can that be enough? The coach rarely directly asked him to shoot more, so of course he had to respond!

Liu Mang sat on Telfair throughout the game. Not only Telfair, but also Randy Foye, a sophomore, did the same. No matter who Liu Mang was against, as long as the opponent defended closely and did not let him shoot three-pointers, he would sit and play in the middle and close distance.

Liu Mang took 11 shots in each quarter. After three quarters, he made 19 of 33 shots, including 5 of 12 three-pointers and 8 of 9 free throws, scoring 51 points!

Liu Mang was still a little dissatisfied, but the Hawks were already leading by 31 points, 79 to 48...

In addition to Liu Mang as a scoring point, Coach Kruger also arranged a requirement to defend to the death on the defensive end...

Seeing that the Timberwolves only scored 48 points in three quarters, Liu Mang could only sit back on the bench in dismay, watching Jason Terry take Finley, Mason, Scola, and Brad Miller to play.

Feeling the hatred of Coach Kruger who wanted to abuse McHale to the point of unemployment, Liu Mang felt for the first time that his mentor was so terrible!

"The less hair, the smaller the heart!" Liu Mang complained in his heart, and then looked forward to the media and fans' criticism of McHale after the game...

If Iguodala and Josh Smith were obtained, the Timberwolves would not be like this!
