Chapter 163 162. Run Naked!

Chapter 163 162. Run naked!

A simple and easy game, inexplicably turned into a game of chasing points.

After the start of the final quarter, Jason Terry and Raheem on the Eagles began to lead the team to chase points.

Generally speaking, the opponent is also a young team. Although Mobley and Francis entered the NBA as 22-year-old rookies, they are definitely not veterans. After the morale accumulated in the second and third quarters, the first quarter was fully played. Suppressed frustrations are all offset, and morale is high.

Jason Terry and Raheem played very well, and Muhammad's Ratliff at the basket also did a good job of defending, but the Rockets all got up!

Mobley's three-pointer, Eddie Griffin's air cut, Francis' breakthrough score and points, and Kenny Thomas' scramble.

Halfway through the final quarter, instead of narrowing the point difference, the Eagles expanded by another point!

70 to 80!

To lose?

Liu Mang was very anxious watching the point difference that could not be narrowed from the sidelines, but there was nothing he could do.

I really regret it!

The big deal is streaking!

Think of it as performance art!

If it is a game that is clearly going to be lost, or a game that is still lost after hard work, as long as you work hard, you will not regret it. At most, you can blame your own lack of strength. For example, if you lose to the king, it is your lack of strength.

But lost to the Rockets! The opponent is just a team with less than 10 wins! The third from the bottom in the West!

Because I insisted on completing that task, in order to get the number of intermediate lottery draws, I was about to lose!

It is true that Liu Mang attaches great importance to the lottery. After all, as a rookie, many small achievements have been completed, and the big achievements have not yet been achieved. A mid-level superstar value lottery requires at least a dozen games to get the superstar value.

But as a professional basketball player, the game was lost because of this! As a result, the chance of entering the second place in the Eastern Conference has become even slimmer, Liu Mang can't take it anymore!

The big deal is streaking!

Liu Mang walked to Coach Kruger: "Coach, I want to play."

"Have you figured it out?"

"Um."

"Mike, call a timeout, Ace replaces Jackie." Coach Kruger said to assistant Mike Woodson.

Um, so straightforward? This was replaced? People thought a lot of words that they originally wanted to impress the coach!

Just as the Eagles were attacking, the rookie blew the timeout whistle.

Liu Mang asked in surprise, "Coach, don't you even listen to what I'm thinking clearly?"

"Get out! I don't want to know what you're thinking! If you lose today's game, you can decide what to do next!" Coach Kruger finally couldn't help kicking him.

Liu Mang fled quickly, this middle-aged man in his 40s is quite flexible!

Hundreds of fans from Atlanta, as well as some local Chinese fans in Houston, cheered loudly when they saw Liu Mang finally playing. striking.

The score was overtaken before, Liu Mang was pressed on the bench, and he couldn't catch up for a long time. The fans are almost giving up hope for today's game!

"Ace, stop messing around." Jason Terry said seriously.

I'm so upset!

Originally, Francis was completely suppressed today, but since the second quarter, this guy has been on the rise again. Now he has 27 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists.

They were both rookies in 1999, and the best rookies in that class are Jason Terry and Francis.

Elton Brand, Lamar Odom and Sean Marion have good data but poor records. Brand and Odom's Clippers are on the verge of the playoffs, and Marion's Suns record is only better than The Rockets win one more game.

Although Baron Davis reached the second round of the playoffs with the Hornets last season, his statistics and record this year are inferior to Jason Terry.

Not to mention Andre Miller, Szczerbiak, Artest, Maggette, and James Posey, they are completely incomparable with the current Jason Terry.

And Francis is very likely to be an All-Star starter this year. If Jason Terry is here, if the Eagles play second in the Eastern Conference before the coach selection of the All-Star Weekend, one of him and Raheem will definitely be selected for the All-Star. Not good, both are possible, the main reason is that they have a good record, and both have a chance to reach second place in the division.

1999 was the last draft year after the golden generation of 1996 opened the NBA's new golden draft era, including Ginobili, who was also a rookie selected this year.

Francis and Brand shared the best rookie of the year. When the predecessors ruled the league and they hadn't stepped onto the league's first-line stage, naturally the competition in the same class became the main theme of this year's players.

The goal of the inside line is to overwhelm Brand, and the outside line is to compete with Francis!

When the Eagles got such an excellent record this year, Jason Terry's goal must be to challenge Francis!

No one can lose the Rockets! This is Jason Terry's obsession!

"Ah, I know." Liu Mang responded, thinking about how to solve the problem in front of him.

Less than half a quarter, 10 points behind!

The opponent's morale is like a rainbow!

It's no use regretting, I can only go up and fight!

...

After a timeout, the Eagles made a substitution, Liu Mang replaced Jacqui Vaughn, and the Eagles' strongest five came on stage again!

The Rockets' lineup is Francis, Mobley, former Heat All-Star MVP Glenn Rice, Kenny Thomas, and Eddie Griffin.

Francis was even more excited when he saw Liu Mang dribbling the ball over!

Francis didn't know why this rookie beat him like he had taken the wrong medicine, anyway, he was happy to see Liu Mang now! If it weren't for this rookie, today's game would not be overturned!

The other Eagles players and coach Kruger on the sidelines all looked at Liu Mang who was dribbling. What will he do this time? It should be a good fight.

but……

They actually saw Liu Mang transported in front of Francis and made a gesture of grabbing the ball and making a strong shot!

Seeing Liu Mang bend his knees when he reached the opponent's three-point line, lean forward slightly, pat the ball with his hand and then pull it up, that kind of movement of catching the ball and pulling it up, Coach Kruger covered his eyes in pain.

A certain Chinese fan on the sidelines directly sprayed in Mandarin: "I went to Nima to be smart...brave and brave!"

When Francis saw Liu Mang's posture, like everyone else, he thought that Liu Mang was still showing his head, so he jumped up to block it!

but!

Liu Mang raised his hand and quickly slapped the ball that hadn't fully bounced, and the cat waist broke through Francis!

Francis fell for it!

For the first ball, what Liu Mang wanted was to use the inertia of the opponent's previous thinking, and only this time he could use the inertia, because once the opponent hits normally later, the opponent will definitely not fall for it!

Everyone thought that Liu Mang was about to shoot, and the defense of the others was loose. Eddie Griffin and Kenny Thomas on the inside turned around to grab the rebound!

At this moment, Eddie Griffin heard Francis' "NO..." and turned around to see that rookie on the other side had already protruded into his face! Ball in hand about to layup!

Eddie Griffin's physical fitness is really nothing to say, his reaction is fast, and his hand to block the shot is also precise. He jumped up almost as soon as his leg was bent to 170 degrees. The speed of the bullet is amazing!

At this moment, he found that the opponent's movements were like a slow-motion replay of the left hand and the right hand...

This guy took a step and landed again!

Then he got up and hit himself, and made a layup with a low hand!

"Beep..."

The referee's whistle sounded and the goal was valid 2+1!

Seeing that Eddie Griffin kept arguing with the referee, Liu Mang tidied up his crooked jersey. Really, he is a player from a big city team who has never seen the world.

Why do you feel that there are two burning eyes staring at you?

Liu Mang turned his head and saw that it was Francis!

Francis has been tricked again!

Liu Mang smiled at Francis, and the game restarted!

Ask for a monthly pass. Another new book by a great master is on the shelves, probably the top ten in the category will not be guaranteed. There is basically no recommended position after it is put on the shelves, and the classified monthly ticket list is also considered a very good recommended position. Hope to keep. thank you all!
