Chapter 306 304. Historic Rookie Performance!
The cavalry company charged up!
Watching Liu Mang hit three-pointers one after another, it seemed that the king returned after being completely irritated by the Knicks' criminals. The fans on the scene completely turned their backs.
Knicks "mascot" Spike - Lee defected.
Spike Lee is the most famous Knicks fan, but in the same way, he is also a standard New York fan. When his team is strong, he dismisses other teams, but when his team is not good, of course he will show for the other team. Cheers to the mighty star!
Alan Houston was still struggling, trying to curb the momentum of the Eagles, and made two forced shots, but Liu Mang couldn't hold back and scored 5 consecutive three-pointers in the third quarter!
5 three-pointers in a single quarter also created a new record in the history of the Eagles!
At the end of the third quarter, Liu Mang hit the fifth three-pointer, and the Hawks successfully overtook the Knicks 73-71!
When the score was overtaken, the morale of the Knicks completely collapsed, and the cohesion brought by the teammates and criminals completely collapsed!
There are 27 seconds left in this quarter, and the Knicks are wasting time. With 3 seconds left in the 24-second shot, his teammates never had a chance. Mark Jackson had to make a strong shot against Jason Terry, who was taller than himself. three points.
Miss!
Jason - Terry immediately under the fast break.
However, at this time, a guy who rushed out from near the free throw line ran faster than Jason Terry and crossed the half court first!
Muhammad grabbed the defensive rebound and immediately threw it forward.
When Liu Mang received the ball with 4 seconds left, he rushed to the Knicks' basket, jumped up and smashed the ball into the basket!
This dunk may not be domineering, no skills are triggered, it is a very ordinary dunk.
But this dunk killed the last hope of the Knicks!
They can't stop this rookie!
...
Taking advantage of the morale brought by Liu Mang's return to the court in the third quarter, the Eagles overtook the score by 4 points after three quarters, 75 to 71, and set the tone for the final quarter.
The Hawks did not give the Knicks another chance in the final quarter. Jason Terry and Liu Mang kept rushing in the third quarter, but Raheem recovered well. In the fourth quarter, Liu Mang and Jason Terry opened up Space, finally can safely go to the inside and go to the inside, scoring 11 points in a row.
Just rely on personal ability! Rahim calmed down and was still full of fighting spirit, relying on his personal ability to crush everyone on the field to forcibly open the point difference to more than 10 points.
The Knicks had no power to fight back at all, and then Liu Mang and Jason Terry continued to rush forward. Jason Terry still didn't feel good, so he took the initiative to counterattack the ball holder and passed a three-pointer to Liu Mang. Passed lobs to Raheem and Chris Crawford, got 5 assists in the final quarter, added 6 assists in the third quarter and 3 assists in the first half, scored 10 points and 14 assists , the number of assists set a new high in personal career assists!
Liu Mang scored 12 points in the final quarter, plus 12 points in the first half, 17 points in the third quarter, and scored 41 points in the audience!
Raheem's performance is still stable, scoring 10 points in the first quarter, 6 points in the second quarter, 5 points in the third quarter, 7 points in the fourth quarter, 28 points and 15 rebounds in the game, and his performance is like a sea god!
In the end, the Eagles reversed the Knicks 109 to 91 and refused to lose streak!
Looking at Liu Mang who came back from the second half without saying a word from the beginning to the end, the scar on his neck was burning red like fire, the fans were completely conquered by this rookie.
Of course, it wasn't as explosive as Jordan's 55 points on 21-of-37 shooting when he came back in 1995.
But this dramatic process, the return of the king like a wave of scoring to take away the game, and the visual effects brought by it are more impressive to the fans than Jordan's situation where it is obvious that I am here to abuse you.
After the game, the headlines given by the major media were exactly the same: "Classic Moments at Madison Square Garden"!
...
...
The Eagles did not allow Liu Mang to participate in the post-match press conference. Although the team doctor said Liu Mang was fine, Coach Kruger looked at Liu Mang's completely bruised neck and expressed his disbelief!
Well, Liu Mang also avoided the idea of competing with the media.
Although the fans turned their backs, the media are still those media. The New York media has always been worried about Liu Mang’s refusal to accept an interview with the New York Times when he scored 50+ before. Although Liu Mang himself has an absolute advantage in public opinion in this conflict, but The media can always come up with some strange arguments, and black can be white.
Then, Liu Mang was sent to the hospital for detailed examination.
When the game is not over, the players want to play with injuries, but the team doctor decides that they can still play. Naturally, the team will not give up. After all, they have given money, and it is still a lot of money.
But after the game, there must be a thorough inspection. Now is not the era when small fractures could not be detected more than ten or twenty years ago. If there is an injury, it should be checked and treated as soon as possible, especially for a rookie like Liu Mang. A promising young star in the future.
Another toss until early morning, when Liu Mang returned to the Trump Hotel from the hospital, it was already past three o'clock in the morning, the preliminary examination result of the hospital was all right, there was no fracture in the X-ray photos, some body fluids from the throat were taken for examination, However, the doctor's judgment was that there was no serious problem, it was just a trauma, which made the Eagles' coaching staff and management heave a sigh of relief.
Can't afford to hurt!
After a lapse of 15 years, he finally reached the top position in the Eastern Conference for the first time. He has already become an inside core, and if he hurts a substitute core, it is really over. The lineup will be the same as when Ratliff was reimbursed last season.
Of course, in the past 14 years, the human movie essence has won 55 wins once, but in the past 14 years, the Eastern Conference has been the era of the Pistons and Bulls...
Liu Mang returned to the hotel after three o'clock. After returning to the room, he didn't even want to take a shower, so he just fell asleep.
Fortunately, after the end of the four-game streak, the Eagles have three days to rest. There is a game at home on the 15th, against the visiting 76ers at home, and then the Heat will play back-to-back on the 17th and 18th...and the Heat.
...
Liu Mang is sleeping peacefully here, the outside world has exploded!
There are many night owls in the United States, and they are still checking the news in the early morning, mainly because Liu Mang's comeback performance this time is so amazing!
Of course, it can't be compared with those famous superstars who scored in the second half when they fell behind, but Liu Mang is still a rookie!
Scored 29 points in the second half!
This kind of performance, since the merger of modern basketball, that is, the NBA and ABA, is the first time it has appeared on a rookie!
If you count that 50+, Liu Mang has 4 times 40+ in his rookie season!
Since Jordan, Iverson has the most 40+ games in his rookie season. There are 5 40+ games in total, including one 50+ game. Liu Mang is only one game away from this record!
What is the honor after Iverson?
So far, Iverson is regarded as the first player of the 96 golden generation and the MVP of the regular season! Multiple scoring champions!
With 18 games left, the Eagles are now 46-18.
In terms of scoring, Liu Mang is unlikely to catch up with Iverson's rookie year average of nearly 24 points per game. Well, it is impossible, unless he averages 40+ per game in the next 18 games...
Let Kobe do this kind of thing.
But if you consider the team's performance and the status of the team's style of play, Liu Mang's rookie season so far has been better than Iverson's rookie season!
Before this draft, the draft year that made other teams desperate except for the top five picks, unexpectedly produced a historical rookie comparable to Iverson!
Jordan, Magician, Bird, and Duncan are definitely the first-class rookies in modern basketball. Entering the team has transformed the team, either directly entering the best team, or directly winning From the championship MVP to the masters, there is no doubt that they are the strongest rookie echelon in modern basketball.
And the second level is Iverson, Olajuwon, O'Neal... Wait, Liu Mang's performance in his rookie year is already comparable to them!
This side of the United States is full of Ace Liu.
Domestic fans also exploded.
Although, without the consent of the Blues Association, there is no way for the mainland to broadcast Eagles games live. The Blues Association has already negotiated with the NBA on the number of live broadcast games this season. It is too troublesome to modify, and we will talk about it next season.
However, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are not under the control of the Blue Association, and after 2002, a brand-new live broadcast method began to appear, which is especially suitable for the live broadcast method of the 2G network that will be released soon-text live broadcast.
NBA games are played at night in the United States, but in China, it is broad daylight!
The two teams clashed, confronted, criminals, Liu Mang was injured and carried out, returned to the field and ran away, the king returned, and the media also reprinted the news from the US emperor. Liu Mang was hailed as a rookie of historical level, and Iverson O'Neal, Olajuwon and other famous superstars were compared, which caused a large-scale sensation in China.
Of course, the domestic forums are almost all quarrels and quarrels, and even more quarrels if you don’t watch the game. There are all kinds of fake remarks, remarks that the opponent is the bottom team and there is nothing to brag about, and then there are Liu Mang’s fans and the other party. Spray, and then large-scale spraying...
In fact, the US forums are the same. There is no way to eliminate cyber violence. As the Internet becomes a part of people's lives instead of a new gadget now, people will look at the remarks of Internet trolls more rationally. But now, domestic and US imperialism The fans are all hyped.
No one wants to be regarded as an idol of a historical player and a rookie side by side!
However, this has further increased Liu Mang's reputation, and he has become the focus of discussion like a popular rookie, like Iverson's rookie year and O'Neal's rookie year, instead of just an astonishing reversal as before. attack players.
Moreover, the image of a counterattack player is still there, and Liu Mang's harvest in this game is far more than the task of 3000 superstar points!
However, it was the Blue Association who was sad. I expected this uncontrolled guy to play worse and worse, but it turned out to be more and more popular!
The Blue Association is not stupid, they also need political performance, and it is also good for their political performance to attract an NBA All-Star player to the national team and perform well.
The Blue Association finally put Liu Mang into the national team's agenda.
