Chapter 372
"Congratulations to the host for reaching the division finals, and reward 20,000 superstar points."
"Congratulations to the host for reaching the division finals for the first time, rewarding you with 20,000 superstar points."
"Congratulations to the host for sweeping the opponent, rewarding you with 5000 superstar points..."
"The host caused crazy hostility from Detroit fans, achieved the achievement of Detroit Public Enemy, the host gained 50,000 rogue points, 2,000 superstar points. The public enemy of the alliance has completed 2/28 (2/29)"
"The host has the appreciation of coach Rick Carlisle, the love of the league's coaches completed 3/29 (3/30)."
"..."
"..."
"Congratulations to the host for fulfilling Dinah Shavisiya's expectations, rewarding Pistons players with a random star card above ordinary star."
"Random star card for Pistons players above average star: randomly select a player from the Pistons players with an ability value above 75 in the 2001-2002 season to get a star card."
Liu Mang is on the plane back to Atlanta.
The Eagles are like rats crossing the street in Detroit now. They run away after the game. After sweeping the Pistons that night, after the press conference, they took the plane at 11 pm and went back to Atlanta as if they were in a hurry to play back-to-back tomorrow. Don't want to stay longer.
Enter the Eastern Conference finals, get 20,000 superstar points, 20,000 additional rewards for the first score, and 5,000 sweeps, plus statistics, public enemies of Detroit, etc., the last two games of this round of the series have increased by 5 10,000 superstar value, this is the most exciting thing for Liu Mang, and there is another 110,000 superstar value, and the series against the Nets is not comparable to the Raptors and Pistons. This is even the 2004 championship. In the past few years, the super teams in the Eastern Conference that have only narrowly won in seven games can have enough capital to play!
In addition, with the lingering warmth of the news broadcasts these days, and the heat of his performance of more than 30 points in the third game that swept his opponent, Liu Mang has increased his rogue value by more than 500,000, and his rogue value is already 2.13 million.
All kinds of pumping!
But there is one thing that feels so tasteless, that is, the random star card of the Pistons players... The random star card above the average star of the Pistons really feels so tasteless.
Liu Mang thinks about it, can the Pistons be called stars? Stackhouse? Clifford Robinson? Ben Wallace?
Liu Mang's egg hurts who is useful among these three?
Use it! Liu Mang originally planned to prepare everything he could before the start of the series against the Nets, and prepare for the first finals!
Success and failure are the same thing, do your best!
"Use a random star card from the Pistons."
"The host uses a random star card above the average star of the Pistons players. After screening, the qualified players are Ben Wallace, with an ability value of 85, Stackhouse, with an ability value of 88, Clifford Robinson, with an ability value of 76, Chris Williams, stat value 75."
Before Liu Mang's eyes, there was a picture of four players appearing and disappearing...
In the end, it was fixed on Ben Wallace, whose muscles were twisted together!
"Ding... Congratulations to the host for getting the 2001-2002 version of Ben Wallace's star card, the fit is 35%."
"Ben Wallace 2001-2002 version: ability value 85, offense 55, defense 96, three-pointer 40, mid-range shot 50, layup 80, speed 85, strength 97... Available talent skills: Big Ben Domain 3 class."
The ultimate version of a muscular player with standard physical fitness. His speed is comparable to a slower outside line. It is estimated that only O'Neal can stabilize the pressure in active service. This shooting ability is more muscular than Howard. Except for muscle, there is really nothing. Score The means are estimated to be fixed on the slam dunk under the basket.
Liu Mang complained wildly, and then lamented that it's really not easy for this type of player to stand out, otherwise he wouldn't have lost the draft.
But let alone, the star cards of these four players of the Pistons are the most useful to him, Liu Mang thinks it is the star card of Ben Wallace...
The other two brothers are not as good as Liu Mang himself, Clifford Robinson can't jump up to thirty-five or sixty-five jumps, Chris Williams is completely out of style at first glance, Stackhouse ...Do you think you are not good enough?
Ben Wallace can at least strengthen his defense and strength.
The strength enhancement may be a little lower than O'Neill's big fat man, but it is not far behind the normal O'Neill, anyway, the fit is so high.
There are no more, no less, exactly 110,000 superstar points, Liu Mang thought about it, and set aside 30,000 to prevent injuries and temporary backups, and draw the other 80,000 points!
Never been so proud.
"Boss of the system! 8 mid-level superstar prize draws, plus one mid-level superstar prize reward from previous missions, designated special card!"
"The host uses 9 mid-level superstar points to draw a lottery, with a one-third chance to designate a special card, consuming 80,000 superstar points..."
I have seen many times that the light blue boxes form a wall of superstar value draw boxes, but Liu Mang is far less nervous than he is now.
80,000 points, seeing that there are only 30,000 superstar points left, Liu Mang feels empty in his heart.
"Ding... Congratulations to the host for getting 2 advanced stealing cards; action pack: Goran Dragic's layup pack, special cards: 1 piece of fury, 1 piece of advanced alienation card, 1 piece of random star card, special skill upgrade 1 card; 1 intermediate injury potion; 50 clothing taste and aesthetic cards."
"Advanced Stealing Card: You can choose to steal the target's skills with an 80% rate or a 10% rate to steal the target's skills and keep the target's skill level, (limitation: no chance bonus from any other factors)."
"Fury: Team-type special card, the team is in a state of excitement after use, use with caution."
"Special Skill Upgrade Card: Any level can be increased by 1 level."
"Random star card: Randomly draw a star card."
Random star cards!
When he saw this, Liu Mang felt that everything else was earned!
Dragic's layup? Fortunately, this, Liu Mang is really short of this, but it takes time to get familiar with it temporarily, and layups are not his usual scoring method. His habit of layups has already formed, and he can refer to it.
The special skill upgrade card, this makes Liu Mang so ashamed, why didn't he get this before! As a result, when I drew a skill upgrade card and wanted to upgrade other skills to level 5, it cost an average of 13,000 superstar points for each skill that was upgraded from level 4 to level 5. Now the skills are basically at full level! It's too bad to upgrade from level 3 to level 4!
But you can save it for the next time when you have a level 4 skill and then upgrade to level 5.
The advanced stealing card is either 80% hit rate or 100% hit rate. It is difficult to choose. Anyway, it will be used to train stealing skills with Jordan and Stockton in the future. It doesn’t matter. We will see when the time comes. ,
The intermediate injury potion is a good thing. I already have one, and now I can use one for myself. I can use one for Carter to take down the bouncing fruit, but I will keep it for now. I can't get used to it, and it's not like my natural habit of bouncing slowly rising throughout the season.
I feel good character this time! Everything is good, except for the damned aesthetics of clothes, Nima, besides making Liu Mang look down on the clothes in his closet more and more, it is useless!
But buddies have no money to buy clothes! Wouldn't it be enough to wear something comfortable?
"The one with the taste of clothes is used!"
"The host has used 50 clothing taste aesthetic cards, and the current host's clothing taste value is 62. He is already a qualified clothing taste connoisseur."
"..."
Feeling that he was looking down on his sportswear more and more, Liu Mang was so fucking hurt, so Liu Mang said that this thing is of no use other than making his ass hurt!
But fortunately, the thing about aesthetics does not mean that you will like it when you have a higher vision. How you like to wear, how comfortable it is, has little to do with whether you will go for aesthetics.
So Liu Mang complained about it, but he still felt that he was comfortable wearing it like this, and he loved it!
Good luck today though! Take advantage of the momentum to pursue!
"Boss of the system, use the high-level hooligan value twice to draw! The same draw!" Liu Mang threw all his wealth into this Eastern Conference finals. If he can reach the finals, even if he is swept away, it will be worth it!
Stronger than Nash, he has never made it to the finals in his career, so of course he has to fight hard for the first opportunity before him!
"The host uses two high-level rogue points to draw a lottery, draw the same item, and consume 2,000,000 rogue points."
"Ding... Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Kung Fu Card: 2 Tie Shan Kao, if you use both of them at the same time, you can directly activate the Ties Shan Kao to level 1."
"Tieshanjiao: Bajiquan is a violent impact attack technique, using shoulders, elbows, backs, etc. as carriers to pour the whole body's strength into one point. According to legend, it can smash rocks and mountains when practiced to the highest level...Of course it's just a legend."
"..."
Iron Mountain by...
Nima has another skill.
These are all peaceful times, with a gun in hand, or even moving bricks, no matter how skillful you are, one shot and one brick, it's better to be dead!
Wait, this thing, Liu Mang suddenly had a flash of inspiration, it is very suitable for back hitting!
But 2,000,000 rogue value... Damn, I knew I would use the intermediate level!
But kung fu also has levels?
"Ding... Kung fu level is divided into 5 levels like other skill levels. Level 1 is beginner's essentials, level 2 is small success, level 3 is mastery, level 4 is proficiency, and level 5 is master."
"That's not right, the system, I don't have a level 1 iron elbow skill!"
"That's because the host hasn't even reached the level of initial mastery."
"...Using Tieshan relies on two kung fu cards." Liu Mang didn't want to complain anymore, this system, it's been almost a year, and it still loves to hit people so much.
"Ding... the level of the host Iron Mountain is level 1."
"No more? How do you use this thing?"
"The host can study and practice by himself."
"..."
Forget it, it’s okay overall. You can concentrate your strength better when you’re back hitting. The skill of small skills to accomplish big things is very good. I don’t know when I’ll have a chance to get to level 1. , the key is that you don't know how to practice at all, so is it possible that you have to go back to the country to seek a teacher in the mountains? Those so-called "national martial arts masters" are all funny. They really let them fight with those kung fu masters who participated in the war to resist Japan and save the country.
Taking advantage of the good luck this year, Liu Mang decided to try again!
"Boss of the system, my dear boss, use the random card of Pic Master Level 5 star card!"
Liu Mang said that it would not hurt to call him the boss, and he didn't care about his face.
"The host uses the Porcelain Master level 5 star card random card..."
Many people appeared in front of Liu Mang, looking at Durant, Wade, Kevin Martin... and the image of the supreme man in the world, unexpectedly Wade and Durant are there!
It seems that Wade is really a master of foul making, and he is quite coquettish when he is in his clothes. No matter whether he touches it or not, he rushes in and falls to the ground. It may be that GIF pictures were not popular at that time. The king was ridiculed to go to heaven.
Durant's giant swing seems to be a master of porcelain, but he should still be inferior to the third brother.
"Ding... Congratulations to the host, you got the Corey Maggette peak star card..."
Liu Mang was looking forward to feeling "Wang"'s foul-making demeanor, and then watched the scene in front of him freeze on a short-necked man covered in tendons.
Liu Mang didn't even yell this time, just sat on the chair blankly, as if he heard the sound of heartbreak...
...
...
The collective crushing in the second round made the fans feel bored.
But that feeling dissipated immediately.
The meeting of the four teams with terrifying dominance in the first two rounds of the East and West, not only did not cause a decline in attention due to the hasty end of the second round, but it was raised to perhaps the highest level in the history of the division finals!
Of course, there must be reasons for more and more developed communications and cheaper and cheaper TV products. Just after the second round of the Eastern and Western Conferences, the schedule of the regional finals came out, and the major TV stations confirmed the game time and began to sell live games. Overnight, the purchases of the first four games of the Eastern and Western Finals combined by all major TV stations exceeded 10 million for each game!
By the time the Eastern and Western finals start on May 16, there is nothing wrong with the average ratings exceeding 20 million!
How much was the live broadcast sales of the Western Conference Finals and Finals brought about by the Lakers' invincible dominance last year?
The Western Conference finals averaged 11 million, and the finals averaged 16 million, less than 10% of the ratings, second only to the finals where the Spurs beat the Knicks and set the second-to-last ratings in the past few years.
Jordan's last championship in three consecutive games had the highest audience rating of 22.7% in Game 5, with sales of 36.7 million copies and an average audience rating of over 17%.
So last year's finals were very low, quite low.
Except for the second game of the finals because of Iverson's explosion in the first game, more than 20 million people bought the live broadcast in the second game, and none of the other games exceeded 15 million copies.
This is mainly because there is no suspense!
Even if many fans pay attention, they just read the news after the game: Oh, they really won.
But this time is different. This year's Eastern and Western finals may set a record for the ratings of the division finals in NBA history!
The playoffs are the real stage for superstars. If you play well in the regular season, you may become famous, but it is far from easy to become popular in the playoffs!
Just like Jason Terry, who has always played very well. It was not until the round of the series with the Lakers in 2011 that he really became famous among basketball fans around the world. Even if he doesn’t like him, he knows that such a person in the NBA is amazing .
It was also in the 2011 finals that Nowitzki proved that the MVP in 2007 was not luck, he was really capable, but that year was too unlucky, so unlucky that it seemed that the MVP was obtained by luck .
Liu Mang, Raheem, Jason Terry, and Ratliff have all received a lot of attention in this playoffs. Some fans predict that in the absence of any center forwards in the Eastern Conference, Ratliff may compete with the 2001 All-Stars. Like a star, he will be selected as an All-Star starter again next season.
Both the Kings and the Lakers are famous stars, but it makes people feel that they are just normal performances.
The one who made the most profit was Master Kidd, who used his crazy performance of 19.6 points, 8.9 rebounds and 9.6 assists to lead the Nets to a record of 7 wins and 1 loss in this year's playoffs, proving with his strength that he is the leader of the league. No. 1 point guard! It proved that I can not only play good statistics and records in the regular season, but I will only be stronger in the playoffs!
After the Eagles returned to Atlanta, they felt that the rest period was too long. They took a nap and came to the team meeting the next morning. The main purpose was to sign and put $30,000 into the account of the employee union. When paying taxes or something Then call the player's personal account.
Today is only the 11th, and the regional finals will start on the 16th. There will be a full 5 days of rest.
NBA officials did not expect the second round to end so soon. The second round, which started on May 1, was actually finished in 10 days.
In the past, the rest time was compressed to avoid the end of the season too late. Well, this time it has become an extended rest time, because the scheduled start time of the finals is June, and it ends too early. There are concerns about the draft and so on. degree will be affected.
The warm-up for the new NBA season has actually started since the end of the finals, or even earlier. For example, the draft lottery on the 15th has already begun to warm-up for the next season.
Pick the rookies, the performance of the rookies in the summer league, then the free market, and then the World Championships in the summer. Which European players and Asian players in the World Championships will be spotted by the NBA? Etc., etc. They are all regarded by the NBA as preparations for the warm-up of next season.
The Eagles announced a two-day holiday and started training on May 13.
And the holiday is very thorough. It is best for the players not to touch basketball. It is best to go shopping, take a walk, go fishing, whatever, and relax.
The combination of work and rest is understood not only by Chinese people, but also by foreigners.
