Chapter 404

Chapter 404

123 to 101.

The Eagles slaughtered the Bucks by 22 points at home.

Although Ray Allen supernaturally set a record of 47 points and scored a career high of 51 points, he still couldn't stop the strength of the Eagles.

At best, Ray Allen and Raheem exploded each other, and the others couldn't stop the Eagles who took off strong!

This is not a bad team like the Cavaliers, Grizzlies, or Heat, but a real playoff team defeated!

Raheem regained his glory, almost got 50+ for the second time in his career, Jason Terry's stable outside output, two rookies performed brilliantly when they debuted in the regular rotation time for the first time, and they are still two A rookie at the end of the first round!

The Eagles’ vision of the draft is eye-catching. Although this is only the first time Boozer and Prince have played in regular time, some opponents don’t understand why they underestimate them, but Boozer’s grasp of the timing of the pick-and-roll, Prince’s Awareness of defense assistance, this ability cannot be shown by the opponent's contempt, this is talent!

Because there is only one game, it is not easy to judge the future with the two rookies, but at least the fans are amazed.

These are not important, the most important thing is that Liu Mang can pass the ball!

There were fans rumors that Liu Mang was mentored by Stockton in the summer, and people thought it was someone who watched Stockton’s polite interview and made it up. These days, American cameras have long been popular. , In 1987, it was already possible to upload photos on the Internet, plus various news and newspapers, the concept of no picture, no truth has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Now I find that it seems to be true!

Most importantly, the Hawks seem to have really bounced back!

It's not just relying on one or two stars to win the victory, but everyone is in good condition. This is not just a burst to win the next game, but a normal performance!

The happiest thing is not the Eagles themselves or the Eagles fans, because now they are only 6 wins and 18 losses, with a winning percentage of 25%. The road to attack has just begun, and the future will be difficult.

The Eagles have almost wasted November and December, the two months with the easiest schedule, and the following January is relatively good, with only 15 games, but February and March, the busiest months in China, The Eagles have 30 games combined, 13 in February and 17 in March!

Like the Rockets, the Hawks have the most difficult schedule in February and March. The reason is obvious. The league spends the most time in order to cater to Chinese fans.

Seeing the Hawks finally seem to be on the mend, David Stern cried in the office!

Originally, it was because of the end of the Chinese double-star project, because Yao Ming's rookie season was not bad, but it was not good. Up to now, he averaged 12 points and 8 rebounds per game, which is quite satisfactory. Goals are huge hits!

The TV broadcasters almost burst into tears. There was a male singer with both virtue and skill who sang well: After waiting for a long time, I finally waited until today...

Although Barkley is targeting the Eagles, he is also very happy to see the rising ratings. Who would have trouble with money? The higher the ratings of the commentary game, the higher the bonus.

Although the Eagles still seem to be struggling to make the playoffs, at least they are getting better! If it gets better, it means the ratings, it's all money!

Domestic fans still start scolding wars when they have something to do, but the commentators of the imperial court can finally start bragging about how good the Eagles are. They were swollen from being beaten in the face at the beginning of the season. : Yang Huahua, every time he commented on the Eagles game, the Eagles were abused.

However, some people are happy and some are sad. The Hornets players who have come to Atlanta one day earlier are about to cry.

Don't mind!

Why is it their turn, the Eagles counterattacked?

At this time, the people who traded with the Spurs and the Eagles have not yet reported to the opposing team for a physical examination, and they will not be able to play in the past two days. The Spurs will not have a game until the 26th, so I don’t know after Glenn Robinson went to the Spurs. How will it play.

Now there has never been a Bucks without Glenn Robinson, and an Eagles without Glenn Robinson. From the current performance of these two teams, people feel that the Spurs have been cheated!

The Hornets are even more sad, why the Spurs want to help the Eagles take over! Even if you accept the order, can you wait a few more days? How could the trade be done before they beat the Hawks? Anyway, let's wait until they sweep the Eagles!

...

...

After the game against the Bucks, the Eagles' evening interviews continued for a long, long time.

However, this interview was quite harmonious. Liu Mang, who had made bold words before, was very low-key this time, and stopped talking nonsense to avoid setting any flags. It's good to play low-key and play high-key.

It was almost one o'clock when Liu Mang got home at night, and found that the light in his apartment was still on!

Opening the door, Dinah, Alexia, and Levia seemed to be celebrating the New Year, and the coffee table in the living room was full of food.

"Uncle..." Dinah rushed over excitedly when she saw Liu Mang came back.

Just as Liu Mang hugged little Lolita, he slapped him on the face.

"Dinah knew that we would definitely win. Uncle is amazing, Uncle Sharif is amazing, Uncle Jason is amazing, that uncle who looks like a monkey is amazing too, our Eagles team is amazing..."

Liu Mang looked at Dinah, who was counting the players with her fingers in her arms, and felt that it was great to win.

The atmosphere at home in the past two months has been very depressing. The main reason is that Liu Mang is not happy about losing. They were very depressed, and Liu Mang felt that Dinah had become thinner.

Finally, I saw that lively little loli again.

Liu Mang made up his mind, he must win! Must win! If there is another guy who will affect the team's performance, kill him directly!

For a while, Alexia and Dinah were reluctant to go to the Phillips Arena to watch games. They kept losing, which was meaningless.

"Okay, Dinah! It's so late without going to bed! There's still class tomorrow!" Liu Mang patted Dinah's head, "By the way, senior, it's so late today, and you haven't come home yet?"

Just as Alexia was about to speak, Dinah spoke first: "Teacher Aida won't be going back tonight, so I'm staying here..."

Just as Liu Mang's eyes lit up, the second part of Dinah's words came out: "Tonight, Teacher Aida will sleep in Dinah's room, Dinah will sleep in Uncle's room, and Uncle will sleep on the sofa!"

Liu Mang almost recited it in one breath, this girl's arrangement is really good! Why doesn't your teacher sleep in the master's room, and the master sleeps on the sofa?

"I saw Ace today and you finally won the game. We went to the supermarket to buy some food and have a party. We wanted to wait for you to come back. I didn't expect you to interview so many after you won the game, so we came back at this time." Alexis Ya explained, "Then the teacher will sleep in Dinah's room tonight, and I will wake Dinah up tomorrow morning."

"Teacher Aida... let Dinah sleep late tomorrow. The teacher asks for leave for Dinah and says that Dinah is sick, okay?" Little Lolita began to act coquettishly again.

This trick worked on Liu Mang, but it didn't seem to work on women. Alexia patted Dinah's head: "You've learned to pretend to be sick! No way! Children can't tell lies!"

"Teacher is stingy! Uncle finally won the game, so can't you let Dinah sleep more!"

Alexia's childlike innocence also rose, and she made a face at Dinah, but she refused.

Looking at the atmosphere at home because the women and children in the family were so happy because they won a game, Liu Mang felt that it was better to be a fan of James and Duncan. He has led the team to the playoffs for more than ten years. The ranks, the worst is the top sixteen of the league, winning at least forty or fifty games a year, let alone, the fans of such a player are really happy.

Liu Mang endured so long in the interview before and did not set a flag. Now that he returns home, he sees his family so happy, Dinah so lively, and Alexia so happy. Although Levia didn’t say much, but Visibly happy.

Hearing Dinah's words, "Uncle finally won the game", Liu Mang couldn't help but said, "Don't worry, Dinah, your uncle, I will win many games in the future, and I will make it to the playoffs every year. You saw how I lost so badly!"

Immediately, Liu Mang understood what it means to pretend to be cool for a while.

"Ding... In response to the great wish sent by the host, the system releases a career mission: The Way of the King."

"Road to the King: The host must enter the playoffs in every season of his NBA career. When the goal is completed in each season, the superstar value will be rewarded after calculation by the system. Failure penalty: 1 win for every distance from the playoffs. Deduct 10,000 star points."

Depend on! Liu Mang was dumbfounded! One night, two hours of interviews, I held back and didn't set a flag. I was slack at this moment, but I still couldn't hold back!

This task...is not difficult to say, and the punishment is not too much, but it is still very hopeless! Liu Mang really wanted to slap his own mouth!

...

...

The next morning, when Liu Mang woke up, it was past nine o'clock, and there was no one at home.

Levia went shopping for Christmas Eve, Dinah and Alexia went to school, today is the last day of class, and tomorrow there will be a 9-day double-egg holiday.

Liu Mang got up and folded the quilt on the sofa, otherwise Dinah would come back at night and say that such a big uncle didn't even fold the quilt.

After washing up, Liu Mang ate some bread and lettuce, and then rode to the arena.

Because it is back to back, there was no training today except for the team meeting at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, but today is the day when two new teammates come to report.

It doesn't matter whether the new teammates are new teammates or not. The important thing is that one of the teammates is the future star Kevin Wesley who will 100% retire his jersey with the Eagles in the future.

Although the Eagles have a long history, apart from winning a championship in the 57-58 season, there are actually very few honors in team history, and there are not many stars who have won individual NBA awards in team history.

Except for Ratliff who has won the best defensive player and the best defensive team, and Raheem who is the best team, before the three Kitty Hawks came out, only 4 players were selected to the best team in the history of the Eagles : Bob Pettit, the ancient superstar who led the team to the only championship in team history, Lou Hudson, the team leader in the 1960s, Dominic Wilkins, the essence of human movies, and the last one is Kevin Wayne. Slee.

Moreover, Kevin Wesley is also the leader in rebounding and fifth in scoring in the history of the Hawks.

Kevin Wesley just signed a 2-year 4.6 million contract with the Spurs. Originally, he planned to finish the two years with the Spurs. After returning to the Hawks for one year and retiring after the longest career record of 21 seasons, Ash just tied the record of the Chiefs.

The management of the Eagles thought so too. It was a helpless situation to send Kevin Wesley to the Heat in exchange for Steve Smith. , it's not easy to put it badly.

But now that the Spurs use Kevin Wesley as a bargaining chip to balance the salary, the Eagles are naturally happy to bring the veteran back.

Not to mention that this veteran was 39 years old last season and was able to efficiently average 6 points and 6 rebounds per game. He is also in excellent physical condition this year, but he is not compatible with the Spurs. He is too thin and cannot be used against the Spurs. The main opponent is O'Neill.

Just say that Kevin Wesley's rich experience in the playoffs is what the Eagles lack the most. An old family is like a treasure.

Liu Mang still likes to ride a bicycle. When he came to the training ground of Phillips Arena, he found that there were already a bunch of reporters. He checked his phone. It was 10:30. This old man arrived really early, probably to participate in tonight's game , Come for the physical examination early.

After the physical examination and the permission of the team doctor, he can represent the team in the competition.

Seeing Liu Mang coming, the reporters immediately surrounded him.

Originally, when Kevin Wesley came back, he would definitely not be able to attract so many reporters. At most, the local media would interview him, and other media would reprint it.

The main thing is to wait for Liu Mang to come.

The title of Liu Mang Arena Mouse has long been known in the NBA, and he will definitely come this morning, and Liu Mang is full of respect for the veterans in every aspect. The future star of the team will return, and it is still possible to be selected into the Hall of Fame based on the length of his career The veterans of the team and the media all speculated that Liu Mang would come, but no, he really did.

Seeing the dense crowd of reporters coming up, Liu Mang was already used to it.

"Ace, Kevin Wesley, the rebounding leader in your team history, is back. Do you have anything to say?" The reporter's question was not bad, very friendly.

Liu Mang replied: "Of course, it's great that Kevin is back. We really need a teammate with such rich experience. He will use his experience to correct the mistakes we may make and let us avoid many mistakes. We urgently need a veteran with such experience, of course, we will work hard to learn from him, I can't wait to partner with him."

Coach Kruger and veteran Kevin Wesley on the side are very satisfied with Liu Mang's statement, especially Coach Kruger, who has seen Liu Mang go through this dark period, and now speaks more skillfully.

"Kevin Wesley's career may break through 20 seasons. This is a great achievement. Ace, have you ever thought about playing for that long?" The reporter's question was still very friendly.

But this time...

"No, I'm not interested. I won't fight when I'm tired." Liu Mang resolutely refused to express his envy. Damn, these guys always want to set the flag for Xiaoye!

Although playing for more than 20 years, it is really enviable...

There may be another chapter, which will be updated tonight if it is finished before 12 o'clock, and it will be updated at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning if it is not finished.
