Chapter 44

McGrady who beat Nimei up!

Liu Mang quickly looked around, there were no reporters, no passers-by, so he hurried out of the way.

"Ace, please, help me, I want to watch the Raptors game, I've never seen it live..." the child cried miserably.

Damn compassion!

Liu Mang stopped, smiled apologetically to the security personnel, walked over to the yellow-haired kid and said, "Just don't keep yelling that I beat McGrady, and I'll give you a ticket... from the stands."

"Ace, you are so handsome, you will definitely become the best rookie of the year, get the MVP... woo woo woo..."

Liu Mang grabbed the damn kid, apologized to the security staff once again, and dragged the kid to the place where the tickets were bought...

...

"Players can't buy stand tickets? They can only buy tickets for the first floor? Well, I want the one behind, how much is it, 207 yuan... okay, that's all."

Liu Mang spent 220 yuan in pain, and the remaining 13 yuan was given to Bo Juju's ticket saleswoman as a tip.

NBA players have to tip wherever they go. This is the habit of athletes in European and American countries. Liu Wei said that this habit is quite feudal and superstitious!

In fact, the Raptors’ home tickets sold out to fans a few days before the game. After all, they are popular with Vince Carter, but usually each team will leave some tickets, one is for the opponent team. Players may buy it for their friends. Another one is that O’Neal played against the Clippers in March last year, because the Clippers did not give him a ticket first, and then did not sell him a ticket. It was O’Neal’s birthday, and he invited himself Friends and relatives watched the game, but because the game was against the Lakers, Sterling, the Clippers’ stingy owner, wanted to make more money. The Lakers are the hottest team at the moment, so they sold out the tickets a long time ago. As a result, O’Neal faced Scored a career-high 61 points against the Clippers, plus 22 rebounds and 11 dunks in a single game...

After that, each team will leave some tickets to avoid that kind of tragic scene.

"Little devil, your ticket, go to the game by yourself, don't run around and get kicked out, I'm leaving... what are you doing!"

Liu Mang handed the ball ticket to this kid who didn't know him and made him spend 220 US dollars of hard-earned money, only to find that the kid was staring at the waitress's chest.

Depend on!

That's how big it is! The hair hasn't even grown yet!

"Thank you, Ace!" The kid was startled by Liu Mang, his face flushed red, but he still took the ticket quickly, for fear of losing it.

Hey... From the front... Liu Mang thinks this kid looks familiar!

"Little ghost, what's your name?" Liu Mang asked.

The little ghost was so embarrassed that others saw his ugly appearance, and replied in a low voice: "Justin Bieber."

"..."

Depend on! Suck...milk...crazy devil!

Have you been so interested in women's mountains since you were so young?

Liu Mang took a small step back, he still had some prejudice against the future world-renowned Mad Demon Brother, but he was still a brat, not to the point where he would turn around and leave when he saw him, after all, he was still a child.

What a small world!

It was only then that Liu Mang remembered that this future madman was also from Ontario, Canada. Later, he also solicited votes for Raptors point guard Kyrie Lowry, making Kyrie Lowry probably the only All-Star in his career. starter.

It's hard to say what will happen in the future, it's best not to get too close now, and the 220 dollars is just burning incense sticks to pray to the Bodhisattva to bless you and not to have anything to do with this kid in the future!

Liu Mang and little Bieber said goodbye, and after saying goodbye forever in their hearts, they resolutely left.

However, Liu Mang didn't see it. After he left, Little Bieber thumped his chest and then extended his thumb towards his back.

"Ace, you are such a good person! When my buddy becomes a big star in the future, I will definitely repay you! Good brother forever!" Little Bieber silently made Liu Mang's vow to cry...

...

...

What is a mountain roar and a tsunami, and what is a popular king.

Seeing Carter's popularity at the Air Canada Center and the cheers of the fans when Carter came out, Liu Mang really felt it.

It's not like I haven't played against superstars or even bigger superstars before. For example, Iverson is more popular than Carter. McGrady is also popular now. Although he is still slightly inferior to Carter, he is also a popular superstar.

But that was at home. No matter how many Iverson fans bought tickets, fans who wanted to see Madison play casually and get super data also bought a lot of tickets, but at least two-thirds The above fans are still the Eagles themselves.

And here is the Raptors' home court, Carter's own home court, there are almost no Eagles fans, and there are very few Chinese or Asians in Canada. Let's take a look at Liu Mang, who has been in the limelight recently. Canada is also the first choice for Asians and Chinese Americans. The immigration country or one of the countries where you study abroad or get a residence card.

Playing away, or playing with a playoff team, Liu Mang finally understood how important home court advantage is in the playoffs.

The away game doesn't give you a good preparation environment at all.

The meeting room in the hotel was inexplicably booked out "a month ago", so before coming to the Air Canada Center, there was a pre-match meeting in Kruger's coach room. The visiting team's locker room at the Air Canada Center actually only had three stools. The locker room door fell off as soon as you touched it, anyway, whatever made you unhappy.

The regular season is a bit better. Anyway, winning or losing one or two games is not particularly important for the top teams in the playoffs. The Eagles said that it is acceptable. Last year in the playoffs, they were tossed by the Raptors fans enough. Most of the night There are also rock singers who hold open-air late-night barbecue parties and sing while eating.

Today's NBA teams don't make as much money as they will in a decade or so, and they can afford to book a hotel.

Liu Mang continued to be on the bench today, and even if the damned coach Kruger asked him to start, he wouldn't do it. The bench thugs mean that the skills that can only be used by substitute players are starting? Don't be tortured to death! With an ability value of 50, he just got rid of the ranks of the weakest players and entered the ranks of contenders for bench players.

Before the game, after watching Carter's warm-up performance where he casually warmed up and dunked, the crowd cheered, and the game began.

The starters sent by the Eagles are still those people, Dean Grove, Jason Terry, Raheem, Muhammad, Ratliff.

With Jason Terry becoming more mature than last season, Raheem entering his peak period at the age of 25, and Ratliff returning from injury, the Eagles' starting strength is stronger than last season, which is also favored by professional media and fans. The key to the Eagles' ability to enter the top four in the Eastern Conference.

And the one who was squeezed out by the Eagles is the Raptors who are now ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference.

In order to get the top three center Hakeem Olajuwon in the summer, the Raptors let go of the iron-blooded insider Charles Oakley and gave Dameng a three-year 16 million pension contract.

Facts have proved that Dream is really here to retire, and it is too far behind Oakley, who averaged double-doubles per game last season and dared to compete with Dikembe Mutombo, O'Neal and others.

On the perimeter, the Raptors were also hit. Last season, the Raptors averaged 9.2 assists per game. Mark Jackson, who almost won the assists, went to the Knicks to get a big contract.

The inside and outside lines are much weaker. The strength of the Raptors this year is no longer that of the Raptors who fought seven games with the overall runner-up Philadelphia 76ers last season.
