Chapter 51 51. Manic Potion

Chapter 51 51. Manic potion

Obviously, a superstar like Gary Payton, who faced Jordan in the finals, would not pay attention to a rookie like McGrady, a new generation superstar who always pays attention to strange things, and he is still a rookie in the second round. Make fun of Jordan's No. 1 pick more.

Although Payton knew that there was Liu Mang, a young man who was called one of the low-ranking trio in the draft to save the disaster year, but he didn't know that this was Liu Mang's style of play. It was the first time he encountered such a style of play. The referee He also called a three-point shooting foul without hesitation, and his inner anger couldn't find a place to vent!

Seeing Payton chattering with the referee, Liu Mang decisively used the manic potion, the target...

Not myself, and not Peyton!

"Use the manic potion, just the big belly referee!"

"The host uses manic potion, the target is Tony Bruals, the physical fitness of the target is only slightly improved, sanity decreases, and temper tantrums increase."

Brother Tony?

Depend on!

It turns out that the referee with a big belly is Tony-Brothers, a famous caller and fans nicknamed Tony-Brothers! This future ultra-calm celebrity referee is so calm that he has whistled more than 1,300 regular season games, more than 140 playoff games, and more than 20 finals games, but the total number of technical fouls whistled does not exceed 100!

This calm super referee will be selected into the Basketball Hall of Fame in the future!

He has a famous saying in referee circles: "If I can communicate calmly with players or coaches, wouldn't that be better? I don't want to use technical fouls as a weapon."

I go! Liu Mang regretted it a bit. Will the manic potion be effective if it is used on such a calm referee?

Liu Mang still underestimated the power of the system medicine...

Payton has a bad temper, but it's just an illusion. He is the one who can irritate others the most. How could he not be calm? He just wants to keep putting pressure on the referee, and today's referees sometimes have thirty or fifty games or hundreds of games. Brother Tony, who will not call a technical foul or a malicious foul, of course Payton has to chatter to show his sense of existence, let the referee think about it when he calls the penalty next time, or give a whistle that is beneficial to the Supersonics, the Supersonics I can't afford to lose! If the Wild West loses one or two more games, a team like theirs that ranks six to eight in the Western Conference playoffs might fall out of the top eight!

but!

The pregnant referee, who was still chatting with Payton, said that the ball was in compliance with the rules, and suddenly became impatient. Seeing that Payton was still complaining, he blew his whistle and made a T sign.

Gary Payton gets a technical foul!

Grass!

Gary Payton turned around and left, a miscalculation!

After being called a technical foul, Payton stopped talking for a moment, and did not go into a furious argument, showing his original calmness.

But Payton is very puzzled. After playing in the NBA for 11 years, he has always been a superstar. He has encountered almost every referee in the league. He has seen famous whistlers like Tony Bruals many times. He was very puzzled: "Is this Tony's wife going through menopause, or is he too old to be tough? How could he directly call a technical foul today?"

Liu Mang just wanted to make free throws, and he thought that today's manic potion was a waste, but he didn't expect the effect to be so good, three free throws turned into four free throws!

Surprise!

Liu Mang walked to the free throw line and made all four free throws steadily.

Get 4 points in one round and complete the alternative "four points"!

The fans at the scene were overjoyed. For such a long time before, Payton abused the Eagles in the backcourt so much that the fans couldn't bear to look directly at it. Liu Mang made Payton deflated as soon as he came up. Fans, don't get too excited!

This is our talented rookie! Although a little shameless!

Even in Atlanta, there is a "Shameless Fan Club" with fans of the Georgia Tech Jackets as the core. I don't know them, although the establishment of the fan group gave him 500 rogue points and superstar points...

Sometimes, it's cool to make a foul...

It's the Sonics' turn to attack.

Jason Terry said he was too short to guard Payton, and Raheem said he was too tall and slow to keep up.

Watching Jason Terry follow the White Flyers, and Raheem follow the Ribs forward Desmond Mason, Liu Mang stopped scolding and consciously defended the only Supersonic superstar Payton .

Liu Mang has also played five or six games, and he understands that the Eagles are not that kind of top team, and it is unlikely that anyone will take the initiative to defend against the opponent's super perimeter.

Payton pushed forward, and Liu Mang took half a step back to prevent a breakthrough.

To say that Payton's biggest flaw on the offensive end is his three-point shooting.

In fact, there is a very common thing in the NBA, and it will be more common in the future, that is, a good shooter's mid-range and long-range shooting percentage is not as high as the three-point shooting percentage.

In the 1980s and 1990s, however, it was just the opposite.

When Payton first came into contact with basketball, there was no three-point line. It is the same reason that Jordan's three-pointers are bad, and it is also the reason why three-pointers will become more and more accurate in the future.

Payton's career three-point shooting rate is just 30%, and he has made a lot of shots, but he is terribly iron. He averaged 3.1 three-point shots per game in his career, and he averaged 0.8 hits per game.

"Rookie, you pissed me off." Payton decisively chose to break through after saying this.

Facts have proved that it is useless for Liu Mang to take a step back. Liu Mang was standing on the semicircle of the solid line outside the free throw line. He was bumped by Payton and directly hit the free throw line. Then Payton leaned against Liu Mang with his back, Push it up again, turn over!

Seeing Peyton leaning forward and turning over to make a shot, Liu Mang went straight up and stretched out his hand towards Peyton's face!

Depend on! Didn't it just pull you down? You still fell on purpose!

Peyton was taken aback, and dodged in the air, and the ball fell in a hurry!

Liu Mang quickly picked up the ball and counterattacked! Make an emergency stop outside the supersonic three-point line!

Payton, who was almost caught in the eye after landing, was very angry. He didn't have time to complain to the referee, so he turned around and chased Liu Mang.

Liu Mang paused for a moment, originally planning to adjust and shoot, but when he heard heavy footsteps behind him, he paused for a moment and rushed towards Payton, rubbing against him...

Fuck! Nima, this is a malicious foul!

Liu Mang was knocked into the air and flew forward, he could only throw it away...

"The King of Ganba triggers! The host's shots get interference compensation."

"Triggered by the sharpshooter! The host's shooting ability for this shot is +12."

Liu Mang's hand, who was just throwing it afterwards, automatically adjusted the angle, and the ball flew out of Liu Mang's hand. At the same time that Liu Mang fell to the ground like a dog eating shit, the ball plunged into the basket!

The referee's whistle sounded immediately!

The goal was valid and Payton fouled!

Brother Tony, the famous whistler, raised his arms above his head, made a fist with his left hand, and grasped the wrist of his left hand with his right hand.

Physical foul!

Payton was called for a physical foul!

But the ball went in!

The technical desk was a little dumbfounded, and the other two vice referees were also a little dumbfounded. How do you count this ball?

Fans at the scene saw Liu Mang scoring 3+1! The audience burst into cheers!

but!

The fans' screams stopped abruptly, and Liu Mang covered his knees in pain! Knee first landed just now!

Fuck! If Liu Mang's knees were not so painful that he couldn't stand up, he would definitely go up and kill Peyton with an elbow!

"The host's knee is injured, and the system judges it to be a moderate knee sprain. It needs to be treated with 5 primary injury medicines. Do you want to use it?"

use?

etc!

Watching his teammates come up to surround Payton, and the referee blocked the Eagles with a look of panic, Liu Mang thought he could wait!
