Chapter 664 663. This Guy's Mouth Is Even More Poisonous!
"Kevin Garnett, ability rating 98 (peak), offense 92, defense 100... Exclusive skill: wolf blood boiling."
It's a bit difficult to deal with!
This kind of player with his own system is terrible as long as his teammates are strong. Fortunately, this is the home court, and the most important thing on his side to compete against Garnett is this guy!
Liu Mang looked at Rasheed Wallace who was letting the helpless team staff hold his hair in a mirror by the player's tunnel.
Rasheed Wallace's hair has grown again. Liu Mang has been hovering around a bald hairstyle for a while, so he got a short cut. Rasheed Wallace has grown a lot With hair, the hormones of Europeans and Americans are really strong!
"Hi Ace, long time no see."
Just when Liu Mang was slandering, a voice interrupted his thoughts. He turned around and saw that it was the "big brother" alien of the Timberwolves' three-headed monster, the third of the five giants in the alliance.
"Yo, Sam, long time no see, hey, look at that iron-blooded power forward of yours, he's glaring at me again." Liu Mang completely ignored the fact that he made the NBA's five biggest ugliness, and fought Kassel. Hello.
"Ah...Kevin is that kind of person, he privately..." Cassel originally wanted to say "fair words" to Garnett, but after thinking about it, Garnett privately...seemed to be that kind of person, saying I really can't stand the good words on my conscience, I am a little embarrassed, so I can only smile.
Fortunately, he has met Kassel several times, Liu Mang was not so scared by Kassel's smile this time.
"Ace, I'm also selected as an All-Star!" It's not easy for Cassel. He is almost 35 years old, and he was selected as an All-Star for the first time. He really wants to find someone to share his joy. Apart from his family, his friends in the NBA are not counted. Many, not very good personality, very low self-esteem, mainly because there are not many NBA players like Liu Mang who don't look at him strangely, so he can't get along with many people.
But Kassel's wife is surprisingly beautiful, and Kassel was together before entering the NBA in college.
"I've heard about it. Congratulations Sam." Liu Mang originally wanted to recruit Cassel, but his salary was too high, and this guy still had the ability to start in the NBA until he retired at the age of 39. In the 2007-08 season Before the transfer to the Celtics in the mid-term, there was still an average of 13+3+5 per game. They couldn't dig it out. They still don't lack championships. They won the championship in their rookie season. They only wanted a big contract, so they were rejected. The Timberwolves signed with a big contract.
Seeing Kassel come to say hello and leave happily, Liu Mang scratched his head, wondering why there are so many weirdos in the NBA.
However, when Kassel came, Liu Mang's nervousness dissipated a lot. Seeing such a face, his head was full of aliens.
Except for Cassel who came to say hello, the two teams had no other communication. The relationship between the two teams was not good. Liu Mang and Garnett had a lot of exchanges in the past two years, and Liu Mang and the madman had a big relationship. Contradictions, the relationship between the two teams is even worse, Cassel has always felt that he is the boss, so he can ignore Garnett's eye threats, while others, such as Mark Madsen, who has a good relationship with Liu Mang, are honest He is actually warming up. He is just the "championship experience" that the Timberwolves want. Under Garnett's high-pressure rule, he dare not risk his career.
...
The preparation time before the game is over, the referee let the two teams start to play, and the game is about to start.
The starting lineup for the Eagles is still Liu Mang, Prince, Raheem, Rasheed Wallace, and Ratliff.
The starting lineup sent by the Timberwolves is Cassell, Treyton Hassel, Sprewell, Garnett, Olowokandi.
Except for Garnett and Szczerbiak who was reimbursed, the Timberwolves' lineup has been upgraded in all aspects compared to last season. Olowokandi, who averaged 12 points, 9 rebounds and 2.2 blocks, got a 3-year contract of 16 million yuan, and his data was halved in all aspects!
The decline in scoring is understandable. The Timberwolves lineup is very luxurious this year, and the decline in rebounds is also understandable. Garnett averaged 14 rebounds per game, but his blocks fell by half, and his shooting percentage was just 40%. Olowokandi is perfect The interpretation of what is called a contract year to cheat a big contract.
The rest of the two teams returned to the bench. On the Timberwolves side, after Garnett led the players on the field, it gave the Eagles a very uncomfortable feeling. Driven by Garnett, a group of Timberwolves seemed to be a group of hungry people. Wolves stared at their respective opponents.
But I'm used to this feeling. It's the same every time I play against the Timberwolves. What kind of boss has what kind of team culture. The starters of the Eagles started their opening moves.
After Liu Mang and Boozer embraced, they played.
Rasheed Wallace tidied up his hair tie and walked to the sidelines. The live screen went dark as usual.
The scene became quiet, very quiet, so quiet that the players on the Timberwolves side felt weird!
After the scene darkened, Garnett stared closely at the big screen. When Rasheed Wallace roared and the audience began to cheer wildly, Garnett felt that he should also have such an opening method!
However, it has been preempted by others!
But Garnett really wants to save face. Although he can fight and retreat, he doesn't bother to imitate others. He feels a kind of unwillingness in his heart!
"Ding... The roar of the Celestial Lord is triggered, from Rasheed Wallace, and the Devil's home court of the Eagles starts."
"Ding... Kevin Garnett's wolf howl feature is invalid for the Eagles."
This is it!
In the past, the insiders of my team were repeatedly bombarded by Garnett's ghostly screams, but this time I have another man who is blindly shouting, shouting and shouting, fighting poison with poison!
After Rasheed Wallace yelled, he came to the center of the court and faced Garnett. Rasheed Wallace had a sense of mission in his heart-hard steel Garnett!
Garnett came to the center of the court with the expression as if someone owed him millions, and stood eye to eye with Rasheed Wallace, his expression still fierce.
Rasheed Wallace and Garnett ready to jump ball!
Both Garnett and Rasheed Wallace, who were once members of the super power forward group in the Western Conference, knew each other's strengths, and both wanted to take the lead from the beginning!
Liu Mang returned to his home free throw line and waited for the jump ball. Rasheed Wallace and Kevin Garnett, both of them are men with superb physical fitness, and they are players with few opponents in the jump ball.
The referee blew the whistle and threw the ball into the air. Rasheed Wallace and Garnett both stared at the ball. When the ball reached the highest point, the two jumped up at the same time with the fastest bounce speed!
Garnett hit the ball first, dialed the ball back, and the Timberwolves attacked first.
Cassell advanced to the frontcourt, and Prince immediately put up defense. Cassell is a very weird player, as strange as his appearance. He is 34 years old, and he has all points, assists, shooting percentages, and three-point shooting percentages. Refresh career high! From three-pointers to mid-range shots to post-ups to the basket, he has shown top-level performance this season.
Raheem is entangled with the madman, constantly giving physical contact, and defending harder than usual. The Timberwolves player the Eagles hate the most is Sprewell.
Rasheed Wallace followed closely behind Garnett.
As for Liu Mang, if there was Szczerbiak, the Timberwolves' four outsiders would be on the field, and Liu Mang should guard against madmen, but since Szczerbiak was reimbursed for the season, Liu Mang would guard against Treyton Hassel. False starter, make up defense if necessary.
The three defensive champions of the Eagles tried to stare down the three-headed monster of the Timberwolves from the beginning.
But the Timberwolves opened up the space! Including Garnett, they opened up space, and Olowokandi at the basket leaned against Ratliff for the ball! And Cassel really passed it in!
"Ding... Sugar Man's three-axes trigger, from Michael Olowokandi!"
Liu Mang was wondering what the Timberwolves were going to do, and let a sugar man with an ability rating of only 65 play singles. He only reacted when he heard the prompt. They forgot about Olowokandi!
The reason why Olowokandi is called Sugar Man is that besides the water, there is another characteristic that he is often injured. He only played more than 30 games last season. When the Eagles played against the Clippers last season, Olowokandi happened to be injured. During the injury period, forget about his amazing performance in the first few rounds when he met Olowokandi in the 01-02 season!
Liu Mang rushed inside immediately, double-teaming with Ratliff!
But Olowokandi received the ball and took a step towards the front of the basket. He blocked Ratliff with his left hand sideways.
"swish"
Olowokandi hit a skyhook!
With quick footwork and precise anticipation of the defense, neither Liu Mang nor Ratliff could defend against the pincer attack!
After Olowokandi scored a goal, he didn't know who he learned from. He yelled and returned to the defense, which attracted crazy boos from the scene, but he didn't care. He was booed at home, let alone away. As long as he can have a good time, he can have a good time. His current self-awareness is: I am O'Neill.
Olowokandi's arrogant appearance made the Eagles very upset, but Liu Mang calmed down. This guy almost started every game so coquettishly. It is also because he averaged 6 points and 5 rebounds per game this year that he can still secure the starting position of the Timberwolves. key.
Liu Mang received the serve and advanced to the frontcourt, Sprewell defended, and the enemy was extremely jealous when they met.
Liu Mang didn't hesitate. Seeing his teammates quickly settle down, Liu Mang rushed directly to the right of Sprewell!
Sprewell also immediately pressed towards Liu Mang, but Liu Mang raised his left arm and pushed towards Sprewell's chest!
Sprewell didn't expect Liu Mang to be tough! What's more, Liu Mang's arm is so strong, and his chest hurts, he is forced out of space by Liu Mang, rushing into the three-point line!
As soon as Liu Mang entered the three-point line, Garnett appeared in front of Liu Mang. Sprewell's defensive awareness was very good. In this game, Liu Mang got angry and rushed towards the right corner where Rasheed Wallace was, blocking Liu Mang's passing route. The Timberwolves' defensive rotation is very strong!
Liu Mang did not stop. When he was about to come into contact with Garnett, he kicked his right foot and changed direction to the left. The moment Garnett moved to the right, Liu Mang immediately turned to the right Changing direction, Garnett's defensive footsteps are too strong, he actually changed direction like a guard, and continued to press on Liu Mang!
Liu Mang suddenly grabbed the ball and took a step further to the right. When he stepped out, he grabbed the ball with one hand and took it to his right shoulder, as if he was going to jump and shoot! Garnett rushed forward.
Right now, Liu Mang slammed his right foot on the ground, passed Garnett, stepped on the right edge of the three-second zone with his left foot, and flew to the basket!
The fans at the scene saw Liu Mang showing weird steps again, shaking Garnett into the air, and seeing Liu Mang flying to the basket, they had already started cheering.
Liu Mang was also very excited in his heart, even passing two layups...
"Snapped"
The ball thrown by Liu Mang for a layup was covered by a big hand and fanned out of bounds!
Olowokandi's supplementary defense block!
Liu Mang was a little confused, he didn't expect the ball to be capped!
Just when Liu Mang was in a daze, Garnett's mocking voice came: "Haha, clown, you can't make the shot! Useless clown, we will prevent you to death!"
Liu Mang woke up immediately, this Olowokandi was so easy to be ignored! Liu Mang was afraid of this guy at first, but after passing Sprewell and Garnett in a row, he was so excited that he forgot about this guy!
Garnett's verbal attack is very painful for many young players, but when it comes to Liu Mang, it has become a "good medicine" for Liu Mang to wake up from his bewildered state.
Liu Mang immediately sprayed back at Garnett: "What's none of your business? Is your supplementary defense useful? Jump around like an idiot, look at Michael, he's called defense, don't you?" bedbugs."
Garnett was blocked enough, and walked towards Liu Mang with a fierce expression: "Smelly bastard, what are you talking about!"
Liu Mang raised his head and responded without fear: "Did your head come out last when your mother gave birth to you? Your mouth is so stinky!"
What kind of words are said to what kind of people, if others use artistic dialogue, he will play with art, and when others scold obscene, he will use more vicious words.
Garnett's expression became more fierce, and he crossed his arms and walked towards Liu Mang, and the players from the two teams immediately crowded together.
Thanks to the fact that the Eagles are always prepared to prevent the Eagles from fighting at home, the referee also rushed forward to separate the two teams because of the hatred between many players of the Eagles and Timberwolves.
The referee's head is big, the game has just begun!
Garnett spat aggressively and walked away immediately, wondering why the tried-and-tested trash talk was useless to this kid? This kid is even more of a bastard than that bastard in Los Angeles!
The fans at the scene saw that Liu Mang was not afraid of Garnett, and saw Garnett walking away resentfully, they even stood up and clapped their hands!
Seeing that the two sides calmed down, in fact, the Eagles and the Timberwolves, except for Garnett's posture of fighting, the others, including Sprewell, did not expect to have a conflict so early, so they calmed down after pulling away, the referee warned After checking Liu Mang and Garnett, he indicated that the game will continue and the Eagles have the ball.
With three seconds left, Liu Mang had no choice but to dribble to the right after receiving the serve. He couldn't get rid of Sprewell, so he had to make a forced shot!
"kuang"
Liu Mang missed a strong three-point shot. Garnett competed with Raheem for rebounds inside. Garnett deserves to be the strongest in the league in terms of rebounds. He beat Raheem to grab defensive rebounds, but Raheem's Soon, poke the ball out of bounds.
The Timberwolves backcourt.
Seeing Raheem poking the ball out of bounds, Liu Mang slowed down and walked towards the backcourt. The game had just started, and Liu Mang felt the strength of the opponent's defense! It is indeed a strong team that can stand out in the West in the regular season and rank first in the West! The Timberwolves' defense is really ring after ring, and the defensive rotation is great! Although Olowokandi has the usual factors of running away at the start, but Olowokandi is already so tall and big, and the defensive threat at the basket is not small, which may make him the team's first pick like a normal No. 1 pick. The pillar is completely overthinking, but it is still possible to make him a big pillar under the basket and play the role of Perkins. In the draft, he was the second Olajuwon in the legend!
When Liu Mang returned to defense, Garnett quickly ran up and continued to spray: "Just say you can't make shots, clown, you will never make shots! We will guard you to death!"
Liu Mang became impatient: "Shut up, you haven't played in the second round of the playoffs, what right do you have to talk to me!"
