Chapter 670
The rookie game is pretty good, and all kinds of dunks are flying all over the sky. In the past two years, a group of beast-level rookies wantonly displayed their physical fitness.
Melon is not fat yet, all kinds of extraordinary dunks into the basket.
Wade even played two in-situ pull-ups and lobs, showing his physical fitness under the attention of fans all over the world.
Yao Ming and Stoudemire didn't try to block anything. They are both in the second grade. They don't have any deep hatred with the 03 generation. They played casually. Stoudemire dunked happily, and Yao Ming went up and threw a few Three-point entertainment, really scored two, and played an inside pass for Stoudemire, played for about ten minutes and went to rest, leaving Stoudemire and the violent male inside Continue to buckle inside.
In the first grade, Milicic was not suitable for this kind of game. He threw two mid-range shots and went down. Bosh and Haslem came up to play.
Different from the first and second grade games with "deep hatred" in the previous two years, this year's game was too harmonious. Neither team had any defense. From a competitive point of view, it was nothing to watch. After the "Slam Dunk Contest" that showcased physical fitness and slam dunk creativity, it is quite interesting to look at it from another angle.
But the good looks are good. James, who wants to "surpass" Liu Mang with a curve of more than 50 points, unless he grabs the serve to grab the ball, or grabs the offensive rebound by himself, no one will pass the ball to him!
Everyone wants to play on their own. Most of the first-year players have a good relationship, especially James. James has a good relationship with most of the players, but a good relationship is a good relationship, and competition is competition!
The 2003 generation, including Bosh, are not convinced by anyone. Bosh is the main power forward of the second team in the East, and the team's second scorer. Wade, Anthony, and Milicic are the absolute core. James has a good relationship, but no one wants to see anyone surpassing them in the same class, and the first-years have to fight against the group of second-years. I have to come up to defend a wave of baskets, and the first graders really can't play.
Although the freshman has a good relationship with James, if Bosh is playing on a bad team and Milicic is in trouble, only Anthony and Wade may be persuaded by James, but when the top five picks of the 03 generation are all played , After having the title of "03 Five Tigers", no one will accept anyone, and no one will help James win the MVP.
Fighting, in the first half of the second grade, the point difference was widened to 81 to 52, and the lead was almost 30 points. The 2003 class basically had no power to fight back. Indeed, there were Boozer and Stoudemire in the second grade When there are three players inside and inside, the 03 generation can't play inside. Although the inside of the two teams is undefended, it is still a bit troublesome to break through the outside line directly, and the outside line is much more tiring than the inside line. I can only float outside to shoot, and I have no strength after dunking for a long time. The second grade will lose face when dunking. If it is a layup, it will be too embarrassing.
In the end, the sophomore team beat the rookie team 147 to 115. Stoudemire scored 36 points and 5 rebounds, Boozer scored 30 points and 10 rebounds, and Ginobili scored 14 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds. Diandian got the quasi-triple-double data of the triple-double, and the three became candidates for the MVP of the rookie game.
James fought his self-proclaimed 19-year-old life and scored 33 points, but he missed the MVP of the rookie game.
Sure enough, the MVP of the rookie game still depends on the score. Stoudemire won the rookie game MVP by scoring 36 points on 16 of 22 shots.
Generally speaking, the rookie game was quite disappointing. It was fun at first, but when the dunk failed, the sophomore, who had a clear advantage inside, took the game away.
People are starting to miss the two-year rookie game with that rookie who likes to make trouble. Even the rookie game in the first two seasons has exploded!
In 2002, Liu Mang singled out the 2000 generals. Last year, Liu Mang became the head coach and led the 01st to overturn the 2002. Fans had endless topics to discuss after the game.
But now that Liu Mang is no longer a rookie, but a leader of the younger generation in the third grade who may become the youngest MVP in history, what is the discussion point of this year's rookie competition? Is it still necessary to discuss which of them dunks better? After all, the rookie game is an official game, even if it is a dunk contest, it is not as good as the real slam dunk contest. After the game, there is nothing worth discussing. Instead, the issue of the MVP of the rookie game has become the focus of quarrels among fans.
In fact, when the second half of the rookie game started, the players who took a break for a while came up to dunk again, and many fans started shouting "we-want-ice" and the shots kept showing Liu Mang here. Liu Mang could only be embarrassed Showing an official smile, Will Smith next to him teased Liu Mang, saying that Liu Mang set the fans' expectations for the rookie game too high. The rookie game was originally a game for everyone, but Liu Mang made it Like World War.
Liu Mang is also very helpless! I can only reply to Will Smith: Is it a mistake to be too good?
These words made Will-Smith lean forward and backward with laughter, saying that Liu Mang could go to make comedies with him, and let Liu Mang go to him when he was interested in filming movies, and the two also left their contact information.
The "incompetence" of this rookie competition made the next day's triathlon even more attention!
The guy who kept messing up during the All-Star weekend in the past two years is finally coming out!
...
After watching the second half of the rookie game, Liu Mang said goodbye to Will Smith and left the Staples Center. The traffic jam in Los Angeles was serious. Liu Mang left early, but Will Smith couldn’t. He is the MVP of the rookie game. award presenters.
Liu Mang carried Dinah, who had fallen asleep because the game was too boring, and hired bodyguards, and took the rented car back to the holiday villa together. Wagner's luggage had already been delivered to the villa. She said at the gate of the villa that she slept by the gate During the night watch, Liu Mang did not force the bodyguards to live in the room. Although there were several vacant rooms, work was work, and the purpose of hiring bodyguards was not just in case of emergencies. There was such a mighty and majestic bodyguard, mainly for security Who can really prevent such things as guns and backstabbing.
What's more, Liu Mang is just a basketball player, not a real big shot, and that's enough.
After Liu Mang said thank you to Wagner, he hugged Dinah who was sleeping like a piglet, and quietly walked into the big living room. Each room has its own small living room, and no one has been in the big living room for the past two days. Here, Liu Mang originally wanted to sneak into the village, settle Dinah and find an empty room to sleep by himself, but unexpectedly, Levia and Alexia were waiting for them to come back in the living room.
The two girls were lying on the sofa, watching the news on TV. The content of the news happened to be discussing Liu Mang's hope of winning the three-point contest tomorrow. , the major TV stations are also very painful. They can only promote the project of the three-point contest when Liu Mang, the king of trouble, will appear on the stage. Otherwise, the ratings of the first two days will be too bad. .
Seeing Liu Mang coming back with Dinah in his arms, Levia came up to pick up Dinah and sent her back to the room, leaving behind Liu Mang and Alexia.
Liu Mang didn't expect that the two girls didn't fight like that, and they didn't come up to question anything.
Seeing Alexia in her see-through pajamas, holding the ends of her hair in her right hand and circling around, and the obvious marks on her neck... Liu Mang is a bit square, and the crazy scenes from last night are constantly replaying in his head, and he can't help it. Shamelessly leaning forward, he reached out to Alexia with dishonest hands...
Alexia kept dodging, but when Liu Mang took out a necklace, Alexia didn't dodge and took the necklace: "Hmph, Levia has it too...it hurts!" Alexia Xi Ya clamped her legs tightly, and Liu Mang succeeded in the key part. She was ravaged enough last night, Alexia kissed Liu Mang on the mouth, and begged for mercy: "Tomorrow there is a three-point contest..."
"It's okay, I'll still win against that jerk tomorrow..." Although Liu Mang was shameless, he was still worried about the female bodyguard on the other side of the door connected to the living room, who was holding Alexia while Alexia screamed. Shia returned to her own room which was still in a mess...
...
...
I went to bed fairly early last night, going to bed before one o'clock and two o'clock, mainly because the two girls couldn't stand the torment.
I don't know what kind of agreement was reached. When Alexia was tortured by Liu Mang so much that she couldn't even ask for it, Levia came to share the burden. The physical energy potion revived the energy again, and the two girls couldn't bear it, which made the evil consensus reached by Levia and Alexia behind Liu Mang's back that they didn't tell Liu Mang stronger.
When applauding for love, Liu Mang didn't have the heart to ask these questions, so he kept the confusion in his heart.
Liu Mang got up at five o'clock this morning, went to practice shooting for a while, there is an outdoor basketball court in this vacation villa, and then returned to the room at six o'clock to take a shower, and then prepare breakfast.
Starting from today, Liu Mang has resumed the mode of the season. Today is the triathlon, and tomorrow will be a lot of things, public welfare activities, all-star group photos, round table meetings, all-star competition, etc. One day off after the game, the Eagles are about to start a bloody six-game streak, and they are basically strong teams. The first game after the All-Star Weekend is to play against the Lakers, the Eagles' coaching staff and the support department. Ren is coming to Los Angeles today to prepare for the next game.
Liu Mang also began to return to the state in which the season was in progress. After waking up in the morning and taking a dose of physical medicine, he started the same preparations as usual.
The breakfast that Liu Mang made today is relatively large, and I don't know if the bodyguards will eat these things, anyway, I made it first.
At eight o'clock, little loli came to the kitchen first, drooling while watching Liu Mang's cooking, after a while Levia and Alexia woke up, as if nothing had happened in front of Dinah , dressed neatly and even too neatly to cover up the marks made by Liu Mang's suppression or fingers.
Pancakes, toast, fried eggs, milk, vegetable salad, canned beef and various sauces, a lot of food, Levia and Alexia were taken aback.
"Ace, although we are quite tired, we don't have to eat so much!" Levia looked at the pile of food that seemed to be feeding them like pigs, leaving a drop of cold sweat.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you that I hired a bodyguard for Dinah. From now on, she will protect Dinah when going to and from school and going out to play." Liu Mang explained.
"she?"
Levia and Alexia stared at Liu Mang with two sharp eyes. They obviously thought too much, but it's no wonder they thought too much. In the eyes of many people, the profession of female bodyguard is just for that. Well, for example, a certain country in the Middle East was forced to become the head of a poor country by the United States a few years ago, which made the profession of female bodyguard "a big hit".
"That's right, sister Christine hasn't eaten breakfast yet, uncle, where is sister Christine?" Dana remembered that there were still people who hadn't eaten breakfast.
"Christine?" Levia and Alexia's eyes became sharper. Although the conflict between the two has been brewing for a long time, it is now directly on the surface, and a certain consensus has been reached through some communication, but if With the appearance of a third person, this balance will be broken directly, and the first thing to do is to be consistent with the outside world.
"..." Liu Mang was so helpless, he said to Dinah: "She should make a bed at the door, Dinah, you invite her to have breakfast, and get to know Levia and Aida too."
Although Dinah is eccentric, she has a kind heart. When she heard that Wagner would be her bodyguard for the next year, she regarded Wagner as her own, and immediately went to ask Wagner to have breakfast.
Wagner, who was exercising with dumbbells at the door, didn't expect her to have breakfast. She could clearly see that Liu Mang didn't like her, and she knew that her appearance was not the type that employers liked. The old man works as a bodyguard, or he likes those thin male bodyguards who look as ordinary as security guards, or strong but good-looking male bodyguards who look more like the employer's friends. Female bodyguards are usually good-looking. Lord, Wagner's employment rate is very low, and the price is also cheap, only about half of that of other bodyguards. Liu Mang signed it directly for a year. She is so happy. Although it seems that the boss doesn't like her, this job is still hard to come by. Yes, but I didn't expect the boss who didn't like her to make breakfast for her.
Loyalty is gradually cultivated in this way. Liu Mang deliberately made an extra breakfast, and there is no shortage of considerations in this regard.
At the restaurant, after Liu Mang was kicked several times, Wagner's huge body finally entered the restaurant. The expressions of Levia and Alexia, who were already extremely annoyed, froze the moment they saw Wagner... It seems... I hit Liu Mang by mistake...

"King of the NBA All-Star Three-Point Contest: In the 2004 Los Angeles All-Star Three-Point Contest, beat Peja to win the three-point contest. Task reward: Master of Quick Shooting. Failure penalty: Announce to the world, Peja The best three-point shooter, better than me and Ray Allen and Reggie Miller."
"Fast shot master level 1: When catching and shooting, there is a 10% chance to ignore the impact of running, and the shooting speed will be increased by 5% without affecting the feel."
This is a good skill, although it is mainly a pure pitcher skill, the offense with the ball cannot be triggered, and the impact of running is not so important, the important thing is to speed up the shot! When the level is full, the shooting speed will be increased by 30%, which is terrifying!
Liu Mang's shooting speed is not fast. Among active players, Ray Allen has the fastest shooting speed. As far as catching and shooting is concerned, Ray Allen's average speed from catching to shooting last season was 0.5 seconds. And it is a combination of the whole season, the second is Reggie Miller, the third is Hamilton, and the fourth is Reed. The average speed of catch and shoot is between 0.5 seconds and 0.6 seconds.
Compared with these people, Liu Mang's shot speed is very slow, and he can catch and shoot the ball in 0.6 seconds, and he has to pass the ball just to his waist, which is comfortable for the passer. The speed requirements are very high, and the sniper Liu Mang mostly uses it to take a step back to shoot, and the catching and sniping without a step back is inaccurate. Liu Mang's normal speed of catching and shooting is about 0.8 seconds, because his shooting The action is similar to the standard action of Kobe and Jordan, which is to jump up and take the ball to his head before making a shot.
And Ray Allen, Reid, Hamilton, Reggie Miller and others all jumped while picking up the ball and pushing it upwards to shoot. When they jumped to the highest point, they had already pushed the ball out.
Shooting habits are difficult to change, especially Liu Mang's shooting is inherently accurate, and he will not easily change his shooting movements, so he can only train as much as possible to speed up his shooting speed, and he can only practice as fast as possible to make a qualitative change Basically impossible.
Like Jordan, from the beginning to the end of his career, his shooting speed was not very fast, and he did not change his shooting because of this, because it was the most suitable for him.
The same is true for Liu Mang. Although off-ball running and catching and shooting are not top-notch, the Eagles coaching staff did not force him to change his shooting movements, because it is unnecessary. For Liu Mang, playing without the ball is just an auxiliary offensive method. Liu Mang wants to hold the ball.
However, Liu Mang is quite concerned about this point, in case there is a situation where it is necessary to play off the ball, of course the more powerful the better, and, of course, it is best to improve this kind of skill that can be improved.
Therefore, in addition to avoiding embarrassment and not wanting to lose to Peja in the three-point contest, Liu Mang also has extra motivation to win this three-point contest!
...
In the morning, Liu Mang practiced three-pointers on the outdoor basketball court of the villa to prepare for the evening game.
At noon, Liu Mang took two beauties, one big, one small, three beauties, and bodyguards to have lunch together, and then asked Wagner to accompany the three of them to go out to kill chickens. Liu Mang came to the Staples Center in the afternoon, and today he The entries, press conferences and so on are indispensable.
When Schwartz and Liu Mang appeared at the Staples Center, the media were so excited that they were about to cry.
When the staff came to the interview site with Liu Mang in a suit and leather shoes, the reporters who were interviewing other reporters participating in tonight's event resolutely abandoned the others and all gathered around Liu Mang, even if it was the most eye-catching reporter. In the slam dunk contest, there are not many reporters left to interview them. Basically, only the team reporters of their own teams are left. Even Liu Mang’s opponent, Peja, there are not many reporters left. Obviously the protagonist is Liu Mang, everyone thinks that Peja is Liu Mang's stepping stone, which makes Peja's teeth itch with hatred.
When the reporter asked him if he was confident, Liu Mang curled his lips and did not answer, but said: "There are people who want to compete for the second place, and I have no choice but to participate."
finally come! Ace Liu is finally here!
Compared to yesterday's pre-match interviews between the rookies and the sophomores who were generally friendly and harmonious, both the media and the fans prefer Liu Mang, who speaks out when he disagrees!
