Chapter 701 700. Jay Chou Is Really Inaccurate!
Players are always happier when they play games at home. They don’t have to travel long distances, they don’t have to stay idle in the hotel and find things to do while waiting for the game, and most importantly, they don’t have to worry about being beaten when they go out.
For example, Liu, who is very hated now, playing at home is the best.
Get up in the morning, make breakfast before the little Lolita wakes up, and don’t eat it. There is a game today, so I go to the arena after making breakfast. I eat a nutritious meal. After the team’s tactical training and team meeting in the morning, In the afternoon, Liu Mang has been working with his teammates to study the tactics against the Kings, watching the game video of the Kings, and communicating with the teammates who are going to participate in the game today.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Mang went to Dinah's school to take Dinah and Alexia to the arena, and then went to do warm-up training, massage and stretching before the game.
At 6:40, the entrance ceremony of the two teams began.
The Kings are coming, and the threat to the Eagles is not small. The main reason is that the Kings have won a wave of victories recently. Webber has reintegrated into the Kings. It's overturned, and the lineup has not changed much now. Brad Miller, who is very suitable for the Princeton system of the Kings, has also been introduced. The team's goal this year is the championship. Apart from this, the others are sorry for the current lineup, so after Webber's return, the Kings have also become a huge threat in the eyes of Eagles fans.
When the Kings players played, especially Peja, the audience booed.
After the players of the Kings entered the field, looking at behind the bench of the Eagles, Prince and Rasheed Wallace in suits, that is, choosing not to play this game, several stars of the Kings felt a feeling called The feeling of "humiliating".
The Kings stars were annoyed that the Eagles took turns when they played them!
Many fans don't understand the importance of Rasheed Wallace. From the data point of view, Rasheed Wallace averaged 12 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks per game. When Dedan started, he averaged double-doubles in two seasons, which seemed much better, but as an NBA player, he understands the importance of Rasheed Wallace better, especially the Kings with Webber, who is also a top power forward Players, know the importance of Rasheed Wallace's blowing Webber to the Eagles' victory in the last match.
Liu Mang entered the arena second after Ratliff. After entering the arena, seeing Webber's slightly rounded figure was really eye-catching. However, from the recent videos of Webb's games, it seems that he has learned to use his weight The advantage brought by the increase has made the defense worse, but after the offense seems to be integrated into the Kings, there has been no obvious decline.
Liu Mang still admires Webber's golf intelligence.
Feeling the ferocious gaze from Peja, Liu Mang spread out his palms. Under Peja's gaze, the tips of his palms straightened his forehead from the temples, and touched the back of his head along the way. The fans saw Liu Mang's The movement made a "Woo..." sound.
Liu Mang couldn't help but rolled his eyes, are he still his own fans? No face at all.
The smell of gunpowder between the two teams is getting stronger, the hostility and anger of the Kings players, and the fear of the fans on the Kings. The two are combined. The Eagles players did not regard the Kings as their final opponents, but now the smell of gunpowder has become stronger. .
...
Following the roar of Rasheed Wallace recorded and broadcast on the big screen, the cheers of the audience reached a boiling point. After Liu Mang and Boozer beat their chests and embraced, they both stepped onto the court.
Today's Hawks starting lineup is Liu Mang, Korver, Raheem, Boozer, Ratliff.
It seems that the defense of the Hawks lineup has dropped by more than one level. This is why Liu Mang felt that Alexander was in this game. Relatively speaking, Korver is not bad. His single defense is not particularly bad, and his assist defense is unexpected. Well, the main reason is that Boozer's defense is really eye-catching.
Kings starting lineup for Bibby, Christie, Peja, Webber, Brad - Miller.
A few days before this year’s trade deadline, 28 teams in the league were traded. It is known as the craziest trade deadline in history. From the end of the finals to the draft, there is no change in the draft pick, and it is impossible to trade. , so many teams that don’t want to trade draft picks but don’t want to leave the extra stars to the new teams, especially the teams that can’t make the playoffs, even if they lose money, they are not willing to give them to the new teams for nothing, so There were 22 trades in those days, and the only team without any trades was the Kings.
This is why after the Kings added a Brad Miller who can replace Divac, many fans think that the Kings can return to the glory of two years ago. Their lineup has not changed much, and most of the players are at their peak. Especially after Divac was replaced by the peak All-Star Brad Miller.
Ratliff and Brad Miller came to the middle circle to jump the ball. Ratliff's bounce was not so good, but he was much better than Brad Miller, and easily won the jump ball.
The Eagles go first.
After receiving the ball, Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt. The speed of advancement was obviously slower. Compared with the previous three or four seconds to reach the frontcourt, the ball took more than six seconds.
The starting lineup of the Eagles is not suitable for playing fast. Korver, Boozer, and Ratliff are three slow players on the court, so they can only play positions, so Liu Mang tried to slow down the pace after the start.
Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt, and as soon as he reached the three-point line, Christie immediately defended him.
Christie deserves to be the defensive champion of the league's first team defense! It put huge defensive pressure on Liu Mang. Regarding the aggressive defense of this 34-year-old veteran, Liu Mang did not expect that when he played at the home court of the Kings last time, Christie was obviously not so active in defense!
Liu Mang felt Christie's oppression, took a step back and began to change directions to break through. Christie immediately pressed up on Liu Mang and continued to press the defense. Liu Mang was a little strange. He had already made room for him. Is it a mistake?
Following the strength of Christie's pressure, Liu Mang wiped past Christie. As soon as he entered the three-point line, he understood why Christie defended like that. Bibby, who was originally defending Korver, had already flanked Christie. Clamp Liu Mang!
Moreover, Bibby's defensive position and the timing of the pincer attack were very well grasped. Liu Mang almost hit Bibby directly, which might be an offensive foul!
The king's defensive strategy is quite obvious, blocking Liu Mang and leaving Korver out!
Liu Mang almost bumped into Bibby, a spinning top turned around to avoid Bibby, but the ball had already been picked up, and during the turn around, he tried his best to throw the ball, and it was sent to Korver who was in the open position without any mistakes. inside.
This is Korver's first start in his career. He didn't expect him to start. The Eagles have always focused on defense. Except for Boozer, other players with poor defense have not started this season.
Korver was very nervous, and threw it directly after receiving the ball. He was quite excited, and then there was a "clang", iron!
Korver was too nervous, as if someone was chasing and biting him in such a large open space, he shot the iron in a panic.
Brad Miller grabbed a defensive rebound, Adelman on the sidelines smiled, Korver looked like he could attract the defense, his performance in the three-point contest was really amazing, but today the Eagles Putting Korver on the starting lineup, Adelman immediately chose to let go of Korver and give him a chance. As expected, he received a miraculous effect at the beginning! A rookie takes on the task of starting, and he is suddenly promoted from a water dispenser administrator to a starting player. This kind of mentality imbalance has long been expected by the famous coach Adelman.
The Kings attacked, and Brad Miller passed the ball to Bibby. After Bibby advanced to the frontcourt, the moment before Korver defended, he threw a three-pointer directly!
With excellent judgment and confidence in himself, Korver was still in the loss of not scoring a three-pointer. His defensive action was a bit slower, and Bibby yan-sheed a three-pointer!
The key is to get in!
The Kings are picking up speed! This attack took only 8 seconds, and it was thrown almost as soon as it reached the three-point line.
The rhythm choices of the two teams are very different!
Liu Mang went to chase Peja, and Korver went to defend Bibby. He didn't expect to be blown up so badly at the beginning, and then he realized that the last match was not Bibby's poor defense, but Prince's defense was too good!
The impact of Prince's absence was felt immediately.
Seeing that Korver was very disappointed, Liu Mang went to pick up the ball, patted Korver on the shoulder to comfort him, Korver nodded, Liu Mang went to the baseline and sent the ball to Korver, Korver Passing back to Liu Mang, Liu Mang continued to press the rhythm and advance to the frontcourt.
Pressing the illegal slow pace for eight seconds, when Liu Mang advanced to the front court, his teammates had already settled down. Liu Mang suddenly increased his speed, wanting the Kings to be caught off guard, but unexpectedly, Bibby's defensive prediction It was so good, he came up to attack Liu Mang with Christie at the first time, and Liu Mang chose to trust Korver again and passed the ball.
Korver took a deep breath after receiving the ball and made another three-pointer!
It's good to have confidence, but the goal still didn't go in!
Fortunately, the Kings' rebounds are the last in the league this year, with an average of 41 rebounds per game and an average of 44 rebounds per game. The average rebounds per game is the second-lowest in the league, second only to the Supersonics. Boozer is prepared this time At the beginning, he was actively rushing to grab the rebound, and relying on his strength advantage, he cut in and squeezed Webber to put the ball into the basket when Ratliff was also ready to block Brad Miller.
It was not easy to get two points, but looking back, Korver, who was shot three-pointed by Bibby last time, was very active and pressed towards Bibby this time, but he was too aggressive and was passed by Bibby up!
Bibby rushed to the basket, completed the connection with Webber, attracted Boozer to shrink and gave it to Webber, and Webber made a mid-range shot!
5 to 2, the Kings started with an advantage!
The Eagles started off in a very unfavorable situation!
Liu Mang was flanked as soon as halftime passed, and there was no chance to pass to Raheem on the inside. Raheem wanted to play singles, and Liu Mang had to look for opportunities to pass the ball, but Korver couldn't make a shot when he passed to Korver. No way, Liu Mang reached the time of the third attack, and then he came by himself, and made a strong mid-range shot between the two!
The touch seemed to be contagious, and Liu Mang's strong shot missed. The Kings protected the defensive rebound this time and quickly counterattacked. Peja's chasing three-pointer!
The start was beaten 8 to 2, and the Eagles were forced to call a timeout!
