Chapter 799. 798. The Three Wizards of the Strongest Form

In the opening game between the Eagles and the Magic, except for the fact that Liu Mang dunked Howard, the rookie No. 1 pick, which became a classic scene, there was nothing else worth mentioning. In response, the game scene was beautiful, but there was nothing to say about the game. However, this became the most surprising part of the media and fans.

Liu Mang and McGrady did not conflict over the ball rights!

There was no conflict in the preseason, because it was just a preseason. The Eagles only had 4 wins and 3 losses in the preseason.

But when it came to the regular season, McGrady reversed his desire to take the top three shots per game in the league for four consecutive seasons in the past four consecutive seasons. He only took 13 shots. Sen - Terry's 23 shots.

This surprised the media and fans, and it became a hotly discussed point.

For this Eagles lineup, even if most of the role players are missing, the main reason is that Stockton retired and Barnes left, but with McGrady, theoretically speaking, McGrady is undoubtedly better than Raheem , It mainly depends on the running-in...or whether you are willing to sacrifice, or who will be the sacrificer.

McGrady will be ranked No. 1 and No. 3 in the player strength list, and the controversy is only about who is stronger between him, Garnett and Duncan, rather than whether he deserves the top three. This is a good illustration. Fans and the media They all felt that if McGrady goes to a strong team, he might be able to perform like the best player in the league. No one doubts that McGrady is better than Liu Mang, even Eagles fans.

Then the question arises, Liu Mang's sacrifice, or McGrady's sacrifice, it seems difficult to make a choice.

Liu Mang is a double MVP. Among the active players, only O'Neal and Duncan have done it. Both of them have been able to lock in the top ten in history. There is no ninth career resume that is more brilliant than their current stage in NBA history. player of.

But McGrady is really strong!

Relatively speaking, Liu Mang, who is good at attacking with the ball but also good at playing without the ball, is considered to be more likely to sacrifice actively.

However, after the game started, there was no discussion or debate at all. Liu Mang started to play blindly. McGrady took the initiative to play off the ball, and actively supported the offense when he had the ball. He defended the rebounds on the defensive end and sent three blocks in a single game. , played a first-class defensive performance, as if dreaming back to five years ago, but his strength is stronger, allowing him to easily get comprehensive data with an efficient performance of 6 of 13 shots.

Seeing that McGrady has such a high shooting percentage but only 16+7+7+3 data, the unanimous argument of the questions asked by the media after the game is to ask whether McGrady chooses to sacrifice actively, but McGrady's answer is like this.

"I don't think it's a sacrifice. Every team has a clear division of labor. Ace is the scoring leader! Isn't it normal for him to shoot? If I can make my teammates better, it's the best for me Thing, it's not a sacrifice, it's just a difference in the division of labor. Ace beat me last year for his sake, didn't he?

If I can use my ability to improve Ace's scoring efficiency, that would be great. This may be why the team needs me. That's what Sharif did last season. He won the rebounding title. Is that still a sacrifice?

I think I can try to become the assist king? It seems a bit difficult, but who would have thought that Ace could win the Most Improved Award and the MVP last season, I think I can do it too. "

During the first game, McGrady thought about a lot of things, most of which were just a few thoughts on his own. For the team's tolerance for Liu Mang, for the Eagles to win and win the championship, he gave himself Found a very reasonable explanation.

This kind of explanation gave McGrady a sense of mission. He had to support the team when Liu Mang was playing blindly!

McGrady has thought about assisting Liu Mang, but even if he is a substitute, he will feel that he is overqualified. He can win the scoring champion himself. The ability to compete for the ranking of the player power list, and it was even stronger at one time, so he has been trying to understand what kind of team the Eagles are and what he should do.

Now, McGrady feels that he knows what he should do. The main reason is that he is not at ease with Liu Mang!

He Guy likes to make troubles too much, and McGrady feels that he has to take on more responsibilities and help Liu Mang deal with the aftermath.

In this way, even if the data declines, McGrady does not feel that he is a sacrifice, but takes on a more important task!

McGrady had a chat with Raheem after the press conference, lamented that it was not easy for Raheem, and said to Raheem: "I played a game with Ace, and I know how difficult it is for you, but I will do better than you, clean up the mess when Ace was playing, I always thought you were sacrificing, but I didn't expect you to take on such a heavy task, Ace is too worried, Right."

Raheem didn't expect that McGrady thought so much. He felt that he was really just sacrificing. He couldn't do as much as McGrady could, and he didn't think that much at all. But McGrady thinks this way, Raheem has such a new helper for Liu Mang, and he feels relieved a lot, and feels a lot less guilty.

Not knowing how to answer McGrady's misunderstanding, Raheem could only bite the bullet and replied: "Tracey, playing with Ace, sometimes my head can't react, but the process and result are very interesting."

With Raheem's approval, McGrady seemed to be ignited, and he felt that his thoughts were correct!

Suddenly, I felt like a babysitter.

When McGrady returned to the locker room, Liu Mang saw that McGrady was full of energy, and his head was full of doubts. This guy went to a press conference, so how could he be beaten like a chicken?

It's an obvious change. Before Liu Mang felt that although McGrady played well, he was lazy. Now McGrady seems to be full of fighting spirit!

On McGrady's side, he simply found the goal of this season's hard work. After this season's hard work, the decision to renew the contract or not to renew the contract also depends on the choice made this time. After the season is over, what is the result? Of course , It is also possible that a decision can be made in the middle of the season.

...

...

"Kwame, take it easy, don't get too excited, just fight casually." Every time Liu Mang meets a general, he feels extremely relaxed. Although the Wizards' strength has skyrocketed this year, the opponent is Arenas!

But every time Kwame-Brown meets the Wizards, he always looks like he's going every day, which makes Liu Mang feel that his stats are in jeopardy! This year, it is necessary to win consecutive scoring titles, and the team still has McGrady, who needs to distribute the ball to McGrady, and Jason Terry is on the bench...

"Ace, let Kwame play if he wants to. You don't know. When I first joined the Magic, every time I saw the Raptors, I would fight like hell." McGrady laughed, "Ace, you can also shoot more shots. , Kwame trying to grab a few offensive rebounds."

"Ah?" Liu Mang felt that Maddie suddenly seemed to be a different person! Confused by the start of the last game?

do not! Liu Mang also pointed at McGrady to help win the championship!

Seeing that McGrady seems to be a lot more free and easy, with Kwame Brown and discussing how to help Kwame Brown pass the ball, Liu Mang's three views exploded.

After easily defeating the Magic at the start, the Eagles will soon have a game against the Wizards. In October, the Eagles will only have two regular-season games, and in November there will be 15 games. The schedule is very easy, mainly because the opponents are not very strong. There are four or five strong opponents in the second half of November, and the opponents in front seem to be designed to add wins to the Eagles.

Defending champions always get special treatment.

Seeing that McGrady went to discuss with Kwame Brown how to feed the cake, as if he wanted to get a few more assists to win the assist king, Liu Mang felt something was wrong at first glance...

During the rest of the day, the Eagles mainly continue to run tactics. Tactics are actually the same as skills. Some people may not have the talent to play tactics, such as Kwame Brown. His offensive awareness is very poor, but this A person with a soft personality will become very stubborn at some point.

Before coming to the Eagles, Kwame Brown would resign himself to his fate and feel that he was a parallel importer. Even if he occasionally played brilliantly, he still felt that he was a parallel importer, and you can see how good he is.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that when Kwame Brown found motivation, he worked hard to complete all the training, even if it was a running position that he was not good at, he practiced it again and again, so that he could remember when to do it, and others did it once. After training and two or three games, one tactic is already used in a good way. He needs three or five training sessions and a dozen games to improve, but he is still working hard to learn.

Therefore, tactics are also something that practice makes perfect. After the Eagles joined a lot of players with no NBA experience, when entering the season, most of the team training is about these things. As for individual abilities, the team has already arranged a training plan. Well, if the rookies practice well, they may be able to stay in the future. If they do not practice well, they can only be traded while their talent is still envied by other teams.

But... Coach Kruger has nothing to say about the "vision" of Liu Mang and the brokerage company behind Liu Mang. The five rookies selected are all hardworking and have their own talents. He is reluctant to trade any of them. We can only cultivate and make choices slowly, because there are too many potentials, and there is no way to keep them all.

...

On October 30, the Eagles ushered in their second opponent in the regular season, the Wizards, who had won two consecutive victories at the beginning.

The Wizards started one by one, first Jamison, then Jared - Jeffries, Haywood, Larry - Hughes, Arenas.

Wizards this year is terrible, empty-handed white wolf generally got the Mavericks' Antawn - Jamison, all of a sudden the shotgun for the cannon, has become one of the most ferocious firepower teams in the East.

In order to get the Warriors' double 12 center Dampier, the Mavericks almost gave the Wizards the star-level power forward Jamison they got from the Warriors for nothing.

The current Wizards team can be called the Imperial Warriors Guards.

The core players Arenas and Jamison are former Warriors players. Arenas won the best sixth man in the Warriors. Jamison averaged 24.9 points and 8.7 rebounds per game in the third year of the Warriors. Nowitzki, who was in the same session, got a 6-year contract of 84 million.

Larry Hughes, the Wizards' outside defensive gate, also made his name in the Warriors.

The Wizards and Three Musketeers were all trained by warriors.

The Mavericks and Wizards, picking the Warriors for wool...

Beat the Bobcats at the beginning, and then kick the Celtics. The Wizards can beat weak teams, and the Celtics, who have re-signed Antoine Walker, can also have an advantage. They have scored more than 20 points per game. The ability can also have 10+ rebounding ability inside, for a team with outside stars, it can completely play a role in qualitative change!

Jamison, who can play both forwards and small forwards, has the posture of a first-line swingman when he comes to the East.

It's just that, when the home team's players come on the field, they don't dare to beat anyone. Arenas, who dared to fight the Pistons and Pacers without Jamison last season, didn't feel much when he saw the first McGrady on the field. Kwame in the middle -Brown, Prince, and Rasheed Wallace were ignored, but when Liu Mang played at the end, Arenas saw Liu Mang's casual expression and standing in two rows The teammates clapped hands, all they could think of was that time when Liu Mang used exactly the same style of play as him, and he was even more powerful than him.

Even the current Arenas doesn't think he can match Liu Mang's performance in that game.

After Liu Mang entered the field, he took a look at the strength of the opponent's starters.

Arenas, with an ability rating of 88, an offense of 93, a defense of 70, a rebound of 74, and a pass of 83, is a first-class star who can play alone no matter where he goes.

Larry Hughes, ability evaluation 88, offense 80, defense 92, rebound 76, pass 79.

Liu Mang thinks that Larry Hughes, who is at his peak, is the strongest Wizards team. This defensive ability can be used as a defense. The defense is too good, too good, and the offense is also in the chaotic period of the Wizards in the past two years. After training, the rebounds and assists are also top-notch.

Antawn Jamison, with an ability rating of 89, is only one step away from the top stars, but one step is a natural barrier.

Jared Jeffries, ability rating 65... make up.

Heywood, with an ability rating of 70, Liu Mang took a look at Kwame Brown. This guy is the opponent Kwame Brown most wants to kill.

The Wizards' starting lineup is really eye-catching. Liu Mang feels that the Wizards team is really strong compared to the starting lineup. Even if there are two laggards, they are too strong!

But the substitute is much worse. There is no one with an ability rating over 65, otherwise Jared Jeffries would not be used as a power forward and Jamison would be used as a small forward.

He despised the opponent strategically, but although Liu Mang had a casual expression on his face, he didn't dare to be careless. The opponent's outside trio was struggling to defend!

This outside trio is so powerful that Liu Mang felt a headache. He began to think hard, how will James break up this team in the future?

While practicing shooting, he thought about it for a while, and Liu Mang remembered that it was the Cavaliers who poached Larry Hughes away with a five-year, 70 million contract that the Wizards could not match. torn apart...

The Wizards were forced to trade Larry Hughes for a poor defensive Caron Butler, and the Three Musketeers were replaced, turning into a pure scoring team.

There is still a big gap between a scoring team and an offensive team. An offensive team has a good overall offense, while a scoring team is like the new version of the Three Musketeers, with three singles players.

"Oh, that despicable James, actually broke up the Wizards team like this. I can't help this trick if I learn it now!"
