Chapter 838 837. We Support Ace
Everyone wants to see what kind of response Liu Mang will make when he plays the Bulls.
Judging from the current rhythm of you and me, Liu Mang's best time to respond is tonight's game against the Bulls. If it were another game, it wouldn't be that interesting.
The fans are excited, but the Eagles coaching staff is in trouble.
Are you getting used to Liu Mang? Or do you prefer Liu Mang?
As expected, Liu Mang could only be used to him.
Of course, you have to ask Liu Mang what he means. What if Liu Mang sees a ghost and doesn't want to break up with Iverson?
When Stockton came to ask about this on behalf of Coach Kruger, Liu Mang replied: "Don't worry about them. I don't care about the false reputation of leading the season in points scored in a single game."
Stockton didn't expect it to be a ghost!
Stockton thought about Liu Mang, who held the ball and threw it to death last season, and Liu Mang, who took the ball and threw it to death in the last game. Is this still the super big one?
"What's wrong, John?" Liu Mang asked strangely, the young master is no longer a cancer, aren't you happy?
"It's okay. I think I'm a little sleepy. I probably didn't wake up. I'm going to take a rest..." Stockton is a little doubtful about life...
…
In Liu Mang's view, the Bulls are different from other teams. This team is very strong!
Liu Mang clearly remembers that the overall strength of this team was so strong that people called it "one more Kobe can win the championship." The Bulls have always done well in the draft. After five years of poor performance, they have accumulated enough Talent and immediate combat ability are now beginning to be harvested.
Liu Mang has no intention of playing against the Bulls like he did against the Raptors. The Raptors are one of the top six teams in the league, and the Bulls are a slightly better team than the Magic and Celtics. After the Pacers lost 80% of their strength, the Bulls have firmly settled into fifth place in the Eastern Conference. Although their record is not yet far behind the other five teams competing for fifth place, their solid offensive and defensive performance is better than the other five teams. Can't.
The Magic have tactical core Grant Hill, the league's top ten scorer Sharif Rahim, and talented interior defender Dwight Howard, but they don't have enough three-pointers.
The Celtics have two stars shining brightly, but there is nothing else except the two stars. Although Ainge understands this problem and is already saving draft picks to do big things, one or two years may not be enough for him to collect enough potential stocks to trade for stars. , and potential stocks must be cultivated before others are willing to accept them.
The common shortcoming of the 76ers and Wizards is that the chemical reaction does not come as quickly as the Bulls, and it takes time. By the time they get used to each other, the Bulls will already be firmly in fifth place.
The Cavaliers are the worst, only James.
As a result, because of the division system, the Heat now have a high probability of entering the playoffs as fourth in the Eastern Conference.
If the Bulls finish fifth, Wade has not yet reached his peak, and the inside combination of Eddy Curry, Tyson Chandler, and Antonio Davis will face the Heat, who have not yet found a suitable substitute for O'Neal. That said, it's hard for the Heat.
Although the chance is very small, what if the Bulls are upset?
But playing the Bulls like that would be another problem...
Liu Mang's impression of the Bulls in recent years is like his impression of the Grizzlies after 2010. He is best at muddying the muddy waters.
Since there is a possibility of meeting the Bulls in the second round, the first thing to consider is not to set a new league scoring high for a player in a single game this season, but to win!
Any opponents you may encounter in the playoffs must be defeated in the regular season.
This is the biggest playoff strategy Liu Mang has learned in the past few years.
And the most important thing is to suppress Kirk Hinrich...
In addition to the task of being the scoring king, Liu Mang also has to suppress the stars of his generation. The Bulls also have Kirk Hinrich, one of the representative players in the 2003 rookie class. When Wade and James After he stops playing point guard in the future, by coincidence, Hinrich is the best point guard of the 2003 generation.
Just looking at Hinrich's face and Hinrich's mature and steady style of play, Liu Mang couldn't treat him as a second-year player. His strength is indeed not as good as James, Wade, and Anthony, but his maturity is The tallest among the 03 generation perimeter players, he basically entered the NBA at his peak period. He is mainly friendly to his teammates. His mature style of play can cooperate with his teammates.
The best thing about the Bulls is the selection of coaches. They have accumulated enough talent in the team. After the lineup is strengthened, they can always choose a suitable head coach to bring out the team's chemical reaction immediately.
For example, Jordan, the Zen Master in the Pippen era, Sterk Skiles at this stage, and Tom Thibodeau in the future Rose era, no matter what the final result is, it did immediately allow the Bulls to play a wonderful period. time.
The task of suppressing the stars of his generation is mainly the task of suppressing the four-year stars from 2000 to 2003, and the rookies in the past four years who may coincide with Liu Mang's peak period.
As for those from the 2004 to 2005 and 2006 classes, it is very simple. When their peak period comes, it takes too long. To suppress them, it is very simple. If they make it to the playoffs and meet them, just beat them. If you don't encounter them, the mission will be automatically completed, because they are not at their peak and there is no possibility of threatening Liu Mang.
By the time they reached their peak, Liu Mang, who graduated in 2001, was already a veteran for more than seven years.
However, although the stars of the 2004, 2005, and 2006 classes do not need to be suppressed until they are at their peak, when they lead the team into the playoffs as the core, Liu Mang needs to defeat them in the playoffs to complete the suppression at the same time. Necessary conditions for a generational star.
In fact, even if the Eagles meet the Bulls in the playoffs, it will not be difficult. After all, these people are all newcomers, but it will not be that easy. The Bulls can muddy the waters too much.
Moreover, the Bulls are not particularly likely to beat the Heat now. Liu Mang thinks it is possible to win two or three games, but it is still difficult to defeat the Heat in the series.
But basketball is round, and Liu Mang cannot relax at all. What if?
Compared with the task of suppressing the stars of his generation, the task of prologue to the epic scorer showdown is just a side task of the scoring king. Even if the superstar value is deducted until the end of the season, Liu Mang won the consecutive scoring king and the legendary task of scoring king. Even if it's done.
Liu Mang's main mission goal is to obtain two talent skill fragments, that is, to suppress the stars of his generation, and then win the consecutive scoring championship.
As for beating the Bulls, if you don't score at least 57 points, you will be deducted 10,000 superstar points, but if you can beat the Bulls, Liu Mang thinks it is worth it!
As for surpassing Iverson's 56 points, after beating the Bulls, wouldn't the next home game be against the Jazz... Liu Mang is going to fall in love with Boozer and let him watch a scoring show...
…
…
Coach Kruger was not too surprised when Liu Mang said that he would not score points in this game.
It's not surprising what Liu Mang does. His old teammates all think it's normal. Since he wants to play well, Coach Kruger originally planned to use Liu Manglang's death shot and Tracy McGrady to organize the offense and pick up the rhythm. .
This is also a way to speed up and wear down the opponent's big man. The whole team serves Liu Mang and allows Liu Mang to take more shots. It can be regarded as a run-and-gun version of the 76ers' tactics.
It's a bit awkward, but my opponents probably find it even more awkward, because the Hawks are used to too many weird tactics, and the Bulls are almost the most traditional team in the league, so try to fight the weird ones. , the other party may feel more uncomfortable.
The Eagles coaching staff quickly made tactical adjustments and returned to the rhythm before playing the Raptors.
After trying the new version of the cavalry tactics and further improving it, you will see how it goes when you encounter the Bulls, a traditional team like the Magic.
As for Tracy McGrady and Stockton, the former sat in the corner together and looked at each other, speechless, but both understood each other after the assistant coach helped Coach Kruger make the tactical arrangements. a feeling of.
Although Stockton has been with the Eagles for more than a year, he is generally considered normal, which means he still has not fully understood the structure of Liu Mang's head!
…
…
The game between the Eagles and the Bulls is getting an extra broadcast!
This time it is not limited to Chaoting Channel and ESPN.
Hong Kong Sports, ESPN Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and even the four European countries of England, France, Spain, and Germany broadcast this game!
The impact of Liu Mang, Kobe Bryant, and Iverson's soaring scores even exceeded the league's expectations!
Asian countries and regions can understand. Luol Deng and Ben Gordon are both British, and the live broadcast in England is understandable. However, France, Spain, and Germany, the major football countries, also applied to broadcast this game, which was properly broadcast. Unexpected!
These three countries rarely broadcast NBA games. There is only one NBA live broadcast a week, and it is a live broadcast of the teams of their players. European countries are mainly football-based, and basketball is only a niche sport.
This matter is inseparable from the fact that Adam Silva seized every opportunity to vigorously promote it. Then, after Liu Mang had countless anti-fans in North America, China, and Asia, anti-fans in Europe also began to breed...
In the afternoon, during the warm-up, Liu Mang did not accept an interview and concentrated on practicing shooting. When McGrady was interviewed, he was asked whether he would respond to Iverson's 56 points in today's game.
McGrady said: "Of course, we have the best scorer in the world, Ace scores and wins, we can do it."
Coach Kruger also gave a similar answer in an interview: "Our ability to win is inseparable from Ace's high scoring. You all saw that Ace won the scoring title last season, so we Won the championship.”
The Eagles have the same voice and support Liu Mang without any objection to score points with Kobe and Iverson...
