Chapter 841 840. Not Everyone Can Get 58

"In life, all roads lead to Rome... What the hell am I singing..." Liu Mang blew the wind of the Appalachian foothills and sang songs that he didn't even know how they were put together. The first three characters are in Cantonese, and the sentence on the right is in Mandarin.

Liu Mang now feels extremely cold at high places, and has a strange feeling in his heart.

By the way, the mountain breeze from the foothills of Appalachia is actually the wind from the large balcony on the second floor of the villa, because Atlanta is in the Appalachian Mountains, a giant hillside with an altitude of less than 400 meters. Such a City.

"Uncle, no one scored 58 points today! The news is saying that no one can compete with uncle for the scoring title this season!"

"I know, is 58 that easy?" Liu Mang responded casually.

"58 is not easy? Uncle, didn't you get 60+ twice last year?" Little Loli asked curiously.

"What do you know, 58 is a unique number..."

…

My eyes returned to the night before yesterday, that is, after the Eagles played the Bulls.

McGrady had 36 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists, which seemed to be a return to the numbers of the Magic.

Liu Mang had 57 points, 10 assists and 5 rebounds. Fans didn’t know what to say about these statistics.

The key is that Liu Mang and Tracy McGrady played like this. The two scored 93 points together and had 15 assists. Of course, most of their assists were exchanged... but they also hit the key goal in three seconds. Leading by 1 point, but was defeated by the opponent 123 to 122...

However, the strange thing is that the Eagles fans didn't feel too sad when they lost. Instead, they thought it was so funny!

When the game ended, the scene of Liu Mang yelling at the camera was made into a GIF. The scene of Liu Mang roaring and the scene of confusion after the game were cut out with countless expressions and movements. , a generation of emoticon king was born.

As campus networks around the world began to become popular, emoticons began to be born. Liu Mang became popular this time, probably becoming the person who appeared most frequently on the Internet in the past two days.

Even people who don't watch basketball or even don't understand sports at all are aware of Liu Mang's existence.

After the Eagles play the Bulls, they have two days of rest. They have a rest on the 7th and the 8th. On the 9th, they will play the last of four consecutive home games against the Jazz.

Liu Mang scored 50 points in three consecutive games. When Liu Mang passed the ball to McGrady and assisted McGrady to score a three-pointer to go ahead, he shouted "Anyone-else?", which made Kobe Bryant who was watching the live broadcast furious. Who knew, Immediately afterwards, the Eagles made a Michigan Five-Tiger-style mistake. This time, the Eagles did not call a timeout, but forgot that the opponent had no timeout. The Eagles were seized by the opponent and made a long pass for a layup. Kobe saw At this scene, he couldn't stop laughing, because his previous anger suddenly turned into wild laughter, and he choked to death. Vanessa almost sent him to the hospital.

Not only Kobe, but almost everyone watching the game did not expect the ending to be like this. Coupled with Liu Mang's arrogant and domineering look when he yelled "Who else?", Liu Mang became the target of people's ridicule this time.

But while ridiculing, people discovered that when Iverson no longer pursued the scoring title and McGrady was "recruited" by Liu Mang, it seemed that no one in the league could compete with Liu Mang for the scoring title!

Seeing Liu Mang's scoring average of 36 points per game, he was 7 points behind Kobe Bryant in second place, and 8 points behind Allen Iverson in third place. It was almost impossible to catch up. After people finished laughing, shocked!

Is China’s “Basketball God” about to be born?

Liu Mang's three consecutive 50+ games shocked both Kobe and Iverson. Except for Jordan, no one in modern basketball has ever achieved three consecutive 50+ games. That is, since the 1970s to the present, Only Liu Mang and Jordan have accomplished such an achievement!

The only person with more consecutive 50+ times than Liu Mang and Jordan is Wilt Chamberlain from the ancient era of basketball history.

Both Kobe and Iverson were dumbfounded. Kobe didn't have that much energy to score points this season. He was exhausted after scoring 50+ points in a game. His weight affected his physical fitness. Moreover, even if he insisted on scoring, he might not be able to score. 58 points!

At this stage, no one can imagine that as long as Kobe loses weight, he will be a monster who can beat a team that can reach the finals to a point where the whole team's score is not as high as his own.

Even Kobe himself probably wouldn’t dare to think about it.

Kobe chose not to play... Of course, the main reason was seeing Liu Mang's confused face at the end of the game. He laughed so hard that he couldn't even get angry at Liu Mang.

Moreover, 3 consecutive games with 50+ points were indeed so amazing that Kobe could only shake his head.

However, Kobe also had another thought: That bastard is okay? I'll take a good rest and my strength will be better, is that okay?

So, Kobe decided to take a good rest and wait until he feels better...

On Iverson's side, the main reason is that he is not young anymore, he is already 29. This age is not old for ordinary players, but it is a big problem for a short guy like him, plus the scoring champion and so on. He is really not interested now. Seeing that Liu Mang dared to play like that just because of his good record. He was still struggling for a playoff spot, so he chose to remain silent.

No more playing, and Iverson no longer plays with Liu Mang. This guy is a bug.

…

The next December 7th, the Lakers and 76ers will have a game. People are looking forward to who of the two can respond, preferably together.

But who knows, both of them have resumed their playing style before competing with Liu Mang, and have no intention of continuing.

The two top scorers stopped fighting, and the fans were fed up. The fans of the Lakers and 76ers felt sorry for their players and did not force them to play. Kobe's performance this season has made the local fans in Los Angeles like him more. Iverson is the darling of Philadelphia, and they don't want the two to fight with Liu Mang, who is just relying on his good record.

The fans of the two cities have a rare unanimous opinion: Ace Liu is too insidious!

Even Philadelphia fans think Liu Mang is not righteous and is just relying on his good record to play.

The two stars stopped playing, and fans of each team urged their stars to fight with Liu Mang. Fans of any team with players averaging 20+ points per game held signs asking their players to fight with Liu Mang for points during the two days of the game.

But to score points, you need strength, physical strength, and the key is to have a strong heart. No one responded. Liu Mang averaged 36 points per game, and he definitely can't grab the scoring title.

You can fight for the highest single-game score, but it's okay if you get a higher single-game score than Liu Mang, but if you don't, it will be a shame.

You can't say that you scored first and then announced it after you got 58 points. Now, anyone who takes a lot of shots will be regarded as trying to compete with Liu Mang for points.

Unconsciously, Liu Mang has also promoted the process of "selflessness" of major stars in the league...

...

On the evening of December 8, when Liu Mang came to the second-floor balcony to get some fresh air, it was the time for the last game of the two-day break. The two teams were the Hornets and Bobcats. Liu Mang didn't even need to look to know that no one in these two teams could score 50+. One was the last in the East, and the other was the last in the West. It's okay to compete for the No. 1 pick, let alone the scoring champion.

Watching Dina go to play computer games, Liu Mang sent four messages, and he would never touch a computer again in his life!

In the past two days, his mailbox was full of emails all day long, all sent to him by those NBA players, each with emoticons and various texts.

Liu Mang was helpless. He thought that he would not use photos of Kobe, Jordan, McGrady, Iverson and others to make emoticons. He did not expect that the emoticon that became popular in the end was his own!

……

……

On December 9, after two days of rest, the Hawks will face the Jazz at home.

Boozer only invited his old teammates to meet at noon, mainly Liu Mang, Stockton, Rasheed Wallace, Kwame Brown, Prince, and McGrady was also called.

Boozer complained a lot. He had a bad schedule and a bad lineup when he went to the Jazz. Sloan was forced to play badly. Boozer played very depressed. He averaged 21 points and 11 rebounds at the beginning, but now he is forced to reduce his playing time to avoid winning too many games. His data dropped from 21+11 in the first seven games to 18+9.

He could also understand the thoughts of Sloan and the Jazz management. Their current lineup, with Boozer, Kirilenko, Harpring and Arroyo, did have a chance to make the playoffs... There was still a chance to be in the top ten in the West, but even if they barely made it to the playoffs, it would be useless. They were swept by the Suns and Spurs in the first round.

Liu Mang understood that this was a problem with Boozer's mentality, and it was not Boozer's fault. Who made Boozer enter the NBA in this time and space and make it to the Eastern Conference Finals? In the original time and space, Boozer was in Cleveland, not as good as in the Jazz.

However, although Boozer complained, Liu Mang felt that Boozer was very satisfied with being the core of the inside line and the team's first offensive choice. It was normal to complain. The Jazz was not a really bad team, but they were forced to be bad for two consecutive years. Even if Boozer could accept it, he would still be dissatisfied.

When he reunited with this group of old teammates, of course he wanted to complain.

Moreover, Boozer is now in a situation where he just finished the first game of a back-to-back game and is about to play the Hawks in a back-to-back game. It is a very sad situation...

...

After lunch, Boozer went back to the hotel to catch up on his sleep. Liu Mang and his teammates went back to the gym to prepare for the game in the evening.

Except for a training session in the morning, the Hawks had a holiday yesterday and the day before yesterday.

The coaching staff has two goals. One is to let the players have a good rest. After playing against the Jazz, they will start a series of away games. A huge six-game away game is coming. Although there are no back-to-back games, they still need to reserve physical strength.

The second is that the coaching staff discussed the problems they found. Some people suggested that they need to trade inside players, some suggested tapping internal potential, and some suggested continuing to strengthen from the tactical aspect...

Liu Mang rested for two days and gained a lot. Although he said he was resting, Liu Mang still trained at home during the day, the kind of training to vent.

These two days, Liu Mang practiced his left hand to vent his anger. His left-hand layup has improved by two points. It can be regarded as a long-term accumulation. His left-hand layup has exceeded 90!

This is already considered a top layup ability. The layup ability of the right hand is 92, and the left hand is 90. Liu Mang's layup with both hands is almost balanced, and he is one step closer to the real left-handed shooting that Liu Mang wants to achieve.

What Liu Mang needs to practice with his left hand now is to break through 80 for the left-hand three-pointer. Liu Mang's left-hand three-point shooting ability has reached 75, and it is a bit difficult to practice to 80. Liu Mang thinks that it is easier to practice to 79. After all, 80 three-point shooting ability is already a first-class three-pointer in this era.

As for the left-hand mid-range shot... it is exactly 70, and mid-range shooting is more difficult to practice than three-point shooting...

Liu Mang's right-hand three-point ability rating has exceeded 90, and the next step is to accumulate to 94, which is another bottleneck. For example, Ray Allen, Liu Mang had observed during the Olympics. When they last played against each other last season, Ray Allen's three-point ability was 94, and it was still 94 during the Olympics. Basically, it can be said that Ray Allen's three-point ability has reached the limit and has touched the ceiling.

Perhaps it is limited by the fact that three-pointers are not so valued now, Ray Allen cannot play like Curry, of course, it may also be that his talent has reached the top.

It may also be due to the times. Even if Liu Mang wants to start the small ball era, no team will follow suit. In this era with super big men, even if Liu Mang wins the championship with small balls, he will only be regarded as an alternative. If he wants to truly start a new era, Liu Mang thinks that he probably has to establish a dynasty.

Of course, this is also the goal that Liu Mang wants to achieve most! Establish an era that belongs to him! So he has to become stronger!

I am young, and I still think the last game is quite interesting. It seems that I am too young. I still have to learn more. I guess that's it tonight. I'm going to read the book of the great god~
