From today on is the king

Chapter 1140 1139. Two Great Basic Skills Full of Expectations (seeking tickets)
The All-Star Weekend was beaten 13 to 2!

In just 3 minutes, the Eastern team scored 13 points!
Popovich called a timeout!

He thought about this lineup, facing a group of physical men on the other side, it would not play very well.

But I didn't expect to be beaten so badly by the opponent!

Was hit 3 counterattacks in 5 minutes!
If Liu Mang throws a three-pointer wildly and scores 3 in 4 minutes, even if there is a 3+1 and 3 points in 13 minutes, Popovich can accept it, after all, he has experienced worse situations.

But Liu Mang only scored three points this time, and it wasn't a three-point shot. Parker fouled him for a catch and dunk in a counterattack. The score was 2+1. James scored 6 points, Wade scored 4 points, and the three combined to score 13 points!
The four All-Stars with the top five picks in the 03 generation, plus Liu Mang, the tacit understanding makes Popovich feel incredible!

It was only last season that Parker, Ginobili, and Duncan had an excellent tacit understanding. If Parker, Ginobili and Duncan could cooperate better with Duncan in the 02-03 season finals, playing the Nets would not delay Kidd.

The point difference suddenly widened from 4 points to 15 points, Popovich felt a big head!

37 to 52, a bit unacceptable.

But Popovich's thoughts at this time were: "It's not that I want you to fight more, it's that the opponent doesn't give you a chance to rest!"

"Kobe, Steve, Ray, Dirk, Tim, you go, this way..." Popovich first replaced the four strongest players from the Suns, Lakers, Sonics, and Mavericks. Yao Ming was not used for the time being. It is very important to use up the drug combination, but if you want to win, Yao Ming, the inside killer, must be used well.

The Eastern team did not make much personnel adjustments. Wade played for more than eight minutes in a row and was replaced. After a three-minute break, McGrady re-entered the game and led by 3 points. Liu Mang felt that O'Neal could be consumed more. When he met Coach Kruger's eyes, Liu Mang understood what Coach Kruger meant.

……

The Eastern team sent a lineup of Liu Mang, McGrady, James, Bosh, and O'Neal.

The West team sent a lineup of Nash, Ray Allen, Kobe Bryant, Nowitzki, and Duncan.

The fans at the scene saw that the Western Conference team sent out a "strength" lineup again, and continued to cheer up.

The Eastern team played too violently just now, and the Western team had no strength to fight back at all. This made people look down on the few All-Stars of the Western team just now, including Nowitzki who continues to play now.

Liu Mang brought four third graders, and they couldn't beat them all!
Popovich looked at the current lineup where he sent out all 12 All-Stars and could adjust the lineup at will according to his own ideas and then replace it himself. It feels a little strange!

The feeling of coaching this kind of lineup is great. After Popovich arranges the tactics, he doesn't worry about whether the players can display them. There is no need to think about this at all!

Pause back and the West attack.

Liu Mang followed Ray Allen to run around, and what Ray Allen had to do was to catch the ball and throw it whenever he had the opportunity.

Instead of going to the basket, Duncan pulled to a 45-degree angle to the left and pulled O'Neal out. Instead, Kobe carried James to the low position on the right side of the three-second zone.

Nash pushed the ball up the court, lobbed it to Kobe in the low post, and then pulled it to a 45-degree angle to the right, waiting for a shot.

Liu Wei didn't expect this style of play, mainly because he didn't expect Popovich to replace Yao Ming with Duncan!
Yao Ming must be Yao Ming going to the low post. If Duncan faces O'Neal, the low post threat is not as great as Kobe facing McGrady and James!
The Eastern team did not double-team. Watching Kobe hit James with a low back, he squeezed twice, and it really squeezed!
James tried his best to fight back, his center of gravity was lowered, and Kobe found a gap!
Kobe slapped the ball back from his crotch, pierced both hips, turned around and wiped James, caught his crotch-piercing ball, and jumped on the spot. When James turned around and found Kobe, Kobe put his hands on the basket and scored two points.

It's a bit miserable...

The little emperor was tricked by Fengfeng...

Kobe easily scored two points with a low post.

Seeing James being dizzy, Liu Mang mourned for the little emperor for half a second. If he wants to wear the crown, he must bear the burden...

"LeBron, serve!" Liu Mang immediately demanded the ball from James, who was still a little confused.

James feels that Ke Maiai is a bit out of place!Fortunately, being used to being bullied by this new generation of "Ai", James quickly adjusted, picked up the ball and sent it to Liu Mang.

Liu Mang watched James adjust his mentality so quickly, and felt that he usually bullied James for the good of this young man.

Looking at this psychological endurance, no one will say that he is soft in the future.

Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt, facing an unexpected defense, it was Ray Allen!

Nash went to defend James. Kobe did not continue to defend whoever had the ball. Popovich specially arranged tactics for the defensive end, and temporarily built a defensive system with Duncan as the core of the defense.

We all know that the Eastern team wants to create opportunities for McGrady, so let Kobe, the best defender, pinch McGrady.

Facing Ray Allen's defense, Liu Mang had a very good singles opportunity, whether it was a breakthrough or a shot, but Liu Mang didn't play singles, and he didn't immediately pass to McGrady. McGrady's singles against Kobe were not as easy as Kobe's singles against McGrady. On the contrary, it was even more difficult. The defensive gap between the two was obvious.

But... you can find a pick and roll!

Liu Mang glanced at Maddy, and then ran towards Maddy's direction. Maddy understood Liu Mang's eyes and ran to the left to help Liu Mang block Ray Allen.

"Ding... the pick-and-roll master is triggered at level 5, and the host's speed will increase by 8 within two seconds."

Kobe and Ray Allen switched defenses quickly, but Liu Mang was faster. Kobe had already switched defenses in advance, but he still couldn't block Liu Mang and was left behind by Liu Mang in two steps.

Kobe could only catch up from behind. Liu Mang reached the basket. Three players from the Western Conference had already moved in. Nash emptied James to block Liu Mang. Duncan tried his best to carry O'Neal under the basket.

Liu Mang passed the ball to O'Neal, who was the absolute threat. Sure enough, O'Neal immediately attracted Kobe, Nash, and Duncan to double-team him.

Everything is according to plan!James ran towards the top arc when Nash shrank. When O'Neal received the ball, McGrady used James' pick-and-roll and ran to a 45-degree angle on the right. Liu Mang went to stop Nowitzki with Bosh, and McGrady was empty!

As long as O'Neal passes out, McGrady is an open three-pointer!

but!

O'Neill did not pass!
O'Neal couldn't turn around after receiving the ball. Duncan and Nash were almost hanging on him, but O'Neal didn't make a pass, and shot a hook sideways to the basket... With Duncan's resistance and Nash's hook, O'Neal couldn't jump.
What does this mean?
Did O'Neill see that McGrady was empty?
Liu Mang didn't believe this.

But that was O'Neal. The Eastern team didn't say anything, and they still led by 13 points. There is no problem with a goal error.

The West team attacked, and Duncan received the ball from the referee and sent it to Nash. The West team's tactics were still Kobe Bryant's low position to single James.

This time O'Neal shrunk very actively. When Kobe turned around, he shrunk to the basket. Kobe quickly passed the ball to Duncan who was in the high post. Duncan received the ball and wanted to shoot.

Facing Liu Mang's attack, Nowiste made a three-pointer from the corner...

Hollow hit!

It can't be hit at all!
With Nowitzki's height and backward lean, unless the hand feels bad, there is no solution!
15 points difference, 1 minute time, immediately changed to 10 points.

Liu Mang didn't call a timeout. O'Neal's shrinking defense was very active just now, but Kobe and Duncan were both good passers. The ball was sent to Nowitzki, the most stable outside shooting point in the Western Conference team at the first time, and the opponent scored one.

With such an active O'Neal, Liu Mang lowered his worries a bit and continued to attack after receiving O'Neal's serve.

Still the same style of play, Liu Mang continued to single Ray Allen, entered the basket to compress the opponent's defense to the basket, and passed to O'Neal, the highest point on the court, a high-quality inside passer who averaged 4 assists per game in his peak period.

but……

Just as Liu Mang was relieved, he was immediately crushed by O'Neill's style of play.

O'Neal still didn't pass. This time McGrady went to the free throw line after the pick-and-roll, and O'Neill didn't pass.
"Shaq, what are you doing!" Liu Mang was a little annoyed, this fat man didn't mean anything!
"Woo..." O'Neill made a face at Liu Mang and McGrady, and walked to the free throw line.

Liu Mang understood, it's not that the fat man doesn't want to win, but he doesn't want to give the All-Star MVP to their Eagles players!

O'Neal's first singles just now is debatable, but if he hadn't been fouled the second time, with his current physical fitness, he could have played two. On the defensive end, O'Neal also tried his best, and he couldn't defend because the opponent's entire team was all-star.

But O'Neal wants to win and also wants to grab the MVP!

"Fatty! Shameless!" Liu Mang couldn't help pointing at O'Neal and yelled angrily.

O'Neill just stood on the free throw line, when he heard Liu Mang's words, he glared at Liu Mang angrily.

Liu Mang pointed at O'Neill and cursed, and everyone around was shocked!
This is too direct!
O'Neal didn't pass the ball to McGrady, and the West team also saw it, and it wasn't surprising that O'Neal was that kind of person.

But Liu Mang pointed at O'Neal and scolded. Not only did McGrady feel scared, but the western team didn't expect that Liu Mang would scold O'Neal because of this. After all, except for Kobe's desperate fight for the All-Star MVP, the two teams wanted to win more.

But I didn't expect Liu Mang to care so much!

O'Neal walked towards Liu Mang angrily.

Everyone around was frightened, and the referee ran over quickly. The referee didn't expect this to happen!
What they were worried about was the conflict between the eastern and western teams, but they didn't expect it to be a conflict within the eastern team!
This guy Liu Mang, the referees feel hard to guard against!The referee Binder, who was wearing the No. 33 referee uniform, was so desperate: God, take this guy away!What a sin I have committed. I managed to call the All-Star once, and this kind of thing happened to me.

There was even an uproar at the scene, and the Eastern Army actually had internal strife!

It is still the strongest outside and inside infighting in the East!
Is this the rhythm of losing?

But... being narrow-minded is all about narrow-mindedness, but he is thick-skinned and knows that this time is his own problem. He has long expected that Liu Mang will be angry. Under the watchful eyes of Kobe's undisguised expectation, Duncan's silent expectation, and the referee's face of despair, O'Neill walked up to Liu Mang and said to Liu Mang, "Short man, who do you think is a fat man?"

"It's you! Fatty! And I'm not short!"

"You're a dwarf! I'm not fat, I'm strong!"

"Fatty!"

"Damn dwarf!"

"..."

"..."

The people around were stunned again...

These two...

Is it a child?
What's the difference between that and "Shabby...bounce...bounce again...bounce again..."?
The referee looked at the conversation between Liu Mang and O'Neal, and was ready to try to pull O'Neal away. After watching Liu Mang and O'Neal spar, they both turned around arrogantly. Liu Mang went to grab the rebound, and O'Neal returned to the free throw line.

The referee felt a mouthful of old blood clogging his throat, felt a little dizzy, and glanced at the ceiling: Ace, I beg you, don't bother us referees...

It seemed as if he was about to start a fight, but he immediately returned to the rhythm of the game, and there was no delay. Just a few seconds of confrontation, which was about the same time as the celebration of the side that made a profit after causing a foul. The referee tried to adjust his breathing and kept the whistle away from his mouth.

It's just that when the referee sent the ball to O'Neal, he felt very sad: I feel sorry for calling this technical foul, but who will comfort me?

O'Neill's first free throw... iron...

The second penalty...is still iron!
Liu Mang tried his best to squeeze in from Nowitzki to grab a rebound, but Nowitzki stopped Bosh from Duncan's side and overwhelmed Liu Mang to get the defensive rebound.

Nowitzki is known for his rebounding, but his rebounding is not bad at all, mainly in terms of defensive rebounds. He averaged 8.9 defensive rebounds per game this season, more than Duncan... Duncan has more rebounds, mainly because offensive rebounds are usually more than 2.5 times that of Nowitzki.

The Eastern Army retreated, and Liu Mang watched O'Neill actively retreat, and he was really convinced by this fat man!

Los Angeles superstars are childish ghosts!
