Chapter 116 116. Fighting Peyton Again
Seattle is a good place, a leading city in the world for high-tech technology.

Advanced technology brings great wealth, and it may be one of the most modern and technologically advanced cities in the world.

But again, the environment here is getting worse every year. In order to avoid being caught up by other countries in terms of technology, the United States refuses to sign environmental pollution prevention regulations together with Israel. There is no limit on emissions here, so the environment in spring and autumn is actually particularly bad every year.

Fortunately, this place belongs to the bay, with abundant rainfall in summer and sufficient monsoon in winter, blowing away the pollutants every winter and summer. It is known as the best city to work, because the per capita salary here has always been ranked among the top in the world.

Therefore, the fans here are very similar to the fans in Houston. They are calm, and they are very calm in the finals.

NBA teams basically have a psychological advantage and play better when playing at home, but the Rockets and the Supersonics are different. They are the most special away team.

So although the Eagles didn't deal with the Sonics very much this year, the coaching staff didn't worry about the players going out and having an accident at all.

The game will be played at 5 pm. After the game, I will go to the airport to fly to California, and tomorrow there will be a back-to-back with the Kings.

In the next three games, theoretically speaking, they are not on the same level as the Eagles.

Xizheng has won two victories, and the goal of the Eagles coaching staff is to win one victory in the next three games.

But players must compete in every game, especially a team like the Eagles, which has made a surprising start this year, has a higher fighting spirit and self-pursuit.

The same goes for Liu Mang.

He wants to win more games, play more exciting performances, get more superstar points and level up all skills.

Although the system evaluates Liu Mang's several skills to be at full level, his personal ability can only be raised to 60, because the base is too low, the basic ability is too low, and the bonus of skills is not large.

But this does not reduce Liu Mang's motivation to upgrade his skills to the fullest, on the contrary, it strengthens it!

Because the skills are full, he can focus more on training, don't have to worry about drawing skill upgrade cards, and start saving more energy potions!Slowly he discovered that the physical potion that he didn't care about before was the biggest bug!

……

Walking onto the court, Liu Mang found a cold gaze staring at him, followed the direction of the gaze, and found that it was Payton!
Seeing that Liu Mang found himself staring at him, Peyton grunted and turned his head.

Liu Mang snorted, you cheapskate, you still remember the last game.

Thanks to the Eagles, the Sonics are now ranked seventh in the Western Conference, overtaking the Trail Blazers.

This game is neither paternal nor mother loving. Except for the official camera team that is necessary for each game to archive and save data, there is not even a single broadcaster on site. Even the local TV station did not broadcast this game today. It is broadcasting the NFL Seahawks game. The Seahawks are Seattle’s hero team.

The atmosphere of the fans at the scene was a bit awkward. Liu Mang didn't feel the "enthusiasm" of the away fans at all. The attendance rate was not bad. After all, it was a playoff team. But when the fans came to watch the game, many people probably stopped by to watch the game just after work. Many people were in suits and leather shoes, and there was no atmosphere of watching the game at all.

Both sides debut!

The Eagles continue to have the starting five tigers, and the Sonics also continue to send Payton, Barry, Lewis, Drummond Mason, and Vin Baker.

Payton worked very hard, unlike the last time he played against the Eagles with contempt, this time he went all out at the beginning. After Mason won the jump ball, Payton broke through the inside and scored 2+1 for the first time.

Except for Payton, the other players of the Sonics also worked very hard. The last game they lost in the away game was too embarrassing. They obviously had a big advantage at the beginning, but all the unlucky things happened. The boss of the team was even sent off.

Jason Terry was about to cry when he was guarded by Payton who was desperate. Payton kept chattering in the glove, and he didn't slacken his hand at all. The physical confrontation was fierce. Jason Terry missed the rookie so much!
However, after the record improved, Rahim’s confidence began to increase. He had no fighting spirit in the Vancouver Grizzlies before. In addition to personality problems, the Grizzlies have always been the league’s super bad team, which has been poor every year. So far, the Grizzlies have not won more than 20 wins in a season in the team history of [-] years. How much confidence can a player who has played in this kind of team have for a long time?
Now Raheem finds that he is still very capable and has the capital to win!The mentality has changed a lot, and he is more confident. Facing the white man who can fly, Barry's excellent defense played brilliantly. When he was locked up by Gary Payton and Lewis in the backcourt, he succeeded in consecutive singles in the interior and tightly bit the score.

The scene seemed anxious, but the Sonics were one of the best teams in the Western Conference in the last ten years after all. The lineup was deep and deep. After two or three minutes of playing, coach Nate McMillan took the lead in responding.

One is 1.9 meters 1.8, two anti-aircraft guns over [-] meters, Muhammad and Rahim can only defend two of them at most, Jason Terry is naturally unwilling to defend Payton, so he has to defend pitchers, but his height of [-] meters [-] will suffer no matter which pitcher he defends.

Not only that, after Radmanovic came up, the height of the Supersonic inside increased. Although Radmanovic's defense can only be regarded as average, but because Muhammad has no shooting ability, most of Rahim's scoring methods are inside.
The supersonic shot first, hit the Eagles suddenly, hit consecutive three-pointers, beat the Eagles 12 to 5, and the point difference was pulled to more than 5 points!
Coach Kruger quickly called a timeout!

11 to 18, less than 6 minutes into the game, the Eagles trailed by 7 points!

"This lineup is broken! Tall is tall, short is short." Coach Kruger was very anxious. This has always been a problem. The height of the Eagles' frontcourt players has advantages against many teams.

But the back line, except for Liu Mang, there is no one over 1.9 meters!
Coach Kruger waved to Liu Mang, meaning to ask Liu Mang to go up and find a way to solve this problem!At least the offensive end has to solve the problem.

Coach Kruger is thinking about how to talk to the boss about the trade when he goes back. The boss is not so easy to talk to, and he is unlikely to invest more money... He suddenly saw Liu Mang coming up, what is this kid doing here if he doesn't play?
"Coach, how do I go up and fight! You haven't arranged tactics yet!" Liu Mang asked.

"Go up! When did you fight according to tactics!"
