From today on is the king

Chapter 1180 1179. The Pacers Strike

In the past 30 years, the only player in the NBA who can compete with Kobe Bryant is the legendary man, Michael Jordan. In the 1986-1987 season, he set a record of 14.4 irons per game that even Liu Mang could not match. However, this year, Jordan can only bow down!
Kobe averaged 14.5 irons per game, setting a new record for average irons per game since the merger of the NBA and the ABA!

When Liu Mang saw Kobe's blacksmithing data, he was also taken aback, it was too scary!He thought about how he had done that last year, and he averaged 14.1 irons per game. How did he get the 14.5 irons per game...

Liu Mang checked Yao Ming's statistics by the way. Yao Ming played 75 games, averaged 14 shots per game, 60.00% shooting rate, 8.5 shots per game, and averaged 22 points and 11 rebounds per game.

Yao Ming has less shots than Kobe Bryant!
Liu Mang made a calculation, if Kobe Bryant's phone was given to Yao Ming, Yao Ming would average 44 points per game!

Liu Mang checked Kobe's specific statistics. He averaged 27.3 shots per game, 12.8 shots per game, 40.00% shooting rate of 36.1%, and averaged [-] points per game.

Liu Mang understood that Kobe found it difficult for him to surpass Jordan by taking the traditional route, so he took an alternative route!
Create a blacksmithing record that no one can beat!

Both Liu Mang and Iverson had difficulty competing with Kobe in their peak seasons, so they had no choice but to bow down...

……

……

On April 4th, Liu Mang had a good night's sleep after a day of exhaustion and recovered his matching nerves.

At 20:07 in the morning on the 30th, the little loli lay down next to Liu Mang and fell asleep in the cage. Originally, the little loli had washed up at six o'clock and came down to go for a morning run with Liu Mang. But when she saw Liu Mang sleeping soundly, she didn't bother Liu Mang and fell asleep next to Liu Mang.

Hurry up to wake up the little loli who was dizzy from sleeping in the cage, eat something simple, and after sending the little loli and bodyguards to school, Liu Mang also came to the Phillips Arena and began to prepare for the opponents in the first round of the playoffs.

Phillips Arena still has traces of an event to thank the fans yesterday. It’s not that it was not cleaned up, but that there were too many people participating, and there were still a lot of debris on the streets outside the arena.

Yesterday, more than 5 people participated in the Eagles' lottery to give away 10 first-tier season tickets. Today, the garbage thrown by those fans on the streets has not been cleaned up.

Needless to say, this can be regarded as income generation. The labor of the United States to clean up the streets is still very expensive.

After Liu Mang came to the arena to warm up, he started shooting training. After nine o'clock, his teammates came one after another.

At ten o'clock, there was a tactical meeting about the first round of the playoffs against the Pacers. In the afternoon, the coaching staff had a holiday to let the players rest.

For the Eagles, 73 wins have brought huge popularity and income, but for the Eagles players, the record is too good and there are some troubles, too many activities to participate in, resulting in physical fitness being affected.

The Pacers, who only had a record of 39 wins and 43 losses in the first round of the playoffs, the Eagles coaching staff did not make too many training arrangements, so they can relax a little bit, let the players rest, and welcome the opener of the playoffs on the 21st.

All series have home-court advantage, which is important for the Hawks not to have to travel long distances for Game [-] of each series.

After the tactical meeting, most of the teammates went home to rest. Only Granger, who was a rookie, stayed with Liu Mang to practice two sets of shooting. Liu Mang felt that Granger was very silent, he didn't talk much, but worked hard, which Liu Mang appreciated.

Liu Mang practiced shooting for an extra hour in the afternoon, and he was going home to rest and watch the Pacers' video. Tomorrow is the opening game of the playoffs.

……

"Ace, do you think I can get the best sixth man?"

"Ace, my performance should be okay, right?"

"I didn't get the sixth man of the year last year, so I really want to get it this year..."

"..."

"..."

Liu Mang listened to Jason Terry talking to himself, and seemed to be asking him, but Jason Terry's mouth never stopped, and Liu Mang couldn't answer the conversation even if he wanted to.

Yesterday, the entire Hawks team looked exhausted due to the many activities on the 19th. Liu Mang was still a little worried, but now it seems that the teammates are mainly mentally exhausted. After a night of rest, they all looked lively again.

This morning, after Liu Mang received the assists leader's trophy from NBA officials, Jason Terry became restless.

Last year, Ben Gordon robbed him of the best sixth man. Jason Terry was very depressed. He didn't get the best sixth man for two consecutive years like Liu Mang.

But this year, Jason Terry is even more worried. Last year he was the Eagles' No. [-] scorer, but this year he is only No. [-]. During the regular season, he played around with the drinking fountain lineup during garbage time.

But when it came to the playoffs and awards, Jason Terry was not calm.

Liu Mang originally wanted to comfort Jason Terry, it doesn't matter if he doesn't win the award, and the record is so good, the media vote will definitely favor him, but he can't get in the words, this guy just wants to find someone to listen to him.

"Ace, hey, it's all my fault. I'm too careless. I knew I would get two more points per game... Hey, Ace, don't go, I haven't finished talking yet, why don't you comfort me..."

Comfort your head!Have you given the young master a chance to speak?Liu Mang didn't care about it, and left behind Jason Terry, who was thinking about it, to discuss with McGrady how to play in the playoffs.

"Tracey, let's change our playing style in the playoffs!" Liu Mang said to McGrady.

"I also think so. Your possession of the ball in the regular season is too concentrated, and it will be easy to be targeted in the playoffs." McGrady responded.

Liu Mang won the assists title in the regular season, purely from the perspective of the task. Last year, McGrady won the assists title in the regular season, and he averaged only 7 assists per game in the playoffs.

Apart from Wilt Chamberlain and Magic Johnson, Liu Mang really doesn't remember any other player who won the championship while being the assist leader.

As McGrady said, the ball is concentrated in the hands of one player, and it is too easy to be targeted.

However, generally speaking, the team of the player who wins the assist king is not bad. It is one of the seed teams in the playoffs, and even if they want to not concentrate the ball in the playoffs, it is impossible. , especially after 08, the Big Three hadn't completely aged yet, but Rondo's ball possession was too concentrated. After Rondo was injured in the playoffs, the Celtics' strength avalanche, and they were beaten 2010-4 by the Big Three by the Heat.

But the Eagles are different!
Liu Mang is a fool, if he says his style of play has changed, he has to change!

What is the purpose of finding so many talented teammates and waiting patiently for them to grow up? Isn't it because they are talented and resistant to grass!
Being talented and able to play changeable tactics is an important reason why Liu Mang has found so many young and talented teammates.

Otherwise, in terms of strength and stability, it is very important for the defending champion to find a group of veterans in their early 30s, but the Hawks did not make a big deal last summer, and did not use Iguodala or Josh Smith as a bargaining chip in exchange for those high-quality role players.

Just like at the beginning of the regular season, when Liu Mang suddenly said that he wanted to win the assists title when he was number one in the league after playing well, his teammates had to change accordingly.

Liu Mang discussed with McGrady and went to find Coach Kruger. Fortunately, at the tactical meeting yesterday, Coach Kruger arranged a tactical play that did not regard Liu Mang and McGrady as assist kings, that is, the regular Liu Mang, McGrady, and Rasheed-Wallace’s starting three-core tactics. With the experience of McGrady’s assist king last year, Coach Kruger also knew how to arrange tactics for Liu Mang.

The team has good talent, but it is so willful.

At 40:[-] noon, the Eagles conducted two [-]-minute tactical training sessions against the Pacers. After lunch, the players rested in the afternoon and watched video research. In the evening, the Eagles began to warm up. The playoffs are here!

……

……

2006年4月21号晚上七点五十，距离08:30开始的比赛还有四10分钟，两队球员已经入场了。

In the opening game of the Eagles' playoffs, there is a very important thing, the regular season championship banner!
After discussing with the league officials, they got two flags and reduced the size of the Eagles team logo. Each side has a small Eagles team logo. On the red and blue champion flag of the Eagles, one side is in English and the other is in Chinese. It says the 2005-2006 regular season championship and record, as well as the names of the team's coaching staff, players, and owners.

Although he knew that this was used by the management to win over the love of Chinese fans, and more importantly, he wanted to build a deeper player-team bond with him, Liu Mang still felt very excited!

Liu Mang knew that he was tied to the Eagles, and the team did everything that could be good for him.

However, Liu Mang has already prepared. He wants to be like Michael Jordan, who turned the Eagles into the Bulls. NBA fans will always remember their glorious years. He even wants the Eagles to become the third team in NBA history in his career. It is impossible to catch up with the Lakers and Celtics.
