From today on is the king

Chapter 1332 1331. The New Tactics of the Eagle Horse War (55+65)

The Eagles play the Spurs away!
Although the Eagles have a "poor record" in the regular season and only rank third in the Eastern Conference, they are still regarded as one of the favorites for the championship.

The Spurs' regular season record is also "poor". So far this season, the Spurs' winning percentage is a new low at this stage since the new century. In the past seven seasons, except for 2000, 2004, and 2005, the Spurs have ranked first in the Western Conference four times. The worst is this time, "only" third in the Western Conference.

But the Spurs are still one of the top three Lakers and Bulls in the West, and they are the favorites for the championship.

The two teams met for the first time this season, and the game was broadcast live on ESPN and SBC broadcasters.

By five o'clock in the afternoon, when the Eagles had finished their lunch and were about to warm up, many reporters had asked for interviews.

The main reason is that Liu Mang made Duncan popular again, and the ratings of the Spurs' games this season have also increased a lot.

This is what the NBA is very happy to see. A popular superstar can not only increase the ratings of his own team, but also drive the ratings of other teams. The league is more looking forward to Liu Mang's next analysis object than the fans. It also organized a vote on "Who is Ace's next target" on the homepage of the official website. Among them, Kobe, who also wears the No. 24 jersey, and James, who has the No. 23 jersey in the two versions of the 24VS23 that people are looking forward to, ranked in the top two.

……

After the stretching and massage, Liu Mang came to the training ground to practice shooting, and rehearse pick-and-roll moves with his teammates. Before the practice, Liu Mang said to the system: "Boss of the system, use the mid-level superstar value to draw a lottery, and specify the action package."

170792 superstar points, draw an action pack to celebrate playing against the Spurs!

"The host uses the mid-level superstar value to draw a lottery, and the specified type of action pack consumes 10000 superstar points..."

"Ding... Congratulations to the host for getting the Kyrie Irving sideways action pack."

"watt?"

Liu Mang knew that the shooting bag was relatively the easiest to obtain, and the technical moves were relatively difficult to obtain. This time he was lucky, and got a change of direction action bag.

Looking at Irving's high position change in my mind, it's a bit handsome!Durant's breakthrough is much more handsome than Liu Mang's impression of Durant's breakthrough that the fans said blindly!

It may be because of his appearance, Owen's high breakthrough really looks much more handsome!
Liu Mang remembered that Irving's breakthrough from outside the three-point line was actually mediocre, requiring pick-and-roll cooperation, but the range of movement outside the three-point line was narrowed. Relatively speaking, after the defender's range of movement became smaller, Owen's change of direction became even more powerful!
Coupled with Irving's extremely strong pull-down ability at the basket...

That sense of rhythm, that breakthrough...

Liu Mang's eyes lit up!

I'm looking forward to it, will Popovich use Artest to defend him, or use the team to defend?
……

……

At [-]:[-] p.m., Liu Mang and his teammates entered the court at the ATT Center.

The boos were all over the sky, even if Liu Mang and Duncan, who wanted to be on TV, greeted each other shoulder to shoulder, the fans were still booing Liu Mang.

Liu Mang was used to this situation.

When greeting Duncan, Ginobili, Parker, Michael Finley, and Artest, Liu Mang took a look at their ability evaluations.

Duncan...ability rating of 100...

It broke a hundred again!

Liu Mang felt like a dog, he was really at his peak!
The attack at the basket has been reduced to 95. Duncan's weight this season is only 117 kilograms, which is an order of magnitude lighter than the original 122 kilograms and Kwame Brown's weight, and his strength has also dropped to 94.

But the speed is back to 80, which is fast among power forwards and centers.

But the CIC has been raised to 92. With Duncan's better and better shooting options now, he has the second highest shooting percentage of his career, which is only a little worse than when he was still a peak admiral in his rookie season.

Duncan's biggest flaw this season is his free throws. Liu Mang doesn't understand how a player with a 40.00% mid-range shooting percentage can shoot 60.00% of his free throws...

Parker has an ability rating of 90. At his peak, his layup ability rating reached 98. He shot 70.00% in the three-second zone and averaged 9.4 points per game in the three-second zone... Higher than Duncan, but the three-pointer is basically equal to 0. Mid-range shots are limited to close-range throws. There are more free throws, averaging 5 free throws per game, making it more difficult to defend.

Ginobili still has an ability evaluation of 91, all-round, good physical fitness, 29 years old, and at the peak of his career.

Artest, with an ability rating of 84, is in a restricted state.

Unlike McGrady, who came to the Eagles in the first season and transformed into an organizer, and transformed into a scoring and defensive leader in the second season, Artest did not take the initiative to change, but was similar to Nash, unable to exert his full capabilities.

There is still a big difference between being restricted and adjusting to the assist king mode and adjusting to the offensive and defensive vanguard mode.

However, Artest's 97 defensive evaluation is still a headache.

In addition to the Spurs, there are Bonner, Oberto, Finley, Udri, Jacqui Vaughan, Francisco Elson...

The soldiers are strong and the horses are strong!

This season's salary is almost 6000 million, and the Spurs really worked hard, a full 1000 million more than last season.

Troika plus Artest, Mihawk plus Marion plus Kwame-Brown, All-Star Wars!

……

After the US imperial anthem and preparations before the game, Liu Mang sprinkled magnesium powder into the air, drawing boos, and went on stage with his teammates.

The starting lineup of Liu Mang, McGrady, Prince, Marion and Kwame Brown remains unchanged.

For the Spurs, the starting lineup was adjusted according to the fast characteristics of the Eagles. The starting lineup of Parker, James White, Artest, Fabricio Oberto, and Duncan debuted.

The seven-foot veteran Elson, who was originally partnered with Duncan, was put on the bench, and Ginobili's national team teammate Argentine veteran center Oberto, who was [-] meters tall, was replaced.

Although Oberto is only in the second grade, he is already 32 years old. Although he is white, he is much faster than Elson. After adapting last season, he renewed his contract with the Spurs for 3 million in three years. He can switch defenses and defend the basket.

Oberto's defense, which Liu Mang saw in the World Championships, is very good, making up for the weakness of the Spurs' lack of defensive mobility after losing Muhammad.

The two champion centers came to the middle circle to jump the ball.

Kwame Brown met a super insider again, a guy who insisted that he was a power forward, and was very serious about preparing to jump the ball.

After Duncan came to the middle circle and waited for the referee to blow the game whistle, he twisted his hips and swayed his body, and suddenly said to Kwame Brown: "Kwame, I heard that you really want to guard me, do you want me to teach you?"

"Watts?" Kwame Brown felt that this guy's head was watts!
"You want to lie to me?" If you are honest and honest, don't lie like the boss!It was a lie that Kwame Brown didn't believe at all.

Ignoring the jumpy guy, Kwame Brown focused on the jump ball.

At exactly seven o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air.

Kwame Brown won the jump ball over Duncan, who had declined in physical fitness, and the Eagles went first.

Liu Mang received the serve and met James White's defense!

The Spurs sent this second-round pick to play, which really surprised Liu Mang.

"James White, ability evaluation 55, offense 51, defense 60, three-pointer 39, mid-range shooting 46, layup 81, speed 93, strength 77, bounce 100...Characteristics: performative dunker."

A CBA superstar is better than this guy!
His physical fitness is amazing, but he has no skills at all, and he has no offensive awareness.

The Spurs like to find some weird players. Oberto is also a weird player in Liu Mang's eyes. His characteristics may not be used by other teams, but when it comes to the Spurs, he has become the third insider.

But... Liu Reck went beyond the three-point line, and after being stuck by White's meaningless defense, Liu Reck observed the opponent's defense, and felt that the opponent seemed to be deliberately trying to let him break through!
The defensive position on the inside is too obvious, and White's defense is close defense, fast, good bounce, and a clear conspiracy!

This...is exactly what Liu Mang wanted!
Liu Mang made a gesture and squeezed James White to break through!
As soon as he reached the free throw line, Parker blocked it, and White came to the left side of Liu Mang and interfered with the passing route between Liu Mang and Prince.

At this time, Marion ran from the right bottom corner to the top arc according to the tactics!

After passing the middle distance, Liu Mang handed the ball to Marion!

Eagles run that the Spurs haven't seen!

At this time, Liu Mang went to the basket and went up to help Kwame Brown block Duncan. Duncan's eyes widened. He watched Kwame Brown throw it to Tracy McGrady for a pick-and-roll, but he didn't dare to follow him.

At the same time, Prince cuts to the basket from the left. When Prince reached the left side of the three-second zone, Liu Mang bypassed Duncan, ran out from the baseline, and rushed to the 45-degree angle on the right.

When Liu Mang ran to a 45-degree angle, McGrady, who used Kwame Brown's pick-and-roll, went up to block Oberto. Marion handed the ball to McGrady, McGrady cut to the top arc, and Marion cut from the right.

Artest went after Marion who was running to the right corner, Duncan was pinned down by Prince's height of 45 meters, Oberto chased the cutting Kwame Brown, Parker and James White defended McGrady's top arc three-pointer, when McGrady reached the top arc, Liu Mang just ran to the left [-]-degree angle, McGrady immediately passed to Liu Mang, Liu Mang received the ball, wide open!

"Ding... quick shot master level 5 trigger..."

Liu Mang received the ball, shot in 0.7 seconds, and didn't even give Parker and James White a chance to defend by speed!
This kind of unhindered running and shooting, Liu Mang felt great, and hit an open three-pointer!

Not to mention that the Spurs were confused by the Hawks' three cuts and three back runs. Popovich on the sidelines was a little confused, but after thinking about it, this tactic is so simple!
It's Liu Mang's cut, Prince's cut, Kwame Brown's reverse run and Marion's reverse run.

Then put the Spurs' defense in the area to the right of the top arc!

The weakness of no high position support was made up for, and the Eagles adopted the top arc support of McGrady and Marion!
In terms of tactical structure, it is still Princeton!
The Eagles gave it a hard time when they came up!An unexpected tactic was used by the Spurs.

And it's easy to say, but it's not so easy to implement, and the requirements for strength are very high!That's what the Eagles can do.

Even Prince's height advantage and Liu Mang's strength advantage on the outside were utilized, and they were utilized at the basket.

Looking at Coach Kruger's less hair, Popovich felt that this guy deserved it!

Popovich is going to take a closer look at the Eagles' offensive tactics first. If there is no first attack, it will call a timeout, and he can't think of a solution at once.

And...the Eagles have many stars, and they also have many Spurs!In order to perfect the system he imagined, Popovich needs to absorb a lot of other people's tactics, and he also wants to see what kind of moth the Eagles want to fix.

The Spurs attacked, and Parker advanced to the frontcourt. This season, he is more confident. His ability to finish at the basket is better than Liu Wei and James!Among perimeter players, he ranks first in the league in field goal percentage at the basket!

Instead of singles at the start, Parker passed the ball to Duncan who was stuck at the basket and asked for the ball.

Duncan's strength is almost the same as Kwame Brown's now. Duncan's strength rating is a little higher, and Kwame Brown's weight is a little bigger, which is basically the same. Duncan relies on the experience of being stuck.

Oberto's 40.00% mid-range shooting percentage of [-] is quite a headache for opponents. Several insiders in Argentina are of that type. Marion dare not attack, and puts his hope on Kwame Brown's tyrannical single defense.

Kwame Brown defended very hard, and he was worthy of Duncan in terms of speed, confrontation, and jumping, but Duncan's singles were weird, and he felt more and more like an old man. He obviously didn't move fast, but he got a chance to make a move!
Duncan turned and moved laterally, and the jump hook shot outside the three-second zone on the right side of the basket...

in!

A back slap took five seconds, and it was Duncan!
Not only is the mid-distance hit at a 45-degree angle accurate, Duncan's mid- and short-distance jump hooks outside the three-second zone on the left and right sides are also accurate!
"You should be tighter. When I turned around just now, you should press up. I'm not accurate in free throws. Don't be afraid of fouls. When I turn around, you should guard my right hand. My left hand is not accurate." Duncan whispered to Kwame Brown expressionlessly after scoring, and then turned back to defend.

"#￥#%..." It really started teaching on the spot!
Not afraid of fouls?Kwame Brown said: I am the core center!Even if he is not afraid of fouls, this old man is just as the boss said, this old man is very bad!

Liu Mang looked very upset after watching Kwame Brown and Duncan bite their ears. It felt weird. Duncan also talked trash?

This guy has learned badly!Who taught the ignorant idiot Deng badly!

The one-on-one singles of stars is one of the most unsolvable tactics. They have strength and no tactics are needed.

The wealth of the Spurs team history!

When it came time for the Eagles to attack, Popovich's eyes widened on the sidelines. It depended on how the Eagles were going to play. It was easy to learn. Watching the video was no better than the intuitive feeling of watching it live.

Just when Popovich was expecting it, Liu Mang dribbled to the frontcourt, handed the ball to McGrady, and then desperately helped McGrady block Artest. McGrady broke into the middle distance and jumped up against Duncan like a day, leaning on Duncan's big hook with his back to the basket...

"Watt Faco?"

Popovich looked at Medina's wave ratio throw, and it went in!

The Spurs players just talked about how to block and block people, but it was completely useless!
Popovich covered his face helplessly. He remembered that the other party was an eagle... how could he use common sense to judge...

Not to mention Popovich, coach Kruger looked at McGrady's butt-pouting and leaning-over reflexive hook, it was very painful, McGrady... is getting more and more flamboyant...

A goal is a good goal. This has always been the goal of the Eagles. If they didn't have this kind of mental preparation, they would have been driven crazy by Liu Mang.

Popovich was depressed for a moment, and immediately called a timeout, not to adjust tactics, but Liu Mang and McGrady feel a little better!
