From today on is the king

Chapter 1510 Chapter 1509. 58 of Dreaming on the Show
A team like the Spurs that hasn't dropped out of the top three in the Western Conference after getting Duncan, or a team like the Eagles that hasn't missed the conference finals after getting Liu Mang, has to go back to the Celtics in the 50s and 60s.

The salary of the Mavericks has been getting higher year by year in recent years. Last season almost made people think that another super team was born. If the Mavericks didn't waste their money, they could get 68 wins.

However, the Mavericks used the performance of last season's playoffs and the start of this season to set off how difficult it is for the Spurs to be as stable.

The stability of the Spurs has been maintained for 10 years, and now it is No. 11.

The Eagles have also been in the Eastern Conference finals for six consecutive years, and this year they are once again standing in the league's first position.

The two systems of East Eagle and West Spurs have become representatives of stability in the eyes of fans and the media.

121比103，靠着刘莽的21分4板14助攻，老鹰队轻松击败小牛队拿到四连胜。

It was so easy that the Eagles felt surprised.

The first game month is over!
Counting the two games at the end of October, the Hawks got off to a 10-14 start.

It is only one game away from the Spurs' 16-2 start.

After the first month of competition, the general strength of each team in the new season can be seen.

In the East, the Eagles and Raptors are currently the first echelon. The Eagles have 14 wins and 2 losses, and the Raptors have 13 wins and 4 losses.

Then the Cavaliers, Bulls, and Magic competed for third to fifth. After the Raptors went to second, the competition between the third to fifth teams became more intense, and they may all fall to fifth.

The Bobcats have become the only team in the East. With 9 wins and 9 losses, it is difficult for the Bobcats to catch up with the 12 wins and 6 losses of the Bulls who are currently ranked fifth in the East. The Wizards behind the Bobcats are 7 wins and 11 losses.

Since the Bobcats, there has been no team in the Eastern Conference with a .[-] winning percentage.

In the West, the Spurs are the only team in the league.

Afterwards, the Lakers, Suns, Jazz, Nuggets... and other teams all won 10 to 12 wins. The Mavericks, who just lost to the Eagles and suffered a three-game losing streak, all had 10 wins and 8 losses.

However, since the Mavericks, there has been no team with a winning percentage of more than 5% since the tenth in the Western Conference. The tenth Warriors only have 8 wins and 10 losses.

The West is magical, everything is magical...

……

On the morning of December 12st, Liu Mang slept late, and after returning home from the game last night, it was too late to play the newly released True Three Five with Little Lolita.

After sleeping until 10 o'clock, when he woke up and saw the text message from Stockton, Liu Mang knew that something good was coming!
November is the best month in the East!
过去的11月份，刘莽场均27.1分5.5板9.5助攻1.5抢断2.1盖帽，虽然有2.9次犯规和3.3次失误，但瑕不掩瑜，配上老鹰队14胜2负的战绩，刘莽拿到了3次周最佳和当月月最佳！
In the West, Duncan won the best of the month for the fourth time in his career.

The number of best of the week and best of the month can greatly affect the ownership of the MVP. Of course, this bonus is much smaller for Liu Mang. He has already won the MVP twice in a row. If he wants to win the MVP again, the requirements are much higher than others.

But getting it is definitely better than not getting it, a little bonus is a little bit.

On the first day of the new month, the Eagles did not arrange training. Although there will be a game tomorrow, rest is also very important.

Counting the Mavericks, the Eagles are now on an easy schedule with six straight home games.

The Eagles still only played 12 games in December, which is also the team with the fewest games in December. Even the two popular teams, the Cavaliers and the Lakers, played 14 games.

老鹰队接下来先在明天打黄蜂，4号和5号背靠背打76人和森林狼，7号和9号打活塞和灰熊。

While rinsing his mouth, Liu Mang flipped through the schedule for the new month. Except for the Magic on the 11th, the Raptors on the 13th, and the Jazz on the 18th, there were basically no strong opponents.

The last game of the month is against the Mavericks again...

Liu Mang felt that everything was wonderful.

After washing up, Liu Mang went to the gymnasium to practice with the little girl who was on weekends. At noon when Stockton notified, the league officials brought the best of the month trophy.

Except for his rookie season, Liu Mang has won the best of the month at least once every season since his second year, and with this, it is already the 1th best of the month.

Among the active players, only Kobe has more 13 monthly bests than Liu Mang.

Moreover, only Liu Mang's 10 times, O'Neal's 12 times, and Kobe's 12 times are among the active players who have reached the best number of times in the month.

When Kobe and O'Neal partnered, Kobe played hard in the regular season, and the Lakers had a good record. In the eight years of Kobe and O'Neal's partnership, Kobe had 7 best-of-the-month times, and O'Neal had only 4 times.

Ranked fourth in active service is Garnett's 8 best of the month, followed by Duncan, Nowitzki, and James' four best of the month.

The first in history is Jordan's 16 times.

Liu Mang is a bargain. In the season he entered the NBA, the league just split the best of the month into two best of the month in the east and west. Otherwise, it is possible for Jordan to add seven or eight best of the month.

……

After the awards were presented, the owner of the Eagles took the league officials to lunch. Liu Mang and Xiao Luoli ate a piece of pizza together with a nutritious lunch, and started training.

The team did not arrange training, but Liu Mang still had to practice by himself.

Liu Mang was practicing shooting, and Little Lolita was picking up the ball with Emmanuel.

Seeing that Emmanuel was sweating after picking up a ball in the winter, the little loli felt that he was very pitiful.

Just when Liu Mang was practicing vigorously, a 58 man with 183 on his chest came...

"Boss Ace, you are indeed here!" Paul saw Liu Mang after entering the home team's training ground, and immediately greeted him.

Hearing the call, Liu Mang turned his head and saw, "9527 is your lifelong code name..."

Replacing Paul, that would be "18358 is your lifetime code name..."

Liu Mang shook his head to get rid of those strange voices in his head, and responded: "Chris, didn't you guys have a game yesterday? You came to practice just after arriving in Atlanta? You really worked hard!"

"I'm going to play against you tomorrow. Of course I will work hard. Tyshawn and Kevin have also been there, but they were exhausted from defending against Kobe yesterday, so they can only rest in the hotel." Paul replied.

"I went home to watch the overtime of yesterday's game. It's a pity that you guys won by two points." Liu Mang thought of the double overtime between the Lakers and the Hornets yesterday, and Paul still couldn't beat Kobe in the end, feeling very regretful.

刘莽昨晚还真和小萝莉一起看了那两个加时，保罗全场打了51分钟拿到15分21助攻，刷新个人生涯单场助攻新高，但没能敌得过科比30分13板11助攻的表现。

"I can't help it. Kobe made three three-pointers in a row at the end. We led by five points in the second overtime. We also defended Kobe on 5-of-28. Who knew he could score three in a row." Paul was also very depressed when he said this.

Kobe played the full 48 minutes of regular time, and the first overtime was also full. After 53 minutes, Prince and Durant took turns to attack Kobe... No, they took turns defending Kobe. Kobe took 53 shots in the first 28 minutes before scoring 21 points. As a result, he scored three three-pointers in the last 2 minutes of the second overtime...

After exhausting Prince and Durant out of energy, throw the ball in!

So, Kobe, who played 58 minutes, beat 58...

Since the new century, only Iverson, Kobe and Liu Mang have used this "strategy".

But Liu Mang actually felt admiration from Paul's tone!
This is not a good sign!Liu Mang has the impression that in the original time and space, when Paul was traded to the Lakers in 2012, he took the initiative to call Kobe Bryant...

"Chris, you are actually stronger than Kobe! In addition to being able to make mid-range shots and throw three-pointers like him, you can also assist! You are a combination of Kidd and Kobe, and you are better than Kobe! He played so badly in front. If there is no three towers inside, they would have lost!" Liu Mang stared into Paul's eyes, with an expression that I liked you.

Paul didn't realize he was there either, he just felt that Liu Mang wanted to comfort and encourage him, and the depression of losing in double overtime yesterday dissipated a lot.

Looking at Paul, Liu Mang felt that Paul's corrupt thoughts should be reversed. The Hornets are one of his crap sticks inserted in the West. How could he let this little brother have the idea of ​​helping others? He must slowly and subtly make the little brother full of hostility towards Kobe.

Fortunately, it was still early. Paul was only in his third year. After his rookie contract ended, the Hornets would definitely match any offer no matter what. He was in the top three of the MVP list repeatedly in his third year. Among rookies since the beginning of the new century, only Liu Mang and James have done it.

After chatting about the game, Paul and Liu Mang started sparring.

With an opponent to practice with, or an opponent like Paul who has the strength of the best defensive team in the third grade, Liu Mang's training effect will of course be better.

Paul also cherishes every opportunity to train with Liu Mang, and the two are very involved in training.

From three-point duels, to CIC duels, to one-on-one, to two-person technical exchanges...

Three hours passed quickly, and at four o'clock, the two of them finished their training, took a shower together, and then received massage and ice packs from the Eagles physiotherapist.

Looking at Paul who was very excited to receive physical therapy, Liu Mang complained: "Chris, you didn't come here today to brush up on the skills of our team's team doctor, did you?"

"Boss, you got it right! You and the Suns' team doctor are the best in the league, and I want to feel it too." Paul replied without any hesitation.

"..." Liu Mang rolled his eyes, not knowing what to say.

Seeing that Liu Mang was speechless, Paul stopped joking and said, "Boss, I have one more thing."

"what's up?"

"Can you give me a better nickname on the show?"

"You want to be analyzed too? Yes, I planned to record a program analyzing your team after the game with you tomorrow. You are already one of the best teams in the Western Conference and one of our imaginary opponents." Liu Mang put a high hat on Paul.

"It's so cool! I can also be the protagonist of your show, Boss! Boss, I have already figured out my nickname, can you use the nickname I said to help me get a nickname?" Paul asked expectantly.

Liu Mang looked at Brother Xiao Pao, and was speechless again, and brought himself to give himself a nickname?That fat shark had a good and bad head.

But that's not important, Liu Mang nodded and said, "Of course, Chris, what kind of nickname do you want?"

"Nangboer Feifu is very special!" Paul's eyes lit up!
"Okay, 58... what? Are you sure?"

Liu Mang didn't expect Paul to like this number so much...

Seeing Paul's firm nod, Liu Mang felt weird... "Xiao Pao's current teammates, it is unlikely that they will be 58 in the playoffs, right? Probably..."
