From today on is the king

Chapter 578
The Hawks beat the Raptors 109 to 93 to win the opening three-game winning streak, but it did not cause much reaction.

The Hawks started off with an easy schedule, but the Magic and Raptors, two potential playoff contenders, suddenly collapsed. The three teams they encountered in the opening game were more than one. The Eagles still had a little chance of making headlines when they lost, but none of them came out after winning.

Of course, this is mainly about the basketball world in the United States. The domestic court table is now very friendly to its own players who go overseas to play. They praise them when they win, and encourage them when they lose.

Of course, it’s hard to say about forums and portals. Maybe no matter how well played, there will be a bunch of hackers.

The main thing is the United States. The Eagles have been good enough in the past two years. Unless they go further, their current lineup has been strengthened and they are playing against such a weak opponent. Apart from mentioning that the Eagles have won three consecutive victories, it is difficult to give more than one comment.

But if they lose, there will be a lot of criticism for miscalculating signings and so on.

But because of this, the Eagles got time to develop insignificantly in silence.

On the morning of the second day after the game against the Raptors, Liu Mang finished training, took a shower, had breakfast, and was ready to leave for the airport. Next, the Eagles had a five-game winning streak. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, they will usher in their first back-to-back away games of the season, playing the Hornets and the Supersonics. These two teams are considered to be capable of playing in the playoffs, especially the Hornets.

Just when Liu Mang went back to the room to pack his luggage, he saw that his backpack had been packed, and Alexia also took a big box and packed his coat, jacket, sneakers and so on.

"Aida, you don't need to bring so many things, I'm wearing them." Liu Mang said speechlessly when he saw that Alexia seemed to be packing all his coats into the box.

"You have to go out for more than ten days, how can you only have that one coat, you are a big star now." Although Alexia also felt that it was a bit exaggerated, she had stuffed seven or eight coats, but she couldn't help complaining about Liu Mang. She picked and kept five sets, so that Liu Mang could wear different coats when he went to each away game, but after emptying the coat, he stuffed a few more warm clothes into it, "It's cold in the north, you should wear more clothes when you go out."

"Aida, why are you like my mother, who loves to worry so much?" Liu Mang felt something was wrong, his mother's character, he had seen it before when he returned in Xia Tian.

Liu Mang's complaint was beyond his expectation, Alexia was actually very happy when he heard this complaint: "Really? Is it similar?"

"..."

"..."

……

Liu Mang was carrying a backpack and dragging a big suitcase and drove to the airport first. Now Liu Mang’s villa, Dinah’s school, and Phillips Arena, the three places are basically a triangle with similar distances from each other, so in addition to picking them up to watch the game, Alexia drove Dinah to school by herself in the morning.

After Liu Mang left, Dinah, who had finished her breakfast, came to Alexia's side.

"Teacher, you have been very kind to uncle recently!" Dinah said sourly.

"Have you? Haven't I always been nice to your uncle?" Alexia smiled, "Have you finished your breakfast? Go and change, we're going to school."

"No, no, teacher, you have been very nice to uncle recently..."

……

……

New Orleans, very close to Atlanta, is the easternmost team in the Southwest Division. For the time being, it is still playing the Eastern Conference schedule, because the Eastern Conference has already put on the schedule. Mr. Joe, who was kicked out by the Wizards, is unwilling to build a team by himself to dominate the NBA again. However, he does not have that much money. A local tyrant with a "membership fee" of 1.5 million US dollars.

The establishment of an NBA team in Charlotte was promised by the league when the Hornets moved out of Charlotte. The Hornets still play the schedule of the teams in the Southeast Division. It is also for this reason that they have to wait for another team to make up for the impact of their move.

At eleven o'clock in the morning, the Eagles arrived at the Royal Sonesta Beach Hotel in New Orleans. The coaching staff let the players rest by themselves. Liu Mang happily took Boozer, Kwame Brown and Jason Terry to lunch.

As for other teammates, there are restaurants they want to go to or people who have a good relationship with the Hornets have made an appointment to get together before the game.

Liu Mang asked the lady at the front desk to send a chartered car from the car rental company that the hotel cooperates with.

After getting in the car, the driver asked where Liu Mang and the others were going. Jason Terry was also very curious. Liu Mang was so excited today where he wanted to take them to eat. He asked, "Ace, where are you going to invite us to eat today?"

"Oh, Jason, when you come to New Orleans, of course you have to eat the famous New Orleans grilled wings! I wanted to eat it the last time we came, but it was raining the last two times we came here, and the weather is rare today, so let's try the local food here!" Liu Mang wanted to taste the fast food that the Zen master's grandfather was the image spokesperson when he was extravagant in his previous life.

The main reason is that he is now endorsing McDonald's, and he has no chance to eat KFC anymore.

"New Orleans grilled wings?" Not only Jason Terry, but also the driver, Kwame Brown and Boozer all asked in confusion.

New Orleans is a well-known tourist city in the United States, a very famous one. Before the hurricane, the tourism industry here is no worse than that of Miami. It is the most economically developed city in Louisiana, and its per capita income ranks in the forefront of all cities in the United States.

New Orleans' seafood dishes are also famous throughout the United States, but none of them have heard of New Orleans grilled wings.

"Yes, brother, take us to your most famous grilled wings shop!" Liu Mang said to the driver.

"...Sir, I have lived here for more than 30 years, and I have never heard of a famous chicken wing shop..." The driver said weakly, seeing Liu Mang's excitement, he couldn't bear to be shocked.

"..." Liu Mang's head was powered off for a few seconds, "How is it possible! Your chicken wings are so famous... Really?"

Seeing several people shaking their heads resolutely, Liu Mang seemed to have suffered a critical blow.

"Then what is your most famous thing!" Liu Mang asked unwillingly, what if the name of that thing is different between China and the United States!

"The most famous thing here is crayfish!" The driver finally corrected him.

"So you call it chicken wings and crayfish here! Let's go, take us there." Liu Mang waved his hand and asked the driver to drive.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The other four people in the car were speechless...

……

……

On November 11, the Eagles played the first back-to-back game against the Hornets away.

Liu Mang came to the New Orleans Arena today with anger. He didn't expect that New Orleans really didn't have grilled wings. Although eating crayfish was delicious, and the taste was more in line with Chinese tastes, Liu Mang was still very angry. In a city as big as New Orleans, there is not even a store that sells New Orleans grilled wings!
Blame it all on the Hornets!So Liu Mang is going to spread his anger on the Hornets.

This is Liu Mang's excuse for telling his teammates that he has a lot of fighting spirit. Liu Mang's high fighting spirit is entirely because of the Hornets' best player-Baron Davis.

Ability value is 87, offense is 91, defense is 85, three-pointer is 70, mid-range shooting is 75, layup is 89, passing is 90...

Liu Mang is always so excited when facing strong players in the same position!

After the players from both sides entered the field, the Hornets players felt the strong fighting spirit of the Eagles!Especially Liu Mang, who has been staring at Baron Davis.

Baron Davis was puzzled, when did he provoke that guy?

But doubts turned into doubts, Baron Davis glared back at Liu Mang without hesitation. The Hornets have introduced many high-quality substitutes this year while retaining the core lineup, such as Darrell Armstrong, Steve Smith and others. The Hornets are going to do big things this year!
Jamal Mashben played the best performance of his career last season and also played a full-time season. He only turned 31 at the end of this month and is at his peak. He still maintained an average of 22 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in the first few games.

Jamal Magloire, a big center in the class of 2000, has grown up in the past two years. After averaging 10+8 per game last season, he averaged 14 points and 11 rebounds per game in the first few games of this year.

Coupled with the addition of Baron Davis, a 24-year-old Mesozoic point guard who averaged 23 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists per game, PJ Brown, a not-so-top but active insider, and David Wesley, a short, fast offensive scorer, the Hornets have a strong starting lineup.

Add to that the sums spent over the summer on Steve Smith from the Spurs and Darrell Armstrong from the Magic, and there's no reason the Hornets wouldn't want to do big things.

This year, the Hornets won 4 consecutive victories at the beginning, tied with the Pacers for the first place in the Eastern Conference, and beat the Eagles with three consecutive victories.

Therefore, this year's Hornets players have confidence, relying on their own strength to win the confidence, and are not afraid of the Eagles at all.

The Hawks attach great importance to this game. The Hornets may be the key opponents to compete with them for the top spot in the Southeast Division. Last year, they bucked the trend and got the fourth place in the Eastern Conference despite so many injuries. The Hawks have to pay attention to this year's start.

With the end of the pre-match activities and the two teams starting their debut, a war between the representatives of the new generation of point guards and the representatives of the Mesozoic point guards triggered by a chicken wing is about to begin...
