From today on is the king

Chapter 597 596. These People Are Demons!

"LeBron, Kang is busy, let me introduce you, Ira, you also come here, this is Jason, Sharif, Carlos and Matt, you have met before at McDonald's All-Stars, this is Rasheed..." Liu Mang introduced his teammates to James very enthusiastically, and at the same time introduced some teammates who joined after Newbell left to Newbell. The classmates who just entered the NBA, especially those teammates who have been in the Eagles for the past two years, have maintained a good relationship between Liu Mang and them.

The Eagles players also warmly greeted James and welcomed Newbell back to the Phillips Arena.

The fans also cheered for Newbell. The fans still remember the contribution of this cool little brother to the team. As for how long they can remember, it is definitely impossible for a role player, but at least for now, Newbell is still a player that Atlanta fans like very much.

Seeing the enthusiasm of the Eagles players, James was a little flattered!

He didn't expect the Eagles players to be so friendly!
After the league vigorously promoted this game in the past few days, especially yesterday, after the NBA official website published a promotion similar to the Magic Birds, which roughly means "the enemy of life", James received a call from his exclusive team in the agency company, telling him that he was probably elected by the NBA to replace Kobe as the new generation of star star that the NBA strongly advocates.

This was a dream for James, and he screamed with excitement.

But after being excited, with James' super high EQ, he quickly understood that his situation was not as good as he imagined. First of all, he was still a rookie and the team was weak. Originally, because of his 9000 million endorsement contract, he made many veterans who entered the league in the 90s and are now ruling the league unhappy. Now this situation will become a thorn in their side.

And the next opponent, the Eagles, happens to have another Chinese star whom the league touts as the face.

James may understand the importance of the Chinese market better than 90.00% of the current NBA players. He knows very well that when the NBA has a Chinese player who can be used as a facade to train, it is bound to praise this player, and this player is Liu Mang, which is his next opponent.

Liu Mang was originally the unique leader of the younger generation, but now James has become the role to compete with him for the leader of the younger generation.

James is well aware of the discomfort of having something that should belong to him be taken away or possibly taken away. He was already prepared, ready to face the Hawks' vicious and hostile targeting.

After arriving at the Phillips Arena, when the Cavaliers players, especially James, were booed all over the scene, Eagles fans were also worried that Liu Mang's No.1 position of the younger generation would be replaced. At the same time, the league was angry that a rookie was compared to Liu Mang.

However, when players from both teams entered the court, things changed so that James forgot to maintain his "mature". Seeing Liu Mang enthusiastically introducing his teammates to himself, the Eagles seniors who had been in the limelight for the past two years were also very enthusiastic and caring for him.

After some friendly exchanges before the game, James returned to his home halftime to prepare for the game. He felt that the world was not as dangerous as he imagined!People are still very friendly drops!The Eagles are all good people!
Especially Ace Liu, James wondered if he had misunderstood this senior before, maybe he looked up and down with that kind of eyes, but he was not used to it yet.

……

The final pre-match warm-up is over, and the Eagles' home game against the Cavaliers is about to begin!

The first two teams came to the court, and James was very curious to see the Eagles' easy and happy opening action. He thought it was so handsome, and he wanted to go back and think about an opening action.

When James looked at Raheem, who was sprinkled with magnesium powder, Raheem turned his head and gave him a warm smile. Similarly, Prince, Ratliff, and Liu Mang, who was hugging Boozer, all gave James a warm smile.

Once again, James felt that there is true affection, true love, and warmth in the world.

Finally James' eyes fell on Rasheed Wallace as he walked to the camera next to the hoop.

The lights on the scene dimmed, and James subconsciously put his gaze on the big screen above the court. Rasheed Wallace's face, which made James feel a little scary, appeared on the screen with his eyes closed.

When Rasheed Wallace opened his eyes angrily, James felt that the person Rasheed Wallace was staring at was himself, and his heart suddenly jumped.

Then when Rasheed Wallace roared through the audience, and then the fans immediately fell into a state of frenzy, the overwhelming cheers, James instantly felt that everything he felt seemed to have changed suddenly!The atmosphere at the scene made him feel terrible!
The lights came on, and when James looked at the five starters of the Eagles again, he found that all five of the Eagles looked like irritated lions!
But then the referee whistled to indicate that the game was about to start. James blinked and saw Liu Mang coming up to greet the players on his side with high fives. He no longer had the feeling of being stared at by hunters. James wondered if he was too neurotic. The Eagles are all good people!

The referee signaled that the starting lineup of the two teams came to the middle of the court. The five starting lineups of the Eagles have been fixed this season. The Cavaliers sent James, Jeff McGinnis, Ira Newbell, Darius Miles, and Big Z to the starting lineup.

Ricky Davis was dissatisfied with James that a rookie had more ball possessions than him a while ago, and has been sent to the bench.

In his rookie season, James was not good at shooting and off the ball, so he played the point guard position. He is still thin, his dribbling is not affected, and his speed is comparable to the top point guards in the league.

Rasheed Wallace and Big Z came to the middle circle for a jump ball. James was waiting for the jump ball at the top arc of his own three-point line, and suddenly saw Rasheed Wallace seeming to grin at himself.

That smile made James feel terrified!
James rubbed his eyes and saw Rasheed Wallace intently staring at the ball in the referee's hand, thinking that he might be delusional!
The referee whistled and threw the ball into the air. Rasheed Wallace jumped up vigorously, but he still lost. Big Z easily won the jump ball by relying on his absolute height and wingspan.

James took two steps back, watched the ball fly by, and reached out to catch it.

The moment James just caught the ball, he was about to slap it on the ground. Suddenly, a lightning-like figure appeared in front of him.
James looked back, and the guy with the big number 1 on his back rushed into his own lane and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands!
Ace Liu!
The sound waves that fell from the scene because of the loss of the jump ball became frenzied again, and the live DJ released very rhythmic music.

After watching Liu Mang's dunk land, James turned around and twisted his body a few times along with the music, and then put his hands behind his ears. The cheers at the scene almost pierced the ceiling.

However, James' first reaction was that he was too careless, and Liu Mang was an extremely arrogant person on the court. This is recognized by the league. James had heard of it when he was still in high school.

James took a deep breath, came to the bottom line to receive the serve, and the cautious dribbled to the frontcourt.

James advanced beyond the three-point line and saw Prince defending him. James wanted to use his body to force Prince.

The reason why James entered the NBA and was regarded by the league as the face of the future within a few games is because of his physical advantage!
Generally speaking, unless they are mature college graduates like Duncan and Brand, freshmen and sophomores, let alone middle school rookies, even if they crushed everything in college and high school before, when they first entered the NBA, they can no longer rely on the same style of play as before to gain a foothold in the NBA.

But James is different. After he entered the NBA, he is still one of the players with the strongest confrontation at the point guard position. Except for Baron Davis and Francis, it is hard to say that there are point guards in the league who are more capable of confrontation than James!

James has no outside shooting ability, so the only option to get the ball is to rush inside to cause damage or split the ball.

Just when James was about to start speeding up, Prince posted it ahead of time and directly stood up to James!
Before James could react, Liu Mang rushed over from McGinnis. James quickly hugged the ball and was about to pass it to his teammates, but Prince had quick eyesight and quick hands.
When Liu Mang launched a counterattack, James was in front of Liu Mang. After Liu Mang crossed the line parallel to the bottom line where James was, his already fast speed immediately skyrocketed.
James's speed of 91 is already very fast, as fast as the little Jason Terry, but Liu Mang's speed of 94, who already had 5 and triggered the solo riding +99, suddenly opened up a large distance. When James rushed to the center line, Liu Mang had already stepped into the three-point line!

"Trigger level 5 for solo riding. After getting rid of all the chasing defenses in front, this fast break jump +8, fancy dunk level 3 trigger, Zach LaVine dunk bag is fully unlocked, action judgment, one step inside the free throw line..."

James stopped chasing after crossing the center line. Watching Liu Mang rush into the free throw line, grab the ball and take off in one step. While turning 180 degrees in the air, he handed the ball from behind to his left hand, scooped the ball from bottom to top with his left hand, and put the ball into the basket with one-handed back dunk!

The feeling that he didn't seem to do his best to dunk the ball into the basket easily made James, a possibly unique physical man in history, feel too exaggerated!
The cheers of the fans at the scene made James feel a kind of uneasiness from the bottom of his heart.

What made James feel the most panicked was that he had studied the Eagles' style of play before, and their defense was not like this!

James made two turnovers in a row!
However, the head coach of the Cavaliers, Paul Silas, continued to signal James to control the ball. James is the absolute core of the future. No matter how badly he plays, he must be given the ball and encouragement.

Seeing Liu Mang run back home and give Prince a high-five to celebrate, James suppressed his uneasiness and advanced to the frontcourt after receiving the serve.

James is going to hit one!
It's too embarrassing to make two consecutive turnovers. He wants to hit the basket and save face!
Facing James who charged straight up, Prince didn't stop him at once, and he didn't want to be knocked over by James' strong body that looked like a bull to make an offensive foul. When James rushed past him, Prince immediately stuck up to delay James' impact.

But James can't control that much now, holding the ball and continuing to hit the basket like holding a dynamite bag. He is confident that the opponent's big center is not so fast and can't block himself. James rushed into the three-second zone!

It’s true that Ratliff is not fast enough. I didn’t expect James to speed up and rush into the inside line so directly, because the sprint distance of a person’s explosive speed is always limited. If you start from the three-point line, you can sprint to the basket at full speed. Out of the hit zone!
Ratliff can't block it, but it's okay to block it.

There is only one thought in James' head now, which is to rush to the basket to save face, and make an emergency stop in front of Ratliff!This distance has reached the area of ​​​​his layup, Rasheed - Wallace flew over, James changed the ball from his right hand to his left hand, he is left-handed!Both left and right handed layups will do!

Quite elegant and unrestrained layup with changing hands and levers!

Just when James beautifully changed the lever to attack the defensive levers of Prince, Ratliff, and Rasheed Wallace and just threw the ball out of space, the fourth person came!

Liu Mang slapped the ball thrown by James, and the ball hit James' arm and bounced out of bounds!

Liu Mang's cover!
One steal, one block, two counter-attack dunks at the beginning!
James took several steps back after falling to the ground because of the physical confrontation with Ratliff. After being teased again, James regained consciousness.

Seeing the five people on the other side clapping their hands in celebration, with playful expressions on their faces, James finally understood that the "illusions" just now were not illusions!

These people are not good people, they are all demons!
