From today on is the king

Chapter 807 806. Being Treated as a Persimmon
"Tracey, you are too serious!" Liu Mang complained helplessly, after training and extra practice, this guy actually wants to stay in the arena to watch the video!

"The opponent is a strong team in the Western Conference. Of course we have to be serious, and we can't be careless like losing to the Bobcats." McGrady was watching the Nuggets game clip seriously.

Liu Mang felt weird watching McGrady become more and more serious in every game.

Does this guy have some misunderstanding about the strong team?
What kind of strong team is the Nuggets!
"Uh..." Liu Mang suddenly thought that McGrady had never made it to the second round before, probably for McGrady, the playoff teams are all strong teams.

Poor big cousin...

Liu Mang felt sorry for McGrady for a second, and then immediately became happier.

With such a superstar so serious, wouldn't it be easier for the young master?
Thinking of this, Liu Mang felt that the big cousin's misunderstanding of the strong team seemed to be a good thing.

"Dinna, uncle will pick you up from school right away, soon, see you in half an hour..."

Liu Mang called little Lolita, and made an appointment today to take little Lolita to go shopping and buy clothes after the extra training in the afternoon.

Little Lolita has been growing up a bit lately, Liu Mang estimates that Little Lolita will keep growing taller in the next three to four years, it's really a heart-wrenching thing...

The little loli will be ten years old in one month. Girls are born earlier than boys, that is, they will soon grow into young girls. Liu Mang seems to see that the life of eating, sleeping and abusing loli is gone forever...

……

……

Social Melon!
He offended the boss of the league president in his rookie season.

In two hours, Liu Mang will play against the Nuggets led by Social Gua.

Although the Eagles' arrogance gradually became stronger after winning the championship, they still have to be cautious with McGrady.

The Nuggets' interior is too strong. The interior trio of Kenyon Martin, Marcus Camby, and Nene formed in the second half of last season, after half a season of running-in and the improvement of young people in the summer, this year started with the strongest interior defense in the league.

The three insiders are all players who can serve as the core of a team, and they are all defensive. The key is not lack of offensive ability. Of course, they are talking about eating cakes and second offenses. All three are very good. Under the leadership of Andre Miller, who has the assist level, Kenyon Martin, Camby, and Nene averaged 41 points and 25 rebounds per game during the beginning of this season, which is too strong!

But relatively speaking, Anthony will always be the guy who can't integrate into the tactics. With the ball, he is single-play shooting, single-play passing, and single-play offensive rebounds...

But with a one-year adaptation period, and the head coach of the Nuggets was replaced by George Karl, who likes this type of singles player, the Nuggets started this year very well, with a record of 4 wins and 2 losses not much worse than the Eagles.

After Anthony finished his rookie season, he was full of energy. Together with Wade, he became the spokesperson of Air Jordan. The first generation of boots will be released before December, and this year's All-Star Weekend will be held in Denver.

Anthony has played a lot of domineering games this year, directly as the team leader and the last player to play. Last season, he also left the boss position to Andre Miller.

After Liu Mang entered the arena, he saw Prince's eagerness to try, and expressed his most sincere concerns to Anthony, who was now in high spirits...

But the inside line is a big problem, and the burden has to be handed over to Kwame Brown.

And what Liu Mang has to do is to score!
……

At 06:30, the game is about to start.

Following Rasheed Wallace's roar, Liu Mang threw chalk into the air, and the two teams started.

The Eagles are still Liu Mang, McGrady, Prince, Rasheed Wallace, and Kwame Brown.

The Eagles' starting lineup is too stable, with few injuries, unlike many teams with constant minor injuries, and major injuries are also common.

Unless the major injuries are accidents, most of them are small injuries that accumulate slowly. With Liu Mang on the Eagles, he can just use the injury potion for minor injuries, avoiding the situation where minor injuries accumulate into major injuries.

As for the absence of unexpected serious injuries, it is because the Eagles are cautious and lucky.

For the Nuggets, although the three insiders are powerful, they are all famous for their injuries. Kenyon Martin is injured for more than ten or twenty games every year. The same is true for Nene. Not to mention Camby, he has been reimbursed several times.

However, at the beginning of this year, all three were healthy and played super strength.

The Nuggets sent Andre - Miller, Greg - Buckner, Anthony, Kenyon - Martin, Camby starting combination.

Liu Mang looked at the ability evaluation of the Nuggets.

Andre Miller, ability evaluation 86, offense 88, defense 79, passing 90, three-pointer 62, mid-range shooting 89, layup 90, speed 85, strength 90.
Greg Bagner, ability evaluation 67, offense 75, defense 58, three-pointer 83, mid-range shooting 62, layup 71, speed 89, strength 75...

Carmelo Anthony, ability evaluation 87, offense 92, defense 77, three-pointer 79, mid-range shooting 83, layup 89, speed 90, strength 89...

Kenyon Martin, ability rating 84, offense 75, defense 90, speed 82, strength 93...

Marcus Camby, ability evaluation 83, offense 69, defense 94, three-pointer 40, mid-range shot 50, layup 85, speed 79, strength 95...

Nene in the substitute lineup has an ability rating of 79, an offense of 77, and a defense of 85...

Except for Bagna, the Nuggets' starters are all first-class stars in terms of function. Even Kenyon Martin and Camby, who are hindered by the offense, are solid and fast defensive types.

Anthony has the same impression as Liu Mang, he knows everything and has good talent. He is almost proficient in everything.

In terms of talent alone, if it weren't for the poor shooting guard, the Nuggets would be considered the only team in the Western Conference in terms of talent. They couldn't find a team with better talent, but they just couldn't achieve results.

Another jump ball matchup between the two top picks, Kwame Brown and Kenyon Martin came to the middle circle to jump ball.

The referee blew the whistle to start the game, and Kwame Brown took a deep breath. When the ball thrown by the referee reached its highest point, Kwame Brown bounced up and pushed the ball back!
Just as Liu Mang received the ball and was about to break fast, the Nuggets retreated like a tide.

The speed is really fast!

In addition to the two tags of inside and Anthony, the Nuggets also have a nickname called the Plateau Track and Field Team, which is good at defensive counterattacks.

Their lineup has great physical talent, and it will continue to be good for a long time, because their management's operational ability is quite good. Although it has nothing to do with the championship, and they rarely even pass the first round, their operations have always been very good, and they will always maintain a group of excellent role player lineups.

The only disadvantage is that during the draft, they often miss the most suitable rookies and miss the most suitable core.

The opening fast break failed, and Liu Mang dribbled the ball and ran forward.

As soon as he reached the frontcourt, Liu Mang threw the ball to McGrady who ran over a step later.

Liu Mang's choice was obviously beyond the expectations of the Nuggets. Bagner hurriedly defended, but McGrady received the ball half a step outside the three-point line. After taking a look at Bagna, he didn't care how the opponent tried to defend, and directly pulled up a three-point shot!

Bagna's 1.9-meter-three height jumps only enough to get McGrady's elbow, and McGrady hits a three-pointer with ease.

The biggest problem with the Nuggets running fast is their lineup. Except for Anthony and Camby, the height of the other three positions is lower than the average height of the league. From the perspective of standard height, the point guard is 1.9 meters to 1.9 meters one, the shooting guard is 1.9 meters five to 1.9 meters six, the small forward is 1.9 meters eight to two meters one, the power forward is two meters one one to two meters one one, and the center is two meters one one to two meters one three.

The Nuggets' Andre Miller is only 1.8m1.9, Bagna is [-]m[-], and Kenyon Martin is [-]m.

McGrady, who is [-] meters tall, shoots over Bagna's head. Whether he can make it or not depends on how good the hand feels, and Bagna's interference can't do it.

Liu Mang thought that McGrady would wait to organize the attack, but he threw it away. The offensive and defensive teams have not settled down yet!

The key is that the goal was scored!

Added an assist directly!
McGrady didn't watch so many videos in vain, and he used whatever style of play when he met any opponent. He was more and more like Atlanta's demeanor of playing a few teams.

Liu Mang retreated happily, playing with McGrady is easy!Easily get assists, shoot and catch the ball with ease.

The key is to defend. With McGrady and Prince, two players who can defend the opponent's sharp knives on the outside, Liu Mang only needs to help defend the breakthrough from the line!
Liu Mang happily waited for Andre Miller to advance, and waited for Andre Miller to pass the ball to Anthony, and he could easily "stand by" on his own.

"What is this guy going to do?" Liu Mang saw Andre Miller pass the ball to Bagna at halftime, and then ran to the inside by himself, Liu Mang quickly followed.

"Damn!" Liu Mang followed Andre Miller to the low position, seeing Andre Miller's movements, he was in a bad mood!
Andre Miller relied on Liu Mang for the ball!

"Hey, big brother, we have something to talk about..."

Before Liu Mang could finish his sentence, Bagner handed the ball to Andre Miller, and Andre Miller threw his ass towards Liu Mang.

Liu Mang tried hard to hit the floor with his iron feet, but it didn't work!

Pushed into the three-second zone by Andre Miller's big butt's 90% strength, Liu Mang couldn't hold it back!

Andre Miller turned over and hit the board with a jumper!

"Damn! I've become a persimmon!" Liu Mang immediately understood this when he saw the Nuggets retreating quickly!
The Nuggets obviously have studied the Eagles, knowing that Liu Mang is the worst in terms of overall defensive effect on the Eagles side!

Liu Mang may be the best at defending against breakthroughs, but Liu Mang's height does not have an obvious advantage in defending against low positions. The five centimeter height gap can still be made up by technology, but Liu Mang is not as effective as McGrady and Prince when it comes to carrying the opponent's back.

Liu Mang felt that his defense was being contemptuous!
After receiving the ball from Kwame Brown, Liu Mang advanced quickly.

McGrady still wanted to catch the ball, but when he saw a certain guy who seemed to be stimulated, he ran to the frontcourt helplessly...I'll go!Why is the ball coming again!

When the Nuggets saw Liu Mang rushing forward regardless, Andre Miller and Kenyon Martin under the basket were secretly delighted, this guy really caught him!They have prepared an impregnable defense and waited for Liu Mang. Seeing Liu Mang rushing into the three-point line, Andre Miller, Anthony, blocked Liu Mang's sides, and Kenyon Martin rushed forward to block or surround Liu Mang.

However, just as Liu Mang entered the double-teaming circle, before he was surrounded, he threw the ball towards the top arc!
Bagna was ready to fight back. Seeing McGrady receiving the ball, he didn't know whether to say XXX or not!
McGrady didn't expect to receive the ball, he was ready to rush in and Liu Mang hit the iron and rushed to grab the offensive rebound. It seemed that Liu Mang's expression was about to start a one-to-nine stance.

Fortunately, McGrady also has the wave ratio attribute. After receiving the ball, he was stunned for half a second and his body involuntarily pulled up a three-pointer!

Still in!

McGrady scored two three-pointers at the start!

Seeing McGrady making the shot, Liu Mang stretched out his left index finger at Andre Miller, pulled his left eyelid and stuck out his tongue while retreating.

Young Master is a point guard!It's not Karen Mok's kind of big-ass guy who only knows how to spank his back, Liu Mang retreats back to defense.

Mai Di looked at Liu Mang like that, and broke into a drop of cold sweat: Thanks to my mother, I was prepared for all kinds of emergencies, knowing that this guy can't be deduced according to common sense!

It was time for the Nuggets to attack again, and Liu Mang continued to single-handedly defend Andre Miller.

It’s not that they don’t want McGrady to defend. After all, the Nuggets have a shooting guard who can only shoot three-pointers and counter-attack layups. It’s that Andre Miller and Kenyon Martin’s pick-and-rolls are very powerful, which consumes too much of McGrady’s defense.Didn't you see the two assistant coaches and trainers of Stockton and Malone sitting on the bench of the Eagles? This guy is the most proud disciple of those two guys.

After Andre Miller advanced, he handed the ball to Bagner and continued to go low.

"MMX... Do you really think that the young master is a vegetarian?" Liu Mang became ruthless, and began to block positions with Andre Miller crazily, with iron elbows, waist pushes and so on, trying to consume Andre Miller as much as possible.

Andre Miller was also having a hard time, but he had the advantage in both tonnage and strength. He was a little troublesome, but he still received a pass from Bagner and continued to open low singles.

Liu Mang defended better and more aggressively this time. When he pressed up, he didn't care about Andre Miller's speed, and he hoped that Andre Miller would turn around and enter the basket.

However, Liu Mang did a good job of defending what he could do, and put a lot of pressure on Andre Miller, but he missed people in other positions!

Kenyon Martin went up to help Anthony block Prince, and Rasheed Wallace who defended out couldn't keep up with Anthony, and was cut into the inside by Anthony!
Andre Miller leaned against Liu Mang and watched all his teammates. Although the assist king is the one who can get so many assists, the timing and accuracy of the pass is very good. The ball was sent to Anthony at the first time, and Anthony flew to dunk... Kwame Brown squeezed Camby to force a jump and capped the ball!
Anthony has a strong sense of cap board, grabs the ball and throws it again, and hits a layup!

I know that Anthony plays badly every time, no matter against Tracy McGrady or Prince, especially against Prince. His shooting-oriented style of play is too restrained by Prince.

So George Karl's arrangement is very simple, let Andre Miller sit low, and Anthony goes to cut and attack!

McGrady and Liu Mang's singles cooperation, combined with the Nuggets' low-post support and high-post off-ball pick-and-roll offense, made the game heated up from the very beginning!

There are still two chapters left. Today’s thunderstorm ended after three o’clock in the afternoon. I don’t know if it was a Taoist friend from Qingcheng Mountain who crossed the catastrophe. After the thunderstorm, he had to be busy with work for several hours today. He fought against the landlord all morning. Xiaofeng lost 140 yuan.
