From today on is the king

Chapter 827 826. Obscene Development
The influence of the Auburn Hills Palace incident was beyond Liu Mang's expectations.

Maybe in the future, Liu Mang knows the results of those people who participated, so it is too common to see this happening now, but at this stage, the players who took the fan ticket money to drive a luxury car and live in a villa beat the fans, and the impact is too bad.

No one dared to say a word for those players who participated in or contributed to this incident during an interview. Liu Mang was the same. He was severely warned by the coaching staff not to talk nonsense. Schwartz also rushed to New Orleans immediately and sternly told Liu Mang not to joke about his future. Levia also called, and even Mr. Joe risked being fined.

It was only then that Liu Mang knew that this was not the kind of joke that would happen when he saw Artest’s whitewashing after the Lakers won the championship in the future. Liu Mang also remembered that even if it was more than ten years later, Artest was whitewashed and Ben Wallace became one of the strongest defensive center candidates in history, and no active player would mention this matter.

This is a kind of political correctness, as well as commercial correctness. No matter who is playing fans in the stadium, it is wrong for the players to strike first, because they paid for it.

Players can fight with fans off the field, but inside the field, no matter the reason, it is a mistake!People pay to watch the games

Even if NBA officials can ban the nine fans who participated in the centralized brawl and the four fans who beat Fred Jones from entering any NBA-related games for life, the players are wrong.

Other fans have no objection to banning these fans from going to the game. They are also afraid that these people will provoke troubles and implicate themselves, but they are even more afraid of players hitting them. Fighting is not a joke for these big guys weighing hundreds of kilograms.

Theoretically speaking, the fans make mistakes first, but when it comes to commercial issues, the players are the worst.

The media also relies on the fans to make money, so all the media are unanimous in attacking the players who participated in the fights and caused the fights. Most of the athletes in other industries do not speak up, but they also criticize these players, mainly Artest.

……

Liu Mang is not willful this time, just like coach Kruger, boss Price, Stockton, Schwartz, Jordan, Levia and others said, don't make fun of your own future.

McGrady, Rasheed Wallace, Kevin Willis and others have also been telling their teammates not to talk too much, and Liu Mang will not make trouble with money.

Anyway, the team's current goal is to develop insignificantly and improve the new tactical system, so Liu Mang also shut up.

It is okay to be in the limelight at any time, there is no need to come out to grab the limelight at this time.

However, abuse is the last one, this matter can't be forgotten.

The last time he lost to the bobcats, which was the bottom one at that time, he was so embarrassing. Boss Qiao laughed at him for a long time, but this time against the Hornets, Liu Mang was very excited.

The Hornets suddenly collapsed this season. Looking at the data, 5 players averaged double figures per game, and 7 players averaged more than 8 points per game. Looking at it again...the average score of 88 points per game is the lowest in the league...the average loss of 103 points per game is the second lowest in the league, only less than the average loss of the Suns.

It's just that Jamal Mashburn retired, and the Hornets won't even play the game.

In this regard, Liu Mang sighed that the core of a team is really important!

Putting ability aside, Liu Mang feels that the Hornets are like the Cavaliers without LeBron James, they can't play at all, and they are directly at the bottom.

Moreover, the Hornets are far inferior to the Bobcats. The Bobcats' Brevin Knight, Gerald Wallace, and Okafor are all the backbone, while the Hornets don't even have a player as the backbone. Baron Davis led the team for the first time in a true sense, and the whole line collapsed. He used to be the younger brother next to Jamal Mashburn. .

The outbreak of the Bobcats has not been seen in the Hornets. The Eagles have carried out an experimental style of McGrady as the core of the ball and a large-scale rotation of scorers, just like playing in the preseason.

The Eagles continue to experiment with new tactics, not only to find problems, but also to study the reasons why they perform well in games and why they perform well, and researching this is also part of the tactical experiment.

Use more reasons for good performance, and avoid poor performance. Experimental tactics are for this. At this stage, you can’t just use the reasons for good performance, but find more reasons for poor performance and find more ways to perform well.

Liu Mang played 3 minutes in the first quarter, 6 minutes in the second quarter, and 9 minutes in the third quarter. He scored 18 points in a total of 20 minutes. He was replaced when he reached 20 points.

11投6中三分7中3罚球5中5拿到20分4板2助攻2失误，刘莽看着自己的数据，早知道就不传球了，传球还失误了两次，想玩玩花式传球，结果跳起来把队友都骗到了。

Aerial magician level 4, Liu Wei doesn't even know what to say about this skill, it's only useful if his teammates have a lot of ideas.

Due to constant substitutions, the Eagles’ offensive efficiency cannot continue forever. Except for Liu Mang and McGrady who seem to have such a tacit understanding when they partner together like OK, Kega, Zhan Wei, and Qiaopi, the tacit understanding of the others still needs to be gradually adjusted.

The most important thing, and what bothered Coach Kruger the most, was that Liu Mang went up alone, holding the ball and just doing it... For Liu Mang, who regarded himself as a pure scorer like Jordan for the next three consecutive games, it was indeed very good for the tactics when the main lineup was neat, but McGrady's physical strength was not as good as Pippen, which became a problem.

However, coach Kruger can't let Liu Mang participate in the offense more, because Liu Mang regards himself as the team's puzzle, which is not an easy task. If Jordan is not old in the last three consecutive years, he would not be willing to give up the ball as an offensive puzzle.

There is still a big difference between ball rights and shot rights.

As for Liu Mang, it’s not that he’s selfless, but he likes to score at this stage, and he still has the task of winning the scoring championship. Kobe’s physical condition is not right this season. Iverson went to play pass and cut with Webber.

In the original time and space, Kobe averaged 35 points per game. It is obvious that it is not that he can only score 35 points, and that he averaged 40+ per game in a single month is not once or twice. With the strength of the Lakers further declining, if someone competes with him for the scoring title, he probably can do anything.

Moreover, the team still has Iguodala and Calderon, so Liu Mang doesn't need to worry so much. Cultivating the passing of the two of them will also make McGrady easier.

The most important thing is that Liu Mang looked at McGrady as if he enjoyed doing so many things, so Liu Mang devoted himself to scoring with more confidence.

In the game against the Hornets, Liu Mang's 20 points was already the highest for the Hawks. McGrady scored 37 points, 13 assists, 8 rebounds and 5 turnovers in 4 minutes. The Hawks scored only 93 points. The Hornets were even worse.

The Eagles easily won 5 consecutive victories, and their record improved to 12 wins and 2 losses.

……

After defeating the Hornets, the Eagles then went to Philadelphia to challenge the 76ers.

In the middle of the season, Iverson was as ruthless as Kobe, and he didn't bother Liu Mang.

However, the 76ers are still in the running-in period. Originally, Iverson brought John Samuels, this year's No. 8 pick Josh Childress, Kenny Thomas, Dalem Porter, and backup center Mark Jackson and Aaron McGee, Josh Davis and other substitutes, playing brilliantly.

Iverson is willing to pass the ball. Of course, he is still the first in scoring, but he is willing to pass the ball after attracting the defense. Josh Childress, who is already excellent in combat ability, averaged 14 points and 7 rebounds per game.

Now comes Webber. Of course, Webber's replacement of Kenny Thomas must greatly improve the strength of the lineup, and it is almost equivalent to a single replacement. The 76ers have no loss, only become stronger.

But this will still break the good chemical reaction of the 76ers and need to be re-run.

The 76ers, on the other hand, do not have the overall talent of the Hawks. They have had trouble playing in the last few games. Fortunately, after Iverson has tasted the pain of not having a helper, he is now willing to slowly run in with Webber. The 76ers seem to have a good future.

Playing against the 76ers didn't cause the Eagles much trouble. They were all running in. The Hawks were already stronger, and now they are getting better and better. The 76ers are still struggling with Webber and Iverson's running-in.

刘莽首节打了7分钟，第二节打了9分钟，第三节打满，第四节打了6分钟，全场出战34分钟，24投11中三分10中4，罚球7中6拿到32分6篮板6助攻，麦迪拿到16分9助攻，老鹰队轻松以109比100击败76人拿到六连胜。

The 76ers scored more than 30 points. Basically, Iverson dared to fight and fight hard in garbage time to force the score to [-] points before breaking the [-] points

……

After 15 games, Liu Mang's scoring average has stabilized at around 32 points. He has played 15 games in his current position. It seems that there is no difference in scoring from last season, with an average of 32.2 points per game. The only change is that rebounds and assists seem to be reversed from last season's rebounds and assists data, averaging 6.4 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game.

Mainly improve the hit rate!

When Tracy McGrady came to the Eagles, Liu Mang's shooting rate increased significantly. He averaged 22.8 shots and 10.8 shots per game, and his shooting rate reached 40.00% [-]!

This is since Michael Jordan in the 96-97 season, among the outside players who averaged more than 20 shots per game, the player with the highest shooting percentage!

In the last season of the last three consecutive seasons of Jordan's 97-98 season, his shooting percentage dropped to 40.00%.

McGrady's average per game is 15.4 points and 11.2 assists. Recently, the team has played faster, but his assists have dropped a little bit compared to before. The main reason is that the team has adjusted the lineup in the last two games, which has affected his most familiar style of play. After the tactics are determined later, his assists may increase.

But the general data, after playing 15 games, that is, almost a month after the game, not only Liu Mang and McGrady, but also the data of other teams have also stabilized theoretically.

Liu Mang is the only one who averages more than 30 points per game in the league. Kobe averages 29.6 points per game, Iverson averages 28.5 points per game, James averages 27.9 points per game, Nowitzki, Stoudemire, Arenas, Carter, Richard Jefferson, these five players also averaged 25 points per game, but the gap with the top few is still a bit big.

Comparing last season and this season, it’s completely the same in two worlds of basketball. So far this season, the average number of 25+ players per game is more than three times that of last season, and the number of players averaging 3 points per game has also doubled. So far, the only team with an average score of less than 20 points per game is the Hornets. So far, there are nine teams with more than 90 points.

However, the astonishing changes in the league this season are not worth it after the Palace of Auburn Hills incident. Fans are waiting for the court ruling and the final punishment of the league to be attractive.

Not only did the Eagles get the opportunity to develop insignificantly, but the Suns also lost a lot of targeted attention. Both offensive teams are developing insignificantly.

……

"I'm going to play against the Pistons, I'm a little scared!" Liu Mang laughed while looking at the clouds outside the window.

"I heard that at nine o'clock, the verdict will come out. It is estimated that the league will determine the final penalty today. The management of the Pistons and the Pacers are appealing. I think it will definitely reduce the suspension." McGrady still knows the league's operation of lifting the hammer high and gently putting it down, and sighed: "But Ron may be miserable."

"He has a very violent temper. He played so well before renewing his contract in the middle class. This is not necessarily a bad thing for him." Liu Mang thought for a while and said.

The relationship between McGrady and Artest is actually quite good. The two met in the 1997 McDonald's All-Star Game. At that time, there was Lamar Odom. The three were the strongest high school students among them.

Of course, their choices were much worse. McGrady entered the NBA early to make money, and Artest and Odom entered college. At that time, people thought that McGrady was the wrong one.

The three of them don’t have much contact now. This doesn’t mean that their relationship has deteriorated. This is a characteristic of European and American countries. It’s normal for them not to contact each other when they don’t see each other. This happens in many American dramas and movies. A pair of old friends have a very good relationship, but it’s common for them not to see each other for more than ten years, especially for these players born in the 70s, when mobile phones were a luxury.

Upon hearing Liu Mang's words, McGrady smiled and did not continue the discussion on this issue.

The Eagles are on a plane flying to Detroit. They will rest overnight in Detroit tonight, and tomorrow they will start competing for the number one spot in the Eastern Conference.

Before the fight between the Pistons and the Pacers, the Pacers had already led by almost 20 points. The game ended directly and the Pacers were judged to win. At that time, the Pistons' record became 11 wins and 2 losses.

The Eagles went to Detroit this time to regain the number one in the league!

Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation ticket!
