From today on is the king

Chapter 882 881. Real run and bomb!
Liu Mang spread the chalk evenly on his hand, waiting for Kwame Brown and Stoudemire to jump the ball.

Looking at Nash on the other side, Liu Mang had been waiting in front of the technical stage after talking to Stoudemire and Joe Johnson just now, waiting for Rasheed Wallace to pretend to be aggressive, but he didn't wait until Nash came up to apply chalk. I didn't notice this before because it was Raheem who sprinkled chalk, but now Liu Mang noticed.

Nash is the core point guard!What should I do if my hands slip without applying magnesium powder?Kwame Brown's hands are still slippery after applying so much chalk.

Then, Liu Mang saw Nash at the free throw line in the opposite half rubbing his palm on the sole of his shoe...

"..." Liu Mang was stunned. Didn't this guy lick the palm of his hand when he made a free throw?This... is the legendary licking sole?

At this time, the referee blew the whistle to start the game. Liu Mang put aside the unappetizing scene and waited for Kwame Brown to jump the ball.

Kwame Brown and Stoudemire are very excited. Both of them are physically strong insiders. Their right hands are stretched out in front of their faces, their legs are slightly bent, their backs are straight, and their hips are stretched back. They try to make the most perfect jumping posture.

The referee threw the ball into the air, and Kwame Brown and Stoudemire rose up!

A bully is a bully!Kwame Brown is fast enough, but Stoudemire is faster!

Stoudemire dials the ball back!
Liu Mang hurried up to block Stoudemire who was running over, delayed Stoudemire for a while, and then chased towards Quentin Richardson.

Stoudemire originally wanted to go straight to the fast break, but was blocked by Liu Mang. Kwame Brown came up and squeezed with Stoudemire.

However, Liu Mang, who followed the big Q at this time, found that although Nash advanced quickly, he did not directly launch a fast break. Instead, he quickly advanced to the front court and dribbled the ball against Tracy McGrady!
The Eagles are ready to lose the jump ball, and are ready to start a quick rotation defense, but this seems to be expected by Nash!

The ability to read defenses is too strong!

Liu Mang still didn't dare to relax, and continued to follow Big Q.

McGrady is defending Nash at the top arc. Big Q can only be handed over to Liu Mang, who is the most able to run on the Eagles side. Even though Big Q's scoring average is the lowest among the Suns' starters, he is the one who can most disrupt the opponent's defense.
Nash guarded against McGrady's interference dribble at the top arc, waited for his teammates to settle down, and made a gesture. Stoudemire came out to help Nash pick and roll.

McGrady is very focused on the defensive end, ready to squeeze directly to block Nash's pick-and-roll three-pointer at any time, which is one of Nash's offensive killer moves. Kwame Brown followed and was ready to block Nash's breakthrough.
McGrady and Kwame Brown were still waiting for the opponent to pick and roll, and suddenly saw Nash throwing the ball to the inside. At this time, Liu Mang called out "behind", the two turned their heads and saw that it was too late to chase.

Nash passed the ball just right, and Stoudemire only needed to catch the ball with his hands and press it into the basket!
Nash + Stoudemire, this feels like Kobe + Gasol, a natural tacit understanding!
Liu Mang kept looking at Nash when he ran next to the big Q. He didn't have any extra gestures except for the pick-and-roll action, but Stoudemire just knew how to cooperate with Nash!

Liu Mang looked at the timer, no more, no less, exactly 7 seconds!

That's it!

The positional battle actually felt like a fast break!

Liu Mang ran back to the basket to pick up the ball and sent it to McGrady, who advanced to the frontcourt.

After Liu Mang ran to the frontcourt, he didn't need a pick-and-roll. He just slithered away from Nash, who was trying his best to mark him without the ball, and rushed to the inside. McGrady's pass was delivered to Liu Mang the moment Liu Mang left Nash behind him.

When Stoudemire saw Liu Mang rushing in, he didn't care about Kwame Brown behind him rushing towards Liu Mang. Liu Mang stepped on the left edge of the three-second zone and grabbed the ball with his right hand and took off to meet Stoudemire.

On the other side, Kwame Brown, who is looking forward to it, is speechless, and this is not rumored!
Just when Liu Mang dunked Stoudemire and landed excitedly about to throw out some trash talk, Stoudemire had already picked up the ball and crossed the baseline, and sent the ball to Nash, who directly threw the ball forward!

Liu Mang turned his head and saw that the contemporary Jordan, Big Q, and Marion of the Suns had already rushed to the three-point line!McGrady and Prince followed up immediately from the outside line, but they couldn't defend against the second defense and the third defense!McGrady blocked the big Q who received the ball, and Prince also stuck to Marion who was rushing inside, but Joe Johnson was empty. Quentin Richardson turned from the end point to the offensive transition point and threw the ball to Joe Johnson. Joe Johnson caught the ball and made a three-pointer from the corner, hollow in the air!

This season Joe Johnson's three-point shooting percentage is 40.00%, ranking No.0.5 among players who average at least 1 three-pointers per game!The open three-point shooting rate is as high as 60.00%!

On the one hand, Liu Mang was not surprised by this. The Suns' three-point shooting percentage this year is now exactly 40.00%, which is too accurate. The key is that the Suns have just scored a goal, and the opponent has already passed halftime!
In other words, this group of guys, when they were about to take off, they had already gone straight to the fast break!
Don't you worry about passing outside and shooting three-pointers?

This is no longer a bad defense, it's just a way of playing without defense!
Liu Mang felt that his team was already rogue enough. Compared with the Suns, he knew what real rogue was!
Next, the Suns explained to the Eagles what a real wave is. No matter how the Eagles play offensively, they will counterattack as long as the Eagles have a tendency to shoot, and the Eagles can’t do without shooting, because the opponent has no defense at all!

After 4 minutes of playing, the Eagles called a timeout first, 12 to 17, and it was only 4 minutes!The Suns started with 17 points!
Liu Mang's head didn't react a bit, this is different from watching a video, the picture in the video is very different from what he personally experienced this kind of thing!

The Eagles' performance in the fast pace is already very good, but the Eagles' style of play is not running and bombing, but small balls. The essence of small balls and running and bombing is quite different. The Eagles are still based on defense.

Just like the media and fans said that the Eagles were running and bombing, Coach Kruger insisted that it was an advanced version of cavalry tactics.

Now Liu Mang and coach Kruger encountered the real strongest version of running and bombing for the first time, and they couldn't react for a while.

Real running and bombing. When the two really played against each other for the first time, they knew what it means to really regard shooting as a belief!

Nash's Suns showed Liu Mang and the Eagles what real running and bombing is!
