Chapter 932 931.18 Winning Streak (seeking tickets)

Back from the intermission, Jason Terry was replaced by the Eagles, Liu Mang and McGrady went to rest, and Persson, Iguodala, Josh Smith, and Mourning played.

Iverson, a monster of iron and steel, was not far behind in the score. Naturally, he had to go to the end. He brought the tall two-meter-and-one shooting guards John Samuels, Josh Childress, Webber, and Haitian Dalembert on the field.

When Iverson came on the court, he saw that the Eagles were going up and down!Good guy, two rookies, two old men, plus a wave ratio, Iverson was already unhappy, and now he is even more unhappy.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Iverson advanced to the frontcourt after receiving the serve. The 76ers were better at playing positional warfare, mainly because of Webber.

The 76ers' offense was initiated from Iverson's breakthrough. Iverson looked at the rookie Iguodala who was defending him, and completely ignored him, and made a quick breakthrough!
It doesn’t make much difference whether you look at it or not, anyway, Iguodala can’t keep up, Iverson moved laterally on the left side, broke through from the right, and rushed to the right side of the free throw line in two steps. Just when he was looking for Webb or Childress, he found that there were a bunch of people crowded in the middle and under the basket!

Webber and Childress were blocked at the free throw line, all four players of the Hawks were in the three-second zone, and Iguodala was also stepping on the sideline of the three-second zone, which meant that all five players of the Eagles were crowded in the three-second zone!

Webber and Childress were blocked at the free throw line, Iverson stepped inside the right side of the free throw line, only Samuels was in the left corner of the basket, but Iverson dared not pass!This kind of large-scale transfer is too dangerous with a group of people. He didn't expect the Eagles to block the basket like this. Dalembert can't get out of the three-second zone, and it doesn't make any sense if he can't get out. He has no effect if he leaves the three-second zone.

Childress reacted quickly and immediately retreated to the top arc. Iverson immediately passed the ball. When Childress received the ball, the Eagles had no one to guard against it. Only Persson went to block Samuels in the bottom corner to receive the ball.

Childress hesitated for a moment, he hadn't shot a three-pointer today, but there was a big gap, so he hesitated and threw it...

"Bang..."

Iguodala used his teammates to block the opponent, jumped high and grabbed the defensive rebound.

When it came to the Eagles offense, Jason Terry started to score in singles. The 76ers team did a good job in flanking the area. A group of players with high IQ did a good job in this area. But in one-on-one defense, apart from Dalembert, the best is Iverson...

Jason Terry took the wind, Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest, these defensive masters of the best defensive team can't defend, let alone Iverson.

Jason Terry doesn't think about the team's offense like Liu Mang and McGrady. Except for double-teaming, he doesn't care about anything, he just shoots.

The motivation for the 18-game winning streak is sufficient. Jason Terry feels good today, maintaining a mid-range shooting percentage of about [-]%.

On the defensive end, the Eagles blocked the 76ers' basket and mainly defended Iverson and Webber's high-post support. Childress ran there, Josh Smith, Pearson, and Jason Terry blocked which side. Iguodala mainly defended Iverson's mid-range shot and cut off the outside pass from Iverson and Samuels.

Iverson and Childress got a lot of three-point opportunities, but they couldn't make them!

Iverson, who had nothing to do, began to break through the emergency stop jumper by himself.

If the 76ers head coach Jim O'Brien is black, he will definitely have a black question mark face-is there such a defense?

This is clearly gambling!

Just as the head coach of the 76ers thought, Coach Kruger and Liu Mang were planning to bet that the 76ers' three-pointer would lead to a tiebreaker for the Rockets.

The key point is that the 76ers only made two three-pointers in the first quarter. Although they scored one, except for Iverson who missed a throw and Rodney Rogers who made a throw, the 76ers didn't make a three-pointer in the first quarter.

No matter how strong the three-point ability is, the team only made two three-pointers in a whole quarter, and it will be difficult to quickly find the touch afterwards!
Moreover, the 76ers mainly attacked the inside at the beginning, and encountered many defensive confrontations. It was extremely difficult to quickly find a three-pointer!
Moreover, the 76ers are the third-worst three-pointer in the league this season, and the Bobcats and Hornets are better than them in three-pointers...

Halfway through the first quarter, coach Kruger started to have an idea when he found that the 76ers could play such a good three-point line. Let them play smoothly inside the three-point line until they believed that they could compete with the Eagles.
It now appears that the tactic has worked!

The Eagles coaching staff spent so much effort to deal with the 76ers, a team with vastly different strengths, mainly because they may meet in the first round of the playoffs, so they want to learn as much as possible about their strengths so that they can deal with them in the playoffs.

Coach Kruger dared to use a "research" mentality to deal with the 76ers, showing his confidence and arrogance as a champion coach!
18 consecutive victories can't stop the arrogance of the Eagles, they just believe that they are the strongest!

Although Iverson is great, and the combination with Webber is very good, but the role players are so poor. In fact, the 76ers rely on the offensive threat brought by the partnership of Iverson and Webber to help teammates score. Rasheed Wallace and Prince are two three-pointers with 30.00% four-five shooting percentage.

But the 76ers did not. After the only firepower of the 76ers outside was targeted, as long as the inside was blocked, the 76ers would play very hard.

In the second half of the second quarter, Iverson and Webber figured it out. They wanted to rely on the team to beat the Eagles, even if the opposing team had two generals, Rasheed Wallace and Prince, and their defense declined seriously, they were stronger than their role player lineup!The two started singles tactics.

After Iverson and Webber played two consecutive singles, the Eagles immediately replaced Liu Mang and McGrady.

Compared with a duo, Liu Mang and McGrady's partner is obviously stronger!And compared to Iverson who just learned to partner with Webber, Liu Mang and McGrady have been working together for more than half a season, and they are now the best guard line combination in the league.

After Liu Mang and McGrady came up, they took advantage of McGrady's breakout to score the ball, and Liu Mang's pick-and-roll, coupled with Korver's excellent touch today, the 76ers blocked Liu Mang and McGrady with area double-teams, but Korver couldn't be guarded. Even Mourning inside and Josh Smith in the air cut got shots.

Unknowingly, Iverson fought and started the battle of trapped beasts again. He could only start to be forced to score points, but this time he was not alone, and Webber, who was 32 years old but became more lethal in low positions after gaining weight, started the battle of trapped beasts.

For the Eagles, Jason Terry mainly focuses on singles tactics. When Jason Terry goes down, Liu Mang and McGrady mainly focus on running and passing.

Iverson's strong scoring ability was once again demonstrated. After the third quarter, the Eagles scored 89 to 73, leading by 16 points. Iverson scored 12 points in the fourth quarter. He played a wave of 12 to 5 against the Eagles, and suddenly narrowed the point difference to 9 points, scaring the Eagles.

Iverson played the first three quarters and the fourth quarter can still play like that!This physical ability is too admirable!

However, Liu Mang and Jason Terry fired consecutively and scored a score of 13 to 6, again widening the gap by 16 points.

艾弗森前三节拿到26分3板7助攻，第四节拿到16分3助攻，韦伯也拿到了28分7板6助攻，两人合砍70分，表现相当出色。

But for the Eagles, Liu Mang scored 16 points in the first quarter, and steadily scored 41 points in each of the next three quarters. He scored 8 points, 5 rebounds and 17 assists in the game. McGrady scored 4 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists. Jason Terry scored 3 points and 13 assists. Kwame Brown scored 15 points and 6 rebounds.
Relying on the performance of five players scoring in double figures, the Eagles maintained their lead until the end. With a difference of 14 points, they defeated the 118ers 104 to 76 and won 18 consecutive victories!

……

……

"Ding... The second phase of King's Landing triggers the task: the master has met the task completion requirements. The task reward will be calculated based on the final winning streak. The reward is multiplied by 1000 superstar points. Winning the championship is the proof of a superstar. Two consecutive championships are the beginning of the dynasty. The second phase of the King's Landing task: the prelude to the dynasty has begun."

"Dynasty Prologue: The second phase of King's Landing mission, the host needs to lead the team to win two consecutive championships, and win the finals MVP twice in a row. Mission reward: 1 high-level power fruit."

After beating the 76ers and winning 18 consecutive victories, Liu Mang finally heard the reminder that the second phase of the King's Landing mission has started.

The Eagles won 18 consecutive victories, which caused a sensation, but this is not an important thing for Liu Mang. People may think that 18 consecutive victories is a "championship winning streak", but it will not be the case in the future. Fans are relatively superstitious about "authoritative data".

An 18-game winning streak or even a longer winning streak is considered an honor, but for the current Liu Mang, one more game in a row is just an extra 1000 superstar points.

What matters is the quest "Dynasty Prologue".

It happened to be the power he urgently needed to improve again now!
His current strength is enough for him to maintain enough confrontation at the point guard, as well as some aerial work and footwork changes after he gets to the basket, but it is time for him to improve his strength again.

Regardless of whether it is Kobe or Jordan, their strength is among the best in the same position. What makes them stronger than Ray Allen is their singles. Ray Allen has a good core strength and a good fadeaway, but the singles fadeaway jumper is much worse than Kobe and Jordan.

Nash is also similar to Ray Allen. He has good core strength, but poor overall strength. It’s not that he doesn’t like scoring. He has good shooting ability, but his singles performance is not as strong as that of Kobe and Jordan.It's just that I get 15 assists to help the team win more than 30 points or even 40 points.

Liu Mang needs to improve his core strength, and of course he also wants to improve his overall strength. The strength rating of 81 is still too low, and he didn't gain the upper hand against Iverson.

Abdominal strength has an effect on pulling the bar and leaning back, but it has nothing to do with confrontation. Liu Mang is limited by his height and weight, and his overall strength cannot be increased too much by increasing his muscles. Otherwise, his speed and flexibility will decrease. Kobe is the best example.

The high-level power fruit came at a really good time!
Liu Mang read the task description in the prelude to the dynasty.

"Need to lead the team to win two consecutive championships... Boss of the system, does this mean that it is necessary to win two consecutive championships this season?"

"Ding... Mission: The prelude to the dynasty, you only need to complete two consecutive championships, and there are no other restrictions, including not limited to the two consecutive championships after this defending."

"Sure enough, there are no mission failure restrictions and failure penalties, that is, if you don't win two consecutive championships before you retire, you can't start a dynasty. Winning a championship establishes your status as a superstar, and the next step is to pursue your own dynasty..."

Although the task does not require winning two consecutive championships this season, but if you can win two consecutive championships this season, why wait until later?

The task is not required, and Liu Mang wants to do it himself, these two things do not conflict.

To make himself stronger, to enable young teammates to improve faster, and to enable first- and second-year players to perform better, Liu Mang feels that as the boss of the team, this is his responsibility!
Just like Korver has been given a lot of opportunities recently. Although Korver has wasted many opportunities before, he often fails to make open shots because of nervousness or impatience. The Eagles coaching staff was forced to quickly sign Pearson, a steady veteran.

But this time Korver seized the opportunity, and with a good start, it will be easier in the future.

Then there are Josh Smith, Calderon, Iguodala, and even Varejao. These teammates may play a role at critical moments. Letting these young teammates improve their strength will be very helpful for Liu Mang to win the championship in the future.

When he left the stadium just now, Liu Mang saw Iverson lose again and left without paying attention to anyone. Liu Mang saw it in the first half. Iverson also wanted to use himself to make his teammates better. It’s just that his teammates are talented like that, and their combat power is not good. They can only win with two cores. But teammates like Iverson have been playing for a long time, and he is still working hard, which touched Liu Mang a lot.

After winning 18 consecutive victories, it's time for the team to train young players, select better young players to enter the playoff roster, and let the main players rest. For Liu Mang, it's time to finally hit the score and train his running ability.

The sprint for two consecutive championships has already begun from this moment!
