"Big Shark's Fury: Shaq O'Neal is furious because he has been robbed of his All-Star starters and will do his best when he meets Kwame Brown next. The host team will need to limit Shaq O'Neal's scoring to 30 points for the remainder of the season against the Heat. Mission Reward: Shaq O'Neal 04-05 Season Star Card. Failure Penalty: 10,000 Star Points are deducted. ”

Depend on! Stingy fat man, Liu Mang couldn't help but slander: It's not the master who robbed your all-star starter!

Originally, I thought that if the punishment was not high, on the premise of guaranteed winning, it would be beneficial for physical and mental health to let Kwame Brown be abused by O'Neal, who knew that 10,000 superstar points would be deducted if the mission failed!

You have to play three or four games, play good numbers, and you have to win to earn it back!

And O'Neal's star card this season, what's the use?

The star card of the peak O'Neal is also used to hit people inside.

It doesn't seem bad to bump into people......

Anyway, this season's regular season must win against the Heat.

"Dancing with the Giants: The host needs to win the next games against the Heat and the Rockets. Rewards: Dwyan-Wade 03-04 Season Star Card, 20,000 Superstar Points; Failure Punishment: All-Star Weekend invites O'Neal and Yao Ming to dance together. ”

Looking at this task, Liu Mang felt that his eggs hurt, and he had to play with the Heat twice in the regular season, and the second meeting of the Rockets was in the Chinese New Year's Eve on the last day of the month.

When the time comes, let Kwame Brown and Mourning fight to defend O'Neal, and the firepower of Wade on the outside will be able to compete with Liu Mang himself.

Liu Mang looked very open.

An hour of individual training in the morning ended with a team meeting at 10 a.m. in preparation for the evening game against the Celtics.

After the meeting, Liu Mang drove home and took Alexia to a private hospital for a physical examination.

Public hospitals in the United States generally have to queue up long in advance, and free medical care is true, but Liu Mang remembers that when he was a freshman, a black teammate had his head open in a fight in the community, and he was dripping with blood, and as a result, he queued up all night, and by the time the doctor went to work on time the next morning, not one minute earlier or one minute late, it was already scarred, and he still had to wait for others who came to the queue earlier to see him before it was their turn.

I went to the hospital where the private doctor hired by Liu Mang's family was located, and the disadvantage of private hospitals was that they were expensive, but the advantage was that they were on call 24 hours a day, as long as they had money.

Before the private doctor came to Liu Mang's house to see a doctor, because there was no equipment, what he could see was usually a cold, fever and other minor illnesses, and Alexia's symptoms were not serious, so he only thought that he was not feeling well, and he didn't get a result, so the doctor asked Liu Mang to bring Alexia to the hospital today.

After doing some testing and analysis, the first thing Liu Mang and Alexia said to the two after the doctor read the urine test analysis report was: "Congratulations to ......"

……

……

"Bang"

"Ouch......"

"Ace, are you alright?" Calderon didn't expect to pass a ball to Liu Mang, and it actually hit Liu Mang's head directly.

This is not the key, the key is that Liu Mang didn't react when he saw a ball flying over!

"Ah, it's okay, I'm sorry I got distracted." Liu Mang picked up the ball and threw it to Calderón.

Now it's the team's tactical training, it's a simple pass and cut match.

Since Maddie is still in the observation period today, the coaching staff will not let him participate in tonight's game, but the training is still okay, so Maddie was put on the bench team to train, and the passer who partnered with Liu Mang was Calderon.

Coach Kruger blew the whistle: "Let's go here for today's training first, John, let them work in groups for a small area of coordinated training, Ace, you come over for a while." ”

Liu Mang followed Coach Kruger to the side.

"Ace, what's wrong with you today? The whole training session was distracted. Coach Kruger asked worriedly when he saw Liu Mang's absent-minded look.

"Huh? I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Liu Mang quickly apologized, "I'm thinking about things." ”

"Thinking about things? Ace, what's wrong with you? Coach Kruger cared.

"It's not a bad thing...... Liu Mang thought of Alexia who jumped up with excitement when he heard the doctor's words, and couldn't help but smirk again, and his mind wandered again......

Seeing Liu Mang's smirk, Coach Kruger didn't know what to say, it didn't seem like anything was wrong, but what does it mean to be distracted when he doesn't agree like this?

"Ace, tell me quickly, what's the matter!" Coach Kruger asked, holding back his anger.

Liu Mang was woken up from his distraction again: "Huh? Oh, coach, do you want to know? ”

Coach Kruger couldn't help it, and kicked at Liu Mang: "Say it quickly!" ”

Thanks to Liu Mang, he was awakened by Coach Kruger just now, and the snakeskin move dodged Coach Kruger's angry kick.

Liu Mang leaned over to Coach Kruger, who was angry, and whispered, "Coach, I'm going to be a father!" ”

"Ace, aren't you already a father? Are you going to marry Levia? No, or do you have children of your own? Ace, although Dinah is not your biological daughter, you still have to love her as your own daughter, and you can't ignore your concern for Dinah just because you have your own children...... "Coach Kruger reminded that there is a lot of news in the United States, there are Chinese men who take American women with children, or Chinese women who marry American men with children and are sentenced for abusing children.

This concept of "biological children" among the Chinese is also very famous in the United States, and it has a very bad reputation.

Liu Mang looked at Coach Kruger, who was nagging like a menopausal uncle, his head was big, but he was still very happy, Coach Kruger loved Dinah as if he were his own granddaughter.

"I know, coach, don't worry, I definitely love Dinah more than I love my own child, by the way, it's Aida who is pregnant......" Liu Mang quickly interrupted, his ears were calloused.

"No, Ace, treat children equally, don't think that children are just children, they have their own ideas, they have their own thoughts, and children are more precocious now than you were then......" Coach Kruger began to nag again......

Although he nagged a little, Liu Mang admired the values of American education for children, they treat every child as an equal person, and will not say that the child is a child, so they are prejudiced against them, excessive love is actually a kind of prejudice, they will treat the child as the same person as themselves, they will communicate with the child in a consultative way, rather than education under the stick, and treat the child as an "investment product".

Liu Mang feels that the two education methods have their own advantages, of course, they also have their own disadvantages, and he will try his best to find a suitable balance between the two education methods.

If you can't find a balance, then don't look for it, anyway, it's your own child, can you still not love it?

Listening to Coach Kruger, a sensible "person who has never raised a child" and has a son or is directly in his teens, talking about his experience, Liu Mang felt funny and moved.

After Coach Kruger's nagging, he regained his serious expression: "Ace, this is a happy thing, but you can't delay the game because of this, you have to play harder, and you have to focus on the game when you are playing." ”

"I know, coach, just use tonight's game to celebrate that I have a baby!"

After Liu Mang finished speaking, he went to practice shooting, and the words with Coach Kruger made Liu Mang's attention concentrate in a trance.

As Coach Krueger said, when you have children, you have to play harder for a better tomorrow!

……

……

Can Liu Mang get the first 40+ in a row? Can you get the 16th 40+ of the season?

That's the biggest attraction of the game.

The Hawks fielded the same lineup today as in the previous game, Liu Mang, Korver, Prince, Rasheed Wallace, and Kwame Brown.

The Celtics fielded Payton, Ricky Davis, Pierce, Antoine Walker, Lafrentz.

Kwame Brown regained his strength in the jump ball and easily won the jump ball from the head of the health boy Lafrentz.

After Liu Mang received the jump ball, he advanced steadily, and because Maddie was not there, the Eagles played an honest positional battle.

Korver opened up space with Prince and Rasheed Wallace, and Liu Mang singled Payton on the top arc.

After Liu Mang entered the NBA, he only won Liu Mang twice, once during the infighting of the Hawks in the 02-03 season, and once when he won one game in the finals last season with the Big Four lineup.

Liu Mang faced Payton's defense, pretended to be strong, and suddenly stepped back to throw a sniper shot, Payton's brain reacted, but his body couldn't keep up, Liu Mang easily stepped back and threw a three-point shot, helping the Hawks win the first offense and lead 3-0 at the beginning.

Immediately after the Celtics, Antoine Walker received the ball and threw another "bang" three-pointer, and Antoine Walker's three-point shot was to watch the sky.

Kwame Brown easily grabbed a defensive rebound from Lafrentz, who didn't even bother to get a card in the spot.

Liu Mang quickly advanced after receiving the pass, and the rest of the Hawks also followed quickly, after Liu Mang arrived in the frontcourt, due to the first three-point direct shot, he made a sharp stop outside the three-point line, and immediately concentrated the opponent's defense to the top arc, Prince cut into the inside, Liu Mang hung the ball to Prince, Prince flew low and received the ball by his arm span and pressed it into the basket.

The Eagles started 5-0!

In this game, if it falls into a positional battle, Liu Mang will focus on sharing the ball alone, using his mid-to-long-range shooting threat to break through, or retreat and snipe, or burst to the basket to shoot, and pass the ball when he encounters a pinch attack and supplementary defense.

If you defend yourself and fight back, Liu Mang will run with his teammates!

In the ninth minute of the first quarter, Liu Mang had already shot 3 of 6, including 2 of 3 3-pointers, and 1 free throw, scoring 9 points!

The number of shots is low, mainly because the Celtics have more pinching on him, and he has more passes at the beginning, and he has 6 assists in 9 minutes!

When the Hawks played in the ninth minute, they relied on Liu Mang's 9 points and 6 assists to lead the Celtics by 5 points 25-20!

The Celtics' defense is really bad enough now, Antoine Walker's defense is notoriously poor, Lafrentz occupies the starting playing time with an annual salary of tens of millions, plays 9 points and 5 rebounds, and the offense can throw three points, and the defensive end is simply like a decoration.

Ricky Davis also wants the ball, whether he is a starter or a substitute, he needs to concentrate the ball, he is like a weakened version of LeBron James, but even if he is at his peak, his efficiency is not as good as James in his rookie season, and now his data in the Celtics is good, 16+3+3, but it doesn't work very well, and it doesn't work at all without the ball.

Pierce is now also taking care of the offense, the entire Celtics, Payton is willing to defend alone, he is willing to defend and defend seriously, but Peyton, who is about to turn 37 years old, can only be said to be powerless in the face of Liu Mang.

Payton's status singles, Ricky Davis' breakaway shots, Antoine Walker's three-point shots, Pierce's kaleidoscope offensive singles, when the four singles masters encounter a weak team that doesn't defend well, they can still figure out a way from the offensive end, but play the Hawks......

Ricky Davis was locked up by Liu Mang; Payton fell to the low post to play Korver, and Kwame Brown was responsible for the pinch, and Lafrentz shot only 50 percent from the basket with a center forward, which is simply the older generation of Joakim Noah, the key is that he is still just attacking like Joain Noah, and the defense is completely incomparable; Antoine Walker is betting on outside shooting, Antoine Walker's average of 16 points per game this season is not bad, and his average of 2.4 three-pointers per game is not bad, but the number of shots is 7.5, and the rebounds have also slipped to a career low of 7.2 per game.

The Celtics' highest offensive success rate is Pierce, who has the most powerful defense!

If it weren't for Pierce's defense in the face of Prince's defense, the Celtics would have collapsed in the first quarter by relying on singles on 5-of-7 shooting to score 12 points.

Pierce has been playing very tired this year, very tired, if the team defends well, he has no problem playing singles, but the team defense is too poor, and there are too many people who want the ball to play alone, the point is that the Celtics have no other people who are more efficient than him in singles, but those people have to have the ball to contribute.

After playing last season, he was used to being the absolute boss of the team, but this season, Antoine Walker is back.

The last time Antoine Walker left, he said something that made Pierce angry, and Antoine Walker came back with no change in his style of play, and he still played the same big game with the ball.

Half a season has passed, and Pierce feels that this season is even more tired than last season! Although the Celtics had a bad record last season, everyone played mainly as a team, but after Antoine Walker returned, it became singles and singles again.

But the East is no longer the East it used to be, O'Neal and Webb travel east, the Wizards and the Bulls rise, the East is at the strongest overall strength in more than ten years, if it is not for the Pacers to collapse, the real rise of the East is a matter of time, Pistons, Hawks, Pacers, Heat four championship-level top teams, compared to the West is not bad at all.

This season, the Celtics played a similar performance as they did in 02-03, but now they have been squeezed out of the top eight in the East by the Pacers, 76ers, and Wizards.

Pierce doesn't want to lose against the Hawks, he's still fighting for the eighth place in the East, the Celtics are now 20-23, counting the game with the Hawks, the Celtics still have 39 games, and it's not without a playoff opportunity.

And Liu Mang on the Hawks' side doesn't seem to have Maddie today, the scoring effect is not good, although there are many passes, but they can't open the score, Pierce feels that this game still has a chance to win! Pierce felt that the Eagles' ability to win had a lot to do with Liu's high score.

The fans at the scene saw that Liu Mang only scored 11 points in the first quarter, and they had the same opinion as Pierce, and they were a little regretful that Liu Mang was playing more steadily because Maddie was not there.

However, the fans have different views from Pierce, and the fans are worried that the Hawks will open up the point difference in three or two, and Liu Mang will have to clock out of work if he can't score 40 points.

Eagles fans are confident, very confident, because although Maddie can't play, he still has a gun on the bench!

Jason Terry!

However, the steady style of play has nothing to do with Liu Mang......

After returning from the timeout, the Eagles switched to a combination of Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Josh Smith, Kwame Brown, and Mourning.

Put Kwame Brown and Mourning on the court together, and Josh Smith playing small forward to impact the rebound!

Liu Mang and Jason Terry started to play in a wave of 10 minutes from the ninth minute of the first quarter to the official timeout in the second quarter!

The three-interior combination is to impact offensive rebounds, as well as defend the basket on the defensive end to allow Liu Mang and Jason Terry to counterattack.

Only scored 9 points in 9 minutes, but 3 3-pointers shot 2 hits, Liu Mang knew that he was coming, and when Jason Terry came on the court, he followed the rhythm of Jason Terry and waved!

Pierce is also looking forward to Liu Mang's score today's 'sluggish', for the Eagles' opponents, Liu Mang can't score 40 points now, that is, the score is sluggish, Pierce is looking forward to Liu Mang today because Maddie is not in the scoring slump, relying on singles to bite the score.

But when Liu Mang and Jason Terry got up together, Pierce found that he really thought too much!

It's horrible!

Liu Mang and Jason Terry threw wildly together, as if they were playing with a basketball machine!

Playing fast break, Liu Mang and Jason Terry also threw wildly regardless of whether they could score or not, Josh Smith and Kwame Brown pressed the Celtics inside to grab offensive rebounds, at this time Mourning was not fast in the backcourt, guarding the basket to avoid the double-wave combination not being able to shoot and being counterattacked by the opponent to attack the basket directly.

Falling into the positional battle play, the Hawks grabbed the rebounds with three people, and the Hawks threw them with two people.

This style of play is completely based on the premise that the Hawks' two big outside shots are very accurate!

Liu Mang averaged 3.7 three-pointers per game, ranking first in the league with a 41 percent shooting rate, and Jason Terry averaged 2.5 three-pointers per game, with a 42.5 percent shooting rate higher than Liu Mang!

In the middle of the second quarter, Pierce found that he wanted to take advantage of Liu Mang without Maddie "can't score", but he was thinking too much...... I didn't have Maddie last year, but I was also the top scorer!
