11. Substitute for substitute
Do you know why the future Crazy Lin was once so popular in New York that surprised Chinese fans?
Now Liu Mang felt it.
Just because of one game and three three-pointers, hundreds of fans wearing his jersey gathered at Phillips' home court!
Phillips Arena can seat 20,000 people. If hundreds of fans dispersed, it would definitely not be obvious, but these four to five hundred fans wearing his jersey suddenly changed their seats and moved together! They gathered behind the technical table.
It’s so obvious!
Although the crowd was not particularly large, even smaller than the Iverson fans who occupied one-third of the Phillips Center, Liu Mang felt the feeling of recognition as soon as he entered the stadium.
Is this what is called a little bit of fame?
"Yes, host. In the last game, Francis was played. The game attracted a lot of attention. He performed brilliantly against Francis. It was similar to your understanding of Lin Crazy scoring 38 points on Kobe. But your influence is much smaller.
, the gap between your strength and peak Lin Kuangshen is too far. Lin Kuangshen's peak ability value is 89. Although it is only less than a month, it is close to the top stars, while your ability value is only 46."
You don’t need to remind me! Why are you hitting me when nothing happens! Their system is all about encouragement and giving various rewards to comfort me. Why is it that I’m getting hit one after another?
Liu Mang was also helpless about this system. When having sex, would this guy come out and say something wrong? Would it be more comfortable to change the position?
Just thinking about it makes me feel a chill!
"Don't worry about the host. When the host does something that has nothing to do with the system, or the system determines that it is the host's private matter, the system will automatically enter the standby state."
Liu Mang ignored this wretched system and began to look at the people on the field while warming up.
Compared with his own team, Liu Mang feels that the 76ers' lineup is simply invincible in the Eastern Conference, which was destroyed by Jordan!
Allen Iverson is currently the league's No. 1 guard, scoring leader, and steal leader.
Aaron McGee is the best substitute in the league right now.
Deborah Mutombo, currently the league's best defensive inside man, has won the Defensive Player of the Year four times and has averaged more than 3.5 blocks per game since his rookie season.
Derrick Coleman, a top power forward who averaged 18 points and 10 rebounds per game before getting injured last season.
Eric Snow is a point guard with first-class defense, Best Defensive Team level, poor scoring ability but excellent passing awareness.
Matt Halprin, a rookie in 1998, is a white small forward with a tough style. His outside shooting has yet to be developed but he is extremely lethal at the basket. He is known for his life-threatening defense. In his rookie year, he was coached by the iron-blooded coach Chuck Daly.
Another bad boy down there.
Chuck Daly is the leader of the Pistons Bad Boys and the supervillain coach who invented the Jordan Rules. In 1999, he announced his permanent retirement from basketball, which made the basketball community across the United States and even the world breathe a sigh of relief, because he was not only
The head coach of the Pistons and the head coach of many Dream Teams.
In addition to the players, the 76ers' head coach Larry Brown is also a super coach. He is much more aura than the Hawks' rookie coach Krueger.
This is simply a gorgeous super team lineup.
In comparison, the Hawks, who were still suppressing the Rockets' lineup yesterday, are now facing a team that except Raheem can barely fight, everyone else... is a jerk...
However, the Hawks still have hope, because two days ago, in the NBA opener on October 31, the 76ers lost 72-103 at home to the Western Conference powerhouse Mavericks by more than 30 points. They were completely beaten, which made people think about this current situation.
There are obvious doubts about the 76ers, who seem to be stronger than last year, because last year Iverson had many conflicts with head coach Larry Brown, and they almost stopped talking to each other in the opening game this year.
When Liu Mang was observing the opponent's lineup, Iverson from the 76ers also looked towards him, and looked directly at him.
He clearly felt the teasing in Iverson's eyes.
Because Francis has already said that the next game against the Hawks will let him know what the NBA is.
Although Francis is older, he is still a new generation player in terms of playing years. Although Iverson has been playing for 5 years, he is also a young player, so they naturally regard each other as rivals.
Francis is only in his third year, but he is already a first-class star. When he played against Iverson, he put a lot of pressure on Iverson. Francis targeted a second-round rookie, which naturally made many young but already famous stars very interested in Liu Mang.
.
This is not a good signal for Liu Mang.
But what can Liu Mang do? Just leave it like this. At this point, he can only take advantage of the situation, even though he doesn't have any good way to take advantage of it.
In the same way, Liu Mang knows that the lineup cannot be changed. His lineup is good. Last year's runner-up was even strengthened. His team is a "weak chicken" who was eliminated by the Raptors 3-1 in the first round last year.
, the lineup is incomparable.
Liu Mang got the ball and tried to shoot. Indeed, the feeling that he had yesterday when he took the ball and felt that the ball would fly into the basket was gone. In the previous afternoon training, he mainly practiced tactical movement, because Coach Kruger had no confidence in Liu Mang.
I really trust Mang's three-pointers. He was a "sharp shooter" with a shooting percentage of over 40% in college. Liu Mang expressed his despair. He wants to practice three-pointers!
However, with the fusion of memories, the memory of shooting has also emerged. However, due to the influence of the memory of playing in the previous world, the shooting cannot be as accurate as before. Slowly practice, with the soft touch of the yellow man, and become a
Excellent spot-up shooters are still possible.
But now, Liu Mang is a little anxious, this shot is basically nothing!
How to do it? How to do it?
Liu Mang could only wait and see what changes would happen after he came on as a substitute and triggered the bench gangster skill.
…
On November 2, 2001, the Eagles played the second game of a back-to-back at home at Phillips Arena.
This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! For the Eagles, Dean Grove, Jason Terry, Sharif Rahim, Nazr Muhammad
, Theo Ratliff.
76ers, Eric Snow, Allen Iverson, Matt Halprin, Derrick Coleman, Dikembe Mutombo.
Seeing Jason Terry being interviewed on the spot before the game started, he was clamoring to beat up Iverson. Liu Mang originally wanted to take advantage of the camera, but then decisively ran away. It seemed that Iverson had already targeted him, so don't let him get caught.
This famous big mouth made Iverson hate himself as much as Francis.
After the game started, Liu Mang remembered that the 76ers whose lineup became stronger but collapsed in the second year after reaching the finals actually appeared. Although the lineup crushed everyone in the league except the Lakers, Spurs, Kings, and Mavericks.
The team, even the Trail Blazers, and the Nets are not as good as the 76ers in terms of lineup, but their strength is simply one dimension worse than last season. Even if they want to suppress the Hawks, they can't!
Larry Brown really doesn't understand what offense is, just like the mad scientist Nelson doesn't understand what defense is. Last year, Iverson averaged 31 points per game. This year, it became Iverson who averaged 31 points per game after Coleman finished.
Mann finished with Matt Halprin's swing, and then Iverson continued.
But there is a word called prosperity and decline. There is no doubt that Iverson’s peak was last season. Last season, at the age of 26, he reached the peak of his career, but the peak means that he will not continue to rise, but will continue to rise every day.
, just fell for one day.
This year's Iverson's ability value is still as high as 94. He is still the strongest defender in the league, but after all he is a little weaker than before. In addition, he has to share the ball rights with newcomers Coleman and Matt Halprin.
, it seems that Iverson's sharpness has declined greatly.
In Liu Mang's opinion, the most suitable style of play for Iverson is the offensive tactic of last season where he played alone and the other four people grabbed offensive rebounds. Now he has two other scorers with the ability to score independently.
Instead, it weakened the overall strength of the 76ers, and changed the team's scoring method from the previous very average scoring method in which Iverson took the lead and others grabbed offensive rebounds for secondary attacks, to one that was concentrated on Iverson, Coleman,
Among the three Matt-Princes, everyone else is just a spectator.
That is to say, the 76ers have become a 3-on-5 situation on the offensive end. There are only two people rushing for offensive rebounds, which is far less efficient than the previous four people rushing for offensive rebounds. There is no guarantee of offensive rebounds. The three of the team control everything.
The efficiency of the scorers who shot was very low. The highest shooting percentage of Coleman was less than 45%, and he was an inside shooter. The lowest shooting percentage of Iverson today was 6 of 16 after the first half.
to 40%.
Offensive rebounds are not guaranteed. In the case of continuous strikes, returning to defense is a big problem. Jason Terry and Raheem of the Eagles are both counterattack masters. The overall lineup is weaker by more than one level.
, the Eagles seized the opportunity given by the 76ers and clenched the score at the end of the first half. The score was tied at 54 at halftime!
The Eagles' performance in the first half today was undoubtedly outstanding! They tied the overall runner-up last season!
But Liu Mang's side...
Sure enough, even if he scored 10 points in a single quarter in the last game, it was still a critical 10 points in the final quarter. Liu Mang also had a hunch that this still could not change his status as a substitute among the substitutes, that is, the water dispenser manager.
