“Progressive Princeton?”

"Yes, progressive Princeton, this is our new tactic, and it is still being improved. With Rajan, our cavalry tactics can also perform better, and we have more ways to integrate our players into

In the team's offense, I think we will get better and better, and we will wait for Sean to come back. Tracy is too impulsive, but he is a good teammate, and he will stand up when his teammates are in trouble..."

When Coach Kruger was asked about the new tactics used in the first three quarters today, he named the name that the team members unanimously approved.

Liu Mang named the new tactic "Super Sun and Sky Tactics", which was collectively rejected by his teammates.

Coach Kruger named it "Progressive Princeton" and it was unanimously recognized.

Liu Mang felt that these teammates had no appreciation level at all. As expected, artists are all lonely...

…

With 12 wins and 6 losses, the Hawks have consolidated their third position in the Eastern Conference. After three consecutive away games in the Southwest Division, the Hawks returned to Atlanta and will start a wave of home games.

But here comes the problem.

McGrady punched someone, and a fight broke out later. McGrady received two punches and hit Ginobili three times. It almost caused a group fight and was suspended for five games. He was fined $10,000, including five games.

No, as the Hawks' second-highest salary after Liu Mang, and one of the top ten paid players in the league who is short of the designated veteran maximum salary of 1.5 million, McGrady is going to bleed a lot this time.

Ginobili's flagrant foul was increased to level 2 and he was suspended for one game. The subsequent fight was suspended for five games, for a total of six games.

This punishment is considered very serious. The fight between the two did not trigger a large-scale conflict. The alliance just wanted to make a warning to others. Artest's presence will always remind the alliance of Mount Auburn...

During the game, Duncan's technical foul was cancelled. Kwame Brown rushed forward with his fists waving, and there was a possibility of increasing the scope of the fight, but Duncan...

When the fight was over and the technical foul was determined, the TV commentators and fans were all wondering why Duncan also took the technical foul.

In addition to McGrady being suspended for five games, Marion's X-ray examination determined that there was no problem with the bones. An MRI examination showed that the ligaments were only overstretched and the cartilage was bruised. Except for the detached knuckles, there was no serious problem!

But knuckle detachment is more troublesome than shoulder dislocation. This is because the bones are separated, and a plaster or splint is required to allow the connective tissue between the bones to grow again.

This Liu Mang couldn't use his star points and physical potions to quickly cure Marion, so he could only wait.

The estimated recovery time is two to three weeks.

Liu Mang knew that it was about two weeks, and the system's calculations were correct, but it was still a long time.

That is to say, there is a high probability that Marion will basically not be able to play in the first half of December, and McGrady will not be able to play in the first ten days of December...

The atmosphere of a team is definitely not good if a teammate is angry and indifferent when a teammate is raped.

When a teammate suffers a loss, others immediately go to help, and the team atmosphere must be good.

Eagles fans are very happy that their team has a good atmosphere. Marion has developed a close relationship with his teammates since he arrived, which makes the fans feel happy.

After all, he is a super power forward who once averaged 20.10 per game and is now at his peak. When he came to the Hawks, his data dropped to 12 points and 11 rebounds per game. Some fans were worried that Marion would be unhappy and not get along well with his teammates. After all, it can be seen.

, Marion just has less possession of the ball, takes fewer shots, his scoring declines, and he rebounds more.

But without McGrady standing up for his teammates and without Marion, Hawks fans were a lot more worried in the five games in early December.

Liu Mang and the coaching staff are also worried. They have just found some ways to integrate Marion more into the team's offense, but they have to postpone it again.

But that's it, it's just a good time to train the new players, rearrange the rotation time, try to let Rondo, who is gradually figuring out how to use it, play more, and also let the two second-year players Granger and David Lee find a clearer position.

.

Since Marion and McGrady missed five games together, Millsap, who was sent to the Development League, was recalled, and Ryan Hollins, who had not played a game with the team, was also placed on the active list.

Marion's absence cannot be made up for by the aging Rasheed Wallace or the second-year David Lee. Millsap averaged 23 points and 8 rebounds per game in the Development League, but not in the NBA.

At one level, Hollins... has the characteristics of being high and can be used as the third center.

…

…

With the two big players absent, the game will come as it should.

It's been a long time since the lineup has been this good, and it's even worse than the previous two seasons when we had a rest.

Liu Mang, Battier, Prince, David Lee, Kwame Brown, this is the Hawks' lineup for the five games that McGrady was absent.

In five games, against the Clippers, SuperSonics, Jazz, Kings, Wizards, the Hawks achieved a record of 3 wins and 2 losses.

Liu Mang's scoring surged significantly in five games, averaging 33 points, 8 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.2 blocks in 35 minutes per game.

The performance of role players is indeed unstable. No matter how talented Rondo is, he is still a rookie. When he plays less time, he feels amazing. After more playing time, even if he knows how to use his characteristics, more shortcomings are exposed.

There is no way to expect all rookies to immediately become first- and second-tier stars like Liu Mang, Duncan, James, and Paul. Under the premise that the Eagles' goal is to maintain the home court advantage in the first round, even if they don't play well, the Eagles still have patience.

Moreover, Rondo averaged 3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 5 assists in 20 minutes per game, which has surprised the Eagles coaching staff.

David Lee's singles skills are getting better and better, and his defensive rebounding skills are no worse than Marion's, but the offensive rebounds are basically zero.

He has a generous body shape and is solid in blocking people. His shortcomings are lack of explosive power, weak tactical awareness, and zero defense.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Millsap has strong impact ability, good offensive rebounds, and good defense, but has no offensive skills and poor defensive rebounds.

Granger has shown talent, with excellent shooting from both wings and stable defense. There is no amazing performance, but he is very stable. Although he is tall, the shooting guard will not be easily out of position if he switches to guard the point guard.

Mainly because of his generous personality. He is only in second grade and has a leadership temperament.

And Granger sees clearly, he knows what the Hawks need him to do, and he also knows that after two to three years of polishing, he will be sold when his rookie contract is about the same, like Iguodala and Josh-

Like Smith, he trades draft picks or has immediate strength, so he can endure.

The Hawks have a reputation of helping players who are traded find a good destination. After stars such as Raheem, Ratliff, Boozer, Josh Smith, and Iguodala left the team one after another, they all found good homes.

, has gradually been learned by players, fans, and media, and has become the key to the Eagles attracting young players or stars in their prime.

However, the veterans don't care much about this. They either want more money at the end of their careers, or they choose the team that has a better chance of winning the championship at the moment.

With 15 wins and 8 losses, the Hawks have a pretty good record and are firmly in third place in the Eastern Conference, beating the Heat, who are fifth in the Eastern Conference.

…

"cheers……"

The little girl held up her drink and cheered with the adults.

"Tracy, you can finally play ball again!" Liu Mang was very happy.

On December 9, the day after the Hawks played their first five games in December, Liu Mang invited McGrady and his family to his home and held a house party for just the two of them.

"I can't wait any longer. You actually lost to the Clippers. It's useless." McGrady complained to Liu Mang.

What can Liu Mang do? The Clippers meeting him is like meeting the enemy who killed his father. Brand and Cassell, who are still entangled over contract issues, are playing hard and fouling fiercely. Liu Mang is being protected.

, played only 27 minutes, and the Hawks lost to the Clippers 97-107.

The key is that Jason Terry was guarded by Cassel. This guy is already 37 years old, but he still averages 13 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1.3 steals per game...

It's just that Cassell's contract-turning characteristics have come into play again. He still wants a big contract, but the Clippers have been holding back. Cassell has begun to toss again. The Clippers seemed to be on the rise last season.

, hit the rocks again...

But facing Liu Mang, who broke the all-time scoring record in away games and became the only guy in history to score 90 points in a single game, and who accomplished this feat on their head, the Clippers must not be like encountering a father-killer.

Do enemies fight the same?

After complaining about Liu Mang, Maddie felt much happier.

As a professional player, the feeling of not being able to play is excruciating. Moreover, not to mention the suspension, McGrady lost $1.13 million in salary in five games and was also fined.

Marion was originally going to help McGrady pay the fines, but McGrady refused to save face.

Face was saved, but more than one million US dollars was lost...

After being complained about by McGrady, Liu Mang is in high spirits now, McGrady is finally coming back!

Without McGrady or Marion, Liu Mang can lead the team to win, but it is relatively difficult!

One thing is quite troublesome, the opponents in the five games are not top teams, but they still only have 3 wins and 2 losses.

It is necessary to train new players and win games. Without Tracy McGrady and Marion, Liu Mang has to wipe the butts of his young teammates in almost every game. He enjoys playing, but he feels unhappy when he loses.

If physical fitness is ignored and Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Prince, and Kwame Brown are allowed to play more, 40 minutes per game, even without Tracy McGrady and Marion, Liu Mang will still have the confidence to win consecutive games, even if it is just one

This season, Liu Mang is also confident of hitting 60 wins, but the team's plan is not like this. What the team wants is a long-term plan. Liu Mang's career is still long. In people's eyes, Liu Mang's playing style and ability to stay healthy.

There is at least another 10 years of peak period left.
