425. The sword never grows old

Liu Mang's words shocked the fans watching the live broadcast, as well as the fans at the scene, and all the players who were about to participate in the game.

There is no lack of respect, but there is no concealment of fighting spirit!

This is not just a speech, nor is it just a declaration of war, it is even more profound, it is announcing the arrival of a new era!

In the past few years, the NBA has been said to be a post-Jordan era, because when Jordan retired, he was at the end of his peak. He was still the league's scoring leader. He had just finished a double MVP season in which he won the regular season MVP and the Finals MVP, and it was three years later.

After coming back after a year, he still averaged 23 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists per game last season. Many people are wondering if Jordan had not retired in 1998, would there have been four consecutive championships? When OK was combined, Jordan and Pippen were old.

, the Bulls may be defeated, but people still think the Bulls can win the 99 Spurs.

The post-Jordan era is not an era after Jordan, but an era living in the shadow of Jordan.

Liu Mang's declaration of war seems to want to tell people that a new era has arrived!



The game is about to begin. Because of Liu Mang's relationship, it was originally a harmonious game after a happy tribute, but now both teams must win!

The Wizards must help Jordan gain face.

The Eagles were undoubtedly shocked by Liu Mang's actions, but they were also excited!

Just like Liu Mang said, they are creating their own era. As for Jordan, they respect, admire and admire him very much, but Jordan, who is so old, should retire!

The scene was filled with the smell of gunpowder, but the level of tension was no less intense than when enemies meet.

"Michael Jordan, ability value 84, offense 90, defense 75, three-pointer 65, mid-range shot 91, layup 87, speed 85, strength 88..."

Liu Mang looked at Jordan's ability assessment and found that his overall strength had dropped a lot compared to last season. The main reason was that his physical fitness had further declined, his speed had become slower, and his strength had become stronger. As he gets older, this is normal. Speed

Slower and explosive power becomes weaker but pure strength becomes stronger.

Of course, Jordan's explosive power has become weaker, but it is still considered excellent. Coupled with the huge static strength after gaining weight, he has a strength value of 88, which is the first among defenders. If you really want to talk about it, when he is blocked, his strength is

The effect is more than 88, which can be seen from his rebounds per game ranking in the top five in his career this year.

This is not only reflected in the rebounding data, but can also be seen directly from the body shape. Even Jordan, who was 33 to 35 years old during the second three consecutive championships, was considered lean. After the end of last season, Jordan

I have gained a lot of weight. Now my weight has increased from 98 kilograms last season to 105 kilograms. My elbows are as good as those of power forwards and some centers!

His physical fitness is better than last season, probably because he has been training systematically for more than a year. Although Jordan's data has declined this year, he has taken fewer shots and his shooting percentage has improved significantly. With 4 fewer shots per game, he averaged

The score only dropped by a little more than two points, and the efficiency was greatly improved compared to last season. Not only that, Jordan's playing time increased a lot compared to last season, with the average playing time reaching 37 minutes per game.

Averaged 20.6 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game. This old guy is so scary! He’s 40 years old!

Players from both teams appear!

This time, Liu Mang has no suspenseful choice. Jason Terry once again decided to come on the bench. Since Boozer is on the bench this year, the Hawks have no shortage of substitute scorers. Liu Mang and Jason

- Terry was fine, but Jason Terry had to come on the bench, and he was very unwilling to do so, because when it was his turn to come on the bench, the whole world was targeting him.

The Eagles sent Liu Mang, Prince, Rahim, Muhammad, and Ratliff.

The lineup sent by the Wizards is Larry Hughes, Stackhouse, Jordan, Laettner, and Kwame Brown.

Larry Hughes, one of the Wizards' important signings in the summer. In order to cultivate Arenas and Jason Richardson, the Warriors gave up Larry Hughes's parent team's priority renewal rights. Mr. Joe relied on

With his personal charm, he successfully acquired this forward-back swingman who can play three positions on the outside with a three-year mid-level contract.

Today is the second time this season that Kwame Brown has averaged 6 points and 6 rebounds per game. His performance is the best among the Wizards center positions, but Jordan prefers to let Liu Mang and Kwame Brown be drafted in the same class as the No. 20 pick.

Landon Haywood, because Kwame Brown looks lifeless, is far less passionate than Haywood. Although Haywood's statistics and defensive efficiency are not as good as Kwame Brown, Jordan at least watched a No. 20 pick score 4 points.

The data on plate 4 seems to be normal and not terrible at all.

But today, Kwame Brown seemed very excited and passionate. He was very excited after playing!

He was moved emotionally by Liu Mang's words!

"Jordan is retiring!"

Kwame Brown has this sentence all over his mind! He feels that he is still young and can wait until Jordan retires!

Liu Mang was a little confused when he saw that Kwame Brown was very excited today. If he knew what Kwame Brown was thinking, he would definitely complain: There is a more paranoid No. 8 waiting for you later...

Liu Mang thought of the previous news and discussions from the media and fans, all saying that he had become a passer and the substitute was a scorer. This time he was going to break people's impressions and let them know what he was.

How “various” it is!

The referee blew the whistle to start the game, and the two teams came to the center circle. Kwame Brown and Ratliff jumped the ball in the center circle!

Kwame Brown's jump ball is amazing. His physical fitness is so good. Before gaining weight, his bounce was unmatched at the center position.

Kwame Brown moved the ball backwards, and Hughes received the ball and advanced.

The Eagles didn't retreat quickly, mainly because the Wizards couldn't get up quickly. The Eagles didn't need to run hard and just play normally.

The Wizards are advancing slowly. This season, the Wizards' pace ranks at the bottom of the league. The main thing is positional battles. Try to win against the weaker teams and barely maintain a 50% winning rate. In terms of pace, the Wizards are slower than the Heat this year. They take a shot in every game.

Only 78 times, only the Spurs and Pistons took more shots in the league.

After Hughes advanced, he handed the ball to Stackhouse. The Wizards players looked at the Hawks defense and didn't understand.

Stackhouse looked at Liu Mang who was guarding him, Larry Hughes looked at Prince who was following him, and Jordan looked at Rahim who was guarding him. They were all different from what they expected before the game!

What is that second grader talking about? Aren't you going to challenge Jordan one on one?

While Stackhouse was wondering, that annoying guy started talking non-stop!

"Oh, who do I think you are! It turns out to be the guy who was given up by the Pistons in the playoffs and couldn't even beat high school students. I didn't expect you to come to the God of Basketball to hug you. It's a pity that even the God of Basketball can't beat him.

I can’t carry you.”

Seeing Liu Mang's mouth keep beeping like a machine gun, Stackhouse suppressed his inner anger and handed the ball to Jordan, who had his back against Raheem in the low post.

Rahim has tried very hard to get in position with Jordan, but found that he couldn't push this old guy!

Jordan's efficiency has greatly increased this year because he can get into a better position in the low post!

Jordan received the ball and headed over Rahim, turned over and shot a fadeaway jumper! The ball flew past the fingertips of Rahim who was actively rushing towards him, and plunged into the basket!
Chapter completed!
