46.No one can guard against anyone
This defense is too bad! Don’t you want to win?
No wonder Kidd later said he didn't want to partner with Carter. How could a first-team defensive player like Kidd appreciate Carter's defense?
But what is this Carter’s favor?
Depend on!
Carter can't be gay!
"Vince Carter's good impression of the host comes from the two offenses and defenses in which Tracy McGrady was disgraced by the host."
I see.
But are Carter and McGrady really cousins? Why is Carter so happy when McGrady embarrasses him?
At this time, the Eagles' tactical movement was almost complete. After Jason Terry and Chris Crawford's off-ball pick-and-roll, they came around the baseline and wanted to catch the ball. However, after the pick-and-roll, two Raptors caught Jason.
-Terry is gone, and no one cares about Chris Crawford.
Chris Crawford basically has no offensive threat except for counterattacks, and his defensive end is average. This is the gap between the Hawks and those truly top teams, except that there are no very good players on the bench.
With no other choice, Liu Mang chose to shoot directly with a three-pointer!
"哐"
Ironclad!
Not to mention, Carter's lack of defense had a great impact on Liu Mang, because the shot Liu Mang is good at is the three-pointer after the pick-and-roll. He can also shoot other shots, but they are not so stable. After all, the bonus of the pick-and-roll master is completely a bug.
But this time Carter didn't stick to him at all, so he could only use his own shooting ability to shoot. Of course, he couldn't score every time.
However, the Hawks now really have a lineup advantage over the Raptors. Muhammad grabbed a defensive rebound and then saw Liu Mang moving to a 45-degree angle and immediately threw it away.
The most criticized thing about Carter's defensive end is that he can't mark people!
Seeing no one in front of him, Liu Mang rushed to the three-point line, received the ball and drove inside.
There was no one to stop him! Liu Mang went straight to the edge of the three-second zone.
Raptors power forward Keown Clark, who is seven feet tall but weighs only 98 kilograms, can only save.
Liu Mang took the initiative and hit the arm of Keane Clark who was jumping out.
The referee's whistle blew! Not to mention, apart from the weight difference, Liu Mang and Keen Clark were really about the same strength. Liu Mang took advantage of the situation and threw his big hook upwards from the outside towards the basket.
Shooting foul!
The scene suddenly burst into boos!
But it’s not over yet!
The ball Liu Mang threw blindly towards the basket unexpectedly hit the backboard and bounced towards the basket. It rolled around the basket twice and then fell in!
twenty one!
The boos at the scene became even louder!
Who is the Hawks player who has made the most news this season?
It's Liu Mang! And there are all kinds of "negative" news, and everyone is calling him shameless.
Here we go again! It’s clear that the purpose of rushing to the basket is to draw a foul, and the shot that goes in is purely due to luck.
The first time he used this move in an away game, Liu Mang finally felt the feeling of being booed wherever Brother Deng went.
Facing such a dense crowd of boos for the first time, Liu Mang was a little distracted, but the voice in his mind sobered him up.
"Ding... Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Toronto fans' disgust achievement, which rewards the hooligan with 3000 points."
"...I mean, the system, the rogue value is that the more people I make hate me, the more rewards I will receive?" Liu Mang expressed his annoyance.
"The host's misunderstanding is to make your opponents think that the more troublesome and difficult you are, or even become their invincible opponent, just like Jordan in basketball, the more hooligan points you will gain."
Listen to your nonsense!
Liu Mang ignored this and concentrated on free throws.
For a pretty good pitcher, the free throws are still very stable. Liu Mang made the extra free throw and scored 2-1!
After completing the three-pointer, Liu Mang returned to the Eagles' half-court defense.
Still unable to prevent it, Carter rushed to the inside again. This time Muhammad rushed forward very fiercely and hugged Carter as he took off, sending Carter to the free throw line.
Clay figures are also angry!
Carter had five or six dunks before the first quarter was over. Although he only succeeded in one dunk, one was enough to rank among the top ten or even the top dunk of the season!
Besides, Muhammad is not a good person to begin with, of course, when it comes to playing basketball.
Seeing that Liu Mang was passed by one step twice, mainly because of his physical disadvantages, Eagles assistant coach Mike Woodson said to Coach Kruger: "Lang, please replace Ace. He is too thin and defensive."
No Carter.”
Liu Mang would definitely be shocked if he saw Mike Woodson, but he didn't know the names of his assistant coaches at all. Mike Woodson still had hair at this time, but later the Mediterranean Sea had arrived in the city and occupied the countryside.
The Knicks head coach who had to shave his head.
The characteristic of Mike Woodson's coaching is that except for the core, anyone can become a hindrance. The most amazing thing about his coaching is that no matter what the lineup is, no matter what the record is, his team's average points per game are lower than those of the opponents they face.
It is indeed not easy to average a high score per game.
"None of us can guard Carter, but three points are always more than two points." Coach Kruger did not accept Mike Woodson's suggestion.
Three points are always more than two points? What is the truth?
Mike Woodson's idol is Larry Brown, and he obviously cannot understand the idea of a modern basketball head coach coming out of a college.
But the situation on the field is obviously still controlled by the Eagles.
Since Carter is guarding Liu Mang, he either takes a step back or presses forward. When he takes a step back, Liu Mang shoots directly. He has the advantage of rebounding inside. If he scores, he will score. If he doesn't, there is a high chance that the Eagles will score.
Can also grab rebounds.
As for Jason Terry, he is in despair. Since he is the only star on the Eagles court, he is enjoying the treatment of being bypassed without the ball. When he gets the ball, he is double-teamed, so Liu Mang can play very freely.
.
When Carter couldn't hold back his face and came up to defend, Liu Mang and Muhammad started to cooperate in the pick-and-roll. Liu Mang's three-pointers were more accurate, and he became extremely sharp when cutting to the basket. He rushed in and caused an inside foul.
.
After playing so many games, Liu Mang also felt that the power brought by the bench gangsters seemed much greater than his improved comprehensive basketball ability value! The main factors that affect Liu Mang's comprehensive ability value are defense and strength confrontation, as well as mid-range shooting and basket shooting.
His finishing ability and so on, but Liu Mang is very smart and uses his only two advantages, speed and shooting, to play repeatedly. When facing the opponent's second lineup, it is unlikely that any opponent will deliberately use the best defense.
Players come to guard him. The key is that many teams do not have such a character. Liu Mang plays very aggressively! He can make a difference when he comes up!
Although he can't even hinder Carter's breakthrough, Carter is not just a first-class player like Francis, he is a superstar!
However, Carter couldn't guard against Liu Mang!
