Liu Mang obviously strengthened his personal offensive desire today. In the first three games, Liu Mang chose to pass the ball more, but today he chose to shoot more by himself.

The Hornets also gave face. They tried to maintain the attitude of a strong team until the end. Every time the Eagles almost completely widened the point difference, Hornets head coach Tim Fried would make adjustments.

The Hornets' three major perimeter players are indeed very strong, and they will respond positively every time they adjust. No matter how loud Baron Davis yells, he will still come up once or twice to contain the Eagles' defense, and then immediately

Just do it with Shiben and David Wesley.

But after a few moments, the Eagles' defense tightened up, and the Hornets could only manage to keep the point difference from widening. When one or two of the Hornets' three major perimeter players dropped, the Eagles' rotation showed its power.

Already.

Liu Mang and Baron Davis are about the same strength, but Liu Mang has a better brain, and he is not stingy in his play. He will attack when he needs to. He is not afraid of confrontation when he is thin, not to mention that he is now considered a first-class confrontation among point guards.

Well, it's incomparable to Francis and Baron Davis, and he won't suffer against Marbury.

The most important thing is that with strong teammates, you can do whatever you want! Liu Mang completely suppressed Baron Davis on the scene. In the fourth quarter, the Hornets couldn't stand it any longer. The Eagles reorganized their lineup and the Hornets

The three major outsiders there had been struggling to play in the first three quarters. In the fourth quarter, the Eagles widened the point difference in one fell swoop. When the official timeout came in the fourth quarter, the Eagles led 89 to 67, opening the point difference to 22.

point.

The Hornets had no way to declare surrender. With only 5 minutes left, it was basically impossible to chase 22 points.

In the end, the Eagles defeated the Hornets 101-84 and won their fourth consecutive victory.

Liu Mang played 33 minutes, making 13 of 26 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, 8 of 10 free throws, and scored 37 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists!

Baron Davis made 8 of 22 shots. Although he made 3 three-pointers, he took 11 three-pointers. The most important thing is that he only committed two fouls in the entire game after playing 41 minutes.

He only made two hits, which wasted on such a strong body. In addition to assists, his scoring and rebounds were crushed by Liu Mang, who scored 21 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists.

Liu Mang won the battle with Baron Davis!

…

After beating the Hornets, the Hawks rushed to Seattle overnight and started a back-to-back game with the SuperSonics at 7 p.m. the next day.

In the past summer, the SuperSonics used the brand name of the new version of the Three Musketeers to talk to top point guards everywhere, but none of their stars could catch up with them. Kidd didn't even go to the Spurs, leaving behind the team that had just reached the finals for two consecutive years.

The team went to a non-playoff team with an uncertain future? Even Cassel looked down on them and went to get tired of the Wolf King.

Not to mention these two top free agent point guards, they didn't even get a point guard of the next level. In the end, they only signed former Spurs backup point guard Antonio Daniels, the parallel No. 4 pick in 1997.

It took him 5 years to reach the full middle class, otherwise he would not be able to get it. He wants to go back to the Spurs and cling to the lap of his big brother Duncan and win the championship again. He doesn't care that he was traded away by the Spurs in the summer of 2002 and missed out on winning the championship.

The matter of the season championship.

As a result, the Sonics can only point to Brent Barry to organize the offense. Brent Barry was not originally a point guard, but in the past two years he has been forced to become a point guard.

Lunt Barry's performance was average. He averaged a career-high five points and a few assists per game last season, but he made 2.4 turnovers. His assist-to-turnover ratio was almost 2 to 1. That is, if he sends two assists, he has to return one.

Go back by mistake.

Ray Allen, who had originally planned to develop as a pitcher, after failing to introduce a good point guard, also picked up the task of organizing offense again, and it was even worse than Brent Barry, averaging 4 per game.

Assists 2.8 turnovers.

It’s no wonder that Ray Allen’s offensive organization has deteriorated. After arriving in the SuperSonics last season, it was the SuperSonics management and head coach McMillan who made him determined to completely transform. In the summer, he was also very confident that he could at least bring Cassel to the next level.

After all, they have been teammates for many years, so they did not develop in the direction of all-around. They only practiced running and three-pointers. Who knew that the expected star point guard did not come, and he had partnered with Cassel a few years ago.

At that time, I had already started to transform into a pitcher, and now it is too difficult to pick it up again.

What hurts the SuperSonics the most is their highly publicized potential power forward. Radmanovic, regarded by the team as one of the new three Musketeers, has made extremely slow progress. He has not even played last season since the start of this year.

Well done. From the start to now, I have averaged five or six three-pointers per game, but I have only scored one three-pointer in the four games combined. I am completely different from the big pitcher who looked promising last season. He is completely different from that big shooter.

It's even more incomparable to a talented shooter who shot 42% from three-point range in his rookie season.

For the Sonics, when they fielded a lineup of Barry, Ray Allen, Lewis, and Radmanovic, those who listened to the rebounds were sad and those who saw them shed tears. Defensive rebounds can still rely on blocking, and offensive rebounds are basically

It means no. In the past four games, the rebounding leader is Lewis, who averaged 5.5 rebounds per game...

Although the Hawks are playing a back-to-back with neither Ratliff nor Stockton playing, they don't have the same physical problems as last season when playing back-to-back. The lineup is too deep.

Mainly because of Liu Mang, he does not have the problem of insufficient physical strength. When other teammates have no physical crisis and can play as usual, Liu Mang can play the same role as usual, guarding the SuperSonics who basically have no inside offense.

On the team, although Kwame Brown is still young, his inside role is the same as Ratliff's, or even better. He can defend pick-and-rolls.

Ray Allen and Lewis shot desperately. These two were really accurate. Ray Allen made 5 of 9 three-pointers and scored 33 points. Lewis scored 32 points on 4 of 9 three-pointers. The two scored 65 points together.

points, but the others were so tough that you couldn't help but watch. The Sonics, a team with such a fast pace, took more than 90 shots in this game, and the others only scored 25 points combined.

The Eagles are also willing to play on the run, avoiding the touch problems caused by back-to-backs, and constantly attacking the basket. Under the leadership of Liu Mang, the Eagles and the SuperSonics started an offensive battle, guarding the paint and allowing the SuperSonics to shoot from the outside.

, and at the same time, it also put a lot of defensive pressure on the SuperSonics outside.

In the end, under the leadership of Liu Mang, the Eagles defeated the SuperSonics 103-90 and won their fifth consecutive victory.

Liu Mang's shooting percentage was extremely high today. Neither Ray Allen nor Barry is a particularly good defensive player. Liu Mang shot a super-high 14-for-19 shooting rate and scored 35 points and 9 assists.

A little 30 10, but got 30 for the second consecutive game!

…

After the Hawks won five consecutive victories, the road trip continued. On November 10, they came to Chicago to challenge the Bulls away from home.

The Bulls, of course, have to fail. Winning the God of Basketball has cost them decades of luck. The No. 2 pick in 2002 is gone.

Although Kirk Hinrich, an extremely powerful point guard from college, was selected in the 2003 generation, he was not as powerful as expected.

Although it is not as good as their second pick last season, it is not much better. Hinrich is very stable, not like a rookie, but the Bulls are not a championship team, nor are they even at the playoff level.

In this team, Hinrich is stable at every point and can defend every point, but it is useless. Everyone else is a defensive sieve. Tyson Chandler, the only center who can defend well, had surgery before the start of the season and scored at least three points.

I just came back in a month.

In today's game, Hinrich did a good job of restricting Liu Mang. He prevented Liu Mang from making 13 of 33 shots, but he couldn't guard anyone else, and he couldn't even get rebounds.

Liu Mang also shot well. No matter how good his defense was, he would waste his time when he should. His own rebounds exploded today!

After Kwame Brown came off the bench, facing his old high school rival Eddie Curry, who had ridiculed him so much in the past two years, Kwame Brown played the best game of his career so far.

After the official timeout of Ratliff in the first quarter, Ratliff was not replaced again, because Kwame Brown got 8 rebounds in the last five minutes of the first quarter, and all Liu Manglang's shots were missed.

Kwame Brown is on the bench.

Kwame Brown grabbed the ball so well, and Liu Mang played even more wastefully. He threw 33 times in 31 minutes of playing time, made 6 of 15 three-pointers, and scored 40 points, 4 assists and 2 rebounds, his first 40 points this season!

Kwame Brown came off the bench and played 39 minutes, scoring 22 points and 20 rebounds for the first time in his career. He also grabbed offensive rebounds and passed them to Liu Mang and Jason Terry, getting 6 assists.

He gave Eddie Curry three blocks, 22 points, 20 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks. In addition, he worked hard on the defensive end with Eddie Curry, allowing Raheem and Rasheed Wallace to wait.

He grabbed defensive rebounds and defended Eddie Curry, who originally had no desire for rebounds, to only 12 points and 3 rebounds.

After entering the NBA, Kwame Brown had an advantage against his former teammate Eddie Curry for the first time!

Because Kwame Brown was so active, the Eagles didn't have much grudge against the Bulls. Even the only one who made Liu Mang unhappy was Jay Williams. The Eagles wanted to easily defeat the opponent, but

The feud between Kwame Brown and Eddie Curry has continued from high school to the present. Since it is the hatred of teammates, of course they have to fight for face. The offensive end is mediocre, and the whole team plays desperate defense.

As a result, the Bulls suffered a bloody massacre with a 42-point difference at home, 57-99!

Six consecutive wins!

The Eagles are off to a fierce start!
Chapter completed!
