The day before the game between the Hawks and the Nets, the Nets had already arrived in Atlanta. The atmosphere of fans in Atlanta became more and more fanatical. The most hostile and hated enemy of Atlanta fans now is the Nets.

Losing to the Nets in the playoffs in the previous two years, and being only one victory away from reaching the finals, has made Eagles fans very upset. No matter what the media and fans elsewhere say, Eagles fans will always be there.

He is the one who supports his own team the most.

The last away game against the Nets gave Hawks fans greater expectations and greater obsession with defeating the Nets.

Yesterday, the Hawks had a day off after returning to Atlanta. Of course, Liu Mang and Jason Terry did not rest. One took the initiative to practice extra practice and the other took penalty practice. Of course, the Eagles coaching staff also did not take a rest. Other opponents were practicing regularly.

You don’t have to work so hard in the game, but the coaching staff of the Nets and Hawks basically didn’t sleep last night. They were meeting to study the tactics for the Nets. They must be fully prepared and strive to defeat the Nets in every game of the regular season.

Defeat and prepare to meet the Nets again in the playoffs.

The Eagles will definitely strive to get all the home court advantages in the regular season this year, and their goal is to be first in the league in the regular season.

Judging from the Nets' past regular season record and the current situation in the Eastern Conference, the Nets may eventually enter the playoffs as third or fourth in the Eastern Conference. The strong strength shown by the Pacers at the beginning puts them in the third place.

They are second in the Eastern Conference behind the Hawks, and their head coach is Coach Carlisle, the outstanding coach who competed with Coach Krueger for the best coach in his rookie season. With such a solid start, the Pacers are likely to maintain their success.

Then the only thing the Nets can shake is the Pistons, and the Eagles must be prepared to play the Nets in the second round or the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Eagles coaching staff needs to increase the confidence of the players. The best way is to be fully prepared to have an advantage against the Nets in the regular season and establish a psychological advantage to prevent them from failing in the playoffs in the previous two years.

The loss to the Nets put pressure on the players when they met the Nets in the playoffs.

After a day's rest, the Hawks began to train specifically for the offensive and defensive tactics the Nets showed in their last game against the Nets.

The Nets are also preparing for the game against the Hawks after arriving in Atlanta.

Both teams want to establish a psychological advantage, so both teams are fully preparing for the next game.

…

The Eagles are working hard to achieve their season goals, some big or small things have happened in the league, and some trade rumors have begun to circulate.

First of all, the Magic, which has lost nine games in a row at the beginning, announced the firing of Doc Rivers!

When the Magic had lost six games in a row, McGrady said that the head coach would only say "come on, be patient" and that there was nothing he could do if he encountered difficulties in the game. Yesterday, after the Magic suffered a nine-game losing streak, McGrady couldn't stand it anymore. He publicly

He said he no longer wants to play for the Magic and has applied to the team for a trade.

Drew Gooden also expressed his dissatisfaction with the team. He felt that he should have enough opportunities to perform, but the head coach had inexplicable trust in some veterans. After playing two or three games, Drew Gooden was sent to the bench.

, two veterans, Juwan Howard and Andrew De Klerk, have always occupied the position, which made Drew Gooden quite dissatisfied and also applied for a trade.

In order to appease the players, the Magic announced the firing of Doc Rivers and appointed assistant coach John Davis as the interim head coach.

Doc Rivers became the first coach to be fired this season.

On the same day, the first transaction after the start of the season also started.

The Raptors reached a deal with the Bulls, using Antonio Davis, Jerome Williams, Corey Blount and other interior players to reach a deal with the Bulls, and got Donyel Marshall and Jaylen from the Bulls.

-Ross.

The Bulls continue to weaken their own strength, and the purpose seems to be to continue to be in trouble. They are now ranked tenth in the Eastern Conference with 3 wins and 7 losses.

They were all given away. Although the five-year, 65 million contract Antonio Davis signed with the Raptors after being selected as an All-Star in 2001 has become a garbage contract, the Bulls can use him to teach Curry and Chandler.

The young player is also good at defense.

For the Raptors, this transaction has completely corrected Milicic, allowing Milicic to return to his best center position, and paired with Marshall, a pitching forward, the Raptors are determined to completely rebuild around Milicic.

Already.

…

The Magic's firing of Rivers is not a big deal. After the Magic lost six games in a row, the media in Orlando began to spread rumors that Rivers' coaching position was unstable.

Orlando fans are also famous for being impersonal. When Rivers won the Best Coach Award, local fans said that their team had its own Cardinal. After Tracy McGrady played, they said that they had their own superstar.

After the N-game losing streak at the beginning of this year, Orlando fans have already started shouting to fire Rivers and trade Tracy McGrady.

The Magic's management is inexplicably very concerned about what the fans say. They will fire him if they say they want to fire him, and if they say they want to trade McGrady, they have already started selling McGrady, but they haven't received the ideal offer yet.

But the Raptors' trade surprised people.

The Eagles' team training in the afternoon has ended. They are resting together and continuing to train. Some of them are reading the news with their laptops. Seeing these two news, especially the Raptors trade, is very disturbing.

People are surprised.

"Ace, are the Raptors trying to get rid of Carter? What do they think?" Rahim could see the problem with the Raptors' trade.

Jaylen Rose is a standard player who cannot play well without the ball. His ability is average, but his ball holding rate is similar to that of Kobe and McGrady. He also has a 6-year, 80 million contract. The Raptors will definitely trade him.

It's impossible to keep it idle, so Carter, whose ball rights have already declined, will definitely see his ball rights decline further.

Maybe Carter will propose a trade himself.

But after Carter's possession of the ball declines, his data will also decline, and the transaction value will also decline as a result. What are the Raptors trying to do? Such a star who has proven his strength will just give up if he wants to give up? Rahim doesn't understand.

Not only Raheem, but also the entire league did not understand what the Raptors were doing. Milicic wanted to train Milicic with all his strength. This was expected by everyone, but trading Jalen Rose to hinder Carter's performance, everyone

Didn't even understand.

Liu Mang didn't understand either, but there are always managements in the league who are hard-headed. He has long been used to it, and casually replied: "Maybe the Raptors management likes to listen to rap songs, so they traded Jaylen.

, but we also have Jaylen on our team.”

"...???" Rahim was confused. What does Jaylen Rose have to do with rap music? And when did Liu Mang and Jaylen Brown have such a good relationship? They all call each other by their first names? Unless they are good friends.

Chatting, otherwise Americans usually call each other by surname. The most important thing is, when did our team have a player named Jaylen?

…

…

On the morning of the game against the Nets, Liu Mang was about to send Dinah and Alexia to school. They were all going to watch the Nets game again tonight. To be honest, Liu Mang was the most die-hard.

There are probably only three fans in the family.

After Liu Mang came home last night, Dinah insisted that Liu Mang send her to school. She said that Liu Mang hadn't sent her to school for a long time, and Liu Mang couldn't bear it, but giving her one was getting better and better.

It would be more honorable for the cute little loli to go to school, so Liu Mang agreed.

But when I was about to go out after breakfast, the doorbell rang.

"Who! Hate it!" Dinah felt something was wrong. It was rare for her uncle to send her to school, and she felt like she was going to be disrupted!

Hearing Dinah's dissatisfied complaints, Alexia patted Dinah's little head and went to answer the phone connected to the door.

Alexia said a few words to the phone, and then pressed the door switch.

"Ace, Boozer came to see you for something. I took Dinah to school first?" Alexia opened the door and returned to the restaurant and said to Liu Mang. Her teammates came to visit early in the morning. Something must have happened. Although she

She also wanted Liu Mang to send her to work, but Liu Mang's matters were more important.

Dinah's bad premonition came true, and she was very dissatisfied: "It's really annoying to disturb me so early in the morning!"

"Dina, be polite!" Liu Mang pinched Dinah's dissatisfied little face and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll pick you up in the afternoon!"

Alexia also came and pinched Dinah's face: "Don't delay your uncle's work. Didn't Dinah say that she has grown up?"

"Humph! The uncle and the teacher know how to bully Dinah! They all like to bully Dinah," Dinah felt as if her face was about to be pinched into a ball, "Let go! The uncle and the teacher are both bad guys..."

After Dinah emphasized several times that Liu Mang must not forget to pick her up, Alexia took Dinah away, who was rubbing her red face. After a while, she finished breakfast and went upstairs to change.

Levia came down from the stairs with her clothes on.

"Ace, who's here?" Levia heard the movement just now and asked.

Before Liu Mang could answer, Boozer just parked his car and walked in. Liu Mang pointed at Boozer.

"Hi, Ace, Levia." Boozer greeted.

"It's Carlos, I'll make tea for you, Ace, you want milk, right? Carlos, do you want coffee or black tea?" It's time for Levia to show off her tea skills.

"Black tea, thank you." Boozer was much more polite than he looked.

After Levia responded and went to the kitchen, Boozer was a little confused: "Ace, why is Dinah looking at me strangely today? I don't think I forgot to give her a red envelope in the training camp, right?"

Liu Mang saw Boozer's confused look and said, "Maybe... I feel a little uncomfortable seeing you Carlos so early in the morning."

"..." Boozer knew that the little boss was making fun of his appearance again.

But this was born to his mother, and there was nothing Boozer could do about it! He happened to be born near the overseas base of the German U.S. military. Everything was such a coincidence, and he was helpless!

After making fun of Boozer, Liu Mang smiled and said: "Okay, no more joking, have you had breakfast..." Seeing Boozer shake his head honestly, Liu Mang shouted to the kitchen: "Levia

, bring out some snacks for Carlos."

After greeting Boozer, Liu Mang looked at Boozer who seemed to feel a little heavy after making a joke, and asked curiously: "Carlos, what's wrong? You come to my house so early with a sad face."

At this time, Levia took out the snacks first, and Boozer smiled politely to express his gratitude, and then said: "Ace, have you heard the news?"

"News?" Liu Mang thought for a moment. During breakfast just now, he saw a lot of rumors about the league in the newspaper recently. "Carlos, are you talking about those trade rumors?"

Boozer nodded.

Liu Mang understood that Boozer was worried about gains and losses, so he came to chat with him.

The trade between the Raptors and the Bulls kicked off the league's transactions this season. The trade deadline this season is February 24th. Because this year's strong teams are too strong and weak teams are too weak, especially in the Eastern Conference, there have been

It shows a tendency for teams in the playoffs to have less than 50%, so teams that feel that their teams have no chance of making the playoffs this year have already begun to completely mess up.
