628. Rival Pacers

After the game, looking at Andre Miller who scored 43 points, Liu Mang felt dissatisfied.

But it is indeed quite powerful to deal with. First of all, Liu Mang admires him for having a face as good as a city wall, and secondly, Andre Miller, who is at his peak at the age of 28, is indeed very powerful!

But Liu Mang couldn't hold back his face and spent time trying to gain points with his opponent.

But Liu Mang was very curious, why didn't Anthony perform well? Just watching himself and Andre Miller compete.

It wasn't until the news interview after the game came out that Liu Mang had a little understanding of Anthony's character.

After the game, a reporter asked Anthony what he thought of Liu Mang. Anthony responded like this: "Ace is a great leader, he is the top scorer, and the matchup between him and Andre was really great.

Yeah, I really like watching this kind of matchup between top point guards. I know what a great leader Andre is, but Ace is a candidate for the scoring title. My goal is to be as good as Ace one day."

Liu Mang didn't expect that Anthony's heart was so different, but these words reminded Liu Mang of the 2013 All-Star Weekend, when Kobe and James faced off one-on-one, and Wade and Durant came out to steal the show.

, Anthony, the super perimeter player on the court, was watching with a smile.

Although Anthony's ability evaluation of 84 in his rookie year was close to that of a first-class star, which was the strongest in the 2003 generation's rookie season, he is comparable to Andre Miller and Liu Mang, who had an ability evaluation of 88 and were at the level of assist kings.

There is still a gap between the top stars, so I just watch the show from the side.

Although Anthony has the highest potential of the Nuggets team and is the only player who may become an All-Star, it is actually Andre Miller, a mature fifth-year player, who helps the Nuggets enter the playoffs.

Then, the part where Liu Mang conquered Anthony, one of the representative figures of the 03 generation, was completed.

At this point, Anthony, Bosh, Milicic and Hinrich, the representatives of the 2003 generation, have been eliminated, leaving only Wade and James, who have the most demanding personalities.

By conquering Anthony and Bosh so easily, Liu Mang felt that his understanding of some aspects had gone awry, and he had underestimated his influence in recent years!

Liu Mang realized that he was already a prominent figure in the league. Many rookies who had just entered the NBA originally regarded themselves as opponents that they could not defeat at least in a short period of time. Some rookies strive for themselves as their goals, and some rookies even

I never thought I could compare with myself.

Therefore, except for Wade and James, who are very representative in the big draft years and are very representative in an era, most rookies only need to show their abilities. If the opponent fails to compete, there will be no confrontation.

Heartbroken.

In every rookie class, there are at most one or two who have the competitive spirit to compete with the top players who have become famous in the league from the beginning. Most of them think about their future ability to compete with the top players. Anthony is the one.

the latter.

The Hawks players were all regretful that they could not beat Anthony, and Liu Mang was also regretful. He originally thought that a group of people would kill Xiaogua in the paint!





At the Apolikina Hotel in downtown Indianapolis, the Eagles rented out a 29-room floor with a lobby. After the Eagles players arrived at the hotel, they had the afternoon off and did rounds at 9 p.m. Some players

Get ready to go out for a bit of fun. Now the Eagles have extremely strict management of away games, so Jason Terry has to spend money to treat him to a bit of fun in the afternoon.

Who told him to do it on his own and help Kardashian get rid of her name? However, Kardashian has not yet made a video and it has become popular, and Jason Terry has not yet become the worst one.

Liu Mang still hasn't gone out to fool around. He still can't accept the corrupt culture of Europeans and Americans. Just like Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, who have played in the United States for so many years and haven't even had a single scandal. He was influenced by domestic traditional culture for more than 20 years in his previous life.

It's not something that can be changed in two or three years of adulthood.

But Liu Mang felt that there was nothing wrong with this, as long as he got used to it.

But what surprised Liu Mang was that when Jason Terry invited some of his best teammates to go play, Rahim refused! Also refusing was Rasheed Walai, who was reading a book.

scholar.

"Sharif, how about meeting Artest again soon? Are you excited?" Liu Mang walked up to Rahim who was watching the Pacers video and studying the opponent's play style.

"If you're not excited, Ace, you deal with him." Rahim denied directly.

"Don't, he already said that he is very excited to meet you, how can you not be excited! Of course, such a great opponent must be left to you to deal with!" Liu Mang joked.

"No, no, no, I'm just a defensive player." Rahim refused to fight with the muscular man again. It seemed that he was a little immobile this year.

"Then you have to see if Artest believes it..." Liu Mang looked at Rahim, who said no, but had been studying Artest's offensive and defensive video clips. He didn't believe that this guy was interested in Artest.

There is no interest in Test's duel.

"Alas..." Rahim sighed, "I just want to be an ordinary small forward in the league. Why do so many people want to beat me? Is it a mistake to be too good?"

After hearing what Raheem said, Jason Terry, who was about to go out to have fun, grabbed a pillow and threw it towards Raheem. Even his teammates felt too much after hearing what Raheem said.

Shameless!

Rahim and Liu Mang had been together for a long time, and Liu Mang's appeal was so strong that Rahim became shameless without even realizing it.

After playing their last eight consecutive home games against the Nuggets, the Hawks took a day off in Atlanta, and then went to Indianapolis on December 30 to begin a month-long back-to-back road trip, with a walk-off game on the last day of 2003.

The author, on the first day of playing against the Nets in 2004.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! After the Hawks came to Indianapolis, the warm-up for the game between the Hawks and the Pacers, two teams competing for first place in the Eastern Conference in the regular season, has begun.

The Pacers are one of the most surprising teams this season. O'Neal Jr. and Artest have finally made a real name for themselves under coach Carlisle. O'Neal Jr. has become the number one power forward in the Eastern Conference.

With a good reputation, Artest even has the reputation of being the best defensive player in the league.

Before the game against the Hawks, Artest launched an early challenge to Raheem, who was considered the league's No. 1 small forward after Mashburn.

As both a top small forward, Artest wants to beat anyone, especially the best player at his position.

At the end of the 1990s, Mashburn had the title of the league's number one small forward, and was even more popular than Pippen. McGrady, Carter and others tended to be defenders, and were actually swingmen. Compared with Mashburn,

Pure small forwards are very different. Even Tracy McGrady admits that Marsh is the number one small forward in the league. In the past two years, after Raheem stood up, the two best small forwards in the league in the eyes of fans and media are Marsh.

Ben and Raheem.

As for James and Anthony, they are still young and do not have the strength to compete with Raheem for the time being.

Now that Mashburn has retired, Raheem has naturally become the number one small forward in the league. Artest has had a history of confrontation with Raheem, and now Artest regards Raheem as his biggest opponent.

Raheem said no but kept silently preparing for the game with Artest.

Liu Mang was driven away by Rahim and had no choice but to talk to Rasheed Wallace.

"Rashid, what are you reading?" Liu Mang looked at Rasheed Wallace who was actually reading and asked curiously.

Rasheed Wallace showed the cover to Liu Mang and said: "I am studying Taoist classical literature, and I want to find out how to control my heart, prevent myself from being affected by external affairs, and make myself more capable.

Close to the realm of unity between man and nature..."

Liu Mang felt very relieved when he saw that Rasheed Wallace finally bought the English version of the book "Tao Te Ching". However, Liu Mang did not understand what Rasheed Wallace was trying to express: "

Rashid, speak human language!”

"I want to be quiet, lest I can't help but beat O'Neal to death tomorrow. I took care of him so much back then and felt like I was blind!" Rasheed Wallace said with such force that the book was deformed.

Liu Mang expressed his condolences to O'Neal Jr. Who told this guy to say in an interview with Artest that he was the best power forward in the league? He didn't take his big brother seriously at all. O'Neal was pioneering the game back then.

The former was Rasheed Wallace's substitute, and now he directly ignores Rasheed Wallace and claims to be the league's number one power forward.

Seeing how "friendly" Raheem and Rasheed Wallace, the two guys nicknamed as the cheerleading front team in China, Liu Mang felt that his team was really great.

But Liu Mang didn't dare to be careless when beating the Pacers!

Liu Mang thought about Tinsley, whom he would face tomorrow, and Reggie Miller, whom Prince would face. He felt that Ratliff was so lucky. He only played four games in a year. Except for Duncan and O'Neal, there were no other opponents.

Ratliff can play health-care ball, just block shots at the basket and threaten. Comparing people with each other is very annoying.

The Pacers' lineup is really great, with Tinsley, Reggie Miller, Artest, and O'Neal Jr., the four players are quite complementary. Tinsley is fast, has strong breakthrough ability, and his defense is getting better and better.

At the same time, the passing is top-notch; Reggie Miller is still a huge threat when he does not occupy the ball; Artest's low post strength and the defensive ability that may not be the best in the league, O'Neal is good at both offense and defense, and can also make a mid-range shot.

To open up space, even the worst center position has three pure coolies. The lineup is indeed strong. After removing the seal of Isaiah Thomas, coach Carlisle came and directly activated this lineup, becoming the only one in the league.

A team that competes with the Eagles for the regular season championship.
