724. Return to Madison(1/2)

April 21st is the fourth game day of this season’s playoffs.

Seeing Chris Webber score 17 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists to defeat Nowitzki who had 31 points and 10 rebounds, the Kings cleanly defeated the Mavericks 93-81.

Seeing Duncan's evil smile appear in the game and getting a technical foul, he gave his sister-in-law five blocks in a single game. The entire Grizzlies team only scored 70 points, and the Spurs crushed the Grizzlies 92-70.

Seeing that the Pistons scored 112 points in a single game, Bosh, Hamilton, Stephen Jackson, and Billups scored 90 points together, beating the Hornets led by Baron Davis to death 112 to 81.

Yes, the Hornets, who could compete with the Pistons in the first game, held the Hornets at bay after Larry Brown strengthened his defense.

Seven-round series, all 2-0!

The entire first round was a complete crushing situation!

After watching the first seven games, the fans saw that the last game was the Hawks playing the Knicks. The Hawks won twice as many games as the Knicks. The fans were not very interested and they completely crushed the game.

The league is also heartbroken, working hard to adjust the schedule, helping many teams that do not have their own arenas to rent other people's arenas to negotiate with the arena owners to adjust the lease contracts, and communicate with the local government departments of the teams about security and season tickets.

Pre-sales, etc... Adjusting the schedule is never about saying a word, just giving a notice. It involves all aspects. Changes in the schedule have a great impact on the entire American sports world. It affects the whole body. Every time the league has to adjust

The schedule is a big deal.

But after so much busyness, the result was a collective 2-0 in the first round this year...

It seems that there is a possibility of 4-2 at most, and there is a high probability that many series will only be 4-1 or even swept...

At 8:30 in the evening, there were two national live broadcasts today, and the poor Spurs and Pistons were ignored again. The first one was the national live broadcast between the Kings and Mavericks, and the second one was the last game of the day between the Hawks and the Knicks.

team game.

In view of the fact that Mutombo basically did not contribute in the last game, he scored 3 points and 3 rebounds. The only goal he scored was Anfernee Hardaway's assist at the beginning. He grabbed an offensive rebound and caused a foul and only made one of two free throws.

He didn't contribute much, and he only played 24 minutes. Mutombo is indeed old, and his combat effectiveness can no longer be activated in the playoffs. He still has a one-year contract, which is considered a waste.

Coach Wilkens brought back Vin Baker today, along with Marbury, Anfernee Hardaway, Shanton Anderson, and Kurt Thomas.

The Eagles still have the full lineup of Liu Mang, Prince, Raheem, Rasheed Wallace, and Ratliff.

The ratings for this Eagles game are quite good. Many people have pre-purchased all the live broadcasts of the Eagles playoffs in advance. Since money has been spent, it would be a waste not to watch it, since it is late at night anyway.

The fans did not have high hopes. The ESPN commentators who broadcast the game were teasing whether there would be a sweep in the first round this year, which would really make history.

Who knew that the Knicks would explode at the beginning of today's game!

Kurt Thomas beats Rasheed Wallace to win the jump ball!

Liu Mang didn't expect Rasheed Wallace to miss the jump ball, so he immediately went up to defend Marbury. Marbury faced Liu Mang's defense and hit a three-pointer at the beginning!

The Knicks, who were beaten to a psychological collapse in the last game, are in a state of shock today!

Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway scored 4 consecutive three-pointers in the opening game! They beat the Hawks 12-4 in the opening game!

Even Liu Mang was stunned!

Who knew these two guys would explode when they came up!

Seeing that he couldn't stop the Knicks backcourt combination, after playing for a few minutes, coach Kruger simply sent Jason Terry and Liu Mang to partner in the backcourt to fight waves!

However, Liu Mang and Jason Terry's regular wave play could not beat the peerless wave play of Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway in the first quarter. The two just threw and missed.

The more you throw, the merrier!

Throughout the first quarter, Liu Mang, Prince, and Jason Terry were shot in the face by Anfernee Hardaway and Marbury in turn. A lone wolf broke through the jar, and a penny who had already "seen through the world" was originally

Don’t care so much about whether your data is solid, just have fun. The two led the Knicks to lead the Hawks by 9 points 34 to 25 in the first quarter! The Hawks scored 25 points in a single quarter, which is not too bad, but the Knicks actually scored

It’s 34 minutes!

Today, Liu Mang initially prepared to practice some turn-over jump shots. He used games to practice, and the efficiency was pretty good. He broke through to the mid-range and relied on Shanton Anderson to make 3-of-5 turn-over jump shots in a single quarter. Liu Mang also made 3 of 5 in a single quarter.

After scoring 10 points, Jason Terry also made a mid-range shot and a three-pointer, but he couldn't hold off Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway, who both scored in double figures in a single quarter!

Fortunately, in the second quarter, coach Kruger sent out Liu Mang, Stockton, and Boozer, coupled with Prince and Rasheed Wallace, and directly launched the offensive team's play style.

Start chasing points from the offensive end.

Since you can't defend yourself against two explosive waves, then use offense to deal with Biao!

Liu Mang's running to catch and shoot without the ball is now even more powerful. After running out of position and throwing the ball, he throws it out before the opponent's defender can reach him. It seems that it is only a tenth of a second faster, but the rhythm of the entire game

Everything has become faster!

There are also Boozer's pick-and-roll cuts and mid-range shots, Prince and Rasheed Wallace's open three-pointers...

When the Eagles' offense became fierce, the pressure on the Knicks came.

No matter how many points the Knicks scored, no matter how fiercely Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway broke out today, the Hawks clung to the score and did not let the score open to more than ten points.

This is too much pressure for the Knicks players who have little confidence in their own abilities!

Just like Fujiwara Takumi's opponents in Initial D, they can always see the AE86 in the rearview mirror, and that AE86 is the god-like team at this stage, seeming to surpass itself anytime and anywhere.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This pressure continues to spread in the hearts of Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway.

Liu Mang, on the other hand, was stunned after being beaten by the opponent. He did not rush, but played steadily and took his time. When he needed to move, he would hit the ball. When he needed to hit, he hit singles. When he needed to score, he hit.

When he scored suddenly, when he should have dropped to the low post to turn over and shoot a jump shot, he would turn over and shoot. If the Knicks defended one of his plays, he would change his play.

The Knicks were clearly in the lead. They were leading by 6 points, 69 to 63, at halftime. But in the third quarter, they collapsed first!

That kind of psychological pressure is too much! When Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway didn't have much rest time in the first half, they didn't have much time to savor that kind of pressure, but during the halftime break

At that time, the two of them felt like they were being chased and beaten by the Eagles.

In the third quarter, the Eagles sent out a highly mobile defensive lineup of Liu Mang, Prince, Raheem, Muhammad and Kwame Brown.

Coach Kruger is going to open up the score in this quarter!

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Hawks relied on team defense to constantly bring physical contact to Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway, constantly putting pressure on the two. Although the two combined to score 44 points in the first two quarters, they still

Continue this defense.

Finally, Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway collapsed under the pressure and the pressure of the Hawks defense!

The scoring continuity between the two is broken!

Liu Mang, who scored 25 points at halftime, relied on team defense to score 12 points in a row in the third quarter, leading the Eagles to a 12-2 run and taking the lead by 4 points!

After that, the Knicks were never given a chance to overtake. After three quarters, the Hawks were 92-85, leading the Knicks by 7 points.

At the end of the quarter, Liu Mang came up as a defensive point, and Jason Terry came up with a scoring attack. After withstanding the final counterattacks of Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway, he finally defeated the Knicks once again.

118 to 103, the Hawks only allowed the Knicks to score 34 points in the second half.

Liu Mang finally scored 40 points in the playoffs for the first time this season and the fifth time in his career, helping the Hawks defeat the Knicks by 15 points and win two consecutive games.

Although both were 2-0, the Eagles' game was unexpectedly good. In the first half, the Knicks' offense exploded. In the second half, the Eagles' persistent defense finally suppressed the Knicks' explosion, and finally won the game.

of victory.

No one expected that the second game of a series, which seemed to have the largest gap in strength, would actually be the most beautiful!





Liu Mang didn't expect to be so tired during the game against the Knicks, so he almost won.

After returning home and struggling all night, when Liu Mang got up the next morning, he saw Alexia packing her luggage, and the mother next to her was still fast asleep.

When Liu Mang saw Alexia carrying several boxes, as if she was trying to stuff all her clothes into them, he shed a drop of cold sweat and said, "Aida, I'm just going to play away games, just for three or four days.

It’s not an expedition to Antarctica.”

"I don't know which one you like, so just bring them all!" Alexia's reason was simple and rude.

"I like whatever you pick up..." Liu Mang saw Alexia's thin skirt with the spring light spreading, and crawled over while saying disgusting words shamelessly.

Alexia also came to Liu Mang's side, kissed Liu Mang on the mouth and said, "My dear, what do you want to do so early in the morning?"

While speaking, Alexia stretched out her hand, stuck her middle finger with the thumb of her right hand, and flicked it on the head of Xiao Liu Mang who raised his head in the morning...

A shrill scream came from Liu Mang's room...



Liu Mang resentfully dragged a large suitcase toward the parking lot. After all, he finally reduced his luggage to just one suitcase, and then prepared to drive to the airport to meet the team and get a flight to New York at 9 a.m.

Going to New York is always a happy thing. It's so prosperous. Although the team's rules are strict and it's forbidden to go out in the playoffs, it's exciting to play away games in places like New York and Los Angeles.

It was exactly a two-hour flight, and when we arrived at the hotel in New York, it was lunch time.

After lunch, Liu Mang continued to devote himself to training, practicing in the indoor court of the hotel.

Use training to motivate teammates. Maybe not all teammates will come to train together. Even when they first arrive in New York, most people don’t want to train. It’s quite tiring to travel long distances and take a two-hour flight, especially for a year-long training.

For NBA players who have taken at least a hundred flights, the Hawks players, even Raheem, Jason Terry, and Korver, the three hardest-working training fiends besides Liu Mang, all chose to rest.

.

But Liu Mang leads by example and trains when he arrives at the hotel, which will definitely have an impact on his teammates, especially on young players. The psychological impact is even greater. Liu Mang is going to win the MVP. He trains hard. If others don't work hard, he will be disappointed.

Excuse me.

When Coach Kruger saw that Liu Mang was training so much and there was no big problem, he did not stop Liu Mang from training because the training volume was too heavy. This was also taken into consideration.
