The pre-match activities were over. After Liu Mang finished spreading the powder, the players from the two teams came to the court.

The five major players of the Hawks gathered together, Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady, Prince, Rasheed Wallace, and Kwame Brown appeared together.

For the Suns, Nash, Quentin Richardson, Joe Johnson, Shawn Marion, Stoudemire.

In today's game, the Eagles did not change to a mini lineup because the Suns' lineup was small. It has been proven that it is impossible to beat the opponent's rhythm and attack, so the Eagles are still normal.

Tall lineup.

As soon as Liu Mang came on stage, he heard the system prompt.

"Ding... Characteristics of the talent skill Son of the Wind: Triggered by Homecoming, the Suns team's fighting spirit is high, the morale of the host's team has dropped slightly due to the last loss to the Suns, from Steve Nash."

As for the Suns, because they are a team that "promotes" running and gunning, even the Hawks "learn" from them in running and gunning. Their record is far ahead in the Western Conference, and the gap with the Hawks is not big. In addition, they won last time

The Eagles naturally have a lot of fighting spirit. As long as Nash is around, they are so confident.

This, in the reminder given to Liu Mang by the digitization of the system, is Nash's "centering" characteristic.

Without the Devil's home court, the opponent actually suppressed his morale! Liu Mang had to think of a way to regain his morale.

Wade's star card for a fierce dunk? Or Vin Baker's star card for a powerful dunk?

No, Liu Mang thought about it and realized that against this Suns team before they acquired a few dirty players such as LaGar Bell and Kurt Thomas, offense was not the problem. The problem was morale and defense.

Liu Mang thought for a while and decided to just do it!

Kwame Brown and Stoudemire came to the center circle to jump the ball.

Kwame Brown took a deep breath, adjusted his posture, and prepared for a jump ball. Stoudemire on the opposite side also jumped into the ball.

The two high school insiders, who are one year apart, have also played against each other in high school. They are both All-Stars this season. They did not have a good confrontation during the All-Star game. This time, the two are ready to compete.

.

The referee checked the positions of the two teams and found that there was no problem. He blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air.

Kwame Brown lost to Stoudemire in the last jump, and he didn't miss it this time! The moment the ball thrown by the referee reached its highest point, Kwame Brown suddenly jumped up and touched the ball first!

Stoudemire jumps faster, but Kwame Brown reacts faster!

Kwame Brown moved the ball backwards.

"Cool!" Liu Mang saw the ball flying over and praised Kwame Brown in his heart. He ran up to the ball and jumped up. Liu Mang caught the ball and pushed it in the direction of McGrady. After landing, he followed the trend from the left half.

The field rushes towards the frontcourt!

The Suns' head coach's tactics did not consider defense, but that doesn't mean that the players stopped defending. They just made sure that during counterattacks, in addition to the defenders and passers, there would be no blocks or steals.

Stoudemire moved sideways to the right in an attempt to hinder Liu Mang's quick move, but Kwame Brown, who was extremely excited after winning the jump ball, directly picked and rolled him in the middle!

Liu Mang rushed from the left half to the frontcourt without any hindrance.

When Liu Mang came to the three-point line, McGrady, who received Liu Mang's non-stop pass, had already entered the three-point line from the right half and went straight to the basket!

Big Q and Marion double-teamed McGrady. The first goal in the opening game was very important. They didn't want McGrady to dunk directly. McGrady was moving too fast. Kwame Brown helped Liu Mang block Stade.

Meyer went and Rasheed Wallace hadn't cut inside yet. After being stuck by Marion, McGrady entered the three-second zone from the right side of the three-second zone and ran out from the left side of the three-second zone. At this time,

Liu Mang happened to rush into the three-second zone from the free throw line, and McGrady immediately passed the ball to Liu Mang.

The moment Liu Mang received the ball, he faced an empty basket and a perfect dunk opportunity. At this time, the system prompt came!

"Ding...Fancy dunk level 5 trigger, waist and abdominal strength, back strength, right shoulder strength improvement, this dunk is..."

Liu Mang received the ball with his right hand, grabbed the ball firmly with one hand, ran a step, stepped into the free throw line with his left foot, suddenly jumped up, turned 180 degrees in the air, bent forward in the air, and when he reached the highest point, he suddenly

Stretch the ground, grab the ball with your right hand from bottom to top, and chop the ball down with your back to the basket!

"Bang..."

Liu Mang smashed the ball into the basket!

Turn 180 degrees with your back to the tomahawk!

Hearing the system prompt for Tomahawk dunk, Liu Mang did not do a simple Tomahawk dunk, but forced a turn. Anyway, one of the opponent's "insiders" had already been taken away, and the other insider had just entered the three-point line. He wanted to

Play hard!

Fortunately, there was no dunk, and the 180-degree turn with the tomahawk behind was completed!

"Ding... the host completed a wonderful dunk, the morale of the Eagles rose sharply, and the morale of the Suns declined slightly."

Liu Mang didn't need to listen to the system prompts. After seeing himself perform a dunk contest-style dunk at the beginning, his teammates on the sidelines jumped with excitement. McGrady even ran back in excitement, and he

I know this dunk made my teammates happy.

The fans at the scene also said "Oh...", the sound was low, not cheering, but the sound of booing after being surprised.

However, Liu Mang felt as if he had hit something just now, but it did not hinder him. He turned around and saw that Nash was being pulled up by Marion. Did he knock down the Son of the Wind?

Liu Mang immediately ran back, Nash was knocked down, and the Suns didn't start their first fast break, which was a surprise.

Nash was so frustrated. Just now Marion and Big Q were chasing Tracy McGrady. When Liu Mang received the ball, the basket was empty. Nash immediately rushed in to stop Liu Mang. Who knew that Liu Mang "saw" him playing?

A more fancy one, turning 180 degrees in the air, he rushed forward angrily and prepared to hit Liu Mang, but then he was knocked out of the baseline by Liu Mang's enhanced impact...

Originally, when the Suns team's morale was high, Liu Mang's fancy dunk could at best restore his team's morale without being affected by the Suns' fighting spirit. However, Nash became the background, and the Suns team's morale was slightly damaged.

This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The Suns fell into a positional battle at the beginning, which made Nash very uncomfortable. Stoudemire was the same as Kwame Brown, Howard and Garnett.

, is the kind of jump ball master who can't lose two jump balls in a season. It doesn't matter if there is no fast break at the beginning. Occasionally they lose a jump ball and they can immediately organize a counterattack. This time they fell into a positional battle at the beginning. Nash felt strange.

weird.

Weird thing is weird, Nash received the serve and quickly advanced to the frontcourt, and Prince immediately defended him.

After having an experience against Nash, who was now completely different, Prince became more experienced in guarding Nash, and he did a better job of giving Nash physical contact and anticipating Nash's movements.

Facing the defense of Prince, who is known as the strongest single defense expert in the league, Nash struggled in singles, much more difficult to deal with than Liu Mang and Tracy McGrady, so he beckoned Stoudemire to come out for a pick-and-roll.

Stoudemire came out to help Nash block Prince, and Kwame Brown followed.

The moment Prince made a move to bypass the pick-and-roll, Stoudemire, who had not yet blocked anyone, immediately turned around and ran back to the inside. He also wanted to follow the same play style as in the previous game, but this time Kwame

-Brown was prepared and pressed towards Stoudemire, and the two of them came outside the reasonable collision zone.

Nash immediately passed the ball to Stoudemire. Although Stoudemire failed to hit the basket directly, this reverse run allowed him to get into the basket. He couldn't squeeze through the normal position despite his best efforts.

Kwame Brown, after receiving the ball, Stoudemire jumped up and smashed the ball towards the basket!

The little bully is so mighty..."pop"..."bang"...

When Nash passed the ball to Stoudemire, Liu Mang rushed inside. When he saw Stoudemire receiving the ball, he did not hesitate to dunk. Liu Mang passed the ball to Stoudemire.

He jumped up from behind and slapped Stoudemire, who was facing the basket sideways, about to dunk the ball with a precise slap. The ball bounced off the backboard.

Prince turned around and grabbed the ball. Liu Mang immediately ran towards the frontcourt. Prince passed the ball to McGrady, who made a long pass to the frontcourt.

Liu Mang rushed to the opponent's three-point line, received the ball in one step, and directly attacked the basket!

"Ding... fancy dunk level 5 trigger..."

Liu Mang didn't care what the most suitable dunk suggested by the fancy dunk was. After taking off, he switched the ball to his left hand, stretched his body back like a bow, and after reaching the highest point, he smashed the ball into the basket with his left hand!

A left-hand tomahawk dunk!

After two consecutive dunks, the fans at the scene didn’t know what to say, so just boo!

The overwhelming boos sent to Liu Mang were the fans' highest respect and hostility to their opponents.

The fans watching the game in front of the TV were even more surprised when they saw this scene than the fans at the scene, because it looked like a replica of the dunk just now, except that it was a right-handed tomahawk behind the back, this time it was a normal tomahawk!

Coach Kruger and Mike Woodson looked at each other and smiled on the sidelines. Not to mention the whole game, at least at the beginning of the game, the tactics worked!

The most difficult thing about beating the Suns is the rhythm, which is faster than the fastest rhythm here on the Hawks, and the faster the opponent's rhythm, the more accurate their shots. So they thought about it for a whole month and finally determined some ways to deal with the Suns.

, First of all, the first tactic is to focus on attacking the basket on the offensive end, reasonably reduce shots from the outside, and reduce the ball from bouncing directly to the outside and being grabbed by the opponent and then counterattacking.

At the same time, when defending, try to guard against it. No matter whether you can guard against it or not, you will have to counterattack on your own side.

The key point is that when counterattacking, only one or two people directly attack the opponent's basket. If the counterattack is successful, they will retreat. If the counterattack is not successful, they will fall back to their positions. When they fall into position, they must retreat at any time and focus on attacking the basket. The other three

Quickly retreat to prevent the opponent's fast break three-pointer and attack the basket.
