From today on is the king

Chapter 260 258. I am the Pioneer!
The people around could see that Liu Mang was trying to cheer up Muhammad, who was about to lose his confidence, but they didn't expect that Liu Mang was like the godfather in the underworld movie. The people around them felt a little excited and even yearning.

As Liu Mang's strength improved, his on-court performance improved, and his status in the league improved, the effect of the team leader really began to show.

With 30 seconds left in the intermission, the referee blew his whistle to signal that the players of the two teams are ready for the game to continue.

"Come on, we must win this game!" Rahim, who has been playing very hard today, roared.

With 13 points and 7 rebounds, Raheem played really poorly in the first three quarters. He mainly scored inside, but met the full-tonnage Brand and Odom who was defending everywhere. The first three quarters were blown out.

Seeing that Raheem refused to admit defeat, Jason Terry also wanted to fight back. Needless to say, the rookie is still full of fighting spirit, and even the depressed Mohammed is now high-spirited. Coach Kruger feels that there is hope for this game, so he replaces Newbell. Since the positional battle is really impossible, let's run!
The most frustrating thing about Coach Kruger is that their rotation is so poor. It is said to be a 15-man rotation. The starting point guard only spends [-] minutes on the field. Except for the point guard and the center, who play a little more time as a substitute, the other three position substitutes come up to play for more than ten minutes, most of the time.

……

Confidence has been regained, but the pressure is really high!
The Clippers are now activated by Odom's coquettish performance. Brand, Maggette, Big Q, McGinnis, plus Odom, if this lineup plays well, it is indeed very strong!

Looking at the four teammates whose nerves could be seen from their expressions, Liu Mang felt that it would be better to ease the pressure on the teammates.

Indeed, I don't want to lose, but I am too nervous, maybe I will lose faster!
Liu Mang turned his head, pointed to the Clippers and said, "The enemy army has 30 seconds to reach the battlefield, the whole army will attack!"

"..."

Jason Terry, Raheem, Newbell, and Muhammad, who were thinking about how to deal with the Clippers on the defensive end, looked at Liu Mang in confusion.

Although there is no such thing as the term Secondary School these days, the four people feel Liu Mang's current appearance is that this kid has committed a secondary school again!
"Haha, that's right, the cavalry company is dispatched!" Jason Terry was heartbroken, thinking that since he couldn't defend, it would be better if the cavalry company attacked!
"That's right! The whole army is attacking!" Muhammad, who put aside the pressure brought by Odom, regained the style of the leader of the locker room and said loudly.

……

Back from the intermission, the Clippers have the ball.

The Clippers replaced Earl Boykins, Maggette, and Eric Piakowski as three substitute outsiders. Brand continued to dominate the field. In addition to the number of assists, Brand included the number of playing time, points, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, turnovers, and fouls.

Of course, compared to last season when Odom ruled the Clippers first in all statistics, it is still a little bit worse. With Odom as the core, it is basically certain that he is the first in all statistics.

Olowokandi also played, started the first quarter well, then got frustrated, then frustrated, and finally returned to an honest blue-collar big center, which is the only way for Mr. Sugar Man to go through every game.

Olowokandi is still good as an honest blue-collar who is stuck in the position and guards the inside.

The Clippers now want to rely on stability to grind the Eagles to death. In the third quarter, they tried to directly establish the victory, but the Eagles deserved to be number one in the Eastern Conference.

Bart, when the Clippers pushed the ball over, he felt the Hawks' murderous aura as if a sharp knife had come out of their bodies!
With those firm and fierce eyes, Boykins, a mini point guard with a height of 165, sees the rookie in front of him, why does he feel like he is about to be swallowed?
Following the retirement of the shortest player in NBA history, Denny Bogans, the undrafted Boykins of the 98 generation became the shortest player in the league.

"Ding... Earl Boykins, height 165 cm, weight 60 kg, ability value 69, offense 80, defense 40, three-pointer 81, mid-range shot 52, layup 89, speed 92, strength 55..."

Liu Mang looked at the little man in front of him who was even less likely to be able to play professional league than ordinary people, and he didn't dare to relax at all.

The pinnacle masterpiece of this little man was in the Nuggets and Bucks in the 06-07 season, averaging 15 points and 3 assists per game, but at that time he had actually entered a decline stage and was already over 30 years old.

Now the 27-year-old Boykins is the best combination of speed and technology. Unfortunately, some players are like this. Theoretically, they are at their peak, but they cannot be reused.

Liu Mang didn't dare to underestimate Boykins. Although this guy is short and short-legged, his foot speed is only 92, but the Eagles can keep up with this speed, only Liu Mang.

Be sure to guard against it!

Just as Boykins was beyond the three-point line, Liu Mang slammed toward Boykins viciously.

Boykins was taken aback. He agreed to come up and dribble the ball steadily. The opponent has no fighting spirit. Why is this new All-Star rookie so active?

Scared, Boykins quickly passed the ball to Maggette.

The current Boykins is not the super confident sixth man of the Nuggets. He has changed five teams in less than four years of his career, and now, the four seasons are almost over, and he has played less than 4 games in total. He is still struggling to survive.

Liu Mang really scared people.

Boykins passed the ball, and Liu Mang ran towards Maggette immediately, and double-teamed Maggette with Raheem.

Liu Mang is very clear about the performance of Boykins, a small man in the Nuggets period. Singles, singles, or singles, Boykins was clearly a 23-year-old rookie with strong combat power at the beginning of his career, but he has been unpopular because he can do nothing but attack with the ball. There is basically no open shot.

Maggette took the ball and was stopped by Raheem, and he didn't expect that the opponent's player let go of the point guard to double-team him, but Liu Mang went up and cut the ball away!
Fight back now!

Liu Mang passed by Maggette after the steal, and the words that only he could see but couldn't see floated out of his head-I am the pioneer!

Solo riding level 4 triggers!
Liu Mang accumulated a total of 74 skill upgrade cards after the lottery draw before, directly upgrading the solo rider to level 4.

Solo Riding Level 4: The speed in counterattack with the ball is reduced by 30.00% due to the effect of holding the ball. Five, every time you throw away an opponent, the speed will be +4 within two seconds. Continuous triggers within the effect time can be superimposed. After getting rid of all blocking players in front, the bounce will be +7.

Liu Mang's speed soared, and he rushed to the center line in an instant. Boykins immediately returned to defense after Maggette was intercepted, but Liu Mang rushed to his side all of a sudden!

Boykins reached out to steal, but Liu Mang easily left Boykins behind with a bad luck. Boykins was criticized as a small man because he didn't have the strong steals that a small man should have, so his defense was basically equal to 0!

Boykins wanted to catch up immediately after being shaken away. Originally, Liu Mang held the ball, and the speed of 94 would not be faster than that of Boykins, who was running empty-handed at 92, but the speed bonus of riding alone at this time was superimposed!There is also 30.00% immunity to the impact of holding the ball!Boykins wanted to reach out to pull Liu Mang but failed!
After nearly two hours, the fans finally got another chance to cheer!

Been suppressed for too long!
"Dunk dunk..."

The fans at the scene chanted dunks.

Liu Mang originally wanted to rush to the frontcourt and return the top arc to let the follow-up Jason Terry shoot a three-pointer, but now he heard the shouts of the fans, and his blood rushed to his brain!

Dunk dunk!
Liu Mang rushed straight to the basket, took a step inside the three-point line, and originally planned to take another step, but at this time, there was an irresistible urge to jump up!
"Fancy dunk 3 is triggered, it is judged to be a tomahawk step inside the free throw line, and the core strength of the back is enhanced..."

With a jumping ability of 74 and a 7-point solo riding bonus, Liu Mang's counterattack this time has an excellent jumping ability among NBA guards!
Liu Mang took a step inside the free throw line... a slightly big step, he took off directly, swung the ball in the air and smashed it into the basket amidst the fans' exclamations!

After landing, Liu Mang was startled!

And then ecstasy!
This is the arrow of the cavalry!

This is the pioneer!
"Ding... The fancy dunk is completed, the morale of the host's team has risen sharply, and the morale of the opponent has dropped."

Liu Mang and Jason Terry, who followed up and didn't catch the ball but didn't complain at all, bumped their chests to celebrate. Liu Mang's dunk further ignited the emotions of his teammates!
Morale is something that ebbs and flows. The Eagles counterattacked when they came up, and scored so easily, which dealt a big blow to the Clippers players who were not the opponents of the Eagles.

"Don't we have a crazy Odom, we can't beat our opponents at all?"

This idea inevitably appeared in the hearts of the Clippers players.

Originally, the Clippers were only [-]th and [-]th in the Western Conference, and there was a big gap between them and the Hawks. After Odom started playing soy sauce in the third quarter, they began to lose to the Hawks.

80 to 67, a 13-point difference, but the Clippers felt that the point difference seemed unstable at all!
"Cheer up!" Brand clapped his hands to cheer up his teammates, and he was still ahead!How come you look like you're about to lose!Boykins pushed forward again, and Brand was very unhappy to resist Muhammad for the ball.

"I'm the strongest! I won't lose! I'm the strongest!" Brainwashed by Liu Mang, Muhammad tried his best to push towards Brand...and then was pushed away...Brand dodged Newbell who was flying over, and made a layup with a low hand.

"Cheer up! We can win..." Brand just wanted to use this to motivate his teammates after scoring a goal, when Muhammad immediately ran over to pick up the ball and threw it towards the frontcourt.

Immediately afterwards, Jason Terry chased and hit a three-pointer!
