From today on is the king

Chapter 641 640. Liu Mang's Response! (Ask for a monthly pass!)
35+ triple-double to welcome his comeback?

This is really too grand, so grand that Liu Mang feels very angry!
Fuck him!Fuck him!kill him!
This damned squinting eye actually learned how to pretend!Can't you just brush up the data on the bad team?

Liu Mang was practicing three-pointers at the Phillips Arena when he saw Jason Terry coming.

Liu Mang and Jason Terry looked at each other, and they said hello without saying anything. After Jason Terry went to change his training clothes, the two started 1-on-1 practice.

The No. 7 Eagles will travel to Orlando for their third match against the Magic this season.

On the morning of the 4th, that is, the morning after being killed by the Magic, several main players of the Eagles spontaneously came to the Phillips Arena for training.

Originally, the Eagles coaching staff planned to let the players take a day off after playing consecutive back-to-back games, start training tomorrow, go to Orlando the day after tomorrow, and play Magic on the 7th.

Liu Mang came to the Phillips Arena at [-]:[-] in the morning. After training for a while, most of his teammates came one after another.

After losing to the Magic, the Eagles players were very unhappy. If it was just a two-game losing streak, it would be acceptable, and it’s not like they haven’t lost two games in a row, but McGrady’s words made the Eagles players feel very angry!
They were very annoyed, McGrady was so pretentious while taking advantage of his core being suspended!
The Eagles players all spontaneously came to the Phillips Arena for additional training. Seeing familiar teammates also coming to the arena for additional training early, they changed into training uniforms in a tacit understanding. Without too many words, everything was spoken.

Even Rasheed Wallace, who has been suspended for 8 games and will not return until the Rockets game at home, has come to train with his teammates. Being a sparring partner is also a good way to maintain his state. He is conducting one-on-one offensive and defensive training with Boozer.

Everyone is preparing for the game against No. 7 and the Magic.

……

The Eagles' loss to the Magic was indeed a big upset. It seems that even if Liu Mang and Rasheed Wallace can't fight, the Eagles shouldn't lose to the Magic.

But this actually highlights the importance of Liu Mang to the Eagles!
There is also McGrady's provocation against Liu Mang, which obviously means that he wants to start the scoring championship. This makes the fans who have entered the middle of the season and feel more and more boring in the long season come alive again!

The battle for the scoring champion is always so exciting.

The last battle for the scoring title was already ten years ago. In the first year after Jordan retired, the second-year O'Neal and the league's top super center David Robinson fought for the scoring title until the final battle. David Robinson scored 71 points before reversing O'Neal and winning the scoring title.

It's very interesting that one of the two players in this battle for the scoring title is a Magic player. This is very interesting. The Magic player who did this last time left after playing for the Magic for four years.

Coincidentally, McGrady is now in his fourth season, and because he played so badly at the beginning, he lost 19 games in a row at the beginning, and has already applied for a trade.

Therefore, McGrady provoked the scoring championship this time, so that fans in the league have a lot to discuss, of course, as long as it is about the ownership of the scoring championship.

Now in the league, only McGrady and Liu Mang average more than 25 points per game. Among others, Peja has the highest average score of 24 points and less than 25 points per game. The regular season has already played almost half of the schedule, and the statistics of the players can basically see the trend of the entire season. The scoring champion is basically determined to be between McGrady and Liu Mang.

The fans originally entered January, and their desire to watch the game was already low, but now all the major forums on the Internet are active again, discussing whether McGrady and Liu Mang will compete for the scoring championship, and which of the two has a better chance of winning.

Obviously, McGrady is playing on a bad team, regardless of the record. The goal of the Magic is also bad. At the same time, the management of the Magic team doesn't know what to think.

Therefore, people are more optimistic about McGrady in winning the scoring championship.

On Liu Mang’s side, the team’s record must be the first goal. They have already shouted out before that they want to surpass the 2000 wins of the Lakers in 67. Now because he was suspended for two games and did not lose two games, the record of the Eagles has become 27 wins and 7 losses, that is, they have to win 48 games in 41 games.

Therefore, whether the battle for the top scorer can happen or not depends on one key point, that is, whether Liu Mang will accept the battle for the top scorer!
……

……

The Eagles ignored the heated discussions from the outside world and refused to accept interviews. They did not want to answer questions related to this matter. After the Eagles players spontaneously trained yesterday, they started team training today.

Liu Mang can play the game, which is the backbone for the Eagles, because the Eagles' tactics revolve around Liu Mang. In this era when single-core or dual-core is still popular in the league, even if the Lakers have the so-called Big Four, their tactics are still around Kobe and O'Neal. The Spurs have a troika, and they also revolve around Duncan.

This is also the key to the Hawks' loss in the first two games. It's not that other people can't do it. It's just that the team played around Liu Mang and strictly implemented this style of play this year.

After the team training in the afternoon, the Eagles players were going to take a shower and go home to have a good rest. Jason Terry, who usually came out to steal food with his wife behind his back these two days, did not go out with Barnes and Rasheed Wallace.

After training, Liu Mang was the first to take a shower, hesitating in the locker room and not leaving, thinking about a problem.

Jason Terry came out of the shower and changed his clothes. Seeing Liu Mang's tangled face, he asked, "Ace, why don't you go back? Do you want to practice more?"

Liu Mang shook his head and replied: "No, the training is not bad in the past few hours. We have almost finished training. There is no problem in winning the Magic. I was thinking whether to accept Tracy's challenge."

The Eagles players actually have a good relationship with McGrady, mainly because Liu Mang and McGrady have a good relationship, so when they call McGrady, most Eagles players call them by their first names.

Of course, this does not affect the Eagles' idea of ​​crazy output against the Magic and Tracy McGrady. Retaliation must be ruthless!
"Ace, are you struggling with this?" Jason Terry asked strangely.

"Yeah, I don't know whether to compete for the scoring title this year." The most critical point discussed by the fans, that is, whether the scoring title will happen this time, is also very entangled with Liu Mang now.

This task does not necessarily have to be completed from this season, and it does not have to start challenging McGrady this season. This task will not fail, but it may not be completed.

Liu Mang originally chose to start the scoring championship this season, mainly because the timing of the past two years was too good. The scoring champions in these two years are not very abnormal. He can try it himself.

In those two years, the little blacksmith was invincible in scoring. In 06, Iverson wanted to compete with him for the scoring title. He directly soared his scoring average to 35+. Except for Jordan, no one in modern basketball can compete with him.

This is a monster who can score 81 points in a comeback in modern basketball and still have a few minutes to go.

In 07, although the average score of Little Blacksmith was only 31 points, that was because he had conquered the entire league in 06, and no one dared to compete with him for the scoring title.

It is a foregone conclusion that O'Neal's departure is a foregone conclusion. After he completed a dunk during a home game a while ago, he yelled at the sideline boss Jerry Buss for 8000 million. When Liu Mang saw the news, he was sure that O'Neal would leave the team sooner or later.

So Liu Mang was originally determined. He planned to win two scoring titles this season and the next season before Kobe took off in terms of personal statistics, and get the fourth talent skill fragment. He only needs to wait until he suppresses his contemporaries to have the opportunity to unlock the second talent skill.

If it doesn't happen this year, after Kobe starts playing normally after O'Neal left, he will have to wait until the 07-08 season if he wants to become the leading scorer. No one can say what will happen then.

So, now Liu Mang is very entangled, whether to fight with McGrady, the condition for starting the mission is to declare war on McGrady, it is not acceptable to score points secretly without declaring war, and McGrady will definitely always care about this matter.

Seeing Liu Mang's tangled look, Jason Terry said angrily: "Ace, you are stupid! Of course you have to accept it! Fuck him to death! That is, I can't do it. If I have Ace's scoring ability, I will definitely compete with him for the scoring championship!"

"So direct?" Liu Mang didn't expect the other party to say that when he heard Jason Terry's words, "In this way, Jason, your data may shrink again."

"..." Jason Terry was even angrier, "Aren't you missing a few shots and not passing to me?"

Speaking of Jason Terry is very sad and indignant!

"Uh..." Thinking about it, Liu Mang seemed to be like, he seems to do this often, and when he gets excited, he just keeps going.

While Liu Mang was talking to Jason Terry, his teammates came out one after another after taking a shower. Hearing the conversation between Liu Mang and Jason Terry, the other three of the team's top five scorers also came over.

"Ace, Jason is right, killing Tracy is too embarrassing for us, don't give him the scoring champion! It doesn't matter if you can't make a shot, I will help you rebound!" Raheem patted Liu Mang on the shoulder and said.

"I'm here to help you win the championship for Ace, you can do whatever you want! I can't help you rebound for now, wait for my comeback!" Although Rasheed Wallace was always teased by Liu Mang, he supported Liu Mang at this time.

"Ace, I support you." Boozer still didn't say much, but Liu Mang could hear that he was definitely from the heart.

Liu Mang was so moved that he almost burst into tears, with tears in his eyes: "It's great to have teammates like you..."

Seeing Liu Mang's appearance, the four people around felt the coolness of the chrysanthemum, and they took a big step away from Liu Mang.

Seeing Liu Mang's hypocritical expression, the others couldn't stand it anymore!

"Ace, you are disgusting! Remember that after winning the scoring title, please invite us to Las Vegas for a week in the summer! You are responsible for the hotel, girls, and car expenses!" This is Rasheed Wallace.

"Yes, all the girls must be Hollywood actors!" This was Jason Terry who loved dating third-rate female stars.

"That's right, Ace earned so much endorsement fees and made our stats worse, so he has to invite us to play for a few more days." This is Raheem.

"Bosses, I support your ideas!" This is Boozer.

"By the way, Jason, you know a lot of female celebrities, so bring a few more and let Ace pay for it."

"Okay! The date is on me, the wallet is on Ace..."

The four of them were talking, and directly left Liu Mang, whose expression was fixed with emotion, and left the dressing room after changing clothes.

All Liu Mang's emotions were thrown into the Mariana Trench, these guys!It's actually about terms!

Depend on!I was blind to the tears that my young master almost shed just now!These stinking shameless people!Trick my grandpa into tears!

The words are so sweet, each of them pretends to be so great, but they all want to trick the young master into paying the bill!

Looking at these bastards as if he had already agreed, they all started to discuss which of the third-rate stars they like, how to contact them, and how to play in Xia Tian, ​​Liu Mang felt that his beauty was flying...

……

On the night of October 2004, 1.

In the case that Liu Mang has not responded to McGrady's scoring challenge for two days, the fans and media who have been arguing for two days are about to lose interest in this matter.

It seems that Liu Reck may still focus on the team's record. The current information exchange technology is very developed. As soon as the news of McGrady's challenge came out, the fans believed that Liu Reck knew it immediately.

But there has been no response yet. In the eyes of the fans, there is only one possibility, that is, Liu Mang chose not to accept it to avoid affecting the team's record.

With such an ending, although a small number of fans said that Liu Mang was indifferent and did not dare to accept the challenge, the vast majority of fans agreed with this. Although individual heroism is very popular in the United States, the team spirit is also what fans like, but it is a bit regrettable.

But at 5:7 p.m. on the [-]th, the ESPN sports channel and the sports section of their official website released a news preview at the same time. At [-]:[-] p.m., Liu Mang's response to McGrady's challenge will be announced through news interviews.

An interview was broadcast in the form of a news preview. In the NBA and even the entire sports world, there is no one except Liu Wei!
but!

The fans are used to Liu Mang's troublesome personality, and they find it very interesting!Every time the ratings are extremely high!

Liu Mang immediately contacted ESPN after receiving the "conditional" support from his teammates after training in the afternoon. For such a big event, of course we must do a good job!
ESPN has been waiting for news from Liu Mang for a long time. They believe that Liu Mang will accept McGrady's challenge, and they will definitely not simply agree. Through the previous cooperation, they have already understood Liu Mang's trouble-loving character.

Although the probability of not agreeing is quite high, as one of the largest news media in the United States, ESPN will not let go of any possible big news.

Liu Mang also continued to choose to cooperate with ESPN. It is a mutually beneficial matter, and he can also get the help of one of the best large-scale media in the United States, so he will not suffer.

Moreover, because of Liu Reck's relationship, the agency that Liu Reck invested in also has a good relationship with ESPN. Players from Liu Reck's company also received a lot of exposure because of Liu Reck, such as Boozer, who is now very popular.

When Liu Mang and ESPN finished recording the video, even ESPN reporters who came to interview were dumbfounded!Then there was ecstasy, the reporter who appeared in this interview felt that he was going to follow suit!

……

At around 50:[-] p.m., the fans and even many stars who did not play tonight were in front of the TV. Not only did the fans like to watch the game, but as basketball players, most of them were basketball fans themselves.

How long has it been since there was a battle for the top scorer? Everyone is curious about how Liu Mang will respond.

Since he wanted to respond, it was basically certain that Liu Mang would agree.

But just as ESPN thought, Liu Mang's interview video made fans and stars very curious about how Liu Mang responded. Liu Mang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he will never suffer in this kind of thing!

At eight o'clock in the evening, ESPN's hourly news, after the news host gave a passionate opening speech, the TV screen switched to Liu Mang's interview video.

Liu Mang's face appeared on the TV screen, his expression was as conceited as ever.

The reporter holding a microphone with the ESPN logo asked Liu Mang: "Ace, have you heard about Tracy McGrady challenging you for the scoring title?"

"Oh, now I know." Liu Mang replied casually.

"Ace, do you choose to accept or refuse?"

Liu Mang made a distressed expression, but everyone could see that there was a joke in that expression.

Liu Mang sighed and said, "Oh, originally I wasn't interested in being the top scorer, but since Tracy accepted the challenge, then I agreed. The top scorer is not important to me, but I am still very confident in my scoring. Tracy will not be my opponent, never will. No one is my opponent in scoring. I am not targeting Tracy alone. I mean the scorers who may be watching the news in front of the TV. In terms of scoring, everyone here is rubbish!"
