From today on is the king

Chapter 653 652. Emperor Mang Lands at the Holy Land of Basketball!

"Ding... Yao Ming's Ambition mission of the Avengers series of missions is completed, and Steve Francis will be rewarded with a peak star card."

Francis card...

It’s better than nothing, Francis’ star card is really low for Liu Mang, and Liu Mang’s speed is better than Francis’s, not to mention his offensive methods. The only thing Francis can provide is strength confrontation, but it’s not to the point where Liu Mang can improve qualitatively. The fit of Francis’ star card is only 60.00%. At 100, Liu Mang asked the system, but he could only increase his strength to 91, the effect is not as good as Hayes' star card, but tasteless is tasteless, better than nothing.

Now Liu Mang has a new understanding of the use of star cards. It doesn't have to be the star cards of so many strong stars. Sometimes the star cards of some outstanding stars in a certain aspect may have miraculous effects when facing specific opponents!

And those famous stars, if they are not superstars, even if they get their ability bonuses, playing with their style of play may not be very effective, because the opponents know it too well. On the contrary, some role players are good at certain aspects of their abilities. If they can be used wisely, the effect will be even better!
For example, Liu Mang took advantage of the Rockets' power forward to play Barkley's style of play for a while, which was very exciting.

Of course, there are many restrictions. If there is a power forward with better defense, Liu Mang can’t do anything about it. But Morris is similar to Boozer, strong in offense and weak in defense, and his offense is not as good as Boozer. Garnett.

If Liu Mang met those top defensive insiders and played like Maurice Taylor, he would be courting death. After Yao Ming was dunked, the defense at the basket became more active.

Now Liu Mang finally understands why Yao Ming's power forward teammates have always been poor. Yao Ming must be the one the Rockets are most targeted on defense.

Liu Mang paid a moment of silence for Yao Ming's career in the NBA. Alexander was so stingy and asked him to find an inside helper for Yao Ming with a contract of tens of millions. Liu Mang felt that even if Yao Ming proposed it, it would probably be useless.

However, there are very few star cards that are particularly useful and have some unexpected effects. Hayes' performance in the 2010-2011 season really surprised many teams at the time, because it was so rare.

Most ordinary stars are really ordinary stars. Liu Mang thinks it is very difficult to get the star card of Hayes, who can be said to be unique in NBA history.

Of course, if you can have the star cards of Kobe, Jordan and others, who cares about using the opponent's unfamiliar style of play to play tricks, just go ahead and do it.

After the game between the Eagles and the Rockets, the Eagles once again made a sensation in the basketball world. They were able to beat the famous [-]-[-] kick-off team like that!

And the main thing that shocks people is that Liu Mang can play like Barkley. Although Morris Taylor's defense is indeed a bit weak, Liu Mang didn't dare to go to the basket when he met Cato, but this is amazing enough!

Liu Mang's hooligan value increased by more than 100 million in one game. Many Barkley fans originally liked Liu Mang but hated Liu Mang because of what Liu Mang said after the game.

Similarly, Barkley was almost pissed off by Liu Mang.

But for Barkley, there is a very sad problem in front of him. Bowen is injured. The Spurs are weaker than the Lakers. It is basically impossible for the Spurs to enter the finals.

The Eagles, the dominance of the Eastern Conference is getting stronger and stronger. Although many media are going to praise the Big Three of the Nets to the sky, and the Nets have indeed improved a lot after getting Carter, but Barkley, as a veteran superstar, knows that the Nets, who have no insiders, will meet the Eagles in the playoffs... It is impossible to have the strength of the 2002 playoffs. There is a very magical connection between the two teams. The Pistons were swept by the Eagles in the first two years, but the head coach of the Pacers is the head coach who was swept by the Eagles in the past two years.

In Barkley’s view, it is already foreseeable that the Hawks and Lakers will meet in the finals, which makes Barkley very sad. If the Lakers win the championship, there will be one less hard-working man at the power forward position, but he is also very upset if the Eagles win the championship. The guy who mocked him is about to win the championship... Thinking of this, Barkley called a 24-hour convenience store at night to deliver 10 hamburgers...

In the league, the Hawks also made the hearts of other teams explode.

Liu Mang is becoming more and more versatile, and the feeling of being able to do everything will make the next team that is going to play against the Eagles go crazy!

Can play low post like Barkley, although it can only be a weakened version due to weight; can attack with both hands so sharp; can score normally like ordinary guards, and can dunk dunks from time to time, which makes other teams want to vomit blood!
However, in fact, Liu Mang's ability value is still stuck at 85, and may soon be raised to 86, but his own ability evaluation is still 85.

Liu Mang is becoming more and more difficult to guard against now, in fact, because one of the advantages of using the star card is that it can scare the opponent. Even if the effect of the star card is gone, he has no such ability, but the opponent does not think that the opponent will definitely attack Liu Wei.
……

……

After killing the Rockets with 8 consecutive victories and improving their record to 35 wins and 7 losses, the Eagles rested for two days. On January 1, they ushered in a challenge from the Miami Heat at home.

Before the start of the game, Wade looked at the other side. Liu Mang warmed up excitedly before the game with a posture of eagerness to try. Rasheed Wallace came back with a look of eating people.

Not to mention the excitement of the rest of the Eagles after Rasheed Wallace's comeback, just these two guys, Wade feels that this game...

The spirit of a team can be seen from before the game. The morale of the Eagles who just slaughtered the Rockets two days ago is already high. Rasheed Wallace is back, and the fighting spirit of the Eagles seems to be ignited.

Before the start of the game, with Rasheed Wallace's long-lost roar of the gods, all the Heat players who were shocked by the Hawks' last slaughter of the Rockets had no fighting spirit.

Hit a hammer!

He is strong and has recently gone berserk, and this time there is an inside core comeback, unless Odom concentrates on the whole game and there is a chance, but Odom can only be serious for half the game, and that is the best situation.

With Rasheed Wallace’s yell, the Hawks team seemed to be about to go berserk. The Heat collapsed immediately. In the first half of the game, the Hawks opened up a 16-5 lead by 11 points. In the full 6 minutes, the Heat only made one field goal. The strength is not yet Francis' opponent, so he decisively chooses not to fight Liu Mang desperately.

Wade has no sense of shame about avoiding Liu Mang who is in the most terrifying state right now. He is just a weak rookie...

After Rasheed Wallace came back, he didn’t hold back and played desperately on both ends of the offense and defense. Coach Kruger made Rasheed Wallace the team’s second offensive option, venting the frustration of being suspended for 10 games. 25 big score lead.

Only at halftime, Rasheed Wallace collapsed on the massage table like a dead dog.

However, Rasheed Wallace's rampage gave the Eagles a 16-point lead at halftime, and the next game was easy, very easy. Both teams fought hard to defend in the second half. Liu Mang scored 34 points, 32 rebounds and 4 assists in 11 minutes of play, helping the Eagles to a 94-73, 21-point victory!

After these two games, the Eagles won a season-high nine-game winning streak!At the same time, Liu Mang's scoring average has also increased to 31 points.

……

After playing the Heat, the Hawks headed aggressively to New York for a night of rest. On January 1, they challenged the Knicks in an away game.

It is true that Isaiah Thomas made another brilliant move to get Marbury with empty gloves, but there may be gains and losses. The relationship between the law of character conservation, Marbury didn't play a few games after he came back, and Alan Houston was reimbursed for the season!
The Knicks fans who had long been dissatisfied with Alan Houston’s ability to lead the team alone were not sad, but continued to mock Alan Houston’s [-] million yuan contract. After Liu Mang came to Madison Square Garden, he saw a fan holding a sign telling Alan Houston to get out, and there were many people around.

In addition to the ruthlessness of the fans, after Liu Mang came to the Knicks yesterday, when he heard that the Knicks management and the league applied for an amnesty clause that each team could lay off a player without taking up the salary cap, he also understood why the superstars in the history of the Knicks did not have much favor for this team.

New York and Madison Square Garden are indeed the holy places of basketball players' dreams, but the holy places are often full of ruthlessness...

On the Knicks side, Marbury wants to just go!He wants hard steel Liu Mang!

Back to play in New York, Marbury's son of New York became popular. Although the Knicks were overshadowed by Alan Houston's season reimbursement, but with Marbury and Anfernee Hardaway, their strength did not decline but rose. They had a chance to make the playoffs, and the probability was very high. Marbury also had fighting spirit, and finally led the team to the playoffs!After leaving Garnett, he has never played in the playoffs, which made him lose face. This time he finally has a chance to enter the playoffs, and he feels that his face has returned!
Then when it was time for the game, watching Liu Mang use his own tentative steps to break through the offense continuously, and then the Eagles defended like a meat grinder, Marbury, who played against the Eagles for the first time this season, was a little confused!
Liu Mang did it on purpose. When Marbury is serious about defending, the effect is good. The defensive talent is much better than Francis, but the usual defensive attitude is very poor.

In order to save effort, Liu Mang was also preparing for the possibility of meeting the Knicks in the first round of the playoffs. He installed Marbury’s tentative step breakthrough action pack and used Marbury’s offensive style to let Marbury defend.

However, Marbury obviously couldn't prevent his own tentative step breakthrough. If he could do the kind of quick stop and quick start action on the offensive end, he couldn't defend against it.

And Liu Mang can rely on his teammates to defend Marbury, but Marbury has no teammates to help defend Liu Mang. Mutombo is too old. It is not bad for him to block shots when the outside line can withstand the opponent or when another inside line blocks the opponent.

Liu Mang is very excited every time he comes to the holy place of basketball, and makes the fans turn against him every time, and this time is no exception!

At the beginning of the game, Liu Mang relied on tentative steps to break through the inside to score or cause kills. When the Knicks began to shrink their defense, Marbury was forced to retreat. Liu Mang was just outside the three-point line.
Liu Mang played for 41 minutes in this game. The Knicks didn't give up when the point difference reached 20 points, giving Liu Mang the best chance to score points!
At first Liu Mang thought about passing the ball, but he couldn't control it at all!Even when he was double-teamed by the opponent, he kept shooting, and he insisted on shooting [-]% of the shots to less than [-]%...

Relying on the spirit of Los Angeles, Liu Mang made 46 of 20 shots, 20 of 9 three-pointers, and 13 of 11 free throws. He forcibly scored 60 points!
The Hawks easily beat the Knicks 113-85, which is no big deal.

Liu Mang broke the single-game scoring record in the holy land of basketball!

Madison Square Garden is back again!
