From today on is the king

Chapter 917 916. Little Jimmy's Tragic Moment
Wade's dream of defeating Liu Mang was once again shattered.

I don't know when it started, the top five picks of the 03 generation have already regarded defeating Liu Mang as their "first goal".

But only Anthony has accomplished this goal.

Therefore, in the top five picks of the 03 generation, in addition to being somewhat out of tune with the other four players in thinking, Anthony also seemed out of tune with the other four players on the court.

Why can you have a good time when we are abused?
Therefore, the other four brothers are very "displeased" with Anthony, and they are even more displeased every time they lose to Liu Mang.

Without O'Neal's restraint, Wade was besieged by the Eagles in this game.

O'Neal averaged 23.7 points per game, and Wade averaged 24.5 points per game. The two accounted for almost half of the Heat's scoring average.

Without O'Neal, the Heat's offensive firepower plummeted, and Wade encountered more fierce defense when he broke through the inside.

Wade personally performed well today, scoring 28 points and 13 assists, passing the ball very quickly when encountering double teams.

Without O'Neal, Wade is the "nanny" of this team, the kind who is both a father and a mother.

But Wade only made 28 of 8 shots today and hit 20 irons angrily. If it wasn't for the referee's face, he got 14 free throws and made 12 of them. Wade would be completely cold today.

The Hawks have a full lineup here, and it's too easy to play against the Heat without O'Neal.

刘莽拿到36分9板2助攻2盖帽，麦迪拿到11分14助攻4抢断3篮板，两人联手加上内线因为奥尼尔不打无处发泄的内线的夹击，把韦德搞得单场20铁，防得韦德命中率不到30.00%。

Without O'Neal, Kwame Brown was like a dragon entering the sea, scoring 20 points and 15 rebounds.

加上贾森-特里的17分，和莫宁的12分3板3盖帽, 穆罕穆德的8分8板, 老鹰队全场杨拿到108分，并且把热火队防得全场只拿到90分，这90分还有29分是老鹰队第四节换上贾森-特里带着卡尔德隆、伊戈达拉、约什-史密斯、瓦莱乔四个一二年级的凄惨阵容后，才让热火队在三节只有61分的情况下，第四节把得分提高到了90分，显得韦德单独率领的热火队凉得没有那么透。

The Eagles easily won 11 consecutive victories!

Liu Mang carried two huge boxes into the car, and brought so much luggage every time he went out. Fortunately, Iguodala helped carry things from the airport to the Atlanta airport.

"Ace, be careful when you go out, go back to the hotel after the game, don't go out and play around." Alexia warned.

It has been almost a month since she was diagnosed with pregnancy, and as she and Liu Mang stopped applauding for love to avoid affecting the fetus, Alexia felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

In fact, it’s not that Liu Mang doesn’t love her anymore, but Alexia feels that the whole family is taking extra care of her. This is just because the pregnancy phenomenon in the first three months of pregnancy is getting worse. After there is an extra person in the stomach, the endocrine function starts to adjust. It’s a normal phenomenon.

This is the so-called precursor to postpartum depression.

Liu Mang looked at Alexia, who had been eating a lot but felt thinner because of the pregnancy phenomenon, and smiled and kissed Alexia's forehead to reassure her.

After pregnancy, you don’t get fat right away. Even if you eat a lot, your digestion may not be good. After the first trimester, when the fetus begins to grow steadily and the endocrine function of the pregnant woman is adjusted, you will start to gain weight due to excessive nutrition.

And after giving birth, the body suddenly does not need to provide nutrition to another person, and the endocrine will start to become disordered again. People's emotions are controlled by hormones in various aspects of the body. Postpartum depression is because of this.

Feeling Levia's eyes, Liu Mang also kissed Levia.

"Uncle...kiss..." Little Lolita jumped up and down next to Liu Mang.

"..."

Liu Mang was speechless for two seconds, and kissed little Lolita on the forehead.

After saying goodbye, Liu Mang drove to the airport.

After playing the Heat, the Eagles' tough schedule came.

5 battles in 4 days, two back to back, and back to back consecutively.

Clippers and Warriors, Jazz and Suns.

Almost every team will have four games in five days every season, at least once or twice. Originally, for a favorite to win the championship and a popular team like the Eagles, the league's arrangement for four games in five days is very easy.

The Eagles' four opponents in five days and four games were the bottom four in the Western Conference last season.

But who knew, the Suns exploded so badly this year, so this last back-to-back against the Suns became a popular game. Under such a severe situation after five days and four games, whether the Eagles can avenge their opponents in the game against the Suns has become a highlight of the game.

……

……

"This bastard! *￥%*%..." Kobe hung up the phone, then drove out to the Toyota Center training hall.

Kobe was reading a book just now, cultivating his sentiments, when he received a call from someone he was very upset about, and received an exaggerated request, and he really agreed. He still respects people who love training.

As for whether it is possible to make the opponent stronger and more difficult to deal with... Kobe has not considered this kind of problem, he is the number one in the world in his heart.

But hate is still hate, after cursing, I drove to the arena to take the bastard to practice.

The guy who Kobe called an asshole is someone Liu.

After sitting on a plane for more than four hours, flying from the south coast to three-quarters of the United States, and arriving in Los Angeles, the largest city in California on the west coast, Liu Mang did not go out to play or rest in his room. Instead, he called Kobe and borrowed the training hall for training.

The Eagles only played the game yesterday, and there will be four games in five days. Except for a simple tactical training session before the game in the afternoon of each game day, there are no other training sessions.

The reason why five-day four-match is the stage with the lowest winning rate of all teams in the league is that in addition to physical fitness, the inability to conduct targeted and effective tactical training on opponents is also the key reason. There are many championship-level teams that cannot win even one game in five-day four-match.

Liu Mang took a taxi to the Toyota Center Training Center and explained the situation to the security guard in the parking lot. The security guard asked the Lakers management for instructions. The Lakers management did not refuse or come to greet him. They just asked the staff to prepare the training uniforms, and Liu Mang took care of the rest by himself.

Liu Mang practiced for a while to turn sideways to face the basket, which is the most commonly used move in high post singles. Liu Mang, who combined the turn-up jumper and fade-away jumper, now shoots ridiculously crooked shots. After practicing for a while, Kobe, who changed into his training uniform, came

"Hey, you said you have technical problems and asked me to teach you?" Kobe came up and said proudly, without even calling his name, and directly replaced it with 'eh'.

Just asking for advice, if Liu Mang hadn't used the word "asking for advice", Kobe would have ignored him.

"That's right, Kobe, I heard that your fadeaway jumper is the best in the world, and I want to learn it." Liu Mang's tone was very arrogant.

But Liu Mang's arrogant tone suits Kobe's taste.

Unlike the Hawks, the Lakers are also a popular team at the beginning of the season. This season, the Lakers lineup looks good. The left-handed Magician, Atkins, Kobe, Wang Zhizhi, and Caron Butler, the five starters are all good, at least they are popular in the playoffs.

After playing a game after the All-Star Weekend, the Lakers got a three-day rest. The Lakers have no training plan. The coaching staff is in chaos. After Coach Tomjanovi resigned, there is no good successor.

The Lakers have no training plan today, and Kobe now feels that his physical fitness is really problematic. Instead of training, he began to rest and lose weight. It's just that muscles are easy to train but troublesome to lose weight.

"Lean back? Of course, my technique is the best. I'll warm up, you wait." Kobe couldn't calm down when he heard that he was number one in the world, so he warmed up quickly, and then practiced two sets of mid-range shots.

"Look, I'll just demonstrate it a few times. Whether you can learn something or not depends on you." Kobe, with the standard character of an old-school player, began to demonstrate every backward movement four or five times in a way similar to when Jordan taught Liu Mang.

Needless to say, Liu Mang thinks that Kobe's basic skills are really good, and his shooting percentage in training is too high!In terms of Kobe's psychological quality, it is equal to the open mid-range shooting in the game!
But this guy seems to like to create difficulty when playing games...

Liu Mang came here not to compare the fadeaway technique, but to observe Kobe's fadeaway technique and carefully observe the difference between Kobe's fadeaway and Jordan's fadeaway. He had already let McGrady demonstrate it before. He wanted to find the difference in the fadeaway technique of these top outside center shooters, and combined with the fadeaway movement learned from Jordan, find the most suitable fadeaway jumper technique for him.

McGrady is height, Kobe is relying on the strength of his waist and abdomen to forcibly lean back, Jordan is relying on jumping...

After Liu Mang understood it, he made a few fadeaway jumpers in a decent manner, pretending to be just learning these moves.

Kobe saw Liu Mang read it again and "learned it", he was about to vomit blood!
If you don't observe carefully, there is not much difference in the backward movement of Jordan and Kobe. Only when you observe carefully, you will find that Jordan floats back in the air to a greater extent, while Kobe's straight up and down recline is greater. These two subtle differences.

Since he has already learned the backward leaning technique from Jordan, Liu Mang can quickly understand some of Kobe's backward leaning skills after watching Kobe's movements.

Kobe's reclining is also very powerful. If Jordan's reclining relies on the additional effect brought by physical fitness, Kobe's reclining is the pinnacle of technical flow.

Liu Mang's physical fitness is obviously incomparable with Jordan's. Fast speed, good touch, and skill bonus are Liu Mang's strengths, but Jordan's physical fitness cannot be compared with Liu Mang.

So in addition to needing Jordan's skills, Liu Mang also has to tolerate the skills of some other top fadeaway jumpers.

Kobe saw that Liu Mang "learned" all the movements he had just demonstrated, first looked at the ceiling speechlessly, and then... angrily drove Liu Mang away.

Immediately afterwards, from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm in the Toyota Center, the sound of blacksmithing was heard endlessly...

After stimulating the little blacksmith, Liu Mang felt refreshed even after being kicked out...

……

……

With four games in five days, the Eagles' rest began.

On February 2st, the day when the Eagles and the Clippers played, Liu Mang came to the Staples Center for training early.

The team's tactical training was arranged in the afternoon, and other players were taking a good rest. Liu Mang brought Emmanuel to the arena for training.

The players rested, but the coaching staff still had to work. After Liu Mang practiced for a while, the coaching staff also came to the Staples Center.

"Ace, practice less and rest more. The next game will be very difficult, and you need to put in more effort in the game." Coach Kruger saw that Liu Mang really came one step ahead, and urged.

"I know, I went back after practicing two sets of shots, why are you here... Hey, isn't this little Jimmy, good morning." Liu Mang saw Jimmy Butler, and then remembered that Jimmy Butler went to school in California.

"Boss Ace, I'm here to train with you!" Jimmy Butler excitedly took off his jacket and pants, and he had already put on his jersey and shorts inside.

"It's this kid. Originally we planned to work in the hotel, this kid came to the hotel early this morning to harass me." Coach Kruger was blaming, but his tone was full of pampering.

"Hey, just because of a brat, coach, you brought him so unprincipled." Liu Mang said savoringly.

I'm so sorry for this kid. Liu Mang was suddenly very upset with Jimmy Butler. Now that this kid has kept up with his nutrition, his body has grown very fast. He has grown back the height that he had been "suppressed" by malnutrition before. Before he turned 16, he was almost 1.9 meters tall, almost catching up with Liu Mang's height.

But this is not the key point, the key point is that Coach Kruger only favored him in the past, but now he has a younger brother!

"Little Jimmy, do you want to train with me?" Liu Mang suddenly had an idea.

"Of course! I haven't trained with Boss Ace for a long time. The opponents in high school are too weak!" Jimmy Butler's tone was a little smug.

This is normal. Anyone who can enter the NBA, even the water cooler administrator, is one of the top 500 players in the world. If the high school is not dominant, the NBA, let alone the NBA, and the NCAA school team will not be able to enter.

All those selected by the NBA, or even those who were not selected, were once the pride of heaven in a certain place.

"Oh...well, you go to warm up, Emmanuel, help little Jimmy stretch." Liu Mang agreed to the training with Jimmy Butler.

"Got it! I warm up every game, and I can play 40 minutes a game!" Physical fitness monster Jimmy Butler responded excitedly, and hurriedly dragged Emmanuel, who was yawning, to warm up.

Coach Kruger saw that the two children were as "harmonious and friendly" as before, smiled, and took Stockton, Mike Woodson, and Chip Engelland to the lounge arranged by the Clippers to continue discussing reinforcement candidates and contact some favorite targets.

This time period is the time when many veterans want to hold their thighs before retiring. The Eagles are still short of a spot. Many veterans are ready to negotiate a buyout with the team and join the championship team. The Eagles are naturally one of the first choices. After the All-Star Weekend, many weak teams have released the right to contact other teams for veterans who intend to leave the team early in order to save wages.

The Eagles have to make a decision quickly, otherwise all the good veterans will be snatched away by other championship teams.

Ten minutes later, Jimmy Butler excitedly came to the half court where Liu Mang was practicing shooting, and waited for Liu Mang's group of shooting practice to finish, and immediately said excitedly: "Boss Ace, let's start sparring! I want to fight you one-on-one!"

"One-on-one?" Liu Mang smiled a little strangely, "Okay, you go first..."

Liu Mang kicked the extra ball out of half court, picked up the last one, and threw it to Jimmy Butler.

Jimmy Butler is very excited now. He is about to finish his freshman year of high school. Thanks to a better living environment and an excellent instructor and godfather like Coach Kruger, he has already entered the top [-] players among high school students in the United States after his freshman year.

Jimmy Butler is shaking with the ball, this is the most difficult challenge!The man in front of him whom he regarded as his elder brother was the one he admired and most wanted to defeat.

Liu Mang clapped his hands, indicating that Jimmy Butler could start.

Jimmy Butler started dribbling the ball and saw that Liu Mang's whole body was full of defensive loopholes, except that he was hunched over with his hands on his knees, he didn't look like a player at all.

Jimmy Butler felt underestimated, became ruthless, and rushed to the inside!

From extremely quiet to extremely fast, Liu Mang pressed on Jimmy Butler.

Jimmy Butler felt the tremendous power coming from Liu Mang's body, he didn't hesitate, just squeezed to the basket and flew to the basket...

"Ding...the hot pot feast triggers at level 5..."

"Snapped……"

Not only did Liu Mang not despise Jimmy Butler, but he was completely focused!Even the skill was triggered, the slap completely covered the ball, and the ball flew directly until it hit the wall!

Jimmy Butler looked at the smile on Liu Mang's face, that kind of evil smile. When he watched the live broadcast of the Eagles game at the high school coach's house where he was boarding, mainly when he watched the game between the Eagles and the Cavaliers, Jimmy Butler saw Liu Mang's smile countless times.

Jimmy Butler felt Liu Mang's deep malice!

Liu Mang picked up the ball that bounced off the wall and threw it to Jimmy Butler: "Come on, little Jimmy, keep going, the game has just begun..."

Jimmy Butler saw that Liu Mang was so serious, and he just wanted to cry: Boss, do you need to be so serious to a high school student?
However, Jimmy Butler, as Liu Mang expected, did not hesitate!
Liu Mang has long known that Jimmy Butler is not someone who is easily defeated, but seeing that Jimmy Butler seems to have entered the top [-] in the United States, he seems a little complacent.

The improvement of the living environment will inevitably have some impact, so Liu Mang is ready to make this younger brother realize the reality.

It's definitely not better to be jealous of Coach Kruger's younger brother Jimmy!Liu Mang absolutely does not admit this.

Then, Jimmy Butler began one of the darkest mornings of his basketball career...

……

The coaching staff, who were having a meeting in the lounge next to the training ground, suddenly heard a roar: "Fuck your basketball dream!"

Coach Kruger dropped the pen in his hand. It seemed that only Liu Mang and his precious son were training on the court. Liu Mang's excited voice must be abusive.

And it's so exaggerated!
What about the two brothers who agreed to love each other?

When Liu Mang's parents visited him under the leadership of Levia, Coach Kruger gave each of them a big gold watch!

But... Surprisingly, Jimmy Butler's unwilling roar was heard next: "Boss Ace, come again! I will definitely score a goal!"

Coach Kruger was about to stand up when he sat down again.

"This kid is really similar to Ace back then."
