From today on is the king

Chapter 966 965. Second defense for a while!
Became the third victim of 60+ points in a single game in the playoffs in history. The Pistons saw Liu Mang receiving the ball and were going to attack like crazy. Liu Mang made good use of this position to attract the defense and pass the vision from both sides.

The Pistons focused on defense and pressure in this game, but for Liu Mang's defense, no matter how much the coaching staff emphasized, they couldn't help flanking. Liu Mang passed the ball after being flanked. Although not all of them turned into assists, McGrady would pass the ball to him. Liu Mang caught the ball and tore the opponent's defense in half!
Conversely, the offense of the Pistons began to sluggish. There was a feeling of discouragement.

At the end of the half, the Eagles led 47 to 38 by 9 points, mainly because they were very stable!The Eagles were inspired with the strongest fighting spirit and unprecedented emphasis on the Pistons. They played a steady offense and defense without fooling around.

Only halfway through the game, Pistons head coach Philip Saunders was sprayed by Barkley, saying that he was desperate to win the last game and broke the Pistons.

Kenny Smith, on the other hand, is relatively professional and thinks that Coach Sanders’ approach is fine. The Pistons played against the Eagles in the past three years had a characteristic, that is, no matter how well they played in the regular season, they would be killed when they met the Eagles.

If you still maintain the same style of play and the mentality of wanting to win steadily, the Pistons have no chance to win the Eagles. Coach Saunders’ approach is correct in Kenny Smith’s view.
In this game, the Pistons completely lost the spirit of the first game, while the Eagles were aroused by the Pistons in the first game. The strongest desire to win, playing very well on both offense and defense.

The game seemed dull. The Eagles attached great importance to the Pistons, so they played a solid defense. On the offensive end, Liu Mang also focused on passing the ball, using the Pistons' defensive tendencies to slowly grind the ground, so the game was very dull.

In the end, the game that made the fans drowsy was finally over. The Eagles kept the 97-point difference 85 to 10 and ended the game.

Liu Mang scored 18 points and 9 assists, Tracy McGrady scored 17 points and 7 assists, Jason and Terry scored 15 points, Kwame Brown scored 13 points, and Persson scored 9 points. The Hawks scored in double figures and defeated the Pistons steadily for two consecutive victories.

Coach Saunders understands the source of the desperation expressed by the Pistons players.

As Kenny Smith analyzed in the game, he wanted to use the first game to boost morale, but unfortunately failed.

In the first game, Coach Sanders used their familiarity with the characteristics of the Eagles to target the Eagles, but in the second game, he found that the Eagles were more familiar with them!That kind of steady feeling makes people feel hopeless!
Even Liu Mang didn't say anything about Delfino's villain in the last game. He used Delfino to defend Liu Mang alone and was directly fouled by Bosh when Liu Mang rushed into the paint. Coach Saunders deliberately refused to let Delfino apologize in front of the media. Let Delfino, a sunny boy in Argentina's golden generation, be attacked by the media just to anger Liu Mang.

The opponent has already played their skills in beating them!

Not afraid of losing miserably, but afraid of the feeling of being held in the palm of the other party!Coach Sanders can't help it, and it's hard for a smart woman to live without rice!The lineup is only five starters, and the morale is not there yet...

The third head coach of the Pistons that Liu Mang met in his career, hit the street again...

The first game was so exciting, and the fans watched it so excitedly, but in the second game, the Eagles won just like that, and the fans didn't know what to say. The discussion about the Eastern Conference Finals on the Internet, except for Liu Mang's 60 points, suddenly became cold...

Is so different, the Eagles game is always beyond people's expectations.

ESPN and Time Warner, who had snatched the live broadcast rights of the Eagles' Eastern Conference finals series, didn't know whether to be happy or sad. Their ratings in the second game reached a new high so far in the playoffs of this season, but in the next two games... They all felt the despair of the Pistons, and the ratings absolutely plummeted...

Everything is so familiar, it has been like this for the past few years...

……

……

The second day after the Eagles finished Game 5, on May 17th, the second game day of the series between the Suns and the Spurs, the Eagles had already boarded a plane to Detroit at [-]:[-] in the morning.

Today is the time to announce the best team and the best defensive team, but they are already on the plane, and the results will not be known until they arrive in Detroit.

For McGrady, this feeling is like waiting for the lottery after buying lottery tickets with a lot of money, and he can't know the result at the first time, so he feels itchy in his heart.

On the plane, McGrady sat next to Liu Mang and asked again: "Ace, do you think I have a chance to be selected?"

"You can't be selected! You are only the third guard! Do I have to tell the truth?" Liu Mang couldn't bear it anymore, and asked this question no less than ten times this morning.

"..." McGrady's heart hurts so badly that he can't breathe. Don't be so direct. Just try to comfort him like the previous few times. He also knows that whether he fights with Liu Mang or Nash, he can't fight.

At this time, Coach Kruger, who was next to the window on the right, took over the conversation: "Tracey, you still have a chance?"

McGrady smiled embarrassingly: "Coach, you don't need to comfort me, I know."

"No, I'm not comforting you." Coach Kruger took out the 439-man NBA roster from his bag yesterday when he voted. "Although I don't know if the list of players for the best team is the same. When I voted for the best defensive team, your name was in the forward list. I voted for you. You did a good job defensively this year."

"Huh?" Liu Mang took the list and looked at it, it was true!This guy... It seems that the All-Star is also placed in the forward position, so it is possible that his team has two first-team players?
McGrady snatched the list of players who voted for the best defensive team from Liu Mang, and found the names of players starting with T from the forwards. He really has himself!Maddie fell into ecstasy!
……

When he arrived at the hotel in Detroit, McGrady couldn't wait to borrow Liu Mang's computer and opened the homepage of the NBA's official website. The headlines were the winners of the best team and best defensive team.

Liu Mang was unanimously selected to the first team of the best team and got a perfect score of 500!
And Steve Nash got 471 points and only 91 first votes!
McGrady scored 416 points and Tim Duncan, who scored 405 points, was selected for the team together!
O'Neal is still stable at the center position, with 466 points selected for the first team.

For the second team, Iverson, Francis, Raheem, Nowitzki, Garnett, and Stoudemire were selected. Garnett and Raheem both received 297 points, tied for fourth among forwards, and Stoudemire was placed in the center position.

The best team and the best defensive team, for most players, cannot improve their popularity, not as useful as an all-star substitute, but they are very effective for balloon stars. This kind of award is used to make popular stars more popular, so Tracy McGrady and Stoudemire are placed in more favorable positions.

Tracy McGrady was placed at the forward position to avoid competing with Liu Mang and Nash. Stoudemire could not compete with those big guys at the forward position, but at the center, Yao Ming and Ben Wallace could not shake him in the second team based on his record and statistics.

Billups, Wade, Kobe, James, Bosh, Yao Ming, and Ben Wallace were selected for the third team. Yao Ming and Ben Wallace had the same number of votes, and Kobe and Billups had the same number of votes.

After a lapse of two years, McGrady was selected again for a while, and she was about to cry... My heart aches!Looking at the excited and cheering teammates behind him, he silently covered the wallet in his underwear pocket on his chest...

Happy to be happy, but after being happy, the wallet hurts...

In terms of the best defensive team, Larry Hughes, Prince, Garnett, Duncan, and Ben Wallace won the award together.

Without Bowen and Artest blew himself up, Prince finally had a taste of defense.

Liu Mang was also happy for Prince, but when he saw the second defense, he was unexpected!

The center selected for the second defense was Marcus Camby. This is no problem. Kwame Brown regrettably lost to Camby, who was second in the blocked shots list by 11 points.

The forwards of the second defense, Kirilenko and Sean Marion were selected.

Sean Marion's selection in the Suns is simply an anomaly, but his defensive efficiency is so good, he is almost catching up with Duncan. Marion's defensive efficiency this season is 5.6, Duncan is 5.7, Garnett is 5.9...

The defenders in the second defense are amazing, and the scores are extremely low!Kidd, Wade, and Billups, the three major point guards all had 68 points and were selected for a second defense spot. Liu Mang scored 43 points and was selected for another guard spot for the second defense...

这年头教练投票选最佳防守阵容，后卫线是5分、3分、2分三张票乘以二，后卫方面一共600分，4个名额愣是投出了6个人……

Liu Mang felt that he had completely taken advantage of it!
If Wade, Billups, and Kidd get one less vote or even the third vote, those three will not be affected, but Liu Mang will not be selected for the second defense!

Liu Mang remembered one thing, seeing his teammates making a fuss around McGrady, he decisively wanted to turn off the computer and leave.

At this time, Kwame Brown, who had seen the top second defense center without his own position, was unwilling to come up and watch it again, and happened to see the picture of Liu Mang being selected for the second defense with 39 points.

Kwame Brown is vomiting blood!
The center position has a total of 300 points. Ben Wallace was unanimously selected for the first defense. With 150 points remaining, he scored 52 points but failed to enter the second defense. He lost to Camby with 63 points.

And Liu Mang only scored 39 points, and he was actually selected for the second defense!

"Boss! The world is so unfair! I have 13 points more than you. Why are you the second defense? I lost the election!" Kwame Brown cried miserably.

There is no reason!
You call a hammer!Liu Mang really wanted to kick this bastard to death!I knew I wouldn't bring this bastard to play!

The teammates who were discussing with McGrady what to have fun in the summer, all of a sudden focused their attention on Liu Mang... Liu Mang felt the same as McGrady, being selected as the second defense was not happy, it was a surprise!But the heart... no, it's the wallet that hurts!
