The Knicks are so different, sitting in the world's largest city, and this city is also one of the world's largest basketball atmospheres in the big city, the ball market is exaggerated, the Knicks' earning power is comparable to the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, one of the largest TV stations in North America, the American cable TV is their own home, and the live TV income alone has a profit of more than 100 million US dollars a year, which is more profitable than the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball in New York and the New York Giants of the NFL.

But compared to the two superteams in New York, the Knicks are so different that they can be described as "mavericks".

The home games of the Yankees and the Giants were all tsunami, the fans were extremely enthusiastic, and the fans were even more crazy in the playoffs.

In the Knicks' home playoffs today, the fans are also very enthusiastic, and they are also a tsunami, but the call given is for the opponent!

"Ding...... Madison King Trigger: Every time the host plays a game at Madison Square Garden, Madison Square Garden becomes the host's home field. ”

When Liu Mang entered the player tunnel, the system prompt came!

When the Eagles stepped onto the court at Madison Square Garden, a tsunami of cheers came over the Eagles as visitors.

Ratliff was the first to play, and the cheers were quite average, and when Liu Mang came out, he was startled, feeling that the fans here were more enthusiastic than at home?

When Rashid Wallace came out and cheered became ordinary, Liu Mang understood that there was no harm in this without comparison! At Phillips Arena, the highest cheer from the fans was Rasheed Wallace!

Liu Mang suddenly felt so good!

On the other side of the player tunnel, the mentality of the home team players waiting to come out is about to explode!

What does this mean?

In the past, although Liu Mang almost every time he came here, he turned against him, but it didn't happen, but when the game started, the fans would still give face to the home team players, but this game hasn't started yet, and the fans have directly defected!

The Knicks players had a bad feeling in their minds......

When the lights on the away team's tunnel dimmed, the home team's players' tunnel lights on, and the Knicks' benches lined up on both sides of the players' tunnel, the scene resounded with overwhelming boos!

Some of the boos were given by fans from other places who came to watch the game, and some were real Knicks fans, including die-hard fans, who were dissatisfied with this group of players, and although the Knicks made the playoffs this year, the fans felt ashamed.

I didn't think so, but being beaten 2-0 by the Eagles and Liu Mang's dominance in this stadium, the fans felt too embarrassed!

The last team with a lower percentage of winning than the Knicks in the playoffs was the Spurs and Bulls in the 85-86 season, the Spurs won 35 that year, the Bulls won 30, and the Spurs in the 87-88 season, with 31 wins.

Now, the Knicks can't even look down on their own fans to make the playoffs with such a record.

The Knicks players started badly and played hard, and Marbury, who was the last to play, walked to the bench without high-fiveing his teammates.

received cheers at Madison Square Garden, in the past, among the Eagles players, it was Liu Mang's own light, and now the Eagles players are also following Liu Mang, and the Eagles players are very excited.

ESPN、

. T

ABC TV, the three TV stations that broadcast the most NBA games, did not broadcast the game live, but CNN, which broadcasts the game exclusively for the Knicks, broadcast the game live on its own, and it is still broadcast live in the United States......

It's not for nothing that players want to play at Madison Square Garden, it's just that fewer and fewer top players want to be Knicks players.

Liu Mang is ready to "go wild" here today, and he is ready to do big things, just when he was discussing with his teammates about the way to play for a while, the system prompt came!

"Ding...... Temporary Mission Release: Lone Wolf. ”

"Stephen Marbury is in unprecedented despair and anger because of his host, and he is ready to give it a go and play his last peak in the next game, which is the peak moment of Stephen Marbury's career. Mission: Lone wolf trigger. ”

"Lone Wolf: The host needs to suppress the opponent in the next game with Stephen Marbury and win the game, the mission reward: 10,000 superstar points. Failure Penalty: The King of Madison buff fails. ”

I'll it!

Liu Mang still has a vague impression that Marbury did play well in the playoffs this season, in the original history, this year's Knicks met the Nets in the first round and was swept, but Marbury was in the opposite position with Kidd, although the shooting rate was not good, but it was indeed his best personal performance in the playoffs, and because it was the first year to return to New York to play in his birthplace, Marbury, who was given the title of Son of New York, performed very positively this year and played really well, but this year's playoffs are his peak, even if theoretically, When he should continue to be at the top in the next twenty-eight and twenty-nine years, he was not as strong as the twenty-seven years old.

Liu Mang, who originally felt undoubted about defeating the Knicks, was full of confidence and felt very relaxed, but at this moment, his expression became serious.

Liu Mang looked at the bench on the Knicks' side, Marbury felt Liu Mang's eyes, and also looked at Liu Mang, and when the two looked at each other, Liu Mang didn't feel too much hatred from Marbury.

Marbury and Liu Mang have played six times this year, and all six times were beaten by Liu Mang, although Marbury's character is not good, but in basketball, Marbury has served Liu Mang, and only serves.

In Marbury's eyes, it was that desperate loneliness, that kind of loneliness that made people feel cold!

The current Marbury is no longer in the mood of going against Liu Mang or breaking the jar, but wants to save his dignity!

Marbury didn't go to warm up, and the boos from the fans pierced him deeply, and he originally thought that he would return to New York and lead the team back to the playoffs, worthy of the title of the son of New York, because in the past two years, the Knicks have been developing a trend of getting worse and worse year by year, and he has reversed this trend when he returns...... At least for the time being, this trend has been put to a halt to the growing deterioration.

However, he had no idea that the home fans would turn against each other from the very beginning of the game!

Madison Square Garden fans love to turn against each other, which has been a thing for a long time, but it is basically two situations, one is that the away team players come to play against the sky, such as Jordan once scored 55 points, the Magic briefly returned to play here in the 95-96 season, Jordan came to play here in the retirement season, and the Hawks slaughtered 70 points, but there was no such situation as a defection from the beginning.

Especially in the playoffs, even if a player comes here to play against the sky, it is all boos.

And his Marbury led his hometown team to the playoffs for the first time, but he was booed at home! Or was he booed at the beginning of the game, which stung Marbury deeply.

Glancing at Marbury and feeling an aura that seemed to be completely different from before, Liu Mang put away his restless heart.

It's not that Liu Mang is afraid of Marbury, even if Marbury is at the peak, the current Liu Mang is not false, one-on-one Liu Mang has the confidence to have a tie with Marbury, and even he is a little stronger, plus his teammates are stronger on their side, so putting away his restless heart is not because of fear, nor because of fear of the strength of the Knicks.

Rather, respect for Marbury!

Facing the lone wolf's final solo dance?

Liu Mang feels very honored!

……

The pre-game activities were over, Liu Mang came to the technical table to touch the magnesium powder, and Marbury also happened to touch the magnesium powder, when the two stood together, the head coaches of the two teams were hanging in their hearts, don't have another conflict.

Fans are also watching a good show, they support Liu Mang and cheer for him, but they don't treat Liu Mang as the home team, but to disgust the current Knicks, of course, liking Liu Mang as a player is also one thing.

Seeing Liu Mang and Marbury standing together, thinking that the two had clashed several times before, the fans at the scene were expecting the two to clash, but unexpectedly, the two of them each smeared magnesium powder and did not speak, Liu Mang went to hug after punching his chest with Boozer's small fist, and Marbury came to his free throw line to wait for the jump ball.

Fans are very surprised, Liu Mang and Marbury, these two are synonymous with being troublesome and good-tempered, and they have always had hatred, and nothing happened when they stood together, which is strange!

Coach Krueger breathed a sigh of relief, but Coach Wilkens felt weird, but he didn't care too much, he felt that his head coach position was almost like this, even if he was fired by the Knicks, he would still get the remaining three years of salary.

Coach Wilkens, who has experienced the biggest wrong choice in his life in the past few years, has already seen it and plans to take New York's money and then retire, that is, New York's salary of 5 million a year is too tempting, otherwise he will not accept this hot job that discredits his coaching resume.

The head coach who has been ridiculed the most in recent years is Coach Wilkens, who left the Hawks, the Hawks rose, went to the Raptors, and the Raptors, who only played to the seventh tie with the overall runner-up last season and only lost in the final kill, immediately began to collapse, and when he left the Raptors, the Raptors had been pushed to rebuild......

Coupled with the two years of coaching the Knicks, Coach Wilkens' coaching career will probably come to an end......

"System boss, use Francis's star card." Coming to the free throw line and waiting for the jump ball, Liu Mang used Francis's star card.

"Ding...... The host uses the Steve Francis Peak Star Card, which is time-sensitive for this game, with an ability rating of 86, an offensive rating of 90, and a defensive rating of 73...... The match degree is 70%, and the bonus attributes are strength, bounce, explosiveness, ......"

"Ding...... After calculation, after using the Steve Francis Star Card, the host's strength increased to 85, the bounce increased to 94, and the explosive power of the back hit was greatly increased by ......"

Sure enough, as Liu Mang expected, the Francis star card can be improved, mainly because of strength and bounce, and Francis does not have any particularly outstanding skills, compared with Iverson, who is also known for his breakthroughs, Iverson relies on technology and speed and the threat brought by excellent mid-range shots, and excellent technology allows Iverson to average 26 points per game at the age of 33 and play all season, which was used by the Nuggets to exchange for Billups.

Francis's skills are not impossible, but they are all based on physical fitness, and once his physical fitness declines, his strength will be like an avalanche, which is also the key reason why he almost can't play immediately when he reaches 30.

But there is also something unexpected, that is, Francis, who actually has the ability to hit back!

I haven't seen it!

Liu Mang didn't expect that the improvement of explosiveness actually improved the explosiveness of the back hit!

The starting lineup on the Hawks' side is still the same, with Liu Mang, Prince, Raheem, Rashid Wallace, and Ratliff starting the game.

On the Knicks' side, Coach Wilkens didn't want to make too many adjustments, just finish the playoffs and wait to be fired.

Re-entering the veteran Mutombo as a sign of respect, Coach Wilkens and Mutombo are old friends, and the two have a good mentor-apprentice relationship, and Mutombo's peak season was playing under Coach Wilkens.

The Knicks fielded starting lineups from Marbury, Anfernee Hardaway, Shanton Anderson, Kurt Thomas, and Mutombo.

Liu Mang saw Rashid Wallace and Mutombo go to the center circle to jump the ball, and the referee threw the ball into the air with a whistle, and today Rashid Wallace did not miss, and the Hawks won the first jump ball in the playoffs in their career!

Liu Mang received the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt, and an opponent blocked it! It's not Shanton Anderson, it's Marbury!

It's kind of interesting!

Liu Mang was surprised when he was blocked by Marbury, it was actually this guy!

It wasn't just Liu Mang who was surprised, but the Knicks players and even fans were surprised by Marbury's defensive enthusiasm today.

Marbury stuck to Liu Mang and wanted to press the steal, trying to rely on his body to press Liu Mang, in terms of body, Marbury has confidence in Liu Mang, but he doesn't like to defend, and it is still good to press defense.

However, this time, Marbury was very active in trying to suppress Liu Mang's movements, but was forcibly squeezed by Liu Mang and retreated!

Marbury's strength of 80 is no worse than Liu Mang in a normal state, and it is still okay to block defense, but now, Liu Mang uses Francis's star card, facing Marbury, who is not known for his strength, Liu Mang is like a small tank, running over Marbury and rushing directly to the frontcourt!

Beat the air!

Marbury chased after Liu Mang, but it was useless, after Liu Mang ran Marbury away, there was no one in the front court, Liu Mang started to ride alone at level 5 trigger, Marbury's active blocking, but gave Liu Mang the opportunity to trigger a single ride!

Liu Mang rushed to the free throw line, jumped high, picked the ball round, and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand!

The scene was full of cheers!

Break at the beginning!

Marbury wanted to block Liu Mang but was ruthlessly run over, which made the fans boiling!

If it is the usual Marbury, if he is passed like this, he will be immediately deflated, and there will be a deflated performance on the offensive end, or he will clash with the opponent, and he will be very emotional as a player.

But today, instead of thundering or despairing, Marbury picked up the ball and threw it to Shanton Anderson, who ran back, and then received the serve and pushed forward.

Liu Mang waited for Marbury to push in, gesturing with his teammates and exchanging defenses.

Liu Mang won't play any heads-up in a big event like the playoffs, he just has to go all out! Crush your opponents!

After Marbury arrived in the frontcourt, he broke through without any hesitation, and it was much more difficult to prevent Marbury's breakthrough than to defend Francis, this guy has three points! Liu Mang could only choose to stick to the defense, and then was overtaken by Marbury's continuous footsteps.

When Marbury burst into the middle distance, he was blocked by Rahim, who was also behind Rashid Wallace of Kurt Thomas, and on the other side, with Prince close on the other side, Anfernee Hardaway had no desire to run in today's home atmosphere, coupled with the first two defeats and the huge gap in the team's strength.

Marbury felt Liu Mang catching up behind him, Rahim's sense of space and timing to block the defense were too good, Marbury couldn't break in, and forced in to find a hat, only Shanton Anderson was vacated.

The Hawks' defensive strategy was to force Marbury to pass to Shanton Anderson!

Marbury judged the Hawks' defensive strategy in an instant, and instead of passing to Shanton Anderson, who only shot 20 percent from the field in the first two games of the playoffs, he chose to pull up a strong shot!

Marbury faced Raheem's reinforcement and strengthened the mid-range shot!

Rahim's interference was in place, Marbury's shooting was seriously interfered with, and he was forced to lean back, and Liu Mang, who caught up, slapped Marbury's ball from the back of Marbury's head into Rahim's arms with a slap when Marbury's ball was just thrown out!

After Liu Mang caught up with Marbury, the fans at the scene let out a "wow......" sound, the speed of the outbreak was too fast!

After landing on the ground, Liu Mang kicked his right leg and immediately rushed towards the front court, Marbury's first reaction was to grab the ball in Rahim's hand, Rahim immediately threw it to the front court, and Marbury immediately turned around and chased Liu Mang.

But he couldn't catch up, Liu Mang rushed to the front court and received the ball, and gently put the ball into the basket with both hands before Marbury caught up!

4-0 in the opening game!

Marbury silently went to pick up the ball, silently singled, trying to find a teammate, but the teammate has now lost motivation and watched Marbury single.

Marbury's passing and emergency stop options are good, but the Hawks can't stand up to the two of them defending him, and both of them are top-notch! Especially Raheem, he is the top in the league in terms of supplementing and assisting in defense!

Soon the score was pulled away by the Hawks, but Marbury never gave up, holding the ball and throwing it, passing the ball when he had the opportunity, except for Shanton Anderson, who really has no scoring ability and can dunk dunks, Marbury is willing to pass, but the opponent really has no chance and no motivation to run out of the opportunity.

So Marbury could only throw and throw, and Liu Mang wondered if this guy was going to make the strongest iron king in a single playoff game!

Slander to slander, seeing Marbury doing his best, Liu Ming felt a kind of "sadness".

At this moment, Liu Mang felt from Marbury, only the feeling of sadness is greater than death, in Liu Mang's view, Marbury does not lack competitiveness, but his idea wants to achieve good results, his strength is really not enough.

In addition to Marbury's personality is too weird, his fighting spirit has always been there, and now Marbury's teammates have lost motivation and the home fans have defected, Liu Mang feels Marbury's heartfelt sadness.

Liu Mang was very sympathetic to Marbury's experience, and in the face of this situation, Liu Mang could only choose...... Beat the other party to death!

With that in mind, let's make Marbury's pathos a little more miserable! Wouldn't it be better to beat Marbury to feel the superiority of socialism earlier, and let Mr. Commissar appear earlier?

Ask for a monthly pass, and the third one will be killed...... Go back for a meal, there's another chapter in the evening
