Liu Mang's abuse of Filton caused a sensation, and Jordan's vision of choosing people was once again questioned.

Jordan, who was far away in Charlotte, wanted to cry when he watched the news on the Internet: Why are all the players I choose like this? No! It's not a matter of my vision, Kwame just played well, it's just that the team didn't fit ......

And Filton is really not bad, it's just that Paul is too dazzling, which makes Filton look very ordinary, but it's just average, not to the level of water.

Jordan believed in his vision, and the fans found a suitable reason for him.

Jordan regrets not choosing Chris Paul, even if he firmly believes in his vision, he can see that Paul and Felton are not stars of the same level, and Paul is a player who wants to become a superstar.

But who knew at the time! Paul's prediction pick is around the fifth pick, Crazy March's performance has been very poor, he was knocked out of the first round by Nelson in 04, and only got 22 points and 9 assists in the second round of 30 shooting in 05, and was eliminated again, the comments of the media and experts are very consistent, Paul can't play a tough battle, and he can't be trusted at critical moments.

Choosing Paul was a gamble, and Felton, who fought all the way to win the NCAA championship without being favored, was the most favored of the three point guards at that time.

And Felton is the star of Charlotte's local university, who else can Jordan choose if he doesn't choose?

Therefore, Jordan chose to believe the arguments of the fans and the media, and felt that Liu Mang was unhappy that he did not choose Paul.

Jordan hated in his heart: "This kid, didn't he just let you earn a little less commission?" Didn't I recommend Chris to sign my brand? As for abusing Raymond so much? ”

……

……

On the second day of winning ten consecutive victories, after Liu Mang finished running with Little Lori in the morning, he took a shower and looked at the forum first, and saw that he abused Felton to continue to dominate the first hot post, and all kinds of speculations came out, and the mainstream was that he was unhappy that Jordan didn't choose Paul.

This makes Liu Mang very painful, Jordan is not an atmospheric person!

Liu Mang estimated that the next time he met this teacher, the other party would not have a good face.

But what can be done about it?

Liu Mang opened the system and looked at the star card, there was one more Felton's, it was better than nothing, at least he was not deducted 10,000 superstar values.

The focus is on that new mission!

"Natal position suppression: The NBA2005 draft is a rare year for point guards, and the host needs to prove that he is not only the best point guard in the NBA now, but also the best point guard in the NBA for many years to come. Mission Objective 1: Lock in the status of the NBA's No. 1 point guard. Mission Reward: A random star card for the current first-class star and above point guards. Mission Objective 2: Make rookie point guards feel unbeatable. Reward: TBD. ”

The natal position was suppressed, and after Liu Mang read the introduction later, he knew why this task came.

There were a lot of point guards and two-way guards drafted in 2005, and they were all the kind that could play for many years.

In addition to the second to fourth picks, there are Nate Robinson, Jarrett Jack, Louis Williams, Monta Ellis and others.

It's rare to see so many talented point guards or two-way guards in NBA history.

However, mission goal 1 makes Liu Mang feel very depressed, not only does the system think so, but fans also think that Liu Mang is not a competent point guard, scoring too many points, and even averaging 3 assists per game in a single season, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a point guard, but it is a point guard.

This task is considered to be matched with the previous task of winning the assist king.

Liu Mang is one of the top three players in the league, and now no one will doubt it, the point is what Liu Mang's position is, and even the two-way guard can't define Liu Mang's position, but he has always played point guard.

Liu Mang needs to prove that he can't get assists, and he can't play the position of traditional point guard, he just doesn't want to.

The goal is very clear, Liu Mang is also ready to learn this aspect well, it is always good to have more comprehensive technology.

Moreover, Liu Mang wants to win the MVP!

It is not easy to win the scoring champion to hit the MVP again, Jordan's 10-time scoring champion is only 5 MVPs, and the odds are half to half, not to mention O'Neal and Nash and Kobe Bryant competing for MVP, and Kobe and James competing for the scoring title.

The key is that this is not in line with the team's current situation, Liu Mang gradually broadened his thinking from the task and the needs of the team, and found that if he wanted to win the MVP, he had to work hard from the assist king.

But you have to guarantee victory to win the assist king, so you can't be in a hurry and want to eat fat in one go and take your time.

Play the weak team with more assists, play the strong team normally, it's really not good to just give the ball to Maddie, it's good to have your own Pippen.

……

On the 22nd, Liu Mang practiced shooting at home in the morning, watched videos in the afternoon, and slept well at night, and on the morning of the 23rd, he went to the team to have a team meeting, and the coaching staff has been fine-tuning the team's tactics.

In the afternoon, tactical training for the Pistons was conducted, and at half past seven in the evening, the first regular season meeting with the Pistons began.

Since the start of the new season, the Pistons have a good 8-5 record and are in third place in the East, but it is clear that the Pistons' defense has declined and they are not as strong as last season.

The main reason is that Ben Wallace's defense has suddenly declined, of course, he is still one of the best defensive centers in the league, but all statistics have dropped significantly, especially blocks and steals, both of which have hit a new low in the six years since joining the Pistons, averaging only 1 steal and 1.5 blocks per game, as well as 7 points and 10 rebounds per game, which are the lowest in recent years.

And the Pistons are more problematic now, Chris Bosh is facing an early contract extension, Ben Wallace's 6-year 36 million contract signed in 2000 expires this season, and Ben Wallace is 31 years old and wants a long-term contract with a high salary, but the purpose of the Pistons management is not to pay the luxury tax, and it is basically impossible to renew Bosh and Ben Wallace at the same time, and in the summer of 07, Billups' contract will also expire, and Antonio McDyce's five-year full middle class is only in the second year, Hamilton has a multi-million contract ......

Before the Pistons could reach their peak, they ushered in a difficult situation that they had to face head-on, and the salary exploded!

Billups and Ben Wallace both have at least 10 million annual salaries, and Bosh is even more indispensable, and they are about to usher in a salary explosion after not winning the championship in the best two years.

Liu Mang looked at the other party's ability evaluation, Billups 91, peak, Hamilton 87, peak, Bosh 89, still growing, proper future top star, Ben Wallace, 80, the peak has passed but there is room to spare.

In terms of strength, the Pistons have not declined significantly, but their record is far worse than the start of last season.

Liu Mang thought of all kinds of rumors about the Pistons' contract renewal, which has been there since the summer, the Pistons are unwilling to give Ben Wallace a long-term contract, they gave Ben Wallace a two-year contract of 20 million, and Ben Wallace and the Pistons management have been at odds.

The problem was in front of the Pistons management, and the focus was on the money.

If it weren't for the Pistons' strong roster, which also accounted for the rookie bonuses of Billups and Ben Wallace, Bosh and Delfino, they would have had so many problems this season.

However, because of this, the Pistons only got an 8-5 record when the starting schedule was very good, and they could rely on pure strength to crush the weak team, but to play the strong team, the Pistons started to the present, and the 6 teams with a winning rate of more than 50% only won the Wizards, and the rest were all defeated!

Playing the Hawks away, the Pistons' performance was really ...... There's nothing to say about it, it's all about exposing their problems this season.

The Eagles attach great importance to this game, after all, they are third in the East and must play well, but they didn't expect that the opponent fell without much effort!

The Hawks played a 33-14 score in the first quarter, and the opponent didn't play like a team with more than 60 wins last season!

In fact, although the salary issue is important, no money is absolutely impossible, and they are more persistent in wanting more money than the original Pistons team in Liu Mang's memory, mainly because they can't see the hope of staying in the team!

Sometimes it's not just a matter of strength whether a team collapses, maybe they're still in the top five or even better in the league, but there's a mountain in front of them like that, and they don't want to get together and work hard.

The Hawks have been sideways in front of them for four years, playing them four years in a row, and the Pistons players have not had any hope of beating the Hawks since last season's Eastern Conference finals, so it is okay to stay with the team, but they have to pay more.

Liu Mang was also ready to attack a wave, according to the previous style of play, and use points to deal with the opponent, but Liu Mang scored 13 points in the first quarter, and the opponent's whole team was only one more point than him!

At the beginning of the second quarter, Liu Mang became a pass-based style of play, breaking through, attracting pinching, passing, and occasionally throwing a shot to maintain the threat.

During the break, I watched video research by myself, and after tactical training, I pulled my teammates to practice running, but the most important thing is to actually operate in the game.

ESPN's live broadcast of last season's Eastern Conference opponent game has become completely one-sided, just like the two teams have played each other in the playoffs in the past few years, 125-111, the Hawks have not much defense behind them, and Coach Kruger has been giving Liu Mang substitutions so that Liu Mang can experiment with each teammate.

Liu Mang played 40 minutes and scored 30 points on 11-of-18 shooting, along with five rebounds and 12 assists.

Liu Mang didn't expect to play the Pistons team, and he could actually play the feeling of playing a weak team.

easily won two doubles, and Liu Mang also closed the first 11-game winning streak in the opening game of his career.

On the Pistons' side, Bosh didn't know what to do, after all, he was only a third-year player, and he didn't have his own dedicated agent team like James and Liu Mang, so he could only play hard by himself in the face of the team's chaotic situation.

Bosh is already the Pistons' scoring champion this season, averaging 23 points per game, ranking second on the team in rebounds, averaging 9 rebounds per game, plus 3 assists, making great progress, but the team has suddenly entered a chaotic situation from the best and peak last season, and Bosh can only play with his head down.

This time he was killed by Liu Mang again, Bosh ...... Got used to it......

……

……

defeated the Pistons to win 11 in a row, and then ushered in the battle with the Bulls.

The Bulls have a very average roster this season, from Hinrich, Nocioni, Rohr Deng, Tyson Chandler and Ben Gordon on the bench, all quasi-first-class stars, and Liu Mang's ability evaluation is in the early 80s.

But there is no real strong point, they chose to keep Tyson Chandler for 5 years and 55 million in the summer, gave up Eddie Curry's matching rights, and lost the team's only absolute strong point.

Now the Bulls are averaging 12 points per game for Nocioni, 13 points per game for Roel Deng, 14 points per game for Hinrich, and 14.9 points per game for Ben Gordon.

Coupled with the defensive Tyson Chandler, the Bulls are the favorites to win the championship if they have a superstar, and they have a lot of quality role players who can rate 75 to 79, but they don't have a superstar.

Ben Gordon, the Jordan of the bench, is only Jordan of the bench after all.

Liu Mang led the team to easily defeat the Bulls 115-100, and he won four consecutive victories against the Bulls and was rewarded with 4,000 superstar points.

In this game, Liu Mang scored 41 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists, the second 40+ this season, and this time Liu Mang won by scoring.

The Bulls' rotation defense is very strong, Liu Mang did not organize the offense, nor did he force the offense, and last season's Maddie and Nash did not have double-doubles in assists every game.

12 wins in a row!

The Eagles are still on their way.

After 12 games, Liu Mang's data reached an average of 31 points, 5.5 boards and 7.5 assists per game, and the average number of assists per game reached the ninth in the league, second only to Maddie, who has averaged 18.5 points and 8 assists per game so far in the Hawks.

This is the first time in Liu Mang's career that he has ranked in the top 10 of the assist list.

The main reason is that the score has not declined much, which is not quite the same as Liu Mang expected, and currently ranks third in the league in scoring, behind Kobe Bryant's average of 33 points per game and James's average of 32 points per game, and those two have played more, and Liu Mang can't catch up for a while and a half.

Liu Mang's scoring has not dropped, and he feels that it has a lot to do with the team's ferocious scoring since the beginning of the season, and the team is now averaging 116.5 points per game, which is on par with the scores of the most scoring teams in the NBA in the 80s.

……

In the final game of five consecutive home games, the Hawks played the Cavaliers.

God wants the Hawks to continue their winning streak, James in the last game against the Timberwolves, was fouled by Garnett's cruel second-degree malice when he was leading by a large score, he jumped to the basket and was slapped down by Garnett's elbow on the collarbone, James was rarely angry, he was not once or twice offended, but he was not so angry, he was very careful about his image, this time he rarely got up and pushed Garnett, mainly because Garnett scolded his mother after committing a vicious crime, James loves his mother the most.

In the end, James was sent out for two technical fouls, Garnett was sent out for a second-degree malicious foul, Garnett was suspended for two games, and James was also suspended for one game because it caused a conflict between the two teams.

Without James' Cavaliers, Larry Hughes is recovering from an injury, the Cavaliers are really nothing, and the Hawks are 121-99, another big win.

……

After five consecutive home games, the Hawks have won 13 in a row!

The Hawks were full of momentum, and then on November 30th, they went to Indianapolis to play the Pacers, and they easily accepted the victory, Reggie Miller retired, Stephen Jackson didn't like Big Bird, Artest broke Big Bird's heart and was put in the fire sale ranks, Coach Carlisle felt that his life was miserable, whenever it was the best time for the team he led, he would either be fired, or this kind of thing would happen to the team, and the year would be unfavorable!

108-101, although the Pacers gave some resistance, the Hawks continued their excellent touch and excellent defense to continue their winning streak.

At the end of the first game month, the Eagles had won 14 in a row!

……

By the 2nd and 3rd of December, the Hawks had their second back-to-back of the season, playing back-to-back games against the Bobcats and Clippers in the first two of three consecutive home games.

Playing the Eagles away again, Felton was sick, and the Bobcats put him on the inactive list and didn't let him play against Liu Mang, which was very direct.

The Hawks did not let the Bobcats continue to defeat them, and Liu Mang scored 25 points, 15 assists and 7 rebounds, helping the Hawks 120-95 to beat the Bobcats again and easily win 15 consecutive victories.

The second game of the back-to-back game against the Clippers, the Clippers have been very good this season, the addition of Cassel has made them stronger, but the Hawks, who are in hot form, still easily won the victory.

Liu Mang had 33 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists, beating Brand, who scored 31 points, plus Maddy's 17 points and 13 assists to blow up Cassel, Kwame Brown 15 points and 22 boards, and the Hawks 133-125.

……

……

When the Hawks snapped a 12-game winning streak, breaking the Bulls' record of 11-game opening streak set by the Bulls in a 69-win season in the '96-97 season, fans went crazy.

When the Hawks went on a winning streak and were still undefeated in December, the NBA was the most talked about topic after the first back-to-back in December...... It's not who can end the Eagles' winning streak, it's not how many consecutive wins the Eagles can have, and the matter of playing a "championship streak" at the beginning.

But......

On the second day of the six-game winning streak, the Hawks had three days off before playing their third game of the month on December 7, the last of three consecutive home games against the Western Conference powerhouse SuperSonics.

Liu Mang and Dina returned home after running, waited for breakfast after taking a shower, and Dinah used the laptop given to Liu Mang to visit the forum, originally wanting to see how good the fans were at their uncle's team.

But I didn't expect the most popular post to be "Liu's three-point posture of stepping back is so ugly, don't you consider changing it?" 》

Things that have a relationship with the Eagles are very strange, Liu Mang is about to vomit blood when he sees this post!

Liu Mang asked depressedly: "Dinah, do you think your uncle's step-back jumper shooting action is handsome?" Did it affect the uncle's handsome appearance and chic temperament? ”

"Uncle, do you want to listen to Dinah tell the truth or comfort you?" Dinah said without stopping, tapping on the yes option, and then clicking submit.
