660. The biggest winner is a small melon

After playing back-to-back games between the Nets and the Bucks, the Hawks had a day off, and on January 3 and 4, they immediately ushered in the second back-to-back in five days and four games.

As the highest-rated team in the first month of the Chinese New Year, the Hawks just caught up with the live broadcast time of the four games on Wednesday and Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, the new contract reached between the court and the NBA, the number of live broadcasts in the new year has increased, except for the special situation of All-Star Weekend and Christmas War, the rest of the time is broadcast live four days a week, and sometimes there can be up to three games, but at least one, the tail of the Spring Festival is not over before the fifteenth day of the first month, The Hawks have been used by the NBA as the tail of the Spring Festival to drive the ratings of the Chinese market.

Of course, from the first day to the seventh day of the previous junior high school, the Rockets team was just as sad, they fought 5 games in 7 days......

In the two games of No. 3 and No. 4, the Hawks welcomed the Clippers and Nuggets at home.

Compared to the first two back-to-back opponents in 5 days and 4 games, the Eagles played more difficult in these two games!

At half past eight o'clock in the evening of the 3rd, the Hawks Clippers game, in this game, the Clippers put Elton Brand in the center position, and sent Chris Carman, the No. 8 pick this season, who had been playing off the bench, to start, using his shooting ability to play a space power forward, and Corey Margety, who has the best physical fitness in the league at the small forward position and may be more exaggerated than James, Carter, and Richard Jefferson. and Big Q Quentin Richardson and Kenyon Doolin, two outside shooters who shoot 36 percent from three-point range, to make adjustments to the Hawks' lineup.

Ratliffe was rested for this game, and the Clippers expected that.

The game was very anxious from the beginning, the Hawks continued to play the Bucks' cold touch, and their physical fitness was also affected by playing two strong opponents in a row before, plus the young Kwame Brown was bullied very badly by Brand who was pushed to the center position at the beginning, Kwame Brown was pinned down by Brand, Rasheed Wallace was pulled out by Chris Carman, and Margeti is a headache for all teams in the league, too strong, if not a little shorter, the ball quotient is a little lower, and the ball is too straight to go and there are more injuries...... Rao is like this, as the Clippers' first point of possession, his style of play that makes it clear that he can't dunk and never shoot, and he still averages 21 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game with a shooting rate of 44 percent.

Seeing that Kwame Brown's single defense experience is still not enough, he can withstand Brand, but he can't stand Brand's interior skills are too good, he can play with the face and frame and the basket, and he averages 3.5 assists per game, but fortunately, after a few minutes of play, the Hawks changed Rasheed Wallace to the center position and replaced Boozer with the meat shield, which worked wonders, he is the only person on the Hawks' interior line except for Ratliff who can stand and withstand Margetty who was rushed in by Raheem, which began to limit the Clippers' offense.

The Eagles can only grind defense in this game, and everyone's shooting effect is not good, even if it is Boozer and Liu Mang's blocking, both of them continue to hit iron on the outside, and the Hawks players led by Liu Mang can only chisel under the basket again and again.

The Hawks started the game trailing by four points, 65-69.

The Hawks, who were not defeated by Marghetti's endless break-through for three quarters, sent Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Raheem, Rasheed Wallace, and Kwame Brown to the lineup in the fourth quarter, and relied on fierce defense to fight back, grinding a little bit, and finally relying on the advantage of the inside, in Rashid Wallace and Kwame Brown to guard the inside, and the two plus Rahim to protect the defensive rebound, Liu Mang rushed to the opponent's basket again and again to force shots, and changed tricks to find a way to foul early to the free throw line, Finally put the score on the back at the last minute.

Liu Mang played the whole game, 7 of 20 shots, 2 of 9 three-point shots, 13 of 16 free throws, and got 29 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, 87-84, and the Hawks reversed the Clippers to win the victory with a score of 22-15 in the final quarter.

……

After beating the Clippers and resting for 24 hours, the Hawks had a home game against the Wizards.

In the fourth game of the four games in five days, Stockton was revealed before the game and was still unable to play, the most important thing is that Liu Mang has played very high playing time in the past three games, especially playing the Clippers, the defensive end must not only defend Quentin Richardson, but also count if he makes fouls on the offensive end, and he broke through and counterattacked the basket throughout the game, and hit 33 times, and his physical condition is very worrying.

Things are a little better on the inside, with Rashid Wallace in his prime, Boozer and Kwame Brown both in their early twenties, but four games in five days have also caused fans to worry about their fitness.

Arenas also came to Atlanta with this mentality, and last month, seeing Reed take advantage of Liu Mang's absence to play a game for Liu Mang's team, Arenas couldn't be more excited.

is also a member of the young stars who were suppressed by Liu Mang, especially Arenas, who is still a rookie in the same class as Liu Mang, and was pressed even worse, Liu Mang directly teased him with the same style of play as him, and he didn't dare to face Liu Mang directly.

This time, Arenas is ready to take advantage of Liu Mang's illness to kill Liu Mang!

And then......

On the night of the game......

Liu Mang didn't seem to have any, he continued to make his debut, and he couldn't tell that he had just played 3 games in 4 days and played back-to-back games!

The Wizards watched Liu Mang, who was still alive, break through the interior again and again, his teammates were not in a good state, Liu Mang took his weird steps, again and again with the blocking and dismantling of Rashid Wallace or Boozer, and with the help of Boozer and Rasheed Wallace's mid-range shooting, he kept chiseling the inside line before the opponent changed defenses in place, and when he arrived at the inside, he was fast and slow, fast and slow, sometimes stepping to the basket, sometimes playing with a foot, and if he couldn't make a foul, he would make a foul and scare the Wizards......

The strength of the Wizards is not as good as the Clippers, the Clippers are 17-30, the Wizards are only 14-34 and the third from the bottom in the East, although they got Arenas, but the Wizards are still at the bottom of the league, and the Clippers still have Carman and Brand, Margeti The three frontcourts, when the Hawks don't feel good on the outside, the inside line gives a lot of pressure.

In addition to Arenas and Larry Hughes, the Wizards have 92 Dream Team college students Leitner and Hywood on the inside, one has poor defensive awareness and is old, and the other has defensive awareness but poor ability.

Every time Liu Mang uses Boozer or Rashid Wallace to block and break into the basket, he can turn the interior upside down, playing Arenas's team, the Hawks have learned how to play, and Liu Mang rubs Arenas, who has not fully grown up.

Liu Mang scored 25 points and 8 assists in the third quarter, and under the drive of Liu Mang, others gradually found their feelings, mainly because the more they played, the easier it became, Arenas saw that the whole Hawks team was alive under the leadership of Liu Mang, and there was no half-dead state like the last game against the Clippers.

Arenas had been a little scared by Liu Mang's abuse before, and now he felt even more desperate.

Arenas had only one thought in his mind: Why did I run away when I arrived?

After Liu Mang played the first three quarters, he went up and played for three minutes in the fourth quarter, and after the point difference was completely widened, the Wizards surrendered, Liu Mang played 39 minutes, got 27 points, 4 rebounds and 9 assists, 107-92, and the Hawks beat the Wizards to win 14 consecutive victories!

41-7, the Eagles continue to soar!

After this game, fans began to sympathize with Arenas, Liu Mang was so energetic every time he played him, and even the Eagles met his team, the whole team played very hard, Arenas was made by Liu Mang with a 7-of-19 shooting rate, plus a career-high 9 turnovers, and only 5 assists.

For such Arenas, the fans on the Hawks' side are a little distressed about Arenas, how big should this child's psychological shadow area be?

……

When playing four games in five days, the Hawks held on to their breath, even if it was so difficult to play with the Clippers, and the last two minutes to decide the winner, they did not relax, and when they played the Wizards, they fought even harder, determined to win.

But when all the five days and four battles were won, the holding back energy could no longer be held.

After playing the Wizards, the Hawks had no time to rest, and flew to the Denver Plateau the next afternoon to challenge the Nuggets on the road.

The last time the Nuggets played against the Hawks, Anthony was like an invisible man, but this time, the little melon came out!

Andre Miller, Voshan Leonard, Anthony, Kenyon Martin, Marcus Camby.

This lineup is already strong, and the Eagles' physical fitness is really to the limit, and in the fifth game of the 7th day, they came to the Denver Plateau to play away, and the environment is not adaptable, and the physical fitness is even worse.

Thereupon...... Liu Mang began a gorgeous battle to brush data.

This time, it was really not that Liu Mang forced him to throw in waves, but his teammates really couldn't bear it, only he was in good health.

The Nuggets were shocked when they saw that Liu Mang could continue to chisel, and they still looked energetic, but they found that everyone else except Liu Mang's Hawks was in a slump, and began to pack a lot of Liu Mang.

Especially Kenyon Martin, who has just returned to the Hawks for two games, seeing the Hawks is like seeing a father killer, playing with life-threatening defense.

Within a few minutes of the game, Coach Kruger found that the condition of the players was not very good, and he did not send Stockton, who had finally recovered physically, to Liu Mang, but replaced Liu Mang with a group of recruit eggs, Korver and Calderon came to open up the space, and Barnes and Kwame Brown came up together to play a small lineup, and gave Liu Mang a one-man shot, just to meet Liu Mang's idea of winning the scoring title.

Liu Mang also fought, Liu Mang scored 41 points in the whole game, the 9th 40+ time this season, tying the Hawks team history record set by Dominic Wilkins in the scoring champion season of 9 times 40+ in a single season.

But Liu Mang only made 17 of 41 shots in the whole game, which will be more than 40 percent of the shooting rate, and the rest of the Eagles are even worse, with a total of 16 of 50 shots, which is not as many as Liu Mang has scored alone.

In the end, the Hawks led by Liu Mang hated the Denver Plateau and lost to the Nuggets 79-95.

And then...... The next day, the Hawks came to Miami to play back-to-backs and take on the Heat on the road

Seeing that the Eagles just lost in Denver, Wade already has the same mind as Arenas, wanting to take advantage of Liu Mang's illness to kill Liu Mang, what a rare opportunity!

This year, the Hawks bullied teams that were weaker than their own team, and as long as the lineup was complete, it was a steady beep.

For the Heat, there are only two possibilities to win the Hawks, one is that the Hawks have core players missing, and it must be Liu Mang, and the second is that it is now, taking advantage of the Hawks' fatigue, to give the Hawks a wave of ruthlessness like the Nuggets! Especially Wade, this is his rare opportunity to defeat Liu Mang!

But Wade seemed to ignore the difference in strength between them and the Nuggets, and didn't notice that most of the main players of the Hawks almost went to Denver for a vacation, and the game didn't play for a few minutes.

Not long after the game was played, seeing the Heat team so miserable, people were surprised to find that Anthony was the biggest winner in this cruel schedule of the Hawks!
