"Carl, are you really reluctant to play for a year?"

"No, I'm tired, if I can, I want my statue to stand with John, I don't want to do it again."

"Okay, I see, I respect your choice."

"I promised John that I would come and coach your rookies next season and be a trainer to get a championship ring, which is not a name, but it's not bad."

"That's great......"

“……”

“……”

After chatting for a while and hanging up the phone with Ma Long, Liu Mang sighed.

Ma Long may have problems in his private life, his personality is not very good, and his character is not easy to say...... Belch...... When Liu Mang thought of this, he seemed to feel that Ma Long didn't seem to have anything to praise except for playing well......

However, emphasizing feelings is one of Ma Long's advantages.

Because of Stockton's championship, Jazz fans were ecstatic, when Stockton proposed to erect a statue with Malone, Jazz fans did not object, Jazz management was ready to wait for Malone to retire after retirement, give him a retired jersey and a statue, Malone hurt the feelings of Jazz fans, and Sloan, Jazz management is no problem, fans do not object, they pushed the boat together to retire the statues of the two.

According to Malone, he is in talks with Hawks management to be part of a team of trainers to coach the Eagles players in pick-and-roll drills, as well as working with Stockton to coach the Eagles players on how to stay healthy and fit.

Malone chose to join forces with Stockton again, but retreated from the field to the sidelines.

Liu Mang sighed, people's circumstances are like this, if Malone came to the Hawks last season, the Hawks would not have gotten Rasheed Wallace, the Pistons would not have chosen Bosh, Milicic would not have such a good chance, and Carter would have continued to sink in the Raptors and could not try the taste and pain of the Eastern Finals......

And the Hawks will have a harder time playing the Pistons, and if they can reach the Finals, they may face not the Lakers but the Spurs.

Of course, in the face of Spurs, it may be because of Malone, it will be easy to play...... Malone will not be without a championship, but will join hands with Stockton to win the championship and retire......

However, everything has already been like this, and after 18 years of cooperation, only one of them won the championship, which is also a regrettable beauty.

……

After sighing, Liu Mang said to the agent: "Jeff, inform the management, Carl is not coming, I can also renew the contract, you go and talk, the maximum 4+1 player option." ”

"OK, I'm going to participate in the national team training camp tomorrow, let's take a good rest today, I'm too tired from this period of activity." Schwartz has no opinion on signing for four years, after 7 years of career, Liu Mang can trigger the designated veteran clause, sign the largest contract, the NBA's income is increasing year after year, and the starting salary will be higher and higher.

Liu Mang's choice is the same as the choice of the 03 generation in the future, but Liu Mang has only played for three seasons now, and the 03 generation is to sign a second contract after playing 4 seasons, so Liu Mang's contract is willing to sign for a maximum of 5 years.

Schwartz reminded that Liu Mang is too hard, because Liu Mang is going to participate in the national team competition this year, it is an opportunity for Liu Mang to further accumulate popularity in China, Schwartz didn't even care about the rookies in the summer league, and was with Liu Mang throughout the whole process.

It's just a desperate Saburo!

On July 1st, that is, on the evening of June 30th in China, he began to resume training, and on July 2nd, he left for China with three girls at home, due to the time difference, he just arrived home on July 2nd in China, stayed for one night, and left for Shanghai on the 3rd of Beijing time, and James will be reconciled, and began a publicity activity, and the publicity activities are intermittent, and do not forget to train......

On his first trip to China, James came with cheers of enjoyment.

After the rookie season, James's popularity in the United States has been extremely high, due to the league's main promotion of the confrontation between him and Liu Mang, in the case of Kobe's popularity declining for personal reasons, Carter declining in popularity due to aesthetic fatigue and losing the slam dunk contest, James, Liu Mang, Iverson, and Maddie have become the four most popular players.

Jade, who was a little inflated, thought that he was also very popular in other countries, and when Nike asked him to follow Liu Mang as a deputy coffee, he was still dissatisfied, so he was not short of the endorsement fee of a US knife.

As a result, when I arrived at Shanghai Station, I found that all of them came to see Liu Mang, an event, a few streets outside the square, tens of thousands of people were crowded, thanks to Nike and the Shanghai municipal department had been prepared for a long time, so there was no accident......

And James sadly found that there were people who knew him, but didn't care too much about his existence, all of them came to see Liu Mang......

Double MVP, people from their own country, fans naturally focus on Liu Mang.

James is strong, but just a rookie.

It's just Shanghai Station, James heard that this is near his hometown, and thinks it's because of this, but when he goes to Beijing, Chengdu, and Wuhan...... The farther away from the coast is in the inland cities, the less people pay attention to him as a rookie......

The grief-stricken James vowed that one day he would kill Liu Mang in the playoffs! Then he went to work as a sparring partner when Liu Mang was training......

Hearing Schwartz's suggestion, Liu Mang smiled: "It's okay, I'm better than everyone else, that is, my physical fitness, only this advantage, by the way, Jeff, how about our group nickname vote?" ”

Before returning to China, Liu Mang asked Schwartz and the Imperial Court Station to jointly organize an event, giving the Eagles stars nicknames according to the combination, and soliciting them by text messages on the Internet and the Imperial Court Sports Station, starting on July 1st, three days of collection time, 7 days of voting time, today is July 10th, 12 o'clock at noon has ended, and the announced time will be after Liu Mang joins the national training team, but the names of the nicknames with the most votes, Schwartz has long known, but Liu Mang started from the 3rd, four domestic stations, island countries, There are a total of six stations in Singapore for publicity, and I have to keep training, so I don't have time to care about this.

"Here, Ace, take your time, I'll go and contact the Hawks management first, have a good rest today, and we'll go to the basketball center together tomorrow."

“OK。”

Liu Mang opened the folder left by Schwartz, and there was a piece of paper inside.

Liu Mang saw his own combination with Jason Terry, his own combination with Maddie, the combination of Jason Terry and Maddie, and his own combination with Rashid Wallace...... The nicknames of various duos, some nicknames with discordant characters were directly kicked out of the candidacy, and these nicknames are quite harmonious.

It's just, why is it a little dirty?

The combination of Liu Mang himself and Jason Terry, ranked first, is the combination of six brothers.

Two people called six brothers?

The combination nickname of Jason Terry and Maddie is called the Fake Girl Group, and Liu Mang took a long time to react because Maddie's name is Tracy, which is a girl's name.

Liu Mang himself and Maddie's are okay, the Maimang combination, taken from the needle tip to Maimang, is also a combination of the two names and Chinese translations.

The combination of Liu Mang and Rashid Wallace is also okay, it is called the Ice Emperor Combination, Liu Mang's English name is Bing, and Tianzun has the meaning of emperor in it.

But every time I get to Maddie, the style of painting begins to deviate, and the nickname of the combination of Maddie and Rashid Wallace is estimated to be taken by the Sichuanese, called the Hot Girl Group......

Liu Mang saw that his nickname was generally fine, but fortunately he didn't pit himself, but it seems that he pit Maddie! When Maddie competed for the scoring title in the first two years, she had already accumulated a lot of popularity in China, which is why she was so popular.

Liu Mang hesitated, he couldn't let Maddie not know about it! They are all brothers, and they can't hide it from Maddie, so Liu Mang integrated the English translations of the names of these nicknames and the reasons for Liu Mang's own guesses, as well as the data of the highest single online voting vote of more than 150,000 votes, and the data of more than 70,000 paid votes of the imperial court sports station into an Excel list and sent an email to Maddie......

……

……

On July 11, Liu Mang officially joined the national team!

Wei Yuanli, the director of the basketball management center, brought Wang Zhizhi, Yao Ming, Battle, Guo Shiqiang and other veterans who will be selected for the national team to support Liu Mang.

With Yao Ming taking the lead in supporting, Liu Mang has the title of NBA double MVP, and the agent Schwartz, who has been dealing with the Blue Association for a long time for Wang Zhizhi's problem and has enough experience to get along with the Chinese Blue Association, joined the national team, Liu Mang didn't worry about anything.

Liu Mang only needs to be responsible for playing, this kind of performance of not causing trouble and not playing big names also made Wei Yuanli breathe a sigh of relief, unlike Cheng Lanxin to develop CBA in order to generate income, Wei Yuanli attaches more importance to political performance, and when he took office, he cut the schedule of the CBA that was originally increased by Cheng Lanxin in half, and put the national team's record in the first place, regardless of the income, anyway, the country supports ......

There is a core combination of Liu Mang and Yao Ming, high-quality role players like Wang Zhizhi who have gained a firm foothold in the NBA, and Battle, a player with NBA resume, and now the main lineup of the men's basketball team is still composed of players from the older generation of Bayi Dynasty and Yao Ming's Shanghai Sharks and other teams, and there is a big difference from the group of guys who can still drink beer and smoke cigarettes the night before the tournament after making a lot of money in the future. It's everything, it's all about honor!

Liu Mang's addition is bound to occupy a 12-man squad, but the older generation will almost certainly be selected into the 12-man squad and the 3-man waitlist and the national team veterans who were squeezed from the 12-man squad to the waitlist, are not dissatisfied, the Olympic Games waitlist is different from the NBA's inactive list, this list is a list of people who can be replaced from the submitted 12-man squad before the deadline stipulated before the Olympic Games, and after the deadline, the people on the waitlist will not be able to participate in the Olympics, even if someone is injured, and only the rest of the people can play, international competitions, it is really possible to play five, as long as there are people on one side, you must finish the game......

Moreover, this older generation of players, the training attitude is completely different from what Liu Mang imagined, in the morning the Basketball Association announced the 21-person training list, and in the afternoon Liu Mang was pulled to the training ground by the group of seniors before 75 who wanted to see Liu Mang's strength......

……

"Ace, come, let's have fun." Li Nan hooked Liu Mangde's shoulder very enthusiastically.

"Well, okay, what do you want to practice?" Liu Mang did not refuse. 、

"Let's make it one to three! I may not be as good as you in the rest, but I'm still a little confident in three points, big pig, you come too. Li Nan said with a smile.

When Zhu Fangyu heard the nickname of Big Pig, she was very desperate! He wanted to ask Liu Mang for an autograph, but he was embarrassed to speak.

"Okay." Liu Mang didn't say much.

Originally, Li Nan was worried that Liu Mang would play a big name, after all, although Liu Mang is popular, his reputation is very average, and he is a womanizer, a shameless person, and arrogant...... are all labels of Liu Mang.

But Liu Mang didn't have a little severance, he didn't steal the limelight during the press conference, after the press conference in the morning, had lunch, and called Liu Mang to train together, Liu Mang didn't refuse, he didn't mean to play a big name, Li Nan's impression of Liu Mang suddenly improved.

It's an interesting human mentality that when the expectation of something is infinitely low, as long as it's normal, it feels like it's going to end greatly.

Liu Mang is just a very normal performance of a junior entering the national team, and in the eyes of the seniors, he has a good feeling.

Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi, two active NBA players who know how capable Liu Mang is, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Liu Mang got along well with the older generation of players.

Liu Mang did not refuse, he also wanted to see the strength of the players in the national team, but after he joined the national team in the morning, the system began to upgrade, and it took three days to adjust to the mode of the international league and calculate the strength of the players in the international rules.

To join the national team, Liu Mang also learned about this group of teammates who had never known before, so Schwartz tried his best to find the information of the players who might eventually stay in the national team to play the Olympics, and learned that before him, the two best three-pointers of the Chinese men's basketball team, one is the 30-year-old CBA all-time three-point king Li Nan, and the other is the CBA new three-point king, Zhu Fangyu, who scored 100 three-pointers in a single season to break the CBA single-season record and just helped the Guangdong team start the dynasty. Li Nan, who is at his peak, must be the starting point guard, and Zhu Fangyu relies on his very dominant performance in the CBA, and is basically the starter at the small forward position.

Two of the strongest three-pointers in the CBA, want to challenge the NBA three-point champion.

Therefore, Liu Mang did not refuse the invitation of the two to fight, and was ready to try three points.

Li Nan and Zhu Fangyu, in Liu Mang's opinion, these two are the key people who pick up the pass from him and Yao Ming, and the other is, of course, Wang Zhizhi, not surprisingly, Liu Mang thinks that the five of them will be the starters of the Olympic Games.

"Oh oh ......" Zhang Jinsong, the most active power forward in the national team, jumped out, screamed, and then said excitedly: "The three-point duel between the NBA three-point king and the CBA's two three-point kings, I will be the referee, and in 100 seconds, the most three-point shots will win." ”

All three of them said OK, and they were all full of fighting spirit.

Li Nan didn't want to embarrass the older generation of players, so he was ready to challenge Liu Mang from his strongest side, so that Liu Mang would also know what they were good at.

Change into the national team training uniform, after the warm-up, the first to come up and shoot, it was Li Nan, the shooting action is very standard, the shooting speed is fast, nicknamed Xiao Li Feidao, when he receives the ball, he throws it out, the average shooting time is about 1 second, and the final result is 71 hits!

Liu Mang was dumbfounded!

100 seconds to shoot, 71 shots?

Among them, there was a period of time when he shot so quickly, Li Nan scored more than 30 in a row, and the other teammates watching the game were counting loudly!

Then there is Zhu Fangyu, who is more accurate than Li Nan...... Throw in 75 in 100 seconds!

Hey, hey, Liu Mang looked at the two of them and felt like he was dreaming......

Seeing Li Nan and Zhu Fangyu high-five in celebration, Liu Mang finally felt the feeling of being targeted!

These two have discussed it in advance, and they may have practiced countless times! It's for this moment!

However, it's not scientific!

How can it be so accurate? If it can be so accurate, what CBA will it do, and how can there be a situation of infinite iron on the outside in the Olympics?

Liu Mang didn't understand.

was originally full of confidence, but Liu Mang now feels that he is about to lose face......

In the sound of other people's coaxing, Liu Mang walked to the top of the three-point line...... Wait a minute...... Liu Mang felt the feeling of standing here, why was it so wonderful?

After receiving the ball, Liu Mang had a chance to try to throw, and then Liu Mang needed to call the password, the password was "ball", and the staff of the national team would send him a ball.

Liu Mang hesitated, thinking that this feeling was too amazing, so he followed the feeling, in the gaze of others, there was no jump shot like Li Nanhe, and if he jumped up, the speed of 0.7 or 0.8 seconds was not guaranteed, Liu Mang just bent his knee and threw the ball out.

Seeing the ball fall into the basket, Liu Mang breathed a sigh of relief, and sure enough, it was so!

Liu Mang completely forgot that the three-point line of the FIBA is too different from the NBA, and this top arc is the feeling of standing far away and making free throws! It is much easier to practice, of course, it means that the performance of training is much better, because the three-point line is much shorter, and it is the time of the game that the shooting space will be smaller, and the three-point shooting will be relatively more difficult to shoot accurately!

Seeing Liu Mang standing and shooting, Li Nan and Zhu Fangyu's hearts suddenly changed, and they also understood that in Liu Mang's basketball world, the three-point line is only a little longer than the free throw line!

Then, the scene became silent, only Liu Mang's constant cry of "ball ball" and the sound of "snap" of catching the ball, as well as the sound of the ball hitting the basket or passing through the frame and the sound of the ball falling on the floor, as well as the sound of the national team staff picking up the ball and throwing it into the basket.

Jump shot, Liu Mang's current limit catch-and-shoot jump shot speed is 0.7 seconds, but the free throw line keeps throwing without thinking about the penalty loss will be one less point, then the speed will be faster!

The hit rate is not as good as those two guys, however, Liu Mang can throw two in a second! I can see that the people around me are talking loudly and silently!
