The afternoon training was very simple, after Liu Mang showed his hand, the team practiced the 5V5 tactical running position for a while, and Coach Krueger disbanded the training, and there was a game at seven o'clock in the evening to let the players rest.

Liu Mang returned home and drove the beautiful landlady's Lamborghini to pick up Dina and Alexia to watch TV together.

The Eagles' ball market, in general, Atlanta sports is very strong, Atlanta's NFL team Falcons are one of the strongest teams in American football, occupying most of the Atlanta market, of course, American football and basketball are not in conflict, and it is very common for many local die-hard sports fans to like the Eagles and Falcons together.

In addition, there are Major League Baseball teams Atlanta-Warriors and Hockey NHL's Songbirds, all four major leagues Atlanta have, but these two teams are average, not opponents of the Hawks and Falcons, and their popularity is far less than these two teams.

However, even so, the Hawks' attendance is only a little over 90 percent, and in the middle of the NBA, it is not as good as Cleveland, a small town with only one big four league team, and Cleveland has an attendance rate in the top five in the league, no matter how bad the results are.

Liu Mang went to Coach Kruger to ask for two seats in the front court and was not refused, anyway, playing a fish belly like the Knicks, the attendance rate was average, and the ticket price was cheap, so Liu Mang saved more than a thousand US dollars.

Liu Mang drove to the gate of Dinah's school, and just parked, he found two women, one big and one small, wearing masks and hats, hurrying over.

"Aida-senpai? Dinah? Liu Mang opened the car door, and two beautiful women with their heads wrapped tightly came up.

"Ace go quickly, there are reporters everywhere!" Alexia hurriedly urged.

"Journalists?" Liu Mang looked around, and sure enough, he found the paparazzi cowering behind the newsstand on the street corner.

Depend on! When did the master get so much attention, and there were still paparazzi to squat!

Liu Mang didn't know that because the NFL reached the middle of the season in November, the players were tired and the fans were aesthetically fatigued, and the attention of the NFL from late October to November was the lowest in their entire regular season, which is also the reason why the NBA started the regular season at the end of October and early November, which can steal some attention, and the Hawks have little attention except for Jason Terry's big mouth and a bit of news, although Rahim is a top star and even a regular of the dream team, But there has been no popularity, American Weekly unexpectedly photographed Liu Mang's gossip, and the local media in Atlanta were naturally ready to shoot something after being instructed by the Eagles boss, no matter how small the news was, it was meat!

Liu Mang immediately started the engine and drove to the Phillips Arena.

Although it was a little annoying to be guarded by the paparazzi, Liu Mang felt very strange: "Senior sister, Dinah, isn't it just being photographed by reporters?" What are you doing with your head wrapped up, isn't it good to get in the newspaper or something? ”

Away from the school, the big and small beauties breathed a sigh of relief, and Alexia and Dinah took off their hats and masks.

"God! Ace, don't you know how much it bothers us ordinary people to be on gossip magazines! My phone was almost blown up by my friends last night, and I unplugged the phone! Alexia grumbled.

"That's right, that's right, those classmates recognized it as Dinah, and they all came to surround Dinah, and they were annoyed, but Dinah didn't admit it, if Dinah's beautiful face was photographed, those classmates would definitely annoy Dina to death!" Dinah Lori is also complaining.

"......" Liu Mang ignored the little Lori holding his face, too narcissistic!

But......

"Senior sister, you have changed a lot." Liu Mang sighed a little, although he didn't experience it personally, but the impression of this senior sister in his memory, that is to be in the limelight in everything, how could Alexia avoid reporters in the past, if a reporter wants to shoot her, she will definitely wear the best clothes and makeup for several hours.

"People change." Alexia straightened her hat-toted hair, "Is Ace's ticket free?" ”

"Of course, although I am still a substitute, I still have to get two tickets." Liu Mang decisively put his face together, the loss is that the attention of today's game is average, and the management keeps the spare tickets for business partners or officials who may come to see the game, and no one asks for them, so he can easily get the tickets in the third row opposite the two technical tables.

In fact, at the beginning, Coach Kruger gave a sideline ticket, but Liu Mang felt that the sideline ticket was too dangerous, and the one that required a commitment contract was required, which was the kind of contract that only needed compensation from the insurance company in case of injury by a player.

"That's good, even if our Eagles tickets are cheap, they have to be hundreds of courtside tickets! Miss Ben saved another penny! ”

"......" Liu Mang didn't continue to speak, and it would not be a good thing to say more.

When he arrived at a shopping mall about a kilometer away from Phillips Arena, Liu Mang parked his car there and did not directly enjoy the arena, because Alexia and Dinah Lori both extremely refused to be known to have a good relationship with NBA players to watch the game together.

gave the ticket to Alexia, and asked her to help take care of Dinah and Lori, Liu Mang returned to the Phillips Center alone, and the two beauties, one big and one small, wanted to buy some snacks to watch the game, mainly to enter the stadium separately from Liu Mang.

Who wouldn't want to hit the streets with a big beauty? Liu Mang didn't think much about the others, mainly because he had a lot of face!

Unfortunately, he returned to the stadium alone, and to Liu Mang's surprise, Coach Kruger was actually waiting for him outside the locker room.

"Coach, are you waiting for me?" Liu Mang said in surprise.

was originally a relation, but after Coach Kruger selected Liu Mang into the Eagles, he did not show too much enthusiasm, but was more strict.

Coach Krueger said very directly: "Ace, you prepare well, you may play in regular time and use your speed to defend Houston, can you do it?" This is your chance to sit at the end of the bench and move forward. ”

Regular time debut?

That's great! Liu Mang couldn't wait.

But Liu Mang was dumbfounded in the second half of the sentence, anti-Alan Houston? Is that the protagonist of the first generation of amnesty clauses, Alan Houston?

Depend on! This year's new Mr. 100 million yuan! Last season's All-Star Guards!

Liu Mang is a little crying without tears, coach, you play with me!

……

……

Liu Mang stood by the players' tunnel in training clothes and high-fived today's starters, and today he was still honestly sitting on the bench, waiting for the coach to turn over the brand.

However, today the coach told him in advance that he would turn over his own brand, and Liu Mang was a little excited.

Looking at the outside line of the Knicks, Liu Mang really felt incredible, how did the Knicks become the grave of future stars with such a core lineup?

Look at the Knicks' outside line.

Mark Jackson, the all-time point guard who just surpassed Magic Johnson to rank third on the assists list.

All-Star scoring guard Alan Houston, who averages 20+ per game.

The main outside line of the Dream Team, who averages 20+4+4 per game, is a former superstar who was selected to the first team of the All-Star team in his sophomore year, and Ratrio Sprewell, a madman who was still selected as an All-Star at the age of 31 last season.

Just looking at this outside line, the Eagles' scalp is tingling!

If these three guys were two or three years younger, Jordan and Pippen would be hurt to deal with them.

Fortunately, all three guys have entered the end of their careers, Alan Houston just got a big contract, but Liu Mang knows that he is not far from retirement, and in another two or three years, the Knicks will force the league to make a Houston clause.

But right now, Alan Houston is not injured, he is in his prime at 30 years old, and Madman and Mark Jackson, although old, are still tricky for the Hawks.

Alan Houston, in particular, is so good at running.
