297. Ruthless New York fan
It is said that Lakers fans are optimistic, but Knicks fans are really optimistic.
Cheer for the team when you win, cheer for the stars of the other team who come to play when you lose.
Although Liu Mang was unhappy, when Liu Mang entered, he saw the banner instead......
"Ace, come to the big city and enjoy the spotlight!"
Directly behind the technical desk, a group of avid Knicks fans wore Ewing's No. 33 jersey and held a large banner.
If Knicks fans don't wear Ewing's jerseys, Liu Mang may still be a little moved.
But......
After the 99-00 game, Ewing was driven away by the Knicks, and it was really not just that the Knicks management was unkind, but the fans were laughing at the aging Ewing.
Optimistic and unforgiving.
That's what New York fans are.
This is the characteristic of this city, only like the best, the players who like it are still at the peak of their ancestors, and if they can't, they will be abandoned, and the richest city in the world will also show the beauty and ugliness of human nature to the extreme.
Liu Mang waved at the fans, drawing cheers and boos mixed in.
"New York has your fans too." Jason Terry said sourly.
"Of course, I'm a big star!" Liu Mang said with a smile.
"Cut ......"
The Eagles didn't boo as expected when they came out, and although there was a middle finger at them, it was generally fine.
When the New York team played, there was no overwhelming cheer as expected, and just like Ewing's final year in New York, Knicks fans were not happy with the performances of Alan Houston, Madman Sprewell, and others.
It's not as good as the Marbury era where almost every game is a fan defection, but it's not much better.
Liu Mang finally understood why so many stars wanted to play away here, and the fans here ...... Weird ......
……
……
The game began with the Eagles' away game against Madison, which was broadcast live from Time Warner, CNN and CBS, the joint sports channel of CBS.
"Fans and friends are welcome to tune in to the Atlanta Hawks' away game against the New York Knicks, which will be broadcast live on Time Warner Sports. Today's commentators are me, Hubie Sr., and Knicks legend Bernard. Bernard, do you think the Knicks can hold on to this home win? Hubby Brown speaks the opening sentence expertly, full of energy, not at all like a frighteningly thin 70-year-old.
How much does the Knicks legend have a dislike for his parent team?
It can be seen from the guest invited by Time Warner, Bernard King.
Time Warner's commentary duo is coach Hubi Brown and Bernard King, who was snatched by Jordan after the Knicks averaged 32 points per game to win their first scoring title, and he fell into blood like Elgin Baylor and Dominic Wilkins.
However, compared to Baylor and the human movie essence, Bernard King was still lucky, grabbing one before Jordan dominated the scoring charts.
Although he was in his prime with the Knicks, Bernard King was not friendly to the Knicks at all: "Wow, maybe, the Knicks may take advantage of the Hawks' injury center to stay at home, but the current Hawks are not in the strongest state, and they are the first in the East when they are the strongest." ”
"Maybe Bernard is right......" Hubby Brown echoed.
Knicks fans in front of the TV have been angry, and they all think that Time Warner is deliberately going against the Knicks and sending such a pair.
Hubby Brown actually had a mentor-apprentice relationship with Bernard King before, the two happened to work for the Knicks at the same time, Hubby Brown took Bernard King to play the best years of his career, just after Bernard King won the scoring title, the ligament ruptured and reimbursed, and the Knicks traded Bernard King away and fired Hubby Brown.
And Hubby Brown ...... He was the head coach of the Eagles before, and he won the first coach of the year in his coaching career with the Eagles in the 70s, so how do you think the Eagles feel good......
In this game, in the live broadcast of Time Warner, which was watched by more people, the Eagles had commentators and guests who favored them for the first time, and the Hawks fans in front of the TV were about to burst into tears, finally not the damn fat man!
……
……
The race has begun.
The Eagles, for their part, continued to replace the injured Ratliff with Alan Henderson, with the other four starters unchanged.
The Knicks fielded a lineup of Mark Jackson, Alan Houston, Sprewell, Kurt Thomas and O'Cella Harrington.
Raheem went to jump the ball this time, and after losing the jump ball in the past few times Alan Henderson and Mohammed took turns jumping the ball, Raheem said that it was better to come as a buddy.
After a lapse of ten days, the Eagles finally won the jump ball again, Raheem won the jump ball over Harrington's head, and the Eagles attacked first.
After the opening period, Raheem and Jason Terry played a small offensive climax, and the two joined forces to open the game with a wave of 8-2.
But the good times didn't last long, when Sprewell began to break through the Hawks' inside, Sprewell, who was extremely strong in sudden shooting ability, caused continuous kills, due to Ratliff's absence, Muhammad had to take on more defensive tasks, Raheem defended Sprewell alone, but he couldn't stand the madman who broke out when he returned to the big city of New York, Rahim and Muhammad played half of the first quarter and had two fouls on their backs.
Liu Mang's side was still thinking about what kind of performance was the most dazzling person on the field, when he saw his two main frontcourt players hitting the street.
Raheem wanted to show too much, and was seized by the old and hot-headed madman to cause consecutive fouls and fall into a foul crisis.
Generally speaking, the first quarter is the official timeout, when Liu Mang comes on the court, and the previous period is the time for Raheem and Jason Terry to let go, and the coach must not only consider the best combination of players, but also consider the emotions of the stars in charge, and appropriately increase their shots.
And Liu Mang is about to become a "ball bully", it really looks like a black hole from the scene, and he holds the ball for a long time.
However, the score has been overtaken by the Knicks, and the Hawks are already two points behind 11-13, and Coach Kruger can only call a timeout for substitutions.
Liu Mang didn't understand what the so-called most dazzling star on the court meant, so he didn't want to, the game mattered! The coach called a timeout, indicating that the master was going to play!
It's really a delay in my master's thinking!
Looking at Rahim and Muhammad, who were walking towards the bench with gloomy faces, Liu Mang said loudly: "Ou, Sharif, Nazr, you have disappointed me so much!" It looks like I, the greatest rookie, will save you! ”
