1179. The Walkers are coming
In the past 30 years, the only person in the NBA who can compete with Kobe Bryant is the legendary man, Michael Jordan, in the 1986-1987 season, set a record of 14.4 iron per game that Liu Mang could hardly match, but this year, Jordan can only bow to the wind!
Kobe averaged 14.5 iron per game, setting a new record for iron per game since the merger of the NBA and ABA!
When Liu Mang saw Kobe's iron data, he was also taken aback, it was terrible! He thought that he had been like that last year, and he only averaged 14.1 irons per game, how did he make 14.5 irons per game......
Liu Mang checked Yao Ming's data by the way, Yao Ming played 75 games, averaged 14 shots per game, 61 percent shooting, averaged 8.5 shots per game, and averaged 22 points and 11 boards per game.
Yao Ming's number of shots is not as good as Kobe's number of irons!
Liu Mang calculated, if he gave Yao Ming the opportunity to shoot Kobe Bryant, Yao Ming would average 44 points per game!
Liu Mang checked Kobe's specific data, averaging 27.3 shots per game, averaging 12.8 shots per game, a shooting rate of 46.9 percent, and an average of 36.1 points per game.
Liu Mang understood that Kobe Bryant found that it was difficult for him to take the traditional route and surpass Jordan, so he took an alternative route!
Create a record that no one can break!
Liu Mang and Iverson were at their peak in the iron season, and it was difficult to compete with Kobe, so they could only bow to the upper hand......

On April 19th, after Liu Mang experienced a day of exhaustion and half-death, he slept well and recovered his matching nerves.
I didn't get up until half past seven in the morning on the 20th, and the little Lori fell asleep next to Liu Mang, and the little Lori was washed up at six o'clock and went down to find Liu Mang to go for a morning run, but I saw that Liu Mang was sleeping soundly, so I didn't bother Liu Mang, and fell asleep next to Liu Mang.
Quickly woke up the little Lori who was dazed and fell asleep, ate something simply, and sent the little Lori and the bodyguard to school, Liu Mang also came to the Phillips Arena and began to prepare for the opponent in the first round of the playoffs.
There are still traces of yesterday's thank-you activities at the Phillips Arena, not that it was not cleaned up, but that there were too many people involved, and there were still a lot of debris on the street outside the stadium.
More than 50,000 people participated in the Eagles raffle yesterday to give away 10 first-tier season tickets, and the trash that fans threw on the streets today has not been cleaned up.
I have to say that this can be regarded as income generation, but the labor of the US imperialists to clean up the streets is still very expensive.
Liu Mang came to the stadium to warm up and started shooting training, and at nine o'clock, his teammates came one after another.
At 10 o'clock, there was a tactical meeting with the Pacers in the first round of the playoffs, and in the afternoon the coaching staff took a break to give the players a break.
For the Eagles, the 73ers bring huge popularity and income, but for the Eagles players, there are some troubles with the record being too good, and there are too many activities to participate in, which causes physical impact.
The Pacers, who only had a 39-43 record in the first round of the playoffs, the Hawks coaching staff didn't do much training and could relax a little and let the players rest for the playoffs opener on the 21st.
Home court advantage in all series is important for the Eagles to not have to travel long distances to play on the road in the first game of each series.
After the tactical meeting, most of the teammates went home to rest, only Granger, who was a rookie, stayed to accompany Liu Mang to train two sets of shots, Granger felt very silent to Liu Mang, not much to say, but very hard, which Liu Mang appreciated.
Liu Mang practiced shooting for an hour in the afternoon, and was ready to go home to rest and watch the footage of the Pacers, tomorrow is the opening game of the playoffs.
……
"Ace, do you think I can get the best sixth man?"
"Ace, my performance should be okay, right?"
"I didn't win the best sixth man last year, but I really want to win it this year......"
“……”
“……”
Liu Mang listened to Jason Terry's chatter and seemed to be asking him, but Jason Terry's mouth didn't stop, and Liu Mang couldn't answer when he wanted to.
Yesterday, the whole Eagles team looked tired because of many activities on the 19th, and Liu Mang was still a little worried, but now it seems that the teammates are mainly psychologically exhausted.
This morning, after Liu Mang got the trophy of the assist king sent by NBA officials, Jason Terry was not calm.
Last year, Ben Gordon snatched the best sixth man, and Jason Terry was depressed and didn't win the best sixth man for two consecutive years like Liu Mang.
And this year, Jason Terry is even more worried, last year he was the Eagles' No. 2 scorer, this year he is only the No. 4 scorer, in the regular season he played around in garbage time with a water cooler lineup, and when he made his stats low, he didn't feel anything, and he was quite happy.
But when it came to the playoffs, when it came to awards, Jason Terry was starting to get off his shoulders.
Liu Mang originally wanted to comfort Jason Terry, it doesn't matter if he doesn't win the award, and his record is so good, the media will definitely vote in favor of him, but he can't interject the words, this guy just wants to find someone to listen to him.
"Ace, hey, it's all my fault, I'm too careless, I knew to score two more points per game...... Eh, Ace, don't go, I haven't finished my sentence yet, why don't you comfort me......"
Comfort your head! Have you given the master a chance to speak? Liu Mang didn't care, and left Jason Terry, who had broken thoughts, to discuss the playoff style with Maddy.
"Tracy, let's change the way we play in the playoffs!" Liu Mang said to Maddie.
"I think so, too, you have too much of the ball in the regular season, and it's easy to target in the playoffs." Maddie replied.
Liu Mang won the assist king in the regular season, purely from the perspective of the task, Maddie won the assist king in the regular season last year, and the average assists per game in the playoffs were only 7.
The players who won the championship at the same time as the assist king, except for Chamberlain and Magic Johnson, Liu Mang really doesn't remember any other player who has done this.
As Maddie said, the ball is concentrated in the hands of one player, and it is too easy to target.
However, the team of the player who generally gets the assist king is not bad, and it is one of the playoff seeded teams, and it is impossible for them to concentrate the ball less in the playoffs, most of the players who get the assist king, teammates point to him to pass and score, maybe it's not that they don't understand that it's better to disperse the ball in the playoffs, like a troika or OK combination, and before the 08 Big Three Rondo grew up in the original time and space, and the Big Three of the Heat, the ball is relatively scattered, After Rondo grew up, the Celtics concentrated the ball, especially after 2010, the Big Three have not yet fully aged but Rondo's ball is too concentrated, and the Celtics playoffs were an avalanche of strength after Rondo's injury, and they were beaten 4 to 1 by the Heat Triumvirate.
But the Eagles are different!
Liu Mang is a bad person, if he says that the style of play changes, then he has to change!
What is the purpose of finding so many talented teammates and waiting patiently for them to grow up, isn't it because they are talented and grass-tolerant!
Talented and changeable tactics is an important reason why Liu Mang has found so many young and talented teammates.
Otherwise, if you want to talk about strength and consistency, finding a group of veterans in their early 30s is important for the defending champions, but last summer the Hawks didn't make a big trade and didn't use Iguodala or Josh Smith as a bargaining chip in exchange for those high-quality role players, because the rookie bonus and the talented and powerful young players were more comfortable with his popping up ideas.
Just like at the beginning of the regular season, the first in the league who played well, Liu Mang suddenly said that if he wanted to win the assist king, his teammates had to change with him.
Liu Mang and Maddie discussed it and went to find Coach Kruger, fortunately, in yesterday's tactical meeting, Coach Kruger arranged the tactical play that did not regard Liu Mang and Maddie as the king of assists, that is, the regular Liu Mang, Maddy, Rasheed Wallace's starting three-core tactical play, with the experience of Maddie winning the assist king last year, Coach Kruger also knows how to arrange tactics for Liu Mang.
The team is talented, but it is so capricious.
At ten o'clock in the afternoon, the Hawks conducted two 40-minute tactical training sessions for the Pacers, after lunch, the players rested in the afternoon, watched video research, and in the evening, the Hawks began to warm up, and the playoffs have come!
……
……
At 7:50 p.m. on April 21, 2006, forty minutes before the start of the game at 8:30 p.m., the players of both teams had already entered.
In the Hawks' playoff opener, there is one very important thing, the regular season championship flag!
With this year's regular season opener, the league officially used to win over Chinese fans, the Eagles management also learned, discussed with the league official, made two flags, the Eagles against Biao, each side has a small Eagles against Biao, the Eagles red and blue bottom of the championship flag, one side is English, the other is Chinese, written 2005-2006 regular season championship and record, as well as the name of the team's coaching staff, players, owners.
Although he knew that this was the love of the management to win over Chinese fans, and more importantly, to envelop him, and wanted to create a deeper player-team relationship with him, Liu Mang still felt very excited!
Liu Mang knew that he was already tied to the Eagles, and the team did everything that could be good for him.
But Liu Mang has long been ready, he wants to be like Michael Jordan, turn the Hawks into the Bulls, and be remembered by NBA fans forever They had a glorious time, and even, he wants the Hawks to become the third team in NBA history in his career, it is impossible to catch up with the Lakers and Celtics, that is not something that a generation of players can do, the Lakers and Celtics have gone through several generations of players to have such a glorious history.
