On the western side, the Mavericks are in first place in the West.

He lost two games and ranked first in the league with a 15-2 record.

This year, there is a sense of déjà vu that the two bulls will be the first, and the two cows in the east and west are the first.

Although the Lakers are still recovering from an injury and their latest expectation is to return before the Christmas game, the Lakers are still in second place in the West with 12 wins and 4 losses.

The Spurs are 11-5 and ranked third in the West, the situation is not as good as expected, 30 days have passed, Artest has not the slightest tendency to integrate, but this is terrifying, the Spurs are still in third place in the West!

Fourth in the West, the SuperSonics took advantage of the two-year advantage, this time overtaken by the Nuggets led by the two guns, and the Nuggets became the leader of the Atlantic Division with 10 wins and 6 losses, ranking fourth.

The Utah Jazz are in fifth place with 9 wins and 7 losses, and the SuperSonics are in sixth place with a 9-7 loss against the Jazz.

Surprisingly, the Rockets, a group of rookie teams, started the season with an 8-8 record, ranking eighth in the West.

What's even more surprising is ...... The Suns are also 8-8 and in seventh place in the West!

From seventh in the West to tenth in the West, they are all 8-8, with the Warriors in ninth and the Clippers in tenth.

The strong teams that are aiming to win the championship all have a feeling of crying with joy, and finally after a summer when they resisted trading with the Hawks except for the Rockets and the Suns, the Hawks did not run in quickly after changing the lineup like in the previous three years, and like other strong teams with a clear superstar core after rebuilding, they needed a run-in period and began to lose in the early part of the season!

The Eagles don't have the same dominance as they have been in the past few years!

……

……

The expression Liu Mang saw on Paul's face was desolate......

It's miserable!

In the summer, the Hornets' recruitment targets were Peja, Chandler and Garnett, and the first two were Liu Mang who asked Schwartz to go to the Hornets management to suggest reinforcement targets, but they were all snatched away by the Cavaliers!

Originally, Liu Mang gave the Hornets according to his impression that he could help Paul hit the MVP...... Then it became a key addition for James to hit the MVP in the fourth season of his career.

Paul and James are very similar, they are the kind of stars who can set the team's bottom line.

While other teams were excited about the current situation, the Hawks didn't care so much and played their own, coming to Oklahoma City on Nov. 25 to take on the Hornets on the road.

When Liu Mang arrived in Oklahoma City, Paul came to him to complain.

What Hornets don't have their own home arena, the team has no helpers, and so on, even his starting interior PJ Brown last season ran to hug Garnett's thigh to play the bench, how miserable it is.

"Boss Ace, why am I so unlucky......" Paul was a little drunk......

Liu Mang looked at Paul and didn't know what to say, he took a sip of soda, he didn't expect that Paul's helper was snatched away by James and given James a stronger teammate.

Paul was dazed, and Liu Mang put him in a taxi and returned to the hotel by himself.

The team is in good shape at the moment and is getting better.

Liu Mang has played so far this season, playing an average of 33 minutes per game, scoring 27 points, 6 boards, 6.5 assists, 1.7 blocks and 2 steals, and his performance on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends is quite good.

Maddie averaged 21 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game, which was okay.

Jason Terry averaged 15 points per game, Marion averaged 11 points and 10 boards per game, and Kwame Brown averaged 14 points and 11 boards per game......

The Hawks have led the league in rebounding this season, with a little less offensive rebounding than in the previous two seasons, but defensive rebounding has been very good this season, averaging 47 rebounds per game as a team.

The 109 points per game also ranks second in the league, behind the Warriors of the elder Nelson.

The key is the improvement of several young players.

David Lee averaged 7 points and 7 rebounds per game, making up for Rasheed Wallace's rebounding problems after his slide.

What hurts Liu Mang's most is his bench, averaging 15 minutes of playing time per game, scoring 3.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 4 assists......

After Rondo heard Liu Mang's evaluation of him in the second game of the season, he had to lose confidence in the first two games, but he was more confident in the back, and played better on the defensive end, averaging 1.7 steals per game in 15 minutes! The efficiency is higher than that of Liu Mang.

Assists and rebounds are also great, and it's just about scoring...... It's also fascinating to score as well as assist.

With a 47 percent shooting percentage, Rondo shoots very little, and knows that he can't shoot accurately, so he usually shoots under the basket, but he shoots 40 percent from the free throw line...... Occasionally, an opponent has cut the point guard!

……

On November 26, the day after Liu Mang listened to Paul's complaints, he didn't help but start because of Paul's pity, but played harder in the playing time......

Rondo, who came off the bench, also defended Paul very well, Paul only shot 5 of 13 in the whole game, got 13 points and 8 assists, and the Hawks easily defeated the Hornets 120-96, winning the 10th win of the season, improving the record to 10-5 and 66.666 percent...... 's win rate.

Originally, it was a three-game trip in the Southwest Division, Oklahoma was in the Northwest Region, and the day after playing the Hornets, the Hawks came to Houston, and then they played the Rockets and Spurs away.

No. 28 is okay against the Rockets, mainly No. 30 against the Spurs.

Duncan is the key, last year people thought Duncan was already dying, the tenth year of his career turned 30 and was plagued by injuries, the peak is about to pass...... Duncan is averaging 21 points, 10.5 rebounds, 4 assists and 2.5 blocks per game this year...... So far this season, Duncan's mid-range shooting percentage is a terrible 44.7 percent! Among the interior players who average more than 10 points per game, they are second only to Banyani's 45 percent shooting rate and Nowitzki's 46 percent shooting percentage, and they can also rank sixth in the league, second only to Nowitzki, Garnett, Baniani, Kobe, and Liu Mang!

On the defensive end, in particular, he rarely jumped, and the odds were higher when he was in the background, but Duncan's defensive efficiency returned.

After playing the worst performance of his career, Duncan has the feeling of dominating both offensive and defensive ends again......

Before leaving for the west to play three consecutive guests, Liu Mang had already prepared the new program in Atlanta.

When Liu Mang arrived in Houston, he turned on the TV, and ESPN Sports was already previewing tonight's new show!

"detail", translated into Chinese, means detail.

Liu Mang and ESPN have cooperated more and more, and this time the show was put in prime time, and Liu Mang was very satisfied.

Liu Mang based on his own memory, as well as scouting reports, and his own research on Duncan's performance 30 days before the start of the season...... Ready to get started...... Blow Duncan!
