354. I'm waiting for you in Jingdezhen...... First win in the playoffs!

Ordinary players, the first choice after rushing inside, dodging the defense to score, encountering the bag, passing to teammates.

Carter plays, as long as he successfully rushes in, he thinks about dunking, or he will be capped, or he will be fouled, and he can dunk an average of once a game in his peak.

Capela plays, and no one in front of him directly dunks it.

And Liu Mang, after this breakthrough, rushed directly to the basket, and rushed towards Jerome Williams!

This action, the fans at the scene exclaimed, is it to take revenge?

Although Liu Mang's physical fitness is not outstanding, he is famous for not deducting it, and if you want to deduct it, you will have to deduct it!

How could Jerome the mad dog make Liu Mang happy? It's ready, and when Liu Mang rushes up, he will slap the other party to the ground!

Foul?

What the hell is that! He averaged a few fouls per game when he was with the Pistons, and he was made six free throws more than a dozen times every season! Especially when I played in the playoffs with Grant Hill back then, I was ejected in 4 out of 5 games in a series! All of them set a record for the highest percentage of ejections in the playoffs!

Liu Mang rushed to the free throw line, picked up the ball, bent his knees deeply, and stepped up!

Jerome Williams roared and pounced on Liu Mang.

At this time, Liu Mang grabbed the ball and landed gently, bent his knees very fiercely, and when he stepped out, he was fluttering, slow motion, sideways to avoid Jerome Williams, and then hit Jerome Williams, and threw the ball to the basket before hitting it!

"Anderwan!" Draymond Green Roar!

At the moment when Liu Mang met Jerome Williams, the referee's whistle blew! Shooting foul!

The ball goes into the basket!

"Leak! No! Damn bastards! This despicable rookie, he, he, he, he...... Are you blind? He's deliberately making a foul! Jerome Williams snarled at the referee.

Unlike Antonio Davis, who is an All-Star and roars but is still measured, the mad dog Jerome can't do anything when he gets excited, and he doesn't say anything about yelling at the referee, and swearing.

You're not stupid! You yourself said that the other party cheated and fouled, who is to blame for being deceived yourself? The referee ignored him, gave a T directly, signaled to the technical table, and scored a free throw with a technical foul and a shot.

Seeing that Jerome Williams was still arguing with the referee and was about to hit someone, Coach Lenny Wilkens quickly called a timeout.

It's a double-edged sword!

Yes, it can improve the team's blood.

But why isn't there a championship team to do it?

It's because it's too much!

This is no longer the era of the Bad Boys of the late '80s, with the creation of fouls and the increased power of referees to commit technical fouls, and the bad-guy type of player like Jerome Williams, who may have been sought after by defensive powerhouses a decade ago, no longer has the championship team wanting.

If it is to play the Pistons, both teams are a group of dirty ratios, Jerome Williams and Clifford Robinson are estimated to play with the referees only blowing ordinary fouls, but the Hawks have been injected into his style by Liu Mang, who can be obscene and shameless, but not without principles.

In this way, the referee's blowing penalty will obviously be biased, Jerome Williams has obviously angered the referee, looking at Jerome Williams seems to be angry to hit the referee, Coach Wilkens immediately replaced him, although this player doesn't care about six fouls or not six fouls, but if he hits the referee, it will be fun, not only a technical foul or a problem of being sent off, it is estimated that this playoff game will not want to play.

If you want to say that the free throws are the most stable, the Hawks will be Liu Mang and Jason Terry, if there is only one person present, the free throws of the two of them will be on the court, and the free throws will be usually taken by both of them, this time Coach Kruger let

"I'm waiting for you in Jingdezhen, I can recognize you at a glance......" Liu Mang hummed a few translated tunes in English and walked to the sidelines to wait for Jason Terry to make a technical foul and free throw.

Playing black hands with the master? Get you done in minutes!

"Ace, what are you singing, where is Jingdezhen?" Raheem asked curiously.

"Jingdezhen! It's a sacred place in our basketball world, and I'm singing the praises of my predecessors in this style of play. Liu Mang smiled evilly.

"Oh? Is that senior? It's the first time I've seen Ace like you...... Clever play. Rahim thought for a moment and choked out an adjective.

Cut, so against your heart! Praise your little brother for dying! Liu Mang continued to talk nonsense: "That's a very great person, his name is Brother Deng, the King of Jingdezhen, don't you understand?" If you don't understand, you'll be right! That's called mystery! ”

In the midst of Liu Mang's blind handips, Jason Terry made a technical foul and hit a free throw, and the referee blew the whistle for the Raptors to pause.

23-9, the Hawks lead by 14 points at home!

There is 1 minute and 7 seconds left in the first quarter, and Liu Mang has one more free throw! That is, it is possible to lead by 15 points!

Coach Wilkens took the tactical board and pondered.

No matter what tactics, it's useless!

The tactics that the Raptors can play now in this lineup are tantamount to looking for death against the Hawks, and they can't even stop the defensive battle!

The main reason is that the defensive battle that the Raptors can play is iron-blooded combat, and the opponent has a shameless king of fouls, who actually got the second most stinky rookie in the regular season free throws as a substitute, although everyone scolds shameless, even Hawks fans recognize the shameless style of play, although it is really shameless, but it is too novel and effective! Specialized in their physical defense.

In fact, if Coach Wilkens encounters the Pistons led by Coach Carlisle, who is talented but not very experienced and does not match the overall temperament of the Pistons, although the difference in strength is large, the Raptors still have a chance to go down.

But playing the Eagles, not only is there a big gap in strength, but also a complete style of play!

It's not anywhere else to finish the gram, just Liu Mang's point to finish their ferocious inside defense!

To put it bluntly, the Raptors are lacking in strength, and there is no other way than to rely on hard work.

But what else can be done?

Coach Wilkens has no other way but to keep fighting! Continue to strengthen the defense and strengthen the contraction!

……

What do you want to say about this disciple? He has a tough personality and a ...... style of play Let's not talk about it.

Coach Krueger still underestimated the strength of his side, and when he thought about it, he really underestimated himself.

If the Raptors face the Pistons and Celtics, who also have only more than 40 wins, or about 50 wins, they can have a chance to struggle.

But the Eagles are more than 60 wins! As long as they play carefully, the Raptors may be able to take the initiative for a while because of special tactics.

But as the Eagles got used to it, especially because of the opponent's big action fouls, the Hawks players became bloody, and the confrontation was also strengthened, and the opponent had no chance to struggle!

Coach Kruger made up his mind, and after urging the players not to take the lead lightly, he waved his hand, closed the door, and released the hooligans!

……

After the timeout, the Raptors replaced a black and thick muscular man, Eric Montrose, a 29-year-old '94 No. 9 pick in the prime of life, a physical power center with average ball intelligence but rough defense.

The Raptors can't manage so much, and they will carry out the iron and blood to the end! This is their only chance to turn things around!

On the Hawks' side, the four main players plus Newbell continue to play, and the playing time in the playoffs at the beginning of this year will definitely be mostly improved.

Liu Mang came up to increase the punishment and regrettably did not enter.

The Raptors attacked, Morris Peterson held the ball high, the Hawks continued to shrink, shrinking to death, this time Morris Peterson finally got it right, forced Raheem to the right side of the free throw line and threw it into the basket, and the Raptors finally scored a double-double in a single quarter!

It's time for the Eagles to attack again, and the Eagles pull away! Even Muhammad and Rahim, who have no shooting ability, pulled out the three-second zone to make room for Liu Mang.

Liu Mang was playing with anger today, looking at the opponents in their 60s and early 70s, only Antonio Davis was an opponent with a 78 ability value, and he was afraid of eggs!

Liu Mang dribbled the ball to the inside line and continued to attack, and the opponent pounced on it and hit it under the opponent's arm, or had the opportunity to shake it off and then take the initiative to rub it up, and it could also avoid being hit and affecting the accuracy of the free throw.

Do everything you can to make fouls!

In the last tens of seconds, Liu Mang made two more fouls.

After the first quarter, after only scoring 7 points in the first half of the quarter, the Hawks slashed 20 points in the second half of the quarter, leading the Raptors by 14 points 27-13 in a single quarter!

After the start of the second half, Liu Mang's breakthrough has made the opponent dare not stick so tightly, but he can't help but defend, at this time Liu Mang began to cooperate with Jason Terry and Rahim, and was passed to Rahim or Jason Terry by the bag, and the two had the opportunity to shoot or cut into the basket to attack the basket, or pass to the defender that the Raptors missed after Liu Mang was trapped.

Although because the Raptors are all in good physical fitness, after all, they are a flying team, and they can run fast and jump, which leads to a slow rhythm and a slow pace of opening up the point difference, but it has been gradually widening.

At halftime, 49-27, the Hawks led by 22 points at halftime!

In the face of the crushing of strength, the Raptors still had a trace of expectation at the beginning, when the Nuggets played the black eight supersonics, the playing style was similar to them, and the gap in record was even greater, the supersonic 63 wins, the Nuggets only 42 wins, the Knicks black eight Heat is also still vivid, after the opening game played 7-4, the Raptors' fighting spirit reached the highest point.

But the strength gap is the strength gap, and when the fighting spirit is at its highest, it encounters a head-on blow, and it collapses very quickly and falls to the bottom!

In the third quarter, the Raptors' defensive enthusiasm dropped significantly, and Liu Mang took this opportunity to go up and shoot on the outside.

In the third quarter, Liu Mang shot 4 of 9 from the outside, and threw 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, Rahim hit the inside single in the third quarter, Liu Mang and Jason Terry opened up space, and the main profit was Liu Mang, his active running won him 5 catch-and-shoot opportunities, and he shot 4 times in singles, with a total of 9 shots and 4 shots, plus two successful breakthroughs, and scored 15 points in a single quarter!

By the end of the third quarter, the Hawks had a 77-45 lead of more than 30 points!

Liu Mang scored 37 points in the third quarter, and more than half of the Eagles' points were scored by him! opened up the situation and completely opened up the point difference, Liu Mang became the key to the Eagles' playoff debut!

The main thing is that 13 of the 17 free throws...... Most of them were won in the first half......

In the cheers of the fans at the scene, the main players of the Hawks put on their training uniforms after the third quarter, and the Hawks changed to a substitute lineup, although the Raptors players worked hard to brush up on the points in garbage time, and scored 29 points in a single quarter, more than the entire half of the first half, but it was too late!

The Hawks finally bloodied the Raptors 94-74 and won the first victory of the series!

This is also Liu Mang's first career playoff victory!
