113 to 91.

The Hawks slaughtered the Bucks by 22 points at home.

Ray Allen, despite breaking the all-time high of 47 points and scoring a career-high 51 points, still couldn't stop the Hawks.

At most, Ray Allen and Raheem blew each other up, and the others couldn't stop the eagles who took off strongly!

This is not a bad team like the Cavaliers, Grizzlies, and Heat, but a real playoff team to beat!

Raheem regained his strength, almost losing his second career 50+, Jason Terry's stable outside output, two rookies performed brilliantly in regular rotation time for the first time, and they were also two rookies at the end of the first round!

The vision of the Hawks draft is eye-catching, although this is only the first time Boozer and Prince have appeared in regular time, and some opponents do not understand why they despise them, but Boozer's grasp of the timing of the block and the awareness of Prince's help defense, this ability can not be shown by the opponent's contempt, this is talent!

Because there is only one game, it is difficult to judge the future of the two rookies, but at least the fans are amazed.

None of this matters, the most important thing is that Liu Mang can actually pass the ball!

There have been fan rumors that Liu Mang was guided by Stockton in the summer, and people thought that someone had read Stockton's polite interview and made it up, but in these years, the cameras of the US imperialists have long been popular, and in 1987 photos could already be uploaded on the Internet, plus various news newspapers or something, the concept of no picture and no truth has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Now I find out that it seems to be true!

On top of that, the Eagles really seem to have come back on their feet!

It's not the kind of guy who just relies on one or two stars to break out to win, but everyone is in good shape, it's not just an explosion to win a game, it's a normal performance!

The happiest thing is not the Hawks themselves or the Hawks fans, because it is only 6-18 now, with a 25 percent win rate, and it is still too early to enter the playoffs.

The Eagles have almost wasted November and December, the two easiest game months with the schedule, and the next January is relatively fine, with only 15 games, but the most lively February and March in China, the Eagles have a total of 30 games, 13 in February, and 17 in March!

The Hawks, like the Rockets, had the toughest schedule in February and March, and it's easy to see why, the league spent the most time catering to Chinese fans.

Seeing that the Eagles seemed to be finally getting better, David Stern cried tears of joy in his office!

Originally, because the Chinese double-star plan was over, because Yao Ming's rookie season could not be said to be bad, but it was not good, and now he has averaged 12 points and 8 boards per game, which is decent, and if Liu Mang's side has been bleak, it will be a huge blow to the goal of rapid development of the Chinese market!

The TV broadcasters also almost burst into tears, and a male singer with both virtue and art sang well: I waited for a long time and finally waited for today......

Barkley is also happy to see the rising ratings, and who is going to have trouble with money, the higher the ratings of the commentary game, the higher the prize money.

While the Hawks still look like they're going to have a tough time making the playoffs right now, at least they're getting better! If it gets better, it means the ratings, and that's all money!

Domestic fans still set off a scolding war when something happened, but the commentators of the imperial court station can finally start to brag about how good the Eagles are, they were swollen by being slapped in the face at the beginning of the season, and of course there are also commentators who have been given nicknames: Yang Huahua, every time he explains the Eagles game, the Eagles are abused.

However, some people are happy and some are sad, and the Hornets players who have arrived in Atlanta a day earlier are about to cry.

Don't mind!

Why is it their turn, the Eagles counterattack?

At this time, neither the Spurs nor the Hawks traded had yet to report on the opposing team's physical examination, and they couldn't play for the past two days, and the Spurs didn't have a game until the 26th, so I don't know how Glenn Robinson would play after he went to the Spurs.

Now there is no Glenn Robinson Bucks, no Glenn Robinson Hawks, from the current performance of these two teams, people feel that the Spurs are trapped!

The Hornets are even sadder, why are the Spurs thinking about helping the Hawks take over! Even if you take the plate, will you wait a few more days? How did they close the deal before they beat the Hawks? Let's wait until they sweep the Eagles away!

……

……

After the game against the Bucks, the Hawks had a long, long evening interview.

However, this interview is quite harmonious, Liu Mang, who was arrogant before, is very low-key this time, no longer put out nonsense, to avoid setting any flags, after the task of counterattacking the road, Liu Mang feels that it is better to keep a low profile and play high-profile.

When Liu Mang came home at night, it was almost a little bit, and he found that the light in his suite was still on!

When I opened the door, Dinah, Alexia, and Levia all looked like they were celebrating the New Year, and there was food on the coffee table in the living room.

"Uncle......" Dina saw Liu Mang coming back, and rushed over excitedly and jumped up.

As soon as Liu Mang hugged the little Lori, he took a bite and slapped it on his face.

"Dinah knows that we will definitely win, Uncle is so good, Uncle Sharif is so good, Uncle Jason is so good, that uncle who looks like a monkey is so good, our Eagles are just amazing......"

Liu Mang looked at Dina who was counting the players with his fingers in his arms, and felt that it was great to win.

In the past two months, the atmosphere at home has been so depressing, mainly because Liu Mang is unhappy with the loss, the atmosphere is low, and Dinah is the standard team honey cultivated since childhood on the American side, Dinah is doubly depressed, and she is very depressed every day, Liu Mang feels that Dinah has become thinner.

Finally, I saw the lively little Lori again.

Liu Mang made up his mind to win! Be sure to win! If there is another guy who will affect the team's performance, it will be killed directly!

Recently, Alexia and Dinah have been reluctant to go to Phillips Arena to watch the game, and they have been losing, which is not interesting at all.

"Alright Dinah! It's so late to sleep yet! I have a class tomorrow! Liu Mang patted Dinah's head, "By the way, senior sister, it's so late today, and you haven't gone home yet?" ”

Alexia was about to speak, but Dinah spoke first: "Teacher Aida won't go back tonight, so I'll stay here......"

Liu Mang's eyes just lit up, and the second half of Dinah's words came out: "Teacher Aida sleeps in Dinah's room tonight, Dina sleeps in Dinah's room, and Uncle sleeps on the sofa!" ”

Liu Mang almost carried it in one breath, this little Lori arrangement is really good! Why don't your teachers sleep in the master's room and the master sleep on the sofa?

"Today, I saw Ace that you finally won, we went to the supermarket to buy some food and had a party, I wanted to wait for you to come back, but I didn't expect you to interview so much after you won, and then come back." Alexia explained, "Then the teacher will sleep in Dinah's room tonight, and I'll wake her up tomorrow morning." ”

"Teacher Aida...... Let Dinah sleep lazily tomorrow, the teacher will help Dinah ask for leave, and say that Dinah is sick, okay! Little Lori began to be coquettish again.

This trick is effective for Liu Mang, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on women, Alexia patted Dinah's head: "I also learned to pretend to be sick!" No way! Little children can't lie! ”

"The teacher is stingy! Uncle finally won, can't he let Dinah sleep longer! ”

Alexia's childlike heart also rose, and she grimaced at Dinah, but she didn't agree.

Looking at the atmosphere at home because of winning a game, the women and children in the family are so happy, Liu Mang feels that it is really good to be a fan of James and Duncan, and he has led the team to the playoffs for more than ten years, and the worst is the top 16 in the league, winning at least forty or fifty games every year, not to mention, fans of such players are really happy.

Liu Mang had endured it for so long without setting up a flag during the previous interview, but now when he returned home, he saw that his family was so happy, Dinah was so lively, and Alexia was so happy, although Levia didn't say much, she could obviously see that she was happy.

Hearing Dinah's sentence "Uncle finally won", Liu Mang couldn't help but say: "Don't worry, Dinah, your uncle and I will win a lot of games in the future, and we will enter the playoffs every year, and I won't let you see me lose so badly!" ”

Immediately, Liu Mang understood what it meant to pretend to be cool for a while.

"Ding...... In response to the host's grand wishes, the system releases the career task: The Road of Kings. ”

"The Road of Kings: The host must enter the playoffs every season of his career in the NBA, and when he completes the goal in each season, he will be rewarded with superstar points after being calculated by the system, and the penalty for failure will be 10,000 superstar points for every 1 win away from the playoff seat."

Depend on! Liu Mang was stunned! One night, two hours of interviews, I couldn't help but not set up a flag, and I didn't hold back when I was slack!

The task ...... It's not hard to say, and it's not too much to punish, but it's still so desperate! Liu Mang really wants to slap his broken mouth!

……

……

The next morning, when Liu Mang woke up, it was already past nine o'clock, and there was no one at home.

Levia went shopping for Christmas Eve, Dinah and Alexia went to school, today is the last day of class, and tomorrow will start a nine-day double egg holiday.

Liu Mang got up and folded the quilt on the sofa, otherwise Dinah would come back at night and say that such a big uncle didn't even fold the quilt.

After washing up, Liu Mang ate some bread and lettuce, and then rode to the stadium.

Because it was back-to-back, there was no training except for the team meeting at 2 p.m., but today was the day when two new teammates came to report.

It doesn't matter if the new teammates are new or not, what matters is that one of the teammates is Kevin Wesley, a future legend who will retire his jersey with the Hawks 100 percent in the future.

Although the Hawks have a long team history, except for one championship in the 57-58 season, there are actually very few honors in team history, and there are not many stars in the team's history who have won individual awards in the NBA.

Excluding Ratliffe, who is now the best defensive player and best defensive team, and Raheem, who is the best team, before the three Eagles played, there were only four players in the Hawks' history who were selected to the best team: Bob Petit, the ancient superstar who led the team to the only championship in team history, Lou Hudson, the team leader in the 60s, Dominic Wilkins, the best of human movies, and the last one is Kevin Wesley.

Moreover, Kevin Wesley is also the Hawks' all-time rebounding leader and fifth on the scoring list.

Kevin Wesley just signed a two-year, $4.6 million contract with the Spurs, and originally planned to play these two years with the Spurs, and wait until he reached the record of the longest career of 21 seasons after Robert Parish, the Celtics' legend and nicknamed Chief, before returning to the Hawks to play a one-year retirement, just tying the Chiefs' record.

The Hawks management also thinks so, sending Kevin Wesley to the Heat to exchange for Steve Smith is also a helpless game, the Hawks want to rebuild, and with Kevin Wesley as an insider, it is not easy to mess up.

But now that the Spurs are using Kevin Wesley as a bargaining chip to balance the salary, the Hawks are naturally happy to bring the veteran back.

Not to mention that the veteran was 39 years old last season and could still average 6 points and 6 rebounds per game, and he is also in excellent physical condition this year, but he doesn't match the Spurs, he is too thin to be used against the Spurs' main opponent O'Neal.

Let's just say that Kevin Wesley's rich playoff experience is the most lacking thing for the Hawks.

Liu Mang still likes to ride a bicycle, came to the Phillips Arena training ground, found that there were already a bunch of reporters, looked at his mobile phone, it was half past ten, this veteran came really early, it is estimated that in order to participate in tonight's game, come early for a physical examination.

After the medical examination and the permission of the team doctor, you can represent the team in the competition.

Seeing Liu Mang coming, reporters immediately surrounded him.

Originally, Kevin Wesley would not have attracted so many reporters when he came back, at most the local media would interview him, and other media would have reprinted it.

The main thing is to wait for Liu Mang to come.

Liu Mang's title of Stadium Mouse has long been known in the NBA, and he will definitely come this morning, and Liu Mang is full of respect for the veterans, the team's future celebrities will return, and it is also possible to rely on the length of his career to be inducted into the Hall of Fame The team old-timers, the media have speculated that Liu Mang will come, no, it really came.

Watching a bunch of reporters come up, Liu Mang is used to it.

"Ace, your all-time rebounding champion is back with Kevin Wesley, is there anything you want to say?" The reporter's questions were not bad and friendly.

Liu Mang replied: "Of course, it's great that Kevin is back, we really need a teammate with such a lot of experience, he will use his experience to correct the mistakes we may make, so that we can avoid a lot of mistakes, we urgently need a veteran with such experience, of course, we will also try to learn from him, I can't wait to partner with him." ”

Coach Kruger and veteran Kevin Wesley on the side were very satisfied with Liu Mang's statement, especially Coach Kruger, who saw that Liu Mang was now more skillful in speaking after seeing that Liu Mang had gone through this dark period.

"Kevin Wesley's career could break 20 seasons, which is a great achievement, Ace, have you ever thought you'd be playing that long?" The reporter's questions are still very friendly.

But this time......

"No, I'm not interested, I won't fight when I'm tired." Liu Mang decisively refused to express his envy, yes, this group of guys always wants the master to set up a flag!

Although I have been playing for more than 20 years, I am really enviable......
