1342. Granger's Belief, Hawks' Team Culture (5000 Word Chapter)

Played 15 minutes, got 9 points and 4 assists, Rondo looked at his statistics, and scored a double-double with one point.

It was because of the free throws of 4 free throws in the first half that the opponent began to foul him tactically in the middle of the third quarter, and after the 2 free throws in the third quarter became 1 of 6, he was replaced and never played.

With 4-of-6 shooting from the field and 1-of-6 from the free-throw line, O'Neal wasn't so bad.

Garbage time didn't let him play either, but Jason Terry took Korver, Battier, Granger, and David Lee on the court.

"Practice your free throws more, and when the free throws are accurate, you will have more playing time." Granger patted Rondo on the shoulder and said.

"yes, I know." Rondo was touched, but his expression was still cool.

"yes, if you make a good free throw, you can learn from me to make fouls, how awesome." Liu Mang said beside him.

"......" Rondo glanced at Liu Mang and swore in his heart: Don't be a player like that even if you die! It's too embarrassing to look for fouls!

Liu Mang looked at Rondo's free throw performance that almost broke the record for the worst free throw shooting percentage in history, and thought of the list show more than ten years later, and estimated that except for that guy, no one could break Rondo's free throw shooting rate in his rookie year......

After experiencing the children's clothing storm and being secretly photographed by the staff and spread on the Internet, Rondo already has a sense of lightness about many things......

In fact, Rondo is not good at free throws in college, but at least he is about the same as James, with a shooting rate of more than 60 percent, at least a little better than O'Neal, Duncan, and Kwame Brown.

But in the NBA, the confrontation became stronger, Rondo was not affected much in terms of layups, and the steps under the basket were one by one, the kind that James envied, but the confrontation he experienced when he was fouled made him suffer a huge impact on the free throws, and the longer the confrontation lasted, the more iron.

There is also the difference between the Hawks and the Celtics' cultivation of Rondo, the Celtics mainly cultivate Rondo's vision and passing, while the Hawks make more use of Rondo's existing characteristics, speed, defense, rebounding, breaking, etc., especially Rondo's defense is key to defending the opponent's speed players when Liu Mang is not there.

In addition, in the case of the Cavaliers, there are Damon Jones and Peja, two three-point masters in the run, and Liu Mang and Rondo's speed come in handy.

Rondo has 9 points and 4 assists, in addition to performing well on the defensive end, there are also a lot of scenes on the offensive end, and he knows how to use Rondo's characteristics, Liu Mang is just like willing to give the ball to Iguodala and Josh Smith, willing to send the ball out, either like in the first half in addition to Maddie or Jason Terry has a third point.

Granger, who had high hopes, made good contributions on the defensive end, capped James twice, and also made a quick steal, scoring 5 points, 2 rebounds, 1 steal and 2 blocks.

Judging from the data, Granger, a sophomore, did not perform as well as rookie Rondo.

This can't be helped, Granger won the Most Improved Award in the fourth grade, and only then did he really grow up, from the perspective of a superstar, Granger's progress is very slow, after all, it is the Pacers who give football rights and enough playing time.

The Eagles trained Granger from defense and three-point shooting, that is, to strengthen Granger's strengths.

Obviously, the Eagles pay more attention to Rondo than to Granger, and the Eagles have no shortage of forwards and appreciate Granger, so they are also cultivating, but more to use as a trade chip.

Of course, Granger's contribution is obvious to all, such as defending James very well under the basket today.

The Pacers have done their best to train Granger, but in the original time and space, the second-year Granger played an average of 34 minutes per game and scored 13 points, and after the fourth-year improved, he averaged 36 minutes per game and scored 25 points.

Mainly due to Granger's reluctance to shoot casually when he is not sure, he is the kind of leader who has the personality of a leader, and Jason Terry is the strongest on the bench, but young players like to follow Granger.

And Granger personally, for what he has to learn in the Eagles, is very similar to Iguodala and Josh Smith, playing next to the superstars, polishing their skills, and learning from the superstars how to deal with difficulties in the game.

Iguodala, who went to the Rockets, is now a first-line swingman and knows what it takes to make his team a strong team; Josh Smith's side, the ability to eat cakes honed in the Hawks, and focus on the offense under the basket, was not cultivated towards the all-round blindness, and next to Nash, although there was an extra fat man, the performance was still excellent, averaging 21.6 points and 8.3 rebounds per game, becoming the Suns' scoring champion and offensive rebounding champion.

After learning this, Granger has a clear positioning for himself, he will do whatever the team needs him, work hard to learn and absorb, and learn to become a leader in the new team like Iguodala!

With both Iguodala and Josh Smith on a great future and Granger confident that the Hawks management will not treat him badly, this aspect of the Hawks' team culture has been established and has been widely accepted by NBA players, media, and fans, as can be seen from the beginning of sending Josh Smith, Iguodala, and Rasheed Wallace to the same team.

With such a great team, Granger is even more determined about his goals.

Granger is a firm believer.

……

……

The Cavaliers' strongest player is guarded!

James couldn't break the Hawks' defense!

With James's three points strengthened in advance, as well as his more and more proficient four-step layups under the basket, with his incomparable estimation to be on par with Wade and Iverson, and better than Liu Mang, Kobe, and Maddy, this season is invincible to other teams except for facing the Spurs, Lakers, and Rockets, which are either strong forward defense or strong team defense.

Seeing that the Hawks lost Iguodala and Josh Smith, people thought that the Hawks might be able to win against the Cavaliers, but most likely they would not be able to keep James as they did before.

But I didn't expect the Hawks to rely on defensive tactics to limit James to play the worst performance of the season, shooting 6 of 22, less than 30 percent of the shot!

Liu Mang said in an interview after the game: "I like LeBron very much, so I thought of about a hundred ways to defend him......"

A hundred ways to prevent James are exaggerated by the media and fans, but as long as there are a few that are effective, it is enough for James.

This is based on the fact that the Hawks have Maddy, Prince, Battier, Granger, Marion and even Korver, and the 100 defenses against James are not easy for other teams to learn!

The only reliable ones are the Spurs and the Lakers, the Lakers have Kobe, Odom, Barnes, and the Spurs have Artest and team defense.

But they were already very restrained by the Cavaliers, and they didn't need to learn this at all.

In addition to the restriction on James' side, people were also surprised by the performance of the Cavaliers' two largest pitchers.

Peja and Damon Jones combined for just three three-pointers, Damon Jones one, and Peja two.

On the Hawks' side, Liu Mang single-handedly scored three three-pointers!

is facing the situation of blocked three-point shots in the open position, Liu Mang still has a three-point shooting rate of 3 of 8 shots, and the two brothers of the Cavaliers add up to 3 of 15 shots!

Before Liu Mang played against the Cavaliers, people thought that Peja was a three-point shooter who would not lose to Liu Mang, and with James, Peja's three-point ability was even better than in the Kings, and was even regarded as better than Ray Allen.

But now I find that Ray Allen is a little better, Ray Allen can at least break through in the face of Liu Mang, and there is a threat of breakthrough, and he also shoots 3 of 9 three-point efficiency, and Peja is 2 of 12!

And whether it's Ray Allen or Peja, it feels too bad compared to Liu Mang!

There is a feeling that Peja and Ray Allen are competing for third, Liu Mang is the only gear, and the second is vacant!

Many teams have seen Liu Mang's better three-point performance this season, and they are about to average 4 three-pointers per game again, and they have begun to focus on some players with outstanding three-point points in college.

There are also more ideas for the excellent pitchers of some teams.

Now the rules are becoming more and more conducive to the scoring of outside players, and the value of pitchers has risen with Liu Mang's performance......

"Jeff, go buy Apple stock...... That's right, it's Jobs's apple, you can buy as much as you want...... I got the news from my college classmates who work at Apple that Steve Jobs is going to give people an epoch-making product, and when the stock price is going to skyrocket next year, you can try to buy a little bit of ......."

Asked Schwartz to get the authorization to use the money in his account to buy Apple shares, Liu Mang hung up the phone.

Schwartz has no doubt that he is there, Liu Mang said that he is going to buy the bottom in the last period of December, and there is only less than half a month left, so he has to do it quickly.

In college, when you are studying, you are learning knowledge and understanding the wider world, and after graduation, you are more connected.

Liu Mang...... I really don't have any college connections, and those who have contact with college classmates are only the child's mother, Alexia and Liu Mang are not in the same session, Alexia is in contact with her classmates, and occasionally goes out for a coffee, and classmates with children can also discuss parenting together, Liu Mang has no contact with college classmates, but he graduated from Georgia Tech in economics, so no one will think there is a problem.

Liu Mang occasionally pays attention to the fact that from 2004 to the present, Apple's iPod at the beginning of the century brought a storm because Sony and other brands have also launched new MP3 equipment and gradually reduced the heat, Apple fell into a long period of silence, no special attention to the launch of new products, 2006 has come to an end, this year's Apple stock trading volume is less than 200 million US dollars.

But Liu Mang knows that in January 2007, Apple will launch an epoch-making product, from the official launch of the iPhone generation in June 2007 to the iPhone 4S in 2011, which is Apple's era in the past few years, and it will continue for a long time after that.

Liu Mang calculated his account, except for the rookie season, there was no money, and in order to sign a bigger endorsement contract, he didn't accept the endorsement in the rookie year, since the second grade, Liu Mang's income has exceeded 20 million US dollars, and last season's three consecutive championships, Liu Mang's after-tax income reached 49 million US dollars, in addition to the used ones, there are also those used to buy a house, and there are more than 110 million US dollars, and Schwartz was authorized to have a budget of 100 million US dollars, and the remaining part may be used in ordinary times.

It is impossible to sell the school district buildings in the imperial capital now, just wait until the purchase restriction to sell them, those two buildings ...... Liu Mang attaches more importance to Apple's stock than the 100 million US dollar.

"Uncle, what are you writing? One hundred million! Oh my God, you're crazy! Little Lori got into Liu Mang's arms, looked at the numbers written by Liu Mang, and exclaimed.

"100 million? Ace, what stocks are you going to buy, and what kind of money do you want to make? Levia was also shocked.

"What do you women know, now that technology is becoming more and more developed, it will be the era of artificial intelligence in the future, Apple is the pioneer, Dinah, next year you will be able to use a completely different mobile phone." Liu Mang put the little Lori on his thigh, rubbed the little Lori's face and said.

"I've heard about this, Jobs has been raising money, but the media and some of my friends say that Jobs is a liar, Ace, you have to be careful." Levia reminded.

"Trust my eyes! I will definitely earn it this time! "Liu Mang is very difficult.

Levia thought about it, Liu Mang has always been very good in this regard, but he usually doesn't like to do this, and focuses on basketball every day.

Levia and Liu Mang's economy is independent, unlike Alexia because she has a child, so she is swiping Liu Mang's card, Levia returned to the room and thought for a while, called the head of her father's Savicia family, and took out the money from some of the properties she had just sold, ready to buy a little......

Just like Liu Mang has been waiting for the bottom price, Levia studied Apple's stock price and knew that if Apple made a big move, it would basically be the bottom price......

……

After playing the Cavaliers, the Hawks had a day off and welcomed the Raptors.

The Raptors are in fourth place in the East this season, and the first system in the region has allowed them to enter the top four in the East for the first time in team history, and the Nets are still struggling on the edge of the playoffs.

James' Cavaliers lost one game, and the Bulls unfortunately lost one, but the Cavaliers are still No. 1 in the East and have a good chance of continuing to win the Eastern Conference regular season championship.

So James and Milicic's "Black Player Future" and "White Center Hope" matchup is getting a lot of attention.

However, the game between the Hawks and Milicic is also attracting attention, Milicic, who can pass the ball in both offense and defense, and the matchup between Kwame Brown, the No. 1 single defense master in the Mesozoic Era, and Liu Mang can continue to crush the 03 generation......

It's close to the Christmas game, and on December 16, the Hawks ushered in their second meeting with the Raptors at home.

After a tactical meeting in the morning and a 40-minute rehearsal of Milicic's defensive strategy, Liu Mang took a break at noon and went home to take the two cubs, bodyguards, servants and others to the stadium.

When Liu Mang was about to go back to the training ground to rest and warm up, Xiao Lori pulled Liu Mang's clothes and said with a cute expression: "Uncle, Dina is going to celebrate her birthday......

On the 19th, unfortunately, Liu Mang was going to Phoenix to play away and couldn't bring a gift to Lori.

"I know, I'll be back with a gift!" Since he forgot to make little Lori cry once in the second grade, Liu Mang will never forget about it.

It's all written on the calendar, everyone in the family has a birthday, what gifts to give, after going home to meet his parents, Liu Mang will buy some to pack up and send back every year.

"Why don't you take us to the West Coast! It's time for a Christmas fight in Los Angeles! Little Lori's eyes sparkled.

“…… Dinah, I want to skip class again! ”

"Uncle......

"Ask Levia to go, I'm afraid I'll be beaten ......"

"Hmph...... Stingy, what's wrong with being beaten......"

"Is that a hit?"

After arguing with little Lori, Liu Mang still took Little Lori to find Levia and explained that he wanted to take Dinah to Phoenix City for her birthday, and Levia was speechless.

"Ace, you spoil Dinah too much, you can accommodate everything about her, what should you do when you grow up and enter society?" Levia told Liu Mang that Americans value self-reliance very much.

"We celebrated Becas and Avril Avril for their birthdays in October, and I was at home, and it was pitiful for Dina to be absent for her birthday...... Liu Mang said weakly.

"Okay, okay, it's the last time, you're an adult when you're 12 years old, you know?" Levia couldn't help but pat Lori's head.

"Knowing Mom, Uncle is amazing." Little Lori jumped up excitedly towards Liu Mang.

Liu Mang hurriedly hugged it, this action ...... It's all a conditioned reflex!

……

brought Alexia and the two cub maid bodyguards to the box, Levia's mother and daughter went to the back of the technical desk by themselves, and Liu Mang's parents went back, and they didn't like to sit in the front row.

Liu Mang returned to the locker room to warm up.

I've been waiting for a long time!

The Eagles have been preparing for this day for a long time.

With a big center like Milicic, a great mid-range singles player like Joe Johnson, and a great super 3-and-D player like Richard Jefferson, the Raptors may end up being the biggest opponent for the Eastern Hawks, after all, a big center like Milicic is fantastic.

Liu Mang has not been alone in dealing with Milicic's high position, he has been paying attention to the advice given by fans on the Internet, has been discussing with the coaching staff, and is thinking about what he can think of, and there is a thing that Liu Mang envisioned before, if it works, then everything will be easy to do.

The feature of "rejecting horses" has to be obtained!

At the beginning of the season it looked like there were four games to go, and by the second game, there were only two games left after the game!

The game is played one less game, and unlike other people's own abilities, which are judged by the system to be natural skills, Liu Mang's natural skills need to be upgraded.

The kind of fighting left and right is a growth skill, and Liu Mang needs to train it himself, and the progress is slow, but there will be no restrictions.

And the talent skill of "Lianzhu" needs to be upgraded through the task, and if you fail one, you will have one less feature, which is very restrictive!

But the effect is also very strong, and it must be taken! At least we have to find more details in this game!

Set a small goal first, such as 1 second to remember: Book Keju mobile version reading website:
