Liu Mang's words shocked the fans who were watching the live broadcast, as well as the fans on the spot, and all the players who were about to participate in this game.

There is no lack of respect, but there is no hiding the will to fight!

This is not just a speech, it is not just a declaration of war, and even to put it deeply, it is a declaration of the arrival of a new era!

In the past few years, the NBA has always been said to be the post-Jordan era, because Jordan was at the peak of his retirement when he retired, and he was still the league's scoring champion, just spent a double MVP season of winning the regular season MVP and the Finals MVP, and last season when he came back after three years, he still averaged 23 points, 5 boards and 5 assists per game. When the OK combination, Jordan and Pippen are old, and the Bulls may not be defeated, but 99 Spurs, people still think that the Bulls can win it.

The post-Jordan era is not the era after Jordan, but an era that survives in the shadow of Jordan.

And Liu Mang's declaration of war seems to want to tell people that a new era has come!

……

The game is about to start, because of Liu Mang's relationship, the harmonious game after the happy tribute, now both teams have to win!

The Wizards will definitely have to help Jordan fight for face.

On the Hawks' side, there is no doubt that although they are shocked by Liu Mang's approach, they are equally excited!

As Liu Mang said, they are creating their own era, as for Jordan, they respect and admire it very much, but Jordan, who is so old, should retire!

The scene was filled with the feeling that although it could not be said to be the smell of gunpowder, the tension was no less than that of the enemy's meeting.

"Michael Jordan, Ability 84, Offense 90, Defense 75, Three-Point 65, Shot 91, Layup 87, Speed 85, Power 88......"

Liu Mang looked at Jordan's ability assessment, the comprehensive strength has declined a lot compared to last season, mainly because the physical fitness has further declined, the speed has slowed down, the strength has become stronger, and as he gets older, this is normal, the speed has slowed down, the explosive power has become weaker, but the pure strength has become stronger.

Of course, Jordan's explosiveness has become weaker, but it can also be regarded as excellent, plus the static strength of the huge strength after the weight increases, so he has the power value of 88, which is the first guard.

In addition to the rebounding data, this can be seen directly from the body type, even if it is the second three-in-a-row championship period of 33 to 35-year-old Jordan, it can be regarded as lean, after the end of last season, Jordan has gained a lot of weight, and now his weight has increased from 98 kg last season to 105 kg, and his elbow is not inferior to the big forward and some centers!

The physical fitness is better than last season, probably because of more than a year of systematic training, although Jordan's data has declined this year, but the shots have become fewer, the shooting rate has been greatly improved, in the case of 4 fewer shots, the average score per game has only decreased by a little more than two points, and the efficiency has been greatly improved compared to last season, not only that, Jordan's playing time has improved a lot compared to last season, and the average playing time per game has reached 37 minutes.

Averaged 20.6 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game, it's terrible, this old guy! 40 years old!

The starters of both teams are here!

This time, Liu Mang chose to start without much suspense, Jason Terry once again did not believe in evil to play on the bench, this year because Boozer was on the bench, so the Hawks did not lack substitute scorers, Liu Mang and Jason Terry started together is no problem, but Jason Terry is going to play as a substitute, he is very unwilling, and when it is his turn to play as a substitute, the whole world is targeting him.

The Eagles sent out the starters Liu Mang, Prince, Rahim, Muhammad, and Ratliff.

The starting lineup fielded by the Wizards is Larry Hughes, Stackhouse, Jordan, Leitner, Kwame Brown.

Larry Hughes, one of the Wizards' important additions in the summer, the Warriors gave up Larry Hughes's parent team contract extension right in order to develop Arenas and Jason Richardson.

Kwame Brown is starting for the second time this season, averaging 6 points and 6 boards per game before, and his performance is the best in the Wizards' center position, but Jordan prefers to start Brandon Haywood, the No. 20 pick in the same class as Liu Mang and Kwame Brown, because Kwame Brown looks lifeless and far less passionate than Heywood, although Heywood's statistics and defensive efficiency are not as good as Kwame Brown, but Jordan at least looks at a No. 20 pick with 4 points and 4 boards and feels very normal and doesn't look bad.

But today Kwame Brown seems to be very excited and passionate, and he is very excited after he plays!

He was emotionally driven by Liu Mang's words!

"Jordan is retiring!"

Kwame Brown's head is full of this phrase! He felt that he was still young, he could wait, and he could survive until Jordan retired!

Liu Mang looked at Kwame Brown and was a little puzzled when he saw that Kwamei Brown was very excited today, if he knew Kwame Brown's heart, he would definitely complain: There is a more paranoid No. 8 waiting for you in the back......

Liu Mang thought of the previous news and discussions from the media and fans, all saying that he had become a passer at the start, and the substitute was a scorer, and he was going to break people's impressions this time to show them, so that they could understand how "versatile" he was!

The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the two teams started near the center circle, with Kwame Brown and Ratliff jumping the ball in the middle circle!

Kwame Brown is a must on the jump, his physical fitness is too good, and his bounce before gaining weight is invincible in the center position.

Kwame Brown flicked the ball to the back and Hughes received the ball and advanced.

The Eagles' retreat is not fast, the main reason is that the Wizards can't get up fast, and the Hawks don't need to run hard, just play normally.

The Wizards are slowly advancing, and the rhythm of the Wizards this season ranks at the bottom of the league, mainly because of the positional war grinding, trying to win those weak teams, barely maintaining a winning rate of 5 percent, in terms of rhythm, the Wizards are slower than the Heat this year, with only 78 shots per game, and only more shots in the league than the Spurs and Pistons.

Hughes pushed over and handed the ball to Stackhouse, and the Wizards players looked at the Hawks defense with some confusion.

Stackhouse looked at Liu Mang who was defending in front of him, Larry Hughes looked at Prince who was running with him, and Jordan looked at Raheem, who was defending himself, all of them were different from what they expected before the game!

What is that sophomore talking about? Aren't you going to go head-to-head with Jordan?

Stackhouse was in doubt, and that nasty guy started to keep his mouth on the go!

"Yo, who am I? It turned out to be the guy who was abandoned by the Pistons in the playoffs and couldn't even beat a high school student, but I didn't expect you to run to the god of basketball to hug your thighs, but unfortunately, even the god of basketball can't take you. ”

Seeing Liu Mang's mouth pouting like a machine gun, Stackhouse suppressed the anger in his heart and handed the ball to Jordan, who was in the low post with his back to Rahim.

Raheem had tried hard to get in a position with Jordan, but found that he couldn't push the old guy!

This year, Jordan's efficiency has risen sharply, relying on being able to get to a better position in the low position!

Jordan received the ball and topped Raheem and rolled over and jumped back! The ball flew past the fingertips of Raheem, who was actively pounced, and plunged into the basket!

Pretty fly to hey!
