DeMar Johnson?

is this marginalized second-year No. 6 pick, he has been trying to integrate into the mainstream circle of the team, but there has been no way, neither playing time, nor the opportunity to have a close relationship with the team bosses and head coaches, so he can only be a spectator.

Originally, Demar Johnson had no lottery pick because the Hawks barely squeezed into the playoffs last season, and he should still be cultivated as a potential rookie this season, of course, his career is very average, and the best year of the data is the sophomore who was re-emphasized and cultivated, and averaged 8 points per game as the main bench, which is the peak.

And the appearance of Liu Mang grabbed the position of the main substitute, and even the position of the team's third scorer, with Liu Mang's sixth man in the chaos, Demar Johnson has similar functions, and he is so dish, of course he will not be used.

The NBA has always been cruel, and the rise of one person will inevitably steal the opportunity of another.

On the court, Raheem and Jason Terry are flying against Kobe, neither team has a big center, the Lakers' recent winning streak relies on offense, using Kobe's firepower to defeat opponents, the Hawks start without Ratliff, and there is no way to grind defense, relying on two new All-Stars who average 20+ per game and are in good shape.

Seeing that the situation is like that, Kobe Bryant played calmly at the beginning of each game, and the ball distribution was quite reasonable, the Lakers' offense was terrible, and the Hawks relied on Raheem and Jason Terry to barely fight Kobe Bryant, Liu Mang didn't feel too worried, this was a situation that was expected early on.

"Demar, what is habitual visual neglect?" Liu Mang was curious.

Kukocz was also curious, and the sudden question made him want to know the answer.

DeMar Johnson, as a top student who entered the NBA after finishing his fourth year at the University of Cincinnati with a bachelor's degree and being admitted to a master's degree, may play, really average, a little sorry for his physical fitness, but he has a good brain, and he will become a teaching assistant in the future.

Seeing that he finally had a sense of presence next to the famous Kukoczy, Demar Johnson replied positively: "This is the most easily ignored dead corner in basketball games, that is, the empty corner of the bottom corner, which is often valued before the game, but when it comes to the game, there will always be because the opponent holding the ball appears above the bottom line, especially the top arc and two forty-five degree angles, so even if you know that the empty position in the bottom corner is the most accurate, you will still habitually ignore there, and the player who shrinks the defense will often be the corner defender, because the opponent player is too obvious to stand in the high position, Giving defenders the idea that they can't let their opponents go, and baseline defenders ignore it. ”

Liu Mang suddenly realized...... The coaches who probably came up with those tactics were based on the stats and psychology of college basketball, and Popovich's old foxes who can defend three-point points so well should have used this knowledge.

Seeing that Liu Mang didn't understand, Demar Johnson was a little proud: "This is all taught by college basketball!" ”

You're awesome!

Liu Mang heard that Demar Johnson was here to show off his knowledge, of course, he really admired it, and remembered the theoretical knowledge so firmly, but he was still a little unhappy.

This sophomore wants to compete for a place with himself!

Liu Mang doesn't feel that he has robbed Demar Johnson of the position, even if it is a fact, but the NBA is a place where strength is king, you want it, and then grab it back.

Suddenly, an evil hand slapped towards Liu Mang's head, Liu Mang reacted quickly, and a cat waist jumped forward from the bench chair and dodged.

"Ace, what are you doing, tell you to play!" Coach Kruger roared.

Liu Mang looked at it, it has been five minutes since the chat, there are no fouls on the two teams, there is no big center, the game is very harmonious, but the score has been beaten by the No. 8 player who knows that he and O'Neill praise each other every day after retiring!

Playing and fighting, the score has become 17-11! It's only five minutes! The Hawks' scoring is normal, and the Lakers are going to explode!

Coach Kruger decisively called a timeout and replaced Liu Mang, wanting to use cavalry tactics to scare the Lakers.

But when the rookie was called, the rookie didn't rush up to the timeout as usual, but chatted with the team's second-grade parallel No. 6 show, who was not even active in training.

Is this to keep up with the parallel rookies?

Looking at Coach Kruger's furious appearance, Liu Mang resolutely fled behind Raheem and Jason Terry, this open gun is easy to dodge and difficult to defend against dark arrows, and the sneak attack of the big-forehead coach is becoming more and more tricky, and it is almost impossible to prevent it!

Demar Johnson watched Liu Mang being murdered by the coach again, and he was still a little happy in his heart.

However, what Demar Johnson didn't expect was that Liu Mang didn't care about the coach's anger at all, but hooked the shoulders of the team's No. 2 eldest brother Jason Terry and said loudly: "Jason, Sharif, why are you so useless, being beaten up by that guy who ran bald and ran to shave and pretended that he liked bald heads?" ”

Before it was Demar Johnson's turn to shock Liu Mang, he usually sat next to the water dispenser, how could he have the opportunity to talk to the bigwigs, this time he finally came over and chatted a few words.

Liu Mang's words happened to be heard by a certain No. 8 player who went to the technical table to smear some magnesium powder, and all the three-shot all-iron was born with a daughter!

"Stinky boy, who do you say is bald?" Like a cat with its tail stepped on, Kobe Bryant rushed over and glared at Liu Mang.

So angry! I want to hit someone!

What made Kobe even angrier was that Liu Mang said, "Guess? ”

Yes, Liu Mang was deliberately provoking Kobe, so he deliberately said it when he saw Kobe Bryant in the center of the technical table, which is probably the position of the midline extension line.

But what also surprised Liu Mang was that Kobe Bryant snorted and said, "The two guys next to you are not the same." ”

After saying that, Kobe Bryant turned around and left.

Fight?

Just kidding, although he doesn't have a good relationship with O'Neal, but winning the championship together and winning three consecutive championships is the ultimate goal, Kobe doesn't want to cause a big thing at a critical moment to impact the record because of a little thing, he knows that if he and O'Neal are not there, it will be difficult for the rest of the people to enter the playoffs.

Well?

What is the reaction?

Liu Mang looked at Jason Terry and Rahim, who were also bald, and both looked at Liu Mang with unkind eyes.

"Uh...... You are also Mediterranean after shaving your head to cover up the embarrassment? Liu Mang asked in surprise.

"The Mediterranean? ......" Raheem and Jason Terry were stunned for a moment before they realized that the Mediterranean Sea is the common junction of the three major roads of Europe, Asia and Africa, and the middle of the three continents is water......

"Ace, you're looking for death!"

The bosses of the two bad teams have started to abuse rookies again!

"Damn! Jamaica fell ......"

Liu Mang was abused by two bad bosses and doubted his life, how could it be different from the result he thought of!

DeMar Johnson looked at the trio in disbelief, and it was clear that it was just a joke.

Coach Kruger disliked the order to let them hurry up on the field, and he didn't take this matter to heart at all, and let it go.

Why is this happening!

DeMar Johnson thinks it's too unscientific!

He still remembers that last season he felt that he had less playing time because of a conflict with the previous head coach, and he offended the team's strongest Rahim, because he played more time, Raheem's playing time naturally decreased, and then he was beaten out of the ranks of water cooler administrators, until last season's sixth man of the team, Roshawn McLeod, retired, and he was notified by his agent that he might be trained as a sixth man again......

Liu Mang's side can't control what DeMar Johnson is thinking.

He walked up to the court and stood with Kobe, who was even more unkind-eyed, and the two of them were wide-eyed...... Eyes on the big and waiting for Jason Terry to dribble over.
