1329. There will always be a way to progress (part 3 of 5)
The awkward shot of the zombie jump shot, but the characteristics of the shot when jumping up and falling, combined with the bonus that the king of dry pulls can grab the ball and jump with all his strength while dribbling, and the bonus that the marksman ignores rhythm interference...... It's really a different taste in my heart......
The zombie jump shot is very easy to defend, Westbrook almost hit less than 40 percent when he won the scoring title, the perennial three-point shooting rate was less than 30 percent, and the mid-range shooting ability was good but only 356 percent of the shooting rate, because his shooting action was very good to defend.
In addition, this kind of jump shot is a dry pull shooting method that purely gambles on the feeling and personal ability, and this kind of shooting action should not be used more.
But it's still good to scare your opponent with a wit once in a while.
Liu Mang is already known for his changeable playing style, and he can really scare his opponent with a few blind moves with an action bag.
Iguodala, who knows Liu Mang's changeable style of play best, was the first to be shocked.
That strange rhythm of the shot......
Developed a new style of play? Or is it simply a new shot?
Iguodala advanced to the front court and looked at the opponent's outside trio, each with its own characteristics, Liu Mang's single defense is reliable, and the assistance defense is top-notch; Maddie's single defense is strong, especially the shooting interference is extremely strong, and the physical condition is perfect; Granger, a sophomore, Iguodala trained a lot of one-on-one with him last year, and knew that this guy looked bulky, but he had fast hands, great height and reach, and good fights.
The head is big, but you have to fight!
Iguodala gave the ball to Guy, who played Granger with the greatest advantage.
Guy used his burst speed to burst to the left of the three-second zone and threw a shot......
After bouncing on the basket, he fell into the frame, 28-45, and the margin narrowed to 7 points.
It looks promising, it's only the second quarter, but it's ...... Liu Manglang is up!
Liu Mang advanced to the front court and pulled out his hand again on Iguodala's head...... Again!
Liu Mang's shooting posture, after he scored a goal, couldn't give him space to shoot!
Liu Mang hit two three-pointers in a row!
Iguodala didn't dare to let go of Liu Mang half a step next, he needed to adjust to that weird rhythm, and he could only prevent throwing but not breaking through.
Under the leadership of Liu Mang, the Eagles played a wave of 12-7 scoring shockwaves, once again expanding the difference to 11 points.
When the Rockets called a timeout, Iguodala gradually touched the rhythm of Liu Mang's new shooting move.
This rhythm is really good to defend, otherwise Westbrook's mid-range shooting would not be so bad.
This kind of shooting action, not to mention what shooting choice, the grasp of the feel, the angle of the shot, etc., are relatively easy to be limited by the opponent.
But Liu Mang immediately switched back to normal shooting, that is, the standard shooting action, so that Iguodala couldn't get used to it again after he just entered the rhythm of Liu Mang's zombie jump shot......
I have a lot of anti-strange shots, and I feel that normal jump shots are not normal......
Liu Mang scored 18 points and 2 assists in a single quarter!
Helping the Hawks go on a 25-13 run for seven-and-a-half minutes after four and a half minutes in the second quarter, the focus was still on defense, which the Hawks have been emphasizing since the first half of the first quarter today.
With a score of 29-24 in a single quarter, the Hawks stretched the difference to 17 points at halftime!
In the third quarter, the Hawks didn't want to make more trouble, Maddie and Jason Terry went on together, with the lineup of Prince, Rasheed Wallace, and Kwame Brown, and stretched the difference to 22 points in the third quarter in one fell swoop, and after the third quarter, the Hawks led the Rockets by 22 points 91-69 and locked the win!
……
Liu Mang watched Jason Terry take Rondo, Granger, Battier, David Lee and other teammates on the court to stabilize the point difference, Liu Mang, who only scored 20 points in the first half, didn't care too much about his own statistics, 20 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, which was not bad.
Today, Liu Mang's biggest gain is to get the correct use of Rondo and a new path of progress of his own!
Progress, in addition to training, also needs opportunities, Liu Mang's hard-working training shooting ability, so that Liu Mang can quickly find the feeling of using a new shooting bag.
I didn't find this much before, when the opponent defended him in the past, it was mainly to defend his comprehensiveness, he could shoot suddenly, and the ability to fire wantonly within one meter outside the three-point line gave the opponent a headache.
And Iguodala's very successful defense against him this time made Liu Mang feel a little threatened, and then made a little change, this change made Liu Mang suddenly, in addition to continuing to train to strengthen his shooting ability, draw more shooting bags and action bags, and maybe there will be a very good effect at the critical moment.
Even Iguodala, a former teammate who knew him well, couldn't get used to it for a while, let alone anyone else.
And even if the other party adapts quickly, Liu Mang can also change quickly!
In the end, the Hawks defeated the Rockets by 16 points 117-101 and improved their record to 11-5.
……
……
"Don't worry, boss, I'm very modest, the new team is different, I have to take them to play together......"
After beating the Rockets, Iguodala wanted to invite his old teammates to his frequented nightclub that night, but no one from the Hawks' side did......
The Eagles have strict rules and cannot go out at night without permission during consecutive away games......
This is the point that Liu Mang is very worried about Iguodala as an old teammate, don't be led crooked by Bynum.
Bynum, as the core of the Rockets, has a much stronger influence on the team than he did on the Lakers in the original time and space.
Liu Mang, as the former boss, is not worried about offending Iguodala, and reminded him, and Iguodala also knows, but when he is the boss at the beginning, the atmosphere of the new team is like that, and he has to integrate into it.
The Hawks' team features are built around Liu Mang, while the Rockets ...... Last year was already branded as Bynum.
……
The day after playing the Rockets, Liu Mang and his teammates came to San Antonio to prepare for the game.
San Antonio and Memphis, two cities in the southwestern United States bordering Mexico, are exotic.
San Antonio, like Memphis, has a strong Spanish flair.
When he came here, Liu Mang remembered the matter of going to Barcelona to promote in the summer, and then thought of the brother-in-law there, who had to win it in the summer, and in order to avoid being scrambled by the Lakers, he had to find a way to get a draft pick at the end of the first round this year.
The Hawks' own draft pick was given to the Suns, and the top 20 picks were protected, but the Hawks have three eagles, and it is impossible for them to fall out of the top 10 in the league anyway, and they can't take the initiative to lose, and they still have to have a home-court advantage in the first round.
It's too much of a loss to use the Rockets' 15th or 6th picks, and you'll have to figure out how to do it when the time comes.
Because the '06 draft was too bad, the '07 draft had too many talents, and the draft picks were expensive, so you had to figure out how to do it when the time came......
Thinking of this, Liu Mang had some ideas, so he asked Rondo, who had a big bag around his neck and two large boxes behind his back, to put his luggage and go to Coach Kruger by himself.
Rondo thought of the sympathetic tone when the opponent's outside core Iguodala came to chat with him after his outstanding performance of 5 points and 8 assists yesterday, but there was a warm feeling, he was not the only one who had experienced this kind of thing, with the same miserable person, it didn't feel so miserable......
……
The Eagles came to San Antonio, and rest is also part of the preparation, and the three-game tour is still a test of physical strength and patience.
On the Spurs' side, there was a three-day break, the first day was a day off on the 27th, and the 28th and today were all preparing for the game.
Yesterday Popovich secretly went to Houston to watch the game between the Hawks and the Rockets, and there was no national live broadcast, so he could only watch it live, anyway, it was close, and he could fly back to San Antonio in the afternoon and evening.
The Eagles' starters are getting more and more accommodating, and Marion is an all-around defensive player that Popovich admires, and is good at changing his style of play according to the team's style of play and not complaining.
Marion in the original time and space reached the age of 31, and after his ability declined seriously and only averaged 12 points and 6 boards per game, he was able to get a 5-year, 40 million contract with the Mavericks in the summer of 2009 and a long-term contract, because he could bring positive energy to the team, and sure enough, he helped the Mavericks win the championship.
Although the Hawks are only in third place in the East, Popovich still regards the Hawks as their biggest opponent, and the Hawks are not without dominating the West like the Lakers in the 80s, and it is possible to reach seven or eight Finals in ten years! The Spurs want to win the championship and can't avoid the Hawks.
In addition, Duncan is in the limelight right now, which is also a trouble.
And this trouble is still related to the Eagles!
