822. The envy of the strongest team in history

Every time Liu Mang goes to New York, he will make trouble.

Every time he arrived at Madison Square Garden, Liu Mang's urge to pretend to be forced could not be suppressed.

Not to mention ridiculing the American team, in recent years, the American men's basketball team has been ridiculed in the United States.

This time, Liu Mang made the scorers angry!

On Charlotte's side, Boss Joe, who watched the Hawks game on a whim, saw Liu Mang's post-game interview, and pulled the players of his own team out to practice early the next morning, so that they could see the Eagles fight to the death in the next game.

It's that kind of confidence, the Bobcats have only won two games so far this season, but it's that confident......

In Los Angeles, a No. 8 player who was struggling to hold on to fifth place in the West was so angry that he practiced for a few more hours.

As for Maddie, who was on the same team as Liu Mang, he chased Liu Mang to no avail, so he could only silently watch Liu Mang pretend, but Maddie didn't care: the scoring champion, who hasn't won it, it's not a big deal......

After the game between the Hawks and the Knicks, in addition to Liu Mang's basketball mecca at least twice a year, the biggest concern that the Hawks attracted was that they really started to attack at a fast pace!

The rhythm of these two games can be compared to the Suns!

The records of both teams are already the same, both are 10 wins and 2 losses.

The Suns are now averaging 109.5 points per game and the Hawks are 107.5 points, the gap is not very big, but the Hawks are pulling up the average points per game by playing the Rockets, and there is still a bit of a gap between the Suns and the Suns' stable average of about 110 points per game.

The media reasoned that there was nothing but an incredible answer: Are the Hawks trying to compete with the Suns for the title of the most ferocious offensive team?

……

……

"Ace, why are you dressed like this?" Rashid Wallace asked curiously.

"I'm afraid of the cold, winter is coming." Liu Mang put on his mask and hat.

"But why do you even wear sunglasses?"

“…… I'm allergic to the sun! ”

“……”

Seeing Liu Mang wrapped like a terrorist, Rashid Wallace was confused, but still pulled Liu Mang out with him.

After the two games of small ball, the Eagles players played quite happily, averaging 98 shots per game in both games, a significant improvement from the previous average of 85 shots per game.

The small-ball tactics have not only brought more shots and scores, but also more rebounds, and Liu Mang is one of the beneficiaries.

The one who benefited the most was of course Kwame Brown, who averaged 14 points and 12.5 rebounds per game in twelve games, and became the team's top scorer in the frontcourt.

Liu Mang benefited the most from the offensive end, scoring has become easier, Maddie's offensive containment, the offensive threat brought by the team's athleticism, and in the end, it is the scoring core Liu Mang who has benefited, and the efficiency has been greatly improved compared to last season.

The new rules, coupled with an offensive style similar to running and shooting, have greatly benefited Liu Mang, a player with all-round scoring ability.

The coaching staff works overtime every day, and can always see the problem after each game, although the opponent is beaten without discipline, but the Hawks coaching staff also sees a problem, facing the opponent with huge containment on the inside, even if the opponent can't receive the ball, the opponent can be pulled down by the opponent; Playing the Knicks is to find that when encountering a chaotic team, the run-and-bomb team is not very dominant.

The Hawks' road trip continued, and the day after the Knicks, the Hawks moved to Boston, another big city in the East.

After arriving in Boston, Liu Mang was dragged by Rashid Wallace, who had a strong affection for education and art, to Cambridge, which is across the river from Boston, saying that it is a city, but in fact it is just a large town connected to Boston, with a population of only tens of thousands, but the people here are very rich.

It's one of the best places to educate in the United States, with two very famous universities.

But...... Although it is called the city of Cambridge, the most famous university is not called Cambridge University, which is in the United Kingdom......

The most famous universities here are Harvard University and MIT, and Rashid Wallace took Liu Mang to visit the university town.

As for why Liu Mang dressed like that, after arriving at the college town across the Charles River, where students are in the majority, Rashid Wallace understood, and people kept raising their middle fingers when they walked past the two.

Before Liu Mang came to Boston, he saw the results of a survey on the Internet, and the city in the East that hated the Hawks the most was not New Jersey, where the Nets are located, nor Detroit, where the Pistons were located, but Boston.

According to the replies of the Celtics fans in the post, Liu Mang has a general understanding of the mentality of Celtics fans, mainly because the legend of the Celtics has been shaken.

The Celtics are the second most legendary team in NBA history, mainly because of the eight consecutive championships, and on the whole, they are not as continuous as the legend of the Lakers with 15 championships, so when the Bulls won 6 championships in 8 years, the legend of the Celtics suffered an impact.

Therefore, the antipathy of Celtics fans towards the defending champions is very big, the team they hated the most last season was the Spurs, and now the team they hate the most is the Celtics.

And the city of Cambridge and the city of Boston are separated by a river, in fact, they are in a metropolitan area, and they all support the Celtics, of course, they will see that the Eagles are unhappy.

Seeing the hateful Rashid Wallace, he naturally gave the middle finger as a greeting.

Rashid Wallace wanted to bathe in the glory of education in the holy land of education and cultivate his sentiments, but he didn't expect to get off the bus before he walked into the university gate, and he had a feeling that he would be beaten at any time, so he could only end this college tour hastily......

……

After a night of rest in Boston, the Eagles' pregame training began on Nov. 22, the match day of the Eagles' second consecutive away game.

At this stage, the first game month has come to an end, and the number of games lost by teams across the league has begun to increase.

Only the Pistons, 12-1 in the opening game, have to fly!

The main reason is that Coach Philip Sanders has a very good relationship with Billups, and Billups has a firm foothold for the first time, throwing off the title of parallel trade, that is, in the 01-02 season, he was in full attendance in the first 82 games of the Timberwolves, playing 12+3+5 data, helping the forest to get 50-32, and Coach Sanders is Billups' mentor.

So in the summer of '05, Coach Sanders just took over the Pistons and led the Pistons to a team-high 64 wins in the 05-06 season when the roster has aged.

Now taking over the Pistons a year early, the lineup is one year younger, especially when Ben Wallace, who is aging very quickly, is at his peak, and more importantly, Chris Bosh is more familiar to Coach Sanders than Rasheed Wallace, and gives full play to Bosh's ability, the Pistons lineup is already strong, and it occupies the top spot at the beginning of this season.

The Pistons showed great dominance in the other 11 games, except for one game that was eliminated by the Rockets, who normally played on the road.

The two strongest remaining teams are the Suns and Hawks, who have lost two.

The rest of the teams started to lose more, with the Heat and Spurs, the least likely teams in the top three, losing four games.

A more chaotic league has brought about strong teams losing earlier than in previous years.

The main thing is that many teams that won with iron-blooded defense in the past were blown apart at the beginning, and everyone couldn't adapt to it.

On the contrary, the Hawks, Suns, and Pistons with big changes in lineup and style of play have made good use of the current rules.

But this does not mean that the Hawks dare to relax easily, playing the Celtics today can't be as casual as playing the Knicks, and playing the Knicks almost overturned, making the Hawks players and coaching staff more vigilant.

Opponents in the regular season can't have as much research time as in the playoffs, and they don't start studying until a day or two before the game, and if it's back-to-back, there will be very little research.

Yesterday the players had an afternoon off, got the scouting report and looked at it for themselves, the coaching staff was working on countermeasures, and this morning they came to the rented university stadium for tactical training, told the players about the tactical strategies they had researched, and then started training.

……

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Eagles came to the North Shore Garden Course, and today's game started early, mainly because Boston, which is located in the Northeast, is too cold!

Especially at night in Boston, there is a kind of weather in the United States, called Boston Storm, which is what I said, in Boston in winter, after nightfall, there is a snowstorm from time to time, and then as soon as the day dawns, hey, the snow stops.

So the most lucrative worker in Boston is the winter road cleaner who can operate mechanically, working for four months and a whole year, talking about Boston's snow clearers.

Liu Mang is very motivated today, and he is always so motivated against a team with 16 championship flags.

At 4:15 p.m., Liu Mang and his teammates came to the stadium together, and they were greeted by "cordial" when they entered as players of the away team.

As the defending champion, Liu Mang felt the feeling of being hated by Celtic fans, and he enjoyed it quite a bit.

Being jealous of the fans of the team with the most championships in the history of the league, Liu Mang thinks it's quite good.

Liu Mang's attitude affected his teammates, all of them were not afraid, and after Liu Mang was the last to enter, the whole team walked into the stadium with their heads held high.

Coming out of the field was the Celtics' starters, with Antoine Walker coming in first and Pierce last.

At half past four, the game started on time, and a handful of magnesium powder was sprinkled, which attracted bursts of boos, and Liu Mang walked onto the court.

The Eagles' starting lineup has not changed, and it is so stable that other teams are jealous, and other teams can only envy the Eagles' "good life", the role players are powerful, mainly because of the draft, so that the main force can play more easily, and the tactics are good because of their talent, so that Anji, who has saved two years of draft picks, is envious and jealous, he won't choose people with draft picks!

The Celtics' starting lineup is Payton, Delonte West, Pierce, Antoine Walker, Reeve Lafrentz.

Seeing that the twin stars are there, Liu Mang seems to dream back to two years ago, and the Celtics' record this season is also similar to that of two years ago, with a 6-6 start, just a fifty-percent win rate ranked in the top eight in the East, and the core players are still Pierce and Antoine Walker, but Pierce is no longer humble to the big brother, but has settled on his boss's position.

However, Liu Mang feels that the Celtics only have a 50% win rate this season, which is purely unlucky, who let a large number of stars travel east this season?

Otherwise, the Celtics' lineup will be enough to compete for the top four in the 02-03 season, but this season they must compete with the Nets for the top spot in the region to be able to enter the top four by virtue of the top spot in the region, and Kidd and Carter are getting better and better this season, and the Celtics don't seem to have much chance.

The two teams, whether they are hostile to each other or unilaterally, will affect the players of both teams, and after the players of both teams entered, no one greeted each other because of the strong hostility of the fans on the scene to the defending champions.

As soon as he walked onto the court and waited for Kwame Brown to jump on the court after provoking the visiting fans with magnesium powder on the sidelines, Liu Mang suddenly received a task......

"Ding...... Legendary Quest: The Envy of the Strongest Team in History. ”
