After winning nine in a row, the Hawks had only one day of rest to play, and the next No. 6 and No. 7, the last two games of five consecutive home games, back-to-back games against the Pacers and Grizzlies.

The Eagles are entering a period of real fatigue, with players spending more time on physical therapy than in previous years, and without Josh Smith and Iguodala, two young players who can be developed as absolute nullis at the heart of other teams, the Eagles have no rotation this season.

At the peak of the round, Liu Mang felt that Rondo and Granger would not be worse than Iguodala, but in the early stage, these two were really not as good as Iguodala and Josh Smith.

Moreover, he has now lost two generals, Korver and Prince.

But the Pacers really don't want to win at all, and if the Bucks and Celtics weren't so bad, they really want to finish last in the East.

Just as the Hawks were playing the Hornets, the Pacers and the Warriors made a deal, and a new captain arrived in Oakland, and the Pacers only got a lottery-protected 2007 first-round pick, sending Stephen Jackson, a league-friendly small forward, to the Warriors.

In fact, Big Bird can send Stephen Jackson anywhere, at least in exchange for a high first-rounder, but Nelson Sr. still has a wide network, and after Nelson Sr. promised to make the playoffs, Big Bird sent Stephen Jackson over to help the Warriors improve their roster.

And the walker ...... There is only one little O'Neill left who has not yet been sold.

O'Neal Jr. is averaging just 20 points and 10 rebounds per game this season, and is averaging 2.9 blocks per game at the age of 29.

But the Pacers didn't want him for a long time and kept peddling, but the big birdie wanted too much in return to be traded.

After all, this is the only top star for the Pacers.

With a day off on the 5th, the Hawks played the Pacers on the 6th.

There is no big problem, the Pacers have no desire to win at all, and they have long not wanted to do so much with only 15-38.

109-99, the Hawks beat the Pacers to get the team's first 10-game winning streak of the season.

In addition to the Hawks, there are four teams that have won at least 10 consecutive games this season, namely the Mavericks' 14-game winning streak, the Bulls' 12-game winning streak, the Cavaliers' 11-game winning streak, and the Suns' 10-game winning streak, and the Hawks became the fifth team to win 10 in a row this season.

But in the game with the Pacers, the Hawks obviously showed a feeling of fatigue, Rondo and Gortat, the two encountered such a terrible January and February schedule in their rookie season, and they seem to have entered the rookie wall recently, mainly due to the impact of fatigue, even Battier and Marion, two Mesozoic players, in the face of the Hawks' recent brutal schedule, also feel unbearable.

Come back to the last three years, the Hawks have been on this schedule and have won at least 68 games per season in that schedule...... The two of them can understand why they both have a 36-15 record this season, but fans have slammed them for their poor record......

Finally, on February 7, in the last game of the latest wave of 9 days and 7 games, against the Grizzlies, the Hawks were upset.

The Grizzlies led by Carlon Butler, even Liu Mang scored 31 points in the first half, and then the shooting collapsed in the second half.

It's not that Liu Mang's physical fitness is affected, but his teammates can't shoot from a distance, the Grizzlies began to defend the basket inside in the second half, and frantically hit Liu Mang on the outside, Liu Mang shot 12 of 17 in the first half, and scored 31 points extremely efficiently, but only 5 of 18 in the second half.

If you want to score high, you need your teammates to have enough containment.

Liu Mang shot 17 of 35 from the field, and the overall shooting percentage looked good, with 47 points, 13 rebounds and 3 assists, and got the 16th 40+ this season, ranking first in the league, but once again became the leader of the empty slash group, and the Hawks ended their 10-game winning streak by the Grizzlies 93-101.

……

Blue sky and white clouds, clear sky......

Liu Mang looked at the clouds outside the plane window, and muttered in his mouth: "Forehead drop god, ......"

Just finished 9 days and 7 games, on the morning of the 8th, the Eagles had to travel a long way to Oklahoma, and on the 9th, 11th, and 13th, 5 days and 3 games came again, and it was three consecutive visitors.

The key is to play the Bulls in the last game...... Or away......

Looking at this schedule, Liu Mang has never looked forward to All-Star Weekend so much.

Seeing this schedule, Liu Mang could only sigh: "Alas...... Forget it, let's abuse CP3 first to relieve the unhappy mood of the master. ”

The efforts of his teammates, Liu Mang saw in his eyes, they all won ten consecutive victories, and no one wanted to lose.

But it's true that he can't keep up, Caron Butler can break in and fly violently, what else can Liu Mang do.

You can't blame your teammates, you can't blame your teammates, you can't blame you for playing too well in the previous three years, winning championships every year.

"It's so lonely to win too many championships!" Liu Mang couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.

On the plane, this is really looking up to the sky and sighing.

Maddie, who was sitting next to Liu Mang, watched Liu Mang start to convulsions again, and didn't know what he was talking about, rolled his eyes, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Liu Mang carefully helped Liu Mang hold the water cup behind Gortat, feeling that his boss might need to go to the doctor......

……

With 14 wins and 39 losses, the Hornets' record makes Liu Mang very satisfied, and they are second to last in the West, second only to the Timberwolves.

With such a record, it is very likely that you can get the top three picks.

Paul has only played 30 games this season, and he has been injured and stopped, which is quite miserable, and this time Paul missed the game again.

However, for Liu Mang, when the team is in a period of fatigue, meeting a team like the Hornets in the bottom three of the league is tantamount to someone giving a pillow when you want to sleep......

Playing the Hornets is even easier than the Pacers, without thinking about tactics at all, Liu Mang throws the ball when he receives it.

Played 41 minutes in the game, 17 of 37 shots, including 7 of 20 three-pointers and 9 of 11 free throws, Liu Mang easily cut 50 points, 8 boards, 5 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks, which helped the Hawks easily defeat the Hornets 122-105 and improve their record to 37-16.

Paul complained to Liu Mang after the game: "Boss Ace, I really want to go back to New Orleans, there is a problem in this city, and I have been unlucky since I came here......"

Liu Mang replied like this: "Chris, you have to be patient, when you choose Durant in the summer, your good days will come." ”

Chris Paul, who is not deeply involved in the world, saw Liu Mang admire the big man pitcher so much, and also looked forward to it: "Boss Ace's vision will not be wrong, he wanted us to fight for Stojakovic and Chandler last year, and now these two are playing so well in the Cavaliers......"

……

On February 10th, it has entered the middle of February, spring is coming, and everything is recovering...... But Toronto is still icy and snowy, and it seems to have a feeling of "spring cold".

In Toronto, which is already cold, basketball fans here feel another cold snap.

Ace Liu is here again!

"No, I'm not afraid at all...... I'm not surprised what kind of performance Ace can play, since I entered the NBA, he has been the strongest player in the world, my opponent is Kwamei, not Ace......" Milicic seemed to have accepted the fact that he had been abused by Liu Mang when he was interviewed......

In general, Milicic's heart is still very fragile, but the Raptors have been carefully cared for, and he can gradually grow to the point where he is now.

People with fragile hearts are often easy to accept fate, and Milicic is like this, he no longer has expectations for defeating Liu Mang.

Every time I thought I had a chance, the last time it turned out to be worse than the last.

In that case, Milicic felt that it was good not to look forward to it.

Milicic is the absolute heart of the Raptors and the leader of the team, but what about ...... He's not fit to be the boss at all.

And Richard Jefferson and contemporary Jordan also do not have the temperament of the boss, and they are not even as domineering as Milicic on the inside.

When Milicic said something like this, Raptors fans felt his sense of despair, let alone his teammates.

On February 11, the second game of the Hawks' three-game tour came to the Canadian Route Center Coliseum to challenge the Raptors away.

To say that in this game, the Hawks played not much better than the Grizzlies and Hornets before, and they were in a very bad state, but the Raptors were in even worse shape!

The Raptors were in a collective slump, and the Hawks were also in a slump, and the two teams contributed a feast of iron......

Liu Mang felt average today, and he was infinitely pinched by the Raptors, but just like that, the rest of the Hawks couldn't shoot and kept hitting the iron.

But the Hawks are already like this, and the Raptors are actually playing more iron......

The Hawks only scored 89 points in the game, but the Raptors only scored 81 points, Liu Mang got 19 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, Maddie got 13 points and 6 assists, Marion scored 20 points, and the Hawks scored double figures on these three, with the highest score of only 20, but they won in the end......

After the game, the domestic media gave the game a news headline of "Rookies peck at each other, old chickens win".

Although it is a derogatory title, Liu Mang felt so apt when he saw this news......

……

……

"Stern finally did what a human being does!" Liu Mang sighed.

"Ace, don't go out and talk nonsense, otherwise that old man will know about it, and he will definitely target you." Battier warned.

"Yes, yes, I know, Mr. President." Liu Mang quipped.

The Hawks had 55 games before All-Star Weekend this season, similar to other teams, most teams had 53 to 55 games before All-Star Weekend, and after a brutal 17 games in a single month in January and a brutal schedule of seven games in the first 13 days in February, the Hawks have caught up with other teams in terms of games.

38-16, and finally, with a recent 12-1 record, the Hawks have improved their record and have the possibility of hitting 55 wins or even 60 wins.

Liu Mang looked at his average data of 32.3 points, 8.3 boards, 2.7 assists, 2.3 blocks and 1.3 steals per game, as well as his current record, and he was in a beautiful mood.

Yesterday he won so badly, Liu Mang thought that he was going to interrupt the winning streak against Milicic, but he didn't expect to win like that.

Winning a game like that, a game that is purely won by luck, of course makes people happy, and if you are lucky, you will always be happy.

What makes Liu Mang even happier is that his teammates are in high spirits after coming to Chicago today!

The reason is simple...... All-Star Weekend is coming!

On February 12, the NBA officially announced the All-Star bench lineup.

There were a lot of problems in the selection of this year's All-Star bench, which led to the delay in the release of the All-Star bench roster.

Ray Allen's change of team and Boozer's injury made a lot of adjustments to the Western All-Star team after it was selected.

is mainly discussing, after the coaches voted for Ray Allen, after the change of team, does the previous choice count?

The coaches chose the All-Star bench, except for the time when Jordan and Abdul-Jabbar were selected, it was for the sake of face, and the selection of his All-Star bench was basically a choice made by a combination of data + record + coach impression and other factors, of which the record accounted for a large part, just like the Pistons Five Tigers in the original time and space, the data were very average, but as many as four people were selected for the All-Star bench lineup.

Finally, with two days left before the All-Star Weekend holiday, the NBA officially announced the All-Star bench lineup, confirming that Ray Allen will still be a member of the All-Star bench after switching to the Jazz.

In the West, Ray Allen, Steve Nash, Josh Howard, Carmelo Anthony, Dirk Nowitzki, Josh Smith, and Carlos Boozer were all named to the All-Star bench.

Due to Boozer's injury and inability to participate in All-Star Weekend, the Jazz's Memet Oku replaced Boozer as an All-Star.

And the reason why the Hawks are excited is that in addition to playing one more game and having seven days of rest, there is also the Eastern All-Star bench lineup!

Kwame Brown and Marion were named to the All-Star bench together!

Originally, only Kwame Brown was selected.

Originally, the Eastern Conference All-Star bench was selected along with Gilbert Arenas, Vince Carter, Joe Johnson, Darko Milicic, Chris Bosh, Kwame Brown, and Tyson Chandler.

But with Chris Bosh unable to play in this All-Star Game due to a chest injury, David Stern appointed Marion to replace Bosh in the All-Star bench.

Liu Mang, Maddie, Marion, and Kwame Brown were selected for the All-Star Game!

The recent record is good, in the last 21 days, the Hawks have won 12-1, and now the two interior players have been selected for the All-Star bench, and said that they invited guests to Las Vegas to relax during the All-Star weekend, and the players are naturally happy.

Physical exhaustion often leads to more mental exhaustion, but psychological exhaustion is reduced, which will make the body more excited to a certain extent.

After receiving the positive stimulus, the Eagles players found that they have been playing well lately!

When other teams, including the Mavericks, started losing in the middle of the season, they bucked the trend to a 12-1 record, and they had the best record in the league from the second half of January to the beginning of February.

Although the overall record is only fifth in the league...... But that doesn't matter.

After relieving their mental exhaustion, the Hawks players are ready to play their final game before All-Star Weekend and want a good half season to a close!
