426. The champion who joined in the fun
Jordan's beautiful step-back jumper!
This picture is too familiar, Jordan's strongest killer move!
Seeing that the 40-year-old Jordan could easily score two points on the head of Rahim, who is now very recognized for his offense and defense, and had a height disadvantage of a full eight centimeters, even Hawks fans couldn't help but cheer Jordan.
Then, just when Jordan wanted to provoke Liu Mang, he saw that Liu Mang was gone!
turned around and saw that Liu Mang had already rushed through the half! Fortunately, at this time, Stackhouse had already retreated first.
Obviously, Stackhouse was very jealous of Liu Mang's speed, and immediately returned to defense when he saw Jordan shoot.
Muhammad picked up the ball and gave it to Rahim, who threw it straight to the front!
Liu Mang received the ball outside the three-point line, and glanced at Starkerhouse in front of him when he received the ball, this guy has really improved a lot of defense after coming to the Wizards this year, and it is a bit of a favorite for the Mavericks' best sixth man contender in the future, or it may be that he was trained by Coach Carlisle during the Pistons period, and his sense of retreat is excellent.
Liu Mang did not hesitate, received the ball and continued to rush inside, Stackhouse pounced after Liu Mang entered the free throw line, wanting to give Liu Mang physical contact.
At this time, Liu Mang slapped the ball to the ground, and Starhouse was stepping out with his legs a little wide, and the ball was like a part of Liu Mang's body, accurately passing through Stackhouse's crotch, Liu Mang turned his back at the same time to bypass Starhouse, grabbed the ball with one hand at the moment he received the ball under the basket, and jumped to dunk the ball into the basket!
Starhouse was shaken and dazed, Liu Mang turned around and wiped it too fast, and the ball didn't know where it went, and his whole person seemed to be stuck in "Who am I?" at that moment. Where am I? What am I going to do? Where am I going? "A complete state of bewilderment.
When I heard the sound of the dunk coming to my ears, I secretly screamed that it was not good, and when I turned my head, Liu Mang just fell from the basket!
Utter play!
Jordan just scored a beautiful signature step-back jumper, and Liu Mang immediately returned it with a younger and more energetic performance!
The way the two score goals is completely different, Jordan's style of play relies more and more on feel and strength, which is slightly twilight, while Liu Mang's side is using the young man's style of play, speed, bounce and the mentality of the young man who wants to play with the opponent!
Jordan smiled, not only was he prepared, but the other party was also prepared!
Starhouse was shocked and angry at Liu Mang's ball at this time!
Because the last time he played the Hawks at home, Starkerhouse saw Liu Mang throwing and throwing waves on the outside, and he didn't see Liu Mang's rapid bounce and dunk, he felt that Liu Mang after growing stronger, it was unlikely that the bounce would be too much, and he didn't have a game with the strong Chinese outside, so he just thought that Liu Mang was going to go to the basket, but he didn't expect the other party to come directly to such a hand.
Humiliated! Stackhouse has the feeling of going to a tryout for the team in the summer of 1996 again!
Hughes ran back to receive Stackhouse's serve and pushed it forward, but this time Stackhouse didn't pick up the ball and ran straight to the bottom corner of the other side.
Stackhouse, though in his head, knew that today's game had turned into a showdown between Jordan and that nasty sophomore.
Jordan is a different person, he has already established his invincible position in basketball, when he is a player, he is a existence that no one can win, and when he is an owner, he is an existence that no one can win.
Stackhouse has sincere respect for Jordan, both of them are from North Carolina, Stackhouse has been a die-hard fan of Jordan since he was a child, and now he is still looking forward to Jordan teaching the sophomore a good lesson, afraid that he can't help but shoot with the ball, which will ruin Jordan's business.
Liu Mang was very surprised, he made several preparations to prevent Jordan.
The first one, of course, is to defend Jordan strictly, during the tactical meeting in the afternoon, Liu Mang suggested that Rahim and Prince are mainly responsible for preventing Jordan today, Prince must have no opinion, he is a pure professional athlete who can arrange how the tactics are arranged, Rahim has no opinion, he is now more interested in making the playoffs than the data, but he is a little puzzled to prevent Jordan from killing Jordan, isn't Starhouse stronger, but after hearing Liu Mang's pre-game declaration, everything is easy to understand.
Raheem's single defense is first-class, where is the body, and the attitude defense is naturally not bad, Prince is a future defensive expert, 22-year-old He is a little thinner than the Pistons Five Tigers, and his skills and awareness are already very mature.
The defense of these two people is Liu Mang's first-hand preparation to defend against Jordan.
The second preparation is to stimulate Stackhouse, a guy with a frighteningly low shooting percentage, who has a career shooting rate of less than 41 percent and a perennial shooting rate of less than 40 percent.
Because the Wizards' lineup is slow, Liu Mang can counterattack and attack the basket directly.
But I didn't expect Starhouse to hold back his desire to score points!
This made Liu Mang very surprised.
It's just that Stackhouse's three-point ability ...... It's so far from Larry Hughes! The effect of opening up the space is too small!
Larry Hughes's shooting rate this season is 47+36, Stackhouse is 39+29, Liu Mang saw Larry Rest pass the ball to Jordan, and rushed to the basket without hesitation, and wrapped Jordan with Rahim!
Jordan's passing is not bad, he has an average of 8 assists per game in the season, the first time to distribute the ball to the other side of the basket in the bottom corner of the Stackhouse, Stackhouse received a pass from God, and was about to be unable to suppress the desire to throw, this time he couldn't hold it down at all, and he shot directly after receiving the ball for three points!
Seeing Starkerhouse receiving the ball and shooting, Liu Mang rushed to the front court without looking back, although the Hawks played poorly in the first two months, the rebounding has been pretty good, averaging 45 rebounds per game so far this season, ranking fifth in the league, second only to the Pistons, Spurs, Timberwolves, and Lakers.
And the Wizards rebound the fourth from the bottom in the league, on the one hand, there are not many people who can grab rebounds, Kwame Brown, Leitner, Jordan, the three are the best rebounds of the Wizards, but the entire Wizards, as far as their three rebounds are more than 6, and none of them have more than 7.
Larry Hughes didn't react at the top arc, watching Liu Mang pass by him, he really didn't think that anyone would play like this!
Just when Liu Mang just rushed out of the three-point line, Stackhouse's three points were unexpectedly iron! Stackhouse's daily iron, three or four three-pointers per game to score once, this time the luck is not so good, hit the rebound and bounce high!
Just when Ratliffe saw the ball fall towards his side and was about to accept a rebound, Kwame Brown was very active at this time, using his excellent bounce to shoot the ball out of everyone's surprise, Larry Hughes was surprised to receive the ball, this is really unexpected! They are averaging only 8.5 offensive rebounds per game, the lowest in the league, and I really didn't expect it to be Kwame Brown who grabbed an offensive rebound.
Larry Hughes, who received the ball, was stunned for a moment, then started quickly! He is a very comprehensive guard swing man, he used to be a breakthrough-based in the Warriors, and he came to the Wizards to develop three points, taking advantage of the fact that the Hawks' defensive position has been completely messed up because of grabbing rebounds, the key is that Liu Mang has rushed out of the middle line, and now 5 to 4!
When Larry Hughes rushed to the three-point line, there was no one in front of him, Prince just went in to grab a rebound, when Larry Hughes rushed to the free throw line, it was useless for Prince to defend again, Larry Hughes had fully picked up, at this time Prince went up to the basket to make a defensive foul, and if he stepped back, he watched the opponent go to the basket or throw, so he could only stand still as a pillar in anticipation of an offensive foul.
Larry Hughes leans over and staggers Prince to jump! That's when Ratliff came over to make up for it! When Prince saw that Rutliffe was coming, he hurried to double the bag.
Larry Hughes passed the ball to the right side of the basket in the air, not a shot, but a pass!
Kwame Brown leaps high, almost head-flat to the height of the frame, and presses the ball into the basket!
It's not okay to hold the ball, but it's still okay for the champion to catch it empty!
Kwame Brown's rebound, a dunk that was close to a flat frame, surprised everyone!
What a surprise for this ball!
I didn't expect that it was Kwame Brown, who was known as the most parallel champion in history, especially even the Clippers' Olowokandi was grateful for saving his parallel champion, and everyone didn't expect that in this round of offense, Kwame Brown actually became a key figure!
In addition to that, Kwame Brown's super physical fitness on two bounces is amazing!
A big center can dunk in a flat frame! It's incredible!
