"Sean, how are you feeling?" Liu Mang asked Marion.

"It's great, I'm fully recovered." Marion smiled brightly.

Marion's smile really made Liu Mang feel ...... It's time to join the NBA's Big Five, and just as Sprewell disappeared into the NBA, Marion could join.

"But Sean, you won't be able to play for long today." Liu Mang reminded.

Marion nodded to Liu Mang and said, "It's okay, I can play and contribute, if I don't play well, I'm embarrassed to play." ”

Feeling Marion's personality traits as a person who has not clashed with any teammates in his entire career, not even Stephen Marbury, Liu Mang feels Marion after Marion's injury...... It's no worse than getting Garnett.

It may be possible to get Garnett, which does make the team better right away, but what kind of impact will Garnett have on the Hawks' team culture......

Liu Mang estimates that the negative effect is greater than the positive effect!

From what Liu Mang knows about the original time and space, Garnett, whether in the Timberwolves or the Celtics, has not helped establish any effective team continuity.

On the contrary, players like Marion played a good role in demonstrating the teammates that Liu Mang recruited in the future.

……

……

The Hawks played the Cavaliers for the first time this season, and the attention was overwhelming.

The Hawks have not had a good record so far this season, and they are still the first in the division, but the regular season has lost the dominance of the past few years, and the Cavaliers have just climbed to the top of the East, and are seen as a strong challenger to the Hawks' dominance in the East.

Especially this season, the league and the media are praising the Cavaliers, mainly James, hoping that he can beat Liu Mang as a representative of American players.

It is a key point for James to defeat Liu Mang and break the invincible tragedy against Liu Mang, whether it is the regular season, the playoffs or the national team games, James has never won Liu Mang once.

Cavaliers fans and James fans can't wait to see James stand up in front of Liu Mang and not be a younger brother forever.

The Lakers won Liu Mang, for many Americans, it is not considered that American basketball defeated Liu Mang, because the Lakers have two cores of non-American players, Yao Ming and Gasol, both of whom are the top superstars in the world basketball.

Although the Cavaliers also have Serbia's Peja, Peja was abandoned by the Kings, and his performance last season was extremely poor, and he averaged 3.5 three-pointers per game when he came to James this season, ranking second in the league, a full 0.5 more than Ray Allen's 3 three-pointers per game, second only to Liu Mang, who averaged 3.8 three-pointers per game, and the three-point shooting rate was as high as 44 percent, and it was the highest shooting rate among the three super shooters who averaged at least 3 three-pointers per game.

Peja averaged 18 points, 4 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, and James' breakaway points contributed a lot.

James represents the American Dream of the NBA, and his slum background makes him the most suitable representative of the American Dream promoted by the media, as well as the positive image of the NBA.

……

Before the afternoon warm-up, the Hawks were still having a headache about who to defend James.

James has performed better this season, averaging 1.7 three-pointers per game, and is good at ultra-long-distance step-back three-pointers, can't put outside shots, and it's difficult for anyone to limit James's start, rushing is more terrible than throwing three-pointers in the open space.

Coach Kruger and Mike Woodson couldn't help it, and they used to be okay and could pinch James, but this season with Peja, who averaged 3.5 three-pointers per game, Damon Jones also got up when he reached the contract year, averaging a career-high 1.9 three-pointers per game.

"Coach, let Sean defend against James." Liu Mang suggested.

Battier stood up and said, "I'm fine, I'll try." ”

"It's not you," Liu Mang was a little embarrassed, "I'm talking about Sean Marion, Marion!" ”

Battier was also embarrassed, but relieved and sat down with a sneer.

Coach Kruger thought at first that Liu Mang asked Battier to defend against James, and was startled, the last time he played against the Spurs, Battier defended Artest...... It's called a blood, and the standing position is right, but I can't pull it when I rush in.

"Me?" When Marion heard the name Sean, he also thought it was Battier, but he didn't expect it to be himself.

"Yes, we all believe you can do it!" Liu Mang said in a very sincere tone, and before he said that, he turned on the head mode......

So sincere, so trusting him who has just returned from injury, Marion feels a little happy!

This kind of trust is something that the Suns don't have.

Just like the chips that were used to exchange for O'Neal in the original time and space, the Suns had the opportunity to get Josh Smith and Calderon, and took the initiative to use him as a bargaining chip without hesitation......

But when he came to the Eagles, Marion gradually felt that the Eagles valued him, and although his scoring dropped a lot, the coaching staff kept trying to find a way to integrate him into the team, instead of giving up when he saw that he was difficult to fit into the offensive end, and didn't just think about treating him as a coolie.

It felt amazing for Marion!

"I see, I'll do my best to defend James!" Marion nodded solemnly.

Coach Kruger and Mike Woodson then remembered that there was Marion, mainly because Marion came to the Hawks as an inside lineman, and the outside line was fully manned, and then they remembered that Marion is also a forward against tough ability!

And Prince is tall enough, there is no big problem in preventing Gooden's mid-range shots, and the Cavaliers have James, so they won't let Gooden go to the inside singles, and the efficiency is not as good as James's own strong shots.

There's a way to deal with it!

Mike Woodson immediately figured out a defensive strategy to deal with the Cavaliers, and the Hawks worked out urgently after warming up......

Liu Mang has been thinking about how to defend James, and still remembers that in 2011, the Mavericks who shocked the world overturned the Heat Big Three, and the Mavericks relied on Marion and DeSean Stevenson to defend James on the outside, and Kidd and Barria on the inside to defend James.

Although DeSean Stevenson and Barria are famous, Marion, who averaged 35 minutes per game in the finals, and Kidd, who averaged 37 minutes per game, are the key!

Marion has just recovered from a finger injury, and has not practiced shooting with his right hand for nearly half a month, and only began recovery shooting training the day before yesterday.

But...... The finger hurts, but it doesn't hurt anywhere else, right?

Make the best use of it!
