Killing!

Let's kill!

Liu Mang has been comparing assists and three-pointers with Nash.

But the Suns rely exclusively on three-point shots to eat, and the Hawks have Liu Mang, a super three-pointer who averages 4 three-pointers per game, the first in history, but the Hawks' three-point shooting rate is only fifth in the league, and there is a certain gap compared with the Suns, Warriors, SuperSonics, and Mavericks.

The Hawks now play four fewer games than the Heat, and they will play three fewer games than the Heat even if they count the game against the Suns.

Don't care so much about it for now, just roll up your sleeves and do it.

Overall, the third quarter was played well, because there was really no defense against the opponent and there was no defense, only Kwame Brown was a little tired, and Kwame Brown also rested for half a quarter in the second half of the third quarter, and in the fourth quarter, the Hawks re-sent the strongest combination of the three eagles plus Marion and Kwame Brown.

On the Suns' side, Nash, Ragapel, Josh Smith, Kurt Thomas, and Dio played.

The Eagles attacked first, and Liu Mang received the serve and advanced to the frontcourt.

Liu Mang saw Raga Bell coming up and stuck very tightly, trying to squeeze through when he and his teammates were blocking and dismantling, not giving the Eagles space to block him, and would rather let Liu Mang break through than give him a three-point chance and a chance to block and pass the ball.

Seeing this, Liu Mang immediately beckoned to find Maddie to block and dismantle, when Maddie approached Liu Mang's right side, Raga Bell immediately raised his arm, wanting to separate the space between Liu Mang and Maddie's blocking, this is what Liu Mang wanted!

It was already ready, Liu Mang grabbed the ball with his right hand and slammed it to the right from bottom to top, hitting the arm behind Liu Mang's back......

"Anderwan!"

Liu Mang's arm hit Raja Bell's arm, and the ball was knocked out of his hand.

"Ding...... Porcelain Touching Master Level 5 triggers ......"

The referee really didn't want to blow the ball, but thinking that he was a professional referee, he couldn't be rash......

"Beep......

The referee's whistle was a beat slower, and when Laga Bell saw the ball out of Liu Mang's hand, he pounced on the ball and hugged it, and the referee's whistle sounded.

The audience immediately burst into boos.

In the slow-motion replay of the live TV screen, Liu Mang didn't aim at the basket at all, threw the ball to the right, and was still shouting 2+1 in his mouth, Rao is an Eagles fan watching the game in front of the TV, and he felt hot on his face.

But there's also a sense of excitement that something bad has been done......

Amid the boos of the fans, the referee gestured three free throws towards the technical table.

Raja Bell got up and complained to the referee: "He's not shooting!" ”

Nash and Josh Smith also went up to complain to the referees.

The referee was helpless, his first reaction was that this ball was definitely not for shooting, when Liu Mang grabbed the ball and picked up his arms, his body was almost perpendicular to the rebound, but the rules are like this, maybe people like to shoot horizontally......

Raga Bell wanted to kill Liu Mang, but he didn't dare!

He dares to commit crimes against anyone, James and Carter, but since the villain Liu Mang was carried to the hospital three years ago, Laga Bell has always been very frightened of Liu Mang, and after seeing so many people who committed crimes against Liu Mang but was seriously injured by himself, Liu Mang's reputation as a "plague god" has spread in the NBA villain world.

Liu Mang walked to the free throw line and took a deep breath, there were not many free throws today, only 3 in the first three quarters, and this time he got three at once, which is quite exciting.

Hit all three free throws!

98-97, the Hawks overtook by 1 point!

When it came to the Suns' offense, Liu Mang went to defend Nash, and Maddy went to defend Josh Smith in the air.

It was when he defended Nash and switched to Josh Smith that Maddie could get excited.

Nash arrived in the front court and continued to hand the ball to Dio and let Dio instigate the attack, but when Dio received the ball and wanted to direct his teammates to run, he found that there was no need to run, and Kurt Thomas was directly empty!

Kurt Thomas pulled into the middle range to try to pull Kwame Brown out, but Kwame Brown ignored it, standing on the edge of the three-second zone, in and out.

Facing Marion's defence, Dio hesitated and passed the ball to Kurt Thomas instead of Josh Smith, who had already cut inside under Maddy's defense.

Kurt Thomas received the ball, and Maddy, who followed Josh Smith into the inside, immediately pounced on Kurt Thomas, who shook and didn't shoot, protected the ball to the high post, and re-put the ball in Nash's hands.

Seeing that there were only 10 seconds left, Nash didn't hesitate and took advantage of Kurt Thomas's pick-and-roll to make a mid-range pullup jump shot on the left side......

Maddie was already in time to switch defenses, but Nash is Nash, and a steady mid-range shot also went in.

99-98, the Suns still lead by 1 point!

Offense and defense switched, the Eagles attacked, Liu Mang advanced to the front court with the ball, and Laga Bell didn't dare to defend like in the first leg this time, so he could only stick to Liu Mang.

Raja Bale is really a troublesome character, moving fast, making a lot of small movements, not easily out of position, and has excellent defensive anticipation...... It was difficult to entangle the opponent, so Liu Mang used the trick of touching porcelain, and originally wanted to continue, but the other party didn't give him a chance.

Then rush to the inside!

With Maddie's anti-demolition, Liu Mang rushed into the inside line, Josh Smith came over, Liu Mang didn't pass, and took the initiative to stick to Josh Smith.

In view of the understanding of Liu Mang, and the foul made by Raga Bell just now, Josh Smith did not dare to make a big move to defend it, Liu Mang took advantage of the opponent's mentality, pressed up to maintain physical balance, and threw to score two points.

The Suns do a good job of defending alone, but they can't play team defense without a big center, and they can't play team offense when they have a big center.

The Suns tried to strengthen their defense at the beginning of the fourth quarter, but they couldn't succeed, and the Maimang combination, who had already entered the groove, gradually gained the upper hand with Jason Terry and Marion in the battle against the Suns.

Liu Mang thought that the Suns had a chance to get rid of the Spurs, and the reason why he felt that there was a chance was because the characteristics of the Suns playing now were very different from their plans when they brought in reinforcements in the summer!

They want to be a team like the Hawks, but O'Neal and Laga Bell, a defensive stalwart with defensive strength, are not compatible at all, mainly on the offensive end, Laga Bell likes to run and shoot, and O'Neal can only fall into position.

The Suns are now starting a set of tactics and a second lineup with a set of tactics, and the offensive end is quite powerful, but on the defensive end, they don't know how to arrange the lineup with players with outstanding defense such as Double Thomas, Laga Bell, Josh Smith, and O'Neal.

This is also the key to the Hawks being pressed in the half of the court today, because it is very different from the dirty defense that the Suns may play, and their two lineups are offensive and unsolvable, but the problem on the defensive end is huge.

In the third quarter, the Hawks had the upper hand with the main force, and by the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Hawks were more comfortable with the Suns' current five-small lineup.

Although Liu Mang still did not defend well with the high post of the opponent Dioganash and Josh Smith, Mike Woodson thought of a temporary solution, allowing the ball to appear in the hands of Josh Smith and Kurt Thomas as much as possible, so that the two players with poor mid-range and long-range shots could catch the ball more, and Kwame Brown guarded under the basket to protect the basket.

Although this can't prevent the Suns from blocking and dismantling, at least it restricts the high-level strategy of the three major offensive masters of the most tricky Suns starting lineup with Dio as the axis.

No matter how much the Suns can shoot, they can't score all threes in a game, and their open cut scoring is quite powerful, Mike Woodson did not give the Suns a chance to play high, reducing their open cut opportunities, and the Hawks managed to take a 3-point lead at 109-106 in the third minute of the fourth quarter.

The focus is on Liu Mang's killing on the offensive end, after quickly scoring 5 points in a row at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Hawks and Suns took the lead alternately, and finally, after Liu Mang scored 8 points in a row and gave Kwame Brown and Maddy an assist each, the Hawks scored 14 points in 4 of 7 shots in the first four minutes, successfully overtook the score, and stretched the difference to 3 points, truly controlling the initiative!

The Hawks have adjusted, the Suns have also adjusted, the Suns have adjusted their defense, mainly blocking the Hawks' three-point and mid-range, but Liu Mang used his three-point threat to attract Laga Bell's sticky defense, blocking and breaking through again and again, no outside scoring, Liu Mang scored two goals, Kwame Brown scored a ball, Marion scored a ball, plus Liu Mang hit a total of 5 free throws and hit 4, blowing up the Suns basket!

Although the Suns also scored 9 points in 4 minutes and were very efficient, just the mid-range shots, three-pointers and basket opportunities were blocked, and the two scoring methods they are best at couldn't be played, and having a lot of mid-range shots couldn't improve the efficiency.

After Liu Mang hit one of two free throws, the Suns called a timeout.

Coach Gentry brought Calderon and O'Neal into early substitutions, while Nash and Josh Smith and Dio remained on the court.

In the first half, even in the third quarter when the Hawks scored 38 points in a single quarter, Coach Gentry's substitutions were solid, and it was not his fault that the Hawks led by 6 points in a single quarter in the third quarter.

But this time Coach Gentry's substitution is panicked!

The timeout came back and the Suns attacked.

When the Suns' five players are all playing first in passing at this stage, fans saw the Suns' beautiful five-man passing coordination...... Passed around, and finally the ball reached Dio's hand, and Dio missed the mid-range jumper in the open position!

Kwame Brown tried his best to shoot the ball out when O'Neal was stuck in position, and Maddie received the ball and immediately passed it to Liu Mang, who was already running towards the front court, and Liu Mang counterattacked and rushed into the inside to score two points.

Liu Mang has 26 points!

And the score was 111-106, taking a five-point lead!

As a head coach for the first time, although Gentry has a lineup that allows him to use any of his imagination, he also absorbs D'Antoni's running and bombing, the Hawks' rhythm change strategy, and the Spurs' turtle speed offense, but the rookie coach is easy to panic, and the substitution in the fourth minute of the fourth quarter buried the amazing performance played by the Suns in the first half!

After taking a 5-point lead, Liu Mang was not in a hurry, mainly to make fouls, the number of fouls of the Suns has arrived, there is no Laga Bell, it is Calderon who defends Liu Mang, Calderon can only post Liu Mang three points, Liu Mang just rushes to the inside, O'Neal is moving slowly now, and the opponent is bound to let others help defend.

The Suns' lineup can barely block three points, but only Josh Smith and O'Neal can defend it!

The Hawks' efficiency is back to being as hot as in the second half of the third quarter, and in turn, the Hawks can still limit the Suns' offense, and O'Neal can't beat Kwame Brown, although he can contain Kwame Brown under the basket, but he can only do that.

The Hawks defended the same as the Suns, blocking three-pointers and baskets, forcing the Suns to make a plethora of mid-range jumpers.

Although the Suns played a wave of offense after the official timeout in the final quarter, when Coach Gentry made a substitution error three minutes before the official timeout, the Hawks had already taken an 11-point lead of 119-108, and the Suns only scored 8 points for more than two minutes, and the Hawks scored 4 points in these two minutes, and the difference was narrowed to 7 points by the Suns, but after the Hawks adjusted, they did not let the Suns go further and maintained a lead of nearly 10 points.

When there were only 37 seconds left in the game, Liu Mang burst into the interior and caused a foul on Tim Thomas, who assisted the defense, the Suns made substitutions, replacing Nash, Josh Smith, and O'Neal, announcing their surrender!

At 131-122, the Hawks already led by 9 points, and Liu Mang made two free throws with only 37 seconds left, which was basically a certainty.

The guy who can still turn the tables at such a point difference at this time, on the opposite side, the Suns are not hopeful and replace the main team to announce their surrender.

When he only got 3 free throws in the first three quarters, counting these two free throws, Liu Mang made 12 free throws in a single quarter......

normal shooting, because Liu Mang was the one who was blocked the most, Liu Mang only shot 3 of 7 in the fourth quarter......

Hit both penalties!

In the fourth quarter, 10 of 12 free throws, 1 of 3 three-pointers, and 2 of 4 throws, Liu Mang scored 17 points in a single quarter, more than the first three quarters combined!

Whether Liu Mang made free throws or hit a normal shot, the boos on the scene never stopped.

The Suns can't afford to fight back, it's all because of Liu Mang's killing!

Facing the Suns, who were as violent as a storm on the offensive end, the Hawks rode the wind and waves, relying on the fact that the opponent had no defensive system, and used offense to kill the opponent!

In the end, relying on Liu Mang's 17 points in the last quarter, the Hawks narrowly defeated the Suns 133-125 away, improving their record to 18-9!

33 points, 6 rebounds and 13 assists, Liu Mang used the Suns' defensive system to be completely empty, create a threat in the last quarter, and helped his teammates send a lot of good balls, getting 6 assists in a single quarter, following 38 points in a single quarter in the third quarter, the Hawks scored 38 points again in the fourth quarter!

scored 76 points in the half, which was as big as the Bulls' outside shooting when they were ironed......

The game was won, and Liu Mang was very happy.

However, there are still some troublesome things that Liu Mang needs to think about how to solve, such as how to strengthen how to defend the opponent as a whole after being able to predict the opponent's high position and respond to the player's pass.

This can only be achieved by gaining experience when playing against those high-ranking strategists.

Just when Liu Mang was hurting about this matter, something even more painful came......
