One horizontal, one vertical, one vertical, and the last one......

Looking at the calligraphy that is still ugly, Liu Mang doesn't care, the main thing is to adjust the inner pressure and calm the heart.

Liu Mang has always admired those compatriots who have patiently practiced calligraphy since childhood, and it is not easy to write a good hand.

It is said that words are like people, and that "person" is not about whether a person is excellent or not, but whether he has the patience and perseverance to do something.

A person who writes well may be a person who is scheming, conspiring, and spending years doing one thing, and needs to be patient.

A person who is also good at a word may also be a person who is far-sighted and silently contributes to the great affairs of the country, and patience is also required.

Patience was easier to cultivate in ancient times, because there were no leisure activities at that time, and the pace of life was slow, but in modern times, it is much more difficult.

However, what makes Liu Mang embarrassed is that almost at the same time, Dinah Lori, who started to practice calligraphy at the same time, and Dinah Lori, who was in elementary school, was stunned to rely on more spare time to practice more decently than Liu Mang!

Dina practiced calligraphy, not only Liu Mang supported it, but Levia and even the school teachers supported it, because in their eyes, this is art.

I can't understand these Americans anymore, and Liu Mang didn't dig deeper.

Yes, recently, Liu Mang has begun to cultivate himself.

Half a month ago, I went to the mall to buy brush ink, which was quite expensive, and whenever I was irritable, I practiced calligraphy at home.

The most important thing is to be happy! No matter how difficult life is, there is nothing that cannot be solved with a bowl of noodles.

When Liu Mang was practicing calligraphy, Alexia came to cook a bowl of noodles for Liu Mang.

It seems that recently several girls in the family have practiced Chinese from simple dialogues, and have begun to advance to watching Chinese TV series and movies to learn Chinese.

In these years, Chinese TV series, the best, or the Hong Kong dramas and Hong Kong movies that have just returned to the country for a few years are the best, and on the glorious tail of Hong Kong dramas, several girls spent money to find people who traveled to China to help bring back the DVDs, all of which are Hong Kong dramas, and the movies are also Hong Kong movies, and then Alexia learned something.

For example, the boiled bowl noodles in the Ouchi Secret Agent Zero Zero Dog......

It's just that Liu Mang didn't understand the amorous feelings, and he also disliked not putting chili peppers, and almost made Alexia so angry that a bowl of noodles was directly buckled on Liu Mang's head.

But Liu Mang was still very happy to eat, and Alexia saw that Liu Mang was happy to eat, and half of her anger disappeared......

After eating the noodles, after Alexia took the bowl away, Liu Mang came to the little Lori who was still concentrating on practicing calligraphy, and saw the two Chinese characters "Liu Mang" on the paper, which were really well written! At least better than Liu Mang, who feels like he has been writing Chinese characters for 20 years......

Liu Mang thought of something to write a sentence, and Dina specialized in practicing the names of the four people in the family, otherwise it would be impossible to write better than Liu Mang, mainly because the little Lori didn't have so many ideas, so she concentrated on practicing these names.

The life of a professional athlete, as Yao Ming said, is quite boring, and most of the time there is nothing else to do except train.

Therefore, playing games has become the favorite entertainment activity of many professional athletes.

For example, Gordon Hayward, who has participated in the American imperialist college students' masturbation competition, has such a beautiful girlfriend who doesn't practice well and masturbates every day.

There is also Yao Ming, who let Howard get the nickname of Warcraft in China, Yao Ming's living habits are standard Chinese living habits, similar to Liu Mang, don't go out to fool around, fight Warcraft at home if you have nothing to do, plus every time he meets Howard, Howard beats him to the point where he doesn't want it, so the domestic commentator gave Howard a nickname for Warcraft, which seems domineering, but in fact it was not a compliment at first.

Of course, NBA players like Yao Ming and Hayward who don't go to nightclubs to play games at home are usually from a good family like Hayward, or overseas players like Yao Ming and Nowitzki, who are usually white.

Black people don't like to go to waste, or Kobe Bryant trains himself to death all day long, and doesn't even go to his teammates' parties, or Hill, who has a rich family.

People who often love to go to the waves are usually from a bad family when they were young, and they want to enjoy more when they are rich, and this kind of thing is understandable.

Liu Mang prefers to play games, but NBA players are not suitable for playing online games that require kryptonite, it takes too long, so CS, Dota, and LOL will be so popular among NBA players, and now only CS, Liu Mang is indeed a dish, and was abused by Jason Terry and Raheem, Dota and LOL don't know when they will come out, he even wants to take care of a group of people to help him make this game, but he has no money, and he has to develop that kind of game this year, It is several times more difficult than the various game engines in the future, and it can almost be described as infinity times, and without the first appearance of the game engine of Warcraft, the Dota-like game is basically impossible to complete.

Even if Liu Mang has money, he doesn't plan to get this, this thing is just a idea, any game company can imitate it, and there is no illegality, or wait for this type of game like Warcraft to appear first, and then invest in one or creative shares or something, saving money and convenient.

So Liu Mang thought of practicing calligraphy, not to mention how good it was to practice, just pass the time.

Practicing calligraphy is really a hone of the mind, at least when you rest after training at home, you can calm down your heart and better devote yourself to training.

After losing to the Bulls yesterday, Coach Kruger, who had been nervously prohibiting the team from participating in any off-team activities, let go of the reins and let the players go to nightclubs for a night, although Liu Mang did not go, he learned that the team is now going to enter a new state and start the playoff mode!

So this morning, when Liu Mang got up at six o'clock to train, he was particularly motivated, and when he practiced calligraphy, he felt good because he was in a good mood, although his writing was still ugly......

At noon, I had lunch with the three girls at home, of course, this is going to be the critical juncture of the playoffs, and Liu Mang does not follow the girls to eat pizza or fried steak at home, but continues to eat grass.

Speaking of which, although there are disadvantages to the tight schedule in February and March, there are also advantages, that is, the Hawks have an excellent individual fat rate, Liu Mang averaged 24 points per game in the first 17 games in March, and his personal season average points per game have increased to 19.1 points, plus 3.3 rebounds and 6.1 assists.

Raheem played fewer games in March, and his season stats were still only 18.6 points per game, but he rebounded very well, and he has been rebounding very well this season, mainly because the team has more scorers, except when he needs to be hard to chisel, he will cut or catch the ball to score, most of the time he is mainly responsible for defense and rebounding, and he has also entered his prime, his average rebounds per game reached 12.3, plus 2.9 assists.

Jason Terry is the team's leading scorer, averaging 23 points and 4.1 assists per game.

All three are in good shape.

The Hawks' record has also stabilized, with the best place to finish eighth in the East, rather than sixth or seventh, which has a slight chance of being hit.

The Detroit Pistons are now at 46-28 and are eight games away from finishing the season.

Second is the New Jersey Nets, who are 44-29 and nine games away from finishing the season.

The third is the Pacers, who are 42-32 and eight games away from finishing the season.

Fourth is the New Orleans Hornets in the same division as the Hawks, with 40 wins and 32 losses, with ten games to go to finish the season.

Fifth is Iverson's 76ers, 41-32, with a better record than the Hornets, but only fifth.

The sixth- and seventh-place Celtics and Bucks both have 39 wins.

The Magic, who are behind the Hawks, have not lost their playoff hopes, with 36 wins and 38 losses, and the Hawks still can't relax.

And the Hawks' next opponent, the Knicks, is terrible, already 33-40, whether they can get the top ten picks is a problem, they did play a little well, and their record in February and March is not bad compared with the Hawks, which is indeed very outstanding.

But it's a little late to play the state, and at this time, you can't impact the playoffs, and even if you lose the rest of the games, there is no possibility of the top five picks.

On the Western side, the Kings and Spurs are still fighting for the first place in the league, with the Spurs winning 54 and the Kings winning 53.

The Mavericks are the third team in the league to break 50 wins, and they happen to be 50-23 right now.

The Timberwolves are 43-30, relying on the first place in the division, and the Hornets are firmly in fourth place in the West, the Lakers are 44-29 and ranked fifth in the West, and the Trail Blazers have the same record as the Lakers, but they were swept by the Lakers in the regular season and ranked sixth, and the Jazz are 41-33 and ranked seventh.

The battle for the eighth spot in the West has been fierce, with the Rockets having a slight advantage and already 39-34 compared to the Suns with 37-36.

After ninth place in the West, no other team has a playoff chance.

Except for the Hawks' opponent Knicks, who want to save face, the other teams that don't have a chance to make the playoffs have all begun to collectively rot and strive for better picks, after all, it is the biggest draft year in the legendary seven years, and major media are predicting that this year's draft year may become a draft year with several superstars like the 84 generation or the 96 generation.

In the '84 and '96 editions, stars like Kobe, Kevin Wesley, Stockton, Peja, and Nash were available on the edge of the lottery zone, so all non-playoff teams wanted to improve their picks as much as possible, and even teams that might not make the playoffs were looking forward to getting the top three picks like the Rockets.

And the teams that are already impacting the playoffs can only continue to rush hard, and there is no turning back.

After lunch, Liu Mang continued to practice mid-range shooting in the afternoon, slept well at night, and the next morning, drove to the airport to meet his teammates and head to New York, the richest city in the world where the last opponent in March, the Knicks, is located!

……

……

Nearly a two-hour flight, Liu Mang followed the Eagles to New York and stayed at the Hilton Hotel in Manhattan.

The traffic in New York is really enough, more exaggerated than Los Angeles, the Eagles who are used to staying in Atlanta are really not used to it, get off the plane at LaGuardia Airport in Queens, and get off the plane to the Hilton Hotel in Manhattan, which is only 8 miles, that is, about 12 kilometers by car, it took more than an hour, and when I arrived at the hotel, it was already more than one o'clock in the afternoon.

Just arrived at the room to put things away, Liu Mang was ready to watch TV and rest, this New York is simply not a place for people to stay, compared to the imperial capital in China, although it seems not so congested, but Beijing is blocked because there are too many big yards in Beijing, New York is really a traffic jam, inexplicably blocked, whether it is driving or taking a car is very irritating.

But as soon as Liu Mang sat down on the sofa, Raheem and Jason Terry arrived with two bodyguards, Barnes and Boozer.

"Hurry up, Ace, let's go! It's almost too late! Rahim excitedly pulled Liu Mang away.

"Wait, it's too late, hey, wait until I put my shoes on! ……”

……

The subway is a good thing, even if it is jammed like New York and the imperial capital of China, at least the subway will not be congested.

There is a subway station not far from the Hilton Hotel, the Eagles and the Eagles with two bodyguards, all the way unimpeded, except for those who secretly take pictures, people dare not approach, Barnes is okay, it looks like a little ruffian, Boozer's face looks like a Middle East, the lethality is huge, if you don't know that he is an Eagles player, maybe someone will call the police.

Ten minutes later, the five Eagles arrived at Pennsylvania Station, where Madison Square Garden is located.

Liu Mang has always been curious about why the subway station under the ground of Madison Square Garden, a landmark building in New York, is called Pennsylvania Station, and he has always wanted to inquire, but this time he still didn't have a chance to inquire, and after arriving at the station, he was carried by Jason Terry and Rahim to Madison Square Garden.

If it weren't for the fact that there were so many people around, and maybe the islanders, he almost screamed out of Jamai.

What did these guys do when they "kidnapped" him to Madison Square Garden?

Do you want to "join the enemy", give him to the Knicks, and sell his friends for glory?

But when he arrived at the ticket gate and saw the huge billboard, Liu Mang finally knew what was going on!

The official information is 18 years old and less than 19 years old, but people think it must be a large poster of the future thirty-year-old man who "lied about his age", McDonald's All-Star Game!

An exhibition tournament that gathers all the physical fitness men among high school students in the United States!

The McDonald's All-Star Game began to fall after not allowing high school students to participate in the draft in the future, but until then, the event had been a super-hot event before the draft.

Garnett, for example, rose to fame in the 1995 McDonald's All-Star Game and was drafted by the Timberwolves with the fifth pick.

Maddie also made a name for himself by beating Lamar Odom in this event.

In addition to these who directly became famous in the NBA after playing the game and were selected by the high pick, there are also many high school students who have been favored by NCAA elite schools through this event, such as O'Neal, Webb, Stackhouse, etc., Jacqui Vaughn, the backup point guard of the Hawks last season and the starting point guard of the current Magic team, is the McDonald's All-Star MVP in 1993.

The real popularity of this event is due to the fact that the venue was moved from Washington to Madison Square Garden, the mecca of basketball.

Regardless of the Knicks' record, Madison Square Garden will always be the easiest place to make stars.

This McDonald's All-Star Game may be the most watched game since its inception, reaching the pinnacle of the event! Because they invited LeBron James to attend.

However, as the so-called prosperity must decline, from this session, the next session is not as good as the one, and after the last one in 2010, it was announced that the event would be stopped, and McDonald's became a Golden Arch after a few years......

Raheem took out 5 sideline tickets, and a group of five entered the stadium in advance from the VIP channel.

Looking at the ticket gate that became crowded because of a high school student, and looking at the courtside ticket with a ticket price of 2,300 US dollars, Liu Mang felt incredible! This LeBron James is so popular before he enters the NBA?

Liu Mang knew that James High School was very popular, but he didn't expect it to be so popular!
