The older generation of stars who entered the league in the 90s is getting older, and the stars of the new generation have begun to enter the room.

Those stars in the early and mid-90s, in addition to Duncan, Garnett, Kobe, Iverson, Nash, Maddy, Jermaine O'Neal and others are still at their peak, O'Neal, Rasheed Wallace, Kidd, Webb and others have obviously declined, Kidd is okay, making up for his shortcomings without shooting, and continuing his state, while Anfernee Hardaway, Mourning, Damon Stoudemire and others have long faded out of the league's first-line stars.

The stars of the late 90s and the new century gradually stepped into the peak, Carter, Nowitzki, Francis, Brand, Artest and other stars in the late 90s began to shine, and the stars who entered the NBA in the new century have become the mainstay of the league under the leadership of Liu Mang, a leading figure.

Before the start of the preseason between the Hawks and the Grizzlies, there have been three preseason games, and Chris Bosh of the Pistons scored 41 points in the first preseason game, although it is a preseason game, but it is also an official game of the NBA, the Pistons are more inclined to offense this season than last season, and after a season of running-in, it is now completely over-the-top to Coach Philip Saunders' system.

As long as they don't meet the Hawks, the Pistons will play anyone.

Francis' SuperSonics continued last season's performance, with Francis scoring a triple-double in his first preseason game with 13 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists.

Ron Artest, who has not played for almost a season, has not experienced a significant decline in his state, scoring 26 points and 9 boards in the Pacers' first preseason game, and only scoring 4 points against the Clippers' powerful small forward Corey Margety, Margety played 23 minutes and shot 1 of 8, and it was difficult to shoot, Artest was still so tough defensively.

It's just that Artest didn't finish the game before he got into a fight with the team's general manager, Larry Bird, on the sidelines.

The specific reason for this was not explained by the Pacers, which gave the outside world a lot of speculation.

In the summer, the Pacers tried to trade Artest, but no team made a move, and they all wanted to see how Artest played in the new season.

Young players have reached a blowout period of great improvement in strength, and the first opponent Liu Mang encountered in the new season is the same.

"Pau Gasol, Ability Rating 89, Offense 89, Defense 84, Three-Point 60, Shooting 85, Layup 92, Passing 83, Speed 80, Power 86......"

is a very comprehensive core power forward, and it is no problem to be the tactical core of the championship team, and he can shoot, play singles in the low post, and pass the ball.

However, the lack of tackling ability is Gasol's shortcoming, that is, he can only become a core second-in-command.

The core style of play is only the second master, and it is very difficult to become a member of the championship team.

Liu Mang looked at Gasol in front of him and sighed for Gasol's future.

Originally, in the original time and space, Gasol only needed to survive until 07 years to be able to join forces with Kobe Bryant and win the championship, not to mention the best team that had no chance with Gasol in the previous years, and they all relied on good results to get their hands.

"Ace, this is Cuarón, who entered the NBA a year later than us, you and he should know each other." Gasol introduces Liu Mang to his new teammate Caron Butler.

"Caron and I are old friends." Liu Mang went up and hugged Butler.

Butler was happy now and hugged Liu Mang.

"Caron Butler, 84 Rating of Ability, 88 Offense, 65 ...... Defense"

Liu Mang looked at Butler's ability evaluation, and the defense was really ...... Nash and Jason Terry are serious on the defensive end, but Butler is completely defenseless.

Butler and Liu Mang are not in the same position, so there are no grievances, gentlemen's friends.

Butler is now finally on a team that has him as a core perimeter and is ready to forget about the ups and downs of the past and play well.

The Rockets opted for a trade due to the overlapping positions of Caron Butler and Richard Jefferson, and the trader was of course Caron Butler, who was traded for Caron Butler and the Grizzlies and got Sean Battier.

The Rockets have a clear goal, since the center is still young, they will start from the front, Battier and Richard Jefferson form a defensive combination of the forward line, which is quite strong, even if Butler is willing to play point guard, the Rockets do not want a Caron Butler who has almost no defense, and taking Butler from the Lakers is purely for more rewards, no, they traded Battier to it.

Moreover, not only defense, but also scoring, Caron Butler is not as strong as Richard Jefferson, who is a perennial 20+ first-line scorer.

Coupled with the point guard combination of Chaki Atkins and Sula, the center has Bynum to cultivate, except for the big forward is really miserable, the Rockets have maintained a certain combat effectiveness to maintain the popularity of Yao Ming.

Yao Ming's words of thanks, as well as the empty check that he would like to play for the Rockets in the future, made many Chinese fans who have always liked nostalgia believe it.

After the Grizzlies got Eddie Jones in the summer, they also lost patience with Battier, who was drafted with the No. 6 pick that year in order to form a duo with Gasol, but Battier did not have the mentality and strength to become the core at all, and he could only play as a substitute since the second year.

In order to make room to sign Antoine Walker, the Heat almost gave Eddie Jones to the Grizzlies in a sign-and-trade Jason Williams trade.

Now the Grizzlies have a starting combination of Damon Stoudemire, Eddie Jones, Butler, Gasol, and Lorenzen White, and at first glance, it really looks like that.

After saying hello to Gasol and Butler, Liu Mang returned to his side of the bench and waited for the first preseason game of the new season to begin.

This year, the Eagles have six opponents in seven preseason games, and the lucky or unfortunate thing is that the Eagles still have no chance to participate in this season's Chinese game.

Originally, the Rockets and the Lakers played the China game last year, and this year it should be the Hawks' turn, but the drug combination was born, Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi joined hands, and the league once again arranged for them to play the preseason, as for the Hawks and the Lakers, they are the two highlights arranged by the league, and they will not be placed in the preseason, and the Lakers and Warriors will go to Shanghai and Beijing to play the China game.

Today's starting lineup from the Hawks is Liu Mang, Iguodala, Korver, Josh Smith, and Kwame Brown.

Jason Terry, Maddy, Rashid Wallace, and Prince are all benches in this game and may go up to play for a while, but these experienced veterans don't need to play too long in the preseason, just look for shots and combinations, etc., the main thing is for the young players to start trying to take on more tasks.

Before the start of the game, Liu Mang looked at his system space, counting the training in August and early September, plus the training camp, more than two months of training time, the previous replenishment of physical fitness medicine can only be 39, and there are 101 primary injury medicine.

300,000 superstar values, more than 56.79 million rogue values...... What a beautiful number, get together to one million, and you can draw a high-level lottery again, you can have a star card or something now, but without Liu Mang, you won't deliberately draw it, and the high-level superstar value lottery can improve yourself even more.

However, the standing medicine is the most important, physical fitness and injuries, the second year of defending the title, can not be delayed by these, Liu Mang can only endure the pain and continue to replenish the standing medicine.

"System boss, use 300 superstar value draws."

"Ding...... The host uses 300 primary superstar draws, consuming 30,000 superstar ......"

"Ding...... Congratulations to the host for obtaining 342 Stamina Elixirs, 193 Primary Injury Elixirs, and 212 Skill Upgrade Cards. ”

381 physical energy potions, 294 primary injury potions, and 233 skill upgrade cards, the standing potions were replenished, Liu Mang turned off the system panel, walked to the technical table, and prepared to start the first game of the new season.

Although it was a preseason, Liu Mang was also very excited, the first game after becoming a superstar!

And Liu Mang wants to see the progress of this group of young teammates!

……

As Liu Mang sprinkled magnesium powder into the air, detonating the enthusiasm of the long-awaited fans, the Eagles' first preseason game was about to begin.

Although it was only a preseason game, the Hawks' home stadium was sold out!

After two consecutive championships, Hawks fans want to see the emergence of a fourth dynasty in NBA history and break the monopoly of the Lakers, Celtics, and Bulls!

Liu Mang brought Iguodala, Korver, Josh Smith and Kwame Brown on the court.

On the Grizzlies' side, it can almost be said that it is a new lineup that needs to be re-run-in, so the main team poured out, and the lineup of Damon Stoudemire, Eddie Jones, who resembles Kobe, Caron Butler, sister-in-law Gasol, and Lorenzen White, the No. 7 pick of the 96 golden generation, came on.

01 The best power forwards and centers of the generation walk to the center circle and are ready to jump the ball.

Gasol and Kwame Brown stand in the center circle, there is no contradiction between the two, Gasol's gentle personality is one of the few interior players in the 01 class who did not mock Kwame Brown before Kwame Brown's career, the two are now in the league status, and the relationship is not bad, not as bad as Chandler, Eddie Curry, Haywood and Kwame Brown.

The referee came to the center circle, blew the whistle for the start of the game, and threw the ball into the air.

Although Kwame Brown has increased his weight to 122 kilograms, it has not affected his speed and bounce, and his physical talent is so good that he still maintains the speed of the explosion and wins the jump ball from Gasol's head.

After Liu Mang received the serve, he was not in a hurry, and slowly advanced towards the front court, ready to settle down and play a single.

The little flying squirrel Stoudemire defended Liu Mang, trying to steal Liu Mang by virtue of his short stature and good flexibility, Liu Mang went to the front court and leaned sideways, easily separated Damon Stoudemire with his right arm, and replaced it with a left-handed dribble, Damon Stoudemire has no chance to steal, and the player who can dribble with his left hand has a very low probability of being directly stolen, which does not match the opponent's stealing habits.

Seeing that his teammates had fallen into a good position, Liu Mang rushed directly to the left!

Damon Stoudemire can't stop it if he wants to! was directly run over by Liu Mang!

It's a great feeling to run over your opponent and break through!

Liu Mang knocked Damon Stoudemire away and rushed inside, and rushed directly towards Lorenzen White under the basket, ready to start the game ruthlessly and show off his physical fitness.

At this moment, Liu Mang saw someone on the right side of the basket cut in, and Kwame Brown under the basket had withdrawn from the bottom line, Liu Mang immediately threw the ball into the air, and a guy wearing the No. 6 jersey rose into the air, and when Lorenzen White was ready to defend Liu Mang's basket, player No. 6 smashed the ball into the basket through Lorenzen White!

Josh Smith's opening with an empty dunk!

The fans at the scene originally thought that Liu Mang was going to rush in to dunk, and they were worried that Lorenzen White would block Liu Mang and not be able to see the scene, but they didn't expect Josh Smith and Liu Mang to complete the empty connection, and the cheers at the scene burst into cheers.

This anti-running consciousness, Liu Mang subconsciously passed the ball out, the key is, how did Josh Smith get rid of Gasol? Although Gasol is not a defensive gate, and his defense is soft, mainly because his movements are too clean, his defense is definitely not bad, and his defensive efficiency ranks among the top few in the big forward.

When I turned my head, Iguodala was blocking Gasol!

These two sophomores actually use reverse thinking!

The opponent will definitely prevent Josh Smith from blocking and dismantling Iguodala, but I didn't expect Iguodala to block and dismantle Josh Smith and run back!
