Liu Mang is personally ready for the start of the season, and the team has also prepared for the start of the new season as much as possible, waiting to use the preseason to run in tactics.

On October 8, the Hawks arrived in Miami to start the first game of the season, the first game of the preseason, and tomorrow at 7 p.m., they will take on the Heat on the road.

This year, the NBA started the China game plan, for Liu Mang's Hawks, very lucky, because they were not arranged to play in China this season, the first China game is a game between the Rockets and the Lakers, Wang Zhizhi renewed his contract with the Lakers for 1 year and 3.9 million, the Lakers in order to maintain flexible salary space, just past summer, signed a lot of contracts are one or two years, waiting for the opportunity to catch big fish at any time, Wang Zhizhi renewed the contract with the Lakers, the Rockets have Yao Ming, and they are in the West together, Let's go to the imperial capital and the magic capital in China to play two preseason games.

For Liu Mang, it is definitely a good thing for the team to have no China game, and it will not consume unnecessary physical energy, but it is a pity that he can't play two NBA games in China to show the fans.

But it's not a big deal to be able to get their turn next season.

The preseason for the Hawks, from the 9th to the 23rd, is a total of seven games, and this year's regular season, like the regular season, starts a few days early, starting on October 27.

The preseason games of the Hawks and Heat received a lot of attention.

The Heat are seen as the only team in the East that can truly pose a threat to the Hawks.

The Pacers may be considered to be good, they are already strong, and they have joined Stephen Czech tons, but the head coach of the Pacers, Carlisle, was overwhelmed by Coach Kruger, and entered the NBA in the same year, the best coach was robbed by Coach Kruger, and he was directly killed by Coach Kruger twice in the playoffs, and not many people think that the Pacers can pose a threat to the Hawks, even if it is the roster that the Hawks are now regrouping.

On the Nets' side, they were swept by the Hawks last season, although Ratliffe was added, but it was not so easy to threaten the Hawks, Liu Mang's performance in the Olympics was obviously better than last season, and whether Kidd could cooperate well with a defensive center like Ratliffe is a big problem, if the interior line doesn't play a role, it depends on Kidd and Carter, and without Richard Jefferson, it is a big problem to deal with the Hawks' strong outside group.

The Heat team is different, Wade and Eddie Jones form a guard line, strong defense, one can break through and one can shoot, and O'Neal on the inside, mainly O'Neal, O'Neal still has Duncan as an opponent in the West, and in the East, no one on the inside can compete with him.

……

After arriving at the hotel in Miami, Liu Mang replenished the physical strength potion, of course, there is a more important reason, it is to upgrade some skills.

"Speed 94, Bounce 92, Strength 81, Endurance 94.

73 left-handed three-pointers, 70 mid-range shots, and 87 layups.

89 right-handed three-pointers, 87 mid-range shots, and 92 layups.

Comprehensive Capability Evaluation 90. ”

Looking at his ability evaluation, he stuck on 89 for three points, and he couldn't become the second player to break through 90 three-pointers among the active players, just like James after the Olympics, not long after training with Liu Mang, the ability evaluation was already 89, but he couldn't break through to 90 for a while.

Liu Mang felt that he could only take his time, maybe when he was playing the game, he would break through when he felt like he was throwing, and finding a better way to shoot three-pointers was also a kind of three-point ability, such as Curry's ultra-fast pushing, and this kind of thing is difficult to find a feeling in training.

However, Liu Mang practiced a lot of layups in addition to practicing three points, and the left and right hand shots were not balanced at all, but the layups became more and more balanced, and the effect of hard training was obvious.

With the increase in age, gradually approaching the physiological peak of twenty-four or five years old to twenty-seven or eighteen, Liu Mang's strength slowly improved to 81 in training.

After learning high-level techniques with Kobe Bryant and spending 50,000 superstar values to learn quickly, this aspect of singles ability is available.

There are still 100,000 superstar values left, and when I was training with Maddy, Kobe, James, and Iguodala in September and the training camp, the hundreds of individual energy potions were almost used, Liu Mang spent 50,000 superstar values, supplementing the commonly used potions is one thing, and more importantly, several skills that are not at the full level are upgraded.

High Back Skill Level 5: When playing singles with a high back, if you deceive the opponent's defense and turn to cut in, your speed will be +5 in two seconds, and if you deceive the opponent's defense to shoot, your mid-range shooting ability will be +5.

The effect is outstanding, it is very useful when playing singles, Liu Mang originally had 87 in the middle of the shot, and he could reach 92 points at once.

Fancy dunk level 5: full-level special effect, when the counterattack dunk is unguarded, the bounce, waist and abdominal strength, back strength, and flexibility are greatly improved, and the team's morale is greatly improved when the wonderful dunk is completed.

Rock Solid Level 5: Fighting for defensive rebounds has a 50 percent chance of perfectly blocking opponents, and fighting for offensive rebounds has a 25 percent chance of getting a perfect card for the main opponent.

Now that the team is likely to focus on defensive counter-attacks, it has become important to defend defensive rebounding advances, and with Iguodala and Maddy, Jason Terry, and Calderon, who may be able to make a difference, it is necessary for Liu Mang to help his teammates stay in position to prevent opponents from attacking offensive rebounds.

The hot pot feast has also been upgraded to level 5, and if he really starts a small lineup, Liu Mang feels that his arm span advantage is still very useful.

It's a pity that the stamina fruit obtained when defeating the OK combination in the previous King's Landing first phase mission only increased by 4 stamina, and now it is almost activated, so I can only wait for the second phase of King's Landing's mission, but it is still waiting to be opened.

After leveling up these skills, there are 27 skill upgrade cards left, as well as 272 physical energy potions and 341 primary injury and illness potions, as well as 50,000 superstar points.

In addition to this, there is also an intermediate superstar value draw.

At the beginning of the new season, he can still be so tyrant, all by winning the championship.

This summer, we can make great progress because of a bunch of "resources".

……

"Bang ......"

Liu Mang slapped the table in front of Wade and asked, "Dwyan, why didn't you train with LeBron in the summer?" ”

When Wade saw the menacing Liu Mang, he already knew that this guy had dinner clearly, it was too much!

"This guy is fierce to me again! But I also have the boss! ”

Wade wanted to find O'Neal, but when he saw Maddie next to Liu Mang, the coffee position was no smaller than the current O'Neal, and behind Liu Mang there was a strong player from the same company Iguodala, Rashid Wallace, who looked scary as soon as he sat down, and Kwame Brown, who used to be a parallel but is now paralyzed, and there is also a rough-looking rookie behind Maddie...... It seems that if you call the eldest brother, the eldest brother will be killed!

What a great number of people! Wade was ruthless in his heart, big deal...... Treat them to a meal to cool off...... People who don't pick the door so hard will not be beaten so easily.

"Ace, our manager took us to special training, you know Shaq's weight, Pat is very dissatisfied, so after the Olympics, I have been training in the team, I also want to train with Tracy, Andre, LeBron, Kobe and Ace, but no way, I have a treat today!" Wade said very sincerely.

"You've been sent to devil training by Pat Rililah again? You're pathetic. Liu Mang sympathized with Wade for a few seconds, it was pitiful to have a general manager like Pat Riley who used players inappropriately, and then immediately called the waiter to order and ordered a bunch of expensive things.

Looking at Liu Mang's selection of expensive candidates, Wade didn't care too much, he was very different from a certain champion of the same year and the boss of the players in the company in front of him, and he would cut his salary by 10 million in the future......

However, Liu Mang's side is full of sympathy for Wade, but there is one point, Wade is not trained like this, and his progress is not so fast, there is a clear gap between his talent and James, although James has also practiced hard, but it is definitely not as good as Wade was trained by Pat Riley, Pat Riley's devil training, before the finals, the magic and Abdul-Jabbar were abolished.

Before the start of the sophomore season, Wade had an 89 ability rating, which is about the same as James, and maybe even a little stronger, which is inseparable from Pat Riley's devilish training.

But on O'Neill's side, Liu Mang felt really miserable, how miserable it was, and he didn't even bother to move when he came out for dinner, originally Wade called O'Neill to come out together.

Liu Mang mourned for Wade and O'Neill for a while, and then continued to choose expensive food, eating and eating, and saw Maddie looking at Wade from time to time, squinting with a hint of brightness in his eyes.

Mcgrady...... Interested in Wade?

Poor fellow......

Wade looked at the Eagles one by one, and he didn't care too much, he was the one who promised Liu Mang to train together at the beginning, but he missed the appointment.

But while eating, Wade suddenly felt a sympathetic gaze, which flashed away, and he didn't know where it came from, he thought that it was probably the sympathetic gaze that the people around him knew about him being "blackmailed......

After Wade's invited dinner, Rashid Wallace took Kwame Brown to play, it's October, and the south coast still has the afterglow of summer, if you don't go out to wave, the regular season has begun, and there will be no chance to wave.

Liu Mang and Maddie took Iguodala and Josh Smith, two rookies, back to the hotel, and on the way Liu Mang asked Maddie, "Tracy, have you found an interesting opponent again?" ”

"Ace, do you see that?" Maddie smiled, he could also guess that he might be able to see his thoughts, and Liu Mang would be able to see it.

"Dwyane is still a second-grade kid...... Liu Mang said with a smile.

"He's older than you, better than you were in second grade." Maddy was very interested in James and Wade in his rookie year last season, and also scored eight three-pointers in a row on James's head, when he played Wade, the team was far inferior to the Heat, there was nothing to play, he didn't win against Wade in a game, now it's different, he wants to take revenge on Wade.

However, when these words reached Liu Mang's ears, they were so annoying! Liu Mang said unhappily: "Tracy, don't be so direct, I'm also quite good in the second grade." ”

However, the 03 generation has good talent, Liu Mang is sure, Wade already has teammates who can make a difference in the playoffs, and maybe he will break through the 90 ability evaluation earlier than James and become a top star, Liu Mang is full of expectations.

……

By the evening of the next day, the Eagles were at the American Airlines Center for the first game of the preseason.

In the first game or the first two games of the preseason, teams generally try to give it their all and see what is wrong with the team, especially a team like the Eagles.

The later games are all used to combat running tactics, training rookies or role players, and the role of the preseason is probably these.

The arrangement of the coaching staff before the game is obviously towards the goal of winning, several big inside lines are very nervous now, Rasheed Wallace, Kwame Brown, Muhammad, the inside line has to rely on them to support it, especially for Kwame Brown, the pressure is not too great! But he's also very scrappy now, and the coaching staff made it clear that the performance in the preseason, mainly in the first two games of the preseason, is the key to whether he can sit in the starting position in the regular season.

Muhammad can step up to the starting position at any time, and Kwame Brown will have to rely on his own performance if he wants to secure his starting position.

Liu Mang also hopes that the team will have this kind of healthy competition, and he is very satisfied to see Kwame Brown's fighting spirit.

Kwame Brown's personality is the most headache for the team, his talent is really good, he has gained almost 7 kilograms this year, and his weight has reached 117 kilograms, but the speed and bounce have basically not changed, and he has gained 13 kilograms in two summers, and he can still maintain the speed and bounce in the Wizards period, and the talent has nothing to say.

But this guy's personality is relatively weak, and he needs to be pressured, but he can't be put too much pressure on, and he can't scold him if he doesn't understand it, otherwise it will become similar to the wizard period.

He must slowly develop his self-confidence, and last season's Finals against O'Neal played 12+8 data, which gave him a very good confidence boost, so the Hawks management sent Ratliff away, just to correct Kwame Brown.

But if he straightens up, he can't easily sit in the starting position, and he must continue to put pressure on him, and the team's bench has a Mohammed who helped the team win 60+ games when he was a starter, which is the source of pressure on Kwame Brown.

Liu Mang thought of a few people because of the difficulty of cultivating Kwamei Brown, and couldn't help but think: "High school students are troublesome ......"

At around 6:40 p.m., Liu Mang led his teammates into the stadium at the American Airlines Center.

Wade has been waiting with his teammates, there is no appearance ceremony in the preseason, and seeing Liu Mang coming in, Wade is full of fighting spirit, but he ...... Do you feel cool for a wool vest? Wade didn't see any malice towards Liu Mang!
