977. The ugliest layup ever

Immovable as a mountain, this word is a good interpretation of Tim Duncan.

Once again, the jump ball was snatched from the head by Kwame Brown, and Duncan did not react and quickly retreated.

Liu Mang received the jump ball and immediately dribbled towards the front court.

Is this to speed up?

Ginobili wanted to retreat to the free-throw line defense, but Coach Popovich said at the team meeting that the Hawks' battle for Kings Mountain could be accelerated, and a way to suppress the rhythm had already been arranged.

Ginobili stopped retreating and came to the middle line to block Liu Mang's accelerated sprint.

Liu Mang met Ginobili and took a horizontal step to the left, continuing to advance in the middle of the midline.

After Ginobili was freed, he immediately chased after Maddie, who was running forward to the right side of the middle line, preventing Liu Mang from accelerating the sprint directly, and Ginobili's task was completed, and the next thing was handed over to Parker.

Parker came to the top arc when Ginobili went up to block Liu Mang, guarding the second level, Liu Mang's direct acceleration has been destroyed by Ginobili, and now the re-acceleration is less than a large sprint distance, and it is not so difficult for Parker to defend Liu Mang to break through.

Liu Mang passed through the middle line from the middle, and when he reached two steps away from the three-point line, watching Parker step on the free throw line, Liu Mang did not take his time like the previous two games, two steps across the three-point line, and broke through directly!

"Ding...... The strongest first step is triggered at level 5, and the host's speed is +5 within two seconds of breaking through this time......"

Liu Mang directly accelerated to the left to break through!

It's so fast!

After Parker entered the NBA, he only felt desperate for the speed of three people, the first was when he met Iverson in his rookie year, the second was TJ Ford of the Bucks, and Liu Mang in front of him was the third!

The speed of the explosion is terrifying!

Parker's speed is also very fast, but he still can't keep up with Liu Mang's acceleration breakthrough that soared to 99 speed evaluation two steps away!

However, Robert Horry's first line of defense came in time, and Parker's switch was also very fast, rushing towards Prince, and the Spurs' high-speed defensive rotation!

Liu Mang did not pass to Prince, but continued to rush towards the basket, and Horry saw that Liu Mang was rushing so fast, and his hands were crotch-guarded, ready to hit.

Just when the two were about to collide together, Liu Mang's speed seemed to be unstoppable, and the referee stuffed the whistle into his mouth and prepared to blow the whistle, suddenly, Liu Mang grabbed the ball, kicked his left foot on the ground, and bounced out to the right!

His own strength has increased to 87, coupled with the explosive power bonus of Wade's star card, Liu Mang is not afraid of the pressure of his knees and ankles, and the free throw line distance forcibly changes direction to throw Horry aside!

Liu Mang changed sharply and came to the free throw line one step, Duncan had already blocked it, and also blocked the space of Kwame Brown under Liu Mang's pass!

The Spurs did a good job of defending the breakaway shot, and Horry and Duncan blocked Liu Mang in the free throw line together!

However, after Liu Mang's right foot landed, his left foot made an awkward movement and twisted his body towards the right front, and took another step, the steps were quite weird, Huo Li saw Liu Mang raise his left foot, and thought that Liu Mang was going to jump and jump up, but Liu Mang was walking in Europe!

Liu Mang changed direction to the right side of the three-second zone with three slow steps, the action was extremely ugly, the distorted body, the ball was in his hand again, and when his left foot landed, he jumped directly, and threw the ball to the basket with a big loop throw on his side......

Spin and jump with my eyes closed......

Liu Mang's blind handful changed direction and broke through and hit the basket with a few blind throws, turned it upside down, and luckily fell into the basket!

Good luck guy!

Ginobili watched Liu Mang score the ball, but he thought that Liu Mang would find Maddie, and stuck to Maddie at the three-point line to not give Maddie a chance to receive the ball.

This kind of ball is in, and Liu Mang runs back after landing and makes a listening gesture.

The fans at the scene were originally amazed by Liu Mang's incredible soft touch, but when they saw Liu Mang's action, they immediately responded to Liu Mang, and the boos of the audience were given to Liu Mang.

The Spurs defended very well, but Liu Mang's posture, with his feet crossed, his left hand doing the action of separating Duncan, and the ugly action of grabbing the ball in the left waist and pulling the big loop to the right when his right hand changed from the right side to throw the ball in, it was not a defensive problem at all, it was a bad fate, and it was all thrown into the opponent.

This does not affect the confidence of the Spurs players, but rather makes them more confident, and they will shoot in this way when they have already driven the opponent to a corner.

Offense and defense transitioned, the Spurs pressed the rhythm, and Parker slowly advanced to the frontcourt.

Once in the frontcourt, Parker hoisted the ball to Duncan, and Liu Mang immediately joined Rasheed Wallace to pinch Duncan in the low post.

Duncan now stopped passing to Parker, who was empty, turned around himself, carried Liu Mang on his back, and forced a close-range shot against Rasheed Wallace's block......

Miss!

Kwame Brown beats Nesterovic to grab a defensive rebound!

If you can't score, you can't score, and the Spurs quickly retreat.

Liu Mang received the ball from Kwame Brown and continued to advance rapidly, and the Eagles' rhythm was driven by Liu Mang to become faster.

However, the Spurs did a good job defensively, and the Hawks came to the front court quickly and did not get a chance to play the fast break.

Liu Mang took two steps outside the three-point line, looked at Ginobili, and continued to accelerate the breakthrough!

Ginobili couldn't keep up with Liu Mang's breakthrough, but the Spurs already had experience in defending Liu Mang's breakthrough, and despite Liu Mang's increased explosiveness, they still blocked Liu Mang in the middle distance, and Liu Mang made a mid-range pull-up jump shot against Horry......

I couldn't make it this time.

The Spurs guarded the defensive rebound, and when it came to the Spurs' offense, it was still a star single, and Ginobili burst to the right side of the free throw line against Liu Mang's defense and didn't score.

Still the same as the previous two games, the two teams continued to rely on star chisels, with high defensive intensity, slow tempo, and inaccurate shooting...... The whole game was rather dull.

In the first four attacks, except for Liu Mang's amazing and ugly big loop, the two teams did not score any other goals for nearly two minutes.

Spurs fans at the scene have long been accustomed to this ugly style of play, the uglier the game, the better it is for them, and the fans in front of the TV are already desperate.

David Stern, who was watching the game, already hated the Spurs and Popovich to death, and even the Finals with the Hawks could play like this!

Based on the situation of the first two games, it seems that fans have seen another ugly defensive battle about to appear.

That's when the unexpected happened!

After Liu Mang advanced to the front court, he continued to use the strongest first step to accelerate through Ginobili, and after breaking through to the free throw line, Horry and Duncan's pinch came again, Liu Mang played sideways this time, and when Horry pressed up, he slammed into it!

Huo Li originally had a strength advantage over Liu Mang, mainly because of his strong static strength, and his explosive power declined when he got older, but the static power brought by his height and weight became stronger, but this time Huo Li didn't hold Liu Mang and was squeezed away by Liu Mang!

Liu Mang burst out with a sudden step and knocked away Horry, striding with his left foot from the sandwich between Horry and Duncan to the left side of the three-second zone, bounced to the right, and the explosive bonus brought by Wade's star card made Liu Mang strong in this confrontation!

Put the basket!

Just when the ball was thrown, Duncan waved his hand sideways and slapped it on Liu Mang's arm, Liu Mang's ball had been thrown, Liu Mang was slapped by Duncan and fell down, Duncan reacted quickly and hugged Liu Mang, not letting Liu Mang lie flat and fall to the ground.

At this time, Liu Mang's basket fell into the basket!

The referee's whistle blows, the goal is valid, Duncan fouls!

Actually went deep into the basket to score!

It was also played 2+1!

The fans who were scolding and saying that they were going to turn off the TV just now were suddenly high, and happiness came too suddenly! I just thought that today's game was like this, and it was the same as the previous two games, I could only watch the play of the stars on both sides, plus this is the home court of the Spurs, the defensive scale is large, and the Hawks are not playing so well.

But I didn't expect Liu Mang to suddenly go to the basket and cause damage!

It's all scored!

Duncan's eyes widened, but he immediately retracted his strange expression, no one noticed his emotional change, helped Liu Mang to stand on the ground, and then walked to the right side of the three-second zone and waited for the free throw.

Maddie was dumbfounded when she looked at her, can you rush in and cause damage? It was also played 2+1!

The threat of the basket that I haven't seen in two games is playing again!

The others are okay, Parker, who felt that Liu Mang was going to exert power today at the beginning, wants to cry now...... Although it is not Liu Mang who he defended, but this feeling is too hurtful, a rookie in the same class! It's so painful to be compared by people but not at all.

Liu Mang walked to the free throw line, twisted his body, moved a little, received the ball, and hit the free throw!

5-0 in the opening game!

It's so sudden!

It's a raw fight!

When it came to the Spurs' offense, steady, first stabilized, the Spurs still played like that, 0-5 down did not affect them, Parker passed the ball to Duncan and ran to the middle distance and did not dare to enter the basket, Parker was sandwiched by Liu Mang and Rasheed Wallace in the middle distance and threw it out, and he was lucky to throw it in.

When it came to the Hawks' offense again, Liu Mang continued to break through, using the first step to pass Ginobili, and continued to use explosiveness to squeeze Horry away, this time Duncan did not foul, but followed Rashid Wallace, who had a good sense of choice, to run back to the basket Nesterovich couldn't help but reach out to cover Liu Mang, the ball was destroyed, but it was in Liu Mang's hand.

Two more free throws!

Liu Mang walked to the free throw line, and after the first free throw was hit, Popovich called a timeout!

6 to 2, and then a free throw, another 5 points difference.

The Spurs made personnel changes and replaced Nesterovic with Bunch Wells early to bolster defensive mobility.

The Hawks, for their part, also made a substitution, bringing on Kwame Brown and Josh Smith.

Both teams are one big and four small.

After the pause, Liu Mang also hit the second free throw, scoring 7 points in a row at the beginning, helping the team to play a wave of 7-2 in the first 3 minutes!

No matter how unreasonable it is, just score it!

Liu Mang's back-to-back scoring gave the Eagles a five-point lead at the start of the game.

There is a characteristic of the Spurs side, as long as Popovich calls a timeout, the players will stabilize their emotions again, although occasionally when they are too steady after calling a timeout and are played against the sky by the opponent, but this stability is more for the Spurs to win the game.

The Spurs attacked, after Ginobili advanced to the frontcourt, facing Liu Mang's defense, it really hurts, the Hawks' defense is really targeted, who dribbles, Liu Mang defends whom, defends the first offensive point, and then puts Parker and carries out a pinch attack.

Ginobili's operation is very fierce, and the left-handed breakthrough makes people look very awkward but sharp, but Liu Mang, who can also be regarded as left-handed, was not thrown away, and Ginobili was not able to shake off Liu Mang before he was mad......

Miss!

Rasheed Wallace struggled to squeeze Duncan, and Liu Mang jumped high to collect the defensive rebound, turned and advanced quickly......

"Beep......

The referee's whistle is blowing!

Who fouled? Or who grabbed the rebound and pushed the man?

Liu Mang looked at the referee and found that the referee raised his elbow and pointed at him!

The referee blew Liu Mang's elbow foul!

Liu Mang looked down and saw that Ginobili fell to the ground!

According to Liu Mang's understanding of Ginobili, he doesn't need to think about it, this guy faked a fall!

Liu Mang is sure that he must be sure, this guy faked a fall!

There was no replay at the scene, but there was a replay on live TV, Ginobili took advantage of the referee's attention to the pushing action after grabbing the rebound under the basket, and the referee noticed that when Maddie took Parker to go down, there was only a blind spot for the referee on the other sideline, Liu Mang grabbed the defensive rebound and just raised his arm, Ginobili made a move to be hit in the head and fell backwards.

This is the home of the Spurs, and the referee has given the whistle!

Seeing Ginobili cover his head and get up, looking like he was hurt, Liu Mang really wanted to go up and really give an elbow!

Liu Mang went up to explain to the referee, saying that he didn't wave his elbow, but the referee ignored it, and at this time, even if the referee reacted, it was useless, and the foul could not be changed.

The referee pointed to the frontcourt, and it was still the Spurs who had the ball.

Back to 24 seconds, the Spurs had another 24-second offensive opportunity.

Liu Mang was so angry, but fortunately, the cold-blooded characteristic had an effect, and he didn't have an explosive mentality, so he gritted his teeth and continued to defend.

Horry sent the sideline ball, Parker received the serve and continued to Dior Duncan, Duncan received the ball, and Liu Mang went up to cover Duncan.

Parker came to the free throw line and took a step, Duncan passed the ball, Liu Mang returned to Parker for the first time, Parker didn't dare to shoot, at this time Horry pulled up from the bottom corner, Duncan went up to block Maddie who was chasing Horry, Horry went around to the left side of the free throw line, Parker hurriedly passed, Horry's mid-range shot hit to help the Spurs stop the bleeding.

Liu Mang received Rasheed Wallace's serve and advanced to the front court, and after arriving at the front court, he observed the Spurs' defense, which obviously had a tendency to shrink, Liu Mang did not continue to break through, passed the ball to Maddie, who came up to answer, and then went to the left side of the free throw line, leaning on Ginobili to the position.

To play high singles!

The mid-range offense is about to start to eat with a look.

Ginobili struggled to go around the front, not giving Liu Mang a chance to catch the ball, and actively squeezed Liu Mang and Maddie's passing routes, trying to stop Liu Mang behind him.

Ginobili, who usually can't squeeze Liu Mang, suddenly found that he used his hand to scoop Liu Mang behind him, and he actually squeezed through!

suddenly pushed Liu Mang behind him......

"Beep......

The referee's whistle is blowing again!

This time it was Ginobili's turn to be stunned, and the referee pointed at him!

What didn't you do?

Ginobili looked back and saw Liu Mang lying on the floor with his waist covered!
