"Mike, is it okay to set it up like this?" Although Coach Kruger could see that the opponent wanted them to use offensive and defensive strategies that they were not good at and were not ready for, the opponent's singles played really well! He scored 16 points in seven minutes and shot 57 percent from the field.

If it was last season, this kind of brain-fighting ball with the opponent, Coach Krueger could choose to implement it very decisively, but this year's record is under pressure, and he can try not to do risky things.

"No problem." Mike Woodson says he's a professional, "Let's see what's next!" ”

……

Coming back from the timeout, the Hawks fielded a lineup of Liu Mang, Prince, Raheem, Boozer, and Ratliff.

Ratliff hasn't gotten off the game yet, mainly because he's the opponent's super tall man.

The Trail Blazers fielded Damon Stoudemire, Ruben Patterson, Wells, Rasheed Wallace, Sabonis.

The Eagles attack.

Liu Mang advanced to the front court, observing the opponent's defense, the huge Sabonis alone occupied the entire reasonable collision area, which is too different from Yao Ming's current thin appearance, and Liu Mang has the impression that even if Yao Ming is at his peak, he is not so big, Sabonis's upper limbs are too strong! And Yao Ming is not a type of player.

Liu Mang had an impulse in his heart!

Liu Mang dribbled to the top arc, and Patterson, who claimed to be Kobe Bryant's finisher, defended it.

Patterson is ready to let go of a wave of rhetoric and provoke Liu Mang, he has already prepared his words, he is practicing repeatedly off the court, and even ready to win the game, just like the self-proclaimed Kobe terminator back then, relying on such a gimmick, after this season to get a big contract, it feels cool to get 15 million for 3 years by relying on the self-proclaimed Kobe terminator.

However, before Patterson could open his mouth to release the gun, Liu Mang had already beckoned to block and dismantle before he reached the three-point line, and as soon as Patterson was about to speak, he saw Liu Mang pass the ball to Boozer who pulled a step into the top arc, and then, Liu Mang cut inside without the ball!

Ruben Patterson, 70 Stats, 64 Offense, 80 Defense, 81 Strength, 89 Speed, is a very good defensive titan.

Patterson hurriedly moved sideways to block Liu Mang's breakthrough, but was blocked by Boozer after dribbling a step high and lifting the ball! Liu Mang goes straight to the inside line! Rasheed Wallace followed Boozer out to prepare for the block, but Liu Mang directly passed the ball and cut it in, Rasheed Wallace couldn't stop it, Liu Mang rushed to the free throw line and Boozer immediately passed back to Liu Mang, and Liu Mang easily slipped into the three-second zone 1

This ball is so sudden! The rest of the Eagles are still running, and no one can help Liu Mang answer it, so the Trailblazers didn't expect this to be the case!

Just as Coach Kruger thought, Liu Mang will always make people "surprised", this simple and rough high and low pass cut, hit it suddenly, the effect is really good!

Liu Mang rushed to the free throw line and received the ball, and rushed straight to the basket!

Buckle him! It's to detain him!

Liu Mang looked at the big man who was about the same height as Yao Ming, and he couldn't help but want to deduct one!

Seeing Liu Mang menacing, Ratliff hurriedly withdrew from the three-second zone, and the fans at the scene had already begun to exclaim and boo, and some people were shouting defense and blocks.

Liu Mang rushed from the free throw line to the inside! …… Then he circled around Sabonis, went around and passed to Ratliff, who caught the ball behind Sabonis and dribbled and threw a shot to easily score two points.

The Eagles scored and scored double-doubles, but even Ratlleaf, who scored the goal, felt so unhappy, and the fans were even more speechless. It's all ready, Sabonis used his rough foul to get the bastard down.

The players of both teams also felt that their strength was unloaded, they were so nervous just now, the Eagles saw Liu Mang coldly launch an inside raid, nervous and expectant, Sabonis is a standard Lithuanian, the style of play is fierce, although he usually looks like a farm uncle, but he is very irritable when defending, the 1988 Olympics almost did not beat a group of college students of the American team to death, and the invincible dominance directly forced the United States to form a dream team.

But Liu Mang is a well-known dunk maniac, even when he was thin last year, he insisted on dunking, so the Eagles players are looking forward to it.

The Trail Blazers players are full of confidence in Sabonis, but they are still a little worried, and their expectations are mixed with uneasiness.

But no matter whether Liu Mang succeeds in shutting down, or is ruthlessly hated down or overturned, it can finally make the uneasy and expectant hearts of the players of the two teams have a result.

Who would have thought that Liu Mang would roar lively, suddenly fierce, and full of momentum, but he rushed in and passed the ball in a circle.

Even Sabonis was so confused that he forgot that there was a Ratliff behind him, otherwise his huge body, which was more than a lap larger than Ratliff, would have been able to slap Ratliff to the ground with a turn.

As for fouls?

It doesn't exist, are Lithuanians afraid of fouls.

"Wow, it's dangerous, this big guy is terrifying! That arm, that momentum! Liu Mang felt that it was very inappropriate for Yao Ming to take Sabonis as his target, the body ratio between the two was too different, Sabonis was a flexible standard white strong man, and his upper limbs looked terrible, while Yao Ming's upper body strength was too average, of course, it was very average compared to the top center, and it was more suitable for technical flow.

Liu Mang breathed a sigh of relief, and when he just rushed in, he saw Sabonis's arm propped up, and he really wanted to be hard, maybe he would be elbowed in turn, so dangerous.

Seeing that the scene was eerily quiet, Liu Mang could probably guess the contempt of others.

"Damn! That guy's arms are thicker than the master's neck, and he takes his head to hard steel! Liu Mang felt that it was enough to score a goal, and quickly ran back to his own half to wait for the defense.

The other nine players on the field were speechless, and the powerlessness of punching the cotton was not enough to describe the huge gap in their hearts just now.

Adjusted my mentality and the game continued.

Sabonis picked up the ball and sent it to Damon Stoudemire, and the Trail Blazers were slow to attack, without the fast pace of the first half of the quarter and breaking through or passing low posts to play strongly, because Sabonis is really slow now, after all, he is 39 years old, and he will be 40 in a few months.

The flying squirrel can't fly now, it's no longer the ball-handling core that can still hold the ball last season, this year's data is only an average of 6 points and 4 assists per game, after advancing to the front court, waiting for Sabonis to get stuck at a 45-degree angle about three meters from the basket, the flying squirrel immediately passed the ball to Sabonis.

Sabonis has averaged just 16 minutes per game this year, and the ball is often in his hands when he's on the floor.

All the Trailblazers pull off! Rasheed Wallace took Boozer to the bottom corner of the weak side, Raheem followed Wells who was ready to cut in, and Prince followed Ruben Patterson in the bottom corner of the strong side where Sabonis was.

Sabonis receives the ball with his back to Ratliff, Ratliff Alexander! The big white man in front of him, who is close to 140 kilograms, makes people hair when he looks at it.

Sabonis leaned in on Ratliff and bumped it, but Ratliff lowered his center of gravity as much as he could!

After all, he is old, and the 39-year-old Sabonis has no explosive power, and he relies on static strength to squeeze hard, and this kind of back beating Ratliff can still withstand it.

However, this is the effect of Ratliff completely lowering the center of gravity, and Sabonis wants the opponent to lower the center of gravity!

Bumped into Ratliv, Sabonis made a big turn towards the bottom line, Ratliff quickly lifted his center of gravity to squeeze up to the bottom line, at this time Sabonis showed his flexibility that his height and weight did not match at all, slapped the ball to Ratliff's crotch, and the flexible left turn squeezed Ratliff away, Ratlif did not lower his center of gravity and couldn't stop it at all, and was squeezed aside by Sabonis, Sabonis received the ball and gently put it into the basket.

Lift weights like light!

Not to mention, Yao Ming after gaining weight seems to be really like this! When Liu Mang saw the data comparison between Yao Ming and Sabonis, he heard that Yao Ming was a "replica" of Sabonis and scoffed, and now he sees Sabonis with such a body type and footsteps, he is 39 years old, this uncle!
