From Today it is the King of the Basketball

"Tracy, Mike James will leave it to me today." Liu Mang said to McGrady as he warmed up.

"Huh?" McGrady asked strangely. "Why did that guy mess with you?"

"No, I just see that your physical fitness will rest in two days, or let you play a little easier." Liu Mang looked like his teammates.

McGrady looked at Liu Mang before he believed Liu Mang ’s gossip. There must be some conspiracy!

But ... what conspiracy could the Raptors make Liu Mang have?

McGrady couldn't think of anything that the Raptors deserve to be planned by Liu Mang.

However, McGrady is certainly willing to play a little easier.

Since coming to the Hawks, McGrady's playing time has been greatly reduced, and it's really a lot easier, but he has to play carefully, not make too many mistakes, defend well, defend his offense carefully, and when the waves are needed, he must Maintain stability, if you are not careful, you will be attacked by fans.

After all, Rahim was the most stable thigh next to Liu Mang, assisting Liu Mang ’s growth, and sacrificed his offensive performance to help Liu Mang get MVP. McGrady was always used to compare with Rahim. Instead of taking the assists last season, he has always been regarded by fans as an “unsuitable substitute”.

Although people love Maddie, they always feel that Maddie is not as good as Rahim for Liu Mang.

So although McGrady has less playing time, he can't relax psychologically.

Liu Mang was glad to see McGrady had no objection.

He wants to perform more on the defensive end, and try to see if he can hit the best defensive lineup again.

Why Stephen Curry, who is so powerful in the future, has not been regarded as the first person in the league? Instead, Janis Adetokounmpo, Anthony Davis, Kawhi Leonard are seen as players who can challenge the first man in the LeBron James League, either Stephen Curry, or because of Curry's defense general.

The core of offense and defense is always easier to influence when the media and coaches vote.

Liu Mang's defense has always been good, but it is still a bit worse than the offensive and defensive one. Especially when the team has McGrady and Prince this season, Iguodala has grown a lot, and Liu Mang's defensive performance is getting less and less .

Liu Mang now wants to "grab credit" and take on more defensive responsibilities.

One is for his own ease. Second, as he told Tracy McGrady, let Tracy McGrady rest more during the regular season, paddle, and cover up the caps. Then go all out in the playoffs.

For Mandy's 20s, it's not as good as Kobe and James's 30s, Liu Mang really feels a pain.

Liu Mang wants to get more honors, and the best defensive lineup can not be selected because of the improvement of defensive ability. It is necessary for the coaches to see his ability improve, and it needs more defensive performance.

Before playing the Lakers to get four doubles plus 6 steals, Liu Mang has made people's eyes bright, he wants to take advantage of this heat has not completely dissipated, let people pay attention to his defensive end of the improvement!

...

At 6:10 in the evening, Liu Mang and his teammates entered the playing field of the Phillips Arena. There are still 20 minutes left, and the game without live broadcast will begin.

After Liu Mang entered the stadium, his eyes were locked on the dual-core Raptors.

"Mike James, ability rating 83, offense 87, defense 75, 84 three-pointers, 82 midfielders, 91 layups, 89 speed, 76 power ..."

"Dacco Milicic, ability rating 88, offense 86, defense 90, pass 80, three-point 70, mid-range 84, layup 92, speed 79, power 90 ..."

The Raptors have made a lot of progress this season. Last summer, the Raptors won the inspirational draft pick Mike James, and signed a five-year contract with Mike James for 5 years. The 30-year-old Mike James did not fail. This big contract, averaging 3 rebounds and 6 assists per game this season, played the best performance of his career and became the scoring leader of the Raptors. Together with the all-round center Milicic averaging 20.3 points per game, he led the Raptors to recover. .

The Raptors now have 19 wins and losses, and their win rate is almost 50%, ranking tenth in the East, with a chance to hit the playoffs.

Although it is a theoretical opportunity, the Raptors have given people hope. Milisic, who just renewed the 3 + 1 top salary contract in advance, is their hope.

Mike James admired Liu Mang very much. After losing his 22-year-old college graduation in 1998, Mike James went to Europe, the Summer League, and the Development League for three years. He was signed by the Heat in 2001, and the better he played, the better. The reckless player of the same year, now 30 years old, actually got a five-year full middle class, averaging 20+, becoming the Raptors' strongest outside player.

After being cared for by the Raptors for more than two years like a child, it finally paid off. In June of this summer, Milicic, who was only years old when he was in the draft, has already evaluated his ability by 88, which is not much worse than James. , Better than Bosh and Wade's talent!

But that is the Raptors have patience, for more than two years to change four head coaches for Milicic, whoever wants to die Milicic-change! If you want to reuse the record, you can't train Misici's coach ... change! Any player or coach that hinders Milicic's growth-change!

Finally, now, Milicic can be alone.

"Kwame, your opponent is very powerful today." Liu Mang said to the Kwame Brown next to him, "People say he is the first center in the future."

"I'm the first center in the East!" Kwame Brown refused to accept it, it was very fresh, but suddenly asked weakly: "Boss, do you think I'm very powerful?"

"Well, of course." Liu Mang looked at Kwame Brown's ability evaluation of 85. Offensive 75 is a bit miserable. Defensive is 90 as Milicic, and Kwame Brown rebounds better, with a 94 rebound rating. To a certain extent, many teams prefer centers like Kwame Brown.

However, Milicic is the core type of team building, true-offensive and defensive, good feel, good defense, and can also organize offense.

No one does not like such a center. Liu Mang likes to watch the Raptors. Especially when the Lakers played the Raptors game, Milicic showed the dealer and feel when he faced Yao Ming. Awesome, but Yao Ming made 10 of 10 shots and almost cried. It was quite painful.

Milicic and Yao Ming are very similar. They are very strong against the jumping center, and they have excellent blocks. But when they were against Yao Ming, they were playing.

The Raptors are indeed not bad this year, with two cores, and 79 veteran Jaylen Rose, who averaged 12 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists this season; 75 ability evaluations, 13 rookies and 6 rebounds per game. Eyebrow hero Charlie Villanueva; both offensive and defensive players have strong midfielders, swing guard Morris Peterson, ability rating 80, averaged 16 points, 5 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game this season, the Raptors can rise, except Dual-core, role players are not bad.

The Raptors are regarded as a spoiler for the future situation in the east, not without reason.

After reading the statistics and ability evaluation of the Raptors players next season, Liu Mang felt a match with Milicic, which was a bit interesting.

In the past, only Wade and Bosh were interesting. Now James and Milicic have started to stand up. Liu Mang is looking forward to the generation 03 starting to stir the wind and rain in the league.

Looked at Kwame Brown, who was excited and excited because of his encouragement, and then looked at the "white hope" of Serbia, who was looking handsome, and Liu Mang looked forward to it: don't let me down ... otherwise it will not be fun Now ...

On the denomination, Milicic felt a chill rise from behind, and felt two evil breaths, wondering: Is the air conditioning in this stadium broken?

...

With the video of Rashid Wallace's roar playing on the big screen, Kwame Brown slaps to continue to mobilize the fans' activity, Liu Mang throws magnesium powder into the air, and the two team's starting players debut.

The Raptors sent Mike James, Jay Rose, Peterson, Villanueva and Milicic to the starting lineup.

Feeling the enthusiasm of the fans on the scene, the Raptors players suppressed the uneasiness, they wanted just a wave of Hawks ~ www.readwn.com ~ How many years have not won the Hawks, the Raptors players want to win, think To end the 11-game losing streak against the Hawks, the last time they defeated the Hawks was November 2002, and they have never won since.

On the Hawks side, today Rashid Wallace continues to take a rest. He needs to play against Garnett in the next game with the Timberwolves. The Hawks do n’t want to be swept by any team this season. Prince also took a turn. The Hawks The team sent the starting lineup of Liu Mang, McGrady, Horry, Josh Smith and Kwame Brown.

Rotary players in the water, Horry iron.

When Milicic and Kwame Brown came to the middle circle, both of them looked at each other with hot eyes.

The two are about the same age. In Milicic's 85 years and Kwame Brown's 82 years, according to the situation where white people usually have shorter careers than black people, the two people may be retired at the same age, and they are regarded as players of the same period, and The season in which Kwame Brown started to rise was the 03-04 season. It was the same year as Milicic entered the Raptors to play a dazzling rookie season, so it has been compared for comparison with Dwight Howard as a league center. the future of.

Yao Ming, who entered the NBA one year later than Kwame Brown, was not included in the list. Yao Ming is the "oldest" and is 25 years old. He was compared with the shark at the peak.

The referee came to the court with a slightly less energetic ball selected by McGrady and was about to jump the ball.

Liu Mang looked at Kwame Brown's nervous and cautious look. Suddenly the bad water came and shouted towards the center circle: "Kwame, when you hit the other child's center, start lighter, don't make him cry ! "

Milicic didn't respond when he heard this, but Kwame Brown was stepped on the tail, staring at Liu Mang, with the words: "Boss, don't stimulate this guy, OK!"
