From Today it is the King of the Basketball

On April 18th, Liu Mang and his teammates continued their discussions after two simple tactical training classes. This time, some of the list items were discussed, and the Cavaliers and Wizards were waiting for the playoffs this season. Team game.

There are four games today, the Cavaliers and Wizards, Raptors and Magic, Lakers and Rockets, Spurs and Suns.

Liu Mang and his teammates even want to watch the Lakers game. The Cavaliers know that they want to abuse the Wizards without looking at them.

But the Eagles coaching staff let them have to watch from the first game.

The playoffs are here, and many lists were released yesterday, on the 17th and 18th.

The least controversial is the ranking of Sports Illustrated.

In the playoffs, Liu Mang ranked first, Duncan ranked second, Kobe ranked third, James fourth, McGrady fifth, Nowitzki sixth, Nash sixth, Garnett seventh, Yao Ming was eighth, O'Neill was ninth, and Rahim was tenth.

The team's strength rankings, the defending champion Hawks ranked first in accordance with convention, but tied with the Mavericks first.

The Lakers are second, the Cavaliers third, the Spurs fourth, the Bulls fifth, the Suns sixth, the Jazz seventh, the Nuggets eighth, and the Rockets ninth.

The top ten, except the Eagles, Cavaliers and Bulls, the other seven are all Western teams ...

In fact, this list is already very controversial, the star ranking is very strange, but ESPN and T.N.T are even stranger.

ESPN ranked James second after Liu Mang, T.N.T ranked James ninth, and Bryant ranked first ...

ESPN is to support James. How does T.N.T seem to make O'Neal unhappy? Kobe is first and O'Neal is unknown in the top ten.

At this stage, there are still many people who are superstitious about O'Neill's dominance, and feel that it will be different in the playoffs. In addition to the TNT list, O'Neill is still in the top ten in all major lists, of course, all are in the top ten. .

However, Liu Mang felt that it was not a big deal not to make the top ten, Ginobili did not make the top ten. Iverson, Carter, Anthony, Milicic, Bosh, Josh Howard, Chandler and others Did not make progress, but these guys think Liu Mang will have a good performance in the playoffs.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the opener of the Cavaliers and Wizards' live broadcast by ABC TV nationwide began.

Starting at 3 pm, the Eastern Cavaliers and Wizards play first. At 5:30, the Raptors and Magic, Spurs and Sun start at the same time. Finally, the Lakers and Rockets series start at 8:30. Opener.

Late, for Atlanta in the east and Los Angeles on the west coast, it was n’t particularly late for them to finish the game.

In the playoffs, there must be a live broadcast of each round of the opener. As a professional athlete, it is a matter of watching videos or analyzing opponents in the game.

From 3 pm to 11 pm, Liu Mang is watching the game with his teammates in the arena, analyzing and researching while watching. Liu Mang and the coaching staff have one more thing, which is to analyze the Lakers and Spurs and Cavaliers. Let ’s analyze, by the way, see if the Lakers have anything to analyze, and make their own programs for the Spurs and Cavaliers ...

Of course, this is also the Hawks playoff preparations.

But watching games is always fun, not boring.

The Cavaliers and Wizards, as expected, Arenas was not played by James. Arenas himself played very well. He scored 31 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists on 10 of 25 shots, just at the peak. In addition to being afraid of Liu Mang, Arenas played well with many teams. In the face of the rotation defense of Larry Hughes, Snow and James, Arenas played well.

It's just that the Wizards only scored 69 points ...

Arenas is scoring almost half of the team.

The Cavaliers were just the opposite. James had 15 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists. He didn't score much, but the team was connected in series. The break-through assists rose, and the Cavaliers scored 95 points!

95 to 69, the Cavaliers slaughtered the Wizards to get the start of the playoffs.

The Cavaliers showed their strength, Snow and James' outside defensive combination, Larry Hughes and Newbell from the bench after the debut of high-quality defense, Peja and Marshall, Damon Jones three points, inside money The powerful defense of Dele, Guden, and Valejo made the Wizards only score 69 points.

The Raptors started with the Magic, Spurs and Suns series. The Eagles coaching staff chose to watch the Spurs and Suns series. After the four and five East Raptors and Magic series were recorded, the players went back and were interested in themselves. See, it ’s not very important not to see, basically there is no chance to play with them.

And the opening game of the Lakers and Rockets happens to be live on ABC TV. Magic and Raptors are another TV station. How troublesome.

If the results of the Cavaliers and Wizards series are expected, then the Spurs and Suns game is completely unexpected!

In the first game, the Suns beat the Spurs 111 to 106, away!

This can be said to be a big upset!

In the past few years, the Suns met the Spurs twice in the playoffs, each time the Suns were pressed.

But this time, the Suns took home advantage in the first game!

Although Duncan scored 33 points and 16 rebounds, Artest scored 17 points, 8 rebounds and 4 steals, Parker also scored 15 points and 11 assists, but over the Suns, Nash scored 35 points and 15 assists, and Josh Smith With 7 points and 15 rebounds, O'Neill scored 29 points and 6 rebounds, and La Gabriel also scored 15 points!

Among them, Nash and Rajabell jointly scored 10 three-pointers, both of which were 6 of 5 three-pointers, 6 three-pointers were made in the last quarter, and Lagarbeer made four three-pointers in the last quarter. As the Spurs contracted against O'Neal and Josh Smith, the outsiders threw the Spurs on the outside!

The Suns violently reversed the Spurs in the last quarter, and Liu Mang was shocked.

To say where the Spurs lost ... It was at the point of Ginobili that Lagaber defended Ginobili from 2 out of 14 points and only scored 8 points, locking up Lagaber.

Artest made Josh Smith 10-1. Josh Smith only scored 7 points on free throws, but a more critical scorer on the Spurs team was locked. Artest football He grabbed 5 offensive rebounds and scored 6 points in the second offense, but Ginobili couldn't make the shot and it was a wave ...

Lagabel ’s four three-pointers in the final quarter and the lockup of Ginobili are indispensable!

The series of the Raptors and Magic at the same time is another game.

The Magic beat the Raptors 89 to 81 away.

Liu Mang didn't see this game. He only used the computer to read the battle report.

In the confrontation between Milicic and Howard, Howard is like David Robinson who met Olajuwon. Howard is okay, 16 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, but the shooting rate is very poor, only 40% ...

Milicic scored 16 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 blocks to prevent Howard from wanting.

But other positions ... The Raptors didn't get the edge.

Raheem scored 40 points on the inside and scored 15 rebounds. He scored the first 40 of the playoffs this season. Turkoglu got 9 points, 3 rebounds and 11 assists. Organized in a well-organized way, he made full use of Rahim's absolute advantage that the other party could not resist.

Joe Johnson scored 25 points very well, Richard Jefferson also had 19 points, but the Magic have Tekoglu's excellent organization, give play to the advantage of the inside impact.

Milicic stopped Howard and Rahim!

After reading this data, Liu Mang felt that Grant Hill really dragged the Magic team. This is no doubt, it is indeed the case.

If Grant Hill walks early and Turkoglu gets the position early, Rahim and Howard will have a better pair of insiders.

This is not to blame Grant Hill, everything is life.

But ... after three games, Liu Mang couldn't help but say: "The difference between the East and West games is too big! How do I think the Western games are better?"

"Yeah, the Spurs all scored 106 points, and we have now played two games with a score of 100 in the east." Jason Terry followed.

"The east looks at the defense, the west looks at the offense. Of course, the offense is more likely to attract fans. Many fans do not understand the charm of defense." Mike Woodson said with some dissatisfaction.

Liu Mang heard dissatisfaction and ... disdain from Mike Woodson's tone.

Maybe Mike Woodson looks down on fans who only like to attack, Liu Mang thinks so.

Some people feel that they like something that is relatively niche, and have a feeling of being tall.

This is not a bad thing, but a normal psychology of people. Liu Mang has read a lot of psychology books in recent years, and has no special views on Mike Woodson's psychology.

But at this time, coach Kruger interjected: "The fans prefer to watch the score. This is a team that scores more and wins. We also like to watch beautiful games, but what can we rely on to win, In that direction, we do n’t necessarily have to play according to our own preferences. The league is accelerating the pace to encourage offense. We need to prepare early. "

By comparison, Liu Mang heard Coach Kruger's words and felt completely different.

If in the past few years, even when winning the first championship, Liu Mang felt that coach Kruger was a "tactical library" and "strict discipline", then another few years later, Liu Mang now feels that coach Kruger is completely different from that time.

First-class on-the-spot command ability, super-top tactical learning ability and the ability to integrate it into the team, as well as a good ability to judge the future trend of the NBA, is already a real famous coach!

I chatted a little about the offense and defense. After a while, at eight o'clock, the opener of the Lakers and Rockets series broadcasted by American cable TV came.

As Liu Mang and Jason Terry said, the difference between the East and the West is really big.

The Lakers and Rockets directly launched the offensive.

The most interesting thing is, of course, Bynum wants to challenge Yao Ming.

It's a pity ... If it's the regular season, Yao Ming takes the Lakers' usual "noble disease" mentality, Bynum desperate to get 20 points is possible, but Yao Ming is very serious in the playoffs, Bynum do not say challenge Yao He only reached 19 years old in November last year, and now has a significant gap compared with the new generation of four centers. During Yao Ming's presence, Bynum only had 7 in 1 ...

Was hated by Yao Ming 4 times!

But outside Kobe has more heads-up singles Iguodala.

Kobe couldn't look down on the Rockets. He didn't defend well and was playing against Iguodala.

The game is very good, with Yao Ming hat Bynum inside, and a direct dunk into the basket, Kobe scored outside, Gasol played a breakthrough layup and paid tribute to the iron on the 24th ...

The rest of the Lakers are on the waves, including Kobe and Gasol, but Yao Ming is the one who has fixed the **** of the sea. He has steadily scored 20 points, 15 rebounds, 5 blocks and 2 assists, helping the Lakers beat the Rockets 122-114. Won the first playoff win.

Kobe scored 41 points, surpassing the same season's previous record of 40 points in the playoffs. Rafael Iguodala also got 23 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists. Guy played He scored 19 points and scored 19 points. The Rockets had the highest score. Their point guard Alston scored 31 points ...

Unfortunately, Bynum's point was not only prevented by Yao Ming, but his emotions were also affected. When Yao Ming went to rest, he did not play well. He made 2 of 12 shots and only got 6 points and 6 rebounds ... …

For the first time in the playoffs, Bynum felt what the league's first center represented ...

Every time he watched the Western Conference playoffs, Liu Mang felt that the Western team's game is really beautiful. The Lakers are proud, but the game is gorgeous. Although the Rockets are far less powerful than their opponents, they are very hard. This is their tradition. I won't be put to death if I'm killed. I'm still going to fight in the end no matter how bad I am.

Liu Mang feels that the Rockets' problem is not the players, but the management ...

Gasol is out of defense, the Rockets power forward actually had 0 points ... their power forward is called Chuck Hayes ...

But Mutombo is doing well, with 4 points and 9 rebounds.

On the first day of the game, the Hawks gained quite a lot. In addition to the Cavaliers blood abuse Wizards, the other three games, the two games they watched were very exciting. The Spurs and the Sun played surprisingly. The Lakers also have a strength advantage. It's very outstanding. The one I didn't read, according to the report I read with my laptop, was also a wonderful defensive battle.

After watching the game, it was almost eleven. Liu Mang said goodbye to his teammates and drove home.

One night off, tomorrow, Liu Mang's sixth playoff tour is coming!

Since the first Sunday in February, after the Super Bowl ended, the United States has entered the basketball season.

First the NBA All-Star Weekend, then March Madness, then April, and the ongoing NBA playoffs.

On the first day, the Suns and Spurs made a wonderful comeback battle. The Lakers bullied the Rockets with a playful attitude. James led the team to crush the second-ranked scoring Arenas. 96 generation veteran Rahim is old and strong. Turning over "New Sabonis", the first day of the playoffs detonated the enthusiasm of the fans.

On the second day, there are more exciting players than the first day!

Liu Mang, Garnett, Iverson will appear in the playoffs today. The five-star Jazz has a craze for the Nuggets and the regular season that is close to the Hawks in the past three years and even the second consecutive championship with the Hawks. The Mavericks, who performed like crazy during the regular season, are about to debut.

Last night on the Internet, the Suns reversed the discussion of the Spurs. Whether the 96th generation of the strongest point guard and the strongest point guard can play in the playoffs as the core when they have a super lineup, so that the fans are full of look forward to.

If the Sun and the Lakers can meet in the second round, it will definitely detonate the attention of the second round.

But to this day, the attention of fans has been attracted by four other series.

Perhaps in addition to the close strength of the five-star Jazz and Nuggets series, the other three groups of series are a proper battering game in the eyes of fans and the media, but the Hawks and Bulls are highly popular, although the Mavericks have no players. High popularity, but their team is very popular, not less concerned than yesterday's first four series.

In the morning, Liu Mang came to the Phillips Arena early with the little loli sticking to him to come to the arena to watch the training.

"Dina, how old are you, how do you still eat ice cream, what to do if you gain weight?" Liu Mang felt that he had to be complained by Levia again.

It's almost summer. Atlanta is coming early in the summer. The weather is a little bit hot. When I arrived at the arena, as in the past summer, Little Loli wanted ice cream **** in the arena's store.

"Just eat one ..."

Liu Mang paid helplessly.

After paying the money, Liu Mang took the little loli to the staff aisle, and after leaving the shop that bought cold drinks, Liu Mang complained: "This broken ball hall, how sell things are so expensive, two small **** actually cost 30 Piece!"

"People don't need rent, no cost. Uncle is so stingy." Little Loli gave Liu Mang a blank look.

Liu Mang is really ... can't find a place to refute this grown up little loli ...

Little Loli herself played in the arena. Liu Mang went to Liu Mang for a while while she was idle. Liu Mang didn't delay Liu Mang when something happened. Anyway, Liu Mang's wallet was finally taken by this little Lolita I have been buying and buying, and eating and eating.

Liu Mang felt that this little loli did not come to see him train, but came to eat his poor ...

"Uncle, why are you so busy, you are about to hit the piston at night, you are too relaxed." Little Loli asked curiously.

Throughout the morning, the Hawks had a training session, which puzzled Little Loli, which was not the case in the past few years.

"No way, we didn't lose to the Pistons in the playoffs, I really don't know what to pay attention to." Liu Mang also looked very helpless, making Xiao Loli couldn't help laughing.

On the Pistons, the day before yesterday, they came to Atlanta on April 17, their schedule ended on the 15th, and after a day of rest, they came to Atlanta to prepare for the battle.

The Hawks are ready to make preparations, and the strength of the opponent is like that. I really can't find any more places to pay attention to.

An opponent who has abused four times in the playoffs in the past five years, the Hawks really don't know what to look for.

After chatting with Little Loli and eating lunch together, watching Little Lolita and the coaching staff eat spicy and spicy, Liu Mang can only nibble the boiled chicken breast with his teammates ...

In the afternoon, I took a tactical training class. If I wanted to go home to rest, I would go home and rest. If I wanted to take a rest in the arena, I would take a rest at the arena. At half past eight.

No way, the Eagles, as the most popular team in China, the Chinese market is the second largest market in the NBA. Officials need to cooperate with the rest time of Chinese fans. Yesterday the Lakers game is also a reason, except that the Lakers are in the west of the United States. The time for Chinese fans is also important.

At 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the first game to be played was the series opener for the Mavericks vs. the Warriors in the Southwest Division.

After more than five points, the Bulls played the Nets and the Jazz played the Nuggets at the same time, and finally the Hawks and Pistons.

The Mavericks have a good record and the team is highly popular. In today's lead, the Eagles, as the defending champion, played the last in the eight-round series.

I hugged Little Loli and took a nap in the lounge with the door closed. At two-thirty, the staff knocked on the door to wake Liu Mang and Little Lolly. Liu Mang had told him to call him at two thirty, he wanted Get up and watch the Mavericks and Warriors match.

Today's series, the Hawks don't pay much attention to this side ~ www.readwn.com ~ The Nets and the Bulls have too much difference in strength. The Mavericks and Warriors seem to have a bigger difference in strength. Only the Nuggets and Jazz are very close, but this The two teams ... basically did not make it to the finals, so today there is no schedule to watch the game together, and I have to play the game at night.

Little Loli woke up long ago and took Liu Mang to the bathroom to wash her face, then turned on the TV in the lounge and waited for the game to start.

"Uncle, why should we watch the Mavericks and Warriors game? Isn't it good to go out shopping?" Little Loli didn't think that this round of the series had any value. She watched the Cavaliers and Wizards game last night. It's ugly Extremely, in addition to James's sudden points, the Wizards are playing iron and iron and then iron, the basket is almost as crooked as the Los Angeles basket.

As Little Loli said, except the Liu Mang, the Hawks have no one else who wants to watch the Mavericks and Warriors. Everyone thinks this series is definitely the most boring round of the entire playoffs. The strength gap is too It's huge.

Liu Mang's eyes shone differently and asked with a smile: "Dina, who do you think the Mavericks and Warriors can win?"

"Who can win the Mavericks and the Warriors, uncle, are you insulting Dina ’s IQ? Of course it ’s the Mavericks. The Mavericks win 25 games more than the Warriors, and if the Mavericks deliberately lose, the Warriors ca n’t make the playoffs. "" Little Loli is very determined.

"Really? Dina, let's make a bet." Liu Mang felt that it was more fun to bet, in case the Mavericks won?

"What bet?"

"On the Mavericks and Warriors who can win, bet ... a hundred dollars! I bet the Warriors can win."

"Uncle, are you going to send money to Dina? Dina gambles with you!"

Little Loli immediately took out a hundred dollars from the backpack.

... after two hours and twenty-one minutes ...

"Uncle! Has Satan kissed your mouth?"
