: 152. The hero's twilight

"Oh ..."
The fans next to the basket and the fans on the half of the Hawks' basket were clearly heard of Stockton's words. They were stunned for a moment. Lord Stockton, the general of the man behind Malone?
If it is said that Stockton gave Liu Mang an elbow and beat Liu Mang with bleeding, people are not surprised. Although Stockton has become less annoying after winning the hopeless title in the past two years, it will definitely not It is this kind of joking people who use ridicule to talk to Liu Mangbiao!
Is this really the rhythm of retirement?
From the middle of last season, Stockton suffered a decline in physical fitness in the second half, and it was no longer the general who was never tired before 2000. It has always been said that Stockton is about to retire, and since then Stockton The style of play has changed. In a romantic way, his style of play has become more relaxed. Evaluations such as sympathy, regret, and emotion all appeared on the Utah Shuangsha, and most of them appeared on Stockton. .
In the final analysis, Utah Shuangsha is a tragedy group that has been crowned by the three groups of the Yellow-Green War, the Bad Boys Corps, and Jordan.
Liu Mang blinked, making sure that he had read the wrong person. What was that legendary mean, shamelessly well-dressed, well-dressed, and always-handed Stockton?
Previously, the god-like shooting feel was very different from the impression of passing only.
Next up is Stockton's singles teaching time. In the peak period, he averaged 17 points per game with 13 or 4 assists per game, and the shooting rate of the entire career is rarely less than 50%!
First, try step by step jumper!
Then there is a false step of taking a step to take the ball and change the ball to break through the throw.
Next is the high back singles overturned jumper ...
The jumper around the pile of the pick-and-roll connection section ...
...
...
If it were n’t for the famous free throws, especially at the critical moments, Stockton was already a member of the 180+ club with 50 + 40 + 90.
In Stockton's view, this is probably the last time he has played in Atlanta in this life. I don't know if he will play next season. Today's game, the Hawks are obviously well prepared. It is difficult for the Jazz to leave with a victory. Just back-to-back in the last game, Stockton himself didn't have much problem. The key is that the team's best player can't run after a quarter. If there was a day or two of rest before, the game would not be like this.
In this case, Stockton feels that he is not as headstrong as he once, and teaches the younger what to call singles!
The Hawks counterattacked continuously, regardless of whether Stockton could score, they always counterattacked, and soon overtook the score.
After all, Stockton is so old, and his technical movements can be maintained. It is a good basic skill, but when he throws the ball, he starts to break, and he mostly plays iron slowly.
What can Stockton do? The strength of his team is the edge of the playoffs. Even if he is placed in the east, he will compete for six to eight, and he is so tired of playing back to back, even if Malone is in. The Eagles can't resist the counterattack. They can only rely on the offensive fight. If they are three years younger, this game can kill the Eagles, but now it is estimated that they can run themselves to death.
Soon the Hawks gradually pulled the score away, and even if Utah played together in the third quarter, it only lasted for a while and couldn't hold it anymore!
Malone is very upset and wants to win, but Stockton is more calm, and instead of playing his life in this back-to-back game with insufficient physical fitness, it is better to focus on the next game.
Liu Mang was frightened by Stockton in the second quarter. This technique! This core power! This basic skill!
I just heard that Nash had 40 points in a single game but was more willing to assist. Stockton is not bad!
Think about it, if one of the pick-and-roll coordination does not have the ability to attract defense on the outside, the result of the pick-and-roll is probably similar to that of Nash and Howard. Both of them go to prevent Nash. Howard steals the ball in the middle and is inside. Can't get in again.
After three quarters, the Hawks led the Jazz with 84 points and 71 points.
The difference is not much, but the late Utah Shuangsha is unable to catch up, and Sloan is also helpless, no one in his hand! Over the past 50 years, the Jazz have 11 50+ and 6 60+ wins in the past 13 years. The only two times are not 50+, and one is a lockout. That year, they won the league with 37 wins and the Spurs. One, once the main center Mark Eaton slipped close to retirement. Generally, in the absence of special events, the Jazz have won 50+ games and 60+ games for most of the past 13 years. The provinces of Pakistan are using it, and they are all old and retired, and no one really uses it.
After all, not everyone is Popovich. It took Duncan twenty years to get a Leonard halfway.
In the end, the Hawks lost and won at home, quickly reversed the situation with the team's hard work, and finally defeated the late Jazz 113 to 97, winning three straight victories, and the record became 18 wins and 7 losses!
...
After the game, as the second half of the first quarter, he began to lead the team to consume the tactics to kill the Jazz leader ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Liu Mang accepted the post-match interview.
The questions asked are all about the game. How can we resist under the circumstances, why should we choose to play in front of the Jazz with strong fast break ability, etc., is a very common question.
Liu Mang also answered honestly.
If it is not honest, Coach Kruger will be watching with a knife.
"OK, Ace, your mind is as clever as the legend. You suddenly found the Jazz's weaknesses. The last question, what is your teammate Stockton's opinion? I heard that he imitated you and Kobe in the game. "Famous Words." The reporter finally mentioned a relaxed atmosphere. The game was over. The reporter himself knew why the players did not like to play in the game.
Really speaking, who can clearly understand why he made those choices in the game? If you knew, McGee wouldn't have the five embarrassments every day.
The players were asked to answer a bunch of official answers. If you asked them unhappy, the players answered unhappy.
About Stockton? After Liu Mang looked at goodbye to Ratliff, a short middle-aged man smiled and listened, and a tall muscular man was chattering complainingly.
It's so different from the imagined Utah Shuangsha!
It is rumored that Stockton is the big devil hidden by the Jazz. He drives his teammates with the pass. The defensive end uses the inferior defense to deal with the opponent. Malone is the hot stormtrooper. The reason why they nicknamed "General".
But now, Stockton seems to be really fast forward, not seeing anything! Ma Long is still the hot assault soldier ...
What do you think of Stockton?
Liu Mang thought about it and replied: "Greatness will eventually come to an end, but greatness will never be forgotten!"
