: Five hundred and forty-seven. No one heart will be hurt because of the pursuit of dreams

The score came 8-6, the Hawks led by two points, and the Hawks had the ball.
But the game has been played for 5 minutes!
As soon as the Nets came up, they played against the high ground. At the beginning of the game, the two sides were evenly matched, but after a few minutes of playing in the first quarter, Ratliff, whose physical fitness was not good at all, could not take the lead.
In the first five games, Ratliff averaged 35 minutes per game. Since the Hawks had a nine-player rotation this time, coupled with the poor performance of the two rookies of Boozer and Prince, it is more than Prince. The other four starters plus the seven-person rotation of Jason Terry and Jason Terry and Barnes, and except for the third and fourth games, they began to grind the defense while playing, pulling Telif's playing time is very much in the first quarter. In order to defend the Nets' pick-and-roll and constantly change defenses and make up defenses, he began to gasp for more than 5 minutes.
The Nets had a very clear goal from the beginning of the game, attacking the rhythm on the offensive end, and then let Mutombo and Kenyon Martin pick and roll around, took the Hawks 'inside to switch around and consumed the Hawks' internal energy.
Muhammad, the future evergreen, is also very tired. The average playing time of this round of the series has reached 41 minutes, and the Hawks are second only to Liu Mang in 44 minutes per game.
Liu Mang averaged 44 minutes this time, or because he only played for a while in the fourth quarter of the first game, and basically didn't have a rest in the other four games.
But Ratliff could n’t do it anymore. The Nets struggled to score the third goal of the game. When the Hawks attacked, Liu Mang advanced the ball to the frontcourt. When he passed the center line, Lat Lief had just crossed the center line, and Liu Mang obviously heard Ratliff's rough gasps!
Liu Mang finally understood that bad feeling!
The Nets want to rely on the depth of their lineup to consume Ratliff!
Without Ratliff, there will be a huge loophole in the defense of the Hawks!
And not just on the defensive end!
The Nets also discovered that Ratliff couldn't hold it anymore and saw Ratliff open his mouth to breathe. As a basketball player, Mutombo knows what Ratliff's gasping performance means , Called a tactic.
The rest of the Nets started crazy block cuts and breakthroughs from the outside, giving Ratliff a very good receiving position, and Mutombo was single against Ratliff.
Ratliff stood in a step in the three-second zone, carrying Mutombo, perfectly holding up his position.
Liu Mang's attempt to break through Kidd failed, and the pick-and-roll pressure of Kenyon Martin and Kidd's switch was already in the last attack. Liu Mang and Mohammed's pick-and-roll has suffered a lot. The perfect opportunity to hold the ball high and pass immediately.
Ratliff received the ball and knew that the team now needed him to open the score in the inside as he did in the last game. When he had a scoring threat at this commanding height, the outside could only be opened. It started with the last game. Open the situation like that.
Mutombo also knows that he has reached a critical moment in his career. Whether he can stay in the NBA next season depends on whether this last chance can be seized and concentrate all his energy to predict Ratliff ’s high play. .
Ratliff took a step inward and didn't bump, and he didn't have many other offensive skills, so he chose to be more direct and throw sideways!
Mutombo judged Ratliff's intentions and bullied him to fan Ratliff's toss!
Richard Jefferson grabbed a defensive rebound!
The Nets did not choose to fight back, continue to press the rhythm, and slowly pushed over.
Kidd held the ball in the top arc, Mutombo ran out and Kidd pick-and-roll, knowing that the old partner could not run, Muhammad replaced Mutombo and followed Mutombo to prevent pick-and-roll.
At this time, Kenyon Martin also ran out. Mutombo halved the half-pointer to the right side of the three-point line for the Kettles. Kenyan Martin came up to give Kidd a pick and roll.
It was to pull Ratliff out and run, but Ratliff ran halfway, Kenyon Martin's pick-and-roll was back, and he turned back and turned to hit the rim!
Kidd hangs the ball to Kenyon Martin, Liu Mang quickly catches up to Kenyon Martin, but La can't hold it! Ratliff just ran to the free throw line and turned back, struggling towards Kenyon Martin, but he could only helplessly shoot on Kenyon Martin ’s arm. Kenyon Martin dunked and scored two points. Causing a foul by Ratliff!
The Eagles called a timeout!
After playing for almost 6 minutes and only scoring 8 points, the Eagles coaching staff did n’t pay much attention to it. In the 90s of Pat Riley ’s era, the average number of games in the series was more than 70.
Mainly, Ratliff can't run!
Ratliff's deterrence at the basket is the key to the Hawks 'ability to turn the Nets' offense into 10 of 3 at the start!
It ’s not just Ratliff, Rahim ’s performance is also weak today, Muhammad ’s rebounding is also not very good, the best physical fitness is Liu Mang, and there is no other role except to follow Kitters anti-shooting Prince.
The Hawks can only make substitutions ahead of time. Use Kevin Willis for Rattleliff, maintain the inside height, use Barnes for Prince, increase the hardness of the defense, and use Jason Terry for the pulldown. Sim, enhance the projection, and today Rahim cannot go in.
After the suspension came back, the situation did not improve much. Kevin Willis was 41 years old in September this year. The top 10 minutes of the regular season is okay. The playoffs give the teammates experience and hold 2 million. The contract is a locker room leader. The bells and whistles of young people who are old-fashioned and young teammates can be combined, making the Hawks team atmosphere more harmonious.
But he was asked to run back and forth with the young man. It was okay when he first went up. He also deducted Jason Collins who replaced Mutombo. But he was playing, even the tired Ratliff was not as good as Kenyan. -Martin made a deduction directly.
At the offensive end, there was one less inside pinch point, and the Hawks had an extremely difficult outside attack. It was not easy for Rahim to cut a few.
After the first quarter, the Hawks 15 to 20, were overtaken by the Nets by 5 points.
This situation continued until the end of the first half, regardless of whether the Nets lead or not, they desperately suppressed the rhythm, and then grinded, Mutombo specifically dealt with Ratliff today, Jason Collins played other times .
In the second quarter, the Hawks had no choice but to grind their defense with the Nets. Kevin Wesley couldn't support it for a while, and Metola was replaced, but Metola performed terribly. Like the stakes, he can defend against low post singles, but the Nets didn't attack low post. After playing for a few minutes in the second quarter, he could only put Ratliff on the defense again.
After halftime, the Hawks 34 to 41, the points difference was pulled to 7 points!
The Hawks' biggest problem was exposed!
There is a big problem with the depth of the lineup!
I really want to say that the depth of the Hawks lineup is actually very strong, but the key is that Prince and Boozer have performed too poorly. The previous few performances were bad. In this difficult series, the Hawks dare not give them too much. Almost as much, because it is really bad.
Boozer didn't dare to defend when he was defending. Prince has always done a good job in defense, but he is still a little thin, and the experience is not enough. If the Nets change to Rodney Rogers, the Hawks only It can allow Liu Mang or Barnes to defend. Rodney Rogers is good at holding the ball in the middle and long distance. Liu Mang is very good at defending. Barnes is relying on hard work to defend. In this high confrontation game Performed well.
Coach Kruger is scratching his head again, feeling bigger and bigger.
The depth of the Nets ’lineup is great. In addition to the five big starters, Harris, Rodney Rogers, Aron Williams, Jason Collins, Anthony Johnson are all quality role players. The Nets The team has always been willing to spend money, and Kidd is there, no matter how the teammates change, the effect of playing is almost the same.
After a 20-minute halftime break, the Hawks came up in the second half and played a wave of 10-4, chasing the point difference to 1 point, but then the Hawks went down again.
When the three-quarter official suspension was reached, the points difference was slowly pulled away by the Nets, 50 to 55, and the points difference was once again pulled to 5 points.
Looking at the third half of the third quarter, just as the three frontcourts that were as weak as the chrysanthemum burst, Liu Mang found coach Kruger: "Coach, let Sharif and Nazir and Theo take a break, let Let's!"
Coach Kruger thinks this is also a solution.
After the official suspension came back, the Hawks replaced the small lineups of Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Prince, Barnes and Boozer.
Fight one!
The difference is only 5 points, the Hawks still want a wave, want to win the series at home! Dragging to the seventh game is too bad for the Hawks.
After a timeout, it's clear that the Hawks are desperate and will definitely change to a small lineup. The Nets have sent Jason Terry, Harris, Richard Jefferson and Aron Williams. James and Kenyon Martin's defensive counterattack team.
The Eagles attacked, Liu Mang pushed forward. Although he said "look at our young people", but the dismal performance of both Boozer and Prince, Liu Mang can only fight with Jason Terry on the offensive end. .
Liu Mang beckoned to let Boozer come to pick and roll, and the combination of Xiaoshuangsha played too little in this round of the series, mainly because Boozer shot too hard!
Just like now, Liu Mang and Boozer pick and roll, Kenyon Martin and Kidd hit directly against Liu Mang, Liu Mang distributed the ball to Boozer, but Boozer couldn't shoot!
The Nets counterattacked. Aron Williams grabbed the rebound and immediately threw it to Kidd. Kidd advanced the ball and rushed to the frontcourt. Kenyon Martin helped Kidd block Liu Mang who was chasing and defending. Get two points to the layup!
It really doesn't work!
Liu Mang can only make a gesture with Jason Terry, and the two are about to start ruining!
The next time, the Hawks attacked either Liu Mang holding the dynamite bag and rushing to the inside, difficult to score points by making fouls, or Jason Terry broke through the emergency stop jump shot.
By the end of the third quarter, the Hawks still lost to the Nets with a firm and steady play, 7 points behind 59-66.
In the fourth quarter, Liu Mang saw that there was a 7-point difference, not without hope! Never give up!
Liu Mang tried to rely on himself to create a miracle, using Reggie Miller's star card peak star card!
After the game came up in the last quarter, Liu Mang relied on the 90's three-point ability to make two consecutive three-points, reducing the difference to one point.
The Nets' defensive strategy immediately changed, defending Liu Mang, Liu Mang attacked everywhere.
In addition to Jason Terry, the Hawks really can't score a goal. The Nets rely on the rapid defense of the 10-man rotation, trying to suppress Liu Mang's outbreak.
Cut off the connection between Liu Mang and Jason Terry. Liu Mang will either make a double shot or pass it to a few poorly played teammates.
Although Liu Mang scored 17 points in the final quarter against Reggie Miller star card, led the Eagles to 24 points in the final quarter, and overwhelmed the Nets with only 20 points in the final quarter, but the sixth in the series The Hawks lost at home under the Nets 'strategy of dying to defend the Hawks' physical fitness.
83 to 86, the Hawks lost to the Nets by 3 points at home and were dragged into the tiebreaker.
...
...
One day later, the Hawks and Nets had a tiebreaker at the Nets at home.
Yesterday, the Mavericks and Spurs series ended. The Spurs outscored the Mavericks 97-79 away and advanced to the Finals 4-2.
Duncan's dominance may be the second best player in the new century after O'Neal, which is too buggy.
After the Eagles regretted losing to the Nets the night before, they made a long journey to New Jersey yesterday morning. After a night of rest, today they dragged their tired bodies and minds to the Gross Arena to compete with the Nets in a tiebreaker.
As the so-called defeat was down, Liu Mang wanted to fight for it, because he was not afraid of physical exertion. He scored 38 points in the last game, but the Eagles only scored 83 points.
This time the Hawks arrived at the home of the Nets. Under the pressure of the Nets' deep lineup, the Hawks really felt what it meant to be defeated!
Liu Mang had no choice but to play for a few minutes. After being scored 8-2 by the opponent, Liu Mang chose to come by himself, only shooting!
Passing teammates can not vote, so teammates can not move singles, the key is that even Jason Terry came off the bench today withered.
The Nets' defense has also changed. Kidd or Richard Jefferson singled against Liu Mang and defended others.
Liu Mang's score keeps rising, but the score is slowly pulled away by the Nets ...
...
...
76 to 90, the Hawks were eliminated by the Nets in the tiebreak. Liu Mang scored 41 points on 15 of 35 shots, but he couldn't stop his team's defeat.
From one to four to three to four, it seems to have improved, although the Eagles fans who have come to the road and occupy nearly one third of the audience have been cheering for the Eagles, and Liu Mang went to the locker room after the game. At the time, the fans on both sides were words of comfort, but Liu Mang was still very lost.
When the reporters of the court station interviewed Liu Mang, they were all words of comfort. Unlike the news that a certain wave, a tiger, and a penguin often have such and such black players, the news of the court station is actually the most friendly, especially the old ones. Basketball players of the first generation, regardless of whether they are Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian or even Sun Yue and Zhou Qi, are very friendly and hold great expectations and care.
But Liu Mang was a little dazed. Kidd was too strong. Kidd was only 30 years old?
Liu Mang remembers the 03-04 season, the Pistons five tigers are neat, the Nets and the Pistons hit the tiebreak!
The Nets' reinforcement this year is due to the strong enemy of the Eagles in the east, which is better than the original. Even if the Nets lose to the Spurs this year, will they have more pressure due to the double pressure of the Spurs and the Eagles next season? Reinforcement?
Liu Mang did n’t know how James felt when he was blocked by the Celtics and the Cavaliers before the Finals for three consecutive years, but would n’t it be worse than himself?
Hearing the cheers of the mountains and the tsunami all reaching the locker room over the stadium, Liu Mang quietly left the locker room.
...
...
Liu Mang wanted to find a place to walk around and relax, but when he arrived at the dedicated parking lot of the Nets staff, he found that it was not his home stadium, and he didn't park here.
Liu Mang looked at this strange venue blankly, thinking, if he had a home advantage, would n’t it be better?
Liu Mang took a punch in the parking lot and saw Michael Jordan, who was following the bodyguard and was about to leave.
"Aise, are you okay." Jordan took the initiative to comfort him.
Seeing Jordan, Liu Mang couldn't help but have a question to ask: "Teacher, can we win the Nets once?"
Jordan is not dissatisfied with the problem of the bull head being wrong with the horse's mouth. He felt Liu Mang's bewilderment ... and his desire to win.
42 points, 18 points, 27 points, 28 points, 19 points, 38 points, 41 points, sophomore Liu Mang averaged 30.4 points and 3.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists in the Eastern Conference finals. This performance, Jordan looked surprised! He believed that he could not do so well at Liu Mang's age.
In Jordan's view, it was a miracle for the Hawks to lead the Nets 3-2 at a time. He once thought Liu Mang wanted to create a miracle, but in the end he still failed.
A group of young guys, most of them playing the playoffs for the second time, can push the Nets to a tie-break in the finals team that is stronger than last season. Jordan although regretted that the Hawks failed to create the black that the Knicks once created Eight miracles in the finals, but the performance of the Hawks has been very recognized.
This is also the view of most Eagle fans and most media. The Hawks have a promising future, but this year's luck is not good. The two rookies who were entrusted with heavy duties in the regular season did not perform well, forcing the fifth Eagles to win Create a scoring opportunity for defensive center Ratliff.
Jordan looked at Liu Mang at a loss, and as a person coming over, he knew Liu Mang's idea of ​​being a young man.
He had boiled for seven years before he won the championship, and he was the best shooting guard in the NBA. He spent seven years before he became a wife from his wife and won the first championship. I have suffered much more than Liu Mang.
From Jordan, who has similar experience, the Nets are like a piston in front of Liu Mang.
As long as you cross the Nets, it's time for the Hawks to take off.
But this year, it is obviously regrettable that the Hawks are almost a bit short of 3 points in the sixth game.
Jordan patted Liu Mang's shoulder: "Ais, your time is coming, and it will be soon."
After talking, the style of Jordan ’s older generation came again. After talking, Liu Mang looked at Jordan ’s back. He was very sad, and he thought he was a master anyway. Let ’s talk more! Your apprentice wants to find someone to chat with!
...
...
Liu Mang walked on the outskirts of the town of Sutherford. He was followed by the police in the middle of the night, fearing that Liu Mang went out alone, hurting himself, or hurting others.
After asking a question from Jordan, the other party pretended to leave, and Liu Mang left the Nets home, then rubbed a police uncle's car and came to the suburbs outside the town.
The town of Sutherford, said to be a small town, is actually similar to a small county in China.
There was a heavy rain just now, and the sky was exceptionally cleaner than usual.
After the game, Liu Mang received many text messages, and Jordan and Wilkins both came to comfort him personally.
At this moment, Liu Mang seems to have a different understanding of basketball.
Not only did you initially want to make money on it, but it was not just for glory.
Unconsciously, Liu Mang seemed to regard basketball as a pursuit!
Liu Mang thought of a regular-season game that became unusual due to Kobe's retirement in 2016. Kobe Bryant scored 60 points in 50 attempts. That kind of reluctance to basketball and the decision to leave basketball.
Thinking of the 2018 Eastern Conference finals, I already have four regular season MVPs, three championships and a Lianzhuang MVP, which has laid the position of the strongest star of the era after 2010 and still scored in the sixth game of the Eastern Conference Finals. 2 to 3 behind, a leg injury in the last quarter, standing up without a team doctor's check, continuously hitting the rim, continuously throwing the ball, no matter how strong the opponent returns to home, it may win this game It's just a persistent struggle, and I still try my best.
This is not just for honor, Kobe is no longer just paranoia, James is no longer just to establish his own image, this kind of heart has become very pure, basketball has become a pure pursuit!
Seeing the rare stars in New Jersey, watching the stars scattered in the fields, even if the environment in New Jersey is even worse, even if the haze is full of sky, the crops still grow tenaciously.
Liu Mang thought of a sentence in a book he had read that impressed him: Without a heart, he would be injured because of his dream.
Become stronger! Be stronger!
In addition to yourself, teammates must also become stronger!
In addition to Kidkenyan-Martin ~ EbookFREE.me ~, the Nets can play so well with a group of role players. This lineup has reached the finals for two consecutive years, let Liu Mang understand the importance of the team.
Liu Mang silently took the oath: "Next time, I will never lose again!"
"Sorry, let you come here with me, let's go back and delay your time." Liu Mang walked carefully to the police in front of him.
"Oh, it's okay, it's our honor. It's okay to see you now. God bless you. I'm your fan. I don't want you to think about it because you lost once."
"Really? You are my star, you are not New Jersey?"
"I am from New Jersey, but I am not a Nets fan. The Nets have never been our home team. They all dream of going back to New York."
"The Nets are really pitiful. New Yorkers don't want them, and you don't want them."
"Aise, you are Chinese. You may not know that New Jersey is a state jointly managed by four metropolitan areas. Jersey City belongs to the Philadelphia metropolitan area."
"The circle is really messy, or is it good for us in Atlanta, would you like to come to Atlanta to be a policeman?"
"... Let's go back, of course, before you leave New Jersey, you have to go to the court to pay a fine of 200 yuan, you violated the night control regulations, and there is a 100 yuan police attendance fee.
"NO, it was your business that brought me out of the car!"
"Our gun ban has not yet been implemented, I am protecting you!"
"That's your problem! You know? Sometimes being a good person doesn't pay well!"
"..."
"..."
As Liu Mang and the police uncle joked while getting on the bus back to the hotel, Liu Mang's system came up with a passage ...
"Ding ... The host has passed the newcomer period, the system is being upgraded ..."
