: 739. Just want to play

"Soldier: When an opponent with grief and anger feels desperate to the extreme, concentrate on his strength and swear to death."
Liu Mang felt that the other party had the mentality that "there is the last game anyway, no big deal".
Even if the home fans are occupied by most of the opponent's fans, their fans will not come to watch the game, and the Nets players will not feel irritated or dissatisfied with this matter.
It seems that I just want to play this game well!
On the Eagles side, Liu Mang and Boozer embraced and walked onto the court, standing on the side of the center line, watching Kidd walking on the other side of the center line. The two looked at each other without language communication.
From the eyes of Kidd, Liu Mang felt a completely different feeling from the previous games and the games he had played against.
Without too much exposure in the eyes, Liu Mang only saw a firm look, that feeling, the opponent just wanted to win! I just want to try to win.
Suddenly I felt that Kidd had an extraordinary and simple sense of "I want to play basketball". It didn't matter about self-confidence. Liu Mang didn't see any self-confidence in the Nets players' eyes. The Nets The team didn't regain their confidence, but they really wanted to play this game.
However, Liu Mang felt that this was too much!
How good is it to be honestly eliminated and go back to fishing? You have to cause trouble for the young man!
Such an opponent, kill! All killed!
Liu Mang doesn't dare to carelessly, sometimes this kind of mentality that doesn't think too much, but can explode powerful power!
Liu Mang and several of his teammates who were ready to start pre-match action after the shooting warm-up looked at each other. The teammates saw Liu Mang's eyes and understood each other well, knowing that they should not be underestimated!
...
Kidd came to the center line and looked at Liu Mang, then backed to his free throw line. Originally he wanted to say something to Liu Mang, but seeing Liu Mang did not relax and careless or complacent. , Proud expression, feel that there is nothing to say.
On yesterday's rest day, Kidd and Carter, two older players of the team, called their teammates together and held a meeting.
It ’s not something that wants to inspire teammates ’fighting spirit. It ’s 0 to 3 behind, that is, it is possible to beat the Hawks in four consecutive games. Last season they could n’t win four games in a row, let alone this. Season.
Kidd and Carter brought their teammates together, mainly for one thing. Kidd and Carter told their teammates not to think so much, but to treat this game with the original love of basketball, not to win. Lose, play the last game well, play your own style, don't let opponents underestimate them, don't underestimate yourself, fail this year, you can come back in the next year!
After getting rid of Mutombo ’s big contract and the expiration of some of the Nets ’middle-class contracts next season, players with an annual salary of more than 3 million are only Carter and Kidd. Richard Jefferson ’s rookie bonus has another year The Nets still have a bright future.
After Carter and Kidd lost to the Hawks in the third game with a big score of 0-3, it seemed like everything was clear!
Jason Kidd, he admits that he is not a good person, avenging, suppressing newcomers, excluding the head coach, having an endless desire to control the team, and fighting for the women for jealousy with the teammates, which caused the team to crash ... but he is also recognized as a self-confessed Playing cleanly on the court is one of the few players who has been selected for defense for a while, but the defense has no small moves. He has done his best to fight for the championship.
He witnessed a lot of changes in the times. When Jordan first retired, he entered the NBA and saw that Olajuwon seemed to be establishing a dynasty, but immediately Jordan came back and rubbed Olajuwon under his feet.
Jordan retired for the second time, Duncan summited, Duncan seems to have been the strength of the first center in NBA history since the rookie season, let Kidd feel that another NBA ruler is coming, but immediately O'Neill and Kobe founded the dynasty.
It was originally just one of the three Dallas Musketeers. Kidd did not believe in being the strongest player in his early years. At that time, he did not shoot well, made many mistakes, and defended in the first few years of his career. Two o'clock, the league average.
But after seeing so many ups and downs in the NBA and completely unexpected changes, Kidd awakened!
Before Jordan retired for the first time, Olajuwon was thought to be held down by Jordan forever, but Olajuwon also won two consecutive championships, becoming the rare Mianzhuang championship MVP in NBA history. He retired after a retirement and was eliminated by Anfini Hardaway and O'Neal in the playoffs. Everyone thinks that Jordan is old, but he opened his second three consecutive championships at the age of 33.
After that, Duncan and OK took turns to win ...
The NBA in the 1980s and 1990s was a unified situation. In the 1980s, the Magic Birds battle, except for their teams, won only two times. They both got 8 times. In the 1990s, except Jordan and Olajuwon only got the Pistons once and Duncan once.
But by the end of the old century and the beginning of the new century, the stars who entered the NBA in the 1990s won consecutive championships.
After seeing Duncan and O’Neal win consecutive championships in 1999 and 2000, Kidd broke the inherent impression that the championship team once owned by the unified NBA in the 1980s and 1990s was the league ’s ruler. He also had the urge to "stand on his own feet" in his heart. After coming to the Nets, he and Kenyon-Martin almost seamlessly joined together in a perfect fit, just like Kobe would meet Gasol in the future. Suddenly led the team to the finals.
In the past two years, Kidd's most brilliant time, he was 8 points away from the coveted O'Brien Cup.
However, to this day, the glory of the past two years has become a thing of the past, and everything will come again.
If he started from the beginning like he was selected by the Mavericks, Kidd must have exploded in his mentality, but he now has Carter and Richard Jefferson around him, and everything will be bright in the future.
Kidd and Carter chatted for a night after the game. They were originally used for mutual friendship. Instead, they came together to the point where they are now exhausted and sublimated.
Carter likes this feeling. In the Nets' more than half of the season, Carter originally wanted to use Kidd's organizational ability to make himself play well, but now, he likes playing with Kidd.
Carter is an easy-going person. His winning and losing minds have not been very good. In the original history, it was his peak in theory that he suffered a serious decline in physical fitness because of Bowen ’s three footsteps. Desire, will love the pursuit of performance, to the desire for victory, but this change, it is very late in his career, playing twelve or three years before starting some desire to win.
And now, with the teammates, they have experienced the glory of defeating the 60-win team under the gram, but when they feel that they are going to climb to the top, they are ruthlessly crushed 3-0 by the other party. That feeling has stimulated Carter's heart. The kind of desire to win suppressed by the psychology of "show operation" enjoying fans cheering!
0 to 3 is irreparable. Carter and Kidd chatted all night. In fact, most of the time, the two were silent and smoking cigars, but the two reached a consensus. It does n’t matter whether they win or not, mainly because they ca n’t lose it. My love for basketball!
Anyway, everyone, including themselves, feels that they ca n’t win, so it does n’t matter if they lose, play hard!
...
...
"Ding ... Equalization mode trigger, from Vince Carter, matching Tracy McGrady."
Liu Mang is thinking about how to play this game, thinking about what the opponent's style of play will change, and abruptly came a system prompt, Liu Mang stared at Carter immediately.
What do you mean? Liu Mang stared at Carter, recalling for a long time, he did nothing! How to trigger the equilibrium mode?
What's more, these dumb cousins ​​are really cousins ​​and always appear together!
The point is, what exactly is Carter changing? What will the big cousin be changed?
Carter just came to the side of the center line and stood with Prince. Now Carter is very relaxed. It is not important to win or not. It is more important to play well, but I feel a bitter look.
Following the gloomy eyes, I saw Liu Mang!
Liu Mang has now evolved into a monster in Carter's eyes. A rookie who started to do things in his rookie year. When he was in the second grade, he almost turned over the Eastern Overlord Nets. Now he has turned into a new Eastern Overlord.
Looking at Liu Mang's disgruntled eyes, Carter burst into his heart. After letting go of everything and enjoying basketball, Carter's mentality became relaxed. Seeing Liu Mang's eyes, he seemed to rush up and say, "Dude didn't want to win. Just want to play basketball, do n’t be so excited! "
But Liu Mang was not excited here. He just wanted to know what was changed, but the system did not say that it should not have changed much, because there was no reward.
But this makes Liu Mang even more curious!
Waiting a few minutes for the start of the game, Liu Mang became more and more resentful ...
Fuck him!
This cousin, love is causing trouble!
Carter saw Liu Mang ’s eyes start to become fierce, thinking of a few days ago, Liu Mang scored 51 points. Although Carter himself also scored 50 points in the playoffs, he found such a match in the two teams. In addition, let alone 50 points, it is very difficult for others to get 30 points. After Carter tried in the second game and failed, the mentality of the third game collapsed.
Now seeing Liu Mang's fierce force, Carter feels cool in Chrysanthemum ...
...
The referee signaled that the game was about to start, and Rashid Wallace and Jason Collins came to the middle to jump the ball.
The two teams 'lineup has not changed in four games. The Nets' other four starters are Kidd, Carter, Richard Jefferson and Aron Williams.
The other four starters for the Hawks are Liu Mang, Prince, Rahim and Ratliff.
Rashid Wallace won the jump in four consecutive games without suspense. The advantage was too great. After receiving the ball, Liu Mang did not worry, and steadily controlled the ball to the frontcourt.
Seeing that Liu Mang and the previous three games have not changed, the steady progress of the play, Kidd defending at the three-point line is quite happy, feeling that he is respected, he wants to say to Liu Mang before the game, they will do their best In the future, Liu Mang was ready, but seeing Liu Mang didn't feel relaxed, he stopped talking.
Now, when seeing Liu Mang continue to maintain the steady play of the first three games, Kidd is actively involved in defense.
Liu Mang was steadily advancing while observing the opponent's defense, not to mention, it seemed even more oppressive than the first game!
In the first game, the Nets overconfident because they had just beaten the Pacers. After being suppressed by the Eagles, the confidence collapsed completely, but now it feels normal!
Liu Mang came out of the three-point line and saw Kidd holding half of his space. Kidd ’s defense was still very good. Liu Mang chose to cut into the left half step, as Liu Mang expected. Kidd immediately pressed up to the right, and the threat of Liu Mang's attack in the first game was too great.
Liu Mang immediately smashed the ball to the ground, with a small broken step to the right rear, Kidd turned to chase, but turned around and saw the magical smile of Rashid Wallace!
Kidd responded quickly and immediately circled Rashid Wallace.
Liu Mang, through Rashid Wallace's defense, had to go straight to the basket. Aron Williams seemed to Liu Mang like a pile, and he dared to post it to oppress, Liu Mang dared to grab the ball This guy is upset.
However, Carter made up the defense for the first time, Kidd turned around Rashid Wallace, not to bypass the defense, but to approach the basket around Rashid Wallace, blocking Rashid -Wallace cut into the route while sticking to Rashid Wallace to prevent Rashid Wallace from catching and shooting!
Liu Mang was caught in the top arc three-point line by Aron Williams and Carter. Aron Williams topped and Carter might threaten Liu Mang ’s strong shot space by relying on the league's strongest bounce. When the two attacked, Liu Mang didn't really dare to vote and could only pass it to Prince.
Prince did not hesitate to receive the ball, the first three-point shot ...
Enter!
Prince's singles gave the Hawks the first lead.
But despite the progress, the Hawks felt pressure. The Nets' defense today is too firm and decisive, and the judgment is very good!
In the first three games, Prince had a good start, but in the process of anti-Carter, the touch also fell due to constant physical contact with Carter. They were 4 of 2 in the first quarter, and the shooting rate was almost 30%.
At this point, it seems that the Nets are eyeing it!
When Prince made a three-pointer shot, everyone except the Rahim who rushed for the rebound rebounded.
The Nets didn't have a chance to fight back, nor did they pull the pace of reincarnation like the previous few games and slowly advance.
Liu Mang saw the formation promoted by the Nets. At this moment, the Nets, like them in the past two years, are also their real strength. The kind of strength they have when they strike the Pacers, but they are probably Starting from two years ago, I was forced to step by step every year to the strength of the two rounds of the playoffs this year. I lost my usual heart and was completely suppressed. Of course, the collapse of confidence is also one aspect .
After Kidd pushed forward, Liu Mang went up and tried to press, but saw Kidd passing the ball to Carter, Kidd pulled himself to the left side of the three-point line at a 45-degree angle.
This Liu Mang didn't understand, let Carter single?
But Carter singles Prince effect is not good!
Carter's first two rounds of the playoffs, the shooting rate was 49%, the basket shooting rate was 65%, but in the first three games of the Eastern Conference, the shooting rate was 38%, the basket shooting rate Thirty percent, half of the field goal percentage is directly cut.
Since it was Carter's singles, Liu Mang followed Mike Woodson's defensive strategy, followed Kidd, and moved to the middle of the straight line between Kidd and Carter, blocking the connection between Kidd and Carter, always ready It's good to hit the ball, and at the same time, split the pass between Kidd and Carter.
Liu Mang stared at Carter all the time, Carter slowly dribble the ball to the top arc, Liu Mang continued to move his footsteps, and subconsciously glanced back ... Don! Kidd actually secretly wanted to leave his back ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and Richard Jefferson ran up from the bottom corner to block himself!
Kidd saw Liu Mang found that he wanted to run away secretly, and ran faster, Liu Mang immediately chased Kidd, Richard-Jefferson wanted to block Liu Mang, Liu Mang was a cross Move around and continue to chase Kidd.
Although Richard Jefferson did not block Liu Mang, but let Liu Mang move sideways, he has helped Kidd create the space to catch the ball. While Kidd cut, Carter was strong under Prince's defense. Jumping inside, passed to Kidd who had a little space. Rahim followed Richard Jefferson, but he did not expect Richard Jefferson to pick and roll Kidd. Kidd ran to the edge of the three-second zone. No one was defending when the ball came, and Ratliff could only block it. Kidd's subtle inside pass was passed to Jason Collins. Prince, who defended Carter to the free throw line, actively defended Jason- Corinth.
However, Prince is really not suitable for supplementary defense and defense. His strength is in the area of ​​attack, mainly single defense. He is very active in supplementary defense and defense, but his judgment in this regard is too general, and he has not seen Rashid. -Wallace has already rushed in, but has missed Carter!
Jason Collins received the player's non-stop ball and threw it into the air. Carter was like a dragon entering the water after the Prince left, and the dragon submerged! Half a step inside the free throw line, take off directly on the spot, against the sky's bounce speed and bounce height, when receiving the ball in the air, when falling, hit the basket!
Carter shouted high-five with Jason Collins and Kidd, and their minds were completely relaxed, playing a subtle cooperation!
Kidd holds the ball for only one second! But it played a perfect tactical cooperation!
Liu Mang watched Kidd receive the ball and upload the ball, Jason Collins did not stop the ball, two passes in three seconds.
Carter + Kidd, it seems that from the tactical level, the cooperation of the two has been sublimated!
