Time passed quickly, Liu Mang and his teammates trained for a few days, and soon arrived on May 31, the final four days of the finals preparations arrived.
At 9:33 yesterday evening, the Lakers and Timberwolves' Western Conference finale ended at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
In the sixth game, the Lakers returned to the home court without giving the Timberwolves a chance, and the Timberwolves failed to create a miracle.
Unlike the previous game, Kobe Bryant stared at Szebiak from the beginning, and did not give Szebiak the opportunity to run out of the open shot. Payton finally played the game. The Lakers introduced him. To complete his task, the defensive end played the level of last season, defending Sprewell to 4 of 17 shots and only got 14 points and 4 assists. Since the six games in the series, the madman has not scored more than 20 for the first time. .
Even the madman was guarded. Szebiak was bitten by Kobe. Garnett scored 22 points and 17 rebounds in this game, but because the madman was defended, Garnett held the ball. Forced to increase, the Lakers guarded against 11 errors, Wang Zhizhi, who looked like a chubby, chubby face, snatched Garnett 3 times, and Malone made Garnett make 5 mistakes. Garnett has once again left a strong mark on the Timberwolves' team history record, an awkward alternative triple-double, plus the highest single-game turnover record in team history.
The Lakers defeated the Timberwolves 87 to 75 and advanced to the Finals 4-2.
The start time of the Hawks and Lakers finals was also determined to start on June 4.
In recent days, when the team training is over, Prince will pull Liu Mang and Liu Mang to single out.
Liu Mang singles Prince, the success rate is greatly improved than before!
Although it was a bit difficult for the first time, but the more skillful he was, the more hands he changed in the air, and the changes in his footsteps became more and more proficient. Liu Mang was desperate at first and was entangled by a guy who was obsessed with single defense. After his progress, Liu Mang also enjoyed it.
Prince tried to use various methods to defend Liu Mang, but the more ways he thought of, Liu Mang's use of the left hand in the breakthrough became more and more proficient. The ten-ball showdown was more practiced than Liu Mang himself. The effect of two or three hours is even better.
Liu Mang is right in thinking, and when he is playing against the real defensive tycoon, he is much better than boring his head.
In the same way, Prince also found room for improvement in the match with Liu Mang. In the past, when he was against the left-handed generals such as Ginobili and Reed, there was always some discomfort, and now he gradually began to adapt and The feeling of the left-handed player is opposite, although the two feelings give Prince defensive pressure differently, it is always good to be able to adapt to it, and it also plays for some players who clearly know that the right-handed is the dominant hand but the left singles are very good. With more understanding.
The Hawks' preparation for the Finals is progressing steadily. Liu Mang's singles skill training, Prince's single defense continues to strengthen, and the team's offensive and defensive tactics are also steadily preparing for the next Finals.
...
...
The Hawks and Lakers meet in the finals, which has a huge influence. If you count the basketball circles all over the world, it will even exceed the level of Jordan and Shuangsha's two consecutive finals!
The attention paid by Chinese basketball fans is of course the big one. Chinese players led the team to the finals in the core identity, which has already turned the sky in China.
The domestic hardware strength is increasing year by year, and has been increasing rapidly since the 1990s. The total economic volume has continued to break through, especially the economic growth rate. After experiencing the Asian economic crisis in the mid and late 1990s, it once again broke through 10%. From a national perspective, it is indeed very gratifying.
However, in terms of software strength, on the contrary, it seems to be going backwards. Entertainment and culture have been invaded by other countries. The atmosphere of Chongyangmeiwai has reached its peak. The Chinese football, which was originally expected by the Chinese people, has become a national shame. The atmosphere of Chongyangmeiwai has further expanded. In addition, people have more money in their pockets. With capital to admire foreigners, it is even more out of control.
Of course, in this atmosphere, there must be many people who resent the atmosphere of admiring foreigners, and in terms of number, there are more people who resent the foreigners who want to correct them than there are foreigners.
However, there is no way to correct the disgust and want to correct it, because the domestic software strength has experienced a serious retrogression after a decade of loss, and even the sports that people have high expectations are not as good as one year.
Table tennis, badminton and other small ball sports and diving and other edge sports are very powerful, but their influence is too low; football has high hopes, but the greater the hope, the deeper the despair comes; high-end tennis, golf, etc., 10% of the domestic There are no venues in the city and ordinary people ca n’t get in touch with it; basketball has always been pretty good, but basketball is a sports dominated by Americans, the gap between the first and second is almost a gap, and the Chinese team has more than a dozen names, no It's bad, but it's hard to be glorified enough to be publicized.
Under such circumstances, domestic attempts to correct this flamboyant atmosphere cannot be corrected, and no arguments can be used to correct it.
Therefore, when Liu Mang gained a foothold in the NBA, the highest hall of basketball in the world, especially after winning the MVP this year and leading the team to the finals, this finals was widely hyped by the official media in China and promoted from the Hawks At the beginning of the finals, almost every day, there were special documentaries of basketball on the court sports station. There were the origins and developments of Chinese basketball, the hardships to reach the top in Asia, and the difficulties of entering the world palace ... Then, Battle, Wang Zhizhi as pioneers, Liu Mang, Yao Ming entered The NBA has a decisive position, and finally Liu Mang is about to touch the pinnacle of the NBA.
In recent days, Liu Mang's rogue value has been rising, even faster than he got MVP and 70 wins in the regular season. As the system expected, this season is one of his NBA status and domestic sports status. year.
Liu Mang also pays attention to domestic news from time to time, but one thing is beyond his expectations. It is that he and Wang Zhizhi did not have much media hype in the final match between him and Wang Zhizhi. Even the domestic hype is that he and Kobe and the Eagles. And the Lakers Big Four.
From this point of view, Liu Mang feels a kind of self-confidence in the domestic basketball world!
The less confident you are, the more you will use some small things that are not at all important to others. It comes from my paralysis.
For example, in the future, forcibly binding Jeremy Lin, Zhou Qi, who has no dominance in the development alliance, will be used as a superstar embryo to promote, etc., which is almost impossible at the peak of Yao Ming.
But now, Chinese players have Liu Mang in the east and Yao Ming in the west. They are the top players in their respective positions, which gives domestic basketball fans a strong confidence. Similarly, it also drives the idea of many children wanting to play basketball.
If it was just the original Yao Ming, although many people in China fell in love with the NBA and basketball, but Yao Ming felt too far away from ordinary people. There is only one Yao Ming in China. In addition to Yao Ming in the world basketball, his height is also The powerful, that is, Sabonis, although the big Z is high, but the gap between the two is not generally large.
There is only one Yao Ming, which is almost unreproducible. Although the fans fell in love with basketball, they did not have the urge to get involved in sports, nor the urge to become a dream.
But Liu Mang is different. Although one meter ninety-three is also very high, it is not out of reach. In 1999, the average height of domestic adult men reached one meter six or seven, which means that every time Guo Jingming appeared, at least There must be a Guo Ailun.
The proportion of adult men with a height of 1.83 meters or more in China has exceeded 10%. The proportion of adult men with a height of 1.91 meters or more has also approached 3%. The proportion of people with a height of more than 2 meters has reached 5/1000 about.
Although the ratio is a little farther than 12% of the United States, the height is more than 1.91 meters, but the domestic population is large, the base is large, and the height is not less than that of the United States. It can be seen that the height is more demanding and the average height is higher than that of American college athletes. The average height of the CBA is also higher than that of the NBA.
In the past, most of the domestic successful basketball players were insiders. Guidance Zhang, Battle, Wang Zhizhi, and Yao Ming could have a little influence in the world. Almost all of them are inside. Sexual strength.
Now that Liu Mang has appeared, everything is different. Domestic children are more enthusiastic about basketball!
Relative to Yao Ming, Liu Mang ’s height is not out of reach. There is no shortage of players of this height in college, and even some high schools have players close to one meter nine, all seeing hope!
...
The domestic hype about the Hawks and Lakers finals is mainly about Liu Mang, and the attention of the United States is not low.
Everyone wants to see the Lakers lose in the finals too much. The three consecutive championships allowed the Lakers to establish an estimated position of at least two decades from the beginning of the new century, but also made countless fans want to see the Lakers crash. .
Now the Lakers are on the wire rope, either get the champion to cross the wire rope, get through the middle-class trap, or fall from the wire rope, crash directly, and enter reconstruction.
The Hawks set the Lakers' record in the 1999-2000 season. From the number of games won in the regular season to the record of a single season win in the playoffs, the Lakers kept the record one by one by the Hawks. Now the two teams are immediately It's time to play in the finals, and the topic of the finals is far more than in the past few years, reaching the level that has almost confirmed that Jordan will retire for the second time since the 1997-1998 season.
The influence in the entire basketball world is even greater than when Jordan has won three consecutive championships!
It's not that Liu Mang has more influence than Jordan or the Hawks have more influence than the Bulls, but the Hawks have the opportunity to defeat a dynasty team and bring huge influence!
Moreover, compared with the original Pistons in history, the Hawks are obviously more popular. At this stage, the Pistons still give the impression of a bad boy in the late 1980s. Not many people like it, but the Eagles are different!
When the Lakers also advanced to the finals, there were more fans supporting the Hawks than there were fans supporting the Lakers.
Like the Beat-LA that the Celtics roared back then, except for the Lakers fans, almost all fans support the Eagles to kill the Lakers!
In addition, the Double Sha Finals matchup, the continuation of the MVP battle between Kobe and Liu Mang, and the title of the strongest lineup in history have all detonated this basketball season!
...
...
"Ace, the Lakers came to Atlanta." Stockton came to the lounge and said to Liu Mang.
Today's training is over, Liu Mang is reading the newspaper delivered in the afternoon in the lounge.
Mainly the bookmakers ’odds of winning titles and the predictions of championships on major websites have come out.
There is no reason why the Lakers are hated, because in terms of the odds given by major media and gaming companies, the Lakers have 75%, which is a three-quarter chance of winning, and the Eagles are here. Only a quarter, 25% chance.
The Lakers ’odds of winning are 1.2 for the Los Angeles Championship, and the Hawks are doubling by 2.4. Obviously the media are more optimistic about the Lakers.
Liu Mang understands why fans hate the Lakers so much, and hate the Lakers. From the bottom of his heart, he is optimistic about the Lakers and fears the Lakers will continue to win the championship.
For Liu Mang, this is an additional motivation.
Hearing Stockton saying that the Lakers had arrived in Atlanta, Liu Mang asked, "So early? By the way, how do you know John, did I not see the news just now?"
Liu Mang is a bit strange. The Lakers finished the Timberwolves yesterday and came today. You know that two years ago, after the Lakers led the Nets 2-0 at home, the third game went to the away game, and the other teams were second. The day I went back to get acquainted with the away game, and the Lakers arrived in New Jersey on the evening before the game, and lived in Jersey City. I went directly to play away the next day, so proud.
"Karl called me and asked me to go out for dinner. Ais, are you going?" Stockton shook his phone.
This turned out to be the case, Liu Mang said with a smile: "I will not go, you and Karl will get together, then we and his opponent will be."
"OK." Stockton didn't force it. Sometimes the friendship of a man is not good for a third person, even a little apprentice.
After Stockton left, the last teammate left in the arena also left, and the whole arena became quiet.
Liu Mang can finally be alone in this quiet environment.
He did not leave after the afternoon training, mainly because he wanted to be alone.
The original noisiest arena is actually the quietest place, and it is also wonderful.
Liu Mang closed his eyes and emptied his head for a while. After feeling that the whole person was quiet, he opened the system panel and watched the change of a task after the Lakers reached the finals last night.
"For the official Mo Ruo to hold Jin Wu, facing the strongest team in NBA history, the host officially became the NBA era superstar officially opened the road, in this season when the group of heroes and old school basketball reached its peak, the task was triggered: Junlin.
Previously, this task was just put there, and there was no other specific task content. After the Lakers advanced to the finals last night, the task content finally came.
"The first stage of King's Landing: defeating the Los Angeles Lakers, the strongest team in the new century, to win the championship. Mission reward: Fruit of senior endurance. Failure penalty: OK combination relationship is repaired, Shaq O’Neal and Lakers relationship is repaired, Shaq -O'Neal recognized Kobe Bryant in advance, and Kobe Bryant began to recognize Shaq O'Neal's laziness in the regular season. "
The fruit of endurance ... Liu Mang has been eager for a long time, but has tried to spend millions of hooligans on blind pumping, in addition to such strange and strange survival skills, what kind of cognitive trees extract liquid from trees, repair water pipes, repair Ceilings, even repairing computers, repairing bicycles, and so on, weird skills of industries in the United States that are still profitable and some weird wild survivability, did not draw anything useful.
Liu Mang has been storing it for a long time and it is still a level 0, and a special skill that cannot be forcibly activated: the speed of level 0, that is, the skills obtained from Hamilton that year, is still useless.
Because no matter how hard Liu Mang works, the room for improvement in physical fitness is basically gone.
The endurance of 90 has been reached last season, and it still exceeded the original endurance limit. The original endurance limit given to Liu Mang by the system was 85, but as the strength limit increased and its own speed reached the upper limit of 94, the endurance limit was also It has been improved and reached 90, which is regarded as the top physical fitness.
But compared with the epic physical fitness of Hamilton and Kobe, it is too far.
The speed of this skill, the minimum activation requirement, is 95 endurance.
The endurance thing does not seem conspicuous. If you give a player of average ability, such as an ordinary starter between 70-80, it is useless, even if he has the physical strength to play the whole game, even if he tries hard to rarely hurt , The coach will not give him a chance.
But when it comes to the strength of quasi-first-class stars or the strength of first-class stars, it is different, such as Hamilton.
If you reach the strength of top and even superstars, such as Kobe, endurance is the comprehensive ability of physical strength and anti-injury ability, Hamilton is the kind of physical strength, first-class anti-injury, and Kobe is the kind of super-strong physical and anti-injury The disease is also super strong.
Kobe's greatest feature is his ability to survive, first to Jordan until his retirement, then to survive the peak period of Carter and Iverson, then to survive the peak period of McGrady, and later, even through the peak period of Wade By the way, they are commonly known as "NBA Carina Lau" ... These people are far less comprehensive than Kobe in their overall career, but their peak year or two are not worse than Kobe's peak year or two, and there are even more glittering ones. local.
However, Kobe is like Carina Lau, who has survived Lin Qingxia, Zhang Manyu, Wang Zuxian, Zhong Chuhong ... Kobe also aged these people, and was selected for a while in 2013, and even Wade could not enter the second team at that time. .
For superstars, endurance is one of the most important aspects of physical fitness. Liu Mang does not have much talent in this regard. Like ordinary domestic basketball players, physical strength is quickly lost under high-intensity confrontation, so physical medicine and The fast shooting master is extremely important to him.
The skill that Liu Mang has been coveted for a long time can't be used in his life if it is normal.
But now the task is here, the fruit of advanced endurance!
"Premium Endurance Fruit: Increases endurance by 3 to 7 points."
There is a gap from 8 to 15 points of the ultimate fruit, but if it can be improved by 5 points, it is enough for Liu Mang, he only needs to meet the requirements of only use, and the consumption of physical energy is not a problem for him.
And the relationship between O'Neill and Kobe Bryant is repaired in advance, which is bound to be a huge resistance for Liu Mang to dominate the NBA in his future career! Even if O’Neal ’s peak can only be maintained until 2006, UU reading www.uukanshu.com has two years to be the league ’s first center, and the most important thing is that O’Neal, who played with Kobe, played better than when he was in the Heat. It's much easier. The Heat's Pat Riley used O'Neal as Ewing and squeezed it to death. The Lakers have always raised O'Neal to give O'Neal the best chance to rest and let O'Neal play in the playoffs. Can play well.
For example, in the western part of the Lakers' playoffs this year, O’Neal ’s overall performance is not very good, but his deterrent is there, playing the Rockets to remove Yao Ming, and the Spurs to fight Duncan and Nestorovic. , Playing Timberwolves attracted Garnett and Olovokandi's defense, and helped Kobe play the king of the Western Conference.
Liu Mang can believe that if O’Neal continues to play with Kobe, it is estimated that the outstanding performance can be extended by two to three years, and O’Neal can also play an average of 17.8 points and 8.4 rebounds per game in the 2008-09 season. This was O'Neill who was almost scrapped by Pat Riley.
Therefore, this gave Liu Mang the pressure and motivation to win the championship!
Liu Mang can't count himself, how much expectation and pressure he has on his body and the motivation brought by these expectations and pressure, and the fruits of endurance are in front of him!
Moreover, even if we put aside all these expectations and pressures and put aside the rewards of the system, the chance of winning the championship alone has already made Liu Mang full of motivation.
The closer to the championship, the deeper that kind of desire for the championship becomes!
and……
Liu Mang took out his mobile phone, and turned it over a few days ago, and apparently lost a text message sent by a guy who was pretending to be a faceless face before the game.
Play the finals with this guy and the finals with OK!
On this point alone, Liu Mang's motivation for defeating the Lakers is already coming out of his heart!
