Chapter 1098 1097. 10 three-pointers in three quarters!
Carter felt like his hands were being bound!
This feeling was strange and familiar to Carter. Liu Mang seemed to be stuck to him. His weak body seemed to contain infinite energy, and Carter couldn't shake it off!
If Carter wants to make a strong breakthrough, he can only send it to the opponent's inside defense range under the opponent's post defense.
Moreover, if Carter hadn't been afraid of Liu Mang's nearly two steals per game, he would have almost been stolen by such a sticky and oppressive defense at the beginning!
Just when Carter was about to retreat and throw a three-pointer, Liu Mang's chest suddenly exerted force, and Carter almost lost his center of gravity. At this time, Liu Mang reached out to reach for the ball. Facing Liu Mang, who is dominant with both hands, Carter was almost poked by the ball again, so he hugged him quickly.
Fortunately, it was at this time that Harrington, the former Pacers' famous receiver, came out to respond, and Carter immediately passed the ball to Harrington.
Harrington receives the ball, and if his teammates are not open so that he can directly have a chance to get an assist, he will not pass it.
Harrington was caught by Josh Smith who was chasing him, chose to make a strong breakthrough, and made a sideways throw on the left side of the three-second zone...
Harrington is worthy of being a strong candidate for the best sixth man. The angle of the ball is very positive, but unfortunately, the strength is a bit weak. The ball is thrown out and falls to the left side of the basket. It bounces off the cylinder on the neck of the basket and bounces off the basket.
The Nets have already started to retreat. Carter watched Liu Mang go to catch the ball, and he couldn't be more shocked!
Still making progress!
And it's still making rapid progress!
Carter thought of Liu Mang's quadruple-double and six-steal performance against the Lakers on the first day of the new year. For the first time in his life, he felt that his talent was being suppressed. He didn't even feel this feeling from Tracy McGrady!
At this time, Liu Mang had already dribbled and advanced, and Carter hurried to defend Iguodala, who was cutting inside.
Korver also started to run. After going up to help Iguodala block Carter, he pulled away to the bottom corner. After the Nets switched defenses, Harrington went to chase Iguodala, but was unable to pinch Liu Mang.
The Hawks replaced Korver, as well as Iguodala and Josh Smith, two cutting masters, and Kwame Brown, an All-Star center, under the basket.
Liu Mang faced Kidd's defense in the top arc, and forced his way to the left.
Kidd hurriedly moved in advance to block the direction of Liu Mang's left hand. At this moment, Liu Mang stopped suddenly, slapped the ball behind his left hand, changed direction, received the ball with his right hand, and broke through from the right!
Kidd is worthy of being a player of the best defensive team for many times. In this case, he still did not lose his position. He stuck to Liu Mang, forcing Liu Mang to enter the basket from the right edge of the three-second zone, and did not give Liu Mang a chance to directly attack the basket.
Liu Mang got within the free throw line, grabbed the ball, and the essence of human peristalsis started!
It was just the first step, and Krstic was thrown away. Liu Mang kicked his right foot, jumped to the left, grabbed the ball and layup...Suddenly felt something was wrong, Liu Mang switched the ball to his left hand, hit the backboard and fell into the basket with a pull-bar throw.
When Liu Mang switched the ball to his left hand, Kidd had already captured his right arm. Unfortunately, he was in the blind spot of the referee and did not get the whistle.
Liu Mang already has 18 points!
The Eagles are 20 to 13, leading by 7 points!
It was the Nets' offense again, and Carter continued to want to play singles. Although he successfully broke through to the right side of the three-second zone this time, under Liu Mang's defense, he used his height and touch to make a mid-range emergency stop and make a strong shot, but Carter has already felt that Liu Mang's defensive progress is real!
The last time he met Liu Mang, he had several matchups with Liu Mang. Carter already felt that Liu Mang's defense was better than last season, and it was more than a little bit better.
However, at that time, Liu Mang had only completed less than half of the designated training for the Gary Payton defensive training card. Now, Liu Mang is only one training session away from completing the training of the Gary Payton defensive training card, and he has already completed [-]/[-]!
The training cards are all completed so that Liu Mang can have additional defensive skills. In the middle of the training, there is a memory of the training that the training cards can strengthen Liu Mang's muscles and consciousness. Liu Mang's own defensive awareness, foot movement, and defensive choices have already begun to become stronger and stronger in the past 20 days of training and actual use in the game!
Carter has nothing to say about Liu Mang's progress. He has reached the point where he can lead the team to two consecutive championships and beat McGrady to become the second child. Liu Mang can still improve!The offensive end has almost reached the peak that Carter can imagine, and it can still be improved. Carter recognizes that Liu Mang's touch is good.
But the defensive end can still improve so much!
Just now, Carter once felt that he was facing Gary Payton, who entered the decline stage at the beginning of the century!
Even though it is Gary Payton who started to decline after the age of 30, he is also a defensive champion at the best defensive team level!
Last season, Liu Mang was selected as the second defense. Many defensive masters and even offensive masters did not recognize him. He felt that Liu Mang was lucky. He met a bunch of defensive masters and dispersed the votes before being selected.
But this time, from Liu Mang's footsteps, defensive resoluteness, consciousness, etc. in the two defenses just now, Carter is very sure that it is not Liu Mang's defense that happened to be like that, but that he has that strength.
In other words, facing Liu Mang, Carter could not rely on skills and explosive speed to deal with easy scoring like before, and could only rely on his personal ability to shoot hard!
It was much easier for Liu Mang to play against Kidd. Although Liu Mang started to miss shots in the one-on-one duel with Kidd, Carter missed more shots!
到了首节打完，刘莽单节12投8中，罚球5罚4中，三分球4中4，单节拿到24分外加3个助攻。
Carter's 11 of 6 shots were also good, with a shooting percentage of more than 6%, 3 of 17 three-pointers, plus two free throws, and scored 7 points in a single quarter, but with him, the Nets fell behind by [-] points!
Although Harrington played well, Kidd's first pass also created some opportunities for the Nets, but the Nets finished the first quarter and fell behind by 9 points!
35 to 26, the Eagles led by 9 points in the first quarter!
……
The Eagles occupy a strong initiative at home!
During the intermission, the Eagles sent Jason Terry and Prince plus Liu Mang's outside trio, and David Lee and Mourning inside.
The Nets replaced Kidd, McGinnis, and Carter with a combined average of 16 assists per game, and continued to send a combination of Harrington and Krstic inside.
After the start of the second quarter, the Nets were ready to flank Liu Mangjin in advance.
Liu Mang is almost catching up with the Nets in scoring alone, and the Nets don't want to be the next team that doesn't score as many as their opponents.
But after the start of the second quarter, Liu Mang stopped holding the ball and let Jason Terry and David Lee catch the ball and play singles. Liu Mang took advantage of running without the ball to get a chance.
Both Jason Terry and David Lee's singles were effective, forcing the Nets to pay attention to their outside drive pull-up jumpers and David Lee's low post.
At this time, Liu Mang took advantage of the effect brought by his super speed that he would not run slower and slower during the running period. When he saw every stitch, the Nets couldn't keep up!
In the 3rd minute of the second quarter, Liu Mang ran to the top arc and threw off the defense. David Lee scored the ball and Liu Mang caught the ball and made a three-pointer...
The fifth three-pointer of the game!
After the three-pointer hit, the Eagles were 43 to 32, and the point difference was opened to more than 10 points for the first time in this game!
In the 6th minute of the second quarter, before the official timeout, the Nets were 39 to 51, 12 points behind. At this time, Liu Mang made another three-pointer after receiving a pass from Jason Terry at the top arc, opening the point difference to 15 points. Liu Mang made three shots in half a quarter, all of which were three-pointers. He made 3 of 3 shots and scored six points.
Coupled with the scoring of Jason Terry and David Lee, the Eagles played a wave of 18-13 scoring in the half quarter.
The Nets have played very well offensively, scoring 6 points in 13 minutes, which is about the same as their average of 97 points per game this season. Kidd, Carter, and McGinnis have done a good job in organizing offense and scoring.
But today Liu Mang broke out habitually!
Only halfway through the second quarter, they already scored 30 points!
Continue like this……
The head coach of the Nets couldn't imagine it. Is this another [-]-[-] rhythm?
……
After returning from the timeout, Liu Mang encountered even stricter defenses.
However, Liu Mang had anticipated this situation, and Coach Kruger also made tactical adjustments to the Nets' defensive approach against Liu Mang who was off the ball.
Not only did the Eagles' scoring not drop because Liu Mang was blocked, but they played more and more smoothly. Especially after Iguodala, Josh Smith, and Kwame Brown came up, the Eagles played better as a team in the second half of the second quarter.
And Liu Mang hit the seventh three-pointer of the game in the No. 11 minute of the second quarter, scoring 11 points in a single quarter!
At the end of the half, Liu Mang scored 35 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. In the second quarter, Liu Mang only had one assist, but he created a lot of space for his teammates to pass or shoot!After halftime, the Eagles were 69 to 52, leading by 17 points at halftime!
Leading by 9 points in the first quarter and 8 points in the second quarter, the Eagles completely took the initiative!
……
In the first half of the third quarter after returning from the second half, Liu Mang rested for a few minutes and let Calderon, Jason Terry, Iguodala, Josh Smith, and Mourning play for a while.
The poor version of the Picco combination on the Nets can only continue to play, and the lagging side has no chance to rest.
Liu Mang listened to coach Kruger explain tactics on the sidelines. Coach Kruger analyzed to Liu Mang the running route of Liu Mang's five three-point shots that successfully ran out of opportunities in the second quarter.
In the first half of the third quarter, the Eagles had three second- and third-year players and an old man Mourning. Even with Jason Terry in the lineup, they still lost a few points and were beaten 16-12. When the official timeout came, the Nets chased the score to 68-81 and the Nets narrowed it down to 13 points.
The timeout called by coach Kruger entered an official timeout, and the Hawks started to make substitutions. The lineup of Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Iguodala, David Lee, and Kwame Brown came on the field.
The Nets replaced Ratliff, who had rested for two full quarters, with the full starting lineup, ready to start chasing points. There was one and a half quarters left in the game, and the Nets had no time to chase slowly.
……
After the timeout, the Eagles attacked, and Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt. Thinking back on the running route just now, he felt that the running route selection that Coach Kruger had summarized for him was very helpful.
After arriving in the frontcourt, Liu Mang saw that the Nets did not dare to double-team him like they did in the first half, and only Kidd pressed up. Liu Mang squeezed Kidd to the left side of the top arc, stopped suddenly, and slapped the ball hard with his left hand.
Kidd immediately blocked the space for Liu Mang's left-handed shot. Liu Mang received the ball, switched from behind to his right hand, and at the same time took a step to the right, making a three-pointer from the top arc...
Come on!
10 of 8 shots!
Liu Mang has scored 8 three-pointers!
Immediately afterwards, Carter faced Liu Mang's defense and made a strong three-pointer. Carter, who had already made six three-pointers, didn't feel so good this time. He hit the basket with a three-pointer and was grabbed by Iguodala for a defensive rebound.
Iguodala throws the ball forward, and Liu Mang is about to get off. He receives the ball past the center line and accelerates towards the basket. Carter and McGinnis both catch up. Liu Mang's acceleration makes them rush towards the basket at full speed, ready to block Liu Mang.
At this time, Liu Mang stopped suddenly inside the three-point line, stepped back and jumped out of the three-point line, at a 45-degree angle to the left, Liu Mang stepped back and shot a three-pointer...
Again!
11 of 9 shots!
41 points!
Liu Mang scored 8 points in the 41th minute of the third quarter!
Liu Mang scored two three-pointers in a row, and once again opened the point difference to more than 15 points, 87 to 68, and the Eagles led by 19 points!
The Nets were forced to pinch Liu Mang again, and Jason Terry started a single play. Although he couldn't continue to open the score, he still maintained the point difference at [-] or [-] points.
At the end of the third quarter, the Nets felt that there was still hope. As long as the point difference was kept within 20 points, there was still a little hope in the final quarter.
However, with 22 seconds left in the third quarter, under the pursuit of Carter, Liu Mang made a three-pointer after receiving a point from Iguodala at the top arc...
Liu Mang hit his tenth three-pointer in the first three quarters!
Liu Mang scored 46 points in three quarters, helping the Eagles lead 97-76 by 21 points!
For the fourth time in Liu Mang's career, he made 10+ three-pointers in a single game!
With Carter missing a three-pointer at the buzzer, the Eagles led by 21 points into the fourth quarter!
Liu Mang once again scored 11 points in a single quarter, helping the Eagles crush the Nets in the third quarter!Coach Lawrence Frank of the Nets has asked the substitutes to take off their training clothes. The Nets were beaten by Liu Mang's 10 three-pointers and gave up the game!
