1034. The beginning of Feltons nightmare(1/2)
The next day, November 21, the Eagles ushered in their tenth game of the season, playing against the Bobcats at home.
In the morning, Liu Mang and his teammates continued to train on their own tactics of holding the ball and organizing offense, and then watched the video. In the afternoon, Liu Mang took a good nap to relieve the overuse of his brain in the past two days.
Warming up started at four o'clock, and at 5:40, 20 minutes before the start of the game, the players from both teams entered the stadium.
The atmosphere at the scene was very enthusiastic, nine consecutive wins! Fans are happy when they win. Although there was a small problem in half of the last game, the fans believe that the team will be able to recover.
As for Liu Mang's statement after the game that he was collecting assists, the media reported it exactly as it was, but the fans didn't believe it. Even if there was a video, they thought it was a deliberately edited scene by the media. The fans felt that there must have been some media who had taken advantage of Liu Mang's comments after the game.
Mang was "forced" to get angry and talk nonsense.
Even those who are not Eagles fans don't believe the video released by the media. It's too ridiculous.
The reporter almost cried. He only got two sentences from Liu Mang!
To be honest, no one believes it these days! That reporter really wants to go back to school and start over again...
Liu Mang entered the venue last, and the audience burst into cheers.
After entering the court, Liu Mang looked at the evaluation of the opponent's players' abilities.
"Emeka Okafor, ability evaluation 81 (peak), 75 offense, 87 defense, 36 three-pointers, 65 mid-range shots, 88 layups, 79 speed, 90 strength..."
Compared to last season, the Rookie of the Year... has gone backwards! Okafor's rookie season was like that of a No. 1 center in the 1980s and 1990s, but he was at his peak as a rookie. So far this season, his data has declined, with averages per game.
13 points and 11 rebounds.
Liu Mang is not surprised that Okafor is at his peak as a rookie. Except for James, Liu Mang has never seen anyone else with an ability evaluation of 80 in the past few years. And he has an ability evaluation of 80 at the beginning of the rookie season. After playing as a rookie,
The season is still 80, and that's Okafor.
With the beginning of the second season, the Bobcats no longer give all the ball rights to Okafor to improve his statistics. With the opponent's targeting and the Bobcats aiming for the playoffs, it is normal for his scoring to decline.
"Raymond Felton, ability evaluation 76, offense 77, defense 75, three-pointer 79, mid-range shot 72, layup 81, speed 89, strength 86..."
A stocky point guard with a relatively balanced offense and defense, nothing outstanding. His ability evaluation of 76 is worthy of being ranked second in the rankings. Kwame Brown and Howard only had ability evaluations of 75 when they first entered the NBA. Milicic, Wade, Bosh and others also have ability evaluations of 75.
almost.
"Gerald Wallace, ability evaluation 85, offense 83, defense 89, three-pointer 62, mid-range shot 78, layup 91, speed 90, strength 87..."
The most surprising thing is Gerald Wallace!
Liu Mang knew that during his peak period, Gerald Wallace was considered the No. 1 giant and was in the All-Star All-Defensive Team. But he did not expect that he had made such great progress in the first two years after coming to the Bobcats and was already the best among the first-class defensive players.
One of the few, and it also takes into account offense and rebounding. McGrady gave up rebounding and only had such a defense when he had to choose between organizing offense and scoring.
Liu Mang felt that the owner of the Kings, whose defense was so poor now, might want to cry.
Apart from these three, there is nothing else outstanding. Brevin Knight's ability evaluation is 73. Except for passing the ball up to 95 and speed up to 93, there are no other advantages. It is a standard data brush.
Blazek is a tall white guy with a good pie-eating type. His height of 2.18 meters allows him to easily eat pie, but he will stop when he encounters a team with strong defense.
Sean May is not bad. He has good talent and good fighting ability, but weight is an issue. Similar to Eddie Curry, he can't control his weight at all. His ability evaluation of 74 is excellent. After all, he is a player at the bottom of the lottery.
But you can only play for about 20 minutes a game, which is far from enough to be the main player.
Jumaine Jones, Kareem Rush, Keith Bogans and other seemingly important signings in the summer have not had any effect, and the data are better than when I checked with other teams before.
But there's nothing we can do, the Bobcats' salary is only $33 million.
After reading the opponent's ability evaluation, Liu Mang went to practice shooting.
Liu Mang didn't know whether to pass more or shoot more. He just decided to think about it. Winning was the first goal. New tactics, take your time. He didn't want to prove that he could pass as much as he did in the last game.
That's not necessary.
But one thing was strange. Liu Mang saw that all the Bobcats players seemed to be very motivated and motivated.
Liu Mang was very puzzled, what on earth were these people excited about? And why was that little fat man's eyes filled with "provocation" when he looked at him?
"Ding... Because Raymond Felton strongly wants to defeat the host and become famous, the temporary mission: The Beginning of the Nightmare is triggered."
"The beginning of the nightmare: Make Raymond Felton feel the fear of the NBA. Mission reward: Raymond Felton peak star card. Failure penalty: deduction of superstar points. After the mission is completed, there are subsequent missions that can be triggered.
"
This reward is too cheap! Liu Mang feels so bad. After his strength has improved, it is useless to use Felton, a star card that is basically featureless and has no outstanding advantages!
But there is actually a follow-up mission to torture Felton?
This actually made Liu Mang become more interested in this task.
…
Bobcats players have a lot of pressure on them right now.
In this game, the pressure comes from the title of "Eagles Terminator".
They feel like hell, why don't they like the Eagles fans, and some Eagles fans are making a fool of themselves and regard them as "candidates" to defeat the Eagles.
They are now second to last in the Eastern Conference! Except for the Knicks, who lost 11 games in a row at the beginning, they have the worst record.
In addition, there is the pressure of the team's record, which is what makes them breathless.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! With 2 wins and 10 losses, the Bobcats started this season. As fans and media expected, the double second place combination did not lead the team to victory.
After the Bobcats acquired Raymond Felton, boss Joe told reporters: "We will not miss the playoffs. We now have three outstanding cores, and we will not miss the playoffs again."
Boss Joe is very confident after getting Felton. He has the best rookie Okafor, Brevin Knight, a passer who is fourth in assists per game, and Gerald Wallace, who is such an outstanding player.
Role players, as well as Primoz Brezek, who averaged 1 point per game after the Bobcats drafted him from the Pacers last season, soared to 13.7 and almost won the Most Improved Award. The Bobcats look like they will be in the second place.
It looks like he has risen in just one season.
But the reality is cruel.
Felton is not good at all, and his performance is pretty good. Among the top four picks, except for Chris Paul, who performed extremely well, he averaged 15, 5, and 8 per game at the beginning of the season, playing the rookie season of Liu Mang, James, Anthony and others.
With their performance, the other two point guards are worthy of their draft position.
Felton averaged 12 points, 3.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game, and Deron Williams averaged 10 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists per game. Both performed well.
Felton is very stable. He has played very steadily since entering the NBA. On the defensive end, apart from his lack of height, he is very mobile and oppressive. He does not have the problem of Iverson and Baron Davis gambling to steal and miss people. He is a very good second place.
show.
But it's just good without water, which is obviously not enough. It is far from the description of Jordan's high hopes that he would drive the whole game when entering the NBA!
Felton can stably score about ten points, five or six assists, and three or four rebounds in a game, but that's it, no more, no less. If he wants to play a decisive role in deciding the outcome, it's still a bit short.
Far.
The Bobcats players may be under too much pressure and their heads are a little confused. They take everything the media and fans say seriously. They are very confident when they play against the Eagles today!
Boss Joe didn't come to watch the away game today. They were playing the Hawks. Boss Joe felt that he could probably win the league first place without going to the game.
The players also want to grab a life-saving straw. They really thought they were going to rise at the beginning of the season. Now they have 2 wins and 10 losses. They have lost so miserably. They are in urgent need of a morale-boosting victory. Beating the Eagles is of course the best thing.
s Choice.
Last season, there were only three teams that "didn't lose" against the Hawks. Three of them were the Suns, the SuperSonics, and the Nuggets, which tied with the Hawks 1-1. The Bobcats were the only team that tied with the Hawks.
The Eagles tied the game 2-2.
Sometimes you have no choice but to trust your fate!
Bobcats players feel like they are destined to be an Eagle!
Moreover, they are even more confident now that Boss Qiao, who always loses when watching the game, is not here!
Especially Felton. After he won the NCAA championship, fans were shouting "Everyone loves Raymond" and even compared him with Liu Mang. Now he has met Liu Mang and Felton
Want to prove yourself.
…
As Rasheed Wallace blew the whistle, Liu Mang received the prompt that the Devil's home court was about to start, so he threw magnesium powder into the air and came on the court!
Felton, who had just been thinking about banging Liu Mang, was frightened by the sudden burst of cheers at the scene.
This is the first time he has encountered such a fanatical atmosphere, even crazier than when he played in the NCAA finals!
The ones who are most affected by the Devil's home field are the rookies. Even if the veterans are weak, they at least have experience. But when the rookies meet for the first time, it feels terrible!
"Calm down, I need to calm down! We are the Eagles' nemesis, and we can win!" Felton stood on the free throw line and encouraged himself.
Suddenly, Felton felt a malicious gaze. As the gaze went away, Felton saw Liu Mang's unabashedly malicious eyes!
Felton was stared at so hard that he couldn't help but look away.
The Eagles sent out the regular lineup of Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady, Prince, Rasheed Wallace, and Kwame Brown.
The Bobcats fielded a lineup of Felton, Keith Bogans, Gerald Wallace, Okafor, and Ray Blasha.
Seeing the opponent, Liu Mang felt that this was a very good defensive lineup in positional warfare, but the offense... was he counting on Gerald Wallace?
It seems like Gerald Wallace is really the Bobcats' scoring leader.
Kwame Brown and Rebrasha, who is 2.18 meters tall, came to the center circle to jump the ball.
This water-cooler center, who basically couldn't play for the Pacers in the past three years, is really tall, much taller than Kwame Brown.
Kwame Brown is very motivated when he looks at a center that is taller than him. He feels a special sense of satisfaction when winning a jump ball over an opponent like him.
