1382. Ambition: 700 points in a single month(1/2)

As the saying goes, there is no worst, only worse.

But this saying is not appropriate for Arenas at all...

After five consecutive 50-point games, Liu Mang has averaged 31.8 points per game, exceeding Arenas's 1.1 points per game average.

Arenas scored 50 points twice this season, one of which was 61 points, and 40 points six times. His scoring explosiveness and sustainability are very good.

But he met Liu Mang who needed to score points to help the team win...

In Liu Mang's era, no one was worse off than Arenas.

In the same class as Liu Mang, he is older than Liu Mang, not as strong as Liu Mang, not as healthy as Liu Mang, and the team record is not as good as Liu Mang. Once in the playoffs, they were swept in a direct match...

The key is……

On January 21, 2007, the third episode of "Details" was released. In the show, Liu Mang analyzed how to defend Arenas' pull-up jump shot...

On the 18th, Arenas managed to overtake Liu Mang with 40 points after 61 points, but Liu Mang scored another 50 back-to-back, raising his average points per game to a level that Arenas could hardly catch up with. Moreover, Liu Mang gave Ali back

Nas added obstacles and analyzed his experience in defending Arenas...

There was a trend of "feeling sorry for the general" on the Internet.

The worst thing is Arenas...

Liu Mang analyzed Arenas based on his own defensive methods. From a technical point of view, Liu Mang actually did not defend Arenas that well. The main reason was that Arenas panicked when he saw him and wanted too much.

To prove myself, the result was very poor.

This is called "icephobia".

If someone else used Liu Mang's defense against Arenas to defend Arenas, the effect would actually be average. After all, this is a player with extremely explosive scoring power who can face Kobe Bryant who scored 60 points in a single game.

However, when Liu Mang analyzed Arenas, his opponents used the same method as Liu Mang to defend Arenas, and the effect suddenly became excellent!

This is purely a psychological effect, but psychological factors have a huge impact on a player.

On the night of January 27th, after two days of rest, the Wizards ushered in a home game against the Spurs. Arenas made 2 of 18 shots and scored 11 points...

Tony Parker, who was in the same class as Arenas, guarded Arenas!

Arenas played 25 minutes and only made two goals in 18 shots. The Wizards trailed by 31 points 31-62 after halftime and were bloodbathed by the Spurs...



"Uncle, Arenas is so miserable, please stop bullying him." The little Loli held Liu Mang's arm and looked at Arenas with a blank face on the TV screen. The little Loli couldn't help but feel pity for him.

Arenas.

Liu Mang also didn't expect that Arenas's mental endurance was so poor that a program would actually affect him to the point where he couldn't even beat Parker.

The last time the Wizards went to San Antonio, thanks to Arenas' 47 points, the Wizards defeated the Spurs 98-91, but this time they were defeated by more than 30 points.

After defeating the Magic back to back yesterday and avoiding a three-game losing streak, Liu Mang recorded the third episode of "Details" overnight in Orlando, which owns an ESPN affiliate, and it was broadcast at noon today.

As a result, Liu Mang returned home that night and watched with Little Loli the match between Arenas and the Spurs, another contender for the scoring title, and saw a one-sided massacre.

If Arenas hadn't made so many free throws this season, averaging 10 free throws per game, his free throws against the Spurs would have been relatively stable, with 6 of 7 free throws, plus a three-pointer and a pull-up jumper. It would have been difficult to score in double figures.

"Dina, you don't understand. This is a spur to him. Only when he has pressure can he become stronger. Otherwise, your uncle and I will not be able to find an opponent." Liu Mang pinched the little Loli's face and said.

"...Uncle, you are so mean!" Little Loli rolled her eyes at Liu Mang.

Liu Mang ate some loli tofu and while waiting for tonight's second live game between the Lakers and Mavericks, he read the scouting reports for the next 10 days of games.

I have played 42 games, with 27 wins and 15 losses. It is very difficult to win 60 games!

Except for problems within the team in his sophomore year, Liu Mang won at least 60 games in the other four seasons.

And the upcoming schedule makes Liu Mang's brain explode.

I just want to take a rest after returning to Atlanta today. In the next ten days from the 22nd to the 31st, there will be six games, four home games and two away games. The last two games are back-to-back home and away games against the Knicks...

Then there are only 28 days in February, and there is a 7-day holiday for the All-Star Weekend, and there are 12 games in the remaining 21 days, and there are 16 games in March...

The key is that there are many strong opponents concentrated in February and March, a devilish schedule!

Little Loli and I watched the Lakers vs. Mavericks live broadcast on Time Warner. In the end, the Mavericks, who are now gaining momentum, narrowly defeated the Lakers 115-111 away. The Mavericks continued to maintain the league's first record, 36 wins and 7 losses.

It’s now 13 consecutive wins.

Under the leadership of Nowitzki, who was in the same state as he was playing in the playoffs, the Mavericks entered their peak state early, and the Mavericks looked like they were going to win 70 games.

However, Liu Mang feels that the more the Mavericks are like this, the more dangerous they are. When he and his teammates were trying to win 70 games twice before, at this stage, they began to take turns to gain strength, but Johnson, the head coach of the Mavericks, fought harder.

It had nothing to do with him anyway, and Liu Mang never thought of reminding them.



On January 23, Liu Mang returned to Atlanta and after a night's rest, he ushered in a wave of three consecutive home games. The first one was against the Hornets, who are currently second to last in the Western Conference.

Arenas' mentality collapsed, but Liu Mang did not stop. He played for 41 minutes and made 24 of 39 shots, 9 of 20 three-pointers, and 7 of 8 free throws, scoring 64 points.

When the opponent's star player threw 20 three-pointers and maintained a 45% hit rate, he was basically unable to play.

The main reason is Paul's injury problem. This season, the Hornets played 44 games before playing against the Hawks. Paul only played 21 games. He did not play in this game. The Hornets did not have players who could guard Liu Mang. Liu Mang

They can shoot hard from beyond the three-point line, but the Eagles don't have any urgency to defend. They just had a day off yesterday, and they just played back-to-back games the day before yesterday and the day before yesterday. They just went on the offensive in this game.

In the third minute of the fourth quarter, Liu Mang played 41 consecutive minutes and scored 64 points to widen the point difference to more than 20 points. The Hornets announced their surrender. In the end, the Eagles easily defeated the Hornets 126 to 109.

Team.



With 64 points in a single game, Liu Mang continued his record of scoring 60 points at least once every season since he started playing.

After defeating the Hornets, Liu Mang broke his own record of the second longest consecutive 50-game streak in history, raising it to 6 games.

Previously, Liu Mang said that 50 points was very simple, and people thought Liu Mang was just showing off.

Now the fans truly understand that although getting 50 is not necessarily related to winning, Liu Mang has proved with practical actions that if he wants to get 50, he can get it if he wants!

Of course, if some opponents in a competition attack him endlessly and he still insists on getting 50, then there is something wrong with his head...

On January 25, the Hawks ushered in the second of three consecutive home games against the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Trail Blazers are also a member of the Western Tank Corps, the kind who don't want to win a game.

Liu Mang found it very interesting to compete with Roy. This guy's skills are so good. He had already completed four years of college when he participated in the draft. In his senior year, he won the best player in the Pacific Ten Conference and won the Wooden Award and Naismith Award.

, Alf Rupp Award, Oscar Robertson Award and other college athlete awards.

But today the Trail Blazers are not here to win. Liu Mang has two people guarding the perimeter when he is not holding the ball. One goes around the front, and the other is ready to defend at any time. Liu Mang goes to the inside, and Randolph is guarding next to him...

There is no doubt that the game was one-sided. The Eagles established a 15-point lead from the beginning of the first quarter, leading 31 to 16 by 15 points in the first quarter.

Of course, Liu Mang didn't want the record to end there. He squandered when he had the chance, and made 10 of 29 shots when he didn't have the chance. But just like that, the Eagles have maintained a lead of more than 20 points since the second quarter.

Advantage.

In the end, Coach Kruger couldn't stand it anymore. When Liu Mang was about to take the thirtieth shot, he called a timeout and replaced Liu Mang.

In the end, Liu Mang played 33 minutes, making 10 of 29 shots, 4 of 15 three-pointers, and 6 of 8 free throws. He scored 30 points, 8 rebounds, and 0 assists. The Hawks defeated the Trail Blazers 113-89 and won three games.

Winning streak.





In the U.S. Imperial Capital, Arenas couldn't help but burst into tears when he watched Liu Mang's 50-match streak finally break.

But... so what?...

Liu Mang has averaged 32.1 points per game...

Arenas could only cry when he looked at his performance of 30.5 points per game.

Averaging just over 30 points per game is already Arenas' limit.

As for Liu Mang's courage to shoot despite being double-teamed by three people, Arenas couldn't do it... and his team couldn't give him that kind of opportunity.

Liu Mang's latest consecutive 50-game record is set at 6 consecutive 50-game games. Liu Mang has played 13 games this month and scored 9 40-game scores, including 6 50-game scores and 1 60-game score. He still has 4 games left to play.

In this case, Liu Mang scored 546 points!

Averaged 45.5 points in 12 games!



"Ace, you are still 55 points short of Jordan's single-month scoring record this month." McGrady said while watching the news.

Liu Mang went over to take a look. In NBA history, there have been 8 times when a player scored more than 600 points in a single month. The first six times were all Chamberlain. The highest score was 854 points in a single month. Chamberlain played 14 games that month.

Averaged 61 points per game…

After that, he averaged 57 points per game in a single month, 56 points per game in a single month, and 51 points per game in a single month...

Almost all are records of Chamberlain averaging 50 points per game in a season and 44 points per game in a season.

Then came Elgin Baylor, who scored 600 points in a single month just once in 1962.

Then in March, the second half of the 1986-1987 season, Jordan scored 601 points in a single month.
To be continued...
