1445. The little emperor faced difficulties
Which star would use data to comment on another star?
That's what Liu Mang did.
As for Liu Mang's long-term reputation, no matter what he does, as long as it does not violate moral issues, everyone who knows him, even sports fans who only know people like him, think it is normal, because he
That's the kind of person.
There are always many paradoxes in people's logic.
Just like Liu Mang himself knows that winning is the key. Most of the time, shooting percentage and other matters have nothing to do with winning or losing. Just like James, in the first four games of the second round, the average shooting percentage was actually over 50%.
Among the players who averaged 20 per game in each round, there were only five players with a shooting percentage of over 50%. James was one of them. The other four were all inside players. Liu Mang's shooting percentage was only 41%, but Liu Mang's shooting percentage was only 41%.
No one thought he performed poorly, but it could be seen from James's first four games that his best breakthrough points were limited to the extreme.
As for Kobe, his field goal percentage in the entire playoffs this season was 46%. In the regular season this season, his field goal percentage was 46.9%. His performance was almost the same. This has always been the case.
The most praised thing about him is that no matter how the opponent's defense is, no matter how much he loves to shoot without any difficulty and creates difficulties, his shooting percentage has always been so stable. It is just over 45% in his career so far.
But when Liu Mang compared him like this... people found that this guy was really tough!
There are not many free throws, because Kobe has always been very rigid in his play style and does not bother to draw fouls. Especially with Liu Mang as his mortal enemy, he is unwilling to play in a similar style to his death, and Liu Mang's play style is not that
You can learn it by just studying, unless you have that kind of talent.
Last season, when he averaged 36 points per game, Kobe only averaged 10.2 free throws per game. His free throw percentage was 85% and he averaged 8.7 free throws per game, which means he averaged 27 points per game.
It was a hard shot, but Liu Mang and Wade, who also averaged 10 free throws per game last season, both averaged less than 30 points per game...
With such a style of play and such scoring performance, Kobe certainly played a lot.
Moreover, Liu Mang also compared Yao Ming, who shot over 70% from the field in the first game of the Western Conference Finals, with Anthony, who shot just over 70% and scored more points than Kobe, and compared assist numbers with Iverson...
Liu Mang didn't say it clearly, but if you think about it, fans and media will understand what Liu Mang meant.
"If this guy shoots less, plays less iron, and lets Yao Ming, who has a super high shooting percentage, shoot more, he will win long ago..."
This is what the media interpreted it as.
That night, after the first game of the Western Conference Finals, Iverson was depressed in his hotel room in Los Angeles. After seeing the news about this incident on TV, he excitedly called the hotel front desk and asked them to open a bottle of more than ten
Thousands of dollars worth of wine...
"This boy Ace is really lovable!" Iverson shouted and toasted in celebration.
The style of play has changed, and his attitude of not loving training has also changed a lot, which is the key to Iverson reaching another peak.
However, the problem of greed and financial indiscipline...the situation remains the same.
…
Making Kobe unhappy may affect Kobe's mood in the next series of games and cause trouble for the Lakers, which is what Liu Mang wants.
Although the probability is low, it would be better for Liu Mang if the problem of the number of shots can affect the relationship between the foursome of "Add More Pills".
Comments from the media and fans are mainly based on ridicule. Of course, the media will definitely maliciously "guess" the situation within the Lakers regarding the shooting issue and guide public opinion.
The fact that three people became tigers is very scary. If the Lakers players really believe it, they will think that they have such thoughts, which is in line with Liu Mang's wishes.
Moreover, even if nothing happened and Kobe was unhappy alone, Liu Mang would also feel good...
Although Liu Mang's shooting percentage in the last round was worse than Kobe's, Kobe's shooting percentage in the last round was 44%, and Liu Mang only had 41%. The two average points per game in the second round were actually
Almost the same, Kobe averaged 30.5 points per game, Liu Mang was close to one point more, but Liu Mang was obviously much tougher.
But... Kobe couldn't help but give the same response.
This is where Liu Mang is confident. He knows that this guy wants to save face.
However, also in the midst of a storm of public opinion is Liu Mang's opponent in the next round - LeBron James.
On May 21st, the Cavaliers had a day off and were about to face the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Hawks.
This is the Cavaliers' second appearance in the Eastern Conference Finals, fifteen years after they played with Jordan's Bulls in the 1990s. It is also the third time in team history that they have reached the Eastern Conference Finals.
But this time they reached the Eastern Conference Finals. In the 1975-76 season, they relied on absolute balance and a lineup with seven players averaging double figures to reach the Eastern Conference Finals. They relied on tactics to reach the Eastern Conference Finals;
-The three superstars of Hardaway and Joe Dumars were selected to the All-NBA first team in the 1992-93 season together with Jordan. Mark Price and Brad Doherty, Larry Nance's Big Three were selected in the 1991 All-NBA Team.
-It was different to reach the Eastern Conference Finals in the 1992 season.
This time around the Cavaliers, people thought they should have been eliminated in the second round. They were not recognized for reaching the Eastern Conference Finals, and James was suffering from public opinion.
This kind of public opinion was just right, unable to pressure James to move forward, but it also caused problems with his mentality. He didn't know what to do and could only keep his head down and train.
Yesterday, during the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Lakers and Nuggets, the Cavaliers, who only had one day off, did not practice. They played the tiebreaker in the second round. They had to slow down their physical fitness, but James has been training.
In particular, Liu Mang's focus was actually on the Western Conference. Apart from saying that the Eastern Conference was his territory, he did not express any opinions on the Eastern Conference finals, which made James very frustrated.
"Looked down upon by superstars"
This is what James is thinking now.
James is a very thoughtful person and cares very much about the opinions of the media. This was also the case in the original time and space. In the original time and space, after losing to the Celtics twice in 2008 and 2010, he felt that he could never beat the Celtics.
The Big Three, in fact, if he stays with the Cavaliers for one more year, in the 11-12 season, the Celtics will have conflicts. Ray Allen will have conflicts with his teammates and coaching staff. The Celtics
He will collapse on his own. James can survive the Celtics for a little longer. That way, he will not have to risk the infamy of hugging his thigh, nor will he lose the "favorite" of the league because all public opinion attacks him.
"When he was at his peak, he could rank first in the Eastern Conference with any group of teammates, and he would have a high probability of winning three consecutive MVP awards.
But his fragile heart made him choose to escape... and caused an indelible black spot in his career.
With his fragile and delicate heart, James now feels that everyone in the world looks down on him, and he also feels very innocent. He just wanted to seize every opportunity to reach the Eastern Conference Finals. He didn't feel that he had done anything wrong at the time.
But now, he is beginning to doubt himself...
Mainly because of Liu Mang's existence, he felt the unmatched fear two years in advance.
Originally, he only had this emotion after being beaten by the Celtics in the playoffs in 2008, but now he has started to feel it.
Moreover, Liu Mang did not discuss the second round, so the public opinion storm he encountered was similar to the situation from 2008 to 2010 in the original time and space. The direction of public opinion was different, but it was both unbearable and unbearable for him.
How much he wants to "break and then build".
James's level of psychological torture was just the right level for Liu Mang.
On the afternoon of the 21st, at the Quicken Loans Center in Cleveland, the two teams competing tonight conducted tactical training at home and away respectively.
The Eagles have an extra day of rest, but the first day of rest is still in Chicago. They just arrived in Cleveland yesterday, so the training time of the two teams is the same. They can only start training on the day of the game. Both teams will play until the tiebreaker.
, the next round is about to begin without much rest time.
"LeBron, take a rest, there is a game tonight." Chandler said to James who wanted to practice more after the team's tactical training.
"I know, Tyson." James forced a smile.
What makes James happy now is that he got two teammates in Chandler and Peja.
Chandler is the kind of teammate that everyone likes, and his professionalism is admirable.
No matter what team he is on, Chandler will work hard to help the team win and contribute.
Just like in the original time and space when the Mavericks played the Lakers in the 2011 playoffs, Chandler, as a Californian, went to high school in Los Angeles and won the California state championship. He has been a die-hard Lakers fan since he was a child, and he will still mercilessly defend against Andrew -
Bynum and Gasol helped the Mavericks defeat their strongest opponents, allowing the Mavericks to win the 2011 championship unimpeded.
Chandler was also one of the players who dissed James. James didn't like him at first, but he just treated Chandler with the mentality that he must get along with good teammates, just like recruiting Garnett last summer.
But after getting along for a long time, James saw the good side of Chandler's character. This guy grew up on a farm, milked cows, raised pigs, and planted corn and okra...etc., he was good at all the work that should be done on a local farm in California.
James admired his hard-working and responsible character under the education of his mother and grandmother.
Although James is very annoying at this stage due to various internal or external reasons, just as the people in the network that James actively expanded admired him, Chandler was also attracted by his maturity after partnering with James.
, attracted by hard work, the two became good friends within a year.
Unlike Peja, a narrow-minded European, the two of them had the same chemistry and hit it off immediately.
Feeling Chandler's concern, James felt much better mentally.
Thinking of the scary big brother he would face in four hours, James was no longer so afraid.
