"Richard, how's the game going with the Kings?" Popovich looked at Duncan's rare eagerness to try, and watched Liu Mang dominate the outside line on the court, forcing the rookie to give up his sports car, and was not in a hurry to make substitutions.

Instead, ask Buford, the team's new general manager.

Richard Crawford Buford, or RC Buford for short, was a scout for the Spurs last season. Last summer’s draft brought Parker to the Spurs, and it was also the next season that cost Ginobili 30 from the Italian League.

The famous general manager who brought Ginobili back with 10,000 euros and formed a troika. At first, Popovich looked down on Parker. He didn’t expect that he would be able to enter the NBA. He was very optimistic about Buford as a player.

Popovich, the team's executive vice president, directly gave up the position of general manager to RC Buford.

"The Kings lost to the Mavericks in overtime." Buford said concisely.

Half an hour before the start of the game between the Spurs and the Hawks, the game between the Kings and the Mavericks started. In theory, the game between the Spurs and the Hawks should have finished the third quarter, and the game between the Kings and the Mavericks was almost over.

Unexpectedly, they actually played into overtime, and the Mavericks made a strong comeback and defeated the Kings in the away game.

At the beginning of the first quarter, the Kings led the Mavericks by more than ten points, but ended up losing.

After Popovich learned about the situation, he looked at the score and found that he was in danger of losing by 7 points. Fortunately, he didn't lead too much after three quarters.

Just in time, Liu Mang caused a three-point foul on Daniels, who was actively defensive, from outside the three-point line. The ball was dead. Popovich ignored Duncan and said to the bench: "That...Bryant, it's you, go up and strengthen it."

Defend, fight for rebounds.”

Bryant didn't expect that he would actually play in this crucial fourth quarter!

Isn't it time to change the boss? Hey...who is the boss?

Bryant and Malik Rose formed an inside combination, with an iron elbow and a ferocious face, which looked quite bluffing.

But it was these two who got 6 rebounds in a single quarter from Raheem.

Duncan originally had a rare expression of surprise on his face when he saw Popovich's substitution, but the smile froze on his face.

"Greg, didn't you ask me to get close to Acedo?" Duncan leaned in front of Popovich and tried to find a sense of presence.

"Tim, why are you here? Did you just talk to me?" Popovich seemed to have just discovered Duncan.

"..."

Duncan is so sad that even the coach doesn’t see him?

…

…

"Ding... The effect of O'Neal's 2002 version of the star card ends, the host's ability value is restored, and the bench gangster is triggered."

"Huh..." Liu Mang looked at the score of 90 to 81 and hit a wave of 17 to 6 in 5 minutes of game time!

It was really fun to play. He suppressed his opponents with all kinds of power. Even the two short inside players were no match for him. Liu Mang had double figures in rebounds in a single game for the first time in his career!

13 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists in a single quarter, plus 12 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in the first three quarters, it’s already 25 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists!

Also had two blocks and three steals!

Unfortunately, Popovich did not replace Duncan and looked at the Spurs' combination of Terry Porter, Jason Hart, Stephen Jackson, Malik Rose, and Bryant.

This...the Spurs actually gave up the game?

Is there any mistake?

In the first three quarters, the Spurs were suppressed by their strength, okay?

Just give up when you say you give up?

Coach Kruger was scratching his head on the sidelines! He couldn’t understand the Spurs game! Wasn’t he the one who was about to give up after being beaten? Why did the opponent seem to have given up!

I can’t understand this game!

When did my rookie become so irritable? Why did he practice so much strength? His shooting in the fourth quarter was so inaccurate! It was all about inside scoring and free throws, and what on earth was Popovich thinking!

I don’t understand!

This NBA question is so difficult!

However, with a 9-point lead, seeing that Raheem, Jason Terry, Muhammad, and Ratliff were all physically ready to play, Coach Kruger called a timeout and replaced all the main players!

This substitution coincided with Liu Mang's return to his outside play style. He had been making strong breakthroughs just now, but Liu Mang, who was struggling inside, suddenly made a wild shot from the outside, catching Stephen Jackson and Daniels off guard and scoring two three-pointers in a row.

, helping the Eagles widen the point difference to 15 points in one fell swoop.

The Spurs gave up completely and replaced Amar Macaskill, the water cooler keeper who averaged 5 minutes per game.

Just like that, Liu Mang went berserk, the Spurs didn't want to fight back at all, and the fourth quarter ended inexplicably.

In the end, the Hawks defeated the Spurs 110-92 by 18 points and won their sixth consecutive victory!

Liu Mang scored 21 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists in the final quarter, and finished the game with 33 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks and 3 steals, leading the Eagles to beat the Spurs at home!

A win was a win, but Liu Mang felt that it was a pity that he was not able to compete with Duncan for one or two times in such a powerful state!

Popovich, this old fox, is definitely up to something!

…

…

Never mind Liu Mang’s displeasure, and never mind Coach Kruger’s confusion and madness, the Eagles have won 6 consecutive games!

The second six-game winning streak this season is a gratifying event for Coca-Cola.

With 41 wins and 16 losses, after the game with the Spurs, the Eagles' record has tied with the Spurs! Second only to the Kings with 42 wins and 15 losses!

Liu Mang is making headlines again!

The first player among the rookies in 2001 to score 30, 10, 5 in a single game!

He is also the only player among the rookies after 2000 who can score 30, 10, 5 in a single game! Including second-year players, no player has ever performed like this!

If Eagles fans have heard of skateboard shoes, they will definitely yell at the bar while drinking: How can I not be happy...

Only then did the fans realize that this rookie in our family has a good physical fitness. Although he can't jump that high, he still wants to dunk with all his energy. The fans like this optimistic mentality of dunking. Although

Got hit twice by Duncan...

The fans were surprised by Liu Mang, mainly because of his strength in the fourth quarter. It happened that Liu Mang was tested for urine in this game, and there was nothing wrong. Even though he peed in a place surrounded by mirrors, he was caught by someone.

I was a little embarrassed to stare at my pee behind my back, but there was nothing wrong with the urine test.

This makes the fans very happy, but they are a little confused, why are their rookies not so good at beating others? Or are the Spurs' substitutes too incompetent?

Taking into account Liu Mang's performance throughout the season, fans, experts, and the media have come to the unanimous conclusion that the Spurs are weak! Not even with a rampaging rookie!

…

"Look who that is! He's sneaky."

"I don't know. Is it a thief? Should I call the police?"

"It's okay. If he dares to steal anything, I'll kill him! I will protect you."

"Darling, you are so brave!"

"..."

"..."

At around seven o'clock in the morning on the second day of the game against the Spurs, Liu Mang got up to have breakfast and then train. As soon as he walked out of the suite and went to have breakfast upstairs, he heard a couple making abusive remarks on the balcony downstairs.

I curiously looked towards the door of the apartment and saw a tall man standing silently.

"..." You guys downstairs should go fight with him! I don't think I'll beat you to death!

But how did this guy...find his way here?

No, this guy is too weird. Why is he coming here so early in the morning? Even if he wants to come, just give him a call!

Forget it, it’s still a company after all… The NBA is considered a big company!
