The Eagles are always a clean slate in the playoffs.

The Lakers are playing against the Suns. The Lakers are honing their defense and the Suns are desperately attacking. The Lakers seem to have a huge advantage, but the point difference cannot be widened because they are prone to habitual arrogance and are caught up by the opponent if they relax a little.

, Fortunately, the Lakers are stable because they have Yao and others and good defense.

The Heat beat the Nets, a tactical battle.

Next, the Spurs will play the Mavericks, a battle between Duncan and Nowitzki. The strength of the Spurs and the Mavericks is not far apart. It will definitely be a game like Mars hitting the earth. Although the process may be ugly because of the relationship between the Spurs, but

The duel between Nowitzki and Duncan is still very attractive and will definitely be fierce.

But the Hawks beat the Cavaliers.

At first glance, James had 12 points and 4 rebounds in the half and 25 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists in the game, which looked pretty good.

However, James made 8 of 29 shots...

He worked hard to score 25 points, but in the end he had no choice but to shoot from across the three-point line. He really got two long-range three-pointers, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten 20 points.

In the first game between the Hawks and the Cavaliers, David Stern watched the first half and felt like he was going to be depressed...

West Spurs, East Eagles, it’s driving people crazy!

The Eagles, in particular, are both loved and hated.

The first round, which was originally thought to be nothing to watch, turned out to be a big upset for the Hawks in the first round, allowing the Pacers to win one game, which resulted in very good ratings for the next four games.

But in the second round, in this high-profile series, the Eagles fully demonstrated their dominance, tactical variability, and star characteristics, leaving the Cavaliers with no chance at all!

Prince's defense against shooting, Tracy McGrady's defense against breakthroughs, Liu Mang's ability to double-attack, cover-up, and rebound, the Hawks' mobility under the basket...

Liu Mang made 8 of 17 shots and scored 23 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 1 block. McGrady made 9 of 20 shots and scored 25 points, 3 rebounds, 9 assists and 3 blocks. The two led the Eagles to 107 points in a single game.

point.

The Cavaliers, on the other hand, only scored 83 points. The Eagles lost 107 to 83. In the first game, the Cavaliers didn't even know how to play!

James is also very good. No matter how he plays, starting from the second grade, he has scored more than 20 points, seven or eight rebounds and several assists in every game.

But today, James was sleepwalking throughout the game, hesitating when dribbling. He only made one hit after two or three sudden attempts. He didn't dare to pass to the outside when he rushed in. The only ones who passed out were Larry Hughes or Newbell who didn't shoot.

Teammates who are capable and capable of shooting are all targeted by Liu Mang, Korver, Iguodala and other opponents who are good at helping and defending.

Just like Popovich exposed the weaknesses of James during the Heat's Big Three period and James was unable to respond, James is now in the same situation, and it's even worse!

James' four-step layup at the basket was also not easy to work. Liu Mang and Mike Woodson discussed the defense. On the outside, they mainly used Popovich's Spurs system defense. On the inside, Rasheed Hualai was used.

The Celtics used the method used by the Celtics' Big Three to deal with James. Although James still scored 8 goals, James missed 21!

During the Heat's Big Three era, James only had a poor mid-range shot and was considered top-notch from three-point range.

Although the current three-pointer has been greatly improved, James' three-point rating of 80 is still close to the first-class level. He is far from the most accurate one who had a 43% shooting rate during the Heat's Big Three period.

It's still a long way off, the CIC and Heat were just worse than the big three during their time, and now there is no CIC.

Anyone watching the game could see that James was doubting life.

Just like the Eagles' coaching staff's worries about premature promotion, James is very confident. Since it was determined that he would enter the playoffs in fifth place, he has been studying how to deal with the Eagles and thought of many ways to do it.

How to deal with Liu Mang and how to deal with Tracy McGrady? After discussing with Mike Brown, Big Z also instructed Big Z to study how Yao Ming dealt with the Hawks inside. In the first round, James never doubted whether he could advance to the second round.

, so while thinking about how to deal with the 76ers, I am also thinking about how to deal with the Eagles.

But during the game, James found that the method he thought of to deal with Liu Mang was all in vain. He was more prepared, more targeted, and more complete!

Moreover, his biggest weakness was caught and magnified infinitely. Apart from holding the ball and digging into the basket, using his good touch under the basket to score, he had almost no solution!

The game turned into garbage time in the fourth quarter. When James was replaced, the fans at the scene felt that this third-year player was so pitiful... they couldn't help but give him cheers of encouragement...

It’s just that when James heard this call of comfort, he doubted life even more...

Even rival fans felt sorry for him, and James felt so miserable...

…

…

Full preparation, excellent execution brought about by the tacit understanding cultivated over the past two years, plus Liu Mang and Tracy McGrady were both better than James now. Now the Eastern Conference is about to be destroyed by Liu Mang's leadership. Liu Mang

If McGrady and Tracy McGrady were brought alone to lead the team, they would not be worse than James' fifth place in the Eastern Conference... and other factors combined, Liu Mang made James explode in the first game.

Liu Mang has been preparing for how to play against James in the playoffs from a long time ago, and based on the current time and space, the two men's skills have changed and they are constantly fine-tuning.

Not just using known methods to defend them, but all he can remember is that general. Liu Mang has been discussing with Mike Woodson, one of the top three defensive assistants in the league and possibly even the best at present. Liu Mang

Using the concepts he knew, coupled with Mike Woodson's defensive knowledge, and some new methods that Liu Mang came up with after learning technical and tactical knowledge, after a long period of planning and improvement, planning and improvement...

…

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I have considered and pondered over and over again. Until last night when I saw how the Lakers dealt with the Suns, they were still strengthening their defensive tactics against James.

James has done a good job, but compared with Liu Mang, a scheming gangster, the preparations James made look like a child's game strategy...

After the game, ESPN made a very good comment on the first playoff showdown between the two Chinese and American stars that their TV station strongly supported.

ESPN reporter and NBA beauty columnist Cassidy Harberth wrote a long article after the game. She is from Ohio and a die-hard James fan. The core content of his long article is as follows:

"The playoffs between the Hawks and the Cavaliers lost all suspense from the first game. Ace used the experience brought by playing two more years of college basketball and two more years of playing in the NBA to exploit all of LeBron's weaknesses.

Now, LeBron has exposed all his weaknesses in this game. He is not good at shooting, not good at how to make adjustments when encountering difficulties, and not good at how to solve problems when the extra steps under the basket cannot be used.

He is still too young.

Ace has been playing with adults for seven years, and LeBron is only in his third year. It is undeniable that Ace is much better than LeBron. Ace is the greatest regular season MVP in history, but LeBron still has a long way to go.

Gotta go.

In this series between LeBron and Ace, fans don’t have to expect a very special result in this series with the mentality that LeBron can beat Ace. LeBron needs to pay tuition. He can see himself clearly in this series.

Weaknesses and then improve them, just like Ace. Ace could only shoot three-pointers and draw fouls at first. Now Ace is one of the best technical players in the league.

The Hawks' strength against the Cavaliers is undoubtedly overwhelming. Ace plays so seriously because he regards LeBron as a true friend and wants to teach LeBron that the playoffs are not that simple. Just using referees is not enough.

LeBron has improved a lot this year, but he still needs to improve. I think this is why Ace is so serious.

I look forward to making great progress next time LeBron is on the playoff stage again."

…

An ESPN reporter wrote a long article specifically for this series. After the news was released on May 8, the second day of the series between the Hawks and the Cavaliers, it triggered a great response.

ESPN is a rare neutral article. Even if this reporter is a die-hard James fan, the words and tone are very neutral.

After all, both of them are stars that ESPN strongly supports.

Not only is he neutral, his suggestions are also very pertinent.

When Liu Mang saw this article, he felt strange. He just wanted to kill James. He didn't expect that the American reporter's reading comprehension ability was comparable to that of a Chinese teacher! He actually saw that he wanted to guide James.

This idea he didn't even know...

So...at noon, Liu Mang rested at home all morning. At noon, he went to the arena to eat a nutritious meal to prepare for the afternoon training. When reporters surrounded him for an interview, Liu Mang said: "LeBron and I are brothers. We

We train together every summer. When we met in Indiana before, he asked me what he should improve. At that time, I didn't answer. At that time, we were hitting the historical record. Now I have told him what he should improve.

"

…

…

James looked at the morning and evening newspapers in front of him with mixed feelings.

After losing to the Eagles yesterday, his mentality almost collapsed.

I was so confused all day today that I didn't even dare to watch the news.

But James is a child born in the 1980s. He likes to surf the Internet and contact news, and is easily influenced by public opinion. He finally saw these two newspapers, and he saw them together.

I saw ESPN’s column and Liu Mang’s interview...
