"700."

Liu Mang posted a picture on his Facebook.

There is nothing else written, just a picture.

But anyone who follows the NBA knows what it means.

No one was surprised to see Liu Mang being so direct. This is Liu Mang. He will directly say what he wants and then do it.

The Spurs came to Atlanta on the morning of the game against the Hawks. The league will never be very friendly to the Spurs, at least until the Spurs' popularity increases. The league will not be so friendly to the Spurs.

Last night, the Spurs were beaten 85-77 by the Bulls, and today they have to play back-to-back with the Hawks.

Generally speaking, the Hawks and Spurs are facing similar situations now, and they are both in a state of limited physical fitness.

If the Lakers and Celtics like to openly rob, openly offend other teams, no team will be willing to trade with them in the future, and Popovich likes to play dirty.

Popovich did not respond directly to Liu Mang's goal of scoring 700 points, and also prohibited the players on the team from expressing their opinions on the matter in interviews, as if they did not know about it.

But during the evening game, Liu Mang felt the ill will from the Spurs.

Artest defends alone, Parker and Ginobili help defend Liu Mang from mid-range. Duncan squats inside to guard Liu Mang and attacks the basket. Liu Mang does not have the ball in his hand. Artest fights with Liu Mang. Liu Mang

Moving position, other outside lines came to block Liu Mang's position, Liu Mang went inside, and stayed close to each other in the middle distance.

When Liu Mang has the ball in his hand, at least two people in front of him will double-team him without restriction!

The Spurs are not a team that has much desire for regular season results. Anyway, they cannot win less than 50 games, cannot win the first place in the Western Conference, and cannot obtain the full home court advantage in the Western Conference playoffs. Their goal is to win 50 games.

Having the home court advantage in the first round is enough, losing to a disgusting opponent doesn't matter at all.

Liu Mang risked his life and only took 19 shots. Faced with the Spurs' crazy focus on defense, Liu Mang made 14 free throws and made 11 of 14 free throws, but he only made 6 of 19 shots.

, including 4 of 12 three-pointers, totaling 27 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds.

Liu Mang was surrounded when he entered the paint. Although he got a lot of free throws, his own touch was exploded and his shooting rate will exceed 30%.

The key to Brand Gui's victory lies in the other two Eagles. McGrady made 11 of 23 shots and scored 31 points. Jason Terry scored 25 points on 9 of 15 shots. Kwame Brown and Marion combined to grab 29 rebounds.

Tracy McGrady and Jason Terry scored a lot of points because when Liu Mang was fighting, they took advantage of Liu Mang to attract the defense, grab the offensive rebound and pass it out, giving them a second chance to attack.

The Spurs' defense against Liu Mang really made it difficult for Liu Mang to take more shots. If you include the 7 offensive opportunities used by 14 free throws, Liu Mang played 36 minutes and actually took 26 shots.

Less, but compared to the past dozen games, Liu Mang's effective shots in this game were significantly less.

But the Spurs' defense made their rebounding and defense against other outsiders except Liu Mang very poor. The Hawks took 95 shots, which was much higher than the 83 shots they allowed their opponents to take per game this season.

Average.

The Hawks easily defeated the Spurs 108-91.

…

Only scored 27 points!

This was beyond Liu Mang's expectation.

Originally, Liu Mang thought that this game with the Spurs would be the easiest game for him to score high points. He felt that the Spurs would definitely try their best to win them. After all, the Spurs must be aiming to win the championship.

But he didn't expect that the Spurs would prevent him from scoring high points regardless of winning or losing!

Liu Mang was replaced in the second minute of the fourth quarter because the Eagles were already leading by 25 points, leading 91-66 at the time. When he was replaced, he saw Duncan smiling evilly at him.

From Duncan's warm and innocent smile, Liu Mang felt the "dignity of a background emperor." As a background emperor, of course he least wanted to be the background. No one wanted to be the background all the time.

Duncan was the one who helped defend Liu Mang most actively, and Liu Mang got 6 free throws from Duncan.

The good news is that the game was won, and the Eagles won a fourth consecutive victory, briefly starting a winning streak.

But the task suddenly became very difficult!

With three games left, there is still 127 points left, which means you have to average 42.4 points per game in the remaining three games to get 700 points!

After Duncan caused a big problem for Liu Mang's goal of scoring 700 points in a single month, he coolly took his teammates back to San Antonio and played a wave of five consecutive away games. The Spurs were also exhausted.

The most annoying thing for the Spurs is that they either have four games in 5 days, 5 games in 8 days, and they are consecutive away games or consecutive home games, or they have a long rest period. The Spurs, who are now 31 wins and 16 losses, only have two games left this month.

The game is on, No. 30 and No. 31 back-to-back, but they have three rest days in the next three days...

Popovich would rather not have such long rest days and would rather spread out the schedule. They have too many three or four days off, but there are 17 back-to-backs throughout the season.

Liu Mang was tricked by Popovich, so he had no choice but to admit it. The day after playing against the Spurs, he immediately flew to the bitterly cold north with the team. Tomorrow, the 27th, he will play an away game.

Challenge the Toronto Raptors, led by the King of the North, Darko Milicic, as the core of Toronto's young trio.

…

…

"well……"

Kwame Brown let out a plaintive sigh, he missed O'Neal so much!

When O'Neal was in the Eastern Conference, Lakers fans would vote for Kwame Brown and not want O'Neal to be in the All-Stars.

But when O'Neal left, Kwame Brown became the target of public criticism. Non-Eagles fans would never vote for Kwame Brown, but chose to vote for Kwame Brown's opponent.

Competing with Kwame Brown for the Eastern Conference All-Star center position is Dwight Howard, whose popularity has soared since O'Neal left the Eastern Conference this year.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Howard’s laughter-loving personality, coupled with the support of the league, allowed him to win 1.51 million votes, beating Kwame Brown’s 1.39 million votes.

Won the 2007 Las Vegas East All-Star center position.

Kwame Brown's streak of consecutive All-Star center selections has come to an end.

"It doesn't matter, Kwame, you will definitely make the All-Star substitute team." Marion comforted.

"I hope so, but with Sean here, my chances of being on the All-Star bench aren't that high." Kwame Brown said sadly.

"Then let's go in together!" Marion was in a good mood and very confident.

Even though he looks like that, he doesn't have a twisted personality like an alien. Marion's mentality is very messy.

When Liu Mang saw someone going to comfort Kwame Brown, he didn't say anything. He was depressed. He only scored 27 points yesterday. It was too miserable. He would play against the Raptors tomorrow... He had a very ominous premonition!

Fortunately, there is some comfort today, the All-Star lineup was announced today.

With 2.96 million votes, Liu Mang successfully overtook Kevin Garnett with 2.57 million votes and won the All-Star vote title thanks to his recent crazy performance.

McGrady won the other All-Star guard position in the Eastern Conference with 2.21 million votes.

Garnett received the second-highest number of votes in this year's All-Star Game and was selected as the Eastern All-Star forward. James received 2.18 million votes and won the other Eastern All-Star forward position.

In the Western Conference, Yao Ming won the Western Conference All-Star votes with 2.51 million votes, occupying the Western Conference All-Star center position for five consecutive years.

As for Western Conference forwards, Duncan continued to be selected as an All-Star with 2.06 million votes, occupying this position since his rookie season.

Gasol was selected to the All-Star for the second time in his career and became an All-Star for the first time. With 1.41 million votes, he defeated Carmelo Anthony who had 1.3 million votes and won the All-Star forward position.

In terms of guards, Kobe and Iverson were jointly selected as All-Stars. Kobe had 2.33 million votes and Iverson had 2.19 million votes.

Looking at Kobe and Duncan, the two "nails" who have occupied the two All-Star positions in the Western Conference since 1998, Liu Mang really wanted to hack them and keep occupying the position.

After Liu Mang was tricked by Duncan yesterday, he felt a sense of déjà vu, which made him angry.

What surprised Liu Mang the most was that the third-placed Eastern Conference defender was Rondo!

Rondo received 690,000 votes, which was more than Kidd's 650,000 votes, Wade's 490,000 votes after injury, and Terry's 410,000 votes!

Carter was really cool, and he was cool with Kidd. The conflict between the two continued to escalate, which had a huge impact on their popularity.

Maimang and his team once again joined forces to be selected as All-Stars, which is a small consolation for Liu Mang. In the next three games, he will have to score more points.

Toronto is a bitterly cold place, so it's better to stay in a hotel in the winter. The schedule is tight recently, and the rest of the Eagles have no idea of ​​going out in the snow.

They all stayed in the hotel to rest.

Liu Mang didn't watch the video or anything. Rest is very important. The rest of the Hawks are physically tired. McGrady, Jason Terry, Kwame Brown and others are in the middle of the season. They feel tired from playing so many games in the past few years.

It has accumulated and exploded at this stage. The first- and second-year players took on important roles for the first time after Prince and Korver left. Adult basketball is not on the same level as college basketball. Liu Mang is psychological.

If you are tired from sleeping, read a book to relieve yourself.

…

The announcement of the All-Stars is a very important event for the NBA and has become a hotly discussed topic among fans.

Kwame Brown or Howard, Milicic, and Chandler each have their own opinions on who is more worthy of the All-Star center position. Relatively speaking, although many fans voted for Howard, there are arguments that belittle Howard.

More.

Picking Howard and then attacking Howard...fans are always so pissed off.

On the night of the 27th, when the media and fans were hotly discussing who was worthy of the All-Stars and who was not, a little-known reporter, Wojnawaski from Google Sports, broke a shocking news!

"Grant Hill and Magic are negotiating a buyout"

Later, it was revealed that "the Magic have opened up other teams' rights to communicate with Grant Hill."

This news came suddenly. Although Grant Hill is old and has experienced countless injuries since the new century, new fans don't think he is very good. They also feel that his contract has delayed the Magic, which has always been outstanding in the draft.

In the 1990s, Grant Hill was extremely famous. Even Jordan, who had won 72 games and was the only player to win 70 games in history, could not steal Grant Hill's All-Star votes.

Old fans still like Grant Hill very much. It's already 2007. Grant Hill's All-Star votes still rank fourth among the Eastern Conference forwards, higher than Raheem, O'Neal Jr., Bosh and others, which is enough.
