Falling behind by three points in the first quarter is not a big problem.

Liu Mang only played 8 minutes in the first quarter. Coach Kruger rarely replaced Liu Mang at the eighth minute of the first quarter, allowing Jason Terry to play with McGrady for a few minutes in the first quarter.

Jason Terry, who couldn't hold himself back, went up and made a wild move, competing with Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady, Crawford and Nowitzki to see who was more wild.

But with an offensive rating of 99, Nowitzki, who may be the most offensive power forward in NBA history, performed so explosively.

Liu Mang was surprised when he saw Nowitzki's 17-point performance in a single quarter! He was in great shape!

Liu Mang himself was also in good condition. He took six shots in the first eight minutes and his hit rate was as high as 66.6%...

When it was time to rest between sessions, Liu Mang thought about it and roughly understood what was going on.

Nowitzki, like Liu Mang, played in the World Championships in the summer, and Nowitzki fought hard in every game. Without fighting, the German team had no hope of winning. So when Nowitzki returned to Dallas and started training,

Just like in the original time and space, Odom joined the Dream Nine team in 2010 to play center and was in excellent form in the 10-11 season. James in the 12-13 season started the season in far better form after playing in the London Olympics than in the 11-12 season. Kobe Bryant

After playing in the London Olympics in 2012, he had the highest offensive performance of his career in the 12-13 season. Especially at the beginning of the season, his shooting percentage was as high as 50%. Nowitzki also exploded at the beginning of this season!

After Liu Mang finished the first quarter, he also discovered this problem. His start was better than he expected!

It's not that my ability has become stronger, but that I immediately enter the best state at the beginning of the season.

Liu Mang played 8 minutes in the first quarter and scored 9 points on 4 of 6 shots. His hand was hot.

Nowitzki's side finished the first quarter with 17 points on 7 of 11 shots, and his hand was also very hot.

Liu Mang probably also understood why the Mavericks were so fierce in the regular season in the original time and space, and Nowitzki was so sluggish in the playoffs. Nowitzki was also a problem for the Mavericks in the playoffs early on.

James' 12-13 playoffs were his first postseason data since his third grade. His efficiency was lower than that of the regular season, and much lower. Although the Heat won the championship, the Heat had no playoff performance since the Eastern Conference Finals.

He was dominant. He was dominant in the first two rounds because the opponent was really weak.

Odom was expected to be able to guard Nowitzki in the playoffs of the 10-11 season, but Odom had the worst playoff performance of his career...

Entering the state too early will definitely have an impact on the playoffs, and the biggest impact may be on physical fitness.

But... this is not important to Liu Mang. He has no problem in this regard. What is important now is how to stop Nowitzki?

Double team?

It's unreliable. The ideal state of singles tactics is that if the star player scores two goals, the opponent will start double-teaming, and they can distribute the ball. The four perimeter players of the Mavericks are all open shooting experts.

Since if it can't be stopped, Liu Mang is also a little itchy by Tracy McGrady's aggressive style of play this year, so let's start!

…

Coach Kruger had a headache when he saw Mitaka start to mess up in the first game, and the tactics he arranged did not work out at all.

Mitaka was so excited that he seemed to have forgotten that his teammates were no longer their former teammates!

Battier and David Lee, who rotated together with Rasheed Wallace, didn't know how to play. Should they run? Or grab rebounds? They didn't have good offensive rebounds!

Rasheed Wallace is willing to compete for boards, but he has never been a good rebounder. It is okay if there is another big man blocking the position. Besides, he is old and beautiful. He is another year older and not as cool as before.

.

So Coach Kruger could only replace two big men who averaged 10 rebounds per game...

It's not like Marion has never played rough ball before. During the Suns' seven-second offense, he was one of the two core players inside, but he has never experienced such a play from his teammates!

Both double-teams are regarded as open shots!

In the past, in the Western Conference, Marion often played against the Lakers. It was already strange for the guy who was No. 8 at that time. The Hawks had three co-writers?

How on earth did this team win three consecutive championships? I don’t understand!

Under double-teaming, Mitaka didn't pass the ball, and took turns wandering around in pairs!

These are not the key. The key is that the efficiency can only be said to be okay. The Mavericks did a good job in double-teaming and switching defenses.

More importantly, he couldn't guard the Mavericks!

McGrady couldn't guard Crawford. McGrady and Marion both tried and couldn't guard Nowitzki.

The Eagles were forced to double attack and use high-speed rotation defense, but the Mavericks showed their form in the first quarter... and couldn't stop it!

…

Lost!

For the first time in four years, the Eagles lost their season opener!

Liu Mang made 11 of 20 shots and scored 30 points, and he was in good shape; McGrady made 9 of 22 shots and scored 31 points, and he was in pretty good shape; Jason Terry made 7 of 16 shots and scored 19 points, three Eagles combined

80 points, very violent, and the Eagles also scored 114 points.

But they lost, 114 to 119. The Eagles lost to the Mavericks in their first game!

The Hawks always had hope of winning, the Triple Eagles also played well, the Mavericks went all out, and Nowitzki was in excellent form, but they couldn't completely widen the point difference because Liu Mang was in really good form in singles.

But in turn, Liu Mang's efficiency declined little by little, and he was unable to make consistent contributions as before.

McGrady's efficiency dropped a lot as he shot. If it weren't for the many free throws, he wouldn't have scored 31 points.

The more important key is not to guard against it!

In the first game of the season, the opponent scored 119 points!

It was very exciting when playing, but with 1 minute left, Liu Mang was 11 points behind. Liu Mang woke up and scored two consecutive three-pointers to increase his score to 30 points, but he could only narrow the point difference to 5 points.

, and finally unfortunately lost to the Mavericks.

Nowitzki made 16 of 31 shots, which was on par with Liu Mang in terms of efficiency, but he scored 42 points, and he drove the whole team!

…

Big problem!

It seemed that the game was evenly matched. The Eagles were only 11 points behind at most, and a comeback was possible in another minute or two.

Unlike the previous lineup, Liu Mang failed to drive his teammates to fully utilize their abilities!

This is the first time that the Eagles didn't integrate into the team immediately after signing a real signing!

The most important thing about this issue is that this new lineup did not integrate as quickly as the previous signings.

I lost the first game. This is not important. What is important is that after the game, I summarized the game and found many problems.

In terms of talent, even the Lakers team with the three giant players of Kobe, Yao Ming, and Gasol is not necessarily more talented than Liu Mang and Tracy McGrady plus Marion and Kwame Brown.

But this time Liu Mang failed to fully utilize the talents of his teammates.

The talents are different, but the mentality is still the same as before, and the playing style needs to change again.

This time Liu Mang did not take the initiative to seek change, but accepted the challenge for the first time. He really wanted to change because of his teammates!

After losing, Liu Mang immediately understood the team's problems. During the game, it seemed that there was always a chance to overtake the score. Liu Mang played calmly and patiently. He only took 20 shots and got the score.

30 points and 6 assists.

Liu Mang discovered many problems after the game. After losing, he had to make a thorough summary.

Fortunately, it was exposed in the first scene and Liu Mang was able to find a solution in time!
