6. The magic three-pointer!
The Rockets' ball rights are back.
Francis is going to curse, the Eagles are forcing him to death! The inside line is simply an iron barrel formation!
Mohammed, Ratliff, two iron-blooded and muscular men, the "luck rookie" who made Frances angry, also contracted in, guarding at the free throw line, regardless of three points at all, and there was a substitute shooting guard of the 96 Golden Generation squatting next to it.
After Liu Mang learned that he was in the iron-blooded era at the beginning of the century, he instantly expressed his calmness. The best three-pointer this year is Reggie Miller. It’s not that Liu Mang looked down on Reggie Miller, but because three-pointers are not valued at all these days, and there are not so many players who practice three-pointers. At least, most of the first-tier players such as Nash and Mike Bibby do not shoot three-pointers.
These days, even Reggie Miller, who has the strongest three-pointers, has only averaged 2.8 three-pointers per game in his strongest career, and most of the years he averaged about 1.5 three-pointers per game. In Liu Mang's original era, those who averaged 1.5 three-pointers per game were not the point guard, but the center!
In Liu Mang's era, a point guard averaged seven or eight three-pointers per game and was embarrassed to say that he was the point guard. Stephen Curry averaged 12 three-pointers per game in the later period, and in the best year, he averaged 5 three-pointers per game.
Liu Mang still knows Francis very well. After all, he was Yao Ming's teammate in the early days of his career and was respected by domestic fans as Boss Francis.
As the boss, if the shooting is accurate, what else can you call the boss...
Francis really wanted to make a three-pointer like the other party.
Do whatever you think of, this is Francis, who directly pulled out a three-pointer and shot...
"Clang"
The sound of iron shots is the norm, and Ratliff beat Eddie Griffin to grab the defensive rebounds.
The Hawks' inside advantage was too great. Francis felt the murderous gaze of coach Rudy Tomjanovic on the sidelines. Then he remembered his outside shooting percentage of less than 30%, and quickly turned around and returned to defense.
Emmanuor advanced to the frontcourt, Liu Mang opened up space outside the 45-degree three-point line, and Rahim sat down to the low post to ask for the ball to play singles.
Rahim has a very good figure, two meters and six meters tall, and is a large small forward, much taller than Kenny Thomas, who is defending him. He squeezed Kenny Smith into the three-second zone in just a few seconds. Since the Rockets left Olajuwon, the inside line is so weak that it makes people unable to believe that this is a traditional center-forward team. Rahim entered the basket completely unstoppable and forced Eddie Griffin and Kevin Cato to score 2 1.
Francis looked at Liu Mang running back with depression, you are a point guard! You don’t touch the offensive goal once, are you still a point guard!
Francis took Kevin Cato's serve and pushed it into the frontcourt, and then almost got so angry that he shot it directly. Fortunately, he held it back, otherwise he would probably be scolded by the coach again.
Francis looked at Liu Mang, who was probably two meters away from him, and was furious.
Liu Mang once again retreated directly to the free throw line to defend. Yes, Liu Mang treated Francis as the future little emperor to defend. Anyway, both Francis and the little emperor were irresistible to him. He was not a player at the same level at all! This physical fitness crushed him.
As for the steal that came to light inspiration just now, for a ball handler of Frances, he was lucky once. If he really wanted to press close like Klay Thompson, Liu Mang would probably be killed.
Not to mention, the defensive method that Popovich thought of in the future is really good for athletic outside with a slim shooting ability. Francis has no choice but to dare to shoot outside. Generally speaking, the rhythm of receiving and shooting three-pointers is the best. If he is using a three-pointer to shoot, most people need to adjust. In this adjustment, the opponent's defensive player will pounce directly on. At this time, he can't walk away and he will violate the rules. The passing may not be able to pass it out immediately. It is not a good idea to shoot strongly against defense. After all, not everyone is as wavering as McGrady, and not everyone has the capital to swing like McGrady.
It’s different when you catch the ball. First of all, the rhythm is good, and secondly, even if the opponent jumps up when he picks up the ball and prepares to shoot, he can still dribble away.
So even the best three-pointer like Reggie Miller is the first choice to catch and shoot.
But for Francis, Marbury, Carter, McGrady, Balang Davis, etc., etc., defense is nothing!
What is the shrinking iron barrel array?
Francis rushed into the inside with an explosive bag...
Liu Mang looked at Francis wearing a red Rockets jersey and rushed in like an angry bull. If this was the world of Running Man, there would definitely be a red flame burning beside him...
Although Liu Mang is not actually a professional basketball player, at least he is now! He knows that Francis can't just rush into the inside, and he can't get out of it! Even if there is an iron barrel formation composed of Ratliff and Mohammed, he will probably be detained by Francis directly on his ride! Francis rushed forward, unless it was O'Neal, even Mutombo and Ben Wallace came here and could only be the background!
Liu Mang gritted his teeth and pushed towards Frances.
The moment he contacted, Liu Mang was really like he was pushed by a bull. He was not strong at all, and Francis was the point guard with the best physical fitness in the NBA. This was like the Chinese defender who could not pass the half of the dribble against the American defender in international competitions, and he was completely crushed!
It can't be stopped! Liu Mang hindered Frances for at most half a second, forcing Frances to change direction, because he directly knocked Liu Mang Francis over, he probably would have to take an offensive foul.
But in just this half second, it was enough, Emmanuor and Muhammad had already come to double-team.
Francis looked at the basket, and Ratliff was like a patron saint, covering Eddie Griffin and Kevin Cato. Both of them had difficulty even coming around to catch the ball, and they were afraid of Ratliff's big elbow.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Francis feels so desperate! The gap between the two teams is indeed too big! Especially in the inside, after Olajuwon was traded by the Rockets to the Raptors, the Rockets' inside is over. When Francis first entered the NBA, Olajuwon was still there. Even if Olajuwon is old, no one dares to underestimate him. Now, the Hawks dare to use Ratliff to defend against the Rockets and two insides! And those two insides are really cowardly, and they don't dare to just start.
Francis missed a shot by force.
Rahim grabbed the defensive rebound and was about to pass it to Emmanuor to advance, but when he saw a teammate, he was about to get off. Of course, this person was Liu Mang, and the opponent shot quickly. This is the characteristic of Klay Thompson. He ran to the left corner of the frontcourt the moment Francis took the shot.
Seeing this, Rahim threw the ball directly into the frontcourt.
But this force... is worthy of being a small forward, so he threw it too much! Liu Mang couldn't stop when he rushed to the frontcourt and received the ball, and was about to fly out of the baseline!
At this time, Liu Mang subconsciously made a shooting move, and after rushing to catch the ball, he pushed the ball towards the basket...
When the fans at the scene saw Liu Mang getting off soon, they immediately started cheering, thinking that a counterattack dunk was going to happen. Although they didn't think that a Chinese player's dunk could be too violent, there should be no problem for a player who is about 1.9 meters tall to dunk a basket.
However, Liu Mang's direction of going down was actually the bottom corner, and Rahim's pass was actually the bottom corner, and it was so big!
When the fans saw that Liu Mang was about to fall out after receiving the ball, they began to sigh, thinking that it was a mistake, but they didn't expect that they actually threw the ball out when they lost their balance!
"Swish"
Amid people's astonished eyes, Liu Mang's push shot that lost balance after rushing to catch the ball made a hollow hit!
The scene was silent, it was so exaggerating!
Even the camera uncle who was knocked down by Liu Mang on the sidelines was stunned when he saw Liu Mang's magical goal. Liu Mang could only get up helplessly and rub the place where he was hit.
At this time, DJ at the scene was the first to react and shouted loudly: "wooooooooooool...Ai Ai Ai...Ai Si...Liu!"
The scene exploded again!
Liu Mang came up and shot three times, which detonated the scene three times!
