From today on is the king

Chapter 6 6. The magical three-pointer!
Pause back, the Rockets have the ball.

Francis is going to scold his mother, the Eagles are forcing him to death!The inside line is simply an iron barrel formation!
Muhammad, Ratliff, two iron-blooded muscular men, the "lucky rookie" who made Francis look angry also shrank in, guarding from the free throw line, completely ignoring the three-pointer, and there was a backup shooting guard of the 96 golden generation squatting beside him.

Knowing that he was in the iron-blooded age of the early [-]s, Liu Mang instantly calmed down. The best three-pointer this year is Reggie Miller. It’s not that Liu Mang looks down on Reggie Miller, but because three-pointers are not taken seriously these days, and there are not so many players who practice three-pointers. At least point guards, except for Nash, Mike Bibby and other first-line stars, most of them don’t shoot three-pointers.

These days, even Reggie Miller, who is the strongest three-pointer, only averaged 2.8 three-pointers per game in the strongest year of his career. In most years, he averaged around 1.5 three-pointers per game. In Liu Mang's original era, the average three-pointer per game was not a point guard, but a center!

In Liu Mang’s era, a point guard who didn’t throw seven or eight three-pointers per game was ashamed to call himself a point guard. Stephen Curry directly averaged 12 three-pointers per game in the later stage, and averaged 5 three-pointers per game in the best year.

Liu Mang still knows Francis very well. After all, he was Yao Ming's teammate at the beginning of his career, and he is honored as the boss of Francis by domestic fans.

Boss, if the shot is accurate, what is the name of the boss...

Francis really wanted to be like the opponent and made a three-pointer directly.

Just do whatever comes to your mind, this is Francis, who directly pulls up a three-point shot...

"bang"

The sound of iron strikes was the norm, and Ratliff beat Eddie Griffin for a defensive rebound.

The Eagles had too much of an inside advantage. Francis felt coach Rudy Tomjanovich's murderous eyes on the sidelines. Then he remembered that his outside shooting percentage was less than [-]%, and quickly turned back to defend.

Emmanuel advanced to the frontcourt, Liu Mang opened up space outside the 45-degree three-point line, and Rahim sat in the low post to ask for the ball for singles.

Raheem's body is too good, 2 meters tall, a proper large small forward, much taller than Kenny Thomas, who defended him, and squeezed Kenny Smith into the three-second zone in two or three shots.

Francis watched Liu Mang run back very depressed, you are a point guard!If you don't touch the ball every time, you're still a point guard!

Francis took Kevin Cato's serve and advanced to the frontcourt, and then almost got so angry that he shot it directly. Fortunately, he held back, otherwise he would probably be scolded bloody by the coach again.

Francis looked at Liu Mang, who was probably two meters away from him, and was furious.

Once again, Liu Mang retreated to the free throw line to defend. That's right, Liu Mang is defending Francis as the future little emperor. Anyway, whether it is Francis or the little emperor, he is unstoppable. He is not a player of the same level at all!This physical fitness is crushing for him.

As for the sudden flash of steals just now, for a ball handler of Francis' level, it was considered lucky once. If he really wanted to press close to him like Klay Thompson, Liu Mang estimated that he would be hit to death.

Not to mention, the defensive method that Popovich thought of in the future is really good for the athletic outside line with poor shooting ability. Francis has no choice but to dare to shoot outside. Generally speaking, the rhythm of catching and shooting three-pointers is the best. If you shoot three-pointers while dribbling, most people need to adjust. After all, not everyone can fly like McGrady, and not everyone has the capital to make waves like McGrady.

Catch and shoot is different. First of all, the rhythm is good, and second, even if the opponent pounces on you when you pick up the ball and prepare to shoot, you can still dribble away.

So even the best three-pointer so far like Reggie Miller is still the first choice for catch and shoot.

However, for Francis, Marbury, Carter, McGrady, Baron Davis...and a bunch of outsiders, defense is nothing!
Shrinking the iron barrel array is nothing!

Francis rushed inside with the explosive bag in his arms...

Liu Mang watched Francis wearing a red Rockets jersey rushing in like an angry bull. If this was the world of running men, there would definitely be red flames burning beside him...

Although Liu Mang is not actually a professional basketball player, at least at this moment he is!He knew he couldn't let Francis just rush into the inside line like that, he couldn't get out of the way!Even if Ratliff and Muhammad were to get out of the way, they would probably be buckled by Francis riding directly!Francis rushed up, unless it was O'Neill, otherwise even Mutombo and Ben Wallace could only become the background when they came here!
Liu Mang gritted his teeth and pushed towards Francis.

At the moment of contact, Liu Mang was really like being pushed by a bull. He was not considered strong, and Francis is the most physically fit point guard in the NBA.
Can't stop it!At most, Liu Mang hindered Francis for half a second, forcing Francis to change direction, because he directly knocked Liu Mang and Francis himself would probably get an offensive foul.

But just this half a second is enough, Emmanuel and Muhammad have double-teamed.

Francis looked at the basket, and Ratliff was like a patron saint, covering Eddie Griffin and Kevin Cato. The two had difficulty getting around to catch the ball, and they were afraid of Ratliff's big elbow.

Francis felt so desperate!The strength gap between the two teams is indeed too great!Especially inside, after Olajuwon was traded to the Raptors by the Rockets, the inside of the Rockets was over. When Francis first entered the NBA, Olajuwon was still there.And those two insiders were really timid, and they didn't dare to make a move just now.

Francis forced a shot and missed.

Raheem grabbed a defensive rebound and was going to pass it to Emmanuel to advance, but he saw that a teammate was about to go down. Of course, this person was Liu Mang.

Seeing this, Rahim directly threw the ball forward.

But this strength... As expected of a small forward, he threw too much!When Liu Mang rushed to the front court to receive the ball, he couldn't stop at all, and was about to fly out of the baseline!

At this time, Liu Mang subconsciously made a shooting motion, and after flying up to catch the ball, he pushed the ball to the basket...

Seeing Liu Mang coming down quickly, the fans immediately cheered, thinking that there was going to be a counter-dunk dunk. Although they didn't think how violent a Chinese player's dunk could be, it should be no problem for a player with a height of 1.9 meters to dunk.

However, the direction Liu Mang was going down was actually the bottom corner, and Rahim's pass was also the bottom corner, and the pass was so big!

When the fans saw that Liu Mang was about to throw the ball, they already began to sigh, thinking that it was a mistake, but they didn't expect to throw the ball when he lost his balance!
"Swish"

Under the astonished gazes of the people, Liu Mang's push shot that lost his balance after flying up to catch the ball made a hollow hit!

The scene was silent, this is too exaggerated!
Even the camera uncle who was knocked down by Liu Reck on the sidelines was stunned when he saw Liu Reck's miraculous goal. Liu Reckon had no choice but to get up by himself, rubbing the painful place where he was bumped.

At this time, the DJ on the scene was the first to react, and shouted loudly: "woooooooooool...Ai Ai Ai...Ace...Liu!"

The scene exploded again!
Liu Mang came up and shot three times, blowing up the scene all three times!
