From today on is the king

Chapter 87 87. The eagle is about to collapse...

How to say how the Eagles players feel now.

The content of Liu Mang's interview has been released, the Eagles players are very silent, and the atmosphere in the locker room is strange.

Blame Liu Mang, this kid is just trying to brag about how good his teammates are, making the Pistons worthless.

Praise Liu reckless?
Oh my god, the Pistons are probably going crazy now, especially Stackhouse, who was named, and Ben Wallace, who Liu Mang said is useless except for rebounding. These two are nothing for the Eagles to deal with!
The teammates were suddenly speechless, but one guy had a greatly improved impression of Liu Mang.

"Haha, rookie, you did a good job. I think the guy on the other side is already mad!" Jason Terry himself has a big mouth. As the saying goes, it's not that every family doesn't enter every house. Jason Terry thinks that those who have this kind of "confidence" are the teammates he should have!
Coach Kruger was already desperate, and he calmed down after despair. The matter has come to this point, the most important thing is to play well!

……

……

At 12 pm Eastern Time on December 23, the game between the Eagles and the Pistons will start soon.

The game between the Eagles and the Pistons has not been paid much attention to by many people, and the national live broadcast is only given because these two teams are basically sure to be the top four teams in the Eastern Conference. It should be broadcast nationally.

Originally, there was not much to watch in this game. Although the two teams ranked first and second in the league, the two teams started the schedule relatively easily.

But now, because of the big mouth of a certain rookie, this game suddenly became a bit interesting.

It has always been something that the NBA likes to see veterans educate rookies. For example, Jordan, who just entered the NBA, was squeezed out by the smiling assassin Isaiah Thomas, and he did not pass the ball to Jordan during the All-Star Weekend, which has always been something that old fans love to talk about.

Originally, there was no conflict between the Pistons fans and the Eagles. The Eagles have never been the enemy of the Pistons. The peak periods of the two teams were not in the same era at all. The fans of the two teams have always enjoyed themselves.

But today, when the Eagles players came out, they were greeted with boos all over the sky.

Especially when Liu Mang came out, the boos were the loudest, and there were all kinds of abuse.

Liu Mang was mentally prepared early, but he couldn't bear it. He didn't expect the fans in the Motor City to be so popular. No wonder there would be an incident at the Palace of Auburn Hills later.

"Ace, you must be careful when you are interviewed next time, you are still a rookie, you are easy to be targeted..." Muhammad started working as a babysitter again.

Liu Mang listened honestly and nodded, as if he wasn't the one who spoke during the interview.

He had just been trained by Coach Kruger, read by Mr. Nanny for a long time, and just hid at the end of the bench when Jason Terry came again.

"Look at these fans, I just want to piss them off! We must win today! I can't see that you have such a character as a rookie, not bad." Jason Terry's rare recognition of hooligans.

Liu Mang watched Jason Terry getting ready to play, and felt that the world was amazing!
A different kind of coach, who should have had only two years of coaching opportunities and a good record, was fired after more than 40 wins in two years, a nanny who loves to read the scriptures of mother-in-law, a narcissistic tsundere short man...

The game started soon.

When jumping the ball, there should be interaction between both sides.

But today the Eagles are embarrassing!The important rookie on his own bench just said something bad about his opponent and didn't take the initiative to step forward.

And the Pistons, who had been slandered, didn't take the initiative to interact, mainly because they felt ashamed.

This world is like this, there are some contradictions, even if he doesn't ask, you don't tell.

After the start of the game, the Eagles were unsurprisingly underwhelmed.

Although the Pistons have not yet formed the future Pistons Five Tigers, they already have core personnel, namely Ben Wallace, a super center who never knows what offense is, but will be selected to the best team every year for the next five years.

Liu Mang had an illusion that when Ben Wallace was on the court, the entire rhythm of the Eagles became extremely slow!Everyone on the Pistons was exactly where they should be, forcing the Hawks to slow down.

This is different from the rhythm of the Heat shrinking to the basket. If the Heat encounter a team with three-point capabilities like the Spurs, Kings, and Lakers, they will be shot to death. The Pistons defend as a whole, from the inside out!
Pistons point guard Chucky Atkins lost the draft in 99, but he counterattacked and became the best rookie team player.

Jerry Stackhouse, one of the former Pistons, although he averaged 29.8 points per game in the year after Grant Hill left, almost became a member of a club with an average of 30+ points per game in history.

Stackhouse's defensive awareness is mediocre, but his actions are fierce. He is very effective in this era. He has very good physical fitness and his ability to move outside is very good. He really defended Jason Terry.

In terms of inside, both teams are defensive, and offensive decisiveness is useless.

Ever since, the Eagles routinely started Raheem's desperate play.

Generally speaking, at this time, there is really no move.

Fortunately, although the Pistons have a strong defense, they are not the invincible Pistons in the future. They have a huge flaw, which is the small forward.

Michael Curry at the small forward position of the Pistons is really average in defense. He is active and conscious, but his body can't keep up, and he is pressed and beaten by Raheem.

The Eagles can only rely on Raheem's singles to continue scoring. The Pistons did not allow Stackhouse, who has a better defensive effect, to defend Raheem. In that case, Stackhouse may not be able to defend Raheem, who has a huge advantage in height and weight.

Sometimes, whether a coach has top coaching ability can be seen from the rookie season. Coach Rick Carlisle of the Pistons is a talented coach. Entering the NBA is the best coach. I also found some defensive methods, and started hitting iron continuously after hitting Rahim.

The Eagles changed their style of play and asked Jason Terry to play the pick-and-roll and shoot directly, and the effect was mediocre.

The Pistons seem to have a tradition that they love to cut off the connection between the opponent's scorer and other people, let the scorer play alone, and limit it very well!
After Raheem scored two goals and caused a foul at the beginning, the Eagles began to struggle to score.

Conversely, for the Pistons, Coach Carlisle attaches great importance to defense, but also to offense!In his hands, the future Mavericks will be a famous team with extremely balanced offense and defense, and finally won the championship successfully.

His overall offensive attainment is no worse than that of Popovich in the future. Through some pick-and-roll moves, he easily smashed the Eagles' fairly good inside defense in the league.

Playing the Pistons, the Eagles are going to collapse!

Liu Mang found that he seemed to have kicked an iron bucket!Completely pissed off the Pistons!When I watched the video before, the other games of the Pistons were definitely not as active as today!

The start was beaten 13 to 8, and the point difference was stretched to more than 5 points in less than half a quarter.

With such a good record, it is impossible to say that coach Kruger has no idea. Of course, he wants to win every game. Seeing that the score is 5 points short, he quickly called a timeout.

At this time, Liu Mang knew that he was going to go up, he felt uneasy, but, if asked to do it again, he would still choose 1 rogue points...

So that's it!let's go!

Coach Kruger saw Liu Mang walking directly on the court, and shouted in his heart: The reason why the Pistons are so irritable today is because you didn't count the score!You are still so confident on the stage, aren't you afraid that this coach will hide you in the snow!
　Whether Rick Carlisle is a top coach has always been questioned by many people. They think Carlisle is good, so they think he and Popovich are in the same gear. When he arrived at the Mavericks, he was already a Nowitzki who started to decline, but finally won the championship. After winning the championship, Cuban sent Chandler away in order to save money a few years later.

　　What doubts Carlisle is that he has had a top-five lineup in the league since his first year of coaching, but he has never won the first record, and his playoff record can only be said to be average. In his ten-year coaching career, he has only had three division finals and one finals, which is far behind the playoff records of Popovich, Zen Master, Larry Brown and others.
