The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 138: With magic, beat magic

"The rest, only noise new( Find the latest chapter!

At the beginning of October, the preseason training camp had just ended, and the Celtics had only one day off in Boston to go to other cities to play preseason games.

Their first game was on one of the biggest stages in the world - Madison Gardens.

The opponent waiting for them is the New York Knicks who were reborn last season.

"I have only one request for you tonight."

Louis looked at the scene and said lightly: "Don't let me call a timeout because you played ugly, even if you can't shoot, the process should be picturesque."

The team members have never heard such a strange request in their entire life.

The game started just as Louis had envisioned.

Sampson and Bill Cartwright jumped for an easy win.

Then, Bird passed the pick-and-roll to Isiah Thomas in the high post, successfully keeping his defender on the perimeter.

Thomas was rushing too fast, and by the time the rest of New York found out, the ball was already in the rim.

"Fuck!" Knicks head coach Hubie Brown was going to get angry at this impossible ball. "What the **** are you doing? That's called defense?"

So, reporters in New York filmed the moment Brown went wild.

The next day, if the Knicks lost, they would applaud the efforts of the responsible head coach. If the Knicks win, can they win without such a responsible coach?

Coaches get close to the media in exchange for a good public opinion environment, which Louis has seen before.

Fitch is a lesson learned, and Brown, who happens to be coaching in a city where the modern media is making a fortune, just happens to carry on his prowess.

The Celtics didn't make much effort.

Bird and Thomas are constantly getting along, and they'll play the No. 1 system for a while and then switch to a No. 3 system.

When Louie replaced Thomas, Bird directly activated the No. 2 system.

Sometimes Bird will play the No. 2 system when Thomas is around. Although Thomas' shooting is not accurate enough, he is not an ice shooter who can't make any shots.

If you want to talk about how the Celtics played in the first half of the quarter.

It can only be four words, silky, smooth.

Bird and Thomas both played what Louis wanted to see. Sampson did not have a ball in the attack, but he was the one who scored the most points in the first quarter.

When Bird, John Long, and Laimbeer followed Louis's suggestion and pulled apart with a side triangle, the Knicks didn't believe in evil.

Continuing to play pocket play, then Laimbeer scored a 3-pointer.

The space was torn apart in this way. Sampson received the ball from the basket continuously, either scoring directly or playing high. Cartwright has a similar style to him, but his physical quality is not the same.

In the first quarter, the Celtics scored 39 points without pressure.

The Knicks also scored a lot, with 28 points. Even though they played well, the difference unknowingly widened.

In the second quarter, Louis waved his hand to change into the lineup of the connecting segment.

Led by Gerald Henderson, Danny Ainge, Bird, Maxwell and Sampson.

"We noticed an interesting detail," said Marv Albert (Marv Albert), who is still on the Knicks radio and television station. "So far, LittleLu has not actively called a timeout, and has never been as excited as Hubby. , we saw him talking and laughing with the people around him, and he didn't seem to care about the process and the results of the game."

Louie doesn't care about the result, but he cares about the process, he just pretends not to.

He found that the current lineup is too suitable for Bird.

Henderson + Maxwell + Sampson, two powerful cutters, an inexplicable cake-eating machine, plus Ainge and Bird both have high enough ball quotients to play the No. 2 system at the high post.

Although Henderson is not on the same level as Thomas in strength, he can take over the three system and the one system with Bird's help.

Sampson was the scoring leader in the second quarter.

At halftime, he scored 22 points, 7 rebounds and 3 blocks.

He's becoming the type of player Louie wants -- effortlessly being the team's No. 1 or No. 2 finisher on offense, and a defensive end that spreads his influence all over the field.

This does not occupy the ball, and the influence of the defensive end radiates the inside of the team. If you add a three-point shot, isn't it a perfect inside line in the era of small balls?

It's just that Louie isn't sure about Sampson's 3-pointer or not.

Stepping too far is easy to pull the egg, and Sampson is only playing a perfect first half, not to mention the preseason, the intensity is not so high.

65 to 49

At halftime, the Knicks trailed by 16 points.

Brown told reporters at the scene: "We will fight to the end on behalf of New York and our opponents, we will not give up because of a preseason game!"

He's really one of those, special, loud, kind of coaches that make you want to punch him.

In the second half, the Knicks' ace player made a move.

Bernard King, Louis didn't know anything about him before he crossed over, and just tonight, the other party left an indelible impression on him.

He's almost impossible to defend on his turn-and-turn straight-arm jumper after receiving the ball on the left and right wings.

The speed of turning over, the point of the shot, and the soft touch of being pressed against the face by the opponent. At first glance, his turning over reminded Louis of many people.

Maddie, Dirk and Rasheed Wallace.

His style of play is not as loud as his name, New Yorkers call him the new king, but his style of play is not domineering. If I have to say it, it is also like Pierce after the age of 30, solid and steady, even with a sense of sculpture.

His mid-range singles skills are surprisingly comprehensive, whether it's a face-to-the-basket jump shot, a dribble lick and a dribble stride to the basket, a back-to-the-basket turn, or a roll over to the flanks.

After most of the third quarter, Jin, who found his hand, was invincible, and even Sampson was slapped by him.

"I'm going to pause."

Just by letting Louis take the initiative to call a time-out, Kim is proud of himself.

The Celtics' defense is no problem, just because King's state is too hot, Louis wants to try and see if he can limit his offense. If he can use a timeout to affect his state, that's fine.

Jin's outbreak will not affect the outcome of this game.

Louie likes to win. Strictly speaking, this is his first game as a head coach. The few games that put out the fire in the playoffs last season were all hung up as acting coaches.

Since it was the first game, even in the preseason, Louis would have to win beautifully.

"If Bernard comes to the post again, Larry, you come to the corner to make a pocket." Louie teased his players with a smile, "I don't know how many times he turned to the bottom line and you didn't do anything. "

The trouble with defending Kim is that if Bird doesn't go to the matchup, if others come, either the size will suffer, or the speed will not be able to keep up.

So Louie broke the rotation and put rookie Guy Williams on the floor.

"You don't even have to use your brain to defend, just hold him firmly and pay attention to his turning and slipping to the bottom line." Louis's requirements are not high.

Williams' ambition surprised Louie: "What if he just turned around and made a jumper?"

The Celtics still have something in the draft department. They can pick such a bold guy in any second-round pick. They also asked Kim what to do if he uses his killer skills to turn around and shoot?

"Pray he misses," Louie said. "Pray he misses, and don't foul."

The pockets that Louis made for Kim were useful at first, because the probability of this dude turning low and slipping to the bottom line to attack the basket and make an emergency stop shot was a little higher.

But this is just his habitual offensive tendency, it does not mean that it is the only thing he is sure of.

His basic skills are very good, in addition to the low singles on the left and right flanks, he also has a lot of clever tricks for facing the basket.

When he faces the basket, he hits the left side with a strong move, then turns around to knock Guy Williams down after collecting the ball, and the poor rookie puts his face to the ground, looking back, his opponent has scored.

Sampson was very temperamental, eyeing Kim trying to cover his ball.

Tried a few times without covering the ball.

The combination of Jin's sudden throw and the complete opening, the Celtics couldn't prevent him.

Right now, it is the world of attacking Yang Dingtian and defending the offensive star striker who can't stand up, and the one-on-one defense at the 3 position, especially this kind of hexagonal attack with speed, physical fitness and skill. Hand, there is really no way to hold him.

Louie feels that there will be many such guys in the future who will score high points on the Celtics.

Since he couldn't prevent it, Louie had to sit down and admire how the super scorer who was buried in history scored.

Later, Bird and others also understood that they couldn't prevent him today, but they were much better than the Knicks in scoring.

The two sides increased their efforts to attack~www.novelmt.com~ and finally scored a high score of 139 to 112.

Bernard King had a game-high 42 points, but two of the Celtics scored more than 30, and six of the team scored in double figures.

They are an overwhelming force. The game reached the fourth quarter, and the Knicks had reached the regular season level in order not to lose too much, but the Celtics scored as much as they wanted, and the offense was on fire.

"I'm sure the Celtics will be a hurricane in the league this season."

Hubie Brown's praise made Louie shudder. He called Brown "Hu Pupu" not only because he likes to talk nonsense, but also because he has a notorious crow's mouth, which is praised by him unless he has great luck. Add your body, otherwise it will be difficult to have a good end.

"It's hard to say whether we will blow up a hurricane, but the Knicks will definitely be the favorite to win the championship in the new season."
