The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 212: Genius of Genius (5/83)

Isaiah Thomas is full of fighting spirit.

The tactics that Louis arranged for him just played to his characteristics.

The Lakers started Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Rambis tonight, partnered on the inside, adding height and hardness, and they clearly wanted to give up defending Bird's outside three-pointer.

Bird gave them face very much.

The Lakers' plan had to be completed by Bird missing an open 3-pointer, and then Bird made them happy.

In fact, no one can say for sure, so Louie didn't blame Bird too much for the first ball.

Everyone has a bad night.

The main point should be Thomas, and he played a role right away.

First cracked Dennis Smith's midfield pressing to slow down, and another person broke the Lakers' three-person attack.

Then the Lakers realized that the three-man attack was just a burden, and Wilkins should go to disgusting Bird.

So, still not enough.

As an insider, Rambis is not as tough as a white man, and it is absolutely enough to do errands for Kareem.

But to help defend Thomas, especially when Sampson comes out of the pick-and-roll, his delay is very problematic. The position is too far out and he will be passed by one step. The position of the station is too far inward, and people don't even look at him, just raise his hand and shoot.

Thomas' strength alone erased the advantage the Lakers had built up through Bird's poor feel.

12 to 10

Halfway through the quarter, the Lakers lead by only 2 points.

Pat Riley requested a suspension.

"Isaiah Thomas is full of fighting spirit tonight!" Tom Heinsohn praised him, "It can be seen that the Lakers have no idea how to defend him, he is too flexible, except for three-pointers, you Let him do anything."

Levy was biting **** the gum in his mouth, and he was now facing several problems.

How to solve Thomas' offense, how to solve Thomas and Bird's pick-and-roll offense, and how to solve Thomas and Sampson's pick-and-roll offense.

The pick-and-roll with Bird, because the former feels bad tonight, so don't worry too much.

Generally, Sampson will open laterally after the pick-and-roll. Although his range cannot reach the three-point line, it is long enough to open up space.

If he goes down, he's a threat to the basket that few in the league can match.

Riley bit his chewing gum for a long time and decided to replace Rambis, who was tough enough and lacking in speed, with Jamal Wilkes.

His offense is better and his defense is faster, but that's all it takes. It's unrealistic to expect Wilkes to have other effects.

"Anyway, Jamal, you must keep an eye on me!" Riley's strategy is to delay the first time Thomas calls the pick-and-roll, and then go back to chase Sampson after the effect is achieved.

This is a big test for the physical fitness and defensive awareness of the defender.

Wilkes isn't Michael Cooper, and Riley doesn't expect him to hand over a 90.

On the Celtics side, Louis replaced Bird, who made 0 of 5 shots in the opening half.

"Larry's feeling is too bad today, you have to help him a little more." Louie described Bird as weak, pitiful and helpless, "Just think, he runs slower than me, and dances faster than my daughter. The friend is even lower, the quality is so poor that it doesn't look like someone who has been in college for five years, and he lives on the court by shooting with one hand, and now he can't even shoot, shouldn't you help him?"

Bird didn't bother to care about the **** in front of Louie, "I can do a lot more than shoot!"

"Remember, everyone is for me, I am for everyone!" Louis poured a sip of chicken soup, and then carefully instructed Thomas, "They will definitely change people, I can't say who to change, but no matter who it is, it's not good. Against you, all you have to do today is keep calling pick-and-rolls and hitting their dislocations!"

Louie said carefully: "Even if you don't have the ball in your hand, if you want to play a certain person out of position, let the teammate who is opposite that person cover you, and then find a way to use the ball to force them to switch."

Louie is very careful. Last time he was at home, he tested Sampson's one-on-one defense and Thomas' attacking power.

Today, he wants to see if Thomas, who is in full swing on offense, really belongs to the Lakers' unstoppable countermeasures.

Tomjanovich saw the Lakers replace Wilkes and said directly to Louis: "Although Jamal Wilks' athletic ability is better than Kurt Rambis, the defensive effect may not be better. It is estimated that they Still leaning towards the offensive finals.”

"It should be like this. The strength of the Lakers does not lie in defense." Louie smiled, "It belongs to the work of these rough people under us."

Tomjanovich has a saying, I don’t know if it should be said, this group of rude people under Louis is as easy as drinking water to get 110-120 points in a game. There is only one team in the league that is crazier than them. That is famous. Undefensive Nuggets.

The Lakers, known as ShowTime, can't make it into the top three in the scoring list.

They win by offensive efficiency, and the Celtics are the second-best offensive team in the league and the top six defensive teams in the league.

Suddenly, the magician backs John Long from a high position.

Even against a full-size 2, the Magician's advantage is clear.

He succeeded in attracting the Celtics' double-team to Wilkes on the weak side.

Wilkes' shooting repeatedly reminded Louie of amateur golfers on the field, and his shooting posture was so awkward that Louie wanted to find him a shooting expert to correct him.

But his shooting was awkward, and his shot was worthy of the reputation of "silk".

"Shh!"

Thomas called Sampson high and passed him the ball.

Thomas deliberately dislocated Wilkes, so, running from Sampson's direction, the two had a hand-in-hand cooperation.

Wilkes was forced to switch.

Thomas' speed is too fast, Wilkes is not as embarrassed as Rambis, but he can only maintain a threatening position, but not a fatal threat.

As a result, Thomas jumped forward from the right wing of the paint, threw a ball, slam!

12 to 14

Then, the magician scored a ball himself.

After dribbling the ball to the front court again, without pausing, he made a decision within a second, and flew Lang with his body.

Louie was stunned, but James, who learned to back fight, was just like that. But the magician is different from the domineering genre of James who uses his body to crush all the way. He has small skills.

After hitting Cheung, he didn't make a hasty shot, but played a wonderful step with one foot support and one spin, avoiding Sampson's help defense, and the small sky hook hit.

16 to 12

"See? It's something Larry can't learn in his life!" Eddie Murphy exclaimed boldly.

The beauty star who had a wave of snorts with Louie cooperated with each other.

Louis didn't react much, and Bird couldn't sit still: "Aren't you going to help me refute?"

"How to refute? Can you look at your own statistics?" Louis looked at him speechlessly.

Bird has nothing to say. Why doesn't he make the population hilarious, a waste of 0+0+0 in 0 of his 5 shots?

Thomas frantically called the No. 1 tactical system, and Bird was not there, so he was the big core in the system, or the kind of ball-dominant core that didn't even have a secondary core.

Usually, he also needs to cooperate with Bird to help others open up the situation.

Today, the Lakers are trying to score three points, and then block the area within the three-point line.

John Long is the only one who will draw attention from beyond the arc.

However, he was continuously blasted by the Magician, and his shooting feel was very bad.

Thomas is excited to play, any ball can come.

He called pick-and-rolls, screens and chased Wilkes for **** spanking.

Finally, in a pick-and-roll from beyond the three-point line, he dribbled the ball behind Wilkes and stepped on the three-point line to force a shot. After being fouled by the opponent, he made three non-stick shots.

At this point, the first quarter is almost over.

Riley has faced up to his mistakes. Wilkes can alleviate the offensive space problem and give their fours better mobility, but he is not a good defender, and he is not a good person to play for Thomas. The candidate for the misplaced sandbag.

It wasn't too late when he realized the problem, but the Celtics had already completed the go-ahead.

25 to 22

Thomas scored 14 points in a single quarter, almost relying on his own strength to reverse the unfavorable situation caused by Bird's stench of three-pointers.

At the end of the first quarter, Louis had a normal rotation.

The starting lineup kept Sampson and Maxwell, all the others were replaced, and Bird, who had sat for five minutes, was ready to go, and was eager to prove himself again, was replaced.

The other two positions are Gerald Henderson and Scott Weidman.

A backup defender with plenty of defensive energy, and a shooter who is not much used by Louie.

Before going on the court, Louie said to Bird: "Don't be obsessed with recovering the sense of three-pointers. I believe that your other abilities are also top-notch. As long as you play your own characteristics and stabilize the situation, you'll be fine."

Bird asked Louis back, "What if I find the wrong place like Isiah?"

"This is your advantage. If you can bully those little guys with your body and those big guys with your speed, your dislocation threat will be greater than Isiah. In fact, you have a reference on the opposite side." Lui Cheng Heart stimulated Bird, "The Lakers' No. 32 is a misplaced genius."

He said it like he was electrocuting Bird's DNA.

With a straight face, he said coldly, "Who is not a genius yet?"

"You are also a genius, but that guy is a genius among geniuses." Louis looked at him with admiration, and the contempt on his face when he was angry at Bird country bumpkins in peacetime, Almost two extremes.

The only thing these two extremes have in common is that they provoke Bird's hatred.

Byrd stepped on the field with an ugly face.

"Have you finished the eye drops?" Tomjanovich slipped over unconsciously.

"It's not that exaggerated," Louis said vividly. "I just told him that a magician is ten times better than him."

"Isn't that an exaggeration?"

Tomjanovich's chrysanthemums are starting to get cold.

"You know, that guy is the angrier, the better he plays." Louis looked forward to the next progress.

The only regret is that he can't sit down and eat melons, and he has to command on the spot. It was the first time that he felt bored in coaching.

It's too annoying to watch people tearing apart after provocation!
