The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 258: BostonSucks

On June 3, 1984, when the Celtics arrived in Los Angeles at noon, they headed to the hotel hungry because it was unsafe to eat out.

Just think about how the Lakers got screwed in Boston.

Those who engage people will eventually be engaged. Although it is not the intention of the Celtics players to recruit the Lakers off the court, they do profit from this method. Therefore, they have to be on guard.

Louis strictly ordered the players not to go out to eat. If you want to take out, you have to notify the coaching staff, and then the coaching staff will make arrangements.

Louie is so discreet that it is puzzling. A few days ago, he let the players free themselves after the second game.

Caution about the matter stemmed from certain memories of Louis.

Jordan's flu battle was said to be poisoned in the documentary by himself. If this happened even in the 1997 NBA, he couldn't overestimate the moral standards of the 1984 NBA fans.

Facts have proved that the quality of the Los Angeles people and the professionalism of the Lakers management are not comparable to the old guys like Auerbach who came from the prehistoric era, and the Moroccan disciples in the Salt Lake City area.

Celtics players will be provoked here, but there will be no fire alarms on duty in the middle of the night, no uninvited guests knocking on their doors, and no fans calling their hotel rooms to speak ill of each other.

In terms of professional ethics and fan quality, the Lakers are already champions.

But to become true champions, they still need to defend their two home courts.

Game3, game night.

The Lakers’ starting lineup is surprising. It’s not Rambis, Wilkes, or McAdoo who partnered with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, but Bass who spent a lot of money to dig it out of Washington but didn’t come in much use. of Mitch Kupchak.

The former Kupchak reminded Louie of a rich man version of Mark Madsen, who was quicker and stronger by comparison.

Although he is white, he belongs to the kind of mad-dog-type white insider thugs like Kent Benson.

Teams with patients with severe princess disease like Abdul-Jabbar need to arrange bodyguards to **** them, so that the former cannot be exposed to the opponent's iron hoofs.

It's a pity that Kupchak suffered a torn ACL as soon as he took the big contract.

In the '80s and earlier, ACL tears represented retirement/near retirement or a significant decline in performance.

Kupchak belongs to the latter. After the injury, he was marginalized in the Lakers. Did not expect Riley to start him in the finals?

What is this calculation? Louie frowned, staring at the future Lakers general manager.

The surprising point is that Sampson lost the jump ball to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

This is the second time since the finals started, and I can't help but sigh that **** is still spicy.

The Lakers' strategy is no different from before.

Give up the mid-range and strictly control the three-point line and the paint.

Their defense against three-pointers is a notch higher than before.

Doing so will result in a decrease in the defensive intensity of the penalty area.

Isn't this putting the cart before the horse? Even in the era of small balls, they would block the penalty area and give opponents more chances to shoot three-pointers.

Isaiah Thomas saw at a glance that the Lakers had hidden dangers inside, so he rushed in at full speed.

His layup didn't come off because Kupchak gave him confrontation like a savage.

Louie thought it was at least a foul, and the sensitive referee might have given it a T.

But tonight's referee, the infamous Dick Bavetta, held his whistle tightly, like a lion choked its prey.

"You're bragging, old bastard!" Louie cursed.

He didn't yell out loud, but when Baveta watched Kupchak foul without whistle, he got angry.

"You want to tell me it's not a foul?"

Thomas was brought down, and the Lakers got the ball and fought back.

"Don't point fingers at my work!" said Bavetta coldly.

"Damn it!" Louis never thought that the referee tonight would be Bavita.

Regarding Baveta, there are at least two games where he can demonstrate his stupidity and bias towards the Lakers.

In 1977, Maravich scored 68 points against Walter Frazier. He could score 70 points 100% of the time, with a certain probability of scoring 80 points, but he didn't. Why? Because he was sent off by a referee named Dick Bavita.

Will this happen again in the next 100 years? I mean, will fans ever see a second NBA referee send off a player who could have scored 70, 80 that night?

And, Game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals, one of the two darkest games of the 21st century (1), a game in which the Sacramento collectively advocated for the Lakers to hand out the championship ring to the three referees that night. Referee that night: Dick Bavita.

Baveta has deep qualifications, and how to put pressure on such an old referee is what Louis needs to learn.

Not every referee is a moody **** like Jack Madden.

Bavita is probably the referee who has been sprayed with the most "black whistle", but he is also the referee with the most attendance in history. That is to say, his black whistle, except for "black" itself, has no other problems. He is a both. Terrible and persistent referee.

It's like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was a jerk, but he still played from 1969 to 1989.

When the Celtics did the same to the Lakers and Laimbeer overturned Dennis Johnson, Baveta didn't whistle and another referee did.

The referee, Paul Mirahack, has been in the league since 1969. When the incident happened, he stood on the bottom line and saw Laimbeer's actions clearly.

"This is a double standard!" Louie growled. "The fans all over the world are watching this game. Is this the law enforcement ability you want the world to see?"

Louie's growl went unheeded.

But Louis did not become more angry because of this. Many coaches mentioned in his autobiography that if the referee ignores your anger, it is not really ignoring you, but knowing that he is wrong, so he chooses to avoid the edge.

At this time, what he has to do is to continue to exert pressure.

When the Celtics were under continuous high-intensity pressure, the offense was frequently hammered, and the Lakers made an 8-0 start, Louie called a timeout.

He drew an iron barrel around the free throw line, resolutely emptied all the Lakers' long-range shots, and locked the restricted area.

"Don't foul on the inside, focus on assisting defense, and leave the foul to others!" Louie said loudly.

Louie's strategy worked. The Celtics were besieging the city with iron barrels. Even if the Magician broke in, he had to pass the ball in the face of multiple attacks.

He can't pass the ball inside, he has to pass it out.

Wilkins got the ball and came in again. He was much tougher than Magician and wanted to use his physical fitness to eat.

If he was given an open field, the Celtics had no one to stop his offense.

Bird's hand that wanted to play hit him.

Mirahac wanted to whistle, but his line of sight happened to meet Louis.

Louie is standing on the sidelines. As long as he blows the whistle, there is no doubt that he will roar on the sidelines like a madman. There is no era of zero tolerance. Even if the coach verbally hunts the whole family, the referee can only give a technical foul.

What's more, Louis will not be so direct, what he has to do is to put pressure on the referee.

For some reason, Mirahak's whistle did not sound.

Wilkins was physically attacked without causing a foul, and now it was his and Riley's turn to complain to the referee.

The referee is the one who bears the most pressure on the court. Fans, players, and coaches, if one party is unhappy, will attack him.

When the Celtics hit the penalty area again, Kupchak rammed Bird's body and was called for a foul.

Now Louie knows what the Lakers did with Kupchak.

Not value his ability, but value his 6 fouls.

When he came on the court, he had only one task, to stop all the Celtics from attacking the penalty area.

He certainly can't legally block all the drives, so fouling is the best way to go.

Therefore, the Lakers' strategy has been clearly exposed in the eyes of Louis.

Strictly control the Celtics' three-pointers, put them in the mid-range, keep the penalty area defense, and if they can't prevent them, they will foul.

This extreme strategy is the reason why the Celtics' offense has not been smooth since the beginning.

The Lakers have already regarded this battle as a life-and-death battle. They know that if the Celtics lead 3-0, everything will be over.

As for the offensive end, Bird's foul did not prevent them from continuing to sprint inside.

They knew where the Celts were dead.

Magician passed the ball to Abdul-Jabbar under the attack of multiple people~www.novelmt.com~Jabbar missed the sky hook, Wilkins rushed down the offensive rebound, jumped up and collided with Sampson, the referee blew the whistle, 2 +1 for scoring.

"BostonSucks!"

"BostonSucks!"

Earth's number one lake honey, Jack Nicholson, wearing a dress marked "BostonSucks" stood up and gave the Celtics his **** with both hands, roaring: "BostonSucks!!"

⑴If you want to ask which one is the other one, my answer must be G4 in 2017, everyone who has seen it understands. However, in terms of the severity of the consequences, the 17 game was far less than 02. 17 just helped the Cavaliers to renew their breath and changed the result of being swept. 02 directly took Weber, Divac, Peja. The stinky shit's eggs were blown. This directly determines the OK Dynasty, the first championship of the Kings team, and Webber's historical position floating 5-10 places - Bavita will always be a god.
