The Rest, Only Noise

The Eastern Conference finals came to a tragic end.

In the West, the Lakers, who looked dead, unexpectedly drew with the Blazers in the first four games of the Western Conference Finals.

In the fifth game of the Western Conference Finals, Magician had a triple-double, Wilkins scored 40 points, and the 40-year-old Abdul-Jabbar scored 30+7. The Lakers won Tianwang Mountain.

"Maybe next year, Michael?"

Game6, a poster pulled up by fans at the Forum Arena read such words.

If Louie was the head coach, he would have banned fans from carrying the slogan, because it would not be wise to provoke someone like Jordan who gets more and more angry.

Sure enough, in Game 6, Jordan has no teammates in his eyes. He used a method that the world cannot tolerate—a lot of solo fights, not taking his teammates in the eye—he scored 55 points and led his team to win against the wind in the forum.

The game was pushed to the seventh decisive battle.

Game 7 at the Memorial Coliseum takes fans back to the days of Bill Walton.

Eleven years ago, Walton swept the team here, including the Lakers led by the peak of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Ten years later, Abdul-Jabbar, 40, is here again to play in the playoffs, facing a very different player from Walton.

The Blazers used pocket arrays to shrink the penalty area, and Jordan frantically rushed to the basket, causing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to leave the court with six fouls at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Xavier McDaniel's savage confrontation puts the human movie essence on pause.

Larry Nance fought hard in the paint.

Dominate this series with his physicality as it should be. Because the Lakers don't have a spot to match him at the 4.

But we can't just rely on book strength to determine the outcome of the game. What you think of as an advantage is sometimes not your advantage.

Pat Riley took a risk, playing the same way the Blazers did.

The pocket formation, created and spread by Louis, became the theme of the night's game.

Nance couldn't fly in this situation, Drexler couldn't make a jumper, Jordan couldn't hit a 3-pointer, and Magic made every 3-pointer of the night like he was possessed by Curry.

In the last few minutes, Jordan gave up his outside shot and switched to the best first step in history, passing Michael Cooper like a wooden stake to tie the game.

Before the end, Nance's dunk gave the Blazers the lead.

After that, the magician exits the stage, and the tragic actor takes the stage.

What the magician did was familiar to Louis and in line with Louis' impression.

The tragic man is different.

Originally, Tragic was used to mock Magic's disastrous performance in the 1984 Finals. In the following years, Magic has never made a major mistake again, and his performance has always been stable. The things he was not good at before, such as three-pointers, such as attacking with the ball, such as the ability to take over at critical moments... are all in the Celtics. progress in torture.

This version of the magician may be far stronger than the one Louis knew.

After all, Louie's previous life, the Magician in 1987, couldn't have averaged two 3-pointers per game.

For a person who has never played at the three-point line since he was a child, even if he has an excellent sense of the ball, it takes extremely hard work to practice stable and reliable three-pointers in a few years.

The sweat that the magician shed for this is unimaginable for ordinary people.

Tonight, on the Lakers' last offense, Jordan himself came to guard Magician.

Jordan is this year's leading scorer, steals leader, first-team All-Defense and second in MVP voting.

The MVP award is an award that Magic and Jordan have never received in their careers.

Magic hit Jordan with his size back, and in the final seconds, outside the paint, he opened his legs and ran.

One step, two steps, jump.

Under Jordan's defense, the ball in Magic's hand was held up from the right hand and kept rising. When the hand reached the highest point, the ball flew away from the center of the finger.

Even the trapeze can't stop the ball.

Jordan watched the ball fly, at the moment when the red light came on and the game time reached 0 seconds, shuh!

A sea of ​​tears at the Memorial Coliseum.

The fans cried out in pain. For three consecutive years, the Lakers eliminated the Blazers in the Western Conference finals, stepped into the door of the finals, and challenged their destined opponents. It is also the most exciting rivalry of this era.

"Maybe, we should vote for Magic for the MVP of the regular season."

A media personality with options on MVP voting, said after the Western Conference finals.

Ironically, in the MVP vote, Magic was not even in the top four, let alone competition.

Watching Magic reach the finals again, Louie was excited about his performance in the Western Conference finals, but his finals opponent was a team that was hard to beat.

To win against the Celtics, either have a strong frontcourt lineup to suppress Sampson and Laimbeer; or have an outstanding wing lineup against Bird, and strengthen the defense.

That's exactly the path the Pistons and Knicks are taking.

In the West, the most suitable team to challenge the Celtics is undoubtedly the Trail Blazers, who have the best wing lineup in the league. If they made it to the Finals, Louie couldn't imagine how the Celtics would guard against Jordan and how they would guard against Drexler.

One thing is for sure, Bird will have the worst Finals of his career, with Thomas and Sampson going.

In this way, even the pioneers have a slim chance of winning.

Larry Nance was a plaything in front of Sampson.

The path the Lakers choose is to face each other, attacking attackingly.

Such ambition is rare.

Louie thinks the Celtics' four-peat has no dead ends, so he doesn't pay too much attention, and does two things with one heart.

Reviewing the rookie roster for this year's draft by day and taking care of Lorraine at night, she's about to unload.

Let's talk about this year's draft, just like most drafts since the 1980s, there is an unshakable champion.

David Robinson of the Naval Academy.

The media who love the new and hate the old think that he is an evolutionary version of Sampson, not as tall as Sampson, but also seven feet, but faster, more flexible, and more explosive.

A center who is more athletic than Ewing and has Sampson's guard skills.

In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that he is a 7-foot small forward. His speed is too fast, and it is not what a 7-footer should have.

For his potential, scouts give him a rating second only to Ewing, but the ceiling may be higher than Sampson.

In this evaluation, scouts default Ewing's potential above Sampson.

In this evaluation system, scouts default Ewing's potential above Sampson.

It seems outrageous but not difficult to understand, Ewing is recognized as the future juggernaut, and although there is no sign of it, who is sure that he will not have a big breakout in his senior season like Sampson?

Looking at Sampson's first three seasons alone, no one would have believed he would cry all the insiders in the league after 1984.

Louie knows Robinson's future accomplishments and isn't surprised that scouts tout him.

What he really cares about is the Knicks pick.

They have the seventh pick in the first round, so his goal is to bring a star prospect to the team.

As a traveler, in 1987, a draft year that had already produced players who could play into the 21st century, it would be too much not to find an acquaintance by virtue of one's own advantages.

Moreover, this matter is not difficult at all, Reggie Miller who he locked on at once.

Dale Ellis was successfully discharged from the hospital in the playoffs and turned from a second-court shooter to the team's most reliable sharpshooter, but what he did in the regular season disappointed Louie.

Regardless of whether he will reform or not, Louis thinks it is necessary to find a spare tire for him.

If the Knicks draft Miller, perhaps this spare tire will replace Ellis in the starting lineup in less than two years.

Well... on the 3-pointer, and the catch-and-shoot 3-pointer off the ball, is there any player in history other than Ray Allen and Curry and Klay Thompson who can say he is better than Miller? ?

So the only thing they need to watch out for is the Pacers.

Louie remembers that the Pacers didn't seem to trade for Miller, and even Miller wasn't their first choice, so as long as the Knicks picked Miller with the seventh overall pick, they were basically holding hands.

And then there's another thing, about Scottie Pippen's attribution.

After Louis's efforts, he found Pippen.

A few months ago ~www.novelmt.com~ Pippen also worked for a while at a burger joint in his home state of Arkansas. It is located in the middle of "Fog" Street and "Old Milo" exclusive shop.

Pippen played for the University of Central Arkansas ( ) for four years.

The reason Louie couldn't hear from him is because he's from the NCAA Division II.

Possibly, Pippen is the greatest player the NCAA Division II has ever produced.

Precisely because he's from a secondary league, a college league that still gets thousands of viewers per game but doesn't get televised and doesn't have many professional scouts to care about.

But the players of the second league should not be ignored, far from it, the important backbone of the Knicks, Charles Oakley, is also from the second league, and Rodman is also from the second league.

Another flaw in the age of print media is that talented geniuses without a good background, or bad luck, are likely to be reduced to the second-tier league and no one cares.

In the era of social media, a 7-footer can break through Curry's defense and slam the dunk in the United States through a bad luck, so that scouts can discover his potential, from obscurity to the nation's No. 1 high school student in that moment.

However, in this era, there are not so many media, no scouting network, no draft predictions, and no high school scouts. Scouts must rely on their own sense of smell and the recommendations of college coaches, rushing back and forth like headless flies.

If Pippen is unknown, can the Knicks be white wolves with empty gloves?

Louis thought to himself... No, this idea was instantly denied by him.
