The Rest, Only Noise

Next, the Knicks encountered Mark Eaton's hot pot feast in Utah, losing by 6 points and swallowing the second loss.

The next opponent is the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Lakers are rebuilding, and Scottie Pippen's style of play is clearly in conflict with Magic, so it's safe to say there's no team in the West that can stop the Blazers from reaching the top.

Focusing on defeating the Celtics, the Knicks naturally have to find a possible imaginary enemy in the west.

The Blazers are the one with the most potential.

As in years past, the Portland Trail Blazers, with their unrivaled athleticism, triumphed during the regular season, and the only team to beat them was the Phoenix Suns.

The Knicks and Blazers game will begin in three days.

In those three days, the Knicks brought back Dale Ellis, the starting No. 2 of the past few years.

At that time, Louie was in the office. After Ellis returned to the team, he was the first person to say hello.

Ellis didn't say hello before returning, so Louis was unaware of it.

His sudden appearance left Louis a little at a loss.

"Are you fully recovered?" Louie asked.

Ellis told the truth: "The doctor said that I would lose some of my athletic ability, which is irreversible, but I will find a way to overcome this problem."

Looking at him like this, Louis thought a lot.

When Ellis first arrived, and for the next few years.

It is undeniable that the player of Ellis, Louis is very easy to use.

However, beneath his taciturn exterior, there is a devilish soul.

Louie isn't sure if Rodman wants to experience what it's like to coach a demon before Rodman's dark side awakens.

"I'm sure you can recover, but, during your hiatus, Reggie Miller, our rookie this year, played as well as you did in the starting position, and his chemistry with Benj was great, I can't because Let you replace him when you recover."

Ellis was silent.

"And, seriously, Dale, you let me down."

Louie once saw Ellis as part of the Knicks' long-term plan, but not anymore.

Unless he can prove he can do well off the bench too.

"I know, coach."

"No, if you knew, you wouldn't have done that shit!" Louie said sternly, "You think you know everything, you think you know everything, but you know shit, you don't know anything. I gave you a lot of opportunities, you didn't take it, and you ignored my words! I don't care if you have any psychological problems, this is my last warning to you."

"If you do it again," Louis said relentlessly, "I'll trade you."

With the return of Ellis, Louis needs to readjust the lineup.

In fact, it turns out that this rotation schedule has produced a good enough chemistry.

Maybe they don't need Dale Ellis at all.

But Ellis was one of the first Knicks to be identified as the team's future by Louis, who will still give him a chance to prove himself.

If he can play off the bench, that's even better.

If not, the trading calendar will have to move up.

In any case, Louis has to prepare both hands.

He called Baylor and informed him that starting today, put Dale Ellis on the shelves and use the Knicks' publicity department to let other teams know that Ellis is no longer a not-for-sale item.

The day after Ellis returned, Louie asked Tomjanovich and Phil Jackson to organize a match.

It's still the Ewing vs. Wilson team.

Louis came to the sidelines to watch the game.

This game is very interesting, and Ellis's state and his chemistry with others can be seen.

After the captains of the two teams took turns to select candidates, the rosters of the two teams came out.

The Ewing team preferred Stockton, the Wilson team preferred McHale, and Hornacek was the second choice - this selection round was established by Louis based on the BP link in the LOL game. Ewing chose Miller for the second and Ellis for the third. He was very thief, pulling both of the team's best shooters to him.

"I bet Patrick is shooting himself in the foot." Louie is really not optimistic about the combination of Miller and Ellis.

If Ellis will affect Wilson's movement, won't he affect Miller. What's more, Miller also stole Ellis's starting lineup. When these two get together, can there be any cooperation and chemical reaction? It's good not to fight infighting.

Ewing is a good seedling as a coach. He played under Louis for several years and tasted the sweetness, so when forming a team, he directly pulled all the best shooters in the team to his own team.

However, he only knew one thing and didn't know the other, after all, he was too immature.

"How do I feel like Patrick was a good pick?" Tomjanovich didn't see the source of the problem.

If you don't seize this opportunity, you will go to hell.

"I bet $3,000 on Benj's team to win, who will bet with me?" Louie looked straight at Tomjanovich.

The meaning in his eyes couldn't be clearer. If you think Ewing's team can win, then you can take a gamble with me.

$3,000 is still within Tomjanovich's reach.

He agreed, but he did not expect that this would attract other assistant coaches and staff in the Blue Palace to bet.

Wilson's second and third choices are Oakley and Rodman.

In this way, the starting lineup of both sides is formed.

Subsequent selections are for both teams.

Salley and Stevens were chosen by Ewing, Cooper and Tao Song were chosen by Wilson.

Brad Rohos of "Big Bird", "Vanilla Gorilla", "The Only True God of the Knicks", "Outside Big Core and Inside Big Killer" was too strong, so he chose to destroy the balance, so he was banned by both sides out, and honorably become the referee of the competition.

"People also want to play games..." Rohos complained to Louis.

This unwanted outcome does hurt a bit of self-esteem, so Louie diverts his attention with another message: "Because you're not in it, you can join another game."

"What game?"

Louie told him about the bet.

Rohos happily placed a $3,000 bet that the Ewings would win, and as the referee on duty, he was likely to blow the black whistle during the game.

Louis originally thought it was inappropriate, but when he thought about it later, he thought it was a simulation of encountering a referee who gambled in the game... ummm.

From the selection ideas of the two sides, it can be seen that their focus on the game is different.

Ewing is the best defensive player in the team. With him on defense, someone will guarantee the bottom line. Therefore, the players he chooses are biased towards offense.

On the contrary, Wilson's selection is mainly to strengthen the defense, because he and McHale have the bottom line on the offensive end.

These are two very different teams.

At the beginning of the game, Ewing took the initiative in the paint.

Watching him dominate the inside line like an ancient behemoth, neither McHale nor Oakley could defend.

Ewing basically had no chance to exercise his offense under Louis, but he used the few shot rights to practice hard in peacetime to increase his threat with the ball a lot.

At the beginning of the game, Ewing attacked with the ball himself. After encountering a double-team, he scored a three-pointer for Miller and made a 5-0 start.

Wilson called a timeout.

During the timeout, Wilson reminded his teammates: "The coach is watching the scene today. If you don't want to make a bad impression on him, you'd better work hard."

Louis usually doesn't pay attention to player training. Occasionally, like today, his teammates were reminded by Wilson and changed on the spot.

The defensive intensity has increased, and the Ewing team's offense has gradually changed.

As Louis imagined, the striker combination of Miller + Ellis is far less powerful than Miller + Wilson.

Ellis was destined to be an orphan off the ball.

He's the only player Louie has ever seen who doesn't make his teammates better off the ball.

He's also the only player to have Louie discover that off-the-ball doesn't mean absolute selflessness.

Even if he didn't mean it in that way, it was that style in itself.

In contrast to Wilson's team, Hornacek showed a strong sense of competition.

During Ellis' absence, he averaged 25 minutes per game.

Because he can play both the one and the two. So, if Louie needs a reliable No. 1 backup or a No. 2 backup, he will naturally come to his mind.

Hornacek is gradually finding himself more comfortable at the 2~www.novelmt.com~ Now that Ellis is back, his time at the 2 will be greatly reduced unless he can prove himself as a 2 The bench is not only not under Ellis, but also has a ball-handling organization that the latter does not have.

It is this sense of competition that makes Louis ponder.

Ellis does use it more easily, but Hornacek is a better player for him. Combination guard, able to control, shoot and defend, doesn't have as many problems as Ellis, is very selfless, a very stable team member, and has countless advantages... On the other hand, Ellis...

The scales tilted in Louis's heart, just like this game was no longer in suspense after Wilson and the others overtook.

Halfway through the game, the suspense was almost gone, and Louis turned to leave.

He already knew what he wanted.
