The Rest, Only Noise

"What is this defense doing?"

The other Louies can endure it, but if he sees the Celtics creating chances and scoring with passing and cutting, he can't bear it.

This thing has been passed down in every era.

Play well, that's beautiful basketball.

He is an aspiring coach who wants his players to play beautiful games.

Not to mention those obsessed like Steve Kerr, this Celtic team has an objective basis for passing cuts.

As early as the Louis era, passing and cutting was the main body of their attacking system. Now let Sampson play the tool man, the operation of the ball is dominated by Thomas and Bird, which shows the value of passing and cutting to the Celtics. .

That's why Louie is not happy when he sees the Celtics passing and scoring.

The Celtics have the ability to play like this, and the Knicks have the ability to guard them.

If you don't do it, it's a poor defense.

So, seeing Reggie Lewis make the cut, Lewis shouted his disapproval, intended to remind the players to stay focused.

Stockton's hands were not soft, and he simply returned a three-pointer.

The Celtics once again plunged into positional warfare and found the Knicks' defense up a notch.

It is more rigorous than before, and it is not easy to rely on passing to cut out opportunities.

In the small ball era in the future, there will be many teams who like to play passing and cutting.

Because passing and cutting require space, no era has more court space than the small-ball era when there were as many sharpshooters as 40 percent 3-pointers.

The three-pointer is the lifeline of the small ball, and it is also the indicator of passing and moving the ball.

Because, since the passing and cutting requires the whole team to keep running, which requires space, the greater the space, the greater the possibility of running out of opportunities. But if the outside line can't be opened, the other party will take all the inside line. It's like letting Bolt go to the vegetable market to break the 100-meter record.

For other teams, the Celtics' pass-cut may be unfavorable, but in front of the Knicks, it shouldn't have that effect.

Louie has captured the Celtics' weakness—their three-point threat has declined year after year since Louie's departure, and is now perfectly integrated into the era, not too different from other teams.

At this time, their pass and cut play extremely difficult.

Bird's movement has never been able to get a vacancy.

Rodman defended him very well, from hands to feet, to physical contact, and it was all there.

Running out of opportunities, the Celtics will need more individual offense.

Lewis has a ball, Thomas has a ball, and Bird can attack if he gets the ball in the low post and high post, but this is not the way they are used to playing.

"We rarely see the Celtics play a lot with the ball."

"It happened because the Knicks were so good defensively, they made the Celtics less like the Celtics, like a youth army that lacked team spirit."

Comments from Dick Stockton and Hubby Brown gave viewers a clearer picture of the game.

Tactics could not be opened, singles were greatly increased, and the hit rate could not be guaranteed, and the effect of the Knicks' twin-tower lineup came out.

They stably received defensive rebounds, and Ben Yijuechen played defensive counterattacks.

Eight minutes into the first quarter, the Knicks led the Celtics 20-12.

Jimmy Rodgers asks for a time-out.

Louie adjusted the lineup.

He replaced Bowie and Ewing. Although he and Ewing's twin towers worked well, Bowie was too brittle to use more. Although Ewing doesn't have much injury history, he has just returned from injury. To be conservative, he should not be allowed to play more.

Louie replaced two other insiders: John Salley and McHale.

In addition, the point guard position also replaced Stockton with Hornacek.

In this game, Louis has a large number of on-the-spot commanders. He will use the most correct tactics to break the Celtics' position, so Stockton's commanding ability is not needed for the time being.

The Celtics dare not make substitutions, and their lineup depth cannot be compared with the Knicks. Therefore, making the starters play as much as possible is the only way for them to maintain their intensity.

However, the strength of the Celtics' Big Three still belongs to the top of the league.

The last few minutes of the first quarter proved it.

Thomas asked Bird to pick and roll, who took it apart and hit the ground for Sampson after a successful breakthrough.

Replacing Sampson's defender from Ewing to Sally is like replacing Xia Xue from "Family with Children" to someone else. The difference is unimaginable.

Salley is not a bad defensive player.

In fact, Salley's defense is the exact opposite of Sampson's perception, he's strong on defense, and when it's time to play hard, he's going to play hard.

But hitting him, Sampson rewarded himself with a good meal like a holiday.

Selly was afraid of fouls and did not dare to move, and was successfully scored by Sampson.

After that, Thomas made a lightning break.

Bird, as the playmaker, continuously connected with Sampson on the right side, and his ability to make the ball was terrible.

Although Wilson can steadily average 6 assists per game, but in terms of coping ability, Wilson's average of 6 assists per game and Bird's average of 7 assists per game are of different quality.

Just like Westbrook averaged double figures in assists for many seasons, no one should think that his playmaking ability is better than Kidd.

No, even if it is compared with Curry of the same generation, it is not as good.

Byrd, this point is not easy to deal with.

Moreover, he was getting more and more crazy.

From the end of the first quarter to the beginning of the second quarter, facing Rodman's defense, he scored 14 points and 5 assists.

Halfway through the second quarter, his first-serving three-pointer allowed the Celtics to tie the score.

43 to 43

Moreover, he ran up to Louis and asked, "Why don't you send someone to guard me?"

He did this in front of Rodman.

Who is Rodman? He prioritizes defense over his life, just as he's obsessed with rebounding in the future. He knows he can stand firm in the Knicks because the defense is strong enough. He is also working hard in this direction, entering the first defense for two consecutive years, and this year, he has won everyone's recognition and won the DPOY.

And what did this **** Bird say to his most respected coach?

"Why don't you send someone to guard me"?

Louie ignored Bird, but said to Rodman, "If you're upset, he's got his point."

Rodman said angrily: "I won't let him go easily!"

These two people have Liangzi originally, and Louis expressed his understanding.

In the 1988 Eastern Conference finals, it was Rodman's elbow that exacerbated Bird's back injury and had to withdraw from the Game 7 that no Bostonians were willing to recall.

Now, with Wilson off the court, the Celtics' coaching staff dare not act rashly.

For the Knicks, Louie let Rodman play the full first half, and the other positions kept changing.

Rodman defended Bird's half, and as a DPOY, he didn't awe Bird.

Bird not only has no awe, but also scored 24 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists with a slight humiliation.

You know, this is just his half-court stats.

Sometimes, Louie doesn't know if Jimmy Rogers is a fool or a wise man.

He foolishly took the ball away from Sampson at the expense of the team's number one strength for internal harmony. But at the same time, he did not make Thomas the number one core of the offense. Although the ball was returned to Thomas, the core of the team was Bird.

Just like James in the Lakers era, although the influence on both ends of the offense and defense is obviously not as good as that of Anthony Davis, the person who dominates the team's offensive system is still the same.

Giving the ball to Bird secured the Celtics' base.

A player like Bird, as long as he has the ball, has an amazing impact on the situation.

On the court, Ewing wanted a position, but Laimbeer didn't give him a chance. The two were messing around for their positions, and they were about to start. Unexpectedly, Bird and Rodman were the first to clash on the other side.

For the position outside the paint area, the two were close to each other and crossed their hands.

Louis knew that Birdman was about to lose his position. He didn't want Rodman to succeed, so when he fell, he pulled Rodman's arm and lay down together.

Where is Rodman willing to give up? Another elbow was given to him on the spot, so Bird could recall how he was kicked out of the series by this daring bastard.

"Do you want to **** with me?"

Byrd burst into flames.

Ranbir was not able to **** him immediately because he had friction with Ewing.

The game between the Knicks and the Celtics will never be without the smell of gunpowder. There are more and more players involved in the conflict. It seems that it will develop into a gang fight. Fortunately, there are now three referees, who can effectively separate people in time and take technical fouls. threaten.

Louie rubbed his trigeminal nerve.

"Sure enough, we still have to fight." Zhao Yuanzheng smiled bitterly.

"It's true that we haven't played this kind of game in the East for a long time. We just took the opportunity to reminisce. Don't sit on the throne and forget about your housekeeping skills."

Louie appreciates the conflict on the field.

Ewing and Laimbeer spat each other without any culture, and Rodman and Bird ripped off jerseys.

Sally and Isiah Thomas shove McMandy...

So interesting, Louie misses this feeling~www.novelmt.com~ The Celtics are the only team that realizes that they can't stand in front of the Knicks.

Before the Knicks reached the top, they made the ShowTime Lakers in the mid-to-late 80s a joke of the times with this terrifying brutality.

Today, the team that has inherited their throne is a more brutal and presumptuous team. They often clash with people on the court, and every time they clash, only those who fan the flames, not those who persuade them.

The Knicks are not like any other team.

Their synchronization rate is terrible, especially when they are in conflict with each other and need to be consistent externally.

The opposing team has persuaded and made peace, but the Knicks have never.

So once there is a conflict on the court, the Knicks always have the advantage in numbers, because these **** have no **** good things.

"Forget it, after the conflict, let's fight the Bostonians with murder."

Louis said flatly.
