The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 716: your era is over

Every time there is a meeting within the coaching staff, Louie will prepare in advance.

This is the time when all assistant coaches can express their opinions.

On how to play against opponents, Louie will draw up a series of plans in advance, and then, if an assistant coach proposes a similar plan, he will praise the opponent and accept the suggestion.

As for the fact that he prepared it in advance, unless it is necessary, it will not be specifically mentioned.

Like the teacher who teaches, he definitely wants to have a classroom atmosphere where everyone actively speaks.

Louie has created a good atmosphere in the team, and the assistants are willing to share their thoughts.

And this is something you can't see in the Celtics. With so many changes after Ford took over, Louie can be sure that the birdman didn't help Jimmy Rodgers well.

Otherwise, Rogers can always use a few of his tricks. .

When the Knicks coaching staff holds a pregame meeting, it's always very lively.

Zhao Yuanzheng spoke actively and came up with good ideas every time.

Billy Donovan has the potential to be a critter with him, and he's also very active when it comes to giving advice. Moreover, he likes to defend, Zhao Yuanzheng prefers to attack, and the advice of the two does not conflict.

As the chief assistant coach, Tomjanovich does not have so many ideas. He often takes a pen and paper to write down everyone's suggestions and summarize them, and then analyze with Louis which one is most suitable for use in the game.

In order to successfully conclude the series tomorrow, the meeting was held for two hours.

In Louie's words, they scoured the Celtics from head to toe.

How about going back to the old tactics? The Knicks, who were not mature enough back then, defeated them. Now, with the momentum of two consecutive championships, why is it difficult to defeat the Celtics?

May 30, 1990

The unscrupulous Madison Square Garden event preparation department has ingeniously planned a stage play.

They found a white bird who looked like Bird from nowhere, and then simulated what would happen after they lost the game in front of the Celtics players.

The white man who played Byrd was so good at acting that he burst into tears on the spot like a character in the second dimension.

"Haha!" commented Marv Albert with delight, "I'm sure the stage play was at the absurd funeral of Howard Stern for John DeBella. Inspiration 1."

Louie almost lost his footing.

"Did the group of people in the event preparation department think the Celtics weren't angry enough?" Louis couldn't see the meaning of this trick that had no other use than disgusting opponents, but only made them more involved in the game.

That's it, the Knicks have to win this game.

Otherwise, if the Celtics win two games in a row, although it will not shake the fundamentals, it is too passive to go to the away game.

Once the game was dragged to the tiebreaker, Louis still had an empty heart for the Celtics who had Bird + the first player in the league.

However, he doesn't think the series will drag to a tiebreaker.

Not even a sixth game.

Just tonight, he will end the Eastern Conference finals at home.

"This is CBS Sports Night, and tonight, we're bringing you Game 5 of the New York Knicks vs. Boston Celtics." Dick Stockton opened his mouth to the camera, then questioned him The partner, "Hubi, what do you think of this game?"

"The loss in the last game was a reminder to New York that they can't win everything they want, whether it's against the Celtics or against the Western Conference champions in the finals, their strength is defense. "

Brown said profoundly: "Only by defending well can they give full play to their lineup advantages."

Opening, Sampson won the jump ball.

The Celtics' starting lineup hasn't changed, it's always the five.

For the first time since the start of the series, the Knicks made their regular-season starters: Stockton, Miller, Wilson, McHale, Ewing.

This lineup is terrifying just by looking at it on paper.

Four of the five players in the starting lineup have defensive ability at the defensive level. Starting with this lineup shows that Louis no longer wants to be entangled with the Celtics, and wants to be real.

The Celtics want Sampson to give them a good start.

The ball passed to Sampson.

The only one ready to face the basket breakthrough, for his offense, the Knicks have long been prepared.

Louie laid out a defensive plan for Sampson, with Ewing, Wilson and Miller shrinking from left and right, and piling up in the free throw line area, which clamped his breakthrough route.

This arrangement was designed by Louis combined with Donovan's advice and carefully selected locations.

The position of the free throw line is to double-team Sampson, which can force Sampson to return the ball to the teammates outside the left and right 45-degree three-point line, because the free throw line is very close to the left and right 45-degree three-point line. , so, Wilson and Miller can return as soon as necessary to ensure that they do not give the Celtics shooter a wide open three-pointer.

Moreover, Sampson may have been shocked by the momentum of the three people's attack. The passing force was too strong, and he overestimated Bird's bounce.

His pass went out of Bird's reach, causing the basketball to go out of bounds and the Celtics to miss the opening ball.

Louie clapped his hands and expressed satisfaction with the opening defense.

Regardless of offense or defense, as long as the offense can be advanced or defended, it is a good start.

ValleyEwing took the initiative.

"Here it again!" Louie narrowed his eyes, he didn't want to see Ewing singles against Sampson, "Why is this guy so obsessed with singles Ralph? Isn't it uncomfortable to be covered in hot pot in front of him?"

Ewing was beaten to the point of amnesia every time he met Sampson.

But he still likes to play Sampson in singles, even if the success rate is low, he can play it right.

This ball, Sampson's chassis firmly withstood Ewing's body, forcing him to turn back.

The first-hand rabbit jump shot that fans love to see flew out of Ewing's hand. Unfortunately, due to Sampson's serious interference, the ball's parabola doesn't look like it will go in.

"boom!"

"My fault!" Ewing yelled.

As if Louis could let him go.

However, the moment the rebound fell, a white figure flew up in the penalty area.

"Benj!!"

Wilson flew like a helicopter, grabbed the falling rebound and violently dunked it into the hoop.

Ewing breathed a sigh of relief at MSG's uproar.

He was just about to return to the defense, but he didn't expect Louie to go to the sidelines and slap his **** hard: "I beg you to let Ralph go, okay? You're not his opponent!"

Even if what Louie said was true, Ewing did not intend to let Sampson go.

He is like Ke Zhen'e, no matter whether he can beat him or not, as long as he sees that he feels injustice in his heart, he must stand out. It doesn't matter if he is beaten to death.

His kind of challenge to Sampson, Louis can't understand completely.

The Knicks matchup is interesting.

If Sampson is in the high post, let McHale go to the defense; if Sampson goes to the low post, it must be Ewing defense; Wilson stared at Bird the whole time, and several others played according to their positions.

Bird and Thomas picked and rolled, and Stockton was forced to switch to Bird.

Thomas passed the ball, Bird received the ball, he was sure to eat Stockton alone, two of the dirtiest players Louis had ever seen in his life suddenly met, who could win?

Bird's physical talent easily pushed Stockton past Stockton, slowly and leisurely to the basket, deliberately reversed the basket to avoid Ewing's block.

But he didn't expect Wilson's help defense to come so quickly.

This year's Eastern Conference finals, like the handover battle between Wilson and Bird.

In the past two years, Bird's fans have been able to lie in their past glory and force their defenses. This year, the two faced off and Bird was clearly at a disadvantage.

Wilson has averaged 35 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists per game so far in the Eastern Conference Finals, beating Bird, who averaged 25 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists per game.

At this time, he saw Bird's dislocation defense against Stockton, who was expected to be unable to hold GOAT's offense.

With Thomas standing on the perimeter, he has no worries. In the game against the Celtics, it is the Knicks' established strategy to let Thomas make three-pointers.

The decision was made in seconds, and Wilson set off, sprinting to the basket and throwing Bird's calculated shot.

McHale hurriedly caught the ball from the pegboard.

Wilson landed and turned around, like a cheetah rushing to the front court.

"Benj dominates both offense and defense!"

Wilson's one-armed windmill dunk in the frontcourt~www.novelmt.com~ covered the Knicks' opening two offenses and two defenses.

4 to 0

When Wilson returned to the backcourt, he faced Bird again.

"Your time is over, Larry," Wilson said confidently.

"Humph!" Bird said arrogantly, "It's not up to you to decide whether it's over or not."

This time, Bird pressed Wilson's body with all his strength, got the ball in a high position, exerted force in his hands, pushed the defense, and turned to shoot.

"Shh!"

2 to 4

"You are no different from two years ago." Bird sneered.

Wilson's mentality did not fluctuate. Bird's shot just now belongs to the category of personal ability. If he makes a good shot, if he doesn't score, if he gets a defensive rebound for the Knicks, it will be another Celtic who can't stop it. fight back.

Since Bird has ignored the consequences of the risky attack in order to retaliate, it just shows that his method has worked.
