The Rest, Only Noise

"New York's walls are tall and thick."

In the Eastern Conference finals, the Pacers who counterattacked all the way to the front of the Knicks, after four games, failed to create a miracle and lost 0-4.

This is also Danny Manning's emotion after being eliminated by the Knicks for three consecutive years.

The Knicks are to the Pacers what the Pacers are to the Heat.

Louis is expected to lead the team to surpass the Celtic dynasty in the 1980s and become the second coach to lead the team to win five consecutive championships after the Celtics of the Auerbach era.

In the West, Jordan and Barkley's dominance is significantly stronger than Pippen and Robinson.

When the series stalemate reached Tianwang Mountain, Jordan scored 52 points, 7 rebounds and 12 assists in a single game, and Barkley scored 41 points and 22 rebounds.

For the Lakers, although Pippen had a triple-double, his personal score was limited and he only scored 17 points. Although Robinson scored 30 points in a single game, it didn't help.

The Blazers are one step away from qualifying.

In the sixth game, the tragic division was lost, and the Lakers faced a headwind with a much worse mentality and were suppressed by the Trail Blazers throughout.

"A new era has ushered in the West."

"After four years since 1988, Michael Jordan led the team to the Finals again. This time, the opponent in front of him is still New York, but he is stronger than before."

The Knicks and Trail Blazers reunited in the finals, which was a happy result.

The showdown between the Lakers and the Knicks is fun, but if it's the same for four years in a row, the audience will get tired of it.

As the number one star of the Mesozoic era, Jordan has everything except the championship title.

The same goes for his teammate Barkley.

The Knicks dominated the league for four years and are now on their way to a five-peat.

June 2, 1992

The Trail Blazers arrived in New York, and Game 1 of the Finals will open today.

That afternoon, Louie had an unpleasant relationship with the team reporter William Roden.

His recent interviews with players are too frequent, which has affected the Knicks' preparations.

Louie demanded that he stop making private interviews with players, and Roden insisted that it was a collaboration between The Times and the Knicks and that he had no right to interfere.

Roden seems to have forgotten that Louie is not only the coach, but also the president of the Knicks basketball operations department.

This status gave Louis the right not only to interfere, but even to end his cooperation with The Times.

That afternoon, Louie called the Times headquarters and asked for Roden to be repatriated.

The people from the Times whispered good things to him for a long time before Louis changed his decision.

The premise is that Roden agrees to no longer conduct private interviews with Knicks players before the end of the Finals.

Under pressure from headquarters, Roden agreed.

After eliminating the last off-court factor that might have affected the finals, Louie threw himself into the game.

Madison Square Garden

nbcsports prepares the team for the finals.

The main commentator is Marv Albert, and there are two analysts, one is Mike Fratello, a signed commentator of nbc, and the other is an old friend of the fans, the tragic Johnson Johnson, who has just retired.

Retired from the court and regarded by the public as a tragic master of dying people, as he said, he has not faded out of the public eye, and still appears in various places like a popular superstar.

It is also a coup for nbcsports to invite the tragic division as the analyst of the finals.

Jordan, Wilson, The Tragic, the three most popular stars of the new, middle and old age groups gathered together. Everyone wanted to see the head-to-head confrontation between Qiao Wei, and also wanted to hear the tragic gag and share some little stories that the audience didn't know.

Louie says hello to Riley.

He still has his hair slick and shiny and wears a carefully chosen Armani suit.

He is also a coach, and Louie doesn't pay as much attention to appearance as him, let alone choosing a suit carefully, he doesn't even take care of his hair.

"Coach Lu, I've dreamed of this scene countless times," Riley said.

"Oh? Did you dream about the result?"

"No, I didn't get results."

"I have a result." Louis said harshly, "You will still lose, and your runner-up will eventually surpass Erwin."

"I don't think so," Riley said flatly.

"Let's see."

Louie returned to the players and emphasized: "Portland is a fiercer team than us in the regular period. Their defensive intensity is the league's first, the opponent's shooting percentage is the league's first, and the offensive rebounding is the league's first. Number one, so, this series is destined to be a tough fight, and you have to be prepared to face difficulties."

The Knicks' starting lineup is Stockton, Reggie Williams, Wilson, Rodman, and Ewing.

Let Miller come off the bench because he played against the Trail Blazers twice in the regular season, and both of them were missed by the opponent's defensive intensity.

Instead of letting him continue to be taken care of by the opponent in the starting position, it is better to replace him with a sandbag to help him carry some damage.

The Blazers' starting lineup was equally uncharacteristic: Terry Porter, Jordan, Barkley, Crawford Robinson, Anthony Mason.

There is no center, but there are three small forwards who can play power forward. Jordan, who was full-time point guard for one season, played the second position, and Porter, who was a substitute for one season, entered the starting lineup.

Riley lined up like this, obviously using the depth of the flanks to destroy the Knicks' flanks.

The deeper intention is to limit the Knicks' signature exgericky (high dynamic offense).

At the same time, being able to discharge three three-four swings without appearing to be slow is also the secret of the Trail Blazers' offensive rebounding rate, which ranks first in the league.

There are three small forwards who can play the four position in a lineup, which is a major test for the defense's rebound protection pressure.

Seeing the lineup of the Blazers, Louis pulled Ewing, who was ready to play, and said, "They may try their best to grab defensive rebounds in the first quarter."

Ewing rolled his eyes: "Do you think I am air?"

"I'm glad you say that, but if we're going to blow our backboard later..."

You Yan said decisively: "You just hang the poster of Coach Thompson on the training ground of the Blue Palace and scold him for a whole year!"

Louie nodded in relief: "Coach Thompson will definitely be proud of you."

"Yes, he will."

Ewing, the **** who deceived his teachers and his ancestors, has completely wiped the strawberries that John Thompson planted on him.

It can be said that he is the "work" of Louis.

Louie has been in professional basketball for 14 years, and he has only two "works".

One is Sampson and the other is Ewing.

But the two are completely different players.

Sampson is a perfect piece in an ideal state, while Ewing is a flawed nine-point finish.

In contrast, Louie prefers the "missing beauty" on Ewing, and Sampson is too perfect. Of course, if Auerbach suddenly got water in his head and wanted to trade Sampson and Ewing for one, he would have sent the gorilla away without hesitation but with tears in his eyes.

With the Blazers starting three swing forwards, the question is how to arrange the matchups.

Ewing wins the jump ball, starting with regular matchups, Porter vs Stockton and Wilson vs Jordan.

Then the style changed, Crawford on Rodman, Barkley on Williams, Mason on Ewing.

First, a very fast-paced round of offense and defense.

Stockton called the pick-and-roll and passed it to Ewing, who was cutting inside. Ewing made a layup and was interfered by Robinson who came over to help.

Barkley grabbed the defensive rebound and made a long pass to Jordan.

When Jordan launched the fast break, Wilson had already posted it.

Jordan, who was transformed by Riley into a tragic master, hurriedly distributed the ball to his teammates during the fast break, but underestimated the gold content of the Knicks' three first defenses.

Rodman cut off the pass out of nowhere, and another round of defensive counterattacks was pushed up.

When the ball was passed to the frontcourt, Ewing received a pass from his teammate in the paint area, kicked Mason, and was about to attack.

Barkley came up hard and gave him a confrontation.

Under the impact of that intensity, Ewing couldn't find the feeling of a shot, so he could only throw a ball casually.

"Aren't you calling a foul, Dick?" Louie asked.

Referee Dick Bavitta ignored Louie and just stared at the pitch.

Ewing missed a shot, and the two sides broke out a fierce physical confrontation for rebounding.

"This...?"

Rudy Tomjanovich thinks the Knicks are brutal enough.

When they played against the Blazers in the regular season, they weren't like that.

Unexpectedly, in the finals, the strength of the Blazers can be upgraded, and this upgrade is not from the first level to the second level, but directly from the first level to the tenth level.

"I seem to be watching an nhl game." The tragedy remembered the painful memories of the past, "This is not playing basketball at all."

"That's the football strategy that Pat Riley is pushing hard in Portland," said Mike Fratello. "They're going to be a more **** team than the Knicks."

The two sides fought for the ball more and more fiercely, and then the deputy referee Jack O'Donnell called a foul.

They blew the foul on Mason.

At this point, the Knicks feel like they're playing against an alter ego.

The difference is that the Blazers with the Knicks as a template are a bloodthirsty division that has not yet won the championship and is full of desire for the championship.

That's a potential advantage they have against the Knicks.

With a timeout ~www.novelmt.com~ Louie replaced Reggie Williams.

And put Rodman at the 3 and put Sean Kemp at the 4.

Since you want to fight meleely, you have to replace players who are suitable for melee combat.

Although Reggie Williams is a member of the murder press team, he usually uses the defense to murder, not the Blazers' swing forwards.

Camp is one of the Knicks' secret weapons.

Most people only think of him as a parallel third team, but Louie knows that if Kemp is really given enough opportunities, he even has a chance to hit the second team.

He's a player who doesn't know how strong he really is.

The Blazers' swing forward is tough and tough, but except for Barkley, others are not in the eyes of Louis.

So, if you want to fight, you have to fight it.
