The Rest, Only Noise

"I admit New York has the upper hand in the series matchup and it's a shame to lose 47 points in a single game, but they want to do it again and even win more than tonight?"

"Hehe, I can tell you plainly, it's impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The next day, Hornets coach Alan Bristow responded to Louie's remarks that he would continue to set the Hornets' record for most losses in a single game.

Besides him, the Hornets have others to respond.

For example, Larry Johnson, a strong man who doesn't look simple, said a little angrily: "Coach Lu's words not only insulted us, but also insulted Charlotte. If they can beat us by 50 points, I will retire. !"

Since the next two games were played at the Hornets' home court, the two sides were already at odds, and Louie's words would inevitably lead to the Knicks being full of malice on the road.

However, Larry Johnson said that he would retire after losing, which made Louie laugh.

He remembered what rng's top laner Xiaohu said before a regular game in the summer of the s10 summer split.

The general meaning is the same as Larry Johnson, if you lose, you retire.

In the end, rng really lost, but Xiaohu did not retire, so there is no need to consider whether Larry Johnson's ruthless words of betting on retirement are possible.

Impossible, absolutely impossible, in the Hornets' rebuttal to Louie.

Instead, it was Larry Johnson's words that brought more attention to the game.

Hornets players have expressed their determination.

Glen Rice said to play the next game as the most important game of his career.

Rex Chapman thinks that they may not be as good as the Knicks, but as long as they are united, let alone lose by 50 points, it is not impossible to win.

Only veteran Dale Ellis did not support Larry Johnson.

It's not news that Ellis and the Hornets' young people don't deal with it. Regarding this storm, his view is: "Unless I have a good hand and take 30 shots, we can't stop New York."

Also, Ellis is the famous Louie Blow.

"Although a lot of people don't believe that we will lose 50 points in game 3 - including myself - but historically Coach Lu will always get what he wants."

This is similar to Durant's famous phrase "From the perspective of history, courage always loses".

It's just that no one took his words seriously.

Before the start of game 3, the league first announced the winners of the major awards in the regular season.

First is the best lineup: Jordan, Drexler, Wilson, Manning, Sampson.

Best Team Second Team: Petrovic, Pippen, Barkley, Malone, Olajuwon.

All-NBA Third Team: Price, Dumars, (Larry) Johnson, Gaithers, Ewing.

All-Defensive Team: Dumars, Jordan, Wilson, Rodman, Olajuwon.

All-Defensive Second Team: Pippen, Marley, Kemp, Robinson, Ewing.

dpoy: Rodman.

Sixth Man of the Year: Clifford Robinson.

Coach of the Year: Billy Donovan.

General Manager of the Year: Lewis Shafir.

Louie hasn't seen a season more competitive than this year since he entered pro basketball in 1978.

Although Sampson's sword is not old, in addition to occupying a pit, his defense is no longer comparable to Olajuwon and Ewing, and even Mutombo is better than him.

Even though Sampson still averages 2.8 blocks per game, his sweeping area has dropped significantly except for the basket guard.

In the playoffs, Sampson is still the number one center on offense and defense, but his physical fitness is not enough to support him through the long regular season.

Therefore, if you want to survive the regular season smoothly, you have to make trade-offs at both ends of the offense and defense.

Just like Abdul-Jabbar, Sampson's defense was the first to degrade, followed by rebounding.

The All-NBA shortlist shows just how introverted the East is.

Three best teams, 15 players, 10 in the East.

However, even though the league has taken care of everyone as much as possible, there are still voices of dissatisfaction.

The media that made this voice came from New York.

They have two complaints.

Isn't Ewing a double first? Why did that old immortal Sampson occupy a hole?

How is Olajuwon better than Ewing?

Ewing's fall to the third team angered the New York media.

But the alliance makes sense.

Thanks to the addition of new stars like Yu Tiancan and the growth of Kemp, Rodman has another rebounding season - Ewing's average this season has dropped to 20.4 points and 9.6 rebounds.

As far as this data is concerned, being able to enter the third team depends on the second ranking in the Knicks league and the geographical superiority of New York City.

Otherwise, the Sun's Doherty, the Magic's super rookie Shaquille O'Neal, are eligible to replace Ewing.

Therefore, the New York media is overly protective of Ewing's call for Qu Chunquan, and is not taking it seriously.

In addition to complaining about Ewing, they also complained about Camp.

They think Kemp can at least make the third team. Why should Larry Johnson make the third team? The two head-to-head matches in the semifinals were both smashed by Kemp.

For this kind of hindsight, the alliance has always ignored it.

After all, except for fmvp, other NBA awards are based on the performance of the regular season. If someone has outstanding performance in the playoffs, they must give him the award. What about some mvp who were smashed in the first round?

What makes this unreasonable is that the NBA only has awards for the regular season, not the playoffs.

The regular season has the best team, and the playoffs should have it, and the playoff team should be more valuable than the regular season, just as the playoff performance is far more valuable in the eyes of fans than the regular season performance.

However, half a century has passed, and the alliance has never moved this idea.

Interestingly, even if the media is calling out there, Kemp, the boss, also thinks Larry Johnson has his place.

Before the game 3, the Knicks were on the road, but they were not low-key at all.

The Charlotte media wanted to give Louie a chance to reform, and after the outcry from fans, they asked Louie again if he still wanted a 50-point win over the Hornets on the road.

"I want to congratulate the Hornets, you have a loyal group of fans, so I'm looking forward to tonight's game even more. I don't know if these fans will be as loyal as they are now after watching the Hornets lose 50 at home. "

Taking advantage of Louis's east wind, Kemp told reporters: "I will prove that I am more worthy of the best team than some people."

The Charlotte people rightfully expressed their anger.

They don't know where the Knicks are.

Game 2 was a surprise for the Hornets and their supporters.

Just like Paul fans don't take the 58 tragedy as a big deal. If it hadn't signed a max salary with the popular Underworld team and didn't play a max salary player after the contract came into effect, 58 wouldn't have become the "xx" in the basketball circle. ".

That night, after the game started, Charlotte, who was full of anger, wanted to block the Knicks by force.

However, Louis played the starting lineup of Raouf, Ainge, Miller, Wilson and Kemp tonight.

Although the Hornets' plan is to reduce the Knicks' hit rate through the traditional skills of the Eastern strong teams (hand-to-hand combat).

But 5out specializes in all kinds of low-energy defense.

Useless hand-to-hand combat will only make loopholes in the defense line.

This night, every time the Knicks launched tactics, the Hornets' wings would leak.

Miller felt hot, scoring 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, 7 three-pointers in the half, and 11 three-pointers in the whole game, and scored a game-high 46 points in front of former world No. 1 scorer Dale Ellis.

At the same time, this is also a single-game scoring record for Miller in the playoffs.

During the game, after the Hornets' melee defense failed, they wanted to put pressure on the Knicks through their inside advantage.

As long as the interior can establish a dominant advantage, the Knicks will have to abandon the 5out lineup.

As a result, Wilson and Kemp proved worthy of All-Defensive Team selection.

Especially Camp, as the center of the 5out lineup, he not only prevented Song Tao to death, but also built an insurmountable no-fly zone on the defensive end.

The effect of Wilson's cameo at the small-ball 4 was equally surprising.

Whether grabbing rebounds or sweeping high, he played no less than Kemp and Rodman at the 4.

Larry Johnson, who claimed to retire if he lost 50 points tonight, brushed the data to 23 points and 15 rebounds in garbage time, but it was useless.

Wasps are humiliating.

Because they not only can't decide their own life and death, they can't even control their losses.

When the deficit reaches 51, the Knicks will make a 3 to take the lead to 52, then let the Hornets easily score a 2, and the deficit will be 50.

Remember how in the well-known Japanese fantasy sports animation "Kuroko and His Harems", how Teiko humiliated his opponent in the final battle of his junior high school era? In order to control the score to the number they want, they take the initiative to help the opponent score.

Louie is a person of quality. He will not let players deliberately shoot to their own baskets in order to control 50 points.

But it's the fact that they don't shoot to their own baskets that makes the point-control process more humiliating for Charlotte than a 50-point loss.

Before the end of the game ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Hornets' home spectator seats are empty.

By the time the final whistle blew, fewer than 5 percent of fans had witnessed the result.

132 to 82

The Knicks beat the Hornets with a 50-point advantage, once again breaking the opponent's single-game loss record.

At the end of the game, the Hornets players were in a trance.

Only Ellis looked "I knew it would be like this", he dismissed the reporter's interview application with disdain, and left alone.

Alan Bristow didn't expect Louis' revenge to be so fierce, he didn't show any sympathy at all, he just stomped his feet on their faces.

"I just want to know," Louie asked the reporter with a smirk, "where is Larry Johnson's retirement ceremony held?"
