The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 145 The momentum is in full swing, the shadows remain
"The rest, only noise new( Find the latest chapter!
The next day, the alliance issued a processing announcement.
Isaiah Thomas was suspended for five games and fined $20,000.
Kenny Benson took a few heavy punches and was advised by the doctor to take a truce for more than 2 weeks. He refused and had to wear a mask to continue to participate in the game. After all, the Pistons can't do without him now.
There was little time to rest, and the next day, the Celtics faced back-to-back home games against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
This is Louis's hometown team, and they have just gone through the darkest period in team history.
Every time he saw the knight's current situation, Louie's hatred and gratitude for that Ranjiba, whose name he could not remember, deepened.
He almost threw himself into the net.
After years of torture by Ted Steppi, the Cavaliers averaged just 3,900 seats last season. According to the league's optimistic estimates, they are definitely falsely reporting attendance figures, and the average attendance per game should not exceed 2,000 at most.
Over three seasons, the Cavaliers lost $20 million due to a series of poor operations.
Steppi was hated by Clevelands, and at one point he wanted to move the team to Toronto, but the league didn't want to lose Cleveland's market, so they forced Steppi to sell the team.
Forcing Steppi to sell the team is far from bringing them back from the dead, and it has to find the right buyer.
But who wants to take over the worst team that didn't have a draft pick before 1987?
A businessman named Gordon Gund showed up, and he asked the league to give the Cavaliers some facilitation or he wouldn't buy a team that would cost him money in the long run.
The league is very clear that Gund is not deliberately bargaining, he is serious, the Cavaliers have no draft picks, and their strength is the worst in the league. If they don't want to find a way to remedy them, no one will want to take this advantage.
So the league agreed to sell a first-round pick to the Cavaliers every year for the next four years.
In addition, the introduction of the salary cap made the cost of managing a team controllable, and Gund decided to buy the team.
Today's Cavaliers are unquestionably rotten, and no matter where he comes from, Louie won't let his players show mercy.
Right off the bat, the Celtics built an advantage.
Although Isaiah Thomas is not there, Bird alone is enough to operate the No. 1 system and the No. 2 system.
Even in a three system, he can help Gerald Henderson finish offense with his off-ball threat.
"These guys make the game look beautiful," Heinsohn said intoxicated.
Louie arranged the players' playing time reasonably, and the overall situation in the third quarter was decided, so he let Bird rest.
Tonight, Bird played only 29 minutes and easily scored 26 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists. The Celtics beat the Cavaliers with 22 points.
The Celtics had six players in double figures and scored at least 130 points in two consecutive games.
Next, there's a three-day offseason.
The third opponent is the Milwaukee Bucks, who eliminated them last season.
At the beginning of the new season, the Bucks were not in a good state. They played three games, 1 win and 2 losses.
The Boston Globe's Bob Ryan gave a preview of the game, and he's not optimistic about the Celtics.
"Obviously, without Isiah Thomas, the Bucks have plenty of fire at the back and the Celtics are unstoppable."
Judging from the results, he said that the Bucks' backline is full of firepower and the Celtics are unstoppable, and there is not much problem.
The Bucks' double gun, Sidney Moncrief and "Torch" Bridgeman scored 56 points, but Louis continued the routine against the Bucks in the playoffs last season.
No second player on the Bucks team has made a 3-pointer except for Bridgeman.
Bird remembered the failure of last season, and his ears seemed to be echoing the rebuke from Louis after the game. He vented all his dissatisfaction in the game, scoring 46 points, 16 rebounds and 11 assists.
Louie's offensive system makes him feel like a duck to water.
Bird looked so tough that Don Nelson was unconvinced by the loss, telling reporters: "Bring Larry Bird to our team and we'll win."
Louie didn't mind at all that he was relying on Bird to win.
What can a coach rely on to win without relying on the players under his hand? Couldn't they play in person?
"When you have a player like Larry, you only need to think about how to use his ability." Louie said ashamedly, "Because our tactical system is not perfect, Larry's strength has only played a part. Little by little, there is still room for improvement.”
The Celtics' momentum is so ferocious that no team seems to be able to stop them in the recent schedule.
Walkers were tortured and killed;
the bull is defeated;
Although the Washington Bullets dragged on to the last minute, Sampson made a free-throw line jumper.
Then, Thomas came back, and his first game back was against his hometown team, the Chicago Bulls. Louie deliberately reduced Bird's playing time to let him play.
Thomas held back his energy for many days and burst out, scoring 39 points and personally kicking his hometown team to death at the Chicago Coliseum.
"The fans were booing Isiah because he looked so excited when the game was out of suspense."
The Celtics opened the season with nine consecutive victories and easily climbed to the top of the league.
In the tenth game, they need to go to Denver to challenge the Nuggets.
This is a special team.
"Babies, I heard the Denverians are totally off-guard, this is a good game!" M.L. Carr exclaimed excitedly.
"That suits you well," Bird joked bitterly. "They never defend and you never attack."
Karl said confidently: "Because I only shoot key shots!"
"Blow it harder and we'll believe it," Louie shouted.
"Fuck! I'm serious, if you don't believe me, you can give me the key ball tonight!" Karl promised, "I'm absolutely amazing!"
The Nuggets are a strange team. There may be only this team in NBA history that dares to put a lot of effort into the offensive end.
Few teams will try to force them to defend because it's not worth it.
So Karl said he could make a lore. Considering the Nuggets' defense, it's not uncommon to throw him a lore, so he was booed unanimously by the entire team.
Ranbir, the thorn, likes to tease people who don't fit in.
This time, he chose the long-silent veteran Maxwell.
"Cedric, why haven't you spoken lately?" Lambiel said slyly. "What did you say to me when I first came? You have to be brave enough to express yourself, why did you forget?"
Maxwell raised his eyes and said calmly, "Don't mess with me."
"Oh I see!" Ranbir teased, knowingly asked, "You're not happy! Because you can only play as a substitute now, you can't compete with Larry and you can't compete with Ralph, don't be unhappy, you want to start so much, I I'll give you the spot, can you play center?"
"Guys, can Cedric play center?" Laimbeer yelled, embarrassing Maxwell.
Maxwell said angrily: "I told the **** don't mess with me!"
"We're on the plane, calm me down!" Louie shouted.
Laimbeer is a complete villain, and he always likes to do things that hurt others and not himself: "If I play well and play well and suddenly lose my starting position, I must be angry, eh."
"Shutup!!" Louie yelled.
There's a problem with Maxwell, Ranbir just likes to keep the wound open.
But Louie has no solution to Maxwell's emotions, because he has to substitute Maxwell, and it's not because of the opponent's lack of ability, but there must be a personal substitute between Sampson and Maxwell.
Maxwell can't play center. If he could, Louie would have let Laimbeer go to the sixth man position.
Therefore, there is a rivalry between him and Sampson.
Fitch wanted Sampson to start as early as two years ago, and Maxwell vehemently opposed it. And when Louie became head coach, he had a chat with Maxwell. Surprisingly, Maxwell agreed very happily this time.
So Louis didn't think much about other places.
Now that the Celtics are on a winning streak, Maxwell is the only one unhappy.
He is only 28 years old, and it is the year when he played~www.mtlnovel.com~ He can play the main force in almost all teams except the Celtics, and no one is willing to substitute in his situation.
It's normal for him to be emotional, and Louie's approach is to give him about the same amount of playing time as the starter.
But some people care about the name of the starting lineup.
The starting lineup represents the status of the team. As the only remaining veteran from the Havlicek era, he thinks his status is stable, but out of respect and trust for Louis, he accepted the arrangement of the bench, but psychologically it was difficult.
During the trip, Louis thought of a deal more than once.
Only by going to other teams can Maxwell get what he wants, and by the way, the Celtics can get as much immediate power and assets as possible.
It is a pity that trading a player of Maxwell's level is not something that Louis can decide alone.
