The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 1620 heal yourself

UPDATE: Gilbert Arenas' 40-game suspension ends after Game 2 of Eastern Conference Finals.

Will Arenas be back in Game 3?

Will his teammates welcome his return?

Is his comeback good or bad for the Heat?

Billy Donocchi put a smoke screen: "GA has been participating in five-on-five confrontation training for some time. We think he is in good condition, but whether he will come back remains to be tested by more training."

Duncan expressed his position on behalf of the Heat team: "Gilbert is an important member of the team. He has proven his strength on various stages. In any case, we are ready for this."

The reason why Duncan needs to express this attitude for the team is because there have been rumors that the Heat are dissatisfied with Arenas in the outside world.

Because the inside story of the gunmen incident is not transparent.

It's not clear whether Arenas carried a gun with the team on the road.

Arenas himself does not admit it, and the alliance has no definite evidence, but no one will believe Arenas' one-sided statement on this matter.

Regardless of how much impact Arenas' gun-holding has had on the team, and no matter how much Arenas' suspension for 40 games has disrupted the Heat's preparations, the fact that he carried a gun when he went to the away game made many teammates This is unacceptable.

Duncan said so, but the negative impact of Arenas has not disappeared.

However, this incident is enough for the Celtics coaching staff to confirm one thing, that is, Arenas will come back when he can, as Donovan said.

The 40-game suspension period has expired, and the Heat, who are behind 0 to 2, must defend their home court.

Without Arenas, the Heat don't have enough ceiling potential.

Therefore, even if he has to take risks, Arenas must come back.

Before the start of the Eastern Conference Finals, Louis was a little worried that Arenas' comeback would turn the Heat into a terrible complete body, but now, he has a completely opposite view.

The same is true of Pat Riley: "If Miami chooses to let Arenas start in Game 3, it will ruin their entire season's efforts in one fell swoop."

"Yes, if they are smarter, they should choose to let Arenas come off the bench." Mike Budenholzer said.

"If it were me, I wouldn't let Arenas come back in the third game." Louie said surprisingly, "This is not considering his unresolved off-court problems. This is a complete basketball problem. In my opinion Come on, if the Heat can't prove they can win the Eastern Conference Finals without Arenas, it won't change anything with Arenas back."

Steve Kerr listened carefully.

The Celtics coaching staff meeting is a learning opportunity for a rookie coach like him.

Not only Louie, but also Riley and Bird sometimes come to the meeting. Budenholzer is an excellent coach with many years of experience as an assistant coach. Their thinking and way of understanding the game is very important for Cole to switch from player thinking to coaching as soon as possible. Thinking helps a lot.

After Louie finished speaking, Cole asked: "Is this because Arenas has no ability to reverse the results of the series?"

According to Cole's understanding, if the Heat replaced Arenas in the third game, it meant that they felt that they would not even have a chance to win the game without Arenas. With the strength of the Heat, their expectations for the series should not be That's all.

But Kerr felt that there were deeper reasons that had not been considered.

He needs answers from Louie.

Louis smiled: "Not only that."

Sure enough... Cole took out a pen and paper, ready to write down what Louis was going to say next.

"There is also a psychological issue involved here." Louis said, "Gilbert Arenas should feel guilty about the team and his teammates. If the Heat let him play as soon as the suspension period expires, it will not only ease this psychology. , will also amplify his arrogance. In this way, he will feel that he is irreplaceable, fight for his teammates, the desire to make up for his mistakes will be significantly reduced, prove his worth, and put himself above the team. Motivation has also increased significantly. If you add and subtract, you will have a positive and negative effect, and the people of Miami will not be able to get the kind of return they want in Arenas."

Cole discovered that this matter is actually related to psychology.

But Riley thought about the series that made him ponder and couldn't get an answer many years ago-that round, in hindsight, the Knicks should not have won the series no matter how they looked at it, and why they still won.

Did the Knicks go through similar psychological construction back then?

Riley knew he might never have an answer.

But by Louis' side, he can catch the clues of those years. What Louis did shows one thing, he is extremely sensitive to people's hearts. He can capture Arenas's psychology today. Perhaps, he also captured To the psychology of everyone in the Knicks and Blazers.

Including his (Riley's own) psychology.

Thinking of this, Riley found himself thinking of Louie as a god.

This is clearly not something humans can do.

However, if Louis didn't see through everyone in that round of the series, how could he accurately grasp the players' psychology?

Riley had no answer for this.

This is the reason why he accepted Louie's invitation to come to Boston as an ordinary teaching assistant, but until today, he still has no answer.

But as Louie analyzed the Heat, Riley felt he was getting closer to that answer.

After the coaching meeting, Louie walked out of the office and came to the court to watch the players practice.

Today's tactical class is led by Oakley and Sampson, and it is now over, and the next thing to do is the special training for the players.

Special training, also known as personal training, is mainly used to train players' special skills.

Under normal circumstances, these trainings are completed independently by the players themselves.

Therefore, there is room for laziness.

Zaza Pachulia, for example, is a master of laziness.

In the two-hour training session, except for the tactics class, he would be lazy whenever he could.

Today, Pachulia was sitting eating a banana when someone asked him, "Zaza, are you done training?"

Pachulia gave the man a blank look, "Even if I become the hardest-working player in the team, I still can't start. Why work so hard?"

Unfortunately, the Georgian doesn't have eyes in the back of his head, otherwise he wouldn't have said that in Louie's face.

"Ahem..." Louis made a little noise.

Pachulia Rick, who was very sensitive to this voice, stood up and shouted: "Who... Vasilis, where are my **** sneakers? I said I don't like these sneakers, what the **** are you doing? of?!"

Spanoulis was furious because Pachulia mistook him for a caddy.

Then, Louis smiled kindly: "Zaza, I don't think you need sneakers, as long as you have enough bananas."

Pachulia was wronged but insisted: "Coach, you misunderstood, I just... just...replenish my strength! Yes, replenish my strength! Bananas can replenish the electrolytes I lost..."

"Really? How are you recovering now?" Louis asked.

Knowing that this sentence was a pitfall, Pachulia stepped on it without fear: "I have fully recovered, and it is not a problem to have another training session."

"That's it, then go to run laps, let me see how much your physical strength has recovered, just run 20 laps. Vasilis, you come to supervise, if Zaza runs less laps, you will dig a hole and kill yourself Buried."

"Okay, Coach!"

Spanoulis's heart was filled with the pleasure of avenging himself.

Louis walked away with a smile, that's great, what he likes most is such a united and friendly team.

Time flies ~www.mtlnovel.com~ A day later, the Celtics set off for Miami.

They will have two matchups with the Heat here.

If they are lucky, they can win tickets to the finals in the away game. If they are not lucky, the series may return to the original point in the away game (the big score will be tied). A successful mentality, but although Louis is honest and honest, he is actually a man who is not easily satisfied, and he wants to sweep away.

Then, on the day of Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals, the Miami Heat spread a message through the media like a child: Due to poor running-in, Gilbert Arenas is doubtful to play in Game 3.

After reading the news, Louie didn't know whether Donovan thought others were fools, or the Heat liked to lie to themselves. Anyway, the Celtics were all prepared to come back in the third game according to Arenas.

He believed that the Heat, driven to the edge of a cliff, would go to the doctor in a hurry.

Then heal yourself.
