The Knicks lost just one of the nine regular-season games remaining in the 1987-88 season.
In the final game of the regular season, the Knicks host the Pacers.
The Pacers are one of the tank teams this season, and the Knicks have a hard time losing.
Louie decided to play a trick that might cost them the game, and he rested all of his main players.
That is, Stockton, Miller, Wilson, McHale, and Ewing all rest.
This move definitely angered their opponents, but the Knicks used to replace the main lineup is not bad.
The starters of the regular season ending battle were Hornacek, Ellis, Rodman, Oakley, and John Salley.
Their second unit still has three future All-Stars.
With Wayman Tisdale as the core, the Pacers launched a fierce attack on the Knicks.
In addition to Tisdale, the Pacers also have an acquaintance of Louie - Horace Grant.
In another time line, Grant was the third-in-command of the Bulls' first dynasty, but here, his future is hard to say.
His competitor is Tisdale. It took the Pacers three years to finally determine that they will continue to reuse Tisdale. There is only a dead end waiting for them.
But without reusing Tisdale, they also have no other players available.
Grant is good, but it's not the core material, so slacking off is the only way to go.
This is the sadness of the weak teams in small cities, they can hardly rely on signings to change their predicament.
The Knicks rested all their main players. On the backside of their bench, the men in suits, headed by Yousi, sat in a row, and they didn't look like they were injured.
It definitely counts as a mockery of an opponent, but how sure are the Pacers to respond to the Knicks?
The answer is 0.
They can't respond.
After the start of the game, the Knicks relied on Hornacek and Ellis' perimeter offense, and then used the defense of Seley and Rodman to lay the foundation for the trend of the game.
Louis is not very competitive.
The Knicks are now 64-17, firmly second in the East and third in the league behind the 68-win Celtics and 66-win Blazers.
Also, the gap was so "big" that they couldn't catch up even if they won the last game.
So it doesn't matter whether Louis himself wins this game or not, so he makes substitutions like a revolving beacon.
Those who don't usually have the opportunity to play, got a lot of time tonight.
At the most outrageous time, the Knicks lineup was Billy Donovan, Cooper, Stevens, Brad Rohos, Song Tao.
To be honest, this lineup is bad enough.
Not counting this, Donovan has only played 2 games this season. The competition in the Knicks team is too fierce. His role in the team is often more like the assistant of the assistant coach.
Louie or any other assistant would have him do things that aren't the player's job.
Stevens is basically a full-time player in the Murder Press group.
If the Knicks use a murder press, he'll get more minutes, if not, less or no minutes. Because his offense really rotted to new heights.
Luo Haosi and Song Tao are a pair of crouching dragons and phoenixes. The former is always put on the No. 2 position by Louis, while the latter is Ewing's substitute, and his performance is good or bad.
The most outrageous thing is that this lineup is also matched with Cooper, a favorite for the All-Defensive Team of the Year.
This is the foundation of the Knicks, and even three teams have stars.
There are three players with the best performance tonight, followed by Ellis, Rodman and Hornacek.
Hornacek filled the vacancy of Stockton to the greatest extent, and his hand was also very smooth; Rodman began to look a little familiar to Louis, filling the whole court, extremely eye-catching rebounding, single-handedly. 4 points, 17 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks per game, everywhere. That's why every time Louie gets a trade call, everyone wants Rodman.
The Pistons are even willing to trade Robert Parish for Rodman, of course, not a single trade. In addition to Rodman, Louie has to catch Michael Cooper.
This mindless request was rejected by him on the spot.
The more Rodman evolved, the more dangerous Charles Oakley's position became.
The thug that Louis admired so much definitely felt the change. The little brother who was punished casually by him was more important in this team than him.
Rodman's defense is eye-catching enough, but that's not all.
Without Ellis' offense, the Knicks would be hard-pressed to beat the Pacers.
Ellis was almost traded not long ago.
Almost, if there is no final friendship, Louis will definitely send him away.
After dealing with Louie, Ellis changed from the starter to the ninth man of the team.
He averaged less than 20 minutes per game and scored 11 points per game. Last season, he was still a solid starter. Such changes are extremely rare.
That night, Ellis played 37 minutes.
Louie hasn't seen him play so well for a long time, running smoothly, shooting confidently, and shooting more smoothly.
The audience 41 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, in the eyes of Louis, he is the contemporary Klay Thompson.
It's a crime to use someone like that as a backup.
Louie can be sure that this year's Knicks, in terms of lineup depth, are rare in history. No matter which team it is, the thickness of the lineup cannot be compared with them. It stands to reason that winning the championship is stable, but the wheel battle is only a specific tactic in the game and cannot be used as a winning strategy. The Celtics they faced were not a team with a poor lineup.
However, the Celtics are not invulnerable.
If Thomas had made a 3-pointer in the years he was gone, and if Bird hadn't been plagued by a back injury, Louie certainly wouldn't have been "wonderful."
If one of the above two things happened and the other didn't, the Celtics would have no dead ends. Even with the depth of the Knicks' roster, it's nearly impossible to beat the Celtics.
Basketball is so unreasonable. The most typical example is the 18 Cavaliers on another timeline. In the playoffs that year, James' performance has been passed down as a myth, and 21 Durant was shocked by two Eastern Conference semifinals. The brilliant performance is known as just a routine operation in the 18th Zhan playoffs.
Why is there such an impression? Quite simply, in terms of book strength, the Cavaliers that year were the worst in the past 15 years. From the first round, they relied on James, the only super giant in the East, to devote all of their dimensionality-cutting blows to continuously pass the test.
James deserves the title of the first man, and he brought a team that did not deserve to play in the finals to the finals. That's why "Jordan doesn't work either". Because Jordan really didn't have a similar experience, you can't say he's okay with something that didn't happen.
This is the upper limit brought by the super giant.
Under normal circumstances, the upper limit of the Celtics' Big Three is much higher than the current limit of the Knicks' immediate combat power.
However, Bird's back injury and Thomas's three-pointer were always unstable, allowing Louis to see an opportunity.
As for this year's result, he doesn't know.
Donovan's performance is not bad, but there is no surprise.
He is not an NBA-level player, he can only be regarded as a marginal person, and it is difficult to have a chance in a weak team, let alone in the Knicks.
This year, he got few chances, but no wonder Louie.
There's really no way Louie could get him ahead of anyone else.
Tonight, Donovan played 24 minutes, which is the most playing time in a rookie season. With the Knicks system, he got 6 points, 2 rebounds and 7 assists, which is a good number.
In the end, the Knicks defeated the Pacers 114-99.
They finished the regular season with a 65-17 record.
The Pacers' head coach is an old acquaintance of Louie.
The Blazers' meritorious coach, who regards Indiana as the last stop of his career, is Jack Ramsey.
Ramsey is not satisfied with the arrangement of the Knicks game.
"It's a humiliation to us to let the five main players rest." Ramsay's face was very ugly.
Louie didn't want to say it too harshly, and couldn't find a good reason.
"The playoffs are the most important thing, I don't want to increase the risk of injury to the main team in a game that does not affect the rankings~www.mtlnovel.com~ Louis said lightly.
If it was someone else, Louie would change "doesn't affect ranking" to "doesn't matter."
Ramsay wanted to say a few more words, but he couldn't say much.
What else can I say? The Knicks gave it a chance, they didn't take it, it's that simple.
"Well, I hope that giving the main team more rest this game will help you beat the Celtics in the playoffs." Ramsey said yin and yang, "If I can help you, I will be very happy."
"Jack, don't be like this. In the end, it's your own fault." Since the old man refused to speak properly, he couldn't blame Louis for disrespecting the old. "If you guys won this game, you're justifiable to lose your temper now, but you'd better look at the score. I rested the five main players, and in the end you lost 15 points. You say, why did I To let the main team play this game? It won't change whether they play or not. So, you shouldn't be angry."
"In the end, I gave you the chance to beat me, but you didn't live up to your expectations."
Louie spread his hands, and Ramsay's livid expression let him know that from now on, there will be another old coach in the league who has no good words for him.
