The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 564 Hatred is as Deep as the Sea 9/160
Whether or not Isiah Thomas returns, Sampson has to play.
After only 1 minute and 03 seconds of rest, Sampson returned to the court.
Louis, on the other hand, regards Thomas' departure as a good opportunity that must be seized.
What does Thomas mean to the Celtics? Break the security of the full-court press. With him around, the Knicks are afraid of being killed by his speed when they hold a full-court press.
Now, the Celtics' lineup has become Ainge, Lewis, Bird, Laimbeer, Sampson, a lineup in which only Ainge can actually dribble the ball across the half.
With a gloomy expression, Louis adjusted the lineup on the field.
"!#@…%"
"Benjamin, Dennis, Alex, Michael Cooper, John Selley...littlelu wants to take every opportunity!" Brent Musberg said in amazement, "Hubby, do you think Kay Can the Walters make it through?"
Brown, who swore before the opening game that the Celtics would win, no longer has any confidence.
He shook his head and said, "I don't know ... Injury is a huge x-factor, which completely changes the direction of the series."
"What is certain is that without Isaiah, the Celtics will play extremely hard against the Knicks' full-court pressure."
Brown just said that the Celtics had a hard time, and Garden home commentator Johnny Most directly called the Knicks' murderous pressing team a "killing machine."
"If the referee doesn't find a way to contain the Knicks' shameful actions, the game will become very dangerous!"
Celtics supporters have never been so worried. One of the biggest differences between the Knicks and the Lakers is their style of play.
The Lakers' showtime looked glamorous, but they couldn't stand up to the Celtics' old-school offensive and defensive strength. The Big Three of Magic, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Wilkins were not opponents of Bird, Sampson, and Thomas.
The biggest difference with the Knicks is that although they don't have players who can compete with the Big Three, they have a group of bloodthirsty lunatics.
Thanks to Byrd's dominant game3 for Louie to flip that switch.
This is a point of no return. Maybe the Knicks will become a worse-rated team than the Bad Boys in another timeline, maybe not, but their style of play will affect the entire league, for sure.
Wilson scored with an extra penalty.
34 to 27
With a gap of 7 points, the four Knicks stayed in the first half, and Sely returned to the backcourt to avoid being stolen by a long pass.
Angie has the ball and it's Stevens guarding him.
Stevens' close defense, hand movements, frequent physical contact and confrontation ready to bring people down at any time made Angie angry.
Unable to find an opening in the defense, Ainge was so angry that he swung his left elbow at Stevens on the spot.
There is a saying that referees sympathize with teams that are underdogs.
"Are you kidding, isn't this a foul?"
Hugh Hollins is still regretting calling Thomas' foul by ignoring the elbow that happened right in front of his eyes.
"You better stop interfering with my work!" Hollins said angrily.
"Okay! If you think so, then anything that happens later will be your responsibility!" Louis sneered.
Louie's threat made Hollins uneasy. He knew that the young coach always said what he said.
Louie's threat implied a message that the game might be out of control. Angie swung his elbow and was not called a foul by the referee, so Rodman started to attack Bird.
Cooper also took an aggressive approach to chasing Lewis.
Lambiel wanted to help Angie out of the siege, which happened to allow Wilson to discover the opportunity for revenge. He hasn't settled the accounts with Lambiel yet in the first quarter.
Now is a good opportunity, Wilson rushed towards Lambiel at full speed, it seemed that he lost control, he didn't seem to be heading towards someone, but in the end, he knocked Lambiel forward one meter from behind.
"Beep!"
It was one of the roughest fouls of the night, and Wilson took a t on the spot. The moment the referee blew his whistle, Ainge slammed the ball into Stevens' head.
Stevens subdued him on the ground with his size advantage on the spot, preparing for a free fight.
"Damn it!" Auerbach roared. "Is there any **** order in this game?"
Hugh Hollins blew his whistle frequently, but it didn't work. One side whistled, another accident happened there, and the other side controlled it. The two who had just stopped started to face each other again.
"Lu, you have to control your people!"
The referee Hollins completely lost control of the game, and the assistant referee Jack O'Donnell came over and said: "Too many people have been injured."
"Don't get me wrong, Jack, there are so many problems because your judgment standards are not uniform!" Louis raged at O'Donnell, "The foul that should be called is not called, so the players will be angry, but now they want Blame me for losing control? Isn’t it the referee’s duty to control the scale and rhythm of the game, and you ruined the game!”
"I know, but I'm not the referee." O'Donnell dismissed the blame, "But if you turn a basketball game into a boxing match, I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with the aftermath, right?"
The conflict lasted for several minutes, and when Hollins and O'Donnell both promised to unify the penalty standards, Louis shouted to stop the players who wanted to carry the conflict to the end.
Both the enemy and the enemy became full of hatred, and the fans began to name and curse the Knicks players. Moreover, they were well-trained, and the whole audience shouted a name, cursed together, and then replaced.
The Knicks kept the murder tight, and the referee whistled more often.
That's a normal measure, and it's the same when the Celtics are counter-pressing.
Throughout the second quarter, the Knicks and Celtics seemed to be possessed, pressing and pressing.
The Celtics' full-court press isn't as strong as the Knicks', but given the fact that the Murder Press doesn't have a pure point guard, even a mediocre one can work.
Louis doesn't care about turnovers, even if they have more turnovers than the Celtics, the Knicks have the upper hand on the scene.
Because the Knicks' defense is the best in the league, the Celtics successfully dribbled the ball through the half court and basically handed the ball to their star.
Sampson and Bird, the offense of the two saved the poor efficiency of the Celtics.
Bird constantly uses himself as a screen to attract defenses. Sampson shoots three-pointers from the outside, pulls up from the mid-range, draws fouls with the ball, and makes low-post turnaround shots. No other insider can use such a variety of offenses like him. means to dominate the game.
Seeing that Sampson is still strong, the Celtics supporters all gave a "hoo" in gratitude.
However, Louis quietly replaced Ewing and McHale, and the murder press changed into a 2-1-2 full-court press.
For nine straight minutes, Wilson was the full-court tight-look first-line defender in pursuit of Danny Ainge or another Celtics ballhandler.
His surging enthusiasm inspired the whole team, and it is also the key reason why the Knicks continued to lead the Celtics without fear of Sampson's explosion.
Wilson's score in the second quarter was just a response to Lewis's ball and a 2+1 counterattack to smash Thomas.
Louie has never been so proud of him. Like Ewing, he has a selfless heart willing to sacrifice personal offensive opportunities in order to make the team better.
Wilson and Louie are different from any other wing superstar that Louie has ever seen, past or future, who puts all his energy into defense, regardless of offense, like Wilson.
It was this passion that made Wilson's pressing defense last for a full 10 minutes.
Until the Celtics' final attack in the second quarter, he forced Bird to defend.
The score was 49 to 41.
The Knicks led by 8 points. Due to the strength of the defense and the hatred and hostility of the defenses on both sides, the offensive efficiency of both sides has fallen off a cliff.
Without Sampson, perhaps the Celtics would have collapsed in the second quarter.
Wilson's defense made Bird embarrassed. His back could not exert strength, and it was inconvenient to move with his feet.
Is this the best in history?
Many who were waiting to see him fail were thinking contemptuously.
Bird tried a shot and was blocked by Wilson.
Fortunately, the ball returned to the hand, and Bird rose again. Wilson took off for the second time, but he didn't expect that it was Bird's fake move. The time was just pressed to the last second, and Bird made a jumper with a time difference.
At the moment of the shot, his back convulsed, followed by tingling pain that swept across his body.
"Shuh!!"
"Larry Legend never backs down from a challenge!" Most yelled.
44 to 49
By the end of the first half, Bird looked miserable, his eyes closed, his lips trembling, and he walked slowly towards his teammates.
Louis looked at Bird's back, feeling more and more dissatisfied with Jones.
Why let the redneck stick to the game? Could it be that in his eyes, keeping the Celtics' five consecutive championships is more important than the health of the bumpkins?
"He looks like it's over." Wilson had mixed feelings about Bird—hate and admiration.
Louis couldn't empathize with Byrd's pain. If it was him, he would not take any potential risks.
But what about Byrd?
Can he really leave the game behind and throw the burden on Sampson?
"Trust me, he'll climb up if he does."
Louis finished speaking and walked towards the reporters on the scene.
Fans on the sidelines ~www.mtlnovel.com~ cursed him with the most vicious words in the English language.
"Dog shit", "venomous snake with human face and animal heart", "Chinese worm", "yellow monkey", "villain without species"... From personality to spirit, from his blood to his skin color, everything, everything, included.
"Coach Lu, I've never seen a more intense game than this. Do you think the confrontation between the two sides will escalate in the second half?"
Louis ignored the cursing from the audience, "I don't know, all I can say is that anything can happen."
As he walked to the aisle, he saw Jennifer Beals, who had come to the scene to support Nick, and she was frightened by the monstrous hatred that filled the garden.
"If you win, I'm worried that you won't be able to get out of here..." Jennifer said fearfully.
"Don't worry, they don't have the guts."
