The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 581 benj my baby
Wednesday, June 8, 1988.
Memorial Coliseum, Portland, Oregon, USA.
The fourth game of the finals will be held today.
Although only the fourth game was played, the senior officials of the alliance basically arrived at the scene. Because tonight is very likely to determine this year's champion.
The Knicks, already leading 3-0, are likely to end this season.
In order to ensure that no special circumstances arise, the league sent two more stable referees.
Among the active referees, the most respected is Darrell Garretson, and Joe Crawford is widely favored in the industry.
Today's Crawford is not the future guy who feels offended because the player smiles too wickedly, so the anger in his heart goes straight to the top of his head, and because there is no hair on it to burn, he punishes the player who makes the funny laugh. The bald referee who played.
In 1988, Crawford had black, shiny and shiny hair.
"Two, to be honest, I don't want you to let them take advantage of them because they are 0 to 3 behind." Louis said jokingly.
Garretson looked at Louis vigilantly: "Little Lu, you don't expect to get any benefits from me."
"I don't want any benefits, I just hope that the game style is more inclusive and open." Louis chatted, and Jordan, who has been criticized for his selfish style of play these days, came to say hello.
Jordan's attitude is clear: "Even if you lead 3-0, don't think that the victory is guaranteed, it's not over yet!"
Louis smiled lightly: "I think so too, Michael, even if you are 0 to 3 behind, and if you can average 40 points per game, the team behind you can explain it for you. But, I don't want to hear Excuses, so I'm going to find a way to make a fool of you tonight."
Jordan knew that the villain of the Knicks' evil force was Louis.
He has a competitive nature, and he likes confrontation very much. What Louis said made his fighting spirit great.
"You can try it!"
Jordan, who has reached the peak of his personal ability, is confident that no team in the world can limit his performance.
The Blazers may not win, but he can also play a beautiful game.
That's a problem with Jordan's debut in the West.
Western teams tend to be more technical and tactical, while the Eastern likes hand-to-hand confrontation.
Jordan's body has never been honed by the teams in the West. Only when he reaches the finals can he know how the championship-level Eastern Conference teams fight.
What's more, the "Jordan Law" will also be available today.
Louie believed Jordan was about to have the toughest game of his life.
The two sides started, the Blazers continued the configuration of Game3, the Knicks side, Rodman entered the starting list, playing the third position, Wilson continued to play the second position, and the other positions remained unchanged.
Ewing won the jump ball.
The Knicks' offense started with Stockton's breakthrough defensive formation.
McHale runs to the free throw line and the ball is passed.
Nance's defense went straight to McHale's front.
However, it's still a bit off.
McHale made a decisive jump shot and made it.
2 to 0
Hubie Brown noticed that the Knicks were more extreme in shrinking the penalty area tonight than in previous games, and the off-ball confrontation was very intense.
Rodman put his hand against Jordan to prevent him from leaning in. Drexler just caught the ball in the low post and was flanked.
Even Terry Porter, the most reliable pitcher, was left short.
Drexler passes the ball to Porter.
Porter's two-step jumper inside the three-point line responded to the Knicks' shorting.
The Knicks' counterattack was gorgeous, and Stockton made a long pass.
Wilson, who was going down quickly, caught the ball, was unlucky, and suddenly passed back to Rodman who followed up.
Rodman went straight to the basket and dunked.
It was too fast, and Wilson and Rodman, who fought back, had a tacit understanding like twin brothers.
The two stayed in the frontcourt and forced the Blazers to pass the ball to players other than guards.
Jordan had to take on the task of dribbling the ball across half court.
As a result, Rodman led the defense. He knew that Jordan had the fastest first step in the league, so he didn't fit close, but just opened up and kept interference.
Jordan dribbled the ball and found that his teammates opened up the space, so he simply stopped passing. He hit the end alone, and suddenly received the ball at the free throw line and made an emergency stop.
Rodman interfered in place, allowing Jordan to hit the iron for the first time tonight.
It was almost the same process. The Knicks' Wilson dribbled the ball in the backcourt. The difference was that the Blazers had no one to lead the defense forward.
Wilson dribbles to the spot where Jordan missed, also starts a jumper, but he makes it.
"Is this the best defensive player of the year?" Louie sneered angrily, "Mike, are you underestimating our Benj?"
Before Louis traveled, he had heard many stories about "don't mess with Jordan".
He has to say, it's nice to break the taboo, whether it's provoking Jordan or not controlling the second brother.
Jordan, who was getting angry, wanted to go to a deeper position to ask for the ball. The cover of his teammates helped him get rid of the defense. When Ewing saw that he was going to the basket, he stepped forward decisively and blocked his way with his body and black iron elbows.
A second later, Jordan was overtaken by Rodman, exerted force from behind, and knocked out of the court heavily.
On the other side, Drexler took care of Wilson's defense and scored with a jumper that he was not good at.
6 to 4
Rodman, who was entangled with Jordan on the defensive end, was regarded by his opponents as a burden to the Knicks on the offensive end.
Indeed, he can't shoot, can't attack with the ball, and put him on the court to attack four-on-five.
If it is an incompetent coach, Rodman will indeed encounter this kind of embarrassment.
But Louie has a lot of ways to integrate Rodman into the offensive end.
Rodman screened for Wilson on the weak side, received the ball on the strong side, screened for Stockton, and suddenly ran to the corner. He didn't threaten a three-pointer, so what did he do there?
As soon as his opponent had doubts, he saw him cut to the basket with a reverse run, and Stockton lobbed the pass.
Rodman made the alley-oop.
8 to 4
As a fan of the opposing team, you never get happy when Rodman scores. Because you're going to see a **** dancing back to the defense, his funny running posture, and his powerful punching action are more annoying and uncomfortable than Curry's head shaking and James' striding stride.
"Seeing MJ's defense, I am even more angry with the group of media who voted. How could they choose this guy as DPOY?"
When Louis said these words, the voice was very loud, not only the players on the field could hear it, but also the fans behind him.
How can the Portlanders watch him humiliate their ace in such a way, and immediately fight back with foul language off the court.
Suddenly, Wilson faced Jordan.
Jordan doesn't have the ball in his hands, he needs to move.
However, his running route has been figured out by the Knicks.
Jordan lifted up from the paint area, and when he was about to rush out of the top of the arc to get the ball, he directly hit Rodman's arms. Rodman blocked his way and made a conscious effort to annoy Jordan.
At this time, Jordan is also an impatient young man, how can he tolerate the opponent's role player provoking him? Immediately turned around and swung his elbow away from Rodman's hand. Rodman tried to choke his throat with both hands, but Jordan decisively threw a left uppercut with his left hand—Wilson immediately joined the conflict, and he pushed Jordan to the ground viciously.
Edwards' **** arrived late, and Ewing hugged him just as he was about to make a move on Wilson.
"Speak up if you have something to say." Ewing looks rude, but he is a rare good player in the Knicks team.
Seeing that his teammates had the upper hand in the fight, McHale decided to be a good person: "Don't fight, it's not good to fight, why should we fight?"
This scene made Bill Sheneri, the announcer of the Memorial Stadium, angry: "What a bunch of bandits! The Knicks are full of thugs! Dennis Rodman and Benjamin Wilson are Satan's right and left hands! LOL...But, I'm most disappointed that no one came forward to help except James, Clyde, what are you doing? TB (Porter), why are you not responding? Larry Nance. ..”
The Blazers have a real fighter off the court-Xavier McDaniel. But Adelman doesn't like to use him. Moreover, the Blazers compete fiercely for the same position. If Jordan is positioned as the second position, then the third position must be Drexler, so he must be a substitute.
This conflict was not intense, and it was only because Jordan was the one who took the initiative that there was such a big commotion.
Even if it is a fight, the Knicks have the upper hand. After all, the Knicks have played with the attitude of "fighting with a ball" since the Eastern Conference Finals.
Wilson's aggressiveness was what confuses Louis the most.
"How did that kid become like this?" Louis remembered that Wilson only played aggressively, not like now, who was always violent.
Tomjanovich said with a smile, "It starts with Larry's spit."
"What a country bumpkin, his saliva is poisonous, isn't it?"
What made the Blazers fans furious was that it was the Blazers who suffered the most, Jordan was the one who was beaten, and it was Jordan who was knocked down.
The Knicks...didn't call anyone a foul.
To understand the result of this ruling, one must understand the attitude of the NBA to fighting since the 1960s. If it weren't for Tomjanovich being punched out of his brains, the NBA would be a rougher league than the NHL in every way.
Regarding fights, the league has not clearly stipulated how to punish them, it all depends on the nature and negative impact of the fights.
And like this kind of people chatting, the latter fights back and detonates a group of fights, the referee's punishment is always the full responsibility of the person who punches first.
If Jordan doesn't make that punch, he may still give Rodman a foul in the case of the Blazers at home.
After that punch, the technical foul was gone.
Boos, boos full of hate, swept through the Memorial Stadium.
Louie defiantly asked Rodman to go to the free throw.
Rodman's free throw percentage is less than ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Let him make free throws, which is a clear statement: I am not bad.
As a result, Rodman missed all free throws, and the fans were so happy that the cheers sounded like an earthquake, while the Blazers players, everyone looked angry, and Jordan looked the most excited.
They know the Knicks are insulting them in this way, but what can they do?
The ball is still in the hands of the Knicks.
Wilson, who brought down Jordan in the conflict, has provoked him many times in the series.
At this time, he used the ball to run a beautiful Exchange Ricky (high dynamic attack), first at the top of the arc, then on the right wing, and then ran back to the top of the arc, received the ball, and shot.
"Shua!"
