The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 611 With such intensity, nothing can be done

,!

On November 5, the Knicks played at their home court for the first time in the new season.

Interestingly, their opponent is the Boston Celtics.

What's more interesting is that tonight is a special day for the Knicks to hold the championship flag-raising ceremony at home and the president's ring distribution ceremony.

For the Celtics, except for Larry Bird, who was confirmed to be reimbursed for the season, the rest of the players are still there.

Of their nine-man rotation, only Danny Ainge left the team.

And Angie joined the Knicks, the Celtics' sworn enemy.

CBS naturally broadcast the game live across the United States.

Even if Bird can't play against the Knicks against the Celtics, there is still a lot to watch.

"This is the first meeting between the two sides after that miserable Eastern Conference Finals. Rick, what do you think of this game?"

cbs commentator bob beer asks his partner rick barry.

Barry said with a self-righteous attitude: "The Celtics are in a bad situation without Larry, because we know that they are a person who relies on Larry to drive the team. The Knicks are not. It seems that they are a special team who know how to win, especially their leader - littlelu."

This is Madison Square Garden. After the Knicks won the championship last season, anyone who dared to call Louie "littlelu" would be booed by fans.

"little your mother!" a black fan near Barry yelled, "littlelu is your name, you **** white man?"

I don't know why, but Louis likes the nickname "littlelu" very much, but New Yorkers are naturally allergic to this nickname.

Later, someone studied it seriously and came to a conclusion.

The nickname was brought over from Boston by Louis.

What does Littlelu in Boston have to do with New York? As if he was still in Boston.

The Knicks general took over the ring from David Stern in front of the Celtics.

Without the Knicks, this would have belonged to them.

The Celtics have no dead ends in their five consecutive championships. It is a recognized fact that both the Knicks and the Celtics can easily defeat the Blazers in the finals.

Seeing the New Yorkers showing off their rings, the Green Army was aggrieved.

Both sides start:

Knicks: Stockton, Miller, Wilson, McHale, Ewing.

Celtics: Thomas, Harper, Reggie Lewis, Lambiel, Sampson.

Compared with last season, the only change is that Lewis has become the team's starting third position.

When Bird comes back, Lewis will still be on the bench.

At this stage, Lewis' presence is very important to the Celtics.

However, Louie didn't think the Celtics, which had the league's No. 1 center and the league's top three point guards, were terrible, because their three outsiders were all players who lacked long-range threats.

Therefore, the game plan formulated by the Knicks coaching staff is very simple and crude.

Let go of the three-pointers of Thomas, Harper, and Lewis, and guard against Sampson.

If Thomas wants to break through, he will give intensity and confrontation according to the standards of the playoffs.

For the rest, just adapt to the circumstances.

Ewing wins the jump ball off Sampson.

Sampson didn't seem to be focused enough, otherwise, with his height and jumping ability, it would not be easy for Ewing to win the jump ball.

The ball belonged to the Knicks, Stockton dribbled forward, just landed, and the run had already begun.

The Celtics put Thomas on Stockton, Lewis on Miller, Harper on Wilson, Sampson on McHale, and Lambiel on Ewing.

In addition to tactics, the art of coaching, if you want to dig deeper, is just the art of court alignment.

How to avoid your weaknesses from being caught by the opponent, and how to make your strengths work, all require the coaching staff to work **** the matchup.

The Celtics' impression of the Knicks stayed in last season.

Harper's defense had little effect on Wilson, and the changes between the two sides during the offseason were huge.

The growing muscles on Wilson's body have opened up the level between him and Harper.

He roughly threw Harper away, received a pass from Stockton at a forty-five-degree angle to the left, and hit a jumper.

2 to 0

Louis' original expectation was that he would become a Durant without the ball and McGrady with the ball.

Looking at it now, Wilson can't be as deadly as Durant in the short term.

Compared with Durant's wide open and close high position wandering, Wilson is more accustomed to Jordan Kobe's high position running at a 45-degree angle on both sides to catch the ball.

That's why he and Dale Ellis didn't get along. The two run in opposite philosophies.

Louis was standing on the sidelines. After the players retreated, he said casually: "Give our opponent a greeting."

Less than five seconds after he finished speaking, Thomas, who dribbled across the half court, was double-teamed by Stockton and Wilson on the outside.

There were no signs of this double-team.

As Bob Bill said: "Like a critter caught in a tunnel trap, Isiah was caught in a meatloaf!"

Ewing found that Sampson was going to meet him, so he followed.

Thomas' view was blocked. He saw Sampson coming to get the ball, but he didn't see Ewing behind him, and the pass was much more casual.

Sampson's hand just touched the ball, and behind him, Ewing brought the racket forward.

The loss of control of the ball instantly aroused the cheers of the audience.

Ewing caught up with the ball, msg was like a ceremony scene, everyone was enthusiastic, and Jamaica King Kong jumped outside the paint and completed a gliding split that was extremely shocking for a seven-foot center.

"Patrick Ewing completely saw through the Celtics' cooperation! This steal, this dunk, omg!" Bill said in surprise, "The Knicks are stronger than last season!"

Barry proudly said: "This is what I mentioned before. The Knicks know how to win. They won once. Everyone in the team is very young. This team has a great future!"

K.C. Jones' successor, Jimmy Rodgers, served as his assistant coach when Louie was still the head coach of the Celtics.

At that time, he also underestimated Louis because of his age. Now, he has regarded Louis as the most terrifying figure in the league.

The double-teaming of Isiah Thomas just now must have been premeditated.

"Pay attention to keep in touch, once the ball holder is double-teamed, others must take the initiative to respond!"

Rogers' on-the-spot reminders are all the most basic.

When Thomas dribbled the ball over again, Louis shouted from behind: "Isaiah, the guys under me don't understand the rules, you have to bear it!"

The Knicks' defense has maintained consistent aggressiveness.

The Celtics didn't adapt.

They have also played more intense games, but they did not expect the Knicks to play like this from the first time they met in the regular season.

The Celtics didn't know that the Knicks' intra-team confrontation was much more intense than this, and everyone came here like this.

Under Louis' request, the Knicks have indeed become a team that pays attention to confrontation all the time, longs for hand-to-hand combat, and desperately finds collisions with the opponent in order to kill the opponent's will.

Benjamin Wilson, again the one who went too far.

He is like a demon forcing Harper who received the ball to retreat. His defense is so oppressive, like a piranha with its mouth open. The overwhelming aura does not give Harper a chance to breathe. .

Harper only hesitated for a moment before the ball was knocked off by Wilson and bounced out of bounds.

Louis has seen and never seen a player like Wilson.

His aggression is not as murderous as Jordan's to eat his opponent. And close to Garnett, it seems that he is going to spontaneously ignite, pulling his opponent to die together, so he often cannot control his energy and let it leak out. But Garnett's biggest problem is that he cares a little too much. He cares about too many things, so he doesn't have the kind of Duncan and Nowitzki, who press the alarm at the critical moment and enter the "give me the ball and the others get out of the way" mode.

And Wilson is different. He has the fireworks of Garnett, the energy that infects others, but he doesn't care too much about things like Garnett.

All he wants is to destroy his opponent.

This is Garnett with a killing mentality.

Louis saw the fear in Harper's eyes. He didn't expect Wilson to make such great progress in one summer.

Last season, Wilson was an excellent defender.

This season, he went one step further.

The improvement of the offensive end still needs to be tested in more games.

On the defensive end, he has become the Knicks' number one perimeter gate.

Compared with before, the Knicks have many differences in terms of offense, except that they still focus on the system.

One difference is that Ewing was given more chances to catch the ball.

Louis designed a lot of tactics for him to take the ball in the low post.

Because the main opponent after the Knicks, if nothing else, is Jordan's Blazers.

Even with Rick Schmitz, their interior remains a weak spot.

Developing Ewing's offense can enhance the Knicks' inside advantage.

Miller and Wilson pulled apart, and Stockton passed the ball.

The Celtics trusted Lambiel's single defense~www.mtlnovel.com~ so no one was double-teaming. In the right corner, Wilson pretended to run up the line, but suddenly turned back and ran to cut the baseline, leaving Harper behind.

Ewing tossed the ball like a hydrangea, and Wilson then jumped up and played an elegant rainbow circle draw bar under the basket and hit the board.

6 to 0

"I have thought about many openings, but this one is the only one that is unexpected." Barry said something that made Celtic supporters dissatisfied, "Even if Larry Bird is missing, Boston shouldn't be so embarrassed. , what happened to them?"

It may be the reason why Barry was not in the game. He didn't see that the intensity of the Knicks made the Celtics unable to do what they wanted.

When the outside line is emptied, it becomes difficult to play inside.

Lambiel ran out to shoot a three-pointer.

But since Louie left, no one asked him to strengthen the practice of three-pointers. He himself is a slacker who neglects training, and his three-pointer rate is doomed to gradually decline.

Shooting three-pointers at this time is like a forced choice when there is nothing to do.

"boom!"
