The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 712 I\'m kidding with you

Chapter 712 I'm joking with you

Bird was in good shape today, and Ralph Sampson was supposed to be playing at an average level, but the Celtics fans counted, not counting the coach's sudden convulsion.

After Rodgers clearly affected Sampson's mentality, and subsequently reacted negatively to the Celtics, assistant coach Chris Ford said: "Jimmy, you shouldn't treat Ralph too much...too much. Too harsh."

Rogers said with a good feeling: "Chris, wasn't that what LittleLu was like back then in Boston?"

"This..." Ford wanted to laugh but didn't dare. "It's really not."

"No? So how did he do it?"

Ford said helplessly: "Just like K.C, just like you usually..."

"However, you have seen how he treated Patrick Ewing." Louie undoubtedly set a bad example for Rodgers, and he succeeded in convincing Rodgers that, "Perhaps it is precisely because the inside players are marginalized against the times. Laws, so LittleLu needs to speak ill of them, he wants to use this way to keep them vigilant, I think it's a good way, Ralph is too stable, he needs stimulation."

Ford stopped persuading because he had persuaded.

Rodgers sees only what he wants to see, and if he goes his own way, it might be devastating for the series, but good for Ford. .

He has served as the assistant coach of the Celtics since he retired, and took over successfully after K.C was laid off. He wanted to make a big splash, but he did not expect that the Celtics had many internal problems.

Now is an eventful time, and the people above are eager to use the peak tail of this group of people to achieve results. If Rogers messes up and makes a bad move that makes Sampson's mentality explode, maybe he will be dismissed at the end of the season. , he will naturally inherit the position of head coach.

Rodgers continued to output Sampson.

It can be seen that Sampson is not like Ewing, the more stimulated, the better his performance.

He got frustrated and Rodgers misjudged the situation and the players.

Sampson is not the passive personality of Ewing who needs to be driven forward with a whip. Just like he was famous all over the world before he entered the professional league, and dreamed of changing the game of basketball, he always had control over him. initiative.

He knew what he wanted and what to do.

Louie saw him clearly, so when he was in the Celtics, he was very gentle with him, but Ewing was different.

Rogers believed that Sampson and Ewing were the same, and they needed to be stimulated by insulting language to perform better, but the mentality of Sampson, who was invincible all over the world, collapsed.

Sampson didn't understand, he made such a big sacrifice and didn't behave badly, how could Rogers have such a strong dissatisfaction with him?

Because of the split mentality, Sampson was almost invisible for the next quarter and a half.

The bench was unreliable, Bird was targeted by the Knicks' tactics and could not lead his teammates with his personal performance, Sampson was invisible, and the head coach played snake.

Celtic fans can almost sing: "My Kai has collapsed."

True, the Celtics collapsed, but not completely.

Isiah Thomas knew he was supposed to stand up and hold the game, so during that time, the Celtics' offense was on his own.

Thomas made three mid-range shots against Stockton's defense. It was the Smile Assassin's consecutive goals on the offensive end that helped the Celtics resist the Knicks' offensive and prevent the game from entering garbage time too early. , which gave the Celtics a chance to hit the final minutes of the fourth quarter.

Early in the fourth quarter, Jimmy Rodgers sent two substitutes.

He hoped that Thomas and Byrd would breathe a sigh of relief.

However, when Thomas was not there, Louis waved his hand and changed into a murder pressing lineup. In three minutes, an 8-1 offensive pulled the lead to 24 points, scaring Rodgers to let Thomas rest.

After Thomas came back, his touch declined, and then Bird came back and made two three-pointers in a row to reduce the difference to less than 20 points.

After that, the two sides have been deadlocked.

The big score is behind, the Celtics need Sampson's strong performance, only when the inside has the offensive and defensive dominance, they have the opportunity to turn over in the hands of the Knicks.

But Sampson's mentality has collapsed.

There is no home field advantage, no lineup advantage, and the Knicks are not as good as the Knicks.

The Celtics were strong until 3 minutes before the end, when Wilson faced Reggie Lewis's dry-pulling three-pointer to pull the lead to 22 points.

Bird also used the color movement to catch the ball and hit the iron with a three-pointer. Ewing grabbed the rebound and passed Rodman to counterattack and score on the fast break.

Lost Sampson wants to serve fast.

He looked restless, even though the idea was good, the work in his hands was not meticulous enough, and he actually sent the ball into Rodman's hands.

Rodman stood in place and waited for his teammates to come, Wilson followed to the frontcourt, caught the ball, and shot a three-pointer again.

In this way, the difference was pulled to 27 points, and the suspense was completely gone.

Jimmy Rodgers symbolically called a timeout, replaced all the main players, and announced that the game had officially entered garbage time.

"I really didn't expect those three guys to start their journey in the 90s with this kind of coach after the brilliant 80s." Louie is a person who doesn't believe in arrogance.

However, if there is any team in the NBA that can represent the gas, it must be the Celtics.

Because of Louis, they escaped the "death of prejudice", but also because of Louis, the team that had the potential to monopolize the championship until the end of the 1980s lost the championship two years early. Now, their lineup is aging, the substitute is weak, and the main The coach is sick... The past 40 years have represented the beginnings and transitions of the Celtics' strength, and in the 90s, it was as if the strength was exhausted.

Louie looked at Lewis. He used to think this person's name was familiar, but he finally remembered it recently.

He knew the man would soon pass out on the training ground with a heart problem and die suddenly.

He also looked at Jimmy Rodgers, and he hoped Rodgers' performance today would not overshadow Sampson.

The West is too wild. If the Celtics also fall and the Knicks have no opponents in the East, it is easy to be complacent. If you play the finals with that mentality, it will be a little dangerous.

Because complacency breeds complex problems.

There are probably a lot of people who want to see the Celtics unlucky, but that doesn't include Louie.

He would gloat over Rodgers' stupidity. That's a mentality of watching the fun and not taking it too seriously, but if this matter will further affect the state of the Celtics and the future of the team, he will be another mentality. .

The Knicks need to find an opponent in the East.

Very necessary.

"Coach Rogers, why is your attitude towards Ralph so bad?"

When shaking hands after the game, Louie couldn't help asking.

"Because he lacks passion, I hope to inspire Ralph the same way you inspired Patrick." Rogers said regretfully, "He doesn't seem to be used to this position, Coach Lu, how did you get Patrick to bow down to you?"

"What's so hard about this? As long as you are fierce enough, pay attention to accumulating more swear words, and use them in combination when you are angry, and speak hard when they make mistakes, I guarantee Ralph will be like a sheep Just as gentle."

While Louie doesn't want the Celtics to kill themselves, he doesn't want a coach like that to stay with the Celtics.

Therefore, long pain is worse than short pain. He is indirectly helping the Celtics to purify themselves.

By the time Rodgers hit Sampson, the Celtics' season was probably over, and while they lost hope of winning the 1989-90 season with the Knicks, they had a bright future ahead.

Getting Rodgers out was a crucial first step if they wanted to remain competitive in the '90s.

Louis could not have imagined that he had left Boston for a few years, and he could still make such a contribution to them. Auerbach should send him a red envelope.

"Coach Lu, did you ever think that you would win so easily?"

It was still Leslie Visser who interviewed Louie live.

Louie said modestly: "No, I didn't think about it, because the Celtics are our number one opponent, and logically they shouldn't be like this."

"Oh, do you think it's not the Knicks who played well, but the Celtics who played poorly?"

"It's too rude to say that, I didn't mean that, Leslie, if you keep saying this, I'll be scolded for going to Boston in a while."

Louie brightened the mood with a joke.

In the end, he couldn't help but complain: "But, we really didn't expect this game to go so smoothly. This is only the first game, we won't relax because of a big win, because we can't count on the Celtics It's like that every night. Treat this game as a lucky gift and prepare for the next one more seriously."

The most interesting is the press conference.

On the Knicks side, Ewing said; "We did well because we had a good coach, and you probably don't know Louie, and I can tell you about it—he's asking us, 'Don't give the opponent a chance' "Here's his exact words, if the Celtics took a breather in front of us, he'd lash out and insult us all with the most vulgar words."

Everyone's eyes widened, they didn't expect Louis to be so cruel.

Ewing saw that this group of people didn't know how to make fun, and suddenly said, "I'm joking with you guys!"

"Hee hee hee." Wilson smirked three times.

Luckily, in front of the reporter ~www.mtlnovel.com~ in private, Louie's foot had already landed on Ewing's butt.

The Knicks press conference was funny, and while Ewing's bad jokes were never funny, it's turned into a repertoire.

Although Ewing's jokes were not funny and mostly awkward, if he didn't say it, the reporters were not used to it.

As soon as he said it, everyone would pretend that his joke was funny, and laugh out loud after he reminded "I'm joking". What everyone liked was the scene where everyone forced themselves to laugh when it was obviously not funny. It was too dark and humorous. .

In contrast to the Celtics, Ralph Sampson publicly expressed his dissatisfaction.

"Everyone has a different style, I don't like tonight's game, I don't like my performance, I don't like the performance of other people, we shouldn't be playing like this, and we shouldn't be causing unnecessary unnecessary damage to each other. pressure."

"Ralph, what do you mean?"

Sampson is also a veteran. Knowing that the media wants to make trouble, he is not caught up: "If you want to know more, go back and watch the game."
