The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 714 orange ghost

"Greatest King of New York ever!"

To put such a big hat on Wilson's head, it can be regarded as killing him.

The older generation of Knicks players have nothing to say, not because they are convinced, but because they really have nothing to say. . .

Because compared to honors, Wilson's current two championships + mvp achievements can already challenge any famous player in the history of the Knicks.

I just don't know how Ewing feels, because he should be the best candidate at this stage to say who is the greatest King of New York in history.

2 championships, 4 best teams, 4 best defensive teams, 1 dpoy, 1 mvp, 2 fmvp, the honor is much harder than Wilson.

Fortunately, this discussion did not spread widely, and the Knicks only regarded that sentence as Marv Albert's personal opinion.

Due to the cbs schedule, after the second game of the conference finals, the Knicks and Celtics got a four-day offseason.

During this period, this year's NHL Stanley Cup final came to an end.

The Edmonton Oilers beat the Boston Bruins 4-1 to claim their fifth Stanley Cup final in seven years.

After sending away Wayne Gretzky, the Oilers still have a strong competitiveness.

The failure of the Bruins seems to imply an ominous sign.

Maybe this is the year that professional sports in Boston are cursed?

May 26 is game day for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Before Louie left New York, he got up very early.

This is a habit he has only developed this year. If he is going to an away game, he should get up early and leave early.

This was done to save time for the farewell and also to avoid triggering the "Daddy's on a business trip" line of dialogue.

Lu Yi didn't expect that Lu Wuxia got up earlier than him.

Louis saw Lu Wuxia who got up early to practice in his own gymnasium.

Lu Wuxia is obsessed with basketball, is this a good thing?

If he has the talent to play professionally, that's of course a good thing, but what if he doesn't?

Lu Wuxia is not yet 6 years old this year. From the perspective of a basketball coach, Lu Yi can see some of his advantages, such as good basic skills, balanced left and right hands, excellent ball feel, and that touch, which is obviously inherited. own father.

He is not yet 6 years old. Of course it is a good thing to have so many advantages, but if he wants to play professionally in the future, it is not enough.

Because peers with the above advantages, from the perspective of the world, there are always 100,000, not to mention 1 million.

No matter how anxious Louis was about his son, it was useless. He couldn't see the future, so he could only pray that the boy's athletic talent would improve in the future.

Louis looked at it for a while, then quietly left.

Flying to Boston, the local fans have not yet recovered from the pain of the Bruins' loss.

Moreover, there are a lot of bad things in the Celtics team.

Ralph Sampson and Jimmy Rogers' feud has gone public.

After losing game2, Jimmy Rogers said; "We have Larry, Ralph, Isiah and many good players, but if only one person plays well, we will definitely not be able to beat a strong enemy like the Knicks."

Rogers is implicitly saying that Sampson's personal offense is too much, leaving his teammates no room to play.

Sampson did not let Rogers take the rhythm.

He accepted the interview in private and responded positively to the question: "Benjamin Wilson of the Knicks scored 48 points in the last game, and I scored 40 points and 17 rebounds. In the end, we only lost by 4 points. If I can If we get 5 points, we win, this is my shortcoming, but I don't think there is any problem with my performance, I will stick to the current style of play."

Keeping Isiah Thomas happy and team basketball are no longer the Celtics' internal focus.

Their focus now is how to resolve the conflict between Sampson and Rogers.

Obviously, Rodgers is unwilling to regress, and Sampson feels that he is not wrong. At the moment when the Celtics are 0 to 2 behind, is there anything worse than letting them take these things to meet the Knicks?

Back at home, even though the Celtics have internal problems, winning is still their common wish.

In the old Boston Garden, the Celtics knew they could raise the intensity of the game and drag the Knicks into a quagmire of hand-to-hand and confrontation.

In the first quarter, the Knicks' shooting percentage was not high, and the Celtics were able to counterattack vigorously. The most excited person was Sampson, who got the ball in the high post and ran desperately to the Knicks' basket.

As long as Sampson rushes up, even if all the players on the Knicks are on the field together, it will be difficult to defend, because his footwork is so good that he can end the offense with one left and right hand, and he can also use various European step layups/slam dunks The monsters are too difficult to guard against.

Fortunately, Louis kept a hand.

He knows that the Celtics will increase their defensive strength when they return to the home court. Therefore, the key to this game is not offense, but defense.

Whoever has better defensive resources will be able to persist until the end.

To deal with Sampson, Louie truces Doug West and Brad Rohaus, then replaces Ewing with Sean Kemp.

His instructions to Kemp were to assist in defending Sampson and double-team Sampson. Once he was sure that he could not stop Sampson from attacking, he would foul decisively.

Not just to Kemp, but Louie's instructions to everyone else.

He wanted his players to foul Sampson no matter the cost.

The consequence of this is that the first half is not over yet, especially just five minutes into the second quarter, when the Celtics have already entered the bonus moment. The Walters are all free throws.

In this quarter of the game, the Celtics scored 16 free throws, and Sampson made 12 by himself and scored 10 free throws.

Likewise, Louie's intimidation of the on-duty referees -- Dick Bavetta, Joe Crawford, Bernie Fryer -- didn't give the Celtics much of a kick. Bavita was really afraid of Louie, so if he didn't make trouble, he wouldn't make trouble. The other two referees naturally followed the referee's rhythm, so it was easy for the Knicks to get free throws.

Louis let Kemp leave the field with six fouls in 12 minutes, and then let Sely, Rodman, McHale and others foul at will. They have enough manpower.

The Celtics can't consume like the Knicks.

At the end of the half, Bird made a second foul, Sampson a third foul, Lambiel a fourth foul, Jim Peterson a third foul...

In the second half, Louie started Hornacek, Miller, Wilson, Rodman and Sam Bowie.

Letting Bowie start is to strengthen the instigation ability of the inside line. The Knicks will use the system to make a large number of mid-range and long-range shots.

Reggie Miller changed the tempo of his shot after receiving Louie's authorization.

No, perhaps it should be said that he liberated his shooting rhythm.

After the start of the third quarter, Miller scored two three-pointers in a row. Moreover, these two three-pointers were made during the conversion process and when the Celtics defense had not yet formed.

Miller is a convulsive shooter, and he can't stop the touch when he feels it.

Louie may be a big pig, he thinks Miller is an enhanced version of Dale Ellis.

With Miller's three-pointer driving the rhythm, Wilson and Hornacek also actively looked for opportunities to make three-pointers. Of the six three-pointers made by the Knicks in this quarter, at least four three-pointers were created by the players' subjective initiative. Opportunity to invest in.

The Knicks frightened the opponent's defense from the outside and comfortably opened up space for their teammates. The Celtics had too many fouls, and they did not dare to hit hard against Rodman and Bowie's unscrupulous violations of the inside.

Louie's layout and consumption in the first half reaped the fruits in the third quarter.

The Celtics defense was in disarray. Then there were scenes of unbelievable scenes: Sam Bowie faced Sampson and dared to dribble directly to the inside for a dunk, and Rodman deliberately asked Sampson to hold the ball while protecting the basket. Come in for physical contact.

Sampson was afraid of fouling, so he focused on the defensive end.

There was a poignant scene in the Garden late in the third quarter when Wilson drew Sampson's fourth foul.

Bowie actually sent Sampson flying from outside the three-point line, then passed by, and went straight to the inside for a one-handed dunk; and Sampson and Lambiel were eager to grab the shield, and they snatched together. Didn't get the rebound, cheap Rodman in vain, and gave him two points.

If Bird hadn't found the touch on the perimeter~www.mtlnovel.com~The Celtics would have been crushed in the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Louis did not intend to leave any illusions for the Bostonians.

Jimmy Rodgers replaced Isiah Thomas, who had played three straight quarters, to rest.

Louie immediately switched to the murder press team.

Somehow, Celtic didn't put up much of a fight in the face of the murderous press, and Sampson seemed tired and needed a break.

But Rodgers didn't let him rest, which seemed to be on purpose.

Rodgers wants Sampson to know that he can command the latter's playing time, and Sampson's stamina bar is empty after consecutive games, and with the Knicks' murderous pressure, the Celtics need Thomas more than ever .

Before Thomas went off the court, the two sides were only 12 points apart.

In just the past 3 minutes, the 12-point lag turned into 20 points.

"New Yorkers completely dispelled the green ghost overhead."

"The problem now is that Bostonians are finding out in their gardens that they're haunted by the orange ghost."
