The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 843 calmly
Chris Jackson, Alex Stevens, Danny Ainge.
These are the three new players that Louis has replaced. CJ is more aggressive than Stockton. Stevens and Ainge can both hold the ball and are regulars in the murder pressing lineup. The crowd was pressed and crushed.
This is Louis' consideration, but it still needs to be tested in practice.
The Dick Bavitas made the scale of the game like this today, and Louie is not sure they can hold it.
Now it's a pity that Reggie Williams isn't there. If he is, he will replace Ainge, so he can feel more at ease.
The timeout ended, the Knicks had the ball, and the Blazers' defensive formation was exactly the same as the Knicks' murderous press.
There was an insider standing in the backcourt, and four people in the frontcourt echoed each other.
"Coach Riley's homework is really worthless." Zhao Yuanzheng said sarcastically, "Even if Coach Lu goes to other teams to teach murder and pressing, it's probably nothing more than that."
Louis was also helpless.
Pat Riley, as a famous coach in history, actually put his figure so low, even if he imitated the Knicks, he would learn what he had, and if he didn't learn everything, he would learn it temporarily in actual combat.
What Louis is more worried about now is that this Blazer team is so powerful after learning it temporarily. How strong will it be if it is properly integrated for another season?
However, the temporary has a temporary problem after all.
Murder pressing requires not only ferocity and athleticism, but also mutual understanding between players and a tacit understanding of cooperation, so that traps can be set to lure opponents in during the tense pressing.
It is not easy for the Blazers to take two days to form the murder pressing training, and other details cannot be perfected in a short time.
That's why, after CJ came on the court, not only did he not show fear, but he dared to dribble the Blazers' full-court pressing.
The first person to be breached was Bruce Edwards.
He underestimated CJ, he didn't take it seriously, and he only focused on physical confrontation. He never thought that after exercising in New York for a season, his core strength had greatly improved, and he was not afraid of his physical contact.
Edwards' defense was broken, and Jordan posted it in an instant.
However, this made a flaw in the pressing mid lane defense.
CJ took the opportunity to pass the ball.
Stevens received the ball, and the Knicks dribbled the ball past halftime for the first time since the start. Ewing suppressed Clifford Robinson's body in the frontcourt and raised his hand for the ball.
Unexpectedly, Stevens shot outside the three-point line.
It was a chase three.
"Damn it, Alex!" Ewing yelled, turning to check in.
"Shh!"
3 to 8
Even if he made the shot, Ewing would complain: "You should have passed the ball to me!"
"Sorry Patrick, I just had a reason to have to pitch." Stevens.
"What **** reason?"
"You're stuck at the rim and you can grab an offensive rebound even if I miss a shot."
"What the **** is that, you take me for Moses Malone? You know I hate that bastard!"
After watching this ball, Louis let out a sigh of relief.
He was also frightened by the Blazers who started the game. After all, he was forced to make three consecutive mistakes, and everyone was shocked.
As it turns out, nothing is done in a day. The Knicks' murder pressing took years to form the fighting force to destroy the Celtics. It took the Blazers two days and they were just paper tigers.
I just didn't expect that Stockton and Miller didn't take the pressure.
Louie watched Stockton and Miller's reactions while watching the game.
It was obvious that they were dissatisfied with their performance.
The Blazers' full-court press disrupted their rhythm, a challenge that past opponents never posed.
Or many times, they get used to it.
If you can't get used to it, it means that you don't have enough time in the gym.
The Knicks' lineup is a lot more convenient when breaking the press, but when it comes to defense, there are just as many problems.
CJ is a mediocre defender. Ainge's skills and awareness are still there, but his old arms and legs are not strong. Only Stevens can bring high-quality defense.
Fortunately, Louie retained Ewing and Rodman at the same time. These two plus Stevens can prevent the Knicks' backline from being pinched by the Blazers as a balloon by assisting defense.
Ewing's defense reminded the Portlanders who dominated the paint.
Jordan tried to get to the basket to challenge Ewing, but he got caught and ate a sturdy volleyball cap.
Rodman protected the defensive rebound, CJ advanced, and made an emergency stop in the frontcourt. Finding that the Blazers' defense was not keeping up, he made a decisive emergency stop and shot to chase a three-pointer.
Hit again!
"Alex Stevens and Chris Jackson are both players who shine under LittleLu, and they prove that LittleLu is not a head coach who only depends on the stars to change the game."
"Yes, only playing good cards does not show the coaching quality of the coaches. It is the real skill to be able to play bad cards with good results."
Costas and the tragic sing along.
Doug Collins couldn't help but think that when he was teaching in Chicago, he was fired because of a bad hand.
Ewing said he had to withstand the high pressure during this time, and he did.
But it can't be said that he carried it alone, just like Wilson didn't carry the pressing defensive task of murder alone in the last game.
CJ and Stevens were the ones who had to bear the pressure with Ewing.
And working alongside Wilson is the entire murder press team.
At such a time, whether the media tells the truth or writes in the Spring and Autumn Period depends entirely on the external image of the party concerned.
If it was Wilson, the media would naturally slap him, as if it were all his own fault. If it is Ewing, then it will be businesslike. Whoever scores and who defends must be written clearly and clearly. If it has nothing to do with Ewing, it has absolutely nothing to do, and if it is related to Ewing, it will not magnify his effect.
CJ's activity is destined to take away Ewing's attention.
Louie saw CJ playing like Lillard. He dribbled the ball on the perimeter and made three-pointers, and he didn't look at the position.
Ewing was very dissatisfied with this. A few times, when he was about to get to the position, CJ would shoot without looking at him.
Even so, Ewing can only hide his dissatisfaction in his heart, because CJ's hand feels extremely hot, whether it's a pick-and-roll direct shot, or a quick-stop mid-range shot after changing in front of the body, or running empty-handed. A catch-and-shoot shot that takes a chance, or an open catch-and-shoot that passes the ball to Ewing to attract a double team, is a complete mess.
In the 6 minutes CJ played in the first quarter, he made 7 of 8 shots and scored 16 points.
He was obviously a backup, but he played like a core, and the Blazers' full-court pressing strategy was hit hard.
In the first eight minutes of the game, apart from playing the Knicks' starting 8-0, there was no further victory after Louis's change, and the advantage was recovered by the convulsive CJ.
When the Blazers requested a timeout, the score between the two sides was 22 to 21, and the Knicks actually overtook one point.
"I think why CJ was given to New York will surely become the three unsolved mysteries in the history of the Boston Celtics." The tragic schadenfreude said.
Costas laughed: "Erwin, why don't you take advantage of the pause to tell us what the other two unsolved mysteries are?"
"I'm very happy!" Tragedy Ba Duo badly said bad things about the Celtics on the national live broadcast. "The other big unsolved mystery is of course Billy Owens' trade and LittleLu's departure. The former ended their future, The latter... This one is hard to say, we all know what LittleLu did in New York, he could do the same in Boston with enough authority. If he stayed in Boston, I can't believe what would happen in the current NBA What, there's a good chance they're still winning the championship to this day, and that's going to be the scariest outcome for the rest of the league."
"Yes."
Doug Collins agrees with the tragedian's speculation.
"Looking at what LittleLu did in New York, I'm sure every team's front office would have said heartily, 'Thank goodness!' for him choosing to leave Boston in the summer of 1984."
On the Knicks bench, Louie praised everyone's play.
At the same time, he replaced Ewing, replaced him by Kemp, also replaced Ainge, and replaced him by Wilson.
Louie did not replace the eager Miller and Stockton.
"Since CJ is in such good shape, we should continue to play around him."
Jackson looked excited.
Seeing the trembling of the corners of his eyes, Louis knew that his emotions were up and down, and said quickly, "Don't be too happy, if you get sick on the field, I'll replace you."
"No, no, no, I won't." Jackson shook his head vigorously, but couldn't help but wave his left hand and hit Rodman in the cheek.
"Are you **** okay?"
Rodman asked aggrievedly, covering his face.
Jackson bit his lip and replied: "It's okay~www.mtlnovel.com~ Seeing this, Louis went to the technical desk to call for another timeout after the Blazers' timeout ended.
It is rare that after the other side's timeout is over, the other side calls a timeout.
No one knew what Louie was thinking.
After calling the timeout, he returned to his team and gave Stevens a look.
Stevens decisively picked up the paper cup and poured ice water directly on CJ's head.
"FUCK!"
"FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!!" Jackson jumped and reacted violently, and he couldn't hide the murderous desire in his eyes. "What the **** are you doing?"
"You look much better," Stevens said.
"I was fine until you splashed me with cold water!"
Rodman really wanted to show CJ the handprint on his face, "Really? I don't believe it."
"Okay, keep your mouths shut!" Louis said like a Zen master. "Before the pause is over, close your eyes and calm down."
Ewing rolled his eyes.
Everyone on the Knicks knows that there is only one person who needs to calm down.
