The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 861 The whole MSG is crazy about him
,!
Chris Jackson has the Blazers on their nerves.
The pain of Game 5 hasn't gone away.
It was an accident, if it wasn't for CJ's Heavenly Soldier, there would be no telling who would win.
Louie, who had already decided to shorten the rotation, also let CJ play, the intention needless to say.
Porter was injured and was replaced by Blue Edwards.
But Edwards is facing Wilson, and Jordan is defending CJ.
The Blazers' defense against cj has only one purpose.
Don't give him any comfortable shots other than pull-up jumpers against defenses.
This defensive strangulation around cj started after Porter left the field.
Louis saw that no matter how many screens CJ called, the Blazers' defenders followed him. To limit him, the Blazers exploited the wing's athleticism to the max.
This is a defense change at the level of the small ball era. Only a small ball lineup can have such a fast defense speed.
At the same time, Jordan and Barkley each made efforts for the team.
Barkley mainly attacked with the ball, while Jordan supplemented with mid-range jumpers. This was the secret of their last game.
Only when both inside and outside lines bloom, can it be said that the Knicks' defense has been blown.
In the second quarter, the Blazers' "Fat Boy" and "Mickey" played unparalleled performances as they did in the previous six games.
Barkley is one against three, even if there is a flank attack, he can still force his way in.
That kind of ball didn't make sense at all. Louis knew Ewing was trying his best when he saw Ewing's defensive position. It was really Barkley who was too domineering when he attacked.
Barkley will not avoid the opponent's defender at all. No matter how many people are in front of him, he just takes the ball and forces it.
If you don't score, you grab rebounds, as if you don't know that your height is not conducive to rebounding.
Ironically, Barkley always grabs the offensive rebound.
Barkley's rebound prediction is generally not as good as Rodman's, but he knows his offense well, he knows which goals can be scored and which goals cannot be scored. So every time he takes a shot and doesn't feel like he's going to go in, he's going to get ready for the offensive rebound.
This is a technical feature, but what really makes his offensive logic of relying on force to hit the rebound without being able to grab the rebound and hit again is reasonable. It is his body that is crowded with several people and can forcefully jump up and grab the rebound. explosive force.
Isn't this O'Neal who is 20 centimeters shorter?
When the Blazers chased the score to 26-30, Louie called a timeout and asked Ewing to rest. Even if he insisted on playing, his physical strength could not keep up.
Louie called out veteran McHale at the end of the bench.
"Kevin, I need your offense!" Louis said, "Also, we also need your experience to set up defensive traps!"
McHale is no longer the top low-post offensive player in history due to aging, injuries and long-term vegetarian reasons, but his comprehensive offensive and defensive footwork are still reliable when he has physical strength.
After a timeout, the Knicks only scored 6 points in the past half of the game. The Blazers relied on double cs inside and outside, and all kinds of illogical overbearing attacks, chasing the score to 4 points.
After this period, Riley replaced Barkley to rest, and he was replaced by Anthony Mason. That is to say, the Blazers will temporarily put the burden of offense on Jordan alone.
Jordan's offense is absolutely credible, but, as an outside ball-holding core, his current technical characteristics are not as difficult for Louis as Barkley as long as he has a touch.
"benj!"
Louie gestured to Wilson.
The meaning represented by his gesture is that the "law", "trap", and "pocket array" are launched against Jordan together.
This is Michael Jordan's honor, better than the tragic division, Sampson, Bird and even his teammate Barkley, are not so valued by Louis.
How can Louis not pay attention to Jordan?
This guy scored an average of 40 points per game against five of their best defensive team members in the finals. If he doesn't face him squarely, isn't he asking for trouble?
Whether as a contemporary person or a traveler from the future, Louis will always limit Jordan to the maximum with an attitude of awe.
Use whatever means you have, and there is one standard for everything: extreme.
Based on what Louis knew about Jordan in his previous life, the tragedies of Malone, Miller, Barkley, Drexler and others have all taught Louis a truth: if you don’t let Danzi know what is extreme, Danzi will punish you. extreme live.
Jordan stands outside, and Wilson defends alone.
But Wilson didn't take a close defense against him, but let him go more than half a meter, intending to let him take a three-pointer.
This is after the Knicks coaching staff reviewed the past six games and found that Jordan's outside touch is not stable, often fluctuating, and it is almost impossible to be accurate throughout the game.
Like Game 6, his three-pointers were like a roller coaster ride in the first half and the second half.
Today, he didn't even attempt a three-pointer.
Riley's football program had a profound impact on Jordan, the biggest one being the loss of the 3-point shot that made him practice hard for several seasons.
While the hand feeling is gone, Jordan has no time to regain his muscle memory due to the heavy season game tasks.
In the game against the Knicks, his three-pointers were like touching gold. If there is any, there is nothing. Even he can't control it.
Jordan wasn't afraid to take a three-point shot, but the position Wilson gave him wasn't big enough.
This space is only enough to shoot a three-pointer, but with Wilson's physical condition, he can react in time to affect his shot.
After weighing, Jordan chose to make a strong breakthrough.
Opening more than half a meter of space gave Wilson room to follow up slowly. He stuck to Jordan and forced him to go to the right wing.
Pat Riley's assistant, Dick Harter, took a serious look at the Knicks' defense.
When Jordan stepped into the Knicks' trap, the power of the "law" broke the flying man's wings on the spot. He was double-teamed by the toughest, as brave as him, and he couldn't keep the ball well.
Fumbles, turnovers, the Knicks' rotation.
"It's a chain, Pat," Hart said.
Riley looked at him, "What do you mean?"
"The space Benjamin gave Michael was not enough to complete a stable shot. His intention was to let Michael break through from the right. Dennis Rodman's help defense occupied Michael's breakthrough line, and Sean Kemp's The pinch was like an alarm clock going off on time, and it was right next to Michael in a split second...I've been around pro basketball for over forty years, and I've never seen a defense like this."
Dick Hart's words sent a chill down Riley's spine.
They originally imitated the Knicks to build a team, and learned while watching. They even didn't forget to learn from the Knicks in the finals. In the end, they still didn't learn thoroughly.
This defense shocked Hart but fascinated Riley.
The Blazers' defense is still in the most primitive aggressive single defense and help defense oppression plus brutal hand-to-hand combat. Not only the Blazers, but all teams that want to imitate the Knicks do this.
Even the Knicks did it in 1988.
However, only a few years later, the Knicks have been upgraded from the original reckless to "smart reckless". The Knicks under Louis is the first team in the history of professional basketball to abandon the team at the initial stage of the matchup. Bait, let the prey bite the hook, then force him to a certain position through defense, and then "pull the lead" to make the trap appear.
In record-breaking ratings, tens of millions of people witnessed the transformation of professional basketball's defense.
Countless basketball coaches who watched this game will seriously think about defense.
This is the most iconic defense of the Knicks in the Finals. In the following decades, the defensive concept developed by Louis will influence generations of coaches.
At that time, Jordan, after making a mistake, realized that he could no longer follow the Knicks' defense.
He needs to know how to brake.
Once again outside the three-point line, this time, Wilson put him one meter away: "You won't dare to shoot again, will you?"
Wilson's provocation has undoubtedly touched Jordan's back scales, and the flying man, whose anger soared, was furious.
Although Wilson gave him enough space to shoot, driven by anger, the already unstable outside shooting became more and more unstable.
"boom!"
Jordan hit the iron with a three-pointer!
Rodman grabbed the defensive rebound and threw it to Wilson.
The moment Wilson got the ball ~www.mtlnovel.com~ he had already seen CJ on the fast break, and in the blink of an eye, the ball flew out of his hand.
Outside the three-point line in the frontcourt, cj adjusted his pace and played for most of the quarter. This turned out to be the first time he got a shot.
CJ, who received the ball, dribbled a step, made a move to collect the ball and shoot, and flew Bruce Edwards who was chasing from behind.
"What a feint!" Louie roared.
However, CJ is more greedy than he imagined, he will not be satisfied with shaking his opponent away and shooting a three-pointer, he wants to kill.
cj spiritually bumped into Edwards' body, deflecting his jump.
No matter how loose the penalty scale is, the referee has zero tolerance for this unmistakable violation of the cylinder.
The whistle sounded, and Chris Jackson's body crookedly rose into the air, shooting a three-pointer straight up and down in the way of a cowboy drawing a gun.
Basketball hollow pocket!
"omg!" exclaimed Bob Costas, "cj managed to score four in this tight game! How can he be so good! Look! The whole msg is crazy about him!"
