The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 978 unhealthy mr jordan
"Coach Riley believes that this year's Finals is just a continuation of last year. Portland is eager for the title, and they want to take it away from New York with their own hands."
NBC's Frontline reporter Hannah Storm speaks to the camera.
At this time, the starters of the Knicks and Trail Blazers were already on the court.
For the Knicks, the starting lineup remains unchanged.
The Blazers also continued their invincible five-star formation.
In the jump ball stage, Ewing jumped hard and won the opening ball for the Knicks in the finals.
Stockton took the ball to the frontcourt, and the Knicks' offense spread rapidly before the Blazers' defensive line was built.
Wilson screens off the ball for Miller.
Miller ran out from the right wing, caught the ball, pulled up and shot from within two steps of the 3-point line.
Even with a defense as strong as Jordan's, there's very little that can be done under this high-quality cover.
Miller scored a jumper for the Knicks to hit a record shot with the meaning of the opener.
2 to 0
"Michael, we're not the rotten fish and rotten shrimp you met in the West!" Miller yelled wildly, "My shot will **** shoot all of you!"
For Miller, it's about putting pressure on opponents whenever they get the chance.
He is very similar to Wilson, but unfortunately, he is not the ace core like Wilson.
As an off-ball shooter, the best game state is to be as reticent as Ellis, reduce his sense of existence, and only make people feel threatened when he takes the ball.
Of course, this also divides people.
Let Louis choose, he prefers Ellis.
It is undeniable that Miller did this to lift his spirits and have a positive effect on the team. If the opponent cannot counterattack, he will be suppressed all the time.
The Blazers' response was also straightforward.
Isiah Thomas dribbled the ball and pierced Stockton's perimeter defense with little effort.
Watching him drive past Stockton was as easy as having no defender in front of him.
Stockton's underhanded moves against floor guards have no effect under the obvious talent gap.
Thomas' breakthrough caused the Knicks' defense to shrink, and Jordan on the outside got an open space.
The assassin's ball was passed, and the trapeze received the ball at a 45-degree angle from the left wing.
Last year, the Trail Blazers lost to Wilson's three-pointer. This incident seriously stimulated Jordan. Since the dream team training, he has been looking for Wilson and Bird all day to learn from each other.
After a year of hard work, he regained his past touch and adapted to the latest muscle memory.
At the moment, the Knicks are giving him a chance like they did last year.
Jordan's shot was not soft, and he hit a hollow three-pointer.
3 to 2
"He's more willing to shoot the 3 than he used to be," Tomjanovich said.
Zhao Yuanzheng said with a solemn face: "Moreover, it's more accurate."
Jordan's 3-point shooting dropped to 24 percent last season, the lowest since 1988.
This season, Jordan's three-point shooting percentage in the regular season has risen to 36%, which is considered a normal level. In the playoffs, it suddenly reached 39.4%, which is an excellent threshold above the league average.
And what he improved is not only efficiency, but also the number of shots.
So far in the playoffs, he has averaged 1.8 three-pointers per game. For a player like Jordan, he can average 1.8 three-pointers per game with a shooting rate of 39.4%. It can be said that he is already a player with no solution on the offensive end.
At this time, he made a three-pointer and returned the trash talk to Miller: "I will not only shoot through your defense, but also make you never dare to let me shoot a three-pointer!"
Jordan's aggressive posture was not like the one in Louis' memory.
Jordan is indeed the kind of Hannibal-style style that not only kills the opponent, but also eats the heart of the opponent, but it is not enough to show his teeth and claws at the beginning.
When he did this, he could only say that he took a breath of anger that was hard to swallow.
"Mickey's mentality doesn't look healthy."
Louis asked the left and right, "Is something wrong?"
Most of Louie's assistant coaches don't care about gossip. The only one who can give a general idea is the young trainer Quinn Snyder: "Mj has been frequently in and out of casinos recently, and was photographed by the paparazzi."
The paparazzi filmed it, the media exposed it, and the New York media exaggerated?
It feels like this is basically the process.
In Louie's previous life, there was indeed a conspiracy theory that Jordan was privately suspended by Stern for two years for excessive gambling.
The experience of coaching the Dream Team also let Louis know how addicted Jordan is to gambling.
If only one of Jordan's many hobbies remains, Louis is really not sure that he will give up gambling for basketball.
"Yuanzheng, go and find out." Louis said.
Zhao Yuanzheng nodded, and quietly left the scene to collect information.
If Jordan's impatience is not temporary, it's the Knicks' opportunity.
Regardless of whether it was related to off-court affairs or not, Louis didn't want to let go of this opportunity.
The Blazers' five-star formation is completely different from the style of play Riley wants to play.
Riley hopes to play basketball that is full of confrontation and physical contact like the Knicks. The Knicks are iron-blooded basketball. Of course, he cannot be exactly the same. He calls this style of play rugby tactics.
However, the Blazers' five-star formation objectively does not have the ability to play football tactics.
Among the Knicks' starters, Stockton, who is the most defensive defensively, is at the level of the steal king, while the Trail Blazers' entire set of starters, the only one with a balanced defense and no problems is Jordan. Others like Sabonis (slow) and Nance (slow due to age) have weaknesses that can be targeted.
Not to mention the two heads of Barkley and Thomas.
Because of innate inadequacies, the Blazers' starting and substitute play styles are split.
Riley doesn't want the starters to play an overly intense game, which also gives false impressions to their opponents. They thought the Blazers only had this kind of intensity, but when the substitutes came up, they found that the level of the game had suddenly escalated.
The strength of the starting lineup lies in the unsolvable offense brought about by the overflow of talent, while the substitute is purely an improvement in confrontation.
Within two minutes, Miller was stuck to death by Jordan, Wilson missed a jumper, the Blazers countered and was chased by Kemp, and Nance grabbed an offensive rebound to make a tip;
Wilson also made a mid-range shot;
Barkley violently knocked Wilson away and went to the basket and was blocked by Ewing. Sabonis caught the offensive rebound and made a second attack;
Stockton missed an open three-pointer, and the Knicks, who were grabbed consecutive offensive rebounds, took advantage of the inside. Ewingka killed Sabonis, making him unable to take off, allowing Kemp to grab the offensive rebound and make a violent dunk.
Riley was dissatisfied with the team's performance.
He felt that the team was not playing with the intensity he wanted to see.
Even if their starters were already required to control the intensity of the game, he didn't want to see the Knicks stealing their offensive rebounds like this.
Riley's anger was poured into Sabonis: "Big man, you have to be seated! Do you understand? You have to be seated! Damn, we asked you to do this!"
Sabonis was furious after hearing the translation: "I'm really stuck!"
Louie watched the play from a distance like an outsider.
He found that this pioneer is not monolithic.
The Knicks have many problems, and so do others.
Looking at Riley's ugly face, why is Sabonis the only one to blame for the rebound?
The other starters are too big, he can only use Sabonis, and there is nothing wrong with that.
"Patrick, are you sure you can suppress the Lithuanians?" Louie asked during a pause.
Ewing has already fought Sabonis several times, and the addition of these few minutes is enough for him to make a judgment on the opponent: "He is not my opponent."
"Let's clarify a few points!"
Louie unfolded the tactical board.
"Don't be burdened, take the initiative to bring up the rhythm. Nance and the Lithuanians can't keep up with our speed, and Barkley will also get lost in the fast game rhythm. To put it bluntly, only two of them adapt to the fast-paced game."
"There is a chance for fast break shots, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com make bold shots! John, Reggie, benj, even Patrick, Sean and others, boldly take fast break shots and wear them down!"
"We want to use this method to make them mistakenly believe that our offensive center of gravity is the periphery, but our real goal is the penalty area. When we fall into positional warfare, everyone's first goal should be the penalty area. Nance is not terrible, Sabonis Kong is tall but slow as a tortoise, as long as they are afraid of our shots and get out of the paint for this, his help defense threat is limited!"
"And then the defense—"
Since Mr. Jordan's mentality is wrong, Louis is obliged to help him correct his mentality.
If the overstrike made his mentality worse, then Louis can only say that he has done his best, and Mr. Jordan himself is not up to date.
"From now on, use the 'rules' on MJ, and don't let him take open three-pointers."
After Louis made some arrangements, the referee came to urge them to play.
