The rest is just noise

Two minutes before the end of the first quarter, Louis replaced Wilson, Ellis and the exhausted Ostertag, asked Garnett to play the fifth position, and then let the tragic player play the fourth position, and replaced Liu Yuqing by the way.

and Finlay as the second and third positions.

Sydell Treat looked like he was about to be torn apart by Payton, but Louis insisted on using him.

The team cannot place too many hopes on veterans like Tretter and Harper, but there is no doubt about the stability of the veterans.

Tretter is not as proud as Harper. Even if he is beaten to a pulp by Payton, he can still do his thing without changing his expression.

However, this can only relieve the emergency temporarily.

If you want to win against the Warriors, it's not enough to just limit pennies. Payton also has to hold on.

Because these two are core players who can change the situation.

Because the Warriors were too strong, Louis never let his players use the "shooting star" tactic tonight.

After the tragic player comes on the court, he can go to the low post that he is most familiar with.

However, ever since Louis analyzed the pros and cons to the Tragedian, he knew that his past playing style would not work in "Meteor".

If he wants to enter the "temple", he has to change his style of play.

Even when the Lakers don't use the "Meteor" tactic, he still has to play according to the position when the "Meteor" tactic is launched.

"Why does he need to do this?"

Bird felt there was no need to make such drastic changes to adapt to the new tactics.

"Why do I feel so good?" Louis said cheerfully, "This shows that he really wants to be called 'Magician' again."

As the main culprit who turned the magician into a tragedian, Bird certainly could not fully understand the tragedian's eagerness to prove himself.

In the remaining two minutes of this quarter, the tragedy maker was very impressive.

He did not take the initiative to attack in these two minutes. The only time he took a shot was when Garnett played with the ball for 15 seconds and found that he was not sure to score, so he passed the ball at the last second.

The tragic player received the ball and had less than a second to process it.

He threw it casually and hit a three-pointer.

"Uncle Sad, it's okay!"

Garnett tried to use exaggerated body language and enthusiastic praise to cover up the fact that he stuck to the ball and caused the offense to not go smoothly.

"Kevin Morris Garnett, try to do that to me again!"

Every time Garnett made a mistake, Bird himself would be scolded by Louis.

This time he spoke before Louis did.

"Larry, you can't be nicer to Jasmine, he's just a child!" Coach Lu said over tea.

Coach Lu actually has not lost his humanity?

Garnett is actually more afraid of Louis than he is of Bird.

Because Bird had a clue when he got angry, Louis would often be smiling one second and then going berserk the next.

However, except for the sticky ball and the passing pass just now, Garnett didn't make any mistakes.

He is the best finisher in the eyes of the organizer.

No matter where he is, Garnett is a threat as long as he gets the ball.

He can shoot, break through, and pass.

This is also the reason why the Tragedy Master only takes one shot in two minutes.

Although he does not regard himself as the core of the organization, as a transition point for the ball, he can always send out amazing passes.

In those two minutes, the tragedy maker fed Garnett, sent Liu Yuqing for a layup, and gave Finley a chance to hold the ball in singles in the last 10 seconds.

Letting Finley hold the ball in isolation was the only thing the Tragedy did wrong.

Finley can't dribble.

That single also ended in an error.

At the end of the first quarter, 28 to 34, the Lakers trailed the Warriors by 6 points.

Both teams are teams that specialize in offense. As long as they don't feel too bad, they will definitely contribute to a scoring battle.

"Coach Lu, do you have no one else at the No. 1 position besides those old losers?" Payton shouted, "I think just trade me. Benj and I will join forces, and the Lakers will take off!"

Louis said sarcastically with a smile on his face: "Gary, Benj is a superstar with an annual salary of over 10 million. Don't try to reach high for a small player like you with an annual salary of over 1 million."

"!%@%" Payton said angrily, "Sooner or later my annual salary will be over ten million!"

"But not in Golden State." Louis said sadly. "Mr. Cohan would never want to pay you ten million a year, let alone any other player's salary more than pennies."

All the Warriors' current problems are caused by the new owner and Pence's high salary.

Payton has been dissatisfied for a long time.

In the summer, Payton was close to leaving the team. If Alonzo Mourning hadn't clamored for a billion-dollar contract, the Warriors would have definitely formed an internal and external duo of Pence and Mourning.

Mourning's dream of a billion-dollar contract caused the Warriors to stop trading, allowing the Trail Blazers to reap the benefits, while allowing Payton to remain in the Bay Area.

A series of events have made everyone in the Warriors team panic, and everyone who has the ability wants to run away. Hu Weidong is one of the few who is nostalgic for his old club.

Payton was overcome by Louis' words.

"Coach, you made him angry, and it's me who will suffer!" Treat said with a sad face.

Louis smiled and said: "If you don't want to go, I can ask someone else to do it for you."

Hearing this, Treat was like a pardoned criminal: "Great, I want to rest, coach, I really want to rest!"

Louis missed the tough guys in New York for the nth time.

Even if Stockton was eaten alive by Payton, he wouldn't think about sitting on the sidelines and watching other people play.

The No. 1 position is indeed the biggest problem for the Lakers.

Louis looked around, who among these point guards could count on them?

Harper has been beaten to the point of collapse by Payton, and Treat is just a cowardly rat.

The other two, Rick Bronson and Anthony Goldwire who are not on the active list, are also a dish in front of Payton, right?

"Coach, can you let me try?"

Bronson recommended himself.

"How are you going to deal with Peyton?" Louis asked.

Bronson is quite self-aware: "I can't deal with Payton."

"Then what are you doing up there?"

"Harass him."

"How to harass?"

"Use trash talk."

Louis was like a live audience witnessing Ouyang NANA's "Ants Walking for Ten Years" and other reverse god performances, and his eyes felt dim.

Harassing Payton with trash talk?

"Are you sane, Rick?" Louis asked seriously.

Bronson undoubtedly expected Louis to have this reaction, so he explained: "Coach, I'm not a master of trash talk, but just like what you just did to Payton, he has a very sensitive weakness, and I just need to target him

Weaknesses, maybe..."

Bronson will definitely be beaten by Payton, but if he can change the opponent's mentality, it will be valuable.

It's better than Payton and Tretter who just choose to lie flat.

"That's it."

Louis replaced Bronson and also replaced Finlay with Wilson.

The Lakers started with the Four Knights lineup of Bronson, Liu Yuqing, Wilson, Tragedy and Garnett.

If Bronson hadn't gotten into Payton's mentality, there would have been four other people taking the blame.

It would be interesting if Payton's mentality was really manipulated.

The Lakers can completely use this lineup to play the "shooting star" tactic, and let Bronson be the end point of the tactic. If he can not only adopt Payton's mentality, but also score under the opponent's strict defense, then he can do it more and more.

Thinking of that scene, even if Bronson was at risk of being fucked to death by Peyton, Louis would not hesitate.

As for the Warriors, they replaced Penny to rest and let Payton play with Hu Weidong, Chucky Brown, Gatlin and Sekali.

Seeing Bronson, Payton immediately shouted: "Any cat or dog can compete with me? There is really no one in Los Angeles!"
