The rest is just noise

Be a little aggressive

"Since the beginning of the game, the Lakers have been in excellent condition. Benjamin Wilson is indeed a player born for big scenes. He took it like a duck to water in the Finals!" Bob Costas looked at his partner with a smile, "Bill, what do you think?

?”

Laimbeer today is basically the same as Tom Heinsohn back then.

If you don't commentate on Celtics games, you can still act like a normal commentator, but when you commentate on Celtics games, you're in trouble. It's just blatantly crooked.

"This is not a good thing. The Lakers are out of shape too quickly!" Laimbeer said. "The core players of the Celtics are veterans. Veterans usually don't get into shape so quickly. They are always slow to warm up and follow suit.

As the game progresses, they will get better and better, and it is not a good thing for the Lakers to start playing so well."

"That's right, let's continue reading."

Costas cheered with a smile.

On the sidelines, Louis glanced at Daley on the opposite side and saw him pointing at the tactical board and saying something seriously.

"I bet they're going to eat pork," Nelson predicted.

Does this mean Barkley is going to be operated on?

Louis asked playfully: "Aren't they eating all the time?"

Nelson said: "That level is nothing. Besides, Karl Malone doesn't have good teeth. This mouthful of pork is not that delicious."

Louis didn't care that the Celtics took advantage of Barkley. This happened as the coaching staff had expected.

Louis made a pre-judgmental arrangement.

First, replace Liu Yuqing, who has just finished warming up, then let Wilson swing to the second position, and then let Rodman come on.

"Dennis, in principle you have to face Grant Hill. This guy has good ball-handling ability and can basically ignore long-range shots. Your main task is to avoid letting Chuck face Hill or Ralph."

Rodman asked: "What if Chuck goes up against Mark Price?"

If it were Price who was five years younger, Louis would really be worried that Barkley would be feasted on.

Price's current physical strength is not as good as Barros. If you want to eat pork, it depends on whether the handle can support it.

Moreover, when the roll call era came, Price was already past his prime. He had no chance to try this style of play in his prime. If the Celtics wanted him to break the game, there was really nothing to fear.

"If they let Price play, we can see the effect first."

Louis didn't think Daley would go this crazy.

Is it really necessary to put Hill aside and let Price risk his life to eat pork?

Wouldn’t it be nice to let Devil Mountain take the first step of the alliance?

If Louis was the head coach of the Celtics, he would arrange it like this.

Although there are technical flaws, Hill's height combined with his unsolvable first step and good ball-handling ability make him indeed a roll call player and ball-handling core with great potential.

The timeout is over and the Celtics have made no personnel adjustments.

Then, Louis saw Price serve a sideline ball.

The person who caught the ball was Hill.

Lukai’s heart is clearly revealed.

Louis snorted and called Rodman, "Dennis, let me see your aggression!"

Rodman nodded in understanding, he knew what to do.

Hill came to the frontcourt and Rodman faced him.

Devil Shan started with a pick-and-roll at the fourth position, and his intention to eat pork was written all over his face.

The Lakers' response was to hide Barkley.

Wilson took turns to cover up the defense, Barkley ran outside, and Rodman led the stage to partially defend one against two.

Since Hill has no long-range shooting ability, even if he gains shooting space due to the pick-and-roll, he cannot take the shot in time. When the Lakers rotate, a good offensive opportunity is lost.

After all, Devil Mountain was too young and too immature. He did not have the determination to implement the coaching staff's tactics to the end. When he saw that the person who was defending him was Wilson, his approach was to pass the ball to Shanton Anderson on the weak side, because

He matched up with Barkley.

Who doesn’t eat pork?

Hill's idea is good, but if Anderson wants to eat pork, he must have Hill's ball-holding ability. Otherwise, no matter how delicious Barkley is, he can only watch but not eat.

The Celtics wasted eighteen seconds and finally gave the ball to Sampson.

When the positional battle reached this point, Daly's timeout arrangement was no longer effective. Sampson relied on his sense of rhythm to shake Garnett and score a jumper from the left side of the free throw line.

7 to 12

Then came the Lakers' round.

Garnett took the ball in the high post and tried to rush Sampson's defense.

His choice was a bit reckless, but it was also courageous. It could be regarded as implementing the tactical intention of consuming Sampson. At the same time, when the offense could not be sustained, he did not foolishly fight to the end, but handed the ball to Barkley in the low post.

Barkley also chose to beat Malone hard.

Malone's positioning and defensive choices are fine, but it's a pity that for a freak like Barkley, his offense doesn't make any sense as long as he has the touch.

His defense did not make any mistakes, but as long as Barkley's ball is not knocked down, no matter how correct the defense is, it will be powerless in the face of brute force that does not pay attention to methods.

14 to 7

Since the beginning of the game, one of the most distinctive characteristics of the Lakers has been their courage to fight and fight hard.

Whether low or high, they have reversed the perception that "the Celtics have an inside advantage".

Barros on the outside dared to name Sampson, Garnett had the courage to challenge Mr. Only, and Barkley had already beaten Malone with two goals.

The Celtics' so-called inside advantage was suddenly burst like a bubble.

Daley shouted anxiously: "Grant, we must implement our tactical intentions!"

Louis doesn't recommend Daley put pressure on Hill like this.

Duke's top student is a flower in the greenhouse. He doesn't know the dangers of the playoffs. Isn't it too early to let him take the lead now?

It's right to let Hill be named, but the first step is to make him adapt to the finals.

Looking at it now, due to Louis' excellent pre-game preparation, there is no Finals phobia in the Lakers, but it is the Celtics who have some problems.

Except for Sampson, no one else showed the strength to crush the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals.

This time, Hill didn't call for a pick-and-roll, and simply passed half of Rodman's body with his explosive first step.

Rodman's eyes flashed fiercely, and he immediately waved his hand and slapped Hill from the arm to the abdomen.

Anyone who has ever received such a punch in a fight can relate to Hill's pain.

Hill fell to the ground on the spot, clutching his lower abdomen and screaming in pain. Rodman was called for a technical foul. He was not sure if this was the aggressiveness Louis wanted.

Louis had a smile on his face, but he accused Rodman: "Dennis, how could you use such despicable methods?! Our Lakers team has been completely embarrassed by you!"

"Forget it, coach, Dennis didn't mean it either." The tragedian calmed things down with a smile.

The Celtics confirmed that Rodman had no problem with eating T.

On the contrary, Bird off the court and Laimbeer in the commentary box had bad memories flashing through their minds.

"That bastard, he's still so mean after all these years!" Bird said unhappily.

There was something Louis didn't know whether he should say or not. This country bumpkin wasn't much better when he beat Ben Ben violently. Could he be trying to say that spitting in people's faces was to arouse others' fighting spirit?

However, it is understandable that Bird was unhappy with Rodman. Although McHale's clothesline has become the most famous violent foul in history, Game7 was the one who KOed Bird.

Neither Bird nor any Celtics fan can doubt that if Bird had not retired due to injury in Game 7 of 1988, the Celtics would have advanced to the Finals.

The past cannot be traced back, and Louis no longer cares who was right or wrong back then. However, the person involved will still get emotional when seeing a similar scene.

Laimbeer went straight to the commentary box to rehash old scores and forgot how much he recognized Rodman in the Western Conference Finals.

"Dennis Rodman! It's him again! He is definitely the most unsportsmanlike professional player I have ever seen! In order to win, he will do whatever it takes. He did it to Larry back then, and he does it to Grant today!"

Costas quickly smoothed things over: "According to the news from the front, Dennis was whistled for a technical foul, and the Celtics will get two free throws and one throw."

"This is good news for Celtic who are lagging behind."

During the Celtics' free throws, Louis called Rodman to his side and said, "What a foul!"

Rodman was happy after hearing what Louis said.

"However, you have to be more restrained." Louis said, "I don't want you to be expelled early."

"Clear!"

Although the scene of Hill's collapse was shocking, the pain did not break the skin and could not cause internal injuries. After the most severe pain passed, he was as good as before.

However, in Hill's eyes, Rodman is no longer the same as before.

He had to consider whether this despicable madman would come to him again.
