The rest is just noise

Chapter 135 There are many contradictions and many problems

Later, midnight snacks were delivered.

Sampson once again complained about his integrity and couldn't stop eating.

Louis followed the topic of offense and talked about defense. Although Sampson is not the core of the offense, he is the core of the defense planned by Louis.

Even if Bird enters the second defense, and even if Laimbeer is a good one-on-one player, there are still major hidden dangers in the defense of the Celtics lineup.

This prevents them from becoming a top defensive team.

The upper limit of the defensive end depends very much on Louis' adjustment of the lineup and the use of Sampson.

Louis hopes to use Sampson as a Kevin Garnett who is two levels lower in athleticism but taller.

One of his requirements for Sampson is to regard the area within the free throw line as his territory.

No matter who dares to touch this area, they must be severely punished on the spot.

Sumpter agrees with Louis' arrangement that size is the core. Although the defensive core is said to be ugly and does the dirty work, looking at the entire team, he is the only one who has the ability to wipe everyone's butt.

After supper, Louis and Sampson left the Greek Academy together.

They each went home.

Louis' "home" refers to Lorraine's apartment.

Lorraine has to go to a language school during the day and make dinner by herself in the evening, waiting for Louis to decide what to do next.

Louis came home late today and arrived at the apartment at ten o'clock.

Since it was getting late, of course, Lorraine could only be punished on the spot.

The next day, Louis differentiated the players based on their skin color and arranged a fierce competition.

The intensity of this competition is far beyond imagination.

·Jones believes that they are playing as an official match.

Cowens called it a mess: "This group of people are already sensitive, and you still ask them to form teams based on their skin color. Is it because you think the chaos is not big enough?"

"Are you worrying about this every day?" Louis asked him angrily, "Ralph still has a lot of bad habits of getting stuck. Why don't you teach him more?"

Cowens rolled his eyes and said indifferently: "How can I teach? Today's young people are more angry than each other. You can't even scold them, but you still teach them?"

Today is the first match between official players.

Louis let Bird, Ainge, Laimbeer, Paxson, and swingman Scott Wedman (SottWedmanSFSG), who joined the team in the offseason, serve as the white team.

Let Thomas, Carr, Long, Maxwell, and Sampson form a team.

After such distribution, Louis can truly understand how crowded the Celtics' current lineup is.

Even if split into two lineups, they can both lead a team to 50 wins.

The friction between Bird and Thomas was magnified in this game.

Moreover, the coaches leading the black team and the white team are also interesting.

Leading the black team is Rudy Tomjanovich, and leading the white team is Jones.

It seems that Louis does not necessarily make distinctions in skin color.

But his distinction brought the color politics within the Celtics to the surface.

They all play according to the system set by Louis yesterday, with the white team playing system No. 2 and the black team playing system No. 1 and system No. 3.

After one game, Bird had 9 assists and hit a buzzer-beater from Isiah Thomas.

"Larry is indeed Larry, we are no match at all." Thomas said in a sinister voice.

Bird didn't take his words to heart. He turned around and walked to the sidelines without even looking at the black team.

"Isiah, it's pointless to say this. It took no effort for Larry to beat you." Laimbeer provoked, "Your lineup is obviously better than ours, but you lost. You have such a core

Inescapable responsibility."

Thomas smiled sarcastically and asked: "So what if I lose? Will I be sentenced to death?"

"That's not necessary, but next time the coach arranges it like this, let's make some bonuses." Laimbeer believes that having a bonus can increase the investment of both parties.

Louis doesn't care what Thomas thinks of Bird, and he doesn't even care about conflicts between players because of their skin color.

This is inevitable in the United States. It is unrealistic to try to eliminate this deep-rooted social contradiction with a few words or rely on the authority of the head coach.

And this is not a problem for the Celtics alone. As long as they are a team, they have conflicts.

As the person who leads the team, all he has to do is to prevent these conflicts from breaking out and guide them to a stable area.

Just after the match ended, Tomjanovich and I came to Louis to report on the match.

"The cooperation of the white team is better than that of the black team. Larry integrated them together." He praised, "This guy is a genius. He can achieve this effect in the first match. It is really amazing."

Tomjanovich was less happy.

"Relying on Isiah alone, System No. 1 cannot be implemented."

After running the system himself, Tomjanovich knew that the No. 1 system was tailor-made for Thomas and Bird.

Utilize Thomas's speed and impact that can tear apart any defense, combined with Bird's perfect high-post offensive threat, to create an all-around system that can threaten the penalty area inside and penetrate the Yangtze with a hundred steps outside.

Most teams would have a headache just trying to limit Thomas' offense. Add Bird to the outside to support him, and the intensity and pressure on the offensive end will go up several levels.

I don't think any team can handle this system, let alone three other offensive systems.

It is very difficult to integrate into these systems, make the system work for oneself, and quickly achieve a tacit understanding between players to the point where they can know each other's thoughts just by relying on their movements. Especially since there is a gap between Thomas and Bird, and Bird disdains it.

When you don't want to get close to your teammates.

"Although the No. 3 system is simple, the essence of the four-corner offense lies in the movement of the corner players." And Louis hopes that they will only be responsible for pulling outside the three-point line to create space for Thomas to deal with the opponent alone.

Tomjanovich continued: "Isiah is obviously not used to this kind of four-corner attack."

These problems all exist objectively.

But what Louis cares about are other details.

The white team also has many problems. In the match just now, new aid Weidman and rookie Paxson made mistakes in the "L" tactic at least 7 times, and they all relied on Bird, a trader who can be called Buffett on the court, to make up for it.

In other words, the white team can do better. They are very unfamiliar with the tactics and everyone is getting used to it. Only Bird has mastered the system from the first game.

The problem with the black team is not so much that Thomas is awkward, but that Sampson and Maxwell have some problems.

They don't have the awareness to play the No. 2 and No. 3 core of the No. 1 system when Bird is gone.

They did not inherit the work that originally belonged to Byrd.

Sampson's pick-and-roll quality was very poor, and he didn't grasp the timing well. Although Maxwell's cutting inside was very sharp, his protection of rebounds was really not like that of a fourth position.

"Dave, if within two months, Ralph's screening and positioning are still the same," Louis said harshly, "get out!"

Louis always falls out when he falls out, and his emotions are more unpredictable than a baby's.

But he always quickly returned to normal after the fall-out, and said to him pleasantly: "Tomorrow I will break up the lineup and we will continue to play the match."

After saying that, Louis went to urge Laimbeer to practice three-pointers.

Cowens complained loudly after he left: "Is the kid so emotionally unstable?"

"You don't think he asked you to be an assistant coach because he appreciates your other abilities, right?"

"Isn't it because of my charisma that shines through?"

"What do you think?"

The next day, the competition started again.

Louis put Bird, Thomas, Ainge, Maxwell, and Carr on the same team.

This lineup is the perfect combination of a deadly penalty area threat and a perimeter threat, with smart off-ball runners and bold cutters.

Sure enough, when the right five people got together, they beautifully played the basic routines of System No. 1 and System No. 2.

Bird has mastered the essence of high-position play, but his teammates still make mistakes in their movements.

When the tactics go wrong, a timeout will be called.

"It's obviously the same routine, why do you keep making the same mistakes?"

"You have to ask those people," Bird sneered, "I don't know why I can't remember just those few running methods, why I ran wrong. Could it be that I had a pig brain replacement in the summer?

Have you mastered the technique?"

Maxwell and Karl were mortified.

On the other side of the court, Sampson lost to Bird in consecutive position battles.

Cowens found that his job was in jeopardy because of Sampson.

He is anxious!

He is really anxious!

Cowens bared his teeth like a wild dog and roared: "Ralph, you are a man? Do you want me to give you a pair of bras? You should put on some fucking lipstick, it's as soft as cheese!"

Originally, Sampson had no intention of talking to him.

When Bird pushed his abdomen with a small movement, he clutched his stomach and screamed in pain.

"Stop screaming, you weakling!" Cowens yelled.

Sampson was immediately furious: "Shut your stinky mouth!"

"You want me to shut up? Then you should be tougher. I've been forced to teach you, but you turned a deaf ear to my teachings. If I were still playing ball, I would definitely kill you, you bastard!"

Cowens' sweet talk turned Sampson's humiliation into strength. He roared heartbreakingly and used his talent to dominate the rebounds.

Like any honest man who is cornered, Sampson exploded.

"It would have been fine if it had been like this!"

"Shut your fucking mouth!"

"Okay, okay, shut up, come on, don't let me remind you again." Cowens was really afraid of dampening his enthusiasm.

But Louis came over and said to Cowens: "He is still using his talent to grab rebounds. You have to find a way to correct this."

Although Louis has let Sampson watch the blocking videos of Moses Malone and Maurice Lucas for several years, blocking on the court is more about habit and willingness. Some people see their opponents shooting and first

Time goes to get stuck, and some people still have to wait for the ball to hit the basket before reacting.

Sampson belongs to the latter. This is a bad habit brought about by talent, just like those talented monsters who stand outside the three-point line and are unable to thrive. They all have an impact on their own technical progress due to their excessive talent.
