The rest is just noise

Chapter 143 Fly in the ointment (1/53)

Chuck Daly didn't understand why the atmosphere on the court suddenly increased. After trying a three-guard lineup and failing, the Pistons were in trouble.

Despite Worthy's offense, the Celtics couldn't solve it.

But they also couldn't handle the Celtics' offense.

While Worthy cannot guarantee success every time, the Celtics can create good opportunities with an efficient and convenient offensive system.

Bird apparently remembered what Louis asked him to say in response to Worthy.

Therefore, although Isiah Thomas is on the court, he only stands in the high post and waves people away without moving.

When Worthy dared to let him go, he raised his hand and threw it away.

"Whoosh!"

"Larry, you are too accurate. Their inside line is useless!" M.L. Carr shouted loudly, "If it were me, I would have blocked your shot!"

Bird laughed at him and said: "I will always be covered, but you will never grow to seven feet tall in your next life."

"I would dare to cover you even if I were a few sections shorter, but unlike that bitch opposite who likes to use his face to catch other people's punches, he will always just hide in and let his teammates guard you. What the hell!" He talks ill of people behind their backs.

Forget it, Karl's voice was loud enough that the fans in the front row could hear it clearly.

It was the first time that Louis' girlfriend saw players talking trash like this. She thought it was "routine practice" and suddenly thought, this sport seems quite interesting?

If Louis knew Lorraine had this reaction, he wouldn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Obviously, this Italian woman has some violent tendencies.

Bird didn't have any options to deal with Worthy.

Since you can't guard against his offense, guard against him catching the ball.

Bird wanted to make sure that all the hair on his body was exerting its strength. He pressed hard against Worthy's body and stretched out his hands to defend himself, which was extremely vicious.

The Pistons struggled to get the ball to Worthy.

Behind the scenes, the rivalry between Ranbir and Benson is also heating up.

He made a small move, and Benson, who was already angry, became even more angry. He clamped Ranbir's arm.

Laimbeer screamed and threw a violent elbow, making the referee believe that it was his subconscious reaction. If Benson had not grabbed his arm, this scene would not have happened.

Laimbeer succeeded in elbowing him, and Benson elbowed him back, and both sides stared angrily.

Isiah Thomas saw the conflict inside and instinctively wanted to step forward, but when he saw that the target was Ranbir, he hesitated.

He did not join the fight immediately. Instead, Karl and Anji came to support Ranbir, and the game was interrupted again.

Even Bird, that unconcerned bastard, went to ask about Ranbir, while Thomas was still standing outside.

Louis didn't remind him or influence his decision. He just wanted to see what Thomas would do in the end.

Neither the Pistons nor the Celtics are thinking about the same thing.

Benson received an offensive foul and Daley called a timeout.

He wanted to know what happened, but the only answer he got was Benson's harsh words aimed at the entire Celtics team.

Benson also wanted to know why the whole world suddenly became his enemy. He just had a bad temper. He probably didn't have the word "deserting a beating" written on his face, right?

Daly was unable to replace Benson because the Pistons relied heavily on Benson's height and rebounding ability.

When the timeout ended, the Celtics made no personnel adjustments, and Louis did not interfere with the conflict, but only praised everyone's unity in resisting foreign enemies.

"I like your attitude of standing up for your teammates, that's it, keep it up!"

Louis' words made Thomas feel guilty. He played for Bob Knight in college.

Although Knight was cruel and would beat players, he prohibited internal fighting between players. Only his fists could fall on them, and they could not attack each other. This was a death order.

"You can hate me, but you can't hate each other." This is Knight's law of death.

Knight instills in his players the idea of ​​"standing up for their teammates on the court" every day.

In the round just now, Thomas violated his principles, and even Karl stood up for Ranbir. Karl should know where his conflict with Ranbir was. He knew that Ranbir said that word to him, but he still stood up for Ranbir.

Bird hit another high jumper, making Worthy's defense seem like it didn't exist.

45 to 33

The 12-point advantage could not be opened up. Daley didn't know what Louis was planning, he just felt something was wrong.

Tripka's counterattack layup continued to stop the Pistons' bleeding.

This is all they seem to be able to do.

"He seemed very uneasy." Tomjanovich asked, "Did he go too far?"

"If your teammates got into a fight and the other three people went to help, but you were the only one who didn't move, would you feel at ease?" Louis asked.

Tomjanovich's face darkened: "Don't tell me about the fight, it gives me a headache when you talk about it."

Hearing this, Louis smiled, he had really forgotten about this.

Do you have any objection to saying that Tomjanovich was the most seriously injured in all the fights in NBA history? Probably not. He could have stood up at the NBA fight history seminar and asked them to find the second place directly, because the first place

His name can only be his.

When Louis and Tomjanovich were joking, Thomas suddenly accelerated and pierced the penalty area like a thorn.

Benson was so furious that he almost lost his sanity and rushed forward and knocked Thomas down.

"Don't even think about scoring points with me!" he got angry.

"Hey! Our coach is right, you are just a fucking follicle who can only attack small people. If you have the ability, try to attack me!"

The referee was going crazy. He had just stopped the fight for a few rounds, so why did they get into it again?

Hugh Hollins was extremely angry. He was just about to call a technical foul to make these bastards obey the rules, when he saw Thomas standing up angrily behind Benson and preparing to take action.

Too close! If he had taken action from this distance, Benson would have received at least two punches.

The referee underestimated the speed of Thomas' punches, and Benson was quickly attacked by Thomas. His fists did not retain any strength and he hit him hard.

Benson was so painful that he almost vomited out his lungs. He was about to turn around and fight back, but unexpectedly Ranbir shouted: "Don't fight, don't fight, don't fight!"

After saying that, he stretched out his hands to clamp him, and then used force to make them fall to the ground, but Thomas was left alone. The shame prevented Thomas from staying out of the matter. He saw Ranbir's intention to "break up the fight", let alone

He was polite to the other party, then immediately got on top of Benson and punched him twice in the face.

"Don't fight, don't fight~~~"

Lambir's ability to break up fights stunned Louis.

By the time the referee arrived, Benson had been beaten to a point where his nose was bleeding and his face was swollen. His teammates wanted to ask for an explanation, but the referee gave them an explanation.

Thomas received two technical fouls and was ejected on the spot.

Benson was carried out on a stretcher. He was still conscious, but he was bleeding heavily and had to leave.

"!@#¥¥@#¥"

His roar was unclear, showing his anger.

Ranbir, the culprit who caused Benson to suffer this disaster, said regretfully: "I told you not to fight, don't fight, can't you fucking understand human language?"

Thomas gave Ranbir his middle finger before leaving.

"Isn't this a good match?" Louis said with a smile.

When Tomjanovich saw this scene, he couldn't laugh at all: "Does it have to be like this?"

"Leaving your back to an unknown enemy is inherently dangerous, and Kenny Benson deserves it." Louis had no sympathy for the beaten Benson.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.

Tomjanovich thought about it carefully, and Kermit Washington had his back turned to him back then.

Washington has always been one of the best thugs in the league. When the conflict occurred, he saw someone running from behind. Would he believe that Tomjanovich was just trying to break up the fight?

If viewed according to this explanation, Washington's reaction seems explainable.

It's just that many years have passed, and Tomjanovich doesn't want to think about it anymore. Louis' words made him look back on the past again.

Benson was taken off the court, leaving the Pistons without a pillar inside.

Daly was extremely angry. He thought the Celtics did this just to make their inside line unavailable.

"I didn't expect that young man to look so immature and resort to such extreme methods!" Dai Li became more and more angry as he thought about it, "I really fell into his trap today!"

Daly couldn't help but give it a try and once again came up with a three-guard system. However, this time the combination was a point guard with two shooting guards. He had to rely on offense to fight the Celtics to the end.

There was something unexpected that happened to Louis.

After finishing Benson, Carl ran over and asked Louis: "Would you like to arrange for James Worthy by the way? I think he has been unhappy for a long time!"

"Go away, play hard for me!" Louis roared, "You know how to use these sideways all day long, do you have any professional ethics? Coaching people like you really makes me feel ashamed, disappear from me!"

Karl was scolded for no apparent reason.

"Why did Coach Lu say that he would fall out when he fell out?" Karl didn't understand.

Anji sneered: "Because he has achieved his goal."

"Just for Kenny Benson? That's not it, is it?"

Anji was too lazy to talk to him. This man seemed to have put all his brain cells into the matter of being a bitch. When it came to other things that required using his brain, he was usually not very smart.

This guy is so soulless.

At halftime, the Pistons' forced use of a three-back tactic only resulted in one result: the Celtics' offense broke through.

Not only Bird's line, but the defenses of several other lines were also blown apart.

Without Thomas, Bird had enough stage to express himself. He unceremoniously defeated Worthy in half a quarter.

Although Worthy's offense is difficult to guard, he is suitable for one-on-one. If the Celtics' attack becomes more intense, he will not be able to force opportunities.

At halftime, the Celtics' advantage reached 20+.

"Little Lu, how do you evaluate this half of the game?"

"a fly in the ointment."

"Is the lack you're referring to the conflict between Isiah and Kenny Benson?"

"No, what I said was insufficient is that we didn't lead by 25 points." Louis explained why he was so frivolous. "Coach Daley said at the beginning that he would create some trouble for us. I don't like to be passive, so I decided to

Make them trouble before you make trouble."

"So, I want to take the 25-point lead as a problem for the Pistons." Louis said modestly, "Unfortunately, we did not achieve this goal, so it is a fly in the ointment."
