The rest is just noise

The Celtics haven't had a coach like this in a long time.

Louis is a man of his own words. He not only values ​​the authority of the coach, but is also very strict with the stars.

He allows role players to make mistakes, but he doesn't allow stars to make mistakes.

Because role players who make mistakes can at most cost the team one game, while star players who make mistakes may ruin the team's entire season.

Many people's concerns about Louis favoring Lu Wuxia were dispelled after the first day of training.

Judging from the way Louis treated ish, it was impossible to tell that they were father and son. After the match, Louis continuously pointed out ish's mistakes during the training session and sternly reprimanded: "As the core of the team, you cannot take the lead in making mistakes.

!」

Then in the second day of the match, because the rookie *** Barea ignored Yao Yueban several times, Louis stopped the game. He first pointed out the Puerto Rican problem. Then, when the match was over, Louis stopped the game.

Yao Yueban called to his side and criticized him.

"You are our inside man. If you are uncomfortable playing, other people will also have problems. I don't need you to be a good guy in the team. If someone ignores you, you should yell loudly and don't pretend to be a good guy."

He looks like a good old man!"

It can be said that Yao Yueban was the person who felt the changes in Louis most deeply.

Because he played for Louis when he was in the national team.

At that time, Louis was also very authoritative, but generally he was a gentle and gentle coach. In the words of the domestic media, Louis had the style of a scholar and a handsome coach.

However, the current Louis is completely different from the road guide Yao Yueban knew.

"I don't want to make everyone unhappy because of a trivial matter." Yao Yueban expressed his worries.

Louis snorted: "It wasn't like you weren't ignored last season. I remember you were so angry that you threw a towel on the spot. Do you think it's useful? Whether it's enduring your teammates' mistakes or sulking alone,

None of them are ways to solve the problem. How to solve the problem? It's very simple. If you have something to say, go straight to the point. This is not a country. You have to talk to foreigners in a way they can understand!"

"Whoever doesn't pass the ball to you, you yell at him! Whoever plays has a problem, you point out the problem loudly! If someone refuses to correct his mistake, I will arrange a VIP seat for him on the bench. All you have to do is

Work with Wuxia to establish the authority of core players!"

Louis behaved in such a domineering manner that it was hard to breathe.

This is where Yao Yueban's hard days began.

Louis didn't have many technical requirements for him, but the transformation of his character, or the cultivation of his domineering power, can be said to be very radical.

Louis hopes that Yao Yueban will not only look like an insider boss, but also have the same personality.

Therefore, if Yao Yueban does something that is not consistent with his status as the boss, Louis will educate him severely.

This process was so extreme that if Yao Yueban missed a layup when he clearly had the option of dunking under the basket, Louis would punish him for running laps.

In less than three days, the marks left by Jones, Chuck Daly, Isiah Thomas, Larry Bird and others for the Celtics all disappeared. Louis used his own way to make the Celtics

It took on a whole new temperament.

Assistant coach Bill Laimbeer, who was very familiar with this, said to the players who were drilled to death by Louis: "If you think this life is too difficult, I would recommend you to read Isaiah's autobiography and his experiences.

In comparison, the Coach Lu you met is already a version transformed by angels."

After hearing what Laimbeer said, many people in the Celtics team bought Thomas's recently published autobiography "My Years of Making a Difference in the NBA."

Once Thomas's autobiography was released, it quickly rose to the top of Amazon's autobiography new book sales list. This was mainly because he disclosed a lot of NBA insider information in his autobiography. Among them, the most explosive insider information was the period when he played under Louis.

The experience of time.

Thomas vividly described Louis's violence, arbitrariness, and violence, and presented to the readers a series of PUAs that Louis had against him in detail.

Thomas even discusses the road in the book

Is Yi a racist? Thomas believes that Louis is indeed a racist, but he discriminates against the "rebellious tribe", that is, the disobedient group. Anyone who does not accept his coaching will be discriminated against, which will lead to his attacks and

curse.

Thomas spent a long time describing Louis, successfully establishing the image of a tyrant and dictator in the minds of some people who did not know Louis well.

Some people who read Thomas's autobiography asked Ranbir: "Is everything in it true? Did you really say that word (starting with N) to Isiah?"

Ranbir was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that dwarf to even mention such things in the book just for a gimmick. Can this be said?

"Nonsense!" Ranbir didn't expect to recommend these bastards to read the book and he saw something wrong. He should have read it before recommending it. "How could I say such a thing? What if I said such a thing?

Maybe he gets along well with Isiah? How can he be his assistant? This is a story he made up!"

Everyone was skeptical about this, because the story written by Thomas seemed very real, and it did seem like something a scumbag like Ranbir could do.

Louis heard about Thomas's autobiography and knew that the autobiography had already caused heated discussion in the circle.

But he was not affected.

After all, if stars want to attract the attention of fans after retiring, they can either make violent comments to gain attention, write autobiographies to recall their past, or make documentaries. Therefore, no matter what Thomas writes in his autobiography, he doesn't care.

After five days of training and running-in, Louis had a preliminary understanding of the overall strength of the team, and the players also had a little understanding of the character and hobbies of his new coach. However, Lu Wuxia was a little doubtful about life, because his loyal father suddenly seemed like

It was as if he didn't recognize him as his son. During the training period, he almost never smiled at him once.

He originally thought that after his father came back, the Celtics would return to the happy basketball game they had in the past, with everyone having fun together, but his father used a breathtaking pressure to make everyone understand the team's goals.

It's about winning the championship. Whoever dares to get playful before this goal is achieved, he will train that person to become a happy guy.

On the sixth day of the training camp, Louis was uncharacteristic. Not only did he not play a match to warm up everyone's hands as before, but he stopped today's match and used today's match time to hold a meeting in the video analysis room.

At the meeting, Louis showed everyone a new offensive system, which integrated the three major systems established by the Thomas era and carried forward new tactics in the Bird era.

Louis named this system (Sevenseore/7 seconds or less, 20 seconds or more).

The new system designed by Louis combines the characteristics of folding offense, pick-and-cut offense and pick-and-roll offense, and gives him half of the running and gunning characteristics of the Suns in the Nash era. But what is different from that Suns is

, Louis did not repeatedly emphasize the fast-paced game.

Its characteristic is to make the offense more layered. After halftime, if the ball-holding core cannot quickly complete the positional battle through pick-and-roll tactics within seven seconds (7 seconds or less), it needs to pass the ball out and transfer in.

Screen and cut system and break zone offense (20 seconds or more).

At this time, there is no longer any priority on the court. Running, transferring the ball, transition, screening, blocking and cutting are all indispensable. It takes nearly 10 seconds to complete such a complex offense.

This series of changes completely changed the Celtics' previous tactical style, but it also proved to a certain extent that Louis is indeed immortal.

When Bird saw the playbook in the general manager's office, he was very excited, just like when he saw "Beautiful Basketball" for the first time.

As for the players, it's not that easy.

The first half of the tactic is (7 seconds or less). The ball during this period is controlled by him and other ball-holding cores. If the attack cannot be completed within this time, it needs to be transferred to (20 seconds or longer).

, considering the style and rhythm of today's games, it is impossible to complete the attack within 7 seconds in every round, which means that there is no way.

However, you need to be prepared to run a lot of off-ball tactics.

Yao Yueban is no longer a pure offensive machine and rim protector. When the tactics enter (20 seconds or more), he needs to take on some support tasks. In the same way, Gasol can no longer serve from a high position as he did in the past.

cards and shooting. Under the new system, he also needs to take on some offensive tasks.

Almost everyone was driven out of their comfort zone by Louis, and everything they were used to was overturned.

Rookie assistant coach Steve Kerr asked in surprise: "In the past three years, the Celtics won the championship once and failed in the conference finals twice. This shows that the inherent system is working. Is it necessary to do this?"

Louis glanced at Cole and smiled lightly: "Yes, and this is just the first step of change."
