The rest is just noise

Drexler played very lively, it looked like he was going to lead the team to defeat the Celtics.

In fact, he was the Blazers' only consistent contributor in the second quarter.

Because he is a rookie, and Ramsey doesn't like to use him, the teams basically don't scout him. They only know that he has top physical fitness. Louis knows that he is very strong, but looking at his data, he also knows that he is in the Trail Blazers.

He was still a marginalized character, but unexpectedly he was suddenly taken out to put out the fire, and he still did well.

Without Drexler, Thomas would have built a 15-point lead in the first half of the second quarter.

Although the situation is not good now, it is not that big of a problem.

The reason why Drexler couldn't be held down was that he was tactically shorted by the Celtics.

Off the court, Louis acted as a permission dog and asked Bird to stand at attention. After a little defense of the coach's authority, he called him and Laimbeer to his side and gave detailed instructions.

"Their double high and low positions are very oppressive in the penalty area, but neither of them is good at controlling the ball, so if you have the opportunity, you can attack from a double flank. You're welcome."

"As for the rookie who has been flying in the sky, if you pay attention, you will find that his offense has several characteristics."

Louis suddenly fell silent.

"What characteristics?" Bird asked.

"You want to blow him up so much, but you can't even notice this little detail?" Louis asked disappointedly.

Bird said proudly: "I didn't even want to appear on the stage."

"So you blame me?" Louis seemed ready to be a permission dog again.

Bird immediately changed his mind, "No, I was careless."

Ranbir's eyes were weird. Why did Bird suddenly change his gender? This was unnatural. The most arrogant, arrogant bastard he had ever seen, suddenly became as docile as a dog? No, it's worse than him.

dog.

"At present, he basically only has two ways of attacking through the team's tactics, especially the double high and low attack and then passing to the outside, and the defender will send the pass to him to finish at the basket; the other is very simple, because our

The scouting report states that he can't shoot, so you guys really don't guard his shots."

Drexler's outbursts are not uncommon.

Although unexpected, it is easy to contain.

If the Blazers rely on him to support the game, then the result is basically doomed.

"Since you want to give him a little show, find a way to cut off the passing line between him and his teammates. Don't give him comfortable open shooting opportunities. On the offensive end, find a way to hit him more, preferably with that kind of damage.

A highly sexual and insulting attack." Louis smiled, "The last one shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

Laimbir thought of a good idea: "Let's do this, you tell him you will use your dick to push the ball into the basket, and then do what you say. I think as long as you can succeed, he will jump off the building before the game is over."

.”

"I've never seen anyone shoot with a dick, how about you teach me?" Bird asked jokingly.

"Yes, Bill, you come and try it for everyone. If you can't do it, I'll call a timeout later and pull you into the bathroom for chemical castration!"

Louis said something that made Lambir feel cold in his crotch.

One minute later, Bird and Laimbeer replaced Maxwell and M.L. Carr.

As soon as he came on the court, Bird said to Drexler: "It's time for your monkey show to end!"

Then, Drexler was ready to make a move. He had been looking forward to Bird playing, especially when he was in good condition. If he could beat Bird, he would become famous in one battle. Even Ramsey would have to look at him with admiration.

He didn't know what to do, he just ran and moved with the others, hoping for a chance to score.

But, his chance no longer presented itself.

Although his teammates saw Drexler in the open space, Bird's divine hand cut the basketball off halfway.

Bird gave it to Thomas first and followed slowly.

The Blazers were determined not to let the Celtics play fast breaks. Even if there were only two players, they had to retreat at full speed and successfully prevented Thomas from hitting the ball to the basket.

When they rushed to the basket, Bird had just reached the three-point line.

Thomas passed the ball back, and at the top of the arc, at the three-point line, Burdette was about to throw the ball. In the blink of an eye, he dropped the ball because Drexler behind him was aggressively trying to chase the shot.

Bird seemed to be able to see the scene behind his head and perfectly predicted Drexler's block.

He released the ball, took one step to adjust, and Drexler watched helplessly as he threw the ball.

The basketball flew to the highest point. This was a rare three-point chase in the 1980s.

"Whoosh!"

"You look like a monkey from a distance and a pig up close." Bird seemed unaware that his words would risk being accused of racial discrimination. "Now I am sure that you are a monkey with a pig's brain."

"Not happy?" Bird sneered, "Try to guard against me first!"

After beating Bird to death, Drexler didn't even know why the birdman had so much ill will towards him.

"Little Lu", the mastermind behind this situation, said to Tomjanovich with a solemn expression: "Isn't Larry going too far? He's still nagging after scoring. Are all country people so unqualified?"

Tomjanovich had to pretend that he didn't know that it was all because of Louis' behind-the-scenes instigation.

"Larry is indeed a bit unforgiving," Tomjanovich said unconscionably.

"This country bumpkin should be sent back to college for another four years of education. His quality is too poor!" Louis muttered.

When it comes to defending Drexler, the Celtics have a clear division of labor.

If he chooses to wander near the basket, let Bird provide glue defense.

If he is far away from the paint, such as running to the free throw line, let Sampson help defend. Once he runs further away, the Celtics can ignore him.

At least that was before Michael Jordan entered the league in 1984.

In the history of the NBA, there has never been a swingman with a height of over 198 centimeters who has mastered stable long-distance two-pointers from the beginning.

The more talented a person is, the easier it is to dominate the secondary leagues.

They take advantage of their talent and are naturally too lazy to work hard on technical details.

Drexler didn't depart from this phenomenon either.

Sampson brought a lot of defensive pressure like a phantom.

Drexler began to disappear from the court.

And when the Celtics attacked, the Trail Blazers' troubles became even greater.

Isiah Thomas activated the No. 3 system, and the four-corner offense played sharply.

The Trail Blazers only knew how to guard against his breakthrough and the cut-in of wing players, but they did not expect Thomas to collect the ball and shoot a jumper the moment he found the open space.

Drexler appeared at the free throw line to catch the ball and wanted to shoot, but was blocked by Sampson.

The Celtics fought back again.

The point difference was stretched to 13 points, and Ramsey could only call a timeout to interrupt the Celtics' surging offensive.

"They hope to compete with us using tactics. Although this is a bit led by them, I think from the bottom of my heart that even if we use tactics, we are better."

After that, Louis replaced Isiah Thomas, who played most of the quarter.

His eyes turned to John Paxson, "John, I need you to hit three three-pointers."

"If you can do it, I'll let you play."

"I can give it a try," Paxson said.

"Try it? I don't want to hear this kind of answer. Can you, can you or can't you? Give me a happy word!"

The referee came because the Blazers called a short timeout.

"Little Lu?"

"Can it?" Louis asked.

"Definitely!" Paxson shouted to encourage himself.

Louis put down the tactical board and said to Bird: "Play more 'L' No. 4, No. 6 and No. 12 tactics!"

The Blazers realized they couldn't give all their chances to Drexler and needed to rely on their true offensive core, Jim Paxson, to create chances.

Also named Paxson, Paxson of the Trail Blazers is not a pure shooter like Paxson of the Celtics.

Jim Paxson is a rare white guard with a tough style who can shoot suddenly and shoot. In the four seasons since his sophomore year, his average shooting percentage is 51.4%. In three seasons, he averaged 20 points per game, which is the best in the history of the Trail Blazers.

The first Mr. Ten Thousand, Ramsay’s confidant.

It’s no wonder that the Trail Blazers are not interested in Jordan and want to draft a forward at all costs. Paxson is on the rise and Drexler is rapidly transforming into a swingman. They do not lack this type of player.

players.

However, Paxson's offense ran into trouble.

His breakthrough was blocked by Laimbeer's defense, and John Long pounced from behind and stole his ball.

The Celtics made a wonderful counterattack and narrowed the point difference to 15 points.

A few minutes later, the pressing defense strangled the Blazers' offense.

On the offensive end, John Paxson failed in his first three-point attempt.

However, with Sampson and Bird playing offensive rebounds like a game, both of them were a little less touchy in their tip-ins.

When Bird grabbed the third offensive rebound, the shooting space was already blocked by his dazzling arms. The only thing he could do was pass the ball to Paxson on the outside.

Paxson received Bird's pass and there was no one six meters in front of him. He adjusted well and used the most comfortable posture to shoot.

"Whoosh!"

This was the shot that brought the Blazers to their knees.

Ramsey watched the game helplessly. If they eventually lost to the Celtics' personal ability, he had nothing to say. However, in this game, the greatest personal ability displayed by the Celtics was Burmese.

Germany's ravage on Drexler.

And, just now this scene of consecutive offensive rebounds.

Other than that, there really aren't a few scenes that can be considered personal abilities.

If the Blazers want to play tactics, they will follow suit and it's not complicated.

The Trail Blazers pursue the highest effective field goal percentage, and their defensive intensity is not very strong. The Celtics' defensive intensity is also not very strong. They have a novel offensive system as support, a strong book lineup as an auxiliary, and the stars are shining like a car.

operates normally.

For Ramsay, they should lose and Louis should win. The question is how to lose and how to win.

Tonight, Louis won beautifully, not forcefully at all.

Ramsey didn't like this result because Celtic may have only played 60% of their strength.
