The rest is just noise

Celtic continue to move forward.

After defeating the Sonics, they won 51 games and then headed to Los Angeles for a second game with the Lakers.

As before, CBS broadcast the game live across the United States, but the publicity for the second contest between the two sides was not as strong as the last time.

Those who are interested will come to see it, and those who are not interested will not come no matter how much publicity is given.

Unless the showdown between Bird and Magic becomes a social event.

The league and related media have been working hard in this direction.

This is not the first time for Louis to come to the Forum Arena. He used to be an assistant coach. Now as the head coach, leading the team into it feels very different.

The boos flying all over the sky went straight to his eardrums, and he understood that Lakers fans remembered everything, including how the Lakers of Elgin Baylor and Jerry West were slaughtered by the Celtics twenty years ago.

, they all remember.

That Lakers team made it to the playoffs eight times and failed seven times.

They lost to the Celtics five times and the Knicks twice.

Many celebrities can be seen at the competition site.

There are Jack Nicholson, an absolute diehard fan of the Lakers, and Debra Winger (Debra Winger). The two of them sit very close to each other. Last year, they also starred together in a high-grossing movie called "Mother and Daughter"

If the movie had not encountered the solitary "Star Wars", it would not have had any chance of stabilizing its annual ranking.

There are also Eddie Murphy, the actor Louis loves very much, and Jamie Lee Curtis, who was sexually enlightened in her previous life. Her pole dance in "True Lies" is definitely a timeless classic.

At this time, it was still 10 years before she starred in that work. She looked particularly young and pink, not so much like Xie Na.

These are all the celebrities that Louis can recognize at a glance, but there are even more celebrities who cannot be recognized.

This kind of celebrity effect and specifications cannot be matched by Boston Garden. Jerry Buss used ShowTime to promote the Lakers, making celebrities feel that it is something to be proud of watching the game from the front row of the forum.

Bass's strategy was a great success, but unfortunately, this kind of success was never taken seriously within the Celtics.

Celtic reject the spirit of entertainment.

When Louis came to midfield, Murphy jumped up and shouted: "Death to Celtic!"

Pat Riley beamed: "We can't let our celebrity fans down."

While shaking hands with Riley, Louis looked back at Murphy, "Eddie, you're a New Yorker but you're cheering for the Lakers here, are you sorry?"

Murphy said confidently: "I know what I'm doing! My days in Los Angeles throughout the year are ten times longer than those in New York. Who do you think I should cheer for? Besides, is the New York team considered an NBA team? They entered the season.

It's going to be really hot in the postgame, how can the Lakers be so good?"

It was the first time that Louis saw such a confident winning honey.

"Yes! Yes! Beat the Celtics!" Not far away from Murphy, a beauty who was far better than Curtis shouted, waving her fist.

Although Louis believes that Lorraine is the most beautiful woman in the world, the young woman cheering for the Lakers at this time, although not as beautiful as Lorraine, has a smile that is exposed like a magician. It is very sweet and makes people feel good for her unconsciously.

.

"I originally thought that it would be over if I won the game." Louis ignored Riley, especially because he was unhappy that the beauty was on the opposite side of him, "Because of you, I will never give up until I win the game by more than 15 points today!

"

"Impossible!" She seemed not to know that the Lakers lost by almost 20 points last time in Boston. "My Lake is invincible in the world!"

"That's right!" Murphy didn't seem to know how many points the Lakers lost to the Celtics on the road.

He said arrogantly: "Larry Bird is just an overrated white man. He is far worse than No-Maj!"

"Yes, Larry is overrated!" the beauty shouted again.

Louis asked inexplicably: "You are also a white man. Even if you support the Lakers, you shouldn't deny Larry, right? He is the great hope of white people."

When Louis said she was white, her eyes were so angry: "Who is white? You are white, you look white from top to bottom!"

"I'll go," Louis said with a smile, "Although you are very beautiful, you are not indiscriminate, have limited judgment, and have bad eyesight. You are naturally beautiful, and your fair skin is beautiful because of your parents' genes, but no matter what my skin is,

You are so white, you are obviously Asian, everyone can see this."

"You are white!"

Louis knew that she was deliberately messing with her mentality, so he laughed on the spot and ignored her.

"Wait!" Riley called Louis.

Louis turned back inexplicably.

"Coach Lu, out of respect for your opponent, you should at least shake my hand." Riley stretched out his hand as if he had obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Louis came back to him sheepishly, held his hand and said, "I didn't mean it."

"I understand you, every visiting team coach who comes to the Forum will be dazzled." Riley said proudly, "Except for the Forum and the Garden (Madison Garden) more than ten years ago, you can't see it in other arenas.

So many celebrity fans.”

Louis smiled and said: "If I were you, I might not be so happy, because if you lose and lose ugly, it will definitely leave a bad impression in the hearts of these people."

"Don't worry, Coach Lu." Riley said calmly and confidently, "I have prepared a lot of plans for you!"

At this time, the magician completed a tomahawk dunk during the warm-up that Bird would never be able to do in his next life, and the audience was delighted.

Wilkins followed up with a huge dunk with folded hands, which again made people on the forum goosebumps.

The beautiful fan once again challenged Louis: "Just wait and lose!"

Louis waved to her with a smile and said nothing more.

He carefully reviewed the other person's appearance, and it seemed that she was indeed not completely white. If she were an authentic white person, she would be a bit whiter, but her look was obviously a bit brown.

Does this mean that she may be a mixed bag?

According to the One Drop of Blood principle, she should be black.

If Louis' guess was correct, it's no wonder she reacted so badly when she heard Louis say she was white.

White people do not allow the slightest impurity in their blood. As long as they are mixed, they are not white. Black people are the opposite. As long as there is a drop of black blood in their blood, they are all black.

Louis was too lazy to deal with this idea, the game was about to start.

Although the opponent was the Lakers, Louis still continued to play with the same strategy as in the previous game, without any other changes.

Because the Lakers are bound to face each other in the finals, now, if you can, hide as much as you can. Instead, he is curious about what exactly is the plan that Riley mentioned.

As a result, when Riley's basket-case plan was initially presented to Louis, he and the rest of the coaching staff were confused.

In the first possession of the Celtics, when the ball was passed to Bird on the outside, the Lakers' defense retreated shockingly.

"what's the situation?"

Louis muttered.

Bird has always been the opponent that opponents focus on, but the Lakers actually did the opposite. They left Bird empty on the outside!

This is amazing for Louis, K.C. Jones, Tomjanovich and Cowens.

Since the opponent allowed him to shoot, Bird was naturally rude and raised his hand to throw a three-pointer. He wanted to teach the Lakers a lesson, but his hand slipped and he missed the shot.

"Hillbilly, I gave you a chance but you didn't use it!" Louis shouted angrily.

Bird had become accustomed to ignoring Louis' voice, and he was angry.

For a player like him, the harder his opponent defends him, the happier he is. Suddenly the Lakers don't guard his three-pointer. This is simply an insult to him.

The hard-hit three-pointer was turned into a counterattack by the Lakers.

Magic seemed to want to avenge the last time in the garden, so he rushed forward and dunked.

In the last round, Louis was still not sure whether the Lakers were really going to release Bird's three-pointer, but in the next round, he was basically sure.

The Lakers really want to give up Bird's three-pointer.

It seems to be seeking death, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem unreasonable.

Under Louis' instruction, Bird shot at least five three-pointers per game and hit 1.8. Compared to his two-pointers, his three-point shooting rate was not that high. Moreover, five three-pointers per game was already a league high.

The number one shot attempt is not enough to cause a qualitative change, that is, he cannot use the existing three-point shot number to turn his data into a magic ball.

The concept that a 33.5% three-point rate is better than a 50% two-point rate doesn't hold true given his output.

Therefore, Riley chose to let go of his three-pointers, betting that he would not be able to maintain efficiency after his production increased.

Then, Bird's second three-pointer struck again.

At this moment, Bird became angry and made a tactical foul on Magic, who was about to fight back again.

Louis laughed.

"Larry, don't shoot if you can't make the shot. Everyone has a bad shot sometimes, even you." Louis has always been able to use the aggressive method.

After hearing his words, Bird, who had already decided not to shoot anymore, turned around and angrily said: "Why didn't they shoot when they gave me a chance? Do you think I will keep missing shots?"

"You've already conceded two goals in a row."

"The next goal must be scored!"

Louis wasn't sure whether Bird's next shot would go in.

He only saw the Lakers losing ground. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who had gone crazy at the Garden not long ago, had reconciled with his teammates, turned around and used a skyhook to score again.

The Lakers got off to a 4-0 start.
