The rest is just noise

K.C Jones slowly discovered that Louis was not simply venting his emotions when dealing with referees.

He stared at the referee like a wild animal, so the assistant referee, who started the game wanting the Celtics to have a good life tonight, became cautious.

He no longer blows the whistle at will, which has helped the Knicks' performance.

The intensity of the Knicks' game made the game look like a game between old enemies. The physical confrontation surprised the Celtics.

This team, which is least good at pressing on the defensive end, finally encountered a team that caught them pressuring them.

However, excessive pressure can also be problematic.

Bird had an idea, intercepted the Knicks' pass, and deliberately controlled the speed. In the frontcourt, he slowed down while his opponent accelerated, and the two inevitably collided like a wrecked car.

However, Bird had enough touch to hit the shot after experiencing a serious collision.

Tony Campbell made a white-collar foul, and his defense could not match Bird's in any way.

Bird was not satisfied with having broken Campbell's defense. He looked at Louis' position and said arrogantly: "Lu, you'd better find someone else to guard me. This bastard can't do it at all."

If Campbell was originally in awe of Bird, from this moment on he was filled with hatred.

"Tony, if you can't get down, you make your own decision." Louis liked Gonghuo very much, "If I were you, I wouldn't let him go!"

Campbell yelled: "I'm going to fight that damn white guy to the end!"

"Wrong, it's not a damn white man. What you said is that the attack range is too large. Don't forget that John is also a white man. He is a good white man, and Larry is a bad white man." Louis continued to be angry, "You should say, I want to

Fight that damn white guy to the end!"

In the end, Campbell actually repeated what Louis said.

"Huh, interesting." Louis discovered a glimmer of Campbell's character.

Bird made the extra free throw.

7 to 2

The Celtics still have the absolute upper hand.

Louis was not in a hurry. The recoil from the confrontation was huge. To withstand the backlash of the recoil was much more difficult than firing with a gun in a gunfight game.

"Throat!" Louis signaled Stockton to calm down and made a tactical gesture.

When Stockton saw it, he directly followed Louis' instructions and played the designated tactics.

The Celtics' amazing effective field goal percentage is due to the outstanding individual abilities of the players and the system built by Louis that no one can solve. But in essence, it is because the players are strong enough.

The Knicks' effective field goal percentage ranks among the best, which is purely a victory for the coaching staff.

Because the Knicks are mainly composed of first- and second-year players, players of this age group are not stable even if they are talented, not to mention they only have lottery picks Ewing, Stockton, Ellis, and Kyle.

, not really a gift.

The magic of the N.UCLA system is about to be revealed in the garden.

Stockton passed the ball to Ellis, leaving the Celtics confused.

Ewing quickly ran up to give him a pick-and-roll. In an instant, both Sampson and John Long concluded that Ellis was going to use Ewing's pick-and-roll to shoot a three-pointer.

This is a reasonable guess. As the player who averages the most three-pointers per game, Ellis' shooting threat from the outside deserves the Celtics' attention.

You Yin actually came up to block Lang.

Sampson decisively changed defense and rushed directly in front of Ellis, but did not notice that Ewing had turned around and ran towards the inside.

The pull inside and the space gravity of the sharpshooter allowed the Knicks to create an open side. The perfect Empty Side strategy was completed after Ewing caught the ball in the air and dunked.

4 to 7

"Beautiful, there is nothing wrong with the Knicks' tactical offense just now, it was so smooth!"

"This is the N.UCLA strategy they've been preaching."

The Knicks scored and Thomas' three-pointer was released in the backcourt.

Thomas didn't take the Knicks seriously and shot a three-pointer to test his touch.

The Knicks wanted him to shoot, but he didn't.

In an invincible team, Thomas has no need to improve his long-range shooting. He is always in a state where he can shoot three-pointers.

It is this casual attitude that gives the Celtics a weakness that is not a weakness when attacking.

Thomas missed a three-pointer, Oakley grabbed the rebound and passed it to Stockton.

The Celtics returned to defense very quickly, but Louis made that gesture again.

The difference from before is that this time it is in the process of counterattack.

Stockton had no speed advantage and couldn't take advantage of the chaos to counterattack, so he controlled his speed.

At the top of the arc, Ewing followed up and made a drag screen. Stockton broke through with the ball and passed it back to Ewing.

Ewing took the ball and handed it to Ellis on the spot. This awesome shooter once again took away the attention of the Celtics. Ewing made another air cut.

This time the Empty Side tactics are different from the previous process, but the mode and core concepts are fixed. They all involve the inside teaming up with the shooters to create airside cuts into the opponent's frontline.

The Celtics, who cared too much about Ellis, let Ewing go again.

All Ellis had to do was throw the ball casually into the air.

Ewing jumped up, caught the pass, and scored with a dunk.

6 to 7

"Patrick scored 6 points. The Celtics must think carefully about how to limit the Knicks' routine!"

The Celtics didn't panic at all. They liked to pile people in the paint and let Thomas and Bird cooperate.

Campbell was provoked by Bird before, but now the confrontation was all foul play.

I don’t know if it was because Louis was standing on the sidelines, but the referee who could blow the whistle didn’t blow it, so Campbell’s actions intensified.

The most incomprehensible thing is that he didn't call the actions that should be called. Bird caught the ball and shot, and Campbell nodded his wrist, but he called it.

What does it mean? A foul committed by a fighter is the referee’s final line?

Campbell's wrist shot had little impact on Bird, and the ball shot through the net smoothly.

And one

Bird turned to look at Louis, spread his hands left and right, and his attitude was extremely contemptuous: Are you going to send this guy to deal with me?

"Gerard, please replace Tony."

At this moment, Louis can no longer take care of Campbell's self-esteem. He couldn't guard Bird and committed two fouls. It was time to make a substitution.

Campbell walked down frustrated, apparently knocked unconscious by Bird.

When he sat off the court, he slammed the towel thrown by his teammate to the ground and stamped on it: "That white scumbag tells me how to attack every time! And I fail to defend myself every time!"

"It's not your fault." Louis comforted loudly.

You really can't blame him, Bird's skill is not a directional skill, but is activated randomly.

Extra penalty, Bird also scored.

10 to 6

Sampson showed his amazing defensive range next.

Without him, the Celtics' defense would be papery. He is the only player in the Green Army's starting lineup with positive defensive attributes. Bird, who was continuously selected as the second defense in the past few years, has obviously slacked off a lot now.

I don’t have the energy I had in the past few years of my career.

Sampson filled in everywhere by himself, killing all the Knicks' opportunities.

Stockton made a wonderful move and created Oakley's opportunity solely due to his personal ability.

Oakley held the ball and went to the basket. Just as he was about to attack, Laimbeer appeared. He could not stop the former, so he resorted to extraordinary means and used his left elbow to hit Oakley's chest, causing him to fall from the air to the ground.

“Beep beep beep!!!”

Although the referee's whistle sounded quickly, Oakley's first reaction when he got up was to punch Laimbeer.

A scuffle broke out between the two sides. Ewing, who was trying to break up the fight, got punched by someone unknown and actually pushed Sampson away.

“@#%@#……”

Louis watched the whole show, stopped the eager players off the court, and warned them: "Don't cause trouble for me if you come on the court later, but don't be afraid of trouble. If they want to fight, fight with them, but don't look for trouble. Every one of you

I need everyone, and if anyone is sent out by the referee, it will affect our winning rate against the Celtics!"

These words were pleasant to hear, and the big fight on the field was calmed down by the professional efforts of two well-trained referees.

As a result, those involved in the fight will not be held accountable, and Ranbir will end the fight with a simple foul.

Before the 1990s, the league's tolerance for fighting was incredibly high. Some referees who were overly cautious would eject the troublemakers. If they met a good guy like Nunez, he would just give the culprit a foul as a warning, and then everyone would

On the surface, everything is fine and we continue to play the game.

Before flagrant fouls were introduced and the league's attitude toward fighting changed, thugs and enforcers were still the roles every team needed.

Tonight, the Celtics' executioners and the Knicks' thugs got together.

Oakley definitely hit Laimbeer, otherwise, the Celtics would not have replaced Laimbeer and asked the team doctor to carefully examine it.

The conflict between the two sides is becoming more and more intense, and the anger is absolutely uncontrollable.

This is good.

This is what Louis has been waiting for.

The recoil of confrontation is here, and its recoil is not only a decrease in offensive feel, but also an increase in players' emotions.

After the mood rises, the probability of occurrence of various extreme events will increase.

Whoever can adapt to this rhythm, whoever can find a normal heart to play after the conflict, will be able to master the rhythm of the game during this period.
