The rest is just noise
Chapter 418 Ewing's Cold Joke (3/158)
In the 11th game of his career, Benjamin Wilson played the masterpiece of his rookie season.
Facing the Boston Celtics, he scored 8 points in the first half and then like a tornado in the second half, he scored 42 of the Knicks' 62 points.
50 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists in a single game!
He made Dale Ellis sit on the bench for a long time, relying on his one-on-one and sneaky movement, as well as the fact that no one in the Celtics could match his matchup advantage, and took advantage of his hot touch.
took the game by storm.
131 to 111
No one expected this game to turn out like this. The Knicks defeated the Celtics with a 20-point advantage, handing the league's hegemon its fourth defeat of the season.
"Those who are waiting to see the Celtics revenge against the Knicks may be disappointed."
"There's no revenge, just a big win for the Knicks."
"Benjamin Wilson, he made everyone remember his name with one game."
Dick Stockton gave the closing remarks for the game.
Wilson was stopped by CBS reporters on the scene and could not return directly to the locker room.
He said modestly: "I'm not perfect yet. This may be the best game I played in my rookie season, but I hope we can have a better season. So I still have a long way to go.
Go, that's the best thing about it, personally there's a lot of room for improvement on all levels."
Press and public relations style official tone.
If it were Ewing, Louis is sure he would have said something like, "When I'm in the zone, I'm unstoppable," which is powerful and domineering and easy to put into words.
Wilson was rushed for an interview, while Louis had to fulfill the official obligation of the head coach to accept an on-site interview at the end of each half.
This may be one of the dumbest rules in the NBA.
Do any fans care what the head coach says?
Since he had to be interviewed, Louis had to make it meaningful.
While everyone was cheering for Wilson, he reminded reporters: "Benj's 50 points are of course very outstanding, but in addition to this, you also missed the screen assists of Patrick and Oak."
"Screen assist?"
"Yes, screen assists." Louis explained the meaning of the noun. "It is the number of times you help your teammates score through screens. It is called screen assists in our team. Patrick had 12 screen assists tonight, and Oak had 8. You
Guess what the number of assists our team got tonight?”
"We had 40 assists tonight, but 31 of them came off screen assists."
"Without those screens, these passes couldn't be converted into points." Louis laughed, "The score might be the other way around."
It was a special day when Louis came up with the concept of screen assists.
The Knicks will release their screen assist data at a later date.
If possible, Louis will promote the advanced statistic of screen assists to become a basic statistic.
For the Knicks' big men, this is a statistic that proves their worth.
Back in the locker room, Wilson thanked every teammate for their help.
When he walked up to Ewing, before he could say anything, he heard the other person say: "You played well, no need to thank me."
"You should still thank me," Louis said afterward.
Wilson turned around, wanting to express his gratitude to Louis.
Louis said with a strange expression: "Benj, Patrick has a gift for you."
"What?"
Wilson looked back at Ewing and was greeted by a baptism of cold water.
"Holyfuck!"
"Where are you now? Thank you for this and that. I don't know why you thought you won the MVP." Oakley laughed.
Wilson cursed a dozen curse words, but none of them had a clear direction.
Seeing him trembling there, Louis was sure that he had calmed down.
"Change your clothes and join me at the press conference." Louis said.
That night, when Ewing tried to upset the media, Louis stepped on him.
So he was forced to change the words "Benj's 50 points are good, but we have to move on" to "He should thank me. I worked so hard to screen so that he had so many mismatched attack opportunities."
He was trying to make a joke, but it didn't work well.
But this joke was just like when Kawhi Leonard scored his first triple-double with the Clippers, Rivers said a few words of chicken soup, and then asked Leonard to give an acceptance speech.
Leonard said in a joking mood: "If you useless snacks were more accurate, I would have got a triple-double a long time ago."
The embarrassment of that moment was comparable to his words at the first press conference in Toronto: "I'm an interesting person... (more than ten seconds later)... Aha. Aha. Aha. Aha."
.." The only difference is that no one laughed at his cold jokes in the locker room, which instead made the atmosphere very cold, while his accident-level press conference in Toronto has 9 million views on YouTube⑴
, brought joy to countless people.
Ewing's joke today was too stiff.
He definitely didn't mean it, he just needs more practice than Iverson.
Although Louis was not satisfied with his performance, it was a good start.
If you are determined, don’t be afraid of being late.
He would rather see an Ewing who is always telling uncomfortable jokes than sitting in the media interview room like a zombie all day long in front of a group of humans who he cannot eat.
He asked him calmly: "Mr. You, how are you feeling today?"
At the end of today's press conference, Louis heard that the brothers in Boston were very dissatisfied with the loss.
Isiah Thomas criticized his teammates: "New Yorkers keep punching us in the face, but we don't react! We have to fight back like men! We can't do this again next time!"
Then, Louis and Ewing and Wilson met them in the aisle.
"Coach, it won't be so easy next time." Sampson said seriously.
"If Larry can come back in the next game, it will definitely be harder to beat you than tonight." Louis said with a smile.
"No," Thomas said coldly, "you have no chance."
"Don't be so sure, Isiah." Louis asked Wilson to stand next to him, "Just like I can't believe this young man can easily score 50 points on your defense. It sounds like
It’s a myth, but it happened.”
Once you win the game, everything you say is correct.
"What you should be thinking about now is how to limit Benj in the next game."
Louie is like a crazy Wilson fan who keeps raving.
"If the defense is this bad next time, he will score 60 points."
Thomas angrily said: "If he can score 60 points, I will retire!"
"Hahahaha~~~" Louis laughed heartily and left with his people.
Wilson's self-confidence was not as high as Louis': "Coach, 60 points?"
"Why, don't you have confidence in yourself?"
"It's not that... if I score that many points, there will be a lot of people on our team who won't have a chance to take the shot."
Wilson already seems to know what his role is.
On the milestone night of his rookie season, he could already look at himself calmly.
"I can't win Boston by myself," he said.
"That's right, you can't win alone." Louis looked at Ewing and said, "Patrick can't win alone. But if all of us unite, we can win."
Louis led them back to the dressing room, it was an outstanding victory and he had nothing to say.
"You can go and play as much as you want. As long as you show up at the training ground on time tomorrow afternoon, I don't care how you play."
"Disband!"
Among the uniform cheers, only one person seemed unhappy.
Dale Ellis had little performance in the second half as Benj scored 42 points at the 2 position.
He doesn't even have much playing time, let alone score?
He has always been taciturn and doesn't like to express himself, and he was also quiet at this time.
He was the last one to get up and leave, preparing to find a place to get drunk.
⑴Kevin Hart also has a reaction video about Leonard’s “uh ha ha ha” video, and that video has 13 million views.
