The rest is just noise

Chapter 519: He is really special...

"Actually, this game has just begun."

During the timeout, Billy Cunningham remained on Detroit's side.

"Chuck Daly is a very professional head coach, and his professionalism cannot be compared with that of young people." Who the young people Daly refers to specifically does not need to be said.

Dick Stockton is still waiting to see what happens.

If Cunningham is right, he has no loss. If Cunningham continues to be wrong, won’t the program’s effectiveness be lost?

Different from Tom Heinsohn's mindless and protective style, Cunningham won the unanimous love of the audience because of his extremely professional basketball knowledge and friendly conversation performance, otherwise he would not be able to replace him in a short time.

Heinsohn.

What would the audience think if they suddenly discovered that their beloved "Super Billy" was a man who could become as brainless as Heinsohn under certain circumstances?

The effect of the program is here, isn’t it?

Another of Daley's assistants, Ron Rothstein, gave advice: "Although the Knicks' offense is very strong, the outcome of this game has just begun. We should let the most confident players take the lead.

Ball possession."

"The most certain player?" After hearing this, Daley's eyes naturally moved to Adrian Dantley, "Adrian."

Hearing the call from the head coach, Dantley raised his head indifferently.

"I need to use your offense to break the deadlock, Adrian." Dailey said.

Dantley said impatiently: "I have said it a long time ago, no matter how good our tactics are, you will eventually put the ball in my hands, because this is the most effective way."

A look of displeasure flashed across Daly's face. From the first day he coached the Pistons, he has focused on making himself the perfect head coach. One thing is for sure, he has won the respect and love of the vast majority of players.

, this is a great success for a coach.

Very few coaches can coach players and become their friends at the same time. If players regard you as a friend, how do you guide them? The boundaries of authority will be blurred, and more and more people will cross the boundaries.

Daley asked his players to respect him and listen to him.

However, Dantley was the only player he met who couldn't control himself and hated each other.

Daly was unhappy with Dantley's tone, but there was nothing he could do now.

After all, the coach's influence has its limits, and it is the players who decide the game.

Interestingly, opposite Daly, his counterpart Louie was also a man who tried to coach players and be friends with them.

Luigi did it when he was at Celtic.

Bird, Sampson, and Laimbeer not only recognized his coaching, but also regarded him as a friend.

When he came to the Knicks, Louis was unable to maintain this seemingly healthy relationship. Because the Celtics were the people he introduced when he was a scout, or witnessed them joining the team.

Some of them are the same age as Louis, and some are a few years older than Louis. When they joined the team, Louis was just an assistant coach, and he was marginalized because of the deterioration of the relationship between Louis and Bill Fitch. Therefore, Louis has long served as an insignificant person on the coaching staff.

Someone who gets along well with the players.

It is precisely through these layers of connections that Louis can establish that incredible relationship.

That relationship ended when Louis left Boston, and he wasn't able to do the same thing with the Knicks.

Bernard King hated him, Stockton respected him immensely, Dale Ellis regarded Louis as a benefactor, and those who followed...Ewing, Oakley, Wilson...only Ewing showed up to remind Louis of something.

Celtic time connection.

Because Ewing often made mistakes, he was caught by Louis every now and then.

So Ewing is not like Bird, he is a little afraid of Louis.

But over the past few years, Louis felt more and more that it was impossible to be friends with the players, coach them at the same time, and maintain the relationship for a long time.

Especially in this day and age, it's impossible.

Twenty years ago, Auerbach's generation took advantage of the era when the league was less professional and players lived worse than dogs and ate worse than pigs. He was able to build the team into a big family where everyone was a good friend.

And motivate them with winning bonuses when the playoffs come.

In this era when the per capita salary is at least US$100,000, it is impossible to pull this trick again.

So Louis no longer pursues the complicated relationship of friends, teachers and students.

If the players regard him as a friend, of course he is happy to accept it. If they don't like him and just play under him, he has no objection.

Louis looked at the movement on the piston side.

"Coach Daley's expression felt as if he was eating shit." Zhao Yuanzheng predicted like a god, "I guess he made a disgusting decision."

Tomjanovich laughed: "What decision could be more disgusting than switching the offense to Adrian Dantley?"

"Yes..." Louis laughed, "If we let Ewing play the main attack, it would be twice as disgusting."

Ewing, who was being sprayed while sitting, was about to stand up and argue with Louis, but he almost stood up.

Before standing up, he realized that he couldn't speak to Louis, so he pretended not to hear.

Kevin McHale grabbed the bird with his disgusted hand and said, "You can bear this. If it were me, I would definitely argue with the coach."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Ewing shouted in a low voice.

If the Pistons decide to let Dantley play the main offense, the Knicks really can't think of any good way to limit this guy.

While most scoring leaders have low shooting percentages, Dantley's shooting percentage is as unique as Isora Ao's peak period.

The wing scoring leader with a shooting percentage of 56% is just like *** who uses his childlike appearance as a selling point. In the entire history of the NBA, the only scoring leaders with a higher shooting percentage than him are Kareem Abdul-Jabbar during the Bucks and his first championship season.

O'Neal, but both of them are insiders.

It's normal for inside players to have a higher shooting percentage than wings or perimeter players, but both of them are only marginally higher (1% and 2%).

Dantley is not a kaleidoscope, he can't shoot three-pointers, and his ball-handling threat is above the league average but limited.

What he is good at is the low post and his special fake-action rhythm.

He's really a special offensive player.

This was demonstrated in the Pistons' first offense after the timeout.

The Knicks' pocket formation makes it difficult for Dantley to use his ghostly footwork in the low post, but he can still rely on shooting to reach the high post.

Louis asked Wilson to face him.

However, he didn't expect Wilson to be able to guard him.

Dantley catches the ball, Wilson keeps a certain distance to prevent breakthroughs, and half-leave him to shoot - if Dantley wants to shoot, he will definitely be interfered with.

However, Dantley raised the ball. Do you want to shoot?

No, don’t forget that I said before that his fake moves are really special, special, damn special. Once you see it, you’ll never forget it. It’s comparable to those weird supporting characters in Stephen Chow’s movies.

.

Dantley's fake movements have two characteristics: they are so slow that Louis wants to press fast forward, and they are so fake that they make Louis embarrassed for Wilson. Look at the child's expression, he is very confused, confused, and tangled, he must be thinking

"Does the person on the opposite side think I'm a fool? Are you trying to trick me with this fake move?" It was this slow and fake fake move that made it difficult to limit Dantley's offense.

Dantley would do four or five fake shooting moves in a row, but with each move, his ball would rise higher and higher.

After just a moment's hesitation, his ball was released.

It was in this situation that Wilson was struck.

The most painful thing is not being fooled by this level of fake moves, but not knowing how to guard against him. The most exquisite thing about Dantley's fake moves is that the moment before his shooting action is released, it is so painful.

People suspected it was a fake move.

too slow!

So damn slow! Much slower than Kyle Anderson, just deceiving Wilson and hitting a high shot.

4 to 9

"I don't want to admit it, but this guy is indeed a genius born for offense." Louis sighed.

The Knicks' offense didn't stop there.

The Pistons allowed Dantley to attack, which was considered to be the effect this card should have.

But the Pistons do this at a cost. No matter how good Dantley's offense is, the defense will be bad.

The defense was beaten badly by Dantley, so Wilson tried to find a way to regain face on the offensive end.

A few minutes passed, and the two sides had an offensive ratio of 9 to 8.

The Knicks scored 1 more point, 18 to 12.

If the fight continues like this, the result will not change in any way.

The effect of repeated use of Dantly is remarkable, but the side effects are also great.

Daly didn't think about relying on Dantley to win. This was mainly due to the Pistons' poor offensive performance in the opening game.

Relying on Dantley, the Pistons survived the decline in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Dailey still had to find a way to survive the transition period.

The transition period has always been a strong period for the Knicks, and their second lineup is as strong as the first lineup.

The second team led by Stockton, Miller, McHale, Oakley, and John Salley made their debut.

"The Knicks are... using three big men together?" Dick Stockton exclaimed, "McHale is going to play small forward?"
