The Rest, Only Noise

Chris Jackson keeps the Blazers on their toes.

The pain of the fifth scene has not gone away.

It was an accident, if it wasn't for CJ's magic weapon, who would win and who would lose would still have to be said.

Louis, who had already decided to shorten the rotation, also let CJ play, and the intention is not to be said.

Porter was injured and replaced by Bruce Edwards.

But Edwards was playing against Wilson, and Jordan was defending CJ.

The Blazers' defense against CJ has only one purpose.

Don't give him any comfortable shooting opportunities other than pull-ups against the defense.

This defensive strangulation around CJ began after Porter came off the court.

Louie saw that no matter how many screens CJ called, the Blazers defenders followed. To limit him, the Blazers took advantage of the wing's athleticism to the limit.

This is a small-ball era-level switching, and only a small-ball lineup can switch defenses so quickly.

At the same time, Jordan and Barkley each made efforts for the team.

Barkley dominated the offense with the ball, and Jordan supplemented with mid-range jumpers, which was the secret to their last win.

Only when the inside and outside double lines bloom, can we say that the Knicks' defense has been blown up.

In the second quarter, the Blazers' "Fat Boy" and "Mickey", like the previous six games, played an unparalleled performance.

Barkley is one against three, and even if there is a pinch, he can still force a score.

That kind of ball makes no sense at all. Louie saw Ewing's defensive position and knew that he had done his best. It was really overbearing when Barkley was attacking.

Barkley doesn't dodge the opposing defender at all, no matter how many are ahead, he just takes the ball to force the past.

If you don't enter, you will grab the rebound, as if you don't know that your height is not conducive to grabbing the rebound.

The weird thing is, Barkley always grabs the offensive rebound.

Barkley's rebounding prediction is generally not as good as Rodman's, but he knows his offense like the back of his hand. He knows which shots can and cannot be scored. So every time he takes a shot and doesn't feel like he's going in, he's getting ready for an offensive rebound.

This is a technical feature, but what really makes his offensive logic of relying on strong play without grabbing the board and hitting the board rationally, is that his body can forcefully jump up and grab the rebound with a few people crowded. explosive force.

Isn't this O'Neal who is 20 cm shorter?

When the Blazers chased the score to 26-30, Louie called a timeout and sent Ewing to rest. Even if he insisted on playing, his physical strength could not keep up.

Louie called out veteran McHale at the end of the bench.

"Kevin, I need your offense!" Louie said, "Also, we also need to use your experience to set up defensive traps!"

McHale is no longer the top low-post attacker in history due to aging, injuries, and a long-term vegetarian diet, but his offensive comprehensiveness, defensive footwork, and when he has physical strength, he can still be trusted.

Back from the suspension, the Knicks only scored 6 points in the past half of the game. The Blazers relied on double C inside and outside, various illogical overbearing attacks, and chased the score to 4 points.

After this period, Riley replaced Barkley to rest, and he was replaced by Anthony Mason, which means that the Blazers should temporarily put the offensive burden on Jordan alone.

Jordan's offense is absolutely credible, but, as a ball-handling core on the perimeter, his current technical characteristics are not as difficult to target as Barkley as long as he has a touch.

"Benj!"

Louie gestured to Wilson.

The meaning of his gestures is that "law", "trap" and "pocket array" are launched against Jordan together.

This is an honor for Michael Jordan, better than Tragic, Sampson, Bird, and even his teammate Barkley, who have not been taken seriously by Louie.

How could Louie ignore Jordan?

This guy averaged 40 points per game against five of their All-Defensive team members in the Finals. If he didn't face him, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?

Whether as a contemporary or a traveler from the future, Louis will always limit Jordan to the maximum with awe.

Whatever means are used, there is one standard for everything: extreme.

Based on what Louis knew about Jordan in his previous life, the tragedies of Malone, Miller, Barkley, Drexler, and others all taught Louis a truth: if you don't let Danzi know what is extreme, Danzi will punish you. extreme live.

Jordan stood on the outside line and was defended by Wilson alone.

But Wilson didn't take a close defense against him, but let him go for more than half a meter, with the intention of taking the initiative to let him take a three-pointer.

This is after the Knicks' coaching staff reviewed the past six games and found that Jordan's perimeter feel was unstable, often fluctuating, and almost never was accurate throughout the game.

Like Game 6, his 3-pointers were on a roller coaster in the first and second half.

Today, he has not even attempted a three-pointer.

Riley's football program had a profound impact on Jordan, the biggest of which was the loss of the 3-pointer that he had worked so hard for for several seasons.

While the feel was gone, the arduous task of the season gave Jordan little time to recover his muscle memory.

In the game against the Knicks, his three-pointers were like touching gold. There is something, and nothing is nothing, and he can't even control it himself.

Jordan wasn't afraid to shoot 3-pointers, but the position Wilson gave him wasn't big enough.

This space is only enough to shoot three-pointers, but with Wilson's physical condition, he can react in time to affect his shot.

After weighing, Jordan chose to be strong.

The more than half a meter of space gave Wilson the leeway to follow up slowly. He stuck to Jordan and forced him to go to the right flank.

Dick Harter, Pat Riley's assistant, looked at the Knicks defense with seriousness.

When Jordan stepped into the Knicks' trap, the power of "law" made the flying man break his wings on the spot. He was double-teamed by the toughest team, and he was as brave as him, unable to keep the ball well.

Fumbles, turnovers, the Knicks' rotation offense.

"Pat, it's a serial," Hart said.

Riley looked at him, "What do you mean?"

"Benjamin didn't give Michael enough space to complete a consistent shot. His intention was to let Michael drive from the right. Dennis Rodman's help took Michael's breakthrough line, Sean Kemp's Flanking is like an alarm clock that rings on time and appears next to Michael in an instant...I've been in professional basketball for more than 40 years, but I've never seen this kind of defense."

Dick Hart's words sent a chill down Riley's back.

They originally built the team by imitating the Knicks, watching and learning, and even did not forget to learn from the Knicks in the finals. As a result, they still did not learn thoroughly.

The defense, which shocked Hart, fascinated Riley.

The Blazers' defense is still in the most primitive aggressive single defense and help-defense pressure plus brutal hand-to-hand combat. Not only the Blazers, but all teams that want to imitate the Knicks do this.

Even the Knicks did that in 1988.

However, after only a few years, the Knicks have been upgraded from the original reckless to "ingenious reckless". The Knicks under Louis are the first team in the history of professional basketball to be abandoned in the initial stage of the matchup. Bait, let the prey bite the hook, then force him to a certain position through defense, and then "pull the lead" to make the trap appear.

In record-breaking ratings, tens of millions have witnessed the defensive transformation of professional basketball.

Countless basketball coaches who watched this game would seriously think about defense.

It was the Knicks' most iconic defense in the Finals, and the defensive philosophy developed by Lewis in the decades that followed would influence generations of coaches.

At that time, Jordan, after making a mistake, realized that he could no longer follow the Knicks defense.

He needs to know how to brake.

Going beyond the three-point line again, this time, Wilson put him one meter away: "You don't dare to shoot again, do you?"

Wilson's provocation has undoubtedly touched Jordan's inverse scale, and the soaring anger of the flying man is furious.

Although Wilson gave him enough space to shoot, driven by anger, the already unstable outside shot became more and more unstable.

"boom!"

Jordan strikes a three-pointer!

Rodman grabbed the defensive rebound and threw it to Wilson.

The moment Wilson got the ball, he saw CJ on the fast break, and in the blink of an eye, the ball flew out of his hand.

Outside the three-point line in the frontcourt, CJ adjusted his pace and played for most of the quarter. This turned out to be the first shot he got.

CJ, who received the ball, took a dribble and made a move to catch the ball and shoot from the back of Bruce Edwards, who was chasing after him.

"What a fake!" Louie yelled.

However, CJ is more greedy than he imagined, he will not be satisfied with swinging his opponent away and then shooting a three-pointer, he wants to kill.

CJ spiritually bumped into Edwards' body, deflecting his jump.

Even the most lenient referee has zero tolerance for this unmistakable violation of the cylinder.

The whistle sounded, and Chris Jackson slanted his body up into the air, and shot a three-pointer straight up in the manner of a cowboy drawing his gun.

Basketball hollow pocket!

"OMG!" Bob Costas yelled, "CJ managed to score four points in this frantic game! How can he be so good! Look! The whole MSG is going crazy for him!"
