The Rest, Only Noise
Chapter 918: selfless heart
The Knicks were united, and the game ushered in a turning point.
The Hornets went from leading to trailing in just one game.
In the fourth quarter, the silent assassin Dale Ellis made consecutive three-pointers.
It was like he was possessed by some indescribable evil spirit, how to cast and how to enter.
Louie thinks of how he faced Bird in the 1988 Eastern Conference finals.
It's rare to see this kind of unstoppable scoring momentum, but as long as it comes, something magical happens.
It's a pity that Ellis' teammates are too young, they don't know how rare such a shooter is, and they don't know that passing the ball to Ellis is their only chance to win the game.
Young people are always like this, thinking that the world is in their hands.
In the first three minutes of the fourth quarter, Ellis hit four consecutive three-pointers.
With that momentum, Louie wouldn't be surprised if he hits 10 3-pointers in a single quarter.
But suddenly, Ellis' teammates stopped passing the ball. They thought Ellis had done enough -- Ellis' 3-point rain helped the Hornets close to two points -- and wanted to take the rest of the opportunity.
The young man rightly put Ellis aside.
Auntie wants to play singles, and Leth wants to shoot threes...
They all want something.
Head coach Alan Bristow called a timeout to get them to pass the ball to Ellis.
The tactics are very simple. Big Mom only needs to come to the high post to do an off-ball screen for Ellis. It doesn't need to be of high quality, just hang people up a little.
Just like this, the aunt can do 10 points but only contribute 1 point.
Since Bennett's "walking pick-and-roll gif", Louie hasn't seen an NBA player do such a sloppy pick-and-roll in a long time.
Is this a pick-and-roll? This is obviously to walk over and tell Ellis, "Don't let Mom want to shoot, stand at the bottom corner to make room for the young man."
Now Louie knows why Thomas has only been around for one season before he realizes it's better to start from scratch than to start from scratch.
The stupefied youths like the Hornets have used practical actions to prove what is called Shuzi's insufficiency and conspiracy.
Ellis gave up running and let the young perform.
Bristow lost control of them.
Although it has not yet reached the stage of "who the **** are you", the trend of adoptive sons becoming fathers is already clear.
In this way, Ellis did not get another shot until the end of the game.
Bristol's indulgence of young people has had consequences.
The Hornets, who had the opportunity to defeat the Knicks, were finally led by young people and were beaten by the Knicks by 17 points.
Wasp fans eager to see the Youth Storm, only to see the Youth Sandstorm tonight.
"It's only 9 minutes from 2 points down to 17 points behind. What happened in the last nine minutes of this game?"
Dale Ellis walked up to Louie reluctantly and said bluntly that he missed playing in New York.
"Coach, I didn't have a good day in Charlotte," Ellis said.
Ellis's words made Louis's heart tighten.
Ellis, who made great contributions to the Knicks' first championship in the 1980s, was selected by the Hornets in the expansion draft.
The Knicks lost their best No. 2 spot for nothing.
The outside world couldn't understand it, but Louis knew exactly what he was doing.
Although Ellis is good, he has many uncontrollable off-court factors, and there is Miller, a great god, to fill the position, so there is no need to worry at all.
Although Ellis played on the bench in the Knicks' final season, this form was not sustainable. At that time, he was at the best stage of his career. For the long-term development of the team, it was common to be a bench for a year at the expense of compromise. It is not often that they give up their prime time for the team to identify as a substitute.
In addition, the Knicks still need to cultivate Miller and Hornacek. After Ellis left, his time was allocated to these two people.
It turns out that Ellis' departure has boosted Hornacek and Miller, both of whom were instrumental in the Knicks' reign
Ellis felt this way today, and Louis had nothing to say except to comfort him.
The truth is very realistic and cruel.
The Knicks don't need Dale Ellis at this stage.
After talking to Ellis, Louis walked to the sidelines.
NBC reporters naturally asked about Kemp's contract extension.
Louis had no plans to hide.
"Shaun wasn't sober enough on the court, so I told him to go back to the locker room to calm down."
The nbc reporter asked: "Is Sean's lack of clarity related to the failure of his contract renewal?"
"I don't know, maybe there is, maybe not."
Louie did not reveal too much information to reporters.
He went back to the locker room, glanced at Kemp, and wanted to scold him, but he never had the habit of scolding players at the end of the game.
The only time he "meeted" directly in the locker room at the end of a game was in the 1983 Eastern Conference semifinals.
He was the acting coach of the Celtics at the time, and although he led the team to two wins, they were defeated by the Bucks in Game 6.
For Liwei, Louis scolded the entire team severely.
That was the only time, after that, no matter how dissatisfied Louie was about the loss, it didn't break out in the locker room.
Same today.
"I want you to remember that we've never been where we are today because of someone's strength. In terms of strength, Patrick is not the league's No. 1 center, and Benj is not the league's No. 1 small forward - we're not the league's No. 1 in any position. One player. The Knicks were able to win five straight championships because we were invincible as a group. I cherish every night coaching you guys and I hope we can win more championships together. If anyone dares to sabotage The basis for our win, whoever it is, I'm going to take him out of this team."
"This is my first and only warning."
Louis looked at Camp like death.
Louie's tone was almost threatening, and no one dared to joke with him about this.
The locker room seemed to suddenly run out of oxygen, and it was difficult for everyone to breathe.
It wasn't until Louie walked out of the locker room that Ewing scolded Kemp.
"Are you **** out of your mind? Look what the **** you did tonight!"
Willis Reed said coldly, "I don't think he's stupid, he just doesn't have a brain!"
Reed joins in, forming a double with Ewing and slamming Kemp.
Kemp thought Louie's threat was terrifying enough, but he didn't expect the criticism from Ewing and Reed, which was even more terrifying.
The characteristics of these two people are that there is no room for speech, and they don't care about his face at all.
Wilson didn't join in.
Kemp is Ewing's man, and Ewing's leadership off the court is above him.
Ewing likes to pose a leader like this and teach others a lesson.
Times writer Dave Anderson once vividly commented: "The Knicks have two leaders, one off the court and one on the court."
Wilson is the man who leads the field.
Off-court matters, he consciously gave up to Ewing. It's not that he can't do it, it's that he genuinely sees Ewing as a team leader.
That's what leaders should do.
Wilson quietly left the locker room and caught up with Louie.
"benj? Is something wrong?" Louis asked.
Wilson said: "Shawn's contract renewal talks are going slowly, is it related to me?"
"It's inconvenient for me to tell you about this." Louis smiled.
Even if Louie doesn't say it, Wilson has his own sources.
His agent advised him to use this relationship with Louie to drive down Kemp's contract extension.
Wolfe's proposal was vehemently opposed by Wilson.
"Coach Lu will get it done." These were Wilson's original words at the time.
When Ewing renewed his contract last season, Wolff also strongly expressed his dissatisfaction. It was still Wilson who suppressed him and told him not to overreact.
Now Kemp's contract renewal has been delayed ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Wilson can guess what the reason is.
"Coach, the salary cap changes every year, and this year's maximum salary will be just a normal maximum salary in a year or two."
There is a light of selflessness about Wilson.
He is New York basketball's greatest treasure.
Because he puts the team first, he is able to accept many things that others cannot.
"Coach, don't affect the internal harmony for me, give Sean the price he wants, we have a longer-term goal and can't get stuck here."
If every player is as sensible as benj, Louie will be the happiest person in the world.
"You look more like Sean's agent than that **** named Dutt." Louie snorted softly, "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own measure."
It is because benj is so sensible that Louis wants to fight for him.
Before Wilson signed a third contract, no one but Ewing could earn more than him annually.
This is Louis' bottom line.
Benj can give up the so-called fame and fortune in order to take care of the overall situation, and Louis must also strive to the end for his attitude of focusing on the overall situation.
"Let's go, the reporter is waiting for me."
Louis didn't look back.
