The Rest, Only Noise

,

In the 1981-82 season, the Celtics led the league in three consecutive seasons.

However, Bird's data is not as bright as last season, barely hitting 20+10+4 assists, because the Celtics gave up the offensive system designed by Louis and changed to the mainstream of the old-fashioned high-post pick-and-roll + two-wing low-post play. positional attack.

While the Celtics are the only team in the league with a 60-win record, Louie is hard-pressed to be optimistic about their playoff performance.

The first round bye, the second round against the Washington Bullets, the hidden danger has appeared.

Bird, the core of the team, averaged only 15 points per game.

Although the team swept the Bullets 4-1, Bird couldn't play comfortably.

In the Eastern Conference finals, the Celtics once again met their old rival, the 76ers. They went through another tough semifinal round and eliminated the Bucks 4-2.

This year's Celtics were called "green monsters" by Sports Illustrated.

The 76ers' lineup has not changed from last year, but the Celtics have a super rookie like Isiah Thomas to greatly strengthen the lineup.

This trade-off, the Celtics should easily win and advance to the Finals to defend their title.

In Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals, Louis sat on the sidelines for a long time, watching the game like an assistant coach, but his positional order was the most marginal.

He can't say anything about the game.

Last season was Fitch's right-hand man, and now she has become Mrs. Niu.

It just so happened that he didn't plan to do anything for Fitch either.

Game 1, the Celtics played as expected, 121 to 88, and they hung up the Phillies and ravaged them.

Bird sat in the low post and blasted Dr. J's defense, scoring 25 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists.

K.C. Jones was not happy to see Louie.

"What are you worried about?" k.c asked.

"I'm worried they'll play too well and I'll never be appreciated by Bill again," Louie said hypocritically.

K.C is a real person, and he believes whatever Louis says.

"Would you like me to say a few words for you at Bill's?" k.c asked.

"That's not necessary. Now this situation is also an experience for me." Or, enjoy?

If Fitch beats the 76ers to lead the team to defend the title, this is the worst news, but Louie can also watch it and see how he resolves the contradictions within the team and turns it into a source of victory.

It would be better if the Celtics collapsed amid internal conflicts, or if Fitch made a mistake in command and the 76ers caught the loophole. Even if Fitch doesn't get fired, Louie can learn from it.

In the Celtics' big win, Louie saw Bird's bravery and obvious hidden dangers in the low post.

It's possible to get Bird to play an offensive system in the post, as long as you give him space.

If it can be done, then, how Dirk Nowitzki ravaged the league in the post in 2011, the better passer Bird can do the same.

The media, who like to do things, noticed that the night of Game 1 of the Celtics massacre of the 76ers was May 9, so they called the game "Mother's Day Massacre".

This word made Louis shudder. He really couldn't understand the brain hole of American reporters.

The word mother, in his opinion, is the softest word in the world, especially as a wanderer who has been away from home for a long time and rarely gets together with his mother, when he sees this word, he will only think of the bits and pieces of being with his mother. And they actually used the "Mother's Day Massacre" to commemorate the Celtics' victory over the 76ers.

They will have their retribution.

Louis thought at the time.

The speed of retribution is far beyond Louis' imagination.

Three days later, in the same garden, the 76ers' arrogance was completely different.

Bird, who was still playing low, faced continuous harassment from Bobby Jones, Dawkins, and Caldwell Jones, and the score was controlled at 16 points.

Bobby Jones has a huge range of help defense, and like Spider-Man, he sews webs and arranges silk holes, which almost single-handedly reduced the Celtics' paint-area hit rate by 20%.

He reminded Louie of Garnett and Kirilenko.

He has Kirilenko's acumen and Garnett's boundless defensive enthusiasm.

The defense of "white lightning" is the chassis for the 76ers to win.

Andrew Tony's high-level pull-up jump shot from the free throw line was a key weapon to kill the Celtics.

The Boston murderer committed the crime again, with 30 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. The 76ers defeated the Celtics and took away their home field advantage.

After a long absence, Louis will accompany the team to the away game.

He never imagined that the basketball **** likes to joke so much.

Last season, the Celtics won one game in the Eastern Conference finals and then lost three games in a row.

And this time, it seems to be repeating last year's script.

Back in the first game of the spectrum, the fierce confrontation between the two sides was quite like last year's sixth and seventh games of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Celtics did almost everything necessary to win.

Broke the 76ers' rebounds and got more assists and free throws.

However, the 76ers used their athleticism to shoot 51 percent from the field, beating the Celtics' 45 percent from the field.

In a 99-97 bloodbath, a 6 percentage point difference in shooting percentage is more important than the difference in rebounds, assists, and free throws.

2 to 1

The weird Eastern Conference finals schedule game 4 to be the night of game 3.

It was another back-to-back Eastern Conference finals, and the Celtics did not seem to wake up from the regrettable failure of game 3. Bird was caught in the Phillies' steel torrent due to poor tactical arrangements, and the offense did nothing.

Andrew Tony's butcher's knife was bloodied again, scoring 39 points to lead the 76ers to a 3-1 lead over the Celtics.

"If you think Philadelphia is going to win, look back at last season's Eastern Conference finals."

The Celtics' "old tune" in the Eastern Conference finals can only prove the failure of the offensive and defensive system that Fitch and his four assistant coaches worked so hard to design for a season.

Losing can cause a lot of conflict.

The Smiling Assassin couldn't stand Archibald holding him down any longer, he wanted to start.

Sampson is reluctant to waste too much energy in the post. He is eager to get the tactical position of last year when he runs and jumps on both ends of the floor to show his athleticism.

Ranbir was arguing with his assistant every day.

Maxwell's complaints were only a little louder than Lambiel's, but because he was black, his complaints were regarded as "shit" by the assistant coaches, and the Boston media put it on the line, saying that he played negatively on the court.

In Game 5, the taciturn Bird and Thomas, who was put in the starting lineup by Fitch, stood up. They gave their best and buried the 76ers.

2 to 3

Game 6 is a defensive battle. The combined score of the two sides does not exceed 150 points. The 76ers have low offensive efficiency. They are trapped in their own curse and worry about the recurrence of disaster.

The Celtics unrelentingly tied the series at 3-3.

"What's going to happen in Game 7?" Fitch asked the reporter proudly. "Don't you know? Go and see last year's game."

That day, Louis saw Bird in the locker room savagely kicking the door of the visiting team's locker room open and roaring: "One more win!"

Isiah Thomas also clapped his hands fiercely to cheer the crowd.

Louie is too familiar with this scene, and last year's Celtics were resurrected like this.

Are the 76ers about to be reversed again?

The plot was so similar to last season that few believed the weak Sixers could win in Game 7 at the Garden.

On the day of the game7 game, Louie heard a story.

76ers head coach Billy Cunningham ended practice an hour early and said to the players, "Whoever wants to stay and practice is up to you. The rest is up to you."

The 76ers looked at each other. They didn't expect Cunningham, who has always been conscientious, to suddenly let go.

They succeeded in convincing the 76ers that the world had abandoned them, that even their own coaching staff didn't believe they could win, that they had to fight the entirety of the Celtics in good spirits, put up with bad garden conditions, and the will of the world.

The souls of the second two burned in their bodies, they suddenly ignited themselves, the players of the 76ers began to encourage each other, and the belief of "only on their own" appeared. On the night of the game, they came to the garden, opened their locker, and found hundreds of envelopes inside. It was a joint letter from countless Philadelphia fans, management, and coaching staff. The letter contained only one sentence: Guys, we believe in you.

Louie didn't know at the time how it would relate to the game that night, but that game, the 76ers worked harder than the Celtics on every possession, and they played with more intensity and quality on every possession. From the lead to the end, Andrew Toney scored another 33 points and established the reputation of the Boston murderer.

Before the game was over, Bostonians in the garden knew they had no hope of winning, but they respected the Sixers' performance and knew who they were going to face.

The audience applauded spontaneously, shouting out the most famous cheering slogan in NBA history: "beatl.a!"

"beatl.a!"

When this slogan sounded, there were countless goose bumps on Louis's body~www.readwn.com~ He saw the pureness of sports. While the hostile fans hated each other, they were able to give respect to the opponent when the outcome was already divided. encourage.

The Celtics are about to go down, and the 76ers are going forward. They represent the entire East, and they are a continuation of the full-scale competition in the history of East and West coast sports.

Louie waited in silence for the game to end, and the Celtics lost.

The fly in the ointment is that the 76ers faced a revived Lakers in the finals.

Paul Westhead's dismissal was a low point for the Lakers. After Pat Riley was in place, Magic took 2 months to win back the love of fans. Showtime returned to Los Angeles. In the playoffs, they were invincible. A 4-0 sweep reached the final stage.

The Sixers' chemistry has been flawless, but they can't beat a healthy Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, a Magician with a smile on his face and the ball as he pleases, and a whole new Lakers team.

Happy basketball, wonderful offense, and victory solved the contradiction and put out the jealousy. With 4 to 2, the 76ers became the runner-up again, while Magic was re-elected to the fmvp with 16.2 points, 10.8 assists and 8 rebounds.
