The Rest, Only Noise

Vol 2 Chapter 1562: Dynasty is in your hands

Melee combat is a double-edged sword.

The Knicks used extreme physical confrontation to defeat the Celtics dynasty in 1988.

Nearly two decades later, these two teams battled each other again in the Eastern Conference Finals. However, this time it was Knicks who was the one who was frustrated by the hand-to-hand combat. In Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals, in the legendary "Garden of Eden", the Knicks couldn't find their focus all the way.

Although they managed to suppress the Celtics' overall shooting percentage to just over 40%, they themselves shot below 40%.

To make matters worse, the long-term high-intensity battle made the disease come to the door at this critical juncture.

Veteran Chris Webber suffered a stress fracture in his left foot in Game 6, not only withdrew from the playoffs, but also has a high probability of missing the game next season.

McGrady suffered a serious contusion of his right ankle during the game and sat out the entire second half.

The departure of the two cores made the Knicks lose the ability to forcibly close the game through hard power.

The Celtics fought hard to the end, 89 to 82, and struggled to win the game from the home of the New Yorkers, keeping the suspense of the Eastern Conference finals to the end.

So far, the outside world has completely turned to the Celtics.

Without Tracy McGrady and Webber, the Knicks have absolutely no chance of beating the Celtics in Game 7.

However, Tracy McGrady is a magical player, he likes if, also likes to dream, and has both Durant-style soft and hard duality.

When you thought he was a soft guy, he was extremely tough and reliable on such a big occasion.

Although the doctor said McGrady's foot injury needs at least two weeks of rest before returning, but McGrady refused to bid farewell to the season in this way.

McGrady believes that the West is weak, and whoever reaches the finals between the Knicks and the Celtics will become the championship.

Now the Knicks are only one step away from the finals. If they fall here and all previous efforts are wasted, maybe their generation of Knicks players will never have such a good opportunity again.

On that day, Willis Reid, Patrick Ewing, Benjamin Wilson, Walter Fraser. The great legacy of Knicks basketball was reflected in Tracy McGrady. He decided to inject a blockade and force a seventh game.

Since becoming the owner of the Celtics, Louie has rarely cared so much about the team. By staying out of the way, Louie can look at the series from a fan's point of view.

He was worried about his son, but also worried about the Celtics' seventh game.

This team is so young, they don't know how to play Game 7.

Moreover, watching McGrady play in the closed game, Louis was even more inexplicably nervous. In his previous life, Louie had seen two of the toughest things McGrady did (1). One of them was playing against the Jazz in the sixth game of the first round of the 2008 playoffs. In the end, he scored 40 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists. He looked helpless, because at that time, the big man who could share the pressure for him fell early, and he fought alone, dragging the series to the sixth game, but the result was still nothing, the Rockets only had Luis Scola Scored in double figures, while the Jazz on the opposite side had seven players in double figures.

This is a typical loss in a hard fight. Considering McGrady's physical condition at the time and the gap between the Rockets and the Jazz, there was no need for him to play such a game, but he did it anyway.

The McGrady who plays for the Knicks is still the same McGrady. He is more confident and stronger than in his previous life, and he has more good teammates around him.

Can the Celtics make it through?

This question only stayed in Louie's mind for a quarter of the game. Lu Wuxia ruthlessly launched an offensive against McGrady.

As long as McGrady is present, Lu Wuxia will directly attack McGrady's defense by name. As long as McGrady holds the ball, Lu Wuxia's defense is extremely rough.

After tonight, Lu Wuxia will lose New York fans because of the cruelty he did to McGrady.

Not only was he attacking McGrady, but Lu Wuxia also accurately grasped the Knicks' inner killer.

The Knicks' restricted area, lacking stars, was ruled by Yao Yueban and Pau Gasol with impunity.

In less than three quarters, Prince Dalembert of Haiti fouled out.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Zach Randolph, who lost his mind due to frustration and loss, fouled Gasol maliciously and was expelled by the referee.

McGrady, who was blocked, did not play a wonderful performance worthy of the name of the block.

Because the momentum was ruthlessly suppressed by Lu Wuxia from the very beginning.

In the whole game, McGrady made 7 of 22 shots and scored only 20 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists. The Knicks had nothing to do with the Celtics' offense in the fold. As the defense declined and the Celtics' block-and-cut tactics fully blossomed, the suspense of the game disappeared. From 1 to 3 behind to 4 to 3 reversal, Boston has experienced too much.

The last three minutes of the game were completely part of the celebration. The defending champion New York Knicks paid a heavy price and ultimately failed to take away the victory from the Celtics' home court.

The only thing they did that made New York feel bad was refusing to shake the Celtics' hand after the game.

They left the field early under the leadership of James Posey. Although it was not graceful, the Bostonians had nothing to say, because the Celtics were the first to do so in 1988.

The Celtics, who achieved a big reversal, brought unprecedented excitement to New England. The media began to use large articles to explain to fans how the evil Knicks defeated the Celtics.

They were dirty, obscene, and unscrupulous. It was completely understandable not to shake hands with them back then, but today, they refused to shake hands with the Celtics who were defeating them majestically, which shows that the evil genes are inherited.

In addition to touting newcomers and liquidating old enemies, the outside hype has also been raised to a whole new level.

The original hype was only based on the standard of a super rookie, and now he is not talking about the rules, and he is directly compared with Benjamin Wilson of the same age.

According to the tone of the media, it seems that the Celtics are destined to win the championship.

It's no wonder they opened champagne at halftime, because the intensity in the West was significantly lower than that in the East.

The Western Conference champion Dallas Mavericks also played seven games against the Utah Jazz.

Ultimately, the Mavericks' ceiling was a little higher.

Bodi Loga also suffered a little injury in the seventh game. Although the Mavericks said that the problem is not serious, even if the two virtues are in their prime, it is difficult for the Mavericks to beat the Celtics. There is a lot of difference between the two sides in lineup depth alone.

The combination of Bodi Loga and Nowitzki is like a weakened version of Wilson and O'Neal.

A few years ago, the O combination couldn't even make it to the finals in the Eastern Conference. If Shuangde was played at that time, there was no hope of making it out of the Western Conference. Now that the Lakers implode, the Jazz have no experience to pass the risk. Facing the experience The Celtics, who have passed the **** test of the Knicks, really have little chance of winning.

In the first two games of the finals, the Celtics won by double digits.

In Game 1 heading to Dallas, Bird relapsed, allowing Parker to return to the dominant position.

It turned out to be a **** of a lot, Parker back to @

In the sixth game, the league replaced the three referees who were in charge of the fifth game, giving Louis a clear attitude.

Then Louis urged Auerbach to watch another game at the Fleet Center. The Celtics are very likely to win the sixth game. This will be their first trophy in 18 years. Auerbach's arrival will make it even more special.

On match day, the Fleet Center is crowded with people.

The Mavericks made a strong start and created some dangers, but the shooting and killing of Lu Wuxia and Wade allowed the Celtics to stabilize the situation.

Sharpshooter Rasoul Butler scored three points in a row, and the point difference soared to 12 points. Since then, the intensity of the game has come down.

The Mavericks lost the confidence and belief in winning the game psychologically.

In the second half, the UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Celtics even a rookie like Tony Allen could run a few laps.

Two minutes before the end of the game, the audience booed, Auerbach reluctantly took out his cigar, and Louie lit it for him.

"This will be a scene left in history!"

At the end, 121 to 105, the Celtics beat the Mavericks 4 to 2 and won the first championship in the Louis era.

The carnival atmosphere at the scene cannot be described in words. The Celtics fans in Boston have waited too long for this championship.

Louis originally wanted to ask Auerbach to go back to the locker room together.

But Auerbach declined his invitation, "Forget it, I don't want to be sprayed with champagne."

"And" the old man said lightly, "Now, the dynasty is really in your hands."

Louis smiled. Auerbach cared about the limelight, but he didn't care.

Considering the atmosphere in the locker room, Auerbach's age is indeed inappropriate.

Louis was about to walk towards the passage when suddenly the old man called him.

"Changed your mind?"

"No," Auerbach took the cigar out of his mouth and looked at the championships above the center of the fleet, which was the evidence that he had been there. "Did I ever tell you about the time a Hollywood producer wanted Dorothy to audition in Los Angeles? Just before we got married, the guy offered to pay her $75 a day"
