The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 625: Untouchable Bavita

The ideal stage for a good basketball game should be Madison Square Garden.

But a good basketball game, the referee in charge of the law, should not have Dick Bavitta's name on it.

Louie faced his opponent tonight, rookie coach Jerry Sloan, who was thrown off the shelf.

Sloan's ascendance belongs to the "everyone was shocked when it happened, but no one cared about it over time".

Why did the jazz's godfather Frank Ryden dismissed from get out of class, Louie has not yet figured out.

Ryden sees coaching as an educational tool that makes his players better people. He never shied away from his responsibilities and embraced the roles of coach, teacher and parent and took seriously the obligations that came with it.

Louie often communicated with him at the annual meeting. When talking about his coaching philosophy, Leiden always emphasized that he wanted the player to be a good person more than a good basketball player. This concept is not tolerated by professional basketball.

Now, when the Jazz is in a good time, stepping back behind the scenes and handing over the responsibility to the rookie Sloan is a risk and a gamble. If it goes wrong, Sloan's coaching career will be ruined.

Sloan looked nervous and even made a grammatical error when saying hello to Louie: "Okay, Coach Lu?"

"I'm fine." Louis showed the demeanor of a "senior", "Let's work hard together."

This is undoubtedly ironic. In terms of seniority, Sloan is the predecessor of Louis.

Active in the 1970s, Sloan retired his jersey at the Chicago Coliseum as the "original Bull" and then spent four meaningless coaching seasons in Chicago.

From this point of view, Sloan can be regarded as Louis' predecessor.

But he is not only humble in front of Louis, but also has an apprentice heart, because the Jazz's offensive system completely copied the offense, while Louis created a different system in the Knicks.

Even John Wooden himself admits that the Knicks' offense is just a name and has little to do with the Bruins.

Seeing Sloan's first face, Louis was unexpected.

The Sloan he learned earlier was a rumor from his playing days, and the rumored Sloan was a desperate lunatic who sounded like Kevin Garnett, Dave Cowens, Drummond Green's kind of guy who can burn himself out for the game.

The coaching version of Sloan sees the Bulls coaching experience as a shame and is very humble, which may be related to his poor background, and he has awe and a strong desire to explore his work.

This kind of person is not easy to deal with. Louie suddenly felt that Sloan's Jazz would become the final opponent this year when the Celtics and the Blazers were out one after another.

Before the start of the game, the referee and the deputy referee came to say hello.

Today's referee is the disgusted Dick Bavita, and the assistant referee is Jim Kinsey, a first-year professional league referee, who has been in the college league before.

As one of many high-level referees introduced by the league, his business ability has been fully tested in college.

The referees were brought in for another plan by the league's office: a return to three-man refereeing.

The appearance of a team like the Knicks reminded the league office. That is, two referees can only watch four or five players at most, which gives players the opportunity to make small moves.

While the Knicks don't want to be labelled as fiddly, the gangster title is dead and they can't even take it off.

If the league really restores the three-man referee system in the future, Louis will be relieved.

The more referees, the less room for small moves. In this way, a team like them that is formal and serious about physical abuse and torture can walk a wider way. Instead, a certain Boston team has problems. .

Is there a person on earth who understands basketball who doesn't know that Bird and Ranbir are the dirtiest people to play on the Blue Star?

The pre-match warm-up session is over, and the starters of both sides enter the court.

The starters on the Knicks side: Hornacek, Miller, Wilson, Brad Rohos, Ewing.

"I don't know if LittleLu is arrogant enough to ignore the opponent, or if he really thinks they won't lose again." Billy Cunningham scoffed. "How dare he start Brad in this game?"

For the question of flies, Louis never paid attention to it.

The Jazz's starting lineup was equally bizarre: Mark Price, Alvin Robertson, Tom Chambers, Malone, Eaton.

In this lineup, there are no shooting guards and no small forwards. In fact, this is a lineup of 2PG, 2PF, and 1C.

It's just that because Chambers' athletic ability can keep up with most 3s, and Robertson can defend from 1 to 3, they won't have a problem on defense, but offensively , various dislocation arrangements have become an advantage.

The dislocation power of the offense's pick-and-roll system is magnified in them.

Eaton won the jump ball, and the Knicks quickly returned to the defense.

The Knicks' defensive position showed a clear 1-4 pocket formation.

Stockton marked Price, and the other four kept a distance from the defender, mainly guarding the penalty area.

Louie also gave Stockton special instructions.

"The first few possessions, try to get Mark to shoot."

You know, Price can be regarded as the most unplayable person in the league.

He is undoubtedly a contemporary Nash, with a three-point shooting rate of 44.1%. Whether it is a quick stop shot with the ball or a running catch shot, he has a very high level.

It is the times that limit him from amplifying his own threats.

It is difficult for Sloan to break the restrictions of the times, let him hang a Malone pick-and-roll, and shoot decisively when he sees an open space.

Sure enough, Price's first choice wasn't a shot after Stockton opened up.

He was waiting for Malone to take the seat.

After all, what Malone is against is Rohos, what kind of stinky fish is that? Give Malone a one-on-one kill without killing him?

He had a good idea, but he didn't expect that when Stockton gave him space, he wouldn't try to shoot, even though he's shooting 44 percent from 3-point range?

Rohos used his milk strength to run on Malone.

Price was worried about the defender on Malone's flank, and the Knicks obviously had to wait for him to pass the ball before attacking.

Thinking of this, Price was no longer obsessed with passing the ball to Malone. When he found that he had space to shoot, he started throwing it.

"Shh!"

"Sure enough!" Louis exclaimed.

In 1988, he was put on a three-pointer from the bottom corner. He was hesitant at first, but when he realized that he couldn't pass the ball, he chose to shoot.

How good is this shot?

It's a pity, Louis sighed, Price would have developed better under him.

"John, don't let it go." Louie laughed, "That guy's shooting is incredible!"

All of Stockton's actions were directed by Louis, and he knew what to do after hearing what Louis said.

The Knicks' offense went according to plan.

The value of Rohos in this game is to be able to execute the pick-and-roll three-pointer.

For a giant center like Eaton, the inside pick-and-roll outside the three-pointer is deviant.

Even Malone would not care about Brad, they would only focus on Marking Stockton.

So Rojos made the Knicks' first goal of the night.

3 to 3

"The most memorable feature of LittleLu is that he doesn't let an unremarkable player into the starting roster for no reason."

Dick Stockton deliberately disgusted Cunningham.

"However, I can't imagine how Brad Rohaus will defend as long as Karl Malone is in position."

What Cunningham said was right. Rohos tried his best to stop Malone from taking the seat. All kinds of fouls came out, but the referee didn't sound the whistle.

He angered Malone.

This Ma Long was not a kind person in the first place. When he found that the referee didn't care about small actions, he hit Rohos with an elbow on the spot.

Rohos was hit hard and fell peacefully without acting skills.

Exactly that moment, "Beep!"

One of Dick Bavitta's most hated traits: the double standard!

He treats players on both sides of the scale, is not the same.

Rohos had at least 6 fouls against Malone just now, and he didn't call any of them.

Malone returned one, and he blew it.

"Didn't you see what he did to me?" Malone yelled, entangled like an angry woman.

Does he not know that Bavetta is a scumbag judge who goes his own way?

"Hey!" Ewing shook the confused Rohos.

Louis asked from a distance, "Are people still alive?"

"I'm gasping," Ewing responded.

"Want to lift it down?"

"Don't! Don't replace me!" Luo Haosi stood up strongly, "I can persevere!"

Although Sloan is a rookie coach (by his own definition), he also knows the reason for pressure, and immediately outputs a pass to Baveta.

Bavita frowned, and a sentence made Sloan speechless: "Because the opponent's action is illegal, so your players can launch a personal attack on the opponent?"

"Dick Bavita, although UU reading www.uukanshu.com looks stupid horizontally, looks stupid vertically, looks stupid from a distance, and looks stupid up close..."

McHale echoed: "In short, he is a fool!"

"That's right, but if this stupid thing is good for us, don't you think that this stupid thing looks a lot more pleasing to the eye?" Before Louis came to MSG today, he was ready to be disgusted by Bavita. .

It's useful to put pressure on some referees, it's useful to threaten, even to stand on the sidelines and chat with them, but there's really nothing you can do about Baveta if he's going to screw up a game.

Malone's complaints, and the entanglement of the Jazz's coaching staff, led Bavita to give them a technical foul.

This Sloan assistant coach and former Jazz head coach Frank Layden exploded with anger: "You just sentence New York to win!"

"Oh?" Bavita asked coldly, "Is there a problem with your player attacking each other personally, and I call him a foul? He doesn't admit his fault and questions my authority, and you don't dissuade him and join him. Obstructing the progress of the game, disregarding the authority of the referee, and calling you a technical foul Is there a problem? Is there a problem? Is there a problem? Can you try again?"
