The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 644: reluctant victory

Detroiters hated Louie, hated his Knicks, hated him for drinking Coke before every win.

Why can't this guy roll round with his victory?

He can't, because he still has to do a live interview with CBS.

"Coach Lu, is this a difficult game?"

"From the point of view of the score, it is not." Louie glanced at the scorer, 118 to 102. "But tonight was really tough."

A reporter from the front of CBS asked: "What are the main aspects?"

"It's mainly the fans who put a lot of pressure on us," Louie laughed. "I know every team that comes to Auburn Hills feels that way, so just get used to it."

The people of Detroit didn't want to hear more from Louie, and since they couldn't stay to make things difficult for the Knicks (it didn't make much sense), they left quickly.

In this game, Wilson, who had previously performed super-giant performances in a row, was still stable enough to make the Pistons sick.

Tonight, he didn't score much, just 30 points. It is the lowest level since the start of the Eastern Conference finals, but sent 12 assists.

Throughout the Eastern Conference finals, Wilson's most impressive is his instigation.

With Detroit's switching strategy, Stockton can't play the team at the rhythm he's used to.

Therefore, in most cases, the Knicks need Wilson's stable performance to drive others.

As a result, he did it, averaging double figures in assists per game in the series, not only the team's scoring leader, but also the assists leader.

Chuck Daly sighed: "New York not only has a good team, but also a good coach. If your opponent does not make mistakes at all, it means that the possibility of winning by the weak is 0."

Now that the Pistons are down 0-3, the only remaining motivation for the Pistons to win is to let the Knicks lose in the playoffs.

Ten-year-old football fans should know what a battle of honor is.

But in the face of this kind of honor-related game, players may not be able to work hard for honor, either have infighting, lack confidence, or lose.

The Pistons belong to the third reason. They were beaten by the Knicks and had no idea how to win.

In the West, after three games, the Lakers lead the Jazz 2-1.

The tragic division played Shi Yikong's level in the third game of the Western Conference Finals.

22 points, 14 rebounds and 19 assists in a single game.

This kind of data, Louis actually saw it on a man named Russell.

Unlike the future Russell, the tragic master gets this kind of data, which is the inevitable result of a specific situation.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is old, Pippen truce, he doesn't play like this, how can the Lakers win?

May 26

Whether the Knicks can lose a playoff game in the East depends on today.

"Nobody supported Detroit because the other teams lost to New York and Detroit deserved to lose, everybody thought."

Pistons announcer Ken Calvert said resignedly.

"But the more we have to stay strong in this difficult situation, miracles will only happen to those who don't give up."

Whether the Pistons players gave up or not, Louis wondered, what are the Pistons doing?

In the opening rounds of the game, he couldn't understand the Pistons' defensive strategy.

The last time he encountered a game that he couldn't understand at all was when he first arrived in Boston in 1978, but this time, he couldn't understand it again.

The Pistons have used three strategies over the past three games.

Putting mid-range shots, placing three-pointers, and attacking each other, without exception, were easily resolved by the Knicks.

The most valuable lesson the Pistons have learned is not to give the New Yorkers a chance.

The Pistons seem to be terrified of the Knicks' switching, and the pick-and-roll strategy has been greatly reduced.

The limited number of pick-and-rolls Dumars and other guards have with Parish are all initiated from the left and right flanks, and the ball carrier goes to the bottom line. Most teams will choose big defenders and small players to prevent such pick-and-rolls. The defenders work together to drive the ball carrier to the bottom line, and close the bottom corner on the weak side to help defend the screener.

In this way, it is very difficult for the ball carrier to pass the alley to the screener.

In fact, so far in the series, the Pistons' pick-and-roll tactics have been severely restricted by the Knicks.

The Knicks' flank switching on the periphery and Ewing's blockade of the penalty area blocked their opportunity to eat cakes on the inside.

Today, Parish, who is the Pistons' top performer in both finishing and ball-handling, has never been trusted by the coaching staff and teammates since the beginning.

As far as Louie is concerned, the Pistons coaching staff did not try to play tactics on Parish at all, and Parish only played less than 26 minutes in this game. Compared to him, Daley prefers to play small **** around Worthy. Routines, however, Worthy's offense is also powerless to the Knicks. He is not a real insider, and it is difficult to resist Ewing. His basket protection and rebounding are much poorer, so he cannot bring positive benefits to the Pistons.

In the first few games, Louis can understand the various practices of the Pistons.

Today's play, he watched for a long time, and saw that his players easily established a lead. Worthy was blind and was tormented in the interior, but the Pistons coaching staff was instilling in him every round "You hold on. , Victory is ours" and so on.

Louis could not understand but was quite shocked.

In addition, Joe Dumars basically wrote on his face "It's almost over, I'm waiting for the holiday".

I saw Dumars threw a few touches on the outside under Stockton's release, and found that none of them were thrown in, and his mood was even lower. Later, he started to possess the Buddha, and he fished online. He just pushed back and fought back. Occasionally play with the ball once. In the space where the Pistons are extremely constipated, the probability of attacking the basket is to give a cap to Ewing.

The Pistons' coaching staff was exhausted, and the only thing left was passion, and their passion was not conveyed to the players. Except for Parish, who couldn't catch the ball, everyone else turned into a blacksmith shop owner.

Ilo was 1 of 4, Worthy was 3 of 11, Aguirre was 3 of 10, Mahon was 2 of 5, and Dumars was 3 of 9. No one was a human.

Moreover, the harder the shot is, the more blocked the basket will be, resulting in the Pistons not being able to shoot from the outside, attacking the inside and encountering terrifying defensive pressure, and naturally it is difficult to score.

The Pistons' offense made the fans in Auburn Hills desperate.

They shouted happily at the beginning, and slowly they became dumb as if they had been gagged.

The shooting is not good, the basket is too blocked, and the Pistons' offense is like constipation, which is uncomfortable.

In the second half, the Pistons' coaching staff hoped to rely on mid-range singles to solve the constipated offense.

They let Worthy go head-to-head first - his height and speed are good for mid-range heads-up, but his touch is a problem. Fortunately, he didn't want the Pistons' final game of the season to end with a 30-point difference. Feeling slowly back to find.

Afterwards, inspired by Worthy, Dumars began to cheer himself up and went to Stockton for a duel. Of course, his hand was still bad, so he closed himself in a while, and Aguirre would single without being reminded. Picks - The Pistons' mechanically orderly offensive system suddenly turned into a large number of high-post singles that Daley could not have imagined.

But there is no other way. They have no routine to play. The only way is to play whoever gets the ball as it is now.

In turn, the Knicks have all kinds of easy waves.

Because the opponent's resistance is too low, Wilson is another person who needs to be stimulated to cheer up.

So he decided to have some fun with himself, like teleporting 5 assists with his back.

He had five turnovers before getting five assists.

"Benj, get out of here!"

"Coach, isn't he your darling?" Ewing asked gloatingly.

Mr. You successfully broke the defense for Coach Lu: "What's the matter with you? Go away!"

Wilson knew why Louie was angry, so he came down and smiled like a fool, "Coach, I was wrong."

"I think I was wrong. I was so good to you that I had hallucinations. You don't have to play this game anymore, just rest."

Louie traded Rodman for Wilson.

It turned out that, in that case, whether or not Wilson was replaced would have no effect on the result.

In the fourth quarter, Daly uttered all sorts of uplifting words to motivate the players, who aimed to keep the difference under 30 points.

Louie and Daly are friends, and humiliating each other is not his goal, so for most of the fourth quarter, the Knicks had only two main players on the court.

But the Pistons' feel is too bad, and Louie can't deliberately let his men miss the ball.

Sekali, Marly, Hornacek, Song Tao, An Ji, the phantom gods of Yishui's garbage time, all dare to fight and fight to kill their opponents.

In the end, with Louie's reluctance, the Knicks tyrannized the Pistons with 34 points, with a heavy humiliation, knocking the Detroit out of the playoffs.

After the game, Louie walked up to Daly and wanted to express his shame.

"Stop talking, Lu." Daly laughed, "I have all my words in hand."

He held Louis's hand, and with a force, he almost fractured Louis.
