The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 670: Self Contradictory Road Coach

Kemp used a dunk to get Louie excited, and then spent 4 minutes at the speed of light accumulating 4 fouls, 2 turnovers, and 1 wave shot to cool Louie down.

Louie called a timeout for him, and Willis Reed had a look on his face, this **** needs a good scolding.

"Xiao Xiao is still too young." Louis did not scold Camp, "I'll leave it to you, Willis."

Kemp didn't dare to look Louie in the eyes when he came off the court.

He knew he screwed up a lot.

As he passed by Louis, he prayed that Louis would ignore him.

As a result, Louie slapped him **** the ass: "Although I'd love to open your head to see if it's filled with **** or goo, but your dunks amused me, so I decided not to give you a few minutes later. This is your career debut, I'm a forgiving head coach, remember this, I'll give you the chance to make mistakes, please promise me that I'll be tough on dunks even if I only have a 1% chance Push the **** hard, okay?"

Camp didn't quite understand what Louie said.

Are you threatening him, praising him, encouraging him, or giving him homework?

"Sean, get over here!" Reed's roar brought Camp's attention back to reality in an instant.

Louis spent half of the time talking nonsense at Campona, and then spent the other half of the time getting back most of the main force, and briefly explained how to play later.

Aside from Rodman, all four of the Knicks' transition five were replaced.

Then came Stockton, Miller, Wilson and McHale, who made his debut tonight.

"I'd like to see more ExchangeRicky in the high post," Louie said confidently. "You just need to be clear about that, as long as we run the game properly, the Portlanders' defense will be overwhelmed."

The Knicks' Exchange Ricky (high dynamic offense), when facing other teams, plays IQ suppression, relying on the strong containment of off-ball personnel to cause opponents to make mistakes in defense, so as to find easy empty cuts or catch-and-shoot opportunities .

This kind of routine has a high fault tolerance rate and stable food abuse.

Playing a strong team, you can also rely on a great pitcher like Miller to change the opponent's tactics.

What is ExchangeRicky most afraid of? It's a switching team. If the Knicks are not facing the Blazers, but another team that implements switching execution into every detail, it's useless to rely on IQ to suppress.

It's a pity that the pioneers have no configuration, but no one carefully teaches them.

They played the defense most likely to contain the Knicks, but failed to produce the desired results.

Why this is, I am afraid Pitino will never understand.

The Knicks replaced the main force, and the Blazers replaced Drexler in exchange for Jordan and Terry Porter, Larry Nance and Rick Schmitz.

They kept Clifford Robinson, who was amazing.

There are more newcomers, and less gliders to give opportunities.

The Blazers usually go wrong off the ball against the Knicks on Drexler's side.

Now with a new member on board, there's theoretically some communication flaws that Louie wants to take advantage of -- but in practice, the Blazers have done a good job of switching, aside from a handful of poor off-ball defenses, in the next few minutes. Okay, not only did the Blazers not have bad communication because of Robinson's addition, but because of him, the defense became smoother.

Clifford Robinson's performance completely exceeded Louie's expectations.

Originally, Louie's impression of him was just a face that flashed in the Jordan Shrug battle, but now he has a more intuitive impression of this person.

He is much like Rasheed Wallace, but more stable emotionally, and will not go to the referee to lead the T at every turn.

Robinson's moving range makes him special. He is the player with the largest defensive range in the Blazers. Jordan has the top single defense and first-class help defense, and Robinson has the first-class single defense and top help defense.

On paper, the Blazers' defensive resources are too good.

But after the Knicks started, their high dynamic offense was like a shampoo commercial, looking like hair with special effects, extremely smooth.

McHale took the ball low, and the attack was only a superficial gesture. The real intention was to make a layup for Miller who cut in on the weak side.

And, Robinson made the same rookie mistakes.

Too aggressive, want to give confrontation, but don't know how to give it, the referee at Madison Square Garden won't get used to him and gave him a foul, which happens to be 2+1;

Wilson threw off Jordan around Rodman's off-ball screen, bullied Schmitz for being slow, the defense couldn't catch up, and dunked.

Once again, the Knicks seized on the defensive shortcomings of the Blazers' books.

Moreover, Schmitz may be the only shortcoming on the Blazers' books.

"The performance of the Knicks embarrassed Rick Schmitz, who is often an important part of the Blazers' offense when facing other teams, but in front of the Knicks, he was Benj, Dennis, Kevin, John Stockton as a plaything."

In the high post, McHale pretended to hand the ball to his teammates, swerved abruptly, went to the hoop and hit Schmitz behind him.

It's Schmitz again!

Louis stood on the sidelines with ease, did he lay out specific tactics? Do not.

He only gave a strategy.

Because of the specific tactics, these players are already familiar with it.

They know how to play, and they only need to know how to play if Louie tells them what strategy to execute.

In this case, as long as they don't make low-level mistakes or other obvious mistakes, Louie just needs to stand on the sidelines and ask Jordan: "Michael, are you tired of running around like this? Would you like to sit down and drink Gatorade? ?"

Or, he will stimulate Schmitz: "Rick, why do your players prefer to attack the basket when you are on the court? Is it your problem?"

After a series of problems, Schmitz finally left the paint in a more complicated Knicks free throw line match. A gratifying first time, anyone's first time deserves attention.

For the first time in so long, Schmitz ran out of the paint.

Just because he ran out of the paint doesn't mean the Blazers' defense is safe. The Knicks have a lot of options. The ball handler is dislocated to play Schmitz.

Under Louis's instructions, they chose the more sinister latter.

Schmitz came out, but McHale and Rodman went full speed to the basket.

There is only Clifford Robinson there. The poor rookie is faced with a partial one-defense and two-defense situation. Either the defense is successful and the team's morale is improved, or he is played as a monkey, proving that the Blazers have no tricks with the Knicks' offense.

McHale faked a layup and jumped into the air with a back pass. Rodman received the ball without pausing and dunked. Although the physical contact with Robinson should be ignored, the rookie needs to be heavily educated. It is a basketball game. unspoken rules.

Robinson eats another body hair whistle.

After that, before the end of the first half, the Knicks dominated Wilson and scored two more offenses.

Wilson's ball handling has improved significantly this season, but he's more than willing to show off his ball skills. Using Rodman's off-ball cover to play Robinson in a dislocation, unlike other veterans, he made a pull-up jumper after adjustment; the other ball was a circle in the bottom corner. , he took the ball and turned a three-pointer from the bottom corner of the left wing to bring the difference to 13 points, and the game was suspended.

Before the end of the first half, Miller received another buzzer from two meters away from the top of the arc, giving the Knicks a 70-point halftime lead over the Blazers by 16 points.

"It's pleasing to the eye!" Hubby Brown praised, "Most of the Knicks' offense in the second quarter caught the opponent's unsteady footing. Before they had time to switch defenses or help defense, they shot out the bullet."

Brent Musberg asked: "Hubby, if you were the Blazers coach, what would you say to the players in the locker room?"

Brown joked: "I will let the players re-introduce themselves and get to know each other again. They only know how to implement the coaching staff's intentions on the field, but there is no communication and communication, especially Rick Schmitz, he looks too bad. It's gone!"

In an interview with CBS, Louie praised the Blazers: "Coach Pitino really changed this team. Give them a few more years and they will be completely different."

Well, by then Jordan should be beaten to retirement.

Although Pitino directed the game very weird, but Louie had to admit, the Blazers' style is tailor-made for the Knicks.

It stands to reason that they should restrain the Knicks.

Terribly powerful wings, high-pressure press defenses, advanced switching concepts.

But the Knicks are so good as a whole that the coaching staff can't make any mistakes even if his opponent has the best configuration.

To suppress the Knicks, first of all, the Blazers must have a strong forward line (√), a coaching staff that emphasizes defense, pressing, confrontation, and switching (√), and pays more attention to discipline than defensive pressure (×), like a perfectionist. Details (×).

Even if everything is done right, the team's own lineup structure is required to have strong personal ability~www.readwn.com~ Because such an extreme defensive style team reaches the end, it is impossible to score by tactics alone. Need to rely on personal ability, if the personal ability is too poor, than the Knicks than a heads-up.

But the Blazers happen to have it all, but they don't have a head coach comparable to Louis.

It's understandable that Louie wants Pitino to stay in Portland, because even he can't imagine what this team would be like if it fell to Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, or any other coach with attention to detail and discipline. what becomes.

In his heart, he hoped that there would be no such people to save Portland and Jordan.

However, under the surface of his mind, he vaguely hoped that there really was such a person.

Just like he doesn't know what the Blazers' strength is like when they are used to the extreme, he also doesn't know what the current Knicks are like when they go all out when they enter their heyday.

Will he meet a team like they challenged the Celtics to challenge them?

If not, how regrettable would it be?
