the rest, only noise

Chapter 177 Your dream is destined to be disillusioned

Louis didn't adjust his defensive strategy because of the Mavericks, so he adjusted accordingly.

The Celtics have four systems, which are used to deal with different defenses.

Moreover, the strategy of blocking the middle and letting them go to the side is not a wise choice, but a forced to give up.

Otherwise, the Celtics will continue to hit the restricted area.

Instead of letting the Celtics attack at the basket with a shooting percentage of more than 65%, it is better to let them shoot mid-range shots. No matter how good the shooting percentage is, it is only about [-]%.

Anyone can do this kind of sub-question.

After Bird asked for the ball, Thomas' emotions no longer dominated.

In the 8th minute, Louis replaced Thomas.

Behind them, the fans at the scene said all kinds of nasty words to provoke Thomas.

He sat down in silence.

Louie didn't communicate with him, and Gerald Henderson, who replaced Thomas, did an excellent job as a tool man.

Against Henderson, the block-and-side approach doesn't work, because he's not Thomas' type of core defender, and he doesn't pride himself on breaking through any opposing camp player that comes in front of him.

He always calls out tactics calmly, concentrates on being a green leaf, and has no intention of being the protagonist.

Therefore, Bird stayed in the high position and played duo with him.

Bird received the ball from the three-point line, used his body as a cover to escort Henderson to make an air cut, and then took the ball himself to dominate.

Even if Henderson gets the ball, it is not the end point. The pressure of the Mavericks on the ball holder is enough to make him lose his mind about the offense.

He's an unselfish defender who is willing to use the ball to mobilize others.

Therefore, the Celtics' offense became more dynamic after Thomas was off the field.

Maxwell played the entire quarter and scored a team-high 15 points.

The Celtics also led the Mavericks by 36 to 22, 14 points in the first quarter.

Before the Mavericks made adjustments, the Celtics only led the Mavericks by 11 points. In the half-quarter after their adjustments, the point difference only expanded to 14 points.

For this, Luigi gave Mota a thumbs up.

"Let's adjust."

Louie changed the lineup.

Bird, Maxwell and John Long were all replaced.

Instead, a novel lineup: Henderson, Angie, ML Carr, Sampson, Lambiel.

"My plan tonight is to beat them by 40 points, but considering that you are 100 million levels behind the starting lineup, I don't think I can count on you to expand the advantage." Louis said angrily, "Although I have no other expectations for you, I still have a small wish. Keep the point difference at double digits, okay?"

Carl said dissatisfiedly: "Coach, you are too contemptuous of people when you say this?"

Henderson echoed in a low voice: "Yes, we have two starters anyway."

"Two starters? Do you mean Bill and Ralph? I admit that Ralph is valuable, Bill?" Louie's face was full of contempt. "If you put your hopes on them, I will be very pessimistic."

Lambiel's base bones: "That's right, no one can trust me. I was removed from the starting lineup for no reason and dare not even say a word of bullshit. It's not like other people. After being said a few words, I feel restless, and I sigh like a bitch when I don't start playing."

"Who the hell are you talking about?" Maxwell asked.

"Hey!" Lambiel didn't even look at Maxwell, but pointed at him impolitely, "Here comes the right seat!"

Fortunately, the second quarter started, otherwise Louis was worried that they would fight.

After Lambiel rolled onto the field with the second team, Louis turned around and said to Maxwell, "Is this the first day you know this vile dog? His words are nothing but fart. You don't even have this level of consciousness. You have the nerve to say that you have been teammates with him for a few years?"

Maxwell said dissatisfiedly: "Aside from being able to shoot three-pointers, what qualifications does he have to start?"

"I'm sorry, the three-pointer is the reason why he entered the starting lineup. You can shoot it if you have the ability. If you can't shoot it, don't talk about it here. It's just like that vile dog said, whining like a bitch."

Today was supposed to be a good day for Maxwell. He became the scoring leader in the first quarter, but Lambir fired at him inexplicably.

He sat down depressed.

"It's a good thing to have emotions, and a team without emotions has the worst future!" Cowens came to warm up like a macho.

Louis followed his words and said: "Dahong is right, it is good to have emotions, but some people obviously have emotions but pretend to be open-minded. The hermaphrodite who is originally a small belly, laughs like a dementia all day long. The shorty who wins favors never releases his emotions off the court. He always messes things up on the court and waits for me to scold him."

Louis did not name Thomas in order to save him some sympathy.

He looked at Thomas with a smile, and asked Cowens beside him, "Do you think he is cheap?"

Cowens claims to be a rough man, and he is proud of being rude. This is one of the ways to show his masculinity. It is normal to say a few rough words when playing basketball.

It's normal for the coach to be rude, but at times like this, the atmosphere has calmed down and he continues to shoot. He has only seen one person, and that is the former Celtics coach Bill Fitch.

The difference between Louie and Fitch is that unlike Fitch who fires around the clock, he only fires when a player has a problem.

Moreover, as long as he takes the initiative to shoot, don't expect him to take care of your face, he will tear off your face and throw it on the ground to pour urine and dung.

Thomas leaned against the bench, silent.

Everyone sitting here knows who Louis is cursing.

Seeing that Thomas was not about to attack, Louis snorted and reviewed the game.

KC came over and said, "You're being harsh on Isaiah."

"Don't worry, he has played under Coach Knight." Louis smiled, "My level should not be as good as 1/10 of Coach Knight's."

According to Louis's impression of Knight, with Thomas's virtue, he had to slap him a few times, and then pinched his neck to deepen his impression, so as not to make the same mistake again.

"However, Isiah is one of Coach Knight's most proud players." KC's meaning is very clear.

One of Knight's favorite players, which means Thomas probably won't take much of Knight's whip.

"KC, I have to do this," Louie said.

"I understand, but you are too strict with him." KC said, "You seem to be like this to everyone, but Isiah is our top card. He has a strong self-esteem. In fact, everyone is the same. If you give him a piece of candy, he will eat it. Once you hurt him, the scar will remain forever. This is human nature."

"You mean Isiah?"

Louis glanced at the autistic Thomas, and smiled back at KC's words.

"Yeah, since one injury will leave a scar, so we have to stop correcting him when they do something wrong because we are afraid of being hated by them. When you made a mistake on the court, Reid probably didn't care whether there was a scar in your heart." Louis paused, his eyes were sharp, "Since you hurt him once and you will leave a permanent scar, why not hurt him a few more times? When his body is riddled with holes, he may get used to it. Once he gets used to it, give him another piece of candy, maybe he will be grateful. KC, it's also human nature."

KC never interfered with Louie's coaching. In fact, he knew very well that Louis' education of Thomas was necessary.

Thomas was a complicated man, and his smile was the perfect cover, no one could read his smile.

He always has one thing on the surface and another thing behind the other, saying that he supports you, but he is completely opposed to you in his heart.Selfishness and team first, very contradictory, right?This is the smiling assassin.

A superstar with ego, self-respect and team interests first.

He knows very well that basketball is a team sport, and he knows very well that in order to win, he needs help from others.He can make sacrifices for this team, provided that he is the core of this team.If there is another core above him, he doesn't mind stepping back, but the premise is that the other party also shares his own starlight.

So he could succeed with Joe Dumars, but after he proposed to Adrian Antley that "whoever wins the FMVP should share the trophy with others to play with", he secretly asked the management to send him away in exchange for his good brother (Mark Aguirre).

He was willing to share, and he wanted those around him to share with him, but in Boston, Bird was always given everything willingly.

Unfortunately, the city of Boston cannot satisfy Thomas.

Louis insisted on tearing open the biggest rift in Thomas' heart, just to make him understand.

He can never get what he wants.

It's not that Bird doesn't want to share, it's that Boston doesn't want to give.

How could the people of Boston allow a nigger to share in Byrd's glory?Let him and Sampson become the shadow behind Bird, and it is already a gift to share a little credit.

Twenty years ago, fans would break open the door of his house, shit on the bed, smash trophies, send black cats, and threaten letters.

Louis deeply understands Thomas' knot, the problem is that there is no solution to this matter.Now that he has become the head coach, he can't let this kind of thing become an obstacle for the team. He wants Thomas to understand that the general environment is not something they can change.Since he's playing for the Celtics, just focus on playing with all his strength, don't be affected by these shit, apply for a trade if you can't stand it, he's been playing here for four years, who can stop him from leaving?
Since he doesn't ask for a deal, and knows the virtues of the city of Boston, but still foolishly wants to get as much respect and love as Bird, then Louis can only wake him up.

When Louie educated the substitute players in sweet American words off the court, the previous aggressive method began to take effect.

Everyone in the Celtics second team was very angry. They didn't expect Louie to belittle themselves so much.

Lambiel didn't care on the surface, but actually?Within a few minutes, he knocked the Mavericks players to the ground continuously, and his murderous eyes really reflected the famous comment of the magician on him.

No one wants to ruin their career for 2 points, right?no?
Louie believes the Mavericks think that statement is true.

Because they haven't hit the ball to the basket for 2 minutes.
