the rest, only noise

Chapter 290 Isn’t it a sin? (19127)

"Pat, KB (Bannister), Trent, Darnett (Walker), Pat."

Louis said: "The initial stage of the second quarter is up to you to play."

"Vinier Johnson's shooting touch is very hot, so I need you to guard against his shots and force him to dribble and break through. As long as he comes to the paint area, the rest will be handed over to our inside."

Louis pointed to the left and right sides of the paint area to Bannister and Cummings: "In principle, as long as their ball handler threatens our penalty area, you should immediately let go of your defense and assist in the first time. I would rather see them open shots than see them comfortably laying on an empty basket."

Finally, Louie said to Walker, who was obviously absent-minded: "We need to change our style of play, play more pick-and-rolls, pass more, and pass the ball up. I want to see a better dynamic offense."

Louis arranged for the referee to urge him.

This is very common with him, and he can only point it out, and the rest depends on the players' own comprehension.

Louie came up to Stockton before the start of the second quarter and said, "I hope the time you've been sitting out of the court has been meaningful."

Stockton nodded affirmatively and said: "I have basically figured out the pick-and-roll habits and offensive habits of Pat and KB."

"Very good." But it's useless, because neither of them was his long-term teammates.

Louie encouraged him, but he still couldn't make up his mind about how to make Stockton develop healthily on this terrible team.

He wants Stockton to lead the second team. The problem is that the second team does not have a reliable pick-and-roll player.

If he is allowed to lead for a while, there are many people who can cooperate with him, but he doesn't like Stockton wasting time to get in touch with this group of people, so let him sit on the bench more and focus on accumulating strength in the short term.

The Knicks attacked for the first time in the second quarter, and Darnell Walker held the ball.

If it were replaced by another coach, he might be allowed to start, but Louie made him a substitute.

Because his style of play is too reckless, not the type that Louis likes.He was naturally resentful for not being able to start the game.

The result of the grievances in his heart was that he didn't play dynamic offense as Louis asked.

He called a pick-and-roll, but he only cared about his own breakthrough, regardless of the teammates who gave him the pick-and-roll, and went to the basket and caused a foul.

A wrong attack in exchange for a fairly acceptable result.

"Darnell, do you think you spend too little time on the bench?" Louis asked.

You know, Walker is about to make a free throw.

Who has ever seen their head coach interfere with their players' free throws? MSG fans in the front row were shocked.

One of the best front seats at Madison Gardens, sat Woody Allen, whose glasses almost fell off his face as he heard what Louie said to Walker.

He straightened his glasses: "Little Lu is fine, he knows very well that the only way to succeed is to offend everyone."

The friends around him froze for a few seconds before realizing that he had made a bad joke.

Louis' reprimand did not change Walker's offensive tendency, rather, it was those words that made the latter more selfish.

Fortunately, the penetrating shot tactic used against Vinier Johnson was successful.

Sparrow is no match for Vinier, the only thing he can do is keep up with the opponent's attacking pace, sticking to the opponent's body like Siamese twins.

The hand-checking era allowed him to do more when he was close to the defense.

Vinier's strengths stand out as much as his weaknesses.

His advantage is that he is strong offensively, courageous and resourceful, but his disadvantage is that he falls into the defense of many people and is not able to find open teammates.

Therefore, although the Knicks' offense was dominated by Walker, their defensive discipline was very good. Several times they defended against Vinier's offense, causing the Pistons to suffer a 3-minute scoring drought in the second quarter.

It was these 3 minutes that made Louis' patience with Walker zero.

With the Knicks leading, he called the pick-and-roll and made a two-step pull-up from the three-point line that was off the chart.

"boom!"

Not sure if it was the effect of Truke Robinson's practice, but Bannister found the right spot, grabbed the offensive rebound, and scored on the second.

The Knicks' advantage suddenly came to 4 points.

Louie went to the technical desk with a gloomy face and asked for a timeout.

"It's so weird that Little Lu called for a timeout when the Knicks were about to start their momentum."

"Maybe it's dissatisfaction with some details on the court."

Louie replaced Wall with Stockton, "Remember what I said before the second quarter?"

"Dynamic offense?" Stockton said.

"Well, don't disappoint me," Louis said.

He replaced Stockton, and then said to Walker who had already sat down: "Darnell, I ask you to sit on the edge of the seat, and don't let me see you."

The position of the bench largely determines the player's status in the team.

The starters or the main rotation are relatively close to the coaches. As for the substitutes who can't play regular time, they all sit far away.

Now, Louie asked Walker to sit on the edge, and the intention was self-evident.

"This is my position, I will not go anywhere!" Walker fiercely resisted.

Louis smiled softly: "I don't need a player who won't play again to sit in a position where I can see at a glance."

"What do you mean?" Walker asked.

"I mean, not just this one, every next game, I won't let you play again, congratulations on getting a job that can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars without playing a game."

Walker was still afraid of Louie's authority. He didn't expect that he would be banned from playing just for a few rounds. He was so angry that he couldn't control himself for a while: "Okay! I want to see how this group of people can help you win!"

"You don't need to care about this matter. Move your butt and disappear from my sight. Don't let me say it a third time."

Unless the conflict is made public like Bernard King, Louis will not do things too extreme.

If Walker is willing to ask him to admit his mistakes next, there will still be a place for him in the Knicks' playing schedule.

If he is still as stubborn as he is now, then in the future, he will definitely "arrange" an "ideal" next home for Walker.

The No. 12 pick in the first round, only a sophomore, still has potential to be tapped, and has a certain transaction value.

Bernard King wanted to laugh but couldn't when he saw yet another teammate being sentenced to death just like him.

Walker can't play ball and still get paid. He won't earn a penny next year even if he beats shit out. What right does he have to laugh at others?
The game on the court changed a little bit, and the Pistons replaced the rookie, Antoine Kyle.

He was the No. [-] pick last year and is a very talented player in the low post.

Louis felt familiar at the first sight when he saw him. Soon, his memory turned into a blue and white Jazz jersey, an orange eyepatch, and the player who came to hug him after Jordan's shot of the century and after confirming his throne.

Kyle was one of the few non-star players Louie remembered from watching Jordan play.

After taking the field, he was given the on-field role of Parish.

Defense, rebounding, setting screens for teammates.

Just right, all things he is not good at.

His only shining moment was half a minute before he left the court.

Low against Bannister.

A lottery pick, a seventh-round pick, he deserves to be dominant.

I saw him make a beautiful turn inside, and Bannister, who was inexperienced in defense, was shaken so that he lost his center of gravity and almost knelt down.

Kyle took advantage of the situation and rushed to the basket to complete a strong dunk.

More or less, he made Louis see a little bit of Zach Randolph.

He doesn't have Randolph's bloated body, and he doesn't have Randolph's early poor work ethic. He is good at attacking.

It's a pity that the Pistons are a team that focuses on the high pass and cut system.

They don't need a strong autonomous offense on the inside. What they need on the inside must be able to rebound and defend, have shots, be able to support, and not stick to the ball.

In these few ways, Kyle is only satisfied with shooting.

His rebounding ability is extremely mediocre. In the few minutes he was on the court, Cummings and Bannister hand in hand brushed 6 offensive rebounds.

After this period, the Knicks' lead actually expanded to 8 points.

Stockton played the role of porter perfectly during this time, only passing the ball to the frontcourt, and then standing outside the three-point line at the top of the arc.

Cummings played another characteristic of him. When encountering a natural pick-and-roll master like Stockton, he can often find a comfortable position and wait to pass the ball.

With shots, offense with the ball, post-ups, and enough passes, he seems to be the best insider in the game.

Daly was quite dissatisfied with Kyle's performance. He replaced the ignorant young insider with Parish + Kent Benson to play against each other.

Louie suddenly dropped his hands and replaced Cummings and Bannister with Eddie Williams and James Bailey.

Two mediocre bigs with nothing left but strength and six fouls.

Surprisingly, even for these two insiders, Stockton can call the pick-and-roll to let them come to the line. As long as they cut in at the right time, snap, a ground-hitting pass is comfortably in place, allowing them to dunk.

"Sin, Louie."

Someone scratched his cheek with glee.

He not only took away the core figure of the Jazz for the next 20 years, but also made Karl Malone lose 5000 easy scoring opportunities out of thin air.
