the rest, only noise

Chapter 352 Don't Listen to That Man's Nonsense

Ewing didn't break out of the center's poor play routine at the All-Star Game in Dallas.

Played 11 minutes and scored 8 points and 4 rebounds.

During the All-Star weekend, no transactions occurred.

At this time, the NBA does not have the concept of a trade deadline like in the future. All teams tend to be conservative and do not want to make a big move before the playoffs.

Louis was expecting someone to call his office to discuss the deal, but in the end, no call came.

He is not used to taking the initiative to make calls, and it is a test of eyesight to find someone to make a deal directly.

You have to know who is an idiot. Although Louis already has a list of "idiot general managers" in his hands, he is always passive when he takes the initiative.

He is more used to having people come to him.

As long as the other party takes the initiative, Louis can raise the price at will. Although it may not be successful, he will definitely not suffer in the end.

A boring All-Star weekend, plus a lackluster trade deadline.

After the vacation, the Knicks' first opponent in the rematch is the Los Angeles Lakers, the kings from the West.

This is the first time they have played against each other this season, and the Knicks are playing away.

If you want to say which team is most affected by Louis, the traverser, it must first be the Chicago Bulls. They lost the opportunity to own the goat.

The second is the Lakers. In the 80s, the Hukai struggled for hegemony. The Magician's Lakers were originally the stronger side.

Now it is the weak side that is making trouble.

The Celtics not only have the No.1 Bird in the league, but also have Sampson, the second player in the league, and Isiah Thomas, the top five in the league.

The Lakers are full of plans, with only one magician in the top five in the league and Wilkins in the top ten in the league.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is watching Ben turn 40 years old. When he has physical strength, he still looks like a superstar. If he has no physical strength, he is a shooting star.

At the Forum, Dionne Warwick sang the American national anthem.

The Knicks have been taking sneak peeks at the Lakers baby.

As the first team in NBA history to have a cheerleading team, the members are very particular about political correctness.

The number of blacks and whites is equal, and the figure and appearance cater to the tastes of all kinds of people.

"I like the one in the middle, it's hot enough!" Oakley said lewdly, "She's still smiling at me!"

Louis glanced at it and felt that there might be something wrong with Oakley's aesthetics. The black girl had a big head, a small body and a flat chest. Although she had a good face, her hardware stretched her hips, which was as disappointing as Jason Kidd's shooting.

"I still like the tallest one, she still has breasts, wow, look at the quality of the cheerleaders!"

They discuss what the Lakers girl looks like, and Louie searches for his friends in the audience.

Sure enough, she still came.

Today, though, Jennifer Beals still looks like a Lakers supporter.

After the national anthem was sung, Louis said hello to the Lakers star fans including Jennifer.

"Coach Lu, how much do you plan to lose today?" Eddie Murphy, a New Yorker, blatantly stood on the side of Los Angeles.

Louie said modestly: "I'm here to win."

Jennifer asked, "How did you win?"

"Yeah, does it depend on Patrick?" Murphy said disdainfully, "He is obviously a balloon that was blown out, and Dominic's dunk will make him burst!"

A few other stars that Louie couldn't recognize agreed.

Murphy is undoubtedly one of the five hottest actors in the world at this stage in 1986.

So he can play an unanimous role among the stars.

Louis returned to his bench area and gave serious instructions before the game started.

Tonight, the Knicks start with the regular five, while the Lakers start with Magic, Michael Cooper, Wilkins, Rambis, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

From the perspective of the lineup, the Lakers now do not have the depth of pulling out a star from the bench before.

Losing to the Celtics in the finals for two consecutive years has dealt a heavy blow to their long-term plans, and they don't know what to do to compete with the Celtics.

After all, the Celtics' bench is not good, but they have three young, powerful and unsolvable super giants.

Looking at them, Louie felt that if the Blazers had an inside beast that could match Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, or had a strong rebounder, the Lakers might not even be able to deal with this newly emerging team.

Now, their future is all in the magician's body.

How much he can grow and how good he can become determines the upper limit of the Lakers.

From the data point of view, the magician averaged 19 points, 8 rebounds and 12 assists per game this year, but he has a stat that Louis is very concerned about-averaging 2.4 three-pointers per game and hitting 1 goal.

Another product of the Lu-style butterfly effect, the magician practiced three-pointers a few years in advance.

Tonight's judges, Louie also likes very much, are John Vanak (John Vanak) and Tommy Nunez (Tommy Nunez Sr.), two kind-hearted old men who enjoy a good reputation in the industry.

This kind of referee will blow the home whistle, but he can't bear the pressure from the coach.

They will make the home team happy first, then be pressured by the opposing coach, and then blow a few balance whistles, and the result is that both sides are not satisfied with the game process.

But strictly speaking, it must be the visiting team that makes a profit.

After all, it is a recognized unspoken rule that the home team has the home whistle, otherwise everyone is desperately trying to get home advantage.

"What should be said, I have said it, and I will say it again now."

"If Maggie wants to shoot, you can let him shoot freely. This is his home court, can you be more polite? But if he wants to break through, you can't let him succeed even if you put him on the ground. Although this is their home court, we are here to do this."

Louie's understanding of "politeness" is obviously different from everyone else's.

"Pay attention to the situation. If there is no chance to get an offensive rebound, then retreat in time. Don't forget, Maggie likes those idiots who are greedy for offensive rebounds, because he knows that as long as he gets the back rebound, Show Time can be opened smoothly!"

Finally, Louie took out the tactical board and drew four positions: "Karim takes the ball in the low post on the left, pinches directly, and don't worry about anything; if he takes the ball in the low post on the right, force him to go left; Maggie's three-point shooting rate at the top of the arc is very high, but you can try it out and let him shoot a few shots.

Louie draws a circle at a high point where something could happen.

"Defending this point requires everyone to work together."

The only person Louis didn't arrange was Dominique Wilkins. The reason why he didn't arrange it was because he couldn't think of how to defend when Wilkins had already practiced mid-range shooting.

None of the starters can match up, so just ignore it.

If you have the ability, you Wilkins will kill me.

Opening the jump ball, the young Ewing called Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to know that time makes people old.

In order to prevent Kareem Abdul-Jabbar from winning the opening ball in each quarter, Auerbach once proposed the "Jabbar Rule" (the result of the opening jump ball determines the possession of the ball in the next three quarters), because without this rule, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's team would have the opening ball in each quarter.

Now, young people often win the ball over him.

Ewing patted the ball into Stockton's hands.

Stockton dribbles at the top of the arc, and the man guarding him is Magic.

Louie glanced at Riley, what a snobbish guy.

This pairing highlights a snobbery.

Cooper went to pester Ellis and the Magic defended Stockton, making perfect use of the defensive viscosities of these two.

Magic can't guard against small guards, and it happens that Stockton is a small and slow guard, and it will be difficult to face a big and fast guard like Magic.

Several other counterpoints followed suit.

At first, Louis thought they would let Wilkins or Cooper play against Stockton, but now they let the magician play, which shows that they did not pay attention to the offensive ability of the historical assist king.

The Knicks opened the 1-4 position directly.

Classic UCLA offense, with Stockton holding the ball, and Ewing and Oakley's well-defined pick-and-roll.

But Stockton's offensive intention is not to go inside, but to run the ball.

Ewing's pick-and-roll hooked the Magic firmly, and Stockton passed the ball to Campbell on the wing.Then, Stockton ran back around Ewing's back screen.

Ewing's body locked on to Magic's pace for the second time, and Stockton ran into the empty lane and caught a pass from Campbell for an empty basket.

A classic "PNR Motion" tactical attack.

Louis stood on the sidelines and said to the magician, "Maggie, how are you going to compete for the championship with those beasts in Boston?"

Seeing that Louis was bewitching the crowd again, Riley hurriedly shouted, "Erwin, don't listen to that man's nonsense!"

Louis shouted to the magician's back: "Maggie, you know what I mean."
