the rest, only noise

Chapter 584 The rest is just noise

Jordan tried -- mind you, tried to -- turn his back and drive to the hoop for a dunk.

He played so suffocated that the Knicks forbade him from doing anything with the ball.

The only way to vent his anger is dunking, and he can't wait to unscrew the rim.

When he turned around, he could see the technical content hidden in it. People who did not have absolute confidence in their own skills could not do this action.

Jordan successfully got rid of Rodman, the basket was in front of his eyes, and it only took three steps to complete the dunk. The first step was forward, then the jump, and finally the dunk.

Wilson flew out from the weak side suddenly, his long arm reached the height of the basket first, swung down, probably trying to block the shot, but missed the ball.

Jordan dodged the block.

Judging from the results, it was not completely avoided.

Wilson's hand slapped him in the face after failing to block the cap.

It was a loud "snap"!
The moment he landed, Jordan lost his mind and swung his hand towards Wilson's face. It was already hard to tell whether it was a slap, or simply hitting Wilson's cheek with his hand.

Wilson removed Jordan's hands, and the two of them were face to face, mouth to mouth swearing at each other.

Seeing this scene, Louis scratched his head helplessly.

The way the Blazers responded to provocations or blows was immature.

They did dare to fight back, but what to do after they fought back?they do not know.

For the Knicks, it's like turning the page after finishing the work, no longer thinking about the conflict just now, and playing when it's time to play.

The Blazers mentality is close to collapse.

The conflict between Jordan and Wilson occurred at the end of the third quarter.

The result of this conflict was that Wilson was called a technical foul—two Ts added together, expelled—and ended.

At this point, the expulsion of one Wilson no longer affects the overall situation.

After the game, Wilson stayed in the game with 10 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.

Data is average, not essential.

Because when the Knicks are attacking, Wilson is often marked by Jordan.He is the player Jordan hates the most. Once Jordan wants to guard someone to death, he can often succeed. Even with the cover of the Knicks' N.UCLA system, Wilson is very uncomfortable to be guarded by him.

Moreover, Louie did not specifically design tactics for Wilson and asked him to challenge Jordan in large numbers.

He likes seeing Wilson do nothing on Jordan's defense, it helps him grow.

Similarly, Jordan didn't play well tonight.

Under the restrictions of Jordan's rules, after three quarters, he only scored 15 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.

The score on the court was 80 to 59.

With a gap of 21 points, entering the fourth quarter, the Blazers' hope of winning is getting smaller and smaller.

In the fourth quarter, the Knicks' first offense.

The ball was given to Ewing, and the Blazers gave up the double-team and let James Edwards defend alone.

At this time, Ewing, who had scored 18 points, 16 rebounds and 8 assists, was working hard for his second triple-double in the finals.

If the Blazers don't flank, he will play singles.

Under Louis' command, he usually doesn't have many opportunities for singles, and he depends on the opportunities given by the Blazers.

Ewing dribbled a step forward with the ball, stopped, collected the ball and picked it up, which was not a realistic fake move, shaking his opponent—Edwards jumped up, but was dodged by Ewing, picked up the ball with his left hand, and hit the board.

"Although the footsteps are very formulaic, it is enough to play the inside line of Edwards' level." Louis stretched out his hand, waiting for Ewing to clap his hands.

Ewing got excited and slapped Louis' hand hard.

"Yeah!" Louie's hands hurt from being patted, "Even if you want to win the FMVP, don't be so excited!"

Zhao Yuanzheng reminded Louis: "Patrick scored 20 points."

"Another 20+15?" Louis asked unexpectedly.

"There are 8 assists and 5 blocks." Zhao Yuanzheng sighed, "It's really a dominant performance, even Bill Russell back then, it's nothing more than that!"

Louis couldn't hear others bragging about Ewing: "Hmph, it sounds like you've seen Russell play!"

"I haven't watched it, but someone in our team really played against Russell." Zhao Yuanzheng secretly glanced at Phil Jackson.

"Oh, what did Phil say?"

"He said Patrick was ten times stronger than Russell."

"Just listen to him!" Louis couldn't hear such words anymore, "Where did that guy come from?"

At this time, Ewing slapped Drexler's layup.

He was like a beast, chasing the ball and flying out.

"Fuck!"

Ewing flew to save the ball, and Stockton passed it to Rodman who was about to come down.

Rodman went on a fast break, dunked and scored 12 points.

"Are you okay?" Louis asked.

Ewing shouted excitedly: "Ten more falls will be fine!"

"What is Patrick's current average per game?" Louis really felt that Ewing was the FMVP.

Zhao Yuanzheng said directly: "Not counting this game, Patrick averaged 18 points, 16 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks in the first three games of the final."

"It's interesting. It's not enough to compare with Russell, but it can still be compared with another center named Bill who won the FMVP."

Louis has reservations about whether the Blazers are too weak inside or Ewing is too strong.

But tonight's Ewing is indeed dominant.

This may be the first time in the playoffs that he has fulfilled people's expectations of him in the three years since he entered the industry.

Although Louie despised Ewing verbally, in his heart, Bill Russell really made Bill Russell come to the present age, and he would not play better than the current Ewing.

The era is different and there is no comparison, but Ewing, as a center based on Russell as a template, played the best game he can play at this stage.

He locked down the restricted area alone.

Jordan's law made it difficult for Jordan to get close to the basket, and the glider desperately hit the iron from a long distance.

The only thing left for the Blazers is the speed of returning to defense.

They haven't given up yet, so they returned to defense very quickly.

At this time, 84 to 59, the difference between the two sides was 25 points.

Drexler's strike, and its aftermath, may be more than just a statistical missed shot.

The Blazers retreated quickly, and Stockton led the fast break with the ball.

Ewing ran along the middle to follow up.

Stockton stopped outside, and a second later, Ewing went straight down from the top of the arc, and he raised his hand for the ball.

There is no need to doubt Stockton's pass.

The ball was given to Ewing, and he didn't need to adjust. He stepped on the paint and jumped with all his strength, like an orangutan jumping with all his strength. Larry Nance tried to stop him.

Ewing swung the ball with his long arms to completely suppress his body, and the most humiliating dunk that Nance had ever encountered in his career fell on his head.

Boom!
Joe Crawford's icing on the whistle gave Ewing's perfect dunk a moment of celebration and whooping.

"It's over." At that moment, Louis decided that the outcome had been decided.

Ewing clenched his fists and screamed to the sky.

In an instant, the Memorial Stadium became a zoo, with a gorilla screaming wantonly on the field.

When Ewing hit an additional penalty, Adelman requested a timeout.

With less than 8 minutes left, the Blazers trailed by 28 points.

In this era when everyone doesn't shoot three-pointers very much, the fourth quarter is not full and 28 points behind is like being sentenced to death after 8 minutes.

Regardless of whether the Blazers change their main players or not, Louis will change.

He left Ewing to record a triple-double on the court, and the other four players were Hornacek, Stevens, Rodman, and Song Tao.

The Blazers replaced half of the main force.

Jordan was still on the court, and Louie specifically told Stevens to give Jordan some extra attention and inform Ewing: "If he wants to come to the penalty area to score, I don't care whether the goal is scored or not. Bringing him down is still the only indicator."

Ewing and Jordan are very good friends in private. Now that they have beaten the Blazers so badly, and the outcome has been decided, they feel very sorry to hear Louie's words.

"is this necessary?"

"Do you think my expression looks like I'm discussing with you?"

"Not like."

"Then don't fucking talk nonsense, he missed a layup once, I'll fuck you to death!" Louie threatened like a villain.

It was Louie's most controversial decision in the 1988 Finals.

In the meaningless garbage time, the Blazers asked Jordan to play for a while, in order to let him get good-looking statistics.

But Louis didn't give him a chance to swipe his data.

Stevens defended closely regardless of fouls, and Ewing also blocked shots with heavy hands regardless of fouls.

They played like a stalemate in the main game, and letting Jordan score would allow the Blazers to overtake.

In the round that angered the fans the most, Ewing blocked the road ahead, Jordan slipped, and Stevens attacked from the flank, hugged Jordan in the middle and threw him to the outside, throwing him three to four meters.

"OMG~~!!!"

"That's the biggest boo I've ever heard!"

"Portlanders hate the Knicks!"

"Stevens' move is too big!"

"He's still provoking MJ!"

After throwing Jordan in the arms, Stevens yelled fiercely: "You don't want to come to the penalty area to score!"

"This is a group of thugs!" Bill Sheneri, an announcer at the Memorial Stadium, said angrily. "They don't intend to show any respect to their opponents!"

It's obviously garbage time, everyone is swiping data, but Jordan is still suffering.

Phil Jackson really wanted to know what Louie was doing.

"Coach Lu, do you have any personal grievances with MJ?"

"Actually, we had a good personal relationship before the finals." Louis laughed dryly, "Now, well, you understand."

Jackson asked puzzledly, "Then what is your purpose for doing this?"

"If you have to find a purpose."

At that moment, Louis' expression was horrifying, and Jackson saw a perverted smiling face: "I'm just enjoying the feeling of stepping on this awesome guy."

His unabashed complacency, his hideous intent to profit from the suffering of others, convinced Jackson.

He's really enjoying it.

"Don't you think MJ just lacks a proper trainer and 20 pounds of muscle?" Jackson asked. "Once he has those, he's going to be our biggest problem."

"I knew, and I knew better, that he was going to get this," Louie said.

Now, Jackson didn't understand even more.Knowing that Jordan's future will be terrible, but still offending him so much, why?

He didn't understand, just like Louis himself didn't know why he tortured Jordan so much and forced him to become stronger.

If you insist on why, there may be only one answer.

He hopes to beat the strongest Jordan;

He hopes that the Jordan of the future will be ten times stronger than today. He hopes that one day, the world will understand how strong Jordan is, and what kind of team he controls when he suppresses Jordan;
He hopes that all who seem to rule the league will eventually be defeated at his knees;
He wants to dominate these things. If there is a reason why he does these things, then this is the answer.

He likes to destroy these strongest individuals, enjoys the process of ravaging them, and the result of their ultimate failure.It doesn't get any funnier than that.

Five minutes before the end, the Blazers replaced Jordan.

After that, Louie changed players at will, and he was not replaced until Ewing scored a 24+20+10+7 Duncan quasi-quadruple double.

The quality of the Blazers' bench is not at the same level as that of the Knicks, so the point difference is still increasing.

The fans left the stadium in large numbers because there was no point in staying here.

Half a minute before the end of the game, Louis let Dale Ellis, who had entered the activation list but never played, took off his uniform.

"I always feel that it is unfair to you not to let you feel the atmosphere of the finals."

Louie patted Ellis on the shoulder.

"Go ahead, we wouldn't be here without you."

In this way, the Knicks have all thirteen players on the activation list tonight.

20 seconds before the end of the game, Dell Ellis ran his most familiar high-post dynamic offensive tactics and scored his first three-pointer in the finals.

With 19 seconds left, the Blazers gave up their offense.

5——4——3——2——1。

Darrell Garretson blew the final whistle, 119 to 81, the Knicks beat the Blazers by a big score, swept the opponent 4-0 in the away game, and won the third championship in team history.

There were insults, popcorn flying all over the sky, and all kinds of food that Louis couldn't name.

The hateful boos made Louis unable to hear the cheers of the team members clearly.

That's what winning away from home deserves.

They won, and that's what matters.

The rest is just noise.
