the rest, only noise

Chapter 609 A Mysterious Secret
When Louis was just an ordinary scout, he gave himself a concept-the perfect team.

He wants to know what the perfect team is, the Celtics until last year, Louie is willing to call them the only perfect team in the 80s.

After all, the four consecutive championships are the first time since the 60s.

The talented Celtics understand that they have three franchise players on their team, and others need to deeply understand this power hierarchy and cooperate with them.

Many people think that building a champion team is to accumulate the best lineup.

What the players think, and what they do on the court, doesn't matter.In other words, no one wants to pay attention to this detail. Suddenly, those teams that could not complete the defense, or were defeated in the finals, and then fell within a year, and those teams that successfully built a dynasty, why did they fail, why did they succeed, and why did they crash at the speed of light.

What all practitioners should think about seriously has become a forbidden area.

Few people do research.

Louis is very sensitive to this issue, because he is from modern times, and he witnessed the 12 Thunder flash in the pan, because of money, they did not keep Harden, which changed the history of the next eight years, and it was the reef where Durant finally left the Thunder.

The Warriors after 17 have obvious greediness, and the appearance of Green's formula makes people very excited.But they survived the law of greed and death, survived the resistance of the Rockets tailor-made for them, and achieved Leonard's conferred playoff performance in the most tragic way in history in 2019.

After crossing, he saw more things.

In the fall of the 75 Warriors, fans who know something will say that Barry is responsible for the loss, because he was beaten and had no teammates to help, so he refused to shoot in the second half.

But some people forget that the Warriors have two young stars -- Kareem Wilkes and Gus Williams -- who need to perform well to sign big contracts in the offseason.This inevitably led to a fight for the right to shoot.

The 77-1977 Blazers' fall could place the main blame on Walton's legs, but Lionel Hollins and Maurice Lucas, dissatisfied with their salaries, were the reason the 78-[-] Blazers were such a mess.

79 Supersonics, for the same reason, Dennis Johnson, who won the finals MVP, had a conflict with Gus Williams, who made a mistake for the second time.They are dissatisfied with the arrangement and contract of shooting rights.

81 The Lakers fell under the eyes of Louis. His teammates were dissatisfied with the attention the magician received, as well as his sky-high contract and internal conflicts, which ended the Lakers' season.

Almost every season a championship contender crashes itself.

So when this kind of problem appeared in Charles Oakley, Louis keenly thought, is this a problem of Oakley alone?

No one else on the Knicks has a similar idea?
Louie's eyes fell on three people who might have the same problem.

Rodman, Hornacek, John Saley.

Louie is at ease with Rodman, and he is currently satisfied with his level in the team.

He was Wilson's main backup, and Louie would let him play the four at times.

Hornacek and Sely's thoughts are hard to understand.

Playing time is not a problem for Hornacek, he can backup the [-]st position and the [-]nd position, and the playing time is only a little less than the starter.

Sely is more unique.

He plays as a backup at the [-] and [-], but Louie only uses him when he's using the murder press.

In the offseason, he kept Salley at the cost of losing Ellis and Cooper. If he had the same problems as Oakley, all he did was for nothing.

Louie gets up, with a hamburger left on his desk.

He only took one bite.

The confrontation has reached a critical moment.

The Jamaica Star asked Song Tao to replace McHale, and the Wind with Big Shoulders asked Sely to replace Oakley.

There is one thing about Sely that Louis appreciates more.

When he played in the team match, he never used those dirty moves on the court.

He can tell the difference between teammates and opponents, and he also knows who to use and what moves to make.

Hornacek, on the other hand, has none of Oakley's power grabs.

The calmness he showed in the face of Stoke suddenly made people think that they were competitors.

Rodman was aggressive and sent out big caps in a row.

The game between these two teams was very tense.

Louis said that the first to score 70 points will be considered the winner. In order to make the game reach the critical moment quickly, the defensive end deliberately lowered the intensity.

But by the time both sides scored 60 points, the action became bigger.

From 61 points, every goal is difficult.

The key man in this game is Alex Stevens.

Louis was surprised to find that Stevens developed a three-pointer from the left corner.

Looking at the statistics, he made 5 of 4 three-pointers in this game.

And, his 40-point shooting has remained above [-] percent since the start of training camp.

This change has a special meaning for him.

In the eyes of the outside world, he may be the person with the most unstable playing time and the lowest tactical status in the Knicks' entire murder pressing group.

Because his style of play is like a mad dog that is ready to bite at any time, but he is useless on the offensive end, his shots are not good, and his finishing rate at the basket is not high. He is a pure defensive player.

As a result, Louie believes he won't be drafted in an expansion draft.

In fact, Stevens matters.

He was the inspiration for the Murder Press, and Louie loved watching him play and hoped he would stay with the Knicks until his retirement.

Today, his corner three-pointer is very good.

Every time Wilson was flanked, the ball went to the bottom corner.

At the critical moment, Stevens scored two corner three-pointers in a row.

Ewing made a low-post single-handed error and was scored by Wilson for a dunk in the game-winning game.

71 is better than 66
The Wind of the Great Shoulders won by 5 points.

"Benj, Patrick, come to my office."

For the others, Louis has no specific thoughts for the time being. Ewing and Wilson are the core of the team and have the highest level of power. They should be consistent with him.

Ewing and Wilson exchanged glances before entering Louie's office.

"Did you cause trouble?" Ewing asked.

Wilson smiled and said, "I thought you caused trouble."

The two came in with questions.

They found Louie eating a cold beef burger.

"Coach, is it hard to lose weight?" Wilson wanted to start with a light topic.

"It's actually not difficult. I used diet pills from the 70s before, and it was difficult." Louis found that cold beef burgers tasted delicious, and he was really hungry.

Ewing asked, "What's the matter?"

"I asked you to come, nothing else, but something to inform you." Louis said.

When the other players heard what Louis said, they probably wondered if they had been traded.

Not Ewing and Wilson, who are sure they are tied to New York.

"Oke just made it very clear in my office that he wants to start, even if it means changing teams."

Wilson asked unexpectedly: "Is Oak going to be traded?"

"No, he will finish the season in New York." Louie mentioned Dell Ellis, who has left, "Just like Dell, he wants to leave with the ring, so try to cherish the years with Oak."

It is indeed a big event for Oakley to leave.

But Ewing didn't think it was necessary to talk to the two of them specially.

"Is there anything else?" Ewing asked.

"Patrick, you are my bosom baby."

Louis' nasty words made Ewing very uncomfortable.

Louie ate half of the beef burger and mostly finished the beef portion.

He picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, cleared his throat and said, "In my eyes, you are not great players yet, just two very talented young men who still need to work hard to find their own way in the league. But, starting today, I need you to establish your own identity."

A great team that lasts forever has someone who can build a title contender around him/them.

Russell, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bird, Magician, Jordan, O'Neal, Kobe, James, Curry. But in Louie's view, these people are iconic, and sometimes, what is needed may not be the level of superstars of the above group of people.

What Louie needs is one or two who lead by example, give their best every day on the training ground and on the court, can arouse the competitiveness of his teammates and make them better players.

"We've got 11-12 guys on the floor every night, and they're all good, and there's always someone like Oak, who wants to move up. There's nothing wrong with that, but championships are always won by teams that stick together, play hard on the defensive end, sacrifice individual success, and ignore the numbers."

Louis looked at Ewing and Wilson seriously.

"I want you two to lead by example."

"Don't answer me, this matter, what I need is not your answer, but practical action."

"Go."

Ewing believes that he can complete the indicators provided by Louis, because he does his best every day.

Wilson felt that his current performance was not enough to accomplish what Louis said.

Only when he fully surrenders himself on the court will other people be impressed by him.

With this thought in mind, he secretly made up his mind.
