Chapter 844 What kind of rotten fish and rotten shrimp is Jordan?
Louie let Chris Jackson continue to play in order to continue his good form.

Just, a little too optimistic.

Louis believes that once a drafty player like CJ is pumped up, it is difficult to guard.

But the Blazers are not an ordinary team. Their physical contact and the era bonus that allows defenders to hand-check the offensive side at will make it difficult for a shooter like CJ who is slightly smaller.

Now the Blazers have paid more attention to CJ, and the person responsible for defending him is Terry Porter, a guard who can keep up with him.

Porter is one of the most important players in the Blazers' starting five, and he is also the most stable firepower on the outside. He was blocked in just a few games against the Knicks.

This is also due to Louis' arrangement.

Louis knows how much Porter will help Jordan and Barkley if he opens up, so he has a clear emphasis on defensive arrangements.

If Curry and Lillard can be restricted in the small ball era, it is normal for CJ to be blocked in the big ball era with loose defensive rules.

Louie didn't take chances, and after seeing CJ forced a turnover by a strong double-team from the Blazers, he knew it was time to make a substitution.

On the Blazers side, in addition to replacing Porter, Barkley was also replaced.

Sir Charles, who rarely sat on the bench at the beginning of the game, has had a hard time in recent days. The Portland media criticized him, and the New York media also caught him a few days ago when he said that he wanted to win the championship at home.

So after playing today, he was as aggressive as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

Rodman originally wanted to make an offensive foul, but today, Dick Bavita and other selfish animals do not have the concept of offensive fouls in their eyes.

All fouls are defensive fouls, this is not against the Knicks, if someone in the Blazers tries to make an offensive foul, it will be the same result.

It seems selfless, but it is actually beneficial to the Blazers.

Because Barkley is a monster that no one can hold back when he rushes, making offensive fouls is one of the ways to prevent him. The referee suddenly stripped the concept of offensive fouls from the court, which is tantamount to removing a way to deal with Barkley.

One minute before the end of the first quarter, Barkley led the Blazers to lead the Knicks by 1 points.

Louis replaced CJ and returned to Stockton when Barkley hit 2+1.

"General, hold on," Louie said. "Let's get into the second quarter."

Stockton nodded, but that didn't reassure Louie.Just like at the beginning of the game, Stockton didn't see any signs of instability, but he was pressed by the Blazers and made three mistakes in a row.

Who can reason with such a thing?The coaches can only make substitutions, and Stockton has to adjust himself.

Now, the Blazers' lineup is no longer the four-forward small ball formation that puts a lot of pressure on the ball holder, but the defense against CJ has shifted to Stockton.

It stands to reason that Stockton's ability to resist pressure should be stronger than CJ. He is the Knicks player who goes to the gym most frequently, but the Blazers' defense seems to have figured out his routines.

Porter defends, Jordan assists, and Clifford Robinson cuts the passing lane.

One set after another, Stockton seemed obsessed, caught in a cycle of mistakes.

At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks trailed the Blazers by 8 points.

Louis did not replace Stockton, but handed possession of the ball to Wilson, treating Stockton as an open shooter, as long as he stood outside the three-point line at the top of the arc to open the space.

This time I didn't replace Stockton because I didn't want to hurt his self-confidence.

Since he hadn't regained his form after sitting off the court for so long just now, it won't get better if he changes again.It's better to let him empty himself, free himself from the original role of commander, start with the simplest fixed-point shooter, and slowly find the feeling.

Let Wilson handle the ball and Stockton be the shooter, which is tantamount to a replica of killing a chicken and using a sledgehammer.

After all, what Stockton is best at is organization, and Wilson usually only acts as a full-time ball handler in the murderous tight lineup. In the main lineup, he is one of the cores of offense and defense.

Since it is not his job, Louis naturally has to give guidance on the details of the game.

Stockton is a spot-up shooter. It all depends on his touch and the restraint of his teammates. The ability to restrain opportunities depends on his shooting accuracy.

Wilson was definitely not as experienced as Stockton as a commander, and Louis didn't let him match up with the latter.

"Benj, our lineup lacks offensive capabilities. I need you to create opportunities for teammates." Louis clearly drew the offensive line on the tactical board, "Starting from the left and right wings, you can call for pick-and-rolls, or you can choose singles, but don't go inside. I need you to play threats from medium and long distances, forcing them to attack you."

Wilson knew what he needed to do, and then confirmed: "Can I shoot the ball from the high post?"

"As long as you shoot correctly, you can shoot infinitely." Louie reminded, "Pay attention to the timing of your shots, and make the Portlanders terrified of your shots."

"How scared?"

"As long as you have a little shooting action, they will rush towards you like crazy as if they found out that their lover is cheating." Louis wildly compared, "That's right, you are the adulterer who cheated on their lover."

Wilson laughed; "I like this setting."

The second quarter restarted, and Lui Duo gave a few words of advice. When he turned back to the field, he found that Ewing's eyes were not right.

"What are you looking at? Have you rested enough?"

Ewing snorted softly and looked away.

When Wilson played, the score was 34 to 26. The difference of 8 points was not too big. If the Blazers had a scoring drought for a few minutes, with the Knicks' offensive ability, they might be able to recover.

But today, the Blazers' strategy is to keep the Knicks' offense from opening up.

The Knicks' starting touch is cold, which shows that their strategy has worked. Now, Miller, Ewing and others are not here, and the Blazers have killed CJ. At present, it seems that only Wilson has room to exert strength.

Riley yelled and gestured to Jordan with his eyes.

Jordan immediately understood Riley's intentions. The Blazers had possession of the ball in the second quarter. The first quarter was full. In the second quarter, the flying man singled out Wilson.

36 is better than 26
"For New York, this game may have come to the most dangerous moment! Just like the last game, the Knicks established an advantage to lock the victory before the end of the first half, and the Blazers want to do the same thing!"

Rodman, with his green hair on his head, shook the towel and shouted, "Benj, let this garbage arena be quiet!"

Seeing Rodman's hair color and the comparison he made to Wilson just now, Louis wanted to laugh inexplicably.

Wilson dribbles from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and Jordan stands on the three-point line. As long as Wilson approaches the frontcourt, what awaits him is the most aggressive single defense.

After Wilson dribbled the ball for halftime, the rhythm of advancement slowed down significantly.

As his head coach, Louie could see that Wilson was going to pull up the 2017-pointer the way Kevin Durant did against James' defense late in Game [-] of the [-] Finals.

Jordan didn't realize this.

Two meters beyond the arc top three-point line, Wilson stopped, collected the ball and shot.

Jordan's defense has reacted, but it's still too slow.

"Shh!"

Wilson's icy three-pointer drew boos from the Memorial Stadium.

He took his ball-pickling finger and blew in front of his mouth, like a cowboy who just drew a gun and shot: "Michael, if you want to guard me, isn't it a little far away to stand there?"

"Oh woo woo woo~~~" Rodman howled like a male monkey in heat, "That's what it smells like! That bastard Larry Bird is with you, my brother!"

Jordan's strength is unquestionable, and he and Sampson represent two extremes.

One is the extreme of personal ability, and the other is the extreme of offensive and defensive influence.

Jordan can dominate anyone one-on-one, and Sampson can dominate the game on both ends of the floor.This difference is brought about by the size of the players. As the core of the team, Sampson can bring at least 25 points in gains and losses, while Jordan, as the trump card, can penetrate the defense of any team.

It’s hard to say who is No.1, but those who support both Jordan and Sampson have their own reasons. Now Sampson is the most vocal, because he has a ring, and Jordan doesn’t have a ring, so he is willing to follow the teachings and give up something.

Now, the biggest enemy is right in front of him, and Wilson's provocation made him furious.

Louis doesn't think that the current Wilson is better than Jordan, and he should be a little worse than Jordan, Sampson, and Tragedian.

Because he is only 25 years old this year, it will take almost two or three years to fully reach his peak.

The 29-year-old Jordan, who is in the best period of his career, really let go of one-on-one, and Louie thinks Wilson can't match it.

However, just after Wilson shot that ball and spat out trash talk, he saw Louie so hot-headed, and there was only one thought in his mind, QTMD!I don't know until the end of the game, what kind of rotten fish and shrimps Jordan is, how many champions are there now, so embarrassing?

It was the adrenaline that came from this sudden burst of excitement that Louie acquiesced in allowing Wilson to do one of the most dangerous things on the basketball court—to piss Jordan off and go one-on-one with him.
