Chapter 899 Why am I afraid of it, Samuel Jackson Jr. of New York

Chapter 900 I am New York Samuel L. Jackson Jr. and why am I afraid of it

Lambiel had to retire due to injury, and Rodman got a second-level flagrant foul.

This result is unfavorable to the Knicks, but Louis did not raise objections.

The fist that Rodman turned around and hit Lambiel was too conspicuous, and it happened right in front of the referee's eyes. It would be a pity for the league's new rules not to give him a second-level criminal to clear up court discipline.

To be able to apply the new rules to a thorny body like Rodman is a correct demonstration for the referee.

Second-degree criminals were born for the Rodmans.

After Lambiel left the field, the Celtics had nothing to do.

From a sensory point of view, Louis feels that Bird and Sampson are too difficult. They are the two best pitchers of the Celtics. When they are both on the court, the Celtics can still rely on extremely sophisticated tactical design to maximize the value of the least space points.

The most typical Celtics-style offense is the L tactic left over from the Louis era. One of Sampson or Bird attracts the running position, and the other weak side restrains it.

This is a typical Celtics offense, through the containment of star players to give role players a chance to eat cakes.

Their style of play may have been advanced in 1984.

But now, Louie's N.UCLA system and the New York gang have brought the league into the era of high-post offense.

The Blazers absorbed the essence of the Knicks, and Riley's football strategy has greatly led the league's team building indicators.

Then there are guys like Don Nelson, leading the run and gun, eager to crack unsolvable defenses with unsolvable offenses.

The Celtics are a remnant of the old era. In the new era, there is no captain to lead them forward. Therefore, only the Celtics can often play such an offense.

But this kind of L offense can’t be done every round. The sacrifice of star players is exchanged for the scoring opportunities of role players. The fault tolerance rate is too low, and there can be no problems in every link. Once they encounter a team like the Knicks, which is terribly fast in assisting defense, as long as they are willing enough, they can make up for the loopholes on the defensive end through rotation.

Because Isiah Thomas isn't here anymore.

As long as the tactics fail, the Celtics need to use the personal abilities of the players to support the offense.

Those rounds that cannot be derived with exquisite off-ball interspersed running can only be handed over to stars for singles.

In the era of the Big Three, this is no problem.

Now, the Sri Lankan has gone west. Under normal circumstances, Bird has the level of an All-Star. He is in good condition and has the offensive ability of a superstar, but Sampson is the only one who can maintain stability throughout the process.

In the opening game against the Knicks, Sampson and Bird performed well enough. Whenever the game was approaching garbage time, someone could stand up and throw those unreasonable balls.

Bird in the first quarter, Sampson in the second, Sampson in the third, Sampson and Bird in the fourth.

Sampson deserves to be the league's No. 80 center in the 90s and [-]s. He took all his shots, whether they were opportunities or opportunities that were not opportunities.

Even if GOAT and the league's No. [-] center work hard, all they can do is make the Celtics lose decently.

The game eventually became a scoring game between Wilson and Ewing.

Ewing said he wanted to become the team's scoring leader, and Wilson said he wanted to become the league's scoring leader.

As a result, the two took 22 shots and scored 36 points, and the other took 30 shots and scored 44 points.

Wilson's score was better, but Ewing's efficiency was better.

119 is better than 108
The Knicks beat the Celtics by 11 points.

At the end of the game, Sampson sat on the floor gasping for breath.

Although Bird scored 30 points, he could only help Sampson share the offensive pressure.

Sampson needs to balance both offense and defense. Facing Ewing's fierce offensive, he scored 39 points on the offensive end to beat Ewing. On the defensive end, he had 16 rebounds and 4 blocked shots. All the statistics covered Ewing.

"Good job, Ralph." Louie hugged Sampson at the end of the game.

Sampson patted Louis on the shoulder: "Coach, I don't know where the road is."

"How do you say that, Ralph?" Louis asked.

Sampson said bitterly: "I hope to die in Boston, but this team has lost its competitiveness. Although I have won 5 championships, I am still young. I still have a lot of energy. I don't know what I will get if I continue to stay here."

"As long as you want to leave, the alliance is so big, you can go anywhere." Louis said, "The premise is that you really want to leave."

"After 1988, I lived in pain because I couldn't win a championship and my game became a meaningless numbers game."

The bewilderment in Sampson's heart was stronger than Louis thought.

As a player who can rewrite the league structure, if Sampson wants to leave to join other teams, he will definitely rewrite the existing territory.

"Don't you wish you had more numbers for yourself?"

Louis thinks data is a good thing, it is like red wine, the longer it is, the more mellow it becomes.

If you don't believe me, just look at Chamberlain.

The stats he collected were never appreciated by that generation in his player days. Now, as long as there are high-potential centers entering the league, everyone will compare him with Chamberlain, as if Chamberlain is the most dominant center in history.

Therefore, data is a good thing. Even if the person concerned dies, the data will still live in a unique way.

"The better the stats I get in the game, the sadder it is for me, and it seems to me that there is no end to this kind of life."

"Think about Larry, Ralph." Louie comforted, "The bumpkins haven't given up yet. It's too early for you to say that."

If Louie were Sampson's agent, or his father, he would definitely advise Sampson to leave that crappy place in Boston immediately.

From 1988 to the present, he has wasted the best five years of his career.

It's not just his loss, it's the basketball world's loss, and it's his own loss.

If Sampson had the lion heart of King James, knew how to choose at critical moments, and did not miss the old feelings, left the Celtics in the summer of 1989 and joined the Lakers, for example, what would happen?The Knicks' first four champions in the Louis era may lose one or two.

Even if it is all inclusive, there will be a few rounds of finals that are as tragic as last season.

Sampson wasn't realistic enough, not snobby enough, smart enough, cold enough, and he didn't realize until now that he was wasting his time, which really made Louie worry about him.

But as the head coach of the Knicks, he cannot let Sampson, a power that changes the league structure, run around, so he should stabilize him first.

Seeing Louis and Sampson chattering for a long time, Bird came over and scolded, "Ralph, what do you have to say to him?"

"You know, Coach Lu is a very long-winded person."

Or how can we say that like attracts like?Sampson decisively sold Louis, which Louis did not expect.

"Ralph, I forgive you this time." Louis rolled his eyes at him, looked at Bird, and asked casually, "How is your back?"

Bird said arrogantly: "It's not a problem to play until the age of 40."

"Don't play until you are 40 years old, what will you do when you play the Celtics at 40 years old?"

"What do you mean?"

"Can't you see it?" Louis smiled, "You two have become a burden to Boston's reconstruction."

"QNMD!"

Louie's words were not pleasant, but as long as Bird calmed down, he knew he was right.

The reason why the truth is hard to hear is because it is hard to hear.

Although Bird's injuries were not as good as in his previous life due to the butterfly effect brought by Louis, the situation of the Celtics did not improve because of this.

His career got better because of Louie.

Also because of Louis, the Celtics are suffering at this time.

After Louis finished speaking with them, he went to accept an on-site interview.

"Does the season opener feel any different than last season?" asked NBC's frontline reporter Ahmed Rashad.

"It's not different, I just feel it would be better if we played the opener at home."

"Oh why?"

Bostonians wouldn't like Louie's answer, but he had to say it anyway.

"That way, we can watch a new flag go up and receive championship rings in front of the Celtics."

Since 1988, Louie has had no relationship with Boston.

Although Auerbach expressed his understanding of his actions, there were not many people who could really understand him except for this sensible old man.

On his way back to the locker room, Louie ran into Celtics executive vice president Dave Gavitt.

I heard that, if not necessary, Auerbach basically stays in Washington, D.C. now.

Although he is the president of the team in name, Gavitt is in charge of the team's affairs.

"Coach Lu, congratulations on winning the game."

The misunderstanding between Louie and Gavitt is over.

It was his longtime friend Jane Walker who was trying to figure Louie out of the Chris Jackson trade.

Walker's cleverness brought disaster to the Celtics and ruined his future in this industry.

Now, Volker has faded out of professional basketball.

"No, I should thank you for letting us win this game." Louis said humorously, "If the defending champion loses in the first game of the new season, it won't sound good to spread the word."

"You guys really deserve a beating!"

Gavitt gave Louie a small punch.

Louie held a grudge against Gavitt for a while, but they're okay now and became good friends while on the Dream Team.

Because Louis has repeatedly helped Gavitt to stabilize the interest disputes between the players and the Basketball Association, avoiding him being unhappy at both ends.

"I still have something to do. Goodbye." David hurried away.

"Pay attention to the road, be careful of slippery ground." Lu Yi smiled, "There are traps in the garden."

"Reed should scold you again after hearing you say that."

"Let that old guy come, what does my little Samuel L. Jackson of New York fear of him?"
