The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 205: Bishop's plan to bring peace to the world

The Kingdome

This is the home of the Seattle SuperSonics, who are in the Pacific Division, the most competitive division in the West.

In this division, there are four strong teams, including the Lakers, who are the first in the West, and the SuperSonics have won the third place in the competition with them.

Four or five years ago, they were the weakest championship in NBA history.

It quickly collapsed because of things other than championships.

The Celtics are here tonight just to win the game, nothing else. The SuperSonics are in a strong division, but their opponent is the Celtics in the league's strongest division.

In the warm-up session before the opening session, Louis deliberately came to the sidelines to say hello to the Celtics' best player in team history, Bill Russell.

"Bill, Reed has been talking about you a lot lately," Louie said.

Russell has no ill feelings towards Louis. Although the media speak ill of him every day, he can see the similarities between the two from Louis's words and deeds.

The only thing one cannot expect from Louie and Russell is humility.

They're crazy, and someone once asked Russell how he would deal with Kareem in the current league.

Russell was angry, and he thought the question was offensive to him.

"You should ask how Karim should deal with me."

Russell never said he was the best, but he believed in his heart that he was the best.

Louie's madness has already been reported in many newspapers. Needless to say, seeing Russell is like seeing people of the same kind.

"You guys have played well recently, and you managed to get me to order the Celtics games at home." Russell did not shy away from his disregard for the Celtics, "I haven't watched their games for a long time."

This is one of the answers Louis is looking for: "Why?"

"I'm retired."

"It's that simple?" If Louie had won 11 championships with the Celtics, he wouldn't have given up on the team in retirement.

Either way, this is what made him.

Russell laughed like reggae, and said freely: "I have Hondo after me, and Larry after Hondo. Boston doesn't need an arrogant black man."

"Boston may not need it, but I do," Louie said bluntly. "Bill, I want to ask you a favor."

※※※

After a period of warm-up, the two sides called the players off the court, the head coach said something to the main players, and the game was about to start.

Today, Louie found a random reason to let John Lang rest.

Long is the Celtics' most-reserved player, with the most minutes and running records.

Hearing the vacation, Lang was confused at first, but later Louis told him that the vacation was paid vacation, he understood and accepted it happily.

Except Ranbir imitated Thomas ignorantly and said: "Why can black people get paid vacation, and I want paid vacation!" He was almost kicked by Louis - he was just about to leave. Run away - everything is fine except this.

Danny Ainge replaced Long in the starting lineup.

Suddenly, the Celtics had more whites than blacks in the starting five.

"Pure" Boston fans will be delighted to see this skin tone arrangement.

The supersonic starter looks good.

"The Witcher" GusWilliamsPG/SG, AlWoodSG, Reggie KingSF, '80s Griffin Tom Chambers and center back play textbook Jack Hick Horse (JackSikmaC).

Before the opening, Louie also came to the midfield and the Sonics' head coach, the highly respected Lanny Wilkens, said hello.

"Coach Wilkens, I've been studying your "Coaching Handbook" recently." Louie came up and gave him a rainbow fart.

"It has benefited me a lot."

"You're flattering me, LittleLu," Wilkens laughed. "I may never be able to lead the team to 50-5."

Louie said confusedly: "If you were to bring this Celtic team, they would definitely be able to win fifty-five games in a row. I'm still too young."

"Coach Lu, don't pretend to be in front of me?" Wilkens looked like he saw through Louis, "Being too modest is not being modest."

Louie knows the effect of being too modest, disgusting.

"Okay, Coach Wilkens, let's play a good game."

Louis took the initiative to show his favor to Wilkens for no other reason. The other side was one of the few coaches who did not publicly criticize him.

Don't think it's a trivial matter. Everyone has come out to criticize Louis' momentum a while ago. If Wilkens is willing to make up for it, he will definitely attract the support of many people.

One more friend is better than one more person who doesn't like him.

Wilkens is a player-turned-coach again, and he can eat both ways. If this kind of person can get along well, it is natural to get along well.

Then came tonight's referee to say hello, referee Wally King (Wallyking white), deputy referee Ronnie Capas (black).

The NBA is the first league to focus on the balance of black and white.

Two referees, one black and one white is just right.

In Louis's impression, these two referees are relatively moderate types. They will call fouls that should be called, and they will not steal the show at critical moments. They belong to the kind of referees who let the players decide the game by themselves.

Opening, Sampson and Chambers jump ball.

This time, Chambers' explosiveness surpassed Sampson's length.

Chambers jumped with force, like a rocket, and first slapped the ball into the hands of his teammates.

This is where the game begins.

Although the SuperSonics have a textbook-like back-playing master called Hikma, they don't like to make a fuss about the low post.

Shikma's back fight is just one of their many options.

Their ball turned around for more than a dozen seconds on the outside, giving Hikma only five seconds left.

The "Wizard" doesn't seem ready to use his magic yet.

The ball goes to Shikma.

Shikma and Ranbir are both white insiders, and they have different ways of making a living.

Laimbeer relied on defending, defending rebounds, making mid-to-long-range jumpers, and angering opponents to let them have zero IQ and then use his IQ advantage to win.

However, Shikma uses flexible interior moves and the iconic Shikma step to PK opponent's defensive IQ, and he often wins.

He's in a tough situation now, with Ranbir clinging to him and not having enough time to move his feet.

He can only use a sikma step to move people, and then meet the defense hook.

The Celtics' fast break is somewhat different from the Lakers' ShowTime.

They do not seek speed, they seek stability.

So, while they have the second-highest scoring average in the league, they're averaging just 13 turnovers per game, the third-lowest in the league.

Bird grabbed the defensive rebound and passed to Thomas to advance.

Thomas broke into the frontcourt, raised his hand and threw the ball to Ainge behind him.

Angie feinted a shot, broke through and then placed Bird on the top of the arc beyond the three-point line.

Bird, who was unguarded, shot a three-pointer like a cannon.

3 to 0

Bird's three-pointer surprised fans at the Kings Arena.

Now is not the future. Fans can watch the top ten **** and five best **** or the highlights of other teams through TV or computer.

They heard the Celtics and knew Bird was having an MVP season without opponents, but they couldn't imagine how.

Now it's surprising to see Bird use the 3-pointer as a conventional weapon and use an over-hit-less follow-up 3 to hit the Celtics' first shot of the night.

The Sonics' leading player decided to respond.

"Wizard Guy" Gus Williams dribbled over and called Chambers' pick-and-roll with an epoch-making style.

He is one of the first ball-handling shooters in history to call the pick-and-roll and shoot immediately without looking at the position.

Such a ridiculous offensive option, in the eyes of a previous generation, earned him the nickname "The Wizard".

Unfortunately, his shot is very biased.

Decisive shot selection, with no retaliation.

The ball hit the neck of the basket and Bird grabbed the defensive rebound again.

This time, the Celtics' fast break is no trivial matter.

Bird grabbed the rebound, and the moment he landed, he had already found Ainge who was going down quickly, and swung a long pass with one hand under the basket.

Ainge received the ball comfortably, brought it upfield, and passed to Thomas who was following up.

Thomas took the ball in place, and Sampson rushed over like a beast.

He walks down the middle and Thomas waits for him to get into the right position to get the ball out.

The subsequent result was irreversible. Sampson plunged straight into the Supersonics penalty area, leaped and dunked with one hand.

5 to 0

"This is... Celtics ShowTime?"

CBS narrator Dick Stockton said in surprise.

"Stop ShowTime!" Commentary guest Tom Heinsohn felt a bit unlucky to have a relationship with the Lakers, "This is the 'Boston Fast Break' in the 1960s, and the Celtics are the team that carried forward the concept of fast break. , it's a pity that people now only know ShowTime!"

All non-Celtics fans need a certain amount of concentration to watch CBS broadcasts to hold back from changing channels.

Heinsohn's position is really outrageous, and this kind of eccentric guest should not be broadcast nationally.

What's even more outrageous is that it wasn't until 1988 that CBS managers came to realize that "Oh, the audience doesn't like Heinsohn, he's too much for the Celtics, we need to replace him."

Heinsohn not only praised the Celtics' fast break~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but also praised Louie's coaching ability.

"This kind of scene was unseen in the Bill Fitch era." Heinsohn was about to lose control of the Celtics' milk. "I have to admit that LittleLu is the most suitable head coach for this team."

Louis never acknowledged his credit.

Or, he thinks his credit is not here.

Rather than regrouping the Celtics, his crucial contribution to the Celtics should be recommending John Long in 1978, pushing Laimbeer in 1979, persuading Sampson to enter the draft early in 1980 and A loophole was found in the Celtics' compensation deal with the Pistons, allowing Auerbach to **** it up and get an extra first-round pick that eventually brought in Isiah Thomas.

Compared to the kind of contribution that actually laid the foundation for the Celtics to be successful in the 1980s, what does it mean to lead this Celtics to a great performance?

Unfortunately, the most important part of Louis' contribution will eventually be condensed into one sentence:

"The bishop's plan is to bring peace to the world."
