MTL - The Rest, Only Noise-v2 Chapter 1509 Ewing is still a good teammate.
Louis vetoed Yao Yueban's weight gain plan. This raises a new problem.
"Where on the court should Yao be the centerpiece if he doesn't gain weight?" Lambiel asked.
Although Yao Yueban averaged 22 points and 9 rebounds per game in his rookie season, the proportion of independent offenses was not high.
The presence of Gasol greatly reduces the difficulty of his scoring.
Since Gasol's positioning is to deal cards and shoot from a high position, Yao Yueban can get a lot of cakes. At the same time, he also has a pick-and-roll to break up shooting opportunities, so it is not difficult to score.
Yao Yueban is the most stable end point for the Celtics, and the team's opportunity creators are actually Sprewell, Gasol and Brian Knight.
He won't be dominant in the post without gaining weight. At the same time, he can't become the axis of offense through high position support like Gasol. With a smile on his face, Louis said something that surprised everyone: "Our core is not in the formation."
This sentence is clearly visible like a silver needle falling to the ground. Even Auerbach's complexion changed slightly.
This is tantamount to fundamentally denying the core potential of Yao Yueban and Gasol and others.
Especially Yao Yueban, a super insider who has been hyped by the major media for four years, and averaged 22+9 per game in the first year, how could he not be the core? Thomas hesitated, "I don't quite understand what you mean."
"What I mean is very simple." Louis said, "If winning the championship is our ultimate goal, then none of the people on the roster meet the core standards. Including Yao and Paul, they have the ability to become the second and third in the championship team. number one, but not number one."
Some people wonder whether it is too early to draw conclusions.
Both Yao Yueban and Gasol have just finished their rookie years, and they still have a long time to prove whether they are the material.
If Louis was an unfounded person, making such an evaluation would be refuted in public.
Now, no one has come forward to ask questions.
When Louis made a conclusion on a certain event, everyone would accept it and think about where the conclusion came from and why it was correct.
As for "could it be wrong"? Of course it is possible, but no one thinks about it.
This is the effect of authority.
Lambiel asked for the crowd: "So, what's our next step?"
"Since we don't have a core, we should play team basketball," Louie said. "Not only should we play to the strengths of Yao and Paul, but also let everyone else participate. We have to start from the collective and let the league realize that our collective has How much power, and then let those stars who want to win the championship find that everything is here, only one superstar is missing."
The meeting is over, no results today.
Louie gave them a week to prepare. We're going to have a second meeting here next week.
Lambiel was stopped by Louis before leaving.
Louis handed him a document, "When we meet next week, tell us what's in the document."
Lambiel glanced at the document and found that there were a lot of techniques and tactics... "Isn't it good for you to say it yourself?" Lambiel said helplessly.
Louis said: "After all, I am the president. This is Isiah's team. You are his chief assistant, so please do more."
As soon as Lambiel collected the materials, thinking about Thomas' usual appearance, he really wondered how much he could use Louis's document by then?
Before leaving, Lambiel said with a smile: "Coach, when will you come back?"
"What nonsense, Isiah did a good job!"
Lambiel showed no mercy to his old teammates: "As long as the head coach is Isiah, we will not be able to win the championship."
After speaking, Ranbir left.
Louis and Auerbach had lunch at a nearby restaurant.
Auerbach talked about the core theory at the meeting, "Do you really think that Yao can't be the core of the championship team?"
"I mean, he
It cannot be the absolute core that controls everything. "
Auerbach thought he had been playing basketball all his life, but he didn't dare to judge Yao Yueban's performance in the first year that he couldn't become the core of the championship team.
Louie dared.
But Auerbach couldn't refute him.
"Maybe your judgment is right, but you should know that the Celtics' biggest problem is the coaching staff." Auerbach smiled lightly, "Isaiah is not a competent coach."
Louis said tolerantly: "It's okay, there are not so many good coaches in the world."
Auerbach did not believe that Louis would pin his hopes on Thomas. He must be suffocating bad water.
It's just that it's useless to say more now, the Celtics are in an important stage of reconstruction.
They have a good lineup, but can't find a way forward. A week later, the Celtics held a second internal meeting for the new season's style of play.
At the meeting, Lambiel came up with an amazing document.
He prepared three tactical systems for the Celtics in the file. They are the continuity offense (ContinuityOffense), the weak side block cutting through the top attack (), and the flex offense (Flex0ffense).
The beauty of these three systems is that everyone on the field can be mobilized, and at the same time, a higher status is given to the ball holder, but the weight of the ball holder's status on the field mainly depends on personal ability. Those with strong abilities have higher self-confidence, and those with insufficient abilities consciously follow tactics.
If these three tactical systems can be used proficiently, the Celtics' game will be transformed successfully. With the basic set, the rest is to wait for an absolute core player to join.
Ranbir was a blockbuster.
Apart from surprise, everyone was more suspicious.
Because Lambiel usually does not seem to have such a deep tactical literacy, why did he become a tactical master after only one week, providing the team with three feasible new systems.
Van Gundy and Budenholzer, who had been with Louis, smelled the "shooting star" tactics from these three new systems.
Especially the position where the ball is launched to attack, isn't it the classic "whale landing point"?
Smart people know who is planning behind it, only a fool would say to Lambiel with satisfaction: "Bill, if you work for a few more years, maybe you can also carry out the plan."
taught.
The person who said this was Celtics head coach Isiah Thomas.
With a godfather like Louie strategizing, and a crouching dragon like Lambiel beside him, Thomas felt that he was the next Hall of Fame coach.
While Thomas fantasized about the future, the NBA playoffs were still underway.
The semifinals are the highlight, especially in the East.
The top five compete for hegemony, and the East has the top three, so whenever they reach the semifinals, there will be a strong showdown.
This time, the duel took place between the 76ers and the Knicks. This year's 76ers are more reasonable than last year's lineup.
In the offseason, they sent Sam Cassell and a first round to the Clippers, who were actively struggling, in exchange for Robert Horry and veteran Dan Marley. However, compared with last year, the Knicks have also strengthened severely.
Chris Webber made the Knicks' fourth position no longer a weakness, and, when he met O'Neal, Webber's fighting spirit simply skyrocketed.
Because it was O'Neill who abandoned him and joined forces with Benj in Philadelphia. In addition to Webber, the Knicks selected two rookies Zach Randolph and Dalembert last year to enrich the strength of the bench.
Coupled with the rise of the all-around striker James Posey, paired with the seasoned Stockton, Miller, and Ewing, and assisting the flanks of McGrady and Hill, it can be said that they are the team with the highest upper limit on paper in the East.
After the first three games, the Knicks lead 2-1.
For the 76ers, the 35-year-old Benjamin Wilson averaged 34 points per game and still couldn't control the situation.
O'Neal is completely different from the insiders he has partnered with in the past. Especially the playoffs.
Ewing, Garnett, Duncan
They don't care about personal offenses in the playoffs. They will do more off-ball movements and use a lot of pick-and-rolls, screens, and blocks to help teammates.
O'Neal has no interest in this kind of thing, the only thing he wants is to get in the low post and destroy the opponent's paint.
This makes Wilson very tired. He can score 34 points per game just by shooting, but he can't touch the sparks with O'Neal. defensive weakness.
Ga4
The Knicks' roll call made O'Neal's mentality unbalanced. The old Ewing played 34 minutes like a rejuvenated child, scoring 15 points, 10 rebounds and 6 blocks.
The Knicks lead the 76ers 3-1.
No one thought that the Philadelphia 76ers, led by GOAT and currently the number one center, might be defeated in the semifinals of the playoffs for two consecutive years.
"Being eliminated from the back position in the playoffs for two consecutive years, 1-4 without dignity, Benjamin Wilson has no achievements in the absence of a super team-such a person, he deserves to sit in the dog position Is it?” —Boston Globe.
The media in the New England area collectively celebrated the New Year, calling Bird's soul one after another, completely forgetting the fact that Bird also did not make any achievements in the playoffs in the last five years.
The night the 76ers were eliminated, Louie didn't even watch the game. In this round of the series, he watched the first game.
When Louie saw O'Neal raising his hand and constantly asking for the ball, he had no idea about pick-and-rolls, screens, etc., and his desire to defend against pick-and-rolls was even worse, he knew that this team was hopeless.
There are actually only four teams in the league's top five. The 76ers are a fake championship team.
Benj has been partnering with non-traditional unicorn insiders all these years. Whether it is Ewing in the early days or Deng and Jia in the Lakers period, they don't like to frequently ask for the ball in the low post to block the offensive space. So Benj can do a lot of things offensively.
But in Philadelphia, his playing habits were upended.
O'Neal occupies the center alone. He can only shoot outside and do a small amount of weak-side assault. The team mainly plays duo around them. In Louie's previous life, OK succeeded with such a triangle offense.
The problem is that the current NBA has been influenced by Louie, and there are several changes.
The competitiveness at the beginning of the new century has been greatly enhanced, UU Reading www.uukanshu. com The roll call tactic was launched 20 years in advance, and it is exclusively for insiders like O'Neill who don't like to defend against pick-and-rolls. These two points, combined with the lack of chemistry between Wilson and O'Neal, led to the 76ers losing in the playoffs for two consecutive years.
Even if he failed again, O'Neill still couldn't realize his problem.
"A lot of people ask me why I can't stand up and score, maybe you should ask my teammates, why can't you pass the ball to me!?"
The night the 76ers were eliminated, Wilson sent Louie a voice message.
"Coach, after all these years, the best teammate I've ever played with is still Patrick. He's a jerk, but he's a good teammate."
Louie laughed after hearing this message, and sent a text message to Benj: "I am very relieved to hear your message, so I always say that Chuck is the smartest player in your generation. The most important thing It's not who you play for, it's who you play with. I'm glad you think so, and Bean, Molly, DeYoung, Ti, they'd be happy too if they knew you thought so."
