MTL - The Rest, Only Noise-Chapter 33 prototype
Because of the tough play against the Rockets, Fitch got tougher in practice the next day.
He made the players miserable and the magic happened.
The Celtics' chemistry was fueled by a shared desire to win and a shared aversion to tough coaches.
Next, the Celtics played against Fitch's former team, the Cleveland Cavaliers.
In the two games, the Celtics scored 136 points and 127 points respectively, and Bird entered the state.
He started to be the leader of the team.
In another battle, the Celtics were defeated by the Pacers.
Pacers backup power forward Mickey Johnson (MickeyJohnson) played a major role in this campaign.
He came off the bench and showed his versatile interior offense. Cowens couldn't stop him, and the former MVP was in decline.
During the period, Louie had suggested that Laimbeer should deal with Johnson.
But Laimbeer's sloppy attitude was displeased by Fitch, and he would rather let other players who have proven themselves unable to guard against Johnson's bursting form be abused on the court, rather than give Laimbeer a chance.
Although the team didn't play as Louie had envisioned, they still got off to an 11-2 start.
The reason why Louis was dissatisfied with the Celtics' performance during this period was that Bird's immediate combat power was not maximized.
Fitch didn't seem to know how to let Bird specialize in what he could do, because he could do anything.
Also, Fitch pinned Bird at the 3, thanks to the fact that there aren't many modern, athletic forwards in the league, or Bird's defense would face a severe test.
In the first 13 games of the season so far, Bird has averaged 18.8 points, 8.9 rebounds and 4 assists per game. This is certainly a gratifying performance, but Louis feels that if he plays normally, there should be more than this number.
So Louie, like a repeater, suggested more than once that Fitch should play the ball to Bird and let Bird do the ball more than once. For this reason, he creatively came up with a statistic called "holding time".
The data shows that Bird's possession time can only be ranked third in the starting lineup.
For this data, Louis spent several days and nights making videos. Later, when he couldn't handle it alone, he asked others to record the ball-holding time of the players with him. In this way, a very simple "ball-holding time" data has been produced.
Fans in the 21st century are not surprised by this kind of data. Both Paul and James were cited by fans as breaking the wrong impression that "the two people who have been sticking the ball for a long time are the ball masters" because of their short holding time.
And Louie is doing it now, just to get Bird to get some more balls.
Fitch, on the other hand, is a hard-boiled conservative who doesn't want to change when the Celtics are doing well.
On November 11, 1979, the Celtics faced the 76ers in a meaningful battle.
The rebirth of the Celtics against the Philadelphia 76ers at their peak was hailed as a preview of the Eastern Conference finals, and the two teams were ranked in the top two in the Eastern Conference.
In their respective teams, there are famous names such as Bird, Dr. J, Dawkins, Maxwell, Cowens, Bobby Jones, and Doug Collins, but CBS did not broadcast the game.
The Doctor showed no mercy to the young bird, who seemed eager to stand in front of the future star.
Looking at the Doctor, Louie seems to be watching another version of Moses Malone, or, a shrunken version of the Greek monster.
He can do anything, and his style of play is amazing. In the third quarter, he completed a one-handed continuous pull-rod to pick up a rebound and rebound in the third quarter. The most powerful player ever.
Like Malone and the Greek monster, he is a qualified cornerstone for team building, but neither has a reliable means of attacking the fortress.
The most surprising thing for Louie was that he saw Maurice Cheeks in the 76ers.
Isn't he on the Clippers? How did you get to Philadelphia?
But when he linked Cheeks to Philadelphia, he knew why the name Cheeks sounded familiar.
After Cheeks retired, he was the coach of the 76ers, and Iverson was traded to the Nuggets during his tenure.
Now, he knew the source of his impression of Cheeks, but he didn't know why Cheeks returned to Philadelphia. But considering that the Clippers didn't want Bird's signing rights in the first place, it's not surprising what this idiot team did.
Cheeks' performance in Philadelphia proved Louie's vision.
As a substitute, he averaged 11 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2.1 steals per game. Which is the substitute? This is the gangster on the bench!
Tonight, the Sixers destroyed Boston with their athleticism.
Even if the Doctor made 14 of 34 shots, the inside advantage was still an important factor in the Phillies winning the game.
"Chocolate Bomb" Daryl Dawkins abused the basket many times, and Cheeks' defense made every Celtics guard very embarrassed. For a while, they had to let Bird dribble the ball over half court .
In this battle, the Doctor completely defeated Bird in terms of data.
"He's very good!" The doctor is very personable today, and he will be so radiant when he greets Bird with his fists in the future, "I mean, Boston has dug up a diamond."
Next, they saw the 5-10 Pistons.
There is no hope for this miserable team, whose first-round picks for the next two years are in the hands of the Celtics.
And Dick Vitale, who brewed this bad result, was kicked out by the management after realizing it after leading his team to a record of 4 wins and 8 losses.
It's a back-up that doesn't make any difference, and if they don't make it through the offseason, they'll have two seasons with the worst lineup in the league and two straight years for the Celtics, who are currently No. 2 in the East. 50% chance of the No. 1 pick and 100% of the top two picks.
It's not a matter of manipulative errors, it's a crime against the rest of the league.
Although the content of the game was not what Louis thought, he was not the head coach and could not decide how the team played.
During this time, he has read many coaches.
Basically it's about how to be successful, but is this something teachable?
If it's teachable, Bill Russell, Jordan, Isaiah Thomas, and others won't have to suffer repeated setbacks in front office operations when they retire.
Rather than annoy Fitch with frequent advice, keep your mouth shut and focus on your studies.
He noticed that several teams in the league were playing fast-paced offenses, such as the San Antonio Spurs, which ranked first in points per game.
They averaged 119 points per game, led by mad coach Doug Moe.
Their game left Louie scratching their heads, changing tactics and playing casually, with everyone making a decision within two seconds of getting the ball, either shoot or pass.
The Spurs have no set tactics.
Coach Mo has also been telling the media that they have no tactics at all.
He's a deviant guy who doesn't appeal to conservative coaches, and the media just finds him funny.
And after Louie carefully studied the Spurs' play style, he found that Mo may not have lied.
The Spurs really have no tactics.
Considering that they had a 50% win rate without a strategy, and everyone was happy, Doug Mo never took the credit for himself.
This man is not simple.
Louie had such an impression of Mo in his mind, and then the Los Angeles Lakers, who were second in scoring per game.
Unlike the Spurs' messy and fluid offense, the Lakers play a typical fast-break team.
It's the style that their new boss, Jerry Buss, likes, it's gorgeous, fast-paced, exciting and good-looking. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
The style was established by Jack McKinney, who led the team to a 10-4 record after a car crash, who was replaced by Paul Westhead and is basically Shaw Rule Cao with.
McKinney played how he used to play, and he played better.
Louie likes the unrestrained style of the Lakers, but the team has several concerns.
Kareem is a ticking time bomb, but the magician's smile has the potential to heal him.
Magic had to share the ball with Norm Nixon PG. He is a rookie and can endure it. If things go on like this, how can he be reconciled? Every point guard is a mad dog, and if anyone tries to steal their ball, they'll go mad.
Louis looked around and simply wrote down the scouting reports of several strong teams.
But it was more written for himself.
If he is to coach in the future, what kind of team he hopes to build.
What is certain is that the team he wants is not the one-of-a-kind running tactics under Bill Fitch, almost everyone is depressed, and can't let a monster with infinite possibilities like Bird to release the energy of the stereotyped play. Law.
But how to fight specifically, he is also groping.
The only advice he can give at the moment is to give the ball to Bird.
Coaching is really not a simple knowledge. If you have good players, you may be able to win games by playing simple tactics. If you don’t have good players and you need a certain degree of record guarantee, it will be a very test of your coaching skills.
In Louis's heart, he has a prototype.
But he also needs a lot of expertise.
