Chapter Twenty-Five: A Memory That Touches the Soul of the Greenshirt - Baias
Celtic are starting to take control! The hard work of our main players seems to have been in vain, and the feeling today is not that we can't do it, but that the Celtics are so strong today
At halftime my team trailed by 8 points! It's incredible
At the beginning of the second half, the commentator said one word - Baias Celtic has a name that hurts when touched in the soul of Baias Celtic - Baias
How long is a player who has been gone for more than 12 years, when Mike · Tyson was invincible; Eddie Middot Murphy is also shuttling between baseball leagues; Don Middot Johnson is the coolest guy on the planet; Michael Middot Jackson is starting this peak moment of his own; Indiana has not yet been liberated; Wayne Middot Gresky and Larry Middot Bird have teamed up to dominate the sports world; The president of the United States is still Ronald & Middot Fagan but Baias is still there, just like those great players, at least in the hearts of Celtic fans, who are unwilling to give up even if they have the deepest pain
In the 1986 NBA Draft, the Celtics used the list to select Len Middot Baias from the University of Maryland, and the Bostonians at that time were overwhelmed with joy, because the whole of America knew how strong Baias was As for how strong he is, people may not be able to witness it now, but there are a few people who have the most appropriate evaluation
Coach K, the head coach of the U.S. team and arguably one of the biggest coaches in the U.S., once said, "Over the years, I think there are only two people who can really be called the strongest - Jordan and Baias, whose amazing strength has completely stood the test, and he should have been the top player in the NBA, I think a real game leader should do what others can't, just like Jordan's performance, Baias has this ability, you can't stop him from scoring - no matter how you defend him, He's always going to have jīng Cai to perform."
At that time, Celtics general manager Chris Middot Wallace said: "Baias is so good that you can't believe it", at that time, as soon as the draft was over, an ESPN commentator said that the Celtics' second 8-game championship was coming, this sentence is undoubtedly the greatest affirmation of what a terrifying lineup formed after Baias entered the Celtics at that time, perhaps from these words, you can feel how terrifying this player named Baias is
And there was once a Washington Post and ESPN reporter named Michael Middot Wilburn, who spoke more highly of Baias, "His death has affected the entire history of the NBA, and if he were alive, the Pistons' bad boys would not have come out on top, and the Celtics would have been a long-term winner."
So, does Baias really have such amazing strength?
Perhaps the most direct proof is in a regular season game in NCAA in 1981, when the two sides were Maryland vs North Carolina at that time North Carolina was unimpeded under the leadership of His Royal Highness the Flyers, but when they met Maryland, the whole team mentioned the 12-point Jīng God, because the team they played against had Bayas Although North Carolina still had the last laugh at that time, Len's style comprehensively overpowered Jordan, and Jordan also said in an interview after the game: I have never seen such a good player, Baias is simply too outstanding, you must know that we have 4 stars in North Carolina, and Maryland is his team alone, throughout history, to be able to have such a high evaluation of young Jordan, maybe it is also Baias alone
If that's not enough, then look no further than his achievements in four years at the University of Maryland! The skinny, sturdy little guy from nearby Landover grew into a 6-foot-8-inch, 205-pound angular scorer
He slowly reached the level of mastering the college game, just like he did in high school, and the year he graduated from high school, he became the MVP of the McDonald's All-Star Game; In his final year of college, he led the Atlantic Coast Conference scoring list for two consecutive years and was named Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year His scoring has steadily improved year on year, and "Lefty" Drysell, who called him "the most outstanding player the Atlantic Coast Conference has ever made" Dryser's praise may be a bit excessive, but not outrageous, even considering David Thompson, Bob McAdoo, John Lucas, Michael Jordan and many other outstanding players have also come from Atlantic Coast Union University
The cardinal also said: "If Lun didn't leave us, I think the late 80s and 90s should have been when we ruled the whole league, then it wouldn't have made the bad boy army in Detroit so arrogant, and there could be no "bull dynasty", in short, God is unfair to us, but it is possible that God will let him leave us for the development of the whole alliance"
It's a pity that he only exists in legends! Legend has it that he left the impression that he had the body of James · Worthy, if this analogy makes sense, I have to say that except for Jordan and the "human movie jīng Hua", no one can fly more than the young Baias, but this is not the main reason for his pride and excellence, Baias's difference comes from his aggression, it is a temperament that destroys all opponents, yes, in that era when everyone is flying all over the sky in tight shorts, There are many gentlemen who are as good as jade, they are polite, even if they are superior - David Robinson, Keith William Moss, Drexler, Bernard King and "Movie Jīng Hua" Boykins are all exemplars Jordan also had the habit of hugging opponents in the arena before he arrived in North Carolina, but Coach Dean Middot Smith forcefully canceled his habit - "never show favor to the enemy"
There are certain traits in Baias that became fashionable in the 90s, and even continue to this day - loose and fat, unfashionable shorts, screaming after heavy buttons, trash talk, etc., but what others do is for the sake of victory - such as Jordan, Malone, Garnett's trash talk, but if it weren't for the crisis, they probably wouldn't do it, but Baias seems to be an exception, everything he does is completely instinctive, he has no scruples about dunking everyone on the head; He growled at his teammates; He snarled at the referee; He roared at his opponent; He growls at almost every living being in the stadium - because that's how he can vent his excess jīng power and passion
I don't know if someone compares me with a genius who has never met in the history of the Celts, and even if there is, those estimates are fifty, sixty or seventy, it's a pity, if I were Baias, the current Baias is no longer a Celtic dream,
Or maybe I should bring some good memories to Celtic fans who am so dear to me? Even if it's a pity, I think I should give some good things to Celtic fans, and after more than 20 years, I should also pay tribute to those old Celtic fans!
Now I even have a sacred feeling with the ball I don't know why, I wonder myself
It's still Rondo in front, the player I can beat almost at any time, I can see his helplessness now, he's very serious, I know he doesn't know what to do, half a step forward and even have an idea to go forward, I have a chance to easily pass him, take a step back, I push to the front, as long as there is a step away from me, his defense is a hypocrisy, I don't think I have much time to calculate how to come, trying to break through Rondo, but after all, he is still one of the best outside defenders in the league, I didn't shake him off in two consecutive steps of direction and turn, but I was already in the frontcourt, and when I got to this position, I knew he would definitely stick up, I took a step back again, dribbled head-on to him, he tried to stick a step forward, just this one attempt, I passed him in one step, I couldn't imagine why I could step past him in one step, I was actually ready to turn and change direction, but after I took a hundred steps, I found that he actually walked to my left side, Naturally, I didn't want to be cheap in vain, so I was embarrassed to accept his gift, but after passing him, Ray Allen actually made up for it, his pace was very slow, I saw it clearly, I shook it, dribbled the ball under the crotch to the left side, jumped directly, shot, and only then did I see Ray Allen jump up, and the ball hit a two-point!
I don't know why, it's not a beautiful goal, but it's a great sense of accomplishment
Then the Celtics attacked, and Rondo assisted Ray Allen, who was under my defense, and shot straight away, and hit it easily
My competitive spirit is sublimated again! I definitely want to compete with Ray Allen, and the opportunity for the two best shè players in the league to meet now is once and for all, I never know if there will be a next time after this showdown!
My response was to dribble straight and fast, then change direction in the midfield, shake off Rondo, and jump straight for a super long-range three! The same hits! It's a good feeling to be able to do three points like this in front of your idol
Celtic's offense is still tenacious! I really can't imagine that Garnett, Pierce, and Ray Allen have been playing for more than 35 minutes and can still run! I feel like I'm getting tired!
I hold the ball and look at the time! 1 minute left! My team is still three points behind!
Key Ball! This is my moment! In the last few games of the season, we have almost always won by an absolute margin, and we have never encountered such a stalemate!
3 points short! 1 minute! If I throw this goal, it's a draw! Both teams almost have time to attack once, and there is a great chance of winning! If not, the hope of victory will be at least half less!
I dribbled slowly, and the coach arranged that I was the first choice, and Jobs' wandering near the free throw line was the second point, and Aix's baseline wandering was the third point
I dribbled to the top of the arc, Rondo's defense was only half a step, and the others were using help defense, and I was undoubtedly the target of their defense, and after I broke through, En's people could make up for it at any time To be honest, I might be able to choose to "retreat to advance" at this time, because I have no less three-point ability than the three-point line in the middle line
I move on the right side, Rondo follows, I make a feint to try to go left, Rondo is smart and not fooled, but I know, I keep going right, one accelerates forward, Rondo takes a step back, I make a sharp stop, take a step back, Rondo stops a little slowly, I know the opportunity has come! Maybe it's too much of a ball, but I believe in myself!
I jumped lightly! In my experience, the quicker you shoot, the better, and I can always be in the right position, the right take-off, and I can hit it gently
40 points! The exclamation of the audience I am no longer trying to listen, but I feel that I am flattening again! The opportunity is here!
The audience rang out with a unanimous "Defend! Defend! "The sound!
I'm really not sure that the defense will succeed! Because today's Celts are so unexpected by everyone!
I'm defending Rondo! At this critical juncture! The possibility of a straight score in Rondo is the smallest!
Rondo's rhythm is very slow! Apparently he is seeking stability!
With 15 seconds left in the race, Rondo accelerated and broke through against me! I'll step back and follow up! Keep up! I saw that Rondo was going to pass to Pierce and Ray Allen on the perimeter, and I wanted to interfere with his passing to them this year, and I was going to force him to shoot Rondo himself, and it looked like he was going to go to the basket or pass the ball, but I bet he would pass the ball because he wasn't really sure he was going to shoot the ball in
But I was wrong! Rondo made a quick stop and hit with a small throw! I kind of understand, Rondo is now a real giant of the Celtics! He has absolute choice and offensive power for the Celtics' offense, even if he loses this ball, the offense loses,
My Warriors are down by 2 points again! There are only 13 seconds left! I have one last chance to attack! For the last time!
I'm not Baias, I don't have that kind of physicality, I don't have that kind of vision on the field, and I have domineering, but I have an unbeatable talent for killing!
With the ball in the backcourt, I went to the front court alone, I can't wait for time! 13 seconds! Actually, maybe I only need 5 seconds! The remaining 8 seconds of command give me instability! I was organizing again in the middle and I knew all my teammates off the field, Coach Nelson, Avril Avril was up as well
7! It's my heartbeat!
6! Remember!
5!
4!
I could feel them all holding their breath! At this time, Ray Allen pressed up, he knew that my time was running out, and I knew very well what I was doing!
3!
2! I move one step diagonally to the left! Both Ray Allen and Rondo are already far away from me!
Sell! This arc was specially designed by me! Will rub the back edge of the basket into the Nets! Then there will be a "swish" sound! I couldn't help but want to celebrate when I fell! I raised my hand and ran forward, intending to hug Keynes!
Really! It's just that only I can feel the sound of "swish"! The audience was cheering! All my teammates came and surrounded me!
It's exactly like a dream!
Lore! I'm lore again! This is the first lore of the season! It worked! Maybe I also contributed to the old Celtic fans with a victory that should have belonged to Baias! -
