Chapter 433 The Finale of the First Generation Sixth Man *****
It was late at night, and Wei Xia's consciousness returned to the 1960s.
Whenever his real season ends, he will go back to the past and experience the pleasure of winning from the former winners.
In the 1963-64 season, the Celtics unyieldingly defeated the Cincinnati Royals led by O and Jerry Lucas and entered the finals. Opposite the world's strongest player, Wilt Chamberlain.
Compared with previous years, the Celtics have fewer point guards and less star-like flavor. In the first year of Bob Cousy's departure, many media have questioned their prospects for championships, but these guys who always face the stern faces against the whole world never care about those messy things.
According to legend, Lord of the Rings and his Celtics can become the most prestigious ultimate winners in NBA history because they are super teams among super teams, with 50 or more, and all-stars can only play as substitutes.
This view is correct or not.
Russell has indeed had many top 50 superstars around him, but many of them are not in the same era. Their peaks do not overlap, and some are just because he is a member of the Celtics, so he became a member of the Hall of Fame.
I have to mention a word here. When it comes to him, everyone will say defense because his offense has no highlights. After Cousey retired, Jones averaged 7.8 points, 5.3 assists, 39% shooting percentage, and no defense at 15 feet away. How did a pure defense expert who played for 9 years and started for 4 years and has not been selected for the All-Star once in the Hall of Fame? Is he better than Ben Wallace? He has half of Dennis Johnson who has not entered the Hall of Fame until his death (after he died) OK?
Of course it's a capital no!
When the Celtics emerged from the East, they always met teams with a lineup depth of theirs, but now the Warriors standing opposite them can indeed be considered a team that is inferior to them.
They are strong in the inside, with the unsolved Chamberlain and rookie Nate Thurmond.
The Celtics have three All-Stars, but none of them are selected into the All-A-League. Except Russell, no one is ranked in the top 20 rebounds per game, but their strength is still above the Warriors.
The game also revolves around how the Lakers use the trapped beasts against Chamberlain's characteristics.
Wei Xia watched almost the entire process of several finals.
He did not control Haflicecke's body to play, and it was even more interesting to stand by and watch the showdown between Russell and Chamberlain.
To be honest, the Warriors are less competitive than he thought.
The overall talent of the West is not as good as in previous years.
The Lakers' inside line is too bad, and it has reached the point where everyone is bullied. The St. Louis Hawks are no longer the Western Conference Super Team that competed with the Green Cat in the late 1950s.
Chamberlain brought the Warriors to fight them seven bloody games.
Game 7 was a rare life-and-death battle in the early stages of Chamberlain's career - 39 points, 30 rebounds, 6 assists, and how many blocks are there.
He completely killed Bob Pettit, who had 24 points and 12 rebounds.
He used the data of 2k players to bury an opponent who seemed to be controlled by AI.
In the duel between Chamberlain and Russell, the former's data usually doubles the latter. It's just that it can't win.
This scene will still happen tonight.
In the first game of the finals, Russell slaughtered 22 points and 23 rebounds.
Russell scored only 9 points, and his shots were even more pitiful.
Chamberlain took 20 shots, but failed to defeat Russell, because Russell's score was twice as big as he killed, but he grabbed 2 more rebounds than him, a total of 25.
More importantly, Chamberlain's defense was worse than Weisha thought.
Sam Jones mocked him crazy and scored 10 of 18.
However, the protagonist is John Haflicke, who was not possessed by Weisha, and he only had two moves against the Warriors.
Unlimited running and cut the back door, turn to attack the blue above.
With the second-hand splash, Havlicek made 12 of 17 shots and easily scored 28 points to help the Celtics win the first game.
Russell's personal abilities have never been on the same level as Chamberlain. He just knows how to choose and do something. He doesn't know much about offense, so he delegates power to his teammates. He is obviously the leader but he is the fourth and fifth offensive choice in the team.
He was surrounded by Sam Jones, Heinthorne and Haflicek.
Chamberlain is indeed at a disadvantage in this regard. He only has a few All-Star or Qual-All-Star scorers around him, and his quality is obviously not as good as the three giants on the Celtics' wing.
It was not his fault to lose to the Celtics' outside line, but he did not protect the basket on the defensive end, which made the three giants on the Celtics' wings soar high scores with 50% of the shooting rate. He had an unshirkable responsibility.
The first game ends here.
The Warriors gave Wei Xia a feeling.
The Warriors in his eyes are like the Lakers standing in front of the Spurs, who have the ability to narrow the gap, but they can't find a way to win.
In the second game, Chamberlain released Shinro Tianzheng against Russell and Heinthorne, as if he wanted to push the entire Celtics.
He frantically scored 32 points and 25 rebounds, with a shooting percentage of 52%.
Under his might, Heinthorne was crippled, 5 of 16 shots, and Russell continued to score in single digits (9).
Russell, who only made 10 shots, was neither humble nor arrogant. He ranked fifth in the Celtics team in the number of shots, and tied with K.C Jones, who didn't know how to attack better than him. There was no sound on the offensive end, but he still had a equal footing with Chamberlain on the rebound, and he caught a total of 24, and the sound on the defensive end was much greater than the former. Moreover, this may be the biggest gap between him and Chamberlain. He sent 9 assists and Chamberlain 3.
Sam Jones continued to hammer the Warriors' wing, hitting 31 points with more than 50% of the shooting percentage, and continued to speak rudely to Chamberlain.
"You can't win."
"You're like a dog!"
"Come on, come on."
His trash talk style can be summarized as lowly, and he was shouting outside, while Russell was comforting inside, and whispering to tell Chamberlain not to be angry and not to be as knowledgeable as Jones.
Russell knows better than anyone what kind of energy Chamberlain will burst out once he is angry. He is a master of psychological warfare. He comforts Chamberlain and makes him feel satisfied in the matchup, making him realize the status quo. "Anyway, if I try my best, I won't win." "As long as my data is good enough, the responsibility for losing will not fall on me." "Looking at my data, who thinks I am worse than Russell? Humph."
In the third game, the wild Chamberlain burst out with infinite power, with 35 points, 25 rebounds, 5 assists and 7 blocks that Wei Xia was not sure about, winning a game back from the Celtics.
In the fourth game, Chamberlain fully achieved rule over Russell on both offense and defense.
28 points and 38 rebounds, killing Russell with 9 points and 19 rebounds. He lost three things in the end, and the free throws were not good. In addition, because the free throws were not good, he did not dare to get the ball at critical moments, and the defense was still unreliable.
The opportunity to tie the big score was in front of them, they did not cherish it, and the ball was given to others, and the hope of defeating the Celtics was destroyed by Haflicek's defense.
98 to 95
The Celtics won the match point.
Sam Jones and Heinthorne made great contributions to their performance. They once again scored more than 50% of the shooting percentage and scored 56 points. Chamberlain slaughtered Russell to death, but could not resist the other Celtic cockroaches that appeared again and again and again disgusting people.
In the fifth game, the last game of the series, Weisha's consciousness descended on John Haflicek.
He wants to play this game.
Tonight's game has special significance. It is not only the final battle of the season, but also symbolizes that the Celtics did not collapse because of Cousy's retirement. The core theory of Cousy, only Cousy's theory of history, is bankrupt.
There is another meaning.
It was the retirement battle between Frank Ramsey and Jim Loscutoff.
Putting aside Locksterf as a rude, Ramsey's help to Weisha was significant, both in the 1960s and in the modern era.
Why did Wei Xia become a master of fake falls?
Why did he use his exaggerated acting skills to deceive the referees' trust, anger his opponents, and benefit the Lakers? A large part of the reason is Ramsey's words and deeds.
Frank Ramsey's first sixth identity greatly concealed his charm as the earliest performance artist on the court.
Of course, that is not a good reputation, and it is a good thing for fans not to understand.
In his prime, Ramsey always stuck behind someone like a leiotomata, and then put his hands up and down - this is just the first step. Then - glanced at the referee - one hand to cover it, and the other hand pulled it on the other jersey. The person in front fell to the sky before he understood what was going on.
As it is said that when you see this move, no one dares to snatch Ramsey again, but he will not let you go behind him - your arms are fist-turning backwards, using a hidden force behind the person's back, so the other party's soles slipped and hit Ramsey's back.
Those who did not repent after these moves and wanted to make a decision on Ramsey's side obviously naively underestimated the attack range of the fake fall ancestor. When you were watching the ball with a look, your arm was surrounded by something like a vine plant, and you couldn't help but fall down and pressed against Ramsey.
In this way, Ramsey was standing with her arms and shoulders on her back and left, and was thrown into her arms. She really lost her clothes and had no place to take any pressure.
This trick was inherited by the Celtics. It was not until Ramsey retired for almost 20 years before he was inherited by the one named Danny Angie.
Wei Xia is not as dirty as Ramsey, but the help Ramsey has radiated from the 1960s to the modern NBA. Two seasons have passed, and he has become a famous fake fall master and performance master in the league.
In the final game, Ramsey scored 18 points in 17 minutes, leaving the best ending for his sixth career.
The Titans Battle between Chamberlain and Russell is still bloody.
Chamberlain could not rule Russell again, and his offensive end was still high, making Russell look up at him, but the rest, rebounds, the two were comparable, and instigated teammates, he was far behind. Defence - Chamberlain, who was keen on volleyball caps, was unexpectedly inferior, and Russell was even more outstanding than he thought.
30 points, 27 rebounds, 2 assists, 48% shooting percentage, 14 points, 26 rebounds, 6 assists, 48% shooting percentage.
History cannot be if, but you can just do it appropriately. If Russell is as obsessed with offense as Chamberlain, will their scoring data gap really be that big? If Russell did that, he would not be Russell, and the Celtics would not have a great achievement of 13-year 11 titles. Bill Sharman, Bob Cousey, etc., they would probably all become Paul Alikin, Tom Gola sg/sf, and Guy Rogers in their later years.
If that happens, history will change drastically, and Chamberlain's championship will become more, because, together with selfishness, he will use his rich experience to defeat Russell.
The result was settled, and Russell, who was stronger overall and had more helpers, became the winner again.
The 1964 championship may be the last champion that could be called a natural champion in the 1960s when the Celtics dominated. They are stronger than other teams, and then the rotation of fate will make this period of history high-speed.
The Celtics habitually held the cup, but what moved Wei Xia the most was in the locker room. Ramsey said sincerely; "In this game, each of us is worth a $3,000 prize."
