On the way, he stopped thinking about Ewing.

He was thinking about tonight's game, the full-court press that helped them seal the victory.

Looking at it now, it must have been a wonderful stroke.

However, until they have seriously practiced a full-court pressing system, they can no longer use this tactic easily.

The problem with their full-court press was noticed by Magic on the spot. If Stevens hadn't worked hard enough and the Lakers, except Magic, were a little confused, there would have been no good results.

But this game also showed Louis the value of a full-court press.

If he wants to build a strong defensive team, full-court press is a necessary skill.

He now has an idea, but he still needs to consult an expert.

Back at the hotel, he carefully looked through the memo and finally found the person's contact information.

Louis didn't know if it was appropriate to call this point.

He decided to try his luck, and it would not be too late to apologize if he disturbed others' rest.

The phone beeped several times, but fortunately, the other party answered the call.

"Hello, who's there?"

"Rick, do you remember me?" Louis introduced himself, "I am"

On the other end of the phone, Rick Pitino, the current head coach of the University of Providence men's basketball team, asked unexpectedly: "Lu, why did you call me so late?"

Louie didn't have the arrogance to ask Pitino if he was watching tonight's game.

He briefly talked about the game between the Knicks and the Lakers. The key point was the full-court press at the beginning and end of the fourth quarter.

"Beautiful, wonderful tactics to win." Pitino smiled, "Congratulations, Coach Lu."

"Rick, this game has given me a lot of inspiration, and I would like to ask you a question about this matter."

"you say."

"If I select five suitable players to practice full-court pressing, and then substitute them all at certain points in the game, do you think it will work?"

Pitino was silent.

"Rick?"

"Coach Lu, I really suspect that you sneaked into my mind and stole my ideas." Pitino said excitedly, "I'm just thinking about doing this. You know, the talent pool in college is even lower, and senior players

It has a confrontation advantage against younger players, and the full-court press is more lethal."

"It's such a coincidence. Why not, you test this tactic in college basketball, and I test this tactic in the NBA. We can communicate regularly and find each other's strengths and weaknesses."

Pitino was clearly more excited than Louie.
