MTL - The Rest, Only Noise-v2 Chapter 1489 Give you a small goal
After the Philadelphia 76ers lost the semifinals, Benjamin Wilson's agent announced that Benj's finger would undergo surgery, and it was expected to take 3-4 months to recover.
This recovery time can be compared with injuries such as fractures.
Wilson was not idle. While recovering from his injuries, he called Louis and invited him to Philadelphia to serve as president.
Louie found that Benj had been in power for a while, and he was enjoying the role of player GM more and more. "Not good? Isn't Brad the current general manager of Philadelphia?" Louie smiled lightly, "He did a good job."
Wilson said bluntly: "Brad has just entered the industry and doesn't understand anything. To a certain extent, his decision-making is dominated by the will of me and Shaq. This is not a qualified manager."
Louis couldn't figure out why Lowhouse gave up the Knicks' home commentator, a lifelong job that could be done for a long time, and why did he go to Philadelphia to be a tool for others.
Is it possible that this guy who has been a water cooler manager all his life also wants to become a protagonist through management work?
It's not that Louis thinks that Lowhouse shouldn't have this idea, but that this step is too big. Before taking this job, he had no experience.
The position of general manager looks good, but it is full of dangers. If a careless operation affects the team's record, he will be held accountable.
That is to say, the performance of the 76ers players is too hip, otherwise Low House's deal to introduce Sam Cassell when the team already has Baron Davis will definitely be criticized.
"Will Brad let me go?" Louie asked.
"He won't disagree," said Wilson flatly.
"Forget it, Benj, I have a plan for this comeback," Louie said, "and, besides, it's doomed to fail in Philadelphia."
This made GOAT feel uncomfortable. "Coach, can't I finish it?"
How exaggerated is the task that even GOAT can't complete? "Yes, you can't."
Louis said ruthlessly.
Moreover, he did not disclose the content of the plan, leaving Wilson in a cloud.
What plan was so difficult that even he couldn't complete it? Is it because his performance in this year's playoffs is too stretched, so that the coach has a wrong perception of his strength? can't you?
After going back and forth, Benj became more curious about Louis' new plan, so he paid close attention to the latter's next move.
These days, there are quite a few teams that have offered contracts to Louis, but since the Celtics won this year's No. 1 pick, Boston is his ideal next home.
Only, Boston is a problematic place. Now there are three main problems.
Has Reid Auerbach really transformed into an acquired mascot, as they said, with zero influence on decision-makers?
Can Isiah Thomas and him coexist? If not, does he have the right to kick Thomas away?
Would Boston, a conservative city notorious for its racism in the late 1970s, be receptive to his roster containing no black players? This question sounds strange. Since Boston has racial discrimination, why would there be resistance to forming a team with 0 black content? This involves more complex issues.
First of all, the majority of Bostonians believe that grand narratives like racial discrimination have nothing to do with them. They are all friendly, kind and specific people, so how can they discriminate against others? Discrimination is the worst thing.
The more people have historical stains, the more sensitive they are in front of stains.
Once Louie organizes this team, racism will always be a problem that will always haunt the team.
Moreover, for Bostonians who are more and more proud of the Celtics' history of actively embracing black players, this is simply stepping on everyone's dick.
Thinking of this, Louie immediately realized that he couldn't, and he couldn't say right away that he wanted to build a championship team without black players.
Although he likes to seek thrills, he has no intention of ruining himself for a little thrill. this thing needs to move slowly
OK.
Before the team has the ability to compete for the championship, the black players in the team must always occupy a certain proportion. Until it is determined that the time to win the championship has arrived, the team will be completely bleached.
Moreover, it is necessary to create a sense of surprise at that time, and it cannot make people feel that he has formed such a team deliberately.
Even so, when the team was finally formed, they had only one year to win the championship.
Therefore, we must be cautious.
Whether these ideas can be realized depends on whether Paul Gaston has given up on recruiting himself.
After all, he'd spent months attending luncheons and befriending Louie for purposes and plans that everyone at the meeting knew.
A few days ago, Louie rejected Gaston again, and he didn't know if it was the last time. Tuesday, May 16
Louis came to China Dole on time as usual.
However, only Auerbach and Gaston were present today. "Where are the others?" Louie asked.
Auerbach said, "I have other things to do today, so I won't have dinner together." Louie complained, "Then why didn't you inform me?"
Auerbach said playfully, "Because what I want to do can't be done without you."
Besides the two of them, Gaston was present, and Louis immediately guessed Auerbach's intentions. This is a good thing, indicating that the Celtics still want him.
"Reed, you are a person with one foot in the coffin, do you still want to be a lobbyist?"
Although Louis sat down, he was not polite at all when speaking.
"Paul, I can't count how many times I've turned you down, don't you realize I have no interest in returning to Boston?!"
Gaston didn't know how to respond to Louie's almost unkind words. "this..."
"Anyway, you are going to make a comeback, where is it not a comeback?" Auerbach was really afraid that Gaston would be bluffed by Louis' words.
Since Louis didn't choose to leave immediately, but sat down voluntarily, it means that there is still hope for talking about this matter.
If he's really not interested at all, he should just turn around and leave like those online dating lovers who rush to show up but die.
Louis snorted softly: "I spent six years in Boston. To be honest, I miss that time very much, but more, I miss the self who is passionate about everything. As for the plants and trees here , UU Reading www.uukanshu.com I don’t have any nostalgia, let alone come back.”
Auerbach knows this kind of unfeeling rhetoric all too well.
The more Louie behaves like this, the more convinced he is that Boston has a chance. Only by being decisive enough can Louis let go of the asking price.
After all, people have already said that he has no feelings for this place. Since he has no affection, of course he has to rely on his own interests to fight for it.
"Okay, don't talk so hard, since I decided to get involved in this matter, I will naturally give you a reason to come back."
As a professional in the trading market who is keen to offer "an offer that cannot be refused" to the other party, Louis is naturally alert when he hears this.
Louis stared at Auerbach: "Let's listen."
"I remember you took a short break in 1993. How old were you at that time? 33? I said at the time, you can't take a long break, and you came back soon. I have been there since then. I know you are a person who will not be easily satisfied." Auerbach's voice is full of thickness, and people have to listen carefully, "Now, you have created brilliant results in the Lakers, just like seven years ago, you still choose Rest, because you can't find the goal. Now I give you this goal. In this world, only you can do it, and only you have the qualifications."
Auerbach lit the cigar he had been carrying all along, but his soft words sounded like thunder: "Come to Boston and replace me. How about this goal?"
