My Name is Kobe Bryant
Chapter 82 The Glory of Boston
After the Lakers' game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Kobe Bryant embraced with his family on the sidelines.
Then without stopping, I got on the team bus with my teammates. Heading to Philadelphia airport, they need to make a quick trip to Boston for tomorrow's game.
Although the glory of the Celtics is gone, as long as Auerbach is still in their management, the Lakers will not dare to take it lightly.
Boston is the capital and largest city of Massachusetts, and the largest city in New England in the northeastern United States. Located on the Atlantic coast of the northeastern United States, it was founded in 1630 and is one of the oldest and most culturally valuable cities in the United States. The Boston Tea Party event in American history eventually led to the famous American War of Independence.
Boston is the center of higher education and health care in the northeastern United States, and is the city with the most educated population in the United States. Its economy is based on scientific research, finance and technology—particularly bioengineering—and is considered a global or cosmopolitan city.
The Lakers team arrived in Boston in the early morning and immediately went to the hotel to rest.
. . . . . .
Speaking of the team logo, the oldest team logo in the NBA is the Boston Celtics, and they have been in use since their inception.
The man in the green jacket, the green hat, and the civilized stick is probably the true portrayal of the first owner of the Celtics.
There is no question that the Boston Celtics are a great team and the Lakers' arch-nemesis.
Their duel began in the barbaric era, and one branch has been passed down to this day. And they are also the two teams with the most championships in the NBA.
Yellow and green, these two colors have been representatives of the league for a very long time in the NBA.
It can be said that without the dispute between yellow and green, there would be no glorious history of the NBA.
From 1946 to the BAA (the predecessor of the NBA, which was renamed the NBA in 1949) until 1995, for 49 years, they have been using an arena-the Boston Garden.
This ancient stadium has witnessed the two most glorious periods in the history of Bostonians - Bill Russell's 1960s and Larry Bird's 1980s, and also witnessed the raising of 16 championship banners.
On September 29, 1995, with the end of a nostalgic party in the Boston Garden, the arena that had been in service for nearly 50 years was officially closed. It was replaced by a brand new modern stadium-the Fleet Center Arena.
The Celtics are similar to the Lakers. Since Larry Bird and Magic Johnson retired, the team has been in a slump and has never returned to the ranks of strong teams.
It's just that the Lakers signed O'Neal this season and switched to Kobe to bring them back to the ranks of the top teams.
The current Boston Celtics 3 wins and 8 losses are determined to be bad. Legendary Celtics head coach, president and vice-chairman Red Auerbach appears to be trying to pull off some dodgy moves to put his team on top again.
This is what he has done for decades.
In the summer of 1956, he drafted Tom Heinsohn and KC Jones. And Reinhardt, who was entrusted by him to look for a great center, gave an answer: a guy who is 206 cm tall and has extremely imperfect offensive capabilities. And the Minneapolis Lakers are chasing him.
Auerbach decisively -- as he would do repeatedly over the next few decades -- used his wrists to acquire the young center. He may not have known at the time how much this would affect the direction of the times. And we write down this name in the historical chronology many years later, Bill Russell, Celtics No. 6.
In 1979, the 63-year-old man once again found the prince he needed to inherit the glory he had created. He, Auerbach, the first anti-racist in NBA history to use an all-black starter, in the 1978 draft, selected a player who played at Indiana University for 4 years with the sixth place. The white man who can't jump high - Larry Bird. According to his own statement, he only saw this guy play one game.
On June 9, 1980, Auerbach once again—how many times he has done similar tricks in more than three decades—made a terrible deal that even earned him a “Bandit” good name. He traded the No. 1 and No. 13 picks of the season from the Golden State Warriors for the No. 3 pick and Robert Parish, and then took University of Minnesota forward Kevin McHale at the No. 3 pick.
In 1986, Auerbach attempted to continue to contribute to the Celtics led by Bird. He cleverly took a No. 2 pick and picked—we have to trust his vision—a talented player, Bias. Just a few hours after being selected, this genius, this fantasized child of a future Uranus superstar, this figure who should have won honor for the future Celtic dynasty, died of cocaine poisoning.
And this year, Auerbach is doing his best to try to give Boston a player who can lead them into a renaissance.
. . . . . .
"Guys, we must give the Lakers a fatal blow to those ignorant boys." Auerbach appeared in the locker room before the game. Even if the team was doing badly, he didn't want to lose to the Lakers.
He gave every player present a Dutch Masters cigar.
"When you win, you can enjoy him."
Boston Celtics coach M-L-Kyle echoed, knowing he was a bad coach. When the team improves, he will be kicked out of the team without mercy, but it has been an honor for him to coach the Celtics, a team full of history.
The players looked at each other and won this victory for the Cardinal, which became the consensus of the entire team.
This is the magic of Cardinal Auerbach. In just a few words, the team's emotions were mobilized.
. . . . . .
When the Lakers walked into the Fleet Center, the deafening shouts shocked most players.
"BEAT LA! BEAT LA! BEAT LA!"
"My boy, this momentum." Fisher looked around, no arena he had encountered such crazy fans.
"Guys, get used to this. You know Boston will only shout at us like this." Rambis, who has experienced SHOWTIME, smiled, and the voices in the arena today are a bit lacking in confidence. After all, the fans are a little guilty about the lack of Larry Bird.
In their day, the shouts were more terrifying than they are today.
Bryant looked up at the rows of championship flags and retired jerseys hanging above the Fleet Center, turning a deaf ear to the shouts on the court.
Auerbach on the sidelines kept staring at Bryant.
It hurts if our No. 6 pick this year is not Antawn Walker but Kobe Bryant
