The rest is just noise

The old man is like this

"The fish bit!"

"Did the fish bite?"

Louis and Bass said in unison.

Bass Jr. also asked: "Coach Zhao, are you still fishing?"

Zhao Yuanzheng smiled and said: "Yes, I have been busy with this recently."

Little Bas obviously forgot about Dejan Bodiloga and really thought that Zhao Yuanzheng had gone fishing.

"Oh, how I wish I could fish freely like you..." Little Bass said with a silver bullet, "But I like to fish for mermaids in the bar."

Louis really wants to kick this bastard out of the office.

"Jim, go make arrangements for today's lunch."

"Sir, it's still early..."

"If you are asked to go, you will go!"

Bass Jr. walked out of the president's office dejectedly.

Louis then got down to business with Zhao Yuanzheng: "Tell me what's going on."

Zhao Yuanzheng smiled and said: "Deyang and I have been fighting online for more than half a month. Although he has some insights, a player like him cannot be my opponent in terms of theoretical ability, so..."

Louis could imagine how Bodiloga felt when an arrogant and rude netizen said he was worthless.

He must be very angry and want to refute, but no matter how he refutes, there are always loopholes in front of Zhao Yuanzheng.

"What's the end result?" Louis asked.

Zhao Yuanzheng said: "He decided to come to watch the game."

This development was unexpected by Louis.

"Come to the scene?" Louis asked, "Why is this?"

Zhao Yuanzheng explained: "It took me ten days to convince him that the Lakers are playing the best basketball game ever, that the forum is the Mecca of basketball, and that 'beautiful basketball' was invented by Nai Smith more than a hundred years ago.

The greatest achievement since basketball..."

Such a boast made Louis blush.

"How can you talk such nonsense?!" The bohemian Coach Lu actually felt ashamed.

Zhao Yuanzheng smiled and said: "What's the point? What's important is that he believed it."

He believed it... How could he believe Zhao Yuanzheng's nonsense? Is this guy mentally ill?

Louis asked with a strange expression: "So he wants to come to watch the game?"

"Yes." Zhao Yuanzheng said, "So, our performance may be decisive by then."

If the Lakers cannot perform to a sufficient level, there will be no way to impress Bodilloga.

Things are back to where they started, you still need to be tough when you are forging iron.

In other words, Bodiloga's problem has not been solved yet, but the Lakers have taken a crucial step, at least they can trick this Serbian country bumpkin into coming to the United States.

Louis asked: "When will he arrive?"

Zhao Yuanzheng said: "It was probably the day before the fourth game of the finals."

Game 4…

If all goes well, that game will be the season finale.

The Lakers have been in excellent form recently. Even if Bodilloga comes to watch the game, Louis believes they can play a high-quality game.

However, it is hard to say whether Bodiloga will be impressed.

Because the Lakers cannot guarantee a high level of performance every time they play "Beautiful Basketball". If there are problems with handovers on the court and a large number of mistakes occur, the scene will be ugly.

But things have developed to this point, and even if Louis has doubts, he can only go on.

Fortunately, Bodiloga's appearance does not affect the players' mentality.

The only players who knew that the team was interested in Bodilloga were Wilson, Liu Yuqing and Kobe, but the psychological quality of these three was better than the other, and it was impossible to be influenced by the outside world.

Therefore, in that day's game, the Lakers just need to be themselves.

The next day, the Lakers set off for Boston.

The Lakers haven't had a good memory in Boston for decades.

Instead, their past defeat by the Celtics in the Finals has become nourishment for Boston people.

To this day, Bostonians still feed off the hatred of Lakers fans.

After all, they lost all ten games in the finals. This record is really too dazzling.

For Louis, playing against the Celtics in the Finals was also an event of positive commemorative significance.

As soon as he arrived in Boston, the local media sent veteran reporters to interview him.

When Louis debuted in Boston, these reporters had more or less contact with him.

They have witnessed Luigi's transformation from "little devil" to "Little Lu", and then from "Little Lu" to "Leader Lu". Now, in this impetuous place of Los Angeles, what kind of "Legend Lu" is being advocated.

As time passed, Louis was already a highly respected and legendary godfather. The reporters came to Louis with mixed emotions and asked several commonplace questions.

Bob Ryan and Louie of the "Boston Globe" are old enemies, and they also asked a question today: "Will facing the Celtics in the Finals arouse your fighting spirit?"

"Of course." Louis replied honestly, "We all want to prove to our ex that we are better off than before."

This is the truth, but it is unpleasant to hear.

Unlike Louis, who weighs 95KG but contains 90KG of stubborn bones, Bird as a member of the Lakers is even more unacceptable to Celtic supporters.

How famous was Bird with the Celtics back then?

This is the place where she was crowned the first person in history. How come she is now a Laker?

Bird has already matured his words to deal with this kind of doubt.

"I'm just walking the same path that Bill Sharman walked."

As for whether there is any psychological pressure on facing the Celtics in the Finals?

Bird shook his head vigorously: "No, I know who is paying me now."

Bostonians are anxious, won’t the Celtics pay you a salary? Why do you have to go to the Lakers?

In this regard, Bird's argument is more solid: "Because the Lakers value me more. They are willing to let me play a role in the coaching staff, while Boston seems to only regard me as a sign to decorate the door. I only have symbolic meaning here, and

It has no practical effect. This kind of job is not challenging for me. Choosing the Lakers has nothing to do with loyalty or money, it just depends on what I want to do more."

Bird's words successfully put the blame for his defection to the Lakers on the Celtics management.

Fans are innocent and the media is snobbish.

Simple fans just want to scold the bad management, while the snobbish media want to use explosive articles to hold the Celtics management accountable.

The person most seriously affected is not Celtics vice president Dave Gavitt, but Reed Auerbach, who has become more and more like a spiritual totem in recent years rather than a team executive.

On the eve of the third game between the Lakers and Celtics, Bob Ryan, who was making a lot of noise, published an article: "Maybe, we should take away the key from Reid's hand."

This article is nothing more than saying that Auerbach is old and confused, no longer the wise man he once was, and it's time to quit completely and hand over control of the team.
