The rest is just noise

Chapter 1546 Unprecedented low-key

Louis was surprised that he was selected into the Hall of Fame because he didn't know the rules for being selected into the Hall of Fame. The outside world was surprised by Louis' selection.

What they are surprised about is why Louis was not inducted until now? Louis was inducted into the Hall of Fame as a coach.

Coaches and players are different.

Players need to wait a few years after retiring to be nominated, and then go through a committee vote. Only if they are approved by a majority vote will they be officially selected.

This is not the case for coaches. Coaches are not required to wait a few years.

Many coaches have been elected to the Hall of Fame during their coaching years. This is why it is surprising that Louis is inducted now.

Judging from his qualifications, he should have been selected long ago. In the end, everyone can only attribute it to his youth.

He is only 43 years old this year, which is the age when many coaches just start coaching.

Maybe the Hall of Fame committee really didn't want to see a young man in his early thirties lamenting that time flies on stage. The new identity of the boss allowed Louis to find his passion for doing things, and being elected to the Hall of Fame was more like an epitaph for his coaching career.

Everything is a reminder that Louis' past glory has been condensed into history.

The next day, Louis held a press conference as usual, briefly thanking everyone who had helped him, and talking about his thoughts on being inducted into the Hall of Fame.

The most interesting question of the day was, who will be Louis' Hall of Fame recommender? This is a question worth exploring.

First eliminate all players.

What this group of people had to do was to sit in the audience and listen to his bragging, instead of standing next to him as a recommender. Considering the special significance of recommenders, Louis thought for a long time and found that there were only two candidates.

Jones, who directly helped him enter professional basketball.

Reed Auerbach, it is undeniable that the old man gave him a lot of help in the early stages of his career.

If Louis had not worked for the old man at the beginning of his career, he might not have had such a rapid upward trend. It is still early and Louis is not in a hurry to make a decision.

After all, he has just been selected and will have to wait until next year to officially enter the Hall of Fame.

After a period of time, Louis stopped paying attention to Celtics games, and his focus was on improving the facilities of the Fleet Center. But this was not something Louis could do if he wanted to, because the Fleet Center was not his asset.

The owner of Fleet Center was a businessman from northern Delaware who knew nothing about sports. When Louis explained to him the need to improve the spectator experience, he asked, "Can't those chairs be used to sit on?"

"It's okay, but it's uncomfortable." "Has anyone complained?" "Not many."

"Well, then I think there's probably no need to change it."

Although Louis was willing to share half of the cost, the other party refused to agree. In the end, Louis had to invest his own money to replace the large screen on site.

As for the rest, we can only wait until the time is right.

As time enters December, the first duel between Lu Wuxia and Anthony in their NBA careers has attracted a lot of attention.

Leaving aside James, who scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game for the Cavaliers, Lu Wuxia and Anthony have attracted more attention because they both play for strong teams.

Lu Wuxia currently averages 18 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists per game, leading the team to a record of 12 wins and 2 losses, ranking third in the Eastern Conference. And Anthony has more stories to tell.

After being selected by the Clippers in last year's draft, Anthony showed a willingness to die rather than obey, and publicly stated that if the Clippers did not trade his signing rights, he would benefit Europe.

Former NBA player Billy Owens, who set the precedent more than ten years ago, lamented: "Looking at today's NBA, only Carmelo Anthony is the most like me."

The Clippers spent two months trying to convince Anthony, but failed. In the end, they had no choice but to trade Anthony.

The winner of this battle for Anthony is the Utah Jazz.

The Jazz sent Rasheed Wallace and Josh Howard in the first round in 2004, 2006 and 2008

Draft pick, acquired from the Clippers the rights to sign Carmelo Anthony, Alvin Williams (Alvillia PG, Nikoloz Tskitishvili PF).

Just looking at the transaction, I can't tell whether the Clippers made a profit or a loss.

Because Rasheed Wallace is a time bomb that the Jazz have always wanted to send away. Josh Howard is not bad as a rookie, but that's it. The three truly valuable first-round picks in the future look good, but

Will the Jazz, who acquired Anthony, still be a weak team that participates in the lottery every year?

Not to mention, the Clippers also sent out Alvin Williams, a big point guard in his prime. He is considered the American version of Qi Chengyan.

Because his style is very similar to Qi Chengyan, a big point guard, heavy on defense, with certain shooting ability. Like Duncan, he was a member of the Lakers dynasty. Although he had a lifelong dream of being a Laker, he was eliminated by the ruthless Jay.

Lee West is devastated.

In the third year of his career, he was sent to the Clippers, and then signed a slightly premium quasi-maximum contract extension with the Clippers. In terms of strength, he was not worth that price, but this was also the reason why the Clippers retained him.

His only way.

Now, the Clippers sent him to the Jazz if they had salary space.

The only reason that can explain this behavior can only be that Donald Sterling does not want to pay taxes.

As for Nikoloz Skitishvili, needless to say, he is a well-known parallel importer and a pure trading addition.

If the Clippers have achieved their goal of selling Anthony and untying Williams' premium contract, then the Jazz have obtained an ace that can be used to build a team around him, and they can also correct Chris Bosh and pair it with Jerry Smith.

With the UCLA system that Long has been sculpting for many years, the Jazz, which had been dormant for six or seven years, became an emerging force in the league.

In their first duel, Lu Wuxia and Anthony made up for the regret that neither of them performed at their best in the NCAA National Finals.

Anthony scored 32 points and 8 rebounds, and Lu Wuxia scored 26 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. The former scored the highest score in a single game so far in his rookie season, and the latter won the game and recorded his first career triple-double.

In the corner that no one cares about, Wade also scored 16 points.

Three scenes from this game were selected as the ABC's top ten of the night.

Louis even asked people to cut out the highlights of the matchup between Lu Wuxia and Anthony, and compressed the video quality to 360P and uploaded it to the Celtics community on Upvote.

Louie's video post became the first post in the Upvote community to receive thousands of responses.

What pleased Louis was that many of the fans who responded thanked him in the post for replacing the big screen at the Fleet Center.

Some fans of other teams said with envy: "I really hope we can also have an advanced large screen like the Fleet Center. The pixels of 1200X720 are so good. In comparison, those who insist on letting home fans watch from a distance

Team owners who use 480P pixel big screens should be thrown in jail, they don’t respect the audience in the back row!”

Among them, another person asked Louis in the post: "Coach, can we have our own cheerleading team? I'm not saying that I love the cheerleading team more than the Celtics, but the only car in the world that allows me to drive two hours

The reason why I went to the Fleet Center to watch the game was definitely because there was a group of hot girls dancing for me during the break.”

These various replies inspired Louis.

He can directly ask the fans in the community what they are dissatisfied with at the home court. As for the cheerleading team, Louis replied mysteriously: "Maybe there is."

Louis' reply was exciting, the Celtics community became more and more popular, and Upvote's popularity was slowly increasing in Boston.

As early as the beginning of this month, the number of registered users of Upvote reached 10,000, which is much faster than the development of Reddit in the previous life. The reason is also simple. The Reddit team itself is a grassroots team with no foundation, and Louis has enough resources to promote Upvote.

.

After Louis' efforts, the Celtics' November home surroundings, commemorative products and player endorsements were launched.

The products sold very well, and the net income set a new record. And this is only the first month. If the income can be maintained at this level every month in the future, the Celtics' commercialization will be considered an initial success.

Louis is keeping an unprecedented low profile, and the league is ushering in a regular season full of competition.
