The rest is just noise

Chapter Eighteen

When Louis saw Ranbir's name, he immediately became energetic.

Of course he knows what kind of villain this is. At the same time, he also knows that this villain was elected to the All-Stars. He should have 15+10 statistics in his peak period, and he can also shoot three-pointers. He is a madman who will do anything to achieve his goal and will use any means to win.

A villain with despicable actions.

The Celtics have never been a very clean team.

If McHale's clothesline foul on Rambis in 1984 happened to other teams, no matter who it was, there would be subsequent pressure. At that time, the NBA needed this kind of physical confrontation, and, led by Kyle

McHale, who seems to be the most honest person in the world, doing this is simply too impactful.

It was a turning point in the series, as powerful as Maurice Lucas' fight with Daryl Dawkins in the 1977 finals.

One conflict completely changed the course of the series.

Louis has not seen Laimbeer's scouting report. In fact, there is no scouting report in the United States specifically written for Laimbeer.

He is a typical big white guy with no skills, slow speed and low jump.

This kind of player was fine 20 years ago, but now everyone is more picky.

The advantage of the time traveler allowed Louis to lock in Ranbir early.

While others were on vacation, Louis began a new phase of his work.

Through inquiries from several parties, he had a preliminary understanding of Ranbir.

Although he was born in Boston, he grew up in Chicago and then went to California with his father. His father, Irving, was the president of a listed company, so his family lived in the manor. However, Ranbir did not have his father's business talent, but he had

Good athletic talent.

His father "despised" him for this.

He also "despised" himself.

This made him develop a habit of self-destruction. He was admitted to the University of Notre Dame, but was expelled for violating school rules many times. Then he studied for two semesters at Owens Technical College in Toledo, Ohio, and then

It was only through his father that he found connections and returned to the University of Notre Dame.

He knew that he was destined to never be a successful businessman like his father, so he wanted to use his size to play basketball.

However, Notre Dame head coach Digger Phelps didn't appreciate him.

In order to learn more, Louis asked Auerbach for a business trip.

Secondary scouts are not like senior scouts. They cannot use funds at will and must report to the team every time they travel.

"The new season hasn't started yet, where are you going on a business trip?" Auerbach asked angrily.

Louis had a relaxing smile on his face, as non-aggressive as the young ladies standing quietly on East Street in Boston late at night: "I accidentally discovered a new target."

"Who?" Auerbach asked.

"Keep it a secret." Louis instinctively kept secrets.

Auerbach grimaced: "You'd better find out who gave you the funds!"

"Bill Laimbeer of Notre Dame!" The most important thing in life is to understand that those who understand current affairs are heroes.

Auerbach had never heard of this name before, "Who is this?"

"An unknown center with potential." Louis believed that Auerbach would not refuse to grant him funds.

Even so, Auerbach cautiously approved $3,000 in funding.

"Is it just this little money?" Louis felt that $3,000 was already a lot, but he wanted to see if he could get more out of Auerbach's pocket.

Auerbach seemed to be in a bad mood: "Either you continue to take leave, or you take the funds and get out of here!"

"Reed, you look bad."

Auerbach directly ordered him to be kicked out: "Is there anything else?"

"It's like this. I've been looking for a Chinese restaurant that best suits Chinese tastes recently, and I really found one. Do you need me to show you the way?" Louis' cheerful look made Auerbach feel like he was being deceived. "

You’ve been eating Chinese food for so many years, don’t you want to try something authentic?”

Auerbach found it hard to believe that Louis would be so kind.

"What's your purpose?"

"It really hurts me that you are like this. I regard you as a friend..." Auerbach never regarded him as a friend, and the age gap between them was too big.

Just when Auerbach thought he had misunderstood him, Louis added in a low voice: "If you could add another $1,000 to my funding before I leave..."

"There's no way!" Auerbach vowed, "This is already the travel expenses of a senior scout, don't bargain with me!"

Really nothing?

Louis didn't expect Auerbach to be so tight on the money bag, and it wasn't his money, so why was he nervous?

"Okay... there is a new Chinese restaurant on Charleston Street in West Boston, and the owner's surname is Zhou." Louis could only give Auerbach a taste of the sweetness first. "This restaurant, especially their fried noodles, OMG,

I can't describe it in words. With him, you have the whole of China!"

This is of course the world's number one bragging Jiba, but the more ruthlessly bragging about this thing, the more people believe it.

If he hadn't boasted like that, Auerbach might really not be interested.

"Got it!" Auerbach waved his hand for Louis to get out.

After Louis left, Auerbach called the finance department.

"The kid will go to your place later to get funding. I filled in the wrong number on the funding slip, so I'll give him $4,000." After telling him, Auerbach hung up the phone.

He doesn't believe that Louis can find any good prospects during this trip, he just appreciates this attitude of starting work from the first second of the offseason.

Moreover, he doesn't have time to be distracted by other things right now.

The change of ownership of the team made him uneasy. The new owner Brown is a person with a strong sense of autonomy, and the operations he performed under Brofa are a headache. If he is not his boss, Auerbach will

I'm glad that there is such a stupid guy in the league. Although he is not the one taking advantage, as long as this stupid guy exists, he will have the opportunity to take advantage.

But suddenly, this idiot became his own boss.

It felt so sour and refreshing, as if someone had given him an enema with chili pepper water.

Auerbach is not sure about other things, but he is certain that he does not want to be anyone's follower. He wants to control the operation of the team. Without this, he would rather not be in charge of the Celtics.

Even though he has been working here for 28 years.

History has seen many bosses with strong egos and astonishing control over joining the Celtics. They would always clash with Auerbach and then be driven away by him. But this time, Auerbach felt exhausted both physically and mentally. He was a little tired.

Louis had no idea that there was a huge flood within the team, and he was happy to find that the finance department had given him $4,000 in funding.

"Is there something wrong with my understanding, or did you make a mistake?" Although he really wanted to ask for more funding, he didn't want to cause others to make mistakes. "Reed's approval of $3,000 in funding means he will give $4,000?"

The person from the finance department told him dumbfoundedly: "No, Reed just called and said that the number on the check was wrong."

This old guy...

Louis was slightly moved and put the money away.

He hoped that Auerbach could go to the Chinese restaurant he recommended for dinner.

In this way, the newly opened Chinese restaurant can be publicized - let me add, it is opened by his friend - the store Auerbach has visited should be a good signboard, and then he can also use it in it.

Get $1,000 in promotional fees.

Well... although it's a bit ugly to "eat the inside out" like this, Louis is also forced by life, and he believes that everyone who stands from God's perspective will understand him.

PS: Please recommend me, please give me a monthly ticket, I will take whatever you can give me, if you don’t want me to cry, I will show it to you. 嘤嘤嘤~~~~
