The rest is just noise

Chapter 222 He can always change his face

"Georgetown plays true team basketball, that's how they play.

Future superstar Akeem Olajuwon, the prospective No. 1 pick of the University of Houston Cougars, was interviewed.

His Nigerian accent is very jarring.

What was unexpected was that he criticized his teammates immediately after the game.

"My teammates said they missed me on the court," Olajuwon laughed sarcastically, "but no one passed the ball to me when I was on the court. How many times did they 'miss' me?"

The Cougars' offensive core that night, Michael Young, shamefully defended this: "When Akeem is in the paint, he can't see what those players around him are doing and what they are encountering."

After hearing what Olajuwon said, Louis knew that he would definitely enter the draft.

Maybe he will struggle, but the upper limit of the University of Houston is here. Unless it encounters a very low competitive season, there is no hope of competing for the championship. He is already a mature player, and the only one who can improve him is the NBA.

Georgetown University, which successfully won the championship, dispelled the mystery surrounding them.

John Thompson's purpose is to care for each other and lead them to fight against the world, so only this kind of person can lead unruly people like Allen Iverson.

The way to fight the world is to make the Marvel games rough and bloody.

Their defense is not popular, not just by their opponents but also by the fans and the media.

Because Thompson advocates team isolationism, he does not allow any player to be interviewed by the media alone, let alone any form of pre-game interview. Moreover, on weekdays, he continues to instill in the players that "the world is very complicated, and we

I want to knock them out of my mind.”

As a result, African immigrants like Ewing, who was born in Jamaica and came to the United States with his family in the 1970s, but had never experienced the racist atmosphere of the 1960s, actually developed a kind of indifferent and mean attitude that hates the media, distrusts white people, and

personality.

This means that he does not teach what should be taught, and teaches everything that should not be taught.

If Guo Jing comes under the control of such a person, he will have to be taught to become Guo Fu.

Louis waited specifically until they were cutting the net and followed Auerbach into the court.

Now Louis is also a familiar face in the basketball circle. People who are interested in basketball cannot not know him, nor can they be unfamiliar with him.

"Patrick," Louis greeted Ewing for the first time, which made him frown.

Louis completely ignored the third pronunciation of Patrik and emphasized the first two pronunciations. Moreover, he pronounced it in Chinese, he did it on purpose.

Of course, Ewing could only think that there was something wrong with his English and did not find it offensive.

"Little Lu, nice to meet you." Even if he is happy, he is also happy for this year's championship.

Louis glanced at the Hoya paranoiacs in the carnival and said: "I want to talk to you alone."

"But I don't have time now." This was not prevarication, he really didn't have time.

"There will always be time." Louis smiled, "Today is your big day, enjoy it."

Ewing had heard of Louie's name, but mostly from John Thompson. At first, Thompson admired Louie because he was Auerbach's personal choice. But when Louie deliberately showed "

Thompson didn't like him when he showed his "frivolous" side.

Thompson is a media insulator, and he believes that Louis has an obvious element of performance in front of the media.

He deliberately created that image.

Thompson did see through Louis, but no one cared whether Louis was acting.

Today is the first time Louis and Thompson have met.

When Louis was a scout, he paid little attention to Georgetown University. They only reached the peak of school history in the 1980s.

By that time, Louis was already an assistant coach.

"Coach Thompson, nice to meet you."

Auerbach was worried at first that Louis would be rude to Thompson, but unexpectedly, in front of people, this guy put away all the disgust and dissatisfaction he had just shown.

Just looking at his face, he doesn't look like the head coach of the first team in the league. He is definitely an alumnus of Georgetown University.

"Me too." Thompson forced himself to grin.

Louis then greeted and said: "Your defense is the best I have seen in these years. It is a big loss for the U.S. national team not to choose you as coach."

"No, Coach Knight is more qualified than me." Thompson said confidently.

"No, no, Coach Knight is too overbearing and may not be the best candidate." Thompson was in a happy mood, and his original misunderstanding about Louis was gradually eliminated. "If you can take charge of the US team in the future, I believe

, that will be the strongest team in history."

Thompson laughed sheepishly. This time, his smile was no longer forced: "How dare I do this?"

Looking at this cheeky smile, is there anything he shouldn't do?

Louis sneered inwardly, which left a good impression on Thompson.

Auerbach watched Louis' performance and gained a deeper understanding of this guy with two faces in front of him and behind him.

K.C. Jones repeatedly mentioned in his report how powerful Louis' face-changing ability is. He didn't understand it earlier, but he has seen it today. It is really extraordinary.

Just now, he was so angry that his face turned green in the audience and he didn't watch the game, but this time he was like a fan of Thompson's idiot. What is this person trying to do?

"Coach Thompson, we must communicate more, you know what? What the Celtics lack most now is your team's defense that makes people live and die!"

"Okay, you two, it's over!" Auerbach estimated that if he continued to listen to it, he would spit it out.

So he stopped Louis and let him continue to brag. It is estimated that John Thompson will think that he is the best coach in history, and then say something to the interview such as "I should be the head coach of the CTMD national team. Choose Knight over me."

Violent comments such as "It's obviously racial discrimination".

"Reed, you shouldn't have asked me to be the head coach of the Celtics in the first place. You should have hired John. With him here, we will have the league's best offense and the league's best defense. We can expect ten consecutive championships."

!”

Thompson blushed now: "That's too much, Lu."

WTF! "Road" has been called, you two just met for the first time today, right?

Auerbach knew he had to stop Louis, "Okay, they still have something to do, let's get out of the way first."

"That's right, we can't delay John's business."

Good guy, "John" has also been called. Is this really the first time you two have met today?

When Louis and Auerbach returned to the auditorium, the entire Marvel team stood together to take photos.

"What are you planning on?" Auerbach didn't believe that Louis would be courteous to Thompson for no reason.

Louis said with a smile: "He is now a champion coach. Isn't it normal for me, a young coach without a championship, to be friendly with a respected champion coach?"

"Stop telling me these useless things!" Auerbach lowered his voice and said, "What the hell do you want to do?"

Louis said aggrievedly: "It seems that I can do anything to him, so you can't just hope that I will do something okay? How bad is my image in your heart?"

"You're the only one who talks about image to me?" Auerbach snorted.

Auerbach couldn't get the answer, so he and Louis watched the Marvel team's championship ceremony together.

Louis looked at Ewing from afar and had to sigh, what would happen if everything went as usual and Ewing was still the Ewing he knew? It seemed like nothing would happen.

This is the interesting part of the draft.

There are some potential stocks with high talent but poor skills. This group is a high-risk group.

There are some players with average talent but mature skills who can help immediately even if they cannot continue to improve.

Some players are talented but not mentally strong enough to become great.

Some players are talented and mature, but God doesn't want to see such perfect people, so injuries come.

There are also some players who have mastered the true meaning of basketball in school and have endless potential or the most perfect skills in history. Before they enter the league, countless tank teams are coveting them.

However, even this kind of players will produce "parallel imports".

Bill Russell, Elgin Baylor, Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Jabbar, Pete Maravich, Bill Walton

Germany, Magic, Sampson, Olajuwon, Jordan, Ewing, Shark, Webber, Duncan, James, Durant, Zion.

These people were given unlimited expectations before entering the league. Even if they have all the conditions to become successful, it is still very difficult to reach the heights expected by people, and there is still a certain probability of "failure".

Louis wanted to change some things, and Ewing touched some of the frustrations in his heart.

After the Marvel team's championship ceremony, Louis asked for Thompson's hotel phone number and contact information. He waited until they returned to the hotel, then called Thompson and asked if he could meet Ewing alone.

The reason? Naturally, I want to chat with the future NBA No. 1 pick.

The league's current restrictions on contact with NCAA players are not as strict as they will be in the future. The season is over, and Thompson had a pleasant chat with Louis just now, so he agreed.

If he knew Louis' true purpose, he would definitely retract this decision within half a second.
