The rest is just noise

In the 1989 expansion draft, the Minnesota Timberwolves had the first choice.

Small casinos everywhere have made boring bets, thinking that the Timberwolves' first choice of Ronny Seikali is inevitable.

As a result, they played a trick of surprise, and the first-round selection was not a Knicks player.

In other words, he gave the Magic the opportunity of first choice.

Why is this? No one can understand. Although Marly and Seikali are of similar levels, no matter who they are, Seikali will be chosen as the first choice.

However, he just didn't choose, he just played.

The Magic drafted Seikali without hesitation.

Next, the Timberwolves selected Dan Marley for their second selection.

Seeing this scene, Louis turned off the TV.

"Don't be sad, they're just two role players." Lorraine knew that Louis wanted to keep one of them.

"Sad? I'm not sad at all."

Lorraine just listened to his words. If he wasn't sad, why did he hold the remote control tightly?

Look at the veins on his palms

"My dear, please let go of the remote control." Lorraine smiled, "Do you want me to find a sandbag to vent your anger on?"

"Forget it, I'm really fine."

Let’s face it, whether this incident had a great impact on the Knicks is not necessarily true.:.

Marly has the potential to be an All-Star in the future, and Sekali is probably between a quasi-All-Star and a strong player, but they are destined not to have a long-term chance to play in the Knicks.

And, players like them, Louis can add in the draft every summer.

The reason for his displeasure was that things were out of control.

He originally had an agreement with Pat Williams. As long as the Timberwolves selected Seikali as he expected, he could let the Magic select Marley through a trade.

But in the end, the Timberwolves made an unexpected move. They chose neither Seikali nor Marley as the first choice. Therefore, the agreement between the Magic and the Knicks was invalidated, and Seikaly was selected first, and then the Timberwolves selected Marly.

Louis was convinced that someone was behind the scenes, and he was certain that this matter had something to do with Jerry Krause.

Because based on the grudge between Klaus and him, it is completely reasonable to secretly trick him.

Of course, even if Louis was sure in his heart, it was just a suspicion.

He will verify it through his own channels.

Once he finds out who is behind it, be it Klaus or anyone else, don't think that the matter is over.

"Honey?"

Lorraine wanted to know how the two of them would live in the world today.

Louis said that after watching the expansion draft, he would give himself a day off.

She didn't expect that Louis was immersed in his own world. Even though she called him several times, there was no response.

Her husband was seen with a sinister smile and said: "Actually, I'm fine."

"It's really their loss for "Ghostbusters" not to invite you to join the set." Lorraine joked and insulted Louis.

"It's a pity that I don't like Simmons Weaver (privately GourneyWeaver), otherwise I would seriously consider it." Louis complained, "Every time that moldy woman comes to MSG to watch football, we don't play well!"

"Don't say that, Simmons is a good man."

"OK, no more defense." Louis smiled, "I'll recover."

Afterwards, Louis stayed with Lorraine for a day, and he left New York the next day.

After each season, the league holds a board of directors meeting, also known as the annual meeting.

As long as it is not a year of collective bargaining agreement negotiations, most of the participants will be the number one or number two person in the management of each team.

As usual, if Auerbach was in Washington, Louis would visit him.

This year, Auerbach happens to be on vacation at home in Washington, where he will attend the annual meeting with Jane Walker.

The 1988 Eastern Conference Finals caused a rift in the relationship between Louis and many people in the Celtics, but Auerbach did not break with Louis because of it.

Regarding Louis' various controversial actions in the Eastern Conference Finals, he commented lightly: "He knew he had to do that."

The person who entertained Louis was Auerbach's first wife Dorothy. They had been married for decades and their relationship had been stable.

"Reed often talks about you. He said that if there were more young people like you, he would retire early." Dorothy said with a smile, "You make him feel like a has-been star."

"Okay, okay!" Auerbach suddenly became anxious, "We still have work to discuss."

Dorothy whispered: "He is shy."

Louis also replied in a low voice: "I can see it."

Auerbach came to Louis, and time passed by. Five years had passed since the young man left Boston.

When he left, Auerbach had a hunch that he would do something big in New York.

But he didn't expect that in just five years, he would change the league and end the Celtics' dominance.

谷/span> "What kind of trouble are you planning to do this year?" Auerbach snorted coldly, "I heard that you were very dishonest at the annual meeting."

Louis said modestly: "With such a respected senior like you here, I dare not say anything more. I only brought my ears this year."

"I think your little mouth is quite good at talking. Don't forget to speak later! Without your speech, the annual meeting will not be complete." Auerbach secretly mocked.

After Jane Walker arrived, the two parties exchanged a few words and set off together.

In the car, Walker talked about the expansion draft.

"Lu, do you know why Minnesota gave up its first choice?" Walker asked.

Louis suddenly became interested: "Mr. Jane, for the sake of our colleagues of seven years, please tell me."

"Look at you, you're a bitch. Is that really a big deal?" Auerbach really found out that Louis didn't like him after he left Boston.

Why didn't such a shameless person stay in Boston to take over from him?

"It is said," Volcker couldn't confirm, "that Chicago and Minnesota have reached an agreement."

Louis asked doubtfully: "It is said?"

"Yes, we can see if it is true or not," Walker said with a smile. "If there is a follow-up transaction between Minnesota and Chicago, and Minnesota seems to be the beneficiary, you can continue to dig deeper."

Everyone has their own information network. Volker had been Auerbach's deputy for ten years and his eyes were all over the league. It would be difficult to hide any information from him.

But like he said, Louis still needs confirmation.

Timberwolves general manager Billy McKinney and Jerry Krause have a personal relationship. This is certain. It would make sense if Krause used their relationship to sow discord and promised benefits.

.

If Klaus really made such a big detour just to disgust him, then Louis will admit it.

You see he is so crazy, wouldn't it be a good idea to obey him just once?

However, Louis will reserve the right to retaliate.

Isn’t that just disgusting?

Auerbach saw the corners of Louis' mouth curve upward, and gave an extremely disgusting sneer: "What evil intentions do you have?"

"Reed, you are just too thoughtful. How can I have any bad intentions? When you meet the general managers of each team later, you can ask them, who doesn't know that I am a loyal person?"

"Fuck you!"

Someone once said that extraordinary stars can control a room.

Wherever the stars go, they will trigger cheers and onlookers, and the appearance of leaders will make the place orderly and serious as if it is a state of war.

When Louis and Auerbach appeared together, people in the boardroom stopped talking.

Most people stood up and said hello to Alba.

Then there was Louis, whose authority among the crowd was astonishing.

Jerry West, Don Nelson, Frank Leyden, Lewis Shafir, Pat Williams and even some general managers who had never dealt with him wanted to have a few words with him.

The performance of these people put Klaus and Harry Weltman in an embarrassing situation.

When attending annual meetings in the past, Louis would sit directly next to Walker.

But this time, he actually walked in front of his "enemy".

"Jerry, I already know about the good things you and Billy McKinney did." Louis smiled lightly, "At the same time, I hope you know that what I don't like the most is to be treated as a fool. I think that

The person is you, because I understand why you would do this, and you have that motive. At the same time, I also hope that person is you. Regardless of whether it is you or not, as long as I confirm my identity, please believe that I will definitely return the favor."

Klaus looked ugly, "Little Lu, I don't know what you are talking about."

"Really? I'm really sorry, I misunderstood you, but you really can't blame me." Louis said sarcastically, "Being so thoughtful for a rookie is in line with your style of eating even the crumbs."

Frank Lydon burst out laughing, and everyone in the room laughed.

Klaus was so angry that he wanted to punch Louis, but at this moment, what could he do except laugh angrily?

"Would this make you feel better?" Walker smiled bitterly.

"To be honest, except for my wife, no one has made me feel so happy." Louis smiled, "I have to 'thank' that fat pig."

Volker asked: "What if it turns out it had nothing to do with him?"

"Isn't that better? I punched him, but he couldn't fight back. What I like most is to see my enemy's frustrated face when he wants to do it but can't, and when he wants to but has nowhere to do it. Don't you?

Do you think I have a good relationship with that fat pig, Mr. Jane?"

Walker said: "Reed is right, you are like a stingy version of him."

"Come on, that old man will give himself a lot of money."

Auerbach is still the most special person here.

Only he, Stern would specifically ask him to go elsewhere to briefly introduce today's agenda, and with Auerbach's approval, those agendas would be carried out smoothly.

Otherwise, the old man will bang the table to express his objection later. There are many people from Boston in the room.

As long as those people encounter something that does not affect the interests of their own team, they will regard Auerbach's attitude as a guide.

It can be said that if Stern wants to do anything, he must pass Auerbach's test, otherwise even if he passes, there will be great resistance.

The secret meeting between the two finally ended with Stern embracing Auerbach enthusiastically, and everything seemed to go well. To provide you with the fastest remaining, only noise update, Chapter 649 I Hate That Fat Pig is free to read
