The rest is just noise
Chapter 677 Golden Age
In December 1989, Louis sat in his office at the Blue House in New York, watching the tape idly, pretending not to know that this was the last month of the 1980s, and that he could have lived a more meaningful life.
On Thanksgiving last month, there was an unexpected power outage in New York. The family went outside and were chased and intercepted. Lorraine had a hundred people asking for her autograph. Well, it wasn't that much, but in order to truly recreate the situation, it had to be exaggerated.
Whether Louis admits it or not, even in the wealthy areas of Manhattan, he and his family are local celebrities, and many wealthy wives want to get season tickets with better seats for their men.
Louis can handle one or two people, but not when there are more people.
There are only so many good positions, and it’s too late to leave them for celebrities. Where can there be more surplus for them?
It was a bad Turkey Day anyway, and Louie decided to keep a low profile in December.
With nothing to do now, he's in his office trying to watch "The Cosbys" for the millionth time.
If you were a TV viewer in the 10s, even if you didn’t watch many American TV series, you would have probably heard of some of the most famous ones...:.
Such as "Game of Thrones", "The Walking Dead", "Breaking Bad".
In the 1980s, even people who did not watch TV would have heard of at least three TV series, and the time period must be clearly divided into the first half and the second half of the 1980s.
The first half was dominated by "The Cosby Show" and "The Cosby Show". Starting in 1985, "The Cosbys" sat on the Iron Throne and began its fifth consecutive year of ranking first in annual ratings.
This is a phenomenal sitcom. Different from previous comedies, this TV series' depiction of a successful and stable black family breaks the racial stereotypes that white people think of themselves and shows the life of an upper-class black family, bringing it to the audience.
The new experience has revitalized NBC's flagging ratings.
However, Louis could not see it no matter what.
He has tried many episodes.
To Louie, the show was disgusting because it ultimately showed a black family through the eyes of white people.
In many places, there is a disgusting perspective similar to the casting of "Shang-Chi".
For example, the protagonist is a doctor and his wife is a lawyer in New York City, although the annual income of these two people will definitely reach six figures in the 1980s!
But they still behave extremely stingy, taking advantage of every advantage they can, and their middle-class families live in even greater poverty than the Gallagher family in "Shameless".
There is also a disgusting scene where the protagonist has an in-depth discussion with his son-in-law about his daughter's sexual experience, as if he is worried that something will happen to his son-in-law if he exerts too much force in bed. If Louis were that son-in-law, he would let this guy watch.
Just like the thief's father-in-law who keeps his mouth shut and mind his own business.
In another episode, the protagonist jokingly told everyone that he had put a drug in the barbecue grill that would make people excited. The more Louis looked at the black protagonist, the more unhappy he became. Although people cannot be judged by their appearance, the more he looked at this face, the more unpleasant it became.
Like some good stuff.
The above are the disgusting points that Louis remembered when he couldn't watch, was distracted, and skipped episodes. He tried to watch "The Cosbys" again today and failed.
1989 is coming to an end, and he is destined to miss this TV series that dominated the second half of the 1980s.
To Louie, it was just a mediocre TV show that depicted a black family achieving the American dream the way white people liked it. White people liked it because it was novel enough and something that could be thrown at black people who had few other options.
A Bone Louie is very sure that Asians in the United States will not have any objection to the casting of "Shang-Chi". The problem is that this TV series depicts a story that does not reflect anyone's real life. Louie thinks about it, and it is the only one that can dominate for five years.
The reason may really be because of novelty.
Just like "Tiny Times Trilogy" had been released in China in the 1980s, the box office would not have been low.
Louie gave up and threw the Cosbys tape in the trash.
If he has watched it so many times and still feels disgusted and bored, it means that this TV series is not suitable for him. If it is not suitable, then of course it must be deleted from his life like those seriously photoshopped Japanese action movies.
.
Louis came to the training ground. Today's training was as usual, hosted by Tomjanovich.
No one can see Tomjanovich's coaching ability yet, but his training quality is definitely second to none.
For so many years, Louis' team has been able to maintain a strong combat effectiveness, which is inseparable from Tomjanovich's training.
"Patrick, have you watched "The Cosbys"?" Louise wanted to discuss this TV series with black people.
Ewing put his hands on his hips, as tired as an exhausted dog: "I saw it, I didn't like it."
"Oh why?"
"I don't like the male protagonist's peach-filled face."
It seems that Louis has the same view of the male protagonist as Ewing. They both think Bill Cosby is like a lewd thief.
It took about 2014 for the fact that Cosby was a prostitute to be confirmed. It was revealed that he had assaulted more than 60 women, but the most exciting thing was the defense words given by his colleagues, which will not be discussed here.
Expanded in detail.
Louis has many feelings about the end of the 1980s, but before that day, the Knicks need to finish the Christmas Day game.
Their Christmas Day opponent is the Portland Trail Blazers.
This was their second meeting this season. In the opening game, they beat the Trail Blazers, and there was no Ewing at the time.
In the past two months, the fighting in the east and west has been fierce.
This year is indeed a rare year of competition.
The competition in the Western Conference is particularly fierce. The Trail Blazers currently have 16 wins and 8 losses, ranking fifth in the Western Conference.
Valley/span>The Knicks are outstanding in the Eastern Conference, but in terms of record, they are not as strong as last year.
At this time, they had 21 wins and 3 losses, ranking first in the league.
As strong as the Lakers, they lost 5 games due to the fierce competition in the Western Conference.
The game between the Knicks and Trail Blazers is highly anticipated. One side is the most popular/hostile team, and the other side has the most dazzling star in the league.
The failure in the opening game was attributed by the Blazers' coaching staff to the failure to fully utilize Jordan's personal abilities.
In this battle, Rick Pitino hugged Jordan's thigh tightly, hoping to use his personal ability to change the entire situation.
The Knicks and Trail Blazers have a rotation-based defense and a switch-based defense. The two characteristics are in conflict, and the games between them are destined to have many one-on-one duels.
One-on-one is no problem, just pay attention to your positioning, don't make the space too congested, find mismatches, make good use of your tactical advantages, and use off-ball tactics to mobilize role players.
The Trail Blazers want Jordan, Drexler, and Rick Schmitz to play alone if they have the chance.
For the Knicks, Louis can't give players that much freedom.
His requirement is to play advantageous mismatches as much as possible, such as Wilson playing Terry Porter in the low post, Wilson facing up to Nance/Schmitz, McHale playing Jordan, and Stockton playing Porter in a natural mismatch.
Ewing can hit anyone in the low post (as long as he is not double-teamed), etc. Unless there is not much time to attack, otherwise he will hit the wrong position if there is one. Don't force yourself to increase the difficulty of attacking.
The Knicks' tactics were implemented in place, and while the Trail Blazers made good use of their core offensive firepower, they also did several things well.
Nance's cut, the glider's takeover after Jordan left the court, and Porter's amazing three-point shooting.
But the most incredible thing is still Jordan, whose dominant offense was brought to its fullest in this game.
50 points in the game, under the Knicks' meat grinder-like defense, he made countless hard-to-define shots. Those kind of shots are not good opportunities, or even bad shots. He can hit those kinds of shots, so he doesn't care.
How teammates position themselves, even who their teammates are, and who their opponents are.
During that time, Wilson wanted to compete with him, but his stability was not up to Jordan's level tonight.
Jordan took his offense to the extreme and was deadly in the fourth quarter.
The Knicks lost the Christmas Day game and ended their regular season matchup with the Trail Blazers.
Between them, one wins and one loses.
The Trail Blazers used a tough game to prove that they can compete with the Knicks at a high level.
Even if the coach is Pitino, the Trail Blazers are still a huge threat.
Because Jordan is already the uncrowned best player in active service.
This was the Knicks' fifth loss of the season.
They still have two games to play before bidding farewell to 1989 and welcoming the 1990s.
It was a stress-free victory against the new Magic.
In another game against the Heat, the dark horse team ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks spent three quarters establishing their advantage. Then in the fourth quarter, Ewing scored an angry dunk over Hank Gathers' head.
The Knicks ended 1989 with two straight wins.
On December 31, the last night of the 1980s, Louis and Lorraine were out on a date.
He specially arranged a romantic date place, where it was just him and Lorraine, with the sky full of stars in the background, and the night was charming.
Louis hopes to enter the 90s with Lorraine.
He didn't want to think about other irrelevant things, but his thoughts were like a long river, guiding him to keep going back in his mind.
The 1980s were a wonderful decade for him, a period he will never forget.
His career was on the right track, rising all the way in the summer of 1983, and finally reaching its peak in June of 1984. After five and a half years in New York, there were also ups and downs, and now he is the best in the professional basketball world.
Coach, he wants more.
In this impressive decade, there are many things worth remembering, including the president's almost successful assassination by a fan in public, the death of John Lennon, the popularity of MTV, the troughs and peaks of professional basketball, and the Challenger
The explosion, Coca-Cola's foolish change of formula, Michael Tyson's brutal KO of Spinks, which established him as Tomjanovich's lifelong enemy, the fall of the Berlin Wall
In fact, too many things happened, and these things were chewed up by him and integrated into his blood.
What’s waiting for him in the 1990s?
Is the story that awaits him exciting enough?
He doesn't know, but he's looking forward to it.
During the New Year, Lorraine kissed Louis on the lips, and they ushered in a new era with the sweetest moment. To provide you with the fastest remaining, only noise update, Chapter 677 Golden Age is free to read
