The rest is just noise

Chapter 67 It's Exciting

On the night when the Celtics lost to the 76ers, a reporter from Sports Illustrated excitedly published an article in the latest issue of the magazine.

"The new 76ers, who used defense to seal the victory and kept an eye on the offensive Boston Celtics, stopped this green whirlwind and turned it into a gentle breeze."

The entire Celtics team is having a hard time.

After Fitch returned, he became furious and scolded everyone.

He attributed the failure to the fact that the players did not work hard enough and did not have the determination to fight like the 76ers.

Louis also felt that the players needed to be scolded, and the 76ers could not give up as soon as they faced off.

However, the "scold" he understood was different from Fitch's "scold".

Fitch succeeded in silence in the locker room. When he finished cursing, broke the tactical board, kicked open the door of the locker room and walked away, no one inside still dared to speak.

"cut!"

Ranbir took off his clothes and couldn't bear the air in the locker room: "I said, can you spray some perfume? Pay attention to other people's feelings, okay?"

It was obvious that he wanted to liven up the atmosphere.

It would be awkward if no one cooperates.

Louis took over his words, "This place is yours."

"Really? I don't believe it." Ranbir said pervertedly, "Unless you dare to say that you have smelled all of us, you are unconvincing, kid!"

Louis laughed and scolded: "Damn it, you evil dog is really arrogant. Don't you know who has the most bad taste? Stop your Luyu behavior."

"Lu Yu?"

"A beauty with a big forehead, you will like her."

Louis asked someone to clean up the broken tactical board on the ground, and said to others: "If you don't want to be scolded, you have to think about how to perform better next time you play the 76ers."

"Stop messing around here, kid!"

Bird looked at everyone with a displeased face, "These bastards are as soft as dough tonight and deserve to be scolded. If you continue like this, just wear a fucking bra to the game!"

"You and Bill have a good rapport." Louis smiled.

The residual power of Fitch's Thunder Fury spread to the final game before the All-Star Weekend.

That night, the Celtics' opponent was the Chicago Bulls, who currently only had a 50% winning rate.

They had played against each other several times before, but the Bulls had lost all of them.

Tonight, the Celtics players seemed to be in a hurry to take a vacation and were not interested in playing. They were defeated by the Bulls by 22 points.

"Tonight, these guys piss me off more than the liberals!" Fitch said, not shying away from showing his political leanings.

In order to let people know how angry he is, he actually compares his players with the liberals he hates so much, which shows how strong his anger is.

No matter how angry Fitch was, the players were worried.

Because after today, most of them will have a holiday.

Louis also needs a holiday.

This year's All-Star event was held in his hometown.

Before the vacation, he still had to report to Auerbach.

Although K.C Jones was also Auerbach's man, Auerbach asked the two of them to report to him on the team's situation.

Although K.C is the chief assistant coach, his influence on the coaching staff is no longer as good as Louis.

This situation was something Auerbach did not expect. He thought it would take four or five years for Louis to be qualified as a head coach.

As a result, according to K.C's report, Louis has become Fitch's most trusted assistant.

He is the one who makes the game plan;

It was he who was in charge of the offense;

A while ago, you actually started to get involved in defense? You even created a pocket formation?

What Auerbach didn't expect was that Fitch could tolerate Louis.

Usually when Auerbach casually mentioned him, he would bite back like crazy, just because he didn't want Auerbach's hands to reach into the team like before.

Auerbach satisfied him and he could do whatever he wanted. After all, he was an academic coach and had his own ideas. He was only responsible for building the team.

But he wasn't angry at all when Louis interfered in his work like this?

After all, Auerbach had been away from the front line for too long, and he somewhat underestimated Louis's communication skills.

So before the holiday, when Louis came to Auerbach's office to report on work, he emphasized the impact of Fitch's violent temper on the team.

"There are good and bad aspects. The good side is that Bill has absolute authority; the bad side is also the same. Players will be afraid of his authority and behave restrained."

"As for the rest, he's perfect."

Hearing Louis use "perfect" to describe Fitch, Auerbach sneered: "Did you say that because he was willing to let you take over the team's offensive and defensive system?"

"No, he is a good coach, but he has a bad temper." Louis laughed.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about your business!" Auerbach pushed a stack of documents on the table in front of Louis, "Take it back and take a look."

"What's this?"

Auerbach mysteriously said: "You will know when you go back."

"Well, happy holidays." Louis said and left.

Auerbach lit up his cigar. Holiday? How can management have a holiday at this time of year?

Louis drove home and read the documents Auerbach had given him in the living room.

It turned out to be a bunch of scouting reports.

"Didn't the old man say that these things won't trouble me?" Louis read.

But the first name he saw on the list caught his attention.

"Isiah Thomas III PG, sophomore guard, Indiana University."

Although there was no photo of the player in this scouting report, he could be sure based on the description in the report that this was the person he had in mind.

The scouting report described Thomas as "the most aggressive guard I've ever seen."

"If Coach Bob Knight is a tyrant off the court, then Isiah is the embodiment of Coach Knight on the court."

"Short in stature, but possessing an invincible fighting spirit and a crazy belief in winning."

For such a well-known general, there was no need for Louis to investigate him.

What he was thinking was, why did Auerbach report these scouts to him? The answer is obvious. Thanks to the Pistons, the Celtics will once again get a top-two pick in this year's draft. By then, they will

Will once again add an elite rookie.

Lambir has been taken to Boston by Louis.

What if Isiah Thomas also joins this team?

The future of the Celtics will become unimaginable, and the Pistons team that ended the Magic Birds era and served as the ultimate stumbling block on Michael Jordan's path to becoming a god will no longer exist.

It was not until this moment that Louis discovered the impact that the problems he had discovered on M.L. Carr's compensation transaction and the series of subsequent reactions had.

This completely rewrote the pattern of the 1980s and the future of Green Kai.

At the same time, it stifled the future of a great grassroots team that fought its way to win two consecutive championships in an era of dominance by giant clubs and used itself as a sacrifice to send the best player in history to sit on the throne.

Although it was a bit unkind to say this, Louis couldn't help but scratch his cheek.

“It’s quite exciting.”
