The rest is just noise

Chapter 785: He is in the first grade of junior high school, and I am in the fifteenth grade.

"Little Lou thinks Billy Owens has a higher ceiling than Benj and Patrick Ewing!"

After the news came out, both Ewing and Wilson called Louis to inquire about the authenticity of the matter.

Louis certainly can't admit it.

"You have to know that today's rookies are likely to do anything in order to increase their own value." Louis explained to Ewing, "I am indeed interested in him, but I didn't expect him to say this to the outside world. Don't worry, I will never want someone with such evil intentions."

Benjamin Wilson was even more outrageous. He criticized Billy Owens from the moral high ground: "He started picking his club before he even played a game in the league. I think there is something wrong with such a person. Coach, we don't He should be brought in, we don’t need him.”

"Don't worry, Benj, can I not see what you can see?" Louis said truthfully, "I have never been interested in Billy Owens. The reason why such bizarre news came out is because of Billy Owens. Ergin thinks Billy is a once-in-a-century genius."

When Louis said this, Baylor was reporting work in front of him.

When Louis hung up the phone, Baylor said dissatisfiedly: "How can I establish my authority in front of Benj when you say such things?"

"What kind of prestige do you want from an administrator who rarely appears on the first floor?" Louis asked warily, "You want to be the head coach?"

"How is this possible?" Belle stuttered, "I I I mean yes yes yes"

"It's your uncle, let's talk business!"

"Uh, yes, I still have business." Baylor said, "Jake Sikma and Chris Jackson have completed their physical examinations."

"result?"

"Banger (Hikma's nickname) is in good health." Baylor's tone changed, "CJ's words are not ideal..."

"He has a strange disease."

Belle showed the information to Louis.

"I now know why it only took one season for Charlotte to feel like he had no future."

Louis took a look at Baylor's information.

As shown above, Chris Jackson suffers from Tourette Syndrome.

Symptoms and Diagnosis: Many people have simple tics, such as blinking repeatedly. This is a habitual movement that can go away on its own. The tics of Tourette syndrome are more complex than blinking. Children with Tourette Syndrome Can repeatedly turn head from side to side, blink frequently, open mouth, and extend neck. More complex movements include beating, kicking, throaty, snorting, and grunting. Obscene behavior may occur Or uncontrollable swearing, which usually occurs during conversation. The patient may repeat the words and phrases he just heard (imitating language). Some patients can temporarily suppress certain tics, but find it difficult. Others have difficulty controlling their tics. .When emotional, tics will be more frequent and obvious.

"What are the specific symptoms of CJ?" Louis asked softly.

"There were times where there was sudden yelling and swearing and waving of arms," ​​Baylor said.

Louis started to have a headache.

"Can I take medicine to relieve it?"

"The effect is limited, and" Baylor smiled bitterly, "CJ is a fanatical religious person. He believes that everything should be left to the Lord to decide. The only thing he needs to keep is the bottom line and principles."

Louis said helplessly: "Can you tell me the answer in words that people on earth can understand?"

"He refused to take medicine."

There is no reason not to be optimistic.

Even if Jackson played badly in his first season, he should be more patient with the No. 3 overall pick.

But Charlotte hurriedly gave him to the Celtics.

Then the Celtics traded him to the Knicks.

Belle saw Louis fall silent, thinking that this man who had never suffered a loss in a transaction was annoyed and frustrated.

If Jackson didn't have those problems, the Knicks would surely make a profit from this deal, whether it was a short-term or a long-term impact.

But now, this strange disease and his refusal to take medicine have cast a shadow on the prospects of this deal and Jackson's future.

This may be the biggest Waterloo of Little's career?

Is it normal for a person who has never suffered a loss to feel frustrated when he suddenly suffers such a big loss?

"Didn't he do a detailed inspection when he first came here?" Louis asked.

Baylor shook his head and said, "Unless he talks about it himself, or we discover it when he attacks, we can't detect it through examination."

"You mean, he told you the situation himself?" Louis was even more surprised.

Baylor nodded: "Yes, he hopes that we can fully understand his situation."

Gucuo

This at least proves that Chris Jackson is a man whose words and deeds are consistent.

Jackson's illness allowed Louis to solve the entire game's problems.

He was a little confused before, but he didn't say it out loud. Why did the Celtics send Isiah Thomas over knowing that Chris Jackson was a parallel import?

Thomas's worth is higher than the No. 5 pick + parallel import No. 3 pick.

Now we know that before acquiring Chris, the Celtics did not understand his situation. It was not until Chris confessed that the Celtics realized they had been deceived, and then Dave Gavitt came to find Louie.

"Don't be sad, even if you are as skilled as Larry Bird, you still make at least three mistakes every night."

Belle's fancy comfort made Louis laugh.

"I'm not as fragile as you think. What I'm thinking is that Dave Gavitt just took over the power and calculated a trick on me. This is Jerry West, Reed, Krause and many experienced people." Something that none of the general managers have done.”

"He should be proud of that, right?" Louis sneered.

Louis' smile was as cold as the cold wind blowing from Minnesota.

It was obviously a smile, but it made Belle shudder.

"what you up to?"

"It's been almost ten years since I left Boston, right?"

"Seven years, to be exact."

"What do you think of me?"

"Well," Baylor said, "you are a good colleague and a trustworthy friend."

"In the past seven years, I shouldn't have done anything detrimental to Boston, right?"

"Absolutely not."

Louis asked with a sarcastic smile: "Then you think it's a bit unkind for them to think of me when doing good things, but to be the first to take over the blame when they encounter trouble?"

"That's so damn unkind!" Baylor complained on Louis' behalf, "Dave Gavitt, this bastard, really lacks virtue!"

Louis leaned on the chair and crossed his legs, "Since they don't miss the old relationship, what do you think I should do?"

"Fuck him!" Belle said, completely following Louis's wishes, "We can't just let this matter go!"

Louis finally asked: "Do you think Reed knows about this?"

"That's a No. 3 pick plus two first-round picks in the future. Dave Gavitt can't complete this deal without telling him no matter what, right?"

Did Auerbach know about this?

This is what Louis wants to know most, but he won't call directly to ask.

He truly dared to say that he had never owed anything to Boston during his years in New York.

If he wanted to do something to the Celtics, by taking the second pick in 1986 and making a deal with Auerbach, who was crazy about Len Bias, to get all the benefits, the Celtics would explode that year.

His leadership of the Knicks to end the Celtics dynasty was pure competition.

Taking the entire 1991 first-round pick, Chris Jackson, and the Celtics' future first-rounders, it can be called a trade of equals.

Of course, he does not deny that he has a selfish intention to train Jackson and make the Celtics regret it, but this is still limited to the professional level.

Even though the Celtics knew that Chris Jackson had problems, they still came to him to make a deal without informing him of the situation. What kind of behavior was this?

If there is no old friendship between the two parties, Louis will consider himself unlucky if he is plotted against.

But he has close relationships with many people at Celtic.

If it were Louis, he might plot against any team, but he would never plot against the Celtics. He made his debut in Boston, and Auerbach was kind to him. This is a moral issue.

Now that this situation arises, Louis has to think carefully about how to respond.

He decided to pay back twice as much.

Assuming that Auerbach doesn't know about this, or he doesn't know about Chris Jackson's problem and only knows that he is a parallel importer, then this is Gavitt's own decision. With Gavitt's qualifications, and Auerbach vs. Kyle

With the gradual decline of the special people's control, the Green Army will be completely controlled by the former sooner or later.

Then there is no need for Louis to bear any burden in retaliating against Gavitt.

If Auerbach knew about Jackson's problem and acquiesced in it, why would Louis have to talk morally with him?

After understanding this section clearly, Louis no longer had any scruples.
