The rest is just noise

After a while, Zhao Yuanzheng came to Louis' office.

"Lao Lu, has Dennis been contacted?"

Oh, this is Mr. No. 2.

"Don't talk to me about that bastard!" Louis shouted angrily.

"It seems that we didn't get in touch..."

Even though Zhao Yuanzheng is so mean now, he only behaves like this when he is alone with Louis.

As an assistant coach, he has the biggest flaw.

He is just like Meng Xiaojun in "Partners in China", he has a phobia of speaking.

He couldn't stand at the center of the stage and calmly say what he was thinking.

Therefore, his coaching prospects have always been unclear.

"Tell me something else." Louis said.

"Others?" Zhao Yuanzheng thought for a moment, "This year's draft?"

Louis nodded and said: "This is good."

"Only Glenn Robinson remotely threatens Chris Webber's No. 1 pick prospects."

Louis asked unexpectedly: "Oh, Weber is going to run for office early?"

Zhao Yuanzheng nodded and said, "Shaq made a good start."

"No, it should be Ralph who made a good start." Louis said proudly.

Zhao Yuanzheng ignored the narcissistic Louis and continued: "Compared with last year, this year can also be regarded as a big year for the draft. Chris Webber's draft market is unparalleled, and Australia's big bamboo pole is also untouchable.

Second place…”

Louis listened to the information he already had.

He had questions about Weber.

The impression that Webber left on him in his previous life was from those years with the Kings.

But he didn't pay attention to basketball games at the time, and all he knew about Webber was indirectly gained after joining the professional basketball circle.

To him, Weber was like many stars who were famous but whose stories were unknown. Until he traveled back in time from 1978 to today, he had a deeper understanding of many stars who only knew their names but did not know their stories.

Because he knew Weber, he had some doubts about him.

If Kemp already has the mold of a perfect power forward, then Webb is a perfect power forward both physically and mentally.

Perfect height and wingspan for the 4 position;

Strong body and soft feel;

Defensive support ability;

Superior athletic ability;

impeccable technique;

This is a player who only played two years in college, but already had all the advantages as a freshman.

Weber and the Fab Five also started an era. They brought hip-hop street style to the NCAA, made big fat pants and black socks popular, and proved that "letting five freshmen play is the road to suicide" is completely alarmist.

Moreover, the Fab Five should be the earliest "team" in the history of American professional basketball. These five were all well-known figures in high school and were selected for the McDonald's All-American Team. It stands to reason that such talents should go to different teams. As a result

But they gathered at Michigan State University.

The impact they had on pop culture was unimaginable to fans decades later.

Because no new group of freshmen has brought so many changes to the NCAA and produced many intangible legacies that cannot be measured.

Since the Fab Five, hip-hop has been bound to basketball. Street-style trash talk, pulling the rim after dunking, and yelling and humiliating opponents after landing have become the norm in games.

Louis believes that the more far-reaching impact of this group of people is to stick together.

In their peak period, James, Wade and others were still little kids wearing crotchless pants. After seeing the amazing effect that the five tigers got together, wouldn't they have the idea of ​​"I will do the same in the future"?

Zhao Yuanzheng talked about it a lot.

For example, the player he hates most in this draft has announced his candidacy with a high profile, Yinsaiah Ryder.

And his favorite player, Anfernee Hardaway, who is kneeling and licking without any limits.

Zhao Yuanzheng said that Hardaway is a combination of the tragedy master and Jordan.

Louis smiled and said nothing.

In fact, talking about this year's draft with Zhao Yuanzheng was mainly to kill time.

Otherwise, he will think of Rodman whenever he is alone.

He thought again and again how this bastard had failed him.

This is far better than Dale Ellis back then.

Although Ellis had a lot of off-court troubles at the beginning, he never missed training, nor disappeared for no reason, nor was he invisible for more than half a month like Rodman.

Unreachable by phone, unable to see anyone in training, and unable to attend games, the Knicks lost a DPOY in his prime out of thin air.

This was really beyond the limit of what Louis could bear.

If the trading window hadn't been closed now, Louis would have traded Rodman even if it was a rebate.

When he drafted Rodman, he had a premonition that this day would come. But he did not expect that Rodman, who activated the Blood Succession Limit, would be so terrifying and completely out of control.

Now he is a bit like the commander-in-chief in "Bright Sword" who learned that Li Yunlong was attacking Ping'an City.

Even if Li Yunlong breaks the truth, we have to wait until the war is over before dealing with him.

Rodman is in the same situation.

Even if this player doesn't appear from now until the end of the season, Louis will have to wait until the offseason to trade him.

Zhao Yuanzheng and Louis stayed until off-duty time. The Knicks' daily training sessions started at 3 p.m. and ended irregularly because the end time was different every day, about 4:30 to 5 p.m.

Basically it won't take more than two hours.

Like Phil Jackson and Auerbach, Louis doesn't like to give players too much training.

Louis went home early today.

If he stays in the Blue Palace for one more second, Rodman's scandal will stay in his mind for one more second.

When we got home, the nanny was preparing dinner.

Louis' nanny is of Nigerian descent and can cook French and Italian dishes.

If Li Xuanbing doesn't want to cook dinner, she will do it for her, like today.

Louis originally wanted to use food to eliminate his worries, but he encountered a problem in the kitchen.

He wonders which genius invented the baby safety lock.

It only took Lu Wuxia 15 seconds to open the lock, but it took Louis 15 minutes.

If you can't open the lock, you can't get snacks.

When he couldn't eat snacks, he would think of Rodman.

He gets irritable when he thinks about Rodman.

"Mr. Lu, shall I help you?" the nanny said.

Louis said angrily: "Do you think this lock can hold me back?"

"I do not think so."

"Then don't help me!"

"OK."

Louis spent more than ten minutes hacking the baby safety lock and opening the cabinet.

There are snacks left by Lorraine inside.

Louis ate crispy potato chips, opened a bottle of Coke, and sat on the sofa to pass the time pretending to be carefree.

That night, when he had dinner with his family, he made fun of Lorraine's appearance as a village girl in "Happy Family", was concerned about Wang Zhizhi's current situation, and talked about Lu Wuxia's recent naughty complaints at school like a strict father.

Actually, it's not that serious.

Lu Wuxia is "naughty" because others call him "yellow banana".

This was pure racial discrimination, so Lu Wuxia responded with violence.

After learning the whole story, Louis changed his attitude towards criticizing his son: "Well done."

"Next time you encounter something like this, just take action."

Although Li Xuanbing does not agree with the use of violence, the best response to discrimination is violence, especially violence against children.

It's best to give that kid a psychological shadow and let him consider the consequences of discriminating against others.

After Louis had dinner, late at night, he took a bath and saw Lorraine lying on the bed.

"What are you waiting for?" Lorraine looked at Louis with a smile.

"You seem to be worried today." Lorraine said leaning on Louis' shoulder.

"You know all this?" Louis asked obscenely, "Did the mother-in-law tell you that?"

Lorraine smiled shyly: "Yes, that's what it told me."

"This shameless **, if I hadn't kept it, it would still be useful..."

Lorraine asked with concern: "What happened?"

"Don't ask, you can't help." Louis said this sincerely.

Lorraine really can't help with the team's affairs.

But he underestimated his wife.

"Is it because of Dennis?" Lorraine hit the nail on the head.

Louis looked at her in surprise: "How did you know?"

Lorraine said proudly: "Coach Lu, do you think your wife is a stupid woman who only knows about filming and acting like a baby?"

Louis joked: "I've always thought so."

"Ouch!"

Lorraine bit Louis.

"I was wrong, Marlena, you are not stupid at all, it is me who is stupid, I am a fool."

"That's pretty much it."

After Lorraine and Louis finished flirting, they became concerned about Rodman again: "Can't Dennis still get in touch?"

"It's best not to be contacted at all, let alone seeing that bastard. I just couldn't help but get angry when I heard that bastard's name."

"Perhaps Dennis has a reason?"

"No matter what the reason is, disappearing for more than half a month without any reason is unacceptable!"

Rodman used to come to Louie's house for dinner.

In Louis' family, he is like a rebellious but sensible boy. Although he writes "I am a bad person" from beginning to end, in Louis' family, he is the spirited young man in Li Xuanbing's eyes, and he admires Italy the most.

An American who cooks, a younger brother who has no blood relationship with Louis, and a good uncle of Lu Wuxia.

Lorraine did not excuse Rodman again.

She believed that Louis would not really draw a clear line with Rodman.

She wasn't sure about others, but Louis, she was too "knowledgeable".

"I'm going to have a drink of water."

As soon as Louis got out of bed, the phone in the room rang.

Louis picked up the phone.

"Coach, it's me."

The caller was Rodman, and his voice was trembling.
