The Rest, Only Noise

Louie shook hands with Daly before leaving the field.

"I hope you can show mercy next time you play against each other." Louis regards the Pistons as an abnormal team at this stage.

If the Pistons are regarded as their regular level, they will suffer in the future.

"Don't say such things when you win the game, disgusting." Daly snorted softly.

Louie said pessimistically: "This may be the only game we will win in the next month."

Daly felt like he was eating shit: "Thank you, you're a little pessimistic, but if this happens, I'll be even more disgusted."

This kind of thing is not disgusting to anyone. The only game that the team that has lost for a month in a row won is actually their own team.

"You're right to think so, if I were you, going back tonight would make James Worthy give up the idea of ​​being Bird No. 2 or Magic No. 2." Louie gave a piece of advice, "It won't be good. result."

They separated.

Louis accepted the interview from the front, then returned to the locker room and asked the inside brothers Cummings and Bannister, who scored 39 points and 24 rebounds, to go to the media interview room with him for an interview.

The first question was from Bill Wallace, a New York Times reporter who Louie had never met. If he played basketball, he must have been good defensively.

"Coach Lu, will this wonderful victory increase your confidence in the new season?"

"Won't."

"why?"

"Because our opponents are not in shape, this game can't reflect the real strength of our two sides." Louie brought out the King of New York, "Bernard only scored 22 points today, and we won by 16 points. It is very difficult for me. Imagine Bernard not scoring 30 points and we win easily."

Bannister has received a lot of media attention.

As a seventh-round pick this year, he usually has to sit on the bench and wear it. Unexpectedly, Cartwright's season reimbursement has become an opportunity for his promotion.

He scored 14 points and 11 rebounds tonight, and scored a double-double in his career debut, which is very good.

Pat Cummings treats reporters with more of a perfunctory attitude.

He doesn't like the media, typical arrogant white man.

There has only been one white man in history who was so rude that white journalists hated it.

That man is Rick Barry, and everyone knows he's a scumbag, but there are still Sports Illustrated writers who baptize Barry with one of the best character features in Illustrated history, "The Cry of the Wild." land.

Barry said in that article that he longed for people to love him as much as Havlicek, but everyone hated him.

At this point, he has at least self-knowledge.

People like Cummings typically act recklessly on the basis of their correct skin color. As long as they don't die, the media will forgive them on the basis of their skin color.

From today, Louis is officially settled in New York.

At the beginning of the season, the Knicks' good start was grabbed by an international headline.

The assassination of Indian Prime Minister Indira has attracted worldwide attention.

This international explosion came at just the right time.

The Times did not let reporters come to the front line for several days in a row, and they all wanted to follow up on this big news.

It was during this time that the Knicks began their losing streak.

This is the most painful period, and Louis has to look like he can't do anything.

He wants to make the fans desperate.

Only by first making the fans desperate and confirming that this season is hopeless, the subsequent "lose the present, win the future" plan can proceed smoothly.

Otherwise, if the show starts now, it will be questioned: If you can win, why not win?

Once hope is gone, fans will turn their attention to next year's draft.

After the Knicks' six-game losing streak, Bernard King suddenly gained self-esteem and threw a sentence: "I'm so fed up!"

Then he scored 50 points against the Kansas Kings, who were aiming to compete with the Knicks for the league's squad leader, and led the team to end the losing streak.

"I hope Bernard is in as good a form as he was tonight in a few days."

The Knicks' next opponent is the Boston Celtics, Louie's old club.

So he would say that.

A lot of people questioned his decision to jump from Boston to New York, and he can't say right now that he came to New York to build a team that could beat the Celtics.

Louie lets his players play against the Celtics as much as they want, even if they lose, they have to lose with dignity.

He didn't think about winning, the gap was too big.

In particular, Bernard King suddenly had diarrhea on the day of the game, which directly gave the Knicks 1% of their winning hopes.

That night, the Knicks started a little shabby.

They took out the starters of Sparrow, Tucker, Orr, Cummings, and Bannister.

Opposite the Celtics are the unreasonable Thomas, Bird, Maxwell, Sampson, Laimbeer, four big and one small, Bird playing shooting guard.

K.C. Jones suddenly recovered, full of confidence in the strength of the team.

He should be confident. Without the King of New York, the Knicks can only play team basketball. In the end, four of the team scored in double figures, but no one exceeded 20 points.

As a result, the opposing Celtics scored in double figures. Bird scored a large triple-double with 28 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists. Before the end of the game, he threw a three-pointer with his left hand and said to Louie: " Jumping to this kind of team for $2 million is for you!"

Louie said plainly: "Sooner or later, the Knicks will become a respectable team. You just need to know that the Celtics also came here. That's enough."

"I only know that since I came to Boston, we are a strong team." Bird is true.

He was very upset about Louie's jumping ship.

That feeling, like Louie was saying to them, he valued $2 million more than coaching a great team.

But in Bird's impression, Louis is not such a person, and he is not short of money.

Returning to Boston, he suffered a fiasco, but Louis was in a much better mood.

There are many fans who came to the Garden as a guest and applauded him. As long as the Knicks are not a threat to the Celtics in the East, Louie's status in the hearts of fans will continue to remain.

Bob Ryan didn't let Louie go.

At a press conference that night, Ryan questioned about Louie's departure: "There are still a lot of people who want to know your motives for leaving Boston. Is it really just because of money?"

"Is it hard to understand?" Louie would rather be thought that he was leaving for money. "The job of a coach is not as stable as that of a player. It is very likely that I will lose my job in a few years. This money is enough for me to live comfortably. Live the rest of your life."

Because of Louie's words, Ryan ranted about his lack of ambition in the next day's article.

"I declare, I got LittleLu wrong! I thought he was the next Reed, but he's not! He's just one of many short-lived talent coaches!"

On November 24, the Knicks were going through a losing streak, and Louie asked the team for a few days off.

The reason is a personal matter.

Only Tomjanovich and Debusschere knew what he was going to do.

It's really just a personal matter, and Lorraine's due date is just a few days away.

For the first time since the summer of 1982, when Louis met Lorraine in Italy, he had a few days entirely with Lorraine.

Louis has been extremely nervous these days.

It was clearly not him who was going to give birth. He was so nervous and sensitive that he had to ask Lorraine how he felt.

He learned over the phone about the Knicks' games and practices these days.

The training atmosphere was good, and we didn't win a game.

November is almost over and they have only won one game.

The fans were basically desperate and began to see the team as a joke. When the media recovered from the assassination of Indira, the Knicks had fallen to the bottom of the Eastern Conference.

The unidentified media thought that Louis's leave was because he didn't want to face reality.

He went from the best team in history to one of the worst teams in the league.

"Even LittleLu couldn't turn a bunch of dead wood into gold, he was never the Messiah."

The New York Times has not forgotten their grievances with Louis, and when it's time to step on it, step on it.

Louie has blocked outside information. Recently, many teams have called Debusschere and want to make a deal with the Knicks.

The most daring one is the Lakers.

They came up with Rambis + Byron Scott + multiple first-rounder Bernard King.

Louie knew that the Lakers' first-round picks were worthless until Magic retired, so they were trading the top three small forwards in the league for Rambis and Scott and a few late first-round picks.

This is a downright loss-making business, and it's not that it can't be sold, and it's unnecessary.

There are also teams asking for Darnell Walker, who was refrigerated by Louie.

Louis doesn't care about these things now.

He let Debusschere deal with it properly, and if he was undecided, he would wait until his child was born and he would come back.

Debusschere has been sprayed enough by the media recently, and the Knicks have lost like this. The important reason why Louie has not been ridiculed by the whole city is that the management has done little during the offseason, and it will not be with him until August. Complete the contract.

If the coach takes less than three months from signing to the start of the season, a poor record is normal.

So Louie was just said to have no magic to turn scrap iron into gold, and fans and the media recognized his coaching ability.

He signed a five-year contract. If he wants to spray, there will be more opportunities in the future. Now he has to spray Debusschere, who is not working with money.

November 29, the day Lorraine unloaded.

Louis drove her to the hospital in a car, and Li Xuanbing saw Louis' appearance, and went to the hospital's vending machine to buy ice Coke to stimulate him.

"Don't worry, now the medical level is so advanced, UU reading www.uukanshu.com will be fine, you should think about becoming a father in the future." Li Xuanbing was very excited about her upcoming grandmother, "Think about a name. Yet?"

If Louis didn't think about it, she would have to do it for her.

"Um."

"what is it call?"

"Flawless," Louis said. "The road is flawless."

"Crepely...as you like."

Childbirth usually takes four to eight hours, and Lorraine took an intermediate value and got the job done in six hours.

When Louis saw the child, a warm current swept through his body.

This is an experience that he has never had in his two lives - at the age of 24, he became the father of a 3KG baby boy.

Louis will always remember this day, an ordinary day for many people.

On November 29, 1984, his child, Lu Wuxia, was born.
