The Rest, Only Noise Chapter 1433

The latest website: In the opening game of the 1998-1999 season, the league arranged for the Lakers and Celtics, the rivals, to win the jackpot.

Before the opening, in addition to the flag-raising ceremony and the ring ceremony, the Lakers will also start the retirement ceremony for the recognition of the ancient giants. Beginning this season, the Los Angeles Lakers officially posthumously recognize the history of the Minneapolis Lakers and all of their honors.

This means that the championship in the history of the Lakers +5.

According to Louis's suggestion, the team should retire several legendary players of Minghu to show their orthodoxy. The first person to retire was George McCann.

But the old man has a personality, he doesn't really want to be included in Luohu's family tree, but no matter what, he is destined to shine in the long river of basketball history as Mr. Basketball, but no one cares about the old players who fought bloodily with him back then.

Except for the current Luohu Lake, no team will recognize their glory.

Therefore, McCann agreed to retire the jersey in Los Angeles, but only if he returned the jerseys of several of his old teammates first. The Lakers made internal calculations and decided to return the No. 19 jersey of the legendary power forward Vern Mikkelsen PF in the 1950s.

The old man spent his entire career in Minghu. In the era when Zhang Lili claimed that he did not bleed or whistle, he played in 699 of the 705 games in his career. He can be called the first generation of iron man. Wan, who was selected to the second team of the best team four times, is one of the main achievements of the Minghu Dynasty.

The most important thing is that the old man is still alive and can visit the scene in person. So it was decided to be the first to return his jersey.

Mikkelsen delivered a moving speech highlighting how tough the conditions were, how deep his bond with his teammates was, and now that they're successful, they'll join the Los Angeles Lakers big names in professional basketball, but But there are many old brothers who shed blood and sweat together and can't see it.

Speaking of emotion, the old man hugged and wept with McCann who could no longer get up on the stage.

In the end, Mikkelsen announced that although his jersey has been retired, anyone who wants to wear the Lakers' No. 19 in the future does not need to ask his opinion, just wear it.

Because it would be meaningless not to wear the jersey.

Louis admires Mikkelsen very much. Although the old man's physical condition may not be able to play in the NBA in modern times, he has to take his talent overseas, but he is not bad.

But although his last words opened the door for future generations, they were too much to worry about.

No. 19 is such a biased number that even dogs don't wear it. He dared to bet Ewing's sexual fortune in the next ten years that there would not be another Lakers player wearing No. 19 in the next twenty years.

The scenery belongs to the Lakers, but the pain belongs to the Celtics.

The failure of last season proved that Hill's trade for Pippen was wrong. But, the transaction has already been done, what can they do?

Since Pippen believes that he deserves a higher tactical status, the Celtics decided to design a tactical system with Pippen as the core of offense and defense starting this season.

Getting this instruction, Chuck Daly proved its difficulty in action.

Daly chose to resign before the start of the preseason training camp, and had no intention of being a coach anymore, so he slipped directly to the TV station as a guest. The Celtics' current head coach is... (Are you ready? Take a deep breath)....

— Isiah Thomas!

Louis really has nothing to say except shouting the best son.

He remembered that Thomas was responsible for the Hill-for-Pippen deal, right? What is it called? No matter how unpalatable your own papa is, you have to eat it!

Louie couldn't forget how he shook Thomas's hand before the start.

Thomas looked smug, and Louis wanted to remind this kid how he was PUA back then. "Coach Lu, long time no see."

Thomas said hello.

"Don't say anything, Isiah, you can become a coach is simply the greatest miracle in modern NBA, coach, I can only wish you better every year."

When Louie finished speaking from the bottom of his heart, Thomas was even happier.

Sure enough, distance produces beauty. Long time no see, even Louis can speak human language.

Thomas is even more proud. If the result of this game does not end in a 46-point defeat by the Celtics, he will be even happier.

Thomas copied the four-corner offensive tactic that Louis designed for him back then and used it for Pippen. Soon, Thomas ran into a problem.

As a forward with the ball, Pippen has impeccable athletic ability, physical fitness, vision and ability to play the ball. He is definitely a good material for playing the core.

However, Pippen lacks the offensive backing ability that the ball-handling core should have.

When encountering a stalemate, Pippen has only one trick, and that is to pull away and shoot. But his shooting is like a big movie star who patronizes the TV circle, and his performance is extremely unstable.

Pippen dawdled all night, and finally scored a quasi-triple-double of 17 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists, but the team failed miserably. Apart from basic data, other high-level data reflecting player performance were appalling.

Thomas looked gloomy, not knowing what to think.

In addition to knowing that Pippen is impossible to be the core of the offense, Louis also knows that it is difficult for the Celtics to make other changes.

Because Sampson is 38 years old, he is much older than two years ago, and now he can only play 20 good minutes per game.

He can easily average 20 points per game if he focuses on offense, but it's hard to say that he has to balance defense with the Celtics.

Although Malone can still swing, and his pick-and-roll ability is also top in the league, he needs to pick-and-roll with a ball-handler who can shoot. A ball-handling core like Pippen who can split but not shoot is not suitable for partnering with any pick-and-roll finisher who likes to split things.

After the game, Louis suggested to Thomas with a good-natured appearance: "Isiah, listen to my advice, trade Scotty, the Celtics still have hope of turning around, otherwise..."

"What else?" Thomas asked.

"Otherwise..." Louie said hurtfully, "The only reason for your existence is to create a good offensive environment for Ralph, so that he can surpass Kareem in total points as soon as possible and become the NBA's all-time scoring leader. "

Thomas said, "Ralph said that he doesn't plan to quit the playoffs. If the only meaning of his career is to break those so-called records, then he might as well retire!"

Louis smiled sarcastically: "However, if you continue to coach like this, Ralph may not be able to participate in high-level confrontation in the end, and he may even have no hope of surpassing Karim in total points. Look at what you have done, four-corner attack I threw away this old routine decades ago, and you are still a baby envoy..."

"This is our internal business and has nothing to do with you!" "Then I wish you good luck for the last time."

"Goodbye, Isiah, I hope you can coach at least one full season." The relationship between Louie and Thomas can never be repaired.

The events of that year will only become more and more irreparable for people like Thomas as time goes on.

Now, Thomas wants to prove that he can do better than Louis back then, but his first move was completely denied by the opponent.

This hit Thomas hard, he calmed down and thought for a while, and then came to a conclusion.

As a coach, he is wise and will never be wrong, so who is wrong? Of course it is Pippen, a waste who needs and needs but is useless.

But then again, who traded the waste to Boston? The matter must not be pondered over, or Thomas' pride would be overwhelmed. The new season begins here.

Louie thinks this year will be a sad year~www.mtlnovel.com~The Lakers have won two consecutive championships, and all teams chasing three consecutive championships will encounter a bunch of shit.

And the Lakers have the best breeding ground for such a business.

Especially when they have a large number of young people who want to prove themselves, the friction between the self and the team, the contradiction between individual will and collective needs will spark intense sparks.

This is destined to be a troubled year, and Louis is ready to accept the challenge.

He can't solve the contradiction, let

It is also difficult for young people to settle down, but he will be confused. This skill has been honed to perfection as early as the late New York Knicks.

For him, it doesn't matter what kind of problems the Lakers have, he has only one thing left to do here.

Run in the chemical reactions of Bodhi Loga, Garnett, Kobe, Duncan, Nash, and Wilson, play perfect and beautiful basketball, and see the real temple before this contract ends.

The rest are not important.
