The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 1214 Honestly, it\'s tedious

1996 NBA? The day before the GM summit meeting, Louie set off from Los Angeles ahead of schedule.

Before Louie left, Jerry Buss approached him and asked him to take little Buss with him.

Old Bass knew that if it weren't for an important summit, someone of Louie's identity wouldn't be there in person. Now that Louie has gone, it means that this year's summit is just as important as this year's draft.

Old Buss wanted to take this opportunity to give his precious son a glimpse of the world. It would be better if he could accumulate some contacts.

"It's fine to have Jim go with me, but he'll have to listen to me in the meantime," Louie said.

Old Bass nodded without a doubt: "Of course, if he dares to make a fool of himself, you can take care of him."

"Well, if he dares to be stupid, my assistant will be replaced."

"Ah... uh... Coach Lu, don't be so serious, right?"

Louie's silence for a few seconds made old Bass nervous: "Jerry, I'm joking with you."

"Hahahaha, I heard it."

His fake smile was really heard by Louis.

Learning to make such stomach-ache jokes is one of the few virtues Louie has learned from Ewing.

Wait, is this really an advantage?

Louis and Bass Jr. hit the road together, heading for Washington.

It's not a bad thing to have little Bass as a company during the journey.

He is very good at telling the dark history of his sister to liven up the atmosphere.

But what he was talking about today was why he didn't deal with Jenny.

"You know, Sri, she wanted to come into our brothers' room when she was little, so she came into our room. She dug up a lot of secrets in our room and spread it all over, and then one day, I entered her room too. I want to find her handle."

Little Bass's intelligence operation surprised Louis: "I guess you didn't let her find out on the spot?"

Little Bass said with a bit of shame: "Hey, although my plan was very thorough, the first step failed. Who would have thought that she would want to go back to that disgusting boudoir again because of a flaw in her hairstyle. How about spending two hours braiding your hair?"

"And then you fell out?"

"Yeah, she was very angry and asked me to apologize. Isn't that hegemonic? She just came into my room and I didn't say anything."

Louis wanted to tell him that hegemony was not used that way.

"Is it possible... that women value privacy more? Not only does she not want you in her boudoir, but she also doesn't want your dad in."

"This is sexism, why can she just come into my room?"

When Louis found himself playing the piano to the cow and persuaded the pig to move forward, he could only nod his head vigorously: "You are right."

Louis finally finds out that this Wanqi is similar to his father - objectification and lack of respect for women.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Jenny sneaked into her brother's room to find black stuff and then spread it out, but it's impossible to tell the truth from the one side of the little Buss.

As far as the virtue of little Bass is concerned, Jenny can bully her at home. Louis doesn't believe it, and they fight each other at most.

Afterwards, Louis told Bass to shut up under the pretext of closing his eyes and resting. The two had no further communication before arriving in Washington.

When he arrived in Washington, Louis asked Bass to stay at the Four Seasons Hotel first, and he himself went to a Michelin restaurant called "Seasons".

Despite the mundane name, this may actually be the most prestigious restaurant in the entire Washington, D.C. area, with an award-winning breakfast and lunch, and a special location to see people coming and going.

Like government senators, foreign officials, ambassadors and corporate executives like to eat here.

David Stern is a big fan of Seasons.

Louie arrived on time, and Stern arrived ten minutes earlier.

"Please take a seat, Coach Lu, this is the only restaurant I can find in DC that can satisfy both of us.

Louis smiled: "You have a heart, Mr. President."

The great thing about eating at a fancy restaurant is that Louie is not disturbed.

The people who come to eat here are all people with identities, and basically they are here to talk about things, and there is no effort or mood to chase stars.

Stern chose a seat near the window, and Louis sat down, took a look at the menu, and found that not only Chinese food was on it, but the names were quite Chinese.

There are no beef and horse dishes like General Tso's chicken.

Louie ordered and put the menu down.

The waiter brought dessert and drinks, and Stern said first: "Coach Lu, I've been thinking these days, why did the Lakers choose a high school player with the No. 7 pick?"

Louie said with a smile: "Mr. President, please allow me to tell you a little secret. We used the No. 3 pick to select another high school player last year."

"Also, his performance did not disappoint us."

Stern said with a light smile: "For many, Kevin Garnett is a high-risk, high-reward player like Moses Malone back in the day. You're right, but Kobe isn't that level."

Louie could see that Stern was unhappy that the Lakers chose Kobe with the seventh overall pick.

Moreover, he was even more unhappy that the decision was made by Louis.

Who is Louie? A mountain in the professional basketball world, whether as a coach or as a GM, he is a banner figure in the industry.

If he succeeds by picking high schoolers, Stern is almost certain to have hordes of teams following suit. At that time, the trend of high school players giving up college to directly participate in the draft will intensify.

This is something he doesn't want to see.

"If we made a mistake in choosing Kobe with the seventh pick, then we are willing to bear the consequences. It's just a seventh pick anyway. At least Kevin and Garnett are right. Louie added jokingly, "However, thank you, Mr. President, for your concern."

Stern frowned, but he really didn't have any position to pursue this matter.

To put it bluntly, how the Lakers choose to choose is none of his business?

First understand the affairs within the purview of the Alliance President, understand?

And don't forget what you're about Louis today.

"That's right, Coach Lu, I believe your vision will not be a problem."

The trend of limiting the candidacy of high school players is a future job, not the most pressing issue of the moment.

Stern changed the subject: "Coach Lu, have we known each other for more than ten years?"

Louis changed his mind and replied, "It's been 16 years. When we first met, I was an ordinary scout in Boston."

Stern never imagined that the "little devil" who was with Reed Auerbach would have such a great influence on professional basketball in the following 16 years.

Since 1983, when it comes to professional basketball, there are several names that cannot be ignored.

Stern, Sad Bird, Louie, Yuwei, plus the Celtics and the Knicks.

And these names, in addition to Stern and the tragic master, others are directly related to Louis.

Even the title of Tragic Master was coined by Louis's team...

Louie's team has dominated the league for more than ten years. Now, the style he has developed has attracted others to learn from it. The era of superteams he opened is like a magic box, which has completely lost the hope of championship competition for civilian teams.

This is completely inconsistent with the original intention when the salary cap was designed.

Stern and those in the league office can use novelties like the salary cap to knock out old-time old men like Auerbach, but they can't limit Louis, the devil who lives in the new era.

Obviously the cause and effect of all this is on him, but Stern still needs to use the power of Louis to help himself.

This is too ironic.

Counting on Louis to weaken himself?

Of course, Coach Lu is a loyal person. As long as the benefits are enough, what is it to weaken yourself? What's more, the Lakers don't play defense now, and they're not a super team (not for now), and they can't get rid of them no matter how much they cut.

But Stern didn't think so. He felt that if he didn't sign the 1997 No. 1 pick to Louie, the other party would never help him.

"Sixteen years have passed, how do you think the alliance today is compared to sixteen years ago?"

"Mr. President, we don't need to belittle ourselves. The alliance at that time was completely incomparable to the current one." Louis himself picked up the words~www.mtlnovel.com~ However, the alliance at that time was at least a little stronger than it is now. "

"Which point?"

"Competitiveness." Louie said what Stern wanted to hear most, "It was an era of dynamism and competition for everything, Larry and Erwin had just entered the alliance, Dr. J and Karim were still at their peak, The competitiveness of the Spurs, Bucks, Rockets and other teams should not be underestimated. In those years, before the end of each season, we could not determine which team the championship crown would fall on. Now it is different. From the beginning of the season, the end was predestined, and we all knew the championship was going to be between New York, Miami and Portland.”

"Honestly, it's tedious."
