In seven preseason games, including an exhibition game, the Celtics have won the record.
On October 28, the Celtics will usher in the season opener at home.
Their opponent is the Detroit Pistons.
The night before the opener, Louis, as usual, came to Lorraine's apartment.
She prepares an Italian dinner, and one of them, a Fontina cheesecake, impresses Louis.
It is said that this is not the most authentic, the most authentic fontina cheese can only be eaten in the Valle d'Aosta region of Italy, where people make it with fresh milk and have a wonderful aroma.
"I feel like I don't need to go that far, it's enough to have you."
After Louis finished dinner, he and Lorraine came to the top floor of the apartment, where you can blow the wind, and it is also suitable for friends and couples to date - as long as it is not too shabby, you can do more things.
"Now, there are no annoying neighbors and no boring language classes," Lorraine kissed Louis's face lightly, "just you and me..."

The next day, Louis took the breakfast Lorraine prepared for him to the Greek Academy office.
He has to prepare early for tonight's game.
A few years ago, the Pistons missed out on Sampson and Isiah Thomas because of bad trades, and even Laimbeer was cut off by Louie.
However, after just one bad year, they were back in the playoffs.
James Worthy's strength was underestimated by Louis. Perhaps the star-studded Lakers affected his performance. In the Pistons, he was the core of the team. In his first season, he averaged 20 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists per game. , is an existence that cannot be ignored.
The Pistons are an interesting team. Most of their numbers are mediocre, except for two that stand out.
They're one of the best teams at limiting opponents' free throws, and at the same time making the most free throws.
This is a statistic that reflects their offensive and defensive strength.
The fact that they give less free throws to opponents is definitely not because of their good defense, because from the data point of view, the defense of the Pistons can only be regarded as a mid-level team in the league.
The defense is not good, and the number of free throws by the opponent is not too many, indicating that they do not pay enough attention to defense, or they do not give much strength to the defense.
This is very different from the "killer" piston in Louis's impression.
However, the new season has not played a game, and what the Pistons are like now remains to be tested by the game.
Before Louis goes out, he tries on the suit he just made at home.
He was an acting coach before, and he was excusable not wearing a suit. Now that he has been in office for a few months, he can't justify not wearing a suit.
"How much did this dress cost?" Li Xuanbing was very concerned about this.
People rely on clothes, horses rely on saddles, coaching the first game of the Celtics, can't have a style that kills the audience in seconds?
"I made three suits for $2,000."
"$2,000!?" Li Xuanbing cried out in pain, "You really don't know how expensive Chai Mi is! Do you need it?"
"Isn't this the first time I bought it..." Louie decided to take the blame. "Our general manager said that I represent the image of the team, and if I don't dress better, my salary will be deducted."
"Is that the old man who wears sunglasses and Shinto Taoism all day?"
"Yes, just him!"
"Hmph, that old man smokes cigars all day, and his mouth is so immoral, I think he will get oral cancer sooner or later!"
Louis did not expect that Auerbach would suffer so much malice by simply throwing the pot.
However, in the foreseeable future, Auerbach and Li Xuanbing will never meet, so letting him take the blame is a low-cost, high-reward thing.
Lorraine is also at Louie's house, and she will also be watching the game live in the garden.
And, with Louie's face, she can get the best seat.
Louis didn't want her to go to the stadium to watch the game, because as I said before, the garden is not a good stadium, and watching the game there won't be such an interesting experience.
It's just that Lorraine insisted on going, and he couldn't refuse.
Although Li Xuanbing has a bad impression of Lorraine, she is still Louis's girlfriend. She has done a good job on the surface and successfully made Lorraine think that her aunt likes her very much.
That night, the opener of the 1983-84 season, arrived.
This is a special season, and the first since the salary cap was introduced.
The league is coming out of the predicament that everyone is shouting, and the teams are making sure that they can survive, and then what needs to change is their own image.
The problem of unique products has clearly surpassed on-field violence and has become a cancer that must be eradicated.
Therefore, the alliance has launched a "three strikes and out" drug policy. This policy is rare in history. Both labor and management agree to implement a policy that is unimpeded. The league wants to improve its image and increase its commercial value, and players are fed up with being treated as a potential "poison dog."
The three-strike-out policy is well understood. If you are a first-time offender and voluntarily "turn yourself in", you can participate in withdrawal treatment (and still receive salary) paid for by the league. The same is true for the second offense. The league arranges withdrawal treatment, but the team has the right to choose to cut the player and clear his salary space. A third offense is a lifetime ban, whether the player turns himself in or not.
In the end, Michael Ray Richardson, who had the chance to become a superstar, became the top bidder for this policy.
This is something that must be remembered. Since the NBA has handled its own labor disputes, it did not shut down like the other two major leagues, making everyone a loser, and making CBS's top management more interested in the NBA. Pay attention; the popularity of cable TV has provided thousands of American families with richer channels to watch games; the finalization of the salary cap allows small teams to survive; the introduction of drug policies has ended the proliferation of unique products.
Now, the NBA has solved all the troubles preventing them from taking off, and the stage is set up. It is only a matter of time for a man from the sky to concentrate all the energy and make the world realize that "the NBA is really beautiful."
Excited fans flocked to the Boston Garden this evening.
Louis took the initiative to greet the referee today.
At present, there are still only two referees in NBA games. In previous years, they had added a third referee, but after only a few years, they were reduced to two due to manpower problems.
After all, the league at the time seemed to be running out of steam. Whether the referee could notice that the situation in the audience was not that important, just make do with it.
Tonight's referee is a black man named Hue Hollins, a rare black high-achieving student with a double degree. He was the referee for the first time and spent a few years winning "Like in the key". The moment decides the game" reputation.
It can probably be understood that way.
If he was the referee, Miller would have been called for a foul when he pushed Jordan away in 1998;
Jordan's lore of the century also has a certain probability of being spoiled;
In 2013, James' breakthrough to kill the Pacers also has the possibility of being blown away.
So Louis hopes that he won't hit a critical moment tonight anyway, and he can't give such a person a chance to play, otherwise it will be too disappointing for the fans, right?
Hollins' assistant, the deputy referee tonight is a white man named Jess Kersey. Unlike Hollins, Kersey has a much better reputation. He has almost zero bad reviews. .
"LittleLu looks more mature in formal clothes than before."
The game will not be broadcast on CBS tonight, but will be broadcast by New England WBZ-TV, a cable station in every Massachusetts area.
The person who praised Louie's outfit is familiar to everyone, but it's the best guard in Celtics history, Bob Cousy.
His partner was Tom Heinsohn, who retired from the front line for several years.
Louis walked in the middle, and saw Chuck Daly, who claimed to only wear tailored suits and always had a slicked back hair.
"It's an honor to meet you, Coach Lu." Daly said harshly with a smile, "We'll bring you some trouble tonight."
Louis responded indifferently: "There is never too much trouble, come on."
Louie's first impression of Daly was that he was young and frivolous. After all, he was not a player at his age, and it was almost impossible to sit in that position.
But he just sat down. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
Daly, like Louie, was an assistant coach under Billy Cunningham for four years before becoming head coach, but he has a rich professional basketball resume and, when he became head coach, he was 51 years old. For coaches, it is "very young".
But when I meet Louis... I really don't know whether to be jealous, angry, or sigh that people's fates are different?
At least one thing is certain, many coaches, especially those who have worked so hard to get to the head coach position, don't like Louie.
His age is so dazzling!
Louie came to the team members with a smile and brought Daly's words to him: "Coach Daly said that he will cause us some trouble tonight, I hope you'd better not be troubled by them, or you will be in the training session tomorrow. See what real trouble is."
