The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 1658 know destiny
,!
The Celtics ended the 2009-10 season with a record of 73 wins and 9 losses. During the playoffs, they defeated the Bulls, Heat, The Knicks and Warriors won four consecutive championships and achieved the third dynasty.
At the end of the season, ESPN reporter David Aldridge asked Louie: "Are you going to come back and continue coaching?"
Louie, who is about to turn 50, just smiled and shook his head and said, "No."
Aldridge didn't ask why, because Louis himself gave an explanation: "Even if the worst coach in the league is allowed to coach the Celtics, we are the most popular in the championship. Coaching has lost the challenge for me. 15 I don't need any more rings. I can't fit the extra rings on my feet. So, yeah, I'm not coming back, I'm retiring again."
And just like that, Louis retreated into the background with 15 rings.
And, the Celtics soon launched a successor.
Chief assistant Bill Lambiel, who has served as an assistant for Insaiah Thomas, Larry Bird and Louis for more than ten years, will become the new coach of the Celtics.
Lambiel said: "Coach Lu said that anyone can succeed in this position. I don't believe it. I must be the worst head coach in the league, so if I succeed in winning the championship, it means that he is right."
Then, Mike Budenholzer was promoted to head assistant and Steve Kerr became second assistant.
The Celtics coaching staff quickly completed the replacement work.
In July, personnel transfers occurred within the Celtics.
Patrick Ewing relinquished his position as president of operations.
Ewing's position was replaced by Bird.
Bird's original position was taken over by Pat Lailly.
Since then, Laili has completely withdrawn from the front-line coaching work and has become one of the executives of the Celtics management.
There are still those who wonder if Louie will return.
He looks young.
Whether as a team GM or as a coach, 50 years old is the golden age.
Bird explained for Louie: "Everyone on the team wants him back. He is indeed young and energetic, but since he entered the professional basketball world 32 years ago, things big and small After countless times, there is nothing on the basketball court that can arouse his interest-if there is one thing to say, it is to lead the Celtics to teach Wish's team a hard lesson. This wish has also been fulfilled this year. He All enthusiasm has been lost. Regardless, I respect and support his decision."
Then, 37-year-old Dejan Bodiloga also announced his retirement this summer.
In just two seasons with the Celtics, Bodi Loga was selected to the first team twice, and was elected MVP in the 2009-10 season, taking the title of the oldest MVP winner in NBA history to himself. In the past two years, he has perfectly filled the vacancy of Lu Wuxia, won two championships with the team, and established a dynasty.
Bodi Loga's retirement is a signal.
This may not be the end of the miracle generation, but it is definitely the beginning of their end.
The subsequent 2010-11 season was regarded as the beginning of a new era.
Early in the season, David Stern announced he would retire at the end of his tenure - and that was 2013. Although there are still three years to go, it is not far away.
The Celtic dynasty, which won four consecutive championships, once started with 20 consecutive victories under the leadership of Lambiel.
Then, the wave of injuries came, and the Celtics' prospects for the championship were full of gloom.
Kirilenko suffered a fracture and was reimbursed for the season.
Yao Yue had no major injuries, only minor injuries.
There was confusion in the role positioning between Ginobili, Luo Yin and Curry, and the uneven distribution of ball rights.
Then, because Curry hadn't learned to "use his hips instead of his ankles", he continued to suffer from lower limb injuries.
The Celtics won 65 wins in a chaotic state, entered the playoffs and stumbled to the Eastern Conference finals, and ran into the Knicks again.
The Knicks are in excellent form this year, James and Wade are both offensive and defensive.
After the first three games of the series, the Knicks lead 2-1.
Then, something strange happened.
The Knicks became unbelievably frustrated, James was actually limited by the Celtics' zone defense, and Wade was brave but alone.
In the end, James scored 8 points in a single game, but the Knicks lost a very crucial game.
In the next two games, the Knicks seemed to have lost their soul. James responded passively, Wade was irritable, and Hill's temperament became the key to burying the team. The swearing wakes the players up.
Instead, McGrady is the player the Knicks most want to win besides Wade.
In the fifth and sixth games of the Eastern Conference Finals, McGrady scored 24 points and 26 points, and cried on the spot at the end of the sixth game, "If we can be of one mind, if we don't have so many personal calculations, if some people Can concentrate on…”
4 to 2
The Knicks are out.
The three-year partnership between James and Wade in the Knicks was fruitless.
The two have reached their limit in accommodating and giving in to each other.
James is still that James, but Wade is not the Wade of his previous life.
The time is wrong, the timing is wrong.
At this time, Wade was still full of ambition, his physical function and competitive ability were at their peak, and he had no consciousness or willingness to abdicate.
And James needs a Wade who is willing to be a loyal dog, and his 8-point performance in a single game is his psychological projection.
He can also kill all directions like Wade, but he doesn't want this kind of unclear status in the team. He wants to know who he is and who Wade is. They'll figure things out.
James is still young, Wade still has a future, and McGrady and Hill's last hope of winning the championship has been wiped out.
In the finals, the Celtics played against the Lakers again.
This time, the Celtics, who have defeated the Lakers in the finals for many years, are at a disadvantage throughout.
Yao Yueban's injury, Luo Yin being suppressed by Kobe, Ginobili's abnormality, and the chain reaction brought about by Kirilenko's reimbursement for the season-the collapse of the defensive system.
Al Horford was the only Celtics player who played well in the Finals.
Bryant knew this was their best chance of beating the Celtics.
In the sixth game of the finals, Ke delivered a speech before the game, took the lead in the game, and scored several fatal magic **** at the end of the game.
114 to 105
4 to 2
The Lakers, who have resisted Kai for many years, finally ushered in victory in 2011.
Kobe won his sixth championship trophy and said in his FMVP acceptance speech: "Now, I have six rings."
That was Kobe talking trash to Garnett.
Since the two separated, they have been competing secretly, wanting to prove that they are better than each other, and the only way to prove this is to win the championship.
Over the past few years, Garnett has been like Bodi Loga in the Mavericks period in the Suns, unable to take the last step, while Kobe has repeatedly failed and finally succeeded this year.
The ensuing offseason was laced with more suspense.
But the biggest suspense has nothing to do with basketball.
The collective bargaining agreement interrupted the 2011 offseason.
In the 2011 draft, the Cleveland Cavaliers won the No. 1 lottery for the second time in three years, and selected the right man-Kyrie Irving.
At this time, Irving still looked like a star-like sunny boy, who could promise fans that he would never leave, and was full of expectations for the future, saying that he would revitalize the Cavaliers with the 2009 No. 1 pick Blake Griffin.
But the plan can't keep up with the changes. No matter how perfect the young man's plan for the future is, it can't keep up with the interference of external forces.
That's another story.
As talks between employers and employees collapsed, the lockout officially began.
A few months later, Louie celebrated his 50th birthday in Los Angeles.
In the past year, Louie basically didn't care about the team, and the matters of the Celtics were decided by Bird and Larry. They didn't even have to report to Louis.
Louie has indeed grown bored with basketball.
But he is not idle.
Played a few guest roles in TV dramas, participated in celebrity interviews, collaborated with writers to create personal autobiography, business investment, travel.
A year passed like that.
He is happy with his life and, at times, misses the pitch, but only for a short time.
He is very sure that he will not come back again, but it is a pity that he did not quit at the most suitable time.
Thinking about it now, maybe it is more appropriate for him to announce his withdrawal from the basketball world after leading the Chinese team to win the Olympic championship in 2000.
But in the next decade, he went back and forth in the NBA and won five championships.
Well, that was the age of social media.
This experience can at least have a little weight in the eyes of future fans who have no awe of their predecessors.
But when I think about it, this kind of thinking is ridiculous.
Who is he, why should he care about the future?
Wouldn't Benj care if some uninformed fans say he left Louie in the future?
Will Ewing care that some fans will use his matchup data with Sampson in the future to say that he is not worthy of being the number one center in history?
This kind of childishness doesn't matter at all.
In October 2011, as the lockout continued to spread, Louis invited Wilson, Ewing, McHale and Miller to lunch at a Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles.
The two bosses, Wilson and Ewing, have gained weight, especially Ewing. Back then, he made fun of Louie for being fat and vowed that he would never become like that.
As a result, Louis is now thinner, but Ewing's body is running wildly in the direction of a fat pig.
"If you hadn't had such a distinctive face, I would have thought that Chuck's gene mutated and suddenly grew taller."
This is called heaven and reincarnation. The person who is the least qualified to laugh at other people's weight in the Knicks dynasty is now directly criticizing Ewing.
"Patrick, how did you become like this? How did you do it?" Miller, who was serving as a live commentary on TNT, was surprised by Ewing's change.
Ewing insisted: "You think I want to do this? Is it because I'm too busy at work~www.mtlnovel.com~ and don't have time to exercise, isn't Benj getting fat too?"
"No no..." Wilson shook his head and said, "My face is just round, unlike yours, which has increased a few sizes in all directions and three-dimensionally."
McHale took the opportunity to compliment Louis, "The coach is still amazing, he looks so strong, how can he look like a 50-year-old man?"
"Nonsense, I can be strong if you tell me to do nothing all year round, Kevin, stop sucking up, even if you lick his feet, he won't teach you how to turn a team from weak to strong Team!"
"It's simple, don't mess up the draft, just make a few good trades." Miller's age-speaking skills are well versed in the explanation.
Nothing else, just talking nonsense.
"Hey, if I had known that coaching would be difficult, I wouldn't have let a good GM quit and go to Houston as an errand!" McHale complained.
"I'm afraid I can't help you with the draft, but if you want to talk about a deal, I can tell you a story." Old God Louis sat there comfortably, and asked in a calm tone: "Have I made a deal with you?" You guys talked about how I traded Kevin from Chicago?"
From this day on, Louie had his own luncheon.
