The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 825 you deserve it

"It must feel good to completely beat the Celtics on the court, and then trade Boston's professional basketball into the abyss off the court, right?"

Reed Auerbach said suddenly, with great intention to ask for guilt.

When Louis heard the words, he suddenly wanted to sing aloud, "I've waited for a long time and finally waited until today." His attitude towards Auerbach is very strange. If this matter is to be studied carefully, is it not the fault of the Celtics?

"Reed, I don't understand what you're talking about," Louie said.

"Don't understand? I'll let you understand!"

"After last year's draft, starting with Billy Owens' refusal to play for Sacramento, don't you have anything to explain about what you've done?"

Louie pretended to be stupid and said: "Last year's draft, it feels like a long time ago, because we didn't select any player in the draft last year, so I really don't remember."

"Don't remember?" Auerbach laughed angrily, "Then let's start with the draft! You traded three draft picks you don't really need for a good guard, and then, you deliberately acted on Billy Owens. Show interest to lure us into taking the bait."

lure them into taking the bait?

Louie feels he has been wronged.

Can that be called seduction? He hadn't communicated with anyone related to Boston during the whole process. How could he be seduced?

At best, he's holding on to the reputation he's built in previous drafts to make people believe that Billy Owens has a bright future.

This is a simple, hopeful alliance's successor's sentiment, why should it be so distorted by others?

"I don't agree that I seduced you, because we haven't made any substantial progress with the Billy Owens deal." Louie's confusion made Auerbach unable to bear it, "If I say, Miami is too risky. , I'm really surprised that they gave away so many good things for Owens' signing rights."

Auerbach sneered: "Is this matter not related to you?"

"How can this have anything to do with me? How can I, the president of the New York Knicks, reach out to Miami? Reed, you can't just find someone to pay for your mistakes just because Owens isn't doing as well as you expected?"

So far, Louie is still unsure of Auerbach's role in the Chris Jackson trade, whether he was just the top decision maker who nodded his head to the deal, or whether he was the mastermind behind the meticulous planning of the entire deal.

If Auerbach just nodded in agreement with the deal, then his performance is understandable. In his view, Louie made a bargain and kicked the Celtics into the pit with a backhand.

Of course he must be angry with this perfidy.

What if he was behind that deal? That Louis really has to express admiration for his acting skills.

It's a pity that Hannibal didn't ask him to play. Anthony Hopkins is such a stinky fish and rotten shrimp - if it's Auerbach, this is what Louis wants to say the most.

"You're still arguing!" Auerbach shouted angrily. "You've been doing this since the Chris Jackson deal! You pretended to be interested in the Billy Owens deal, and then praised his talent. , muddled the water, lured other teams in. Then you didn't negotiate any further with the Sacramento side, you just wanted to let people know that you liked Owens, but you wouldn't trade for him, it started from the beginning It's your conspiracy."

"Are you going to tell me this has nothing to do with you?"

"How can it have nothing to do with me." The passing answer was almost indifferent, like a schizophrenic suddenly changed person, "Reed, what else did you find?"

Auerbach snorted coldly: "When you found out that we decided to enter the game, you saw an opportunity. I don't know what consensus you reached with Miami, but you made an unnecessary transaction to send Doug West. Arrived in Miami, just for Vernon Maxwell, you already have Danny (Ange), why do you want this lunatic? This deal doesn't make sense for either of you, you just want to give Miami an exchange rate Leigh Owens' chips!"

"That's right, right again."

Louie's voice was no longer cold, and the smile on his face grew thicker.

"Reed, what else did you find?"

"In the end Miami got what it wanted and traded the rights to Billy Owens. Everyone thought they were going to sign Owens, but Lewis Shafir, that bastard, almost got the rights to Owens for the first time. Just called Jane and asked for a trade and the chips we were trying to get Owens were rejected. Because you know since we're going to put Reggie Lewis and Steve for Billy Owens' signing rights Smith to Sacramento and of course willing to send them to Miami for Owens!"

"You planned this deal from start to finish, and I have to say you did a great job clapping everyone and even driving another team to work with you, I don't know how you treat them What benefits did you promise, but you did a really good job, isn't it all you did?!"

"I admit it all." Louie's voice was the most disgusting Auerbach had ever heard.

You can feel him smiling schadenfreudely, acting as happy as a vengeful revenge, but deliberately keeping his voice low to restrain his emotions.

He's well trained and usually doesn't laugh in this situation unless he can't help it.

Auerbach heard Louis "poof" laughter.

"On the trading field, you are trying to deceive me. Either you cheat me or I cheat you. I have seen this kind of thing a lot. This time the Celtics have made a big mistake. We have nothing to say. After an internal self-examination, it is time to get out. , the reflection of the reflection, the correction of the error, but I just can't understand, why this person is you? Why is the person who deliberately wants to destroy the Celtics is you? Tell me, why?"

"why?"

Louis laughed enough, he still didn't know what identity Auerbach used to talk to him, but for the sake of it, it's better to open up.

"Reed, it's been almost 10 years since I left Boston?"

"8 years."

"Yeah, it's been 8 years, and it seems that a lot of things have changed. I thought I would never do anything bad for Boston, but now it looks like it's just my wishful thinking. I'd like to be with you forever, sir. A traitor?"

"what do you want to say in the end?!"

Louie laughed: "Reed, you should know. If I wanted to destroy the Celtics, I would have done it as early as 1986. Maybe you've forgotten about Len Byas and how you tried to get Whatever Bias is willing to give, I can destroy you at that time, but I didn't. At that time, the Celtics were at their peak. If I wanted to destroy you, wouldn't it be more fulfilling to do it at that time? After all, no matter what No matter how you develop, it is not a threat from the Knicks.

Auerbach's heart was even more angry, and he had the urge to hang up the phone immediately, but he couldn't do that, because the chance to speak clearly with Louis might only be this time.

"Over the years, I have made a lot of enemies. You know that I am a person who is not willing to take losses, and I am also a person who will take advantage of it. However, if I want to make a deal that hurts others and benefits myself, I will never do it. Choose Boston."

"Ha ha."

Auerbach thought Louis was hypocritical because his words and deeds were inconsistent.

"Since I have this consciousness, why did I plan the Billy Owens deal?" Louie finally came to that part, "I said that I like to take advantage, and I don't like to take losses, but what I hate most is being Playing as a monkey, especially being played as a monkey by someone I totally trust."

"What do you mean?"

"Reed, if you really don't know what I'm talking about, of course I can start from the beginning. About what you said about Billy Owens, it's basically true, I did it! But it's not what you think A conspiracy to destroy professional basketball in Boston, if you have to say what it is, I prefer to call it revenge. This is my revenge.”

"Retaliation? Why? Where are we sorry for you?"

"You really don't know?"

"what are you talking about?"

If Auerbach knew, there should be no need to install it now, there is no point.

So Louie assumes he doesn't know ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Since you don't, I'll start from the beginning. The cause of the incident was the Chris Jackson trade, which happened on the premise that we had a lot of draft picks that we didn't need, and we just needed to add a backup point guard, so Dave Gavitt found it. He asked me and negotiated with me to trade CJ for the draft pick. "

"In my opinion it was a fair and equitable deal that was good for both of us, but when the deal was done, CJ confessed to us that he had Tourette's syndrome. You know that, but you Didn't reveal this to me during the trade, so that changed the nature of the trade, because in your opinion, CJ is a paranormal No. Returning three draft picks must be a sure-fire deal, right?"

Auerbach was silent.

"CJ did a great job in New York after that, I had a good leadership and it had nothing to do with you, but you played me and made me sick with the insincerity in the deal, so I'm going to take revenge, whoever orchestrated this The price of the transaction must be paid by the Celtics." Louie said coldly, "I will never apologize for this matter, so if you want me to admit my mistake, I apologize to you, unfortunately, I only have In one sentence - you deserve it."
