The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 965 fame and fortune
You can be friends with them, but only if you are their coach.
Years later, Louis would sum up his mind-control philosophy.
John Stockton, as the first player appointed by Louie after coming to New York, has worked with him the longest and is most trusted. After he won five championships and became the greatest point guard in history, His relationship deteriorated because of something.
New York is Vanity Fair.
What is fame and fortune? Rodman summed it up very well: fame and fortune are just a watch.
The characteristic of the watch is that he turns his face ruthlessly, which is also the reason why Stockton and Louis fell out.
Now, Stockton is clearly undermining his authority, and he has to hold back his arrogance, just as he held down Isiah Thomas in Boston.
When Stockton heard Louie's "I don't care" remarks, his eyes were full of anger.
"I will not seek your forgiveness on this matter, you remember it, I have a clear conscience, if you insist on hating me for this matter, I don't care, I just want to remind you that I am still you Coach, if you don't respect me, **** me, understand?"
The nearly decade-long friendship between Stockton and Louis was wiped out.
He replied coldly, "Understood."
"Go away." Louis put his legs up on the desk.
At that moment, Louie felt much younger, as if he had returned to the days when he took over from Bill Fitch 10 years ago.
He was also a hot-blooded boy.
The watch of fame and fortune not only changed the Knicks' interior, but also smoothed out Louie's sharp corners.
To this day, Louie can be sure that conservative coaching has failed to get the team back on track.
Although the achievements of the Knicks are surprising enough, the achievement of five consecutive championships today can almost be regarded as the glory of no one else.
However, it would be unwilling to stop there.
Louie didn't want to wait years later to look back at the story and realize that he didn't do his best.
Maybe it's too late, but he's got himself together.
The aftermath of Mohammad Raouf's launch disaster is still brewing.
The league was the first to react to it.
Raouf was not suspended, but was fined $10,000 for hurting the league's image.
It was not suspended because there has never been a player in history who scolded the street in a press conference.
Even someone like Kareem who treats reporters as a virus can at best just put on a bad face and answer questions impatiently, and there is no other unacceptable move.
Moreover, Raouf's performance was not purely out of control. The Knicks' external explanation was that he was "sick".
It's a fact that Raouf has Tourette's syndrome, and it's also a fact that he fell ill that day, but the reporters and everyone who knows him know that the swear words he swears are definitely his thoughts.
Because Tourette's syndrome patients involuntarily fell ill, the mode of speech was a normal sentence with a foul language, and Raouf scolded from the onset to the public relations call to stop that day.
It can only be said that Tourette syndrome played a positive role in Raouf for the first time.
For Raouf, if he didn't scold him, it would be really hard for him to swallow that breath.
It was also Raouf suffering from a strange disease that allowed Louis to find a breakthrough.
The outside world wants to bring Raouf's unpatriotic rhythm, and even affect the entire Knicks team, they will bring Raouf's sick rhythm, and at the same time, all Raouf's incomprehensible behaviors are attributed to Tourette syndrome. Depend on.
The New York media was mobilized.
Although Raouf's words and deeds have dissatisfied many people, if this storm is not handled well, it is likely to affect the Knicks' preparations.
Benjamin Wilson's team chose to announce at this time: "Benj officially serves as Tourette's Syndrome Ambassador from today."
"I can't imagine how much pain this disease has caused you (the patients), but I've seen a lot of heartbreak in MAR... I hope you all give them more care, they are just like us Flesh and blood, those uncontrollable quivering and dirty words, are the most wonderful things in the world in my eyes."
Of course, Wilson's image is inevitably raised several levels.
Ewing's team could only watch.
This is something Ewing will never be able to do.
Even if he wanted to be an ambassador for some strange disease, no one could empathize.
Just like the feature of staying, it is called cuteness in beautiful and handsome men, and in other people, it is **.
The attacks on Raouf and the Knicks didn't stop there, but the Knicks' response was textbook, successfully diverting the public's attention.
Finally, the bad impact of a public relations accident was minimized.
Then, they can brace themselves and settle the bill with the Hornets who have driven them this far.
Tonight, when Louis and Hornets head coach Alan Bristow met, he specifically asked: "My next words may be a bit presumptuous, but I am very curious, what is your team's single-game loss record?"
Bristow is a man who has been involved in professional basketball for decades, and Louie is not asking this question out of curiosity about the history of the Hornets.
"Little
Lu, what do you mean? "
"Little
Lu? "Louis said in disgust, "Coach Bristol, do I know you well, that's what you call me?" Besides, I'm not 'little' to you at all, even a rookie second-year coach of yours dares to call me 'Little'
Lu'? "
Louie said wildly: "To you, I am a big muscle tyrant stronger than Arnold Schwarzenegger, give me some respect!"
Bristol's face changed greatly: "What did you say?"
"It seems that no one really taught you how to spell the word respect." Louis smiled grimly, "It doesn't matter, I will teach you how to spell this word."
The two sides broke up unhappily, and the Knicks' starting tonight was quite mysterious.
Louis made Stockton as a substitute, which seemed to be revenge for the latter's recent violations, but in fact, letting him come off the bench and let Raouf start is just to make the team's offense more dynamic. "
"Tonight, I just want to see that we keep scoring goals. If we can win 50 points, we will never win 49 points. If anyone is merciful, they won't have to go away with us the day after tomorrow!"
Aside from Stockton, the Knicks' other four starters are unchanged.
The Hornets on the opposite side are not weaker than the Knicks in terms of the starting book strength.
The inside core has Larry Johnson;
Dale Ellis and Glen Rice are the core outsiders, and Rex Chapman is sitting off the court;
The strength of the backcourt is not weak. Porter and Bruce Edwards, the former Blazers, both played a good performance in the backcourt last season.
In this way, the human resources of the Hornets seem to be very rich.
But it turned out that something was wrong.
When Porter met the Knicks, he had his own weakened BUFF;
Rice can only play against Wilson when he feels full;
It wasn't because of his strength that Miller pressed Ellis to start in his rookie season, but now, as an off-ball shooter, Miller has indeed surpassed Ellis;
Camp just beat Big Mom in the last game;
Ewing and Song Tao have never been a fair match. The reason Game1 can play well is because the gorilla is too kind and nostalgic. Tonight was different. The Hornets tried to use public opinion to influence the Knicks' mentality.
Fortunately, the Knicks dealt with it properly and did not let the big rhythm off the court affect themselves.
Now that he has calmed down, it is impossible for Ewing to keep his hand on Song Tao.
Beating the Hornets' center can't satisfy him anymore, he wants to break the Hornets' interior.
Louie said he was unqualified as a leader~www.mtlnovel.com~ He has to prove that he is a qualified leader.
At the beginning of the game, Ewing unexpectedly lost to Song Tao with a jump ball.
Although the teammates were unexpected, they quickly entered the rhythm of defense.
Porter swayed Raouf's defense from the outside with the ball and went straight to the basket, but Kemp and Ewing were waiting for him in the penalty area.
Kemp also bluntly chose to leave some areas empty, making Potter think it was safe there.
When he broke into the penalty area, Kemp's big hat made him understand that "it's safe here."
If the offense is not hit, it is small, but if the counterattack cannot be stopped, it is big.
As soon as Bol was capped by Kemp, the Knicks counterattacked.
It was Wilson who pushed the fast break.
He's in the middle, and Stockton usually stands on this line to instigate a wonderful defensive counterattack.
Stockton doesn't start today. In addition to being a good offense and defense, Wilson has to lead the team as a playmaker in the starting lineup.
Wilson doesn't have Stockton's big-picture view of the big picture, but locally, his ability to instigate is not trivial.
Miller caught up with the fast break and Wilson fed the ball on the spot.
After Miller hit a three-pointer, he faced the Hornets coach and asked, "Coach with a big tongue, you can bring this to the reporter. From the beginning of this game to the end of the series, we will refresh every game. Your single-game loss record!"
