The Rest, Only Noise

12 million Americans tuned in to the game.

Bear in mind that cable is just beginning to catch on, this figure means that two-thirds of Americans with cable watched the game.

As for those who can't watch from TV, they can listen to the radio.

In the 1984 NBA Finals, officially known as the World Championship Series, the Celtics defeated the Lakers 118-104.

A big 1-0 lead.

"Are you confident that this perfect season is just three games away?"

A CBS reporter cordially interviewed Louie.

Louie doesn't like these reporters very much. They laugh at you today and don't know how to slander you on the news tomorrow.

Although he hates this group of people, he can't really turn his back on them.

Louie smiled lightly: "The Lakers haven't used all their strengths, so the top priority is to prepare for the next game."

Louie's rare modesty surprised the reporters.

At the press conference, it can be called the award for wonderful reporters.

Louie thought Bob Ryan's question was strange enough.

Ryan asked him, "Does the Celtics have a game philosophy of profiting by creating conflict on the court?"

Is this the question the Boston media should be asking?

"No, next one." Louis didn't even give him a good look.

Ryan is a self-proclaimed NBA prosecutor and has a selfless style, but Louie just doesn't like this kind of neutral party that seems to be righteous and kill his relatives at any time.

The New York Times, which has been dissed a million times by Louis, also sent reporters.

They have always smeared Louis before.

Even if their mouths are tougher than Da Sima's, in the face of Louis' 84-11 record, they can only boast with other media.

Ryan is weird enough, and the reporter representing the Times today is even weirder.

"LittleLu, are you an egalitarian?"

"Excuseme???"

"From what we've observed, the Celtics' game is always evenly distributed to everyone, does that mean the Celtics are playing egalitarian basketball?"

This made Louie laugh.

Is this a problem that carbon-based organisms can think of?

"John Wooden, Adolf Rupp, Reed Auerbach, Bob Knight...all successful managers, remember my words, I'm talking about all successful managers, including Respected coach Reed Holzman (the godfather of the Knicks), they all advocate the concept of equal opportunity coaching. After all, basketball is a team sport, and Chamberlain, who averaged 50 points per game, is the most popular in his personal ability. This season, in a life-and-death battle with the Celtics, but only 2 points more than Russell, what does this mean? It means that one person cannot win. come out."

Louie looked at the Times questioner like an idiot: "From your point of view, the coaches I've mentioned are probably egalitarians, and before I spread egalitarianism to the Celtics, they had the same The idea of ​​​​has spread into the league. So, I can only be regarded as standing on the shoulders of giants.”

Weird reporters will only increase.

They are not stupid and know that their problems are easy to criticize.

But they will still ask, because this will attract attention and attract attention, which will give them a second life, comparable to reborn parents.

For the Lakers, Pat Riley vehemently criticized the team's style.

"Not hard enough!"

"Not decisive enough!"

"Not enough hard work!"

"Not enough faith to compete with the Celtics!"

He criticized the team in four ways, but did his best to protect the Magician who didn't play well in the second half.

When asked by reporters in Boston what he thought of Magic's four points in the second half, Riley laughed: "Erwin never had to use points to show his value."

So the reporter then asked: "But basketball games still have to be scored in the end."

"Yeah, is anyone doing a better job of helping a teammate score than him?"

"Larry Bird?"

"Larry maybe, but if you look at the assist counts, Erwin is going to win easily."

Avoid the key and ignore the core issue, only talking about the magician's value on the offensive end.

The problem is that Magic was repeatedly shot in the air today, and his shots in the first half could punish the Celtics, but not in the second half.

Also, he knew he couldn't, so he passed the ball more.

This irresponsible dumping behavior was beautified by Riley.

He knew he had to defend the magician, and he didn't want to be the second Westhead.

When he saw the strange reporters not only making things difficult for himself, but also making things difficult for others, Louis's mood improved.

The joys and sorrows of human beings may be difficult to communicate, but the knowledge of schadenfreude is not that complicated.

As long as it is your opponent, you will be happy to see him unlucky.

That night, the Lakers also got another gift.

In the middle of the night, while they were sleeping, a fire alarm suddenly sounded outside the hotel.

All the Lakers players were woken up and forced to go outside the hotel with intense sleepiness, which turned out to be a prank.

The magician looked at Riley drowsily, trying to figure out what was going on.

"That old bastard!" Riley cursed with a livid face. "It must be Auerbach!"

Abdul-Jabbar said indifferently: "I don't like the Celtics for a reason."

Wilkins seemed even more angry. He didn't play well today, he didn't show his characteristics, and he let Bird penetrated, and the problem of poor defense was exposed again.

The Lakers coveted Wilkins' offensive ability, but if he's on the floor with Magic, defense becomes a tricky conundrum.

The Celtics would be happy if he played power forward.

Because Bird can go to the 4th position at any time and let him face Bird. As long as the space cannot be opened, Bird's defense is enough to deal with him at this stage.

The Lakers can only play Wilkins' talent at present, but cannot guide him to use his own technology with tactics.

The magician rubbed his eyes and saw the bluffing fire alarm.

"They can really play!" the magician said with a wry smile.

Someone asked: "Can we entertain them like this when we return to the home court?"

The answer is no, the Lakers do not have as hard a relationship as the Celtics in Los Angeles.

This off-site disc is one of Auerbach's methods.

He wants to let the Lakers rest well, and the fire alarm is just a slap in the face.

Anyway, they know where the Lakers hotel is, in Boston, and they have no secrets about Auerbach. So, this time it's a fire alarm, and next time it's all kinds of fake takeaway guys knocking on the door of the hotel.

They don't need to poison Jordan's pizza like the Utah courier did in 1998, they just have to quarrel with the Lakers.

On the night of Game 1, Louie and his players had no idea that the Lakers had to fight Auerbach when they returned to the hotel.

They won the first game, were happy, and thought they were going to win the second game.

In this way, with a 2-0 advantage to play the third game away, there will be no psychological burden.

Louie drove home from the garden.

There are basically fans around the community, they were drinking and celebrating, and some sent flowers directly to Louis's door for this victory.

All kinds of gifts are piled up outside the door, as if they have won the finals.

When Louis got home, Li Xuanbing was about to go to bed.

She also watched tonight's game, knowing that she knew nothing about basketball, and watching the game was completely driven by her neighbors.

She didn't want to talk about last night's game when she went out tomorrow and didn't know anything about it.

So, Louie told her a few ways to watch the game without showing her shyness in front of the neighbors.

Watch the score, pay attention to Bird and Magic's performance, and remember to think of Magic as a spoiled black man in front of the Bostonians, and Bird is God. In fact, as long as you remember the third point, you can't go wrong.

"The Lakers' No. 32 looks so-so tonight." Li Xuanbing is ball-blind, but when he provokes a problem, he hits the nail on the head. "He doesn't even dare to shoot."

Louis found the dumplings from his mother in the kitchen, and he happened to be hungry.

"What else did you find?" Louis asked.

Li Xuanbing thought about it seriously.

"Bird is more confident and dares to act. That 32 Magician, he is very hesitant." Li Xuanbing said, "Just like when I was hesitating whether to wrap leeks or shiitake mushrooms when making dumplings."

"Mom, dogs don't eat mushrooms and dumplings."

"How did the stinky boy talk?" Li Xuanbing glared at him, "I just like to eat stuffed mushrooms!"

Louie smiled awkwardly: "Sorry...Mom, you know what I mean, it's just to express my disgust for stuffed mushrooms."

"You'd better keep your mouth shut when you're outside!"

Louis doesn't know which elders have complained about his mouth.

"I know." Louis was about to heat the dumplings when he suddenly remembered an important thing, "Mom, what are the fillings for the dumplings tonight?"

"It was specially reserved for you, what kind of stuffing did you say?"

"I'm going to bed!"

The child will probably forget the mother's taste, but in turn, the mother will never forget what the child likes to eat.

Louie has now fully embraced his new identity ~www.novelmt.com~ He is Louie and no one else.

Because Louis was often beaten by his mother when he was a child, he was still a little afraid of Li Xuanbing, but as long as the conversation started, Louis' nature would be suppressed by him. At this time, he will find that Li Xuanbing is not so scary.

She's just a single mother who has to arm herself to survive in America.

Having said that, her old man's evaluation of magicians is really sharp and accurate.

Hesitant and unsure of the long shot, he disappeared from the field.

Does this description sound familiar?

Hmm... Louie hasn't heard a story about Mr. Zhan's stealth in the last few games of the 2011 Finals in six or seven years.

Stealth, it's nothing, the magician was invisible in the final long before Mr. Zhan was invisible.
