The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 292: Starway

The birth of Louie's son in the first month of the 1984-85 NBA season was nothing more than an inconspicuous little event.

Far to the west, the Oregon Trail Blazers, a young name, quickly grabbed the attention of most people.

A handful call him Mike Jordan, most have started calling him Michael Jordan.

From the day he joined the Blazers, he was the centerpiece of the team.

The story of Larry Weinberg's draft day forcing frontline staff to choose Jordan has spread throughout the sports world, and Jordan lived up to the trust of his boss, who went 12-4 in the first month of the new season under a rookie coach. , surpassed the Lakers and temporarily ranked second in the Western Conference.

Weinberg's forced selection of Jordan frustrated Blazers' meritorious coach Jack Ramsey, who resigned in July.

The Blazers let head assistant Rick Adelman take over as head coach without a filing.

Adelman is not as inclined to build a team around the interior as Ramsey is.

From the day he entered the Blazers, he decided to move closer to the Lakers and the Celtics, using the super versatile wing swingman to drive the team's offense.

So Jordan averaged 30 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game in the first month of his rookie season. With Clyde Drexler, who didn't get many chances in his rookie season, he took off and averaged 14 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game. .

Add to that the Trail Blazers' already not-so-bad team: Mychal Thompson, Jim Paxson, Fat Lever, Calvin Nutt, and others, and it dramatically grew into a force to be reckoned with.

Jordan's rise put the Blazers' management in an awkward position.

It even made Ramsay, who was so angry that he resigned, that he didn't know how to deal with it.

Things are changing for the interesting side. Perhaps, this Blazers will replace the 1986 Rockets and bring the Lakers a constant challenge in the West.

After Lu Wuxia was born, Louis' life changed a bit.

For the first time, he knew that being a parent wasn't easy.

No, it's harder for him than disciplining the Celtics last season.

There are so many things to worry about, diapers, baby seats, sleeping aids, spare socks, Baba...especially Baba, the last time Louis dealt with Baba so frequently was a bad stomach.

However, for a period of time after Lu Wuxia was born, the life of Louis and his family revolved around Baba.

Baba is here. Baba disappeared, found Baba. Smell the breath of Baba. Wait for him to poop.

Louis didn't know how much time they had spent on Baba since Lu Wuxia was born.

December 1st was the first day that Louis returned to work.

Before going out, Lorraine asked, "Are you ready to go?"

"Well," Louis asked reflexively, "did the brat pull it?"

"It seems not yet."

"Not yet? No, it should be pulled at this time." Louis became nervous, "Is he sick?"

Lorraine told Louis to keep calm and not panic. However, Louis has been thinking about Baba, which delayed his work time. Louis wanted to leave now, but within a few seconds, he started to miss Baba... Okay, if I leave my son and Baba to Lorraine, my mother and the babysitter... No, what if something really happened ?

This is how Louis's life has been since he was born without flaws.

He doesn't know why his life revolves around Baba, but now he knows why decades later, young people in China don't like to have children.

Insufficient salary, competition with tingling scalp, no overtime work as good as good fortune... The mind and body have been tortured twice, do you have to give birth to a child and continue to torture in the only rest time Own?

This is really worth thinking about.

Louie's return to work is not news.

Originally, the Knicks are now in a period when they do not need a coach. They occupy the bottom-to-last position in the league, and almost no one can bring "pressure".

However, now is not as good as in the past, and there is no 50% first/second pick with the worst record.

The league abandoned the coin-flipping lottery that had been going on for more than a decade because of the disgusting, deliberate loss of some teams last year.

A lottery method with special significance: the lottery lottery is introduced.

The lottery method is like this. The names of the seven teams with the worst record in the league are written in a large envelope, and then the envelope is rolled in a crystal glass ball, and Stern randomly selects a letter to read. The name of the team in the letter.

The probability of winning the No. 1 lottery is the same for the penultimate and the seventh-to-last, both are only 14%. Therefore, putting on the worst record in the league will not increase the probability of the team winning the No. 1 lottery. What can only increase the despair of the fans.

Today is December 1st, and Louis will return to the team and go away together.

The trip is going to Chicago, another successful Stud team in the 1984 draft.

The Bulls originally wanted to choose Jordan, but the Blazers suddenly "betrayed their promises" and started "chaosing and abandoning" Sam Bowie, which is disgusting.

In a fit of rage, the Bulls launched an alternative plan and won Charles Barkley, who was astonishingly dominant on the 1984 U.S. Olympic selection team.

In the Bulls, Barkley enjoyed unlimited shooting rights, averaging 22 points, 12 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 37 minutes of playing time per game.

Barkley also has a very good helper in Kevin McHale.

McHale's attacking, four-defense, and three-defense attributes are a perfect match for Barkley's attacking, three-defense, and four-defense attributes. They complement each other perfectly, with a cheerful personality and a carefree personality. He is so reluctant type of superstar.

The two of them put the Bulls' record on the right track, but further reinforcement is needed to become competitive.

After the Knicks arrived in Chicago, he and the team split.

Louis wants to go to a restaurant alone to meet Zhao Yuanzheng, who just happened to be on a business trip to Chicago, while the rest of the team check in at the hotel first.

Zhao Yuanzheng asked Louis to meet in a three-star restaurant.

Louie likes the store's name, MoodyTongue.

How good is it? Correctly reflects how unpredictable the guest's taste buds can be. Moreover, if this name is placed on the title of some restricted-level movies, I am afraid that many people will imagine it.

"I didn't say I wanted a treat."

Louis said when he saw Zhao Yuanzheng.

Zhao Yuanzheng said excitedly: "My harvest this time is definitely worth your meal."

"Oh, what's the catch?"

For the past month, Zhao Yuanzheng has basically been out on business.

Louie gave him the task of scouting college players, and he didn't trust the Knicks' scouting very much.

Although Zhao Yuanzheng is not a professional scout, he has his own set of concepts for judging players. At the same time, Louie recognized his philosophy, at least the team scouting report he gave in the training camp was correct.

So Louis let him go out to observe college students, which is the only way for most coaches.

There is no fart experience like Steve Nash. There are only a few lucky ones who rely on NBA legends + white people = good minds to fly aircraft carriers.

Having said that, it was a pity for Louie not to see whether Nash and the Nets aircraft carrier finally won the championship with their talent, or were driven into the sea by the rookie captain and sank.

"Let's order first, I'm starving."

Zhao Yuanzheng was not seen at all, and Louis didn't even think that they were so familiar with each other.

Louie watched him order drinks, steaks, and cakes, all of which seemed to be ordinary food, which could be bought for less than 1/10 of the price in a normal restaurant, and they were well-stocked.

Michelin-certified restaurants always have a characteristic. Their presentation is very beautiful. Because there is very little food on the plate, there will be a lot of "blank", giving people a simple and clear favor.

The food may be delicious, but it's really not enough.

For Louie, the meal was not as exciting as a fried noodle dish in a Chinese restaurant.

Just when they were about to enjoy the food first and then talk about work, a woman walked into the restaurant. She had a very elegant figure, and she was not an ordinary person. She was wearing sunglasses and seemed to not want to be recognized. She was written all over her body. "Everyone knows me" confidence.

Louis just glanced at her and lost interest.

Instead, she glanced at Louis and exclaimed, "It's you!"

"Do I know you?" Louis thought it was a fan.

"Don't you know me?" She wore sunglasses and her voice was high, which probably attracted the attention of all the guests in this restaurant.

Louis couldn't help laughing: "I may know you, but you have to take off your sunglasses first."

"Ow... sorry!"

She took off her sunglasses, and what appeared in front of Louis was a perfect face made by God himself, and the typical long wavy hair of the 80s.

Louis remembered.

Jennifer Beals, they met last year at the Forum Arena in Los Angeles.

"I remembered~www.novelmt.com~ Lakers fans who were beaten up by my team in the forum last year!" Louis smiled and said to Zhao Yuanzheng, "If you watch the live broadcast of that game, you will find that Tens of thousands of Lakers fans have a straight face."

Bills retorted dissatisfiedly: "I didn't cry!"

"That's how I remember you." Louie said with a smile.

"What about you, Coach Lu, a lot of people don't understand why you jumped from Boston to New York, it's so stupid!" She actually sat down at Louie's dining table, "I think the trip to New York will be yours. The Exorcist, you’d be the Linda Blair of the NBA.”

(1) The original Barkley scored 14 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 54% shooting in 9 shots in 28 minutes of playing time per game for the 76ers. I even think I'm a little too conservative in my estimates of what Barkley might be able to do with the Bulls.

(2) Even if you haven't seen this horror movie, you've probably heard it. It's almost the American version of "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village", which has frightened generations of Americans. Blair is the supporting actress in it, playing a terrible child. Because of this movie, she was tagged like those comedians, and stardom started in "The Exorcist" and was destroyed in "The Exorcist".
