The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 297: Those who know my heart call me worried, those who do not know me call me what I want

The latest website: December 19, 1984, the major television stations in the United States are broadcasting another international news.

This is an international news - Sino-British Joint Declaration written into Chinese history textbooks.

"The Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland handed over Hong Kong to the People's Republic of China on 1 July 1997."

Louie saw the history he learned become part of his life.

"It's been so long... Are those people still willing to recognize themselves as Chinese?" Li Xuanbing sighed when he saw the news.

It is difficult for Louis to answer. Most of the older generation recognize it, but the new generation obviously has problems with education, otherwise the later things will not happen.

As a man from the future, he doesn't judge these things. For him, it was a very important thing, they couldn't keep wandering around as citizens of British dependencies, he needed a real identity.

And this is just a statement, there are still 13 years before Hong Kong's return.

What will his life be like by then?

Louie can't tell, he hopes he gets what he wants and achieves Hall of Fame-level success in the league.

"Wow wow~~~"

The cry of the child kept Louis busy again.

He can't live in peace at home. This is another battlefield. This world is very different from the world that Louis is familiar with. It is not so electronic and Internet-based. Therefore, the pressure of being a parent is not as great as that of future parents.

With the development of technology, the pressure on parents will increase with it. The Internet, mobile phones, touchscreens... Countless tools have made things that parents used to say "I don't understand" easily prevaricate into unacceptable excuses. If you don’t understand, go online, ask experts, and post on the pedestrian street to ask netizens. If you don’t understand, someone else will.

If Louis was a native, he could have done the same, but he wasn't.

It was the first time for two generations to be a father, and he hoped that he would be perfect in everything. He even thought about changing his name to Lu Wuque for a while, and was beaten on the head by the old mother - crazy, father and son are the same name?

Therefore, when encountering problems, even if Louis is not good at it and has limited understanding, he will mobilize his personal connections to ask around. At this stage, his father's love is no less than Lorraine's mother's love. He hopes that this kid will grow into an excellent Yes, someone better than him. If parents can't make their children better than themselves, what's the point of having offspring?

He thinks so, and the deepest reason is much simpler, he loves his children.

No matter whether his love can continue in the future, whether it is always as passionate as this stage, now, his son is the person he values ​​most in this world. His importance is above all else.

In the afternoon, Louis went to work at the Blue Palace.

Tomjanovich is in charge of training with the players, and Phil Jackson does psychological counseling for Darnell Walker, who has absolutely no chance in the Knicks.

Sharif and Stockton are doing one-on-one shooting training, and Zhao Yuanzheng is still on a business trip.

Louie opened a bottle of Coke and was just about to relax with a movie.

His office phone rang.

Louis picked up the phone and said hello: "Hello, who is it?"

"littlelu?"

"I don't mind if you call me the Messiah."

Louie made a joke.

"I'm Dick Mota."

Wow, the weasel is greeting the chicken.

"Could it be Coach Mota? What brought your phone to me?"

The Liangzi of Louie and Motta is well known. Last season, he led the Celtics to slaughter the Mavericks by 81 points, and he still smells fishy in Dallas.

It is no exaggeration to say that these two are mortal enemies.

"Coach Lu, I'm calling to discuss a deal with you." Motta said very politely, "Although we have had some frictions between us, this should not affect the two teams in 'in order to make A normal interaction on the premise of being better for each other."

I'm afraid there's no one left for this.

Louie is very interested, and the Knicks now have nothing for sale except Stockton.

"This..." Louis deliberately showed a lack of interest, "You are right, Coach Mota, of course I am willing to trade with you, but our current situation is very general, and recently we have finally cultivated some The tacit understanding, if the lineup is dismantled, it will seriously affect our plan to hit the playoffs."

The plan to hit the playoffs...if Louie could see the other side, he'd see Mota's hands shaking.

That's disgusting, what an anecdote!

A team that is the second to last in the league, a team that has only won 7 games so far, actually said that it is going to hit the playoffs?

"Understood..Understood, I understand your concerns very well, and I thought about it too, so we need a deal that doesn't affect the chemistry."

"Is there a deal in the world that doesn't affect chemistry?"

Anyone who's played 2k knows that even if you trade a piece of junk that can't play, the team's morale and chemistry will still be affected.

Of course, a game is a game and cannot be compared with reality. If in reality, the team's marginalized people are really sent away, there will never be a problem in the locker room.

"Yes, we want a player who can't play in the Knicks."

As soon as he said that, Louis's heart had an outline.

No, no one really wants Darnell Walker, right?

"Coach Mota, you're not looking at Eddie Williams, are you?" Louie couldn't wait to hear what the other party asked for.

"Hehe, Coach Lu, although there are indeed some problems in our inside line, we can still support it in the short term."

When you want to reject a piece of trash you don't need, this is the emotionally intelligent answer you should immediately think of.

"Then what do you want?"

"Darnell Walker." Motta is still quite confident in this trade, Walker is the last player the Knicks need.

Louie doesn't use him very much at all, but teams other than the Knicks know that this is a powerful guard who can average double-digit points and 4 assists per game given enough time.

They are in need of an impactful backup.

"I have to say you picked a good player, Darnell doesn't really have a chance under me, I've been worried about his future, but he's still a very valuable player, I don't know, you have to take Who will deal?" Louis finished, "Wait..."

Louie rushed out of the office and shouted at Tomjanovich downstairs: "Bring me a copy of the Mavericks roster, with data!"

"Long wait." Louie returned to the phone.

"Coach Lu, I think both sides should take what they want. We want Darnell. You can say which player you want in our lineup." Motta also added, "The top seven players in the regular lineup It's not tradable."

"Understood, but, I do have limited understanding of you, why don't you recommend one or two for me?"

Motta finds that Louie is really a rookie. Maybe he is a very good coach, but he knows very little about the transaction. How can he recommend it?

"I've heard you're short on strikers and I've got a guy, Charliesittonsf, a young lad with a lot of energy."

Tomjanovich ran, gasping for breath, and put the Mavericks' roster in front of Louie.

Very energetic? Louis glanced at the data and almost didn't laugh.

Averaging 2.1 points, 1.4 rebounds, and shooting 41 percent from the field, Motta's evaluation is very energetic.

Is this guy too emotional?

"Coach Motta, it's like this, I believe Charlie is a good player, but I'm not very comfortable with white small forwards."

"Larry is also white..."

"Would you trade Larry for Darnell Walker?"

Motta failed the first flick and decided to try harder: "In this case, I can only reluctantly give up. We have an underappreciated seven-foot center Wallace Bryan (wallabsp;bryanbsp;), he every game in With 10 rebounds in 36 minutes, he's definitely a rare player."

"Is he related to 'Sweet Bean' Joe Bryant?"

"As far as I know, they have nothing to do with it."

"Uh...that's it." Louis hesitated, "Coach Mota, is there a better choice? We already have a lot of insiders, it would be a pity to bury such a good player in our team, We have to be responsible for the future of our players, what do you think?"

Mota looked around and it seemed that junk goods couldn't deceive Louie, and he didn't want it inside. It seemed that there was only the unhappy ninth show Dale Ellis (daleellissg/sf) under him.

However, after all, he is the No. 9 pick, and he has the highest potential among all the Mavs' marginals. When negotiating a deal with a young man like Louis, he wants to take advantage of it.

"Coach Mota, are you still there?"

"Uh...here!"

"Well, you also know my hobbies. I like players who are more receptive to new things." Louie asked with a smile, "Is there a guard who can shoot three-pointers? If so, let's make a deal."

Why don't you just pronounce Dale Ellis' name, bastard!

"If that's the case, I have a choice..." Motta knew that Louie wasn't that easy to fool, and if he wanted Walker, he would have to get a good bargaining chip with a good value. "Dale Ellis, he is very Being good at shooting threes is definitely what you want."

"Well, let me think about it, you wait for my call."

After speaking, Louis hung up the phone.

"Damn, I'm wrong again?" Mota angrily said, "What does he want?"

Under the circumstance that Louis doesn't want to be inside, he has said all the people in the Mavericks who can be traded. Why doesn't he agree?

Assistant coach Bob Weiss asked: "Maybe littlelu wants draft picks?"

"Expand and talk." Mota said.

"He definitely wants Dell, but Dell didn't show enough action in Dallas. The Knicks are struggling in the bottom half and will probably just give up this season, so while Dell fits his needs, he wants to It's a draft pick." Weiss said cautiously, "If we can give them a second-round pick on top of this deal, maybe..."

"No! Handing over Dell is already a reciprocal transaction. If we give the draft picks, won't we be taken advantage of?" Mota loudly refused.

Weiss did not give up his point of view: "Dick, how valuable do you think a second-round pick can be? Our goal is the playoffs. If we let other playoff teams in the West get Darnell, then we. .."

Mota thought hard and found that Weiss was right.

Take a Dale Ellis that you don't need + a second-round pick of little value for one that you can use to enhance the depth of the lineup. On the face of it, they lose a bit, but their goal is the playoffs. The Knicks' goal is the lottery, and everyone has something they want.

"Alas!" Mota picked up the phone and sighed, "This kid is really hard to fool!"

Mota called again.

At the other end, Louie answered the phone and asked as if he had just woken up, "Coach Mota, is there anything else?"

Just based on his tone, Motta concluded that if they don't increase the price, the Knicks will not consider their offer at all, Weiss is right, they want draft rights!

Come to think of it, who the **** needs Dale Ellis? A two-meter guard with a 42% shooting rate!

"littlelu, we really want to complete this transaction." Mota was very uncomfortable, he was here to trick people, why did he suffer a loss, "so, if you still have doubts, we are willing to build on the original chips. ~www.novelmt.com~ gives you an extra second-round pick."

"Those who know my heart say I'm worried, and those who don't know me say what I want." Louis said poetically, "Coach Mota, I see your sincerity, I'm very satisfied, this will be an opportunity for you and me to both Beneficial transaction."

The moment Mota hung up the phone, he felt a little regretful.

Am I **** up? he thought in horror.

But where is the mess? He sent out a player he didn't use well, and added a second-round pick that had a high probability of not getting a big return. It was indeed a bit of a loss, but as long as he could get Walker, it was worth it.

Yes, that's right, it's worth it!

Mota said to Weiss: "Tell Norman (normsonju/mavericks general manager) what I negotiated with littlelu, let him speed up the transaction process, so that the kid will not regret it!"
