The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 458 Who doesn't know that Louis is a loyal person

In the office of Louie at the Blue Palace in New York, he is hosting Scott Pippen and his agent.

For now, Pippen has a quintessentially Mid-Arkansas image, looking down-to-earth, rustic, and starless.

Instead, Pippen's agent, Jimmy Sexton, is an old rival of Louie and Baylor.

Several Knicks players are his clients.

After Louie named Pippen in training camp, Sexton took the initiative to sign Pippen.

"Coach Lu, I think Scott's performance must impress you." Sexton asked, "I wonder, will you choose him?"

"Well..." Louis didn't speak, and Baylor spoke first.

"Scotty, do you know anything about the Knicks?" Baylor asked. "Do you think you're a good fit for us?"

Just as Pippen was about to answer, Sexton took the lead: "Mr. Baylor, shouldn't I ask you this? If Scotty is right for you, you should get him in the draft."

"I think it's a good fit," Louis said suddenly.

Baylor looked at him, wondering where he was singing this time.

"so..."

"Yes, Scotty is undoubtedly the best player in this draft." The background of Louie's remarks is based on the premise that David Robinson is not as good as Pippen, "So, on behalf of the Knicks, I promise you , we're going to draft Scottie with the seventh pick in the first round."

Sexton's breathing intensified.

A few months ago, Pippen was just an obscure second-round star player, and the draft prospect was probably the second, third, and fourth round picks.

Louie's endorsement, and two New York Times stories, made him famous.

Even so, the draft market has only improved to the end of the first round.

The Knicks are the first stop of their trial. Sexton never expected that Louie, who has always been cautious, would rush to give Pippen a draft promise after the first trial? And the seventh-highest pick they have in the draft?

"Jimmy, you should know that I never speak my mind." Louis laughed.

Sexton nodded and said, "Yes, Coach Lu is a rare and loyal person in this industry."

"It's good if you know, so you should also know that I'm serious." Louie laughed, "I'll be happy if you guys stop training today. If you're going to continue training, I don't care, because Scottie will definitely play for the Knicks, no team can compete with New York."

"I'm sure Scottie will play in New York in the future, but we still need to keep working out," Sexton said professionally. "This kind of thing is always the highest price."

Louis understands.

They parted, and Pippen was excited because the Knicks gave him the draft promise, and Louie himself said he was the best player in the draft.

Who is Louis? Will he talk nonsense?

If he's bullshitting, there's no need to give him such a formal draft promise.

After they left, Baylor asked inexplicably, "My dear Lu, where are you making trouble?"

"Although I have been helping Scotty improve the market, it is still too slow. This is the end of the matter. I, a loyal person, must help the market!"

The scariest thing is to take a horrible lie seriously.

This is still a loyal person... Baylor feels more and more deceitful: "Why?"

"Starting today, Jimmy Sexton can raise the price in front of various clubs with our draft promise, which means that any team that wants to get Scotty can no longer wait for him to get away with a fluke. If the post goes down, at least the team with the top six picks in the first round will be eligible to acquire him.”

This is what Louis wants to see.

Baylor still didn't understand: "Why do you want to make such a big deal if you like him so much and say he's the best player in this draft?"

Louie solved the mystery easily: "Because I never thought of getting him."

"So you're setting things up from the start to make Scottie have a lot of potential?"

"No, it's true that he has great potential, and it's true that I like him. In fact, I love a small forward like him with both offense and defense, okay?" Louie shook his head and sighed, "Unfortunately we already have Benj with John."

"Is there too many good players?"

"It's okay to have too many good players, but if you have 10 star players on your entire account, how do you allocate their minutes?" Louie asked, "That's the problem, we don't have enough time for Scotty, instead Let him be unhappy with us, it's better to let his dream fly."

Baylor really didn't understand this time.

"If you don't want him and you think he's great, why give him draft promises, why do you want to be so inspiring?"

"Because I want someone like Scotty to get into the league with the right pick, otherwise there will be a lot of fans who think they know the game better than professionals like you and me."

Baylor could already see that Louie was talking nonsense, but neither did Baylor if he didn't reveal his true intentions.

When Pippen arrived outside the Blue Palace, he was already thinking about buying a house in New York.

"Jimmy, Manhattan must be expensive, right?" Pippen asked.

"Scotty, we're not coming to New York again," Sexton laughed.

Pippen was stunned. "Why?"

"Because it's not a team for you, if you come to New York, do you know how much competition you're going to face? They've got Benjamin Wilson, there's no place for you at the three. The two. Dale Ellis is the best shooter in the league, and that's your weakness. Here, you'll never be able to start." Sexton looked back at the Blue Palace, "LittleLu likes you. , this is our chance, do you know what his nickname is?"

Pippen said with rare humor: "LittleLu?"

"No, he has another nickname - 'Light Chaser'. Legend has it that he can find players who shine and obviously, he thinks you are the star player of the future, otherwise he wouldn't be so big." Keston already has a plan, "We will use LittleLu's attention to build momentum for you across the league, Scotty, you must be in the top five in this year's draft, and then I will fight for you a hundred percent. A big contract with 10,000 annual salary!"

Pippen, from central Arkansas, never thought he could have a million dollars.

The enticing prospect made his mouth water.

What Manhattan, what Louie's appreciation, what New York Knicks, were all left behind by him.

"What should I do?" he asked excitedly.

"Listen to me, we're like this..."

Pippen, with the help of his agent, began working out on a large scale.

His second stop was Chicago.

Jerry Krause was so pleased with Pippen's workout performance that he had dinner with Pippen and promised to select him with the sixth overall pick in the first round.

Krause wants Pippen to stop there and stop trying out.

That gave Pippen's agent Sexton more confidence.

He took Pippen around the teams with the top seven picks in a matter of days.

Of these teams, only the San Antonio Spurs and the New Jersey Nets have no interest in Pippen.

Louie has a big reputation, but David Robinson is a center destined to play. Even in 2018, some teams would give up Luka Doncic, who became the Champions League MVP at the age of 18, for a center who may not be able to play but has boundless potential, not to mention 1987?

Nets general manager Harry Weltman took the call.

The Bulls' Jerry Krause suddenly called and wanted to trade the Nets' fifth overall pick with the two first-round picks he had.

What he couldn't understand was that Scottie Pippen's agent, who was working out the other day, told him that both the Knicks and the Bulls had given Pippen draft commitments.

The Bulls are one place higher than the Knicks, so there should be no worries, why suddenly trade?

"I have to reconsider this matter."

After all, Wiltman hung up the phone.

To be honest, he didn't believe Pippen had any talent, and Louie's behavior was so anomalous.

He was someone who had played against Louis, and he knew how cunning and cautious he was, if he really wanted Pippen, was it necessary to make a mess of the city?

The more you want a certain player, the more you should keep a low profile, right?

What does he mean?

Tell the world "Pippen I have to"?

Louie is not such a reckless person.

Weltman suffered a lot under Louie, he hated Louie a lot, but now ~www.novelmt.com~ he really doesn't understand what that guy is trying to do.

It's even more bizarre that Krause wants to trade the fifth pick. Did Louie get a higher draft pick? But if Louie gets a higher draft pick, what's the use of him being traded for the fifth overall pick? Or was he making the deal just to make sure he got Pippen?

That Pippen, is it worth so much attention?

Jerry Krause? Hmph, it's not surprising that the short-sighted dead fat man is good at it. Last year, the Bull died a second place.

At this time, Wiltman's phone rang again.

He picked up the phone.

"Hey Harry, long time no see, how are you doing?"

This voice, this tone, seems to make people see the tone of his smile, that hateful face has already appeared in Wiltman's mind.

Wiltman didn't even answer and hung up the phone.

⑴The Suns choose Ayton is excusable, the Kings choose Bagley... There is a story behind this, the king's boss is a 250, he interfered in the team's draft in 2014, the management wants Payton , he wanted Stauskas, tough and irresistible. The management of the king bite the bullet and chose. While Payton isn't a great pick either, it's still a lot stronger than Stauskas. The explosive program effect was in 2018. This time, the general manager Divac wanted to choose Bagley, and the boss wanted to choose Doncic. As a result, the boss didn't follow through this time, after all, he missed the mark last time... So the king chose Bagley. Well, fortunately, I'm not a Kings fan, and I started bleeding after a little bit of substitution in my brain.
