The Rest, Only Noise

Falling in love with youkanshu.com, the rest is only noise

As the Americas Championship continued, the Dream Team's days became dull.

In six games, the Dream Team outscored opponents by an average of 64 points, and they got bored with one game after another.

In the final, the Dream Team played against Argentina.

Even the tragic, who usually smiles, grows impatient as opposing defenders keep begging to swap jerseys after the game.

Tragic masters have no such interest.

Argentina was finally beaten by the Dream Team with 52 points.

As a result, their coach said: "We really enjoyed the game."

"I feel like it's just okay," Louie said in an interview. "In our bones, each of us is a competitor, but these games don't have the slightest taste of competition."

With no suspense in the US Championship, the Dream Team will get a few weeks off before the Olympics.

During this period, they have to choose a place as the training location.

In fact, when they arrived at the so-called training location, they only had two hours of training time a day, which was unanimously requested by the players.

The coaching staff disagreed, but Louie did not.

Although the function of the coaching staff is to coach, the composition of the dream team is too special. If you really treat them as players in the club or school, there will be problems.

But some people have to think that the big names on the dream team are athletes at best, no big deal.

So they privately ask for autographs for sponsors, charities, auctions, officials, politicians, fans, friends, friends of friends….

The lives of stars worth tens of millions were suddenly occupied by signatures.

This is done with good intentions, and the proceeds from the Dream Team will be used to help athletes who don't have the money to live in star-rated hotels and are struggling to live. But USA Basketball officials negotiated with the players in a "what's the point of you, work hard" tone.

Jordan valued personal time very much, and Wilson had no other bad habits except business activities. The only thing he wanted to do in his free time was to play basketball.

The arrangement of the American Basketball Association screwed them up.

Louie didn't want to cause other troubles before going abroad for training, so he negotiated with the American Basketball Association on behalf of the team, asking them not to point fingers at the players' private lives. If it continues, the players may withdraw from the team.

"I believe you should know where the problem is," Louie told basketball officials. "It's a serious offense to the players. You make it seem like they're just a normal athlete, but the truth is. Above, the wealth you have created by using their fame and status shows that they are not ordinary, they are special, but I don't feel respect in what you do."

They took Louis' words as a threat.

At the same time, Louis is regarded as a player's accomplice.

The attitude of Louis made the USA Basketball Association extremely dissatisfied, but they did not dare to turn against Louis.

They've seen Louie's energy back when they hired the Dream Team coaches.

That is to say, Louie's mentality of just wanting to play a full-scale game and leave, any coach who wants to maintain a long-term relationship with the USA Basketball Association will not fight against others like him.

It's better to have Louie come forward than Jordan or Wilson.

Once they come forward, the media will label them as self-serving groups.

If it was Louis, the media wouldn't have much to say.

Louie's approach shocked the USA Basketball Association, helped players reduce trouble, and improved his prestige on the team.

The training location for the Dream Team was later determined.

And during this period, two big things happened in the league.

Free agent Isiah Thomas was traded from the Charlotte Hornets to the Portland Trail Blazers in a sign-and-trade.

To that end, the Hornets got Terry Porter and Bruce Edwards.

Suddenly, the Blazers had a luxurious Big Three: Jordan. Barkley, Thomas, they all made the Dream Team.

And, it was Potter and Edwards who paid for it.

It is equivalent to upgrading Potter to Thomas, only Edwards lost the luxurious flank.

Then there was the amazing move by the Clippers.

They asked Olajuwon to lobby Drexler. Both of them were members back then and had a brotherhood. Now they are both middle-aged and empty-handed.

They were all sent away by their old clubs as being out of place and cancerous.

Drexler, while terrified of Clippers owner Donald Sterling's notoriety, was moved by Mutombo and Olajuwon.

Today's alliance is the era when insiders are king.

If you want to win the championship, it is impossible without a good insider.

Drexler eventually chose to sign a five-year, $15 million contract with the Clippers.

At the same time, Olajuwon also extended his contract with the Clippers for four years.

In this way, Olajuwon and Drexler will be bound to each other for five years.

The Blazers completed the lineup upgrade, and the Clippers also birdied the Phoenix in one summer.

The news that Thomas was going to the Blazers had long been out, so Louie wasn't that shocked.

It just feels that the Blazers have become stronger. If they meet in the finals next season, it will be another round of deathmatch.

It's just that he didn't expect that the Blazers, in addition to wanting Thomas, were still haunted by the reasons for their loss last season-although Wilson was an fmvp, if it wasn't for Ewing and Rodman, who dominated the rebounds in Game 7, they were powerless against the striker. The Knicks, the Portlanders are sure to get a big win.

The inside hole is not filled. Just upgrading the strength of the No. 1 position may not make the Knicks feel scared.

So even the New York media got nervous when Blazers executive Jeff Petrie announced that he would do whatever it takes to bring Lithuanian center Adavis Sabonis to the United States.

The Trail Blazers have suffered in the paint over the years, and Larry Nance is a balanced power forward, but he's no match for the supercenters that are active.

In the past, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar smashed the Portlanders, and then David Robinson smashed Nance like a toy. Now Ewing, Rodman, and Kemp have smashed the Blazers.

"I don't know if this is Portland's first attempt to bring Sabonis to America, can they succeed this time?" - The New York Times.

Louie's fear of the Blazers lasted for a few minutes.

He won't put some gratuitous pressure on himself.

If the Blazers are serious about building a frightening galactic warship, the Knicks can't stop them.

If nothing can be done, just wait and see.

The training/vacation location of the Dream Team is set in Monte Carlo, Principality of Monaco.

"Why would you choose such a place for training?" Lorraine said incomprehensibly, "I don't believe you will play basketball honestly there."

Louie laughed: "There's always a gym there, right?"

"I don't believe they train honestly, you go there and just gamble and race horses, like we go to Las Vegas."

Although the professionalism of very few players in the dream team is very problematic, but there is a large team in charge~www.novelmt.com~Louis believes that no one will mess up.

Of course, Lorraine's worries are also justified.

But going to Monte Carlo for a training/vacation was proposed by David Stern. You know, Stern was known for his opposition to gambling before the new century. He saw firsthand how gambling ruined professional basketball in every city in the '50s. So in Louie’s previous life, it was rumored that Jordan retired for the first time because he was secretly banned by Stern for two years for gambling too much.

Although this speculation is stupid, there are still many people who are willing to believe it.

Choosing a training location before the start of the Olympic Games is a special project.

You can't choose a place that's too good, you can't choose a place that's too bad, and you can't choose a place that's too biased.

Especially the third one, Jordan, Tragic, and Wilson would not agree to set the training camp in a good place in Indiana in order to cater to Bird. Conversely, if the camp is set up anywhere in North Carolina, Michigan or Chicago, others will object.

Therefore, the training location was set abroad from the beginning.

Monte Carlo was chosen because Stern's friend owns a luxury hotel here.

After the Dream Team signed a contract with Stern's friend, everything from the coaching staff to the players was allowed to bring their families on vacation to Monte Carlo.

For this result, the dream team collectively applauded.

Although the name of the training camp, but Louis is very clear, this is more like a mini vacation.

Train for 2 hours a day and then the rest of the group spend the remaining 22 hours free to play golf, gamble, visit places of interest, swim, and wait at the bar for beautiful models to arrive.
