The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 150: Scam call, sincere

"The rest, only noise new( Find the latest chapter!

Louie is not a control freak, he will leave some things he is not good at to professional people.

For example, arranging and guiding player training.

He is not a multi-professional basketball player himself, and there is no way to point out the deficiencies in the players' usual training, and can only make suggestions based on their game content.

If you really want to train, you have to come from professionals like Cowens and Tomjanovich.

When Louis returned to the office, the table was full of tactics that were being designed and tactics that had been completed.

At present, in addition to four sets of offensive systems and two sets of defensive systems, the main offensive tactics of the Celtics are the tactics of the "L" series.

At present, this tactic has 36 routines. Compared with the modern NBA team that claims to have hundreds of tactics in the team in the future, the Celtics have relatively few routines.

Louie doesn't believe the idea of ​​hundreds of plays, because there are really not many players who can memorize so many plays, and even if you divide that number by 10, you can't always memorize them.

Most players can only play a dozen tactics, and only defenders need to memorize more tactics. The Celtics are a little bit different. The center of their offense is Bird, so it's not the guard who writes the most plays.

Even Bird didn't necessarily remember all the tactics.

According to Louie's observation, Bird likes to control the offense according to his own feelings. Therefore, many of the Celtics' wonderful positional battles are arbitrary, just because other players remember the tactics, and Bird can see this pattern at a glance. How to fight.

Therefore, if there is a chance, Louie must ask Doug Molai to be his assistant coach. He may not be suitable to be the coach of a championship team, but he can definitely be the offensive assistant of the championship team.

Louis was bored and wanted to go out for a walk, but the phone in the office rang.

"Hello." Louis said hello.

"Is it Coach Lu?" The caller's voice was very nice. Louis remembered many scam calls he received in his previous life, and the other party's voice was very nice.

Louie said lightly: "If you're here to sell cable TV, I won't talk nonsense with you. As I said earlier, don't expect me to pay unless you can broadcast restricted content on TV."

The other party was speechless for a while.

"Coach Lu, I'm here to discuss a business with you." The caller then began to introduce himself, "I'm John MacLeod, the head coach of the Phoenix Suns."

Hearing the name, Louis became vigilant.

"Coach McLeod, you and I have some business to discuss, don't you want me to help you find college students?" Louis said modestly, "I'm not a scout now."

"No, Coach Lu, I want to make a deal with your team, we each take what we need."

Louis was more vigilant.

How does the current league run during the season? The aftermath of 1982 has been passed down to this day, and the head coach still has the supreme power to formulate transaction plans and programs. As long as it is not too outrageous, the management will basically agree and promote the completion of the transaction.

The Celtics are a few exceptions.

As bossy as Bill Fitch, no deal can be struck without Auerbach's approval.

Moreover, McLeod, because he has pitted Auerbach, is basically synonymous with "dog bastard" in the mouth of the old man.

"How do you get what you need?" Louis consciously might as well listen.

McLeod smiled and said: "I heard that Cedric Maxwell has been restless recently. He is unwilling to be a substitute. This will surely bring a lot of obstacles to your championship competition. Haven't you thought about trading him? "

The opponent's goal was aimed at Louis's current headache.

Maxwell has indeed become a problem. Louis has thought about trading, but he has no confidence in returning the equivalent commodity. If the transaction fails, it will disturb the military's morale, because once rumors of a transaction spread, Maxwell is likely to blow himself up.

"Impossible, Cedric will be a Celtic until his death." Louis said tough.

"If you can't win a title, you're not a true Celtic."

"You are a little forgetful, Coach McLeod, we won the championship two years ago." Louis reminded.

McLeod rhetorically asked: "With the Celtics' roster configuration, can winning a championship really satisfy everyone?"

The answer is obvious, champion coach Fitch has been dismissed to Houston to help another bad team.

"Coach McLeod, it's impossible for us to trade Cedric, but I'm very interested in your proposal. Let's assume Cedric is tradable. What kind of trade proposal would you give?"

McLeod didn't expect Louie to be so glib.

Say Maxwell is not tradable, then express interest in a trade, and then ask him to propose a trade assuming Maxwell is tradable.

"Well, Coach Lu, you must know our situation. It is expected that many talented players will enter the draft next year. We want to give up the present to gain the future."

"Well, it's good, I support you."

MacLeod across from him didn't know how to slander Louis.

"So we decided to send one of the best big men in the league, Alvan Adams CPF, in exchange for Cedric."

"Coach Lu?"

"Coach Lu, are you listening?"

"Here," Louie laughed, "I just spent a few seconds thinking—I wonder who Alwan Adams is, Coach McLeod, you say he's one of the best big men in the league, why don't I know him?"

McLeod said in surprise: "Are you kidding me, Coach Lu? Alwan was the No. 4 pick in 1975 and the best insider in the history of the Suns, with a triple-double of 47 points in one game. ."

"Since he's one of the best insiders in the league, he should have been selected to the All-NBA team at least once or twice, right?"

"Uh..."

"No? Well, what about the number of All-Star selections? Two or three, right?"

"Coach Lu...you're a bit of an honorary man. Although Alwan has not been selected to the All-NBA team, and has only been selected to the All-Star team once, he is definitely one of the best insiders in the league because at his peak, There's Dave Cowens, Elvin Hayes, Kareem, Wes Unseld in the league."

Louis was enjoying the time with each other.

"You're right, honor theory is really bad, but if you want to say this thing is bad, you must have it first, if you don't have this thing and threaten it to be bad, it's very likely that you won't get it Jealousy, what do you think, Coach McLeod?"

McLeod could not have imagined that he and Louie would be so **** about Adams.

Now he still has to prove to his dear disciple, "Alwan was his Rookie of the Year that year. Do you know who his classmates are?"

"Who?"

"David Thompson who hasn't been alone yet."

"I don't read much, don't lie to me, Coach McLeod."

"Coach Lu, how could I lie to you? Erwin is definitely underestimated."

"Okay," Louie scoffed. "Looks like I have to force myself to erase the memory of David Thompson playing in the ABA that year."

McLeod didn't want to talk to Louis about Adams anymore. It was originally a bait he threw, but he didn't expect Louis to really take the bait. After a communication, Louis enjoyed it, and McLeod himself was tossed a lot.

He was forced to use sophistry to explain that Adams's strength was not bad. It's true that he came to Mongolia, but he never imagined that Louis would be so difficult to deal with.

McLeod changed his tune: "Coach Lu, I am here with sincerity. If it is not for the future of the team, we do not want to trade Erwin."

"I understand, Coach McLeod, even though Irvin Adams is the number one insider in the league, I don't have a cold, we have Bill Laimbeer, we have Ralph Sampson, and Larry can come in as well, why? How about an old man who leads the team's highest salary as a substitute?"

Finally, the topic can move forward.

McLeod hurriedly said: "If you don't like Erwin, you can choose someone else to trade. We don't have anything for sale."

"Really? It won't be too difficult for you, will it?"

"No, everyone gets what they need."

"Okay, let's say we're going to trade Cedric," Louie continued, "he's only 28 years old, he can be the No. 1 or No. 2 offensive option for most teams in the league, he has championship experience, whether it's ambition. You need a player like him on a championship team or a rebuilding tank team. So I think the only thing we need in the Suns is Larry Nance."

Louie believes that this call should end here.

Nance should be the rebuilding core of the Suns. He is still very young, only 24 years old. He averaged 18 points and 8 rebounds per game.

If they can get him, the Celtics will not have any dead ends.

Although Maxwell is good, if he can trade to Nance, Louis will not frown.

"I know it's hard for you, please think about it, and if there is a result, call me at any time, goodbye."

Just as Louis was about to hang up, the other end of the phone shouted, "Coach Lu, wait a minute!"

No way?

"What else?" No way?

"Road coach..."

No way?

"Your proposal does overwhelm us~www.wuxiahere.com~ but we are determined to move forward."

No way?

"Presumably you guys are well aware of Larry's upside potential, and if you want him, you need to send additional draft picks in addition to Cedric Maxwell."

"What do you think if we give two more first-round picks?"

"I think we can close the deal."

Louie's hands were shaking. He thought it was a scam call, but he was just talking nonsense.
