The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 649: i hate that fat pig

In the 1989 expansion draft, the Minnesota Timberwolves had the first choice.

Small casinos all over the place made boring offers, believing that the Timberwolves' first choice, Ronnie Sekali, was inevitable.

As a result, they played a surprise first-round pick, not a Knicks player.

That is to say, he handed over the opportunity of priority selection to Magic.

why is that? No one can understand, although Marly and Sekali are about the same level, but whoever comes, the first choice will choose Sekali.

However, he just didn't choose, he just played.

The Magic chose Sekkari without hesitation.

Next, the Timberwolves' second choice, selected Dan Marley.

Seeing this scene, Louis turned off the TV.

"Don't be sad, it's just two role players." Lorraine knew that Louie wanted to keep one of them.

"Sad? I'm not sad at all."

Lorraine just listened to his words. If he wasn't sad, why did he hold the remote control tightly?

Look at the blue veins on his palm...

"Dear, let go of the remote control." Lorraine smiled, "Would you like me to find a sandbag to vent your anger?"

"Forget it, I'm really fine."

This matter, to say whether it has a great impact on the Knicks, is not entirely true.

Marley has All-Star potential in the future, and Secali is probably somewhere between a quasi-All-Star and a strong starter, but they're not destined to have long-term appearances on the Knicks.

And, with players like them, Louie can fill in the draft every summer.

The reason he was upset was that things got out of control.

He had negotiated with Pat Williams that as long as the Timberwolves drafted Seikali as he expected, he could trade the Magic for Marley.

But as a result, the Timberwolves played an unexpected game. The first choice was neither Sekali nor Marley, so the agreement between the Magic and the Knicks was voided, and Sekali was selected first, then the Timberwolves chose Marley.

Louie was sure someone was up to something, and, he was sure, it had something to do with Jerry Krause.

Because of the grievances between Klaus and him, it is completely reasonable to secretly manipulate him.

Of course, even if Louis was certain, it was just a suspicion.

He will verify through his own channels.

Once he finds out who is behind it, whether it's Klaus or everyone else, don't think it's over.

"Honey?"

Lorraine wants to know how to live in the two-person world today.

Louie said, give yourself a day off after watching the expansion draft.

She didn't expect Louis to be immersed in her own world. She called him several times, but there was no response.

She saw her husband with a gloomy smile and said, "Actually, I'm fine."

"It's their loss for Ghostbusters not to invite you into the crew." Lorraine jokingly hurt Louis.

"It's a pity that I don't like Sigourney Weaver, otherwise I would definitely consider it seriously." Louie complained, "Every time that moldy woman comes to MSG to watch, we don't play well!"

"Don't say that, Simmons is a good man."

"OK, let's not break the defense." Louis smiled, "I'll recover."

After that, Louis accompanied Lorraine for a day, and the next day, he left New York.

After each season, the league holds a board of directors, also known as the annual meeting.

As long as it is not the year of collective bargaining agreement, most of the participants are the No. 1 or No. 2 person in the management of each team.

As always, if Auerbach was in Washington, Louis would visit him.

This year, Auerbach happens to be on vacation at home in Washington, where he will be attending the annual meeting with Jane Walker.

The 1988 Eastern Conference finals fractured the relationship between Louis and many in the Celtics, but Auerbach didn't break with Louis.

Regarding Louis's controversial moves in the Eastern Conference finals, he downplayed his evaluation: "He knew he had to do it."

Louis was entertained by Dorothy, Auerbach's hairy wife, who had been married for decades and remained in a stable relationship.

"Reed talks about you a lot. He says if there were more young people like you, he'd retire early," Dorothy laughed. "You made him feel like a former star."

"Okay, okay!" Auerbach suddenly looked anxious, "We still have work to discuss."

Dorothy whispered, "He's shy."

Louis also replied in a low voice, "I can see it."

Auerbach came to Louie, and time flew by, the young man who had been out of Boston for five years.

When he left, Auerbach had a hunch that he was going to have something big in New York.

But he didn't expect that in just five years, he changed the league and ended the Celtics' domination.

"What are you planning to do this year?" Auerbach snorted coldly, "I heard that you were very dishonest at the annual meeting."

Louis said modestly: "With a senior with high morals and respect like you present, how dare I say more, I only brought my ears this year."

"I think your little mouth can speak quite well. Don't forget to speak later! Without your speech, the annual meeting would not be complete." Auerbach mocked secretly.

After Jane Walker came, the two exchanged a few words and set off together.

In the car, Volcker talked about the expansion draft.

"Lu, do you know why Minnesota is giving up its first choice?" Volker asked.

Louis suddenly became interested: "Mr. Jane, please tell me about the affection of our colleagues for seven years."

"Look, you're a bitch, what's the big deal?" Auerbach really found out that after Louis left Boston, it was not pleasing to the eye.

Why didn't such a shameless man stay in Boston to take his class?

"Supposedly..." Volcker wasn't sure, "Chicago and Minnesota made a deal."

Louis asked suspiciously: "It is said?"

"Yes, whether it is true or not, we can see after a while." Volcker laughed. "If Minnesota and Chicago have a follow-up trade, and Minnesota seems to be the winner, you can continue to dig deeper."

Everyone has their own news network. Volcker had been Auerbach's deputy for ten years before, and his eyes were all over the league. It was difficult to hide any news from him.

But like he said, Louie still needs confirmation.

Timberwolves general manager Billy McKinney and Jerry Krause have a personal relationship, and that makes sense if Krause used their relationship to sow discord and benefit .

If Klaus really went this far to disgust him, then Louis would admit it.

You see he's crazy like this, isn't it bad to obey him once?

However, Louis reserves the right to retaliate.

Isn't that a disgusting person?

Auerbach saw the corner of Louis' mouth curved upwards, and brought out an extremely disgusting sneer: "What kind of evil do you have?"

"Reed, you're just thinking too much, how can I have bad intentions? You can ask the general managers of each team later, who doesn't know that I'm a loyal person?"

"I can go to you!"

It has been said that those extraordinary stars can control an entire room.

Wherever the stars go, there will be cheers and onlookers, and the appearance of leaders will make the place orderly and serious like a state of war.

When Louis and Auerbach appeared together, the people in the lobby of the boardroom stopped talking.

Most people got up and said hello to Olba.

And then there's Louie, whose prestige among the crowd is astonishing.

Jerry West, Don Nelson, Frank Ryden, Lewis Shafir, Pat Williams...even some general managers who have never dealt with him want to say a few words to him talk.

The performance of these people put Klaus and Harry Weltman in an awkward position.

In the past, when attending the annual meeting, Louie would sit directly next to Walker.

But this time, he actually walked up to the "enemy".

"Jerry, I already know what you did with Billy McKinney." Louie smiled lightly, "and I want you to know that the last thing I like is being treated as a fool. I think that The person is you, because I understand why you do this, you have that motive, and I also hope that the person is you, whether it is you or not, as long as I confirm my identity, please believe that I will 'return the gift'."

Klaus looked ugly, "LittleLu, I don't know what you're talking about."

"Is that so? I'm really sorry, I misunderstood you, but I really can't blame it." Louie sneered, "For a rookie to be so deliberate, it's in line with your style of eating clean crumbs."

Frank Ryden laughed out loud, and the whole room burst into laughter.

Klaus was so angry that he wanted to punch Louis, but at this moment, what else could he do except laugh angrily?

"Will this make you feel better?" Walker asked with a wry smile.

"Seriously, no one has made me feel so good except my wife." Louie laughed, "I have to 'thank' that fat pig."

"What if it turns out that it's not about him?" Walker asked.

"Isn't that better? I gave him a punch~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but he couldn't fight back. I like to watch my enemy want to kill me but can't kill me, want to start but have nowhere to start. Your face is crooked. You don't think I have a good relationship with that fat pig, Mr. Jane?"

Walker said: "Reed is right, you are like a stingy version of him."

"Come on, the old man will give himself money."

Auerbach remains the most special of those present.

Only he, Stern will deliberately call him elsewhere to briefly introduce today's agenda, with Auerbach's consent, those agendas will be launched smoothly.

Otherwise, the old man clapped the table later to express his objection, but the scene was a Bostonian.

As long as those people encounter things that do not affect their team's interests, they will use Auerbach's attitude as a weather vane.

It can be said that if Stern wants to do anything, he must pass the Auerbach level, otherwise, even if he passes, there will be great resistance.

The secret meeting between the two ended with Stern's warm embrace of Auerbach, which seemed to go well.
