The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 651: TheNextOne

"I owe you a favor for this matter." Louis raised his glass and said, "If you need my help in the future, please call me at any time."

The most excited about this was Lewis Shafir: "Help each other! Help each other!"

This scene was watched by Jerry West.

Last year, there were rumors that Shafir referred to Louie's advice when he drafted.

After the dinner, the two parties took a group photo in the lobby downstairs.

Louis stood beside Jane Walker, smiling brightly.

Returning to New York from Washington, the first thing Louie did was go to Baylor to question him.

"My old swan! How can you blame me because I don't have any news from Chicago?" Baylor already had an old face, but when he was aggrieved at this time, his face was twisted like a golden retriever being trained, "It's not that you don't Knowing our relationship with Chicago, I want to develop a friendship with them, Jerry Krause that **** Jean?"

Louis found that the old man was unrepentant and made a lot of excuses.

"Shouldn't this kind of thing have been prepared earlier? Do you understand if you plan for a rainy day? Tell me this now that something has happened?"

"I'm dead, I'm dead! Who knew you could offend people all of a sudden? After 1986, no one in Chicago ever answered my call, and my contact with them was completely cut off, so what? "

"Are you still making excuses?"

"It's not an excuse..."

Louis was pretending to be angry, but now he is really angry: "You have been in this industry for so many years, and there are hundreds of friends in the circle, right? You can't connect to the Chicago line, and neither can others. Come on? Can't you **** go and ask them to understand?"

"Ah this?"

What the hell! Louis saw the expression of "So I can still do this?" on Baylor's face.

"What else do you have to say?"

"No, nothing to say."

Baylor felt guilty: "Wrong, I was wrong."

"You're the general manager of the team, if I could think of everything, I wouldn't need you, wouldn't I?" After Louis got angry, he began to reason calmly, "Elgin, your network is you. The biggest advantage, I need you to use this advantage, the next time I encounter this kind of thing, I don't want to be like a deaf and dumb person."

Baylor nodded again and again: "I definitely won't make this mistake again."

Now that it's happened, and Baylor is aware of his problem, Louie is no longer holding on to it.

He had a great time working with Baylor.

Although Louis always regarded himself as a loyal person, he felt in his conscience that Baylor was the real loyal person.

He knows the Knicks' rank, he knows who he's working for, and he's willing to play a supporting role. This kind of selfless team spirit was not reflected in his playing days. If he was willing to play a supporting role, he would not have retired halfway in 1972, and then made a joke that "the team won the championship after retirement".

"This year's draft is released in advance. You help me to inquire everywhere, collect rumors related to Chicago, whether it is true or false, and arrange them all for me." Louis looked fierce when he said this.

Baylor asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Although this matter doesn't affect us much, I have to let the fat pig in Chicago know that even a loyal person like me is not toying with him if he wants to."

Louie tapped Baylor on the shoulder and picked up the can of coins on his desk to put the coins in the vending machine.

"Don't screw this up, Elgin." Louie greeted him with a Coke.

"Hey, I'm sure you'll be satisfied."

After Louis left, Baylor whispered: "If the world is full of loyal people like him, how can I live."

Louis returned to the office, and within a minute, Zhao Yuanzheng came.

"You're so fast on the expedition, have you been watching the surveillance secretly, why do I come after my front foot is on your back?" Louis groaned.

"How can it be."

Zhao Yuanzheng handed his integrated scouting report to Louis.

Louis opened Zhao Yuanzheng's "Draft Prospective Plan", which is his annual reservation.

Now Zhao Yuanzheng is not only Louis' assistant, but also the supervisory director of the scouting department. All of the Knicks' scouts' reports are to be handed to him, screened by himself, and finally presented to Louie.

The first sentence of Zhao Yuanzheng's opening sentence defines the 1989 draft: "This is a draft class that is below average."

The Knicks' top pick this year is the first-round pick from the San Antonio Spurs (14th overall), followed by the Pistons' 25th pick and the Knicks' own 27th pick.

The three first rounds, if done well, can completely make up for the loss of Marly and Sekali.

Although the Knicks are not at the top of the draft, Zhao Yuanzheng made a summary of this year's popular rookies.

He divided the likely top 10 picks into three tiers.

T1: Hank Gathers (HankGathersPF/SF), Danny Ferry★⑴, Glenn Rice★, Sean Camp★★★★★.

⑴★ is a habit of Zhao Yuanzheng. The more ★ numbers, the greater the hidden danger.

Camp? Louis' body trembled.

"Who is Sean Camp?" Of course Louis knew who Camp was, he just wanted to hear what Zhao Yuanzheng thought of him.

Zhao Yuanzheng said, "Coach, do you remember that I went to Irish Hart, Indiana, to inspect a child in March?"

"I remember you went for a week?"

"Yes, I went for him." Zhao Yuanzheng recalled that time, and seemed very intoxicated, "I have never really seen such an amazing high school player."

Louie's memories of Camp are also unlocking.

In the 1996 Finals, reached the peak of that Sonics with Payton, then was traded to the Cavaliers, Fat, GG.

Then he has countless illegitimate children.

"He has the most perfect power forward body I've ever seen, and the most explosive physicality I've ever seen."

"You've met MJ."

"In terms of visual impact, MJ is not as good as him, and Dominic Wilkins can't be compared with Sean Kemp." Zhao Yuanzheng described romantically, "Every time he dunks, it's like a lightning strike in the basket. At the rim, I saw the ultimate power forward in him."

Louie turned the draft preview around and said, "Expedition, you gave him five ★."

"Because the possibility of him playing is as great as the possibility of not playing." Zhao Yuanzheng said, "He was going to go to Kentucky to go to school last year, but there was a donation scandal in Kentucky, he was suspended for two years, and Kemp had no ball. Playable. He's only been able to play amateur games in town in Indiana for the past year, but despite that, he still has a lot of potential, and I think he's the second-highest potential player in this draft, just with a lot of technical issues Needs to improve, plus, he's not a mature guy, he...he has a lot of off-field issues."

"But..." Zhao Yuanzheng looked at Louis ambitiously, "If it's Coach Lu, it's fine."

"I'm embarrassed to say that."

"I'm serious, Coach Lu." Louis seems to have the belief of Zhao Yuanzheng, the latter has religious superstition towards the former, "You are a soul catcher, and Sean has an immature heart, you can completely control him ."

The difference between Louis and Zhao Yuanzheng is that he can see not only Camp's present, but also Camp's future.

Are you really going to pick a time bomb that could detonate at any time?

"Expedition, let's talk about this in a few days."

There's one more name on this list that has Louie's attention.

Hank Gaithers, Louie has heard this name, this year's NCAA All-American first team, averaging 32 points and 13.7 rebounds per game, is the second player in college basketball history to lead the league in both scoring and rebounding.

In December last year, he scored 49 points and 22 rebounds against the University of Nevada, which shocked the country.

Louie had heard the name, but didn't care.

Because of his unfamiliarity, if Gaithers really was a star, he should have made his name in the '90s and retired in the early 2000s.

That way Louis would have at least heard his name, but he hadn't.

However, Zhao Yuanzheng believes that Camp's talent is the second in this draft, and the first is Gaithers.

Zhao Yuanzheng's ability to scout rookies, Louis can trust, otherwise he would not have handed over the scouting department to him.

He shouldn't have made such a serious mistake.

"He's a powerful player, and it's hard for me to find the right development template for him. He's like Barkley, but he doesn't have Barkley's big ass. He's also like Moses Malone, his rebounding is amazing. He The speed of the bullet is like the combination of Dennis Rodman and Dominic Wilkins, the speed of the bullet and the ability to take off continuously."

"Unprecedented." Zhao Yuanzheng exaggeratedly said, "If he can successfully transform into a small forward in the NBA, I don't think anyone can stop him, he will be a 'genius of the generation' in this generation. Even if he continues to play big in the NBA The forwards are also expected to be players above the All-Star level."

Louie said suspiciously, "Look at you, as if he were a sure-fire choice?"

"Yes, indeed." Zhao Yuanzheng nodded affirmatively.

Louis wanted to believe Zhao Yuanzheng, but there was an obvious problem in front of him.

If Hank Gaithers is really that good, should he know?

The stars who debuted during this period must have reached their peak in the 1990s~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then retired at the beginning of the new century. Maybe they can still play with Yao Huan. That was the era that Louis was familiar with, the stars of that period, Even though he hadn't seen them play, he'd heard their names.

But the only thing he can't think of is a '90s James named Hank Gaithers.

Yes, this man's style sounds too much like James.

Louie is confident in his prophetic superiority, but not 100%.

Because in his previous life, he also did not know Benjamin Wilson.

But now Wilson is not the same as the New York media with two championships to be blown into the NBA version of "The Next One" ⑵.

So, is this Hank Gaithers "The NextOne" caused by the butterfly effect caused by his crossing?

⑵ equivalent to the "Jordan successor" in the NHL. This flower head comes from the nickname "The Great One" of Wayne Gretzky, the best in NHL history (don't know how to translate it, great man?), so his successors are called "The Next One".
