You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 276
That night, Wei Xia and Phil Jackson asked for leave.He didn't go back to the hotel, but went back to his grandfather's house to sleep.

In the past, Jackson would say no.

But today, Jackson seemed to be in a good mood, or he wanted to maintain his usual sense of mystery so that people could not see his thoughts clearly, so he agreed.

Wei Xia really didn't understand why he had repeated inconsistencies.

But now that Jackson has been extrajudicial, he'd better keep his mouth shut and go home.

Wayne heard that he was going to spend the night at home, and happily bought a bunch of Chinese food that he liked and was the only Chinese food available at that time.

Grandma Gianna helped Wei Xia arrange a vacant room.

Wei Xia originally wanted to go to bed early, but Wayne pulled him to talk about the game.During the period, the one he said the most was: "From today on, if the Celtics don't take Ricky Davis away, I won't watch their games for a day!"

If Wei Xia hadn't played against the Celtics or played against Davis, he would have laughed it off.

After playing against the Celtics, he listened to his grandpa, and he completely agreed with his grandpa.

"He really isn't worth your risking your life to watch the game live." Wei Xia was worried that if his grandfather went to watch the game again, he would either die from the noise or be pissed off by Davis.

"Who says no? If it's Larry Bird's game, I'd like to watch it even if I die!" As he said, the old man began to recall the past.

From 1956 to 1986, within 30 years, the Celtics' championship interval would not exceed five years at most.Some teams can only play in the playoffs twice in 30 years, while some teams have numb hands and feet after winning the championship within 30 years.

The glory of the three generations was exchanged for the darkness of today.

While eating, Wei Xia listened to his grandfather telling stories about the past. He kept talking about the 70s and 80s, as if he was worried that Wei Xia would not understand the stories of the 60s.In fact, that was the passage Wei Xia was most interested in.

Maybe his grandpa was there when he played for Havlicek.

After about an hour, Wei Xia went back to his room to sleep.

He found out that his grandma had placed him in the room where his father used to live, and there was a large poster of Larry Bird in it.

There are also posters of the Pistons, but with the heads of Isiah Thomas and Dennis Rodman painted over.

He fell asleep looking at the posters with the year on them.

Originally, I wanted to compare the similarities and differences between Heinsohn as a player and Heinsohn as a commentator in the old days, but I didn't expect to come to a not-so-good night.

The Celtics lost 76-106 to the Syracuse Nationals, formerly the Philadelphia 126ers.

The reason is still very simple, Russell made 5 fouls abnormally in the half.

They graduated shortly after the start of the third quarter, and 8 players from the national team scored in double figures.That's right, 8 players scored in double figures.Only 18 points were scored.They beat the Celtics in the best way the Celtics can.

Auerbach walked into the locker room, looked left and right, looking for someone to be a target.

But his special sandbag, Heinsohn, was absent from this campaign, and the other thick-skinned bastards performed well. Even KC Jones, whose career average shooting percentage was less than 40%, showed a touching 50% shooting percentage.The reason for the loss is nothing else, that is, Sam Jones, Bob Cousy, Russell and others performed too badly.

They are all people who cannot spray.

"That's it, you know how you play, I have nothing to say." Auerbach didn't scold anyone.

Suddenly, beside Wesha, Frank Ramsey picked up his pair of sneakers and slammed them against the opposite wall.

He roared in a voice Wei Xia had never heard before: "You guys are joking with my money again!"

He growled loudly: "I came up here from Kentucky to win and make some money! If this shit happens again, I promise you can't eat it all!"

In this way, no one said a word, whether it was the leader Cousy, the soul figure Russell, or Sam Jones who thought he was the best in the world, no one refuted, and their silence showed their attitude.

Such a situation has never happened in the locker room, but this is the most tense situation Wei Xia has ever seen.

Ramsey didn't blow up the locker room, he just did what Auerbach didn't.

Let teammates remember the lesson and don't make an example.

Ramsey walked out of the locker room angrily, and the teammates who dared not act arrogantly looked at each other.

Heinsohn, who was absent from the fight due to physical discomfort, joked: "Didn't he go home to find his wife to practice punching?"

The teammates who understood what Heinsohn was doing laughed.

This is the magic of Heinsohn, who has the gift of making any tension disappear.

The stalk of Ramsey's domestic violence wife came from the 1960-61 season, which was after the game against the sworn enemy Knicks.The Celtics were narrowly defeated, and Ramsey missed a key goal. He had no excuses. When asked about his mood by the Boston Globe, he openly stated that he would go home and beat his wife to vent his anger.

Boxers hold on!People are irrational when they are angry.And Ramsey's wife was not easy to mess with.

But how did Wei Xia understand this?

He asked stupidly, "Should I comfort him?"

"Rookie, do you want to try for yourself what it's like to be doubled by their husband and wife? Go, I support you in spirit!" Jim Loscutoff SF (Jim Loscutoff SF), who lives on the same street as Ramsey and goes in and out every day, laughed.

Wesha gave up the idea of ​​comforting Ramsey. For him, this is another good day to understand the character of the champion.

The Celtics' winning culture in the team in the 60s has its background, but if the right group of people is not gathered together, even if the time and place are right, they will not be able to achieve supremacy.

Wei Xia was trying to learn more about Ramsey, but found that his teammates had all left.

He had to go home.

It was already late at night. According to Wei Xia's experience, his consciousness could leave his body at any time and go to the pure black world.

Sure enough, on the way home, he felt the call, and his consciousness suddenly left Havlicek's body, flew into the night sky, penetrated the old time, and came to another world.

So he played two more games here, winning one and losing one.

At [-]:[-] the next morning, Wei Xia woke up and found that grandma had prepared breakfast.He learned from his grandfather that his grandma got up before six o'clock because she was afraid of delaying his time to catch the plane.Moreover, she knew that some athletes were taboo, but she didn't understand, so she called Wayne too.Wayne was forced to share what he knew about athlete diets: "Just don't feed Philly red meat!"

Ever since, Jaina prepared chicken breast, whole wheat bread, and ice water.

Just swap out the ice water for whole milk for a perfect breakfast.

But considering that this is an old lady who has no interest in sports, she has done her best to make it this far.

"Your grandma has never been so courteous to me!"

Seeing Wei Xia waking up and eating ready-made ones, Wayne's words were full of jealousy.

"How about I share half with you?" Wei Xia asked.

"Forget it, I can still compete with you young people for food?" The old man's mind is the most difficult to understand. They do this for a while, and they always have their own reasons, but the young people can only bear it.

Wei Xia was having breakfast and asked about Frank Ramsey.

"Why did you suddenly ask him?" Wayne asked in surprise.

His reaction was the same as the reporter who heard Weixia say that he was a Heinsohn fan yesterday.

"Just to get to know him, do you still remember him?" Wei Xia asked.

"Of course!" Speaking of the story of the old Celtics, Wayne was excited.

Wei Xia thought he would talk about Ramsey's famous scenes, but he didn't expect the old man to show his profound knowledge and start talking about Ramsey before the draft.

I thought he was talking about Ramsey, but I didn't expect it to be another speech that deepened Weisha's admiration for the cardinal.

Let’s talk about 1952—Wow, 54 years from Weixia’s era—at that time, every winter, the league would hold a collective meeting, attended by the league’s executives and the head coaches of each team, to discuss what else needed to be changed in the league.The great 24-second attack rule is derived from this situation.At that time, the NBA stipulated that the team could not select players who had not completed their college studies. Auerbach, who had a sense of belonging, put forward an ingenious suggestion: "Why can't we learn from the NFL and modify the regulations to allow players who have graduated from high school for four years? The NFL is the most successful sports league in the United States. Learning from successful players is never wrong!"

Since no one at the scene discovered the potential harm of this rule, the amendment proposal was quickly passed by a large number of votes.

And, as Auerbach later described, whenever he had an idea, he would patiently wait until the end of the meeting before bringing it up.Because each session lasts for several hours, by the end, everyone is too tired to discuss, and all they want is to leave the meeting as soon as possible and go to dinner.

At that time, make a relaxed appearance and put forward a proposal that sounds harmless to humans and animals. Usually there will not be too much resistance and discussion, and everyone will pass the proposal and continue the meeting.Unfortunately for other teams at the time, Auerbach's suggestion was passed and changed the course of history several times.

⑴ In the 1978 draft, Green Kai used this rule to rob Bird.

"As expected of a red head, it's really insidious!" Wei Xia clapped his hands when he heard it.

"Is your grandpa talking about fantasy stories again?" Jaina will never understand Wayne, let alone how valuable the stories in Wayne's mind are to a person who wants to understand that era.

"For God's sake!" Wayne yelled at his wife. "Isn't my breakfast here yet? Are you going to starve me?"

"I'm sure you won't meet God until you finish telling the story." Jaina gave her wife a blank look.
