the rest, only noise

Chapter 1121 Elgin is no match for you
The first thousand and 130 chapters and three Elgin can't compare with you

"Larry, how are you?"

Bird had never been so offended by a voice.

About 11 years ago, he had endured the sound for a whole year.

I'm glad he only coached the Celtics for one year before leaving, but Bird couldn't deny that the departure of the Celtics was the direct cause of the Celtics' demise in the late 80s.

"If you don't make this call, I couldn't be better off."

"Really? Do you really feel good? It turns out that you like to be ignored so much. I misread you. Larry Bird is the kind of person who likes to spend the rest of his life lying on the credits of his past."

Bird said angrily, "What's the matter with you?"

"I wanted to invite you to join my coaching staff, but now I'm a little hesitant. You treat yourself like a salted fish. What do I want you to do?"

Byrd was furious.

"First, I resigned and went home because I wanted to make a difference, but I was destined to fail in Boston! Second, I have never been a salty fish. You have been doing nothing for the past two fucking years, and you are a salty fish! Third, I don't even want to join your coaching staff, let alone betray Boston and go to work in Los Angeles!"

Louis' tone became mocking, and his words were no longer polite.

"Hillbilly, I don't think so many years have passed, you still look like a countryman with little knowledge. If you want to make a difference after retiring, you shouldn't choose to start in Boston. Where is Boston? Where is Reid's old lair? He was 'born' there and will 'die' there. The Celtics will be there for his funeral. There is no place for you. You followed the wrong people from the beginning, and it is not too late to find out, but you still want to be loyal to them? Do you know that we are a business? Alliance? You have nothing to do with Boston, no matter where you go to work, it’s not a betrayal, just like if you give up Heineken from today and choose Budweiser, that’s not a betrayal either!”

Bird suddenly laughed.

"You look like you really want me in."

"I'm just kidding. There is no shortage of talent in my coaching staff. You may be the best player ever, but a good player is not necessarily a good coach. In fact, the person who needs the opportunity is you. If it weren't for the fact that we have worked together once, I would not give you this call. What I give you is not an ordinary teaching assistant job. What I give you is the opportunity to work with the greatest coach ever."

When Louie left Boston, he was just a young man picked up by Auerbach.

But today, he already has the confidence to call himself the best in front of Bird.

"Would you dare tell Redd that you are the greatest basketball coach?"

"Do you think this matter needs the consent of the old man?" Louis asked with a smile, "I'll ask you one last time, come or not? I can understand that you didn't want to go to New York at the beginning, but if you refused to come to Los Angeles because of the competition between the Lakers and the Celtics, I really can't understand. Because you have always been the winner in this competition, it is the Lakers who should be suspicious of this, not you."

Byrd was clearly persuaded.

Louis didn't even mention Bill Sharman's example of the classic Green Capitol Lake, but he heard Bird ask, "Do you think I'm suitable for Los Angeles?"

Do you think Louis will encourage him and take advantage of the trend to attack the psychological defense of the best player in history?
"It's hard to say. How can a place like Boston compare with Los Angeles? The world of flamboyance here is unimaginable. When you come here, you may become a famous gun king like Patrick. It is also possible to leave dozens of illegitimate children by then, so why don't you come?"

"QNMD!"

"By the way, your half-brother is that Erwin who was defeated by you countless times in the finals. He is considering a comeback. If you consider becoming the king of guns, you can communicate with him more. Just don't play too much, or you will be ruined if you contract HIV."

"Fuck me!"

After Louis teased Byrd, he called the tragedian.

Hearing Louis say that Bird might come to the Lakers as an assistant coach, the tragedy teacher was very excited and shouted directly on the phone: "This will definitely work, and Larry and I are together again!"

"He is still a little hesitant, why don't you call me to persuade him?"

"Okay!"

"However, persuasion also pays attention to methods. Don't mention me, and don't ask him if he will come to Los Angeles. Just talk about your comeback and see what he thinks."

"I listen to you, Coach."

On July 1995, 7, Fox Magazine announced that Bill Gates became the new richest man in the world.

Gates' personal assets reached $129 billion.

And the market value of Microsoft, which he founded, reached 500 billion US dollars at the beginning of this year, and now it is worth 750 billion US dollars, and in the near future (by the end of the year), its market value will reach 1000 billion US dollars.

There are many economists who say that the Internet's economic prosperity may be shattered at any time, but Microsoft is still unabated.

This is also the most successful investment that Louis has made after his time travel. Since 1984, Microsoft has split its original shares several times, and Louis has made additional investments. Now his holdings account for about 2.5%.

Louis remembered that Microsoft's market value reached its peak at the beginning of the new century, and he could have a fortune of Fukuzawa five generations as long as he cashed out all the stocks at that time.

However, he is not thinking about making money all day like when he first joined the industry.

All kinds of investments are booming and profitable, and now he only needs to concentrate on his career.

He has to drive the Lakers boat.

A day later, Louis met Liu Yuqing at the forum.

He looked downcast.

The start of his career was not smooth, and he also lost the national team this summer.

So far, her high school career seems to be the pinnacle of Liu Yuqing's life.

At that time, he was the No. [-] shooting guard in the United States, shoulder to shoulder with Grant Hill. During the draft, the NBA still believed in his talent and selected him with a lottery pick.

However, the Eagles team is full of extroverted cool guys. They couldn't get along with Liu Yuqing and thought he was weird, and he didn't fit with the coach's philosophy, so he was dropped.

After only one season, he was sent to Vancouver.

Before he had time to play a game for the Grizzlies, he was traded again.

"Take what happened in the past year as a nightmare." Louis patted Liu Yuqing's shoulder, "Everything is brand new from today on."

Liu Yuqing was silent for a while, Louis thought he had nothing to say, and just wanted to go upstairs.

"I will become their nightmare." Liu Yuqing added, "I will make them regret it."

The fact that he can say this shows that he still has the spirit and has not completely lost confidence.

"Before you become a nightmare in Atlanta, try to be a good substitute."

Louie went upstairs.

Not just Atlanta, but Vancouver as well.

Liu Yuqing thought to herself.

Louis wanted to say hello to West, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard him clapping the table inside.

"Why does he have to hire Boston bastards! Those Celtic bastards don't fit us!"

"I heard that Coach Road is going to have Larry Bird on the coaching staff."

"Crazy! Really crazy! Great players don't have to be great coaches!" West snarled, "Why does it have to be those bastards in Boston?"

Louie decided to knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Louis walked into West's office, and the atmosphere inside was cold.

Here you have Mitch Kupchak and Kurt Rambis.

"Mitch, help me prepare a teaching assistant contract, the amount is about 5 million for 500 years."

"to whom?"

"Larry Bird." Louis glanced at Rambis, "Kurt, I hope you don't stay in Jerry's office all day, you should still have a lot of things to do."

Kupchak and Rambis left wisely.

As soon as Rambis went out, Louis shouted, "Close the door!"

Startled, Rambis closed the door tremblingly.

Then, only Louis and West were left here.

"Jerry, you seem to have a problem with my assistant coach."

Louis, who was angry a second ago, actually asked a question with a smile on his face.

"We played Boston so many times in the Finals, it made a lot of people feel awkward."

West's reasoning is decidedly pale.

"Really? Ervin, who was called a tragedy by Larry, is very excited about this." Louis didn't mean to answer West, "Also, no matter how much you hate the Celtics, you should remember that the professional basketball in Los Angeles still has three decent flags hanging on the forum, all thanks to Bill Sharman⑴. You won three championships under the leadership of a Hall of Fame coach whose jersey was retired by Boston, but now you feel awkward joining Larry and Don? Do you also I think the three flags on the roof are awkward, why don't you find someone to burn them?"

West was out of control by Louis' sarcasm.

"That was not what I meant!"

But West can't find any other reason to oppose Louie's hiring of the Celtics star.

"Since you don't mean it, stay positive and smile. I hope to never hear you complaining about this from your office again. Everyone knows that this decision was made by me. You as a vice president should support me. If you continue like this, I will feel embarrassed."

"Would you feel better if I was like you and kept complaining to people about the decisions you made?"

Louis presses every step of the way, and finally makes the LOGO man's psychological defense collapse.

"Good! Good! Good!" West said angrily, "I agree with you, I support you like the roundworm in your mother's stomach, whoever talks about this again is against me!"

Louis said with a satisfied smile: "You really are my good wife, Elgin can't compare with you at all."

(1972) Sharman led the Lakers to a 33-game winning streak as a coach in 1983.After laying down the coach, he remained as the general manager until he retired due to illness in 1983.According to the world view in the book, the only three championships in the history of the Lakers are directly related to Sharman, and West has not received anything since he took over in [-].

PS: To answer a few questions someone might ask.

Shouldn't Bird join the Pacers?

Answer: The timeline in the book is 1995. The Pacers have a stable record and no shortage of coaches. Louie has a perfect time difference.

How can Bird, as a Celtic legend, join the Lakers?

A: Bill Sharman did it too.The biggest similarity between him and Bird is that he joined the Lakers with an absolute winner.

Would Bird betray the Celtics if he joined the Lakers?
A: Maybe I didn't write enough details, but in fact Bird has actually broken with the Celtics.

Shouldn't Byrd want to stay in his hometown more?
Answer: After Bird retired, he published two autobiographies. One is the autobiography of the player's career written by the "Illustrated" writer Jack McCollum, and the other is the autobiography written by himself, which talks about the coaching career after retirement.This book let me know that Byrd doesn't have such a heavy rural complex. Like James, what he really loves is the community he lives in, and the scope of the largest will not exceed the town of Frankie Rick.Just as James didn't think of Akron as part of Cleveland, Bird didn't see any connection between his town and Indiana.Even after he retired, he didn't go back to live in a small town, but went straight to Florida.
