Chapter 1126 Louis vs. Larry Bird
The first thousand and 130 chapters and eight chapters Louis vs. Larry Bird (subtitle: On how the assistant coach breaks the head coach's defense)
Wilson already knows Los Angeles traffic pretty well.

He will not choose to leave during the peak period of vehicle travel.

Anyway, today is just a gathering day, and it's not time for training, so it doesn't matter if you are a few hours late.

And someone like someone who doesn't understand LA traffic is going to be tortured.

For example, Christian Laettner, who just got out of the Houston Devil's Nest.

"Fuck LA!"

It was the tenth time Laettner cursed the road conditions in Los Angeles.

Leitner, who was supposed to gather at 05:30 p.m., didn't arrive until [-]:[-] p.m., and he was ready for dinner.

Miraculously, Wilson, who deliberately delayed his departure for several hours, bumped into him in the parking lot.

Laettner usually doesn't pay attention to his teammates' cars.

unless too conspicuous
When Benj drove past Lightner in the shiny red Ferrari F50, he couldn't help but cursed inwardly.

What kind of car is this?

Wilson chose a parking space numbered 250.

"Chris, what a coincidence." Wilson said unexpectedly, "Are you late too?"

Laettner was still thinking about Wilson's car, "The road is a bit congested."

"Los Angeles is like this. If you have dinner with friends, it's best to leave an hour in advance. Moreover, unless you plan your route and know the peak flow of people in each street, otherwise, you will never be able to reach your destination at the time you planned." Wilson scolded, "This bastard city, if I'm not afraid that the fans are too enthusiastic, I want to take the subway."

Leitner glanced at Wilson's "mount", "Your car"

"You mean that one?"

Lightner nodded.

"Sent by the sponsor, it is said to be a limited edition, but I don't like red."

Leitner was terrified, "If I'm not mistaken, your car should be the F50 just released by Ferrari this year?"

"It was given to me by Ferrari, but I don't know what model it is."

Leitner believes that Benj has no intention of showing off, but he just doesn't know why.

This is only a few hundred F50s, a luxury car with an average price of 250 million US dollars!
Leitner didn't even dare to think, this is actually a gift from the sponsor?

Laettner hated Houston even more.

He believed that if Houston hadn't delayed his development, he would have become a star like O'Neal and Mourning who had the right to speak. Based on his appearance and strength, wouldn't the sponsors give him an F50?

Although Wilson does not have mind reading skills, since he separated from Ewing, he has become more sensitive to other people's thoughts.

Perhaps, this is the so-called leadership consciousness.

He wants to know what his teammates are thinking, and that's where Ewing is at his worst.

Ewing just wanted to be a leader, and he didn't care what his teammates thought-of course, this problem had improved a lot in the year before Benj left.

"If you're interested, I can lend you the car. It just so happens that I hate the color scheme of this car." Wilson shook his head and said, "It's as red as blood, which is unlucky."

After all, Wilson patted the car keys into Leitner's hand.

Leitner felt deeply that he and creatures like Benjamin did not live in the same world.

I borrowed a luxury car worth several million.

Leitner then returned the key to Wilson.

"I really like your car, but I don't like to use other people's things. One day, I will drive my own F50."

Laettner is arrogant, after all, the environment in Los Angeles is completely different from that in Houston.

Wilson said boldly: "If you can help us win the championship, I will give you that car."

Laettner believed Wilson was serious, and he resented Houston even more.

Due to the fact that most of the players were late, the scheduled assembly plan of the basketball hall was cancelled.

Louie had the players gather at a three-star restaurant outside the resort.

This is also the first official meeting between Louie and the players after returning to the coach.Everyone will be there except the Tragedian and David Robinson.

Robinson was reimbursed for the season, and Louis did not ask him to join the team, so he chose to stay in Los Angeles to recuperate.The tragedian is temporarily busy and will not be able to report until tomorrow.

Wilson just dropped off his bags and came, having just had a very fulfilling summer.

This summer, he made a movie, played the leading role for the first time in his life, and even became a father.

However, the child's mother is a woman 11 years his senior.

Louie didn't ask much about Benj's personal affairs, but having a baby with a woman so much older than himself was a little too much.

But so what if it goes too far, Wilson likes it, and others don't care.

Then came Laettner, whom Louie had made a deep impression on when he coached the Dream Team.

If nothing else, he will be the starting four for the Lakers in the new season.

Dale Ellis and Sydal Tretter appeared together, and the two actually had a private friendship, which Louis did not expect.

Michael Finley quietly emerged.

At first, Louis thought that some rookies would come by the team bus. After all, rookies always need someone to guide them. Unexpectedly, Finley was quite independent.

Finley's silence reminded Louis of Liu Yuqing.

But even autistic people are different.Like Liu Yuqing, the typical mental activity is rich. Although she doesn't say anything, she definitely has a lot of words in her heart.

Finley belongs to the kind of honest person who has no words, no thoughts in his heart, and is both silent and quiet.

Then Garnett, Ostertag and Liu Yuqing appeared together.

"Sir, look who I brought here!" Garnett already looked like a leader, "This is Greg, this is woo~"

Garnett's eyes widened because Liu Yuqing suddenly covered his mouth with his hand.

He explained to Louie: "I came with them on the bus."

Garnett took Liu Yuqing's hand away and said dissatisfiedly, "Jiang Duo, you are so rude, the coach doesn't know your name yet."

Louis noticed that Liu Yuqing shook her head in disgust, the amplitude was very small, and she would never notice it unless she looked carefully.

"Jiang Duo?" Louis asked with a smile, "What's going on?"

Ostertag explained the situation: "It's just...uh...we didn't know his name, so I just gave him a nickname."

"Is it Jiang Duo?"

"Yes!"

Garnett looked at Ostertag in surprise, "What? Isn't his name Jiang Duo?"

Liu Yuqing couldn't bear it anymore, and said in a deep voice, "Who would call this kind of name?"

Garnett asked frankly: "If you didn't say it earlier, what's your name, my big brother?"

Louis knew why Liu Yuqing didn't like to introduce herself.

First of all, he is a typical wolf warrior. In this era when self-made 1450 and *** cents are everywhere in a certain big country in the East, Liu Yuqing is an outlier.He not only has strong patriotic feelings, but also hates those who give themselves a foreign name when they go abroad.

However, Americans usually can't hear his name clearly at once, and often make embarrassing scenes of "Liu what is clear? What is Yuqing? Liu Yu what?" Gradually, he doesn't like to say his name.

In his heart, the name is not important, they are just playing together anyway, why do they have to know each other's name?

"Just call him Jiang Duo, it's fine."

Louis figured out the ins and outs of the matter and let them sit down.

The last to arrive were Benoit Benjamin, Derek Harper and Joe Klein.

As it happens, the three of them are also the edge of the Lakers' inner edge.

Louis had played against them when he was coaching in the past, and they also knew him, so they were not cautious when they came, and they simply said hello and took their seats.

Louis noticed the visible fat on Benoit's body.

He said he is only 250 pounds (about 226 catties) now?Louis didn't believe it, he looked at at least 270 pounds (244 catties).

Before serving, Louie decided to say a few words.

"You all know that I have been working behind the scenes for the past two years, so it is inevitable that I am a little rusty in coaching. I will find the feeling as soon as possible. Among you, there are veterans who have become famous, there are homeless people who have been to multiple teams, there are waste products that others don't want, and there are young people who have just entered the league. I don't care what team you played for before. In Los Angeles, we have only one standard for success, and that is to win and win championships."

"We only have these two goals. Anyone who interferes with our completion of these two goals will be eliminated. Therefore, starting today, I will use stricter standards to ask you. Cherish my smiling face at this moment. You may not see it in the future."

The atmosphere was quite serious.

Bird cleared his throat: "Coach Lu lied to you, believe me, he smiled cutely."

So the restaurant is full of happy air.

Louie looked at Byrd with a half-smile: "You bumpkin, has anyone told you not to say something that spoils the atmosphere when your boss is giving a speech?"

Obviously the restaurant offers red wines from 1985, 1986, 1987 and 1988, but Bird prefers to drink Heineken.

You could tell from what he was drinking that he was a country bumpkin, but he still refused to admit it, and said bluntly: "I don't know what kind of boss would openly call his competent subordinate a bumpkin."

"Well said, where is the applause?" Nelson booed.

The assistant coaches started to applaud, and the players didn't know what was going on, but they also applauded.

Only Coach Lu gritted his teeth angrily, and said, "You're a good ass subordinate, you haven't done a damn thing since you came to L.A., and I'll fire you tomorrow!"

Bird was not affected at all, and said leisurely: "You can fire me at any time, but I will always remember your poor face begging me to come to Los Angeles to help you."

From then on, until everyone finished eating, Louie never stopped picking on Byrd.

But Bird was like opening the hood of absolute defense, making him invulnerable.
