the rest, only noise

Chapter 126 Sudden Volcanic Eruption

1983/5/6

The Celtics went into overtime against the Bucks at the Milwaukee Stadium.

Only tonight, God intends to expel the green ghost.

Sampson picked up his sixth foul late in the fourth quarter of regulation and was ejected, and Lambiel was carried off the field with a bloody eye after a ferocious elbow from Bob Lanier.

Isiah Thomas let go of his negativity and went all out.

For the third consecutive life-and-death battle, he was the Celtics' most aggressive player because of Bird's poor touch.

Although the smiling assassin scored 34 points, the Bucks still narrowly won by 1 point.

4 is better than 2
The Bucks advanced, and Louie felt ironic watching them celebrate each other as if they had won a championship.

If, this round of the series is coached by him from the beginning, maybe the big score will be reversed.

Because they are behind 0 to 3, they have no fault tolerance.

The objective conditions were not good for Louis. He temporarily took over a team whose morale was at the bottom, and he didn't have time to adjust. Moreover, he started with a 0-3 start.For the Bucks to win a promotion, they need to win 4 games in a row.

He let out a sigh of relief, anyway, in the three games he coached, 2 wins and 1 loss, he has no reason to blame himself.

He's done as much as he can to delay the outcome of this series.

Louie walks over to Don Nelson.

Nelson sighed: "If you were the head coach of the Celtics from the beginning, maybe the result of this round of the series would be different."

"Congratulations." Louis smiled irresistibly, congratulating Nelson and his Bucks generously.

At the press conference that night, Bird, who has never liked to greet the media proactively, was the first to say: "We won't be here for too long. This is an unacceptable loss."

Bird got a triple-double. Although his offensive touch is not good, he is very comprehensive and can flood both ends of the game with his influence.

When the reporters once again ignored Thomas' 34 points and focused on asking Bird, he thought of Louie's words.

The reporter asked him: "What is the reason for your ups and downs?"

Bird replied: "Ask Isiah, without him, we can't reach overtime, he is the one who maintains the best state among us."

Thomas didn't necessarily appreciate Bird's compliment.

Because everyone knows that the problem is not between Bird and Thomas, but that the reporter deliberately enlarged Bird's image.

The way they interviewed always made people think that Bird was the only star in the Celtics.

"I have nothing to say, next season, we will be better."

Thomas ended the media's questions very directly.

"Coach Lu, what do you think of these three games?"

This is the last question. Louis looked at the other party and said calmly: "As a rookie in the coaching position, I am grateful. There are many players in our team who are older than me. Their views on basketball are far stronger than mine. But they are willing to accept my command. This is the greatest affirmation for me."

Thomas listened carefully to what Louie had to say.

Game5, after abandoning him, the Celtics fought that game.

After the game, Louie didn't specifically talk to him, didn't explain why he wasn't used, didn't say anything.

Tonight, Louis still put him in the starting lineup and arranged tactics for him, and he completed Louis' arrangement seriously.So he stayed on the field.

This is what Louie values ​​as a coach.

What he cares about is whether you listen to him or not. As for other things, as long as it doesn't affect the team, he doesn't bother to pay attention.

Isiah Thomas remembered it.

They went back to the locker room together, and Louie closed the door behind him.

"Aren't you reconciled?"

Louis asked.

"I think you all know that in terms of strength, we are above the Bucks. If the series is played again, we will win very simply."

Louis asked with a faint smile: "Why is this happening? Why? Why did you lose the first three games in that way?"

According to the general practice, after losing the playoffs, the coach can leave after saying a few comforting words in the locker room.

KC Jones squinted his eyes, why did Louis look like he wanted to blame him?
"Let me be blunt." Louie said loudly, "You don't like Coach Fitch, you want him out of class, so you teamed up to play negatively and gave up those three games. Now, I stand here to prove that your plan is a complete success. Am I right?"

Lambiel turned into a one-eyed dragon. His eyeball was fine, but there was a big cut in the corner of his eye.

"Exactly!" he responded to Louis.

"Damn it!" Louie pointed at Lambiel angrily, "Do you fucking think this is a big deal?"

Lambiel didn't dare to reply with a playful smile.

"To be honest, I should thank you for doing this. Because of you, I became the youngest head coach in the history of the league. What you have done put me in a position that is seriously out of line with my age." Louie's tone changed, and he suddenly criticized the players fiercely, "But, don't think I will thank you! You gang of corrupt bastards can play negatively in order to drive away the coach you don't like. You are sorry for the salary you get. I am sorry for the fans who support you. I am sorry for the expectations of the management. I am sorry for yourself. !"

"You have set a bad example! From today onwards, as long as players don't like their coaches, they can sacrifice the game in exchange for the opponent's dismissal. Congratulations, bastards, you have successfully created a new history. In the future, all of you will be remembered as 'creator'. I have never seen such a shameless player!"

"enough!"

Bird rose to his feet and roared, "I'm not with them!"

"You bumpkin, do you think you're innocent?" Louis asked sarcastically.

"I never gave up on any game!" Bird said confidently.

"Oh, really?" Louie sneered, "I admit that you have an attitude on the court, I believe you are the one who wants to win the most among these bastards, but I tell you, don't think that you are innocent if you try your best! You have witnessed these bastards rape your professionalism, and you have watched them humiliate Coach Fitch off the court, but just keep silent and put your head in useless efforts! You think you have no shame, I tell you, silence is not the solution to the problem, You are a fucking accomplice!"

KC Jones discovers he never knew Louie.

The Louis he was familiar with was able to be friends with everyone, he would never swear or yell loudly, but today, he saw Louis berate the players ferociously, demanding that they be responsible for this round of the series.

Bird blushed when Louis scolded him, and was so angry that he couldn't speak a word.

"If you hate Coach Fitch, you can jointly write a letter to Reed asking him to change; if Reed doesn't care, you can write to Mr. Mandrian. I believe that no one can ignore your joint letter. Coach Fitch will leave in a more decent way, but you drove him away at the price of ending this season!"

"Don't stare at me, I'm just an acting coach, I don't give a fuck what you bastards think of me!"

"Now, pack your things, tuck your tails like a bitch who lost his dick and get back to the hotel!"

Louis angrily walked towards the door, and KC was so frightened that he made way for him.

Louis slammed the door hard and left. Through the door, the players could still hear the former's scolding—"A group of shameless bastards! Idiot! I'm grass@￥#"

Neither KC Jones nor Rudy Tomjanovich understood why Louie would do it.

He took over Fitch's team and quickly lifted the team's morale, winning two games and allowing the Celtics to leave with dignity.

Presumably no one has doubts about his ability.

However, Louis smashed his achievements in just 10 minutes.

He ripped off the faces of these millionaires, threw them on the ground, and shitted in front of them.

"He pushed harder and I cried in shame."

Lambiel forced himself to speak, and the atmosphere in the locker room improved.

However, the humiliation imposed by Louis made their cheeks hot.

Losing Game6 ended this round of the series. They were only unwilling.

Now they feel ashamed and ashamed, and yes, like Louie said, they drove Fitch away by tying their professionalism.

On the bus back to the hotel, no one spoke.

Louis fell asleep in his seat. These days, he was so nervous that it was difficult to fall asleep. On average, he only closed his eyes for 4 hours a day, and his sleep quality was extremely low.

He knew that his future and destiny depended on his performance in fighting the fire.

If he plays well, he might be able to skyrocket. If he messes up, he'll have to wait a few more years.

He didn't want to wait, so he threw himself into it every day.

The next day, they returned to Boston on time.

A group of journalists waited outside the airport.

The "Boston Morning News" reporter asked Louie: "What is the inspiration for you at the end of the sixth game, how do you evaluate the performance of the players?"

"There is no special inspiration. If you can't win, you go home. All of us know this." The players walked past Louie one by one and heard him say, "I am very satisfied with the performance of the players. They persisted like fighters to the end. You can't find a better team than them in the league. The only problem is how to stimulate their full energy. But I am basically satisfied with the process of the few games I coached. People move forward."

"Proud of us, honored to lead us?" Lambiel whispered, "I believe it, how about you?"
