the rest, only noise

Chapter 606 True Strength

"Rudy, this is the fourth day of our diet."

In Louis' office, he warmly greeted his favorite colleague.

Tomjanovich smiled wryly, "How are you doing?"

"I think I can stick to it." Louie laughed. "I met a homeless man in the morning. He praised me for my good skin. It's all thanks to my weight loss."

Zhao Yuanzheng saw that both Louis and Tomjanovich looked unhappy.

Later, he discovered that Louie and Tomjanovich had the same meal kits.

"Why do you use the same meal bag?" Zhao Yuanzheng asked.

Louis explained: "Obviously, Rudy and I are on a diet to lose weight, which was suggested by Marlene. She heard about it in the Mommy Baby training class at 23-77, Building 77, Madison Avenue."

"I just don't understand, isn't your daughter already 2 years old?"

"Yes, my son has learned to swear."

"Xiao Zhao, my child is not called swearing, but vocabulary cognitive impairment." Louis couldn't help explaining to the eldest son, "Although this child is smart since he was a child, he still doesn't know the specific meaning of 'WTF'."

Zhao Yuanzheng stared at their lunch, "Is this weight loss method scientific?"

"Is it science? Your question is not level."

Sitting next to Tomjanovich, Louis said: "Rudy and I spent a day formulating recipes and contacting the restaurant. Every meal was planned in advance and delivered to the door by the little brother in the restaurant. Look, this is our lunch."

Zhao Yuanzheng looked at it with his head.

He saw a loaf of whole wheat bread, five cashews, and a small box of dipping sauce.

"That's it?"

Tomjanovich said: "Yes, it's very 'rich', sometimes I can't finish it."

"I think you are doing too much." Zhao Yuanzheng felt that no one could successfully lose weight in this way. He ignored Louis's small belly and said against his will, "I think you all have good figures."

Tomjanovich couldn't hold back now.

"Well, you have to talk to Coach Lu about this, he thinks 'good' should not be the standard for a champion coach, he wants to be the best."

Louie has finished his lunch.

"That's right, it also helps to enhance our team spirit." Louis tidied up the meal kit, "Rudy and I will definitely be able to lose weight successfully."

After speaking, Louis walked out of his office.

After Louis left, Zhao Yuanzheng said the truth: "No, you lose weight too? You don't need it at all, Rudy."

Tomjanovich said bitterly: "He wants to share weal and woe with me, and it is necessary to control my weight so that I can reduce a lot of diseases when I get older. To be honest, he is right, and I think so too, eh."

Zhao Yuanzheng just felt sorry for Tomjanovich, a comrade in his forties who was strong enough to take another punch from Kermit Washington, but was led by Louis to lose weight. The staple food for lunch every day was a piece of whole wheat bread.
"How about I tell Lu that you want to take my place, so you two young people lose weight together, and I don't have to suffer along with it." Tomjanovich said naturally.

Zhao Yuanzheng suddenly felt suffocated.

In those few seconds of silence, Tomjanovich was more embarrassing than the female reporter who listened to the furious "RNM money back" of the national football fans.

Zhao Yuanzheng found a way to change the subject.

"Rudy, there are still a lot of organic matter in the meal bag. You can lick it. How can you lose weight if you don't eat enough? So what, I have something to do with the road coach, what about others?"

"He just left, in front of you."

"Oh, is it?" Zhao Yuanzheng has basic acting skills, "You see, my brain is really bad. I haven't seen Coach Lu for a few minutes. It feels like Coach Lu disappeared in front of me for a few minutes."

Tomjanovich: "."

Louie held Coke in his hand, the only thing he couldn't quit during the weight loss period.

If he doesn't drink Coke, his brain will become dull, people will become cranky, and every full moon will turn into a gorilla and climb up the Empire State Building. Well, this one will not, but everyone has seen how terrible an angry Louie is.

Therefore, no one questioned whether Louie's weight loss plan was just taking off his pants and farting with "Why don't you stop drinking Coke now that you have started to lose weight."

Billy Donovan watched the duel on the field with a serious expression.

"Is anyone dead?" Louie asked.

Donovan answered Louie earnestly; "I do think people are going to die on the pitch, 'Jamaica Star' and 'Big Shoulder Wind' played a very intense game."

As you can tell from the names, the Jamaica Stars are Ewing's team, and the Giant Shoulders are Wilson's team.

He is a native of Chicago, also known as the Windy City and the City of Giant Shoulders.

When the Celtics fell behind 1-3 in the Eastern Conference finals last season, Louie changed the intensity of the Knicks' matchups.

Since then, the intensity has not been adjusted back.

The Knicks' daily confrontation is like a fast-paced playoff game, and the sense of competition between Ewing and Wilson has been greatly strengthened.

Louis watched for half a minute before he realized what Donovan was worried about.

Too intense.

And it's not just the intense physical collisions, the verbal conflicts between them are also intense.

Wilson rushed in with the ball. He gained 11 pounds during the offseason and became an extremely strong forward.

Therefore, he went to Ewing to head-on, pushed Ewing away and completed a layup.

"Patrick, 1 million a year is not that easy to earn." Wilson provocatively said.

Before Ewing could get back on the field, McHale hit back with his signature up and down steps.

"Benj, no matter how dissatisfied you are, Patrick will get more money than you."

"Really? I don't think so." Wilson rubbed his sneakers deliberately.

He is a popular star of Converse, and just this summer, he signed a surprising endorsement contract with Converse.

In order to catch Wilson's championship enthusiasm, Converse hastily released Wilson's first "Converse Weapon" boots in September.

Ewing would have earned more than Wilson.

But his external image is too bad. A star who is indifferent and refuses to smile will not be loved by the media.

Wilson was a natural icon, easily picking up what Ewing rejected.

Behind them, their agency team also launched a media relations debate over the summer of who the Knicks are the top.

Things are tough for Dan Marley and Ronnie Secali.

Ewing put Sekali down every round, and even though his "foul voice" broke his throat, the referee Brad Rohaus didn't blow his whistle.

Marly showed off his range on the first day of training camp, and then was physically killed by the veterans.

It is impossible for him to find the touch in the team match, so his daily training program has changed from 100% training with the ball to 60% training without the ball and 40% training with the ball.

What is the result of doing this?
His physical confrontation will gradually catch up and adapt to the intensity of confrontation in the Knicks team, but the lack of training with the ball and the muscle tension caused by a lot of strength training will make his muscle memory lose its direction.

Some people will spend months or even years to find it slowly, and some people just lose it and never get it back.

This rivalry showed Louis the true intensity.

When Rodman came to the "Jamaica Stars", he also played heavily on Wilson's defense.

Under him, Wilson was overthrown several times.

In turn, Wilson's defense kept him out of sight of the basketball.

Although McHale had a playful smile on his face, it was difficult for him to survive in an atmosphere where everyone regarded his teammates as enemies.

He was just about to make an up and down step, and was violated by John Sely on the cylinder.

Rohaus hasn't called a foul today.

"Brad, isn't this a foul?"

"Kevin, don't be a bitch!" Ewing scolded his teammates angrily, "The bastard on the other side has never asked for a foul!"

The Knicks' intra-team match is divided into two halves, and the latest rule is 12 minutes per half.

Therefore, the entire game time is only half of the official game.

But the intensity is too high.

Today is a special case where emotions on both sides go to extremes.

Ewing took the ball with his back, and Wilson left Rodman alone, putting great pressure from the side.

Sekali seriously wanted to keep up with the strength of the old players. His confrontation was far from enough, but with Wilson's help, he even dared to attack Ewing.

Ewing fumbled the ball, and Rodman flew out of bounds to save it back, only to save it into his opponent's hands.

"You might as well not pounce on it." Louis complained.

Rodman laughed and said, "I'm used to it."

He missed coming back because of chatting with Louie and was trying to get lazy and show some guy in the future who was going to wait for the pass to go to the empty basket on purpose to show him how to score properly when something happened up the frontcourt.

Except for Rodman, the other four Jamaica Stars all returned to defense.

Hornacek's ground pass to Wilson was extremely tricky.

At a 45-degree angle on the left, Wilson cuts in with the ball and jumps up to a height of one meter. Ewing is under the basket and wants to stop it, but he can no longer prevent Wilson who is jumping forward.

In this case, the center forward who takes off on the spot has no advantage.

Wilson knocked Ewing to the ground in the air, and smashed a dunk that made Donovan open his mouth in disbelief.

What intensified the matter was Wilson's behavior after dunking the ball and landing, he actually stepped over Ewing's body directly.

"!#@￥%￥#..."

Ewing got up muttering words that no one could understand, and pushed Wilson down from behind.If it weren't for the teammates around him to stop him, the fist would have fallen on Wilson's body at this moment.

Overthrown, Wilson realized what he had just done.

Fortunately, this group of people knew what was the most important thing, and the tense atmosphere suddenly turned into a group of peacemakers to appease Ewing, who had transformed into a full moon King Kong.

"Sorry, Patrick." Wilson walked up to Ewing and apologized, "I just overdid it."

Ewing wanted to punch Wilson in the face, but he had already apologized, what else could he say?
"Patrick, show some grace." Louie shouted dissatisfied.

Ewing bit his lip and said, "I was also at fault."
