Chapter 813 Finally succeeded
As for who should coach the 1992 Dream Team, the original idea was a college coach.For a long time, everyone took this for granted.Therefore, coach K of Duke University almost became the coach of the dream team.
However, a dispute of public opinion initiated by Louis off the court caused the players to stand in line one after another, and finally fell to another controversial point under the fuel of the league.
Can Louie do it?
This is the original controversy.
Then it became, is Louie right?
After research, the professionals unanimously determined that Louis is the best candidate for the head coach of the dream team.
Since he is the best candidate, what are the members of the Basketball Association and the selection committee waiting for?
In fact, within the Basketball Association and the selection committee, there is a voice that is getting louder and louder: Who said that the Olympic basketball team must be coached by a college coach?On the selection committee, those NBA general managers are absolute supporters of this view.So, things took a different track.
If you want to choose a head coach in the NBA, Louie is the only candidate, because he has won 1984 rings since 5.
Moreover, there is still a period of consecutive championships that has not yet ended.
Coupled with the full support of many professionals, there is only one problem left for Louis to become the coach of the dream team. When will he apply?
If he is American, this is not a problem.
Playing for the country is the obligation of all citizens, but he is not. As a citizen of the British Dependent Territories working in the United States, if he is to become the coach of the US team, he first needs to apply for a job.
But they didn't expect that Louis's views on this matter were not pure.
He refused to send out job applications, and asked the basketball association and selection committee to invite him to be the head coach.
They have never heard of such a thing.
In their view, there is no problem for the dream team to win the championship. For any coach, being able to coach this team will become a shining point in his career.
Among the many positions in the dream team, the head coach is a relatively unimportant one, because no matter who is their coach, winning the championship is certain.
Therefore, after Louis refused to send out a job application, seeing that the matter of hiring him as the head coach of the Dream Team was about to go bankrupt, he did not expect that under the inquiry of the media, Louis would openly challenge the Basketball Association and the selection committee.
The officials of the Basketball Association became furious, so they made a statement that "the coach of the dream team needs to issue a job application by himself".
They deliberately humiliated Louis.
Even if Louis applied, he would not be accepted. They wanted to give this ignorant Asian guy a little color.
As a result, this intensified the contradiction.
Louis once again reiterated his position - never to the Basketball Association issued a job application.
Then, Wilson explicitly declined the Dream Team call-up.
Ewing also turned down the Dream Team call-up.
Bird tactfully sided with Louis and announced his rejection of the Dream Team call-up.
Then Sampson, Isiah Thomas...
The glory dream team suddenly became the source of the plague, and no one wanted to go.
The reason why things are done like this is because the American Basketball Association believes that the selection of the coach is irrelevant, and anyone can go.
As a result, Louis led the wave into an unbearable rhythm.
If this matter is not properly resolved, the dream team will become a joke.
On the day of the incident, the person in charge of the American Basketball Association called David Stern, hoping that he would help persuade Louis.
Stern readily agreed.
About half an hour later, Stern called him back: "I tried my best, but Coach Lu was very firm and reiterated his position that he will not send out job applications."
"Any foreigner who wants to lead Team USA must send out a job application!"
"It's the rule!"
"I can't do anything about it." Stern laughed. "However, the rules are dead. Sometimes, we should be more flexible, shouldn't we? Compared to losing face in front of Coach Road, wouldn't it be more embarrassing for a team without Ralph, Patrick, Benjamin... to play as the Dream Team?"
Stern's words moved the person in charge of the Basketball Association.
They decided to compromise with Louis.
On January 1, the USA Basketball Association sent Louis an official invitation to serve as the head coach of the US men's national basketball team. This invitation letter will be announced to the media on the same day.But at the same time, he has to send out a job application after that, and the rules are the rules.
Louie agreed.
Although the process was a little more difficult than he expected, the American Basketball Association still succumbed to his energy and made a substantial retreat.
On the same day, the American Basketball Association announced that they had formally issued an invitation letter to Louis.
The next day, Louie's agent announced: "Lu is ready to accept this invitation to become the head coach of the U.S. men's national basketball team. At the same time, he also sent a reply letter to the USA Basketball Association, which is a formal job application."
For the first time, professionals recognized Louie's energy.
With his connections and reputation among players, he forcibly changed the rules of the game and won a job that didn't belong to him.
The head coach of the Dream Team, as many people say.
Although they represent the United States, in essence, the Dream Team is the crystallization of wisdom since the birth of basketball 101 years ago. It is an opportunity for the NBA to promote the highest level of basketball to the world and plant seeds in the hearts of teenagers.
Many of them will play in the NBA in the future, and some even beat the Dream Team on behalf of their national team.
If you ask them where it all started, they'll say: the summer of Barcelona in 1992.
For this matter, the Knicks held a special press conference.
Louis announced at the press conference that his job application has been accepted by the American Basketball Association. Therefore, he can now be said to be the official head coach of the American Men's Basketball Team.
In addition, Wilson and Ewing were also at the press conference.
Wilson said with a smile: "If the dream team still needs me, I am willing to join it."
"What are you talking about, Benj." Louis said pretending to be serious, "I'm the head coach of this team. If you want to join, shouldn't you ask me first?"
Wilson caught Louis' play in an instant: "Coach, do you think I can get into your team?"
Louis laughed: "My team can't live without you!"
The two sang together, which made Ewing very embarrassed.
"Of course, there is also Patrick." Louis did not forget that Ewing publicly stood for his team. There is a saying that adversity reveals the truth. Although this is not considered adversity, it is very frustrating to blatantly refuse the call of the national team.
Both Ewing and Wilson sacrificed their personal images for this.
"Many people say that Ralph must be the starting center of the Dream Team. I would say, not necessarily, because I am the head coach, so I will arrange Patrick as the starting center of the Dream Team."
"Coach Lu, are you planning to substitute Ralph?"
"Why did you put him on the bench?" Louis asked amusedly, "Did you forget that Ralph can play power forward?"
