the rest, only noise

Chapter 919 There is no weirdest, only weirder
9 Chapter [-] is not the weirdest, only weirder
Sean Kemp's contract extension is yet to come to fruition.

Kemp's agent was pursuing a contract extension with an annual salary of 550 million, and after Kemp was warned by Louis that day, he never behaved irregularly.

Louis seemed to wake him up.

从那以后，坎普变得规规矩矩，场均拿下21分9篮板3助攻2盖帽和1抢断。

As a power forward, he may only have one drawback, which is that he can't control his foul count.

When did Kemp improve from a player whose average playing time was limited to less than 30 minutes due to too many fouls in each game to a player who averaged 35 minutes per game without worrying about fouls, that was the real evolution.

At this stage, Louie "doesn't want" Kemp to evolve.

Kemp, whose playing time was restricted due to fouls, can just hold the fourth position with Rodman.

Rodman's arrangement for the bench has changed from "I will be the starter when I don't make trouble" to "forget it, whoever likes to play the starter will play".

Compared with the starters and substitutes, the emotional state of Rodman and Madonna is what everyone cares about.

Even teammates would take newspaper gossip and ask him, "Dennis, is this true?"

Rodman, an ostensibly reckless jerk, actually used Madonna's fame to his own benefit.

Madonna was the recognized bad girl, and Rodman wanted to turn himself into the recognized bad boy.

While pro basketball considers him the second-best jerk after Bill Lambiel, that perception doesn't spread widely.

How can I get out of the circle?
Non-mainstream attire, mottled hair, all kinds of inhuman nail rings, in short, those things that make ordinary people think "this is not a good bird", he will wear on his body.

His goal is to become the most famous bad boy in America.

Louie is probably his biggest hurdle in being a bad boy.

A lot of the shit that made him a bad boy would get him suspended.

Rodman will test Louie's boundaries every once in a while. As long as Louis gets angry, he will kneel down like a dog and "lick his feet": "Don't dare to do it again next time."

Louie "believes" him every time.

The competition between Ewing and Wilson unexpectedly failed to enter the top three of the Knicks' recent broken list.

There are certain things about Mohammad Abdul-Rauf that are more alarming than the fight between the two men.

He would read the works of Malcolm X to sublimate his spiritual world on the road trip.

If he just likes to read books, Louis will not make a fuss.

What makes Louie nervous is that the more hostility he receives on the road, the stronger the rebellious psychology in his heart.

Rauf began to pay attention to the black civil rights movement and the long-term oppression and systematic discrimination against black Americans, and he began to frequently visit the slums in the field, caring about black education and the excessive law enforcement of blacks in local prisons.

One day, Rauf came to Louis, hoping to get an independent prayer room on the road.

Moreover, starting this year, he will fast for a certain period of time every year.

"I can fight for the prayer room for you, fasting?" Louis hated these silly things when he was full and had nothing to do. "If I understand correctly, you plan to go without eating or drinking for a long time during the day for a month?"

Rauf took it for granted: "This is an opportunity that the Lord has given us to experience the hardships of life."

Louis laughed angrily.

"Okay, tell me what month is Ramadan in 1993?"

Rauf is clearly ready for this: "It starts on February 2 and ends on March 22."

"How long were you fasting each day during this time?" Louie asked.

"Usually anywhere from 11-16 hours."

"I just want to know how long you're going to fast."

Louie gradually became impatient, and things happened one after another.

"I'm a religious person." Rauf's words made Louie hard to accept. "I fast for 16 hours a day during Ramadan."

"That is to say, during the season, you have to live a life of only eating one meal a day for a whole month? During this period, you still have to participate in training, play games, and travel everywhere with us?"

Rauf nodded and said, "If I'm not injured, yes."

"Fuck!"

Louie exploded on the spot.

The reason why Rauf fell and why he failed to make a name for himself is already clear.

An epoch-making player who never received proper guidance in school, got the same type of madness as Kyrie Irving after entering professional basketball.

He will definitely come up with other things in the future.

It's hard to tolerate such a person, okay?
"Do you know how much effort the coaching staff has put in to get you to the level of competition you have today?"

Louis asked in a low voice.

"Only eat one meal a day for a month?" Louis said angrily, "You will ruin the training plan that Kaminsky prepared for you, and the hard work of the past two years will be in vain!"

Rauf said heartlessly, "This is the price in the plan, and the Lord will show me the way out."

Oh yeah, what did your Lord do when you were being traded around like crap?
Louis didn't utter the harsh sarcasm.

"If you decide to do this, I will let you truce during Ramadan." Louis wants to let Rauf know what the "price" is. "The team will still pay you a salary, but you don't need to participate in training, and you don't need to participate in home and away games. You just need to stay at home and serve your lord."

Rauf quickly said: "I have no injuries, I will find a good state during Ramadan, there will be no problem."

"You have your persistence, and I have mine." Louie said without hesitation, "I respect your beliefs, and I support you to live like a true believer for this. But as the Knicks coach, I will not let a player who only eats one meal a day and will have physical problems participate in high-intensity training sessions and games."

Whenever Louie was disappointed with this troubled squad, he went to practice.

At least, he can see six players with a good attitude.

Yu Tiancan asked McHale, who hadn't played this season, for advice on low-post footwork time and time again.

McHale is an idler right now, but he's willing to help young players improve
However, Louis didn't think that with a few pointers from McHale, Yu Tiancan's low-post offense would be able to break through.

Low post attack is not difficult to say, but to practice to the extreme, it requires talent.

There is a simple example in China - this time there is no Zhou Qi.

Xiao Wang, who is now boarding at Louis's house, was a Megatron player in Asia in his previous life. After returning to the Bayi team when he was old, he helped the team beat Guangdong at its peak and win the CBA's last Supreme Tripod without foreign aid. After that, he became depressed.During the years when Wang Zhizhi returned to the CBA, has the Bayi team produced a player with excellent low-post moves?If this stuff can be taught on a hands-on basis, players with a natural good low-post feel will not be so bright.

Everything that can be practiced is very valuable, but what is really rare is those innate talents.

If God does not give it to you, you will not get it anyway.

Yu Tiancan trains hard, he is the most low-key in the lottery show among the students in his class.

Because in the Knicks, he wasn't even a starter.

Besides Yu Tiancan, Wang Mukong also worked hard.

He lives a life of two points and one line. If the Knicks return home, he will come and train with him. If the Knicks go away, he will go to the Development League to play and train.

Only when the Knicks are injured, he has the opportunity to play the game.

Even so, he worked hard.

He's trying to get strong, trying to memorize the N.UCLA system's running game, trying to fit in with everyone else, trying to get a foothold in the Knicks.

No one in the Knicks team dares to say that he works harder than Wang Mukong, but it is hard to say whether he can stay in the Knicks in the end.

The other four who worked hard were Stevens, Wilson, Miller, and Ewing.

Wei and You are used to introverting each other.

If Wilson practiced for two hours, Ewing would practice for two hours plus 10 minutes.

In short, he must have practiced more than Wilson.

Miller is purely a personal passion.

Stevens' professional attitude has always been an example for his teammates, and he deserves to be the soul of the team.

Seeing these people, Louis regained hope. Although this was a 15-member team—only 6 people gave him hope—at least it was not pitch black, and even Daoguang could not be seen.

The only remaining gimmick in the NBA in 1992 was the Christmas game.

The Knicks' opponent is the Portland Trail Blazers, who have only lost one game so far this season.

April 12

开拓者139比88狂屠子弹，乔丹24分钟内拿下30分，托马斯30分钟内拿下28分，巴克利拿下27分17篮板，萨博尼斯得到14分10篮板12助攻的三双数据，加上南斯“平平无奇”的18分8篮板。

Portland's Big Five continued their unstoppable momentum with a bloody kill.

For the upcoming Christmas game, Jordan, the core of the team, was so excited that the corner of his mouth rose: "I have been waiting for this game for more than five months."

That's right, the Blazers are ready.

The Knicks are still struggling with all kinds of troubles.
