MTL - The Rest, Only Noise-Chapter 18 out of the way
When Louis saw Ranbir's name, he suddenly came to his senses.
Of course he knows what kind of villain he is, and at the same time he also knows that this villain was elected to the All-Star Game. He should have 15+10 statistics at his peak, and he can also shoot three-pointers. A lunatic who will do anything to achieve his goals, he can do anything to win. Badass with sleazy moves.
The Celtics have never been a very clean team.
If McHale's clothesline foul on Rambis in 1984 happened to another team, no matter who it was, there would be follow-up pressure. At the time, the NBA needed this kind of punch-to-the-flesh confrontation, and having the Celtics' most honest-looking McHale do it was just too impactful.
That was a turning point in the series, as powerful as the 1977 final between Maurice Lucas and Daryl Dawkins.
A conflict completely changed the course of the series.
Louie hadn't seen Laimbeer's scouting report, and in fact, there wasn't any scouting report in the nation that was written specifically for Laimbeer.
He's a typical big white guy with no skills and slow jumps.
This kind of player was fine 20 years ago, but now everyone's eyes are picky.
The advantage of the traversers allowed Louis to lock Lambiel early.
While the others are on vacation, Louie is starting a new phase of his work.
Through several inquiries, he had a preliminary understanding of Ranbir.
Although he was born in Boston, he grew up in Chicago before moving to California with his father. His father, Owen, was the president of a public company, so his family lived on the estate. But Ranbir doesn't have his father's business talent, but he has a good athletic talent.
His father therefore "despised" him.
He also "despised" himself.
This made him invisibly develop a habit of giving up on himself. He was admitted to the University of Notre Dame and was expelled for repeatedly violating the school rules. He then went back to Notre Dame after two semesters at Owens Institute of Technology in Toledo, Ohio, where his father found a relationship.
Knowing that he was not destined to be a successful businessman like his father, he wanted to use his body to play basketball.
However, Notre Dame head coach "The Digger" Digger Phelps didn't appreciate him.
To learn more, Louis applied to Auerbach for a business trip.
Secondary scouts are not like senior scouts. They cannot use funds at will, and must report to the team every time they travel.
"The new season hasn't started yet, where are you going on business?" Auerbach asked angrily.
With a relaxing smile on Louis' face, he was as non-aggressive as the young ladies standing on Boston's East Street in the middle of the night: "I stumbled upon a new target."
"Who?" Auerbach asked.
"Secret." Louis instinctively kept secrets.
Auerbach frowned: "You'd better find out who is approving your funds!"
"Bill Ranbir of Notre Dame!" The most important thing in life is to understand that those who know current affairs are heroes.
Auerbach had never heard the name. "Who is this?"
"An unknown potential center." Louis believes that Auerbach will not refuse to grant him funding.
That said, Auerbach was careful to approve the $3,000 grant.
"That's all?" Louie thought $3,000 was a lot, but he wanted to see if he could get more out of Auerbach's pocket.
Auerbach seemed to be in a bad mood: "You can either continue on vacation, or get out of here with funding!"
"Reed, you look bad."
Auerbach directly ordered the expulsion: "Is there anything else?"
"That's it, I've been looking for a Chinese restaurant that best suits Chinese tastes recently, and I really found one, do you need me to show you the way?" Louis' cheerful look made Auerbach feel cheated. "You've been eating Chinese food for so many years, don't you want to try the authentic taste?"
Auerbach had a hard time believing that Louis would be so kind.
"Do you have any purpose?"
"You really make me sad, I treat you as a friend..." Auerbach never regarded him as a friend, and their age gap was too great.
Just when Auerbach thought he had misunderstood him, Louis added in a low voice, "If you could give me another $1,000 before I set off..."
"There is no door!" Auerbach vowed, "This is already a travel fee for a senior scout, don't haggle with me!"
Is it really untouchable?
Louis couldn't think of Auerbach's purse so tight that he didn't use his money. Why was he nervous?
"Okay... There is a new Chinese restaurant on Charleston Street in West Boston. The owner's surname is Zhou." Louis could only taste the sweetness for Auerbach first. "This shop, especially their fried noodles, OMG, I can't describe in words, with him, you have all of China!"
This is of course the world's number one blowing jiba, but the more ruthless it is, the more people believe it.
If he didn't brag like that, Auerbach might not really be interested.
"Got it!" Auerbach waved Louis to get out.
After Louis left, Auerbach called the finance department.
"The kid will go to your place to get funding later. I filled in the wrong number on the funding slip. I'll give him $4,000." After the instructions, Auerbach hung up the phone.
He's not believing that Louie will find anything good on this trip, he just appreciates the attitude of working from the first second of the offseason.
Besides, he doesn't have time to get distracted by other things right now.
The change in ownership of the team made him uneasy. The new boss, Brown, is a man with a strong sense of autonomy, and the operations he performed in Brofa were a headache. If he wasn't his own boss, Auerbach would be glad there was such a silly ratio in the league. Although it wasn't him who took advantage, as long as this stupidity existed for a day, he would have the opportunity to take advantage.
But suddenly, UU reading www. This silly uukanshu.com became his own boss.
It felt sour and refreshing, as if someone had given him an enema with chili water.
For other things, Auerbach can't be sure, but he can be sure that he doesn't want to be anyone's sidekick. He wants to control the operation of the team. Without this, he would rather not be in charge of the Celtics.
Even if he has been here for 28 years.
History is full of self-respecting, manipulative owners who have joined the Celtics, always clashing with Auerbach and then being driven away by the latter. And this time, Auerbach felt exhausted, he was a little tired.
Unaware of the flooding inside the team, Louie was delighted to find that the finance department had given him $4,000.
"Is there something wrong with my understanding, or did you make mistakes?" Although he really wanted to ask for more money, he didn't want to cause others to make mistakes. "Reid's grant of $3,000 means $4,000?"
Someone from the finance department told me with tears in their eyes, "No, Reed just called and said the number on the check was wrong."
This old stuff...
Louis was slightly moved and took the money.
He hoped that Auerbach would go to the Chinese restaurant he recommended for dinner.
In this way, that new Chinese restaurant can get publicity - by the way, it was opened by his friend - Auerbach's shop should be a good sign, and then he can also get 1000 in it. USD promotion fee.
Hmm... Although it's a bit ugly to "eat the inside and the outside", but Louis is also forced by life, and he believes that all people who stand in the perspective of God will understand him.
