Some bubbles cannot be popped.

Ranbir soon came into contact with Louis' terrifying eyes.

He wanted to take back his words, but it was too late.

"Get out and keep shooting your three-pointers!" Louie shouted, "4,000 three-pointers! Don't even think about going home until you finish shooting today!"

Ranbir's face turned red and he said, "You are avenging a public and private revenge!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Louis sneered, "Is there anyone in this room who doesn't know that I am avenging my personal revenge?"

Ranbir couldn't explain why and left angrily.

After he left, Louis pretended that nothing happened and smiled brightly: "Where did we just talk?"

※※※

On the first day of the preseason training camp, Louis introduced his coaching philosophy to the players, and he painted a wonderful blueprint.

He made everyone believe that under the new system, the Celtics would play a completely different style from the past.

In the evening, the players were almost finished walking.

Only Laimbeer was left to shoot three-pointers, and the unfortunate Guy Williams was forced to stay as a ball boy.

Louis stayed in his office and repeatedly read articles by Vladimir Kondrashin, the coach of the former Soviet men's basketball team.

For the first time, he felt that basketball was a repetitive routine.

Techniques can be improved, and physical fitness can become stronger and stronger, but the routines are still the same.

"Fast break has become the real master of the court, and the offense is more diverse and more effective. This is not only reflected in the obvious increase in shooters in each team, but also that they shoot without pausing as soon as they get the ball, and they shoot from 7-8 meters.

.This also shows that in modern basketball, the shooting area has expanded. Secondly, the range of the center's offense has obviously expanded, and even some tall centers above 2.06-2.10 meters often attack from the outside."

This was the summary made by Kondrashin after the 1974 World Championships.

A coach with this kind of vision and insight can achieve success in any era.

Moreover, this is his summary after leading the team in the competition, which shows that many teams have already adopted this style.

The lights were on in Louis' office, and the only noise he could hear was Laimbeer's pitch.

The sound gradually disappeared, and he guessed that Ranbir had sneaked back home.

Originally, he never thought that Laimbeer would actually finish 4,000 shots. The fact that he dared to sneak home meant that Laimbeer was thinking, "What can Louis do to him?", so Louis was very pleased.

Louis didn't expect that someone was still at the Greek Academy and came directly to him.

Is there really someone who doesn’t want to play for him?

"Come in," said Louis.

The door opened, and in came Ralph Sampson.

Now his weight has reached 116 kilograms. Compared with the lanky appearance when he first entered the league, he has a lot of flesh. This weight is very suitable for him. Although it is difficult to guard against individual ferocious low-post monsters, his weight is not suitable in the short term.

Go up again.

If it rises any further, mobility and athletic ability will decrease, and the risk of injury will increase.

"Did Bill run away?" Louis asked.

Sampson laughed and said: "You don't really believe that he will just throw 4,000 balls and then go home, do you?"

"This vicious dog, I will repair him tomorrow." Louis looked very angry on the surface.

Sampson is the one Louis feels most at ease with. Apart from John Long, he has the best relationship with Louis among the Celtics.

"It's not too early now, aren't you going home?" Sampson seemed to be running out of words to talk to.

Louis smiled and said: "Ralph, there is no need to be so polite between us, just say whatever you want."

"Okay, then I'll just tell you."

You really don’t want to play for me? You don’t?

Louis raised his eyes and heard Sampson say: "I listened carefully to what you said in the video room today. If I remember correctly, we will have four new offensive systems. The tactical core of the No. 1 system is Larry

and Isiah; the core of System No. 2 is Larry; the core of System No. 3 is Isiah; the core of System No. 4 is Larry.”

"You did a good job taking notes," Louis smiled, "Do you have any ideas?"

"have."

Sampson asked seriously: "Why is there no offensive system led by me?"

If Sampson hadn't asked himself, Louis would have been surprised.

It is best for him to ask directly, which means that he is just confused, not angry or angry, and has no grudges in his heart.

"This is a long topic. Sit down and let's talk slowly." Louis called, "Lao Zhou, according to the amount I usually eat, the dishes are still the same. It's for two people."

Sampson said: "I'm not hungry. I'll leave when the matter is cleared up."

"I said this for a long time. Although you are not hungry, I am. If you are greedy again later, will you put your hand into my plate again?"

Louis also likes to steal other people's food, but his food protection habit is very serious. He only allows himself to steal other people's food, and does not allow others to steal his own.

Thinking of stealing Louis' dumplings before, Sampson smiled awkwardly.

"If I say that the failure to formulate your own offensive system is entirely due to your ability, would you accept it?"

All superstars have a competitive nature. If you say he is not as good as someone, he may appear humble on the surface, but in his heart he may not know how to greet your family.

If it's between friends, they will reveal their true nature on the spot.

"Why am I not as good as Larry and Isiah?"

"Calm down."

"The ability issue I'm talking about doesn't mean you're not as good as Larry and Isiah." Louis gave an analogy, "Just like I've never been hard on Marilyn Monroe, it doesn't mean she's not good-looking, it's just that she's

Being coquettish doesn't interest me, do you understand?"

Sampson said expressionlessly: "I don't understand. Marilyn is so sexy. How dare you say that you have no feelings for her?"

"Including Audrey Hepburn, I have never discovered her beauty." Louis laughed.

Sampson felt that he was off topic: "Are these two different things?"

"It's the same thing."

"If I were to make a Category III film, and you brought 20-year-old Jane Fonda, Marilyn Monroe, and Audrey Hepburn into my crew, who would you say would be the first among them?

Take off your clothes?"

Sampson was silent. He knew that Louis was comparing.

"If I had to choose, I would choose to let Ms. Fonda let us take a look first, but the market will definitely force me to let Marilyn take off her clothes first." Louis pointed out, "In any case, the person who takes off her clothes first will not be Hepburn, because

She is not suitable for third-level movies at all."

Sampson asked: "Are you saying I'm not a good fit?"

"Note, I'm making an analogy." Louis laughed, "If my only choice was Hepburn, of course I would go all out to arrange a wonderful third-level film according to her style, but now I have

Fonda and Monroe, they are both more suitable than Hepburn. A good movie must highlight the key points, and the same is true for a football game. Just because I don't give Hepburn a chance doesn't mean that her ability is not good."

Louis used something completely unrelated to basketball to make Sampson understand his thoughts.

"But, I don't want to just be a supporting role." Sampson understood, but found it difficult to accept.

Louis asked back: "Did I say you would be a supporting role?"

Growing up, Sampson was instilled with the idea of ​​achieving greatness.

His position is center, which is the position with the most superstars in NBA history. When he was in college, he was compared with Russell, Chamberlain, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

But after three years in the league, he has stagnated a bit.

He has been a substitute for three consecutive seasons and is not in the best lineup. Although he has All-Stars and second defense, this is not what the public expects of him.

I thought that becoming the coach would increase his tactical status, but he was disappointed.

Although Louis' reasons convinced him, he was Hepburn in his eyes, while Bird and Thomas were Fonda and Monroe.

It's easier to build an offense around them.

What makes Sampson unwilling is that he can become the core of the offense in most teams, but not in the Celtics.

Louis saw through his little thoughts, took out his notebook, turned to one of the pages, and put the notebook in front of Sampson.

"You are the second person besides me who has seen this."

Sampson discovered that this was set by Louis. The second lineup, transition lineup, fighting lineup, big lineup and small lineup were too detailed, and each player's playing time was marked.

Position 1: Isiah Thomas (32 minutes), Gerald Henderson (10 minutes), John Paxson (6 minutes)

Position 2: John Long (26 minutes), Danny Ainge (22 minutes), Carr (5 minutes)

Position 3: Larry Bird (25 minutes), Cedric Maxwell (20 minutes)

Position 4: Larry Bird (15 minutes), Ralph Sampson (20 minutes), Cedric Maxwell (10 minutes)
