"We have to fight for Louis!"

At the end of the half of the Eastern Conference Final Game 1, Larry Bird told reporters.

Louis thanked him very much, but there was no need to. He was not only asking Jack Maden for trouble like this because the other party humiliated him with discriminatory language, but more importantly, he had to have his own sense of existence.

He doesn't want to be a puppet on the bench.

To have a sense of presence in the game, it is necessary to speak out. If a bastard like Maden doesn't let him speak out, he will be suffocated to death. The other party insulted him with "Orientals", but instead he said.

Racial discrimination is a sensitive red line. Although it is not as exaggerated as 40 years later, no one will touch him.

What's more, "Orientals" are already "discriminatory words" that are explicitly prohibited at the government level.

The Celtics, determined to fight for Louis, lost their first game.

96 to 94

They only lost 2 points.

Bird was completely unafraid of facing Dr. J., who made 13 of 24 shots and scored 27 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists. Dr. J filled the data bar, scored 29 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks.

"Louis, you have to control your temper!" Fitch said angrily after returning to the locker room.

"I have some thoughts about the game tonight." Louis didn't want to explain more. "The gap between us and Philadelphia is very small. Tonight, we only lost five rebounds to them on the worrying rebounds, but we had nine fewer defensive rebounds than them."

Fitch heard the clouds and mist, "What do you want to explain? We lost a lot of offensive rebounds?"

"No, we grab more offensive rebounds, what we really need to improve is the quality of the defense."

Louis's snatch is actually a simple answer: "Their overall shooting percentage is 48%, while our overall shooting percentage is only 41%. The 76ers are a strong defensive team. I don't think we can improve our offensive efficiency in the next game. What we can do is reduce their offensive efficiency."

There are many things that Fitch didn't expect today.

It was unexpected that Louis suddenly turned into a pussy in the game; it was unexpected that he was warned by the referee because he was too capable of pussy; it was unexpected that he was dissatisfied with the referee because he was too capable of pussy; it was unexpected that he was so excited by the referee's use of inappropriate language that he was furious and directly blasted the referee and made the matter in the media, which was even more unexpected that Fitch did not expect.

What Fitch couldn't imagine is that this young bastard who caused a big mess was in the mood to pay attention to the game.

"What do you want to do?" Fitch asked.

Louis was not sure whether his method was feasible, nor did he know whether Fitch would like to act according to his plan.

"Adjusting the starting lineup, we have two or three players in the entire set of starting lineups, which is not conducive to our improvement of the quality of defense." Louis's suggestion only ends.

Fitch should know better than him who can defend and who can't.

Louis said that two or three Celtics' starting players have poor defense, which is a relatively modest statement.

Let’s start with the best defense. Bird, who has excellent defensive command, awareness and skills, but does not have a good body. Unfortunately, he was also arranged by Fitch in the third position to face Dr. J, who is extremely athletic.

This picture is so beautiful, that is, the doctor's ability to hold the ball is not very good. If you change your skills, Louis doesn't know what Bird will be exploded to end.

The second is Coins, who was selected as the second defense.

Facing the 76ers, Coins' defensive value is not as good as Bird, even if he was selected as the second defense.

Because the inside of the 76ers are all birds who can jump well in the buckles, his height is too disadvantageous, and people will not play ground battles with him.

Maxwell has never been a good defender. John Long's defense is still okay. He has done his best to protect himself and doesn't care about the others. Then there is the exclusive toilet specified by the 76ers' defenders Archibald.

Under his defense, "L Train" Hollins and Mike Bibby's father Henry Bibby PG both scored more than 60% of the shooting percentage.

If you really want to improve the quality of your defense, you will have to remove at least two original starters.

Louis knew very well that Fitch would never easily dismantle the starting lineup he had worked with for the whole season.

The Celtic locker room was calm, but the allegations against Jack Maden, made by Louis, caused an uproar.

Asians have always been the honestest and most dedicated immigrants of all ethnic groups in the United States, and are also the lowest social status. They are bullied and swallow their anger. Why did this happen suddenly?

Then everyone checked Louis's origin in detail and found that he was not a native Asian, but a "British man" with British citizenship. Everyone realized that this guy was not an indigenous person, no wonder he was so irritable.

Madden denied his racist attack on Louis and instead accused Louis of vicious personal attacks on him.

But Louis quickly pulled out his teammate Bill Ranbill, John Long, who was 18,000 miles away from the conflict, and "Larry Bird, who wanted to vent his anger for him and lost the game" to prove ⑵, that Maden did say "Oriental".

This incident was a big deal, with Louis having a certificate, while Madden having no certificate.

If it were 40 years later, Madden would definitely be severely punished, but Larry O'Brien, then president of the league, was a person who regarded stability as everything, and just prohibited Madden from continuing to call out the series, without any other follow-up punishment.

Although it was turned into a big deal, Louis's reputation spread for the first time.

The scene of him and the referee squirting was captured by many reporters.

Especially as an assistant coach, he did not enter the court in a suit like others, but instead had a short-sleeved shirt and cropped jeans like a choreographer, which really added some playful atmosphere to this serious, funny and dramatic scene.

"Always go against the referee - from Reed, to Tommy, to Louis, this is the inheritance of the glory of the Celtics!"

Louis was in the limelight and alarmed Auerbach.

Auerbach first learned about the situation from K.C, and then called Louis to his office the next day afterwards for questioning.

Louis pulled out a bottle of Coke from Auerbach's office refrigerator.

One of the happiest things after traveling through time is that the current Coke and the future Coke are no different in taste.

"You can really make trouble!" Auerbach smashed Louis's headline newspaper onto the table, "Look at what you did!"

Louis read the newspaper and said dissatisfiedly: "I'm ugly."

"Is this something you should care about?" Auerbach angrily, "Do you the fuck know what you're doing?"

Louis said with a shameless face: "It's obvious that I'm trying to show off. Even Bob Ryan (a reporter from the Global Times) can see it. Can't you see it?"

"FUCK!" Auerbach really didn't expect the kid to admit it in person.

Auerbach pressed the newspaper with his hands: "Why did you do that?"

"I have my reasons, and, Jack Maden did hurt me with 'that sentence', do you think I could just laugh it off?"

Auerbach could not have thought that this kid could admit that he was stealing the limelight so righteously, nor did he think that he had no repentance...

"You will disrupt our entire game plan like this!" Auerbach reminded him, "Don't forget who made the game plan!"

Louis said helplessly: "It is precisely because I am dispensable on the court that I offend the referee fearlessly."

Auerbach heard other meanings from Louis's words.

"What do you want to say?"

"Bill, like many successful coaches, has a strong sense of self-esteem. It is difficult for him to find a balance between self-self and advice, not to mention that I am just a little devil." Louis said it was very obscure, and he had already told Fitch the direction of the next improvement.

Accepting or not accepting is Fitch's business, and he needs to let Auerbach know that he did it.

When Auerbach heard his words, he snorted disdainfully: "Course who has never won the championship dares to say it is successful?"

Louis felt that he was suspected of being sowed, but it was not a secret that Fitch and Auerbach had a disagreement.

"If only the champion can be considered successful, the conditions are too harsh." Louis asked, "Have you ever heard of the Ridgefield miracle?"

Auerbach was even more disdainful.

"I've heard," Auerbach said deliberately, "that team was eliminated by us."

"Isn't it because the Cavaliers' best player is reimbursed, otherwise it's not certain who will win or lose."

"The champion never makes excuses." Auerbach sarcastically said, "The only excuses left for the loser."

"Okay!"

Louis didn't have time to talk nonsense with this old guy, "This is the game plan I made for the first game. The original has been handed over to Bill. This is a copy. You can check it out and pay attention to our second game by the way."

"Go away!"

Louis walked away with two bottles of Coke before leaving.

"Finish the refrigerator for me, boy!" Auerbach shouted.

⑴ According to the information I found, before the Sino-British Joint Statement in 1984, Hong Kong people were free to choose their passports of Chinese nationality and British territorial (colonial) citizens (enjoying civil rights but strictly speaking not as citizens). According to the answers of some Hong Kong people on Zhihu, basically most people will choose their territorial citizenship. I am not right here, so I gave Louis a more reasonable arrangement.

⑵ This is a plot that has not been written. In order to increase his witness, Louis, in order to increase his witness, he took Bird's moral kidnapping Bird with the fact that Bird said he wanted to win the game for him. Although he did not write it out, I will notify this paragraph here that it still exists in the text.
