Chapter 184: Strong medicine

Andy Miller doubted whether there was a problem with his ears, and whether it was Fox Leon sitting across from him, or whether this was someone Leon’s enemy, and deliberately wore a peaked cap to pretend to be him. Himself, and then continue to frame Leon. , Access to the latest chapter: ШШШ.79xs.СоМ. Please search to see the most complete! The fastest novel
After repeated confirmation twice, Miller finally understood that Leon wanted to continue to use the power of the media to attack him, and even attack the ‘Boston Celtics’. Miller was naturally confused about this, but Leon had no intention to explain to him at all, and Miller was embarrassed to ask, after all, the two were still in a hostile relationship.
After asking a question and making a request, Leon decided to leave. He didn't mention Garnett from the beginning to the end. This made Miller very uncomfortable. Miller couldn't help but say goodbye. Asked: "I heard that you want Garnett to go to the Celtics, I think it's a bit difficult."
Leon looked at Miller, raised his hat a little, and said, "If you are not his agent, don't you need to worry about this problem?" After speaking, Leon left the private room, leaving only Miller to stay. Sitting on the stool blankly, his heart was both angry and frightened, with a trace of fear, and he didn't know what the controversial figure was thinking.
After leaving the café, Leon took another trip to Times Square, where he met Woj, and passed a similar message to him, asking him to hack himself in the news media reports in the future. Of course, woj is also very surprised. There has been enough negative news about Leon recently. This guy asked him not to do crisis public relations, but to "fuck" him. woj didn’t know exactly what Leon was thinking. What are you thinking about?
But Leon still didn't explain, just chatted with Woj about the recent situation, and talked about the status of the alliance. Now the Eastern Conference has completely entered a ‘meandering’ battle, with the Nets, Pacers, Pistons and Celtics competing for hegemony in the Four Finals, and everyone is likely to be ranked first in the Eastern Conference. But no matter who is ranked No. 1 in the East, it is not enough to face the power of the West.
The Los Angeles Lakers, the three-game winning streak, have experienced weakness and degradation this season, the team has been suffering from constant injuries, and the regular season record has also been declining. However, no one dares to underestimate this giant. After all, in 2001, they won 56 in the regular season. Swept all the way to the finals, known as the strongest playoff team in history.
On the other hand, Tim Duncan and his Spurs, who have been in trouble for many years, have ushered in another peak. The growth of young players and Duncan's peak have made them invincible in the regular season. Other strong teams such as the Mavericks and Kings are still strong, and the overall strength of the West is a whole level higher than the East.
The two chatted from the afternoon to the evening. From Woj, Leon also learned a lot about the current Celtic situation and external comments.
"A lot of people now propose to let Dave Cowens directly replace you as the head coach of the Celtics. To be honest, he did a good job this month. It feels that the Celtics have a more balanced offense and defense. And you This kid is running around "roughly" without proper business. Are you really not afraid that Danny Angie will let Cowens replace you directly? You have to know that in the NBA, especially in the Celtics, you have a basic foundation. No." Woj said to Leon earnestly, as a friend he still cares about Leon very much.
Leon smiled and didn't seem to care very much. The one-month suspension and vacation made his temperament look a lot more relaxed, even the scars on his face were not so heavy. He responded: "I was worried about this issue before today, even a month ago I was very worried, but after today, I am not worried at all."
Khomeinis' father had talked to Leon before and talked about why Cowens came to the Celtics as an assistant coach, not because of Auerbach, but because of Danny Angie. So afterwards Leon was extremely suspicious that Angie's condition for recruiting Cowens was to promise him that after Leon would leave class, Cowens would replace him as the head coach. During the suspension, Angie’s personnel appointments and the decision to ask Leon to take a vacation seem to confirm this, so Leon’s worries are also reasonable.
"I don't understand... well, don't worry if you don't worry, I'll worry about it for you. There is one more game where your suspension will be lifted, 15 games... it's really long, you're the only one. I haven’t been in the team for a long time, do you feel unfamiliar? Have you looked at the schedule to know who the next opponent is?" Woj’s question of continual fire came out. These are both the concern of friends and reporters. Interview.
"Of course I am not used to it. The vacation days are really'very' comfortable. I learned a lot and I hope I can use it when I go back. As for the schedule, I haven't looked at the Celtics much recently. People’s game video, but every day I talk to the players on the phone, and it seems that they are in good condition.
Leon had no intention of revealing to the woj about his daily phone calls with the players. The keen woj realized that Lai Although Ang is away on vacation, he has never let go of the Celtics.
This is like Auerbach. He often ran back to Washington, including match days, but as long as he was in'Boston, he was at the helm of the Celtics. At this time, Leon seemed to be walking leisurely and confident.
Woj wanted to invite Leon to have dinner, but Leon refused, because Khomeinis was still waiting for him in the hotel, and the two came to New York together. Leon came to solve his own problems, and Khomeinis was his military adviser.
When Leon returned to the Four Seasons Hotel room where he stayed, Khomeinis was sitting on the sofa gnawing on the McDonald’s
chicken
leg
. Although the Four Seasons Hotel had a
fine
and delicious dinner, she was on vacation. During the period, Khomeinis, who has eaten all kinds of food in the United States, wanted to eat an unhealthy McDonald's to satisfy his hunger.
"Eating less fried food is bad for your health... Miller and Woj have done it, I hope everything goes well, don't really make me stinky for a long time." Leon said while taking off his shirt and putting on pajamas. , And he picked up a burger and gnawed.
"Has the problem of'Por' Poor been solved? This is very important." Khomeini asked with a lick of her fingers after eating her'chicken' and'legs'.
"Oh, it's solved, as you and I think, even though'Bo' Pool knew Miller, it was also because of Miller's reason to'exchange' rumors to Joe, but he didn't take Miller's benefits, on the contrary He took the initiative to ask Miller to help him." Leon said with a burger filled his mouth.
"Hmm, what does that mean?"
"That means that it is not Miller who really instigated this leak behind the scenes, he is just a blindfold, and there is only one real messenger-Reed Auerbach..." Leon looked at Khomeinis , Finally said the final answer in his heart, and this was also what Khomeinis guessed when she asked Leon before.
As early as a month ago, after Leon saw Auerbach return to'Boston, Khomeinis told him when she saw Leon, she asked her father Paliuka how he knew that Cowens was Angie recruited instead of Auerbach, and Paljuka said that Poor told him inadvertently.
This aroused Leon's suspicion, how could the guy "Pop" spread information everywhere so much. Judging from his previous qualifications, he is not such a talkative person. Afterwards, Leon also used some methods to investigate the ‘private’ account of ‘Po’ Poole, and found that it was quite clean and received no benefits at all.
In this way, ‘Bo’ Pool’s motive for revealing ‘transaction’ information is quite suspicious, and Leon suspects that Angie may have tricked him out of it, playing a mission-impossible trick to ‘make’ himself. Later, with the help of Palliuca’s relationship, Khomeinis investigated the work experience of "Po" and found out that "Po" had a close relationship with the Celtic management as early as the 70s. He was. Bo'ston is a well-known coach in amateur basketball. He has appeared in various basketball activities organized by the Celtics during the off-season. The most frequent one is the junior basketball training camp set up by Auerbach in Marshfield. , He has served as a training camp coach for many years.
He was also recommended by Auerbach when he joined the Celtics as a scout. It can be seen from the beginning to the end that'Bo' Poole is from Auerbach, and'Bo' Poole is the most likely to do these things. The messenger can only be Auerbach.
But what makes Leon most puzzled is, if it was Auerbach, why would he do this? If Auerbach is to test himself, then the price of this test is too great, and the test process is too complicated. Besides, Auerbach has personally ‘handed over’ the authority to himself, so why is he still doing such a thing?
Leon, who had just realized this problem, was quite frustrated, so when Angie unexpectedly asked Leon to take a vacation and not come to work, he agreed without hesitation. There was also a frustration factor.
What really made Leon want to understand this question was when he was with Dennis Rodman in Las Vegas. In the past, when Rodman played with the Celtics, the relationship between the two was good, but more It was at the gambling table, and there were very few heart-to-heart chats between the two'in private'. This time, Rodman saw Leon being hit, and he talked a lot about his Pistons experience to encourage Leon.
Among them, Rodman repeatedly mentioned how Isiah Thomas caused criticism for his improper remarks before and after the game, and even directly caused the entire Pistons to be on the cusp of public opinion, and then how they responded on the court .
This suddenly inspired Leon. After leaving Las Vegas, Leon went to Los Angeles, Detroit, Cleveland and New York respectively, and went to the local municipal library to read sports journals and newspapers from the mid- to late 1980s, relying on him. Amazing memory and reading speed to find news related to Thomas and the Pistons, especially negative news.
From 1983 to 1988, the Pistons spent five years growing from a fish belly to a champion. The growth of the Pistons was not praise, but constant scolding. Leon quickly found some unusual places in these curses~EbookFREE.me~ He found that Thomas was clearly a sane and clever guy, but he always said something right in some important speeches. The team's unfavorable words have caused criticism. The most famous of these is the racially discriminatory remarks of "If Bird is not white, but ordinary people", this has plunged the Pistons and him into a storm of public opinion.
In the end, he apologized, was humiliated, and despised, but next year they eliminated the Celtics and entered the finals, and the next year they won the championship. Because under Thomas’ continuous efforts, he has always used the power of the media to "maintain" and even "foster" the image of the Pistons' bad boys, so that such a wave of public opinion ended up just letting the Pistons sail, instead of making them drool. ocean.
This made Leon vaguely feel that Auerbach played such a big game, not just to test himself, he was using external forces to temper himself and the entire team. Such behavior is naturally a slant forward, and there is a huge risk, a little carelessness, or some unexpected circumstances, the unity and friendship of the entire team may be ruined.
But Leon knew that Auerbach couldn't wait. The old man of Time would not leave him too much time. He could only administer ‘medicine’ to his little white mouse.
