Chapter 275 The red-headed palace scheming*
That night, Weisha and Phil Jackson took leave. He did not go back to the hotel and wanted to go back to his grandfather's house to sleep.
In the past, Jackson would refuse.
Today, Jackson seemed to be in a good mood, or wanted to maintain his usual mysterious feeling, which made people unable to see his thoughts clearly, so he actually agreed.
Wei Xia really doesn't understand why he has repeatedly had inconsistent situations.
But since Jackson has made all his mercy, he'd better close his mouth and go home with peace of mind.
When Wayne heard that he was going to spend the night at home, he happily bought a bunch of Chinese food he liked and was the only Chinese food he could buy at that time.
Grandma Jaina helped Wei Xia set up an empty room.
Wei Xia originally wanted to go to bed early, but Wayne pulled him to talk about the game. During this period, the one he said the most was: "From today, if the Celtics don't get Ricky Davis away for a day, I won't watch their game for a day!"
If Weisha hadn't played with the Celtics and hadn't played against Davis, he would have smiled.
After fighting with the Celtics, he listened to his grandfather's words and completely agreed with his grandfather's thoughts.
"He is indeed not worth your life to watch the game on site." Wei Xia was worried that his grandfather would come to watch the game on site again, either being killed by the noise or being angry with Davis.
"Who said no? If it was Larry Bird's game, I would go and watch it even if I die!" As he said that, the old man began to recall the past.
From 1956 to 1986, the Celtics' championship interval will not exceed five years at most. Some teams can only play twice in 30 years, while some teams will get numb after winning the championship within 30 years.
The glory of three generations is exchanged for the darkness of today.
Wei Xia listened to her grandfather’s past stories while eating. He kept talking about the 1970s and 1980s, as if he was worried that Wei Xia would not understand the story of the 1960s. In fact, that was the passage that Wei Xia was most interested in.
Maybe his grandfather was on the scene when he played for Haflicek.
It took about an hour before Wei Xia went back to her room to sleep.
He found that his grandmother had placed him a room where his father lived before, and there was also a large poster of Larry Bird.
There are also posters for the Pistons, but Isaiah Thomas and Dennis Rodman's heads were painted off with colored pens.
He fell asleep at the posters with vintage.
I originally wanted to compare the similarities and differences between Heinthorne during the player's time and Heinthorne during the commentator's time in the old days, but I didn't expect that it would be a bad night.
In the away game against the Philadelphia 76ers' predecessor, the Celtics lost 106-126.
The reason is still very simple. Russell made five fouls abnormally in the first half.
Graduated not long after the third quarter started, and the National Team scored 8 players in double digits. Yes, the 8 players scored digits. The most scored 18 points. They defeated the Celtics in the best way.
Auerbach walked into the locker room, looked left and right, and wanted to find someone to be a target.
However, his special sandbag, Heinthorne, missed this game, and the other bastards with thick skin were all good. Even k.c. Jones, whose average career shooting rate was less than 40%, had a touching 50% shooting rate. The reason for losing was that Sam Jones, Bob Cousey, Russell and others performed too badly.
They are all people who can't be criticized.
"That's it. You know how you fight, I have nothing to say." Auerbach didn't scold anyone.
Suddenly, beside Wei Xia, Frank Ramsey picked up his sneakers and smashed them hard at the opposite wall.
He roared in a voice that Wei Xia had never heard before: "You guys joke about my money again!"
He growled loudly: "I came from Kentucky to win and make some money! If this kind of shit happens again, I promise you can't finish it!"
In this way, no one said anything more, whether it was the leader Cousey, the soul character Russell, or Sam Jones, who believed that he was the best in the world, no one refuted it, and their silence showed their attitude.
This situation has happened in the locker room, but this is the most tense situation Wei Xia has ever seen.
Ramsey didn't ignite the locker room, he just did what Auerbach didn't do.
Let teammates remember the lessons and not take the examples.
Ramsey walked out of the locker room angrily, and his teammates who were not afraid to act looked at each other.
Heinthorne, who missed the battle due to physical discomfort, joked: "He shouldn't have gone home to find his wife to practice boxing and vent his anger?"
The teammates who understood what Heinthorne did laughed.
This is Heinthorne's magic, who has the talent to make all tension disappear.
Ramsey's domestic abuse of his wife came from the 1960-61 season, which was after the game against his arch-rival Knicks. The Celtics lost, and Ramsey missed the key goal. He had no excuses. When asked about his mood by the Boston Globe, he openly stated that he would go home and beat his wife and vent his anger.
Boxers, stop! People are irrational when they are angry. Moreover, Ramsey's wife is not easy to mess with.
But how could Wei Xia understand this?
He asked stupidly, "Do I want to comfort him?"
"Rookie, do you want to try the doubles you want to be played by their couple? Go, I support you mentally!" Jim Loscottoff (jim
Weisha gave up the idea of comforting Ramsey, and for him, it was another good day to understand the character of the champion.
The Celtics' team winner culture in the 1960s has its own background, but if the people who are not the most correct group of people are together, they will not be able to achieve hegemony even if they have the right time and place.
Wei Xia was about to learn more about Ramsey, but found that all his teammates were gone.
He had no choice but to go home.
It was already late at night. According to Wei Xia's experience, his consciousness could leave his original body at any time and go to the pure black world.
Sure enough, on the way home, he felt the call, and his consciousness suddenly broke away from Havlicek's body, flew into the night sky, penetrated the old time, and came to another world.
So he played two more games here, one win and one lose.
At 6:40 am the next morning, Wei Xia woke up and found that her grandmother had prepared breakfast. He learned from her grandmother that she was afraid of delaying her flight time, so she got up at less than 6:00. Moreover, she knew that some of the athletes were banned, but she didn't understand, so she called Wayne. Wayne was forced to tell her what he understood about the athlete's diet: "Just don't give Philip red meat!"
So, Jaina prepared chicken breast, whole wheat bread, and ice water.
Just replace ice water with whole milk to make a perfect breakfast.
But considering that this is an old lady who has no interest in sports, she has done her best to do this.
"Your grandma has never been so attentive to me!"
Seeing Wei Xia wake up and eat ready-made food, Wayne's words were jealous.
"Why would I give you half?" Wei Xia asked.
"Forget it, can I still compete with you young people for food?" The old man's thoughts are the most difficult to understand. They always have their own reasons, and young people can only bear it.
Wei Xia was having breakfast and asked Frank Ramsey on his own initiative.
"Why did you suddenly ask him?" Wayne asked in surprise.
His reaction was the same as when he heard Weisha say he was a reporter for fans of Heinthorne yesterday.
"Learn it casually, do you still remember him?" Wei Xia asked.
"Of course!" When talking about the story of the old Celtics, Wayne was excited.
Wei Xia thought he would talk about Ramsey's famous scenes, but she didn't expect that in order to show his knowledge, the old man started before the Ramsey draft.
I thought he was talking about Ramsey, but I didn't expect it to be another speech that deepened Wei Xia's admiration for the Cardinal.
Let’s talk about 1952 - wow, 54 years from Wei Xia’s era - at that time, every winter, the league held collective meetings, with league executives and head coaches from each team participating, discussing what else the league needs to change. The great 24-second offensive rule was derived in this situation. At that time, the NBA stipulated that the team could not select players whose college studies had not yet been completed. Auerbach, who had a heart, made a unique suggestion: “Why can’t we learn from NFL, and modify the regulations to allow the selection of players who have been four years after graduating from high school? NFL is the most successful sports league in the United States. There will never be any mistakes in learning from successful people!”
Since no one found the potential harm of this rule at the scene, the amendment proposal was quickly approved by multiple votes.
Moreover, according to Auerbach's later description, every time he had any ideas, he would patiently wait until the end of the meeting to come up with it. Because each meeting would take several hours, and by the end, everyone was tired and unwilling to discuss, and all they wanted was to leave the meeting as soon as possible for dinner.
At that time, I made a relaxed look and made a suggestion that sounds harmless. Usually there would be no resistance or discussion. Everyone would pass the proposal and continue the meeting. Unfortunately for other teams at that time, Auerbach's suggestion was passed and changed the course of history several times1.
1 In the 1978 draft, Green Kai used this rule to steal Bird.
"It's worthy of being a red head, so insidious!" Wei Xia clapped her hands when she heard this.
"Are your grandfather talking about a fantasy story?" Jaina could never understand Wayne, and she didn't know how valuable the stories in Wayne's mind were to someone who wanted to understand that era.
"For God's sake!" Wayne shouted to his wife, "Have my breakfast not come yet? Are you willing to starve to death?"
"I'm sure you won't see God until you finish telling the story." Jaina gave her husband a blank look.
Chapter completed!
