The Rest, Only Noise

There is only half a glass of water in the glass.

This evaluation is not too much for two 29-year-old superstars.

How many players have gotten better after 30? Currently, no such player exists.

Every player in history starts to decline after the age of 30, it's just a matter of speed.

"They didn't win under others, maybe under you."

The last thing West wants to do is trade Robinson and Pippen.

In his eyes, these two are the main pieces of the championship team.

But they are not the core of a title contender.

Louie didn't force West to act in a situation he hadn't tried. He could see that West was a very emotional person.

Robinson and Pippen are his favorites.

West's feeling for those two people was probably the same feeling that Ewing and Wilson gave him.

However, Louie is very sure that Ewing and Wilson are essential players in the title race to take them seriously. West is not the case. Pippen is his representative draft after serving as the general manager of the Lakers. Stealing Robinson from the Holy City is a god-level operation.

Although there are rumors that there is a shadow of Louis behind these two transactions, but now who can be sure?

"Okay, Jerry, don't talk about it, it's not easy for you." Louie wanted West to change his mood, "Seriously, you've done a very good job these years, it's hard to pick out faults, and the Lakers also Has been a model franchise across the league."

West then showed Louie the side of him that didn't like false compliments.

"If that's true, maybe we should win a few more championships."

When West said this, Louie seemed to be able to see those losing sights in his eyes.

He was sure West remembered every night of miserable failure.

"Jerry, you should let it go."

"lay down?"

West may have forgotten his mission today.

Convincing Louie to join the Lakers or something is irrelevant.

What's important? Louie was a great coach, a great administrator, a great mentor, and someone to talk to no matter how old he was.

"In the '60s, we lost to the Celtics six times, six times!" West stared, as if it wasn't Louie standing in front of him, but the guy who had to light a cigar before every game. Reed Fuck Auerbach.

"If we lost to six different teams, maybe the pain would be a lot less, but losing to the same team over and over again? I think it's because we're so incompetent, like when we were kids in school, there were always There was a kid who laughed at you for being too fat, too thin, too short, too ugly, but anyway, it was a one-on-one humiliation of me personally, and the game was five-on-five, and I had no excuses."

Will defeats on the pitch cast a shadow?

Louis believes that West is not only shadowed, but also has a psychotic trauma. Those wounds were rooted deep in his mind, who could really understand him? There may be no such person at all. Because the tragic man is an optimist, Chamberlain never regards victory as the only thing in his life, and Baylor is a person who can laugh at a fiasco.

And West is not.

Louis finally knew what Baylor's comment on West meant, the true meaning of the so-called "never happy".

West's words made him seem like a victim, and no one would really sympathize with him considering his current status. But he wakes up every day still surrounded by shadows, making him uneasy, feeling like he's not doing well enough, if he meets the Celtics again, and hits Game 7, the ghosts of Boston, the elf in the garden will still come out trip them up.

"Jerry, maybe you should try to reconcile with your past self."

Louie thought of Baylor inexplicably.

He also lost the Celtics six times in the finals, and experienced those blood and tears. Why does he look so different?

Baylor was the biggest loser of the era, and West won at least one ring as a player.

But why does West seem so much sadder than Baylor?

West sneered, not at Louis.

"I often have the idea of ​​ending myself, but the curiosity about the game and the sense of responsibility to my family keep me going." West said, "Those experiences are just a part of my life, a small part."

It sounded a bit Baylor's point, but Louie couldn't believe that someone who had just nearly collapsed would suddenly figure it out.

He said that these are only a small part, does it mean that there is still a large part in his heart?

This time Zhang Si. So what is the big part about?

Did it make West unhappy too?

Or are the things that really made the 56-year-old never happy because of the things he never said?

"Jerry, you almost made me think you never won a championship as a player." Louie wanted the negative old guy to think of something positive. "At least you won, but Elgin never had that chance."

West was sneering again.

Louis believed that his sneer was not malicious.

Not like a **** like Bird.

Seeing Bird sneer people just want to punch him, and West won't.

His sneer was more like a mockery of himself.

"For me, the 1972 championship was ruined by Elgin's absence."

When he first heard this sentence, Louis did not understand.

But then...

"Elgin retired after only nine games that season because Bill (Sharman) wanted him to come off the bench, but he was reluctant to accept it. He was someone who would leave when it was time to leave."

"Then we won the championship."

"What are you kidding?" West said in a deep voice, "He left the game early as my close teammate, good friend and person I cherished, and when we finally won the championship~www.readwn.com~ he was absent. I mean, **** Christ Almighty, what the **** is this? The guy who shared all the blood, tears and sweat with me, and in the end couldn't stand by my side and taste the victory with me, it's just too bad Fair enough."

Even Louie had forgotten that it was a negotiation between him and the Lakers.

He couldn't help asking, "Does Elgin know about this?"

Strong sacrifice read sacrifice. "I never told Elgin how I felt about this, it was one of my many shortcomings," West said.

Louie did open West's chatterbox.

But neither he nor West expected that their conversation would go to this point.

West never told anyone about these things.

Make a big tyrant. He had begun to feel that he had said too much, but he remembered the purpose of the day again, and he felt that it was not bad to let Louis know.

This is the curse that has gripped the Lakers since the 1960s.

1 I'm really thankful that in the first 1000 chapters of the novel there isn't much about West's character or character. After I read the logo man's autobiography painfully, my whole person was depressed. It was like staying in the comment area of ​​Netease Cloud for a month. This process was not pleasant. I have never read an autobiography that was so depressed. His autobiography also left me with the most marks, with too many surprising inside stories, but after I digested it, I hope I can present a unique Jerry West. Once again thankful that the first 1000 chapters didn't describe this legendary guy too much.
