The Rest, Only Noise

On media day, the entire Knicks wore their new away jerseys.

The Knicks' away jersey has always been orange and blue.

In the 1980s, the marketing department made the color scheme lighter, and today the classic light blue away jersey is back in New York.

Because the Knicks in the Louis era, not only surpassed the Knicks in the early 1970s, but also continued to create brilliance.

One of the most-asked questions for Louie here isn't about the Knicks.

It's about whether he wants to be the head coach of the Dream Team.

At present, in addition to the players who have been confirmed to join the Dream Team, the candidates for the head coach have not yet been determined. .

Louie is the loudest voice, but he is also the only one who has not publicly expressed his willingness to coach the dream team among the coaches qualified to coach the dream team.

Dave Anderson is the guest of honor at Knicks Media Day every year.

As the number one writer for The New York Times, he formed a deep friendship with the Knicks during the 1985-86 season.

At this point, he asked Louie about coaching the Dream Team.

"Are you having trouble with this matter?"

"The concept of the dream team was proposed by me. This is the team that all coaches dream of. How could I have difficulty?" Louis asked with a smile.

Anderson then said: "If there is no difficulty, why not send out the job application? The entire New York State, no, the entire Midwest fans will support you."

Louie is doing things more and more cautiously now.

His identity is different from before. As a godfather of a generation, he has to be more reserved.

Even if you want to coach the dream team, you have to take a "this matter is like a cloud with me" attitude.

"I won't say I don't want to coach the Dream Team, but I certainly won't send out job applications. Anyone who stands in my position should pay attention to the impact. I'm successful enough in the league." Lewis paused. In the NCAA, there are no more than one person who is more qualified to be the head coach of the Dream Team than me. As far as I know, these people did not take the initiative to apply to the American Basketball Association. In that case, why should I do this? Do? The coach who can coach the dream team should be the best coach. Since USA Basketball requires their consent to invite players, then it should be the same when it comes to the head coach. Who they want to be the head coach , to whom an official invitation will be issued."

"Can I understand that, Coach Lu." Anderson asked with a smile, "Are you waiting for the USA Basketball Association to send you an invitation?"

Louie nods approvingly, otherwise Dave Anderson is the only writer with a brain at the Times?

"It's not just me." Louie emphasized, "All the head coaches who have the ability to coach the dream team are waiting for the invitation of the American Basketball Association."

At the same time, Ewing and Wilson heard similar questions.

The reporter wants to know if they have not joined the Dream Team so far, and are they waiting for the USA Basketball Association to announce the candidate for the head coach.

Wilson, as before, left no room: "I can tell you for sure, yes. If Coach Lu hadn't been elected, I would never have joined the Dream Team."

"Can you tell us why? America has a lot of good head coaches."

"It's simple," Wilson said confidently. "The best players only play for the best coaches."

Wilson's obsession with Louie is odd, but it's not the first day he's said it.

Ewing's answer was ambiguous, and at this time, his emotional intelligence was on the rise.

"I'm really waiting for the results, and when the results come out, I'll make the final decision," Ewing said.

On the other hand, the Knicks have several players who think they have what it takes to play on the dream team.

Miller, for example, thinks that the distance from the three-point line in FIBA ​​games is not difficult.

"I'm better than Chris Mullin in terms of three points," Miller said arrogantly. "Why don't you draft me?"

Rodman also said: "I'm the Defensive Player of the Year. I know many people don't value defense, but what makes the Knicks special is our defense. I also plan to be the league's rebounding champion in the new season. Yeah, I'm going to be the rebounding champion in a league with Ralph, Akim, David Robinson."

Chris Jackson has suppressed the smell of gunpowder within the Knicks, but the inflated arrogance has spread from the star to the rest.

Sean Camp is the most understated one.

He took Willis Reed's teachings to do more and say less.

He was the Most Improved Player of the Year last year and was just one point short of the Sixth Man of the Year.

This year, his goal is to be the sixth man of the year.

He also said the same to the media.

At the end of the media day, the entire Knicks team gathered for a group photo.

It was the person in this photo that convinced the media that even if the Blazers swapped Drexler for Barkley, it wouldn't be a threat to them.

Ewing, Stockton, Alex Stevens, Kevin McHale, Benjamin Wilson, John Salley, Rodman, Reggie Miller, Brad Rohos, Danny Ainge, Sean Camp, Reggie Williams, Jack Hickma, Chris Jackson, Vernon Maxwell.

Louis is in the middle, Tomjanovich and Zhao Yuanzheng are separated.

This photo became the cover of the first issue of Sports Illustrated in early October.

The caption above reads "Boston, Los Angeles, Portland, who's next?"

On day 20 of training camp, Jackson had adapted to Kaminsky's strength training.

On this day, Louis suddenly brought a novel way of training.

"Coach Lu is training CJ?"

McHale asked in surprise.

Jack Hickma looked at him inexplicably: "Why do you all seem surprised?"

Gu Yan"The Knicks' normal training is like this, Rudy teaches defense on the side, Lao Mo points the offense in the corner, Coach Zhao will tell us what's not doing well, Jeff Van Gundy is the most annoying , and Coach Lu...he's always not there. He might be in the office watching R-rated movies, or chatting in anyone's office, but he doesn't supervise our training, much less personally train any of us Alone." McHale seemed to know Louie well, "His basketball skills are known to be amateurish."

"Aren't you too busy?"

When other people speak ill of Louis, his ears are always very bright.

"Kevin, do you want to try Pat Riley's original 17 Deaths?"

"Coach Lu, I didn't say anything bad about you, they said it, and I even scolded them for you!"

Hearing that Louis wanted them to die 17 times, the crowd was silent.

The 17 deaths were researched by Riley in order to help Barkley burn fat.

The content of 17 times, it is very simple to say, is five groups of 17 consecutive sprints from the left line to the right line. If you do it, you will die.

Because Riley doesn't allow players to run slowly, he requires players to finish the run within the specified time or start all over again.

"I've never done anything so hard," Jordan said at a media conference after his run.

If this kind of punishment falls on McHale, his body, which has not eaten meat for many years, is estimated to be in shock before he finishes running.

"Okay, focus your attention."

"Let's start here."

Jackson asked suspiciously, "How to start?"

"Look at me and do the crotch dribble back and forth."

"Then dribble with one hand."

Jackson dribbles with his right hand.

Louis immediately took out a tennis ball from his pocket, "Catch it."

After all, he threw the tennis ball to Jackson. Who knows, all his attention is on the tennis ball, and his right hand in possession has lost control of the ball.

"Look, that's one of your problems in the game."

Louie whistled and Kemp immediately picked up the ball.

"You're always overly concerned with one thing and then ignoring another. Come again."

Louie took the tennis ball from Jackson's hand. "You keep dribbling, and I'll suddenly throw the tennis ball at you. You have to catch it while you control the ball."

This time, Jackson, who was prepared, caught the tennis ball.

"Then, do the crotch dribble from now on."

"No, sir, I can't do it with it."

Jackson said embarrassingly.

"So, you have to use your brain, how do you do a crotch dribble in this situation?"

About half a minute later, Jackson smashed the tennis ball to the ground, then instantly made a crotch dribble, and grabbed the rebounded tennis ball with his other hand.

"Yes, that's it, go on."

"Watch out, don't drive the ball under your hips, don't drive the ball behind your ass, keep the ball under your knees, what do you feel?"

Jackson looked at Louie nervously.

"The line of movement of the ball seems to be more comfortable than usual."

"I feel like I can pick up the ball anytime."

"Yeah, good dribbling and hook-and-shoot can also improve your shooting percentage."

After about half a minute, Jackson made a mistake.

He panted, feeling fresh with the way Louie was training.

"It's the same as the game," Louie said. "In a game, if you're going to dribble to the left and then suddenly stop to the right to collect the ball, if the other side of your body isn't fully centered, your shot You will not be able to maintain stability. This training looks like you are practicing dribbling, but in fact, it is training your hand-eye synchronization and body coordination. You can only throw good shots stably by maintaining a good center of gravity and a comfortable balance. ."

Jackson enshrined the teachings of Louis as his bible.

Today's training method is something he has never seen before. Although it has not been tested by actual combat~www.readwn.com~, his intuition tells him that Louis will not be wrong.

Before, everyone was watching and watching the fun, but now seeing Jackson training like that, everyone's curiosity has been mobilized.

Wilson went straight to equipment manager David Turner for tennis.

"We are a basketball club, what tennis do you want..."

Turner whimpered, giving what should be given.

After that, all the guards went to Turner for tennis.

When Ewing tried to get a tennis ball, Louie yelled at him: "This kind of training is not for you, don't waste tennis!"

"How do you know if you don't try."

the orangutan insisted.

"Try your size, when did your father dribble the ball like this in a game? If you have this skill, you might as well go to the gym and put on a few more pounds of iron!"
