The Whip of the God of Basketball

　　 Rodman had two major hobbies in his life, one is basketball and the other is women. But apart from that, Rodman has one thing he can't put down, and that is gambling.

　　During the Chicago Bulls period, whenever Rodman became impatient and started to take part in training, Phil Jackson asked Rodman's assistant to take him to Las Vegas for a game. Gamble happily, play with women happily, sleeplessly for two days and then go back to Chicago to sleep, then go back to the team and play well.

　　 Gambling is one of the most exciting things in the world. People who have not experienced the feeling of heaven and **** for one second cannot experience the beauty and despair. And Leon is sure that Rodman will report to the Celtics training hall on time, first of all because of a bet.

After persuading Rodman to return to Boston to play in Sydney in June, Leon didn’t really believe that Rodman would play obediently. This surly and capricious guy, from June to September three months, I don’t know what to do. What moths came out.

So after completing the task in Sydney, Leon did not leave directly. He and Rodman went to Star City to gamble for two days and three nights. Finally, the boss of Star City brought his bodyguards together and kindly asked Leon and Rodman left the field, and Leon was also blacklisted in Star City. In the future, Leon only needs to go to the casino in Star City, and the boss will entertain him with delicious food, but he will not let him go to gamble.

　　Because he is terrible in the casino, stud, blackjack, roulette, Leon almost all eats big and small, and Zhuangxian all kills. Fortunately, he will lose one if he wins five hands with mercy.

　　 Even so, the casino is too much to bear. In the end, many tourist gamblers have started to bet behind Leon. If you continue to play like this, let alone making money in the casino, you have to start posting your books.

However, on the night that he was bombed out by the casino, Leon became Rodman’s idol in gambling. Although Rodman was good at gambling, he was pure gambling. For him, gambling was just a vent. And thrilling, but gambling has become an art in Leon.

　　 After that, Rodman tried every possible way to learn the secrets of gambling from Leon, but Leon kept laughing, and finally Leon told Rodman that he wanted to learn his gambling skills and came to Boston to report in September.

After Leon went back to the United States first, Rodman also went to a friend's house in rural Oklahoma in August, during which Leon kept in touch with Rodman, and Leon gradually discovered that Rodman was vulgar but delicate. , Weird and fragile person. The content of their chats is not much, only two or three sentences each time, a few text messages, but they will say a few words every day, which is not easy for Rodman.

　　 In mid-September, Rodman called Leon and told him that he was training in Detroit and that he would definitely report to Boston at the end of September.

　　 Therefore, another reason Leon is sure is his trust in Rodman.

　　………………

Rodman never dreamed that he would come to Boston to play for the Celtics. When he just got news that the Mavericks wanted to sign with him and then change and then throw him to Boston, Rodman felt Even if he never touched a woman in his life, he would not go to Boston, not to mention that he didn't even want to stay with the Mavericks hometown team.

Rodman’s memories of Boston even go back to the 1980s. During the late Larry Bird’s rule of the East, he attacked the Celtics’ throne in the Detroit Pistons’ bad boys. It is a war once to Boston.

Now more than ten years have passed. Detroit’s rebounding kid has turned into a colorful bug, but in the end he has to play in the place of his former rival. For Rodman, who has joined the Bulls and won three consecutive championships. Say, maybe it's nothing.

But for Boston fans, it was different. From the very beginning, many fans resisted Rodman’s joining. Until Rodman’s plane arrived at Boston’s airport in the early hours of September 28, there was not even a fan to greet him. None of the media came to interview. A guy who appeared on the headlines of the league all year round, arrived at his destination alone and deserted.

　　 And the Boston Celtics didn’t even hold a signing conference for Rodman,

Rodman is a trustworthy person. Although he is very unreliable most of the time, he really wants to learn Leon’s gambling skills. He is even willing to exchange his bed secret skills with Leon, but Leon wants to When Rodman came to Boston, he was willing to teach him.

So, when Rodman showed up at the Boston Sports Club in Waltham at 10 a.m. on September 29, everyone stopped training and watched the guy with dyed green hair swaying to greet everyone. Everyone didn't know how to respond for a while.

　　 Only Leon stepped forward and gave Rodman a hug. After that, everything returned to normal. Training continued as usual. Rodman went to the locker room to change clothes and set foot on the training ground.

He started normal training like other players. This summer he was not completely deserted. Although he is almost 40 years old, he is in good physical condition. You must know that in the Mavericks' short dozen games, he can still Get 14 rebounds per game.

　　 But it seems that no one wants to talk to Rodman. After all, he has a reputation and is like a monster. Now he comes to a team that claims to be the most orthodox and traditional team in the league, and he looks a bit out of place. Pitino, who traded Rodman, didn't speak much to Rodman.

　　 By 4 pm, the first day of training was over. One day of observing Leon did not seem to have gained much. It was all ordinary training. Although very professional, Leon had already seen it.

　　 When I knew that Rodman was still staying in a Boston hotel, but Rodman refused. He said that he was very comfortable in the hotel and had a lot of fun every night. Then he left without even mentioning learning to gamble.

　　 Leon knew that Rodman was a little unhappy, and he was not respected during training.

　　……………………

After training and returning to downtown Boston, Leon went back to the office building. Unexpectedly, Reed Auerbach visited here in the afternoon. He rushed from Washington to Boston. He stayed in Michael Carr’s office. When he saw Leon coming, he said to Leon: "Boy, accompany me to dinner, I have something to tell you."

　　 When Auerbach wanted to eat with some people, his wishes could not be violated, so Leon had to call Khomeinis to tell her that he would not go to her house for dinner tonight.

　　 Auerbach chose a restaurant he often visited in Boston, the "legal seafood" restaurant in Quincy District, which is a non-smoking restaurant, but only Auerbach can smoke cigars there.

　　 At the dinner table, Leon and Auerbach talked about Rodman, how he persuaded Rodman to come to Boston, how he used gambling to contain Rodman, and how to trust this guy. Of course he also said that Rodman didn't seem to be too happy during today's training.

Auerbach snorted and said to Leon: "Of course he is not happy because you did not give him enough respect. Many people say how I would dislike Dennis. To be honest, I didn’t like him in the past. A trifling guy. But if he comes to our team and becomes a member of ours, then respect him and love him no matter what, otherwise, what is it that you get him here? Even a decent press conference No. This guy Pitino is like this, he is still the same in the university. He thinks that all players are his students and must obey the discipline. He had better be like a strict father. Everyone will naturally listen to him. Actually I knew it would be like this a long time ago. Look at the deals he made in the past, sign some players, trade them away after a period of time and feel that there is no improvement, and then change a wave~www.NovelMTL.com~ haven't practiced yet. They were traded again in two days. The NBA is a big market, and the trade is taken for granted, but the NBA also has human feelings. Many people think that Pitino has planted a mine for me, but in fact he planted a bomb for himself! I have and Carl said, there will be a press conference tomorrow, inviting all Boston media reporters to come, to sign Rodman to hold a ceremony. Leon, you must attend, remember to set the table early, you set the table and bench. "

It seems that Auerbach is here for Rodman’s business. He seems to have calculated that Rodman will be left out in Boston, even including Pitino, who signed him. This is Pitino. He often does some good trades and drafts, but he is extremely impatient. Three months have passed since he exchanged Rodman, maybe he regretted it again.

　　 Leon nodded, saying that he would do a good job of supporting the press conference. After all, now the Celtics are the only ones who can talk about it with Rodman.

Auerbach wiped his mouth, and then said: "This is only the first thing, there is one more thing, the summer league will begin in a while, O'Brien will be the head coach of the Celtics summer league, you Be an assistant coach with Vogel. Anyway, now that the work of scouts is idle, you will have a lot of opportunities to exercise. I can tell you that being a coach is much more interesting than being a scout." It's not more interesting." Leon almost choked Auerbach again. The bishop angrily knocked his fork on the table and shouted at Leon: "If you have the ability, you'd better be the boss!" Leon suddenly remembered. With Khomeinis, it seems that it is not impossible to think about it~www.NovelMTL.com~ Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all on ~www.NovelMTL.com~Mobile Users please go to read.
