Chapter 1581 Full Outbreak
After Tony Allen was reimbursed for the season, the Celtics officially became a de facto black-free team.
Louie gets a dream window.
But he is not so excited, because there are still a lot of troubles to solve, but he has made full preparations for this.
Initially, no one noticed that the Celtics became a de facto no-black team.
Before the All-Star weekend, the Celtics achieved a record of 39 wins and 9 losses, ranking first in the league.
After that, Lu Wuxia, Yao Yueban, and Gasol participated in this year's All-Star Weekend.
They were supposed to relax during the annual holiday, but they were surrounded by a group of reporters while participating in a public benefit event arranged by the league.
After inquiring, they found that these media were not the usual media that were keen to report sports, but some media that were biased towards editorials and serious political discussions.
This is strange, the world is in full swing, and the invincible lighthouse kingdom of God is needed to spread justice everywhere. It is not enough for them to pay attention to those backward areas that have not been enforced by justice. They actually care about NBA All-Stars?
Lu Wuxia, who grew up under the spotlight since she was a child, looked at them with a smile on her face, wondering what the other party's purpose was.
"Wish, have you been following 'Black Pride'?" asked one of the Washington-based Society 24 reporters.
Lu Wuxia doesn't care about "black pride".
Just as he doesn't care about "white pride," "yellow pride," or "green pride," this irrational, aggressive racism has never been his thing.
However, he also knows that any organization with "pride" on it must be an equal rights organization if it is related to skin color.
Therefore, Lu Wuxia nodded and said: "I know, they are a well-respected African-American affirmative action organization, and I respect all the efforts they have made for the African-American affirmative movement."
"Then have you read their latest article?"
"This...not yet."
"What do you think about the head writer Kendrick Patrick of 'Black Pride' writing an article where he accuses the Celtics of restoring the racism that has disappeared in the NBA?"
Although he didn't know what happened, even if Lu Wuxia didn't pay attention to politics and serious social issues, he knew that racism was the red line of American society.
So, he became extremely serious and serious, and expressed an attitude on behalf of his teammates: "I need more information about this matter, but I can guarantee that the Celtics have no soil for racism!"
Lu Wuxia took the lead, and Yao Yueban and Gasol could avoid the topic of death just by following his words.
But the problem is not solved.
Immediately after the event, Lu Wuxia checked a top-ranked article published on the official website of "Black Pride" "The Dirt of Old Glory Returns Today—How the Boston Celtics Resurrected Racism in the NBA".
This article starts with Boston's deep-rooted racist history - the article begins with the black riots that started in 1831 when Boston police and white militiamen attacked a group of black people in the Boston area, detailing the historically famous racism in the Celtic area event.Then, the author uses the spring and autumn style of writing to combine these events with the Celts very skillfully.
It can be said that this is a very instructive and biased article. The author knew that Bill Russell did not say goodbye because he hated the racism in Boston. Even the jersey retirement ceremony was held in an empty audience, but he "didn't know" Russell received the greatest respect within the Celtics, and also became the first black head coach in NBA history.
It can be said that this article is full of prejudice, but the content is so loopholed that any fan who knows the history of the Celtics can easily refute it.
But the problem is, no one cares about how many fans the Celtics have eaten. The fact is that they have no black players on the team. As a sport dominated by black players, as a sports league with a majority of black players, there has been a No black team, isn't that blatantly racist?
Louie called several players who were participating in the All-Star Weekend, told them how to answer the media's questions, and then held a team meeting to teach the same words to other players on the team.
One thing that many people don't understand is that when Louis held an internal meeting, he actually ignored the black players who were recovering from injuries.
Brandon Roy heard that there was a meeting in the team but did not notify himself, so he took the initiative to find Louis and wanted to find out what happened.
"You guys have special identities, so I can't tell you how to deal with the media."
Hearing what Louis said, Roy was dumbfounded.
"Special identity?"
Is the coach implying that they are all black, so they shouldn't be in the internal meeting?
Coach is racist?Is what the media says true?
"Don't you understand?" Louie said grumpily. "The way things are now, we don't have a black player who can play right now because you're all injured. But it's not about racism, it's just our luck." Not good, I hope you are doing well more than anyone else, but there are always some people out there who like to speculate and tell stories. In order to avoid causing greater misunderstanding and controversy, I need to tell other players how to deal with media questions.”
Roy asked suspiciously, "Don't we need to deal with the media?"
Louie laughed and said: "As the victims of the team's blatant racist bullying, the media will of course come to you, and you can say whatever you want when the time comes."
Racist bullying?It's all about what!
Roy said loudly: "No one bullies me! There is no racism in our team!"
"Are you sure?"
"Of course it is!"
Louis asked with a smile, "How are Wish and Yao treating you?"
"Since I joined the team, the captain and Wish have taken good care of me."
"No one bullied you?"
"Yes...but as a rookie, helping to carry things is not considered bullying, right?"
Louie asked: "Are you really not under pressure from anyone on the team?"
"no!"
"Can't even find one thing that makes you unhappy?"
"It can still be found..." Roy said, "I was reimbursed for the season just after adapting to the rhythm of the NBA game. I am not happy. I can't fight side by side with my teammates. I am not happy. Because I and Tony's I am not happy that the injury caused the team to get into such trouble!"
"Flies don't bite seamless eggs, who made us have so few black players? This is the negligence of our management." Louis sighed softly.
Hearing this, the hairs on Roy's body were about to stand up. He couldn't accept this kind of rhetoric: "Coach, I have participated in the team's training, and I know the strength of those guys. It is based on the premise of strength, they are all good players, it has nothing to do with skin color!"
Louis smiled and asked back: "Since you have the answers to all the questions, what else do I need to tell you? Answer whatever the media asks, and tell the truth."
"I will be honest, if this kind of thing makes the team bear the stigma of racism, it is more wronged than OJ Simpson being found guilty!"
Louis opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say or not to say.
As a witness to history who is neither white nor black, he insists that Simpson is guilty.
Young man, your analogy is very problematic!
Later, Tony Allen also came to Louie and asked the same question.
Louis also asked him to tell the truth.
Alan Houston and Dwyane Wade did not come to look for Louis, but one of them was already preparing for the work arrangements after retirement, and the other had other thoughts after seeing Lu Wuxia lead the team to shine in the new season.
Still, they're Celtics, they've played for this team, and they know the truth.
"I'm still proud to be a part of the Celtics," Houston said on the Hollywood show, berating those who feared chaos. "Why do they pretend that the Celtics have always been a no-black team? We have Black players, they're all injured, it's pure bad luck, why should it have anything to do with racism?"
Wade's attitude is more ambiguous. He admits that the Celtics' black composition is indeed slightly lower, but it also shows that there is no racism in the team.
"Is the number of black players and white players really that important? This team won the championship a few years ago, and now those players who helped the team win the championship are still the core of the Celtics." Wade asked the media, "They have the strength to win the championship, why do you question the management's selection criteria?"
When the Celtics players expressed their opinions one after another, those who played for Louis also stood up in various places to "get the heat".
However, they went back and forth, not talking nonsense.
With Benjamin Wilson at the fore, everyone can guarantee that Louie is not a racist.
of course there are exceptions.
Isiah Thomas, who has completely transformed into a media person, said eccentrically on the show: "I'm not sure if Coach Road is racist, but I do remember that he used the word 'nigger' to call me."
Thomas was the only one of Louie's former team to bounce back in this incident.
His remarks drew a furious reaction from veteran Celtic players.
"Isiah is lying!" Ralph Sampson told the "Liberator" reporter. "We can all testify that Isiah has either lost his memory or is taking revenge!"
From whether the Celts were racist to whether Louie was racist, everyone was expressing their opinions, and the whole incident erupted like a volcanic eruption with terrible energy.
Finally, even the league office couldn't sit still.
Louie got a call from David Stern the night before the All-Star Game.
PS: There is only one chapter today.The follow-up turmoil of the Black Team will end tomorrow.It was supposed to be today, but I didn't finish it last night.
