“Hey, boy Martin, I want to thank you. How did you convince that stubborn old man Bobby Knight?”
On the phone, Trump said in his characteristic flat-pitched drake voice. Bobby
Knight is definitely that typical old white man – conservative and stubborn, paying attention to antique etiquette, emphasizing superiority and inferiority, and having a bad temper…
This old man once scolded Isaiah Thomas, the Smiling Assassin, and also scolded the young”Basketball God” in the 1984 Olympics.”——Michael Jordan.
Here is a paragraph.
To say that Michael Jordan became famous in the”world basketball world”, it should be the 1992 Men’s Basketball Team. Which Olympics made Jordan famous.
He won the Olympic title with the American”Dream Team.”
But in fact, Michael Jordan also participated in the Olympics in 1984.
At that time, the American men’s basketball team was full of stars, but Jordan was just a newcomer.
The list of members of which American basketball team is as follows: 1. Coach: Bob Knight, 2. Athletes: Alford, Ewing, Fleming, Jordan, Joe Klein, Koncak, Mullin, Sasha Tom Perkins, Alvin Robertson, Disdale, Jeff Turner, Leon Wood.
That was in the semifinals. The West German men’s basketball team caused a lot of trouble for the American team, but in the end the American national team won 78-67.
Coach Bobby Knight was not very good-tempered and angrily scolded Meyer for playing too poorly after the game.
“And said to Jordan, you little bastard should apologize to everyone. You were a drag, and it was their efforts that saved you.”
Jordan cried when he was scolded.
(PS: Jordan later denied this in interviews. He said that he did not remember whether he was scolded at the time, but he could tell everyone with certainty that he did not cry.)
Then he These words were exposed by teammates Leon Wood and Sam Perkins at the time. Sam Perkins was not only Jordan’s national team teammate, but also his North Carolina teammate.
Leon Wood said:”Michael did cry at the time, and I comforted him. Of course, those were not tears of weakness, they were tears of self-blame.”
Sam Perkins said:”Leon Wood used to be Jordan’s younger brother. At that time, Wood went over and patted him on the shoulder to persuade him not to be so sad.”
Sam Perkins added:”I also explained to Jordan that this is just a coaching method of Bobby Knight. He only uses reprimands to improve the team’s cohesion and combat effectiveness. At the time, Jordan thought it was Really hated by the coach.”
Jordan has scolded and cried many people in his career. I am afraid no one would have thought that this guy has also been scolded and cried by others.
By the way, Bobby Knight once publicly suggested that the top players in the 1984 draft Three teams picked Jordan
“Choose him, you won’t regret it.”
Before Michael Jordan played in the NBA, Bobby Knight said:”He is the greatest basketball player I have ever seen.”
It shows that he has a unique vision.
But you all know the final result. The Houston Rockets chose Olajuwon (this is not a loss), and the Portland Trail Blazers chose Sam Bowie (so he has been ridiculed to Today), the Chicago Bulls selected Michael Jordan with the third overall pick (two dynasties).
It is said that the Trail Blazers management was so confused about who to select that they called Bobby, who was the head coach of the American men’s basketball team at the time. ·Nate, there was such a conversation between the two parties
“Bob, I don’t know whether to draft Sam or Jordan (in this draft)?”
“Choose Jordan.”The head coach of the men’s basketball team said:
“But our team currently lacks a center”
“Then choose Jordan! Let him play center!”
At that time, the Blazers management undoubtedly thought Bob Knight was crazy. At that time, Michael Jordan was just a player averaging over 17 points per game at the University of North Carolina, and did not show the outrageous dominance in the NBA. Strength – so in the end they became a joke.
Back to the subject.
Hearing Trump’s doubts, Martin smiled and replied:”The grumpy old man was really difficult to deal with, but he was at a low point in his life at that time, you know, He and Indiana University had a falling out. Both parties needed a step down, and I built a step down for them.”
“It’s that simple?”
“It’s that simple.”
When Bob Knight coached the Indiana University basketball team, he won three NCAA championships for the team, but eventually fell out with the team and the school because of his bad temper.
Both parties actually meant to reconcile, but the school hoped Bob Knight took the initiative, but Bob Knight, a stubborn old man, would not take the initiative to bow his head.
Martin learned about this matter from the memory of Huaxia Martin, acted as a middleman, and solved the matter easily.
In fact, in the original timeline, the two parties reconciled at this time the year after tomorrow, and it was the school that took the initiative to take the first step.
“Haha, anyway, Martin you did a great job. Trump said with a slightly contented tone,”With Cruz withdrawing, I have no opponent in the Republican Party.””
Martin heard that the other party’s tone was a little floating, which seemed to be one of Trump’s characteristics. He was carried away.
He reminded:”Winning the intra-party election is only the first step, Hillary is your ultimate enemy.”
Trump heard the persuasion in Martin’s words, but still said proudly:”Hillary? There is indeed a very powerful force behind that woman, but to put it bluntly, there are big problems with her ‘past’.”(Trump’s original words.)
Martin is very perceptive. Judging from the certainty implied in Trump’s tone, and his understanding of this year’s election in his memory…
I am afraid that the big country in the cold north is going to take action, right?
I hope. Larry’s”email scandal” was about to break out.
The day after Martin and Trump’s phone call, another Republican candidate, Ohio Governor John Kasich, also announced on May 4, local time Stop campaigning.
“I’ve always said, God has other plans for me and for everybody,” he said in his speech. Although I have decided to withdraw from the race today, I still have a deeper faith that God will show me the way to fulfill my purpose in life.”
As a result, Trump became the only candidate in the Republican Party.
《The New York Times pointed out that in this election filled with personal attacks, Kasich has always maintained a sunny attitude – rarely mentioning his opponents, let alone making personal attacks.
Before the New Hampshire primary, Kasich called himself”the prince of light and hope.”
