Bishop of the Devil

"Coach, I know what to do!" Iverson nodded, deciding in his heart what he should do.

Any player who comes out of West Lafayette is a winner on the court.

And now after arriving in the NBA, Iverson may not have lost as many games in his life as he did in more than a month...

He has to do something!

He has to get out of this situation!

Although this season is a good choice for the Philadelphia 76ers, Richard also said that in the next year's draft, except for Duncan, there will be no reliable insider...

In this case, at least for Iverson, there is no point in showing off!

Is it possible to get another outside line?

…

The game against the Philadelphia 76ers began, making Iverson even more determined to solve the team's current predicament!

The 76ers lost quite miserably, and the inside line was reduced to rubbish by the Trail Blazers...

Even O'Neal Jr., who did not perform very well some time ago, scored a high score of 18 points in today's game!

As for Ben, they were two scumbag insiders who completely dominated the 76ers, scoring super statistics of 15 rebounds and 4 blocks on their own!

Stackhouse's tragic story made those who heard it sad and those who heard it shed tears...

As Iverson's direct competitor, Richard naturally has to take care of Stackhouse.

Of course, in this normal competition for team status, Richard would not go as far as to attack Stackhouse.

But targeting Stackhouse on the court is definitely indispensable...

Bowen, who had been recovering for a long time due to a "serious injury", was specially sent to the field by Richard to guard Stackhouse.

Throughout the game, Stackhouse made 5 of 13 two-pointers and 0 of 4 three-pointers. Counting free throws, he only scored 13 points in 17 shots, which was quite miserable...

As for Kobe, who was facing Iverson, the pressure was not that great.

Iverson ended up with 27 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists in this game, which is the only highlight of the 76ers game!

Many 76ers fans who watched this game were shocked...

You must know that Iverson and Stackhouse took almost the same number of shots in this game, but Iverson scored 27 points, while Stackhouse only scored 13 points, not even half of Iverson's points. …

This is what makes people so angry!

Kobe's performance in this game was pretty good, and he steadily recorded 14 points and 8 assists.

…

"Thank you, coach, I hope I can give you a surprise next time we play against each other!" After the game, Iverson walked to Richard to say goodbye.

Perhaps only the two of them knew what Iverson meant by thanking him.

"Okay, then I'm waiting for your surprise. The next time we play against each other will be after the All-Star Game. Come on, my little man!" Richard patted Iverson on the shoulder and said with a smile.

…

In the entire month of December, the most valuable game is naturally the Christmas game!

However, a team like the Trail Blazers is naturally not qualified to play in the Christmas Day game. However, the Chicago Bulls' first game after the Christmas Day game will be against the Portland Trail Blazers, so many Trail Blazers fans are still looking forward to it. The Christmas War has arrived.

The strength of the Trail Blazers players is improving, this is an undoubted fact!

Although there is no such sudden improvement, judging from the two games against the SuperSonics, these young players have definitely improved.

The Blazers lost miserably against the Sonics for the first time. It would be no exaggeration to say that they were defeated by the Sonics!

But the second time they faced the SuperSonics, although the Trail Blazers still lost, and the point difference was not small, at least compared to the first time they met, the situation was much better...

Especially in terms of inside rebounds, the Trail Blazers did not lose to the SuperSonics in rebounds this time, and they were basically tied!

It can be said that the strength gap between the Trail Blazers and the SuperSonics is gradually narrowing, which also gives Richard hope of defeating the SuperSonics!

Maybe the next time they play against each other, or even the next time they play against each other, the Blazers will lose...

But if the Blazers can maintain this growth rate, then next season the Blazers may be able to truly compete with the SuperSonics!

In today's league, there is no doubt that the Bulls are the first-tier team!

It is more similar to the Warriors of later generations, the only super team in the league.

The second-tier teams below the Bulls are the Jazz, Rockets, SuperSonics, Heat and Knicks. Among them, the Jazz are considered the best of these five teams. At least this season, the Jazz have the ability to resist the Bulls. Strength.

As for the third tier, it is headed by the Lakers, and below are some teams that are fully confident of making it to the playoffs this season.

And then the remaining teams are considered inferior teams...

The current Trail Blazers can basically join the third tier, but this is only temporary. After all, the Trail Blazers have an advantage in the early schedule, and no one knows what their next schedule will be like.

Moreover, the Trail Blazers have many newcomers, and most of the team's main players are newcomers. No one can guarantee whether these newcomers will have a period of weakness or whether there will be a rookie wall in the second half of the season!

Therefore, in the opinion of some experts, the current Blazers can only be regarded as the bottom of the third echelon.

If the subsequent record is not going well, the Blazers may be directly swept into the ranks of inferior teams...

…

Of course, Richard will not allow this to happen. If his team is classified as inferior, it will probably be more uncomfortable for him than killing Richard...

Before facing the Bulls, the Trail Blazers still have a game against the Lakers.

The Lakers' current record, compared to those of the second-tier teams, is actually not much different. After all, O'Neal, a powerful inside player, is not given for free.

This game is actually a better test of the Blazers' gold content than the Bulls!

…

One game against the Lakers and one against the Bulls. These are the two games that Richard cares about most in December!

He needs to use these two games to accelerate the growth of the team's newcomers!

…

December 15th is a relatively ordinary day.

But this day is an unusual day for Richard and the readers of Violent Black.

Because this day is the release day of the college volume of "Violent Black"!

Readers have lost count of how long they have been waiting, and they are finally looking forward to the release of the college volume...

It was still published by Time Inc. Originally, they were planning to let Richard hold a book signing, but Richard refused.

I am so busy every day, how can I have time to go to a book signing!

A book signing, including the round trip time, would waste a whole day of Richard's time.

It is worth mentioning that because this college paper has a lot of words, up to 300,000 words, the price is much higher than that of high school papers, and the price is as high as thirty US dollars!

However, this high price still cannot stop the love of avid readers. On the first day of sale, it sold 200,000 copies!

With the booming sales, Richard was naturally happy from ear to ear...

It is foreseeable that the US dollar income that this college examination paper brings to Richard is definitely much higher than that of high school examination papers!

The high school papers have already brought Richard millions of dollars in income, and the college papers will likely bring Richard nearly 20 million US dollars in income!

Plus Richard's head coaching salary...

Maybe before long, Richard will be worth tens of millions!

At that time, Richard would probably have to start thinking about how to make money...
