Bishop of the Devil

Sloan and Malone left sadly...

Winning this game is really more uncomfortable than losing!

On Zhang Weiping's side, after losing the game, several people felt as if they had eaten honey, and everyone's face was filled with smiles.

Especially when they saw the Jazz players leaving the field sadly, they grinned even more...

The Jazz fans at the scene wanted to boo the Trail Blazers players, but when they thought about it, what was the use of booing these people? The original owner of the Trail Blazers isn't here today, so let's save some money...

…

Lost!

In other words, he successfully dragged Jazz into the funeral!

In this last game, Richard, Paul Allen and the team's executives watched the live broadcast together...

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the whole audience cheered!

They are the owners and the team's executives, but they are also fans of the home team...

The home team suffered such a loss, but when there was no hope of promotion, they could bite the enemy back and bite the enemy into a disability with one missing leg. This was a huge success in their eyes!

As for the lost income, Paul Allen doesn't particularly care...

Richard's achievements have far exceeded Paul Allen's psychological expectations!

"Man, be happy, this is a success for us!" Paul Allen said with a smile and patted Richard on the shoulder.

Richard smiled bitterly. With the referee's whistle, this season was completely over...

Even Richard didn't expect that his first season in the NBA would end with such a dramatic ending!

Looking back on this season, Richard suddenly realized that he seemed to have really caused a lot of trouble...

This whole season, I haven't stopped at all!

However, Richard is actually a little proud of his performance in his first NBA season...

The team's record is pretty good. It reached the Western Conference semifinals in the regular season and even defeated the Jazz. Richard even felt that what he did would affect the ownership of the championship this season...

The Jazz can't beat the Bulls, but the Rockets may not...

In addition to these, what really makes Richard satisfied is the lineup he has assembled. This season has already initially fulfilled its potential!

It is foreseeable that the Trail Blazers will definitely improve their record next season!

All in all, in Richard's opinion, he spent his first NBA season perfectly and basically left no regrets.

…

"Okay, bosses, the season is over, it's time to start preparing for next season!"

Richard stood up and said to Paul Allen and the team executives.

Paul Allen looked at Richard strangely, does this young man really have no private life at all...

At the end of the season, both players and coaches will start to take a vacation for themselves, either to spend time with their families or to spend time with their lovers. If they don’t have a lover, they can take this time to find a few lovers.

Paul Allen is definitely a sweetheart. He is in his forties, currently unmarried and has no children. He spent hundreds of millions of dollars to build himself a super luxurious yacht...

No, a cruise is more appropriate!

Paul Allen's yacht is really too luxurious. It has many entertainment facilities on board, including a movie theater, a recording room, and even a submarine.

This is definitely the luxurious life of the top rich...

This kind of born hedonist obviously can't understand Richard. In his opinion, Richard should enjoy it when he has such a long vacation at his age!

"Li, don't be so tense..."

"Those who don't know better think that I, the boss, is a guy who exploits his employees!"

"You should give yourself a good vacation and enjoy life."

"Well, in a week, I will have a party on my yacht, haha, you must go!"

"This is what I, the boss, ask of you! You can take the players to relax. Of course, I, the boss, will not join in the fun. If I do, it may affect you."

"By the way, call your little brothers from West Lafayette and have a nice gathering..."

Paul Allen was really kind and kind. Maybe he knew that Richard was not willing to go to the party, so he directly forced Richard to go...

In the end, Paul Allen did not forget to wink at Richard, "Man, feel free to go, my yacht party is the best in the world and has everything you want!"

This man's knowing look made Richard dumbfounded...

Speaking of which, Richard really didn't want to go to a yacht party. He really had too much work on his hands.

The contract of Clifford Robinson in the team is about to expire, and Richard will definitely discuss the renewal plan of Robinson's contract with the team management.

In addition, Ben's one-year contract has also expired...

Now that the season is over, it's time to start trying to strengthen the team in the free market. Richard currently wants to get rid of the contracts of some players in the team, and also wants to get some 1998 draft picks.

As for the 1997 draft picks, Richard will definitely try to trade up. If he can get Dazhi or McGrady, Richard will definitely not miss such an opportunity.

If there is a chance, Richard will definitely want to recruit Da Zhi to his side for training. Even though the Trail Blazers currently have no shortage of anti-aircraft shooters like Da Zhi in the team, the road is made by people, and Richard will definitely be able to do it in the end. Think of ways to cultivate Da Zhi.

As for McGrady, he would normally be selected with the ninth overall pick. Richard doesn’t know if McGrady will still be selected with this pick in this draft...

If he could take off Tracy McGrady, then Richard would definitely be happy to do so. Thinking about the two of them playing on the same team, it would be as beautiful as a picture...

But the main reason is that the pick is too high. Richard is really not sure that he can get such a high pick in the upcoming draft!

Everything can only be left to chance...

He could get the best, but if he couldn't get it, Richard wouldn't be crying over it.

At present, all Richard's transactions are aimed at 1998!

Richard, who is familiar with NBA history, knows very well that if he really wants to win the championship within three years of entering the NBA, the 1998-99 season is undoubtedly the best opportunity!

This is a shortened season, the Bulls dynasty has collapsed, and Richard's lineup will also mature by then!

Perfect time to win the championship!

So what Richard is doing right now can almost be said to be preparing for this season!

If the draft picks you currently hold cannot be exchanged for the high-ranking draft picks of 1997, then you can exchange them for the 1998 draft picks. Anyway, you can earn a Warrior Saint Jackson in 1997 with a minimum guarantee!

…

There is a lot of work on hand, but at least in recent days, Richard will not be able to start work.

Because the evil capitalist boss Paul Allen forced Richard, a good citizen, to attend some kind of yacht party!

Naturally, Richard was extremely reluctant to go, but with the idea of ​​long-term experience, he reluctantly went...
