Bishop of the Devil

"If you don't interfere, don't interfere. I'm not very interested in this kind of thing." Jordan curled his lips and said disdainfully.

Richard laughed. Jordan said this really against his will. He was actually really interested in this kind of thing.

But even if he is very interested, it won't work without the vision. Everything will definitely have to be built according to Richard's arrangement.

"Michael, this is not a joke. If you are really sure that you want to accept this new army, I'm afraid you have to start making preparations now." Richard reminded Jordan.

Jordan nodded, "I have already started preparations. I will probably have to wait until the end of the season for capital verification. I will inform you then."

"Can you handle the 150 million US dollars in cash? Don't make any mistakes with this money then." Jordan asked worriedly.

Richard waved his hand, Jordan might have underestimated his own financial resources.

"Old man, you don't have to worry about money."

"Okay, I'll contact you when there is further news!" Jordan stretched out his hand to Richard.

Richard stretched out his hand to shake Jordan's hand, which was considered a partnership agreement between the two.

Fans and reporters on the sidelines were stunned when they suddenly saw Richard and Jordan shaking hands.

Could it be that these two gangsters reached some agreement and then joined hands to harm the alliance?

…

"Beep!" The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

The All-Star Game is over, and the Eastern Conference won this year's All-Star Game.

This result is actually acceptable to the fans. Many people feel that the Western Conference may give way to Jordan this year, hoping that Jordan will win the MVP on his birthday night.

But now the West seems to have really given up to the East, but Jordan definitely has no chance of winning the MVP.

He played a total of 13 minutes in this game and scored 7 points. He had no chance of winning the MVP anyway.

Why does Jordan care about this right now? Today's birthday night is of great significance to him. He would definitely not trade it for ten All-Star MVPs.

He and Richard successfully reached a cooperation intention. If nothing unexpected happens, in a year and a half, he and Richard will take over a new team as the real leaders of the team.

This can be regarded as fulfilling one of Jordan's dreams...

Thinking that it wouldn't be long before he could become the real owner of a team, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

In the Wizards before, although he also had shares and was considered the owner, he was completely controlled by others. The team's management jointly squeezed him out, making his life very uncomfortable.

Now, after taking over this new army, I will definitely not encounter this situation. Both myself and Richard own half of the shares, so it is impossible to be squeezed out.

…

Not only Jordan is excited, Richard is also extremely excited right now.

Although he does not hold the majority of the shares in this new army, Richard is satisfied enough to hold half of the shares.

If this matter is really done, then Richard will be working for himself from now on.

He spent many years in the NBA before. Counting the next one and a half seasons, Richard spent five seasons with the Trail Blazers and three seasons with the Pistons, for a total of eight seasons.

A full eight years, including the two years in the NCAA, ten years!

For ten years, Richard has been working for others...

Although Richard has gained countless money and honors from working for others, he still doesn't feel as good as being his own boss.

…

While Richard was thinking about it, the results of the All-Star MVP came out, and Yao Ming was elected as the MVP of this year's All-Star without any doubt.

He played for 33 minutes and scored 37 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks. He definitely deserves the All-Star MVP award!

Originally, according to the plan of the NBA Management Committee, if the Eastern Conference wins this year, they are prepared to give Jordan an All-Star MVP.

Even if Jordan's statistics are not the best in the Eastern Conference, they can still produce a joint MVP.

Under normal circumstances, during this All-Star Weekend, if the Eastern Conference had not lost to the Western Conference, I am afraid that the All-Star MVP would have been shared between Iverson and Jordan.

Many fans, and I'm going to say a lot of Kohei, are saying that it was Kobe who screwed up Jordan's last All-Star appearance.

In fact, this statement is purely for the sake of being black.

Someone indeed screwed up Jordan's last All-Star game, but it wasn't Kobe, but Jordan's teammate O'Brien...

Under normal circumstances, Ou has become the Pacers' star player and is naturally qualified to enter the Eastern Conference All-Star lineup.

When the first overtime was about to end, Kobe took a three-pointer from the outside, but was fouled by O'Brien and missed the three-pointer, but Kobe got three free throw opportunities...

At this time, the Eastern Conference is only leading by two points. If Kobe makes all three free throws, he will directly defeat the Eastern Conference.

As a result, Kobe only made two of three free throws, sending the game into overtime...

At this point in time, Kobe was also quite embarrassed. Although it was just an entertainment game, if he missed all three critical free throws at the last moment or made one of three, there was no telling what Heizi would say.

But if he makes three free throws and directly kills the Eastern Conference, then I guess he will definitely get scolded...

He simply made two of three free throws and let the game enter the second overtime. He didn't care about what happened next.

Looking at the video of this game, when Kobe was taking his second free throw, Francis ran behind Kobe and didn't know what to say. As a result, Kobe's second free throw was quite casual and he missed.

(I highly recommend watching the 2003 All-Star Game, which played two overtimes. It was quite exciting)

…

The award ceremony was in progress, and when Yao Ming won the All-Star MVP trophy, a system prompt sounded in Richard's mind.

"Congratulations to the host for getting Yao Ming, Geon Clark, Gerald Wallace, Laga Bell, and Mike Bibby to become All-Stars."

After receiving five All-Star honors in a row, Richard felt a little regretful.

This year's 16 All-Stars have played under Richard, but it is indeed a pity that they only received five All-Star honors.

However, Richard doesn't have a few All-Stars left in his hands right now, and now he has added five more, which can be considered a happy event.

…

"Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the super giant headband of the super giant suit!"

He got another giant suit. Counting the giant sneakers and giant pants he got before, Richard has now collected one-third of the giant suit. After getting the remaining two-thirds, , you can completely put together the super giant suit.

It has been almost seven years since he entered the league, and Richard has only managed to collect three pieces. If he wants to collect the remaining suits, Richard estimates that it will take less than ten years.

There is still a long way to go...

But if you really want to put these things together, it will definitely be a good thing. If you pass it on to your son, you will definitely be able to create a historical super giant.

In the future, the son can even pass it on to his grandson as a family heirloom.

But after thinking about this, Richard couldn't help but feel a pain in his balls...

Where is the son? Where is my son...

Forget about the son, he doesn't even have a wife now, where can he find a son?

…

"Congratulations to the host. The coach Yao Ming won the All-Star MVP in his rookie season. He is on par with the super stars in history and is rewarded with the coaching skill "Group Therapy"."

Richard was startled when he heard the name of this group therapy skill.

What is this reward? Is there a QQ group as a reward...

However, the subsequent introduction of group therapy skills allowed Richard to dispel this doubt.

"Group therapy: Before the start of each season, the host coach can use this skill on all players with guaranteed contracts in the team. Random target players will not be affected by old illnesses for the duration of the season."

"The skill effect is guaranteed to be applied to one player, with a 50% chance of two players, a 20% chance of three players, a 10% chance of four players, and the upper limit is four players!"

Richard smacked his lips, this is a good thing.

Anyway, it’s much easier to use than the "Roar" skill I got before...

The roaring skill is only necessary when the two sides are really evenly matched, or when the opponent is stronger than themselves.

But after getting this skill, Richard's pioneers are almost invincible, and there is no chance to use this skill.

Later, the Pistons came, and they failed in the first season, so there was no need to use this skill.

Now this season, when it comes to the playoffs, it is possible that this "Roar" skill will be used.

In Richard's opinion, this newly acquired group therapy skill should be called group therapy to be precise.

There is no doubt that, judging from the introduction of this skill, the effect is quite powerful.

However, this skill is purely based on appearance and has no specificity. This effect may eventually be used on some healthy players...

But with this thing, if he's lucky, Richard won't have to worry about injuries.

At the moment, Richard also has an intact elixir and an intermediate injury scroll on hand, both of which can be used to treat players.

The value of the intact elixir was too high, and Richard was not prepared to use it easily. Yao Ming had no need for it right now. Even if there were any serious injuries, an intermediate injury scroll would be enough to deal with it.

It is very likely that this intact elixir will be treasured by Richard for many years like the lucky dice before, and will be taken out for use at the most critical moment.

…

The All-Star Game has come to an end, and Richard is quite satisfied with this All-Star Game, having taken everything he deserves.

Next, it’s time to focus all your energy on transactions. There is still about a week before the door of the trading market closes. Richard plans to sell all the players who have been fattened before then to prepare for the 2003 draft.

Although Richard and Jordan have already decided on their intention to cooperate, but when the clock hits the clock, you can't look forward to the new army, and the Pistons just don't care...

Moreover, the matter of running the new army is not yet done. Although we are very confident, no one can guarantee that it will be possible.
