First, Davidson, the current boss of the Pistons, contacted Richard directly...
He couldn't explain clearly on the phone, so Old Davidson ran directly to Richard's office again.
The eighty-year-old Davidson, judging from the fact that he came to see Richard in person, showed that he really cared about Richard.
Mainly because Richard gave him great hope...
The Pistons' record last season was not very good, and Old Davidson didn't care. Since Richard was asked to rebuild the Pistons, it was impossible for him to achieve any results in the first season after joining...
That is simply unrealistic, and the old Davidson's steady temperament will certainly not lead to such unrealistic ideas.
By the end of the first season, Richard's various actions directly made the old Davidson happy.
First, he directly won the number one pick in the lottery with a very low probability.
Then he used the No. 1 pick to select Yao Ming, a super insider who is recognized by the outside world as no less than O'Neal!
Then, there was the complete rise of the Pistons, firmly occupying the first position in the Eastern Conference. The second-ranked Nets were far behind the Pistons.
In fact, if we really talk about it here in the east, it’s really terrible...
Last season, the Nets, which ranked first in the Eastern Conference, only won 52 games. If they were placed in the Western Conference, they would only be ranked fifth in the Western Conference.
This is also the reason why the Eastern Conference produced regular season MVPs in the following years and was not convinced by all fans, because logically speaking, such a garbage record is not qualified to win the regular season MVP.
They have won more than ten games in the Western Conference than you, and their personal statistics are not worse than yours. However, you won the regular season MVP. No one would be happy.
This is also the reason why the Pistons can firmly sit first in the Eastern Conference this year even if they don't make any special efforts...
There really isn't much competition in the East.
Especially this year, it is even more miserable under normal circumstances. The number one team in the Eastern Conference only has 50 wins after a season.
If you leave it to the Western Conference, they will almost not even make the playoffs. You know, they are seventh in the Western Conference and have won 47 games.
…
Now that Richard's Pistons have appeared, they can be regarded as a fig leaf for the Eastern Conference.
The Pistons' current record ranks third in the league. The Trail Blazers and Kings have better records than the Pistons...
It is obvious that Richard's team leadership ability is really incredible, and he has directly turned a fragmented team into the backbone team in the Eastern Conference.
Under such circumstances, Old Davidson naturally valued Richard very highly.
As soon as Richard's Rule No. 3 came out, Old Davidson became a little anxious...
After making many inquiries, he learned that Jordan and Richard were preparing to accept the new army.
This made the old man very anxious. He was really prepared to see the Pistons win another championship before he closed his eyes...
Richard had given him great expectations. Now that he heard that Richard might run away, he couldn't sit still at all.
"Li, you can't do this, your approach will hurt the hearts of many fans!" The old man was a little anxious. After entering Richard's office, he said in a dissatisfied tone.
"Don't get excited, Mr. Davidson. It seems that you should know about this matter. Listen to me slowly." Richard also knew that the matter between himself and Jordan would definitely be known to others.
So now Richard is not planning to hide anything, and is planning to have a good chat with old Davidson.
"Aren't there still two seasons left? Don't worry, Mr. Davidson, I will definitely be able to bring you a championship in these two seasons!" Richard said with a smile.
Seeing Richard so relaxed, Old Davidson also breathed a sigh of relief.
If Richard is really so confident about winning the championship, then this matter is not difficult to accept.
"Are you sure? Li, young man, it's not a good habit to talk big."
"It's not a lie, Mr. Davidson, I am absolutely sure that I can win the championship, and I may even win consecutive championships in the next two years!"
"You can rest assured that even if I really leave the Pistons, I will definitely leave a heavy glory to the Pistons."
These words directly reassured the old Davidson. It would be great if he could win the championship. All he thinks about now is to win the championship...
He is already eighty years old, and who knows how many years he still has to live. He doesn't expect Richard to build a dynasty for him. He can accept it if he has a championship.
…
After sending Old Davidson away, Richard breathed a sigh of relief. His words just now were also explained to Old Davidson.
Richard is not talking nonsense, he is really sure about winning the championship.
At least in the next two years, he is sure to bring at least one championship trophy to the Pistons!
As long as I can win the championship, I can give an explanation to the Pistons fans...
Of course, he also gave an explanation to his players. After they were selected by Richard, Richard had to add some luster to their careers no matter what.
…
As soon as old Davidson left here, Richard's phone calls started to explode. In this alliance, Richard has many enemies, but he also has many allies.
When they learned the news, they called Richard one after another to inquire about the situation...
Richard didn't try to hide it. Anyway, this matter couldn't be hidden from others. It is estimated that in a few days, the big-mouthed Jordan will be known to the whole city.
…
"Lee, you're good now. You're about to become the owner of the team!" Paul Allen said with a smile on the phone.
"I'm still far behind you, old man. How are you feeling lately? Take good care of yourself." Richard was very close to Paul Allen, and when he thought about his later death from cancer recurrence at the age of only sixty-five, he couldn't help but Some worries about his health.
In fact, Paul Allen was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in 1983, and it was precisely because of this disease that he left Microsoft...
But later the lymphoma completely recovered.
But what makes people sigh is that in 2009, he was diagnosed with another cancer. This time he was not so lucky. Although he achieved a staged victory in the fight against cancer, he still passed away nine years later.
Richard is also quite helpless about this kind of life, old age, illness and death.
Although he is a mysterious system host, he is not so powerful that he can tamper with the Book of Life and Death.
It would be useless to tell Paul Allen now that his cancer would return in a few years.
How could these top rich people not have physical examinations? Let alone them, even Richard himself undergoes physical examinations every three months.
But even with a physical examination, the cancer will come back if it should come back...
Besides, if Paul Allen was informed like this, he might regard Richard as a lunatic.
"Why do you kid always think of me as an old man in his 70s or 80s? Man, I'm still very young..."
"I'm just fifty years old, not much older than you. Don't greet me with that tone of greeting an elderly person!" Paul Allen was quite speechless.
Richard sighed secretly...
"I'm really calling you for something this time, not just to congratulate you on becoming the owner of the team." Paul Allen said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
"Is something wrong? Does the Blazers' lineup need reinforcement? It doesn't seem necessary, right?" Richard became confused.
"No, it's not about work, it's about personal matters. My niece wants to go to Detroit. You can help entertain her for a while. The security in that place is not very good, so you have to take good care of it for me!" Paul Allen proposed made a rather strange request...
Richard frowned, niece? !
I'm afraid it's Paul Allen's niece Tiana Allen. Old Americans don't distinguish between nieces and nephews, they all use the same word anyway.
Tiana Richard is no stranger. She has met her several times before when the Trail Blazers held team gatherings.
A rather shy little girl. I remember that a few years ago, when she was maybe seventeen or eighteen years old, she would always follow her mother, a little shy.
Her mother is, of course, Paul Allen's biological sister Jodi Allen.
Just look at Tiana's surname and you will know that it follows her mother's surname. Either she stepped in, or Jodi gave birth to a child out of wedlock and the man ran away...
It is not popular in the United States to intervene backwards, so the latter one is more likely.
Richard frowned, feeling that what Paul Allen mentioned was completely inexplicable.
Paul Allen has no children, so he has always treated Tiana as his own child. He really raised her like a princess...
It's normal when you think about it, their Allen family has such a descendant, it would be strange not to favor him.
But the more this happens, the more strange it makes Richard feel...
Well, why would this wealthy young lady want to come to a place like Detroit?
Experience life? ! impossible……
Detroit is known as the Motor City, a blue-collar city, but there is not much place to experience life, unless this little princess has a great dream of becoming a proletarian worker.
The more he thought about it, the weirder it became, so Richard simply asked.
"Old man, is it Tiana? Detroit is not a fun place. Why don't you let her move to another place? I'm not sure I can take care of her..."
"Li, this matter is not up to you, this matter is settled, you can't run away!"
"Just wait for Tiana to call you. She will probably leave in a few days, so be prepared."
After that, Paul Allen hung up the phone...
Richard looked confused, what preparations are you making? Do you want to clean your butt?
