Bishop of the Devil

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

In the end, Purdue University defeated the North Carolina Tar Heels with a score of 99:71 and successfully won the championship of this national championship.

"Hey, Michael, why do you think your North Carolina team is called the Tar Heels? Why does this team name sound so weird?" Richard always couldn't help but be curious every time he heard the name of the Tar Heels team.

Jordan was around today, so he asked directly.

Jordan waved his hand directly, "Who knows, let alone you, I feel weird, this name is simply..."

"No one knows why it was named that way."

"Just like you definitely don't know why Purdue is called the Boilermaker..."

Richard nodded. That's true. There are too many teams in the NCAA. If the team name is too popular, it will be difficult to leave an impression on others.

…

The game is over, and next is the championship awarding session.

A bunch of people from Purdue University were making melon balls, and everyone was grinning. Even Aldridge, the famous facial paralysis player, was no exception at this moment, smiling extremely happily.

They are just a bunch of freshmen, and it means a lot to win the national championship together.

This will also become the best memory of their entire career.

The NCAA is not a commercial league. Although it is essentially not much different from the NBA, it is just that it does not need to pay players...

But no matter what you say, the NCAA will definitely not recognize itself as a commercial league.

Otherwise, their MVP would not be named MOP.

Aldridge scored 32 points, 19 rebounds and 4 blocks in this game, winning the MOP of this national championship.

Although MOP is the best player in the semi-finals, his performance in the finals actually accounts for a large proportion. As long as his performance in the finals is eye-catching enough, even if his performance in the semi-finals is a little weak, he will definitely win in the end. Kudos to MOP.

…

When it came time to award the awards, Jordan straightened his tie and walked onto the court.

That's right, tonight's award guest is Jordan...

In fact, not only Jordan, but Richard was also a guest of honor. However, because of the special nature of this game, the NCAA greeted Jordan and Richard before the game.

North Carolina won, and Richard presented the award.

Purdue wins, Jordan awards...

Now that Purdue has won the championship, naturally Jordan came on stage to present the award.

Some people may be wondering why the NCAA championship awards are presented to two people from the NBA circle.

In fact, this is not the case. Jordan and Richard are both monumental figures even in the NCAA circle.

Needless to say, Richard, the golden brand of Purdue University alone is enough to qualify him to be the award guest.

As for Jordan, his career in the NBA was perfect, and he was also amazing during his time in the NCAA.

As a freshman, he led North Carolina to win the championship against its opponents. This is something that few freshmen in the entire history of the NCAA can do.

…

After Jordan came on the court, he tried his best to look happy. In fact, how could he be happy now?

Finally, this year, my alma mater, North Carolina, reached the finals, only to encounter Purdue, which was reborn from the ashes. It was really unlucky.

In previous years, North Carolina would definitely win the championship this year!

…

After the award ceremony ended, the lights suddenly dimmed.

Richard knew that in the coming time, old Philip would be the protagonist.

His retirement ceremony began.

Before Richard traveled through time, old Philip could only be regarded as a nobody. Even among the assistants at Purdue University, he was not the best assistant.

But in the next eight or nine years, he led Purdue University to four championship trophies, and he was also elected to the Hall of Fame.

Such fruitful achievements were enough for NCAA officials to give him a decent retirement ceremony.

…

The flash hit the center of the court, and old Philip stood calmly, with a look of relaxation and reluctance on his face.

"Many guys may already know that tonight I will retire and bid farewell to the NCAA completely."

Many fans in the stadium blinked, they really didn't know about this.

Just retire like this? You know you just led your team to win the championship!

How could any other head coach be willing to retire at such a time?

Everyone knows that with Purdue's current strength, in the next few years, as long as their main players do not participate in the draft, they will always be the most favorable contenders for the championship.

Doesn't Philippe Sr. not want to continue to win the championship? Don’t you want your four championship trophies to turn into six, or even more? !

"I am almost 70 years old. Although I am a little reluctant to leave this stage, there is no point in continuing to occupy this position."

"Now it's time to say goodbye."

"Here, I want to thank someone, you should know who it is."

"That's right, it's Richard, the crazy Richard you call him."

"It can be said that without Richard, Purdue would not be as brilliant as it is now, and also there would be no perfect career for me, old Philip."

"I don't know whether Richard is crazy or not. I only know that he is a good man."

After saying that, Old Philip looked at Richard sitting on the sidelines.

Richard smiled wryly and nodded in greeting, feeling quite reluctant to leave old Philip in his heart.

"After I leave, Coach Browne will take over as the head coach of Purdue University. I believe that under his leadership, Purdue University will go further and win more championships."

"Finally, let us shout our slogan one more time!"

"Pudu Wansheng!"

As Old Philip shouted, the Purdue fans in the stadium and the Purdue players on the field, including Richard on the sidelines.

They all stood up and shouted.

"Pudu Wansheng!"

"Pudu Wansheng!"

…

Old Philip retired like this, and Richard felt an indescribable sadness in his heart.

This old man who has been with him for more than ten years is one of the closest people to Richard in this world.

"It doesn't matter if you retire, it's time to enjoy life at this age."

"When I am almost seventy years old, I will definitely have the idea of ​​​​retiring." Richard thought silently in his heart.

By the time I turn seventy, it will be almost 2040.

Richard could not imagine what he would become in more than thirty years, but one thing is certain, he will definitely be the most shining person in the entire NBA history.

How many championships will you have on hand by then? 10? impossible!

20? Probably!

Thinking of the scene where his hands and feet were filled with championship rings, Richard grinned.
