After Batum was traded out, the Pirates are actually still a little overcrowded in front and back line players.

There are only three insiders left now, and including the newly acquired McDyess, there are only four.

At the moment, McDyess actually plays no role at all. The reason why Richard wants him is to match his salary in subsequent transactions.

What Richard now wants to introduce is Brand, who is playing for the Philadelphia 76ers.

Although Brand is currently in a severe decline, his efficiency in a short period of time is still good, and he is just right to be used as the team's substitute inside man.

And Matthews is the bargaining chip that Richard plans to use to package McDyess in the trade for Brand.

Before the transaction, Richard must let Matthews show a certain potential and immediate combat ability. Otherwise, even if Richard has a good relationship with the Philadelphia 76ers' management, they will definitely not agree to such a deal. trade.

Tonight is obviously the best opportunity for Matthews to show his strength.

Mike Brown was sitting on the bench on the sidelines. He imagined that the team would lose, but he never thought that it would lose in this way, losing completely by being pressed to the ground and rubbing against each other.

After the third quarter, the game entered garbage time, and the Cavaliers were already trailing by a tragic margin of 32 points.

James' statistics are good, with 18 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists. If nothing else, he will definitely get a 20+10 double-double after this game...

But this is useless. In front of the Pirates' iron heel, just a 20+10 data is obviously unable to lead the team to victory.

After Mo Buchuan hit a three-pointer at the beginning, he didn't have a good touch under Curry's pursuit.

You must know that Curry is now bound to a mad dog, and his defensive ability is still quite good.

Mo Bu made 2 of 7 three-pointers in the final pass and only scored 15 points.

There is another big Z who played thirty minutes tonight and scored 10 points. This is all the Cavaliers players who scored in double figures tonight.

On the other hand, the Pirates can be said to have no solution.

Even Matthews, who came off the bench, easily scored 15 points.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Cavaliers simply gave up resistance...

The game was really unplayable. The gap was so huge that it far exceeded Mike Brown's estimation.

He knew very well that even if O'Neal and the others were present tonight, the Pirates might still be able to easily beat the Cavaliers...

When it comes to the playoffs, even if the Cavaliers can defeat the Pistons and meet the Pirates in the Eastern Conference Finals, they may be swept.

Thinking of this situation, Mike Brown is quite painful. He knows that his time to coach the Cavaliers is running out.

After losing in the playoffs, firing the coach first is not a rare thing in the NBA.

"Coach Brown, as the strongest team in the league, we lost by 45 points tonight. How do you feel?"

This is the home court of the Buccaneers, and many reporters from local Charlotte newspapers were present. At the post-game press conference, local reporters asked questions directly and politely.

Brother Bread looked confused, what the hell is the strongest team? This is not what I said, it was Richard who said it...

"First of all, I want to make it clear that I never said that we are the strongest team in the league. This is what Richard said."

"Secondly, there are many reasons why we lost this game tonight. If it were the playoffs, I think this situation would never happen tonight." Mike Brown tried to make himself look more confident...

Many local Charlotte reporters in the audience laughed. If they had known about this, why bother in the first place.

"Coach Brown, so you are sure to kill the Buccaneers in the playoffs?" Another reporter asked Bread Brother a fatal question.

Brother Bread's face became increasingly ugly.

This problem is quite painful. He really has no confidence at all, not even the certainty of avoiding being swept by the Pirates.

But how can it be possible to express such true inner thoughts...

Once he says that, I'm afraid the Cavaliers management will fire him the next day.

But if you tell reporters that you are sure, it will be too embarrassing to be swept away by Richard.

He simply refused to answer the question.

It was the Pirates' turn for the post-game press conference. Richard was in high spirits and brought Matthews, a rookie who performed well tonight, and Roy, who scored the highest score in the game, to the press conference.

"Coach Richard, how do you feel after tonight's game?" the reporter asked.

"It's difficult, it's really difficult..."

"It was too difficult for us to win this game, and you saw how hard we were on the court..."

"Now I just hope that the Pistons can consume more of the Cavaliers in the playoffs. Otherwise, facing the strongest team in the league, I will be under considerable pressure."

The reporters in the audience rolled their eyes. They all won by more than 40 points, and they dared to talk about the difficulty of winning. Can they get some face?

"Coach Richard, we just received news that the Los Angeles Clippers are in internal strife. What do you think?"

Reporters have just received news that something quite unpleasant happened after the Clippers' game tonight.

"Huh? They are fighting among themselves? It's a little unreasonable for you to ask me about this, isn't it? But I'm still curious, what happened to them? From your tone, it seems like it's not a small matter." The gossip in Richard's mind The fire burned brightly.

"Of course it has something to do with you, because the Clippers' internal strife broke out between their head coach and owner Sterling." The reporter said with a smile.

Everyone knows that Stevens is a direct descendant of Richard...

After tonight's game, the quarrel between Stevens and Sterling came from the Clippers locker room, and the reporters outside the door heard it clearly.

Although I don't know exactly what happened, there is no doubt that it was internal strife.

As a direct descendant of Richard, Stevens, if something like this happens now, reporters will naturally want to ask Richard.

Richard was startled. He never expected that Stevens, a good-tempered person, would actually quarrel with his boss.

And it sounds like the matter is quite serious. If nothing else happens, it will definitely make headlines tomorrow.

Richard frowned and began to think deeply.

If nothing else happens, tomorrow's news headlines may include the news that Stevens was fired by the Clippers in addition to the conflict between Stevens and Sterling.

Regardless of which team he is placed on, if you argue with the boss, it will definitely not end well.

Richard is not worried that Stevens can't find a new home. Everyone has seen Stevens' ability over the years. It is actually quite difficult to bring a messed-up team like the Clippers into the playoffs.

It may take less than 24 hours for Stevens to find a home.

What Richard is considering now is not Stevens' next club, but whether he should take this opportunity to recruit Sterling.

Maybe we can take advantage of this opportunity to directly make Sterling lose ownership of the Clippers!

After pondering for a while, while the reporters were wondering what Richard was thinking, Richard picked up the microphone in front of him.

"Stevens is the head coach I watched growing up. He is a very capable young coach, and he is quite upright in his dealings with people."

"I think I am definitely ashamed of myself in this regard. He is an upright head coach, but I am obviously not as upright as him..." Richard first made a joke, at least he thought it was a joke.

The reporters in the audience nodded. There was nothing wrong with this statement. In terms of integrity, even a hundred Richards could not compare to Stevens.

Richard looked at the reporters in the audience and nodded, and was dumbfounded. How dare he be so evil in the eyes of these people? !

"For such an upright person to be quarreling with his boss, I can definitely conclude that the problem lies with Sterling."

"I don't have much interaction with Sterling, but I still know a little bit about his personality."

"It can be said that he is not a good person. If I can go to heaven after death, then he can only go to hell..."

"I don't like Sterling very much. When Stevens wanted to go to the Clippers, I blocked him. I had expected what would happen today."

"Anyway, this matter is Sterling's fault. Stevens is a good friend I want to be. If Sterling dares to fire Stevens because of this matter, I will never let him go." Get over him!"

The reporters in the audience were dumbfounded. At tonight's press conference, shouldn't you, Richard, be able to catch Bread Guy and ridicule him to your heart's content? !

Why is the firepower directed at Clippers owner Sterling now? From Richard's tone, it seems that he wants to completely offend Sterling.

Especially the last sentence, even if Sterling had no intention of firing Stevens, he had to fire him now, otherwise, wouldn't he be afraid of Richard.

This is a real pig teammate!

It would 100% put Stevens out of a job.

Moreover, reporters can’t understand why Richard dislikes Sterling so much. In Richard’s words, he, a devil, can go to heaven, but Sterling only deserves to go to hell? !

So how bad is this Sterling? He is probably so bad...

The reporters were a little happy when such an unexpected scene suddenly appeared. They didn't get the news about Richard mocking the Cavaliers, but the news about Richard angrily scolding Sterling was even more powerful.
