Bishop of the Devil

The press conference of the four core players of the Lakers directly shocked the entire basketball circle.

Many strong teams that have listed the Lakers as competitors this year look like they are watching the fun.

Now it depends on how the Lakers can overcome this difficulty. If they can't solve it well, I'm afraid the Lakers will be finished this year.

At the same time, the entire league also saw Richard's terrifying influence.

Now that Richard runs the Clippers, he actually has no sense of presence in the league. But as soon as this incident came out, the entire league immediately witnessed Richard's terrifying influence again.

Quietly, Richard didn't even show up and directly threw the Lakers into chaos.

This kind of deep and terrifying relationship between Richard and his disciples has not happened before in the entire history of the NBA, but not many...

In the minds of fans, perhaps only the relationship between Rodman and Chuck Daly can reach the level of West Lafayette.

Rodman respected Chuck’s father so much that he had his phone number tattooed on his body...

This is probably the reason why Rodman is not very interested in Jackson. Perhaps in his mind, the only person qualified to be his coach is Chuck Daly, the godfather of the Bad Boys.

Although Ben and the others are not crazy enough to be as crazy as Rodman, and they are not crazy enough to have Richard's number tattooed on their bodies, as long as it concerns Richard, they will never sit idly by and ignore it, and they will never treat it as invisible.

They also believe that no matter how unfairly they are treated by other teams, Richard will not sit idly by and never ignore it.

…

Everyone had a hunch that after the four core Lakers held a press conference, Richard would take action.

But obviously they guessed wrong, Richard hasn't made a move yet.

Just half an hour after the Lakers' press conference, the Trail Blazers held a press conference, and Paul Allen took the initiative in person.

The reporters saw with their own eyes that Paul Allen's face turned red and his whole body was shaking with anger.

What Jim Bass said is not a secret, and Paul Allen naturally knows it.

This made Paul Allen want to strangle Jim Bass with his own hands. He not only insulted Libit, but also insulted his beloved Tiana.

This is something Paul Allen would never tolerate.

"That son of a bitch from the Bass family, don't ever appear in front of me again!" Paul Allen took the microphone and roared loudly.

"You have a Laker under you, don't you know how much you weigh? In my eyes, your Bass family is nothing, no, not even shit. Whatever I throw out, it's better than you Bass." The family has a lot of assets!”

"Who gave you the courage to say that?"

"Come on, come on, aren't you a tyrannical son of a bitch? I declare here that the Lakers come to our place to play away games, and we, the Trail Blazers, will destroy one of them once. I will destroy them so that no one dares to join your Lakers!"

"As for the loss of Blazers players caused by this, I, Paul Allen, will bear double the responsibility!"

"Don't doubt what I say, the league fines you? Do I care about the fine?"

Paul Allen was totally going to blow up, and he just hit hard with hard moves.

He is not the kind of rigid person. He does things as he pleases and follows his own emotions.

Now his emotions were completely out of control, and he said words that made all the reporters at the scene dumbfounded.

The reporters are going crazy. Now it seems that it is not only the Bass family that should have a headache, but also the league management committee.

This matter is no longer just a friction between Richard and Jim Bass...

Everyone was frightened by Paul Allen's ferocity. No one expected that the angry Paul Allen could be so terrifying.

But it's normal to think about it. In Paul Allen's heart, Tiana is his biological daughter. When his biological daughter was scolded like this, Paul Allen was so angry that he lost his mind, which is completely understandable.

…

"Damn it!"

Inside the New York headquarters, Stern was rubbing his temples in his office, feeling like his head was going to explode.

Why does this happen at this time?

Couldn't Richard just calm down for a while and wait until he retires before causing trouble? ! Can I leave the NBA safely and without any regrets...

But this time, Stern also knew the whole story, so he didn't blame Richard much. He caught Jim Bass and cursed him in his heart.

Xiao Hua looked at him with a wry smile, feeling a little lucky in his heart.

Fortunately, Stern hasn't left yet. If Stern retired and faced this kind of thing alone, he really wouldn't know how to solve it...

This matter seems to be just a friction between Richard and Jim Bass, but in fact, how can it be so simple.

Richard's connections are so terrifying right now. It's conceivable that more and more people will be unwilling to be left alone...

How can he, a newly appointed CEO, solve this problem? I'm afraid I won't even be qualified to be a peacemaker in the end.

It's okay now, Stern hasn't retired yet, at least Xiao Hua doesn't have to face this matter alone.

…

Stern was silent for a long time, rubbed his head and sighed.

"Adam, you will be solely responsible for this matter."

"Consider this a test before you take over. I hope you can resolve this matter satisfactorily..."

Xiao Hua looked confused, "What?"

After working on it for a long time, do you still have to face this matter alone?

Stern really didn't want to continue to get involved in this muddy water, because he could have a premonition that this matter would not be solved that easily.

So he simply let Xiao Hua solve it. He knew that Xiao Hua and Richard had a pretty good relationship, and he expected that Richard would betray Xiao Hua to save face.

What Stern is most worried about right now is that the Buss family will play tricks on Richard, which will have a considerable impact on the interests of the entire NBA league.

Xiao Hua's face hurts, so he wants to solve it himself? What can you do to solve it yourself...

But Stern has said that this is a test before he takes over. Now he is chasing ducks to get on the shelf. If he doesn't succeed, he has to do it.

…

After leaving Stern's office, Xiao Hua directly held a meeting.

Paul Allen's words are undoubtedly quite excessive. It is impossible for the league management committee to make no movement at all...

Just an hour after Paul Allen's press conference ended, the league's fines came one after another.

The league fined Paul Allen $200,000.

Such a fine is naturally not painful for Paul Allen...

Xiao Hua also showed his tact in this matter, which not only maintained the dignity of the league management committee, but also did not offend Paul Allen too much.

If you really want to talk about it, Paul Allen's words would not be too much for the league to fine him one million US dollars. Now there is only a fine of two hundred thousand US dollars. It is obvious that Xiao Hua is letting things go...

…

Things happened one after another. The league's punishment had just been officially announced, and the Golden State Warriors immediately followed up to create news and held a press conference.

The relationship between Golden Dragon and Richard can definitely be described as wearing a pair of underpants. Now that Richard's father-in-law has come forward, how could he, Richard's underpants brother, not come forward.

"I believe you all know my relationship with Richard."

"Richard has always treated me as a family member, and I treat Richard as my own family. Tiana and Libit are all my family."

"Now that Jim Bass son of a bitch has insulted my family, what should I do?"

"I don't have the same ruthlessness as Paul, but I will definitely not lag behind in what I need to do."

"The Warriors will not make any trade with the Lakers. In addition, although I will not encourage Warriors players to do anything to the Lakers, if something like this happens, I think I will also double the compensation." The golden dragon said with a faint smile.

The two Western Conference teams went crazy. If it was the Eastern Conference team, it wouldn't matter...

After all, the Eastern and Western Conferences play each other less frequently, and there are only two games in a season.

In the same Western Conference, the Lakers have to play four games with these two teams respectively, which makes them eight games in total, which is almost one-tenth of the number of games in a season.

Facing two Western Conference teams that want to destroy them, the Lakers are obviously going to be in pain this time.

"By the way, I've prepared the check for two hundred thousand dollars..." At the end of the press conference, Golden Dragon said with a smile again.

…

It can be said that the situation is turbulent. Big news comes one after another. The fans' hearts have not calmed down today. From time to time, the media will send breaking news.

It can be said that Lakers fans are in quite a state of pain right now. How could such a good situation end up like this?

Originally, they were preparing to compete for the championship this season, but now Richard has left the Pirates. Although the Pirates are still strong, the Lakers' chance of winning is definitely higher than in the previous two seasons.

It can be said that this is the Lakers' best chance to win the championship...

But now that something has happened, competing for the championship? Let's fight for a Mao champion. Let's wait and see if we can escape this disaster.

In just half a day, the Lakers themselves were in civil strife. Two teams in the Western Conference wanted to destroy the Lakers. I'm afraid this matter has never reached its limit. Someone will definitely jump out to target the Lakers next.

Lakers fans are going crazy. When have the wealthy Lakers ever faced such a situation where everyone is shouting for help? !

Thinking of this, countless Lakers fans scolded Jim Buss. He is really an incompetent idiot. He must have been too full to cause such a thing.
