Chapter 399

Richard first held a post match press conference, and then they went back to their residence for a rest.

Tonight's game is a great win. The pioneers are very excited

In fact, at the beginning of this season, the Blazers knew that the Spurs would still not be their Blazers' opponents, only the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant joined the Lakers, so that the upper limit of the Lakers team has been increased a lot. No one can say whether the Blazers can play an advantage in the face of the Lakers.

But now that a game is over, both sides know their roots and know their roots. The pioneers are relieved.

If the Lakers want to win the Blazers, they must have the ability to break with the blazers on the basis that their inner core O'Neal can break free throws!

But if O'Neal's free throw is abnormal or 50% normal, the Lakers still can't get the Blazers!

It's reassuring for the pioneers. It seems that this year they will be the number one seed again.

Everyone sleeps peacefully, including Richard

The next morning, Richard read the morning paper, mainly to see what the Lakers said at the post game press conference.

It doesn't matter. It makes his heart tighten.

As Richard predicted, Lakers Phil Jackson and O'Neal, after attending the post game press conference, directly launched shameless shark cutting tactics.

Zen master's original words are "chop shark tactics, make basketball lose its original meaning, become a kind of free throw game, I think this is what fans don't want to see......"

"I think the league has to come up with rules as soon as possible to limit shark cutting tactics, otherwise, the game will become pretty ugly!"

……

Richard knows that the Lakers put forward this request, the League must be careful.

It mainly affects the fluency and viewing of the game. For the sake of interests, the league is likely to introduce rules in advance to limit shark cutting tactics.

Even Richard is sure that the League will inevitably introduce rules to restrict shark cutting tactics, but it is not sure whether the league is ready to take one step or step by step.

For the first time in history, the rule limiting shark cutting is the last two minutes of the fourth quarter and overtime. Shark cutting is not allowed

Later, it may be that the League felt that the restriction was not thorough enough and expanded the scope. In every game and the last two minutes of overtime, shark cutting was not allowed.

Of course, this tactic is absolutely impossible to completely eliminate the use of shark cutting tactics. It can only be said to reduce the use of shark cutting tactics.

For example, O'Neill, who can play in the first few minutes of each quarter, because the team didn't foul enough at that time, so it was not cost-effective to use the shark cutting tactics.

Then when the team has enough fouls, O'Neill can go off and rest, waiting for the last two minutes when he can't cut sharks.

In this way, a match can be played for more than 30 minutes.

Of course, if the opponent is ruthless, for example, don't worry about the team's foul times, use the cannon fodder directly to consume the team's foul times, and the shark cutting tactics can be used.

……

For example, in 2016, after the latest rules restricting shark cutting tactics were introduced, there will still be a situation in the League where players with poor free throws will be cut.

Even Xiao Hua said that this kind of thing can't be avoided completely, it can only be reduced as much as possible.

……

If they do, it's good news for the Lakers!

At that time, the Lakers might be able to break hands with the Blazers!

But Richard didn't worry much about it. At least this season, there's no need to worry about it. The introduction of a rule, especially the rules with a wide range of influence, is definitely not possible in the process of the season.

As early as the end of this season

So, this season, the Lakers don't want to enjoy this good rule.

……

Sure enough, the trailblazers just landed in Houston, and a press conference was immediately held in the league.

Xiao Hua was in charge of the press conference. The management committee gave each team of the League a shot of prevention first. They did have plans to introduce rules to restrict shark cutting tactics!

As soon as the press conference is over, the Lakers will be happy

O'Neill is even more happy!

But this rule really caused the dissatisfaction of many teams in the League!

To the surprise of many fans, the first manager to express dissatisfaction is not Richard, but spurs coach Popovich!

"I also hate the strategy of cutting sharks. It's a rather ugly strategy, but I will still use it to introduce rules limiting the strategy of cutting sharks, which will definitely damage competitive sports!"

"There is a lot of competition on the court. If you want to improve your competitiveness, we can't take advantage of the weakness of our opponents with the current rule!"

Popovich said this for no reason.He is a fanatical supporter of shark cutting tactics, basically at the same level as Richard!

In the Western semi-finals last season, the Spurs won the Lakers by chopping sharks, and then played against the Blazers.

If the strategy of chopping sharks is greatly limited, the Spurs may not be able to pass the Lakers, let alone the strength of the Lakers has greatly improved compared with last season!

This makes Popovich under a lot of pressure. If they can't do the Blazers and the Lakers, they won't be able to enter the Western Conference in the next few years at least!

How can we win the championship when we can't even touch the floor of the Western Conference?!

so Popovich was the first to express his dissatisfaction when the League said that it had plans to introduce a plan to restrict shark cutting tactics!

In his opinion, why did he come up with such a pitiful rule? It's hard to get a free throw cut?! Then why don't you think about how to improve your free throw?

He was quite dissatisfied with the obvious rule of favoring O'Neill.

Richard was very happy when he heard that Popovich had jumped out against the league's plan on shark cutting tactics

In fact, under normal circumstances, Popovich was quite dissatisfied when the League issued rules restricting shark cutting.

Now, because Richard is annoying the Lakers, and the league can't see any more, Popovich still opposes the rules of limiting shark cutting in advance.

Not only Popovich, but Larry Bird in the East jumped out to express his dissatisfaction!

He didn't say that because he had a good relationship with Richard, he jumped out to help Richard speak. The main reason is that if the League had such rules, their walkers would also be victims!

The Pacers now rank first in the East, and have a chance to reach the finals this season!

What if the Blazers lose to the Lakers? What if the Lakers and Pacers meet in the finals?!

Then Larry Bird will be able to use the strategy of chopping sharks. Maybe he can win the championship with the strategy of chopping sharks!

Now the league has come out abruptly to introduce the rule of "bullshit", which Larry Bird naturally doesn't want to do. This has harmed his potential interests!

Philadelphia 76ers coach Rick Carlisle also expressed dissatisfaction, he jumped out of the same reason as Larry Bird, of course, also has the meaning of supporting Richard.

……

Driven by these people, nearly half of the league's managers and management expressed their dissatisfaction.

On the contrary, Richard, the biggest bitter master of this matter, had no movement.

Richard knew that he could not act rashly in such a moment

If he jumped out against stern, stern might be able to jump out of the wall.

For example, this season all star weekend, directly began to use the rules that limit the strategy of cutting sharks!

There is no doubt that Stern can do such a thing in a rage

So Richard pretended that he didn't know anything at this moment. Anyway, he was very clear. In fact, he didn't use any eggs against it. This thing would come out sooner or later.

……

The second game of the Blazers' three games away is against Houston Rockets.

The rocket has fallen completely!

Under normal circumstances, in fact, the rocket made a deal with the trailblazers. They sold the Pippen to the trailblazers

It can also be seen from this that it is true that pioneers are stupid and have more money!

Under normal circumstances, this season the Blazers accepted two cancer contracts, one is the fat Kemp who can't touch the basket, the other is Pippen's contract.

But now Richard is in charge of the trailblazers, these two contracts must be one cannot enter!

The trailblazers don't want the chips given by other teams. They are not satisfied. They can only keep Pippen in their hands in the end

Now the Rockets, the team has become a mess, three parties fighting!

Francis, Pippen and Buckley, the top three of this year's list, are all in a row!

Francis feels that he should be the foundation stone of the rocket team. You old guys shouldn't give yourself a little respect for the future boss?!

But Olajuwon, Barkley and Pippen are all superstars in the stable Hall of fame. Who cares about a kid who doesn't have all the hair? They don't take Francis seriously at all.

Barkley and Pippen were the same bullshit last season, from last season to this season.

It's a mess.

This season the Rockets just started to rot

Against the Rockets in this game, the Blazers easily won, the Rockets simply do not want to win.

Now they are also aware of the reality. At present, Western China is such a ghost. These three old folks want to win the championship?!

It's impossible

……

After winning the Rockets game, the NBA announced the start of the first round of all star voting for the new season.

After a year of silence, the all star game is finally back to normal!This year, Richard is unable to lead the Western All Star team, but he is quite concerned about the selection of his players.

If a team wants to have top-level cohesion, it must be the more honor at hand, the better!

At present, there is only one xiao'ao in the trailblazer team who has been selected as an all star. If only xiao'ao has been selected as an all star this season, Richard will not be satisfied.

What makes Richard's egg ache is that China has not yet access to the fans' voting entrance. At first, Richard planned to hold a high voice and cheer for his players in China.

Now it seems that we have to wait for two years

……

McGrady signed up for this year's all star dunk contest.

Ginobili and Nowitzki both qualified for this year's three-point competition.

In terms of skills, Mobley signed up for the competition

As for the rookie game, the Blazers now have three freshmen, Kirilenko, Ginobili and Artest

All three of them are qualified for the rookie challenge.

Trailblazer's participation in this all star weekend is still good. Now Richard will see how many players are selected in the all star game!

……

In the blink of an eye, in January, the results of the first round of voting were hot.

To Richard's surprise, the first round ticket king in the East was vincat!

He got 50000 more votes in the first round than Iverson!

But it's also normal to think about it. Carter's back is a whole maple leaf country. It's not easy to have such a powerful new swinger, Fengwei. It's easy to imagine how popular he is.

……

The top ten in the first round of the eastern ballots are Carter, Iverson, monen, Grant Hill, Wang Zhizhi, maniac, Eddie Jones, Alan Houston, Marbury and Ray Allen

Judging from the All-Star voting in the East, the East is really down.

Half of the players in the top ten are rookies, and the selected veterans are far inferior to the Western veterans in terms of League status.

As for the western side, it seems that the luxury is much more than that of the eastern side.

Kobe Bryant, O'Neal, O'Neal, Duncan, Garnett, glove Peyton, Big Ben, Kidd, Chris Webber, Pippen!

The competition in the west is too fierce

Among the top ten players, there are six inside players. It's horrible!

Xiao'ao and Big Ben are both in the top ten of the vote, which makes Richard a little relieved and acceptable

And this is just the first round of voting results, the final all star list is somewhat different.

Generally speaking, there are 12 all stars in the East and West, including 2 centers, 5 forwards, and then 5 guards!

Xiao'ao is running as a center this season, while Big Ben is a striker.

It's quite astonishing that Nowitzki and Robinson were both persuaded by Richard to run as players in the future

The two are seven foot tall and 208 cm tall. When the fans see the two goods appear in the voting list of backcourt players, they can't help crying and laughing.

These two are also backcourt players

However, I can't find out the problem. The position of these two people in the trailblazer is really the backcourt. It seems that they can't find the problem completely when they sign up for the backcourt!

……

Soon the results of the second round of balloting came out.

A total of ten starting all star lists from the East and the West are in full swing!

What makes Richard feel a bit awkward is that this time, none of the trailblazers has been selected as the all star starter, mainly because xiao'ao is running as a center. What he needs to compete directly is big O'Neal. Naturally, he can't compete

Eastern all star starting, Carter, Iverson, monen, Eddie Jones and Grant Hill.

On the western side of the starting list is O'Neal, Duncan, Garnett, Kobe Bryant and Kidd!

Look at the All-Star starting lineup in the west, which is almost the most luxurious All-Star starting lineup in NBA history

The first center in history, the second point guard in history and the two top three forwards in history, even Kidd, who is the lowest in status, must be able to rank in the top ten point guards in history.

……

Even Richard is boasting that he is witnessing the best years of NBA!

Although the Blazers have no players in the starting line-up, Richard is not worried

Xiao'ao is now the top three center in the league. If he doesn't make it to the all star, it's funny!

In this league, O'Neill is the first center naturally!

As for admiral, big dream and gorilla, all three have retired from the stage of the times.

The only one who can break the wrist with xiao'ao is the heat's center, Mo Ning!So xiao'ao is the top three center of the League!

As for Big Ben, he has a good chance of being an all star in the front court of the West.

So Richard is not worried about the selection of xiao'ao and Big Ben. He is more concerned about whether Nowitzki and Robinson can be selected!

In fact, both of them have good votes, ranking fourth and sixth in the backcourt of the western all star.

In addition to the five starters voted by the fans, the remaining seven players were voted by the coaches of all teams in the league, including the head coach and the assistants.

Of course, you can't vote for your own players

Coaches can vote for their favorite players, but they usually don't go too far. They choose one of the top players.

Richard didn't even think about it. He picked up the phone and started shaking people.

Larry Bird, Doug rivers, Wilkins, Carlisle, Pitino, buchcat, Lambert, George Carr, Adelman, Sanders

Richard was not polite at all. He went directly to all the coaches who had a good relationship with him and asked them to help him vote for Nowitzki and Robinson.

For his own players, Richard has pulled his face down completely this time.

As for Richard's request, all parties agreed without saying anything.

It's not a big deal in itself. Besides, we can't choose our own players. Since Richard wants this vote, it's over

When the official list of all stars came out, fans all over the world found that this year's trailblazer is a super harvest!

Although they don't have an all-star starter, they have up to four players in the All-Star team!

This directly broke the team history record of the trailblazers

In the history of trailblazers, at most two people have been selected as all stars, but this year, four people have been selected directly, which has doubled directly!

Richard is relieved. He doesn't want the trailblazer players to recreate the tragedy of later trailblazer masters Lillard

Paul's all star floor, Lillard's all star floor.

Although these two people also touch the floor they dream of in the future

……

Xiao'ao and Big Ben are all stars. All fans can accept them.

Even Robinson was selected as an all star, in fact, it can be accepted. After all, Robinson was an all star in 93-94 season before Richard came to pioneer.

It's just that Nowitzki's selection is a little surprising

To know that Nowitzki in the Western backcourt vote, only ranked sixth, generally speaking, unless someone is injured and unable to play, otherwise, Nowitzki is difficult to get the chance to be an all star.

But now the magic has happened, and Nowitzki has been chosen.

Robinson was fourth in the Western backcourt, with Kobe, Kidd and Peyton in the top three!

Stockton is fifth

In this way, Nowitzki directly knocked out Stockton and was included in the all star list.

"Ridiculous!"

"It's ridiculous! I don't know why the NBA can tolerate letting a seven foot man run as an all star in the future! "

"What's more, the seven foot man is not as popular as Stockton in terms of data and popularity. What's his qualification for all star?"

Sir Alex Sloan is in the frying pan!

Last season, Stockton didn't make it to the All-Star team. Last season, the All-Star team didn't play. In fact, this season, he has contacted the coaches of several teams and asked them to help vote for Stockton.

The winning thing is that he killed Cheng Yaojin in a good way. Stockton was directly squeezed out by Nowitzki!

in this way, Stockton has not been an all star for some years!

It's not the best way for Sloan. Malone also failed to be an all star this year!

The West's five foregrounds are Duncan, Garnett, Big Ben, Pippen and Chris Webber!

This makes Sloane crazy!

Directly in the post match press conference, in the face of reporters expressed their dissatisfaction

Richard almost didn't laugh to death. He could see that the jazz was flat, which was quite a pleasant feeling.

If Sloan didn't name him, Richard would be too lazy to talk to the dying Jazz team.

But now Sloan even points out Nowitzki, then Richard can't do it.

He has to go out and tear himself
