The pirates beat Milwaukee Bucks 108-91 in the opening game.
Richard was quite satisfied with the outcome of the war.
However, in the future, Richard is not prepared to let Monin play for too long, unless it is a certain time.
Training new players is still the top priority of Richard's next work. If a team wants to rise from a poverty-stricken situation, there is no way out without training new players.
Next year's 2007 draft conference, Richard wanted Oden extremely.
This year there is a top in the center, but next year's retirement?
Although Valerio is good, he is not the top player in the center position.
So, compared with Durant, Richard wants center Oden more.
No one is better than Durant, but the gap is far less than that between Valerio and Oden.
Of course, here's Oden, who is in full health and completely free from injury and disease.
What's more, Richard would like to see what kind of growth he can achieve without the ups and downs of the players who are highly praised by the media.
Before that, the players Richard chose were those who had achieved success under normal circumstances.
Even Roy has played well in the League for several years.
But Oden was even worse. He left few marks in the league.
This made Richard's heart itch even harder. If Oden was really cultivated, his sense of achievement would definitely explode.
However, Oden is the number one scholar. It's not so easy for Richard to get it
If the bucks are lucky enough for the first round, they may be able to draw the first round straight.
If not, Richard will have to think about something.
……
After the game, Richard recruited Rondo and Paul.
Paul got 17 points, 5 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 steals tonight, and scored 59 points.
Looking at Paul's expression, he is quite satisfied with his performance tonight, mainly because there are two data stealers
One snatch is equal to five points, and two snatches are ten points directly.
"Chris, you got 59 points tonight. Is that ok?" Richard took out his notebook and recorded Paul's points.
Paul nodded.
"Last night Kearns reminded me that your bet may cause you to brush the data and affect the team's win."
"He advised me to halve points if I lost the game under the same rules."
"I don't know. Do you think this plan is fair or unfair?" Richard looked at them and said.
The two nodded in succession, which is naturally fair. Both of them are players who are in pursuit of victory. They are really afraid that the other side will lose the game by any means for the sake of data.
Now that there is such a new plan, both of them are in favor of it.
In Paul's previous month, there were 15 games.
There are 16 games in Rondo's schedule in the next month, of course, it is impossible for Rondo to play one game. At that time, the score must still be calculated in the first 15 games.
In these two months, the opponent's strength is equal, and there is not a big gap.
……
In the second game, the pirate team's opponent was a weak chicken, the Atlanta eagles.
Eagle is the real tank team, anyway, for so many years, it has been rotten and never stopped.
The point is that they didn't show any decent players
Of course, it may be that they don't want to put on a bad show, but they are too weak to make a decent record.
In this game against the eagles, the pirate team really explained what is abusive food.
At the end of the three quarters, the Hawks have collapsed. Chris Paul, after playing for about 35 minutes, was directly replaced by Richard.
Tonight's exposure, the data explosion made Rondo feel stressed.
24 points, 4 rebounds, 17 assists, 4 steals!
Tonight's game alone, Paul scored 86 points, far more than 59 in the opening game!
If Paul can keep this earning rate, Rondo doesn't feel he has a chance to win the bet at all.
……
However, the following third game strengthened Rondo's confidence, because Paul's performance in this game was not outstanding. What's more, the pirate team also lost
The opponent is the East famous fish belly Raptor, but this year's Raptor looks a little different.
Their two insiders, a bosh and a bagnani, are not traditional types of insiders.
As a result, the two suddenly broke out tonight. Bagnani scored three of four points, scored 23 points, and Bosh scored 34.If Maureen was there, Richard estimated that their pirate team would win even if they broke out inside the other two.
But the key is that monen has been "snowed" now.
Richard didn't want the pirate team to be the biggest threat.
Not afraid of thieves, but afraid of thieves thinking
If any team breaks down and Maureen is injured, Richard has no place to reason.
Paul's game is 15 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 1 steals. He normally gets 38 points. As a result, he only gets 19 points because of the loss.
It's pretty miserable. I got 86 in the game and 19 in the game. The gap is not so big.
Rondo is relieved. He has hope to surpass Paul
……
At present, this season, Richard is sure to aim to be the first in the East, and strive for the qualification of all star team leader.
There are already five super huge suits, and we will try to get another one this year.
But before that, Richard had one more thing to do.
That is to extend Milicic's contract ahead of time.
This year is the fourth year for Milicic to enter the league, the last year of his four-year rookie contract.
Milicic has been gradually cultivated by Richard into an all-around type of front court big core. Such a high-quality player, Richard is bound to die in his hands.
This season, the pirate team has the same salary space as other teams, which is more than $53 million.
The salary space has always been a headache for Richard.
Because Richard is constantly recruiting new players, and these new players are very strong players. When their rookie contract expires, Richard must give them a big contract.
Maybe in the past few years, it's OK to say that Richard can still turn around, but as more and more new signers need to sign, the team's salary space is not enough.
Of course, he can pay high luxury tax to sign as many strong new players as possible, but now Richard is also the boss, he has to consider the team's income and expenditure.
Although Richard doesn't care much about the team's profits, since he chose this career, he has been losing money. What's the matter
Richard is now worried about what kind of salary contract he should give Milicic.
