"What conditions are you going to make?" Richard asked, frowning.

Stern brought Xiao Hua to help him, which was tantamount to pie in the sky for Richard.

He knew very well that pie would not fall from the sky, and it was impossible for Stern to be doing without any purpose at this moment.

Stern laughed, Richard was just too smart......

"It's a bit of a condition, but it's actually for your good, to be precise, for the good of the alliance."

"If nothing else, I have a feeling that you'll probably stay with the Los Angeles Clippers until you retire." Stern spoke.

Richard nodded, Stern was not wrong, he was indeed preparing to die for the Los Angeles Clippers.

Because there is really no need to continue to change teams, the Clippers can be said to be the most attractive team in the entire league to Richard, and there is no one.

Making the Clippers the No. 1 giant in the league is by no means a matter of three or five years, or even ten or eight years, and may consume Richard's life.

In this case, it is naturally impossible to leave the Clippers, and Richard will be tied to the Clippers for the rest of his life.

"Yes, I do have the idea of an old clipper, but what does that have to do with your conditions? Don't you want me to die with the Clippers? Richard frowned, a little puzzled.

Stern waved his hand, "Of course we hope that you can end up with the Clippers, this league is the only one who can make the Clippers a giant like the Lakers, only you, no one else." Stern said with a smile.

"However, I hope you can restrain ......"

"It's not impossible to win the championship and even have a dynasty from time to time, but don't go too far, if the championship is the Clippers in the next ten years, do you think there will still be anyone watching the game?"

"A game without suspense is the most boring game."

Richard nodded, it turned out that Stern's condition was this.

Speaking of which, even if Stern doesn't mention this condition, Richard may have paid attention to it.

There are too many championships, such as the undisputed four consecutive championships like the Buccaneers, which actually hurt the league a lot.

At least this year's finals, the ratings are much lower than the previous finals, and it is foreseeable that if the Pirates continue to reach the finals this year and beat their opponents with a crushing attitude, I am afraid that there will be fewer fans watching the game.

Because there is no suspense at all, some fans like to watch the game of hanging the opponent, but the vast majority of fans still prefer the thrilling five-five opening situation.

Richard was originally preparing to go to the Clippers, pay attention to this aspect, and win the championship must still be won, but you have to pay attention to a skill.

"Don't worry, I'll pay attention to this, even if you don't say it, I'll be restrained." Richard nodded.

"Not only that, but when you Clippers rise, I know you can build a team that will beat the whole league, but try to leave a little suspense in the Finals." Stern continued.

Richard nodded, Stern's condition is to win less championships and more suspense, which is not too much of a condition, and Richard can agree to it.

He is in this alliance, and naturally hopes that the alliance can become more and more prosperous, so that he can have a place to play.

If one day the alliance fails, then Richard will have nothing to pursue in his life......

Richard naturally understands the truth of cold lips and teeth.

Now Richard is more like a fisherman, if he fishes with all his might, it will not benefit anyone, and the biggest impact may be Richard himself.

"Yes, I agreed to this condition." Richard readily agreed.

Stern and Xiao Hua looked at each other and smiled, it seems that Richard is not the kind of stunned young man, no matter how he says it, he can't make sense, at least for now, he happily agreed to the conditions he proposed.

Now that Richard is in his forties, it is naturally impossible for him to be stunned anymore.

The two Stern also knew Richard's temperament to do what he said, and now that he had agreed, there would be no remorse or disobedience.

"Okay, we'll help you get the Clippers as much as we can."

"By the way, I may retire in the next year or two, and Xiao Hua will be the president of the league in the future, I hope the two of you can work together well, strive to push the league to a higher height, not expect to become the number one sports league in North America, but also try to catch up with the NFL as much as possible." Stern didn't hide it from Richard either, and told him about his retirement plans.

Richard nodded again, and Stern's retirement plan was two years earlier than normal.

Thinking about Stern's dedication to the alliance over the past few decades, Richard couldn't help but be in awe.

It's not good to be unhappy with Stern, but Stern's professionalism is still quite respectful to Richard.

In terms of ability, means and pattern, Stern is definitely much better than Xiao Hua, which is why Richard has always disliked dealing with Stern.

Stern is too old and cunning......

Although his career has had many black spots, overall, he is a fairly successful president.

Successful to the point that no one has ever been successful before, Stern has not had a more successful president than him before, and it is estimated that there will be no better president than Stern after that......

Unless there is a president who actually leads the NBA league to overtake the NFL and become the number one sports league in North America.

But this doesn't seem very likely......

……

The next morning, Stern took Xiao Hua and Richard to Sterling's residence in Los Angeles.

Although the league hosts the Clippers at the moment, and the Clippers' profits Stern can't get a dime, the Clippers are still Sterling's property.

Now Stern is ready to clear the first hurdle for Richard......

This obstacle is also the only thing Stern can do for Richard, and as for Richard's rival Ballmer, it is not something that Stern can solve.

"What do you mean? Stern, why did you bring him here? After Stern saw Richard, his whole popularity trembled, and he couldn't wait to go up to Richard to fight him.

If it weren't for his age, he might not be able to do Richard, and he might have done this kind of thing......

"It's not interesting, this time I brought Richard, naturally there is something."

"Richard has the idea of buying the Clippers, what do you think we're here for?" Stern said with a gentle smile.

Hearing Stern's words, Sterling almost jumped up in anger.

I was so miserable by Richard, and now Richard is still buying the Clippers?!

For a moment, Sterling seemed to think of something......

Will the fact that he was cheated be part of Richard's plan to buy the Clippers?!

After all, the whole world knows that he has no idea of selling the Clippers, and in this case, Richard can only use some intrigue to frame himself.

Thinking of this, Sterling was even more angry.

"Impossible!"

"Die of this heart, the Clippers are still the property in my name, as long as I don't sell them to Richard, he won't want to get involved in the Clippers in his life!"

"Richard, don't think I don't know what you've done, you're dreaming, you'll never get the Clippers, I'll sell him to Ballmer!" Sterling yelled at the three Richards in an emotional manner.

Richard touched his nose in embarrassment, did Sterling know that he had cheated him?

To say that Richard cheated Sterling is actually true.

But to be precise, Richard can only say that he has pitted Sterling by half, because even if Richard doesn't do it, someone will do it, it's just a matter of time.

At the end of the day, the problem is Sterling himself, and if he is clean and has a good life with his old woman, he is either a racist or a white supremacist......

Then Sterling certainly doesn't have so much bullshit now.

In a word, flies don't bite eggs.

……

In the face of Sterling's roar, Richard just looked at Sterling with a light smile and didn't say anything, this old boy was miserable, it's good to let him vent at this moment.
