After some arrangement, almost half a month passed......

All-Star Weekend also started as scheduled.

There will be no training camp for any team this weekend, which means that the players will be given a holiday, and many players will also go to the All-Star venue to watch the game.

This year's All-Star Games are held in Cleveland, the home of the Cavaliers.

Richard arrived in Cleveland the day before the game, and he came to Cleveland this time as a pure fan, just to enjoy the All-Star Game.

Of course, in addition to enjoying the game, Richard has a business to tackle this All-Star Weekend.

On Friday night, there were two games, one for the Masters and the other for the Rookies.

There was nothing to see in the Masters, and Richard didn't watch it at all......

As for the rookie game, Richard naturally wanted to watch it live, but it didn't cost money, he entered as a family member of the player......

The head coach of the Eastern Rookie League is Cardinal Auerbach, and the Western coach is Reed Holzman, two very old old bishops.

Originally, some fans in the league called for Richard to lead the rookie challenge......

After all, on this western side, Richard's disciples account for more than half.

But the league didn't know if it didn't pay attention to this call, or if it was afraid that Richard would lead the team to cause trouble in the All-Star, so it didn't respond at all.

This makes Richard a little dissatisfied, if the league really listens to the opinions of fans, then it is he Richard who sits in Holzman's position today......

However, this dissatisfaction is only fleeting, after all, the small rookie game is really not worth mentioning.

Richard's goal is to become the coach of the All-Star Game!

This requires Richard to lead the team to the top of the Western Conference record, after all, the All-Star head coach is the coach of the team with the best record in the division......

……

The game is not too intense, after all, the nature of All-Star Weekend itself is entertainment!

In addition, most of these sixteen players are very familiar, and the two sides have not played fire, and it looks like they have gone through the motions......

In the end, Iverson led the East to win the rookie game, and he was also named the MVP of the rookie challenge with 22 points and 11 assists.

In the post-game award session, Iverson rushed directly to the audience with the trophy in his hand.

Not only that, but five players including Big Ben in the West also hugged Iverson and walked towards the audience......

What kind of situation is this that made the fans at the scene stunned?!

Iverson is this going to share his joy with the fans? As if this statement could explain why he rushed to the audience......

But what do you five Western players mean by surrounding Iverson?

Iverson is an Eastern player, and other Eastern players have won the MVP, why are you five Western players grinning like honey......

But soon, the fans' doubts were solved.

There was a person standing up in the front row of the audience, who was not Richard.

"Coach, this is my first MVP!" Iverson's face was full of excitement.

Richard patted Iverson on the shoulder, "Yes, man, I'm sure this isn't your last MVP trophy......"

"Haha, Allen, a little rookie MVP, you're too embarrassed to show off to a coach......" Big Ben grinned.

Miller hurriedly said: "Ben, you must not be able to eat grapes, saying that grapes are sour, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat!" ”

"It's not uncommon for me to eat such a small amount of meat, when will I get the rebounding king, the block king and the DPOY, I will find the coach to celebrate!"

Several players burst into laughter......

Among the six players, Xiao Ao and Kobe Bryant are not West Lafayette players, but they are also extremely convinced of Big Ben's captain, and they have basically become Big Ben's little followers now......

With a captain like Big Ben here, the two of them have just grown up, and they have a sense of security on the field.

No matter what happens, they know that Big Ben will definitely be the first to step up.

Little O'Neal looked enviously at the four of them who were joking with each other, he now regretted why he entered the league so early, if he had chosen to join Purdue University, then now he probably has such a group of good brothers......

At the beginning, Purdue University issued an invitation to him, but O'Neal Jr. had already made up his mind to be drafted, so he missed the opportunity to enter Purdue University.

Kobe Bryant is actually quite envious, but this person has a hard mouth, even if he is envious in his heart, he still has an indifferent expression on his face.

For Richard, the current Kobe Bryant is no longer so resistant, but let him lick his face and smile in front of Richard every day, then he can't kill him......

Kobe Bryant was very puzzled before, why would a demon like Richard, a group of young players like West Lafayette, support Richard so much?!

No matter what happens to Richard's side, the first to stand up in support of Richard will always be these Silafayette players.

Now Kobe Bryant generally understands something......

Richard is a coach who really thinks about the players, and he can give up a lot of things for the players, such as the game against the Bulls, Richard knows very well that the heavy defeat to the Bulls, plus letting a newcomer shoot so many times, will put him under huge public opinion pressure.

Kobe Bryant is also well aware of this......

But Richard did it in the end, without any mud and water, not even a trace of hesitation!

With such a head coach, even if Kobe Bryant is young, he knows that this is a good person with a knife mouth and a tofu heart.

"You two boys, work hard!"

"In the future, I hope that your strength will be recognized by all our West Lafayette players, and you will have the opportunity to join us!"

Big Ben and Iverson said with a smile to Ao and Kobe.

They knew that these two were newcomers personally selected by Richard, and eighty percent of them were going to become West Lafayette players in the future, and they said this at this moment completely to tease these two newcomers.

Little O'Neill looked longing!

Join West Lafayette?! Become the brother of these proud sons?!

No matter what happens on the pitch, there is always someone behind you!

Just thinking about it makes little O'Neill excited!

And Kobe Bryant is obviously not an honest little O'Neal, and when he heard this, he immediately stiffened his neck......

"You're no better than me! My strength is no worse than yours! ”

"I don't need your permission to join West Lafayette!"

"Besides, I don't want to ...... either"

"In short, my strength is no worse than you!"

Bryant originally wanted to shout that he didn't want to join Silafayette, but he suddenly changed his tune......

It's easy to say, but it's hard to take it back.

What if this group of people really doesn't let themselves join West Lafayette because of their own words? So what do you do......

Do you want to join when the time comes? Isn't that really fragrant......

No rookie player would give up the opportunity to join a group like West Lafayette.

Because it seems like there are so many benefits to joining this group......

Especially for players like Kobe Bryant who participated in the draft as a high school student, they need such a group even more!

Because they don't have NCAA alumni, alumni relationships are known to be pretty good connections in the NBA......

A high school player like Kobe Bryant obviously doesn't have such connections, so the opportunity to join West Lafayette is even more precious to him!
