The contracts of the four newcomers who joined the team this year have all been signed, but there is something wrong with Oden.

Oden has a lot of injuries at the moment, in addition to the old wrist injury, he also has some problems under the knee right now.

Under normal circumstances, the Trail Blazers let Auden recover from his injury in his first season, but Richard had no intention of doing so.

He is going to directly let Auden use the intermediate injury scroll to heal his injury, as for whether he can heal the old injury on his wrist, it depends on Auden's luck.

Even if the Intermediate Injury Scroll didn't heal Oden's old wrist injury, Richard still had a group healing skill that he could use at the beginning of the season......

If neither of these measures worked, Richard would have one last insurance policy at hand, and that was to be as good as ever.

This intact Dan is too precious, Richard has been coaching in the league for more than ten years, and he only got one, and before giving it to Auden, he must first understand Auden's character.

In case such a precious thing was given to the white-eyed wolf, Richard would probably faint.

……

Oden's long and short legs will not affect his strength, but will make him suffer a greater risk of injury, so there is no need for Richard to directly use Oden's intact Dan at the moment.

……

On September 20, it was less than half a month before the start of the new season.

Tomorrow Richard will give his players a break for 10 days and 8 days to prepare for the new season.

Before the holiday, Richard talked to this year's rookies one by one.

The first to be found was Andre Ingram, who is actually quite old, he participated in the draft after four years of college, and is now 22 years old.

After meeting Richard, Ingram's face was full of gratitude, he was well aware of his draft prospects, although he signed up for the draft, but he belonged to the kind of fringe rookie who had no sense of presence, and hundreds of players like him appeared in the NCAA every year.

Now Richard won himself directly in the draft without trying out himself, although it was only a second-round 29th pick, but Ingram was also full of gratitude, at least Richard gave him a chance to prove himself.

And this Pirates team is a champion team, as long as their performance is a little more reliable, then they don't have to worry about finding a home.

Players in the championship team, in fact, it is not difficult to find a job in the league, as long as they don't ask too high a price, there are still many teams willing to sign them, even if it is just a good luck, it is not bad to sign a championship player with a base salary.

"Do a good job, man, maybe you're not as talented as those geniuses, but as long as you can persevere, I'm sure the NBA will have your place." Richard patted the young Ingram and smiled.

In his previous life, he had seen Ingram play for the Lakers, when Ingram was 32 years old, but he was already gray-haired, and he looked really inspirational.

In this life, he used a second-round pick with the 29th pick to give Ingram a chance to be reborn.

Richard doesn't know exactly what Ingram can do in the future, but it won't be worse than normal.

After Ingram left, Gasol Jr. was called into Richard's office again.

Xiao Jia's brother Da Jia is already one of the best interior players in the league at the moment, so Xiao Jia has high expectations for himself, he doesn't want to surpass his brother, but he can't be embarrassed by anything.

After Dajia was selected by the Grizzlies, he brought the whole family to the United States, and even provided for Xiaojia to go to school, and the relationship between the brothers was quite good.

"Mark, your talent is no worse than your brother's, I know that very well." Richard said with a smile at Xiao Jia.

"However, your current technology still needs to be precipitated for two years, I hope that in these two years, you can endure loneliness, improve your level in a solid manner, and don't be too ambitious."

Richard was also afraid that Xiao Jia would be stimulated by Da Jia, and some lofty ideas were born in his heart.

At least for the next two years, it is unlikely that Jr. will have much playing time on the Pirates, averaging between 15 and 20 minutes per game at most.

"Don't worry, coach, I'll try."

'Darko is very strong, he's a role model for me and I'm going to try to chase him.' Xiao Jia said sincerely to Richard.

Xiaojia's age is actually more embarrassing, he is even half a year older than Milicic......

But Milicic is already a veteran of the league, after all, this kid has been playing in the league for four years!

And Xiao Jia is a new melon egg who has never played a game in the NBA.

Xiaojia is really convinced of Milicic, the other party is half a year younger than him, but he is already a new FMVP, and he feels not ashamed to play a substitute for such a player.

Besides, if you take 10,000 steps back, no matter which team you put on, you must start from the bench, and listen to Richard's meaning, you will be the chief substitute for Milicic, and this treatment is already quite satisfactory to Xiaojia.

Richard looked at Xiao Jia with satisfaction, and Xiao Jia gave Richard a very reliable feeling.

After sending Xiao Jia away, Richard called Sun Yue directly.

This kid actually gave Richard a bit of a headache, because he couldn't tell which direction Sun Yue would develop now.

Sun Yue's physical fitness is good, but this good is only compared to the domestic outside line, compared to the NBA outside players with explosive physical fitness, Sun Yue's body is not enough at all.

Maybe his physicality would be more appropriate to compare with those white small forwards.

But Richard didn't think for a while that there were any white small forward players who were suitable as Sun Yue's template.

Larry Bird? Let's wash and sleep......

Anyway, cultivating Sun Yue is a long-term job, and it is definitely unlikely to have too good results in the short term, so Richard simply put this matter aside and study it according to Sun Yue's on-field performance in the future.

Sun Yue knocked on the door, and after hearing Richard's voice letting him in, he shrunk his head and entered Richard's office.

Richard looked tangled, and he didn't know what the hell it was, Sun Yue gave him a strange feeling.

Wretched......

The whole body is full of obscene atmosphere, and I don't know how this kid developed this obscene temperament.

Sun Yue's appearance is very high, and he can be said to be top-notch in the Chinese basketball world, otherwise, his white rich and beautiful daughter-in-law may not be able to knock him.

But in terms of temperament, it doesn't match the appearance, which makes Richard have an indescribable weird feeling.

It stands to reason that it shouldn't, Sun Yue's hometown is Cangzhou, Hebei, which is the hometown of martial arts famous throughout the country.

"Straighten up, don't keep shrinking, it's the same as if you just came back from a labor camp." Richard patted the table and said to Sun Yue with a serious face.

Sun Yue immediately straightened his waist and looked at Richard with a look of fear.

"Now that you are playing abroad, you have to pay attention to every move, regardless of whether your strength is strong or not, you have to mention it to me, don't be like a big smoker."

"Coach, I've not felt well for the past two days...... Sun Yue said hesitantly, explaining to himself.

"Uncomfortable?" Richard looked at Sun Yue fixedly, and sure enough, Sun Yue's face was a little pale, and there was fine sweat on his forehead, which looked like he had a fever.

"Let's go to the team doctor to take a look, you must pay attention to your body." Richard nodded and asked Sun Yue to hurry up and find the team doctor to take a look.

Sun Yue went to find the team doctor, and Richard found Auden again.

In fact, talking to the newcomer today, Auden is the focus of the focus.

For Auden, Richard definitely doesn't know as much about him as O'Neal and Kobe, mainly because of what these people have done and what they have said, Richard knows a lot in his previous life, and he can generally see their character and character.

And Oden didn't have much news, and even if there was news, most of it was the media lamenting that his talent was delayed by injury.

Taking advantage of today's opportunity, Richard is ready to get to know Auden.

Auden walked into Richard's office with a somewhat blank expression.

Auden's appearance can really be said to be indescribable, he is obviously twenty years old, but he has a fifty-year-old face.

The last champion with this kind of old appearance was James......

The next one is Ewing the Gorilla.

Richard wondered if Oden would also be given an orangutan nickname if he played it later, after all, the first two were not spared, so what would Oden's nickname be at that time? Three generations of orangutans?
