Chapter 708: Lipbit, a headache
"Lee, I heard the Trail Blazers are selling Jermaine?" Stevens asked Richard.
Richard nodded, and now it's no secret that the Trail Blazers are privately contacting teams in the league to sell Xiao O.
It's just that the Clippers didn't have the chips they wanted, so they didn't contact the Clippers.
"Time flies, more than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye, and I think Jermaine was just a seventeen-year-old kid, ......," Stevens let out a long sigh.
Richard smiled and patted Stevens on the shoulder, "Why do you look old-fashioned?" I think you were just a kid in your early twenties, and in the blink of an eye, you're middle-aged now. ”
"I haven't been able to do what I want for so many years, and you should be able to relate to my pain." Stevens said with a wry smile and shook his head.
"It's only temporary, man, maybe you can get better development after changing teams."
When Richard bought the Warriors by Huang Tianlong before, he was actually preparing to let the Golden Dragon recruit Stevens to coach the Warriors.
It's just that the current head coach of the Warriors is Nelson Sr., and it is reasonable that Richard can't recommend that the Golden Dragon fire Nelson Sr.
Nelson Sr. led the Warriors to create the Black Eight Miracle, and he is the league's top veteran head coach, if the Golden Dragon fires Nelson Sr., I am afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among the home team fans.
But Nelson Sr. may not be in the head coach position for long, and he may return to Mavericks as a management manager in another year or two.
It's not too late to let Stevens coach the Warriors.
"I don't want to leave the Clippers at all, I've put a lot of effort into them, and I'm not willing to leave until I make a difference." Stevens said with a puzzled face.
Richard has some sympathy for Stevens, the Clippers are a big hole, and now Stevens is stuck in a big hole and can't extricate himself.
In fact, judging from Stevens' coaching performance over the years, if he is willing to leave the Clippers, there will be teams extending an olive branch to him immediately, and he may resign today and take office in other teams tomorrow.
But the key is that Stevens is reluctant to leave the Clippers, he has put a lot of effort into this team, and it is not too much to say that he has worked hard.
Just let him leave without achieving anything, he was naturally unwilling.
"Lee, what do you think of Sterling's boss?" Stevens asked abruptly.
Richard was also stunned, Stevens asked this question definitely not without purpose, could it be that this old guy Sterling already has racist remarks now?
It's normal to think about it, racism didn't happen in a day or two, maybe Sterling has been racist for countless years.
Stevens is a purebred white man, his father is a well-known surgeon and plastic surgeon, and he definitely belongs to the upper class of the old United States, so Sterling naturally regards Stevens as a kind of person, and it is quite normal to show some racist remarks from time to time.
……
"I don't have a lot of contact, but I don't really like this old guy very much." Richard didn't ask much, just said what he thought of Sterling.
Stevens nodded, sighing again.
Richard watched Stevens' performance and wondered if he should let Stevens bring a listening device and get some racist remarks about Sterling.
In this way, as long as Richard gets the recordings of these remarks and then finds a hidden channel to publish them, Sterling can be doomed immediately.
However, Richard dispelled this idea in an instant, he had been in contact with Stevens for more than ten years, Stevens was a real decent gentleman, and it was impossible for him to do such a thing.
Even if he was willing to do such a thing, Richard would not have let him do it, and when the recording was released, Stevens would become the biggest suspect in the recording, and Stevens' reputation would be ruined.
Richard could not have made Stevens suffer such reputational damage.
In a circle, reputation is a very important thing, a despicable villain who loves to inform, which team owner dares to reuse?
Engaging in a wave of Sterling, if Richard comes to do it, it is actually a bit unkind, but Richard has no sense of guilt, and Sterling himself cannot escape this ending, and he can only be regarded as ending Sterling's NBA boss career ahead of schedule.
It's just that Richard doesn't want Stevens to do this, and he is not in a hurry, and the only thing he needs to do next is to wait patiently.
It will not be more than 2014 at the latest, and now it will be 2009, less than five years, and Richard still has this patience.
And not letting Stevens touch this matter does not mean that Richard will not do anything to Sterling when he encounters a suitable opportunity in the future, and if there is a suitable opportunity, Richard will definitely not be relenting.
Some people may sympathize with Sterling's plight, but Sterling is not worthy of sympathy, and he is essentially a white supremacist......
Sterling himself was actually Jewish, and later changed himself to a standard white name.
This kind of strange and twisted person, if Richard had a chance to touch him, it would be strange if he could keep him......
……
After this game against the Clippers, Richard led the team back to Charlotte.
With a few games left in the season, Richard simply put fringe players such as Sun Yue and Ingram in the starting lineup to free up some time for the main players to recuperate.
As for the team's loss, Richard would have liked to lose, and this season he has already broken the record of the previous season and can get a good system reward.
If you lose next, you can leave some leeway for next season, and Richard will get some rewards next season.
……
After returning to Charlotte, Richard asked Raheem to lead the team for a few days in his place, and he had to take advantage of this time to have a good rest.
Richard is now interested in letting Raheem learn more from his on-the-spot coaching experience, and strive to become the head coach in the future.
Among the players who have just started to enter the league, Rahim has the talent and interest to embark on a coaching path, and no one else can.
Either he is not interested in coaching, or he has no talent for coaching like Big Ben, Raheem is one of the West Lafayette players who is both talented and interested in coaching, and Richard naturally wants to help out.
……
During the few days off, Richard stayed at home with Tiana and the children, and Tiana's solitude was getting bigger and bigger, and she was about to give birth.
For this little princess who is about to be born, the family is looking forward to it, and the three boys are looking forward to the birth of their sister every day after hearing that they are about to have a sister.
Tiana now has a big belly, Richard is usually very busy, and the three boys are now unattended, and they are becoming more and more lawless.
"Honey, yesterday Bit's teacher called, and this guy was scaring other children at school again." Tiana snuggled into Richard's arms and said with a headache.
Richard also had a headache when he heard this......
This kid is not the kind of bad boy, but he is too big, and he looks a little fierce, even if he doesn't speak, the pestle is there, which makes the other children tremble.
The teacher in the early education class was also quite helpless, so he could only call his parents to complain, and Richard was even more helpless, what could he do with Libit, after all, Libit did not make a mistake.
"Hey, who is this kid with, when he grows up, he will pay it back, I'm afraid that he won't dare to stand within three meters of him." Richard said with a wry smile.
"Nonsense, Bit's personality is actually very good, but he doesn't like to talk much, maybe he thinks the people around him are too naïve, right?" Tiana said with a smile.
Richard was speechless, a four-year-old fart kid actually thought that the children around him were too naïve, it was really ......
The second boy and the youngest Li Jin are not as special as the eldest brother, and they get along quite happily with the children around them.
Especially Li Jin, in the early education class, mingles with all the children, and everyone loves Li Jin.
