After two draws, the harvest is still quite rich.

A good Dan and a mad dog lingering prop, these two things, in terms of value, must be higher than a little famous point!

And this mad dog lingering prop, in fact, should be regarded as the most valuable prop in Richard's current hands if it is worth it.

The main thing is that this thing is not one-time use, but can be used forever, such as using it for the old Curry now, and if the old Curry retires in the future, this prop will not be wasted......

Richard can take it back and give it to other players to use!

It's comfortable enough for Richard to always have a pretty good perimeter defender on his roster.

The level of outside defenders, in Richard's view, can be divided into almost four levels.

The first level is the super, that is, Jordan, Glove Payton, Montliffe, steal quadruple-double winner Ervin Robertson, Leonard, Artest and other outside defenders who have won DPOY.

The first four players are all guards, and in the entire history of the NBA, these four guards have won DOPY.

As for the second level, it is a first-class level, such as Kobe, Bowen, Pippen, Kidd, Larry Hughes, CP3, Rondo, Beverley, Ragabel, Iguodala, Tony Allen, Pickled Pepper and other outside defenders who have been selected to defend the first line.

The third level is a second-rate level, who has not been selected for the defensive first team in his career, but has been selected for the defensive second team, or has not been selected for the best defensive team, but the defensive efficiency is recognized by fans, but it is just bad luck, and there are too many players competing in the same class......

Players of this level such as Josh Smith, Wade, Battier, Ariza, etc., such as Battier and Wade, have been selected for the defensive second team two or three times, but because they have not entered the defensive first team, they can only be counted as second-rate outside defenders.

Ariza, on the other hand, has never been selected to the All-Defensive Team, but his defensive prowess is also admittedly good, so he qualifies as a second-rate perimeter defender.

Next up are third-rate outside defenders, except for the above three levels of players, they can all be said to be third-rate outside defenders.

At the moment, this mad dog lingering prop can allow the target player to have ninety percent of Beverley's defensive skills.

This is quite powerful, even if it is only ninety percent, with the level of Beverley's first-class defensive players, it is actually enough for the target player to have a defensive level like Ariza and Battier, which is actually quite good.

Of course, the first-rate second-rate mentioned here is calculated in terms of the entire history of the NBA, not in terms of a certain era.

If you look at it in a certain era, a second-rate defender is also a proper first-class standard in the modern era.

……

Richard took a look at his current coaching attributes and found that the comparison was already a lot more detailed than before.

"Richard (coach): 65 points overall!"

Tactical ability 57

Ability to tap potential48

Screening player ability 100

Bargaining power 49

Charisma 81

Coach Luck is worth 59

Host Possession Items: Lucky Dice, All-Star Light (Allen Iverson), All-Star Light (Kobe Bryant), All-Star Light (Jermaine O'Neal), Super Giant Sneakers, Intermediate Injury Reels (Jemaine O'Neal Exclusive), Intact Dan, Patrick Beverley's Lingering!

Host Crafted Combination: Iron Plate Combination (Kobe Bryant & Ben Wallace)

The host has a famous spot: 4 points!

Honors won by the host: 1 championship, 2 finals, 2 best coaches!

After looking at his current attributes and the props he has, Richard actually felt quite a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

It's really not easy, I have worked hard in the past three years, and I have finally saved a huge fortune.

In terms of attributes, Richard's player screening ability was the full value of 100 points in the past, and now although the system reward has increased by 9 points several times, the player's screening ability has not been improved, and it seems that 100 points is the limit and cannot continue to improve.

Attributes are not what Richard is most concerned about, he is most concerned about the props in his hands.

The lucky dice have not been used for a while, but Richard has already made a preliminary plan for when to use them.

A few other items, the mad dog's lingering, will come in handy next season, and as for the rest, if Richard wants to use it, he can also use it......

However, it is a pity to use these things, which are all strategic weapons, and when they encounter difficulties in the future, they may come in handy.

The current Richard can be said to be smooth sailing......

However, with his indefinite personality, it is unlikely that he will stay with the Trail Blazers in the future, and he is likely to open up another world, or he may buy a team that is completely his own.

At that time, Richard, who is poor and white, may be able to use these strategic props.

……

On the night of winning the championship, Richard and the Trail Blazers were "chic" to their heart's content, and they all won the championship, and there must be no pressure in their hearts, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a season were completely released tonight.

The next evening, the group left Philadelphia on a special plane and returned to Portland.

There are still countless fans waiting for the hero's triumph!

After winning the championship, there will naturally be a championship parade, Paul Allen's old face is full of flowers, leaving behind the matter at hand, and personally taking the Trailblazers to the championship parade......

The whole of Portland is completely boiling, and the alleys are empty!

It's been a long time since Portland tasted a championship, and they haven't won a championship until now, although they are not as miserable as some teams.

But the last time they won the title was more than 30 years ago......

In the 1976-1977 season, under the leadership of the most creative coach Jack Ramsey, the top 50 superstar Bill Walton, and Portland enforcer Maurice Lucas, they won the only championship in their team history!

And now, history has been rewritten!

The Trail Blazers have won their second championship in team history!

Richard and the Trail Blazers became the heroes of Portland.

won the championship, Richard was full of emotion in his heart.

In fact, in fact, when Richard first entered the league, he set himself the goal of winning the championship in three years, and now that his goal has been achieved, he is also relieved.

The first championship is in hand, how far is the second and third ones going?!

Richard wants to build a dynasty, and not just Richard, but any manager has the idea of building a dynasty team.

The only thing Richard needs to do now is to keep the team as competitive as possible, so that they will still be the favourites to win the championship for the rest of the season!

……

The day after the championship parade, Bowen walked straight into Richard's office.

"Coach, I ......" Bowen looked embarrassed, obviously a little embarrassed.

Richard waved his hand, "Man, you are also a member of our Sirafayette now, don't think so much, people go to high places and water flows to low places, go, there is a good place for you!" ”

Even if Bowen didn't speak, Richard knew what Bowen was trying to say......

"Coach, I feel sorry for everyone."

"I feel even more sorry for you, if you hadn't dug me out at the beginning, I don't know where to mess around now......"

Richard smiled and shook his head: "Bruce, in the past three years, you have done enough for the Trail Blazers, don't think so much, take it easy, the Spurs' contract can match your value!" “

"You're not sorry for me, and you're not sorry for anyone, don't worry, no one will say anything!"

Bowen nodded at Richard gratefully, if Richard asked him to take a pay cut to stay, he would probably grit his teeth and agree......

But Richard didn't do that, he didn't want his players to take a pay cut!

That's right, I just don't want to make less money by myself......

These players are all young players, and if they are all at the end of their careers, it is a matter of two words, but now that they are all making a lot of money, how can Richard bear to let them take a salary cut!

Especially Bowen, who was 25 years old when he entered the league, and is almost 28 years old now, at this age, I am afraid that he can only sign a big contract, and when he is in his thirties, who would dare to give Bowen a big contract?!

After sending Bowen off, Richard felt a lot more relaxed.

This day should have come or come, and it was still a little uncomfortable to send away the players he had cultivated by himself.

But there is no way, there is no banquet in the world!

……

Early the next morning, the Spurs officially announced that they had reached a preliminary agreement with Bowen to sign a contract.

Bowen is a free agent and is only interested in signing at the moment, so this is not a violation of NBA rules.

The teams in the league exploded, and the action to carve up the Trail Blazers' big cake officially began because of the Spurs' official announcement!

Don't look at the Spurs have reached a preliminary signing intention with Bowen, but since the door to the trade market has not yet opened, Bowen can actually change his mind at any time......

At the moment, Bowen, because of his status as a free agent, can choose the Spurs, can choose the Trail Blazers, and even other teams.

The teams couldn't wait and immediately extended an olive branch to Bowen!

In the past three years, Bowen's performance in the Trail Blazers is definitely obvious to all, and the defensive strength is quite strong, it is no exaggeration to say that after any team steals it, it can be used as the core of the outside defense immediately!

In this era, the center is withering, and most of the team's strong points are on the outside, so you can imagine how high the value of an outside defensive core is!

That is, Bowen has no independent offensive ability, otherwise, the Spurs would not be able to get the annual salary of four million.

Jazz contacted Bowen as soon as possible and offered a long-term contract of 5 years and 23 million!

I have to say that the Jazz's contract is already quite sincere.

The Spurs gave a four-year contract with a total value of 17 million, which is obviously not as sincere as the Jazz......

But what made the Jazz management almost vomit blood was that Bowen only gave a simple reply.

“F**K-OFF！”

"Get out!"

Bowen is now an official member of the West Lafayette, how can he go to join the Jazz, even if the Jazz give a little more......

Moreover, even if Richard and the Jazz have no grudges, Bowen's first choice is the Spurs.

The reason for this is that the Spurs do not have a backcourt......

If Bowen joins the Spurs, it is estimated that he will become the core of the backcourt, and what about joining the Jazz?

The Jazz backcourt has Stockton and Hornacek, and Bowen is the top three in the Jazz backcourt.

Not only the Jazz, but even the Lakers, Knicks, 76ers and other strong teams have extended an olive branch to Bowen.

Who wouldn't want such a cheap outside defensive core?

Bowen actually had the idea of joining the 76ers, after all, the 76ers have many acquaintances......

He also asked Richard about this and wanted Richard to help him get the idea, but Richard didn't say anything.

The next road depends on how Bowen chooses himself......

Richard is not going to be afraid of the Spurs just because they have Bowen on board.

Unlike other teams, the Trail Blazers have a lot of scary outside attack points, and Bowen can defend one of them, but how to defend the other two?

Unless the Spurs come up with three Bowen and then take advantage of the existence of the Twin Towers, they may be able to wrestle with the Trail Blazers.

Regardless, Richard won't influence Bowen's franchise options right now.

Every decision you make has the potential to affect the player's career, so it's better to decide less!

……

On the fifth day of the finals, the draw began!

It's a few days earlier than in previous years, but it's normal, after all, the schedule of this shrunken season has been pushed back a lot, and if the draw is arranged according to the normal rhythm, it will definitely affect the schedule of next season.

This lottery is not a pioneer business......

Their record this season is definitely only a first-round pick of 29th and a second-round pick of 29th.

These two draft picks, not to mention the second round, the first round of the draft pick, Richard is still quite dissatisfied......

The 1999 draft was actually a big year, although the quality of the stars produced was certainly not as good as that of 96, but the number was quite a lot.

Captain Brand, Francis, Bearded Davis, Lama Odom, Szzebiak, Hamilton, Andre Miller, Hacker Marion, Jet Terry, James Posey, Corey Margetty, Beast Artest, AK47 Kirilenko!

These 13 players are all NBA personalities with names and surnames, and all of them are first-round stars, which can also be seen in the grand occasion of the 1999 draft.

With 29 first-round picks, there are 13 star or quasi-star level players, and the star production rate is already quite terrifying.

However, what is more embarrassing is that these 13 players, if they are selected under normal circumstances, none of the 29th picks in Richard's hands can be selected.

Kirilenko, the lowest pick among the 13 people, was the 24th pick in the first round!

As for the West Lafayette players, Brand and others, they are all estimated to be in the top ten picks, and Richard definitely doesn't have to worry about it......
