After Batum was traded, the current Pirates are still overcrowded with forward and defensive players.

There are only three left on the inside line at the moment, and counting the McDyce that he just gotten, there are only four.

At the moment, McDyce actually doesn't play a role at all, and the reason why Richard wants him is also to match the salary in subsequent trades.

Now Richard wants to bring in Brand, who is playing for the Philadelphia 76ers.

Although Brand's current state is declining very much, his short-term appearance efficiency is still good, which is just right for the team's bench inside.

And Matthews is the predetermined chip that Richard is going to take out to package McDyes, to trade Brand.

Before the trade, Richard must let Matthews show some potential and immediate power, otherwise, even if Richard has a good relationship with the management of the Philadelphia 76ers, they will definitely not agree to such a deal.

Tonight is clearly the best chance for Matthews to show his strength.

……

Mike Brown sat on the bench on the sidelines, and he envisioned that the team would lose, but he didn't expect to lose in this way, completely being pressed to the ground and rubbing against the ball.

After the third quarter, the game went into garbage time, and the Cavaliers were already trailing by 32 points.

James's stats are good, with 18 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists, and if nothing else, he will definitely get a 20+10 double-double after this game......

But this is useless, in front of the pirate team's iron hooves, just a 20+10 data, obviously unable to lead the team to win.

It is rumored that after hitting a three-point shot in the opening game, under Curry's pursuit and defense, there is no too good feeling.

You must know that the current Curry is bound to a mad dog, and his defensive ability is still quite good.

Mo Bu made 2-of-7 three-pointers in the final 3-pointer and scored only 15 points.

There is another big Z, who played 30 minutes tonight and scored 10 points, which is all the players of the Cavaliers who scored double-doubles tonight.

On the other hand, on the side of the pirates, it can be called inexplicable.

Even Matthews, who came off the bench, easily scored 15 points.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Cavaliers directly gave up resistance......

The game was completely unplayable, and the gap was so big that it was far beyond Mike Brown's estimate.

He knew very well that even if O'Neal and they were all there tonight, the Pirates might still be able to easily win against their Cavaliers......

When it comes to the playoffs, even if their Cavaliers can take out the Pistons and meet the Pirates, they may be swept away.

Thinking about this situation, Mike Brown was quite painful, and he knew that his time in charge of the Cavaliers was running out.

Losing the playoffs and firing the coach first is not uncommon in the NBA league.

……

"Coach Brown, how do you feel about losing by 45 points tonight as the best team in the league?"

This is the home of the Pirates, and there were many local newspaper reporters from Charlotte at the scene, and at the post-game press conference, the local reporters asked questions directly and unceremoniously.

Brother Bread looked tangled, what the hell is the strongest team? This is not said by himself, but by Richard......

"First of all, I want to affirm that I never said that we were the strongest team in the league, and that was what Richard said."

"Secondly, there are a lot of reasons why we lost this game tonight, and if it was a playoff game, I don't think it would have been like tonight." Mike Brown struggled to make himself look confident......

Many local Charlotte reporters in the audience laughed, knowing today, why bother in the first place.

"Coach Brown, so you're sure you can take out the Buccaneers in the playoffs?" Another reporter asked Brother Bread a fatal question.

Brother Bread's face became more and more difficult to look at.

This question is quite painful, he really doesn't have the slightest certainty, not even the certainty of avoiding being swept by the pirates.

But how can this kind of true inner thoughts be spoken......

Once he says it, I'm afraid the next day the knight management will fire him.

But if you tell reporters that you are sure, you will be swept by Richard when the time comes, and this matter will be too embarrassing.

He simply refused to answer the question.

……

When it was the Pirates' turn to press conference after the game, Richard was in high spirits and brought Matthews, a newcomer who performed well tonight, and Roy, the top scorer in the game, to the press conference.

"Coach Richard, how do you feel after tonight's game?" The reporter asked.

"It's hard, it's so hard......"

"It was too difficult for us to win this game, and you can see that we played a lot on the field......"

"I just hope the Pistons can wear the Cavaliers a little bit more in the playoffs right now, otherwise I'm going to be under a lot of pressure against the best team in the league."

The reporters in the audience rolled their eyes one after another, they all won more than 40 points, and they even dared to say that it was difficult to win, and whether they could show face.

……

"Coach Richard, we just received news that the Los Angeles Clippers are infighting, what do you think?"

Reporters have just received the news that something quite unpleasant has happened after the Clippers' game tonight.

"Huh? Are they infighting? You come to ask me about this, it's a little unreasonable, right? But I'm still curious, what happened to them? Listening to your tone, it seems like a lot of things are not small. The fire of gossip in Richard's heart was blazing.

"Of course it has something to do with you, because this Clippers infighting broke out between their head coach and owner Raheem Sterling." The reporter said with a smile.

Everyone knows that Stevens is a descendant of Richard......

After tonight's game, the Clippers locker room heard Stevens and Sterling arguing, and the reporters outside the door heard it clearly.

It's not clear what happened, but it's infighting.

Stevens, as Richard's descendant, now that this kind of thing has happened, reporters naturally want to ask Richard.

……

Richard was stunned, he never expected Stevens, a good-natured person, to quarrel with the boss.

And it sounds like it's quite serious, and if nothing else, it's sure to make headlines tomorrow.

Richard frowned and began to ponder.

If nothing else, the headlines tomorrow may include the news that Stevens has been fired by the Clippers, in addition to the conflict between Stevens and Sterling.

No matter which team you put it on and arguing with the boss, it will definitely not end well.

Richard is not worried that Stevens will not find a home, Stevens' ability over the years is also obvious to everyone, and it is actually quite difficult to bring a messy team like the Clippers into the playoffs.

It may not take 24 hours for Stevens to find his next home.

Now Richard is not thinking about Stevens' next home, but whether he should take this opportunity to make a wave of Sterling.

Xing may take advantage of this opportunity to directly let Sterling lose ownership of the Clippers!

……

After pondering for a while, just as the reporters were guessing what Richard was thinking, Richard picked up the microphone in front of him.

"Stevens is kind of a manager I've watched grow up, he's a very capable young coach and he's pretty honest in terms of how he behaves."

"I think I'm sure I'm ashamed of myself in that regard, he's a decent manager, and I'm obviously not as honest as he is......" Richard made a joke at first, at least he thought it was a joke.

The reporters in the audience nodded their heads, they couldn't find fault at all, and in terms of integrity, a hundred Richards couldn't compare to Stevens.

Richard was dumbfounded when he saw the reporters in the audience nodding their heads, dare he be so evil in the eyes of these people?!

"If such an upright person argues with his boss, then I can be sure that the problem lies with Sterling."

"I don't have a lot of interaction with Raheem Sterling, but I know a little bit about who he is."

"So to speak, he is not a good man, and if I can go to heaven when I die, then he will only go to hell......"

"I don't like Sterling a lot, Stevens wanted to go to the Clippers, I stopped it, I expected it to happen today."

"Anyway, it's Sterling's fault, Stevens is my best friend, if Sterling dares to fire Stevens because of this, I will never let him go!"

The reporters in the audience were dumbfounded, shouldn't you Richard catch Brother Bread and ridicule him at tonight's press conference?!

Why is it now directly aimed at Clippers owner Sterling, listening to Richard's tone, it seems that he is going to completely offend Sterling to death.

Especially the last sentence, even if Sterling himself has no intention of firing Stevens, he has to fire him now, otherwise, wouldn't he be afraid of him Richard.

This is a real pig teammate!

100% will hurt Stevens to lose his job.

……

And the reporters don't understand why Richard dislikes Sterling so much, in Richard's mouth, he, the devil, can go to heaven, and Sterling only deserves to go to hell?!

So how bad is this Sterling, I guess it's all bad and breathable......

The reporters were still a little happy that there was such an unexpected scene suddenly, and they didn't get the news that Richard was mocking the knights, but the news that Richard angrily scolded Sterling was even more powerful.
