Bishop of the Devil

Chapter 405 Li Dapao fires!

Biquge www.xbiquge.bz, the fastest update of Devil Bishop!

Upon hearing Richard's words, the reporters in the audience immediately calmed down and waited for Li Dapao to fire!

A few days ago, Richard ripped into Jazz coach Sloan once, but he didn't tear him up too much. Although many people watched the excitement at the time, it didn't cause any big topic.

But this time it's different. Looking at Li Dapao's attitude, he is going to tear Phil Jackson apart this time!

Who is Phil Jackson? ! The most successful head coach in this league!

Created two dynasties!

Richard has beaten many head coaches, such as Larry Brown and Sloan, but the ranking of these two people is far inferior to that of Zen Master!

"Just think of it as me chatting with everyone today. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, but be careful not to interrupt me, especially those reporters from Los Angeles!"

"Okay, I'm afraid you all know what happened during the All-Star Game. Why am I so angry today? You must also know the reason!"

Richard said coldly.

"There's actually nothing to say about this kind of thing. It's normal. I, Richard, have done similar things myself..."

"But even though it's normal, if this happened to me, Richard, it's not okay!"

"Let's not talk about this for now, just talk about my views on the league's coaching community!"

"In my opinion, there are two types of coaches in the league..."

"A kind of coach who takes over the position of head coach during a difficult period for the team and then builds a strong team and cultivates countless strong players under their hands!"

"The other kind of head coach is an opportunist. He takes over the team when it is about to rise. After he has earned enough glory from the team, once the team shows signs of collapse , he immediately left and never thought about rebuilding the team based on his own abilities!"

"What's even more hateful is that this second type of coach is so incompetent that he can't even train a decent player!"

The reporters in the audience were in an uproar. Although Richard did not name him by name, everyone knew that the second type of coach Richard was talking about was Zen Master Jackson!

"In order to prevent you from guessing who this second type of coach is, I will simply name him and say that Phil Jackson is the representative of this type of coach!"

"Wow..." The reporters in the audience were in an uproar. Li Dapao was so crazy that he insulted Zen Master Jackson by name.

Although Zen Master is indeed suspected of opportunism, no one dares to say this openly. He is a head coach who has built two dynasties...

If anyone else had insulted Jackson Jackson like this, they would have been sprayed to death by Bulls fans!

But does Richard care? ! He obviously didn't care, so he just sprayed, so he could use less meat.

Now Jackson is squatting on his head to defecate, blatantly suppressing the Blazers' All-Stars, Richard is absolutely incompatible with him!

Several reporters from Los Angeles suddenly felt a little angry. They felt that what Richard said was a bit too much.

"Coach Richard, you have to understand that what you are insulting now is a head coach who created two dynasties!"

"I feel that even though you have achieved great success in the NBA, you are still not qualified to point fingers at Coach Phil!"

A Los Angeles reporter stood up with a livid face. He should be a die-hard Lakers fan.

Richard suddenly laughed playfully.

"Oh? I'm not qualified to tell him what to do?"

"His two dynasties, in my opinion, don't count! As long as I want, I, Richard, can create a dynasty for any team in this league!"

"I dare to say this. Go back to Los Angeles and ask Jackson if he dares to say such a thing?!" Richard asked with a sneer.

The reporters in the audience were in an uproar again. What did Richard say? !

He actually said that he could create a dynasty on any team in this league if he wanted to? !

What does he think the dynasty is? Does he think the dynasty is Chinese cabbage?

"Don't think I'm talking big, time will tell!"

"Now let's continue talking about Jackson. If I remember correctly, he joined the Bulls in 1988, right?"

Richard frowned and asked.

"It was 1989..." a reporter reminded Richard.

Richard waved his hand and laughed, "Yes, it was 1989, I remembered it wrong..."

"What was the Bulls' record before he accepted the Bulls? Let me think about it..."

"Oh, we made it to the Eastern Conference Finals!"

"When he accepted the Bulls, who was the number one shooting guard in the league? Oh, I think about it, it was Jordan who averaged 34.8 points per game..."

The reporters in the audience nodded. This is indeed the case. Before Jackson took over the Bulls, the Bulls had reached the Eastern Conference Finals, and Jordan was already the league's number one shooting guard.

"Reporter from Los Angeles, the Bulls should have risen by then, right?"

Richard asked with a smile.

The Los Angeles reporter looked livid and did not speak...

"Then, Jackson created two dynasties. Who can tell me which player in the Bulls' championship lineup was trained by Jackson?"

The reporters in the audience shook their heads. It wasn't that they didn't know, but that none of the Bulls' main roster for winning the championship was trained by a Zen master.

"Well, Jordan retired two years ago. What did he do? He ran away..."

"Tell me, where is his moral integrity?! The Bulls gave him six championships, but he treats others like this?"

"Now that we see that the Lakers are strong, they come to the Lakers. You know better than me what he wants to do. Doesn't he just want to continue to win the championship?"

"If you have the ability to join a team like the Grizzlies or Clippers, what's the point of always chasing powerful teams?"

Richard said with a sneer.

"Coach Richard, is it normal for a head coach to resign? Can you guarantee that you will stay with the Trail Blazers forever?" The Los Angeles reporter finally got the chance to refute Richard, and stood up again at this moment Asked.

In this league right now, there are really very few head coaches who are committed to a team from beginning to end.

Even a veteran head coach like Wilkens has changed many teams.

Now the reporter asked a quite pointed question...

That's why you said that Zen Master ran away. Can you, Richard, guarantee to stay with the Trail Blazers? !

When you leave the Trail Blazers, what will you say?!

Richard was obviously prepared for this rather difficult question.

"Of course I can't promise that I will never leave the Trail Blazers, but I can promise that I will never leave the Trail Blazers when they are in trouble!"

"The only time I left the Trail Blazers was when I gave them unparalleled glory, gave them a solid foundation, and made them one of the strongest teams in the Western Conference in the next few years before I left the Trail Blazers! "

"I can guarantee that even if I leave the Trail Blazers, I will let the Trail Blazers have four main players with All-Star strength and five newcomers whose strength has reached the Rookie Challenge level!"

Richard's voice was loud and crisp, resounding throughout the venue of the Rose Garden Arena!

Most of the reporters at the scene were reporters from Oregon. When they heard Richard's words, they were immediately moved!

But there was a murmur in my heart, why did I feel that Richard really wanted to leave the Trail Blazers...

If Richard really wants to leave, then these reporters will definitely not be happy. Even if Richard leaves the Blazers with four All-Stars and five strong rookies, they will not be willing...

With Richard, you can have as many All-Stars as you want, and as many strong rookies as you want!

Anyone can settle this account...

"Coach Richard, you won't leave the Trail Blazers after this season, right?" A local Portland reporter asked worriedly.

Richard smiled and waved his hands, "No!"

"I will never leave the Trail Blazers until I create a dynasty for them!"

"I still say the same thing, time will prove everything!"

"If Phil Jackson has any objections to my remarks, he can refute me at any time. I welcome him at any time!"

"By the way, next year's All-Stars, I, Richard, will definitely be the coach of the Western Conference. By then, the players under Jackson, even if they are starters, will not get more than thirty seconds of playing time from me! "

"I, Richard, do what I say!"

The reporters didn't recover for a long time. Li Dapao was really awesome today!

It just disgraced the Zen Master. The key is that the Zen Master is not a soft persimmon head coach. You can imagine how he will fight back against Richard.

These two people are completely at odds...

Before that, even though the Bulls eliminated the Trail Blazers in seven games, Richard didn't say anything. But now because Jackson suppressed the Trail Blazers players in the All-Star Game, Richard couldn't sit still.

From this we can also see how much Richard cares about his players. Even the slightest grievance can drive Richard crazy!

With such a defensive temperament, reporters can now understand why those players supported Richard so much.

It seems that every West Lafayette player is a die-hard fan of Richard, and they will never allow others to say anything bad about Richard!

Now reporters from all sides are waiting for the coming storm!

Jackson Jackson has quite a wide network of contacts in this league, and the players under him will probably stand up to support Jackson at times like this.

But Richard is not a vegetarian. Although Richard has just entered his fourth year in the league, his connections are no worse than Zen Master, or even better!

The reporters felt that this matter would definitely affect a wide range of people, and it would definitely not be just a dispute between Richard and Zen Master Jackson!

This could be a conflict between two factions!

As soon as the press conference ended, Paul Allen came to Richard's office in person the next day.

The reason he came to see Richard was naturally because of yesterday's press conference.

"Lee, you did a great job in this matter. If that old guy Phil doesn't give us the Trail Blazers face, then he won't have any face!" Paul Allen obviously supported Richard on this matter.

What the Zen Master is doing is the pioneer of Paul Allen. It’s surprising that Paul Allen is willing!

After finally setting a record in team history, four people were selected to the All-Stars, but the result was very ugly when the Zen Master interfered. All four people went to make soy sauce. It's strange that Paul Allen is happy!

Richard smiled and nodded, "Paul, is that why you came here today?"

Paul Allen waved his hand: "Of course not..."

"Li, I want to ask you, do you really have any plans to leave the Trail Blazers?"

Speaking of this, Paul Allen's face was full of nervousness.

He is not worried about the loss of income when Richard leaves the team. Even if there is a little less income, it will not hurt Paul Allen.

He is a fan himself, especially with the Blazers' current record, and he has completely fallen in love with the sport of basketball.

And he also knows that if Richard leaves, the Blazers may still be able to maintain competitiveness for a few years, but it may be difficult to have such a grand occasion again in the future.

He didn't want Richard to leave, not at all...

"Paul, I can't say anything about this, but I can guarantee that what was said at the press conference is true!"

"Even if I have to leave, it will be after I build a dynasty for the Trail Blazers!"

Richard said with a smile.

"Why? Is the salary not high enough? Li, I'm going to sign you a four-year, $50 million contract!"

Paul Allen is ready to make big moves and throw money at him!

A four-year, $50 million contract, this is the largest coaching contract in NBA history, with an average annual salary of more than $12 million. No coach has ever received such an annual salary!

But Richard waved his hand, "Paul, you should know, I'm not short of money."

"Did Olshey treat you openly and secretly? Did he make you unhappy?" Paul Allen asked doubtfully.

Richard shook his head again: "This matter has nothing to do with Orsi and the others..."

"They are all very cooperative with my work. If they are not cooperative, based on your understanding of my character, how can I be so calm..."

Paul Allen is completely confused. It's not a salary issue or a management power struggle. Then there is absolutely no reason for Richard to leave the Trail Blazers...

"I want to buy a team of my own in the future!" Richard said with some embarrassment.

These words completely stunned Paul Allen...

He didn't expect Richard to be so ambitious and want to buy a team of his own in the future!

That would explain why Richard wanted to leave.

He also has a good understanding of all the ins and outs of this. When he took over the Blazers, he relied not only on financial resources, but also on his excellent management ability.

Now he estimated that Richard had learned about this from some channels, so he came up with such an idea.

"Okay, Lee..."

"It is indeed a good thing for young people to have such ideals!"

Paul Allen said with a wry smile.

"However, you can't break your promise. You can't give up halfway when you promised to build a dynasty!"

Richard nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Paul, this is a man's promise!"

"The Trail Blazers will definitely be one of the dynasty teams in this league!"

After walking out of Richard's office, Paul Allen smiled bitterly.

What he is thinking about now is very strange, that is, he hopes that after the Trail Blazers win this season, they will not win the championship next season...

That wouldn't be a dynasty, and Richard could stay with the Trail Blazers.

Then you have to stay for at least another three years!

But when I think about it carefully, my idea is really weird. I actually hope that my team will not win the championship...

As various reporters expected, the Zen Master immediately counterattacked the next day!

"It's just a defeated subordinate. If he had defeated me in the finals in 1997, then what he said would still be somewhat convincing!"

"But now, he lost to me. I want to advise this young man that losers have no right to speak!"

"As for me not giving playing time to the Trail Blazers players, that's my freedom. I am the coach of this year's All-Star team!"

"Richard is really a little too arrogant!"

"We'll wait until he really leads the Blazers to create a dynasty, but I feel like they have no hope. If it weren't for the shark-cutting tactics, they wouldn't be our opponents!"

When the Zen master said this, he almost made Richard angry to death.

Are you the loser of that old guy? ! Although this is true, couldn't that old guy defeat him by relying on the Peak Bull Iron Triangle? !

At that time, the Trail Blazers were a bunch of new players. If it had been last season, Richard would have been confident to kill them even if they were the Bulls Iron Triangle!

The feud between Richard and Jackson directly caused an uproar in the alliance.

Stern had the intention to stop it, but thinking about it, he seemed to have no reason to stop it. They didn't scold the league management committee. It was just an exchange of insults between private individuals. Why should the league stop it.

When the Philadelphia 76ers heard what Zen Master said, they were immediately unhappy.

Iverson and Dazhi both regard Richard as a god-like existence. Now an old guy suddenly appears and says that Richard is his loser. It's strange that they can agree.

"That old guy only dares to coach some mature and rising teams. I don't understand how such a coach has the nerve to come out and embarrass himself!" Iverson was not polite at all and scolded Zen Master when he caught him.

"Well said! That's what I want to say..." Dazhi was quite reserved and didn't scold directly, but after Iverson finished scolding, he always added the same sentence.

"Didn't this old guy just achieve something with the Bulls? What's so great about it? Besides, those achievements of the Bulls belong to Jordan and have nothing to do with this old guy!" Iverson cursed again.

"That's right, it has nothing to do with him!" Dazhi...

When the Philadelphia Twins said this, they not only angered Master Zen, but also angered Mr. Pi who was currently in the Rockets!

"Are those two guys so tough now?! I think back when our Bulls played them in the Eastern Conference semifinals, these two little wimps weren't that tough, and we beat the shit out of them!"

"If our Bulls are still here, can these two little cowards make it to the finals? Just dream..." Pippen's big mouth is not forgiving at all.

Mainly because he felt insulted. Iverson said that the Bulls' achievements belonged to Jordan. What did he mean? ! I, Erye Pi, am the air? !

The grumpy Philadelphia Twins couldn't stand Pippen's words again, so they caught Pippen and slapped him again.

"You old-fashioned guy, you should first think about how to enter this year's playoffs? Stop living in a dream. Facts have proved that without Jordan, you are not even shit!"

"Dear Rockets fourth-in-command, why did I hear that the Rockets have been looking to trade you this offseason? Sadly, of the twenty-eight teams left in the league, no one wants you!"

Iverson's mouth can be said to be very vicious, almost completely revealing Pippen's scars.

Especially the idea of ​​four Rockets leaders made Pippen even more angry.

Pippen quarreled with the Philadelphia Twins in the air, but the Bulls and the Bulls all came out to support Pippen.

"These brats, they'd better keep their mouths shut, otherwise, we old guys will give them a good lesson!" Luke Longley was the first to jump out.

The Spurs' Cole also had a bad temper. He and Jordan didn't get along, and Iverson's words also made him unhappy.

"The Bulls' achievements belong to all players. Today's young people are really inferior to each other!"

"Don't think that just because you put up some numbers, you think you are someone. When we won the championship, you were still wearing crotchless pants!" Lakers point guard Harper said to reporters.

Kukoc, who is still with the Bulls, is also supporting Pippen at this moment.

They all have a revolutionary bond and have played together for many seasons...

But Jordan and Rodman, the two members of the Iron Triangle, did not get involved in this matter.

These two people are too lazy to get involved. If Pippen gets involved in bickering with others every time, then his days will never be the same...

After the old Bulls players stood up, they ignored a problem!

That’s the size of the West Lafayette community and their unity!

The Green Kai Twins, who are both from the Eastern Conference team, caught a bunch of old Bulls players and scolded them.

Fortunately for Billups, his temper is not too fierce, but Pierce is not. His fierce temper has almost greeted Pippen's ancestors for eighteen generations.

Not only that, the West Lafayette players from more than ten teams in the league have all come forward. No matter how mild-tempered they are, they are accusing the Bulls players of being shameless.

Especially within the Bulls, it was even more explosive!

Kukoc still stayed with the Bulls. The Bulls dynasty disintegrated and he did not leave.

When he said that to the media, he completely offended the team's top boss and second boss.

Rashid, the first boss, and Brand, the second boss!

As a result, a violent conflict broke out in the Bulls locker room. Kukoc was blocked by Rashid and Brand in the corner of the locker room and scolded him all afternoon.

Kukoc feels helpless...

After all, he is also a meritorious veteran of the team, but when this happened, the team did not speak for him, and did not even criticize Rasheed and Brand...

Completely turning a blind eye!

In Ranbir's words, whoever told you to talk too much deserves to be beaten to death!

Stern was dumbfounded. He never expected that the exchange of insults between Richard and Jackson would lead to such a thing.

Most teams in the league have joined the fight!
