Bishop of the Devil

After the Spurs were eliminated, the Philadelphia 76ers quickly followed the Spurs. In the fifth game of the series against the Bulls, they lost by three points, which is a pity.

But even so, this 76ers team with two annual salary cores still makes people shine!

This season has reached the Eastern Conference semifinals. Next season, with the continued growth of the two young core strengths, Rick Carlisle will sew up again. Maybe they have a chance to impact the Eastern Conference Finals!

Think about how many years the Philadelphia 76ers have been in ruin, and finally see the light now!

From the beginning of 1991, they have firmly determined the line of rotten, and it has been rotten for six years before they initially saw the hope of rising...

The biggest reason why it took so long is that they chose the high pick in the first three years and chose a bunch of parallels.

In 1992, they selected Clarence Witherspoon with the ninth overall pick, Shaun Bradley with the second overall pick in 1993, and Sharon White with the sixth overall pick in 1994. Bradley is a little famous, and the remaining two are parallel imports...

Even Bradley, the big bamboo pole, said that he is a parallel import, sorry for the status of the top spot, in fact, there is nothing wrong...

It wasn't until the 76ers chose Starkhouse in 1995 that they chose Iverson and Dazhi in the next two years. Their doom was the end.

Imagine if the Sixers didn't have the No. 1 pick in 1996, then they couldn't get Iverson. It seems that they are still stuck in the quagmire and can't extricate themselves...

With Iverson, they can only get rid of the cumbersome confidence of the Stark House, and only then will the introduction of Carlisle and Big Zhi happen.

After sorting out this relationship, Iverson can be said to be the savior of the Philadelphia 76ers!

...

Five days later, the remaining two division finals also decided the result.

In the east, as Richard predicted, the Knicks played as a team in the second half of the playoffs. They successively scored the following goals and made a big round. They finally met with the Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals.

On the west side, the Jazz finally won slightly, and they beat the Rockets 4:3.

The physical problems of the Rockets' three elders is a difficult problem that they can't ignore. The series has a dense schedule and strong confrontation.

This result makes Richard a little regret...

He really wanted to have a showdown with the Rockets, but unfortunately the Jazz did not give such a chance!

They met the Blazers in the playoffs for the third consecutive year!

The first meeting, when Richard had not entered the NBA, the Trail Blazers lost quite badly...

The second encounter, that is, last season, although the Blazers still lost, but in the eyes of many Trail Blazers fans, they have won and reported their revenge last season.

The next Western Conference is the third meeting, countless people are watching this game!

No one will forget the **** battle between the two teams. This is the most talked about event in the past two years...

When the first match of the regular season this season, these two teams made a big shot. Although the next scheduled match was counted, both sides were very restrained in the four games...

But after all, it was a regular season, and the playoffs might happen again last season.

Fans do not yet know that Stern has notified the two teams in private...

In this situation, both teams are booby traps, and no one dares to start first, because once it is done, the cost is too great!

Moreover, Richard did not intend to start, this time their Blazers want to kill the Jazz in good faith!

There is nothing more humiliating than being slammed on the court...

The previous Blazers did not have this ability, their strength is still far from the Jazz!

Now Richard is confident, he feels confident that he can kill the Jazz, and he doesn't need seven games.

...

Trail Blazers boss Paul Allen is already crazy, the team has reached the Western Conference, and may even have the opportunity to reach the finals next!

From Paul Allen's point of view, it is no longer possible to reach the finals, but it will definitely be able to reach the finals!

He has unparalleled confidence in Richard, and he is also thankful for his wise move!

If you don’t ask Richard personally, Richard may not be so easy to agree to join the Trail Blazers, and finally join other teams, it is not impossible...

Now that Richard has been invited, the effect is immediate. In just two years, the Blazers have already reached the Western Conference!

Next will also reach the finals!

...

On May 18, the Western Conference opened the first game, and the Blazers sat at home against the Utah Jazz!

Before the start of the game, the two sides had a tacit understanding and did not hold a press conference...

The enmity between the two sides is now well known, and there is really no need to provoke each other. The only thing they need to do is win the opponent in the next series!

"Guys, without further ado, what does this series mean for us!"

The game is about to start, Richard is in the locker room, inspiring the players!

The players all nodded solemnly, not to mention Richard Dedor, they knew the meaning of this series...

Not only did they win the Jazz brightly, but also whether they could get the finals tickets!

"Okay! Now that everyone knows the meaning of this series, I won't say much!"

"In this round of the series, our starting lineup is the same as the last round of the series, and it is the position of the old Sa to play the starting center!"

The generals nodded, and the effect of Lao Sa's debut is indeed quite good. Moreover, there is no strong center in the Jazz. Lao Sa learned the stinky tomato rotten bird egg inside, and it is still quite useful.

At least easier to use than the young Xiaoao...

"There is one more thing, you all already know, that is, you can't take the initiative on the field!"

"I have already told you about the seriousness of this matter..."

"But still that sentence ~www.readwn.com~ We don't take the initiative, but if the other party dares to do the third thing, we can't spare them!" Richard said to the generals.

"Okay! Coach, don't worry, this series is the final glory of the Jazz!"

"We will be on the court and let them take a closer look at who is the real overlord in the west!"

"Fight four games to sweep them away!"

The crowd will shout, and the momentum is like a rainbow!

...

"Okay, guys, prepare to debut and tear them apart!"

"Tonight is the night when our Blazers swore the dominance of the West. There is only one hegemon in the West, and that is our Portland Blazers!"

Richard roared, leading the players to prepare for the stage.
