Bishop of the Devil

On April 14, the Pirates' final game of the season.

Although Richard had a lot of rest in the final stage of the schedule, even so, the Pirates still maintained a good win rate.

The current record of 72 wins and 9 losses by the Pirates is staggering.

In this last game, whether Richard wants to win or not, when this game is over, he will definitely get some system rewards.

"Guys, tonight is the last game of the season. End the season with an unbeatable victory!" Richard said, smiling at the players in the locker room.

The crowd will applaud. The opponent of this game is the New Jersey Nets. The Eastern Powerhouse a few years ago, but now it is the Eastern Fishbelt. Judging from their current situation, this state of the fishbelt is estimated to have to continue for many years. .

Such a fish-bellied opponent, the Pirates are naturally quite confident to win, plus Richard's main game in this game, waiting for the Nets to end only to be slaughtered.

...

Tonight's closing game is the home of the Pirates. The fans on the scene are full. This situation began after the Pirates got 70 wins. The fans are ready to witness the miracle of the Pirates this season.

Winning tonight, the Pirates will score 73 wins and 9 losses!

"Richard!"

"Richard!"

Richard's appearance made the pirates fans scream wildly. Last season, Richard gave them a big surprise. Without being optimistic, he directly led the team to win the championship!

This season, Richard is invincible, and it is very likely that the Bulls will break the historical single-season victory record!

This is a great record. If it can be broken, it will be enough for pirate fans to blow for many years.

Even if the game loses tonight, the 72 wins in a single season is tied to the Bulls, which is also a worthy event for pirate fans.

Anyway, regardless of whether the Pirates lost or won tonight, this season is perfect for them.

...

After Richard entered the stadium, he suddenly remembered something. It seems that his experience with the Pirates is somewhat similar to the warriors of later generations...

In the 14-15 season, the Warriors won the championship. At that time, they were not the optimistic side. Many famous players rated them as jumpers...

But it was under this unfavorable situation that the Warriors killed the Cavaliers with a big score of 4:2 and won the championship.

The situation of the Pirates last season is almost the same, and they are not optimistic. The main reason is that the players are too young and too young. Compared with the spicy Spurs, the disadvantages are clear at a glance.

But in the end, the Pirates also defeated their opponents with a 4:2 score to get the championship!

...

And the next season after the Warriors won the championship, it is their 73 wins runner-up season.

Coincidentally on Richard's side, there may be a 73 win...

"Good guys, won't we lose the championship this season like the Warriors?" Richard thought uneasy.

There are some evil goals. If Richard failed to lead the team to win the championship this season, it would be embarrassing to lose the championship.

...

Richard even wondered if he wanted to lose this game deliberately, lest he repeat the mistake of winning 73 runner-ups...

But even if Richard did this, maybe the game won in the end.

The Nets have completely lost the hope of entering the playoffs. They can now lose one more game, and strive for a better draft pick.

In this game, they took a break from the two headed players in the team. After all, they ended in the season, and they are still away. If the players take a break, no one can pick out the fault.

Kidd and Carter take a break, the Nets can only lead the next Jefferson, this game is difficult to lose!

In the less than half of the game time, the Pirates played a climax of 21:5. The Nets played even less fighting spirit. They may now only hope that the game ends quickly, and then they each start their own Offseason holidays.

...

"Buddu!" The referee blew the whistle at the end of the game. The Pirates beat the Nets by 52 points at home.

73 wins and 9 losses!

On the big screen over the Pirates Arena, at the moment the game ended, the number 73 was immediately played, and the fans on the scene could not stop cheering.

Richard also smiled at the moment when the game ended. After breaking the Bulls record this time, he got the injury reel he desperately needed.

A junior injury reel, plus an intermediate injury reel, and 3 more famous places are credited.

Counting the two injury reels previously stocked, Richard now has four injury reels on hand, which is certainly sufficient for this year's playoffs.

In the past years, Richard, in fact, used a lot of injury reels on Xiaoao's body. The Pistons rarely used injury reels in those two years.

Now this pirate team is extremely special...

In an unpleasant sentence, it is the old, weak and sick...

The old O'Neill, the weak Milicic, the sick Paul, the disabled Oden, Granger, and Roy.

Only under the influence of Richard, their fate has been rewritten.

Now Richard cannot guarantee whether they will be injured in the preseason...

With two more injury and illness reels, after all, it's an extra layer of protection. Richard doesn't want to be as miserable as the black Spurs.

...

The East-West playoff list was released on April 15th.

The eight teams in the east are the Pirates, Green Kai, Pistons, Magic, Cavaliers, Wizards, Raptors and 76ers.

The two teams, Pirates and Green Kai, are naturally the most favored teams in the East. Although Green Kai was swept by the Pirates during the regular season, he didn’t win a game, but in the playoffs, the situation is unknown. I dare not say that Lu Kaizhen cannot beat the pirates.

As for the Pistons, it is still a team that cannot be underestimated.

Richard stayed in the Pistons for three years and led his team to two championships. In the years after he left, the Pistons never missed the Eastern Conference Finals. If this season's green triumphant rise, the Pistons will definitely get tickets for the Eastern Conference. .

The last team in the first half of the Eastern Conference, Orlando Magic, is showing signs of its rise this year. It can produce the best Eastern results outside the Big Three in the Eastern Conference. This is a remarkable achievement in itself.

As for the four teams in the second half of the Eastern Conference, that's basically nothing to look at. Maybe some teams have a good lineup, but because of the existence of the Eastern Big Three, it is difficult for them to break into the second round of the playoffs.

The only one who has a chance to enter the second round is the Cavaliers against the Magic. They may be able to kill the Cavaliers and get tickets for the second round of the playoffs.

Richard saw their 76ers in the first round of the playoffs and sighed deeply.

In the playoffs, Richard and the 76ers played countless times. During the Blazers period, they met the 76ers in the finals continuously. After arriving at the Pistons, they met the 76ers in the Eastern Conference.

Now the 76ers are obviously having difficulty reaching the finals, not to mention the finals.

...

There are three giants of pirates, Green Kai and Pistons in the east, and it may be more chaotic in the west.

The Lakers have an excellent record of 68 wins this season, and then ranked according to the record are the Jazz, Spurs, Suns, Mavericks, Nuggets, Warriors and Trail Blazers.

It is worth mentioning that, under normal circumstances, the Warriors successfully set a record this season...

But this record does not make people happy, but a rather unlucky record.

Under normal circumstances, the Warriors have a good record of 48 wins and 34 losses in the regular season this season, with a winning rate of 58.5%!

As a result, they failed to enter the playoffs...

This Warrior is the first team to win more than 48 games in a single season since the establishment of the entire NBA history, but can not enter the playoffs.

Historical record...

This is quite embarrassing, because under normal circumstances, the Cavaliers ranked fourth in the east, only 45 wins!

From this, we can see quite clearly how huge the gap between the East and the West was.

The fourth Cavaliers in the East are placed in the West, and even the threshold of the playoffs is untouchable.

However, because of Richard's reasons, there is no difference in the high-end combat power of the East and West. The gap is mainly reflected in the second half of the playoffs and those lottery teams.

...

"Buddu!" A whistle sounded over the pirate arena, and the first round of the preseason officially started.

The 76ers have some famous main players remaining in the team this season, including Zhi Zhi, Andre Miller and Cedis Young.

These three can lead the team to the playoffs, it is really not easy, even if they have only 37 wins, almost half of the Pirates...

"Coach, are you really not planning to lead this year's Olympics?" Da Zhi asked with a wry smile after seeing Richard.

He didn't mention this round of the series, because in his view, they belonged to this round of the series, they were involved in the joke, the two sides lost twice the victory, even if Da Zhi is more confident, confident to the point of arrogance And they would not believe that the 76ers could kill the pirates with the following skills.

"Yes, let this team let Zhang Weiping go. He knows more about the situation in China than I do." Richard nodded.

Da Zhi nodded somewhat disappointed...

He is already 31 years old this year, and has gradually started to decline. His state is far from the previous years. Although he can still easily score more than 15+ points per game, he is 33 years old when the contract is over now. At that time, I was waiting for my estimate that it would be a middle-class contract, or even a veteran's basic salary...

Da Zhi has never been involved in the NBA championship, he is naturally unwilling.

"Coach, after my contract is over, I'll go find you..." Da Zhi was a little embarrassed to mention this.

"The base salary is definitely the base salary to join the pirates. I also want to taste the championship..."

Richard nodded with a smile, "Welcome at any time, then the Pirates will give you a place."

...

The game on the field has already started, and the strength gap is completely beyond words.

Andre Miller is 32 years old, and his physical condition is still okay, but in the face of a strong calf-like Paul, his physical fitness is too great. ~www.readwn.com~ can't keep up at all Paul's rhythm.

As for the newcomer who just joined the league this year, Sadis-Yang is actually out of confusion...

I don't know if I am suitable for playing the third or fourth position. Right now, Yang Erxia's technique is rough, and the effect of playing the third position is not very good. But when playing the fourth position, he is short and is in a dilemma.

If he plays under Richard, Richard estimates that Yang Erxia will stay in the fourth position. After all, Yang Erxia's rebounding ability and defensive ability inside are still pretty good.

Confused Yang Erxia is obviously very difficult to give the 76ers too much help.

As for the big Zhi, this game scored 21 points, which is already a very good play, but in the face of pirates, this 21 points is obviously unable to save the world.

The Pirates won the first round of the playoffs in the first round of the playoffs, and was still a big victory, eventually winning the 76ers 32 points.

In the next two games, one at home and one away, the Pirates continued their momentum of victory. It seems that no one can stop it.
