Bishop of the Devil

Richard is extremely reassuring when doing things in a big way!

At this moment, Richard felt that he needed to have a good chat with Miller...

"Miller, look at me!" Richard shouted.

"This may be my fault. When I was a Boilermaker, the idea I instilled in you was to be humble when treating your brothers!"

"But you have misunderstood the meaning of humility!"

"Be humble to your brothers, but Latrel is not your brother, not our brother in West Lafayette, you must be tough!"

"This is not humility, but cowardice!"

Richard stared into Miller's eyes tightly and continued speaking word by word.

"After this game, come back to Oakland and I want you to beat the shit out of that son of a bitch!"

"Don't tell me you can't even beat that son of a bitch!"

Miller's eyes widened. He didn't expect Richard to make such a request to him!

"You don't need any reason, just hit him when you meet him!"

"Believe me, if you scare a dog like this, he will naturally become honest!"

Richard knew very well that what he asked Miller to do was simply too extreme, but it had to be extreme. If Miller wanted to gain a firm foothold in the team, he had to pass the level of a madman!

Seeing Miller still hesitating, Richard suddenly became angry!

"What are you hesitating about?! Are you waiting for that son of a bitch to crush you completely?!"

“We don’t have any cowards in West Lafayette!”

"Iverson, who is a head shorter than you, if this happens to him, I can guarantee that he will beat the person into a pig's head!"

"Where did all your seven-foot tallness go?!"

"Don't worry about the team's punishment. If Richard is in the NBA for one day, you will never be unable to find a job!"

Miller began to tremble. The words "There is no coward in West Lafayette" completely stimulated Miller!

"Coach! I'm not a coward!"

"When I get back to Auckland, I'm going to make that son of a bitch pay!"

"There is no coward in West Lafayette, and even if there was, it would definitely not be me, Brad Miller!"

Richard clapped his hands and laughed, "Okay! Okay! Okay!"

"I'm waiting to see this on the news!"

"Now go warm up, this is your first game, play well!"

…

After Miller left, Warriors head coach Adelman walked up to Richard with a wry smile on his face.

He heard the roar here and thought of what happened in their locker room, so he naturally knew what happened.

"Adelman, is this what you said about taking good care of Miller?"

Richard is still angry!

"Lee, hey, you just entered the league, so you may not know Latrell's character..." Adelman sighed.

"No, I know very well!"

"Because it is clear, no matter what happens on the field or what happens next in your locker room, I hope you will turn a blind eye!"

"Actually, you should know that this is a good thing for you. Latrell is definitely not suitable for the Princeton system. You know this better than anyone else!"

Adelman looked at Richard with wide eyes...

what happened? Why does it seem like something is going to happen soon...

Could it be? !

But Adelman quickly overturned his conjecture...

This is just a preseason game, Richard can't be so crazy...

But thinking about Richard's nicknames related to madmen, Adelman felt worried!

Both worry and expectation, this is Adelman's mood!

He knew very well that what Richard said was right. Madman is definitely not suitable for the Princeton system. The Princeton system needs team players, like players like Miller...

Madman is obviously not!

If the madman can really be restrained, then Adelman will undoubtedly be thankful...

…

After the warm-up, players from both teams returned to their respective locker rooms.

"Okay, guys!"

"The next game will be the first official game of many of your NBA careers!"

"The opponent is the Golden State Warriors, the lottery team last season!"

"I don't want to lose, and I believe you don't want to lose either!"

"So, we must win this game!"

"The starting lineup No. 1 comes on, remember, I want to see the defense!"

"Defense!"

"If you make any mistakes on the court, don't expect me to keep you on the court and give you a chance to make up for it!"

"You will be on the bench until the end of this game!"

Richard knocked on the tactical board and said to the players under his hands.

This team has completely followed Richard's plan and built an iron-barrel defensive lineup, at least for now!

Richard must always remind these young people and ensure that all his attention is on the court!

If you really can't prevent it, there's nothing you can do!

But if you don't leak people, it's a matter of attitude, and it's a matter of concentration!

Richard will never tolerate it!

The five starting players all nodded. This is not the first time Richard has said this. From the training camp in mid-September to now, Richard has said this no less than a hundred times!

Only one of these five, Robinson, is a senior player, but Robinson is a player with a relatively easy-to-get-together personality. He has always tried his best to cooperate with the team's arrangements.

For example, after the Blazers left in history, Robinson should have been the boss, but he did not become the boss. He even became the third and fourth player. The number of shots per game was even higher than last season. Five or six times less...

…

The game is about to start, and the home team Trail Blazers are starting to enter!

The order in which players enter is very common. Although there is no explicit rule, generally speaking, the last one to enter the team will be the team leader...

Of course, there are also players who are the first to enter the arena as the boss!

The first person to appear on the Trail Blazers' side was Ben, and the last person to appear was the most senior Sabonis...

None of the fans watching the game knew what this order of appearance meant.

Does that mean Sabonis is the boss of this team? It doesn't seem like it. If Sabonis were five or six years younger, there would be nothing wrong with him being the leader of the Trail Blazers...

But now his physical condition makes it impossible for him to become the leader of the Trail Blazers.

Big Ben? This is even more impossible...

In the same class, there are Kobe Bryant, the eighth pick, and O'Neal, the seventeenth pick. Without playing a formal game, it is impossible to let Kobe be the boss...

Richard ignored the doubts of the fans at the scene. He never thought about who was the boss of this Blazers!

The four newcomers all have the ability to be the boss!

"Coach, we're ready, just watch from the sidelines with peace of mind!" Before taking the stage, Ben whispered to Richard.

Richard nodded.

Evil people have their own trials and tribulations. Let that madman try the power of the West Lafayette gang today!
