Bishop of the Devil

Green's words spoke the thoughts of many people. Many people in the queue nodded, obviously thinking that Green was right.

"Hmph, you are a coward whose courage was eaten by a dog!" When Ben saw that someone was questioning Richard's words, he snorted coldly and looked at Jerome Green fiercely!

From Big Ben's point of view, Richard is his God, who gave him the opportunity to join a famous basketball school like Purdue University, so no matter what Richard says, he will trust him without hesitation.

After Jerome Green was scolded, he looked at Ben Wallace with a blank face. He didn't expect that a rookie who had just joined the team would dare to scold him so blatantly? !

Although this rookie looks a bit fierce...

…

Seeing that the team was about to start fighting among themselves before the game started, Richard waved his hand directly.

Green's words did not make Richard angry, but instead made him laugh.

"Guys, I know your thoughts very well, that is, you feel that the team is weak now and has no hope of winning the championship!"

"The biggest reason why you think so is that the big dog who was just selected with the No. 1 pick left the team, right?"

"But I want to say that our team is not weak!"

Richard straightened his back, cleared his throat, and continued.

"The big dog is indeed strong, but I can guarantee that there will be another number one pick among the ten of you!"

This sentence was said with great force, and Richard's eyes were fixed on the player in front of him like a sharp blade!

"And I can guarantee that at least two of you players will have no lower achievements than Big Dog in the future!"

"At least three of you will become NBA All-Stars!"

"At least four people can enter the NBA and become professional players with an annual salary of millions!"

Richard's volume gradually increased, and his voice resounded throughout the empty arena!

Especially the last sentence, Richard's chest burst out with amazing energy. Two players were frightened and took a few steps back. At that moment, they felt that Richard was about to burst out and hurt someone!

The entire arena was eerily quiet, and you could hear a pin drop!

After some roaring, Richard turned into the gentle young man again, and continued with a smile on his face.

"These are the guarantees I give you, just like I guarantee that we can win the national competition!"

"You may not believe it, but time will prove everything!"

"In two years, no, it is very likely that it will only take one year, and you will know that my guarantee today is as accurate as God's prophecy!"

After Richard finished speaking, he disbanded the team without saying anything more, turned around and left the arena.

Time is too precious. Although the team cannot train at the moment, Richard has countless tasks on his hands that need to be done...

The first is the team's tactical issues, the offensive tactical system and the defensive tactical system. This is the problem that Richard needs to solve most at the moment!

The tactics used by the previous head coach were run-and-gun tactics and the popular triangle offense in today's NBA. The lineup formed by Richard obviously cannot use the previous tactics. He must come up with a more suitable tactical system!

…

Richard left the arena, leaving behind a dull group of people, especially those who were familiar with Richard, looking at each other in confusion...

Old Philip can be said to have watched Richard grow up. He has been working with Richard since he was the student player manager of the team!

In his heart, Richard is a gentle young man who always speaks slowly and calmly, without being impatient or impatient. After so many years of getting along, he has never seen the side of Richard just now!

At a certain moment, Old Philip felt that that was not Richard at all, at least not the Richard he knew!

"Is this the so-called power that makes people crazy?" Old Philip smiled bitterly and shook his head...

Not only Old Philip, but also the old players of those teams are also very familiar with Richard, and have known each other for at least a year. Like Old Philip, they have never seen Richard like this before!

The four newcomers to the team were shocked, but what they focused on was the content of Richard's words!

Especially Iverson, he is extremely confident in his own ability. In fact, if it weren't for the things he did when he was young and frivolous, the major basketball schools would probably fight for him!

He had a premonition in his heart, a strong premonition!

The number one pick that Richard promised must be him!

Thinking of this, Iverson's expressionless face suddenly became energetic. He stared at Richard's retreating back and secretly clenched his fists.

Not only Iverson, but Ben and Brent Barry also had surprises on their faces. They also had a strong premonition that they must be part of the guarantees mentioned by Richard!

Even the most reserved and shy Miller is feeling excited at this moment. He does not have too high expectations. Even if he becomes one of the four players with an annual salary of millions guaranteed by Richard, that is enough for Miller, who was born in rural Indiana. Le directly reached the pinnacle of life.

…

Several old players also saw the excitement on the faces of the four newcomers. They originally wanted to say a few words to teach these rookies a lesson, just to have fun...

But when he saw Big Ben's towering biceps and his fierce, thug-like face, he immediately gave up the idea.

There are human beings who are born with a fierce look and a natural bully face, which makes people look intimidated, and Daben obviously falls into this category.

Several old players also felt aggrieved. The old players on the school team could bully the rookies, but they couldn't. It was really aggrieved...

If Richard knew what these old players were thinking, they would probably die of joy...

Are these people you found so easily bullied?

Ben and Iverson are masters who cannot afford to suffer, whether on or off the court, if they are really bullied, they may really be able to fight for it.

And Miller, the white center, seems to be dumbfounded and a little shy, but if he is anxious, he is a vicious tiger. Even O'Neal can face hard steel, let alone these people...

As for Xiaoli, he is also the son of a famous veteran, and he is also a senior, so he is not considered a newcomer.

…

The newly admitted players have all started their colorful college life. The players of these school teams are simply human seeding machines in college. There are countless girls who are willing to spend the night with them...

But Richard has been working hard during this month, thinking hard about the team's tactical system for the new season!

The defensive system was immediately determined by Richard and Philippe Sr., which was to adopt the defensive secret that Syracuse University has used for decades - zone defense.

The reason why he chose this defensive tactic is because Richard clearly remembers that Syracuse University won the national championship in 2003 by relying on this unremarkable tactic!

It is worth mentioning that the MOP of that tournament was Melo Anthony, the third overall pick in the 2003 draft.

Zone defense tactics are extremely common in both the NCAA and NBA. It is a basic defensive system, but Richard decided on it without saying a word.

The main reason lies in Iverson...

Iverson's defense is a long-standing problem. Even die-hard Iverson fans can't solve this problem. However, zone defense can solve this problem very well, making Iverson's defensive shortcomings less obvious. .

…

The defensive tactical system was finalized, but the subsequent offensive tactical system was really torturous and made Richard miserable!

Logically speaking, since the team has Brad Miller, it is a very good choice for the team to play the Princeton system...

After all, the most basic requirement of the Princeton system is to have an organizational center like Miller in the team. Inside passing and inside command are the characteristics of the Princeton system.

When Richard knew that the team already had Miller, he had envisioned the use of this tactic. Richard knew very well that Miller was probably the strongest organizing center in the NCAA today. If he did not play the Princeton system, it would be really difficult. What a waste of natural resources!

But now the question is, what should Iverson do if he plays Princeton?

Iverson's entire career, in a nutshell, is a history of blood and tears in which he is not suitable for the Princeton system...
