After getting the list given by Richard, Philip Sr. and Little Bronny didn't sleep all night.

In their opinion, this list is definitely worth tens of millions of dollars, if not more......

Their view is definitely not a joke, boilermen have won the championship in the past two years, and they can create tens of millions of dollars in gross income for boilermen every year!

And NCAA players don't have to pay salaries, except for some small expenses, most of them are pure income!

It seems that such a list may only be able to introduce a few players for the boilermen in the end, but these players are able to keep the boilermen in the position of NCAA hegemon and maintain super high profitability!

In the last list given by Richard, in the end they only recruited two people......

This made them realize that they had to hire some talent who was specifically responsible for recruiting players, and that every player on the roster was a huge asset, and that recruiting one more would give the boilermakers more confidence in their survival.

Psychologist, negotiator, emotional coach......

Anyway, it is a talent who can speak well and the like, and the boilermaker directly recruited five, specifically responsible for recruiting the players on Richard's list!

In Black March, Little Brownie did not appear on the sidelines of the court, and started the recruitment journey with these talents!

……

The list has been given, and Richard will have to wait for news, after all, he still has a lot of work to do here in the NBA.

The Trail Blazers' schedule in March is quite dark......

It was so dark that Richard was speechless, and at the beginning of the month, there was a wave of four consecutive away games, against the Bulls, SuperSonics, Jazz and Heat.

All of them are the best teams in the league......

In these four games, the first three were lost directly, and the last two broke out in Big Ben and Rashid, which can be regarded as ending the losing streak and snatching a victory from the Heat.

The Trail Blazers are basically coming to an end now, and the easy and easy schedule that started the season is gone......

In mid and late March, the Trail Blazers encountered the Lakers twice......

After narrowly beating the Lakers in the first game by slashing sharks, they played the Lakers once in January, but O'Neal's free throws were good in that meeting, and the Trail Blazers lost in the end......

The Lakers won all the two games they played with the Lakers in March, and even if O'Neal didn't have a good hand in one of the games, they won the final victory.

This made Richard's eggs hurt quite a bit......

Because even if their Trail Blazers' record declines again in March, they can still rank fifth in the West, and their opponents in the first round of the playoffs will definitely be the Lakers......

The 1-3 record in the regular season is certainly not a good sign.

But for this bad omen, Richard is also completely wrong, after all, the players under his hands are all newcomers, and it is impossible to beat Ao Fat overnight......

Unless the system suddenly rewarded Richard with a few powerful props, so that the strength of the newcomers of the Trailblazers increased by leaps and bounds.

But Richard felt that the urine of his system must not be such a cheap thing......

It's been almost three years, pretending to be dead every day, completely ignoring the host's feelings.

……

Whether he can win the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs, Richard has no bottom in his heart.

At the moment, we can only take one step at a time.

If you want to win, all the premise is to be based on being able to prevent Ao Fat, otherwise it will be in vain.

At present, Big Ben has not yet reached his peak, and he can't bear Ao Fat under the basket at all......

This makes the Trail Blazers very passive.

……

At the end of the March season, the Trail Blazers had a 41-34 record, a 55 percent win percentage.

The Trail Blazers still have the last seven games left in April, and even if they lose all, a 41-41 win rate of exactly 50% will still allow the Trail Blazers to retain the fifth place in the West......

If this record is placed in the East, it will be more tragic that it will not be able to enter the playoffs......

The first four games in April were against the Spurs, Pistons, Hawks and Nets.

The Trail Blazers have a two-win, two-loss record, including against the Spurs, where the opponent clearly wants to lose......

The last three games, all of which were home to the Trail Blazers, and the opponents were not too strong, and the Trail Blazers had a good record of 2 wins and 1 loss.

Since then, all 82 games in the regular season have been played, and the Trail Blazers have a record of 45 wins and 37 losses, ending the regular season journey this season.

This record is naturally not very outstanding, 54.8% of the winning rate in the East, just touching the threshold of the playoffs, the eighth bullet in the East is 44 wins, and the Magic in the seventh place in the East is 45 wins, like the Trail Blazers......

But such a rebuilding team, without experiencing labor pains, played fifth in the West in the first season of rebuilding, even the most discerning fans can't be harsh.

In the starting lineup, there are four first- and second-year freshmen, and the average age of the overall lineup is the youngest in the league.

……

After the final game of the regular season against the Orlando Magic, Richard received two messages in a row.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the "Talent Reserve" quest and getting a one-time consumable item - Lucky Dice!"

"Congratulations to the host for completing the "Rise of the New Army" series of missions (1) and obtaining a one-time consumable item - Primary Injury Bandage!"

Getting two mission rewards in a row, Richard is still quite excited......

Although these two items will not have much effect on the upcoming playoffs, these two items will definitely come in handy in the future......

……

"Lee, this is a table of the season's average technical per game for the players on our team this season." Carlisle handed Richard a form.

The table details the technical stats of each Trail Blazers player this season.

At the moment, the Trail Blazers' coaching staff is in a meeting to study the playoff matchup strategy......

To put it bluntly, it is to study how to get past the Lakers.

Richard took the form and glanced at it, in fact, he had a general idea in mind.

Big Ben played in 82 games all season, starting 82 games, averaging 34 minutes per game, chipped in 3.7 points, 11.2 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 2.7 blocks and 1.1 steals.

It is no exaggeration to say that with this data of Big Ben, in previous years, he is definitely qualified to be selected for the best rookie team......

Selected as a center!

But because of the presence of Marcus Camby, the star of the '96 class, Big Ben is expected to be selected to the rookie second team.

Like Big Ben, Camby also plays both center and power forward......

But Marcus Camby's rookie season averaged 15 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 2.1 blocks and 1 steal per game, which is really better than Big Ben......

Big Ben's problem is to score, and it's hard to compete with Camby because it's not even a fraction of Camby's score.
