Paul Allen's end-of-season celebration was again held at Octopus.

It's a bigger battle than last time, but the boys are all people who have seen the world, and this time it's quite restrained.

Richard is not a bit of meat at all, not that he is noble, how unruly he is, but when he thinks of that kind of dirty thing, his mind immediately remembers the face of his daughter-in-law in his previous life.

I immediately lost interest......

For three days, Richard kept writing "Violent Black", which is the main source of Richard's income at the moment.

By mid-June, the Trail Blazers' first joint tryouts began.

There were a total of twenty people on the trial list that Richard gave Stevens, and these twenty people had one thing in common, that is, they were all big players.

Although Stevens had some doubts in his heart, he still did as Richard told him and sent out trial requests to each player on the list.

Because the Trail Blazers have so many draft picks on hand, Stevens originally thought Richard would diversify his investments and pick a rookie at every position he could.

But now judging from the trial list given by Richard, Richard's thinking is obviously different from Stevens.

Stevens thinks about Richard's arrangement, in fact, there is still some truth, Sabonis has already confirmed his departure, the team lacks a center, it may be to add a decent backup center, and it makes perfect sense to select a group of big men to try out.

Michael Olowokandi, Liv Lafrentz, Michael Doriac, Dion Clark, Rasu Nesterovic, Al Harrington, Rashad Lewis, Stepania, Ryan Stark and many more......

There are the hot No. 1 pick Oloo Kandi, the top three picks in the prediction Lafrentz, the two interior players in the lottery pick, Doriac and Clarke, and the two high school big men Harrington and Lewis......

There are also some lesser-known players who are predicted to be selected at the bottom of the second round, or may even be lost!

But these players all have a common characteristic, that is, they are big, the shortest Harrington is 206 cm, and no one in the 20-man list is shorter than Harrington......

……

Most of the team's tryouts have actually been completed in the playoffs, and the Bulls' first two days of tryouts have also been completed, and they don't have so many draft picks in their hands, so the tryouts are fairly simple and only last half a day......

Right now, the league is left with the Trail Blazers trying out yet, and everyone is staring at the Trail Blazers.

Richard's selection vision, needless to say, the entire alliance is unconvinced!

After two full seasons in the NBA, Richard led the Trail Blazers' two-year draft, and the gains were huge!

Kobe, Xiao Ao, and Big Ben are all super newcomers selected by Richard through the draft, and that's not the point, the point is that Kobe, the highest pick among the three, is only the seventh pick.

And Stephen Jackson and Bruce Bowen, the two outstanding Trail Blazers substitutes, are newcomers that Richard picked up almost for nothing.

Counting Purdue's lineup that beat the NCAA, it is enough to show how vicious Richard's vision is.

Now the teams are keeping an eye on the Trail Blazers' tryouts, and they have even bought off the staff at the Rose Garden Arena in the hope of getting the first hand on the news!

This kind of thing is not uncommon among teams, and teams buy off other teams' staff, which may be security guards guarding the gate, aunts who do cleaning, or even management with status, so as to get first-hand information about their teams.

Richard naturally didn't worry about this kind of thing, the more such "spies" the better, if no one knew about the trial process, Richard's plan would not be able to happen.

……

On June 20, there was only one week left until the start of the draft.

At this point in time, I am afraid that the Trail Blazers have also broken the NBA historical record, the latest time in the entire history of the trial.

"Coach, Olovocandi and Lafrenz turned down the tryout, and I found two big men in the list who looked good to replace them, exactly twenty people!" Stevens briefed Richard the day before the tryout.

The tryouts have all arrived in Portland, with only Olovo Candi and Lafrentz, two of the top three picks, turning down the tryout offer.

This is normal, after all, the Trail Blazers' highest draft pick is only the seventh pick, and with the draft conference approaching, they are naturally reluctant to come.

The others are different, Doriac and Clark, although they are also popular candidates for the lottery, but they are estimated to be at the bottom of the list, and if they can be selected by Richard's No. 7 pick, they will naturally not miss this opportunity.

Now the whole world knows that Lao Sa has already decided to leave the team, and the Trail Blazers are missing a backup center.

If he can be selected by the Trail Blazers, he may be able to win the championship with the team in his rookie season, and this kind of beautiful thing is not a fool's choice.

"Well done! Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock in the morning, we will gather at our training ground, although it is a closed trial, but everyone in the team, including the logistics staff, will come and see together......" Richard said with a smile.

……

At eight o'clock the next morning, Richard showed up in the arena on time, and the twenty newcomers who had received the tryout, how dare they be late at such a moment, and they were now fully equipped to warm up.

The team's executives and logistics staff are also all here, although the trial has nothing to do with them, but they are idle anyway, and it's good to come and see the excitement.

"Stevens, take them to do the physical test data first!"

"By the way, I'm going to do a little bit with the data of these people......," Richard pointed to several people on the list, some of whom exaggerated the physical measurements, and some of whom shrunk the data......

About two hours later, the body measurement data was released.

Although the NBA official has already done a physical test during the joint tryout, that thing is too wet, so each team will have another trial when they try out within the team.

Richard took the hot body test data sheet and said to the twenty newcomers.

"Rashad Lewis, Tyson Wheeler, Ryan Stark......"

"I'm sorry to inform you that your physical test data is not up to standard and you can't enter the next round of tryouts!"

There are exactly six players who have been named, and they are dumbfounded, and this is the end of the trial?

They didn't even show off their skills, and they were eliminated......

Just because the physical test is not qualified?! The six looked at each other, and they were now curious to know what Richard's criteria were for qualification.

……

The six of them left the training ground with regretful faces, and Richard handed the physical test data sheet to Olhi and them.

"No wonder you can't enter the next round of trials, the physical test data of these people is too rubbish!"

"I feel that at my age, the data measured by my body is estimated to be better than these people!"

"Hey, today's young people, one generation is not as good as the next, and I don't know how to practice!"

The physical test data sheet was passed among the executives and support staff, and everyone sighed......
