Bishop of the Devil

Chapter 575

In d'antony's office.

Suns boss Robert Saville, a pain in the face, how he did not expect, good end to play a common away game, even caused so much trouble.

If you say you don't mess with anyone, you have to mess with Richard.

The Suns didn't have a press conference after the game. Just after the game, they flew back to Phoenix.

Saville called for d'antony to discuss the solution.

"Boss, this is my fault. I should have stopped hunter at that time." Said d'antony bitterly.

Saville waved his hand directly, shook his head and said, "I know it's nothing to do with you. It's hunter's own death."

"Now that this guy's got us in such a big trouble, let's get him out of bed tomorrow." Saville was angry and ready to go straight to hunt.

Hunter's own trading value is not big, but it must be a little trading value. But the problem is that now hunter is a time bomb. Who dares to buy him.

Now, if the Suns show an apology, they can only open up hunter.

Saville was a businessman, a profit-seeking businessman. He didn't want to have any conflict with Richard's hob meat.

He is very clear, once there is a conflict, it is not a good thing for their suns

D'antony nodded. In the current situation, it's only for hunter.

I can't help it. Who let the Suns be unreasonable? The first thing to do is Hunt

"Man, don't worry too much about it. I have a good relationship with Paul Allen. I'll have a chance to talk to Richard about it."

Saville patted d'antony on the shoulder, signaling him not to worry too much about it.

In the eyes of Saville, the ability of d'antony, although his qualifications are not very deep, but the ability to coach is completely unspeakable.

At least, it's much better than the previous managers of the suns.

D'antony nodded, and now he could only go one step at a time.

I hope it won't be too much trouble. I hope Saville can ask Paul Allen to help persuade Richard.

……

"Mr. President, are you not angry?" Xiao Hua was stunned. He received a call from stern and asked him to come to the meeting. He thought Stern was angry and began to smash things in his office.

To his surprise, Stern's expression was quite calm.

This made Xiao Warner bored. You should know that everything Richard provoked before made stern furious.

However, in terms of the seriousness of the fight just happened, it's enough to rank first in the NBA history. Stern is so calm, which is a little unreasonable.

"It's anger, Adam, but I don't think it's a bad thing."

"The new pirates need to be famous and open up the market. I think this is not a bad thing for the pirates." Stern said with a smile.

Xiao Hua nodded. There's nothing wrong with that. Judging from the feedback from the on-site staff, it can definitely help the pirates open up the market.

This may allow the pirates to grab some fans' attention from the Jaguars.

Xiao Hua is probably up to stern

He stern did not like Richard very much, or even hate him.

But in front of the interests of the alliance, he saw it clearly.

Stern's goal is to lead the NBA out of the NFL League and become the first of the four major leagues in North America.

Any chance to improve the influence of NBA, stern is absolutely not willing to miss.

In Charlotte, the basketball atmosphere is not very good. Because of the existence of the Jaguar team, the previous Hornets have not made much profit.

In terms of player popularity, the hornet player also has little popularity, far less than the star of the Jaguar team.

Now Richard took over the pirates, which gave stern a glimmer of hope.

Hope to defeat NFL in Charlotte.

Xiao Hua was almost a roundworm in Stern's stomach. He knew Stern's idea at the first time.

"But, Mr. President, although this incident is beneficial to us, there must be some punishment, right?"

"Of course, punishment should be given according to the normal level. You should not be partial to one party or deliberately target one party."

Stern said with a smile.

Xiao Hua nodded, turned and left the office, and began to work on the next punishment plan.

……

Stern's handling plan, let Xiao Hua heart silently praise, in front of the big right and big wrong, stern is quite clear.

I'm afraid that the small-minded president will take this opportunity to rectify Richard.But think about it. I'm afraid I can't be the president of the league.

The president of the League said that he was a senior worker, serving the owners of 30 teams in the league.

To describe this position exactly is like the role of a conductor.

The team owners are members of the band.

If a band has no conductor or poor command, the overall level will be affected, but Qu'er can still play, just a bad point.

Without these musicians, a band with only one conductor can't play any music.

There is no doubt that Stern is an excellent band conductor. Under his leadership, the NBA is growing rapidly, and now it is ranked second in the four major leagues in North America.

Of course, the position of the second place is not stable, and the latter may catch up at any time.

After Xiao Hua, who is also a good conductor, came on the court, the NBA was really stable in the second place.

It is because of Xiao Hua's ability that the future NFL bosses want to poach Xiao Hua from the NBA, even at the price of $220 million in five years.

……

In the early morning of the next day, many fans did not wake up, and NBA officials issued a punishment plan.

From this we can see how efficient Xiao Hua is in his work. There is no drag at all.

On the Suns side, only one hunter has been banned.

A fine of $25000 and a 15 match ban

That's what Stern said about how to punish. Players of different grades will definitely suffer different punishment in the face of such things.

as like as two peas Malone, who had done exactly the same thing as Hunter, Malone had only banned one match.

When it comes to the edge players like hunt, it can't be a game. It's 15 times more than that!

only one hunter from the Suns has been punished, which is quite normal. After all, when there is a conflict, the Suns are all stupid.

By the time they responded that they wanted to help hunt, Malone and Pippen had stopped them from approaching the regiment.

It also allowed them to avoid being punished by the alliance.

Fans and the media watched the punishment plan of the Suns, and immediately continued to watch. Their most concern was not the punishment of the Suns, but the pirate team.

It's very likely that the punishment of the pirates will set a historical record.

……

The first to be punished was Richard.

Ten match suspension, with a fine of 300000 US dollars

The punishment plan of 300000 fine in the back, fans and the media directly ignored, Richard was so rich, these 300000 dollars for him, it was totally water sprinkling.

Ten suspensions? Only ten?

All parties looked at the figure, some did not respond.

It seems that the punishment is too light

Before Richard I, such punishment was quite serious.

But now Richard's No. 1 law has been issued. This law is directly named after Richard, which is absolutely a typical example of knowingly committing crimes.

Stern only got ten penalties?!

In the speculation of all parties, they decided that the penalty imposed by the League on Richard would never be less than the 20 match ban.

Next comes the punishment of Maureen and Pippen.

the two people as like as two peas are punished, and they are all banned for ten matches, with a fine of fifteen thousand dollars.

To be serious, the two veteran generals' actions are actually more serious than Hunter's.

But for such a meritorious veteran, there must be some preferential treatment from the league.

Although there is no such blatant partiality as Malone, we can slightly reduce the number of banned matches, and no one can find out the problem.

The final penalty is Dako Milicic.

This punishment makes everyone calm

Eight suspensions, plus a $15000 fine?!

Is this punishment a joke? How could it be so light

In the eyes of the public, Milicic may be the biggest culprit of the League punishment. His ban will definitely reach more than 15 games, which can never be lower than hunter.

But now the truth is that the League doesn't seem to think about him.

It's a little strange. I don't understand

Milicic is not a star. Why can he get this kind of preferential treatment? !

in their eyes, Milicic is not a star, but in the eyes of stern and Xiao Hua, Milicic is a player they attach great importance to.

It's no secret that Richard places great importance on Milicic.

Since Richard valued him so much, there must be something extraordinary about him.This point, whether stern or Shaw, is absolutely certain.

At present, although the pirate team's fame has come out, no one is sure how long it will last.

Maybe ten and a half days later, the fans forget it

It's possible to keep the attention of these fans only if there's a superstar like figure in the team.

In Stern's and Shaw's view, only Milicic in the pirate team can undertake this task.

At least in the short term, this burden can only be shouldered by Milicic.

…… After the decision of

's official punishment came out, Li Chade relieved. Stern's old boy was really awesome enough this time, and the punishment was far below Li Chade's expectation.

In this game, if stern really plays hard, not only these people will be punished, but igodara and Ariza are also doomed.

These two also kicked hunter in the chaos of war

But it's clear that Stern is too lazy to pursue these details.

"Would you like to call and thank the old man stern?"

"Come on, don't do it. The old man will probably get a heart attack if he hears my voice."

The phone didn't call, but Richard wrote down the favor. He owed stern a favor.

……

"Hey, what's the matter with you boy again?"

"Tiana is pregnant. You are going to be a father, so you can't be a real boss?"

"What do you want me to say about you? Saville called me just now. Let me say sorry to you. Their suns will explain it to you."

"Remember later, don't be so impulsive. If you see a player who is upset, don't overdo it. Let's take care of him slowly."

Paul Allen, the uncle, called Richard. As soon as the phone was connected, Paul Allen was the only one to complain.

Richard smiled bitterly. It was really good to have such a local uncle.

Saville is the boss of the suns. Richard must know that. He didn't expect Saville would call Paul Allen to ask for help.

But it's also normal to think about it. Richard is in a huff right now. Even if Saville has Richard's phone call, he will not call by himself, and may create a new conflict.

"Well, Paul, I see..."

"But this time, you should know, it's all the Suns' fault."

"I think I'm right. Wait and see what kind of explanation the Suns give me. If not, I won't let the Suns go."

Richard told Paul Allen the real idea in his heart directly. Angry Paul Allen scolded Richard again.

……

If Richard is not satisfied with the next move of the Suns, he will not let the Suns go.

Although the next game against the Suns, but also in late March next year, near the end of the season.

But as the saying goes, it's not too late for a gentleman to revenge. Richard can afford to wait. It's only a few months

Anyway, the Suns have names, and they can't run.

……

That afternoon, the Suns released their official announcement.

With Okur back from injury, the team will give up his contract after Steven Hunt's suspension.

Hunter signed a one-year no guarantee contract with the Suns this year, i.e. Okur was injured. It's his turn to start

Otherwise, this kind of insecure contract player is basically the team's cannon fodder.

……

The fans were stunned when they saw the official announcement of the suns. What is the operation of the suns?

Why do you have to wait until the end of the ban to give up someone else's contract

There's no salary for suspension. It's hard not to let Hunter spend a month in Phoenix. He can't do anything and can't get a dime of salary?!

It's definitely a dirty operation, but there's nothing wrong with it.

No guarantee contract, the player is the meat on the chopping block, the team wants to do what you do.

……

Although the Suns gave an explanation that the reason they gave up hunt was because Okur came back from injury, but this explanation was completely intended to cover up in the eyes of many fans.

To be honest, I didn't want to open hunter's knife, and then let Richard calm down.

……

That's not all. After the official announcement of the Suns, coach d'antony called Richard again.

"Li, this time things are really wrong." D'Antoni is a modest man in the coaching community, whether speaking or doing things, it is relatively mild.

Previously, he had been in touch with Richard when he was in charge of nuggets for half a season in 1998-99.At that time, Richard was absolutely satisfied, quite young, and led the pioneers to the championship.

In addition, Richard's impression of d'antony is very good, so the relationship between the two is OK.

When d'antony joined the suns in 2003, Richard also called to congratulate d'antony.

In Richard's view, d'antony is a master of a generation of people, especially in the offensive attainments, can be called a unique.

That is to say, when he was in charge of suns, he had the best chance to win the championship in the season. Xiaosi reimbursed

When he was in charge of the Rockets, the season with the best chance of winning the championship, Paul was injured again.

If it wasn't for this bad luck, the attacking master wouldn't be without a championship ring.

……

During the player's time, D'Antoni, although he didn't play for many years in the NBA, was quite a sight in the Italian League.

He is the Grandmaster of Italian men's basketball team.

As a kid, Kobe Bryant lived in Italy. He was a fan of D'Antoni and even imitated his game style.
