Chapter 125: Ghost system

　　 The only thing to be thankful is that the Blazers' record is still in the top eight in the West, even if they only have a 50% win rate.
　　 Richard remembers very clearly, the situation is strong at the moment.
　　Eastern side, if you want to enter the playoffs, there is no 50% winning percentage, don't even think about it...
　　 can be in the western side, and even more than 40% of the winning percentage can enter the playoffs.
　　 Of course, the West is not too weak. The top four in the East are all 55 games or more. The top four in the West are the same. There are no more than 55 games in the West.
　　 55 games won, that can be close to 70% of the winning percentage.
　　The league has eight teams with a winning percentage close to 70% in a season. This data is enough to show how exciting basketball is in this era...
　　 There are many strong teams, and the competition is fierce.
　　The 96-97 season has eight teams with more than 55 wins, and the same will be true next season, still eight.
　　 These two seasons are definitely the highlights of the entire NBA history!
　　 Later in the NBA, there was never such a grand event, and even later, it only took 50 wins to sit on the top of the Eastern Record...

　　Richard is currently in the west, the pressure is not too big, as long as he can guarantee a 50% win rate, then he can steadily enter the playoffs!

After the three-game losing streak, the system, which had no sense of existence, released the mission again.
　　 "Mission Name: The Rise of the New Army ①!"
　　 "Mission Objective: In the 1996-1997 season, led the Portland Trail Blazers to a more than 50% win rate and entered the playoffs!"
　　 "Mission reward: primary injury bandage!"
　　 "Primary injury bandage: Players encounter a primary injury within two weeks of the offseason, they can recover within 24 hours after using the primary injury bandage!"
　　 "Note: The bandage props cannot cure the player's glass body, and can only act on a single injury. If the player encounters multiple injuries, the bandage will not work."
　　The lucky dice rewarded from the last mission, Richard has not got it yet, and he has to wait until the end of the season to get it.
　　 And the new task released by the system this time is to reward the props for the primary injury bandage.
　　 The attributes of this prop are not countenance...
　　 It is the occasion of the playoffs where the player suffered a primary injury, this bandage prop can play a role...
　　As for the regular season, primary injuries within two weeks have little effect on the team.
　　 at most means that the team won two or three fewer wins.
　　 value is definitely there, but not so high as to catch Richard's eyes.
　　 If the bandage does not have the remarks, it can play a bigger role.
　　 But now it can only be regarded as a prop that is better than nothing...
　　 Fortunately, Richard had no intention of doing anything bad, so he could do this task.
　　……
　　 The ghost system that he binds, although it is called the devil system, but in Richard's view is a ghost system......
　　 Everyone's system comes out every few days to find a sense of existence, but how many times has this ghost system appeared so far?
It has been two and a half years since Richard traveled, but this ghost system appears four times in total.
　　 Not even every half a year!
　　 If it didn't come out this time, Richard really has almost forgotten that he is the host of the system.
　　……
　　The Trail Blazers lost three games in a row and lost three games in a row. This hasn’t caused much discussion in the league...
　　In the eyes of most fans, this is purely normal. Although it is a team coached by Richard, after all, it is a new army. How can it always maintain a record comparable to the Bulls.
　　 Even the Blazers now have a 50% win rate. In the eyes of fans, there is still a lot of room for decline.

　　 Quicken Loans Arena.
　　 Today's game is the last game of the Blazers' four consecutive games. Richard and assistants arranged tactics in the locker room.
　　Carlisle answered the phone and happily told Richard that Bruce Bowen found it!
　　This shocked Richard's spirit!
　　After Bowen, his own lineup is almost truly perfect!
　　 The frontcourt has a big job of doing dirty work, and the backcourt has Bowen. In this case, it is difficult for opponents to restrain the pioneers in the lineup.
　　 "Contact him immediately and give him a three-year guarantee contract, the specific amount, let Orsh they talk to Bowen!"
　　 "I will do this quickly. When I return to Portland, I want to see Bowen's contract on my desk!"
　　 Carlisle did not ask why he valued a 25-year-old lost draft so much, and still had to sign a three-year guarantee contract!
　　 It seems very strange, but Carlisle understands Richard's intentions.
　　 That is to continue to strengthen the backcourt...
　　 Bowen is a player that Carlisle is not familiar with, but he is familiar with Richard, and he is well aware of Richard's spiciness in selecting people!
　　 Speaking of fact, Carlisle had originally predicted that the Blazers would start quite miserably.
　　 But now the results, in Carlisle's view, are already quite good, at least a lot better than he intended!

　　 "Okay, guys, the opponent is a knight!"
　　 "Last season, their winning percentage was close to 60% and they were an extremely strong opponent!"
　　 "But I want to win this game!"
　　 "Three-game losing streak is already the limit I can bear!"
　　Richard screamed at the player under his hand.
　　 The morale of the team is affected by the three-game losing streak, Richard must find a way to improve the morale of the team!
　　 What Richard said right now is a way to improve his morale!
　　 Last season's Cavaliers are undoubtedly strong, but this season's Cavaliers may not be as strong as before. The six games they have played so far are not as good as the Trail Blazers, with only 2 wins and 4 losses.
　　Last night, Richard and Stevens had been studying the Cavaliers' game video in the hotel.
　　 They suddenly found that this knight compared to the knight of last season, although the lineup has not changed much, but the strength has dropped a lot.
　　 has a chance to win!
At present, Richard deliberately tells the Cavaliers' record last season~EbookFREE.me~ is to win this game, so that this group of young people realize that their strength is not bad, if they are poor, how can they win The Cavaliers ranked fourth in the East next season.
If you win, the morale will definitely rise!
　　 Even if it loses, it has no effect, what is the difference between a three-game losing streak and a four-game losing streak.
　　 "Okay, it's time to enter, cheer up!"
　　 "Let the world see the strength of our Portland Trail Blazers!"
　　……
　　 "Ben, you wait until you enter, follow me!" Richard called out Big Ben before he went out.
　　 The other players have started to enter the stadium in turn, and Big Ben followed Richard at the back of the team.
　　 "Ben, your recent state is wrong. In the last game, you only got seven rebounds!" Richard asked in a low voice.
　　 Big Ben's complexion turned red: "I'm sorry, coach..."
　　 "Don't say sorry to me, remember the first game you played for me?"
　　 "I said to you at that time, you didn't play well, and you're really sorry for yourself! Do you think a blue-collar insider with an average of seven or eight rebounds can get a big contract?!"
　　 "You are the only player of our West Lafayette, so far the only player who still plays under my hands!"
　　 "Maybe in the next few years, you are still the only one!"
　　 "I am a boiler worker's coach, you are the leader of the boiler worker. If the two of us work together and play the same record, what do you think your little brothers will think of you?!"
　　Richard stared closely at Big Ben's eyes.
　　 Big Ben shocked, clenched his fists, and said to Richard.
　　 "Coach, watch this game for me!"
