Chapter 221 The Storm After the Ticket

In fact, it's not just the Celtics and the Heat who have been staring at how harsh this punishment is. Compared to them, those opponents in the East are more concerned about how these two teams will be suppressed by the league. How miserable.

No way, one of these two teams is the defending champion, and the other is a sudden rise. No matter who is punished harder, other teams will feel that they have taken advantage of it.

Now not only the top teams in the Eastern Conference have this idea, but those chasing players who are preparing to break into the playoffs are even more eager for Stein to be more ruthless this time.

It's just that the league's penalty decision has not been issued for a long time, which makes many teams a little disappointed. In the highly competitive Eastern Conference, many people really hope that the Heat and the Celtics will be unlucky once.

Before the punishment was decided, everyone was secretly guessing, if Stein's big stick was swung this time, how hard it would be to clean up the two sides that caused the trouble, and would someone be banned for a season?

At least in the last conflict at the Palace of Auburn Hills, everyone saw Stein's iron-fisted army. This old guy may not look like a big guy, but when he was about to strike, his mind was definitely ruthless.

The guy who dared to directly fine Artest couldn't play in 73 games, Stephen Jackson was also fined for 30 games, and even guys like O'Neal were banned from participating in 25 games.

Back then, Stein dared to be so ruthless, how could he allow others to challenge the rules he set?

However, compared to the conflict at the Palace of Auburn Hills, the scuffle between the Heat and the Celtics was only between the players, and it had not yet affected the fans in the stands. It was finally controlled within a certain range.

If O'Neill and Chen Feng rushed directly to the stands with their fists pumped, David Stein would never have thought for so long before making a decision. The old guy decided to suspend these two for a whole year right away!

Stein is not afraid to show his toughness in front of anyone. Whether it is labor negotiations or dealing with violence on the field, the majesty of this little man in the league is something that most people dare not challenge.

O'Neal was suspended for 20 games, and Chen Feng was suspended for 15 games. For these two main offenders, Stein was indeed ruthless. Not only was this suspension punished, but he also issued a large fine of 3.5 US dollars each.

If it weren't for the league's regulations that a single ticket should not exceed [-] U.S. dollars, it is estimated that David Stein would definitely not mind using this thing to generate income for the league.

However, compared to the $3 fine, the suspension of O'Neal and Chen Feng is the most troublesome issue for the coaches of the two teams. After all, these two guys are important parts of their respective teams.

It is self-evident what role Chen Feng has for the Celtics. Rivers has thrown such a rookie into the regular starting list. It is conceivable how much he relies on this bald boy.

Not to mention Olney. Originally, the Heat seduced him from the Lakers in order to let him and Wade form a super deterrent duo.

Although now O'Neal said to the outside world, "The Miami Heat will always be Wade's team."

But everyone knows that without this big shark sitting in the paint, the Heat might not have made it to the finals last season, let alone win the championship.

Wade is indeed the mvp of the finals, but if there is no such big shark by his side, it is still unknown who will win the fight between the Mavericks and the Heat.

And if a big guy like O'Neill is on the court, even if he is old, he can still intimidate many people.

With the prestige of the past, the Miami Heat with or without the big sharks is different after all, so when the ticket is issued, the Miami people can't sit still.

It should be said that Stein has already issued the heaviest fines, and not only Chen Feng and O'Neal were fined, but Pierce and Wade were also warned of a one-game suspension and a fine of [-] US dollars.

Jefferson and Haslem were not spared either. They were treated the same as Pierce, with a one-match suspension and a fine of [-] yuan, but compared to Chen Feng and the others, they were obviously much lighter.

Anyway, the vote that participated in the fight that night was gone, including Scarabrine who yelled at Pat Riley, and this guy had to obediently pay a fine of [-] U.S. dollars.

Even the assistant coaches of Thibodeau and the Heat were fined a small sum, and both teams were severely reprimanded by Stein. If there is another time, Stein will probably be more ruthless. Son.

David Stein is using this method to show his authority. Even if someone says that he was too harsh on this conflict, this old guy will not change the decision he has made.

However, if such a big ticket is dropped, the repercussions caused must not be small, otherwise Stein would not have thought about it for so long. For this old guy, he has to weigh a lot of things.

Moreover, one of the teams he wants to punish is the defending champion, and the Celtics have also been gaining momentum recently. Although it is for their own authority to be maintained, it cannot ruin this season.

Stein is still a standard businessman at heart, so he must consider more interests.

If it hurts both the Heat and the Celtics, then the East's playoffs will lack a lot of thrilling things. This old guy doesn't want any impact on ticket sales and TV broadcasts.

In the context of the Heat winning last year's championship, Stein also wanted to change the situation where the west is strong and the east is weak, so that many people would overwhelmingly support the teams in the west and make the east less popular.

So, apart from severely punishing Chen Feng and O'Neill, he didn't deal harshly with others. Although there were quite a few people involved in that match, in Stein's view, killing one to warn others was enough.

It’s just that after weighing the pros and cons in this way, there will still be a backlash. Almost all the media in Miami and Boston immediately exclaimed, “Stan is using his torture again to show his majesty!”

The American media will definitely not care who you are, they even dare to gossip about the president's pornographic news, let alone a little old man like Stein, who is criticized by the media?Isn't that a common thing?

Not to mention him, do you think which politician has not been picked up by this group of media?As long as the media is interested, he can even tell you exactly what color your underwear is every morning.

In the nba league, Stein is the boss, but in the eyes of those media reporters, this old guy is just a ruthless ruler, at least they don't have to look at this old guy's wink and act.

And the media in Miami must shout loudly that O'Neal is really important to them. If this big shark is gone, their insiders will only have Haslem and Mourning.

Mourning's kidneys seem to be a little unstable recently. If Mourning and O'Neal truce at the same time, the Heat's frenzied counterattack after all the hard work may end there.

If you can't keep the top three position, then in the playoffs, the Heat's hard life may have just begun.

After all, there is more than one team holding back their strength to overthrow the defending champion. If it comes to the playoffs, the challenge facing the Heat will be the fiercest!

In addition, some media even made alarmist remarks, "If O'Neal is punished for such a long suspension period, what is left of our team? Do we need to make Wade into a god?"

Although this is a bit alarmist, after all, there are Walker and Payton in the Heat. How can you say that this group of fierce people is always old, but it works anyway. It is indeed a bit exaggerated to say that the Heat will collapse.

But if Mourning and O'Neal both quit, it is estimated that the Heat's chances of hitting the top three or first place in the Eastern Conference must be more and more slim. After all, their inside line is indeed a bit weak.

The media in Miami quit. Similarly, the media in Boston also turned upside down. In the eyes of Murphy and other reporters, that kid Chen Feng fought back because O'Neill struck first!

For these Bostonians who have always been tough in their bones, this is completely reasonable and reasonable, and it is a way to maintain their own safety. Do they really have to wait for that humpback-like guy to kill him before fighting back?

"Is it in Stein's thinking? In the face of violent attacks on the court, all you can do is hold your head?"

The Bostonians are definitely not happy with this punishment, not only because Chen Feng is an indispensable member of the team, but also because this little guy is a player of the Celtics, and Bostonians are famous for protecting their weaknesses.

Even if the team's performance was so sluggish in the past few years, the fans themselves can't wait to point at the players' noses and scold the street every day, but if outsiders say something bad about them, they will attract a lot of scolding.

"Is it our own business, and you have a dime to do with it?" It's okay to beat and scold your own child, but if others point fingers at you, isn't this guy looking for smoke?

So as soon as Stein's ticket came out, the media in Boston reacted fiercely, and those die-hard fans even started to gossip on the NBA's official forum without any scruples.

But this is not only the media on both sides attacking Stein, Miami also pointed the finger at Boston, especially when Riley stood up, the contradiction intensified instantly.

"It was the opponent who provoked with words first, and O'Neal would fight back. If everything that happened on the field is restored, the league's disciplinary committee should be able to clearly know who should be responsible for this conflict!"

"Number 99 of the Celtics, the player I can't name yet, he is like a street ruffian, swearing at my players, he is the fuse that caused the chaos!"

"Many players in the nba have the experience of playing on the street, but I have never seen anyone who can attack others without a limit like him. Look at what he has done in the past [-] games, Wes The special injury, the conflict with Varejao, the malicious injury to LeBron, that guy is doing everything!"

When Riley said these words, the expression of righteous indignation was just like the embodiment of justice.

Especially when a reporter asked him how he commented on Chen Feng, the old fellow even flatly refused. Judging from his intentions, it was obvious that such an evaluation would elevate the other party's status, and he disdained it.

But during the interview, Riley clearly pointed the finger at Chen Feng. He threw all the responsibility on that bald boy, and he didn't hide his dislike for him at all.

In fact, after that chaotic conflict, Riley hadn't moved much, especially when the news broke out about the violence in the arena, the old guy kept silent.

But the ticket was issued, and it was unexpectedly heavy, which made Riley a little restless. He knew how important O'Neal was to the team, and he was really annoyed at Feng Chen!

O'Neill hit someone first, that's right, and because of this, Riley didn't argue too much with the league. After all, fighting on his own territory, no matter how you say it, it can't be justified.

What's more, when O'Neill made a move, almost all the cameras saw it. If there is no punishment, no one can explain this conflict to anyone, but Riley didn't expect it to be so serious.

Twenty games suspended!Regardless of how much income O'Neill will lose during this period, Riley is already a bit of a headache just watching this time, which means that O'Neill doesn't even have to think about playing before February!

It would be fine if it was a weak team during this period, but at this juncture, the Heat will have at least seven or eight fierce battles with the strong teams in the West!Two of them are back to back!

If this is not careful, the victories that have just been accumulated may be lost in less than a month!

And this may form an inertia. When everyone else is working hard in the middle of the season, the Heat will face a tragic setback. Riley doesn't even think about this terrible possibility.

Riley kicked Van Gundy away as the head coach at the beginning, in order to let the Heat win the first championship in the history of his team.

Facts have proved that his ability to control is indeed much better than Van Gundy, but the old guy's method of kicking his predecessor away has been criticized by many people.

But Riley has never considered those issues. He just wants to lead the team to create history, and then write his name into the record. As for the means?That's never been a problem for him to worry about.

The "magic operator" has been in the arena of the nba for almost 30 years, and he has experienced far more things than this kind of small trick. Other people's gossip can't shake his determination.

And history has been made, what else can others say?Even if there are some bad words, everyone can interpret it as envy, jealousy and hatred, not to mention who can bring down Riley in Miami?

It is estimated that except for the big boss of the Heat, no player or fan has this strength.

But this time Riley got angry at Chen Feng because he still wanted to continue the history created and defend the title!This is the ultimate proposition, but now his great idea is about to be overthrown!

Just because of that bald boy!When Riley opened fire in front of the media, he was still itching with hatred for Chen Feng's crimes in Miami.

But before Riley's wave of accusations took effect, he ushered in a counterattack that made him very embarrassed.

"Pat Riley? Uh, sorry, I don't know anything about him." This was the answer of the bald boy when a reporter from Miami interviewed Chen Feng.

But this was definitely not the scene that caused Riley the most internal injuries, because Chen Feng's next sentence was the action of exposing the scars that made him feel the urge to vomit blood the most.

"Oh, I remembered, that guy was cleaned up by my coach once, oh, I almost forgot to say, my first coach is Joe Hammond, the legend of that Rock Park."

In fact, Chen Feng really didn't say anything more. He only said these two sentences when he answered the reporter, but the amount of information in it was enough to keep the reporters busy for a while.

Cleaned up Riley?What does it mean?Joe Hammond?The "Destroyer" at Rock Park?

When many people put these things on their desks to ponder, some dusty past will be revealed by a little gossip. Of course, those things are definitely not what Riley wants to see.

Because, more than 30 years ago, this old guy was really cleaned up by Hammond face to face. Although not many people have actually seen it with their own eyes, that is the fact, and no one can change it.

In fact, Hammond is not the kind of person who is used to exposing other people's backgrounds, but when he saw that guy Riley began to attack Chen Feng without distinction, this old guy who protected his weaknesses couldn't sit still.

Damn, bully my personal apprentice! ?Your uncle, do you really think that I have transformed into a good citizen?You shameless old bastard, you still can't afford to lose just like before!

Hammond really didn't expect that after more than 30 years, the evil he did at the beginning could be used as a counterattack weapon, but his old account book really made Riley a face.

The story is actually very simple. More than 30 years ago, when Hammond was in his prime, his name not only shined in the three-acre land in New York, but also became famous in the NBA.

At that time, the Lakers coach Bill Sharman, who had gathered Chamberlain, West, and Baylor, the Big Three, deliberately dragged Hammond from New York to Los Angeles, trying to recruit this street freak.

However, Hammond had already made a lot of money selling soft drugs at the time, so he didn't consider the annual salary of tens of thousands of dollars at all, so he rejected the call of the Lakers, and he refused all three solicitations.

However, during the Lakers' trial training, this evil old guy once performed a one-on-one performance, that is, he beat the opponent's first-choice player in a few minutes until he could only stop himself with a bad foul.

Although Riley didn't have any bright spots in his player days, but being beaten so embarrassingly by a street bastard, he could only stop the opponent with a foul, which is also a stain.

So when Hammond saw Chen Feng being attacked by Riley like this, he didn't mind being a big talker, making Riley feel uncomfortable in front of the media, and this old guy still had plausible words.

"That guy is just using this method to continue the embarrassment of the year. He couldn't stop me before, but now he can't stop my apprentice. More than 30 years have passed, and that guy hasn't improved at all."

Alright, these few words are actually enough. Riley was planning a more ferocious offensive, but Hammond didn't need to say anything after revealing the truth.

What else?Even if you say it, you still can't beat the master, bullying other apprentices can only make people secretly despise you, and you have to say that you are very narrow-minded, and you have remembered a stupid thing for decades.

This is really yellow mud falling into the pants, it's either shit or shit...

After the ticket was issued, no one expected that there would be such a fierce storm of words between Boston and Miami...

According to Rivers, even if the kid is suspended, he can still disturb the neighborhood...

The storm is still going on, and some things continue to ferment in the storm...
