On January 18, after the Warriors played against the San Antonio Spurs at home, an explosive piece of news made the headlines in the MiLijia basketball circle:

"The Spurs' No. 3 pick had another conflict on the court, and his fellow second-round pick was beaten up!"

"The gentleman thug hits with a heavy elbow, claiming to defeat all the first-round picks in the same class, Draymond Green follows in the footsteps of Howard……"

"After the game, the Warriors rookie, a senior from Michigan State University, was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. The doctor diagnosed that he had suffered a severe blow to the head and was at risk of severe concussion!"

"The second-round pick made outrageous remarks before the game, played dirty tricks during the game, and was brutally punished by the gentleman thug WLF-style on-court sanctions!"

"……"

The public opinion storm of the Millionaire family was once again stirred up because of the word"Joey". When the league president Stern heard the news, he had a headache.

He called the league's public relations team to guide public opinion overnight, and also set up a temporary investigation committee to thoroughly investigate the cause of the accident on the court.

When they learned that it was Green who first provoked Joey with"bold words" before the game and then committed a foul against Joey during the game, everyone was shocked.���Including the league's president, Mr. Stern, they all cursed in their hearts:

You idiot, why did you mess with this kind-looking but evil"evil star", you deserve it!

During the game, Green committed a flagrant foul and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment by Joey's subconscious"pulling".

Two hours later, Green was out of danger. After waking up from a coma, he learned two pieces of news that almost made him despair:

First, the league conducted a professional team investigation into his bad behavior on the court, and immediately suspended him for three games and fined him fifteen thousand US dollars.

Second, the doctor told him the results of the examination. The right side of his chin was fractured where he was hit, and he needed to use external medical equipment to fix it for one and a half months. The brain CD showed that he had a mild concussion in his head and needed to rest for at least two months! The first league punishment was enough to make the"Golden State Leech" collapse. The second bad news directly sent Green into the"Ice Hell"."——

This wave is"losing both the wife and the soldiers". Green, who finally established a rotation position in the team, dared not imagine whether the Warriors would still have a place for him when he returned to the court two months later.

At this moment, several teeth fell out, and Green was in excruciating pain when he opened his mouth. He couldn't speak. Looking at the league's ticket, he finally realized what it means to"want to cry but have no tears".

The most important thing is that Green was beaten, and the result of this game was still a loss. After Green was rushed to the hospital, the referee and the technical staff repeatedly watched the video, and finally determined that Joey did not deliberately make"injurious actions", so he let the latter stay on the court.

In the last minute, Joey, who insisted on playing, played a 7:3 offensive climax with the demon sword and Leonard, and successfully overtook the score.

In the end, the Warriors also lost the game at home with a score of 113:111.

As Joey left the stadium under the protection of security personnel and rushed to the hotel, angry Warriors fans surrounded the bus and threw beer, coffee, snacks and other miscellaneous items at the Spurs players.

Especially Joey, who was the most closely protected by Oracle Arena security, heard the roar of Warriors fans in his ears for half an hour from the time he entered the player tunnel to the time he left the arena:

"Murderer! This bastard is a murderer!"

"Fuck you yellow monkey, you bloody butcher……"

"Fuck Joey, Fuck San Antonio, Fuck Popovich!"

"San Antonio is a slaughterhouse, and Popovich is the culprit who maliciously condoned his players to harm players from other teams. We demand that the league's top management thoroughly investigate the crimes of the murder team!"

"Yes, thoroughly investigate the crimes of the San Antonio Killing Team!"

"……"

Joey, who was sitting on the bus, twitched his lips.

No wonder the perfect basketball idol who was so humorous and graceful as an elementary school student in his previous life had so many black fans. Didn’t the Warriors fans in Golden State completely confuse right and wrong, and put aside the facts and talk about personal"feelings"?

Wasn’t it your"Golden State leech" who started it first?

I just"unintentionally" counterattacked in self-defense!

But can self-defense counterattacks be unintentional?

In this regard, some retired stars of the league who had"disappeared" from the arena for a long time also reappeared in the public eye.

Karl Malone, the former star of the Jazz, who was his farmer in Oklahoma, said in a podcast on TNT:

"Oh Joey! Haha, that's really a rookie born in the wrong era……"

"Charles (Feizhu), I can assure you that the rookie is definitely a tough guy. Such a person will not be timid with you. Anyone who offends him will definitely pay the price with blood. Look at this ball.……"

The big screen suddenly played a video replay of Joey beating Green on the court. Malone, who was tall and strong, wearing a hat and a white beard, was holding a cigar in his mouth and showing a slightly"kind" smile:

"The other old guys said he looked like Maggie, like Avery (Little General), like Reggie……"

"But I just think he is a bigger version of John! That great guy, hahahaha!"

Malone smiled proudly and commented:

"Forbearing, ruthless, casual, waiting for the right moment, killing with one strike……"

"Too much like my old friend, Charles, don't you think so?

Malone took a big puff of his cigar, and between the puffs of smoke, he only heard Barkley's rebuttal:

"Come on, this is not our time, Carl, the bastard, and Joey is not a hypocritical and vicious guy like John.……"

Barkley, who knows the"virtue" of the Stockton-Malone partnership, naturally has a say.

Malone was not angry when he heard Barkley's words. After all, the former was one of the few players of the same generation who could get the respect of the"iron elbow" mailman.

"Let's wait and see, Charles, there aren't many interesting rookies like this.……"

Charles Oakley, the former famous NBA thug, Goat's exclusive bodyguard, and the guide of"Big Ben", also said to the media who flocked to the opening ceremony of his training camp in Chicago after the game:

"I've said it before, I don't like this league that has become sissy, there's no iron-blooded offense and defense, no extreme physical combat, even the pride of one man, one city among the stars has become a betrayal to the enemy.……"

The evil man who was chewing gum, wearing sunglasses and looking disdainful commented:

"The kid from an elite family who grew up in the Milton William neighborhood, yes, that's right, the guy named Joey. This little guy is a bit like us back then, vindictive and his methods are obscure and hard to detect!"

"Of course, this rookie is just a little interesting. A real tough player should have a real man boxing match with the opponent players!"

The reporters in the audience were extremely excited. Today, Chicago tabloid reporters rushed to the training camp held by the former Bulls"bad guy", just to get some"views" about the current league from the latter. To be precise, it is the evaluation of the new third pick Joey who has committed"numerous evil deeds" less than three months after entering the league.

Isaiah Thomas also talked about this in the New York Times podcast program a few days ago, praising Joey's"revenge" behavior. When he was excited, he also performed on the spot on the show how to use some dirty and obscure little moves on the court to mess with the opponent's mentality...

It was not easy to wash away the NBA players'"nouveau riche""、"Mud Legs"、"President Stern, who has a bad impression of the outside world such as"criminal concentration camp", has recently been troubled by the"bad remarks" of these old guys who were unwilling to be lonely in the last century on various TV shows. The name of the Spurs' third pick"Gentleman Thug" once again topped the hot search in the Mi Lijia basketball circle.

This made Bill Duffy, who was far away in New York, both happy and troubled.

He was happy that he had Joey, a human money printing machine with"topic exposure" and"hot search affinity", but he was troubled by the way this"human money printing machine" always brought traffic in an unusual way.

However, what is strange is that Joey's popularity among fans in China and the United States has not only not been affected by the repeated violent incidents on the court, but has become more and more popular. It is easy to understand for the Mi Lijia, after all, they advocate"the power of the strong.""、"It is a country of"heroism", but it is a bit puzzling that more and more fans in China, far away on the other side of the ocean, appreciate Joey.

Could it be that Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are too humble and low-key in public, so the Chinese people want to try a"new taste" of idols on the court?

………

After the league announced the punishment for Draymond Green, all the Spurs players who had already boarded the plane back to the Holy City couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief for Joey.

"Oh, rookie, your behavior is too dangerous!"

Manu was about to make a joke to ease the atmosphere, but the martial saint Jackson beside him suddenly said solemnly:

"Joey, next time there is something like this, I should be the one to do it. After all, the purpose of my joining the team is to do this kind of thing!"

Joey didn't say anything, but just glanced at Popovich who was sitting behind him with his eyes closed. The latter's eyelids moved slightly.

Joey instantly understood what he meant:

"Thanks, Stephan!"

"But please believe me……"

"Draymond hit my elbow with his face.……"

He sighed and said seriously:

"That was really a surprise!"

"cut~~~~"

Almost at the same time, a burst of contempt rang out throughout the cabin.

Even the old man who closed his eyes and pretended to be calm couldn't help but twitch his mouth slightly...
