NBA: The Talent Burst from the Start

In the face of Stern's evasion of responsibility, Lin Lei did not directly confront him, after all, everyone has the ability to play Tai Chi.

But Chinese people have been studying how to get along with people for thousands of years, and Stern's way is nothing but the same in Lin Lei's eyes.

Therefore, Lin Lei had already thought about the policy to deal with, and saw him smile lightly, agreeing with the president's words just now.

"President, you have worked so hard. You have to care about our players and communicate with the directors on weekdays. It is not easy for you. I understand very well. 35

The first sentence is a top hat for Stern, but the second sentence is the crux of the matter: "But these NBA directors are too non-things.

You are the president of the league. You are so busy on weekdays that you know all the players' problems.

They only know how to count the money at the end of the year, how can they know the specific situation of these players!

If nothing else, let's just say Artest, the reason why I had conflicts with the other side a few times before was because of me.

When Adam Silver was still in the league, he not only used the drug doping incident to slander me, but even made you stand up.

As soon as Artest tried to argue with reason, and thanks to his presence, we were able to enter this conference, so the grievances were snowed, and the league regained its prestige.

In this case, should he be rewarded?

Well, let's leave this thing aside for now, let's talk about the next thing.

Scumbag Pachulia's repeated malicious fouls caused me to slap my foot directly on the field.

As the mainstay of the team, Artest fights in front to protect me like a big brother. Isn't this the teammate spirit advocated by the league, shouldn't it be praised?

As for the last thing, after Artest finished scoring, he was too excited to celebrate and didn't notice James Harden, and it was excusable that he "injured" Harden by accident.

After all, basketball itself is a sport full of passion. No one can see behind him with four eyes. Since Harden is injured, Artest should naturally take the corresponding responsibility, but is the entire season suspended a bit too much? ?

You don't even think about it, if Artest's suspension affects our Lakers' record who will benefit the most, it must be the team of directors.

However, our Lakers, as the most ticket-selling team in the league, will suffer a drastic drop in revenue once the record is affected, but the entire NBA league will be lost!

Those little bastards are ignorant, you must think twice, President!"

Lin Lei's remarks can be said to be loud and clear, and there is no pause between the clouds and the water, and it looks like a passionate speech.

The staff in the office also nodded after hearing this, and seemed to think that what Lin Lei said was very reasonable.

Even Artest himself was moved to tears. In a trance, he thought that his image had become particularly tall, and he was even the incarnation of justice!

After listening to Lin Lei's analysis, Stern also blinked, and it was a little hard to digest for a while, after all, there was nothing wrong with Lin Lei's logic.

Although the NBA League pursues the so-called fairness and justice on the surface, it is actually a group composed of interests.

If the Lakers' record is really damaged, it will indeed be a loss to the entire league. Even though these directors are screaming loudly now, in fact, once the league loses money, they will all find trouble for the league.

Because of this, banning Artest for a whole season does seem a bit too heavy.

It has to be said that Lin Lei not only excused Artest, but also left some leeway for Stern to deal with this matter.

After all, he didn't say that Artest can't be suspended for a game, but he can't be suspended for one season, that's a lot easier.

So after thinking about it for a moment, Stern finally nodded.

"Lin Lei, what you said is very reasonable, so I decided to ask Artest to issue a public apology, this apology is to the fans, but also to James Harden, and it must be very sincere.

Secondly, Artest has been suspended for a whole season, and some punishments are too heavy, which is not in line with the style of our league's generosity, so let's be suspended for 8 games!""

"Row!"

Now that Stern has made a decision, Lin Lei will naturally not bargain with him.

After all, he is the president of the alliance, and it is not appropriate to pursue some things too closely, not to mention that there will be troubles in the future, it is better to leave some leeway as a person.

A "friendly conversation" between an NBA player and the league president has come to an end for now.

Talking about the end, Lin Lei and Stern once again ended the conversation by wearing high hats with each other enthusiastically, and President Stern even sent Lin Lei out of his office in person.

When he walked out of the office, Artest, as the protagonist of this incident, even looked blank.

He never thought that before he came, he had planned to end his career, but only ended up with an 8-game suspension.

After walking out of the NBA headquarters building, Artest finally came back to his senses and looked at Lin Lei who was beside him and quickly thanked him:

"Lin Lei, you are my lifesaver, you saved my career, you saved my second life.

・・For flowers.......

You will be my big brother from now on, who dares to bully you on the court, if you say a word, even if I die, you have to make him look good!"

Artest is also a man of temperament after all, and even shed tears of gratitude when he said these words, even though he is often confused.

But from this moment on, as long as it is Lin Lei, Artest will obey him obediently, and he will be able to form better constraints on him in the future.

Because of this, Lin Lei did not continue to say more, but nodded with a smile.

"Don't say these words, we are all brothers of the same team, it is very outrageous to say these!

Now that the matter has been resolved, let's go back to Los Angeles first, you must not be slack in the few games you have suspended, and you must also train with the team, and you must be in the best form!""

0.....0

"it is good."

But just as Lin Lei and Artest were about to return to New York alone from Los Angeles, a black luxury business car suddenly appeared in front of them, and then several tall figures got out of the car.

They all wore sunglasses, and their faces were very serious. Several of the big men had tattoos on their bodies, and they didn't look like people living in the sun.

"What are you doing? Do you know who we are? If you have nothing to do, get out of the way!

Seeing that the opponent was not kind, Artest quickly stepped forward and clenched his fists while Lin Leihu was behind him, as if he was ready to fight the opponent at any time.

However, Lin Lei was not in a hurry. Instead, he patted Artest on the shoulder, signaling him not to act rashly.

Because just now Lin Lei keenly discovered that these big men in black were all bulging, obviously carrying guns!

No matter how strong a person's physical fitness is, he can't beat a gun, otherwise everyone will become Yan Shuangying.

He took the initiative to walk out from behind Artest, looked at the big men in black and said with a smile.

"Hello, my friends, I'm Lin Lei, a player from the Lakers. I have a mission in New York this time. Now I'm going back to Los Angeles. I don't know why you are looking for me!"

"Snapped.

The black-clothed men ignored Lin Lei, still standing there, looking like a wooden stake, but there was a sound of applause from behind them.

Hearing the applause, the black-clothed man tacitly gave way to a passage, only to see an oriental man in his early 1980s, about 20 years old, appearing in front of everyone... corpse.
