My basketball vision is different
Chapter 416: MVP Acquired
Just when the first round of the playoffs was in full swing, and even when the Clippers' hope of qualifying in the first round had appeared, Stella, the owner of the Clippers, one of the only teams in the international metropolis of Los Angeles, said:
raving.
"Blackie shouldn't have entered the stadium to watch the Clippers game!"
People who are familiar with Sterling will not be surprised, because he is an outright racist in life, which is in line with his urine; people who are not familiar with him think this guy must be crazy.
This is the NBA, a league dominated by black players. Now you actually ask black spectators not to enter the stadium to watch the game?
After these words were exposed, the Clippers' prospects for the championship instantly became gloomy. Many people even said that because of Sterling's words, let alone the championship, the Clippers might be destroyed by this boss.
.
Sterling is not the first offender. His racially motivated words and deeds are not uncommon before. He even claimed a long time ago that he wanted a white coach to lead a group of poor black players to form a team.
Such a long-time criminal was revealed to be a discriminator at this time, which already explains a lot of problems.
Of course, there is also a terrible conspiracy theory circulating in the league, saying that "Magic" Johnson and the consortium partners behind him want to acquire the Clippers. However, the Clippers are located in Los Angeles and have a market value of more than 400 million U.S. dollars. Without some disturbing news,
Things that he cannot accept will certainly not be able to suppress his market value, let alone a successful acquisition.
Therefore, such rumors are very marketable. After all, Sterling's discriminatory remarks were secretly recorded during an argument with his girlfriend, and Sterling's girlfriend watched the Clippers game with "Magic", and the two even
There is a group photo.
If it had not been prepared in advance, it would have been impossible for such complete evidence to leak out.
In the end, whether it was the conspiracy of the "magician" or the conspiracy of the "girlfriend," the matter instantly broke out of the circle and even attracted the attention of the commander-in-chief.
The league's initial fine of more than one million US dollars was just the beginning, and more severe measures will follow.
After learning the news, Lin Shaojie, who was resting at home, was thoughtful and finally called his old friend Ballmer.
"The opportunity you have been waiting for has come!"
"Are you also paying attention to this news? Shouldn't you be preparing for the playoffs?"
"My home network is very good, how could I not know this news!"
Lin Shaojie felt that there was something in Ballmer's words, and he only called to confirm certain things. Now that he heard the other party's tone, could he have expected it?
The two chatted for a long time and both understood what they meant.
Ballmer was indeed no fool, and he started making preparations as soon as he learned the news.
As for whether "Magic" is behind the scenes, there is no problem for either of them. Ballmer's goal is obvious, which is to take grain from the fire and successfully win the Clippers. As for how the opponent made the mistake, this
It is unknown;
As for Lin Shaojie, why is he so interested in this that he even doesn’t hesitate to “offend” the “magician.”
After all, it's a narrow road for enemies.
Lin Shaojie was able to become good friends with the old gangster. On the one hand, it stems from the community of interests between the two parties, and on the other hand, there is no direct competition between the two parties.
If you look at the relationship between Larry Bird and LeBron, at least Lin Shaojie knows that "Big Bird" has no regard for LeBron's skills at all, and that kind of playing style that maximizes physical conditions is not good for him.
In Bird's eyes, the two of them share the same position and are full of competition.
Lin Shaojie and "Magic" also have the same problem, which is their identity as point guards.
Ever since Lin Shaojie's rookie year, some media reporters have constantly mentioned that Lin Shaojie may threaten "Magic" Johnson's position.
You know, before Lin Shaojie "appeared", there was never any doubt that the number one point guard in history was Johnson, who could play from the 1st position to the 5th position.
But now, fewer and fewer people can mention this name. When young people talk about the best point guard, they subconsciously use "Lynn," or use "No. 13 of the Pacers" instead. This makes Magic
Can you bear it?
Although "Magician" has repeatedly expressed that he is looking forward to seeing such a situation, you have never heard from any media that "Magician" has praised Lin Shaojie.
For a meritorious player who has retired and whose reputation is hard to gain anymore, he can only live in the glory of the past. Now that someone wants to take away the last piece of honor from him, how can he give it away?
superior.
Therefore, there is an essential dispute of interests between Lin Shaojie and "Magic". Now that Johnson wants to continue to expand his influence in the US professional basketball, how can Lin Shaojie let the other party do so?
At least Ballmer is still his friend, but Magic has never had any personal relationship.
Lin Shaojie would rather make a clear deal with a businessman than make an empty deal with Johnson.
That night, Lin Shaojie sat at home and watched everyone in the league perform their own performances. The commander-in-chief even bluntly criticized him for his ignorance. Donald Sterling became a "street rat, and everyone shouted to beat him!"
As the new leader, Xiaohua has stated that the alliance has begun collecting evidence and they will deal with the matter seriously.
Influential players, led by "Magic" Johnson, even bluntly stated that Sterling needs to stand up and apologize, and then give up his equity in the Clippers.
At that moment, everyone knew what Sima Zhao was thinking.
But the "Magician" didn't know that behind him stood a covetous predator like Ballmer. Even though he wanted to take out 400 million dollars, he had to move around and discuss important matters with the consortium. Ball
It's enough for Mo to spend his own pocket money, but the gap between the two parties is huge.
When it comes to making wedding clothes for others, you won't feel the heartache until the last minute.
Lin Shaojie, who is also one of the most influential players in the league, was also caught by reporters asking this question during the recovery training on the second day.
"Of course I support severe punishment. This is different from my identity. Such a bad thing as racial discrimination..."
Lin Shaojie's words were also high-sounding and touching.
"So there are rumors that you suppressed Hibbert in the locker room."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. We have always been a united team. Hibbert is deeply troubled by sports asthma. His use is based on his physical condition. As for playing in games, it is the decision of the coach.
, what does it have to do with me, you don’t want to insult others’ innocence.”
It is also a harsh wording, but when compared before and after, it seems to be extremely ironic.
This Chinese man can't just look innocent on the outside. In fact, he is also a thick-faced and sinister person who kills without blood.
Hibbert, who was participating in training, vaguely heard such words, and his thoughts... were hard to describe.
Anyway, with his brain capacity, he can't say anything cruel, and he can't hit him with his fists. He can only rely on the ostrich spirit of indifference to continue suffering, and see if he can survive until the day when he comes into his own. Otherwise, without him,
If the Pacers are on the court and can successfully break through, then there is only one waiting for him, and he will be liquidated.
Sterling's inappropriate remarks have obviously affected the Clippers players. There are countless celebrities who want to swallow this piece of fat. Even boxing champion Meservy has come forward and expressed his desire to acquire the Clippers.
Everyone knows how difficult it has been to join the NBA in the past two years. The rapidly increasing influence has brought every boss a lot of income and net worth. In this era of value-added or devalued, it is difficult to find such a high-quality player.
Assets are really rare for people who have barely stepped into the ranks of billionaires.
In this precarious situation, although Sterling, as the person involved, has repeatedly insisted that he will not sell the Clippers, the overall atmosphere has been created here. The decision-making power is not even in his hands. He is just a free owner.
But he is just a rich man with no disposal rights.
As soon as the league issued a lifetime ban to Sterling, the Clippers' official media expressed support for the decision, and everyone cheered, as if the world had been suffering for a long time.
The current head coach Xiaohua even bluntly stated that in order to prevent players from going on strike and other extreme measures, he will definitely force Sterling to sell the Clippers as soon as possible.
Even Sterling's daughter and son-in-law stood up and angrily denounced him as a racist. The feeling of being "killed for justice," and "betrayed by everyone" was something that even those involved could not describe as Yang Bailao.
Sterling must have deeply understood the warmth and coldness of human relationships at that moment.
To sell or not to sell?
Now it's just a matter of determining who will take over the "license" from the alliance.
I'm afraid not many people can recall the news that Ballmer was interested in entering the game half a year or even a year ago.
Lin Shaojie can guarantee that at that moment Ballmer already held the scepter of victory, waiting for the final information to be announced. All the "dogs" barking outside did not know that the red neck hiding behind was the real "dog"
Yellow bird."
As for whether Sterling, a rich man, is willing to accept such an outcome and fight back, Lin Shaojie doesn't know.
Just when the Clippers were successfully promoted, all the media began to sing praises, claiming that the city of alley-oops was beginning to recover and challenge for the championship.
The league officially announced the Most Valuable Player award for this regular season.
"Lynn, mvp!"
This is the award that has the least suspense before the game. In addition to Lin Shaojie taking the first place, Durant ranked second and LeBron third.
Harden, who has been eliminated, ranks fifth, the highest-ranked Rockets player since 18 years.
Lin Shaojie's successful election is also the best manifestation of his "thief never fails" in the past two seasons.
Not only that, Lin Shaojie also claimed the regular season scoring title in terms of statistics. This is also Lin Shaojie's first scoring title.
Second place is Durant again. With 32 points, he is only less than 2 points less than Lin Shaojie. He is unwilling to lose. It’s like a 100-point game. He scored 98 points and still can’t claim the first place.
What a pity, who can say.
"For such a player, if you didn't say this was his second season, you would have thought he was a historical legend." - "Basketball"
"Lynn's emergence has broken people's usual understanding of Eastern basketball. He is the blockbuster dropped by the East in the West in this era and has awakened the world!" - "Big Apple Post"
"This is a Chinese, are you kidding me?" - This news shows that the village does not have Internet access.
"Think about the years when the little giant retired. We were almost living in darkness. Who would have thought that we would welcome a player of the best level in history within a few years. He is so dazzling..."
Many hot comments began to gradually reduce the impact of the Clippers owner's inappropriate remarks. This group of people keenly felt that the pattern of the league was beginning to change. The situation of the strong in the west and the weak in the east gradually changed with the emergence of this oriental man.
.
Of course, there were praisers and opponents, but no one expected that the first one to stand up would be "Magic" Johnson.
"In my mind, the best player is LeBron. He is so perfect. He is far better than other players in many aspects. He is the MVP in our hearts."
It stands to reason that Johnson can be considered a skilled player, so how can he like LeBron?
In a word, profit!
When asked about this so-called evaluation of celebrities, Lin Shaojie always smiled and said nothing.
The best way to solve the problem is to respond with a smile, otherwise there will always be a meaning that you don't even know.
After all, for Johnson, he is just a businessman now, one of the few successful businessmen.
Along with the announcement of the award, the Lakers, who missed the playoffs, finally parted ways with D'Antoni amicably, becoming another coach who was fired early.
The Lakers paid for D'Antoni to leave early, and Gasol, who had already started looking for a new home, was immediately caught by reporters and asked if he intended to stay with the Lakers and continue fighting with Kobe.
"Kobe Bryant wants me to stay with the Lakers?"
When Gasol got such a question, he was a little confused.
Before the Lakers confirmed that D'Antoni would officially leave the team, Gasol's original salary cut to stay with the team did not receive support from the top management. How could Gasol go back to the team at this time, even if the Lakers moved out Kobe?
"This was my dream. I was even willing to take a pay cut at that time, but now, everything has passed. But this will not affect my friendship with Kobe. We have mutual respect and admiration. I like to play with him.
time, but someone ruined it all..."
This was a game without a winner, and the Lakers did not make the playoffs;
Kobe Bryant is out for the season;
Gasol began looking elsewhere;
The coach resigned early.
If anyone is worse off than D'Antoni, it can only be Warriors coach Mark Jackson.
The Warriors' team formation is a visible success, and Curry's potential is far higher than anyone imagined.
However, after Yu was kicked out in the first round, Mark Jackson was still dismissed.
Some people speculate that it is because Jackson has never settled in the Bay Area and insists on living in Los Angeles. Is this a sign that he is in the Cao camp and his heart is in the Han Dynasty?
In other words, is it his devout religious beliefs?
No matter what the outside world speculates, I am afraid that the biggest reason for his resignation is that there was internal strife among the coaching staff and Jackson's handling of the situation was not decisive enough.
The Warriors' senior management's expectations for the Warriors are not simply the first round of the playoffs. They want more, and this kind of uncoordinated coaching staff is even more unacceptable.
In this moment of frequent awards and personnel turmoil, the teams entering the second round of the series are embarking on a series of journeys.
