The situation is getting worse.

Chapter 230 Public opinion ferments

When the Knicks teammates learned about Wang Song’s health status, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The last game can be said to be a shameful battle for the Knicks!

Whether it is Nash, Houston, Prince, Kurt Thomas, or a group of substitutes, everyone is holding their breath.

In addition to being upset about losing the game, the unfairness of the penalty scale made many players dissatisfied.

When they learned that the backbone of the team was injured, most of the players played a little absent-mindedly.

Just like when the Bulls established the dynasty, the Bad Boys were destroyed by Jordan, and all the Bulls players would fall into a period of confusion. They couldn’t find someone who could cover them at the last moment.

Now that Wang Song is fine, the Knicks players are relieved.

But before that, all Knicks staff received the message and kept Wang Song’s health status secret, just as he planned.

They have to wait for the news to ferment, so that fans can put pressure on the league to seriously rectify the Pistons’ court standards.

Before that, Knicks fans can only worry for a while.

The next day.

After the fermentation and hype of the media, the situation is indeed gradually on the verge of getting out of control.

“Superstar Nightmare, the “Bad Boys Army” of the year is back? ! 》

“Different standards, black whistles from Detroit!”

“Dirty! The Pistons’ useless action only received an ordinary foul? 》

“The fall of a superstar only requires an action outside the court! 》

With the New York media taking the lead, more and more multimedia followed up, and the Pistons’ cross-border actions attracted more and more attention.

On the other side.

In the just-concluded G3 battle of the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers defeated the Timberwolves 100:89.

In this game, Zen Master controlled Kobe’s intensity very well. Kobe scored 22 points with 12 shots in the whole game, which once again proved the “Kobe Law”!

O’Neal scored 22 points, 17 rebounds and 4 blocks easily. All signs show that he is still firmly in the center T0 position.

Timberwolves.

The Wolf King scored 22 points and 11 rebounds in the whole game, and Sprewell contributed 18 points.

Philip Saunders activated the Shark-cutting tactic. They gave the Sharks 22 free throws, and the opponent only hit 8 of them, but it still couldn’t hide the Timberwolves’ decline.

Garnett fouled out and left the court but couldn’t limit Shaq’s pace!

Whether it is the “Stone Buddha” of the Spurs or the “Wolf King” of the Timberwolves, they have proved one thing.

The two All-Star power forwards in the West, standing in the first echelon of the league, can’t suppress this Lakers fat man.

Even if the Sharks are no longer young, his dominance is still unique.

Facing the post-match interview, when asked about the finals in the other division, O’Neal, who looked relaxed, showed a serious look: “First of all, I have to affirm the strength of the Asian boy. I guess countless people, including me, don’t believe that this Knicks team can get to this point today.”

“But the facts prove that young Asians still don’t have the leadership qualities to lead this Knicks team to a higher stage. If Ben Wallace dares to do that to me in the finals, he will leave the stadium lying down. I don’t care about any bullshit rules.”

The domineering declaration is just like O’Neal’s performance against the Timberwolves today. No one in the media behind the camera dared to question this big guy.

In his more than ten years of professional career, this irritable Shark has always been unconvinced.

In addition to Shaq, many celebrities have expressed their views on Wang Song’s injury.

Especially MJ, when he learned that the Pistons once again successfully eliminated a star player in the Eastern Conference Finals, Jordan, who had always been at odds with Wang Song, couldn’t suppress his emotions. Looking at the picture of Wang Song falling to the ground was like seeing himself back then.

“This is the barbarian group in Detroit. They are desperate for victory. If you want to survive safely from them, you must always keep an eye on their dangerous moves.”

“Of course, that will restrict you in the game. If it were me, I would increase the proportion of shots and reduce the risk of attacking the basket.”

Jordan’s seemingly sincere advice from a veteran, but in the eyes of fans, it has little effect on the Knicks.

First of all, Wang Song is already injured, and a whole day has passed since the game, and the official announcement has not come out. It is estimated that he will not be able to return within two or three games.

But the series is often fleeting, and the Knicks will be eliminated if they are not careful.

Even if the Knicks

After the outbreak, will the Chinese rookie who returns to the court still be the guy that fans are familiar with?

No one can guarantee it.

Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years!

Once an athlete is injured, it is inevitable that he will be left with a shadow when he competes with the same level during the recovery process. It is normal not to dare to make a move in the short term.

Even if we take a step back and return to the court in a normal and healthy state, the Chinese rookie can’t do what Jordan said.

As a traditional center, fans can’t ask Wang Song to have the same shooting ability as Jordan that makes opponents afraid. Even after a whole season, Wang Song has developed his own mid-range shooting ability. It is still not easy to make the Pistons afraid as a nuclear weapon.

Since entering the playoffs, Wang Song’s main conventional offensive means are still placed under the basket.

After all, the most stable way to score is to get close to the basket.

···

The next day.

Detroit!

In the NBA’s temporary meeting room, NBA executives headed by Stern sat together.

These faces, which could only be seen in big cities like New York in the past, are now crowded in this crowded office in the Motor City, which shows the urgency of the situation.

“Guys, I believe everyone has seen the scale of this game. If it continues according to this scale and the intensity of the refereeing, I believe that the league’s games next season will lose a lot of highlights.”

As Stern, who has always promoted reasonable and compliant game standards, he was very dissatisfied to see that there were such hurtful actions in the NBA under his rule, and he witnessed it with his own eyes on the scene.

“Mr. David, I think we must impose the maximum penalty for this phenomenon. Connivance will only escalate the situation.”

Hearing this speech, Stern nodded approvingly.

Before he fully agreed to make a decision, Adam Silver, president of the NBA Entertainment League, shook his head.

“Sir, I have a different opinion. Although these actions look barbaric, they can stimulate people’s senses. Although violence is not recommended, it can make the game more enjoyable if it is controlled within a reasonable scale, right?”

Looking at the young bald man with glasses, Stern shook his head violently:

“If we insist on this scale, this playoffs will go back to the late 1980s and early 1990s. Adam, our current plan is to promote it globally, not just the US market. We must ensure sufficient respect for international players, otherwise it will be difficult to implement the promotion.”

Looking at Silver, who once expressed that he was a Knicks fan, Stern looked puzzled.
