Chapter 473: Super Ticket (2/2)
However, just when the Warriors were ready to enjoy the rest time, the media and fans were waiting for the league to notify the league of the ownership of this season's regular season MVP, in fact, there was almost no suspense about the ownership, and the biggest suspense was whether Chen Mo could get all the first-place votes and get the MVP.

But at this time, the league issued a huge fine.
The ticket is not for the individual, but for the team, and it is not a team that has received the ticket.
According to the league's regular season record this season, except for the Bulls and Thunder, none of the other teams have missed the net.
The Golden State Warriors are at the top of this list, followed by the San Antonio Spurs, the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat in joint third place, and the Boston Celtics in fourth.
The ranking is naturally the amount of fines, which are 500,000, 450,000, 350,000 and 250,000 respectively from front to back.
The reason for the fine is that these top teams have been rested many times during the season, and their rotation has damaged the interests of the league as a whole.
Because the league's broadcast rights are sold to ESPN, T-NT and other TV stations, and this money is divided equally among the league's thirty teams. This top team is the key to the league's broadcast rights being able to sell at a price, and these teams are unscrupulously resting in the game, especially the Warriors, Spurs, and Lakers, the three teams in the three-day continuous collision schedule, actually took turns to rest the main team.
Turning the game extremely ugly is something that Stern believes has done a lot of damage to the league, but also to the fans and broadcasters. And this hasn't happened once in the season, with these top teams resting their main players in competitions on several occasions.
In the Spurs' away game against the Heat, Po Povich let GDP plus Danny Green in advance, and the four main players flew back to San Antonio first. Although the game was still extremely intense that day, the Miami Heat and the Spurs' group of benches battled until the last minute, and finally relied on James' layup to win by two points.
But the Spurs' decision is considered to deprive Miami fans of the right to watch GDP on their home court, coupled with the fact that the Spurs, Warriors, and Lakers met later, and took turns to rest the main team during this period, resulting in only one of the three games that should have been exciting The Spurs played a wonderful game against the Warriors. This made the broadcasters complain a lot.
Stern told the broadcaster at the time, explaining that he would hold a meeting to study and then give a plan for dealing with it. Unexpectedly, this delay was delayed until the first round of the playoffs was carried out for more than half of the time before the final results were announced.
Obviously, there are too many giants involved in this ticket, and even the ruthless Stern has to be cautious.
originally thought that this ticket would cause an uproar, but the strange thing is that except for the media and fans who are hotly discussing, none of the teams involved in the list have spoken out and all obediently paid the fine.
"A fine is a fine, and we are on a rotational basis. Po Povich said during a meeting of the uniform team.
Chen Mo didn't want to take turns to rest in his heart, but he knew that if he played all the games in this intensive schedule, his injury possibility would be greatly increased.
"If I start physical enhancement next season, I won't be involved in the rotation. Chen Mo said secretly in his heart.
When discussing within the team, Chen Mo also meant this, "If I can next year, I won't take a turn off." After all, it's all those old guys who take turns to take breaks, and I take turns to rest more frequently, which is really not appropriate. ”
"Hey, Jack, it's all my own here, David (Stern) isn't here, you don't have to. Timothy Glenn said.
Chen Mo shook his head and said: "I'm telling the truth, the league is right, after all, some fans of the away team can only see us once a year in their home stadium, we can't deprive them of the right to once a year, and they spent money to buy tickets, they are our food and clothing parents!
"Okay, we didn't have a meeting to discuss this, the Oklahomas won the battle at home, and they have a good chance of qualifying, and of course Memphis is also a good chance of being our opponent. Let's talk about these two opponents. General Manager Bob Myers said.
Although the general manager is not involved in the discussion and development of tactics, Myers will be in the audience during such important games. And today he is also going to communicate with you about the ticket.
Chen Mo was the only player who appeared at this meeting, and most teams held such meetings without players, and only those players with extremely special status were able to participate. For example, Kobe Bryant of the Lakers and Nowitzki of the Mavericks.
"Memphis' problem is relatively easy to solve, and it's unlikely that they'll advance, so let's just talk about it. Chen Mo said.
"Memphis' lineup hasn't changed much, it's just about making a fuss about the low post, we open up space, they always have a time when they can't prevent it, as long as we have a good overall hand, throw them to death. I don't think there's anything special that needs to be changed, it's enough to play at the same pace as before. ”
"What about Oklahoma?" said Timothy Glenn.
Chen Mo thought for a while and said, "We don't know what kind of changes they will make on the defensive end, and they can defend our three-point shots." Our advantage against them was just a rush in the transition, and we were able to score about 30 points in a game, which was ideal, but it wasn't enough to end the series. ”
"And we don't know what they're going to do on the defensive end. ”
"I would suggest that we go back to the normal line-up in the opening stages, which is to put David Lee back in the starting line-up and Andrei [Kirilenko] on the bench. We play more positional attacks, more blocks and demolitions, and break them up from the inside. ”
Chen Mo's tactical ideas Timothy Glenn basically supported them, and what Chen Mo said was also very reasonable, and everyone continued to discuss it for a while. Miles saw that the team's tactics were working very reasonably, and it didn't make sense for him to stay here any longer, so he left decisively. The rest of Chen Mo and Timothy Glenn used the big TV in the conference room to start watching the sixth game between the Thunder and the Grizzlies.
When they turned on the TV, the first quarter of the game had already started for 5 minutes, and the Thunder played a dream start, they led the Grizzlies 23-7, and Durant started with 6 of 6 shots, directly cutting down 16 points, which was super efficient.
Originally, Chen Mo asked Timothy Glenn and Curry to watch the game at home, but who knew that Myers notified them to come to the team for a small meeting, and he and Timothy Glenn came together, and they happened to be at the public place to watch the game.
