Chapter 109: I'm a kung fu master, don't mess with me
Garnett wasn't there, and the Timberwolves couldn't be more belly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
There was no doubt that the Magic team would win. But everyone's focus was on the clash of matches, which this time was not very big. After the game, the Timberwolves players were examined and said they had no serious injuries. It seems that the battle on the court is fierce, but from beginning to end, Sean alone solves three in an instant, and it looks like a rehearsal act.
But the game still attracted the attention of countless media outlets.
As soon as the game ended, Sean was stopped by the media.
In the face of questions from the media, Sean expressed his apologies:
"I have to apologize for the Timberwolves players, I really didn't mean to shoot, you have to know that I've always been a good guy and I don't get into a conflict with anyone except the bad guys. In fact, I hope someone doesn't take the initiative to attack me in the arena, because I grew up practicing kung fu, and although I can't compare to professional soldiers such as the Marine Corps, I believe that there is no one in my league who is my opponent. ”
"Yes, I'm not lying, I really know kung fu. Therefore, I hope that other people will not do anything to me, and I am afraid that what if I shoot too hard and hurt other people? ”
In the face of the media's criticism, Sean was not so stupid, and directly said what he really thought in his heart, but pointed out the truth of the facts with a slight joke, and the truth is that Kevin Garnett made the first move in the whole process.
NBA players will be severely punished whenever they fight on the court, but the punishment for the player who makes the first move and the player who moves later is not on the same level. Although Kevin Garnett was beaten by Sean, Sean didn't want to be punished too much.
In the post-match press conference, Coach Van Gundy expressed his displeasure with the referee's decision:
"As a referee, you should know when it's a foul and when it's not, and when my player is elbowed to the ground by the opposing player and covered in blood, is that what a superstar should be? Sean did nothing wrong throughout the game, he just responded to the other players, and I think the league should give a penalty to the players who take the initiative on the court. ”
Van Gundy has a lot of shortcomings, but he is a really good coach when it comes to the tactics within the team and the attitude towards the players.
Even when this happened, Van Gundy was on Sean's side and did not express any dissatisfaction with Sean. If it is replaced by the Eagles, it is another matter, and Sean will definitely be suspended from the team.
Not only that, team manager Ottie Smith also said in an interview with the media: Some superstars in the league have gone too far and made a bad representation for others, and everyone is equal in the whole of the United States, and I think the same is true in the NBA.
But Timberwolves player Kevin Garnett doesn't think so:
"He's an executioner, and I feel so sore right now. He's not a player, he's a hooligan, a jerk, a bastard who doesn't know how to play, the league should ban him permanently, I don't know how many more people he's going to fight......"
Regarding Kevin Garnett's statement, the other Timberwolves teammates were silent, and the team's second-in-command Szczebiak just said plainly that the league should strictly investigate the fighting behavior of players on the court, knowing that this is a basketball league, not a street field.
This game has just happened, and the top brass of the league is extremely shaken.
This season, the league has held high the banner of offense and scoring, creating the league's most luxurious visual spectacle in recent years, and all fans are working hard to see superstars score, who knew that would happen in the Magic and Timberwolves games.
Severe punishment must be severely punished.
But...... How exactly to punish is another story.
Compared with the support of the Orlando uniform team Sean, the Timberwolves uniform team collectively did not say anything, which was a silent protest. In fact, it has not been a day or two since the Timberwolves uniform team wiped Kevin Garnett's ass, but now Kevin Garnett wants to leave the Timberwolves and go to other teams or championships, which makes Timberwolves fans and the uniform team very sad. Now that this is the case, the Timberwolves uniform team is starting to get impatient.
The final straw that broke the weight had been made, and soon news was circulating among the managers of the league's major teams that the Timberwolves uniform team was going to trade Kevin Garnett.
This is really exciting news.
For a while, the major uniform groups were thinking about how to trade Garnett, especially the team aiming to win the championship. Although Garnett is a little older, he is still at the end of his prime, and his interior defense ability is the top in the league, and his interior offensive ability is not weak. If a partner injures a coolie blue-collar frame-type interior line, it is definitely a championship-level interior configuration.
The league's punishment for this fight has not yet come out, and there are media reports about the Timberwolves' intentions.
Kobe Bryant was the first to be interviewed after hearing the news:
"It's a good thing, it's the best time for the Lakers to win the championship, and if Kevin Garnett comes, the Lakers will be the championship team, and I'm very convinced of that. I'm willing to play with Kevin Garnett and lead the team to a championship. ”
Bryant was the first player to make overtures to Kevin Garnett.
The Lakers are big cities, the salary is fine, and the rookies needed for the team's rebuild, such as Bynum Jr., will definitely be able to get the chips that will make the Timberwolves feel good if they are willing to trade.
For a while, the entire league was rumoring about an upcoming trade between the Lakers and the Timberwolves.
Kobe Bryant partnered with Kevin Garnett, which is a very good publicity strategy.
NBA high-level meeting.
Adam Shaw smiled and said to everyone: "Fights on the court must be punished severely, and you can use this opportunity to let Kevin go elsewhere, the NBA needs a gimmick, doesn't it?" ”
"What if you form a super team?"
"Players get older, the peak doesn't last a few years, and no matter how it changes, it's better than seeing San Antonio win."
This sentence silenced the management of the alliance.
The year the San Antonio Spurs won the championship, the ratings fell miserably, worse than the Pistons won more championships, such a team won the championship, but not the championship that the league expected, so no one objected to Adam Shaw's idea.
The next day, the Coalition reported the punitive measures with incredible speed.
"Kevin Garnett is suspended for twelve games and fined $700,000, and Sean Lee is suspended for seven games and fined $200,000."
This is the most brutal punishment in recent years, and under normal circumstances, unless the impact is very severe, the ban on a player is not much. The punishment for the fight at the Auburn Hills Palace was the most severe in history, because the players beat the fans, which was of a completely different nature, and the impact of this punishment was a bit greater.
The Timberwolves are very competitive in the West, and Garnett is suspended for another 12 games, which means that the Timberwolves' record this year must not bear to look at directly.
The team's best bet would be to trade Kevin Garnett. Not only can you trade draft picks and potential rookies, but you can also prepare for next year, which is what any manager will do, and the Timberwolves' rot is already imperative.
