The Clippers were immediately put to the test in their next game and were in trouble.

After playing the Pistons game, the Clippers traveled to Charlotte to face the Bobcats on the road.

It was a back-to-back away game, with the team leaving Detroit overnight only to be hit by a midlander at the airport, with the plane delayed for three hours before taking off.

By the time the team arrived in Charlotte, it was already past seven o'clock in the morning, and the players arrived at the hotel with tired bodies.

The team's midday training session was canceled, and everyone slept in the hotel to recuperate.

It wasn't until about 3 p.m. that the Clippers organized a trip to Charlotte's arena for field acclimatization.

Three hours later, the game was playing at Time Warner Arena in Charlotte, and the Clippers players were clearly out of shape.

The Bobcats took advantage of the home court to fight against the Clippers, and the Clippers' outside feel was quite bad.

Li Liang saw that his teammates couldn't throw no matter how they shot, as long as they came by themselves.

He had 33 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists tonight, but his teammates played really poorly.

Griffin was in critical need for a foul and his scalp tingled at the referee's whistle.

Now when the league's referees want to control the Clippers' whistle, they have learned to be obedient, and except for Crawford, no one else will move Li Liang.

But the rest of the Clippers will be staring at the blow, and tonight's home whistle will be particularly obvious.

Griffin had two fouls in the first quarter and four fouls soon in the third quarter, and his time on the court was cut to pieces.

Li Liang didn't understand, a person like Griffin who didn't defend much, and his arms were short and he couldn't catch people, how could the referee blow him all kinds of fouls?

The level of this business is really high.

Li Liang not only attacked himself in various ways tonight, but also let go of the firepower in his mouth, and scolded the referee, the opposing coach and the fans on the spot.

Although he had a hair dryer, he couldn't stand such a scolding, and the audience scolded everywhere, and finally scolded the referee.

As a result, not long after the start of the fourth quarter, Li Liang was whistled for a technical foul for the second time and then sent off.

This is the first time Li Liang has been sent out since entering the NBA.

The audience was booed, and Li Liang followed Ranbill's example when he left the stadium, bowing lightly to the fans at the scene as a sign of mockery.

Needless to say, you will definitely be fined in the future.

But Li Liang didn't care, this game was really hot.

The referee whistled as frantically as a nervous disorder, and on the Clippers' side, inspired by Li Liang's scolding, the whole team was working against the referee.

As a result, Li Liang was sent off, and then by the end of the fourth quarter, Griffin was also sent off.

Both key players were sent off in the crucial fourth quarter, how can this game be played?

Rivers scratched his ears on the sidelines, but the Clippers didn't give up in the final moments.

Chasing all the way behind by 8 points, I chased only 1 point!

With three cores missing, the Clippers can play so tenacious, why?

Because I'm afraid of being scolded!

If you play hard and lose in the end, it's okay, losing is inevitable.

But if you give up the game early and lose in the end, you will definitely be scolded to death by Li Liang after the game.

He scolds during training, on the plane, and on the way to the hotel.

The Clippers are the second team to be scolded for being numb after the Lakers.

Numbness is actually good, numbness will make the players like warriors, braving artillery fire to move forward, just for the sake of victory, instead of being greedy for life and death and trying to escape.

Therefore, if Li Liang becomes the head coach in the future, the team under his rule will be absolutely tenacious.

The Clippers tried their best tonight, but in the end they still couldn't win the Bobcats, 96:97, a slight disadvantage of 1 point, and lost to the Bobcats.

Crawford's last-minute strike missed, and the Clippers suffered another defeat.

Li Liang checked the results of the game on his mobile phone in the locker room and knew that his teammates had done their best.

After Rivers returned to the dressing room with his players, he encouraged everyone, "We did our best, but tonight was not a good night to win. ”

Li Liang thinks it's strange, why do you feel that the referees have been targeting the Clippers recently?

And those referees seem to be becoming more and more disobedient, not as empathetic as before, and always working against Li Liang.

I've learned to talk back lately! Reversed him.

Immediately after the post-game press conference, the team drove to the airport and flew to their next destination, Toronto.

This time, Li Liang has brought his passport well, and there will be no more situations where he will not be able to cross the border.

On the plane, the teammates were all asleep, and it took more than four hours to fly from North Carolina to Toronto, and everyone was very tired.

The back-to-back away games, coupled with the frustration after the loss, were quiet on the plane, and only the roar of the aircraft engines could be heard.

Li Liang didn't sleep, opened the curtain of the plane's porthole, and the deep night shrouded the sky over the North American continent, and the stars shone brightly in the dark night.

Sitting next to Li Liang was Mike Brown, who had not slept at all, and was doing statistics on the computer.

If it weren't for the computer screen on, Brown's face wouldn't have been visible with the faint light of the plane.

It's so TM black!

Occasionally, he could see a bright white in the darkness, and it was his teeth.

Don't look at Brown's usual giggling, he is really serious about his work.

He has recently been learning something new in terms of data analysis to better coach the team's defense.

Li Liang stepped forward and asked softly, "Mike, why do I think the alliance has been targeting us recently?" Why does the whistle on us seem to be getting stricter? “

Mike Brown took his eyes off the computer screen, pushed his glasses, and said, "Don't talk nonsense about Bruce, the league is very fair......"

Li Liang interrupted Brown's words and said, "Don't mess with Mike, when you were in the Knights, who didn't know that the alliance wanted to escort you, so what ...... It's not powerful, if it were me, the knight should be a dynasty. ”

Brown looked a little embarrassed and said, "Uh, Bruce, I know you're outspoken, and then there are all kinds of rumors on the Internet in the media, but there are some things that must not be said, understand?" ”

Li Liangdao: "What can't be said, isn't the United States free speech?" ”

"There is no absolute freedom, there are limits to freedom!"

"I'm not an American."

"But you're in the U.S., playing in the NBA!"

Li Liang gave Brown a roll of his eyes, and he understood what Brown meant.

For a professional sports league, the foundation of his operation is not good-looking, not a star, not a cheerleader, not a commercial broadcast, but the word justice.

The consequences of any commercial sports competition without the word "justice" are absolutely devastating.

Because it means that all the confrontations, stories, legends of the entire league are built on a hoax.

Fans of any sports league abhor match-fixing, and management, players, and practitioners spit on match-fixing, at least on the surface.

It's just that out of huge interests and the fame sought after by tens of thousands of people, there will always be people who take risks.

In the history of American professional sports, the Black Sox scandal of 1919 had a huge impact because of match-fixing.

You know, it was 1919, less than 30 years after the birth of basketball, the first professional league had not yet been born, and baseball had already begun to play match-fixing.

It is enough to see that he is a younger brother in the American basketball league.

However, the younger brother also quickly caught up.

The basketball gambling scandal erupted in the 1950-1951 NCAA League, when seven players from the City University of New York (Y) were involved in the gambling storm and admitted to gambling, which led to the near collapse of the college basketball league in the United States.

A direct consequence of this incident was to lead the NBA to learn from MLB's All-Star Game to divert the attention of basketball fans across the country.

For businessmen, it is always one of the best ways to divert attention when encountering problems.

The NBA has now become a thoroughly commercial league, so there are endless rumors of league game manipulation, but there has never been a real hammer.

Because this is the fundamental point of whether an alliance can stand on its footing, once it is confirmed, the consequences will be absolutely devastating.

So outsiders can guess that the NBA itself will never admit it, never.

But Li Liang's feeling is very accurate, and he vaguely feels that this referee is targeting the Clippers.

He is not the stunned guy of Little Jordan, he knows the situation on the court very well.

Mike Brown saw that Li Liang still looked puzzled, and after hesitating for a moment, he still said: "Bruce, play your ball well, and you will definitely become the best basketball player in the world." As for your doubts, put them in your stomach, you know, recently, David Stern was leaving the position of president. ”

Li Liang looked at Mike Brown, who was illuminated by the computer screen in the dark, and felt that his face seemed to be even darker.
