Richard really suffered a big loss this time, he felt that it was not half a month, and he estimated that he couldn't slow down!

He was injured, and the players under him were also injured, this kind of deep hatred, with Richard's retributive temperament, it is strange that he can let Jazz go!

It doesn't matter what kind of western hegemon you are, if you provoke Richard, he will definitely make the other party pay!

And it's a painful price!

……

At the beginning, Larry Brown and Jalen Rose actually only took advantage of Richard verbally, but they were picked up quite miserably by Richard.

Now that Jazz has made Richard suffer a big loss, it is impossible for Richard to let Jazz go like this!

……

At eight o'clock in the morning the next day, the NBA held a press conference directly!

It can also be seen from this press conference how seriously the NBA takes this matter......

Stern is in charge!

"Last night's brawl was the worst incident I've ever had since I took over as NBA commissioner!"

"The NBA Board of Management will never tolerate this vicious incident!"

"In line with the idea of being responsible for the players, the fans, and the team, we have decided to impose a ban and a fine on the participants in this incident!"

Stern's face was extremely serious, and then he began to read out the results of the punishment for this incident!

What all reporters didn't expect was that Stern first read out the punishment results for Stockton, with a six-game ban plus a $20,000 fine!

This penalty is not serious if it is placed in the regular season......

But now it's the playoffs, and without Stockton, the Jazz's combat power will definitely be reduced a lot!

Originally, reporters thought that Stern would take the young head coach Richard first, after all, the initiator of this largest brawl in history can be said to be Richard!

Naturally, it was Stockton who provoked the trouble, but if it weren't for Richard's madness, the scale of this brawl would definitely not have reached such a terrifying level!

But Stern didn't take Richard first, but directly used the league star Stockton as a sacrificial knife......

I am afraid that there is also a reason why Stern is dissatisfied with Stockton, after all, the act of calling for someone's life will definitely cause any normal man to be disgusted.

After dealing with Stockton, the reporters were not surprised, and Stern began to deal with Richard!

Richard was given a final ten-match ban with no fine......

The reporters were dumbfounded, how does this punishment feel weird?!

If Richard is a player, the punishment of a ten-game ban is quite severe, but the key is that Richard is a coach, and the salary he gets is the team's fixed annual salary......

And according to the news from the Trail Blazers team doctor, it seems that even if Richard is not banned, Richard will have to rest for at least half a month after being elbowed by Stockton.

It is equivalent to saying that the punishment of Richard seems to be quite serious, but in fact, there is no punishment at all, and it has no impact on Richard's fart......

Reporters began to speculate about what Stern meant by this move.

Could it be that the league is ready to push the Trailblazers?

It seems unlikely, and by all accounts, the league has no reason to push the Trail Blazers......

The next series of punishments made the reporters even more incomprehensible.

Karl Malone was only banned for two games, plus a $15,000 fine!

In addition to Malone and Stockton, only one fringe player on the Jazz bench has been suspended for three games!

The Trail Blazers' suspension is much larger......

Big Ben was banned for six games, Rashid was banned for five, and the players who rushed to the court on the bench, Xiao Ao and Bowen were not suspended, and the other two were banned for two games.

What surprised the reporter even more was that Sabonis was banned for two games, and Robinson was also banned for one!

Reporters don't understand what Stern means now?!

Favoritism for Jazz? It doesn't seem to be either, the Jazz side has all kinds of fines, and the Trail Blazers side has no additional fines.

NBA players are suspended, and they must be without salary, but the playoffs are two things to talk about......

Players who play in the playoffs are not paid, which is equivalent to free coolies, so even if they are banned, as long as there is no additional fine, the players will not be harmed in terms of interests.

If it is really biased in favor of the Jazz, it is unlikely that Stockton will be banned for up to four games!

Stockton's ban is an absolute nightmare for the Jazz!

Favoring the Trailblazers? That's even more unlikely, the Trail Blazers have more bans and more bans than the Jazz, so it doesn't look like they're favoring the Trail Blazers......

Richard, in particular, was banned for 10 games!

……

Such a ban result, if placed in the regular season, must be a light punishment, and the most of the players is only four bans......

But in the playoffs, this is quite a serious punishment, and it is entirely possible to ruin a team's chance to win the championship!

After all, in the playoffs, it doesn't make sense for you to ban twenty or thirty games, and there aren't so many games to play, and if you really ban so much, the most likely situation is that the remaining bans will be added to the regular season next season.

In Richard's case, for example, it is quite likely that it will be added to the regular season next season......

Because no matter how you look at it, it will be difficult for the Trail Blazers to play ten games in the next playoffs under this punishment!

After the official NBA press conference, the punishment results were directly communicated to the management of both teams!

On the Jazz's side, Stockton was directly angry......

In his opinion, he can be said to be a victim at all, at best, he can be banned for one game, and now he is banned for four games? Such a severe punishment is difficult for Stockton to accept.

But there was nothing he could do to change the results that had already been announced, and this was the result that Stern had announced himself......

"Jerry, what's next?" The postman Malone was pale, and he also suffered a lot of losses this time, and his chin was directly hit by Big Ben's hook, which caused him to speak a little unfavorably now......

Although there was no blood, the whole person had a blue nose and swollen face at the moment, and it looked quite miserable.

But more than that, Malone cares more about how the team can go far in the playoffs......

He and Stockton have been working together for eleven years, and this season can be said to be a good chance for them to win the title, and in a few more seasons, they will enter the end of their careers, what will they do to win the championship......

"Don't worry, Carl, judging from the results of this punishment of the Alliance, I think the Alliance still cares about our Sir Clan!"

"Stockton has been banned for six games, which is actually a bit strange, and Stern is still reluctant to give us up like this, he is giving us a chance!"

"Now it's up to us to seize this opportunity!"

Jerry Sloan frowned and said to the Utah twins in front of him.

Utah Twins have some doubts, chances? What chances, they've been banned for six games, and what other chances do you have......

"The next thing we have to do is how we can drag this round as long as we can to Game 7 and make sure we win the series!"

"Consume five of Stockton's six bans! In this way, after we break into the Western Conference Finals, we can maximize the loss of Stockton's ban! ”

Jerry Sloan said this with a smile on his face!
