Chapter 309: Expulsion from the field
Before Stevenson could come to his senses, he was punched in the face by someone else, and he took several steps back, and sat on the ground with his butt, his head buzzing, and his nose felt as if it had been flattened, and he wiped it with his hand, and it was a shocking red.

He shook his head and tried to open his eyes, and what he saw was the Trail Blazers' No. 3 jersey and an angry yellow face.
It was Ye Feng who threw that punch.
He knew what the consequences were, but he knew how hard Roy worked in training and how desperate he was in recovery, so he couldn't tolerate Stevenson shattering Roy's hopes. Although he didn't see the collision between the two sides, the fool knew that Stevenson must have done something shady, and judging by his performance throughout the game, that possibility was almost 100 percent.
So he almost didn't hesitate to knock Stevenson to the canvas with one punch. The movement here also attracted the attention of many people, such as the players on both sides and the referee, and several people from the Pioneers hurriedly stepped forward to pull Ye Feng to prevent him from having any radical behavior, although they were also very angry, but the matter had already happened, and no more people should be involved. The Mavericks' players formed a wall in front of Stevenson, glaring at Ye Feng one by one, Ye Feng glared back without fear, if it weren't for your people who were chattering crookedly and playing black hands throughout the game, Lao Tzu would punch him without mercy?
Of course, McMillan knew why Ye Feng did this, Ye Feng had always behaved very gently, but it seemed that there was still a violent side in his bones. This time, it seems that Stevenson really annoyed him, otherwise he would not have put the interests of the team and retaliated against the opponent in his own way. Having said that, McMillan still has some headaches, and he has to pay for the youthfulness of the top brand, such as the next few wins. The NBA has always cracked down on court violence, and it is a sure thing that Ye Feng received a ticket, and the only thing that cannot be determined is how big this ticket is.
But now that the protagonist is the referee, he did not hesitate to send Ye Feng off the court and motioned him to stay in the locker room, and Stevenson couldn't play anymore, Carlisle had to be replaced. Roy has been carried to the bench by his teammates, and the team doctor will conduct a brief examination first, and it is obvious that he will not be able to continue playing. The two sides quickly completed the substitution, Carlisle replaced Barria and Kidd to form a double point guard, and McMillan replaced Matthews and Batum to replace Roy and Ye Feng respectively.
Until the end of the game, there was a lot of anger on both sides, and the Trail Blazers players felt a little disdainful of this kind of player because they heard about some of Stephenson's small moves, and incidentally disgusted the whole Mavericks; The Mavericks players were indignant at Ye Feng's unscrupulous use of court violence, no matter what the reason, it was wrong to do it on the court anyway. Both sides had their own ideas, which reflected in the fact that the game was not compromised, and in the end, the Trail Blazers still struggled to take the victory away from the road, and Aldridge scored 037 points and 10 rebounds to become the hero of the team's victory.
However, the player representing the Trail Blazers at the post-game press conference was not him, but Ye Feng. For this arrangement, McMillan deliberately communicated with him, and the most important thing now is to minimize the responsibility on his side, and not to let Ye Feng be punished too heavily, the press conference is obviously a good time to make a statement. Aldridge understands this, he is not a player who likes to be competitive and has vanity, and he also knows that Ye Feng is the person who needs to speak out the most now, and the press conference is like that, so he might as well go to the locker room to eat something.
When McMillan and Ye Feng walked into the venue one after the other, Carlisle was still waving his arms and spitting indignantly: "Ye completely subverted my impression of Chinese players, I can hardly imagine that there are thugs like him among the Chinese, yes, you heard it right, it is a thug." As a professional player, he should know what he can and can't do on the court, he is humiliating the entire Trail Blazers team, I suggest that the league seriously investigate and deal with such on-court violence, and give an explanation to victims like us! ā
Some reporters have begun to notice McMillan and Ye Feng who entered the stadium, and as soon as Carlisle said this, most people looked at Ye Feng who was walking behind, but Ye Feng completely ignored their gaze and followed his head coach on the stage with an expressionless face. Carlisle left the venue in a rage, and while he wasn't necessarily as angry as he might seem, he had to make a gesture that would have garnered more support.
Now the entire venue belonged only to the pioneers, and the reporters raised their hands and began to ask questions before the press officer could signal.
"Ye, why did you inflict court violence on Stevenson? It feels like he didn't mess with you in this game. ā
"This is the first time in your career that you've been ejected and you're going to be fined and suspended, how do you feel?"
"As far as I know, Chinese players, like Yao and Yi, have been very gentle in the game, and the Chinese have always been relatively low-key, and what you do seems to discredit your compatriots, do you have anything to say about that?" Maybe you can whitewash yourself a little ......"
Ye Feng's expression was very calm, as if the reporters' questions were all gentle, he looked at McMillan beside him, McMillan nodded, and motioned for him to speak for himself, which was also what they had discussed before. Ye Feng knocked on the microphone, and after confirming that there was no problem, he said very seriously:
"I know it's wrong to be violent against someone in a match, but I don't regret it, and I'm going to punch that bastard in the face if I had to do it all over again. If you can interview Brandon, you'll know what Stevenson did to him in the game, and I dare say that as long as you're a slightly bloody player, you can't stand a guy who spews trash in your ear and causes you trouble with small gestures. ā
"I admire Brandon's courage and forbearance, but I can't bear it, especially when Stevenson takes him down with small gestures, and it's likely that Brandon won't be able to fight with us for a long time, and I think Stevenson has a lot of responsibility for that. No matter what kind of punishment the league throws at me, I'll take it and reflect on myself, but hopefully the league will also have some rules to limit bastards like Stevens, and we're not here to let the opponent take us down with impunity! ā
