The Brooklyn Nets, who played at home, successfully defeated the visiting Chicago Bulls, and the core of the Nets, who scored a game-high 40 points plus 9 rebounds and 5 assists, first affirmed the excellent performance of his teammates at the post-game press conference, and then suddenly publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the Chicago Bulls' defense.

"I know they've always been tough defensively, but Butler, Hinrich and Noah's defensive moves are not just basketball moves, Butler even has a neck lock when he defends me on breakouts, maybe five minutes into the fourth quarter, you can check it, it's very dangerous," the tall man said, pointing to the numerous bruises on his arms and neck, to the reporters in the audience.

It was precisely because of Gao Dazhuang's speech that the players on both sides suddenly fell into a "scolding war" turmoil.

When the words reached the ears of the Bulls' Jimmy Butler, he immediately launched a counterattack: "I don't think a good player like Tall and Strong should say something like that, we both want to win the game, so it's difficult to get an easy layup, and intense physical confrontation is inevitable." ”

"I didn't try to lock him up" Jimmy Butler defended himself, "I just fouled him, but it wasn't intentional."

"I was going for the ball and I ended up fouling and when he fell, it looked like I was locking him up and no one was trying to hurt him, and I was really shocked when he said that, but I thought maybe that's part of the game," Jimmy Butler said in an interview with reporters, as the playoffs approach. It was inevitable that there would be a fierce physical confrontation in this match.

"It's our duty to defend Butler and Strong," Bulls guard Hinrich said in an interview: "As for what he said about me and Butler and Noah, I think it's really crazy, to say that Butler hugged him that time, in fact, he was originally going for the ball, even if he hugged him later, it wasn't really to hurt him on purpose, but to prevent him from getting easy layups, Tall and Strong is a very dominant player, so I have to find a way to slow him down, but again." We didn't mean to hurt him. ”

"We can't play like women. We've got to play our own style of play," Bulls center Joakim Noah wrote in a somewhat "defiant" "provocative" way of writing on Werther: "Maybe a player thinks we're playing a little tougher, but that's our style of score."

In the face of Noah's deliberate provocation, the Brooklyn Nets players certainly won't rest on their laurels, and Kenneth Faried spoke out on Werther: "Isn't 40 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists enough? We wouldn't mind doing it again! ”

"Fighting on the pitch is also a style? Speaking of fights, though. We've never been scared" Lance Stephenson @Joaquin-Noah directly on Werther.

Except for the players. Brooklyn Nets head coach Johnson also looked very angry. And openly cry out for love.

"We know very well how the opponent is going to deal with the big man in the game, just stop him at all costs, and a lot of the time. The end result is a serious foul, and at that point, I'm totally for being tall and strong, but at the same time, we don't need any help from others and we're not afraid of anything that the opponent will use," Coach Johnson said in an interview with The New York Times.

"We're going to continue to be aggressive on the court, and our players are going to attack the basket with determination without breaking the rules of the game," Coach Johnson continued.

When asked what to do if the opponent moves more and more, Coach Johnson was very clear - to fight violence with violence.

"If the opponent insists on doing that, then we're going to keep throwing the problem at the referee because there's going to be a lot of intense physical collisions," said Johnson added: "We're going to keep attacking and in this situation, getting free throws is a no-brainer, so we don't have to rely on other people's help." ”

Gao Dazhuang's comments about the Bulls' defensive moves were "a thousand waves with one stone", initially just a shouting between the players of the two teams, and then even Danny Ainge, the general manager of the third-party Boston Celtics, joined in, who pointed out that Gao Dazhuang's complaints were "humiliating" in an interview with reporters.

"We have to adapt to the defensive intensity of the opponent and we can't complain because that would look humiliating," Danny Ainge, the general manager of the Boston Celtics, said on an ESPN TV show.

However, Gao Dazhuang did not respond directly to the words of third-party team manager Danny Ainge, but said euphemistically: "I once watched the Lakers game, when many teams would implement the 'slashing shark' tactic, when I saw that Shaq couldn't bear it anymore and hit back the opponent with a slightly bigger move, he might eat a technical foul, or even a malicious foul, so I'm not complaining, but I hope to expose the facts, it's the turn to fight back against the opponent, haven't we done enough?" ”

Angie's words also angered Nets general manager Billy King, who later issued a statement on the Nets' official website that clearly stated: "Angie needs TMD to shut up and manage his own team."

"Danny Ainge was the biggest softie when he was a player," Billy King added at the end.

After hearing Billy King's words, Danny Ainge also quickly responded: "We are all right, Tall and Strong should stop complaining, and I should take care of my team. ”

However, seeing the two teams' "senior figures" talking directly, the players and coaches of the Nets and Celtics also expressed their opinions on Twitter.

Deron Williams said, "Oh! OMG! That's great! ”

Coach Johnson said: "I love the direct dialogue between the general manager and the general manager! ”

Coach Rivers: "Very interesting! I think it's cool, they should have a fist conversation. ”

"I'm really looking forward to going to Boston right now," he said.

Anti-Heat fans hope that Brooklyn can attack the Miami Heat's supremacy in the East, and Heat fans are very "generous" to welcome the challenge of the Brooklyn Nets.

As the playoffs approached, teams were sprinting for a playoff spot, with competition between the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth spots in the West fierce, with the Los Angeles Lakers and Utah Jazz alternating leads.

"Lost the last game. I'm not angry, I wasn't angry tonight, as a team we just have to keep improving, we have to show when it's time to show ourselves" After the game, LeBron James gave his own summary.

Heat coach Spoelstra was full of praise for the excellent performance of the apprentice: "This is maturity, after James hit the first three three-pointers, we let him shoot, and everyone became spectators to see when his three-point show ended." ”

Wade admits that he has become a fan of James: "I'm happy that I can sit on the bench and enjoy his magical performance."

After beating the New Orleans Hornets, the Miami Heat won 16 games in March, which also broke the franchise's all-time record for a single month of wins, and more importantly, the Miami Heat secured the first place in the East 10 games ahead of schedule with this victory.

The Heat's strong performance also made James firmly occupy the top spot on the MVP list, and the NBA's official website gave James a high evaluation of his performance: "For two months in a row, LeBron did the same thing in the victory, and the same was true in the game he lost on Thursday, he dominated the court, the Heat's winning streak may be stuck at 27 games, but he continues to dominate the game on the court, and now is the perfect moment for the Heat to give the league's defending MVP some rest, and the Heat almost locked up the Eastern Conference regular season championship, There's no need for them to keep consuming LeBron before the playoffs begin. ”
