Nov. 27 is a day that Timberwolves fans who are envisioning a happy future will never want to remember, because from that day on, many things have changed the trajectory of what could have happened.

At the headquarters of the NBA in New York, David Stern sat in the conference room and looked around at everyone.

NBA Vice President Stu Jackson stood up: "Carlos Boozer has had two first-degree malicious fouls this season, accumulating 2 points (note: 1), so his second-degree malicious fouls in yesterday's game were automatically suspended for one game, after video research Carlos had punching but failed to hit Wood Lin, but there was a punching action, so we initially decided to add 2 additional bans and a fine of $35,000." ”

After a pause, Stu Jackson continued: "Wood Lin has no malicious foul record this season, yesterday's ejection for throwing punches counts as two jishu fouls, after careful study of the video, Wood Lin is not bad in nature, there is a motive to protect Kevin Garnett, we have preliminarily decided to suspend one game and fine $20,000. ”

"Everyone has heard it, and we will vote on it next, and if you disagree, you can put it forward." David Stern said, looking at the group.

The decision was soon passed, and David Stern signaled for it to be announced.

Originally, David Stern wanted to ban Linsen for two games, but David Falke's words were not bad at all, and he also intended to praise some newcomers, and Linsen was undoubtedly one of the ideal targets, and yesterday it was Boozer so David Stern changed his mind.

And David Falck also accepted such a punishment, after all, Lin Sen punched, and it was not a big deal to be banned for one game, through communication, he not only reduced David Stern from two bans to one, but more importantly, David Stern wanted to support Lin Sen's idea.

Although the NBA is a sports field, it is not very different from the entertainment industry in essence.

With the support of the alliance, just like a newcomer in the entertainment industry who is supported by a large company, it can make Lin Sen more famous and commercially valuable as soon as possible.

It's also an investment for the NBA, and both David Falke and David Stern are looking for a win-win situation.

When the NBA officially announced the punishment, Utah quit, and was punished three times for a second-degree malicious foul.

And Carlos Boozer's role for the Jazz this season is obvious, the Jazz are currently in a stage of soaring, and a three-game ban on Boozer will undoubtedly put the Jazz in a passive position in the next three games.

What's more, Linson, who swung his fist, only added a one-game suspension, and the Salt Lake City media publicly accused the NBA of official injustice.

However, the league then made public the reasons for the decision.

Although many people still feel that the punishment of Boozer is too severe, they can only swallow their anger.

For Linson, this suspension also became the first time in his NBA career that he was suspended, and it also means that Linson will miss the Timberwolves' home game against the Chicago Bulls on the 28th.

The Chicago Bulls' Achilles heel was greatly strengthened in the offseason when John Paxson snatched four-time Defensive Player of the Year Ben Wallace from the Detroit Pistons, who reached the Finals twice and won one championship.

This has made the Bulls, who are already excellent defensively, take their defensive intensity to the next level, and the team's rebounding strength has also been greatly enhanced.

It's important for a team that focuses on jump shots, and the Bulls also picked the physical Tyres Thomas in the draft.

Many media believe that the Bulls are comparable to Eastern giants such as the Detroit Pistons, Miami Heat and New Jersey Nets.

The Bulls are in good shape in the new season, slaughtering the defending champion Miami Heat with a 40-point game in the opening game of the regular season.

No one is optimistic that the Timberwolves, without Garnett and Linson, can beat the ambitious Chicago Bulls.

At the Target Center Arena on the night of the 28th, due to the absence of Linson and Garnett, the number of spectators in attendance hit a new low since the start of the new season.

Before the game began, reporters in the locker room in Chicago were conducting pre-game interviews.

Soon after the start of the new season, the media boldly speculated that the best rookie would be chosen between the two, and as a rookie in the same class as Lin Sen Roy, he was naturally reluctant to accept the role of accompanying the prince to study.

Even more unfortunate is undoubtedly the top-five picks, who are often asked by reporters if they regret their selection in the draft.

And the rookies of the same class are often compared with Lin Sen Roy, and no one feels uncomfortable.

One of them is Tyrus Thomas, a rookie with high hopes for his physical prowess from Chicagoans, who is being questioned by the media.

"Wood, he should be glad he was sitting on the sidelines, or I'd have given him a nightmare tonight." Tyrus Thomas said confidently as he looked at the reporter in front of him.

When the reporter relayed Tyrus Thomas's words to Lin Sen, Lin Sen said with a smile: "Yes, he should be glad that he will not accept my trial because I sit on the sidelines, and he should think about how to increase the playing time, which is a loyal suggestion from a rookie in the same class." ”

After hearing the media's reply, Tyrus Thomas vowed that he would use his performance to hit back at Lin Sen.

For the first time in his NBA career, Lin Sen sat on the sidelines, wearing big black-rimmed glasses and a slim Giorgio Armani suit, and he didn't look like a player.

With Linson sidelined, Devin Casey put Mike James and Ricky Davis in the starting lineup for the first time.

Even though Mike James and Ricky Davis played hard, scoring 25 and 24 points respectively, the team's disparity nullified their efforts.

However, Tyrus Thomas, who said cruel words before the game, performed really well, and the Timberwolves without Garnett really had no way to take him inside, and Thomas, who played 20 minutes, scored 12 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks.

"It's his luck this time, and the next time I'm waiting for him in Chicago, I'll let everyone know that I'm worthy of the team." Tyrus Thomas said in high spirits after the game.

The defeat to the Timberwolves was expected for a long time, but Garnett's one-month break is the real pain begins, and when it comes to Zuihou, they can only put their expectations on Linson, who is still a rookie.

"The Timberwolves' Only Bet - Rookie Forest" - "ESPN".

"Minnesota's losing streak is coming? - Los Angeles Times.

"Wood Lin, Alone or Pressure Fails" -- San Francisco Chronicle.

The media is generally not optimistic about the prospects of the Timberwolves in the coming month, and it is unanimously agreed that the Timberwolves will have a hard time losing Garnett, and rookie Linson will also be discounted by the loss of Garnett's protection.

Even some Lin Hei directly believed that Lin Sen's performance after leaving Garnett's protection was the one that echoed Lin Sen's true strength.

"Everybody doesn't think highly of you." David Falck's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Yes, they don't think very well of me."

"But you can have unlimited firing rights and you can play as you please, which is a rare opportunity for you."

Lin Sen naturally knew that this was an opportunity, he also led Wake Forest alone last year, but after all, it was the NCAA and not the NBA, and he didn't know the bottom but wanted it at the same time.
