Chapter 925: Arrow in the Knee

On Oct. 12, the Warriors were ready to leave for Hong Kong after their final game on the mainland.

But before that, Chamberlain had to take a slow step, because the Dragons and the Brazilian men's basketball team were going to play a friendly match in Beijing, and he and Yao Ming were invited to watch the game as guests because they were both in the mainland, but they didn't have to participate.

Originally, where to rest is also to rest, in line with this principle, Chamberlain and Yao Ming did not dislike this arrangement, and came to the Wukesong Gymnasium early that day.

With the Dragons winning the gold medal at the World Championships, Chamberlain and Yao Ming almost became national heroes, and they almost detonated the atmosphere when they appeared, but the fans were naturally disappointed to learn that the two of them would not play.

At that time, Chamberlain and Yao Ming did not pay attention to the emotional problems of the fans, and as a result, this laid the groundwork for a conflict.

Chamberlain, Yao Ming came to the scene but did not play, Yi Jianlian did not come back in the United States, this dragon team is almost a second-tier team to play, so the Basketball Association did not put any pressure on the team before, as long as it is not too ugly to lose, they understand that now this bird team cannot win the Brazilian team that can be entangled with the dream team in the group stage in the Turkish World Championships.

Although, this Brazilian team is also a second team.

Little Nelson naturally stayed as the coach of the national team, and he sent Ding Jinhui, Zhang Qingpeng, Zhu Fangyu, Sun Yue, and Wang Zhizhi to the starting lineup.

At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team had the ball, Wang Zhizhi acted as the pillar of the inside line when Yao Zhang was away, he used a skillful basket to turn and score in the two-man bag, Chamberlain and Yao Ming stood up and applauded vigorously.

Just 15 seconds later, Zhang Qingpeng was knocked to the ground by his opponent in defense, and the referee was close at hand, but he made a defensive foul.

Chamberlain was at the scene, and he was in the first row, so he naturally saw that this punishment was problematic, so he shook his head at Yao Ming and said, "Isn't this blowing indiscriminately?" ”

Yao Ming was still a little more low-key, just frowning and leaning back in the seat and pouting continuously, while Chamberlain got up and shouted to the referee: "Look at the replay, sir, it's not good for you to play without glasses, right?" ”

Chamberlain protested, and the fans suddenly broke out, originally because they couldn't see Chamberlain and Yao Ming on the field, the fans were very dissatisfied, and now this kind of penalty result came out, and the fans began to shout 'black whistle, I bought a watch last year' and the like.

Nelson Jr. rushed to the sidelines to protest to the referee, the referee was sent by the international basketball world, but he would not give them face, and then gave Nelson Jr. a technical foul.

But this moment completely angered Nelson Jr., although he withdrew from the field, he kept roaring and extended his middle finger to the referee.

The Brazilian players didn't know the priority of the matter, and someone actually gave the middle finger to Nelson Jr. to fight back, and Nelson Jr. was angry, rushed out of the crowd, ran to the technical table and smashed the table, asking the rostrum to intervene in the game.

The referee had to give Nelson Jr. a technical foul again, and the on-site announcer announced that Nelson Jr. had two technical fouls and was expelled from the game.

However, later, after deliberation on the technical desk, the second technical foul was counted on the leader's head, and Nelson Jr. was able to continue to coach the game.

The game continued, the smell of gunpowder was still very strong, the Chinese team missed the outside shot, Zhu Fangyu made physical contact with the opponent when he was scrambling for a rebound, the ball flew to the side, Zhu Fangyu also bumped sideways towards the opponent, and a group fight began.

At this time, the timer showed that there were 8 minutes and 54 seconds left until the end of the first quarter, that is, 1 minute 06 seconds before the start of the game.

Chamberlain originally thought that this was the end of the matter, but when he saw Zhu Fangyu crashing into a player of the Brazilian team, he got up and watched with attention.

It just so happened that the Brazilian player that Zhu Fangyu knocked down was the player who knocked down Zhang Qingpeng before, he thought Zhu Fangyu was deliberate, and after the two got up, they pushed Zhu Fangyu.

However, now it is on the territory of the Chinese team, and because of the technical foul problems of Zhang Qingpeng and Nelson Jr., both the players and the fans are full of resentment.

The Brazilian players pushed Zhu Fangyu, which became the fuse of the brawl, Ding Jinhui rushed to the front, and all the substitutes of the Chinese team also came on the field, and the players on both sides waved their fists, and the scene was very chaotic.

Chamberlain and Yao Ming couldn't sit on the sidelines to watch the play, the two of them went on the field one after the other to pull the frenzied Chinese team players back, Chamberlain saw that the Brazilian team was quite peeful and even moved, and he was angry for a while, rushed up and grabbed them one by one, as if throwing sandbags, grabbed them and threw them out.

Oxlade-Chamberlain's bravery intimidated the Brazilian players, and with the intervention of the security guards and coaching staff, the conflict was finally over.

After a short discussion, the players of the Brazilian team waved to the stands and prepared to leave the field, but the No. 9 and No. 6 of the Brazilian team pointed to the bench of the Chinese team and scolded uncleanly.

Seeing this, the Chinese players rushed forward, and the two sides scuffled together again, from the bottom line of the Chinese team to the bottom line of the opponent.

During the group fight, Su Wei was thrown to the ground by the opposing player, and Zhou Peng's right knee was also injured. The opponent's No. 6 player was injured on the bridge of his nose and had a long nosebleed. The brawl lasted nearly five minutes, and the Brazilian team fled back to the locker room under police escort.

The departure of the Brazilian team caused dissatisfaction among the fans at the stadium - they were not dissatisfied with not watching the game, but dissatisfied with the lack of beating the Brazilian players.

Of course, the Organizing Committee of the Basketball Association hopes that the game can continue, as long as the two sides shake hands and make peace, then this matter is nothing, and the Chinese men's basketball team has encountered similar things before.

It was the warm-up match for the Chinese men's basketball team in preparation for the 2001 Asian Championships in Shanghai, when the Chinese men's basketball team was against an American star team.

The incident started when Li Nan clashed with a black player on the opposing side, and the Chinese team served the baseline ball in the opponent's half, and Li Nan and the defenders of his team squeezed together to get into the position, and then friction ensued. Then in the next round, Gong Xiaobin was directly knocked down by the opponent on a layup, and then the two sides clashed.

In the end, the U.S. team hid back in the lounge, and one of the assistant coaches of the Chinese men's basketball team at that time was also Nelson Jr., who went out to the lounge to invite the U.S. team who ran to avoid it.

That time, the two sides could be said to have neither played nor knew each other, and the players had dinner and played together after the game, and the Basketball Association and the General Administration of Sports turned a blind eye to this matter.

Nelson Jr. was still on the floor this time, but apparently he had no place in the minds of the Brazilian men's basketball players, and the negotiations lasted 10 minutes and still did not come out.

It didn't take long for Zhang Qingpeng, who was in a very unwell physical condition, to be sent to the hospital for examination, so that the game would have to end without termination.

At 8:10 p.m., Chamberlain, as the representative of the Chinese team, came to the locker room of the Brazilian team to negotiate, and the front of the dressing room of the Brazilian team was full of armed police with shields in hand, and their team leader strongly asked the armed police to escort them away.

Chamberlain stopped the team leader and said with a pleasant face: "Sir, basketball games inevitably collide muscles, no one is happy when this happens, I am sorry for my teammates' previous gaffes......"

"No need to apologize, it's useless to apologize now, you barbarians, butchers, scoundrels! It's impossible for us to go back to the arena and play against you again, unless you all get down on your knees and beg us, that's a possibility! The Brazilian team leader said proudly.

Chamberlain didn't know that Brazil's domestic political situation was chaotic, and some powerful underworld controlled some departments, and this time the leader of the men's basketball team was a gangster.

But anyway, this guy's words angered Chamberlain, he directly pushed the team leader, entered the locker room and found their head coach, and said bluntly: "Sir, it's normal for small frictions to occur in the game, and I still shake hands and make peace between the two of us......"

It's not that the players don't know Chamberlain's awesomeness, anyway, the coaching staff and players of the Brazilian team have to give Chamberlain face.

However, the gangster leader didn't want to give Chamberlain face, and he punched Chamberlain in the back after rushing in.

Chamberlain has never encountered this kind of thing, although there are many small actions in the basketball game, but after all, the stars are famous and faceless, and it is impossible to hurt people behind their backs, so he was unprepared before.

He was defenseless before, but now that he has been beaten, it goes without saying that Chamberlain is not the kind of good boy who knocks out his teeth and swallows blood, especially now on his turf, he knows that as long as he does it, he will not be able to suffer.

A group of riot police outside, and he, Chamberlain, is a national hero, and the leader of those people can watch him being beaten and unable to do anything? If those leaders really dare to do this, for sure, they will have to go to the traffic police together tomorrow to check the license plate.

So, Chamberlain turned around and slapped the team leader, who had also practiced boxing, so he dared to be so arrogant.

But he didn't know that Chamberlain's combat power could come a few times even if he was put into a martial artist, and this slap was fast and ruthless, and it directly slapped the gangster leader away!

Outside the door, little Nelson saw that the two sides were fighting again, and immediately found someone to go back to inform the players, copy the bench, enter the away team's locker room, and beat people!

On the court, in order to stabilize the fans, except for the injured Zhang Qingpeng and Zhou Peng, all the other players of the Chinese team played and were divided into the red team and the black team for intra-team teaching matches.

On Nelson's instructions, the players immediately threw down the ball and rushed into the tunnel with murderous spirit. The fans didn't know exactly what was going on, but they knew that the players were definitely not going to shake hands, so the group broke through the security guards and followed them into the players' tunnel.

It didn't need the help of his teammates, Chamberlain took care of the opponent alone, and the players of the Brazilian team didn't dare to make a move, just stood up and pretended to be around Chamberlain.

When the Chinese team players arrived, the explosion-proof armed police officers all pulled out rubber rods, and the captain who led the team over there was shouting: "...... If these dogs dare to touch Chamberlain, they can do it for me! , the small tree is not repaired, it is not straight, and the person does not repair it......"

The gangster leader brought a few younger brothers, and these people were even more resistant, and Chamberlain saw them surrounding him, and he grabbed his fist and beat them hard.

The Brazilian coach is not afraid of Chamberlain now, he is afraid of those explosion-proof armed police, but as the Chinese team players and fans roll in, he has to thank the armed police, if it is not for the armed police blocking the door, the Brazilian team players may be left without bones.

At this moment, even the gang leader was frightened, and he finally understood that this was not in Rio de Janeiro, where the guns were chaotic, but in authoritarian China, and he honestly hid in the locker room and did not dare to move.

In the end, under the leadership of the armed police, the Brazilian team got on the bus and went to the hotel.

But the matter is not over yet, even the Brazilian players are hungry, and when they return to the hotel, they ask the kitchen to prepare meals.

But at this time, the news about the brawl had already been broadcast, and the hotel also knew that these Brazilian teams were preparing to beat Chamberlain in the locker room!

Chamberlain's reputation in China is not ordinarily loud, and with him leading the team to win the Olympic silver medal and the World Championships gold medal, he has risen to the same height as Yue Fei and Qi Jiguang in the hearts of the Chinese people.

The hotel said that it would not give them food, and if it chirped, then get out of the hotel, and it will not be accepted.

The Brazilian team was almost angry, and they could only find KFC contact information to deliver food, they didn't dare to go out, and the fans who heard the news slowly surrounded the hotel, and the head coach of the Brazilian team had to call the embassy overnight to ask for asylum.

Oxlade-Chamberlain was unhappy with the game, after which he quickly called a press conference in which he said: "I tend to get muddy sometimes, but I've been trying to restrain myself because I'm a public figure now and I need to set an example for the kids and the fans." ”

"Tonight, I was so impulsive because I didn't have any respect for my opponents, they were unprofessional opponents, they weren't really national teams, and I had absolutely say in that, I just came back from Turkey, where we stayed with the Brazilian national team for a long time, and although we didn't play against each other, we knew each other very well, and this time, I didn't meet a familiar face."

"Also, we can use the footage to prove their brutal behaviour in the first two games, and I'm sorry that our referees didn't protect our own players in time for the game and they wanted to hurt them."
