Chapter 311: Ban
Regarding his expulsion, Li Kaiming was very mentally prepared.
Such a serious fight, plus this is still an away game, it is strange not to be expelled!
However, he didn't care about that, and on his last attack, he had already levelled the score and then created a penalty opportunity.
After he was ejected, Coach Sanders was able to appoint a player on the floor to complete the free throws in his place, and there was a point guard on the court who shot nearly 90 percent from the free throw line, and it was no surprise that this game was won!
Li Kaiming, who returned to the locker room, just waited for less than ten minutes, and there was footsteps in the corridor outside!
He stood up and watched his teammates rush in, followed by coach Saunders at the end of the line.
After everyone arrived, Sanders looked at Li Kaiming and sighed, "Lee, you were too impulsive on the court just now......
Li Kaiming shook his head, "Coach, I don't think it's impulsive to give my brother a head!" That Ci Shiping is about to beat Sun Yue to death! If I don't show him some color, he'll only get worse! ”
Sanders was stunned for a moment, as if what he said made some sense......
Li Kaiming suddenly remembered what was going on, and hurriedly asked, "By the way, did you win the game?" ”
The whole team was silent.
Li Kaiming was in a hurry, and was about to ask, when he suddenly reacted, "Good guy, you guys are playing me!" If it had been overtime, how could you have come back so quickly? ”
Sun Yue whispered next to him, "Kaiming, is there such a possibility, Kobe Bryant's ultra-long three-point kill?" ”
Li Kaiming was stunned for a moment, and sighed in his heart, should he ......
Just when Li Kaiming's heart was about to sink to the bottom of the sea, Rashad Lewis, who was standing in the corner, suddenly snorted and laughed!
"Ouch! Rashad, your laughter is too low! Sun Yue couldn't help but complain.
"That's right", everyone else laughed and accused Lewis of being the first to break through.
And Lewis bared his teeth and raised his hands in surrender, "I said it, I can't hold it back, you still have to play ......"
Of course, Li Kaiming understands that these guys are really working together to trick him.
"Okay, Sun Yue, you kid, I'm on the field for you, and you're still playing me? And you UAE, I didn't expect your thick-eyed and big-eyed person to mutiny, play with them! ”
The players of the Wizards immediately laughed, and perhaps only at this time could they see that Li Kaiming was just a nineteen-year-old boy.
Sanders looked at the playful players with a fatherly smile, and the atmosphere in the entire Wizards locker room was very pleasant, as if the court fight had not happened.
After a break in the dressing room, Li Kaiming followed Saunders to the post-match press conference.
As soon as he arrived at the press conference, he was blinded by a series of flashing lights!
There are already a large number of reporters waiting for the protagonist to appear.
Li Kaiming roughly swept it, and found that there were more than twice as many reporters after the game as before the game!
There are more important reasons for the post-match press conference, but more of a factor is because of the fights on the field.
The interview about Sanders came to an end quickly, and the coach of the winning side had nothing to interview in the first place.
Now comes the highlight of the post-match press conference!
Everyone paid attention to Li Kaiming!
The first to ask questions was a reporter from ESpN.
"Li, why did you take the initiative to hit Ron, is it because he injured Sun Yue in the game?"
Li Kaiming cleared his throat, "This is one of the reasons. Except for the time when he knocked Sun Yue off the field, he had done similar things before, but Sun Yue behaved very tough and was not discovered by you! ”
"On top of that, there's the foul action at the end of the game, and he used a lot of force, and if I wasn't lucky enough to jump yet, or I'm lying in the hospital right now, I can't stand this kind of action that could end my career!"
"Lee, the few moves you played with Ron on the ring look very straightforward, and they are also very powerful, we all know that Ron has been trained in the offseason, but even so you won this fight, did you specialize in related training? If so, have you ever assessed your strength? "The second question came from a reporter from Fox Sports.
This question is more interesting, and the focus is actually on Li Kaiming's fighting ability.
Li Kaiming smiled and replied unreservedly, "I did have a little bit of relevant training, but that was when I was very young, I didn't play basketball at that time, and my family knew a Huaguo master who came to Emilica to open a martial arts gym, and I practiced with him for a few years." After that, I didn't train again, but I still kept polishing my basic skills. ”
The reporters at the scene exclaimed, it turned out to be the magic of Chinese kung fu!
The Fox Sports reporter repeated his second question, "If you were asked to make an assessment of your strength, what level would you feel you were at?" ”
Li Kaiming rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, and then replied in an uncertain tone, "Probably, the level of a black belt in taekwondo?" ”
As soon as this statement came out, the entire press conference was shocked!
What level is a black belt in taekwondo?
Even the lowest level of the stage is basically at the professional level in taekwondo, which is equivalent to the level of a national athlete in other sports!
No wonder you can overturn Artest with one kick, it turns out that the strength is here!
Now everyone suddenly realized.
"Lee, do you feel regret because of this brawl?" The reporter from cbS asked.
Regarding this question, Li Kaiming's attitude is very clear, "You all know that I am a very clean person who plays ball, but my creed is that if people don't offend me, I won't offend people." So I won't regret it, our team is a whole, our relationship with each other is brothers, if someone bullies brothers, I will stand up without hesitation! ”
The last question was asked by a female reporter from tA.
"Lee, if the league were to punish you with a ban for this brawl, would you appeal to the league?"
Li Kaiming's tone softened unusually often, "I feel very sorry for what happened tonight, I know the efforts that President David Stern has put into improving the image of NbA, and I may be undermining his achievements by doing so." So, no matter what kind of punishment the league inflicts on me, I will accept it! ”
The last question was that head coach Sanders told him in advance, and Li Kaiming did think so in his heart.
If you want to get along in this league, you have to be consistent with the direction of the league to management.
Besides, after the incident, say a few soft words, give the league management a step, and the ban punishment will not be too heavy.
Besides, fighting is a bad thing, and it's not good to have a bad kid with a bad kid, and Emelica has never lacked this kind of "strong learning ability" kid.
The interview with the Wizards has come to an end, but the interview with the Lakers has come out again!
Artest did not appear at the press conference, but was blocked by a caring reporter outside the arena.
Facing the reporter's questioning, Artest put a cruel sentence into the camera, "I want to make that kid look good next time we meet!" ”
This is directly full of expectations for the next showdown between the two sides...
A few hours after the end of the game, the ban notice was issued!
Maybe it was Li Kaiming's apology at the post-match press conference that played a role, or maybe David Stern was ready to give Li Kaiming a chance.
The suspension punishment this time is very light, only one game of Li Kaiming is banned, which is the next game against the Salmento Kings!
Li Kaiming and the Wizards were basically satisfied with this result, so they did not make any response in front of the media.
And after finishing the journey at the Staples Center, the Wizards also drove directly to Saramento.
The Dec. 8 game was the first game the Wizards had without Lee this season.
Without Li Kaiming's firepower and tactics of attracting the bag, the whole team of the Wizards seemed to have lost their souls, the inner line was soft, and the outside line was constantly beating.
Li Kaiming watched the whole game live at the team's residence, and the Wizards lost 95-117 to the Kings, who are the bottom of the West, by 22 points!
In the fourth quarter, Sanders switched to the water cooler even early, and the game went into garbage time.
The best performer in the game was Bradge, who scored 23 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks on 8-of-18 shooting, and the rest of the guys were either sleepwalking or sleepwalking.
However, Sanders directly accepted his fate, and the current Wizards team does not have Li Kaiming at this level!
At this point, the Wizards' three-game road trip in the West has officially ended, winning only 1 of the 3 games, but the team that won was the strongest of the 3 opponents, which can be said to be full of drama.
After a tiring road trip, the Wizards boarded the team plane again and returned to Washington.
On December 10, they will host the New York Knicks led by Smalls, who have found their form and returned to the playoffs after an up-and-down start to the season.
However, Li Kaiming will come back in this game, so it is also full of highlights.
However, in the end, the Wizards still nibbled this hard bone 118-112 at home.
Li Kaiming played 38 minutes, shooting 14 of 22, including 2 of 5 three-pointers and 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 35 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 block.
The rest of the Wizards, especially those shooters, also found their groove after Li Kaiming's return, with Nick Young 3-of-5 from three-point range, Hinrich from 3-of-3 from three-point range, Sun Yue 1-of-2 from three-point range, and Lewis 2-of-4 from three-point range......
Now this Wizards team, with or without Li Kaiming, is completely two teams.
With Li Kaiming as an offensive weapon with full firepower, without Li Kaiming it will become a waste team that can't do anything......
