Chapter 127 Angry Stern!
"Tony, Kendrick, great job! You beat up those Pistons guys!"

"Next time if you encounter this kind of thing, don't be polite, just come at me!"

Stern: Young man, your idea is very dangerous! If everyone thinks like you, will the internationalization of the NBA be necessary?
Perkins and Tony both nodded in agreement.

As the soul of the team, Pierce also spoke up at this time: "We are a whole. No matter it is Lin, Tony, or Mehmet, as long as someone is bullied, we will never back down! The next time we meet the Pistons, we will defeat them!"

"Break the Pistons!"

Everyone stood up and answered.

Lin Yu could clearly feel that after this incident, the Celtics were more united as a whole!

On the other hand, Larry Brown started to pass the buck again.

"Regarding today's win or loss, I actually don't want to talk about it."

"When a team loses two players in the starting lineup and the opponent has a complete starting lineup, it is indeed difficult to win the game."

"Coach Larry, are you saying that the Celtics conspired against the Pistons to win today?"

Although Larry Brown meant this implicitly, he couldn't admit it!

After all, it was Rasheed Wallace who committed the first foul.

"That's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that today's defeat was not caused by the Pistons."

"And I'm suggesting to the league that the Celtics players should be severely punished."

"If Perkins hadn't come off the bench and attacked my players, the situation wouldn't have escalated further."

What does it mean to avoid the important and focus on the trivial? ?

Larry Brown gave the most perfect interpretation.

Anyway, I never mentioned the issue of Rashid. If you asked me, I would say it was the Celtics' problem.

When Rivers brought Pierce and Lin Yu to the press conference.

Reporters now began to ask the three people questions about today's conflict.

After all, Rivers' statement was more official, while Lin Yu and Pierce started to pass the buck.

What you are asking is that Rashid pushed Lin Yu, which led to the conflict, and the main responsibility lies with Rashid.

When Lin Yu was asked by reporters why he performed the throat-slitting ceremony.

This is Lin Yu’s answer.

"This is just a response to the Pistons fans insulting our victory!"

"We did not cause the conflict on the pitch and we were in the upper hand at the time."

"Even without this conflict, I believe the Celtics will still be the final winner."

"We fought hard for the entire game, but were questioned by the Pistons fans that we won by underhanded means, so I naturally had to fight back!"

Lin Yu's words were well-reasoned.

The next day, Lin Yu’s words and the Palace of Auburn Hills incident made headlines in major sports sections of Beauty Home.

ESPN: Palace of Auburn Hills incident! Four people were suspended!

Sports Illustrated: Lin Yu presented a throat-slitting gift! A brawl broke out at the Palace of Auburn Hills!

Los Angeles Times: Defending honor or provocation? After the Auburn Hills Palace incident, Lin Yu offered a throat-slitting ceremony!

……

This incident has also sparked heated discussions among countless fans online.

""Pistons fans are so nasty! Lin Yu did a great job!"

"I used to think the Pistons were a strong team, but now I see they are such a rubbish team that they have a hard time beating the Celtics."

"Upstairs, did you watch the game? Lin Yu blew up the Pistons' inside line by himself. It's not that the Pistons are bad, it's that Lin Yu is too good!"

"Let's not talk about whether Lin Yu is strong or not. Aren't the Pistons known as the Iron Blooded Army? Why was there only one person helping Rashid during the fight?"

"Don't tease me, you bullshit Iron Blood Army. If you can't beat them, just push them. What else can you do except commit a foul?" "..."

Netizens are relatively fair and objective.

After all, it wasn't the Celtics who were wrong this time, but the Pistons who started the trouble first.

New York, NBA headquarters.

bump!
Stern slammed the newspaper in his hand heavily on the table.

"Shame! This is a shame for the NBA!"

"How do the outside world view our NBA now? They will say it is a sport for barbarians! If you can't beat them, then foul!"

"If this continues, can the NBA still be internationalized?!"

“Longguo’s market has just been opened, and this has happened. This time there must be a heavy penalty!

"Severe punishment! Especially for Rasheed Wallace who was the first to push!"

Stern is so angry now!
It was not easy to open up the market in Longguo with the help of Lin Yu.

In four games, Lin Yu was almost defeated!
This is crazy...

It just so happens that he has long been annoyed with the Pistons, a ratings killer, so let's deal with them together this time!

Rashid: ???

The old man would rather be a human being!
I just pushed Lin Yu down, and then my nose was broken, and you still want to punish me severely! ?
Stern: I'm going to punish you! What can you do?
then……

That afternoon, the league announced penalties against the Pistons and Celtics.

Rasheed Wallace was suspended for 20 games and fined $3.

Perkins was suspended for 15 games and fined $2 because he came off the bench.

Tony Allen was suspended for 12 games and fined $2 for breaking Rasheed's nose.

'Little Prince' Prince was also suspended for 12 games and fined $2 for his involvement in the fight.

After this penalty was announced, the entire league was shaken!
The four were suspended for a total of 59 games, which was the largest fine in the NBA before the punishment for the original Palace of Auburn Hills incident.

There is no other like it!

At the same time, this riot once again sounded the alarm for the alliance's security work. In this incident, due to unfavorable security measures, the situation was further escalated.

As a result, more than a dozen guards at the Palace of Auburn Hills were fired.

It is also because of this that many teams throughout the league have begun to restrain their players and not to cause trouble.

After the penalty was announced, Lin Yu also found Tony and Perkins and helped them pay the fine.

After resting for a night in Detroit, Lin Yu and others boarded a plane to Indiana.

The Pacers are also one of the favorites to win the championship this season.

O'Neal, who ranked third on the MVP list last season.

Artest, who ranked sixth on the MVP list last season and also won the Defensive Player of the Year award.

In addition, the Spurs traded for small forwards Stephen Jackson and Gary Payton during the offseason, who helped them win the championship.

The strength of this Pacers team is definitely among the top three in the Eastern Conference.

It can be said that this is also an absolute battle between the two strong teams.

And just when Lin Yu got off the plane.

jingle!

The cell phone rang, and Lin Yu saw that it was Dayao and subconsciously answered the call.

Then Dayao's voice came from the phone.

　The system is screwing up. This chapter should be placed after the next one. Sorry!
