NBA villain

Chapter 199 Influence
Stern studied the video and quickly gave a penalty, and the severity of the penalty was unique in the entire history of the league.

The fan who threw the drink, John Green, was banned for life from the Detroit Pistons' arena, and several players, including Artest, were banned from the game.

Artest was banned for the rest of the season, including 73 regular season games and the playoffs, for a total loss of $499.5 million, Stephen Jackson was banned for 30 games, O'Neal was banned for 25 games, Johnson was banned for 5 games, Miller 1 game; Ben Wallace was banned for 6 games, and Billups, Coleman, and Campbell were suspended for 1 game each; more than a dozen guards in the Palace of Auburn Hills were fired.

This penalty is simply devastating for the Pacers. The entire Pacers lost half of their starting players, and the next time Artest sees him on the court is already next season.

Yang Di sweated secretly, and shifted his position with Artest in his heart. If he was in that position and the fans threw drinks at him, would he be able to hold back?
The answer is definitely not.

Maybe they will be more ruthless, and there are definitely more than two people who entered the hospital.

Therefore, such a severe punishment by the league, in addition to targeting such a thing, also has the meaning of deterring a violent player like Yang Di.

This event can be said to be the biggest event that happened in the entire NBA in 04, and it has attracted great attention all over the world. At the same time, it is completely comparable to major events such as football and tennis. It's all negative attention, which has caused some bad effects.

That night, the Warriors had a home game against the Memphis Grizzlies.

In the afternoon, new aid John Salmons completed his physical examination and came to the team to report. Today will also be his first appearance on behalf of the Warriors.

"Welcome, welcome." Richardson took the lead in applauding. Although Salmons is also a shooting guard, he plays the role of a second-tier attacker in the Warriors. The core of the team and the starting players are not comparable.

The dark Salmons touched his head and smiled, and high-fived Yang Di and others one by one.

"Ron was banned for 73 games all of a sudden. God, he won't even get a penny of salary this season." Dunleavy clicked his tongue. As a good-looking player, he didn't understand what happened yesterday. conflict.

"This guy has a really bad temper." Yang Di sighed for the Pacers. The Pacers have been able to compete for the championship for the past two years.

"It's just a pity that Reggie Miller, he is 39 years old and has spent No. 18 seasons in the Pacers." Richardson admires Reggie Miller, who is the representative of the league's evergreen tree, although he I am a Jordan fan.

"There are rumors that Miller will choose to retire after this season."

"The problem is that the Pistons have hardly received any blows. If the Pacers enter the playoffs, it may be difficult to hinder the Pistons. It should be said that it is difficult to have a team in the entire Eastern Conference that can stop the Pistons."

"No, there is another team that is also very strong." Yang Di shook his head and his eyes flashed.

"Which team?"

"Heat with O'Neal."

Everyone nodded. The Heat were indeed accidentally forgotten. In terms of strength, as long as there is O'Neal's team, it can basically be said to be a championship-level team.

This chat lasted until the evening, and it can only be said that the impact of the Palace of Auburn Hills was too great.

That night, the Grizzlies arrived at the Oakland Arena on time.

Paul Gasol reached a six-year, $6 million contract extension with the Grizzlies in the summer. With this contract, he became the second most expensive international player in the entire NBA. The most expensive international player is the Mavericks Dirk Nowitzki.

But not long after the start of the game, Gasol suffered from injuries and is now on the team's injury list.

灰熊之前战绩不少，3胜6负排在西部No.12的位置，而3胜3负的勇士凭借着百分之50的胜率暂时排在西部第8的位置。

Also only won three games, it can only be said that the Warriors benefited from the easy schedule.

Grizzlies head coach Hubie Brown ranks out PG Jason Williams, SG Bunch Wells, SF Shane Battier, PF Smyrol Swift, C Lorenzen White Such a lineup.

Without Pau Gasol, the Grizzlies quickly dropped a notch. It has to be said that the Spaniard has extremely outstanding tactics and the ability to act like a natural lubricant. A player who is the cornerstone of the team.

Yang Di knows how difficult Gasol is.

He played as a substitute for the Heat for a season last season. The most uncomfortable star he defended in his impression was the spider-like Kevin Garnett, and the player he couldn't defend at all was Pau Gasol.

So he has been thinking about fighting Gasol again to see how much his defense has improved, but he didn't expect to have such an opportunity.

It's a pity~
But even if there is no Pau Gasol, there is "White Chocolate" Jason Williams who is in his prime, such a ghost-like figure, and the 26-year-old Sean Battier, the league can attack and defend well The representative of the small forward, and the remaining three muscular devils who can run and jump.

On the books, the Grizzlies and the Warriors are not much different.

But in the first quarter, the fans of the Grizzlies discovered a huge problem, that is, Lorenzen White alone couldn't hold down Yang Di.

Adding Swift is useless. The rebounding ability of these two people is very average. Compared with Yang Di, the gap seems to be particularly magnified.

杨迪5分钟里狂抢了6个篮板球，勇士15比7领先了8分。

The old coach Hubie Brown looked livid and became furious after calling a timeout.

Back from the timeout, the Grizzlies shrunk inside to protect the rebound with 5 players, and Sean Battier made a three-pointer, narrowing the score gap slightly.

The tonnage-type outside line Bunch-Wells hit Richardson with a low back, turned around and killed.

"Snapped!"

Yang Di slanted out and knocked down the ball with a hot pot.

He didn't block shots in the last game, so he immediately made up for it in this game. A team like the Grizzlies who are not good at outside shooting and like to kill inside is simply a good time to block shots.

At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors lead the Grizzlies 25 to 19 by 6 points.

In the second quarter, the Grizzlies replaced Cardinal, Dengtai-Jones and others. Among them, shooting guard Dengtai-Jones was still a rookie last year. He probably met Yang Di, who was also in the 03 class. point.

The Warriors' John Salmons performed very mediocre, missing two consecutive shots, one after another, the Grizzlies even tied the score.

Until the main players of the two sides switched back to the field, and then the two teams had a 45 tie before halftime.

In the second half, Yang Di blocked Swift's floater and ignited the morale of the Warriors. With the support of the audience, the Warriors played a wave of 8-0 and directly stopped the Grizzlies.

At the age of 24, young and energetic, no one will obey anyone.

Off the court, Pau Gasol had complex eyes, looking at Yang Di, who was overwhelmed and wanton, wishing to take off his suit and play the game by himself.

The Warriors opened up this quarter and opened up a 10-point gap, laying the foundation for victory.

最终，勇士主场100比89赢下了比赛，杨迪全场出战33分钟，得到19分17个篮板和4个盖帽。

In addition, the best performer was Richardson, who scored 15 points on 11 of 27 shots and completed a rare high-quality scoring show.
